Ron Jeremy is simultaneously ubiquitous and elusive. From his New York Times bestselling autobiography, Ron Jeremy: The Hardest (Working) Man in Showbiz, to Porn Star: The Legend of Ron Jeremy, a documentary pieced together from choice moments of his life, it's safe to say the public is inundated with enough material on the AVN's number one porn star of all time. With an estimated 4,000 women on his bedpost notch, he's certainly popular with the ladies and he proudly admits in his book that he's never had an STD in his life. He's been known to rub shoulders with A-list celebrities and rock stars and recently made several cameos in both porn and mainstream media, and continues to gain ground in the mainstream arena. But who exactly is Ron Jeremy?
Chances are, we may never know the man behind the 9 ¾-inch schlong (or as Ron likes to say, "It's 2 inches… from the floor!") but we do know this: He's a smart, funny, loyal, and a genuinely nice Jewish boy from Queens who just wants to have fun. A true lover of showbiz, one can't find a more idealistic actor in the entertainment industry who, at times, may feel underappreciated and at 56 is still seeking that big break. SexHerald caught up with the famous porn veteran ("Do I get a purple heart?") who was nice enough to regale us with stories of Plato's Retreat and perhaps little-known facts of his life (did you know he was a feminist)?
SexHerald: I had a chance to watch American Swing recently…
Ron Jeremy: Did you like it?
SH: It was interesting. I'm wondering as to why Magnolia Home Entertainment decided to take this part of history and make a film out of it.
Jeremy: They [Miramax] made a movie called Studio 54 [1998], with Mike Myers, Salma Hayek, which, by the way I'm in. I have a couple of lines in that film, because I was part of that era as well, and also the Woodstock era which was a similar part of the period, and this comes a little bit later… it was all part of the sexual revolution—the whole anti-Vietnam War, hippie-dippie flower children type thing. Plato's [Retreat] came at a very good time. After the [sexual] revolution, it became an alternate lifestyle where people can be emotionally monogamous but not necessarily physically monogamous. The thing is, the best known club in the world is Plato's. It got started but it didn't get really known—no one really knew what this world was all about—until Larry [Levinson] went on talk shows, celebrities went to Plato's and talked about it. It stands up there alongside Woodstock, Studio 54, Plato's Retreat, and now you've got American swing… it's up there as a cult phenomenon coming out of the East Coast, coming out of New York.
SH: In terms of swinging, do you think the phenomenon is still relevant to today's generation?
Jeremy: It goes on so much that it almost blends into the woodwork in a way. You hear all these rock stars on talk shows: 'Oh yeah, my god, my girl is great, so I bring home a woman once in a while.' It's said so casually and it's so accepted. That was the whole thing about Plato's. It was about letting someone else into your romance—another physical person comes into your relationship. They talk about it on TV like it's no big deal. Every major rock star will say that, with the exception of Alice Cooper who's remained monogamous through his whole marriage. Other than him, all the rock stars talk about it. 'I've got the greatest wife, I've got the greatest woman, I'll bring a girl once in a while or she'll bring a girl once in a while, and occasionally I'll do a little swinging.' It's almost like it's accepted in that aspect.
They don't call themselves swingers but they're kind of doing that same kind of lifestyle. Whenever you let a third or fourth party, being a couple, into your romance, that's kind of like swinging. It's kind of what Larry Levinson was all about.
SH: Do you consider yourself a swinger?
Jeremy: Kind of, I guess—yes.
SH: How many times have you been to Plato's Retreat?
Jeremy: A LOT. I can't give you the numbers but I really did go there a lot just to hang out with Larry. They had a nice buffet, and then I'd just go and sleep on the mattress because I had an early appointment in the morning in New York. He was so good to me, because he'd let me park my car. It's so hard to park in New York. It was $40 to park even back then. He would let me park my car for free at Plato's and I'd run around trying to get into the theater, or trying to get into plays or comedy clubs and all. He was right in the middle in midtown when he left the Ansonia Hotel and went over to 34th Street. It was great! He couldn't have begged for a better place. It was so perfect to leave my car there, or leave my motorcycle there, and we'd run around and do our things.
We spent hours talking. There was sex going on and that. We would hang out in the mattress room. It was just a very comfortable atmosphere: food, lovely showers, a Jacuzzi, a pool—it was just a great place to hang out. Okay, if you're going to have sex that's great, too, but if you don't, there's a Jacuzzi, a pool, you've got a buffet, you've got a great TV set to watch a movie. It was a real nice place to go at night for people who don't have jobs in the morning.
SH: In the behind the scenes portion of American Swing, you mentioned something about spiritual monogamy, which doesn't equate with physical monogamy. Can you expound on that?
Jeremy: Me and Gene Simmons both said this on The View a few weeks apart. A lot of Hollywood celebrities are known swingers, I guess. I won't give you any names but Gene and I believe we can be emotionally monogamous to one person only but physically non-monogamous, where there's some kind of relationship outside the marriage which is agreed upon by both husband and wife, or boyfriend and girlfriend.
SH: Are you in such a relationship now?
Jeremy: Right now, I'm not.
SH: Having been a porn star for several years, I'm sure you've been exposed to different alternatives than a typical monogamous relationship. Nina Hartley was involved in a triad relationship with her husband and another woman for many years. Do you have such incidences in your past relationships? Care to share any stories with us?
Jeremy: I didn't have it quite like her. I was married to three people but I'd say pretty much most of my life…in fact, the vast majority of my relationships—I've had five serious relationships—in all those, it was agreed upon that while I was traveling a bit that we could have physical relationships with others unemotionally. As they call it in rock n' roll, some "strange" is okay but no walking on a park holding hands, no going to a mountaintop looking at the scenery, no taking a boat ride together or a canoe ride, no cuddling, no romantic candlelight dinners—that's bad, no. That would make me jealous. If I had a wife or girlfriend, or when I had relationships, if they messed around physically I could handle that; we agreed upon that. If they cuddled overnight, it'd break my heart; it'll kill me.
SH: Quoting you from American Swing again, you said women seem to initiate and propagate one-night stands nowadays whereas men did so in the past…
Jeremy: Women do it now all the time. We even have a term that never existed when I was a kid, an expression called "boy toy," where the girl knows it's a physical thing and goodbye. I think it's great. I've seen guys call me on the phone and say, 'Man, we had great sex, she seemed to really enjoy it and I want to go out with her again. She just stopped talking to me, she avoids me, she's not seeing someone else.' 'Well, she had a good time and she ran. You were a one-night stand. Congratulations.' Back in my generation, guys did that a lot. It's nice that girls caught up with that aspect.
Let me tell you something: I've never seen a case in my life where a woman couldn't slam dunk any number of guys whether they're in their 40s, 50s or 60s. Maybe there are a few exceptions out there but I'm going to make a generalization I'll stand by: A woman's sex drive, a woman's libido, and her sexual power can destroy a man. I've never seen a man that can keep up. In fact, now with Viagra maybe they can, with Cialis.
The whole thing about sheikhs having many wives, and some of these polygamists... you've got to be kidding me. In reality, a wife can have many men and she won't be satisfied. In a weird way, that one sheikh that can satisfy lots of women can barely satisfy his hand! Whereas one woman can probably satisfy many men when they reach their 40s, 50s or 60s, because her sex drive is way more powerful. Men lose it in their 40s and dang, women aren't even started yet. I've never seen a case where—I'll arbitrarily start at 40—a woman wasn't more powerful than the man. The woman wants to go longer whereas the man, after he's treated to a nice orgasm, he wants to release gas, burp and sleep till Christmas. [laughs]
SH: If men can't apparently keep up with a woman's libido, why do you think this fantasy exists of a man having several women at once?
Jeremy: Every guy I've talked to, according to my dad who's 91, who still messes around as if he was a young man of course, they're still wanting some good nookie, even through their 80s and 90s.
SH: Men shouldn't be that jealous of women. Men seem to age better than women.
Jeremy: That's because society is just making them look that way, which is also really unfair if you think about it. Only in Hollywood can a man be a grandfather and still get a romantic leading role—look at Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones. When a woman gets past 30, she can barely get new roles anymore. Hollywood, I think, gives a very bad attitude. A woman can be sexy until they drop. I think women age just as well as men do, if not even better. It's that masculine attitude: a man keeps better looking as he gets old, a woman can't. Yeah, who wrote that rule? Probably a guy! [laughs]
SH: Who knew you were such a feminist!
Jeremy: My mom was probably an original feminist. I was born and raised by a woman who was in the OSS [Office of Strategic Services] in World War II, who essentially made her a spy. She was given a cyanide capsule in case she was captured; she was given an honorary rank of lieutenant, in case she was captured she would have been treated with respect by the enemy. Being a Jewish woman, she would have had a hard time being captured by the Germans. She flew all over the world as a decoder, a cryptographer, and a spy.
She came back to America and worked at the New York Times as a classifier; she was a proofreader for various publishing houses; she was going to become a third grade teacher if it wasn't for Parkinson's. This was a woman who graduated from Queens College, which is where I went. First graduating class of Queens, because a lot of women back in that era did not go to college; it was very rare. She raised three children, too. I dedicated my autobiography to her; in the first few pages, I praised my parents for raising three kids who don't touch drugs, who don't drink, who don't smoke and who all have Master's degrees. I was raised by an original feminist, which may have shaped my opinions.
SH: What do you ultimately want to do in the remaining time that you have?
Jeremy: I want to get married and have children. I know it's late in life. I'm ready to have kids; I've saved up for it. Ultimately, I love doing movies. I want to be an actor until the day I die.

Here we are in the chorus dressing room, as described in my post about the Randy Bachman Vinyl Tap Tour.
Who the heck is Ron, you ask? He was another lucky fan, who'd come to the concert without his wife. We teamed up, Ron and I, and he wound up sitting with Mitchell and me during the concert. We don't know his last name, but he was a fine concert buddy, and we wish him well.
And now, back to your regular scheduled programming.

Dirt tank concerned with my play sand cap.
So my tank has 1-1.5" of aquarium soil along with a 0.5" silver (play) sand cap. It has MTS digging around. I'm concerned that I've gone the wrong way with the sand and that it will compress closing off the dirt to O2. However this might only be in regards to sand caps more than 1". I only have small fish in ATM so it might be easier to sort it out now.
Plants seem to be doing okay after 1 month and I don't have dirt breaking the cap even when I've pulled out a couple of plants. Am I worrying over nothing.
So should I just leave it and see?
Should I vac up a bit of the sand to have the minimum cap?
Should I strip it down and start again with gravel cap?
leave it. i have the same thing in one of my tanks.i havent had problems. roots will bring o2 into the substrate same for the mts. if you are worried you could always poke around it when doing water changes.
oh wait is that the super fine sand?
should be alright just keep an eye on it.
I agree with rexpepper. It will be fine. When I had my soil tanks I always had about an inch of sand on top of it. Never any issues with it.
Thanks I'll keep it the way it is and keep an eye on it. How will I know if its gone bad? Mass die off?
I'm going to keeping stock as it is as it will be a lot easier to change if it does go bad. Any idea what the safe time frame would be? Extra stocking is only going to be three honey gourami and was hoping to wait another 2 months before adding them anyways.

Attorney General Bob Cooper today reminded eligible Tennesseans that the deadline to file a claim form to receive a payment under the national mortgage settlement is this Friday, Jan. 18, 2013.
Approximately 37,000 Tennessee borrowers who lost their home to foreclosure between Jan. 1, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2011 may be eligible to receive a payment under the settlement, but only if they file a claim. Eligible borrowers had mortgages serviced by Ally/GMAC, Bank of America, Citi, JPMorgan Chase or Wells Fargo, the nation's five largest mortgage servicers which agreed to the settlement with the federal government and 49 state attorneys general last year.
"The deadline to submit a claim form is just days away," Attorney General Cooper said. "We know there are still thousands of eligible Tennesseans who haven't stepped forward. I urge anyone whose mortgage was serviced by one of these five banks and who lost their home to foreclosure to contact the settlement administrator immediately."
Attorney General Cooper urged eligible Tennesseans to complete their claim forms and return them as soon as possible in the envelope provided, or file them online at www.nationalmortgagesettlement.com by the Jan. 18 deadline. The national settlement administrator sent the initial claim form packets to eligible Tennesseans in September and October 2012. On Dec. 26, 2012, the settlement administrator mailed reminder claim form packets to all eligible borrowers who had not yet submitted a claim form.
Foreclosed Tennessee borrowers who have questions or need help filing their claim should contact the settlement administrator at (866) 430-8358, or send questions by email to email@example.com. The information line is staffed Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Central Time. Spanish-speaking representatives are available. "Eligible Tennesseans are not giving up any legal rights to pursue other legal remedies if they decide to participate in this claims process," Attorney General Cooper added. "This payment is intended as partial compensation for the mortgage servicers' illegal conduct and servicing abuse." Payment checks are expected to be mailed in mid-2013. The exact payment each borrower receives will depend upon the total number of borrowers who participate by filing a claim.
Attorney General Cooper also warned borrowers to be on the lookout for potential scams connected to the national mortgage settlement. Consumers should ignore any solicitations for upfront payments, and should not to provide personal information to anyone who calls or emails claiming that they are providing settlement-related assistance.
Tennessee borrowers who are still in their homes but struggling to make their monthly mortgage payments can call the State of Tennessee's free Mortgage Assistance Hotline at (855) 876-7283 to be directed to free foreclosure prevention counseling and other assistance programs. For more information, go to www.tn.gov/attorneygeneral or www.nationalmortgagesettlement.com.

November 4th, 2011
While you're frying up some eggs and bacon, we're cooking up something else: a way to celebrate today's food holiday.
Can you feel the sugar rush? - November 4 is National Candy Day!
Unless you're still reeling from an influx of sugar because of extensive trick-or-treating or candy shoveling, this has to be one of the best food holidays of the year. Plus, now is the absolute best time to wipe the grocery store shelves clean of any leftover (and heavily discounted) Halloween candy.
Candy has evolved over the years but we've been using that word since our days of speaking Middle English (care for some Chaucer, anyone?). The word was derived from Old French, meaning "cane sugar." The ever-inventive American spirit prevailed and we expanded from chomping on cane sugar to chocolate, caramels, candy bars, sours, licorice, tarts, taffy, lollipops, gumdrops and the list don't stop.
So go ahead and join the Lollipop Guild for the day - although we're thinking that dentists might regard this as either D-Day ... or a prime business opportunity.

This is the best time to buy a CUV. Today, there are more CUV options available to you, and you will have little difficulty finding the best CUV to suit your needs.
Whether you are seeking a personal or family vehicle, you will find that today's CUVs offer a lot of spectacular features.
What To Look For in the Best CUV
A CUV is actually defined as a crossover utility vehicle. This differs from a sports utility vehicle or an SUV. An SUV is a vehicle option that consists of either a unibody construction or a body on frame vehicle. The CUV is a vehicle that is a body on frame offering and it is an SUV like vehicle affixed to a car chassis. Today's CUVs are vehicles that have a two box body styling and architecture fitted on a unibody. The CUV is a vehicle that is car based, but it offers the spaciousness of an SUV.
If you are seeking a vehicle that is as large as a sports utility vehicle, but that is not as rugged, you can opt for the best CUV on offer today. These vehicles are not necessarily ideal for off roading, but they make for a very comfortable and safe ride. You will find that when comparing a CUV to an SUV that the SUV sports a great ground clearance than a CUV. Meanwhile, the CUV is a vehicle that is designed for comfort.
When shopping for a CUV, comfortable features are on the top of one's checklist, but safety features and the average miles per gallon that the vehicle delivers should also be considered. You will want to determine your budget before you buy; this will allow you a chance to seek a CUV that is in your price range. You should also look for incentives, rebates, and specials as you shop; you can end up saving quite a bit of cash by doing so.
The Best CUV Offerings for 2011
2011 Kia Soul
One of the best CUV offerings for 2011 is the Kia Soul. The 2011 Kia Soul base four door CUV has a spectacular MSRP price of $13300.00, thereby making it a tremendously affordable vehicle option. This vehicle has not been changed since the 2010 model. It offers 26 miles per gallon in the city and 31 miles per gallon on the highway. It houses a 122 horsepower 1.6 Liter Inline 4 base engine with a dual overhead cam. It comes with a five speed, manual transmission with overdrive. The exterior of the Kia Soul is attractive and appeals to a youthful market. It is suitable for five passengers, and it is fitted with frontal, side, and side curtain airbags. This vehicle also has traction control, an occupancy sensor, seatbelt pre-tensioners, adjustable seats, halogen headlights, exterior light controls, power door locks, ignition disable features, low tire pressure warning features, and rear child safety door locks. For full details visit http://autos.aol.com/cars-compare.
2011 Chevrolet Equinox
Another vehicle identified as the best CUV option for 2011 is the Chevrolet Equinox. The Equinox AWD LS has an MSRP that has changed little from the 2010 to the 2011 configuration; the 2011 model is roughly $24500.00, and is about a $150.00 more than the 2010 offering. In terms of the base engine in both models, the car maker has continued to offer the 182 horsepower, 2.4 Liter Inline 4 Ecotec engine with a double overhead cam. Both models deliver 20 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. Both the 2010 and 2011 Equinox come with an automatic transmission too. The 2011 model gets a GPS inclusion with OnStar® features, but the 2011 offering has turn by turn navigation whereas the 2010 is absent of such a feature. Last year's model and this year's offering are equipped with front, side, and side curtain airbags, occupancy sensors, traction control, stolen vehicle tracking, remote keyless entry, panic alarm, door locks, and low tire pressure monitoring. For more details visit http://autos.aol.com/cars-compare.
Honda CR-V
If you are searching for the best CUV option, take a look at the Honda CR-V. This vehicle has maintained a reasonable MSRP for five years now. In fact, the 2007 Honda CR-V had an MSRP of $20600.00, while the 2011 model maintains an MSRP of $21695.00. What's more, the 2011 model offers 21 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, which has diminished little from the fuel efficiency offered in the 2007 models that offered 23 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway. The 2011 offering maintains the 2010 base engine of a 180 horsepower, 2.4 Liter Inline 4 with a dual overhead cam, which is an upgrade from the engine found in the 2007-2009 base engine of a 166 horsepower 2.4 Liter Inline 4 with a dual overhead cam. All models continue to have an automatic transmission with overdrive. Like all Honda CR-V offerings, the 2011 model can seat five passengers. This vehicle has frontal, side, and side curtain airbags, occupancy sensors, traction control, illuminated entry, remote keyless entry, power door locks, rear child safety locks, ignition disable, and low tire pressure indicators.

How did I miss this ??? They must have strong legs and need to repave their roads often with all this hard stomping. Why do they march so fast and throw their legs up so high ? Great moustache, it would take me 20 years to get there.
Oh my goodness I forgot about this craziness. I remember I was sitting with a friend from Lahore two years ago and he was showing us a similar video. I think there is nothing wrong with people, excepting they do not think, but the politicians in any country are always the problem. It is a great play.
I also do not see this one, very good...we are all crazy, we must just laugh and not be serious, impossible to be serious with life.
An Indian friend of mine sent me this to share. It is a good example of how everything is really a play, but it looks as if these guards can "play" without shooting each other, they have to to get all the moves right which means practicing together, so if all our government could do the same we would have lasting peace and a great show !

In a situation best described as both awkward and extremely dangerous, Lynsi Burton of the Seattle PI reports this morning that a shooting in Pioneer Square early Tuesday was sparked by oral sex interrupted.
Also, the suspect was reportedly wearing a tuxedo ... which figures.
As Burton details, Seattle police "responded to reports of gunfire about 2:14 a.m. in the area of Fourth Avenue South and South Main Street," Tuesday morning after a couple reported being shot at by "an older man with white hair wearing a tuxedo." Citing police reports, the PI indicates that officers quickly located and detained a man matching the couples description, finding a semi-automatic handgun in his pants. Police also indicated that the suspect appeared "highly intoxicated," according to the PI, and that the couple was not injured.
Sure, they weren't injured, but perhaps they were scarred.
The couple told police they were walking west on South Main Street, engaged in a verbal argument, when they spotted the man, standing in an alcove, receiving oral sex from a woman.
The woman immediately left upon being discovered and the man reportedly grew angry and walked north, according to police reports.
About half a block away, the man turned around and pointed his gun at the couple, saying, "I'm going to kill you," and fired one shot before continuing to walk away, reports indicate.
The PI's story indicates that a witness corroborated the couple's story, and the tuxedo-clad suspect was booked into King County Jail.
Welcome to the neighborhood, Weyerhaeuser.

Styling food at home
Awhile back Lissa posted this comment, and after I finished laughing out loud, I got to thinking about what I do at home:
[M]y idea of styling food is making sure there is no dog or cat fur on whatever I'm serving other people.
When I entertain, which doesn't happen all that often anymore, I always pay attention to the looks of the plates I serve my guests, although I never go so far as to decorate my poultry with flowers. ...
But there is something fundamentally different about how a plate looks at a fine-dining restaurant and how it looks at my house.
If I tried an artistic squiggle of raspberry coulis on a dessert plate, it might seem a wee bit precious to me. But if I served -- say -- a spoonful of chocolate mousse on a plate, I would arrange it artfully (I hope) with another spoonful of softly whipped unsweetened cream by its side.
I go for the artfully natural look, or maybe the naturally artful, at home.
Or maybe I'm just jealous that I don't have the time or patience anymore to pay attention to detail in the kitchen the way I used to.
Is that true of the rest of you (Bucky and jl, you may not respond to this post in any way), or do you enjoy the bells and whistles? There's nothing wrong with that, it's just more trouble than I'm willing to go to these days.

text: Hard to swallow: race-based medicine BiDil 20 October 09 by Karen Bartlett BiDil, the first "race drug", was licensed in the US in June 2005 for the treatment of African-Americans with heart disease. The medication combined the effects of two drugs already in use for patients of all ethnic groups. Hailed by some as the beginning of the end of racial inequality in health, the advent of a "black pill" was greeted with dismay by many others in the medical community. Geneticist Angus Clarke from the University of Cardiff called BiDil "hugely controversial".US doctors who championed the drug pointed to the stark health disparities faced by the black community. "Look at hypertension in African-Americans. Look at heart disease," said Keith Ferdinand from the American Association of Black Cardiologists. He was influential in persuading the black community to support BiDil. "There's more diabetes. Racial disparities as a means of determining what's wrong with medical care in the US are important."Black males between 45 and 64 are at a 70 per cent greater risk of heart failure than whites, and are more likely to develop problems earlier in life. In April 2008, a study appeared to find a gene common to African- Americans associated with a bad reaction to the hypertension drugs beta blockers.Keen to rectify the disparity, Ferdinand and the Association of Black Cardiologists sponsored the African-American Heart Failure Trial (A-HeFT), which, for the first time, demonstrated the efficacy of a heart-failure therapy for the black participants in the study. A-HeFT was crucial to the development of BiDil, a drug that consisted of a fixed dose of two drugs, isosorbide dinitrate and hydralazine, that were designed to raise low nitric oxide concentrations in the blood. In lay terms, BiDil relaxed blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump.But BiDil was not originally a genetically targeted medicine. Instead, it was a product that had been languishing in the drug-development pipeline after an initial clinical trial in a mixed-race group proved inconclusive, and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) declined to grant it a licence. Further analysis of the data, however, demonstrated a significant improvement in black patients (a group usually significantly under-represented in clinical trials). A further sub-group study based on self-identified black Americans demonstrated that, taken in addition to regular treatment for heart disease, BiDil led to a 43 per cent reduction in mortality. The results were so dramatic that the drug was rushed into production by the small pharmaceutical company NitroMed before the clinical trial was even concluded. The results of the BiDil study were welcomed by those who had encountered racial inequality in the US health system, so it was with some fanfare that BiDil was licensed by the FDA in 2005 as the first-ever drug for black Americans. BiDil was also to become the first drug for which cost was determined by skin colour. White Americans, who might also benefit from taking BiDil, would be forced to buy the drug off-prescription, and have to pay more.This difference in treatment disturbs Ferdinand, who believes the development of BiDil as a "black pill" is regrettable: "The fact that BiDil is available to white patients only as a more expensive off-label drug is unfortunate. I hope that [critics] would recognise that scientifically it was a good study. Don't throw out the benefits of BiDil because of the misuse of race as an identifier."Even its harshest critics have not suggested that BiDil is a bad drug. Potentially it could prolong the lives of as many as 750,000 black Americans suffering from hypertension. Their argument is that it could also alleviate the symptoms of four million other Americans with heart failure who do not self-identify as black. Certainly Gilbert Charles feels positive about BiDil. "It has definitely helped," he says. "I have a short nap in the afternoon, but I do much more."The evidence for BiDil's scientific merit is clear, but the marketing of the drug and the usefulness of self-identified racial groupings kicked off a debate between academics, led by Jonathan Kahn, a law professor at Hamline University in Minnesota, who worried that promoting drugs on racial lines is little more than a clever advertising ploy. "BiDil has been cast by many as a step towards individualised pharmacogenomic therapy," Kahn wrote. "However, BiDil emerges as a new model of how a pharmaceutical company may exploit race in the marketplace." NitroMed capitalised on health risks faced by black Americans to gain commercial and regulatory advantage, according to Kahn, who highlighted the fact that BiDil was granted a longer patent by the FDA because it was licensed for black patients.Further research by Pauline Ng at the J Craig Venter Institute revealed a huge genetic variation in how Ethiopians, Tanzanians and Zimbabweans metabolise drugs for psychosis and heart disease. In other words, there is no "African" gene, let alone an African-American gene. Regardless of the science, NitroMed's commercial approach tapped into a growing market for self-identified "African-American" products.Yet BiDil has not been a commercial success. Sales proved lacklustre and in January 2008 NitroMed said it would discontinue promotion of the product. Later in 2008, it unveiled plans to sell the rights to BiDil and it has since merged with another small biotech company. So what went wrong?Industry experts believe that BiDil's failure lies in overpricing and a weak patent that relied on a set dosage of two drugs already on the market. Of more concern to drug makers and social scientists alike is the question of whether racial branding had a positive or negative effect on the drug's performance in the marketplace.When big pharma found its traditional business model cracking, and profits decreasing, BiDil allowed drug manufacturers to consider a different model - a way for pharmaceutical companies to use genetic tools to salvage drugs stuck in development following inconclusive clinical trials. Whereas most large companies would find salvaging drugs too time-consuming, they might profit by turning to partnerships with smaller biotech companies and selling on development rights. (NitroMed had only one drug - BiDil - on its books.) Wayne Rosenkrans of the Personalized Medicine Coalition says: "The old pharma model is under pressure. Personalised healthcare is one of the potential solutions." Markets for genetically tailored drugs are smaller, but could be more profitable because patients are likely to stick with a tailored product. Critics claim that by supporting the A-HeFT trials, and subsequently approving BiDil, the FDA allowed manufacturers to avoid the costs of developing drugs for the entire population and focus their attention on a "niche group" that is easier to study. The larger concern is that developing drugs for a niche population could lead to companies focusing only on those groups that can afford the most expensive treatments.

Cool! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
I've sort of lurked for awhile and now I'm actually starting to put together a Pathfinder campaign. After a bit of diggin' I relized the PF maps weren't what I wanted and would need to make my own. After going through demos for all the programs out there I went back to my copy of GIMP and did some Googling. Which brought me here. In the last couple of days I've learned quit a bit from the people and their threads on here. I hope to learn a lot more while I'm here.
Cool! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
Yay for delurking! Welcome to the lighted section of the Guild. No grues out here

Makes a clutch job on my T56 equipped Camaro a relative breeze. I used it to remove the old 700r4(4l60) years ago, and used it again to install my T56. Used it twice since to replace clutches and I love it. It allows you to tilt slightly and lock it in at a certain angle, so you can take your time and get the dowel pins and the input splines and clutch splines lined up and just slide them together without drama. The T56 is about 140 lbs, it's a heavy transmission, and this jack has no problem with it. Trying to do all that without this jack would be a nightmare. I'd recommend it to anyone. I also very much like the mechanical action as it allows a lot of precision and you can feel resistance. The only issue I have is that the T56 can be a little tricky to get "flat" on this jack, but the ratchet strap helps a lot.

First off if you will only be doing transmission work once in a while this is probably the jack to buy. I did a Ford Aerostar minivan.Removal went smooth, but once in the down position the trans is still 8 or 9 inches off the floor so you probably will have to slide it off the jack an onto the floor. Not an issue if you are just doing a clutch.To re-install things get a little more involved. You now have to raise the tranny 9 inches to get the jack under it. have lots of 2X4's and levers handy you will need them to raise the trans to mount to the jack. Another way would be to have the trans on two long bars and have 4 guys lift it up while you slide the jack under.Also the tilt is virtually useless, and the strap setup is rather difficult to manipulate. You also don't want to crank the ratchet strap too tight. As you tighten the strap it bends the white top. If you go too far you will bend it.So not bad for the money, beats the heck out of trying to balance it on a floor jack, but not for more than occasional use if you have the time to putter.

Phenomenal Mechanics Jack
By Bullrider
from Denton, TX
This jack is essential in changing out a transmission. It not only helps lift a heavy transmission for essential placement during installation, but is also extremely helpful in lowering and removing an existing transmission. It raises to the perfect height and eliminates the worry of manually lifting or lowering this extremely heavy auto part. I am sure I will find other uses for this jack. It was a great bargain from one of my favorite stores!

I bought this jack yesterday and put it to use today. I did put grip tape on the top to prevent the transmission from sliding around. It worked flawlessly. It was on sale and with a 20% off, I was out the door for a great price.I am very happy with the jack.
Very Versatile
By Gopher
from Lynchburg, VA
See all my reviews
I bought this to replace a transmission in a 1989 Caprice. With a bare metal service, the tranny can slide, but that problem can be easily solved with little liquid truck bed liner applied...now no sliding! And like other reviewers have mentioned, the straps are useless. I thought this would be a one-time-use tool, but NO! This thing is versatile:- I have used it to support engines/trannies while changing mounts- I put a several magnetic trays on it, and it's a great roll-around tool/parts organizer while working under the car (keeps everything together)- It's GREAT for working on exhaust systems. It has a "V" concaved spot in the middle for exhaust pipes to sit into, and it won't slide off. Simply lift or lower as needed, and roll forward/backward to separate or join pipes. No more laying on my side, supporting one end of a pipe with my shoulder, while supporting the other end with my leg...all while working on it. And no more just letting the pipe drop!Lifting up and down is a slow process, but believe me, that's a good thing when working on certain things. And unlike hydraulic lifts, there are no seals to go bad! Just grease it every so often.

Works great for the price
By Tom
from Saint Joseph MI
Works great for the money. Used it to pull the transmission and transfer case from my Jeep Wrangler to replace the clutch. I pulled them out together as an assy. Jack handled it well. Made the clutch replacement go smoothly. Will be great for occasional use, but probably would not hold up for daily use. I don't think it is heavy duty enough for that. Just my thoughts on it. I wish it had a little more angle adjustment as well. That being said, it worked great for the job that I had purchased it for. I am very happy with this purchase.

Excellent jack for the price
By Arbes
from Onalaska WI
I bought and used this jack to remove the transmission and differential from my 2008 Cadillac XLR to replace a broken bellhousing. Accomplished this with car on Jack Stands not a hoist. After finding the center of gravity on the trans differential and torque tube I lowered and wheeled it out from under the car with no problem and put back together the same way. Would work well on Corvette as well for Clutch replacement etc. It sure beat paying almost $2,000 to have it done by a shop. Thanks Harbor Freight.

A 22-year-old man is facing attempted first-degree murder charges after allegedly firing at officers responding to a call about a suicidal man.
Police responded just after 5:30 Tuesday night to a home where Dario Murphy was holed up.
Authorities say Murphy stuck his arm out the door with a gun and fired two rounds at officers, who returned fire but missed the suspect.
Police say Murphy then threw his gun out the door, and obeyed orders to leave the house.
He was arrested without further incident, and no one was hurt.

Sensis 1234: Don't say it, text it
The Melbourne office of DDB has launched a TV and outdoor campaign for Sensis 1234, Telstra's 'telephone concierge' service.
The idea behind the campaign, which focuses on Sensis 1234's text service, is that there are some things that are not best said aloud.
"While Telstra customers may already know about the call service, we wanted this campaign to highlight the upside of our SMS service in situations where talking on the phone isn't appropriate," said Geraldine Davys, group manager brand and marketing communications at Sensis.
DDB Melbourne's managing partner Oliver Lynch added: "The changing nature of technology and how we use it has produced some unfortunate side effects. We've all heard things that are inappropriate and wish we could un-hear and this campaign taps into that insight."

@Bern "Like"
Sensis is like a repository of outdated or third class technology and services. It's website is pretty strange. A web search powered by google! Why not just use google?
Like the Sensis operative (no doubt in a call centre in downtown Mumbai) is going to know who would be the best criminal defence lawyer in town.
Nice idea, but only one in three ideas worked for me. I really felt for the poor guy in the pool, but the other two failed to evoke visceral clutch.
A surprising amount of anti-Sensis sentiment so far…but if this is indeed a Google service the 50% plus of Australians with Smart-phones won't want to pay a premium for a Google intermediary.
Perhaps a better creative idea than product?

The challenge
To develop a campaignable idea that could be used across the full marketing mix and encourage prospective students to apply for a place at Dearne Valley College (DVC).
Our solution
The concept started with what we knew about our target audience. Teenagers love their sleep, and at 16-18 most will still live at home, so their bedroom is THEIR space. It offers privacy and is also the place where they can stamp their own individual style.The bedroom photography starts to create a connection through familiarity, and then by adding in the t-shirt with the line "Get up, get on" we start to focus on the 'can do' attitude a DVC student should have.

Andi Dorfman and Josh Murray's Engagement — Romantic Pics From the Proposal!
Andi Dorfman ;and Josh Murray have been engaged for more than two months now, but all of us Bachelorette fans are just seeing what went down during that beautiful Dominican Republic proposal on May 9.
The former pro baseball player — and now Andi's hubby-to-be — got down on one knee after proclaiming his love for his Atlanta lady. Josh's pre-proposal speech may have sounded like a mashup of rom-com one-liners, but we were all for it — and all for that giant engagement ring, too!
Now that the finale has aired, the "After the Final Rose" special is over, and Nick got out his anger with Andi for sleeping with him in the Fantasy Suite, we can all go ahead and enjoy Andi and Josh's adorable engagement.

Re: Mount & Blade
I continued to hunt bandits, before I realized that I can open businesses in all the major cities. I started with a brewery in Sargoth, followed by ironworks in Curaw. Currently I look for new locations to open more breweries, or maybe a vineyard? The weekly profits from my enterprise go directly into funding my army, with the goal of my army upkeep being paid by my businesses. I also started with trading, buying cheap silk on one end and selling it with 300%+ profit on the other, returning with ale which also makes 200%+ profit when I return. Adding some furs and oil to the portfolio.
I start to get some decent cavalry. I already have 4 Sarranid Marmelukes, a Sword Sister and a Swadian Knight plus some Men at arms. Those guys are mental! I don't want to know what they do with me if I'd refuse to pay their wages...
I also released some mercenaries from my services now. They proved to be too expensive in the long run and now I have enough elite troops that I'm ok without them. I also encountered the first time infighting between my heroes in the party. Matheld started a fight with Jeremus. Matheld can 'only' fight, while Jeremus is my surgeon and scholar. When it came to decide between them it was not really a decision. Especially since Matheld thinks that her noble birth makes her somewhat more important than the rest of the unit. My ragtag band of mercenaries still consists almost exclusively of commoners taking up arms, no wonder the noblewoman feels a bit out of place. Jeremus also goes along better with the other heroes in my party, especially Firentis, the disgraced knight. The two of them have quite a bromance going on. Firentis is still getting wounded in each major battle (even in some minor ones), so I assume he had ample opportunity to talk to Jeremus in his function of unit surgeon.
I continued to join and win tournaments. They are enjoyable as long as I don't end up in jousting tournaments. I still have huge problems hitting anything with my lance. I also start to get noted by nobles. I ran across two battles already but when I show up I don't have the option to participate. Do I need to ally with a kingdom before I'm allowed to participate? Also interesting is that the noble with whom I have the best relation so far is King Ragnar of the Nords.
But I start to wonder: how do I actually get siege weapons in this game? Do I have to learn engineering all by myself?

Recently, Sara Rosso posted her series on 101 American Foods, and Kalyn opened the discussion further, asking us all to ponder on what foods we consider to be American. A quick Twitter straw poll netted many of the most immediately identifiable American edibles -- apple pie, burgers, Thanksgiving turkey -- but she closes with a note that, "being from Utah, Kalyn would have to add fry sauce to Sara's list!"
Truly, all food is American food, since America is inclusive of populations from every corner of the globe. But if you want to get down to what is uniquely American, you need to talk about regional foods. After all, what would New England be without clam chowder or lobster rolls? New Orleans brought us jambalaya, gumbo, and the muffuletta, among other delectably rich fare. And tomes have been written on barbecue alone.
Yet, where I come from in upstate New York, there are precious few things I can think of that distinguish it from anyplace else. Buffalo has its wings, Syracuse has salt potatoes, but Schenectady has no culinary claim to fame. So that got me thinking: What did I used to eat back home that I can't get here?
Meanwhile, DPaul, the yeast whisperer, has been on a pizza kick. Our preferred neighborhood pizza joint went out of business recently, and so he has thrown himself into the pursuit of perfecting pizza in the home. To up his game, he got a copy of Peter Reinhart's American Pie: My Search for the Perfect Pizza, which is half travelogue and half cookbook. Within the book, Reinhart outlines recipes for a myriad of kinds of pizza, from the classic Napoletana to Romana to Chicago and, of course, the fluffy Americana that most of us here in the USA know and love. Truly, a quintessentially American food.
It was then that I remembered that we used to get a white pizza in Schenectady, typically topped with broccoli. Here, at last, was something I could never recall finding anywhere else, something utterly unique to my hometown. Some cursory research online (and in Reinhart's book) turned up recipes for "New York-style white pizza" that had some kind of béchamel-like or cream-based sauce on it, but that's not how I remembered it. So I reached out to my friend Kristen back home to ask her what kind of sauce is on our version. "Silly boy," she replied, "white pizza doesn't have any sauce!" It's just ricotta, garlic (fresh or powdered; I prefer fresh), mozzarella and broccoli -- though some people opt for no broccoli. I am not one of them.
For all its simplicity, it has a wonderful balance of richness and lightness and is surprisingly delicious. Enjoy a taste of my corner of America!
Pizza americana dough
Makes four dough balls. Adapted by DPaul Brown from Peter Reinhart's American Pie: My Search for the Perfect Pizza
22.5 oz unbleached bread flour
3 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp table salt or 3.5 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp instant yeast
1/4 c. olive oil or solid shortening
1 c. milk
3/4 c. room-temp water
I suggest mixing by hand versus using a stand mixer as you get a better feel for the dough. You do not get the same tactile experience with a stand mixer, and there's not too much kneading anyway.
Have a large container of room-temperature water than you can dip your hand into. During the mixing process submerge your hand in the container of water; a wet dough will not stick to a wet hand. You want this dough to be fairly wet.
Combine all dry ingredients in a large metal bowl and mix thoroughly; then add wet ingredients to the bowl. (If using shortening, mix it in with the dry ingredients first, combining with your fingers, then add the remainder of the wet ingredients.) Using one hand that has been dunked in to your container of water, mix the dough vigorously. As the dough starts to come together, use your wet hand and scoop under the dough and fold back on itself. You want to grab all the loose flour or scraps of dough. Rotate the bowl 1/4 turn, again scoop under the dough and fold back on itself. Do not be afraid to repeatedly dip your hand in water -- it is counterintuitive, but it works. Continue to work this dough in this fashion, rotating and folding, until it begins to resist to your kneading, roughly four to eight minutes. Let the dough rest for five minutes, then continue kneading for an additional four minutes. Though the dough will appear wet, it should hold its shape. When you touch the dough with a dry hand it should appear tacky, but release.
Using a flexible board scraper, divide the dough in to four equal pieces. Place the dough in freezer bags, with a tablespoon of olive oil. Let the dough rest on the counter for 15 minutes. You can either freeze the dough balls now or place in the fridge for an extended fermentation. I prefer to make the dough two days in advance and let the dough rise very slowly in the coldest part of the fridge. The resulting dough will have built up a lot of gas (be sure to have an opening in the bag) which will result in a pizza with good rise and blistering. You can make the dough for the same day by letting the dough rest for an hour on the counter, then refrigerate for two hours. If you freeze your dough, place the dough in the fridge for two days prior to cooking for the long fermentation. Freezing will also help relax the gluten and make for a softer, fluffier crust.
When you are ready to make the pizza, preheat your oven as hot as it can get with a pizza stone on the lowest rack or on the floor of the oven if possible. Pull the dough out of the fridge roughly one hour prior to cooking. Dust your workspace with flour and flour your hand (top and bottom). Dust the dough with flour and place on the workspace. Form the dough gently in to a round, carefully so as not to degas the dough. If you are comfortable with handling dough, dust the back of your hands with flour, place the dough on the top of your hands and using your knuckles to gently stretch out the dough. Otherwise, gently stretch the dough with your fingers horizontally on your floured surface. It is important to handle the dough gently as you do not want to lose all the gas bubbles you've worked hard to create.
Once the dough is stretched to roughly a 10" round, transfer to a dry, floured peel. Top with your favorite toppings, ensuring that no wet ingredient touches the peel. If you have any wet spots on the peel, the dough will stick when you transfer it to the hot pizza stone. Give the peel a gentle jiggle to make sure it's not sticking.
Apply your toppings, and give the peel another jiggle. Open the oven, and gently jiggle the pizza to the end of the peel, then slowly jerk it back, leaving the pizza on the hot stone. If you are not comfortable trying to slide a made pizza on to a stone, you can make the pizza on parchment paper. You can slide the whole kit and kaboodle onto the stone, then remove the paper after a couple of minutes.
White Pizza with Broccoli
1 ball pizza americana dough
1/4 c. ricotta
several cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 c. mozzarella, shredded*
1/4 c. broccoli florets, blanched, shocked, drained and patted dry
Grated parmesan cheeese
Salt and pepper
Slide the pizza carefully onto the hot pizza stone. Cook until the crust is brown and the cheese on top is melted and beginning to color, 7-10 minutes, turning if necessary to distribute browning on the crust. Remove, rest for 1-2 minutes, then cut with a pizza cutter and serve immediately.
* Fun tip: Instead of grating your mozzarella on a box grater, try throwing the block in the freezer for 30-45 minutes, then using a sharp vegetable peeler to create strips of cheese. They melt beautifully.

SAMC Hawaii Koa: Master Sgt. Talley
October 18, 2013
SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Hawaii - Master Sgt. Melinda T. Talley, the Equal Opportunity adviser for the 500th Military Intelligence Brigade, was inducted into the prestigious Sgt. Audie Murphy Club at Fort Hood, Texas, in 2009.
To her, SAMC means taking care of soldiers and their families, representing the Noncommissioned Officer Corps every day, and contributing to the local community.
"I wanted to become a member because I knew the SAMC board was hard and I wanted to challenge myself to see if I could do it," said Talley. "A positive effect to the whole process was meeting great NCOs at Fort Hood and becoming a part of what the SAMC club did there for the soldiers and the local community.
For her, the most memorable SAMC event she participated in was back in 2011 at the Institute of Human Services in downtown Honolulu.
"We assisted the organization in executing their annual holiday give-away and gift-wrap," she said. "Some of the 500th MI brigade soldiers came out, and we met many families in need who were able to get Christmas gifts for their kids, which made it worth the time and effort spent."
Her advice to soldiers thinking about joining SAMC was to not put off until tomorrow what you can accomplish today.
"The SAMC board is hard, but it's a small achievement compared to what you can actually accomplish in the club if you stay active," she said. "If you're thinking about becoming a member, sooner is better than later. Don't put it off thinking that now is not a good time. The Army won't give you time to prepare for the board. You have to make time. If the board is too hard to work towards, don't think being a member will be any easier."
Note: This is an ongoing series designed to highlight the members of the Sgt. Audie Murphy Club - Hawaii, their accomplishments, and their feelings toward SAMC, the Army, and the community.

Loot lovers prepare for May 31st | Dungeon Siege 3
Posted by Jason in Dungeon Siege 3, Media, PS3, PS3 software, QuickNews on April 7th, 2011
Nothing and I mean nothing, gets me more excited then a game with a lot of loot! Diablo 2 kept me busy for 10 years and it was all thanks to the loot. Dungeon Siege 3 is bringing the love of the hunt back with a random item generating system. Think Borderlands and random rolled values per item. This will make for one heck of a treasure hunt to find the all powerful weapon of mass destruction. Take a look at the latest trailer.

Dungeon Siege III is Upon Us!
Posted by Jason in Dungeon Siege 3, Media on February 5th, 2011
The PS2 had a solid collection of hack and slash games. Baldurs Gate and Champions of Norrath to name a couple. The PlayStation 3 has had a bit of a dry spell in the genre, and things are finally picking up with the release of Two Worlds Two recently, and Dungeon Siege III right around the corner. Let's take a look at the trailer to see what goodness we are in for.

Why Holy Land Franciscans
800 years ago, the Roman Catholic Church entrusted the guardianship of the Holy Land and other shrines of the Christian religion to the Order of St. Francis. This work has grown to include support of schools and missions in the Holy Land, as well as care for refugees and other needy people throughout the region.
Today, it is an honor to serve in the land we call Holy, to follow in the very footsteps of Jesus of Nazareth; to work as a missionary where He Himself preached and taught, to serve the needs of native Christians and pilgrims, and to stand guard at the Holy Places in the name of Christianity.
Pope Paul VI described the Holy Land as the Fifth Gospel, as a means of attaining a fuller, living understanding of the meaning of Holy Scripture. These considerations in the course of centuries have prompted thousands to forsake all for God, giving themselves wholly to his service, even to the point of laying down their lives.
The Franciscan presence in the Holy Land continues to bridge the East and the West, the Eastern Churches and the Catholic Latin Church. It is, and will continue to be, an important cultural presence in the Middle East, in the name of the Catholic Church. And Friars serving in the Holy Land will continue to be prophets of peace and ministers of reconciliation.
But those who become Franciscans for the Custody of the Holy Land must be prepared for a life of self-denial and service to others.
Message from the Custos About a Vocation
as a Holy Land Franciscan

Call for Papers
48th International Congress on Medieval Studies
This session aims to provoke discussion of the vital role monastic culture played in contributing to forms of lay piety in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, a period that we refer to as the "long fifteenth century" in England. While much scholarly attention has been paid to reevaluating vernacular literature written during this period, this panel will focus exclusively on devotional texts written by religious authors for lay consumption. Seeking to further undermine dominant historical narratives, which view late medieval monastic culture as moribund, recent work has tended to focus on elite religious foundations, such as Syon Abbey and St Albans Monastery. This session will consider the role that individual monastic authors played as conduits for the transmission of religious culture to lay readers as a more general phenomenon within the evolution of English religious culture.
Religious writing produced between 1410 and 1530 has traditionally been dismissed as derivative, reactionary or, perhaps most damning, "dull," and this session will challenge this persistent view by acknowledging the importance of devotional literature to the substantial expansion of vernacular literacy in England during the period. Furthermore, by recognizing the continuum between the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, we invite scholars to consider the ways in which these texts take up ideas that query a traditional medieval/early modern divide
Please send abstracts of no more than 300 words and a completed Participant Information Form to either co-organizer of this session by 15 September 2012. Electronic submissions are preferred.

Terriers destroyed by River Hawks, 7-1
LOWELL -- Saturday night at the Tsongas Center, it looked like the No. 12 Boston University men's hockey team was finally going to come out on its collective toes.
After a goal 16 seconds into the game – a tip-in by senior forward Corey Trivino – the Terriers (3-3-1, 2-2-1 Hockey East) completely disappeared, falling to the University of Massachusetts-Lowell River Hawks by a score of 7-1.
Shortly after winning the initial faceoff, sophomore defenseman Adam Clendening's shot just tipped in by Trivino for a quick 1-0 BU lead over the River Hawks (3-3-0, 1-2-0 Hockey East).
Then UML took over.
The BU lead did not last long, with River Hawk forward Joseph Pendenza sending a wrister on a centering pass right by senior goaltender Kieran Millan to knot the game at one 5:43 into the first.
With the Terriers back on their heels, UMass-Lowell took the lead just 55 seconds seconds later at 6:38 on a rebound by forward Derek Arnold. Millan dove to his left to stop the initial shot, but couldn't quite reach Arnold's one-timer to his right.
Neither team scored again for the rest of the period, but thanks to a couple BU penalties and a general lack of effort, the River Hawks collected 15 shots on goal to the Terriers' three.
As bad as the first period was for the Terriers, the second was even worse. UMass-Lowell netted four more goals – and had another waved off – en route to blowing the game open.
UML got it going early, with forward Scott Wilson's tally extending the lead to 3-1.
Eleven short seconds later, UML scored another. River Hawk defenseman Daniel Furlong barely got off a weak shot as he fell down, but Millan, seemingly unaware of his surroundings, let it go by for the 4-1 BU deficit at 1:43.
Relative to the rest of the game, UMass-Lowell then endured a drought for most of the second, with a potential fifth goal waved off without a review. The River Hawks resumed their offensive onslaught at 15:17 when forward Terrence Wallin found the back of the net at 15:47 for the 5-1 lead.
As the period wound down, sophomore forward Sahir Gill – who has drawn praise from BU coach Jack Parker of late – took a slashing penalty, opening the door once again for the River Hawks. BU looked like it would was going to hang on for the rest of the period, but at 19:52.5, UML forward David Vallorani snuck another by Millan to make it 6-1.
That would essentially end the netminder's night, as he would be relieved by senior goaltender Grant Rollheiser to start the third.
The backup didn't fare much better, allowing Arnold's second goal of the game just 3:56 into the final stanza to make it 7-1.
With the extra point in the bag, the River Hawks apparently took it easy the rest of the way, finishing with a total of 40 shots on goal, more than doubling up BU's 19, in the 7-1 final.
7 comments:
This was an unbelievably embarrassing game. Someone on this team needs to step up and get it in line, because obviously Parker, Connolly, and Trivino have no idea what they are doing. I don't know if it is the egos on the team, a lack of cohesiveness, or just plain not giving a s***, but this two-faced hockey team is embarrassing itself and the glory of BU hockey. I don't know why Parker can't control the team anymore, but he needs to step his game up, or he's out. 3 years of not making the NCAA tourney in a 59 team league? Pathetic for the school's tradition and for him as a coach. Step it up Terriers. I'm going to the game at BC next weekend, and you better f***ing show up.ReplyDelete

After seeing Clendening (NOT) play defense, I wish we had the human pylon Warso back.ReplyDelete
I miss the days when games against teams like Lowell and Holy Cross were a given.ReplyDelete
I wasn't at the game last night, so I don't know the exact circumstances, but a top level goaltender can never be described like this:
"but Millan, seemingly unaware of his surroundings, let it go by for the 4-1 BU deficit at 1:43."
I'm not saying last night was his fault... but I've seen a lot of pucks go by him throughout his time at BU that were entirely his fault.
He's an experienced college goalie, but that's it. Certainly not elite. He makes spectacular saves, but an elite goalie shouldn't have to make them, because he's already in position (and on the RARE occasion that he needs to make a miraculous save, he does).
But this team is frustrating. I'd like them to reimburse me for my season tickets. I feel cheated.

I am with Ed. Milan is a poser - the fact that he has the all time record for wins galls me. he played as a freshman on an unbelievable team where got many of his wins. we need him to step up as a senior and he has not done thatReplyDelete
do you think that stooge of an AD, Lynch, has any clue about the glory of BU hockey? he is parker's yes man and parker is there until the day HE decides to retire
but hold on? who will be his hand picked successor? i shudder to think that it will come from his present staff and if you think it is bad now, just wait. there will be no Quinn or Sullivan to get them out of this mire
