A little restraint
April 18, 2016 § 21 Comments
When someone gets hurt from a bike fall or from a collision, it's natural to want to know how they're doing. However, well-meaning inquiries can impose a huge burden on the family members who may not have any information to share, especially when the extent of injuries is unknown. It's incredibly stressful to be asked over and over about your loved one's condition when the doctors haven't even debriefed you on status, or when your loved one is battling for his life.
Moreover, family members may not want to share, especially with people who they may not even know. A terribly injured loved one is a huge psychological trauma. The last thing the family needs to also deal with are "How's Bill doing?" text inquiries.
If you really care about the injured person and the family, consider the following.
- How close are you to the injured person? Super, super, super close? No? Then stand down.
- How close are you to the injured person's family? Never met them? Then stand down.
- Do you have anything to offer besides prayers and "thinking of you" type support? No? Then stand down.
- Do you know they have a specific unmet need, and that you're the person to fill it? Then consider reaching out, but not directly to the family.
- Have you been asked to do something by the family? No? Then stand down.
- Don't post information on Facebook unless the family has asked you to.
- A lot of the time the family will have a very close friend who is with them at the hospital. If you know that person, contact him or her regarding hospital visits or other questions you may have, and spare the family the task of responding to countless questions.
- Remember that in the immediate aftermath of a catastrophic incident, the hospital and the closest family members/friends are usually taking care of the necessities. The tough part is after discharge, when your friend begins what is often a long and painful path to recovery. This is when visits, phone calls, your friendship and help can greatly ameliorate the brutal and plodding work of returning to normal.
These guidelines aren't perfect, and there are always exceptions. But it will never ever hurt to really ask yourself twice, and then a third time, before you hit "send."
Cycling book review: "Ulysses" by James Joyce
April 17, 2016 § 16 Comments
Although regarded by discriminating readers as the greatest novel of all time, and regarded by less discriminating readers as gibberish, "Ulysses" by James Joyce is unquestionably one of the greatest books in any language about cycling, better even than "Positively False" by Floyd Landis.
After recently completing this mammoth read from Mammon at the pace of 25 pages per day (est. 2.6 minutes per page), I realized that far from being a modern allegory about Odysseus, "Ulysses" is in fact a book about bicycling.
In the spirit of the freshman English class that I failed, what follows are my textual references to support my novel thesis about this most novel novel. After 782 pages of careful analysis I discovered that Joyce writes movingly and with passion, depth, and understanding about bicycling exactly thirteen times. Here they are.
- "They passed from behind Mr Bloom along the curbstone. Beard and bicycle. Young woman."
- "His eyes followed the high figure in homespun, beard and bicycle, a listening woman at his side."
- "Gerty MacDowell loves the boy that has the bicycle."
- "As per usual somebody's nose was out of joint about the boy that had the bicycle off the London bridge road always riding up and down in front of her window."
- "W. E. Wylie who was racing in the bicycle races in Trinity college university."
- "But he was undeniably handsome with an exquisite nose and he was what he looked, every inch a gentleman, the shape of his head too at the back without his cap on that she would know anywhere something off the common and the way he turned the bicycle at the lamp with his hands off the bars and also the nice perfume of those good cigarettes and besides they were both of a size too he and she and that was why Edy Boardman thought she was so frightfully clever because he didn't go and ride up and down in front of her bit of a garden."
- "His right hand holds a bicycle pump."
- "He smites with his bicycle pump the crayfish in his left hand."
- "Love on hackney jaunt Blazes blind coddoubled bicyclers Dilly with snowcake no fancy clothes."
- "He had sometimes propelled her on warm summer evenings, an infirm widow of independent, if limited, means, in her convalescent bathchair with slow revolutions of its wheels as far as the corner of the North Circular road opposite Mr Gavin Low's place of business where she had remained for a certain time scanning through his onelensed binocular fieldglasses unrecognisable citizens on tramcars, roadster bicycles equipped with inflated pneumatic tyres, hackney carriages, tandems, private and hired landaus, dogcarts, ponytraps and brakes passing from the city to the Phoenix Park and vice versa."
- "of course hes mad on the subject of drawers thats plain to be seen always skeezing at those brazenfaced things on the bicycles with their skirts blowing up to their navels even when Milly and I were out with him at the open air fete"
- "pretending to read out the Hebrew on them I wanted to fire his pistol he said he hadnt one he didnt know what to make of me with his peak cap on that he always wore crooked as often as I settled it straight H M S Calypso swinging my hat that old Bishop that spoke off the altar his long preach about womans higher functions about girls now riding the bicycle and wearing peak caps and the new woman bloomers God send him sense and me more money"
- "can Milly come out please shes in great demand to pick what they can out of her round in Nelson street riding Harry Devans bicycle at night"

Rare bird
April 15, 2016 § 27 Comments
After many a ride Filds and I would recap the myriad stupidities of the day, and he'd always conclude, "Yeah, common sense. It just ain't that common."
As much as it pains me to say nice things about my friends, Gary Cziko and Pete van Nuys put on a seminar last night for our club, Big Orange. They are instructors for Cycling Savvy, a bike educational program for dorks.
In this case, however, the dorks aren't the usual objects of contempt. They aren't the people with panniers, recumbents, floppy dickhider shorts, helmet mirrors, sandals, and fourteen daytime lights. The dorks targeted by Cycling Savvy include everyone who doesn't understand proper lane positioning. This means you.
Most of what Cycling Savvy refers politely to as "the lycra crowd" and I impolitely refer to as "delusional underwear pedalers," considers itself expert at cycling safety. The reasoning goes like this:
- I wear my underwear on my bike and pedal fast.
- I enter one crit a year to get free crap from my team so I can call myself a bike racer.
- I have twelve top-10's on the Strava leaderboard for 45+ men over 250 lbs.
- My bike is expensive.
- I ride in big groups.
- I've never been killed.
Of course if you ride with the lycra crowd long enough you realize that in addition to being delusional, many of them are wholly incompetent at bicycle riding, even many riders who climb well, sprunt well, and time trail well. What's worse than their incompetence is that their insistence on bad positioning is built on an amazing resistance to criticism, let alone change.
After all, they're wearing their underwear and have never been killed plus they got 10 kudos yesterday so they know what they're doing, right?
Cycling Savvy's curriculum politely but firmly begins with the premise that no, just because you ride a bicycle you don't necessarily know what you're doing. In fact, given the ignorance of law enforcement, the prejudice of cagers, and the lack of formalized cycling instruction, the chance that you know what you're doing is quite small, because all savvy cycling begins with lane positioning, and a casual glance at any cyclist on any road reveals that most cyclists hug the gutter or the door zone.
It was fascinating to watch the Big Orange board get educated, a board that is comprised of people who have 12 zillion miles under their belt, who are already pretty expert at lane positioning, and who have extraordinary experience navigating large groups of idiots through the congested streets of L.A. It reinforced how badly we of the Underwear Tribe are in desperate need of education.
Unfortunately, the course is three hours long, which means your ass will be bleeding by the time it wraps up, and that doesn't include the parking lot and on-the-road components of the class. The curriculum also contains too much information for the typical bonehead who has been roped into the session hoping to get a tip or two about how not to get killed.
Yet Cziko and van Nuys did a phenomenal job of introducing us to the law, the science, the logic, and the practice of controlling the fuggin' lane, in addition to re-emphasizing the fact that if you put twelve boxes of Cheez-its in front of five cyclists they will devour everything down to the crumbs even when they're no longer hungry.
I just wish they'd call the course "Control the Fuggin' Lane, Dumbass!" and I wish more people would get educated. The rear-and-fore-facing videos showing how traffic responds to proper lane control are viscerally demonstrative of Cycling Savvy's other premise: The life you save will be YOURS. Learning all this from people who themselves have been cycling longer than most of us have been alive, and who are professional, educated, and smart, was an added bonus.
Ultimately, if you think you know how to ride on the road, the chances are good you don't. Because common sense just ain't that common.

The Atheist Training Bible for Old Bicycle Racers, Chapter 17: Fixin' what ails ya
April 14, 2016 § 24 Comments
I was talking to a buddy the other day. "How are you?" I asked.
"I don't feel so good."
"What's wrong?"
"I can't ride fast anymore and I'm always tired in the morning and I wear out quick. Plus after a long, hard ride I don't recover and feel like an old shoe."
"How long has this been going on?"
"A while now. The doctors can't figure out what's wrong with me."
So I told him what was wrong with him. "You're just old," I said.
"No, I'm not," he protested.
"You sure are," I insisted. "You are a ball bearing with all the round wore out."
Then it occurred to me that there are lots of people like him who are pooped all the time especially after 120-mile rides, and they haven't gotten the memo that they're too damned old to be sitting on a bike for that long. So I came up with some helpful hints to help you get more out of your riding life.
- Don't ride your fucking bicycle so fucking much. You are an old, worn out shoe, I don't care how fat and cardiac-arrested everyone else was at your 40th high school reunion. The less you ride the better you will feel.
- Slow the fuck down. What's the dogdamned rush? Where do you think you're going anyway, besides the grave, and what's the big rush to get THERE? When you go fast you pedal hard which stresses your systems, which are old and broke down. Give it a rest.
- Shoot your gym membership card. Gyms are for young people who can still get laid without paying for it. There is a simple rule for old person exhaustion: The more muscles you use (and you use 'em all at the gym), the tireder you will be. Plus, you look like an old fool trying to balance on that big bouncy ball, and you're gonna look like a bigger fool telling the doc that you broke your face in half falling off of it onto the kettle bells.
- Unless you're dating her (or him), quit the danged pilates class. Pilates and yoga only make you relaxed and warm inside when your insides are something other than cold, shrunken, icicles of rusted cynicism and despair. This means you.
- If you do any activity that rates you based on your age, stop it right now. The only reason Strava, etc. is age-graded is so that you can continue the delusion that you're not a rickety rackety pile of hollowed out bones that will turn to talcum powder the minute you fall out of your walker. If you're going to compete, compete with the P/1/2. You will lose so quickly and by such deafening margins that you will immediately see the virtue in birdwatching.
- Get some sleep. Remember how your mom used to tell you that you were a growing teen and you needed sleep? Well, she was just lying in hopes you'd not be out prowling the town late at night smoking dope and racing cars. But now you really do need sleep, so instead of prowling the Internet and reading blogs at night, switch all that shit off and go the fuck to bed. This means you, Sherri.
- Lay off the booze. You are tired in the morning because you are a drunk. Drunkening is the hardest workout you will ever do, and believe me, it shows. The last time I saw cheeks that puffy was on Mr. Stay-Puft. Lock up the liquor at least for a couple of weeks and you will have ten times more energy and enough money to buy a new tube instead of patching the same one for the fifteenth time.
- Spend a morning around some little kids. It will give you more energy than a case of Red Bull, after which you will be wrecked and sound asleep by 11:00 AM, which takes you back to #6 above.
- Cancel your new bike layaway plan. You're already in debt and debt makes you tired, saps your energy, and drains your sex glands. Once you're no longer saddled with a monthly paycheck deduction and 25% interest compounded hourly, you will sleep better, too.
- Quit doping. Doping makes you ride faster, which makes you more tired. Plus, doping makes you a lame-ass cheatbag. Aren't you too old to still be cheating? No? Then you shouldn't be cheating at something where, when you get busted, you get suspended from parking-lot crits. You should be cheating at something that will get you a life sentence, or maybe the electric chair. Go big or go pan y agua, baby.

Call of the somewhat wild
April 12, 2016 § 24 Comments
I have been spending more time birdwatching lately. You know, getting back to my roots because I am too damned old and tired all the time to be racing every weekend. Except last weekend, and next weekend. And there are some other races coming up, too, later on.
But anyway, I love being surrounded by nature because it is very peaceful. When riding I often scream like a lunatic, curse at complete strangers, and behave like a raging steroid pumped up on bicycles.
A couple of weeks ago I went out early to Madrona Marsh, in Torrance. It is 48 acres surrounded by chain-link fence set behind the largest shopping mall in America, the Del Amo Fashion Center, where people go to purchase things that by virtue of being in a giant mall cannot possibly be fashionable. The marsh is a tiny postage stamp, all that remains of the thousands of acres of wetlands that once provided incredible habitat for wildlife in the South Bay.
After a few minutes I had drifted off into the other world of misidentifying birds and scratching my head over impossibilities. Rufous or Allen's? Western or Cassin's? What's making that funny chirp?
It's amazing how quickly time goes by when you're looking at critters, exactly the opposite of how slowly time goes by when you're on the fucking rivet going up the Switchbacks and some young punk is plucking the skin off your balls with a ball-peen hammer.
Anyway, it was really quiet except for the bird racket. Then across the slough I saw this dude dressed up like he was heading out on an expedition up the Congo. No joke, he was wearing full green camo, heavy utility vest, giant floppy adventurer camo hat, hip waders, and was carrying a giant pole that he stuck down in front as he walked as if he were navigating a giant crevasse field at Base Camp 12 of Chomulungma.
Keep in mind that the slough that feeds the pond is about ten feet wide and the water is about a foot deep, with lots of tall grass along the edge which is perfect dragonfly habitat; the bugs crawl up out of the water and onto the grass to shed their skin and spread their wings.
So I watched Dora the Explorer walk off the path and into the slough. I was about a hundred feet away. "Hey!" I yelled. He looked up quizzically, his massive waders crushing entire sections of fragile grass. "Yeah, you, you dumb bastard!" I shouted.
"Me?" he asked.
I walked over to the edge of the path. "What the fuck are you doing out there in the slough?"
"I'm, uh, researching," he said.
I looked at his Amazonian explorer get-up and noted that he had a cheapo pair of $50 non-carbon field glasses dangling from his neck, binoculars that you couldn't have examined your own navel with, much less a bird or a butterfly. "Like fuck you are," I said. "Get your sorry fucking ass out of the slough, for fuck's sake."
"Why?" he asked.
"Why? You're CRUSHING THE FUCKING DRAGONFLY HABITAT, you stupid sonofabitch. Does the slough look like a fucking walkway?"
"I suppose you're right," he said, backtracking.
"You're damned straight I'm right. Stay on the fucking path. If every jackanape in a clown suit who came here tromped through the fucking slough with those rubber snowshoes the whole damned place would be mashed flatter than a fucking pancake!"
Dora walked off, rather briskly.
I sank back into my quiet reverie, happy to have finally found such a peaceful activity devoid of all conflict and anger.

America's Top 10 Cycling Cities
April 4, 2016 § 16 Comments
I've been gathering data since March 2014 on cycling developments around the country and have completed what is in effect a long-term study on the best cities for cycling in the U.S. If you are interested in seeing the data that were used to compile this report, email me or post a comment requesting it and I will post a link to the raw data for your review.
- Houston, Texas. Known mostly as a sweaty hell-hole filled with mosquitoes and large, flying roaches, Houston is in fact the highest-rated metropolitan area in North America for its favorable cycling infrastructure and environment. Despite a high number of cyclist-cager fatalities (1,202.8 in 2015), Houston won the top spot due to its high number of cycling commuters: Over 40% of the city gets to work by bicycle.
- Minot, North Dakota. Although "perfect" riding conditions only occur between August 15 and August 28, the rest of the year Minot offers an incredible variety of riding. Aficionados can choose between riding indoors, hanging out at Val's, or purchasing fracking equipment for their backyard. Minot nailed down the #2 spot due to its weekly ride (Tuesday) that boasts a gentleman who shows up on a tandem with no one on the back.
- Lancaster, California. Many people abhor the Lancaster-Palmdale Greater Methropolitan Area due to its ill-deserved reputation for drugs and highway fatalities, however,
- Tipton, Iowa. The hometown of former cyclist Jeff Filds, who no longer rides because he can't find anyone who "just wants to ride down to the park and back," Tipton offers scenic vistas, authentic Mayan burial pyramids, vast tracts of corn, and 47 different types of wind, all of which contain unique and beautiful varieties of dust.
- Bike Snob, New York. This black hole of negativity, anger, rage, formulaic writing, and sodden predictability drives me insane with jealousy. However, more Americans ride those pages than any other bicycling blog on the Internet.
- Portland, Oregon. Portland, site of former shipyards and naval stations and thousands of cases of mesothelioma, has in the last seven years imitated Austin, Texas, to a "T" and now boasts more people not from there who act like they were than the patrons of the Whole Foods Market on Lamar. Although most Porlandians drive SUV's and add apostrophes to their acronyms, there are more bike shops operating in the red in this mainstream counterculture small town big city than anywhere except Boulder, CO.
- Yellow Knife, Northwest Territories. Selected for its mild winters, short distance from major metro areas such as Vancouver, culturally diverse population, and number of miles of dedicated bike lanes, Yellow Knife continues to punch above its weight in bicycle friendliness.
- Sugar Land, Texas. Located west of Houston, Sugarland is home to Russell "Ol' Testicles," one of the people responsible for getting more people out of cycling than anyone since Henry Ford.
- Santa Fe, New Mexico. This enchanted city tucked away in the mountains offers unrivaled vistas, uncluttered roadways, endlessly beautiful mountain climbs, and with the exception of a few cold weeks, year-round quality riding weather. However, this polished diamond is best known for its local bicycling tour guide services, the Stern Tours and Neophyte Welcoming Committee.
- Santa Monica, California. Home to one of the greatest champions of the modern cycling era, Nick Brandt-Sorenson provides the world's leading web-based nutritional, pharmaco-medical, and fashion support for America's cyclists.

Chinese studying bike racing style
April 2, 2016 § 16 Comments
It is hard to learn another language because the people who speak it don't want to practice it with you because they speak English better than you do Chinese so why would they want to listen to you say "I live in an apartment dog, I enjoy eating roast spit, and I have a 3-year-old daughter wife. How old is your tooth?"
The better question is why would a brain-rotted old fart like me want to learn Chinese anyway? My next trip is to Mallorca for the annual Old Texas Gizzards Romp and Norwegian Salted Fish Beatdown Bicycle Ride and they don't speak Chinese there, they speak Catalan which is basically Spanish for defectives.
Anyway I like Chinese because it is very cheap. You can entertain the fuck out of yourself with a handful of Chinese words and it doesn't cost hardly anything. The reason it is entertaining is because of the great simplicity of Chinese grammar, which is this: In order to translate anything in your head from English into Chinese, you simply arrange the Chinese words in an order that you wouldn't ever arrange any sentence ever and then bingo you are bilingual.
But back to my problem of finding potential Chinese practice victims I did what I do with every life problem I apply a bicycle racing tactic to it. Bicycle racing tactics work for everything. In this case I used the Category Downgrade Tactic.
When you suck real bad at bike racing it's not that you suck like Brad House, it's that you are racing a too hard category. So you find an easier one that doesn't have anyone in it who can beat you. This fits the Derek B. Rule of Race Outcome Prediction, which is this:
The thing that determines whether you will win is not your training or equipment or fitness or brains it is who shows up. Signed, Derek B.
The same thing is true of Chinese practicing. If you want to force someone to talk to you in Chinese their English has to suck balls worse than your Chinese sucks balls which frankly is a whole shit ton of ballsuckery. It's a challenge because the only people whose English sucks balls worse than my Chinese ballsuckery are aged 4-6 months and they aren't speaking yet, anything.
Hiring teachers is for balls because they only speak according to the Chinese to English Ration Rule which is this: You pay me $75/hour and I will speak 1:875, one word of Chinese to 875 words of English explanation.
So you pay the fuckers to teach them English.
Anyway, bike racing downgrade tactics work you just have to find someone who really sucks balls at English which is hard but not impossible because there are over a billion of them and about half live in my apartment complex. But if Brad House can win a dozen state championships then you can find one Chinese person whose English is dogsbody bad.
I was walking laps around the apartment complex and saw this aged Chinese couple sitting on the stairs catching their breath from lugging groceries up Ravenspur Drive to their apartment. It's 18-percent and they were both about a hundred.
"Hi," I said.
"Hi," they said.
"How are you today?" I asked.
"Bu dong," they said.
"Nimen shi zhong guo ren ma?" I asked.
They smiled and said they were. Once it became clear that their English was absolutely nonexistent I had them snared like a new-bike owner on his first Flog Ride. I made a complete ass out of myself but they didn't care because it fit the Rule of Assdom: No matter how big an ass you make speaking Chinese, it's okay when your talking partner would make an even bigger ass out of herself speaking English.
I told them I was a lawyer but instead told them I was a fish. I told them I was married but instead told them I was tied up. I told them I had one daughter and two sons but instead told them that I had one toothache and two flippers. I told them my wife was orange. That my grandson's name was "Cow." That I like to ride my bicycle on car doors. And that every day I walked 10,000 laps around the apartment.
They smiled and told me my Chinese was excellent. We made a date to get together again and chat about the typhoon. I'm just afraid they will go home, break out the English dictionary, and learn five words of English. Then I'll have to downgrade again.

German politician forced to apologise after anti-gay slur against man tipped to be next foreign minister
A German politician has been forced to apologise after an anti-homosexual slur put the sexuality of the man tipped to be the country's next foreign minister in the spotlight.
Openly-gay Guido Westerwelle, 47, outed himself five years ago. He is set to lead his liberal FDP party into government with the conservative CDU after a stunning election victory on Sunday night.
The leader, who was pictured after his party scored just over 15 per cent of the vote with his arm around his live-in partner Michael Mronz, has never faced concerted opposition to his sexuality in free-thinking Germany.
Germany's new power couple: Guido Westerwelle (centre right) celebrates with his partner Michael Mronz (centre left) in Berlin on Sunday after the German general election
But left-winger Peter Langner of the SPD Social Democrats - a party crushed in Sunday's election - couldn't resist a cheap jibe.
Langner, the treasurer of the former Ruhr industrial city Duisburg, told friends: 'I don't want a gay foreign minister'. Westerwelle is tipped to land the post in the new power-sharing administration, despite critics slamming him for a lack of experience.
As well as being condemned for showing a lack of grace, Langner was also judged guilty of gross insensitivity regarding homosexuals in a country where thousands of them were persecuted and murdered by the Nazis.
Gay and lesbian groups were quick to condemn him as Adolf Sauerland, the mayor of Duisburg, distanced himself from his treasurer saying: 'What Mr. Westerwelle does at home is of no interest whatsoever to me.'
The pair celebrate their victory in the German elections with beer in Berlin
Langner has admitted that he has received many irate letters, phone calls and e-mails.
He tried to justify himself by saying the remark was made 'in a private circle'.
But he added: 'It was inconsiderate coming immediately after the results of the election were posted and I do not have any prejudices towards any homosexual person. I am a tolerant man.'
He continued: 'If I have hurt anyone's feelings with my outburst, I am deeply sorry and offer my apologies in all ways possible.'
Westerwelle's sexuality has not been an election issue. His enemies are far more concerned with his hardline plans to trim trade-union power, lower taxes and trim the health service.
But for Westerwelle himself, the support of 42-year-old Mronz was a 'vital factor' for him during the election campaign.
Westerwelle's Free Democrats are now to form a coalition with Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats
Hee said he couldn't have done it without his partner 'being there for me'.
Now they are being touted as the country's new 'power couple', with populist Bild newspaper proclaiming: 'His man makes him so strong!'
While Westerwelle is certainly no gay activist, he has said before that his lifestyle may be 'encouraging for some young gays'.
'I can only tell all young gays and lesbians to not be disheartened, if not everything goes their way,' Westerwelle told the Berlin's gay magazine Siegessaeule this month.
'This society is changing for the good in the direction of tolerance and respect ... though slower than I would wish.'
Westerwelle has been known to be gay since 2004, when he brought his partner to Angela Merkel's 50th birthday party.
Criticism: Westerwelle and Mronz in front of the opera house in Bayreuth in July this year
'I've never been hiding my life,' Westerwelle said back then. 'I just lived it.'
Mronz, who met Westerwelle in 2003, is an event manager who also organized the athletic world championship in Berlin this summer.
He recently joined the Free Democrats, saying that after having listened to 120 speeches by his partner, 'I am completely convinced.'
Westerwelle, who has led the Free Democrats since 2001, also spoke out for stronger civil rights during the election campaign and has criticized in the past that German law does not give complete adoption rights to gay couples.
The Lesbian and Gay Association in Germany welcomed Westerwelle's victory and hoped his election would become a motor for gay rights in Germany.
'We think it's awesome that it has become so normal that an openly gay man becomes foreign minister,' said Klaus Jetz, the head of the association, adding that the gay community expected him to advocate gay rights in Germany and abroad as well.
'It's important that as foreign minister he will openly talk about human rights and the persecution of gays and lesbians in other countries.'

Commissioner Corner Message Board
12 team H2H keeper
I'm taking over a league that has a few openings after the original commissioner left. I'm in need of 5 new managers. Because the league is changing drastically, we're *almost* starting from scratch. Each team will get to select a "franchise player" to begin their team with. The owners that were in the league previously will get to choose of of their players. The 5 new owners will get to choose a player from a team that has been abandoned. The draft will then be on December 18th. For each year following, you'll get to keep 4 players. One player will be designated your franchise player. You can keep him for as many years as you like. The other three spots are for a 1, 2, and 3 year contract. You may promote any of these players to Franchise if you no longer want to keep your current franchise player, but you can't promote from a one year to a three year contract.
The catagories are pretty straight forward. The only non-traditional category is A/T, replacing turnovers.

The Cougars had not lost a regular season game for nearly two full years. Danville, meanwhile, hadn't even bothered to entertain what a defeat to North Putnam would be like, as the Warriors hadn't lost to North Putnam in more than fifteen years.
The answer would be known before half of the first quarter was over as the visitors scored three times in the opening 5:34 in a 40-6 win over the Warriors.
North Putnam wasted little time in finding the end zone as their fifth play from scrimmage ended with six points. Hank Spencer took a handoff straight through the middle of the Warrior defense for 49 yards and an early lead.
After forcing a three-and-out, Jake Smerage nearly took the ensuing punt in for six yards. His 52-yard return was halted at the Danville three-yard line, from where Spencer walked in for six more points to increase the lead to 13-0.
Danville then fumbled the following kickoff, which was recovered by North's Devon Thrasher. Three plays later, Spencer was in the end zone again after a seven-yard run to extend the lead to 20-0, scoring his third touchdown 24 seconds after the previous score.
Another three-and-out from the hosts was punished nine plays later, with the aerial route being the preferred route for the Cougars.
Kolten Everts connected only twice on the drive, but the 59 yards gained from them were enough for six after his 39-yard strike to Smerage caught Danville flat-footed and gave the Cougars a 26-0 lead.
Things got hairy from there as Danville, battered by the offensive explosion, lost their next three possession on downs.
The Cougars, seemingly content with the early barrage, failed to capitalize as they fumbled the ball away twice and had a Danville punt touched by two different players, but watched as the Warriors recovered.
North did have some success, as they added a fifth score after Everts hit Jake Haste for a seven-yard score to make the lead 33-0.
The Cougars would end their scoring late in the third quarter when Everts kept on an option play and went 40 yards down the left, freezing one defender while evading several others to extend the lead to 40-0.
Danville finally got a score on the ensuing possession after starting off with a 40-yard kick return. Six plays later, from the North Putnam 34, Scott Amor found Nick Thurston in the middle of the Cougar defense and the senior running back did the rest for the score.
It then became a case of grinding down the clock for the Cougars, who utilized reserve players to grind out the final minutes and nearly add one final score when Trevor Smith was corralled three yards short of the end zone.
It was a satisfying win for the Cougars and head coach Brian Crabtree, in a game where the only things stopping the Cougars were themselves and a hole in front of the Cougar sideline. Repair work on the gap delayed the game, though Crabtree thought his quad handled the wait well.
"There was a little worry. Them working on the sideline didn't kill the momentum for us. It wasn't ideal, but we didn't lose anybody to it, so it was alright," Crabtree said.
While the Cougars looked unstoppable in the first quarter, they lost some steam in the second, a quirk of having jumped out to such a big lead.
"I don't think it was a lack of effort, but maybe a lack of focus. When you jump up four scores that quick, that's a concern. People will ask, 'Are you going to stay focused?'," Crabtree said.
"We had a couple of turnovers, had penalties creep in, the punt. We have to continue to maintain the effort all the way through four quarters."
With the history stacked against the Cougars so heavily, expectations might have weighed down the squad. Crabtree noted that weight belonged to Danville.
"I think the psychology effected them more than us. These kids only know the Danville program that's struggled recently whereas Danville only knows the program that's struggled earlier," Crabtree said.
The weight carried by the Cougars, though, was one that Crabtree said was a willing load.
"The coolest thing about this was playing for the community. We heard all week from a lot of alumni and everybody else how big this was and we took a real sense of pride, carrying the community on our back and rewriting history against a storied program like Danville," Crabtree said.
With the win, and pending Saturday's result, next week's contest against Greencastle is one where the WCC title could be at stake. Crabtree said the Cougars would be up to the challenge.
"Greencastle's just outstanding this year. They are on a new level. It's going to be a heck of a ball game," Crabtree said.
"I think the key is that they're going to try to line-up and throw the ball. We're going to need to defend the pass and control the line of scrimmage on offense to do what we want to do."

Demi Lovato: Fans Inspired My New Wrist Tattoos
Demi Lovato's new tattoos aren't a form of rebellion.
Shortly after checking out of an undisclosed rehab facility Feb. 28 -- Lovato pulled out of the "Camp Rock 2" tour in November to seek treatment "for emotional and physical issues" -- the 18-year-old Disney star got inked to thank her fans for supporting her through "the darkest time of my life."
"The journey that I went through and the support of my fans was so meaningful to me that I wanted to thank my fans in a way that I know can never be forgotten," the singer tells Cambio. "So I went ahead and I got a little heart tattoo on my wrist."
Lovato -- who recently reunited with ex Wilmer Valderrama -- also added some permanent words of encouragement to her wrists.
"Together they say 'Stay Strong,' but this one has a heart," she says, pointing to her right wrist.
Why the heart? "It's something that my fans were actually drawing on their wrists while I was still in treatment. Some people even got tattoos of it, so I wanted to show you guys that I will never forget the support that you guys gave me," the "Sonny With a Chance" actress explains.
"I will look at it every day and remember you guys and be completely thankful for you."

A word in due season for the 'End Times', Knowing the Heart of God 2
in The Bible
The Author continues to read from the Book of Jeremiah, the Prophet who the Lord of hosts, sends to His peculiar people to give them the word of knowledge, warning and guidance. The Lord's chosen people the people of Israel and Judah, continues to disobey the voice of the Lord, and therefore the real complaint is against those higher spirituality that intercept his people, their minds and their ways. The people commit adultery that is they bow down to idols instead of acknowledging their God, the Lord of hosts. In this the people also commit wickedness in their sacrificial offer by burning seeds to Molech, which is killing their sons and daughter to a false god. By putting another before their true Lord God, the people commit sin. The Lord of hosts abhors this type of consciousness in the people for they are in a degraded state. The Lord of host speaks that He is the God of all flesh [Jeremiah 32:7] so He shall do as sees to do to His people and evil shall fall upon them. The Lord continues to complain through His Prophet Jeremiah that He is a living God who sees, knows and acts; therefore no longer will the Lord be known as the God that leads the children of Israel out of Egypt. Instead He shall be known as the LORD who lives and He shall bring the seed of Israel from wherever the Lord has caused them to scatter and they shall live in their own land.
The word of the Lord here is that the Lord shall work with the young people in this coming season to prepare them for the new blessings to come upon the earth. The Lord speaks that He is a living and true God, who watches and knows the thoughts and acts of the people. The Lord affirms that the seed He has prepared are new people who shall eventually come to rule the earth and the Lord of host as their main Governance.

New York Times Best Selling Author Celebrity Marilu Henner
in Books
The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview New York Times Best Selling Author Celebrity Marilu Henner. She will discuss her latest book Changing Normal: How I Helped My Husband Beat Cancer.
The New York Times bestselling author and beloved actor from the sitcom Taxi, Marilu Henner delivers an intimate account of how she and her husband stood together and triumphed.
After they'd been dating only a short while, and as they were falling madly in love, Marilu Henner and Michael Brown were hit with the ultimate bad news: Michael was diagnosed with cancer. Refusing traditional care, they pieced together a personal and holistic view on battling his cancer, all while forging an unbreakable bond.
In this moving and informative book, Marilu pulls back the curtain on how they dealt with the blow. She relates her holistic perspective on health—including the superfoods, exercises, and immunotherapy they used to fight back—and why a diagnosis doesn't have to be the end of romance or of a happy and fulfilling life. Takeaways, tips, and practical advice make this a useful guide for anyone working to sustain a relationship through the adversity of disease.
Written with an engaging voice, a sense of humor, and life-changing wisdom, Changing Normal is a personal and touching look at how Marilu and Michael faced down a cancer diagnosis and came out the other side happier, healthier, and more in love than ever.

Batman Vs. Superman: Have Massive Plot Spoilers Been Leaked by a Disgruntled Crew Member?
Last week, Warner Bros. confirmed that it is pushing the release of Batman Vs. Superman from July 17, 2016 to May 6, 2016, giving the filmmakers more time to fully realize their immense vision for the ambitious sequel, which features Superman (Henry Cavill), Batman (Ben Affleck) and Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot). Like any production of this magnitude, there has been an abundance of rumors floating around in regards to the Man of Steel follow-up.
Today, we have even more grist for the rumor mill, from a NeoGaf message board user named "James Woods," who reportedly learned a number of plot details from a source who worked in the art department before he was fired last week, which may have stemmed from the release date shift.
Of course, none of this has been confirmed, but if this information is true, there will be massive spoilers below, including new details about the cliffhanger ending we reported about yesterday, which villains are involved and details on how Wonder Woman and Aquaman fit into the story. If you don't want to be spoiled, then stop reading now.
"Time for some possible bullshit. These are rumors I've heard from someone that got fired from the production recently (like the past week). Take this with a grain of salt though, folks. Seriously. Please note that there are some major spoilers here if any of it is true."
- The villains are Lex Luthor and Metallo.
Batman forms a UN type deal to stop Superman from destroying another city.
Aquaman is in it, but not called Aquaman. He's there because the world engine in the ocean did something to the fish.
Jason Momoa is definitely up for Aquaman.
Wonderwoman poses as a Wayne Enterprises investor to retrieve an item that belongs to her people.
Lex Luthor is in the shadows a lot, a manipulator. Not much face time with Superman.
Robin betrayed Batman at some point, leading to a falling out between them.
The Batcave was super cool looking, and the mobile looked similar to (Tim) Burton's
Lois is investigating Lex.
Metallo "kills" Clark.
The Daily Planet is bought by Lex Luthor for PR purposes.
At the end Superman is living in exile, and the Justice League is an government approved superhero team.
My source is someone from the art department that supposedly got shitcanned (apparently a bunch of them were fired). I confirm nothing. Just passing along what I heard. Take it with the proper amount of salt."
Latino Review dug deeper into the claim that several art department workers have been fired. The site couldn't find any group of employees working for Warner Bros. or producer Christopher Nolan's production company Syncopy Entertainment who were fired. However, there are some union contracts that allow employees to move off a project, if it doesn't meet a certain "trigger date." The release date being moved to 2016 has opened this window for some employees, who the site have confirmed have "moved on," although they can't confirm that anyone was fired.
However, we have heard about Batman's falling out with Robin before, along with Jason Momoa being in contention to play Aquaman, although he was initially rumored to play either Doomsday or Martian Manhunter. We first heard about Metallo's inclusion back in December, with Callan Mulvey rumored to be up for the villainous role, along with another report that Lex Luthor and Metallo will be the sequel's two villains.
We reported yesterday that Joaquin Phoenix is very close to signing on as Lex Luthor. That report also included details about the sequel's cliffhanger ending, which Warner Bros. will employ in all of their superhero films from now on, to differentiate themselves from Marvel and their end-credits teaser scenes. If the details on this ending provided by "James Woods" are true, it most certainly will set the scene for Justice League, which was rumored last week to be shot back-to-back with Batman Vs. Superman.
Of course, it's possible that all of these details came from an earlier draft of the script that isn't being used anymore. We reported last month that Oscar-winning screenwriter Chris Terrio (Argo) has signed on to rewrite the script, although it isn't known if he is simply polishing David S. Goyer's original draft, or if he is performing a bigger overhaul.

Watch A Tiny Hamster Eat A Tiny Burrito, For Your Daily Squeal
For whatever reason, we have been conditioned to immediately melt into a sappy puddle of "awes" and "wees" at the sight of a cute animal. Call it the Puppy-Eyes Effect, but it's real, and denying it only makes the effect stronger.
Cats, dogs, and, more recently, sloths have won the Internet's heart. But, hamsters, dear readers, are where it's at. If we're going to be specific: smaller-than-average hamsters eating smaller-than-average burritos at a smaller-than-average table is where it's at.
Just look at its tiny lil' hands holding that tiny lil' burrito meal its human so thoughtfully prepared. The sight of that nibbling is heart-wrenching in all of the right ways. Then our lil' buddy gets greedy and inhales his gourmet dinner all at once! Ah! Luckily, its human had second helping prepared so as to avoid an awkward Oliver-Twist-wanting-some-more moment. We, however, don't have that luxury. Please sir, can we watch some more?

Undefeated in his first nine fights, current CageSport 145-pound champion Julian Erosa has quickly established himself as one of the top prospects in the Northwest fight scene.
Most recently, CageSport has managed to expand its audience due to a television deal with Root Sports. It's a deal that Erosa in particular is happy to be fighting under.
"It's nice to finally get out there like that and have it so my family and friends can actually see me fight rather than just hear about it," he said. "It's also good for promoters and sponsors looking for younger talent to be able to watch it on TV.
"It's definitely a lot nicer to have this type of exposure and I'm really looking forward to going out there and showcasing my skills again for everybody."
Erosa's next opportunity to shine comes Saturday night as he defends his CageSport title against Drew Brokenshire just east of Tacoma, Wash.
"I'm pretty much a stand-up fighter and it's pretty much what I'm 100-percent more comfortable with all around, but I can go anywhere," said Erosa. "I can go on the ground and stuff too, but I feel I have an advantage on the feet. So that's kind of my game plan: keep it standing, pick my shots and stagger him a little bit, and maybe finish it with a TKO or something.
"I feel all-around Drew's a pretty decent guy, but my skills are a little bit better."
While putting his title and unblemished record on the line could be a lot of pressure on Erosa, he told MMAWeekly.com that he thrives on those conditions and it makes him want to win even more.
"It does bring a little bit more pressure, but with that pressure it does bring a drive for me to want to really perform," he said. "I don't want to go out there and disappoint people who have a lot riding on me.
"I just really want to keep my record unblemished and keep pushing forward through these guys. They're going to keep getting tougher, and some people are saying this is my toughest fight yet, but I feel like I'm going to be the bigger fighter and am going to be able to perform under pressure like this."
The more Erosa can continue to deliver with the spotlight on him, the better his chances are of graduating to the next stage of his career, which he hopes to accomplish in 2013.
"I don't try to look past anybody, but I really want to push to get myself into the UFC," said Erosa. "145 is one of the deepest divisions out there, so you really have to earn your spot.
"Whether they call me to replace an injured fighter or I try out for TUF, however I can get in there and scratch my way to the top, that's what I'll do."

Grassroots North Shore announces that based on a poll of its membership, the organization will be endorsing candidate Chris Moews in the Democratic primary for Milwaukee County Sheriff. This is the first time the organization has endorsed a candidate in a primary.
According to Keith Schmitz, coordinator for Grassroots North Shore, "We feel that based on his record of competence and leadership with the Milwaukee Police Department, Chris Moews would improve the operation of the Sheriff's department."
"Thanks to the efforts of the MPD, crime is down in Milwaukee and Chris has played a major role in delivering greater security to the community."
Chris' 16-year career with the MPD has led to his current position, supervising the late shift of the Homicide Division. During his off-hours he has been immersed in a variety of community activities.
"We feel his ability to be a consensus builder would be a refreshing change for the Sheriff's department. On top of that, as a organization representing Milwaukee North Shore progressives, we are compelled to support a real Democrat as county sheriff and someone who supports our values."
Grassroots North Shore will be urging its members to contribute to the campaign and help Moews win the nomination.
Grassroots North Shore is the progressive voice for the communities of Bayside, Brown Deer, Fox Point, Glendale, Shorewood and Whitefish Bay. For more information, visit www.grassrootsnorthshore.org.

Two brothers found guilty in New Years day beating. - wtvr

it is still a sad day in this world when people can't realize we are on this ball of dirt together.
Stout does,nt want to face the truth of the matter and that is that we are still subject to live among those who for whatever inane reason live in a past time that is really best forgotten and not glorified.
the war was lost
there are enough reasons not to keep fighting it into the future if for no other reason than to assure a future.
another sad commentary is the fact the perps were let go after conviction on a violent act.
looks like someones sheet is still showing....
#44 Oct 10, 2010
You are right. This is soso sad.
#45 Oct 10, 2010
The sentencing isn't based on the fact that the victim lived, it's based on the intent, they would have still been beating if he had not ran away and the additional use of weapons. These guys didn't arrive at the intiation of te incident with weapons, they left the altercation, weren't being pursued, weren't in danger of being pursued other than by law enforcement and returned to finish him off. Let's say that there was a fair fight between the black and one of the brothers. The black guy got the best of him. One of them could have exercised commonsense and said,"okay brah, let's go." Here we have two assailants commencing a beating on a guy that's a foot shorter than them, 50-100 pounds lighter and down on the ground before the real beating started. Even the ufc adopted a weight class. 20 years is plenty sufficient and maybe their attorney can appeal because of the "it's not Selma 1950 something, get em!" and the next jury won't recommend the minimum.

I went in for spasms in my gallbladder area. I was quickly shuffled to a room where they immediately did urine/blood tests. 8 hours later after a CT and ultrasound, they tell me I have a UTI. It took 8 hours to tell me that? My discharge was rushed and I went home with zero confidence that the problem was actually fixed. Went to pick up my prescriptions only to find out that they never sent one over to the pharmacy. When I called to let them know, I was treated as a liar (they claimed ...view morethe script was handed to me in my discharge paperwork) and was told that they couldn't do anything for me even though they had a record that they NEVER handed me the script.

Apparently some of the nurses there. Think its OK to call people fat in the hallway outside there rooms. Reports have been filed . hopefully the nurses will be fired. I really hope how that low life treats people is not acceptable to the heads of the hospital. I say we contact the news if nothing is done
it is getting better --the surgical drs and nurses are great--good experience today and last 2 trips
My husband is a diabetic who has been vomiting for 2 days and his blood sugar was ridiculous high so yesterday I brought my husband to Annapolis hospital in Wayne to find out what was causing his problem. They tested his blood sugar it was 451 didn't give him any insulin or didn't check Hes blood sugar again for another 8 hrs! Then released him saying that he needed to change his diet. Not even 24 hours later we r back at Annapolis hospital for the same thing. We have been sitting in t...view morehe emergency waiting room for almost 3 hours and haven't seen anyone!! This is a pathetic!! How does anyone here have a job?!? I'm surprised this hell hole isn't closed down yet!!view less
I sit here in the waiting room after 6 hours on the waiting room to see a doctor. Do not waste your time at this hell hole. The service is slow, rude, and disgusting. Never again. Should have went to St.Marys instead of this junk.
People don't care and wont help. They will leave u to die in the waiting room saying they're are no beds open as the take everyone else in after u. You would be better off staying home! Go to any other hospital but this one! 2+ hour waiting for help! Glad it wasn't appendicitis or i would be dead.
I have never had a good experience with this hospital. I went in with a horrible UTI, knew exactly what it was and just needed a prescription, the doctor literally argued with me about where the pain was, repeatedly telling me "is the pain in your bladder?" "No.It's in my urinary tract" "and your bladder?" "No" "it's your bladder". And then hands me a prescription for a bladder infection and walks out. Also nurse did the IV wrong. Friend came here because he had fallen about ten feet w...view morehile skateboarding, and his ankle swelled to the size of a baseball. They gave him an xray said it wasn't broken and have him a brace and nothing else and told him to leave without medication of any kind. His mom took him to competent hospital the next day and they found out he had torn his ligament which is more painful and more serious than a break and got him on suitable pain meds immediately. This place is a joke.view less
Working in the medical field I try to give hospitals the benefit of the doubt, but having witnessed first hand, this is one of the worst hospital I have been in. It saddens me to say this, because patients trust their safety to us. My relative was on the cardiac floor and ordered breakfast. When I called at 1:30 in the afternoon, she still had not received her breakfast yet.
It saddens me that I have to give such a low review however, I have been coming to this hospital since I was a baby and now that I am in my mid-thirties it has fell below good standards. I'm not sure if the problem is the hospital itself or the staff withing. I have had a total of 4 close people that have died at/or leaving this facility. Of the four, two are withing the last ten years and of the two one was released with "nothing physically wrong" with them. I cannot definit...view moreely say, or it hasn't been proven yet but "I" feel that malpractice is involved.
It's like to me, that they give as minimum medical attention as possible. I was there recently for a routine abscess and the treatment that I received caused me to get worse and I ended up in U of M hospital for 7 days. I feel that that this hospital needs to be evaluated.view less
