Charles Finley
One of the most flamboyant, innovative, and controversial baseball club owners ever!
One of the most flamboyant, innovative, and controversial baseball club owners ever, Finley began as a semi-pro first baseman-manager in Indiana. Near-fatal tuberculosis in 1946 ended his playing career but inspired him to found a life insurance empire. Outbid for the Kansas City A's in 1960 by Arnold Johnson, Finley acquired the team a few months later when Johnson died. The A's had been sending such stars as Roger Maris, Clete Boyer, and Ralph Terry to the Yankees in exchange for washed-up journeymen; Finley immediately suspended dealings with New York and, as his own general manager, soon established a knack for acquiring unheralded talent like Ed Charles and Jose Tartabull.
Finley's first of many feuds with players and managers commenced at the 1962 All-Star break when he ordered Manny Jimenez, who was leading the AL with a .350 average, to start hitting home runs. Manager Hank Bauer took Jimenez's side and was fired after the season. Jimenez slumped and was sent down in 1963. In mid-1967, Finley fined and suspended young pitcher Lew Krausse for "rowdyism," and publicly berated his players over an insignificant airplane incident. A near-mutiny by the players followed. Finley fired manager Alvin Dark, then released Ken Harrelson, the team's best hitter, who had been quoted as saying that Finley was "a menace to baseball." Signed by the Red Sox, Harrelson helped them to the pennant, and won the AL RBI title the following year.
Finley had already established a reputation as a cantankerous buffoon by trading for sluggers Jim Gentile and Rocky Colavito, then building a bizarre "pennant porch" designed to increase their home run production. He later paraded a mule named Charley O about the field, into cocktail parties, and even through hotel lobbies. He relocated the A's Double-A franchise to Birmingham because he was born there. He introduced orange baseballs, ball girls, and a mechanical rabbit that gave baseballs to the umpires. He advocated night World Series games in an effort to boost fan interest.
Meanwhile, Finley signed Jim Hunter and dubbed him Catfish to give him press appeal, concocting a story set in Hunter's childhood to justify the nickname. Finley also signed Reggie Jackson, Sal Bando, Vida Blue, Bert Campaneris, and a host of others who became the nucleus of his Oakland dynasty. He shifted the club from Kansas City to Oakland after the 1967 season in a move he later acknowledged as his one big mistake. In a half-empty stadium, the A's were contenders during 1969 and 1970, then won five straight division titles in 1971-75 and World Championships in 1972-74.
Finley was named TSN Man of the Year for 1972, but continued having disputes with players. After Reggie Jackson hit 47 HR in 1969, Finley, during a prolonged contract dispute, threatened to send him back to the minors. Similar bitterness followed when Vida Blue won the Cy Young Award in his first full season, 1971. Both times, Commissioner Bowie Kuhn intervened to help bring about a resolution. In the 1973 World Series, Finley fired Mike Andrews after the reserve infielder committed two consecutive errors in the 12th inning of Oakland 's Game Two loss to the Mets. Other A's and manager Dick Williams rallied to Andrews's defense. Kuhn forced Finley to reinstate the player. Williams resigned after winning the Series, and Finley replaced him with Alvin Dark.
Under Dark, the A's won another World Championship in 1974. But after the season, Catfish Hunter was declared a free agent by arbitrator Peter Seitz because Finley had failed to make contractually stipulated payments for Hunter into an insurance annuity fund. Even without Hunter, the A's easily won their division in 1975. In the spring of 1976, Finley traded Jackson to the Orioles. During the season, he tried to sell Joe Rudi and Rollie Fingers to the Red Sox and Vida Blue to the Yankees, and did sell Paul Lindblad to the Rangers. In desperate financial trouble because of low attendance, Finley claimed he needed the money to sign free agents and rebuild. Kuhn disagreed, voiding the sales of Rudi, Fingers, and Blue as not being "in the best interests of baseball." Kuhn later voided another sale of Blue, to the Reds. Meanwhile, major league players won the right to play out their options, and seven A's did so in 1976. Despite the uncompensated losses, Finley rebuilt, and the A's were en route to yet another division title in 1981 when he sold the club to the Levi-Strauss company.By Baseball Library

Cary's Pat Ambrose grateful to coach Stevenson boys basketball team
CARY – Here's an idea if you're looking to get out of the house this week.
Don some green and gold, put the kids in the car, and head to Northern Illinois' Convocation Center for the Class 4A DeKalb Supersectional on Tuesday.
Because even though all of McHenry County's boys basketball teams have finished playing, we still have a local connection to a team chasing a state title. Pat Ambrose, head coach of Stevenson, has lived with his family in Cary for the past 12 years.
So let's be good neighbors and jump on the Patriots' bandwagon.
"We don't mind at all," Ambrose said. "There's plenty of room on the bandwagon."
Before we go any further, I should acknowledge Ambrose's only request regarding this column. Ambrose was generous with his time and answered every question that I had, but he wanted to make sure from the outset that I – and everyone – understood that the story here really was about his players, not himself.
In 15 years as a head coach, Ambrose said, he never has had a team quite like this. It's one thing to have talent – six players have been offered Division I scholarships, including three for basketball and three for football, and a couple of others are drawing interest from college programs – but it's another thing to have a group that embraces the concept of teamwork above individual performance.
"Our kids are really great kids," Ambrose said. "They really are. I'm not bashing my team of two or five or seven years ago, but these kids are just terrific, especially with the top ones being as humble as they are.
"They get along well with each other and they work really hard. It's obvious they do click, most of the time. Nothing is perfect, and we work when it's not perfect."
The work has paid off in a big way, as this year's team set a school record Friday with its 30th win in a sectional championship game against Fremd. The Patriots were led in part by junior guards Jalen Brunson and Connor Cashaw, who have developed into some of the Chicago region's best high school players.
Remember when Michigan State coach Tom Izzo visited McHenry this month to watch Stevenson take on the Warriors? He was there to scout Brunson, as have many big-time college coaches in the past few months.
If Izzo or anyone else needs an insiders' scouting report on Stevenson's star players, he should ask the young sons of Pat and Traci Ambrose, 11-year-old Matthew and 10-year-old Evan. Matthew attends Cary Junior High, while Evan attends Deer Path Elementary.
Both boys have brought plenty of friends from Cary to watch Stevenson this season. Ambrose praised his team for how well they have treated his young sons.
"My 11-year-old and 10-year-old, they know what's going on," Ambrose said with a laugh. "Their video games are all set up with Jalen Brunson and Connor Cashaw and Matt Morrissey and the other players. They've got the autographs and they've got the pictures. They know fully well that what they're seeing is amazing stuff."
Morrissey is going to Michigan State, by the way, to play safety for the football team.
A close-knit team can be like a family, as can be the coaching fraternity across the region. Ambrose is friends with many coaches in the Fox Valley Conference, including Dundee-Crown's Lance Huber, Crystal Lake Central's Rich Czeslawski, Prairie Ridge's Corky Card and Jacobs' Jimmy Roberts, among others.
Ambrose was inspired to become a coach by Dick Whitaker, who coached him in the 1980s at Naperville North. Whitaker died 15 years ago and never was able to see Ambrose as a head coach. A week ago Saturday, Whitaker's wife, Arlene, passed away.
It was an emotional week, Ambrose said, because of what Coach Whitaker meant to him and what Arlene meant to Coach Whitaker.
And it's clear that Stevenson means a lot to Ambrose.
"I work pretty hard and I'm a pretty demanding coach, so it often doesn't look like I'm having fun," Ambrose said. "It's just kind of my nature and my personality, I don't really show outward emotion. But I am enjoying it."
So can we.
Hop on the bandwagon.

Mylan Pushes Deal to Ensure Safety of Generic Drugs
Nixon, Alex, Tribune-Review/Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Generic drugmakers and the federal government have a tentative deal that would provide $299 million in new funding a year to the Food and Drug Administration to speed approval of generics and provide for inspections of foreign drug manufacturing plants.
The deal, which could be finalized in coming months, was pushed by Mylan Inc. to ensure the safety of generic drugs made overseas for the U.S. market and to eliminate an incentive to ship American jobs to foreign countries.
"The rigor is just not there (at foreign manufacturing plants) as it is here in the United States," said Heather Bresch, president of Canonsburg-based Mylan, in an interview.
Plants in foreign countries that produce active pharmaceutical ingredients and finished drugs for sale in the United States are rarely inspected by the FDA, Bresch said. That can lead to safety problems in generic drugs and makes it less profitable to produce those drugs in the U.S., she said.
In 2009, the FDA inspected only 11 percent of the more than 3,700 foreign facilities where finished drugs and active ingredients are made for the U.S. market, according to a 2010 report to Congress from the Government Accountability Office. By comparison, U.S. plants are inspected every two years.
That difference means it's more expensive to produce generic drugs in America. About 40 percent of the drugs Americans take are made overseas and about 80 percent of the active ingredients in those drugs come from foreign plants, according to Mylan.
Mylan employs about 2,900 people at a large manufacturing plant in Morgantown, W.Va. Bresch said it costs 25 percent more to manufacture generics in the United States than overseas because foreign plants don't have to meet the same quality standards. …

-"I didn't feel like I had any power last year." - Brooks Orpik (right) on battling injuries last season.
-"I managed to have success last year. But the critics are never going to stop, and I don't expect them to." - Matt Cooke on cleaning up his game.
-Jeff Zatkoff made 18 saves for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins in a 2-0 loss to the rival Hershey Bears.
-Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins defenseman Simon Despres returned to the lineup after missing six games due to an undisclosed injury.
-Evgeni Malkin had two assists for Metallurg Magnitogorsk in a 5-3 loss to Sibir Novosibirsk in Russia's KHL.
-"There are so many games that are so predictable. When do you see a guy fly down the wing and take a slap shot any more? Never." - Former Penguins defenseman Paul Coffey on the state of the game.
-Former Penguins defenseman the great Martin Skoula has joined HC Litomerice of the Druhá liga in the Czech Republic.
-Happy 54th birthday to former Penguins coach Kevin Constantine. Hired in the 1997 offseason, Constantine spent parts of three seasons with the Penguins. In 1997-98, he directed the club to a 40-24-18 record and a Northeast Division title. In the postseason, the team lost in the Eastern Conference quarterfinals to the Canadiens, 4-2. He followed that up in 1998-99 by leading the Penguins to a record of 38-30-14. The club reached the postseason as a No. 8 seed. After defeating the Devils in the conference quarterfinal round, 4-3 - one of the largest upsets in franchise history - the Penguins were eliminated in the semifinals by the Maple Leafs, 4-2. After 25 games and an 8-10-3 record, Constantine was fired early in 1999-2000 and replaced by Herb Brooks. In 189 games as the Penguins coach, Constantine had a record of 86-67-35. His wins are the eighth-most in franchise history.
-Happy 41st birthday to former Penguins forward Bryan Smolinski (right). Acquired in the 1995 offseason along with Glen Murray and a draft pick in a trade which sent Shawn McEachern and Kevin Stevens to the Bruins, Smolinski spent on seasons with the Penguins. In 1995-96, he played in 81 games and scored 64 points. The 1996 postseason saw him compile eight points in 19 games. After holding out to start 1996-97, Smolinski was traded early in the season to the Islanders in exchange for Darius Kasparaitis and Andreas Johansson.
Atlantic Division
-"I'm embarrassed for the game It's coming down to the wire right now. We've just got to trust the people that are involved. I'm embarrassed we are where we're at. That's the best expression I can use." - Devils executive Lou Lamoriello on the lockout.
Northwest Division
-Flames forward Jiri Hudler, currently playing for Trinec in the Czech Extraliga, was hospitalized after suffering a skate cut on his neck. The injury required stitches but was not considered serious.
-Canucks forward Mason Raymond has joined Örebro of Sweden's Allsvenskan.
World Junior Championships
-Penguins defensive prospect Scott Harrington had one assist, two shots and was plus-3 for Canada which routed Germany, 9-3.\
-There's no audio, but check out this smooth shot/pass by Harrington to set up teammate Jonathan Drouin for a goal:
{youtube width="465" height="262"}P8AN1yuxwqE{/youtube}
-We're not goaltending experts or anything, but we think Germany goaltender Elmar Trautmann took the wrong angle here on Canada forward J.C. Lipon:
-Happy times for Canada. Not so much for Trautmann:
-Penguins defensive prospect Olli Maatta had one shot and was plus-1 for Finland in a 5-1 defeat of Latvia. Penguins forward prospect Teddy Blueger had two shots for Latvia.
-Senators defensive prospect Mikael Wikstrand recorded two assists for Sweden which beat the Czech Republic, 4-1.
-Lightning goaltending prospect Andrei Vasilevski made 32 saves for Russia in a 3-2 overtime win against Slovakia.

I'm trying to figure out if the AirDisplay App will work on my iPad. The system requirements for it are:
- An iPad.
- A Windows computer.
- Access to a Wi-Fi network (you'll need Wi-Fi to get the computer and iPad talking)
- A copy of Air Display for your iPad ($9.99, available in the App Store).
- A copy of the Air Display server software for your PC or Mac (free).
I have the all the requirements (I will buy AirDisplay once someone answered this question) but my problem is I am not sure if I have the correct "WI FI network".
My internet connection is like this:
I am sharing my internet connection with my neighbor through a very long ethernet cable for my desktop. They also provide me WiFi for my iPad and iPhone. The router is located in their house, not mine. Does the Air Display work on this kind of network set up?

Set F1re To The Ra1n ( NY Night Rain Ride)
Welcome, you'll learn more than you want to, we'll see to that, so will you.
Welcome to Bike Forums. What kind of bike do you ride?
Well when I bought it about 5 years ago it was a cheapo 26" Next Gen hard tail, 6061 alum. frame from wall mart but I have since taken it apart and re-vamped it with new better stuff part by part custom paint and so on. I use it for bike patrol at a college I work at and average about 20-30 miles a day on it while working and ride 10-20 on my off days so all and all it's a good little light hard tail frame that has held up to allot of miles and abuse. The next plan I have in the near future is some rockshox dart 2 forks to smooth out the front a little as long as I can find them for a good price and making some studded tires for this winter. I am torn though on using steel rivets & washers or the screws shown in this how to Studded Tires: Make your own in 7 easy steps any pref's from anybody?
Try posting your rivets vs screws question in the Bicycle Mechanics forum. I'm sure they can help you there.

Seems every single time Dear Leader opens his teleprompter mouth, every word coming out of it is nothing but a lie. He did so again today…big time. Can you count the number of lies he told today?
It's past infuriating! Here we all are struggling with paying our power, heating, gas, grocery, insurance bills etc…and he has the audacity to gas-bag about all of this today with his never-ending hot-air. We all know what he seeks will make prices go higher at the pumps..therefore everywhere else that oil prices touch…which is wide and far reaching in our everyday lives from the time we wake up to the time we go to bed with each product we use, let alone the nest we reside in.
Here's the story via Fox:
President Obama: "Instead of taxpayer giveaways to an industry that's never been more profitable, we should be using that money to double-down on investments in clean energy technologies that have never been more promising — investments in wind power and solar power and biofuels; investments in fuel-efficient cars and trucks, and energy-efficient homes and buildings. That's the future. That's the only way we're going to break this cycle of high gas prices that happen year after year after year. As the economy is growing, the only time you start seeing lower gas prices is when the economy is doing badly. That's not the kind of pattern that we want to be in. We want the economy doing well, and people to be able to afford their energy costs."
Blah blah blah…and blah. You can read the full transcript here. And Bloomberg's report in the link above for Fox.
Here's Fox reporter Ed Henry today, he got in a good one with Liar-in-Chief's spokesman that spins the lies for him:
White House press secretary Jay Carney had no answer as to why Obama supported tax breaks for oil companies as a Senator in 2005, but now opposes them as President.
Henry: Why did the President vote for the energy bill in 2005 as a Senator that had over $2 billion in tax breaks for the oil industry. They were making a lot of money then too.
Carney: What I can tell you Ed is that the oil and gas companies in this country are making record profits, now, in 2012. The price at the pump is very high and that is plenty of incentive for these companies to continue drill, to continue to explore, to continue to develop energy sources here in the United States and abroad. There is no reason for the American taxpayer to subsidize that activity.
Henry: So why'd he vote for it?
Carney: I haven't examined the vote, or what the prices were at the time, or the whole bill it was attached to. What I know and what the President knows is that this year, 2012, when we are seeing high prices at the pump, high prices in the international oil markets and high profits for the oil and gas companies, there is no reason to continue these kinds of subsidies. Take that argument to the people, I don't think they'll go along with it.
Plus folks, please be aware of what O's EPA did Tuesday to power plants, along with other businesses. If you don't know about this…you really need to read one heckuva great piece of work here from The Blaze.
Thing aren't looking so rosy for Dear Leader when it comes to congress these days…I'd say everyone is running for cover with these two votes.
Last night in the House Obama's Budget measure was voted down 414-0…you can read about it here.
Obama was defeated today regarding his call on oil subsidies, it was voted down in the Senate 51-47. You can read about it here.
A Clue-Bat wouldn't work on Dear Leader…he's 'Stuck on Stupid'…we're paying the price for his policies now…but he'll be paying our price come November!

Drag the stuff that is on the CD onto your Mac somewhere?
What exactly do you want to "download?"
Download is not really the correct word for getting something off a CD. You might copy it or import it, possibly install it, but download implies getting the information off of the internet.

I have the same question. How do I get the music from my CDs copied/imported into my Macbook Pro if I don't have a disk drive? Please do not argue about the language; it's rather obvious what the question from 'dlugos' was meant to convey. I too have music CDs. I have a Mac. How can I put the CD music into my Mac?
Thank you!

If your Mac does not have a CD/DVD slot then you need to buy an external drive. This one should work:

Barney-15E, You have an attitude which goes against the Communities Etiquette:
Be polite, constructive and stay on topic.
William Lloyd answered with just what I needed. Thank you William. I purchased an Apple USB SuperDrive.
Barney-15E, you could have just stated, "You need an external CD drive. Check with the Apple Store or call them for assistance." My expertise is in Medical Laboratory Technology. I'm new to Mac, but not to computers in general. If you were to ask an elemental question regarding my field, I wouldn't use snide remarks to make you appear to be an idiot.
Discussion closed. I will not check here again.

President Obama, Not Todd Akin, is the Extremist on Abortion
The pro-life Susan B. Anthony List has released a powerful ad highlighting President Obama's opposition to a bill in the Illinois legislature that would have protected infants born alive after botched abortions.
The spot is an effective counter-thrust to the ample mileage that Democrats have gained from the "legitimate rape" fiasco. It also demonstrates how powerful perception is in politics. Undoutedly, more Americans today know about Todd Akins' gaffe than about Obama's extreme record on the sanctity of unborn human life. A sign of the times, and of our sound-bite driven political cycle.

Perhaps someday, Freud will be back here as the boss.
"I like to jokingly say that I'd like to be the next Broncos general manager. So if Mr. Elway hears about this, my contact information is ..." Freud said, laughing.
Freud, an 18-year-old senior from George Washington High School, on Thursday got a little help in making that dream happen when he received a $5,000 scholarship from the John Lynch Foundation as one of four "exceptional star of the year" winners for student-athletes with disabilities.
Freud is deaf in his right ear and has significant hearing loss in his left, but said he doesn't let his disability define him.
It certainly has not affected him in the classroom, where he has a 3.97 weighted grade-point average, or on the tennis court, where he qualified for the state tournament three times as a doubles player and at No. 3 singles last fall as a senior.
Freud will attend the University of Colorado Denver this fall and plans to major in business, with a focus on sports management.
"As I grew older, I began to figure out what was going on with me, and there was nothing I could do, so I didn't let it change who I was," Freud said. "I'm proud to say I'm the same person now as I was 10 years ago."
Bill Freud said his son was "just a regular kid" before he was diagnosed with degenerative hearing loss at about 8 years old. Eric's parents first noticed their son would turn his head to try to hear better. The hearing loss was then confirmed by a pediatrician.
It was a startling discovery for the family, which immediately began planning for a future with a disabled child. Would they need to learn sign language? How quickly would Eric lose his hearing? Would the hearing loss prevent Eric from being a normal kid?
Contact sports were out, though Eric played several years of Little League baseball. He quit that sport when pitchers began throwing harder — he didn't want to risk getting hit in the head — and gave up competitive swimming because of the pressure on his ears.
"At a young age, he got some things taken away from him, and that hurt a lot," Bill Freud said. "Just seeing how he turned it around is impressive, because when he was younger, I think he did feel kind of lost and was wondering, 'What will become of me?' He really turned it around, was able to find himself, and has this confidence and assertiveness. There's no quit in him, and that really pleases me."
Playing tennis at George Washington has certainly helped. Eric knew he wanted to excel as a player and a team leader.
"I have a huge sense of devotion to it," Freud said. "I really wanted to help our team. I wanted to be a leader."
This year, Freud moved into his team's No. 3 singles spot late in the season and played his way into the state tournament.
Freud and his family understand there is a chance his condition will worsen and he will lose more of his hearing in his left ear. For now, Freud, who is an expert at reading lips, is looking forward to his final days of high school, graduation and eventually moving into his college dorm.
"He's just a terrific, terrific young man," Lynch said, adding that Freud was also one of 12 finalists for the Lynch Family Legacy scholarship.

Michael Vick is hoping to reduce his 23-month sentence on a federal dogfighting conviction.
His attorney says the suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback has
entered a drug treatment program at the U.S. Bureau of Prisons
minimum security facility in Leavenworth, Kansas.
Vick was moved from Virginia to Kansas earlier Monday.
Vick tested positive for marijuana in September while he was on
supervised release following his guilty plea. According to bureau
policies, residential drug treatment programs take place in units
set apart from the general prison population and lasting at least
500 hours over a six- to 12-month period.
If Vick is granted early release, he could be ready to play in
the 2009 football season, but he is currently suspended without pay
by the NFL.

We understand that the government is keen to support economical transport activities to public and therefore has to take into account consumer's interest. But long-term economic policies are the result of protracted talks and negotiations. They can be tweaked but occasionally as the policy needs to be dynamic and vibrant. Governments normally do not behave in a flip-flop manner; they are required to ensure continuation in the policy direction as inconsistency always harms the economy. The five-year plan for the automobile sector came to an end about a year ago. It envisaged local assembly to increase from 100,000 to 500,000 in five years. The industry is required to be given a new five-year plan. It should have been in place well before the expiry of the last plan. This did not happen. Instead a U-turn was taken in the trade policy last year. The consequences for local car assemblers have been disastrous. In one year, sales have plummeted by 35 percent, affecting 3,300 vendors who employ about 2.2 million workers. However, better late than never.
The question that begs an answer is whether Pakistan needs to be a manufacturer or only a trading nation. With population growing at nearly three percent a year and touching nearly 200 million and with three million coming of age-looking for jobs every year Pakistan needs to push forward with labour-intensive industries if it does not want more armies of unemployed youth - an ideal fodder for terrorist groups. Auto assembly is widely considered the backbone of engineering sector. Car assemblers, therefore, need to move towards higher automation and enhance robotic capabilities to improve quality and remain competitive. However, it is their auto part suppliers who employ a lot of people and also provide hope to become exporters for assemblies abroad. These vendors provide a stable supply to local assemblers involved in the production of branded cars. They can increase their output to provide same parts to car assemblers abroad. All the parts cannot be produce locally for some of them need enhanced precision and finesse. Therefore, there is a well-thought out deletion programme approved by the Engineering Development Board. The tariff has to correspond to the agreed programme. Here lies for greater value-addition than we find in exporting commodities or coarse yarn.
Used cars are imported under the baggage gift and transfer of residence schemes. Country's reserves must not be employed or geared towards footing the bill of these vehicles. Representatives of importers scout around for the Pakistani expatriates to use their names for undertaking commercial imports. Payment for purchase is effected through non-banking channels. Connivance of customs officials is rampant not only to steal from the exchequer but also valuable foreign exchange is wasted on imported car parts as well as complete old engines under scrap.
On the other hand, however, you have recognised and branded units paying their full dues to the exchequer. Black-marketing and premium payment for early delivery have been a menace that the assemblers need to address. They should invest in increasing output and also try to reduce cost and avoid raising prices to give the present government a face-saving for taking the right decision. It is also about time that the agreed long-term plan for auto sector for the next five years is put in place and strictly adhered to. Last but not least. One of the greatest stumbling blocks towards signing of a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between two big emerging economies of the world - China and India - is the vulnerability of latter's auto industry in the face of a stiff challenge from abroad. India's policymakers fully appreciate the fact that mass production of their most economical car, Maruti, will come to a virtual halt if they allow the entry of non-tariff Chinese cars into the Indian auto market. In the context of Pakistan, however, there exists no such bilateral trade proposition. But the threat the mass import of used cars poses to country's infantile auto sector is no less serious.

When one caresses another's genitalia with their thigh in order to give them sexual pleasure.
Dan received a thigh job on prom night.
by XoPowerfulWomanoX July 11, 2008
Thigh jobs aren't limited to women of large size. Weight, and ability or willingness to suck dick have nothing to do with it. A Thigh Job is when *anyone* wraps their thighs on a cock and wiggles.
Jim really gave me a great thigh job last night; even though he has skinny legs he grips like a vice.

Place of birth: Columbus
Date of birth: Dec. 12, 1975
Title: Campus president,
Harrison College
Education: Bachelor's degree in business administration and human resources from Indiana Institute of Technology and a master's in adult and community education from Ball State University.
Family: Married with seven sons, four still at home. Five of the sons are stepsons.
Hobbies: Writing, reading and doing outdoor activities with the kids.
Community involvement: Vice president of the Eastside Community Center; board of directors for Leadership Bartholomew County; member of the Financial Literacy Coalition; member of the Corporate Volunteer Council.
● What would you like the community to know about Harrison College?
We work with our students and are so close with our students that it's like a family here. Many are first-time graduates in their families. About 85 percent of our students are working in the field when they graduate, and most stay in our community.
● What was your first job?
I worked as a cashier for Ahlemeyer Farms Bakery.
● What primary lesson did you learn from that job?
I learned I was much better at the cash register than baking, and the woman there reminded me of that all the time.
● How did your leadership capabilities develop?
I am really very lucky that I work at Harrison College and I was able to take advantage of professional development opportunities. I was also given a large amount of responsibility at a young age. I was the youngest executive director at the age of 27. You just learn a lot by doing it.
● What are some of the greatest leadership lessons you've learned?
Goal-setting is very important. With people, you have to lead by example. You need to be true to your heart and be full of honesty and integrity and stand for what you believe. If you do that, they will follow you.

Continue to do anything to educate yourself. Take advantage of professional development opportunities, scholarships and networking.
● What about advice to young people wanting to get involved in their communities?
I would say to start early. Join Columbus Young Professionals and volunteer.
● What is the importance of higher education?
A lot of people get a degree just to get a career. But you're also here for self-esteem and to grow knowledge. It's bigger than just your career. It's what you know, how you interact, how you process what's going on in your society and how you make decisions about more than just your job.
● What's your favorite place to visit and why?
The Caribbean. The water looks like it has food coloring in it, and it's beautiful and relaxing.

Editor's note: All summer long, the Southern Foodways Alliance will be delving deep in the history, tradition, heroes and plain old deliciousness of barbecue across the United States. Dig in.
There's been some big food and drink news on the campaign trail of late, from Paul Ryan's catfish-noodling hobby to President Obama's home-brewed "White House Honey Ale." They got me wondering if barbecue had ever taken center stage in a presidential campaign. (Well, since this one.)

(Travel + Leisure) - Convenient as they are for a quick bite, hotel restaurants can get a bad rap for uninspired menus and bland atmosphere — sometimes, deservedly so.
But there's been a countervailing trend gathering strength since the mid-'90s, and some of the hottest restaurants are now opening in hotels, proving to be destinations for locals and tourists alike. As Spanish chef José Andrés says, with "so many great dining and drinking experiences in hotels, it is bringing back a golden age when hotels were the only places to meet out for a dinner."
Savvy hoteliers like Ian Schrager, Andre Balazs, and Steve Wynn were among the pioneers, seeing the possibility of luring guests with high-concept design and high-caliber culinary talent.
