Soup Kitchens
On October 29, 1929 the U.S. stock market crashed and created wide spread public panic. People quickly lost a very large amount of their money that was in the stock market and the whole country quickly spiraled into the Great Depression. Hoover quickly began to realize that families wouldn't be able to make ends meat, so he told the Government to create soup kitchens and bread lines. Which gave the poor food for free when they didn't have a cent to spare. Although Hoover started the soup kitchens some thought that it just wasn't enough and resented him for it. They were needed a lot more than some think, because about twenty-five percent of people were out of their jobs.

Where did Soup Kitchens Begin?
Soup kitchens were in big cities like New York, Chicago, and Detroit by the government, churches and religious groups, and even the famous gangster Al Capone. Capone's soup kitchen was made to clean up the gangster's bad reputation, and served three meals a day to ensure that all who had lost jobs would be able to get a meal. The first soup kitchen was in Detroit, Michigan by the Capuchin Services Center and was opened on November 2, 1929, which was only a few days after the crash. The volunteers working there served somewhere from 1,500 to 3,000 people a day in the ridiculously long lines. And if anyone was out in the country they would have to go into town to get some food for themselves.

What is the Great Depression?The Great Depression started on October 29, 1929, and lasted until 1932 when President Franklin Delano Roosevelt came into power. While the great depression was going on Hoover tried to do many things but could never get the people's support. Some say that it took until 1940 (when the second World War began) that the United States came back up to a good economic status. The poor suffered the most, considering they had very little before the Depression there was little hope for them. Some made it through the long Depression, but others had no food, no heat, and sometimes no homes. When that happened, people made forts in Central Park and called them "Hoovervilles", after the president who they thought did this all to them. To aid the poor and hungry states and cities made soup kitchens and breadlines where they could get a free meal.
Herbert Hoover's Creation of Soup Kitchens"Prosperity, is just around the corner", is something that Hoover said quite often. This is because he wanted to reassure the people that we would get through this, but some thought "Where is this corner and when is it coming?". Things got pretty bad and Hoover wanted to find more ways to help those in need. He decided to make soup kitchens and breadlines, which gave food to those who had no money and were starving. But the government weren't the only people who had soup kitchens, or something along those lines. Churches and missionaries often had them, and surprisingly enough the famous gangster Al Capone had one in Chicago as a publicity stunt.
Need for Soup KitchensThe need for soup kitchens was so large because of the high percentage of the unemployed (about 13 million in 1933). Parents could barely feed themselves, and then they had to feed their children. People tried to get jobs where ever they could and some failed, unable to pay for food. So when soup kitchens came into play some families were saved from starvation. There was a cry for help and everyone helped by making soup kitchens.
The Great Depression was terrible, but could have been much worse with out soup kitchens. Not only would people not have food, they would starve and most likely not make it through about 13 years. Although Hoover wasn't liked very much he should be appreciated for the making of soup kitchens, which some could say was the only thing keeping America going. Soup Kitchens were the fuel in all the almost empty hearts of Americans, that kept them going and made sure they never gave up.

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
For fans of young girls getting their asses pounded who don\'t mind more traditional fare, too.
The "All-Anal - No Talk" tagline on the box is a little deceptive. First, there is talk, both during scenes and as setups; and while each girl does open up her back door, it's not all anal. There are blowjobs and vag sex leading up to the anal. Just for the record.
Nonetheless, fanny fans will not be disappointed with these young cuties taking peckers in their poopers.
Monica Sweetheart looks sweet as can be even as Julian mercilessly plugs her rear hole. After a little A2M, Sweetheart gets on top and rides Julian's plunger like the queen of the rodeo. She gets a face full of cum for her efforts.
Taylor Rain turns in her usual sex kitten performance, riding Slim Shady's cock like it's going out of style. Of course, as long as Rain is riding cock, it ain't going out of style. She gets choked while her pussy is pounded from behind while a butt plug fills her arse. Follow with some ass-ramming and a (jizz) blow to the face. Beautiful.
Despite the yakking and the vag and the oral, in the end, there's plenty of anal and A2M.

Fromont and Risler
"[...] ALPHONSE DAUDET Nominally Daudet, with the Goncourts and Zola, formed a trio representing Naturalism in fiction. He adopted the watchwords of that school, and by private friendship, no less than by a common profession of faith, was one of them. But the students of the future, while recognizing an obvious affinity between the other two, may be puzzled to find Daudet's name conjoined with theirs. Decidedly, Daudet belonged to the Realistic School. But, above all, he was an impressionist. All that can be observed the individual picture, scene, character Daudet will render with wonderful accuracy, and all his novels, especially those written after 1870, show an increasing firmness of touch, limpidity of style, and wise simplicity in the use of the sources of pathetic emotion, such as befit the cautious Naturalist. Daudet wrote stories, but he had to be listened to. Feverish as his method of writing was true to his Southern character he took endless pains to write well, revising every manuscript three times over from[...]".

Oooch, there he is . . .
I should start that behind our house there is the Sport spark of Rumbeke, with lots of football fields.
So on a sunny Saturday afternoon suddenly we heard a very strange loud noise. We really wondered what that could as we did not see anything happen.
But then after a while, it appeared, it was a big balloon.
Of course there was a lot of space on the sports park to prepare the balloon and to fligh high into the sky.
There are several ballooning companies in the region, and the price for a flight is about 100 euro for a flight.
I have never done this, it is still on my want to do it - list.

The CC Club brings back its old-school jukebox
When we put together May's cover feature, "An Oral History of the CC Club," nearly everyone we talked to -- bar owners and bar flies, journalists and rock stars -- had something to say about the bar's legendary jukebox.
Some of their tales were eulogies. About two years ago, the bar's owners ditched their old model in favor of an electronic, internet-equipped TouchTunes version. Now, though, CC Club regulars have cause for a toast: At the end of August, the bar's new managers decided to bring a classic juke back.
See Also: An oral history of the CC Club jukebox
"Yeah, granted it was a good source of income," says manager Jenn Bodsgard of the TouchTunes machine. "But we've always supported music here, and we got the CD jukebox back because we wanted to have local music in our jukebox again."
Bodsgard and her co-manager, Adeana Arnold, started running the bar in May, when the CC's long-time owners sold to their neighbors on Lyndale, the French Meadow. Right away, they knew they weren't going to make many changes, but that they wanted a different juke.
The TouchTunes machine brought in more money, but it also took "forever," says Bodsgard, to queue up local music. So Bodsgard and Arnold traded it in for a CD juke instead.
To stock it, they put out an invitation to local musicians and music collectors alike: free beer for old CDs. The new juke filled in quickly.
"We got a lot," says Bodsgard, rattling off all kinds of genres. "Enough that we can change them out any time we want."
The bar has struck up partnerships with Electric Fetus and St. Paul's Into the Void Records, and will be shouting them out as places to buy the CDs in the juke. Bodsgard also hopes to start hosting local music listening and release parties.
"We have a long history with a lot of local bands that come here just to hang out and have a beer," she explains. "We wanted to just keep that spirit."

BBC 606 Extra Time - six reasons why Liverpool can win the league
Jason Roberts
Jason Roberts tells us six reasons why Liverpool are genuine title contenders.
Jason Roberts
Jason Roberts tells us six reasons why Liverpool are genuine title contenders.
Liverpool fans/players/staff seem to think that fans of other teams are backing them to win the title. When in fact, everyone I have spoken to has said the opposite. They have fared a lot better than I expected this season and at times have played some fantastic football. Although their method of simply trying to outscore the other team, regardless of how many they concede, doesn't work against the bigger teams in the league.
They have also benefitted from the other title contenders battling on other fronts. Should Liverpool finish top four and qualify for the Champions League (which I have no doubt they will), they will need quite a few re-enforcements to bolster a similar charge next season. Especially when it comes to their defence. They may also have the task of trying to keep Suarez if the rumours of Real Madrid interest turn out to be more than just that.
Can we do it, hope so, at the moment we're living the dream.
While it's certainly in our hands to finish above Chelski, winning the title depends on other teams nicking points off Man City. Looking at it hypothetically if all the games in hands are played & won the top 4 would be -
Man City - 72
Chelsea - 69
Liverpool - 68
Arsenal - 63
So with wins at home we can go 2 points above Chelsea and close the gap on City to 1 point. We need City to drop points & preferably concede a decent number goals in the process otherwise even if we manage to draw level on points they are the only team with a better goal difference. Utd failed us last night & I think our best hopes now are for Arsenal, Everton or maybe Southampton to spoil the party.
The probability hovers around 40%.
If Liverpool beats Chelsea & City, the probability soars to 80%.
Chelsea's biggest game is at Anfield; they lose that game and the title is gone.
However, got an odd feeling the two big games at Anfield may not impact as decisively on the title.
Potential banana skins: Everton v City, West Ham v Liverpool. City and Liverpool lose both those games and the games at Anfield may not be as decisive.
Do I think Liverpool are title contenders and can win it? Certainly. Do I think they will win it though? Maybe not this year, even if they finish the season with wins in their remaining games (including Chelsea and City that they've yet to play) they still need them to slip up and lose atleast one or maybe two of their games. Considering Chelsea's organisation at the back, that'll be a hard ask, since they've ground out 1-0 wins (with the exception of a couple standout results like Arsenal), whereas City aim to attack and without Aguero can still rely on Toure to score from deep runs. We need those two to hopefully be a bit more exhausted from their CL exploits, otherwise it'll be tough. Do have to say though, I am very impressed with Liverpool this season and by all accounts are above where I expected them to be, then again you can't really say any team has been runaway contenders, which TBH is very refreshing.
Don't think we'll make it this season but it's so good to be in the mix!
Reckon we can do City at home but Chelsea I'm worried about, they marked Suarez out of the reverse fixture in December. Hopefully it'll be different with both Suarez & Sturridge on the pitch this time. Mourinho will have a gameplan but so will Rodgers.
If Chelsea get through the Champions league quarter-final tie with PSG they'll have the semis either side of the Liverpool game which will bode well for us.
It's not in our hands & we'll probably have to win every single game for it to go down to the wire but the hope & belief amongst Liverpool fans is great to experience!
Why not? Every pundit has written off liverpool for the title up until the utd game, but now we have a few heads turning. Whether liverpool win the title or not, they have been by far the most entertaining team this season and deserve to return to the champ league next season. I agree with Jason, Rodgers has been a revalation! He tinkers but not excessively, knows when to bring youngsters in and when they need to rest. The players trust him, and you can see they give 100% on the pitch for him.
Liverpool CAN win the league, if man utd were in the same position liverpool were in and playing a similar (amazing) style of football, there would be no question as to whether they can win it!
Liverpool's attacking quartet; Suarez, Sturridge, Coutinho and Sterling all offer a different asset going forward whilst all additionally have an excellent work-rate for pressing when off the ball which is invaluable in the big games. LFC still have defensive issues to address, however, I actually think it will be the midfield battles against Chelsea, Spurs and City which will play the pivotal part in the title race. Henderson and Allen are excellent passers of the ball and offer so much energy, but it will be a great challenge for them to come out on top against the likes of Yaya Toure and Fernandinho. Gerrard is one booking away now from a two-game suspension which I really fear with these big games approaching. Lucas is still not match fit and it would be a big ask for him to come into the team with games of such high intensity and pressing. The Anfield crowd will certainly make Chelsea and City's visits a hostile environment to play in and I think it could ultimately prove to be a decisive factor to win the games. Not many teams win at Anfield when the crowd are really, really up for it.
Liverpool do not have an easy run in but at least they play teams at Anfield, where they have blown teams away. Their defence will be exposed by the big teams but when they have the two highest scorers in the league and have a team that understands and communicates with each other, then Liverpool can definitely win the title. I think they will fall just short but it shouldn't be ruled out.
Spent a few minutes of my lecture this morning plotting the results needed for Liverpool to win the league. If they get all 24 points remaining, Chelsea won't win the league. So for Liverpool to win the title, Man City need to drop a couple points. I'm hoping for a last minute Andy Carroll goal to give West Ham a win on the last day, assisted by Downing. LFC players, unite!

It's kind of disturbing (I read the first few pages online) but really interesting. Also, Hungry, by Krystal Renn. She is one of my favorite models. She's "plus size", but struggled with anorexia. She is GORGEOUS. I don't remember what add it is, maybe for breast cancer, but she is shown from the back draped in red silk. It is very old-time, Grecian goddess beauty. I think I might also conduct a student survey. Hmm.....
I uploaded a picture of Crystal! Yeah, C, not K. Haha:) Beautiful, right? Ha. And they say she's "plus size."
Last night, I cut my paper down a whole page. Yay! And tonight, I'm having my mom's friend who was an english teacher at north for many years, help me. I still need;
1 more fact for my second point. (at least)
Cut down one page still!
Clean up loaded language
Finalize grammar/spelling
Check citations
Seems like al lot, but I am not worried because I only have that and possibly spanish tonight. But tomorrow starts finals. Eeeek. Luckily, I only hace Culinary and I think I can use my notes. Heads up to next years' students. Work on your paper. Every. Day. Even if nothing is due, because you'll see things you can fix, and it'll ultimately make your paper soooooo much better. DO NOT wait till the end, because it WILL be finals week. Aka- h*ll.

Is there a way to only show certain calendars to certain users? thx.
Hey Maxgoldberg. Thanks for the note, and for using The Events Calendar. At this point there are no built in features that'd allow for this; by default, anyone with permissions to view the site can view the calendar. I've heard of users restricting access in the past via third-party plugins, which should be able to pick up events as they're just a custom post type.
Sorry I couldn't offer more in terms of an official solution. Let me know if you have other questions here, or if I misunderstood your initial request, and I'll update the response as needed. Cheers.

Since some time, moving the banners up and down has stopped working on my site. Is it the upgrade to 3.6.1 that is at fault?
Also, our two cent to your wish list: We have banners that appear on several pages and it would be smart if we did not have to upload the banner again for every page, we want to inter it on.
If you would like to see the installation, it is on http://www.scandasia.com
Please help with making moving banners up and down possible again.
Best regards

Face is the index of mind.
At this point I would like to add something I liked in Bigboss 3, I don't particularly like Claudia but I will appreciate ke usne hindi mein baat karma seekh liya aur she does not leave a chance to use it. She also claims she is a hindustaani. She asked Rohit the other day " how old are you? Use your brains. Big boss is max for 12 weeks but actual life is after those 12 weeks and for the damage done now, it will be many years before it can be rectified''.

New champions Bromley crash to Hartley
Recently crowned Shepherd Neame Kent Premier League champions Bromley lost their first win/lose game since the start of 2009 at the hands of a determined Hartley.
Bromley elected to bat but for once their strong batting line up failed against a tidy bowling performance from Hartley.
Only Alan Wells with 60 made much impact as James Thompson 3-31 headed the Hartley attack with Charlie Hemphrey, Dan Redwood and Rhys Morgan all taking two each as Bromley were bowled out for a disappointing 167 in 39 overs.
Scott McKechnie replied with an unbeaten 97 and Sam Billings 47 not out as Hartley romped home to win by nine wickets with 18 overs to spare.
A second wicket partnership of 172 between Fabian Cowdrey and Michael Barber helped Sevenoaks Vine retain their Premier status for 2011 and the four points secured by Tunbridge Wells also ensured they will be in the mix next season.
Electing to bat after the early loss of Chris Hammond, Barber joined Cowdrey, son of former England and Kent captain Chris. Cowdrey worked his way to his maiden Premier century, finally departing for 105 with the score on 209.
Barber completed his century and remained unbeaten on 112 at the close of the 50 overs with the Vine total on 253 for four.
The loss of three early wickets did not assist the Tunbridge Wells reply but Mark Smith, 61, then joined Leighton Morgan, 54.
Morgan departed to leave the score at 78 for four and although Will Stickler added a useful 55 Tunbridge Wells ended 38 runs short. Ed Goodworth took 3-29 for the Vine.
Despite a victory over Gore Court, Lordswood are relegated to Division 1, their fate sealed by a points deduction earlier in the week though that fate would in any event have been sealed when Tunbridge Wells picked up their fourth point against the Vine.
Lordswood invited their hosts to bat and the Gore Court innings was built around an unbeaten 80 by Karl Pearson, Phil Edwards chipping in with 30 but they could only reach 166 for six from their 50 against a tight Lordwood attack.
Matt Greenwood top scored for Lordswood with 58 and Peter Stock scored 31 as they reached their target with four wickets in hand in the 33rd over.
St Lawrence ended the season with another good run chase against Bexley at Highland Court.
Bexley elected to bat and runs were soon flowing with Jibran Khan top scoring with 61, well supported by George Wells 52 and Sandeep Bains 41 as they worked their way to a useful 274 when they were all out in the 49th over.
Alistair Neale 4-40 and Dan Stickels 3-22 prevented a much higher total. St Lawrence by and large have chased well this year and this was to be no exception.
Dominic Chambers 37 and Dan Stickels 59 got off to a good start and were well supported thereafter by Paul Dixey with 89 and Lewis Jenkins 39 as St Lawrence raced home to win by six wickets with six overs in hand. St Lawrence end in third place for the season.
The Mote end in a creditable fourth place in their first season back in the Premier Division but could not end in winning ways against Bickley Park. Choosing to bat first at Mote Park, the home side were restricted to 221 for eight with Tom Harvey 56 and James Hodgson 77 the main contributors. Richard Horner finished the season well with 5-39.
A well paced reply from Bickley Park, led by 76 from Ben Fulton with Warren Lee and Phil Browning chipping in 37 and 32 respectively, saw Bickley safely home with four wickets in hand.
Gore Court and Lordswood both dropped from the Premier League to be replaced by Sibton Park, for their first ever taste of Premier cricket, who won Division 1 and Blackheath who were runners-up.

I've just played about 20 or so games(not here, on another site) online and 2 played 1.e3 and one odd fella played 1.d3. So...
What's up with this new trend? I've seen this on chess.com, chesscube.com, even instantchess.com. Can someone explain the idea behind 1.e3? Looks like 1.e4 but with less space.
The idea is to avoid opening theory and just play chess, I guess. 1.e3 and 1.d3 aren't great moves.
Here's some unasked-for-advice: always try looking your questions up in blogs and forums first, sometimes you'll find some answers already waiting for you http://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-openings/could-1e3-be-a-legitamate-opening
BUT, since you already asked it's called "Van't Kruij's Opening" and it sucks, but to be a tad bit more charitable it's one way of playing something or other with "colors reversed" which is not such a bad idea (sometimes) for instance 1.c4 e5 is a SD reversed (in effect) where White has an extra move - it's playable for Black of course but it's certainly not bad for White. 1.e3 has little to recommend it IMHO even 1.a3 (Anderssen's Opening BTW) is probably more useful if White wants to try playing a Black Defense with an extra move - also known as "move in hand" and a3 actually comes in handy in some reversed openings)
Here's some unasked-for-advice: always try looking your questions up in blogs and forums first, sometimes you'll find some answers already waiting for you http://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-openings/could-1e3-be-a-legitamate-opening...........
Just an hour or so ago I saw somebody get taken to task for resurrecting a dead thread. I guess you cant win.......
1.e3 looks like a legal move to me. So, your task is fairly simple: play chess.
I wouldn't say that looking up an old (or "dead") thread = resurrecting it esp if you just want to read the comments without adding anything. I've also seen "...somebody taken to task for resurrecting a dead thread" but not by the staff or mods - so if anyone else has a problem with a "resurrected thread" that's just their problem IMHO
Well, I respectfully disagree
If I wanted to know about 1e3, and bothered to do a search, and found the most recent result a 23 month old thread, I'd have very little problem starting a new discussion.
I agree, for topics that come up daily or weekly, join a "Live" discussion, but geez, once every two years does not seem unreasonable to me....
So I just develop normally? Usually I play e5, d5, Nf6, Nc6, Bc5, Bf5, Qd7, 0-0-0(ie standard moves) and the opponent just screws around.
Come to think of it 1.e3 usually gives me a very decent opening.
1.e3 nowadays is more popularly known as the mouseslip variation

Since it's likely that they are already running (already having been initialized) awake() is a place to get them ready to "do-their-thing" again. But, you don't necessarily have to worry about that. Awake is a good place to put code that you need to run on each servlet before output begins; perhaps database queries or security checks, etc. If you put an awake() in your servlet, just make sure to call the awake() method of your superclass at some point, or your pages will break. When doing that, it's a good idea to call the super FIRST, so all the low-level stuff can get set up, and then do your own awake code.

Posted on 01/04/2012 7:46:11 PM PST by STARWISE
Oklahoma Mother, 18, Kills Intruder Breaking Into Her Home While on Phone With 911
911 operator told young mother she could not shoot until man entered her home.
(Excerpt) Read more at gma.yahoo.com ...
Also on ABC News!
.. Ping!
It's a lovely story, but it's been posted about 6 times now—LOL!
Really .. title search turned up nuttin'.
Hmmmmmm ....
Sometimes that happens.
It's still a lovely story, and probably even more people are seeing your post now that had missed it earlier.
Sure strange that it didn't show up.
First time I've seen it. I'm glad it was reposted.

Sure strange that it didn't show up.
My guess is that this determined young lady has a good father in the background that made sure his daughter knew how to handle firearms. I was incredibly impressed by her absolute presence of mind and sober intensity while she was on the phone with the 911 operator. She did not scream or get hysterical- she focused and that, of course, makes all the difference. We could have been reading a totally different story if she did not take matters into her own hands. Great story.
Not by title.
Weird .. but talk about cool
under extreme danger ..what
courage! Super brave Mom!
The 9-1-1 operator says don't shoot. WTH! Someone breaks into my house, I will shoot.
Thanks for posting. I missed it.
Nice job! Thanks STARWISE.
re post it again, young ladies need to read this. It will save lives
My suspicion is that ABC thought the story was that the 911 operator said it was ok to shoot. Certainly the libs would not approve of that.
Dammshootin! Very wishy washy on the part of the 911 operator to the specific question:
can I shoot him when he comes thru the door?
Well, you do what you have to do to protect your
Sheeeesh ..
Is there some kind of liability to 911
operators for advising the actual law?
No the 9-1-1 dispatcher said "I can't tell you that you can do that but you do what you have to do to protect your baby,"
Which she did. That one won't be breaking into people's places any more.. ever. He has assumed ambient temperature. The other one turned himself in. Must have heard she was looking for him. :)
The gal looks like she might be right handed but with a left master eye, given the way she's holding that double barrel in some of the pictures at ABC.
And widowed on Christmas Day.
"Well, you do what you have to do to protect your
Mother to mother that means "blow his f***ing head off!
El Gato:
She may have the phone at her right ear.
I love the way it all ended. That's some brave and sharp girl! I have a feeling that a lot of people will be helping her out.
It's not easy to kill someone, even in self defense. It will probably bother her for the rest of her life. But—like she said—never come between a mother and her baby!
WoW .. Nightline just replayed the story and video.
Me too!
Be sure to vote on the poll on the ABC Nightline website.
OK .. thanks!
She had a double barreled shotgun, a pistol, and a German shepherd. I'd say she was prepared. Too bad she let the other one live. 2 men armed with knives breaking into the home of a single (widowed) pretty woman should be put down.
ABC News Nightline poll
Do you think it's OK to shoot a burglar to stop a break-in?
(hey ABC: she already KNEW him as someone stalking her !!!!)
Out of 2825 voters,
Yes, you have a right to defend
No, law enforcement should
handle the situation
3,032 to 70.
What in the world are those 70 people thinking? This is a textbook example of "When seconds count, LEOs are only minutes away."
Dog looks like it's doing fine
Good shooting, Citizen. Civilization thanks you.
I think something is strange in this story.
If I'd just shot someone, I would not be on tv re-enacting. Isn't this a bit weird?

First time I heard about this, what a courageous woman, I hope she has an angel next to her forever more. And someone with a helping hand.
And this kinda makes me do a little out of the box thinking, and I have posted it before about having a camera equipped cellphone permanently attached to your home defense weapon such as a shotgun, not only can you dial 911 but you can also send a pic for recovery efforts of the perp who just did a Type O Picasso on the wall.
Well, there are 62 people who need to be in an idiots' home. (IMHO, of course)
So, where was puppy in all of this? Looks kinda sheepish.
I think the loss of her husband was more traumatizing and she needs the money.

The first part of a Q&A with new Fox golf analyst Paul Azinger landed online Saturday afternoon. That leaves the rest of the interview for this spot:
Q: Did you like dealing with the media as a player? It's interesting how some players who didn't enjoy the media aspect then get into the media business once the pressure is off them as a player and they can be more themselves.
A I loved the media, always, and made good friends with the beat writers because I figured I'd see them all the time and might be nice to know them on a first-name basis. And I hung out with them. The media was a big part of my success at Ryder Cup (as a captain for the 2008 team that won). They actually helped me with stats, who's hot and who's, as I was figuring things out.
Q: At one point in your career, you had to beat David Feherty in a playoff to win an European Tour event in 1990 in Germany. What kind of an opponent was he then?
A: He was hilarious then, but more an eccentric, quirky guy. I remember one year he had the lead at the British Open and we had a giant tent for all the players and families to eat and chill out. So before we out to play the next round, there's Feherty on one of these big long couches with headphones on, and it had to be a Walkman back then, his eyes are closed and his head going back and forth like Stevie Wonder, and I'm thinking, 'This dude is out there.' It's like watching (Miguel Angel) Jimenez warm up. There are just some things you shouldn't do in public. Feherty was grinding back then. It's like they say with Ryder Cups: Just go and have fun? When the bell rings, the fun is over. There's nothing fun about Ryder Cup. It's hard work.
Q: When Fox started in the sports business, it created a "Fox Attitude" that it injected into football, baseball, hockey … can it work for golf? Is this a set of viewers too set in their ways and don't want to see "attitude" come into play?
A: As long as we keep things fundamentally and functionally correct on our side, the technical side can do those kind of things. It's interesting. When you let the pictures tell a better story, we can talk about how, as human beings who played the game, how we had to think a different way to be accomplished, probably different than someone else, and that's what we want to do. I don't think anyone's going to be up there telling you what you just saw. Continue reading

One of our readers told us about a brand called Slick It Up when out at a bar recently and he thought it'd be something Homorazzi readers might like. I checked it out the next day and loved it and I'm just now finally getting around to sharing it with you guys. Some of you may already be familiar with the brand, but that was my first introduction.
Aside from all of the fetish gear and apparel, the site features some pretty freaking amazing summer wear that will definitely have you standing out this summer. From Electric Leopard and Galaxy Shorts to "stroke and change" color sequin shorts, their selection is definitely not something you'll see elsewhere.
I want all of it but I'm going to have to pace myself. Some of the items are pretty pricy, but that's because no one else is making them and also because the material is expensive. Check out the photos and videos of the items that really got my attention below. I've also included a link to the site underneath, but be warned that because of the fetish wear, it's NSFW. Enjoy!
Check out SLICKITUP.com to see the rest of their selection or to purchase any of the items shown above. I'm probably going to bite the bullet and order something now myself.

Long list of Utah elected officials back Mitt Romney
SALT LAKE CITY — Mitt Romney released a long list of the Utah elected officials backing his second White House bid on Wednesday that includes most of the state's congressional delegation, key executive officeholders and lawmakers.
"These endorsements represent the deep level of support that I have enjoyed over the years in Utah," Romney said in a statement accompanying the 1½-page list.
The former leader of the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City credited the bond he formed "with many Utah residents and officials during my time running the Olympics and continue to appreciate the level of support of so many in the state."
Only Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, the state's freshman senator, and the lone Democrat in the delegation, Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, are not on the list of Romney's Utah congressional supporters.
Lee has not endorsed a presidential candidate yet, his spokeswoman, Emily Bennion, said. But Sen. Orrin Hatch, Rep. Jason Chaffetz and Rep. Rob Bishop, all R-Utah, have backed Romney.
Hatch said Romney "has the proven record to lead our country and understands that middle-class families, small businesses and the private sector are the key to a bright future — not government."
Chaffetz, who announced his support for Romney Tuesday, called him "the right man at this critical time to lead us toward recovery." Bishop cited Romney's "record of job creation that the president lacks."
Also not on the list is Gov. Gary Herbert, who served as lieutenant governor under the other GOP presidential candidate in the 2012 race with ties to Utah, former Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr.
Lt. Gov. Greg Bell, who is pushing for the state to fund an earlier presidential primary that would benefit Romney's campaign, is a supporter, as is Attorney General Mark Shurtleff.
Herbert has been careful not to endorse either Romney or Huntsman but has pointed out he backed Romney in 2008 and has encouraged him to run again.
Most of Utah's GOP establishment also endorsed Romney then, except for Huntsman, who backed the party's eventual nominee, Arizona Sen. John McCain. Some of McCain's top aides are now working for Huntsman's presidential campaign.
The Republican lawmakers supporting Romney include Senate President Michael Waddoups, R-Taylorsville, and the rest of his leadership team. But on the House side, House Majority Leader Brad Dee, R-Ogden, is the only member of the House GOP leadership on the list.
One lawmaker, Rep. Paul Ray, R-Clearfield, said his name "was mistakenly listed" by Romney because he is endorsing Huntsman, who "jump-started our state's economy by cutting taxes, reducing waste and passing market-based health care reform."
Utah has been a major source of campaign cash for Romney, who raised more than $5 million here in the 2008 campaign. Romney also won an unprecedented 90 percent of the vote over McCain in Utah's 2008 GOP primary.
Utah Officials Endorsing Mitt Romney:

September 27, 2008 by Brett Carlson
BISMARCK, N.D. - With an Angler of the Year title and four PWT victories, Tommy Skarlis is one of the most accomplished anglers in professional walleye fishing. But up until today, his resume had one glaring omission: a Walmart FLW Walleye Tour Championship victory.
Skarlis may best be know for his colorful personality and his sponsor monologues - but make no mistake, he can catch walleyes with the best of them. He proved it this week by locating a huge pod of Missouri River walleyes and executing each of the four tournament days.
The Waukon, Iowa, angler found his honeyhole with teammate and friend Ross Grothe on the second day of practice. The area, located near the mouth of Beaver Creek, took 45 minutes to reach each morning from the launch site at MacLean Bottoms.
Once there, Skarlis went to work rigging and jigging a break from 5 to 11 feet of water. He initially explored the area with Lindy Techni-glo jigs, Lindy Fuzz-E-Grubs and Berkley Gulp Alive minnows. As practice unfolded, he discovered that the fish were reacting better to Lindy rigs and night crawlers. On his Lindy rigs he used an 1/8-ounce weight and a 7-foot leader - although in practice he used a 5-foot leader. His Abu Garcia Cardinal reels were spooled with 10-pound Trilene XL, and his leaders consisted of 8-pound Trilene XL. His two rods of choice were a Fenwick Techna Elite Tech and a Fenwick Techna AV.
"The leaders got longer as the tournament went on because the fish got fickle," said Skarlis. "Ninety percent of my fish came on the Lindy rigs. During the final two days, all my lines were Lindy rigs. The fish would just load up, and I would whack them. That new Elite Tech rod has great hyperbolic action and a great tip. And every time I thought about switching from a night crawler to a minnow or to plastic, I would get a fish.
"Most of the bites were coming in 7 to 10 feet of water. The fish were relating to the old river bank. Any stretch with gravel and wood was especially productive."
The title was up for grabs until Skarlis lugged out two 4-pounders that anchored his 13-pound, 10-ounce limit. In a tournament that many thought would be decided by ounces, Skarlis bested Robert Blosser by nearly 6 pounds - finishing with 29-7.
"We quit at a little after 12:15 today, and the smallest fish we had was an 18 1/2-incher."
When Skarlis was asked about the key to his victory, he recited two phrases his father often told him.
"Most men don't plan to fail; they fail to plan. I was told by George Skarlis to plan your work and work your plan."
In winning his first FLW Walleye Tour event, the man known in the industry as Hollywood claimed $150,000 - the largest payday in the sport of tournament walleye fishing. That payday more than doubled his FLW Outdoors career earnings to just over $260,000.
"I know that this is the biggest accomplishment of my career," he added. "I hope that I don't ever lose this feeling because it is absolutely amazing."
Blosser proud of second
Blosser, fishing his first Walleye Tour Championship, performed this week with the savvy of a veteran. He tapped into a strong leadcore trolling bite 62 miles south of the launch by pulling his baits at 4 mph. For some reference, anglers typically troll around 1 mph on Lake Erie in the spring.
"Early in the week we were just ripping the crankbaits, and once they saw them flash, they had to react," Blosser said. "Where I was fishing, it was a late-morning and early-afternoon bite. I never had a fish in the box before 10:30 all week."
Despite the late starts, Blosser finished with a two-day total of 23 pounds, 15 ounces. After catching 14-1 on day three, he sacked 9-14 with only four fish Saturday. The 30-year-old from Poynette, Wis., used mostly Berkley Frenzy Flicker Shads and No. 7 Rapala Jointed Shad Raps.
"Today I had to resort to something I don't do very often. We saved our day by running up the river and rigging up two in the last 25 seconds."
For his second-place finish, he will take home a $65,000 check to his wife, who is expecting their fist child in two weeks. In addition, Blosser's father, an FLW Tour bass pro, made an emotional surprise appearance to see his son's first top-10 finish. For more on that, see Quick Bites.
"I was just happy to make the cut - the rest is gravy."
Frank third
Fishing a four-mile stretch near the Cannonball River, pro Todd Frank had a nice honeyhole all to himself that he parlayed into a two-day total of 23 pounds, 7 ounces. Frank would have finished second had he not pitched back a 2 1/2-pound, 18 1/2-inch walleye. That mistake cost him $13,000. Instead of earning $30,000, he will return to Pulaski, N.Y., with $17,000.
"I was trolling Bomber Fat Free Shads in 9 to 14 feet of water with Berkley Fireline Crystal. I would troll them at 2 to 2.2 mph, and with the current, those baits were running about 3 mph. I had one bait in particular that outfished the others 4-to-1. I had several others that were identical, but this crankbait was just perfectly tuned."
Frank preferred the Fat Free Shad crankbaits because of their strong rattle.
"A lot of baits have the rattle, but these have big beads, and they just knock. I know that played a big role in my success."
Other than releasing his fifth fish, Frank was content with his performance.
"I just got greedy and let it go, and it cost me big."
Grothe falls to fourth
Using the exact same techniques and fishing the same water as the pro winner, Grothe stumbled on day four, catching four walleyes that weighed 8 pounds, 10 ounces. Each day he and Skarlis would travel 37 miles south before jigging and rigging the mouth of Beaver Creek.
After starting the day in boat No. 2, Grothe finished fourth with 22 pounds, 13 ounces - earning $22,500. But as he said all week, "If I don't win it, I want Tommy to win it."
While Skarlis had never won a Walleye Tour event prior to today, Grothe won the 2006 season opener on the Detroit River. Today he was surprised by his wife and son who drove seven hours to Bismarck from Northfield, Minn.
"I threw back a few fish this morning that would've helped me," Grothe said. "But I set standards for myself every day, and those fish didn't meet my standards. I thought this was a great opportunity, especially after positioning myself yesterday, but I didn't get the bites to capitalize. I'm proud of myself - I did the best I could."
Gilman fifth
Completing an incredibly consistent 2008 season, Chris Gilman earned $18,500 and finished in fifth place with a final-round weight of 22 pounds, 12 ounces.
The Chisago City, Minn., pro fished a three-mile stretch of water 20 miles south of the launch. He had a unique program in that he would drag live bait downstream and then troll back up with original floating Rapalas and Shad Raps.
"The bigger fish came on cranks, but I was catching more legals with live bait," he said.
Gilman boxed a skinny 16 1/2-inch fish early in the day, which he sorely regrets.
"I was really trying to fish for third. I'm a fairly conservative guy, but I don't know what I was thinking there."
For the past two seasons, the three-time PWT winner has been the best angler on the Walleye Tour. Last season he finished second in the Angler of the Year race, and this season he notched three top-10 finishes.
"If you really think about it, if I hadn't make the mistake at Erie, I would have had four top-10s in five tournaments."
Rest of the best
Rounding out the top 10 pro finalists at the FLW Walleye Tour Championship on the Missouri River:
6th: Todd Riley of Amery, Wis., 16-11, $12,500
7th: Tom Keenan of Hatley, Wis., 16-9, $11,500
8th: Ted Takasaki of East Gull Lake, Minn., 16-2, $5,500
9th: Brett King of Claremont, Minn., 11-7, $7,000
10th: Joe Okada of Fitchburg, Wis., 11-7, $8,500

Campus Quality:
Each day I go into school, it feels like a big family. I have not felt that way at any institution. They help with job placement and that is a plus.
Online Courses:
I do not like online courses. I need face to face interaction. Communicating through emails with my teacher is fine, but I get more out of my education if it is in a classroom setting. I never spoke to any of my classmates except for when we had to post a greeting in a mass email. The workload was fine but having to wait for an answer to a question would take 2 days.
Academic Flexibility:
Erie 1 Boces has classes that I can attend around my daughters schedule. They provide morning and evening classes and I get out at a reasonable time. When I transferred none of my credits from the previous schools I went to did not transfer. I was well aware of that due to being told when I enrolled in those previous schools. The fact that I have to start all over again does not bother me at all. Knowledge is power.
Student Body:
Not too much diversity that I've seen. A typical student is someone that either has or wants to work in construction.
Academic Experience:
My professor has been welding professionally for around 35 years. I know I am getting the best learning experience I can through my professor.
Academic Experience:
I love welding their welding program. I am currently taking welding 2 after completing welding 1 a few weeks ago. Getting hands on experience in an actual welding shop is great! We are challenged every class by the curriculum, it is also very fun! There are plenty of job opportunities for welders, along with a few skilled trades unions I could join.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
The tuition is fairly priced. It is hard to receive financial aid through the school.
Overall Experience:
I like this school. It is an easy transition into the world, because it offers the courses you need to succeed. There are no Gen Eds, which is a down side if you want to transfer to another school, as well as their "credits" don't exactly transfer anywhere. Other schools may or may not give you "credit" for already knowing material. They prepare you well for the BIG EXAM aka the NCLEX-PN Licensing Exam. They make sure you are ready to take it and pass when the time comes. The instructors are with you every step of the way and are willing to help whenever feasable.

Obama: Republicans Aren't Funding AIDS Issues
A gang of protesters got that quote out of him, after he begged them to go away.
According to President Obama, some pesky "young people" protesting for more global AIDS funding have been showing up "at every rally" and interrupting him. Today, in Connecticut to discuss the economy, Obama addressed these crazy young people, and ended up addressing AIDS funding in the process. The president put his planned remarks on hold and said:
"Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me, young people? Let me just say this: You've been appearing at every rally we've been doing, and we're funding global AIDS, and the other side is not. So I don't know why you think this is a useful strategy to take. I think it would make a lot more sense for you guys to go to the folks who aren't interested in funding global AIDS, and go to that rally. We're trying to figure out how to finance the things that you want financed. You guys have made your point. Let's go."
Public speaking is hard enough as it is, and at least Obama didn't just crumple his speech up in a ball and throw it at a picket-sign-carrying protester or something. Regardless, his advice that AIDS funding advocates go bother "the other side," who aren't the president, and who are, according to him, somewhat dubiously, specifically not interested in AIDS funding, doesn't sound very effective.
Back in the eighties, AIDS activist Larry Kramer and his gang of supporters used to pull this stunt regularly, thereby changing AIDS funding forever. So, at least Obama wants AIDS activists to protest, even if it's at someone else's rally. But, you know, maybe the "young people" shouldn't just head to the not-president's rally if they want to make themselves and their issues known. Which we think is exactly what they just did, quite successfully.
