I've successfully got e200tool identing my bricked View. Please help me finish it!
Falcon@VirtualXP ~/e200tool # ./e200tool.exe init e200tool v0.2.3-viewmod (c) by MrH 2006, 2007 Searching for device 0781:0720 ... found! Setting configuration 1... Success! Attempting to claim interface 0... Success! Using interface 0. Initializing USB stub (4780 bytes) ... done!
I've had a bricked View sitting in a change drawer for over a year now. I used to have some issues with power management and hanging, that no amount of reformatting/resetting would fix... so I decided to try completely erasing the drive using a hex editor, so it'll completely re-initialize itself from scratch. Before doing so, though, I backed the entire physical address space up to a flat file, in case I messed something up. Yep. It bricked it. Apparently the boot ROM is accessible in user-space, so clearing the partitionable area also destroyed its boot ROM. HOWEVER, it's still sitting right there in that backup file, if I could just find a way to push it back to flash!
I'm so close to getting this thing unbricked. And if I can get this unbricked, I'll contribute the backup image, the modified e200tool code, and any other information to help unbrick any other Views out there.
I spent this morning fighting with libusb's dirt-poor documentation (pretty much none whatsoever - the reference pages basically saying "to use this function, use this function."). I finally got it to stop giving me "Invalid argument" on usb_claim_interface, by calling usb_set_configuration to "1" first - not "0" as I had originally suspected. It wasn't until I found "testlibusb-win" that I was finally able to uncover the parameters I needed to feed libusb's functions... /facepalm
But I finally got it working, at least to the point of uploading goofed-up USB loader code to the device. That prompts me to wonder: could I upload the initial bytes of the saved ROM image instead? Maybe get that "16MB_FORMAT" drive to appear, and I could upload the rest from there? I think we're really on the right track here, and thought it was worth sharing.
(I think the most impressive thing is, besides holding on to my bricked View knowing I'd find a fix some day, is that I'm a PHP coder, not a C++ coder - man, this stuff is complicated! )

e200tool uploads a program to PP based CPUs over USB and then communicates with that program by issuing it commands. The program is present in "arm_code.c". If you want to run code on a different CPU then the PP5024 (used in the e200v1), then you'll need to update arm_code.c for whatever CPU the View uses. Otherwise its just going to crash as soon as e200tool runs since it won't be able to run the PP5024 program.

Thanks for the reply! Almost had the View figured for a lost cause for lack of activity in View topics, first ray of light I've had so far
Yeah, I figured that's how it works, by uploading a program and running it to interface with the PC-side application. My first attempt was to upload the bootloader code itself and hope it a) fits, and b) runs long enough to expose 16MB-FORMAT to the PC. No such luck, it craps out at ~69kb. I added a functionality to the e200tool that allows me to "init" a certain segment of the stub code, which I had replaced with the bootloader as a test... so I could do "e200tool init 0x400" to send only 1024 bytes. Any less than 69kb and it will finish, but nothing happens (doesn't drop USB, nothing). Now that's the curiosity.
I think the compiled loader/interface stub for e200tool is actually running on the View, as evidenced by being able to upload non-executable code and having the View hang, instead of resetting & dropping the USB bus connection. Part of the stub execution is to reset the USB bus under a different VID/PID, and I think it's getting hung up on, perhaps, initializing the wrong buffer or address space for USB usage... that may be where it's getting screwed.
There is one huge void on the internet during my searches, and that's any sign of e200tool development discussion. That would be *very* useful to know, just how e200tool came to be, how these paths were discovered and how I could re-discover them on the View. I'm no c++ dev, but I'm really dedicated to finding a way to fix this thing, not to benefit myself, but to fill that void on the internet of "awh, bricked your View? Send it to SanDisk and cross your fingers!"
edit: I think as a basic "building block" step, I first need to figure out how to compile the original arm_code.c file such that it produces the same "black box"-style result of dropping the USB connection... *then* what I'd do is play with avoiding re-initializing the USB, perhaps see if I can make it repeatedly belch "testtesttesttest..." over the USB line, and listen for that within e200tool. If that works, I can start dumping more diag info, build little blocks of the e200tool's ARM code back up, and eventually find the place it's hanging at
edit: Kind of a crapshoot, but I just tried duplicating backup Flash image to a physical-appearing mounted VHD file -> Acronis Disk Director -> resize 8gb data partition to 1gb -> move 40mb hidden partition to end of 1gb partition (same as it would be otherwise) - now the drive has 7gb of free space -> raw-copy the VHD to a 4gb MicroSD card -> try booting from SD card in case it'll fall back to alternative bootable media. No dice... same manufacturer mode.

edit: Well, a little bit of progress... I modified e200rpatcher to take the place of e200tool and add one much-needed bit of functionality: read from a file, send to device. "e200rpatcher my_compiled_app.bin" will send that file to the device via the manufacturer-mode system. And so far, that manufacturer-mode thing consists basically of this: "how many bytes to expect" (in one USB write request), then loop through the data to be sent, 64 bytes at a time. Any less and it hangs the device for some reason (so I guess it's accepting the data!). Huge PITA was having to write-in the debug functionality to figure out where it was hanging, by sending 63 bytes instead of 64. /facepalm

Might just change this thread title to "I've successfully unbricked the world's first fully erased Sansa View"... I'm confirming it right now, but I'm RUNNING e200tool ON MY SANSA VIEW right now! "Write", "Run", everything... and you WILL NOT BELIEVE how simple the solution was... it was an issue of memory addressing - in fact, the program ONLY loads when using the wrong CPU type (arm7tdmi for e200, instead of ARM1176JZ-S in the View).
After it loads, though, the program performs completely flawlessly with... well, I don't even recall making any modifications! The lazy can just re-import the generated hex code into e200tool, edit the launch address to 0x10F00000 instead of 0x10600000 (thanks), and run "e200tool recover bootLoader.rom", while the power switch is on Hold and holding down the Home button (so it doesn't try to access the Flash firmware, which doesn't exist).
I'll post more details soon, but I just lit up the apartment with shining "GLEE!" after seeing the screen turn on again for the first time in over a year, showing the Sansa logo and some debug text for recovery-mode. But yep... I think this is it!
edit: ... if I could just find a way to write to the Flash chip... I've got all the ability to run all the code I care to run, but I just can't find a way to write to the Flash so I can get it working again... sheeit. Sadly, e2tplus doesn't play as nice with the View as e200tool itself does... commenting-out the "ata_init()" in the main function allows it to start, but I spent about 2 hours debugging compiler issues... if -lgcc is used, I get a critical error about not finding "crt0.o" (as always - even though nothing on the entire hard drive even references crt0.o). If not, the program can't do division. Makes no sense. :/

Fun fun. Yeah, having a fun time trying to get the e2tplus stub to work properly on the View... pretty much worked fine "stock" with the original e200tool, but e2tplus just gags to death on it. Out of the box, it turns on the LCD to a scrambled image (since it didn't even intend to turn the LCD on), and hangs. If I disable (comment out) writing to GPIOD during sd_card_mux(), it seems to work better. The program runs, as I found a way to blink the button LEDs thanks to that GSoC wiki page, and I modified the led_on() code to utilize it to show me the error conditions it was trying to report. Now when I run it, it's constantly blinking and restarting whenever USB is plugged in. Working on cleaning up the code and removing the unnecessary "device identification" strings, but I kinda think I have a better bet with a different option.
The big issue we've got is that sansa.fmt has no effect when placed on the 16MB-FORMAT RAM drive. It ignores the file and just reboots. But the code is still there in the loader to re-initialize the Flash, I just need to find a way to trigger it! I know what I'd need to do: take a "jump" command for something like, say, where it prints on the screen that it's in USB 2.0 MSD mode... and change that jump to point to the "initialize Flash" routine instead. Then it would just immediately start erasing when I run it, and we'd be done!
Unfortunately, the disassemblers I've found so far (rockbox's "arm_disass", "disarm", and "ARMu") are really not up to the task. They jumble up string data with the code data, become offset and start showing gibberish instructions, and don't allow me to emulate a memory map for debugging (so I could hit "run" and watch what it's doing to the memory area)... I'm still crunching away at it, though.
I spent a few hours "bit-banging" the NAND startup routine from the e2tplus code, and found a bit of a curiosity: it was playing totally "dumb". All the registers would return to 0 with no result, but the fact that they would be semi-persistent is certainly curious. For example, I could write an instruction to a register and then immediately read it back, it would still be there. But a few writes later it would disappear, although there is still nothing in the result and status registers. Not sure if it's because I'm entering commands too slowly, though... or maybe the disconnect-and-reconnect of USB. Still, may be making progress here...
Hey, something I'm actually curious about, though...
What's up with people saying "OMG, DON'T FORMAT YOUR 16MB-FORMAT PARTITION!!"...? The 16MB-FORMAT partition is a purely virtual, RAM-based device, which is the entire problem I'm having right now... it frustrates me to no end every time I see someone rambling in bold print about using Windows' format utility on the 16MB-FORMAT drive. If it were actually tied to Flash, I'd be done with this by now
Is the 16MB-FORMAT drive actually physical on some e200 models? Or is that just a huge, endlessly perpetuated misconception? :P
edit: Progress... I've got e2tplus up and running with the Flash code and ata_init() running on startup. After adding a lot of debugging light-flashing functions (on return errors - which aren't reported anywhere! wtf), I found that it's getting hung up on the one thing I suspected all along: the Flash controller just isn't responding to anything. So it times out during the initial wake-up command, but never passes that info along to anyone... man, I spent hours debugging this thing. Mostly debugging just to get it to launch without endlessly re-launching itself - took quite a bit of work to find that the "if ((UOG_ENDPTSTAT & mask) == 0)" check was what was causing it to crap itself. I just commented that out, and so far it's been totally flawless.
So I think, knowing that the Flash controller isn't even responding to program control, it might be best to try tinkering with the bootloader... I got a new disassembler set up, but the code is still a mess, almost like it's half encrypted or something. None of the strings or data have any references, and most of the subroutines are orphaned with no incoming references. Very little information in there. But I mean, what I'm trying to do is so simple (it's already part of the code!), it's just a matter of finding that function, and tracking down what part will trigger it :/ I'm just afraid that function is part of the scrambled data in the boot loader. I know about 3/4 of the file is composed of that obscenely large splash graphic/animation, but I still only have patchy parts of the file that could actually be decoded... the rest is what would appear to be code data, but isn't being decoded. :/
edit: Here's what I'm referring to by "it's already part of the code"...
ROM:10F07E34 aErasing_Please DCB "Erasing. Please wait...",0 ROM:10F07E4C aEraseCompleted DCB "Erase Completed.",0 ROM:10F07E5D DCB 0 ROM:10F07E5E DCB 0 ROM:10F07E5F DCB 0 ROM:10F07E60 aEraseFailed_ DCB "Erase Failed.",0
edit: Ooohh... shiny toy! OK, so check this out. Apparently the contents of RAM are not erased when the bootloader (loaded via e200tool) reboots the device after USB is unplugged. You can imagine what that means. Yep... I'm running a memory dump now! And so far, at 0x10F00000, I still see the boot loader, even after I rebooted. Maybe I can find some additional "unpacked" code in here that would give us some clue... not holding out *much* hope for that, but it'd a good thing to have...

It's official!
I have successfully recovered my Sansa View from a "Tango Digital Media Platform" blue ring of death bricking!
I'll be writing-up and posting a full tutorial and code/tools package (for Windows, since I don't use Linux, but I imagine it'll compile just as well on Linux), within the next few hours
Some preliminary notes: recovery can ONLY be performed with v01.01 (maybe 01.00 but never tested it), or v01.02 firmwares. v01.03 changed the way the bootloader recovery works and it no longer seems to properly write to Flash. In fact, I don't even think v01.03's recovery mode works at all. Also, the way to get the bootloader to reinitialize Flash is to set the Hold lock like going into recovery mode, then hold the UP part of the wheel (play, up, part nearest to the screen) INSTEAD of holding "Home", while loading the boot loader (powering on or using e200tool - which I'll likely "fork" as "viewtool" - in the recovery function). That creates the Flash structures needed to hold the firmware. The missing piece.
Now running natively in Windows 7 x64, libusb driver and all...

The Philadelphia Flyers had a golden opportunity on Tuesday night to take control of their series. They returned home having beaten the Rangers in New York for the first time in over three years to tie the series 1-1 and gave themselves home-ice advantage.
The Flyers came out and laid an egg getting out-executed by the Rangers in the 4-1 loss that handed the momentum and home-ice advantage back to the Rangers.
It goes without saying Game 4 on Friday at the Wells Fargo Center is as close to a "must-win" game for the Flyers as they come without it being an actual win or go home game. "Obviously everyone realizes it's going the series will be either 2-2, or 3-1," Flyers defenseman Kimmo Timonen said when asked if Friday was "an absolute must win" game. "We want to win that game and move on. We're disappointed but that's playoff hockey.
"You lose a game, you have to watch the tape, look at the things we did well and also the bad things; so we can try to correct them and move on."
Moving on is exactly what the Flyers are going to need to do. The place to start is on the power play as the Flyers have struggled on the man-advantage and getting shots through seems to be at the core of the issue.
"Quicker puck movement and a little more deception," explained Flyers head coach Craig Berube about how the team can improve their power play. "You can't just one-time it all the time. I think you have to fake it, get it moving a little bit and get them through."
Flyers captain Claude Giroux was more direct with his expectations for Friday night.
"We'll be ready for game four," Giroux said. "We're going to tie up this series and go back to New York. We just have to stay confident. That's why it's playoffs. It's exciting.
"We're going to come off even better in game four."

A gas of non-interacting quantum particles occupies a box with lengths $L_1, L_2, L_3$. Calculate its energy and thus the average force and pressure exerted by the gas on the walls of the box.
I have this as a solved example but the steps aren't explained and I'm confused. I tried looking online for a similar derivation but couldn't find anything. The idea is to express the energy and calculate the force as its gradient but it does so taking the derivatives with respect to the lengths $L_1, L_2, L_3$ which I find puzzling. I mean if we had an expression for a potential at any points in the space in the box than I would understand this approach but as it is, I don't see it!
Here's the expression for energy which is then differentiated w.r.t to the $L$'s to get the force:
$$E = \frac{\hbar ^2}{2m} \left( \left( \frac{n_1}{L_1} \right) ^2 + \left( \frac{n_2}{L_2} \right) ^2 + \left( \frac{n_3}{L_3} \right) ^2 \right) $$

Talking about surgery
At Cardon Children's Medical Center, we work with you to prepare your child for surgery. Child Life Specialists at Banner Desert have created helpful tips for preparing your child for surgery at any age. We realize that every child's needs are different and vary based on age, environment and family situation.
Infants & Toddlers (age 0-2)
A toddler's understanding of time is far different than that of adults. Because of this, Cardon Children's experts suggest telling your child about his or her surgery only a few days in advance. Child Life Specialists recommend bringing comfort items for your child such as blankets, pacifiers or a favorite doll or stuffed animal.
Preschoolers (age 3-5)
Preschoolers are often curious about their surroundings and what is happening. It is important to tell your preschooler a few days to a week in advance about his or her surgery and carefully explain what will be happening. Do not hesitate to answer any questions about the surgery your child may have. Child Life Specialists recommend using words such as "fix" or "make it better" when explaining why your child needs surgery.
School age (age 6-10)
Children in grade school should be informed about surgery at least a week in advance. Cardon Children's recommends explaining the process of what will happen the day of surgery. Explain to your child that there is a special doctor to make sure your child stays asleep during the surgery and does not feel pain. Also, encourage your child to ask the surgical team at Cardon Children's any questions he or she has during pre-surgery visits.
Teens should be informed and part of the decision-making process from the beginning. Cardon Children's encourages teens to ask their pediatric surgeons and surgical team any questions they may have as well as be part of the decision-making process. Child Life Specialists at Cardon Children's understand how important it is to teens to maintain their independence, privacy and sense of control.

Matthew Schaefer In at the Mermaid Inn
The Le Bernardin chef who left Bussaco has landed on his feet.
Matthew Schaefer, who left Bussaco partly because the owner found his style a little too twee for the neighborhood, has landed on his feet, replacing José Luis Martinez at the Mermaid Inn's East Village location. You'll recall Schaefer is a Le Bernardin alum. He's only been in the Mermaid's kitchen a few days, so we'll have to wait for his new menu.

Orphan Movie Reviews
User reviews on Orphan
Wow, what a gross movie! We didn't read the description before we picked it. It's right up there with Halloween, Friday the 13th, etc. if you like that sort of thing. Not a great date night for the "older crowd". It was definitely suspenseful. Do not take children to see it unless you want to be up all night dealing with the nightmares!
This movie was awesome! Real thriller.....with a strange ending twist!! It will be sure to keep you on your toes the whole time. Good for a date night or with friends,,,not recommended for children. Any age group would like this movie.

The Young and the Restless is looking to cast the role of "Aaron". Is it another call to look for Adam again. Were the rumors about Michael Muhney just that? Or did they offer MM the role back and he declined? With the ratings falling it seems they should get on their respective hands and knees and beg Michael to return. If he did what they say he did why was their no proof or confirmation given? Was he so maligned that he has a huge defamation case against them and cannot come back? Is Eric Braeden pulling strings? Or is Ms. Farren Phelps too stupid to see the writing on the wall? True Y&R is still the #1 soap with over 4 million viewers, but they cannot let it drop lower than that or they will lose their 25 year at #1 status and it makes one wonder why JFP is still there, especially if she does not make the changes needed. Adam and Billy are the fans most talked about characters and the actors Michael Muhney and Billy Miller the most missed.
The casting notice says, "Caucasian Male. Mid 30′S to Very Early 40′S. A Leading Man who is sexy, Appealing and very charming. He is smart! A businessman who can out maneuver even the shrewdest. NOTE: Actor must be at least 5'10 and have NO ACCENT PLEASE. MAJOR CHARACTER. MUST CONSIDER ACTORS WITH STRONG CREDITS."
It will be a contract role, with the length of contract negotiable. Starts late July 2014.

Hagan blasts 'real failure of government'
State Rep. Robert F. Hagan of Youngstown, D-60th, today expressed outrage with a recent news report that Ohio's oil and gas companies are paying taxes on the extraction of the natural resources based on an honor system.
The report, published Monday in The Vindicator, cited at least a $3 million discrepancy for 2010 in what was collected by the Ohio Department of Taxation and what was reported by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and the Ohio Oil and Gas Association.
"You've got to be kidding me," Hagan said. "This is a real failure of government. It is all too apparent now that the Department of Taxation and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources give the oil and gas industry a free pass to write a tax check to the state based on what they think is fair."
Hagan likened the system to allowing the general public to decide how much they should pay in taxes.
"I have a proposal that I think is fair," he said. "Let's put Ohio taxpayers on the same playing field as the oil and gas companies. We should let Ohio taxpayers file an income tax return based on the honor system. We will take Ohioans for their word on what kind of money they make, just as we currently do with oil and gas drillers."
Hagan then slammed ODNR's regulatory authority.
"It's about time ODNR does its job and actually starts regulating oil and gas companies in this state," Hagan said. "Implement rules to govern the actual natural resource extraction. Measure it. I mean get real. It's beyond outrage — it's laughable."
The full news article can be found here http://www.vindy.com/news/2012/feb/06/discrepancies-run-deep-with-ohio-well-ta/
Between Stop and Hagan, I for the life of me can't figure out who's more GOOFY !!!!! Stop the green man or Hagan who knows nothing on what's going on in this state
Please, just once before you leave office.
Find a problem, I don't care how small it is. Find a solution to the problem. Implliment the solution. Make sure the solution works. Then you can tell the world that you found a problem, implimented a solution, and did your job.
Bobby is the failure and you fools keep voting for him.
Let's take a poll on who is more out of tune, STOP or Hagan. Why was there no outrage by Hagan when so many of Obama's appointees were found to have not paid their taxes. Oh by the way that is a crime. Hagan has no proof that these companies did anything wrong, just arrogant indignation that he believes will be popular with the voters. Couldn't agree more with the posters here that point out that Hagan has never solved a problem. Can't believe anyone ever voted for this klutz.
Someone should tell Buckwheat that, with the manner the state and federal income tax systems are set up to be filed, are voluntary tax systems. If this were not the case, we would have no worry about being audited. This is one of the reason the feds set up the system of 1099 forms so they could better monitor the income of the population so that everyone would pay "their fair share".
Now, IMHO, there is a real opportunity for the state of Ohio to overhaul the school funding problem finally. Since the oil and gas is underground in our state, there should be a way to tax the resources and use the funds to fund a good protion of the schools in our state. This would be one way to alleviate the reliance on property taxes. I would also include the taxes from all public utilities in the pot. From the amounts of oil and gas they are talking about, this could be a partial solution.

Men's Basketball Game Day: Kent State
Courtesy: BCUathletics.com
Release: 11/20/2012
KENT, Ohio - The Joe Cipriano Nebraska Classic takes Bethune-Cookman to Ohio Tuesday as the Wildcats (1-2) face Kent State (2-2) Tuesday at 7 p.m.
ROAD TRIP: This is the fourth game of the Wildcats' season-opening six game road trip and second in a Nebraska Classic that doesn't see B-CU ever set foot in the Cornhusker state. After this, B-CU heads to Valparaiso, Indiana for a mini-tournament that includes Nebraska-Omaha, Chicago State and Valparaiso.
B-CU UPDATE: The Wildcat defense is giving up 65 points a game. That's not an average. All three opponents have posted identical outputs so far this season.
DUKES COUNTDOWN: Kevin Dukes has hit a 3-pointer in 22 consecutive games. His next 3-pointer will move into sole possession of second place on the B-CU all-time career list.
WELCOME HOME: Sophomore point guard Ricky Johnson is enjoying a mini-homecoming. The Akron product played his HS ball at St. Vincent -St. Mary's, the alma mater of LeBron James. Johnson helped SVSM win two state championships.
CAREER NIGHTS: Alex Smith and Paul Scotland had career-high scoring nights (14 and 11, respectively) against UNO. Against Tulane, three players had career highs: Mikel Trapp (12 points), Johnson (6 rebounds) and Alex Smith (8 rebounds).
KENT STATE UPDATE: The Golden Flashes are looking to rebound from an 88-83 loss to Valparaiso on Sunday. Randal Holt, who needs 34 points to become a 1,000 point scorer. led four players in double figures with a season high 20 points.

For over 85 years, the Lincoln Republican Club has championed the platform of the Onondaga County Republican Committee and represented the interests of the local Italian American community.
Beginning with the 1924 election of Syracuse Mayor Charles G Hanna and playing an integral role in the election of every Republican candidate since, the Lincoln club has shown itself to be one of the most influential political organizations in Central New York. Our group has helped select, and elect Mayors, County Executives, Supreme Court Justices and Congressmen.
In recent years, we have experienced some changes. Membership numbers are still good, but as we look toward our future we would like to see those numbers grow. In an effort to keep our current members more informed and give prospective members an opportunity to familiarize themselves with our club's history we have created this page on SyrRepublican.com. One of the changes we have made include opening membership to all Republicans, regardless of background.
To any prospective members we welcome you to browse our page for more information about the Club. Current members are encouraged to invite prospective members to one of our Friday lunches or to a Thursday evening meeting.
With your help we can see to it that the Lincoln Republican Club remains the pre-eminent political organization in Central New York.
Between 1900 & 1914 immigration laws in the US relaxed encouraging a flood of immigrants from all over Europe to make America their home. Within that influx was a large number of Italian citizens. Many of these Italians settled here in Syracuse and Central NY
Over the years these people became American citizens and got jobs with the State, County, & City.
The jobs they got were entry level jobs; street cleaners, ash men, etc. Even these jobs, menial as they were, were very difficult to obtain. The reason for this seemed to be that too many of our influential residents and community leaders were playing the type of politics that resulted in decisions that were not necessarily the most beneficial for our people. Another factor some felt was that these people also spent too much time fighting amongst themselves.
Those in the party who had the final say in considering anyone for any kind of job did nothing. Their reasoning for this was that there was no particular person they could count on to vouch for the credibility of the applicants. They couldn't count on the word of the leaders from within our community as they were divided deeply amongst themselves. This was the way it was for quite awhile.
It was around 1923 when a very astute politician and an excellent lawyer named Clarence King had an idea. Mr King was a partner in the law firm Bond, Schoeneck & King and Chairman of the Onondaga County Republican Committee. He felt our position in the 1924 election was a bit shaky and uncertain. It was then that he reached out to one of our distinguished citizens, Pasquale Aloi to get together our people so that the Republican nominee for Mayor could be elected. Mr King felt that through hard work & a united effort by our people we could provided the much needed edge to win the Mayors office.
It was late in the summer of 1924 when Mr Aloi called a few friends together in his office and stated in plain language that if these Italian American community leaders ever wanted to be recognized as influential members of the community in general that this was their chance. It was the opportunity for them to help our voice be heard. The stipulation from Mr Aloi was that these leaders needed to take orders and quit playing politics amongst themselves; that they needed to work together and show a unified front.
With some reservations the idea seemed to take hold. The group met a few times on the third floor of the Venetian Garden on N. Salina Street and after that all meetings were on the third floor of Haas Hall at 601 N. Salina Street. These meetings were not always peaceful, in fact some erupted into fist fights, but the firm guiding hand of Mr Aloi prevailed.
At one of these meetings the name "Lincoln Republican Club" was suggested by Professor Torquato DeFelice and was promptly adopted without objection.
About two dozen of the first organizers went out everywhere in the city to solicit members to join. We got about 600 initial members together and each one paid $1 in dues. After much very hard and sometimes discouraging work Election Day came and we were united. The results were gratifying; particularly for Mr King as Republican Charles G Hanna was elected Mayor by 734 votes.
In spite of much bickering and unjust criticism, it was a job well done. It was at last evident that our efforts were well appreciated as Mr Dionysius Capocefalo was appointed a Clerk in the Naturalization Office at the Court House.
Our first banquet was held at the Onondaga Hotel with great success. The keynote speaker was the brilliant and articulate Mr. Harry Skerritt. Mr. Skerritt was a law teacher in connection with the American Institute of Banking.
The following year, as everyone had taken heart in our victory the previous year, we had our annual banquet at the Syracuse Hotel. Seven hundred people attended the occasion. We invited as speaker Governor Horace White who spoke on Lincoln in his own articulate way. He stated, "If you continue in the manner you have shown these last two elections, you will be a powerful group not only in the City & County but in the State & eventually the Nation. God bless you all."

Learning to Moderate
Thursday, January 31, 2013
It is amazing what lack of sleep can do to a person. I was so angry and frustrated with everything yesterday. The night before I got absolutely NO sleep. Last night I got a decent amount of sleep and BAM! I feel more optimistic, I feel more motivated, I no longer feel weak and dizzy, I don't feel panicy (I have panic disorder, and lack of sleep increases the chances of a panic attack). Today I am up and about and ready to teach! I shall pack an apple for breakfast which I usually end up eating as a before lunch snack (I am not an 8am breakfast person). I will have another apple for lunch along with a smart ones/lean cuisine/healthy choice frozen meal, and then my left over chicken for dinner, maybe some cooked veggies.
So the assignment today was writing about where I have trouble with moderation. A couple of months ago my answer would have been EVERYWHERE! Once I started the diet I would not touch anything but then my boyfriend had a bag of Doritos which is a chip I never really cared for and only kinda liked. I started with that. I counted as I ate and did not eat tons. Then I moved onto Goetz Caramel creams, only one a day if that. Then I started with restaurants, only have half my meal and only one, not all, of the complimentary bread. After that I moved onto other small candy, I had a mini reeses cup one day and occasionally I will have 1-2 starburst throughout the day. I have started to have one little thing if I see it in the faculty room or someone offers it to me but no more. I am debating working on drinking next. Right now I will have about two drinks the nights I drink but I might want to make that one and then, eventually, none unless I'm out with friends. I'm still afraid to touch my absolute favorite chips and dip. I wont go near a candy bar. I have not baked cookies for a while. The foods that aren't as good leftover are still difficult not to finish because I was raised in the clean your plate club when at a restaurant. I always ordered too much food and when I didn't want to finish it my father would get angry. Or if I went out to eat and wasn't hungry so I only ordered applesauce, he would get upset. It is hard for me to throw away food.
My action plan is to slowly let some of those foods back into my life and conquer moderation with them one at a time so that once I reach my goal weight I will already have the skills to maintain that weight. Every other time I went on a diet, when I stopped I went full out, eating everything I wanted and missed.
Any way, that's all for now, I gotta get to work. 3rd grade today!

Sleep in the right amount is vital to good health. The body needs time to repair what damaged we might have done during the day. The healing power is within us. God made us that way. God Bless YOU! Vic.

Americans are enjoying a nice raise at the moment, in the form of dramatically lower gas prices. The government's Energy Information Administration estimates that the average household will spend $ 750 less on gas this year, which is like getting a roughly $ 1,000 raise, since the savings aren't taxed. For a little perspective, the 2008 economic stimulus package passed ... Read More »

Nr. Melton Mowbray,
LE14 2EF, England.
Stapleford Park Country House Hotel hosted a Japanese tea event to mark four centuries of political and trade links between Japan and England. More than 100 people gathered in Stapleford's Grand Hall to enjoy a demonstration of Japan's traditional green tea ceremony by a tea master and to sample British-style finger sandwiches, scones and pastries.
Visitors also had the chance to look at a display of kimonos, traditional cloths from the Land of the Rising Sun, valued at around £1 million. A group of musicians, who had also performed at the National Opera House and with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, serenaded guests by playing excerpts from Puccini's opera Madama Butterfly.
Angelina Chua, the hotels manager said, "We sold out the event in just four weeks and we are now looking to do more afternoon teas with musical entertainment in the future". Visitors also enjoyed a demonstration of the traditional 'candy pulling' craft, Amezaiku – a technique of creating detailed flowers, plus animals and bird shapes from hot, soft candy by one of its greatest exponents, Takahiro Yoshihara.

We're totally digging this cutely casual Stripe Skater Dress with Pleated Skirt ($65), thanks to its wide stripes, tiny pleats, and softly translucent cap sleeves. It's a combination of features almost as winning as Gerard Butler's chiseled jaw and baby blues.

ArtCenter/South FLorida launches its 30th anniversary year-long celebration with a festive party called 'pARTy,' which will also provide patrons with the opportunity to take home a share of $100,000 worth of artwork.
The event will be held this Saturday, April 19 from 7 to 11 p.m. at the gallery/studio space located at 800 Lincoln Road. It is the first in a series of events that will culminate in a curated exhibit this fall.
"ArtCenter is a pioneer institution that has launched the career of so many notable artist in South Florida," said Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine. "It holds a special place in the ever growing Miami Beach cultural and arts scene," he added.
"South Beach was a very different place 30 years ago, when visionary Ellie Schneiderman and other pioneer artists opened ArtCenter/South Florida back in 1984," said ArtCenter Executive Director Maria del Valle. The center, which houses both a gallery and artist's studios, is credited for helping to lead the turnaround of Lincoln Road from a retail area that had fallen upon hard times to one of the world's most popular shopping destinations.
Since opening its doors in 1984, the ArtCenter has hosted 1,000 resident artists, many of whom have gone on to become well-known. The center also attracts 100,000 visitors each year.
The chief event of the center's annual parties is the raffle, which is called "winningART." This year, each of the ArtCenter's 34 artists have donated a work of art, which will be raffled off individually. Patrons buy raffle tickets only for the individual piece they want to win, which means that the chances of winning vary. Tickets are $20 each. The artwork can be viewed here.
Admission to the party is $30 or $100 for a VIP package that admits two guests and includes five raffle tickets.

The company began with only three styles, three sizes and twelve colors. So what does the name, "three dots" come from? When Lebon began designing the essentials, the three dots meant "more to come." Three Dots was an instant hit in the world of fashion. The collections for women now include exclusive knitwear, maternity, sportswear, cashmere and wovens.

The Albuquerque Isotopes lost 12-10 to the host Colorado Springs Sky Sox on Saturday night. Joc Pederson still managed to steal the spotlight, quite literally.
Pederson stole his 30th base of the season in the sixth inning. He became the first player since Frank Demaree in 1934 to have 30 stolen bases and 30 home runs in a Pacific Coast League season.
No player in the modern, affiliated era of the PCL had ever achieved 30-30. Demaree accomplished his feat in 186 games, while Pederson needed just 115.
Pederson drew a one-out walk in the sixth inning. He stole second base off reliever Rafael Betancourt and catcher Dustin Garneau.
Colorado Springs (53-82) split the series thanks to a pair of five-run innings. The Sky Sox erupted in the third inning to erase a 4-0 deficit and then again in the sixth to come back from 8-5 down.
Albuquerque (59-75) was led by Alex Guerrero's six RBI. He went 4-for-5, falling a home run shy of the cycle.
Tim Federowicz was 2-for-5 with two walks, finishing with four runs scored. Clint Robinson went 2-for-5 with two runs and an RBI.
Ben Paulsen hit three home runs and drove in seven runs to lead the Sky Sox. Jason Pridie was 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBI.
Yohan Flande (3-10) earned the win despite allowing eight runs in 5.1 innings. Barry Enright (0-4) took the loss in relief for the Isotopes as he gave up five runs in 2.2 innings.
Albuquerque will travel to Oklahoma City for four games starting Sunday at 5:05 p.m. The Isotopes will go with lefty Chris Reed (0-2, 12.71) against RedHawks lefty Luis Cruz (1-1, 7.90).

Investing in individual pieces of real estate has made a lot of headlines lately, but many people have discovered that this is not the perfect investment opportunity that these articles make it out to be. Individual pieces of real estate are currently believed to be undervalued, making it an ideal time to buy and hold real estate according to many experts.
Maintenance Costs
Unfortunately, holding on to real estate comes with a lot of risk that the typical investor is not usually prepared for. Maintenance costs with single family homes and apartment buildings have proved to be the undoing of many real estate investors. A lot of people simply assume that maintenance costs will be similar to their primary residence.
In fact, a tenant can cost a landlord a lot more. Tenants tend to not keep up with general repairs, and often let minor issues progress without reporting them. In the case of an eviction, an investor has to contend with both a loss of rent money and the threat of vandalism. Expect appliances to wear out faster and cosmetic items such as carpets and paint, to need replacement more often.
Professional property management companies are usually experienced with mitigating these costs, but for an individual investor the cost of one of these management teams will often eat through any profits seen by the property.
What to do Instead
Instead, investors who want to include real estate in their portfolio should look at REITs that are available through a self-directed 401(k) or IRA. These funds invest in a large variety of real estate, including single family homes, apartment buildings, and commercial buildings. This minimizes the risk of being overexposed in one market and reduces the risk of vandalism or other property damage. Furthermore, there are many tax advantages to these accounts, making them an ideal choice for many investors.

Does anyone have any good reasons to offer for introducing definite integrals before indefinite integrals, or the other way around? Definite integrals first because they have a clearer geometric interpretation? Indefinite integrals first because they can be defined without introducing the Riemann sum? Definite integrals first because they make it easier to understand the logic behind the Leibniz notation?
In my opinion what is important is that one defer use of the term indefinite integral until after one has seen definite integrals and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. If you hear about "indefinite integrals" first, then it is only natural to cognitively overlay definite integrals on top of indefinite integrals: it's an indefinite integral plus only a little more: $F(x)(+C) \mapsto F(b) - F(a)$. In other words, this seems to abet what is perhaps the single most frustrating cognitive process of calculus students: the tendency to regard the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus as a definition.
To help with this I try to use the term antiderivative instead of "indefinite integral" as much as possible. At some point I slip up because after all we are using the same integral sign for both: I almost wish we didn't. (Using almost identical notation for two a priori incredibly different things which in the setting of the FTC become almost the same is one of the brilliant notational innovations of calculus. It's up there with the in/famous $\frac{dy}{dx}$.) I also begin discussion of antiderivatives while doing differential calculus. Whenever you define an interesting operation in mathematics, it is an easy sell to consider the corresponding inverse problem: what inputs, if any, lead to a given output? For me, the uniqueness of antiderivatives up to a constant is one of the major applications of the Mean Value Theorem. Generally at that time I mention the problem of existence of antiderivatives of any continuous function and allude to the fact that to solve this problem we need integration, by which I mean area functions.
(For many years I thought that you really did "need" integration to prove the existence of antiderivatives of continuous functions. Rather recently I learned that there are proofs of this which do not use integration whatsoever. The first person to give such a proof was apparently...Henri Lebesgue! As usual there is a nice MONTHLY article about this...)
I also start with the notation $\int_a^b f$ for "definite integrals". I tack on the $dx$ only after doing FTC and introducing integration by change of variables (or, as I was taught in high school and still think of it in the one variable context: "u-substitution"), at which point I try to explain the sense in which the $dx$ is "just" a brilliant Leibnizian device to streamline the change of variables process. (May the proponents of nonstandard analysis forgive me: I do not say anything about infinitesimals in my freshman calculus courses.)
A remark that has little to do with my answer: I believe Apostol's calculus does definite integration before differentiation.
The application of indefinite integration to initial value problems is interesting. For example, generically, we can ask: what position function $x(t)$ gives rise to a particular velocity function $v(t)$. So, we're looking for a function $x(t)$ which when differentiated gives us $v(t)$. This is just antidifferentiation. Although, I'm fairly sure it's wrong to say given $v(t)$ find $V(t)$. I think such problems are interesting and accessible before any discussion of the Riemann integral has been given. If you choose to also discuss the indefinite integral here the very nice thing you get to say: "this $c$ we add is to account for all the possible initial conditions." This seeds intuition for later work on differential equations in my view.
From a course management perspective, these give me a chance to get the students to study antiderivatives before we cover the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). This means, as I'm teaching FTC there is a greater chance they understand what I mean when I say "antiderivative". I suspect they are more confused about $\sum$ notation and limits of sequences by the time I get to FTC. It's ironic that we worry about these minor points and yet feel free to drop sequential limits on them when so many have not seen a sequence in years. Backgrounds vary I suppose.
Something I've worked out for the sake of showing them what not to do is an indefinite integral from an explicit calculation of the Riemann integral with varying bound. It's not too much trouble to show: $$ \int_{0}^x dt = x \qquad \int_{0}^{x} t \, dt = \frac{1}{2}x^2 $$ from the definition. You can derive these from the known formulas for sums. Then, I ask them, can you work out $\int_{0}^{x} \sin (t) \, dt$? There is a class of students who needs to realize why antidifferentiation is necessarily educated guessing. This discussion helps with that. Annoyingly, I can't seen to find the explicit examples in my posted notes, if you're interested let me know, I'll find them. For more on how I present antiderivatives etc... you might look at: My Oldschool Calculus Notes circa 2010.
( I am happy to email you LaTeX source if you want it, however, it has some institution specific comments and my horrible grammar, I'm working on an edit this summer if my student comes through as I hope...)
Both history and applications suggest doing definite integrals first.
The applications of calculus to areas, volumes, moments, probabilities and expectations are all primarily definite integrals.
The history of things which look like calculus begins with Archimedes's calculations of areas, which are again definite integrals. And the things that developed first are usually the most obvious and most natural starting points.
If you do enough definite integrals numerically, it's easy to appreciate the utility of indefinite integrals afterwards.

Stephen Dawson has apologised after attempting to confront a Barnsley fan on Saturday while the club are investigating allegations that Brek Shea made an offensive gesture to supporters.
Shea and Dawson went over to the Reds fans to clap them after the 5-0 loss at Huddersfield which put them bottom of the league.
Dawson was seen shouting at one individual fan and moving towards him before he was restrained by Shea and Peter Ramage. Shea – who is currently on international duty with the USA – is alleged to have stuck his fingers up to the supporters in an offensive gesture.
In an statement on Barnsley's website, Dawson said: "Firstly I would like to apologise for my actions on Saturday. My emotions were high and I shouldn't have reacted the way I did.
"I'm really disappointed with what was said to me but I need to be professional enough to take that. The fans have paid an awful lot of money to come and see us and to lose five-nil, I can understand their frustrations and disappointment. I can only apologise on my behalf and assure all the supporters it won't happen again."

Former East Carolina skipper Keith LeCiair's legacy still runs through the Pirate Nation
April 16, 2012
Reprint permission was granted by SEBaseball.com - originally published by on April 13, 2012
By Bruce Winkworth
SEBaseball.com Staff Writer
GREENVILLE, N.C. - Nicknames are generally terms of affection. At East Carolina, the coaches refer to senior second baseman Tim Younger as Timmy Baseball, a nickname bestowed with genuine affection.
Generously listed at 5-11 and 160 pounds on the ECU roster, Younger is an old-school baseball player, having an old-school baseball season. Through games of April 11, heading into a three-game Conference USA series at Memphis, Younger leads the Pirates with a .361 average and a .457 on-base percentage, the latter the result of leading the team in both batting and walks (16 to just 11 strikeouts). He also has six doubles and 18 RBIs, and has scored 23 runs. In addition, he's been the defensive glue that's held a strong, veteran infield together.
At 23-9-1 and flirting with the national rankings most of the season, East Carolina has plenty of players who fit the traditional physical profile of a team batting leader. Younger is not that guy. When you see the team getting off the bus before a game, he's the guy who looks like the star player's kid brother.
"He's not the most physical guy," ECU coach Billy Godwin said. "He's 5-foot-9 and 155 pounds soaking wet, but the guy comes to play the game the right way every day, and he has the right attitude whether things are going good or bad for him."
Generally speaking, of course, things have gone well for Younger in 2012. He began preseason practice locked in a battle with Bryan Bass to be the Pirates' starting second baseman, won the job outright to the surprise of some, and then began the season with a seven-game hitting streak, batting .550 (11-for-20).
There is little in Younger's past to indicate such a season was in the offing. As a first-year player for the Pirates a year ago, a transfer from St. Petersburg (Fla.) College, Younger started just 29 games and struggled to stay in the lineup. He certainly never approached this level of production, batting .250 with five doubles and 10 RBIs. Even during his best season at St. Petersburg, as a sophomore in 2010, he batted .335, hit eight doubles and a triple, and drove in 23 runs. As a freshman in 2009, he batted .268.
The difference from then to now, Younger said, is mostly from the neck up.
"It's just confidence, I guess, a better mental side of the game," Younger said. "Last year I was a little flustered at times, but this year I'm ready to go. I'm ready to win, teammates beside me. And the competition makes us all better. The harder I work, the better it makes Bryan Bass. The harder he works, the better it makes me."
Baseball players have gotten bigger and stronger and faster over the years. Much bigger and stronger and faster. East Carolina has 16 players on the roster who stand 6-foot-2 or taller, and 17 who tip the scales at 200 pounds or more. Unlike most sports, especially football and basketball, baseball still has a place for the little guy, as long as the little guy remembers that he's the little guy.
Tim Younger never has a problem with that. He's the smallest guy on the team and he knows it. He's never tried to hit a home run, at least not in a long time. He earns his playing time by tending to baseball's detail work instead.
"Usually I focus on all the routine things, the little things, defense, ground balls, moving runners, things like that," Younger said. "I'm the smallest guy out there so I have to do that kind of stuff. I can't go out there and hit home runs. We have guys who have middle-of-the-order power. I'm supposed to get on base and set the table for them."
There's another factor at work here, an intangible that's virtually impossible to quantify, but ask anyone associated with the ECU program and they'll tell you without hesitation that Keith LeClair has a hand in Younger's success this season. LeClair coached the Pirates from 1998-2002, when he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ALS for short, Lou Gehrig's Disease.
In five years as head coach at East Carolina, LeClair compiled a 212-96-1 record, making him the third-winningest coach in Pirates history despite his short tenure. He coached ECU to four conference championships (three in the Colonial Athletic Association and one in Conference USA) and four NCAA Tournament appearances, including the Super Regionals in 2001. He also inspired everyone who came into his sphere of influence. His legacy is embraced everywhere in Greenville, from the stadium that bears his name to the tournament played each February in his honor to the way the school chose to honor his uniform.
When LeClair stepped down as head coach in 2004 - he died on July 17, 2006 - the coaches and athletics administration at East Carolina decided that rather than just retiring LeClair's uniform number, they would award that number each year to the player on the team who best embodies the many positive attributes LeClair personified as coach.
Wearing uniform number 23 matters to the Pirates. It matters like you wouldn't believe. And Younger is the 2011 recipient of uniform number 23.
"Wearing that jersey stands for more than just winning or being a good player," Godwin said. "It stands for character and perseverance, and wanting to achieve at a high level. I've worked very hard to make sure that part of [LeClair's] legacy never diminishes. And Tim Younger embodies everything that number means to this program."
"Honored," Younger said when asked his reaction to being awarded uniform 23. "I was surprised. There are lots of guys on the team who could have gotten it. I was just honored to be picked."
Tradition is so important to the fabric of baseball, be it something as universal as the seventh-inning stretch or something as narrowly defined as a team wearing a certain uniform combination on Sundays. Every school has its traditions. Every player and coach knows those elements of his school's history. In most cases, however, the coaches and players have little or no first-hand knowledge of a tradition's origins. And the traditions matter just the same.
Tim Younger was 12 years old when LeClair stepped down as coach in 2002. He was 16 when LeClair died in 2006. His knowledge of LeClair is all second- and third-hand, yet when asked about wearing number 23, the honor is written on his face, even as he says the words.
"Number 23 is a true honor," Younger said. "Coach LeClair, from what Austin Homan and the guys and the coaches tell me, he was a great man. He had great sportsmanship, he was a great leader, he had great faith in the Lord. He had a great work ethic. I'm truly honored to wear his number."
Homan, who is Younger's roommate, was the LeClair uniform recipient in 2010 and 2011. His career with the Pirates ended a year ago. He currently is serving as director of baseball operations for Godwin and is working on his master's degree in recreation and park management. He's been on both sides of number 23, as a recipient and as a staff member helping to decide who the 2012 recipient would be.
"Wearing that number makes you part of an elite group of guys in the East Carolina program," Homan said. "I came here and I'd never met Coach LeClair, but I learned about him from hearing people talk about him. And we still have guys coming into this program every year who learn about Coach LeClair and want to strive to be the kind of person he was and the kind of player he would have wanted to coach."
One other thing about wearing LeClair's number: Virtually every player who wears that number has responded with a standout season. Homan was injured almost all of 2011, but as a junior in 2010, he batted .313 with seven doubles and 28 RBIs, both career highs.
In 2009, Brandon Henderson batted .330 with 12 doubles, 13 home runs and 57 RBIs. The year before that, Drew Scheiber hit .319 with seven doubles and two home runs.
Adam Witter batted .286, bashed 12 doubles and 14 homers, and drove in 42 runs in 2006. Brian Cavanaugh hit .382 with 12 doubles, four triples, seven home runs, 36 RBIs and 14 steals in 2005. And so it goes.
Younger is just the latest to put on number 23 and have a career year. He's certainly not the first. He's not likely to be the last.
"There's a lot more to wearing that number than most people realize," Homan said. "It's not so much pressure as the realization that when you wear 23 you'll be held to a little higher standard. You hold yourself to a higher standard. You're expected to execute the fundamentals. You're expected to be consistent and be a leader, so even when you don't feel 100 percent, you get up and get to the park on time and have a good attitude and grind it out for nine innings. You're expected to be a positive example. And Tim Younger is playing that out to a T."
"I think that him getting the jersey is the reason he's playing every day," Godwin added, "the reason he's playing so well, because of what he embodies. He started out last year as the starter [at second base] for us, hit a tough spell and didn't play a lot at the end of the year. But he never gave up. He never quit competing. He never quit wanting to get better. He never pointed the finger. He always pointed the thumb. 'It's me. I've got to do this. I've got to get better.'"
And this year, he's been more than better. He's even been more than Timmy Baseball. This year, Tim Younger is number 23.

An 11-pound pregnant Chihuahua was left to languish in excruciating pain for over a week with her two front legs broken in half in an Albuquerque home. On Wednesday her owner was arrested for felony animal cruelty reported krqe news.
Ana Cortez-Sabela, 26, was arrested in her home on Broadway and Rio Bravo. A warrant has been issued for her husband who is reportedly out of town working.
Acting on a tip from a neighbor who called Animal Services about a dog with broken legs and in very poor shape, Bernalillo County Animal Control Services and the Bernalilllo County Sheriff's Office, visited the home to investigate. There they found the chihuahua and rushed her immediately to a veterinarian where x-rays of her front legs were taken.
The pregnant dog, who was carrying five puppies soon to be born, had suffered with her broken legs from five to ten days with no treatment or pain relief. Because she was suffering so much, the decision was made to humanely euthanize her; the unborn puppies did not survive.
There have been no explanations given by Cortez-Sabela for the reason the dog's legs had literally been snapped in half, but allowing the dog to suffer warranted the charge for extreme animal cruelty.
Four other dogs in the home were surrendered; they will be made available for adoption shortly.

Just One MoreJust One moreJust One More by Julchen-san
Just a cut.
Just a scratch.
"What's that mark.?"
"It was the cat."
Just an excuse.
Just another lie.
"What's with all the bracelets.?"
"Just fashion, why.?"
Just a tear.
Just a scream.
"Why were you crying.?"
"Just a bad dream."
-But it's not just a cut, or a tear, or a lie. It's always 'just one more' until you die

Looking for a laugh on Juan Pablo Galavis' expense on Monday morning? Look no further than Funny or Die as the new spoof revealed showcases "The Bachelor" in all the creepy sexist ways it treats women. Offering up a look at who might be the first black bachelor, it appears the show isn't worried about the African American men who would be willing to give out the roses. According to Small Screen Scoop on Monday the women who wouldn't tolerate two minutes of being disrespected on such a national platform.
While the sketch is funny, it's also very true. As the ladies point out that a retired college ballplayer might be jobless and it doesn't pay the bills. They also share how they are way overqualified to be looking at a contestant who kisses five girls in 10 minutes and might live with his mother. So where can the ladies find other contestants like this? Apparently the local Applebee's.
Shocked that they talk back, it seems that the spoof offers some of the basic objections about the show and the fake contestant can't do anything but be shocked he was rejected. The funny moment includes Terrell Owens and Tatyana Ali, but all the people portraying the concept of the show, remind the viewers that the ladies are probably making more money and the scenario of being treated like crap isn't going to be tolerated.
"The Black Bachelor" features several social concerns of the show and thanks to Juan Pablo, there was no shortages of shock as "The Bachelor" seemed to be the biggest loser seen on the show so far.
