In response to a proposed amendment from Congressman Michael Turner to the House National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 4310) that, if allowed to pass, would have a devastating effect on civilian operated historic military aircraft, the Commemorative Air Force has put together a letter that will be sent to the Committee on Armed Services. CAF officials are asking pilots and aviation enthusiasts to sign the letter.
Warbird community rises to meet threat
The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) and the Warbirds of America are joining with the Commemorative Air Force, Collings Foundation, and other warbird groups in opposition of a proposed amendment to the House National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 4310) that could have a devastating effect on the fleet of civilian-operated historic military aircraft.
Code 1 Aviation premieres
A group of industry experts with more than 80 years of experience has formed a new company, Code 1 Aviation, at the Lakeland Linder Regional Airport (LAL) in Florida, home to the Sun 'n Fun fly-in, to provide maintenance, restoration, avionics, sales, training and consulting services for owners of Warbirds.
Sun 'n Fun warbirds judging suspended for 2012
A decline in recent years of participation in the warbird aircraft judging program at the Sun 'n Fun International Fly-In & Expo in Lakeland, Florida, has prompted officials to suspend the program in 2012. According to officials from the Warbirds of America, they and Sun 'n Fun officials will reevaluate the program during the one-year stand-down. WOA is seeking the input of the warbird community on the topic. You can add your input via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Stallion 51 celebrates 25th anniversary
Stallion 51 will kick off a yearlong "Silver Jubilee" commemoration at this year's Sun 'n Fun International Fly-in and Expo in Lakeland, Fla., March 27-April 1. Sun 'n Fun will dedicate Friday, March 30, to Stallion 51 in commemoration of its 25 years. Lee Lauderback, Stallion 51's president and chief pilot, will perform his signature solo Mustang routine at the beginning of the night air show that will culminate Sun 'n Fun's "Stallion 51 Day."
Where Warbirds Fly
On Saturday, Feb. 18, the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino, Calif., will host a National Warbirds Operators Conference event. From 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. there will be tours at Planes of Fame and at 5 p.m. there will be a flyover of three museum aircraft — two 2 P-51s — Wee Willy and Spam Can — and the museum's P-40. Additionally there will be visiting aircraft on display: Julie Clark's T-34 Mentor, Mike McDougall's TA-4J Skyhawk, and John Muszala's AD-5 (A-1E) Skyraider.
Want to buy a warbird?
Then Mark Clark is the man to see
When he was just 14, Mark Clark bought a life-changing ride in a Mustang. That 35-minute flight set the course for his career as a broker specializing in warbirds.
But when you ask Clark, owner of Courtesy Aircraft in Rockford, Ill., what it was about that flight that changed his life, he says what many pilots already know: It's hard to quantify just what it was that sparked such a passion.
Wings of Freedom tour to arrive at FMY
Aviation enthusiasts and history buffs will have the opportunity to tour — or take flight — in rare, historic World War II aircraft when the Collings Foundation brings its Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress "Nine-O-Nine" heavy bomber, Consolidated B-24J Liberator "Witchcraft" heavy bomber and North American Dual Control P-51C Mustang "Betty Jane" fighter to Florida's Page Field (FMY) on Wednesday, Feb. 8 through Friday, Feb.10.
LoPresti First Saturday takes off with warbirds and airshows
The first First Saturday get-together of the year at LoPresti Aviation at Sebastian Airport (X26) in Florida will feature Captain Chris Avery of The Commemorative Air Force and his Corsair.
Miss EAA's B-17 on Pawn Stars?
If you missed seeing EAA's B-17 on the Dec. 19 episode of the History Channel's hit show Pawn Stars, you haven't lost out — the show is available online through the Pawn Stars website. Richard Harrison, better known as "Old Man" on the series, and Austin Russell (Chumlee) visited Aluminum Overcast during its Oct. 11-12 tour stop at North Las Vegas Airport (VGT). George Daubner, EAA B-17 program manager, provided a ground tour, followed by a flight in the venerable bomber. Click here to watch.

CowBuzz: DeMarcus Ware Imitates Some Of His Teammates
Friday, September 20, 2013 6:00 AM CDT
DeMarcus Ware decided to have a little fun in the locker room yesterday afternoon and imitate some of his teammates. He posted this video last night on his Instagram account. Notice the only "player" in the video that has a Pro Bowl jersey on.
Not a bad job on the impersonations. Hopefully we get to see some more of these in the future from DWare. Read

One of the top priorities for Texas Tech in the 2008 class is to add one more playmaker to their commitment list. One of the prospects who is getting the full-court press right now is Camden (AR) athlete DeAnthony Curtis.Because the Red Raiders have already snagged their running back for their class in four-star standout Harrison Jeffers, Curtis is being courted strictly as a playmaker, meaning he would line up in several different positions if he were to end up in Lubbock.While it would be no small feat if Tech's coaches were to pry Curtis from the clutches of his homestate Razorbacks, they got a helping hand last week when Arkansas head coach Houston Nutt resigned, paving the way for a re-shuffling of several Arkansas commits' recruitments."I haven't really talked to anyone from the school," said the four-star athlete. "I know they're supposed to send their running backs coach down to talk to me and Lavunce (Askew). But other than that, I haven't heard anything in a while."Curtis explained that he couldn't believe his ears when he heard the news of Nutt's departure."When I heard, all I could think of was if it was for real," he explained. "I wasn't sure what to think. I mean, he's been there for so long that it's just crazy that he up and left. I mean, I'm still committed and everything, but it's just a little different now."Curtis went on to describe his official visit schedule."I do want to take my official visits for sure now though," he asserted. "I think it will be Oklahoma State and then Texas Tech for sure. That's all I know for now, there may be more. I'm not sure when I'm going to take my visits or anything, I just know that I want to get out on those visits and have a good time."Though Arkansas has kept its assistant coaches around for the time being, Curtis said he knows that's likely to change."We'll see how it goes," he said. "If the coaches all leave, then I would say I am probably open again. If that's the case I'll probably re-think the whole deal. I have until signing day to make up my mind, so I'm not in a huge hurry really." ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

Malone gives Bolts more options for Lecavalier; Oilers boost blue line
Updated: June 30, 2008, 11:30 AM ETBy Scott Burnside | ESPN.com
In what seems like a blink of an eye, the Tampa Bay Lightning have gone from hockey curiosity to mover and shaker.
Edmonton boosts blue line
In other pre-free agency news, the Edmonton Oilers took a big step toward returning to playoff contention themselves by adding veteran defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky from Los Angeles for defenseman Matt Greene and forward Jarret Stoll.
Although he had only 41 points and was minus-18 on a bad Kings team last season, ...

Hey I was just curious to know what everyone here gets for top speed on their YFZ's. Mine is an 05 and It's bone stock and the other day my buddy was following me in his Jeep Cherokee on the road and he said I was doing 75, I wasnt even bouncing off of the rev limiter in fifth, it still had more to go, all the mags say like 70. So what do you guys get (stock)?
post #2 of 12 (permalink) Old 01-17-2007, 09:08 PM
I didn't know jeeps could do 75 mph, but anyways a stock yfz should top out at around 73-74 mph
Lots of people shouldn't even own quads. Most of those people are on this site!

To those of you who are factoring in weight and mods - it has nothing to do with top speed unless you have changed tire size or gearing, your top speed is going to be limited by those two factors alone....however how quickly you get there will be directly related to mods and weight.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
I am so happy that I had my wedding at Manhattan Penthouse. I fell in love with the views from the first pictures that I saw, and the feelings continued even throughout my wedding night. Monika was amazing to work with. She was so responsive to emails and phone calls and made our planning process as smooth as it could be. I was planning my wedding from Texas, and saw my venue once prior to our reception. Monika was always willing to answer questions and help with last minute details even the week of the wedding. I couldn't have asked for a better venue or a better coordinator to work with!
Monika and Jeno are pros. They look after every detail. They have excellent ideas and great taste, and look ahead to help make the event just what you hoped for. They give you fair warning of what you need to do and when, so you're making choices in a timely way to keep the process on track. The food is superb and beautifully presented. The staff is attentive and professional. They make sure to pay attention to the guests of honor. And the whole package is reasonably priced - no surprises.
We had our wedding on a recent Sunday at Alger House. We had the pleasure of working with Monika who was incredibly on top of everything. I had communicated so many minute details with her leading up to the wedding date, and she remembered everything. She was always quick to respond to my correspondences.
The space was everything I dreamed of for our wedding. It was charming on its own but with great possibilities to add personal touches. Because we wanted our event to be an intimate event, we had about 70 guests and it was perfect. We chose to hold a daytime affair which was perfect to show off the beautiful stained glass windows and skylight. Our florist decorated a few arrangements to make it perfect. The space upstairs is also amazing - with an indoor garden, skylight, and a beautiful antique bathroom where we did most of our fun photo shoot.
We received many compliments on the food. Everything was delicious and the portions were quite big. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive all through the day. They were on top of Bride and Groom's needs, always asking for what we needed. They provided a special plate of hors d'oeurves for us upstairs during our photo shoot, well aware that once we went down to join the party, we weren't going to be able to eat during the cocktail hour.
Because they only book one event a day, we had the flexibility of getting in to the space 3 hours earlier in the morning and packing up afterwards with no pressure.
Thank you, Alger House, for such a memorable wedding! We feel so lucky to have had our wedding there!
My husband and I could not have asked for a more perfect night on our wedding! Jeno & Manhattan Penthouse crews were absolutely wonderful to work with and they went way above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was pure decadence. From the food, the service and the view are excellent! We definetely highly recommend Manhattan Penthouse to anyone who is interested in having an absolutely magical wedding experience!
From the "Mother of the Bride"
I have never posted a review online, but I have been moved to do so to compliment The Manhattan Penthouse staff and especially Monika. If you are considering an event here I think you should know that the professionalism of the staff, the care, service, attention to details,delicious food and the beauty of the room met and exceeded our expectations. Monika was attentive in all ways during our planning of the wedding and, when asked, offered suggestions that we happily took and our event went off beautifully. Our guests are still raving about the venue weeks later. Thank you to the Manhattan Penthouse and staff for making our daughter's wedding such a pleasant and special evening!
Jeno Steiner the Catering Executive at the Alger House provided excellent assistance as our contact and planner for my daughter's wedding reception. The setting was beautiful and elegant, the food delicious and the menu varied so that it accommodated guests with gluten free and/or vegetarian requests. The event went smoothly and the bride and groom and both families and guests were delighted with how the entire evening unfolded. Jeno was responsive to all our questions and contributed his professional and welcoming presence to a most elegant reception.
We had our wedding at the Alger House 3 weeks ago and were delighted with the whole experience. Jeno, our catering manager, is hands down the most responsive vendor we encountered with throughout our year-long planning process. Jeno's advice was always helpful and to-the-point, and on the day of the wedding he helped make sure everything ran smoothly-- from the processional, to the flipping of the space, to the champagne toast and beyond.
The space and quality of the food are a great value for the money, maybe even the best in the city for couples who are looking for more of an an all-inclusive venue for an intimate event. We received so many compliments from our guests on how lovely the venue was, and we also heard rave reviews about the hors d'oeuvres and food stations we chose! (We never doubted that the food would be great, though-- prior to the wedding we attended a complimentary tasting at the Manhattan Penthouse and were blown away by everything we tried.) It is still hard to believe that we were able to have such an elegant event on our decidedly not-huge budget. Thank you to Jeno and everyone at the Alger House for helping to make our wedding a truly unforgettable evening!
Manhattan Penthouse is beautiful venue with fantastic views of the Empire State Building and the Freedom Tower. The staff is experienced and professional and they worked well with all of our vendors. The food was great, we received many compliments on the menu that was served. Monika, the event coordinator and maitre d', was wonderful and was instrumental in making the day go smoothly. This is an excellent location to have a New York City wedding!
Amazing food, great service - we had the perfect wedding. Monica and her team went out of their way to ensure that our wedding party and guests were taken care of. Everyone of our 80 guests commented on how perfect the venue was. We had a great time
I cannot say enough positive things about our experience working with Monika and having our wedding at Manhattan Penthouse. My husband and I really wanted to find a unique venue that was very "New York" for our 105 person wedding, and we both knew that we had found the perfect place when we showed up to see Manhattan Penthouse.
Our wedding was this past Sunday, and the venue exceeded all of our expectations. Having our ceremony set right in front of the Empire State Building was truly a special experience, and there is really no comparison to the space when the sun sets and all you can see are city lights at every angle. Our guests raved about the food and service during cocktail hour and our menu during the reception, and everyone was raving about the space. I might be biased, but I think it was the best wedding I've been to!
My review could not be complete without a few more words about Monika - I was so impressed with her throughout the process. I don't know how she does it - I was probably her most annoying bride and was emailing her all the time, and she was always incredibly responsive. I don't think I ever had to wait longer than a few minutes for a response from her. She was incredibly patient and calming in helping us work out the details of the day - our menu, the schedule, and the little details we wanted to personalize the day. She doubles as catering director and wedding planner. On the day of - she helped set up our programs, table cards, assemble favors, corral our guests, coordinate our ceremony, and work with our DJ to ensure every detail of our day went off exactly as she wanted. She was there throughout the evening, pouring me champagne and making sure we were happy. You will not regret working with her or choosing MP as your venue!
Alger House was a dream venue for our October wedding reception --- lovely, classic, warmly intimate, tastefully decorated and the perfect size. The in-house catering did a wonderful job with great service and delicious food that many guests are still complimenting three months later.
The ultimate high point of our Alger House experience though was working with Monika and Jeno. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Monika is just an outright amazing human being! I adored her. And Jeno is so great --- he should have his own television show! Both were complete professionals who were super responsive from point A to Z. They were also incredibly patient with ALL of my questions and offered a ton of helpful insights and valuable suggestions to help with the planning. Monika and Jeno know this industry like the back of their hands and it shows. We are so, so happy that they and the beautiful Alger House will always be a part of our happy wedding day memories.
Jeno and Monika made my big day absolutely amazing at the Alger House. Thank you so much for the great organization, flexibility and guidance! You guys were the most professional team I've met.
We had our wedding reception at Manhattan Penthouse and we can not say enough about it! Jeno worked with us throughout the whole planning process and stood by us throughout the whole night. He is amazing and I can not thank him enough for everything he did. He was so easy to reach and if I had any questions or concerns he was always there to help us along. The food was amazing and the views were spectacular! Manhattan Penthouse is a great venue especially if you have a wedding of about 140 people like we did. It fits more but it was so comfortable and spacious.
We had our wedding at Alger House in August 2013, and cannot recommend the venue enough for a unique, elegant NYC wedding. The decor at Alger House is beautiful and one-of-a-kind, and has a real vintage look and feel. We loved that the venue was already decorated, so there was not much we had to worry about in terms of needing to bring in lots of flowers or other items. The food is delicious, with options for cocktail hour ranging from seared tuna and bacon-wrapped dates to sliders and french fries (which were a big surprise hit with our guests!).
We worked with Monika throughout the entire process; she was professional, responsive, flexible, and extremely helpful. Planning our wedding and the actual day-of went extremely smoothly thanks to all of Monika's efforts and the great team at Alger House. The ceremony and reception all took place in the same room, and the Alger House team was super efficient at flipping the space.
We had 90 guests who were all wow'ed by the venue, service, and decor. We could not have chosen a better location for our wedding and are so happy with how it turned out.
We had such a wonderful experience with our July 2013 wedding at Alger House. We worked with Jeno for the past year leading up to our wedding, and could not have been in better hands. Jeno was EXTREMELY responsive to all our questions and emails - I honestly never had to wait more than a couple of hours to receive a response from him. In addition, the space is intimate and beautiful, with so many gorgeous decorations and details - and the Garden Room is a perfect space to get ready and take wedding pictures. This is a perfect venue for a wedding of about 85 guests...there's a lovely, close knit feel to the room, yet enough room to move around, dance and have fun.
On the day of the wedding, everything went seamlessly, and my husband and I could just sit back and enjoy our ceremony and reception, again, thanks to Jeno's meticulous planning and attention to detail. So many of our guests raved about the service and the food, too - we truly could not have asked for a better venue for our ceremony and reception!
I had both heard and read nothing but stellar reviews of the MHP since I first started searching for a wedding venue over a year ago. I wanted a space that included catering and an open bar, a great view of NYC and could accommodate up to 200 guests. At first, I thought this was impossible to find in Manhattan at an affordable price, but the MPH is THE space if you want the most for your money. Their caterers have been in business for 50 years and were willing to work with us to create the blend of Latin American and Mediterranean dishes we wanted. Furthermore, one of the managers we worked with, Jeno, answered all of my emails immediately, and was reliable, flexible and made us feel special even though he deals with 100's of clients at a time. You will not regret celebrating an event here- your wedding or any of life's other major milestones.

Moses (Rembrandt)
Anti-Catholic Reformed Protestant apologist Steve Hays dogmatically (and quite erroneously) proclaimed:
His satire would only be blasphemous if it were directed at God (specifically, the one true God). It isn't possible to blaspheme mere men and women. Your complaint reflects Catholic idolatry. (11-30-11)
Holy Scripture contains the Greek words blaspheemeo [βλασφημέω](Strong's word #987), blaspheemia [βλασφημία] (#988), and blaspheemos [βλάσφημος] (#989). They are often applied to men or angels. Hence Kittel's Theological Dictionary of the New Testament (one-volume) states (p. 107):
It may be directly against God . . . or angelic beings (Jude 8-10; 2 Pet. 2:10-12). . . .
Persecuting Christians is also blasphemy (1 Tim. 1:13). The community has to suffer blasphemy (Rev. 2:9; 1 Cor. 4:13; 1 Pet. 4:4). Opposition to Paul's message is necessarily blasphemy (Acts 13:45 [+ 18:6]) because it attacks its basic content.
. . . A bad action is blasphemy either because it resists God's will or beings Christianity into disrepute (1 Tim. 6:1; Jms. 2:7; Rom. 2:24; Tit. 2:5).
Kittel's Theological Dictionary of the New Testament (ten-volume set) elaborates:
3. But the Christian, too, is in danger of giving cause for blasphemy. Denial of Christ in persecution would be such. Hence Paul can say of his activity as a persecutor: αὐτοὺς ἠνάγκαζον βλασφημεῖν. Even in partaking of idol meats Christians in bondage could see blasphemy (1 C. 10:30), as distinct from Paul. Violation of the obligation of love even in such matters ὑμε͂ν τὸ ἀγαθόν (R. 14:16) could expose to scandal. False teaching is blasphemy when it perverts from the way of truth (2 Pt. 2:2; R. 3:8). The blasphemy does not have to find verbal expression. Any bad or unloving action can contain it, either because it resists the holy will of God or because it causes the enemies of Christianity to calumniate it (1 Tm. 6:1; Jm. 2:7; R. 2:24; Tt. 2:5). The basis is clearly set out in 2 Cl., 13, 2–4.
(Vol. 1: 1964- (G. Kittel, G. W. Bromiley and G. Friedrich, Ed.) (electronic ed.) (624). Grand Rapids, MI: Eerdmans)
Note: Steve Hays attacked the usefulness and methodology of Kittel, when I cited him. I replied with partial or fairly full scholarly support of this famous lexicon, from Helmut Koester (p. 242), E. F. Harrison (p. 57), Marvin R. Wilson (p. 7), David Hill (p. 121), Darrell L. Bock and Buist M. Fanning (p. 158), and Thomas F. Torrance (p. 333).
Likewise, The New Bible Dictionary (1962, "Blasphemy", p. 159):
God is blasphemed also in His representatives. So the word is used of Moses (Acts 6:11); Paul (Rom. 3:8; 1 Cor. 4:12; 10:30) . . . because these representatives embody the truth of God Himself (and our Lord in a unique way) an insulting word spoken against them and their teaching is really directed against the God in whose name they speak (so Mt. 10:10; Lk. 10:16). . . .
The term is also used, in a weaker sense, of slanderous language addressed to men (e.g. Mk. 3:28; 7:22; Eph. 4:31; Col. 3:8; Tit. 3:2). Here the best translation is 'slander, abuse'.
Even immaterial things can be blasphemed, such as the "word of God" (Titus 2:5: "discredited" in RSV), "good" [acts] (Rom 14:16), "teaching" or "doctrine" (1 Tim 6:1), "the way of truth" (2 Pet 2:2), "matters of which they are ignorant" (2 Pet 2:12). Follow the Strong's word links for comprehensive documentation of usage.
Zondervan Dictionary of Bible Themes (#5800: "Blasphemy") also shows a wide application of blasphemy in the Bible:
God blasphemed indirectly
Rejecting his word and his servants blasphemes God Ne 9:26 See also 2Ch 36:16; Ps 107:11; Isa 5:24
Defiling sacred things blasphemes God Lev 22:1-2 See also Eze 20:27-28; 22:26; Mal 1:6-13
Despising the poor blasphemes God Pr 14:31 See also Am 2:7; Jas 2:5-7
Speaking against his people blasphemes God Zep 2:8-11; Ac 9:4-5 To persecute the church is to persecute Jesus Christ; Ac 26:9; 1Ti 1:13; Rev 2:9
Slandering celestial beings blasphemes God 2Pe 2:10-12; Jude 8-10
(M. H. Manser, Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan Publishing House, 1999)
Blaspheemeo (βλασφημέω) [Strong's word #987] is applied to God (or "his name" -- which, in the Hebrew mind, is the same thing) in Matt 27:39; Mk 3:29; 15:29; Lk 12:10; 22:65; 23:39; Rom 2:24; 1 Tim 6:1; Js 2:7; Rev 13:6; 16:9, 11, 21.

The book, Kingdom of the Golden Dragon, is a sequel to City of the Beasts. Alexander, a boy, Kate, his grandmother, and Nadia, Alexs best friend are all also in this book, along with new characters. It takes place in a country in the middle of the Himalayas called the Kingdom of the Golden Dragon. It is a very peaceful country and people there live like people lived 60 years ago. There is a legend of a prophesizing golden statue, the Golden Dragon, which only the royalty of the kingdom can see. Alex, Nadia, and Kate travel there along with some cameramen to do an article for International Geographic. While there, Alex and Nadia become involved with a plot to steal the Golden Dragon and kidnap the king. They help the prince, the princes mentor, and a girl they meet stop the plot and try to stop the crime. But something unexpected happens, and to find out what, read the book.
I LOVED this book. It is a great installment
of this series. I could barely put it down. The
plot got me interested in the characters and
there was never a dull time. It reminded me quite
a lot of City of the Beasts because someone was
committing a crime on the unsuspecting, trusting,
and isolated people. I loved the ending because
it was surprising and made a lot of mysteries
make sense. I also really liked that none of the
characters turned out to be who you expected,
except for Alex, Nadia, and Kate. Another thing
that I liked was that Kate, who is usually cold
and hard, started to become more soft and
grandmotherly towards the end of the book. I
recommend this book to everyone, although it is
best if you read City of the Beasts first.

Soon after Alex Cold gets back from the Amazon, he gets ready for another trip with his grandmother, Nadia Santos, and the rest of the International Geographic team. This time they are going to the Forbidden Kingdom to research their way of life. When they get there they become interested in the Golden Dragon, a statue that supposedly has mystical powers. Soon, Nadia is kidnapped, drawing them into a plot to save Nadia and the Golden Dragon.
I liked this book as much as Ms. Allende's
first book in this series, City of the Beasts.
At the
beginning of Kingdom of the Golden Dragon there
was a part that
included the legendary Yetis. This was very
interesting and I expected Ms. Allende
would continue to include this legend in other
parts of the book, but
she only used it again in the last part. I found
this disappointing. Unfortunately, some of the
action dragged on in the first half of this book,
but in the second part there was a much faster
pace, which made for a great ending. The ending
nicely brought the whole book together, leaving
no loose ends. I recommend this book especially
if you enjoyed City of the Beasts.

Double Trouble on Alpe d'Huez
Surviving the Sarenne
7 / 10
There had been much discussion and concern about the technical descent of the Col de Sarenne, which had never before been used in the Tour de France, but the field got down it without major incident. The new route allowed the field to loop back to the base of Alpe d'Huez in less than an hour—great for the fans; tough for the racers.

Sylvester Croom won't be joining Saban's staff
Posted by Tom Fornelli
Former Mississippi State head coach and current St. Louis Rams running backs coach Sylvester Croom met with Nick Saban last weekend to talk about the lone opening on the Alabama coaching staff, as wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator. While it seemed that Croom had a good shot at landing the job, he told the Tuscaloosa News on Friday that he was no longer in the running and would be staying with the Rams.
"It was a very intriguing opportunity that Coach Saban and I discussed," Croom said. "My visit was more of a get-to-know-you with Coach Saban and the staff. It was a great visit. I really enjoyed it.
"I mentioned to him if certain possibilities developed I would be interested. That's how the visit came about. Just looking at the possibility when I was down there, he was not positive which way to go with the position that was open."
Croom, of course, played at Alabama under Bear Bryant and then spent a few years as an assistant on Bryant's coaching staff as well. According to the report, current Louisville quarterbacks coach and former Alabama grad assistant Mike Groh is now the frontrunner for the job.

Maryland DC headed to UConn
Posted by Tom Fornelli
When Randy Edsall came to Maryland from UConn, he decided to keep Maryland defensive coordinator Don Brown on his coaching staff. Well, it doesn't seem that Brown was all that happy with the idea, because according to a few reports, Brown is on his way out of Maryland to take the same position at...wait for it...UConn.
So, in a sense, it's as though UConn traded Edsall to Maryland for Brown and an undisclosed draft pick.
Brown, who came to Maryland in January 2009 as part of former coach Ralph Friedgen's staff, was retained by new Maryland coach Randy Edsall when he was hired earlier this year from Connecticut. The Huskies hired former Syracuse coach Paul Pasqualoni to replace Edsall.
Brown has extensive experience as a coach in New England. From 2004 to 2008, he was the head coach at Massachusetts, and before that spent four seasons as the head coach at Northeastern. He also was an assistant at Brown, Yale and Dartmouth.This could prove to be a big loss for Edsall and Maryland. Brown only spent two seasons at Maryland, but he did a nice job with the defense in that time. The Terps defense ranked 39th nationally in total defense. The team's rushing defense was 21st in the country, and only eight teams kept opposing quarterbacks to a lower rating than Maryland did in 2010.

Mack Brown wanted Charlie Weis in Austin
Posted by Tom Fornelli
The Texas Longhorns have had a lot of turnover on their coaching staff this offseason. Some changes were made by choice (Greg Davis for Brian Harsin) and others by necessity (Will Muschamp leaving for Florida). Ironically, the one change that Mack Brown wanted to make was altered dramatically thanks to the change he didn't want.
According to Kirk Bohls in The Statesman, Mack Brown's initial choice to replace Greg Davis as offensive coordinator was Charlie Weis, but then Muschamp left for Gainesville and things got complicated.
Mack Brown's first choice for offensive coordinator, I am told by two sources, was Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Charlie Weis, and the Texas head coach all but considered it a done deal that the former Notre Dame head coach would join his staff in Austin. However, Weis' high school senior son bonded with Longhorns defensive coordinator Will Muschamp and had planned to learn under him at Texas, until Muschamp bolted for Florida and the entire Weis family followed.Texas would then move on to Brian Harsin, who isn't exactly a terrible consolation prize given the success of the offenses he ran at Boise State. Still, the fact that Brown thought he had Weis locked up, and then lost him and Muschamp to Florida is somewhat of an apt description for Texas football in 2010 overall. The only thing missing from the equation was a Garrett Gilbert interception.

UCLA hires Mike Johnson as offensive coordinator
Posted by Tom Fornelli
It's been rumored for a while, but UCLA made it official on Saturday afternoon, announcing that Mike Johnson has been hired to be the Bruins offensive coordinator. Of course, the school hasn't officially fired Norm Chow yet, nor has Chow officially accepted a position at Utah as has been rumored as well. Still, the fact that the Bruins have a new offensive coordinator is a pretty good indication of where Chow won't be coaching next season.
In the official release, not only has Johnson been brought on to replace Chow, but Rick Neuheisel will be taking on the role of quarterbacks coach as well.
"During my assessment of our program, I felt it was necessary for me to be more involved in the day-to-day operation of the offense," Neuheisel said. "I decided that going forward, I will coach the quarterbacks and will be more hands-on in the area of play calling with a new coordinator.
"Mike is a great addition to our staff. He has a background with a multitude of offensive schemes, has coached several different positions and has experience in our conference as well as in the National Football League. Mike brings a wealth of knowledge and adds versatility to our offense and I can't wait to get in the film room and start planning for 2011 and the Pac-12.
"In addition, Mike is a dynamic and tireless recruiter who is familiar with the Pac-12 area and, in particular, southern California. He will be a great plus for our program in this important area."
Johnson spent the last few seasons with the San Francisco 49ers as a quarterbacks coach before taking on the position of offensive coordinator in 2010. He also spent two years working with Neuheisel on the Baltimore Ravens staff from 2006-07.
UCLA's offense was rather abysmal in 2010, as it finished 104th in the nation in scoring, averaging 20.2 points per game, and 116th in passing. The Bruins finished the season with a 4-8 record, including a 2-7 campaign within the Pac-10.

Report: UGa's Searels headed to Austin
Posted by Tom Fornelli
The overhaul of the Texas coaching staff continues, and it looks like Mack Brown has found another new member for his Longhorns staff. Georgia offensive line coach Stacy Searels was in Austin on Wednesday afternoon, and according to a report he'll be accepting the job of offensive line coach at Texas.
Georgia offensive line coach Stacy Searels traveled Wednesday afternoon to Austin, Texas, where a website covering University of Texas athletics, Orangebloods.com, reported Wednesday night that he accepted an offer to become the Longhorns' offensive line coach.
Texas has not yet announced a hire.
Texas head coach Mack Brown has been seeking an offensive line coach since the December retirement of Mac McWhorter. Auburn O-line coach Jeff Grimes last week turned down the position.Searels and Georgia have not released a comment on the story either. Searels has been in Athens since 2007 as an offensive line coach, and has made previous stops at LSU, Cincinnati and Appalachian State.

Headset Reset: Reviewing new SEC and ACC hires
Posted by Chip Patterson
"Headset Reset" is the College Football Blog's series reviewing the 22 new head coaches in the FBS and what they'll need to accomplish in their new jobs to succeed. In this edition: the four new head coaches in the SEC and the ACC.
WILL MUSCHAMP, Florida
Why him? Urban Meyer blindsided the college football community by stepping away from his gig as the head coach at one of the biggest football programs in the nation. So naturally, Florida poached the highest profile assistant coach from right under Mack Brown to lead the Gators into the new decade. For 2011, Muschamp needs to: Win the SEC East. By bringing in Charlie Weis as the new offensive coordinator, Gators fans will expect that many of the offensive woes that plagued them in 2010 will be eliminated immediately. But despite all their downfalls, Florida still came one game from winning the division. There will be no excuse not to reclaim the East in 2014. By 2014, Muschamp needs to have: Won the SEC Championship. Urban Meyer won two national championships in his first four seasons at Florida. Muschamp needs to at least win the SEC crown by 2014, presumably meaning the Gators are also in the national title discussion. Chances Muschamp gets what he needs?: There is no reason to think that Muschamp, a coach who carries a strong reputation in several major recruiting hotbeds, cannot continue to bring in the talent to Gainesville to build his own dynasty. I'd say chances are pretty good.
JAMES FRANKLIN, Vanderbilt
Why him? After Bobby Johnson retired less than two months before the start of the season, Vanderbilt scrambled to promote offensive line coach Robbie Caldwell to head coach. After Caldwell's 2-10 record in 2010, he stepped down as well. For 2011, Franklin needs to: Beat Elon and win at least one conference game. After two straight 2-10 seasons Franklin at least needs to equal that win total, even with a difficult non-conference schedule. The bar isn't too high, but the Commodores need to find at least one non-conference and one conference win in 2011. By 2014, Franklin needs to have: Made the postseason. Again, the bar is not too high (Vanderbilt has only 2 bowl appearances since 1980), but Franklin would likely land himself a long-term contract and cement his own place in Vanderbilt history by adding a postseason win to the school's resume. Chances Franklin gets what he needs?: Have you seen the SEC? Not great.
RANDY EDSALL, Maryland
Why him? New athletic director Kevin Anderson clearly had plans to get rid of Ralph Friedgen before he went on to win 8 games and be named ACC Coach of the Year. Despite the biggest turnaround in school history, the coach was removed in favor of Randy Edsall, the perennial coaching search smoke-screen. For 2011, Edsall needs to: Equal or improve from Friedgen's 8-win regular season in 2010. With many Terps fans and players sad to see Fridge shoved out the door, Edsall will immediately be compared to his predecessor. Fortunately, Edsall inherits a young and talented team led by ACC Rookie of the Year Danny O'Brien. By 2014, Edsall needs to have: Won the ACC Atlantic. Anderson's main reason for buying out Friedgen's contract was to take the Maryland football program from "good to great." After coming one game from winning the division in 2010, the only way to improve would be an appearance in the ACC Championship Game. Chances Edsall gets what he needs?: Not very good. The ACC Atlantic is getting stronger with Jimbo Fisher bringing Florida State back to national relevance, Dabo Swinney beefing up his coaching staff, and Tom O'Brien turning N.C. State into a perennial threat in the conference. Thinking that Edsall will be able to take the Terps to their first ACC Championship Game by 2014 is a tall order. But if it happens, it will be because of the play of O'Brien.
AL GOLDEN, Miami
Why him? After another year of poor attendance from a disinterested fan base, not to mention the failure to compete within their own division, Miami decided it was time for a change. For 2011, Golden needs to: While Shannon failed collect any hardware on the field, he certainly did his part recruiting during the offseason. Golden realizes the importance of recruiting in-state, and has hit the trail running. With only two weeks left until signing day, Golden is in the middle of his 45 scheduled visits for the month of January to solidify his 2011 class. Many recruits, including ones in-state, have expressed how impressed they were with Golden and his new staff. Golden won't be expected to win the division in 2011, but Hurricanes fans will be far less forgiving if they see a drop-off on national signing day. By 2014, Golden needs to have: Won the ACC Coastal. After years of dominating the Big East, Miami boosters have been disappointed to see Miami fall out of the conference race each year since joining the ACC. Golden needs to take the Hurricanes to their first ACC Championship Game by 2014, or else an occasionally unstable administration may get trigger happy once again. Chances Golden gets what he needs?: Golden faces an uphill battle as a coach with no experience south of Charlottesville, VA, but what progress he has made so far has been pleasantly surprising. He still is competing against Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech, who have combined for every ACC Coastal crown since the division formation in 2004. I'd put the chances of Golden taking Miami to the ACC Championship game right at 50-50.

Gary Crowton leaves LSU for Maryland
Posted by Tom Fornelli
The funny thing about Les Miles staying at LSU was that it may have been the first time in history a coach decided to stay at his current job and disappointed the fan bases of both schools. Of course, even if there are a few LSU fans out there who aren't big fans of Miles, there's like three to four times as many who didn't like offensive coordinator Gary Crowton.
So this should make them pretty happy.
This isn't much of a shocker, as there were rumors that Crowton was on his way out on Wednesday, and Les Miles wasn't exactly emphatic about denying any changes to his coaching staff. In fact, it's long been Miles' habit to never actually fire his assistants, but rather have them find other jobs. So the fact that a day after reports said Crowton was going to lose his job he's announcing he's accepted the same position at Maryland isn't surprising.
So now we can all turn our attention to Crowton's replacement at LSU, and whether or not he'll be just as hated, or if he can actually mold all the offensive talent that the Tigers recruit into a competent offense.

Coaching Changes Hit Recruits the Hardest
Posted by Bryan Fischer
DALLAS, Tex. – I'm in Dallas for the annual American Football Coaches Association Convention this week. One of the biggest draws of the convention is to network with other coaches and in some cases actually receive a job offer from a recently hired head coach.
It's pretty obvious when you walk into the conference actually, as four large job boards are plastered with resumes. As assistants jockey for offers and shake hands in the hallway, one often forgotten aspect of switching jobs is the kids they were recruiting.
After months and months of developing a relationship andgetting pitched on attending a particular school, it can sometimes be quite jarring to 18 year olds to no longer have a coach to play for. With the majority of coaching changes occurring within a month of signing day, recruits and their families are often scrambling to schedule other official visits and talk with coaches.
At the Army All-American Bowl on Saturday, former Michigan commitment Demetrius Hart chose Alabama. Hart had committed to Michigan in October but opened things up when Rich Rodriguez was fired as head coach of the Wolverines. As an early enrollee, the coaching change had an even greater impact on his commitment.
"I've always liked Alabama," he said. "But a lot of things came up with the coaching change at Michigan and me trying to get into school early. I didn't know what coaches were going to be there. I would have been in a situation where I didn't really know anybody. I had a good relationship (with the staff) and was going to come in early but with them leaving, Alabama was always a place I wanted to go."
Former Miami commit Teddy Bridgewater had a longtime relationship with former Hurricane coach Randy Shannon. One of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the country, Bridgewater was originally the jewel in the Hurricanes' class and a special bond with Shannon played an enormous role in first choosing Miami. Without a coach in place, he decommitted about a week after Shannon was fired and eventually committed to Louisville.
"I've known Coach Shannon since I was a child," Bridgewater said. "I played Pop Warner football in Arch Park and he's an alum of Scott Park, that's my rival park growing up. He used to come out to the games and the practices. We just grew a relationship over the years.
"For him to just be fired, it hit me hard. I was expecting to play for him. But that's just the business part of college football."
As hires are made and the coaching carousel turns this week, it's worth remembering that sometimes it's the kids who are impacted the most.

Many people think I am crazy to attack the educational system with fierceness. Yet, every day I walk outside of my door to the intense poverty of Detroit. Every day I am reminded that forty eight years after Dr. King spoke this segment in his speech "the Negro still lives on a lonely island of poverty." But what struck me the most is when George Bernard Shaw argued that "The greatest of evils and the worst of crimes is poverty, " in the Preface to his play, Major Barbara, published in 1907.
Rather than wish someone else change this condition, I chose to be change I wished. I chose to disrupt education, as like Nelson Mandela, I believe "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." I also believe that every child should have an education that is rigorous, relevant and full of positive inspiring relationships that will life them out of poverty as it did for me.
See, I was born to two high school dropouts and could have become a statistic of poverty. Yet, education carried me to the University and then Corporate America. That pipeline from Kindergarten to University to Corporate America must be accelerated to move million out of poverty. Join me in my newest project, FlukeTM - the wealth building game of accidental inventions. It is guaranteed to exposure players to the wild, wild world of intellectual property perhaps motivating them to move into that world.
Join me. Become a backer. Your funds as little as $7 can assist us to factory produce FlukeTM - the wealth building game of accidental inventions and lift millions of families out of poverty. Become a backer NOW! Go to http://www.kickstarter.com/

Despite it's name, the Falcon Heavy

"Heavy" is generally applied to a launcher that can get in excess of 70 metric tons to orbit. Falcon Heavy is only projected for 53 metric tons.
I'm confuzzled. Last time I said I suspect that SpaceX are up to developing a heavy launcher if they get the opportunity, you countered me by saying they already have one.
I didn't mean Falcon Heavy. Note that I didn't say "already has designed and is planning to launch this year". I said "interested in developing". Based on their concept designs, Musk's personal goals for his company and some of his latter comments, he and SpaceX are definitely interested in developing such rockets whether there are any money in it for them or not. Whether they can develop them is another matter.
But given the price of the SLS program, the money NASA would pay for a deep space mission would probably be enough to fund such project.

2007 Hyundai Accent • 4 cylinder •
Hi - why is my car alarm going off everytime I put the key in the ignition? It is a 2007 accent - never had trouble with either FOB and now both won't activate. The led lights come on in both of them though. I have to open the door with the key now. When I put the key in the ignition the alarm goes off - 3x for 30 second intervals and then it stays off. It does this everytime I start the car - very embarassing, especially when passing the police! Dealership can't take me in until Friday.

The Glorious Ones
That Peter calls demons "glorious ones" does not suggest they have some goodness left in them. Rather, it warns us of the power and might they still possess even though they are fallen. Though we must not fear evil if ...Read More
The God of Peace
Many well-meaning people seek world peace, but as Christians, we know that this will not be possible until all the world is at peace with God. The only way to bring about lasting peace between people and nations is to ...Read More
The Good Fight of Faith
Everyone who follows Christ makes the "good confession of faith" when he joins a church body, and Paul's exhortation to Timothy to remember the confession he made before other witnesses is an allusion to the importance of fellow witnesses ...Read More
The Great Conspiracy
Satan did not stop conspiring against God and His Anointed after the work of Herod and Pilate. He is continually at work. C. S. Lewis said that we often err either by ascribing too much or too little power to ...Read More
The Image of God
Sin did not destroy the image of God in man. Today's passage tells us that even after the fall, mankind is still made imago Dei. All people still reflect, in some way, the dignity of the Lord, no matter ...Read More
The Inevitability of Judgment
Obedience means submission. If we obey the law because it is God's law, we are showing trust in Him. If we "do what is right," ignoring the element of submission, we are acting in pride. Such "good deeds" are ...Read More
The Justice of God's Choice
We must take our standards for justice from what God says and not from our own arbitrary opinions. If God says something is just, it is just. Of course, the Lord is not arbitrary about this. Justice is grounded in ...Read More
The Just Mercy of the Lord
God does not visit the sins of our parents upon us if we repent and turn from them. That is, we only bear the wages of our parents' sins if we make these sins our own. The Lord is pleased ...Read More
The Key of Church Discipline
Dr. R.C. Sproul has often said that we must first understand the bad news if we are going to know the good news of the gospel. There is bad news for all the natural-born sons and daughters of Adam ...Read More
The King's Glorious Bride
Believers are concerned to mortify sin and grow in holiness, so it is easy to become discouraged when we feel like we are failing in this task and are struggling against the sins that seem to overpower us. If you ...Read More
The Law of the Mind vs. the Law of Sin
Though we have changed hearts if we truly believe in Christ, that does not mean we are not thoroughly affected by sin. Our minds, emotions, bodies, and everything else are tainted by our flesh—the fallenness that God does not ...Read More
The Law on the Heart
The fact that God's standards were written on your heart means you knew God's law even before you knew Him. The same is true for all people. Never hesitate to proclaim the high moral standards of God. Some ...Read More
The Life-Giving Spirit
Today's passage is a good reminder that while our justification in Christ guarantees our salvation, God's work of salvation will not be completed in us until we enjoy resurrected life in the new heaven and earth. Our Creator is not ...Read More
The Lord Knows How
That God keeps the unrighteous under punishment by turning them over to their sin should be a sober warning to us. While those of us with true faith will never lose our salvation, if we persist in disobedience, we may ...Read More
The Lord Send Him Out
Even though Christians have been set free from the bondage to sin and death (Eph. 2:1–7), we still struggle with the desire to flee God's presence, the feeling that our labor is futile, and contentiousness in our ...Read More
