[size=18]Brett Favre isn't as clutch as you think[/size]
By David Fleming
Page 2
Pushing 40, with a sore right foot, a gimpy knee, two bad shoulders and a stiff neck, Brett Favre bounced from the pocket and ripped a 32-yard game-winning laser to a blanketed Greg Lewis streaking across the back of the 49ers' end zone. And when the tiny rubber FieldTurf pellets gave off their telltale rooster tail, indicating that, yes, Lewis had gotten his right toe down in bounds, the entire football world seemed to celebrate the fact that Favre had worked his gritty kind of magic one more time.
"The legend continues to grow," said Vikes kicker Ryan Longwell.
That's what I thought, too.
See, the past few years, I've been particularly hard on Favre and especially the cult of personality that, despite his horrible play and his mind-blowing egocentricity, has continued to idolize him and protect him like some kind of Norman Rockwell-type national treasure.
After he expertly moved the Vikes 80 yards in 1:29 with no timeouts against a swarming 49ers defense remade in the image of head coach Mike Singletary, word came that this was Favre's 43rd come-from-behind game-winning drive. And when I heard that, well, I wanted to join in with the rest of the world and celebrate all of Brett's wonderful, Wrangler-wrapped, oh I don't know, super Favre-i-ness. Forty-three game-winning drives? Are you kidding me? Jay Cutler hasn't even started 41 games. John Elway, the comeback kid himself, finished with 47. Geez, I thought, maybe I have been too hard on Favre these past few years.
As a tribute, and an apology of sorts, I set out to chronicle each of Favre's previous 42 courageous comebacks leading up to Sunday's Metrodome Miracle. "It was incredible," said Vikings corner Cedric Griffin. "I was on the sideline thinking, 'Brett Favre is known for his comebacks. Brett Favre is known for his comebacks.' And look what we got!"
That's the way this was being tallied, repackaged and sold to football fans, right? That if you thought the winning throw against the 49ers was something, heck, that was actually the 43rd time that scruffy, lovable No. 4 had put a team on his back and, against all odds (and, I think, a fire-breathing dragon or two) carried an entire franchise to glory.
You know, like Favre did during Comeback No. 1, all the way back on Sept. 20, 1992 when, according to The List, he hit Kitrick Taylor for a 35-yard TD pass with 13 seconds left to beat Cincinnati 24-23.
And, just like Favre did during Comeback No. 2 against the Eagles on Nov. 15, 1992, when The List says his magical arm and Zeus-like pocket presence guided the Packers on a two-play drive that covered zero yards before Chris Jacke kicked a 41-yard field goal with no time remaining to beat Philly 27-24.
A two-play drive covering zero yards counts as a game-winning, come from behind, fourth-quarter drive? That's the stuff of cardiac quarterbacking? That's the stuff of living legends and the kind of pure grit that evokes images of playing sandlot football at dusk in the street out in front of my childhood home?
I mean, from all the coverage after the game I was led to believe that Favre has delivered the same kind of heroic, Goliath-sized gut punch a total of 42 other times. Boy was I wrong. Really wrong. Like, Nickelback is a good band, wrong. In fact, you want to know, before Sunday, how many times in those supposed 42 game-winning come from behind kids-gather-round-and-listen-to-your-grampa-Flem-tell-a-football-story drives that Favre threw a touchdown pass in the final 10 seconds of the game?
As much as I wanted, just this once, to be a purveyor (or is it pusher?) of the Favre legend, the truth is only nine of those drives were the result of No. 4's throwing a touchdown in the final two minutes of a game. Nine. "It's hard to even recall all of them," Favre said Sunday when asked about his game-winning drives. "This one was pretty special."
It was. And don't get me wrong, Favre has had some amazingly clutch and gutsy finishes when he did put the team on his back. Like Comeback No. 7, a road playoff game on Jan. 9, 1994, when he hit Sterling Sharpe on a 40-yard TD pass with 55 seconds left to beat the Lions 28-24.
He just hasn't done it anywhere close to 43 times.
Or 33 times. Or even 23 times.
I live near a town with one sports radio station. Ratings-wise this place is usually battling neck and neck with the Spanish-language Christian church broadcasts, but that doesn't stop them from using that guy from the monster truck commercials to declare them to be the unquestioned, ass-kicking, No. 1 sports radio station in the city, city, city, city citycitycity.
It's all statistical gobbledygook. A manipulation of data. And you know how much I love that kind of stuff.
Obviously, though, this statistical myth isn't Brett's fault. He's got nothing to do with it. My guess is he couldn't care less about this kind of stuff. He's not standing over some poor NFL statistician every Monday morning making sure his numbers are correct, like I always imagined Dan Marino would do. And it's not like Favre needs his image or his accomplishments to be exaggerated, either. The guy's a great player. A credit to the game. A first-ballot Hall of Famer.
Quarterback is the most important position in our most popular sport, and in our stats-obsessed culture it drives us a little batty, I think, when we can't easily quantify stuff like leadership, guts, poise and grit. Then someone figures out that clutch play late in games can actually be researched and tallied using fourth-quarter scoring, and the next thing you know some PR intern in Packers PJs formulates a definition of a comeback so broad and vague that, I believe, it's now possible to actually credit Favre for Santonio Holmes' TD catch in Super Bowl XLIII.
I went back through the list, giving Favre credit for game-winning drives in the final 4:00 of the fourth quarter that ended in field goals, TD runs or passes. And that still got him to only 22. Several times, I discovered, Favre has been given credit for "coming back" from a tie score, which, I believe, is mathematically impossible. Even the pure "comebacks" like the one from Sunday are deceiving, since a lot of the credit should go to the Vikings defense for forcing two three-and-outs in the final 5:30 to get the ball back to Favre.
Trust me, though, the statistical spoon-bending on this comeback list only gets worse.
I mean, Comeback No. 37 on Sept. 9, 2007 was a classic: a four-play, 6-yard drive that led to a last-second 42-yard field goal to beat Philly, 16-13.
Comeback No. 39? Oct. 29, 2007, an 82-yard pass to Greg Jennings that gave the Packers a 19-13 win over the Broncos in OT. I understand that this was an amazing, life-altering play for many of you Favre fans. (Yes, I read my emails.) But that doesn't change the fact that it was in overtime with the score tied at 13. It's a hallmark play, no question, one of the all-time great game-winning throws in Packer lore, but it's still not a comeback and, sadly, doesn't belong on The List.
Comeback No. 12 on Nov. 1, 1998, was a game-tying 45-yard field goal by Ryan Longwell with 13:14 to go in a game that ended 36-22. Likewise, Comeback No. 29 on Dec. 14, 2003, was a 40-yard pass to Robert Ferguson with 11:18 to play against the Chargers in a game that ended up 38-21. So Favre is credited with orchestrating a nail-biting comeback win even though the Packers scored three unanswered touchdowns in the fourth quarter.
I could go on -- and on -- but the point is these are not exactly John Elway's leading the Broncos 98 yards down the field inside Cleveland Stadium in the AFC Championship Game comebacks -- are they? On Sunday Brett Favre threw his first ever game-winning touchdown pass in the final 10 seconds of play. Not his 43rd.
He now has ten game-winning touchdown passes thrown in the final two minutes of play. Not 43.
He has orchestrated 22 drives that helped win games. Not 43.
If those "real" comeback numbers aren't impressive enough, it's not Brett Favre who needs help.
It's us.

In the interest of fairness, see the articles I posted in the NFL section that show how the numbers for all the great quarterbacks have been greatly exaggerated.

Some teams exaggerate and some teams don't. I think the Dolphins and 49ers are pretty accurate and the Broncos are way off. Almost as bad as the Favre stats. Marino and Montana were that good, Elway and Favre were fictional.
I thought Favre was closer to the high 20s as counted by an unbiased source. It doesn't matter much, it is still about half of what they credit him with.
I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Favre is NOT a come-from-behind/clutch qb.
Other things people like to say, that are not true:
- "Shaq makes his free throws when it counts."
- "Jarrett Bush is a good special teams player."
- "Jay Cutler is a franchise qb."
- "Mike Shanahan is an elite coach"

Alright that one bugged me. He's a good special teams player in the context of the Packers. Overall, he's probably very average, but an average player on Green Bay's special teams is probably one of the better special teams players on this team. That' more or less what I was getting at. He's going to get cut if Will Blackmon is healthy and someone will grab him as a gunner eventually.
As for the topic. King of comebacks? I don't think there is one because even Joe Montana had bad games and bad moments in clutch situations. But Favre was clutch and there is no debate about it. So was John Elway for that matter. I think maybe because of the national media's man crush on both of those players, other fan bases give them more flack than they would some other guys. Still, I'd take those two over say Peyton Manning or the mentioned Dan Marino in a clutch moment anyday. I'd also take their talent over anyone.
In terms of just pure clutch though, Joe Montana kind of does define it and Tom Brady really defines it in modern day lore as well IMO.

I recall that, however, you said people and Shaq, yes he's huge, but he's one person, not people. :P

Alejandro Andrés Zambra Infantas (Santiago, Chile, 1975 - ) is a Chilean poet and novelist.
Early life[edit]
Alejandro Zambra was born in 1975 in Villa Portales, a district of Santiago, Chile, to Horacio Zambra and Rosa Infantas. At age five, his family moved to the village of Las Terrazas in Maipú.[citation needed]
Zambra studied at the Instituto Nacional General José Miguel Carrera and the University of Chile, from which he graduated in 1997 with a degree in Hispanic literature. He won a scholarship to pursue postgraduate studies in Madrid, where he obtained an MA in Hispanic studies. Back in Chile, he received a PhD in literature from the Pontifical Catholic University.[citation needed]
Zambra teaches at the School of Literature at Diego Portales University in Santiago.[citation needed]
Zambra's first novel, Bonsái, was awarded the Chilean Critics Award for best novel of the year in 2006 and attracted much attention in Chile.[2] As the highly influential Santiago newspaper El Mercurio summed up, "The publication of Bonsai ... marked a kind of bloodletting in Chilean literature. It was said (or argued) that it represented the end of an era, or the beginning of another, in the nation's letters."[3] In 2011 the book was turned into a film of the same name.[4]
Short stories and articles by Zambra have been featured in magazines such as The New Yorker, The Paris Review, Harper's, Tin House, McSweeney's Quarterly Concern, Vice, Zoetrope, The Virginia Quarterly Review and Rattapallax.[citation needed]

You have the power to end brain cancer.
The 3 HPV vaccines available in Canada are Gardasil, Cervarix and Gardasil 9. All 3 protect against infection with the 2 types of HPV most commonly associated with cancer (HPV-16 and HPV-18). HPV-16 and HPV-18 are responsible for 70% of all cervical cancers. These types of HPV are also linked to cancer of the anus, vulva, vagina and penis, as well as some oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancers.
Gardasil also protect against HPV-6 and HPV-11, which are responsible for 90% of genital warts.
Gardasil 9 also protects against HPV-6 and HPV-11, as well as 5 other types of HPV that can cause cancer.
Gardasil was the first HPV vaccine approved in Canada. It is a quadrivalent vaccine that protects against 4 different HPV types: HPV- 6, HPV-11, HPV-16 and HPV-18.
Gardasil helps protect females between 9 and 45 years of age against:
In females and males between 9 and 26 years of age, Gardasil also helps prevent:
Gardasil also helps protect females (9–45 years of age) and males (9–26 years of age) against anogenital warts.
Cervarix is a bivalent vaccine that protects against 2 high-risk HPV types: HPV-16 and HPV-18.
Cervarix helps protects females between 10 and 25 years of age against:
Cervarix does not protect against genital warts.
Gardasil 9
Gardasil 9 is the newest HPV vaccine approved in Canada. It protects against 9 different HPV types:
Gardasil 9 helps protect females between 9 and 45 years of age against:
In females and males between 9 and 26 years of age, Gardasil 9 also helps prevent:
Gardasil 9 also helps protect females (9–45 years of age) and males (9–26 years of age) against anogenital warts.
The vaccines work by stimulating the body to produce antibodies against the types of HPV they target. The aim of the vaccines is to prevent HPV infections and therefore the diseases associated with these HPV types (prophylactic vaccines). The HPV vaccines do not treat HPV infections, diseases or cancers related to HPV infections.
The vaccines work best when given to young people before they become sexually active (which includes sexual intercourse, genital skin-to-skin contact and oral sex). The goal is to protect young people before they are exposed to the HPV types that the vaccines cover.
The vaccines are not live (they do not contain the active virus), so a person cannot get HPV from the vaccine.
Studies have shown that Gardasil, Cervarix and Gardasil 9 are highly effective in preventing infection with the types of HPV they target. Evidence from many clinical trials shows that the vaccines are highly effective in preventing persistent infection from HPV-16 and HPV-18, as well as precancerous cervical lesions associated with these types of HPV.
In clinical trials, researchers have found that Gardasil is effective in preventing precancerous conditions of the vagina, vulva and anus. It is also very effective in preventing anal and genital (anogenital) warts caused by HPV-6 and HPV-11. At this time, Cervarix is not approved for preventing precancerous conditions of the vagina, vulva or anus.
Some research shows that Gardasil and Cervarix vaccines may also provide partial protection against other high-risk types of HPV, such as HPV-31, HPV-33 and HPV-45, which are similar to HPV-16 and HPV-18. This is called cross protection. However, more research is needed to determine the degree of effectiveness and the duration of protection against these other HPV types.
Gardasil and Cervarix have been approved by Health Canada and recommended by Canada's National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI). Health Canada approves vaccines based on their effectiveness and safety, while NACI makes recommendations for the use of vaccines including identifying groups of people at risk for diseases that can be prevented with vaccines. The most recent NACI recommendations on HPV vaccination were made in 2015. NACI hasn't yet made recommendations for Gardasil 9.
NACI recommends that either HPV vaccine (Gardasil or Cervarix) be given to prevent cervical cancer and precancerous cervical changes in:
Only Gardasil is approved for girls and women aged 9–45 to prevent vaginal and vulvar cancer and the precancerous conditions associated with these cancers, as well as anal and genital (anogenital) warts. Gardasil is also the only vaccine approved for girls and women ages 9–26 to prevent anal cancer and the precancerous condition associated with this cancer.
NACI recommends Gardasil for boys and young men to prevent anal cancer, its precancerous condition and anogenital warts. The vaccine is most effective when given to males before they become sexually active. NACI recommends that Gardasil be used for:
There is some evidence that Gardasil may also prevent penile, perianal and perineal precancerous conditions (intraepithelial neoplasias) and their associated cancers, although it is currently not approved for this use.
Research is being done to see if vaccinating boys and young men before they become sexually active can prevent them from passing on HPV to females. In turn, this could help reduce cervical cancer risk in women.
Gardasil, Cervarix and Gardasil 9 are given by an injection into an arm muscle. The vaccines are given 2 or 3 times over a 6 to 12 month period. The schedule of doses makes sure the vaccines are as effective as possible. If all doses of the vaccine are not given, or they are not given at the right time, you may not get the full benefit of the vaccine.
Males and females can have 2 or 3 doses of Gardasil or Cervarix if they are between the ages of 9 and 14.
Males and females should have 3 doses of the HPV vaccine if they:
|HPV vaccine
|Vaccination schedule with 2 doses
|Vaccination schedule with 3 doses
Gardasil 9
Current evidence tells us that the vaccines are safe and well-tolerated. They have similar side effects as those commonly experienced with other vaccines. Of the side effects reported, most of these have not been serious. The most common side effects of the vaccines are soreness (pain), swelling, itching and redness at the injection site. Headache and fatigue have also been reported. The safety of both HPV vaccines is being followed in Canada and other countries on an ongoing basis.
The vaccines are not recommended for:
The length of time that HPV vaccines provide protection for is not fully known. Information so far shows that protection can last at least 8 years for Gardasil and at least 9.4 years with Cervarix in females not previously infected with HPV.
Information from longer follow-up of both vaccines will answer questions about long-term effectiveness, the duration of protection and whether booster doses will be needed for continued protection against HPV.
All provinces and territories have voluntary, school-based HPV vaccination programs for girls. Prince Edward Island and Alberta provide similar vaccination programs for boys.
The HPV vaccines prevent infection from the high-risk HPV types associated with only 70% of cervical cancers. This means that about 30% of cervical cancers will not be prevented by the vaccines. Getting vaccinated against HPV should be used as a complement to, not a replacement for, cervical cancer screening with Pap tests. All females – whether or not they receive an HPV vaccine – still need to follow the cervical cancer screening guidelines in their province or territory. Regular cervical cancer screening is important for finding precancerous changes in the cervix early, before cancer develops.
The time between initial HPV infection and development of cervical cancer averages 20 years. Because of the long lead time between HPV infection and cancer developing, it will take many years before the full impact of HPV vaccination on the incidence and deaths related to cervical cancer is established. Canada will be collecting information on HPV infections, the number of people who get vaccinated and HPV-related diseases.
More research is needed to know if HPV vaccines will also prevent other cancers associated with HPV, such as oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancers.
The HPV vaccines do not protect against breast, ovarian, prostate and other reproductive cancers because these cancers are not caused by HPV.
The Canadian Cancer Society is actively lobbying the federal government to establish a national caregivers strategy to ensure there is more financial support for this important group of people.

If true, it's a step in the right direction. LGBT might be able to salvage their reputation with better leadership.
I loved Queerfest - to the above poster - leadership is investing in community, and often, controversial.
Good for Neighbours, and since when is sponsorship a bailout?
Is that a new term for all the events the Stranger sponsors? Bailouts?
wait til dan finds out they're replacing shannon with Mark 'Mom' Finley....
This is great news! Someone who is hell bent on dividing the community should not be running our LGBT Community Center. I hope the board chooses a future leader that will work with the greater community.
Completely off-topic (there should be some kind of wild card thread here or something every so often):
I just saw an ad from the Ad Council on the "truth about marijuana" I went to the site and the front page only had a link to the same thing: the "truth about marijuana." The rest of the front page was basically about Rx drugs.
But when I went to the "truth" page they had a fun little quiz.
You can check it out right over here. Kids who smoke pot are prone to have more sexual partners, I bet you didn't know that? I learned it at the AD COUNCIL!
Freddy @2 - Thomas wasn't investing in community, she was capitalizing on (and encouraging) a deep division in the community as a way to raise the profile of her organization. It was poor leadership for LGBT Ctr to get so enmeshed in the politics of it - she bet the reputation of the organization on which Pride events would reflect the desires of the community, and she chose the wrong pony.
The board of the LGBT Ctr should be looking for someone who will work hard to put this mess behind them.
Do not agree. I think there were many permutations about Pride, when, where and what ... and Shannon decided to offer a viable alternative on a different date on C. Hill . with much backing, including her board.
It was a success. Now, with the C. Hill business money, it will go forward as the Sat. option for years.
So what is the divide? Big community, big Pride, more options... all quite OK and all a success. From what I heard every single Pride event, everywhere was a record, Baton Rouge, pancake feed to Wildrose-Cuff street parties.
What is the rub? It is like there is still a claque of professional clappers that decided there is only formula, better/must follow it, only downtown.
Sorry, Genvieve, lovely name, old news.
For the millionth time: the supporters of the downtown parade don't see the rub. They were happy to have both events. The Center and Shannon and the SGN wanted to kill the downtown event and move all pride activities back to the hill. It's hard to "get along" with people who are trying to kill you.
Dan nailed it.
And I'd have to add, it's ridiculous to give credit to the LGBT Ctr or anyone other than those businesses for the parties at the Cuff and/or the Wildrose. Those parties are privately run, have been around for years, and have always been popular. Moving the parade downtown was never going to affect them negatively, nor was that the intent.
I'm glad you liked Queerfest, though.
Perhaps - there is another way to say all of this.
After the shock of major changes was over, and it is over, a new concept has emerged - PRIDE WEEKEND - for the first time.
Do more, go more, lots of people, lots of money, lots of fun - and all else - open the vision and the concept to cover much more.
I think that is what happened this year, and all that fear and accusation about wanting to "kill the event" is foolish.
Pride money problems, unrelated to Shannon/ LGBT Center or the SGN or the Stranger almost played a very a big role.
Now, water under the bridge. Finally, Seattle PRIDE WEEKEND is fait accompli. Enjoy. And please give up the grudges.
Next year is the year of ejecting the Bush ultra right wing power elite - so much bigger than Pride.
I am so sad to see Shannon go. She is an amazing leader. I worked with her on the QueerFest project. There I said it. Dan... you want to know what the QueerFest committee wanted? We wanted to host an event for Pride. Why is that a crime? No one tried to kill anything. Shannon Thomas did nothing but pour her heart and soul into QueerFest. She set out to do something and didn't think it'd be right to back down, and not give every single person in this community to opportunity to celebrate Pride where ever they wanted. Genevieve, you need to get your facts straight and quit reading Dan's bullshit. It's clogged your brain.
PML! I'm pretty sure most of my comments on Slog over the however long it's been have been arguing against Dan's (and the Stranger's) position on things. But if it makes you feel better to lump every queer who thinks Shannon Thomas stepping down is a positive thing for the center as a blind Dan Savage groupie, knock yourself out.
Whoa... Everyone calm down. This is not about pride. Shannon has decided to move on and to take what sounds like a much needed hiatus after a very, very demanding four year tenure as executive director of the LGBT Community Center. Shannon has worked vigilantly to establish the center as well, a "center". Seattle does not have a strong LGBT community "CENTER" and all of Shannons efforts over the last four years have been toward establishing one. Let's not allow Pride/Queerfest to overshadow Shannon's departure, instead let her work over the last four years speak for itself. Shannon has brought us the "Fruitbowl Awards", a much needed and relevant annual recognition ceremony that brings LGBT commmunity organizations into the greater Seattle community spotlight to be recognized regionally for what they do year round. Thank you Shannon!
Mark Mom FInley is a MONSTER!
I hope Michael Strangeways was joking...

Safer highway more important than grass

New and planned residences south and east of the 225 West Blue Ridge Road intersection (Berwick Downs, Braewood, Kings Creek, Kenmure, The Villas and Charleston Gardens) will generate 200 more vehicles going through the 225/West Blue Ridge intersection. This, plus the half blind curve in front of the Wrinkled Egg, create a dangerous, ever increasing risk for a severe accident if a turn lane is not installed at the intersection. When that accident occurs and a family is maimed, or a child killed, those who blocked the installation of a turn lane must bear full responsibility for the tragedy. This is not fun and games.
Signing a petition is easy; living with the consequences may not be as easy. Think it through folks. Dont get stampeded by the herd. Were talking about a turn lane, not a superhighway!

Let me start this topic off by saying that I love trains. Not specifically LEGO trains, just trains in general. That being said, I have never actually built my own LEGO train outside of the kits, like the BNSF. I thought this contest would give me a good excuse to try building my first train, and I'm actually pretty pleased with it.
So, with out further ado, I present you with my CSX switcher diesel:
More pictures here.
C & C are welcome.
EDIT: I almost forgot: It does have a 9v motor, so it is able to run.

"A Horse Named Sorrow is simply, inexorably beautiful. It is sexy, cinematic, the prose itself an absolute joy to read, and often funny as holy hell. It is, at the same time, one of the saddest works I have ever read: piercing, poignant, and memorable."
—Maureen Seaton, author of Furious Cooking
"Powerful is an understatement. What Healey has created here is a new classic in literary fiction, along the lines of On the Road and Giovanni's Room, which will echo in the heart of his readers like the fading encore of the perfect song."
—Lambda Book Report
"This magical tale about a boy unexpectedly turning into a faun is funny, poignant and erotic. Faun offers a wise meditation on our relationship to the earth as well as each other—and to our sexuality, which is the 'greenest' part of us all."
—Mark Thompson, author of the Gay Spirit, Gay Soul, Gay Body trilogy
"Shows us men and women whose lives have been, or are about to be, forever altered by love. . . . SHARP, EMPATHIC, AND UNFORGETTABLE."
—Bernard Cooper, author of The Bill from My Father
"Trebor Healey's writing is suffused with the purest emotion, the bravest, funniest tone, and the perfect balance of poetics, daring, and charm."
—Joy Nicholson, author of Tribes of Palos Verdes

I am setting up a WordPress Blog. When I upload my custom image for the header, the image appears with a crop box. This box is about 15% shorter in width than the image and I can't expand the width of the crop box. WP says it can accept 940 x 198 px images.
I have uploaded different sized images - same results each time.
I have tried several other templates - again, the exact same results.
What do I need to do? This should be a no brainer.
Thanks, Jack

Hi everybody!
I read plenty of threads in this forum on this question but I can't get anything working.
I want to set one of the pages as my frontpage and create a link to the blog in the list of links to the pages.
Then, I want include in that page an excerpt of my last post in the blog (title and just a few lines excerpt).
Finally, I want to include in that page as well an an excerpt of the last post in the my phpbb2 forum (title and just a few lines excerpt).
I've downloaded so far runphp, cg-quickphp, cg power pack, sem-static-front wordpress plugins and phpbb_fetch_all phpbb plugin.
I'm driving myself crazy, how can I insert excerpts of recent posts in a page?

love these! added some dried cranberries in too for a nice mix of flavors. froze the leftovers and popped them in the toaster oven for snacks later on.
Lovely flavors. I added already crumbled blue cheese. Next time, I will add even more cheese for more flavor
I made these for a family gathering and they were a big hit! I skipped the chopped nuts and added sauteed chopped prosciutto to the tops before baking...they were delicious! I made them one day ahead and reheated, as per the instructions-it worked out perfectly!
This was incredible! We used the recipe exactly, except only used about half the sugar since our pears were very ripe and sweet. Thank you so much for sharing this!
I just made these for a new years eve party and am thrilled at the way they turned out. I bought already baked phyllo cups so I don't have to bake them. I bought the brown pears (don't remember the name..) and sauteed them with the butter and also a splash of a good dry white wine. I let them simmer for several minutes longer than the directions to let the wine reduce. I used brown sugar and already crumbled blue cheese. When the pears were done I just mixed everything together and spooned them in the cups, then sprinkled chopped pecans on top and a little more brown sugar for presentation. I tasted the mixture and it was awesome; a perfect blend of sweet, tart, and savory. I'm sure they will be a huge hit tonight!
Simply awesome! I took these to a dinner party and everyone raved as they devoured them. I added a couple shots of rum to the pears as they simmered in the butter and sugar. It made a scrumptious juice. I also topped the pears and bleu cheese filling with shredded Asiago, mozzarella and parmessan (which you can purchase prepackaged as Italian blend). The addition of these cheeses made the tart a little more finished looking and added another depth of flavor. Truly an impressive dish with so very little effort and cost! This is a keeper!
These are so easy to make yet so divine as an appetizer. I've made them 3 times and they always were a hit!
My guests loved these! I didn't have any leftovers. I think I'll make them for Christmas this year since they were such a big hit!
Absolutely delicious! Everyone loved the combination of flavors in these. I made as directed (half batch but got 18 tarts) except I added a generous splash of Eagle Rare single barrel bourbon as I added the sugar. Made a nice flavor to the carmelized sauce. I also cooked them a bit longer to get the cheese melted, but they are just perection and oh, so easy yet elegant! A keeper that will be made again for us!! **Made for Beverage Tag 2007**
These were very good. My guests really enjoyed them. I'll try adding a bit more sugar next time to create a sweeter contrast with the cheese. Maybe my pears just weren't as sweet. Regardless, everyone loved them. Thanks for posting.

I know : The new option "Image Title Attribute" is a good thing
But the old option "Title" in "Options avancées du lien" was very useful for lightbox plugins.
I know, i can write the "title" directly in the html of the post but it is more complicate.

Children's LiteraturePart of the "Living on the Edge" series, this sturdy picture book gives young readers a look at the "land near the sky" and the many animals who make their homes high on mountainous terrain worldwide. The text begins with a brief overview of what makes the mountaintop a challenging environment for wildlife and some of the many ways animals survive these harsh conditions. It then details the survival techniques of specific mammals, birds, fish and insects that thrive in the high mountain environment. The book's 10-inch by10-inch trim size allows its many full-color photos and maps to be reproduced in larger-than-average dimensions, letting the reader more easily see, and appreciate, the adaptations of fur, feather, fin, hoof and paw explained in the text. The text is set in a large, easy-to-read typestyle, making this a good choice for beginning readers. Also included are a glossary of science words, a listing of Web sites, a complete subject index and other resources for readers wanting to "Find Out More." A winner for both classroom and library shelves. 2003, Benchmark Books, Ages 8 to 11.

These spring flowering Iris bulbs are rarely seen in gardens despite their robust habit and reliability. Perfect for planting in rockeries and associates nicely with tulips and other low growing spring bulbs. Height: 40cm (16"). Spread: 15cm (6"). More info
Bellevalia Mixed
Giant Grape Hyacinth, MuscariThis unusual hardy bulb looks just like a Grape Hyacinth - but twice the size! Robust, upright stems carry fat cones of tiny bell shaped flowers throughout spring, above clumps of fresh green, strap like foliage. Bellevalia 'Mixed' makes an arresting sight planted at the front of cottage garden borders, dotted throughout rockeries or in spring patio containers. Giant Grape Hyacinths are low maintenance and make unusual cut flowers too. Height: 30cm (5"). Spread: 12cm (2"). Bulb size 6+. More info
Muscari armeniacum 'Saffier'
Grape hyacinthMore info
Leucocoryne 'Andes'For its size, this summer flowering bulb really makes an impression! Flowers are produced by the fistful on short airy stems, floating above a lush cushion of grassy foliage. If you think you're out of planting space but want to squeeze more flowers in, Leucocoryne 'Andes' is just perfect for you. The vivid flowers shine out at the front of a sunny border. Native to the mountains of Chile, this superb Leucocoryne looks at home in rock gardens and alpine collections and thrives in patio containers. Height: 40cm (16"). Spread 20cm (8"). Bulb size: 05/05 More info

PARIS (AP) -- Muslim leaders and politicians from all sides are
denouncing the firebombing that destroyed the offices of a French
satirical weekly (Charlie Hebdo) that "invited" the Prophet Muhammad as its guest editor.
But behind the public show of unity is a silent fear that the spoof could trigger a wave of violent protests among western Europe's largest Muslim population, and beyond.
No one was injured in the blaze that started around 1 a.m. Wednesday in eastern Paris, hours before the issue featuring a
caricature of Muhammad on its front page hit the newsstands. The
director of the weekly called the issue "a joke" and defiantly held up a copy of the paper as he stood amid the rubble. He vowed that next week's issue would be published.
Previous depictions of the prophet have caused major disturbances in Muslim countries. Islamic law generally opposes any depiction of the prophet, even favorable, for fear it could lead to idolatry.

J: Bernie had no chance from the start with the rigged Super Delegate system aided by the fact the DNC had their thumb on the scale in favor of Hillary. To add insult to injury, Hillary then chose a pro-life moderate Dem to run as her VP, which moves her farther to the right and away from left wing Bernie Supporters. There will likely be a large number of hard-core Bernie supporters abstaining for the 2016 election rather than vote for Hillary.

Data Can't Mask a Dour Labor Situation
The U.S. labor market is starting to calcify.
The jobs report out Friday—the "biggest monthly economic indicator in the world," as Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi economist Chris Rupkey puts it—may stave off recession fears for the moment.
But that shouldn't distract from the labor market's increasingly woeful state. It is one thing for gauges like the unemployment rate and length of joblessness to soar in the midst of a severe downturn, as happened in 2009. It is quite another for them to remain frozen at ultrahigh levels for years on out.
The Labor Department is expected to report that the U.S. economy added roughly 100,000 jobs in September, after flat-lining in August. A strike at Verizon Communications Inc. VZ -1.93 % that affected some 45,000 workers subtracted about that much from the headline jobs number in August, however, and will be added back in September. So underlying job growth is likely to be only about half as strong as Friday's headline number suggests. In turn, the unemployment rate is seen holding steady at 9.1%, which will be cold comfort for markets, politicians and the general public, all desperate for signs of improvement.
It isn't that we haven't previously seen sluggish job growth after recessions. The U.S. has added only about 25,000 jobs a month since the recession officially ended in June 2009, for a total of 639,000 through August.
The wake of the 2001 recession was worse: The economy actually shed 481,000 jobs during the same period, or an average decline of 18,500 a month. And yet the situation today is actually more dire. For one, no catalyst like the housing market appears ready to spur economic growth and hiring today as in 2004, when the economy began picking up after the last downturn. Second, the labor market is in worse shape. In January 2004, the unemployment rate was below 6%. The average length of unemployment is now over 40 weeks, compared with less than 20 weeks then. The employment-to-population ratio has, meanwhile, dropped to about 58% from over 62%.
Given this, the sluggish pace of job gains becomes more damaging with each passing month. If the U.S. continues to add only 50,000 jobs a month, the unemployment rate will rise to between 10.6% and 14% by the end of 2015, according to Standard Chartered, to say nothing of what another recession would do to worsen things.
A labor market this brittle doesn't take much to shatter.

OAMC Chicken Nuggets
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 15 mins
This recipe is for the chicken nuggets my mom used to make for me when I was little. They're much better than nuggets from fast food places or the grocery store. Don't let the hot sauce scare you away. The buttermilk cancels the heat and lets the pepper flavor stand out. This will make approximately 48 nuggets or 12 fingers.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
- 1⁄3 cup hot sauce
- 3⁄4 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1⁄4 cup cornstarch
- 1⁄4 cup cornflour
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground sage
- oil (for frying)
- In a gallon size zip lock bag combine buttermilk, hot sauce, and seasoning salt.
- Cut chicken breasts lengthwise into three strips. Cut strips into bite sized pieces for nuggets or cut strips in half for chicken fingers.
- Add the chicken to the buttermilk mixture and refrigerate for AT LEAST 4 hours. Overnight is best.
- In a large bowl combine flour, cornstarch, corn flour, paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and sage. Stir with a whisk until well combined.
- Remove chicken pieces from buttermilk and dredge in the flour mixture.
- Fry in 350-360 degree oil until light golden brown. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels while you fry the rest of the chicken.
- When you've fried it all put the drained pieces on a baking sheet and freeze. Put frozen chicken nuggets/fingers in bags and label. These will keep for 2 or 3 months in the freezer.
- To serve, preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until heated through and crispy. I like to serve mine with buffalo ranch dipping sauce. Combine 1/4 cup ranch dressing and 2 teaspoons of hot sauce in a small bowl or ramekin.
Most Helpful
These were very good. I should have read the description better though because while the buttermilk did cancel out the heat, the pepper FLAVOR was still there(just like it says). My Dd wouldn't eat them because she THOUGHT they were hot because of the flavor. Everyone else enjoyed them though.
WOW! I can't believe i am just now doing this! These are sooooo delicious! I love the fact that I can make these with organic chicken and feed my boys (4 and 2) something a bit healthier than the chicken fingers, sticks, or whatever that is sold in the freezer section which is made up of God knows what chicken parts :) Yes it's messy, but I made a huge batch so I won't have to do it for another month. Thanks so much for posting this!
Amazing! I intended to eat half for dinner and freeze the other half. They were so good that they ALL disappeared in a matter of minutes. I have six kids and this is one of the very rare meals that all of them loved.

I have a problem with the size of the sidebar/widget/default recent post-widget in twenty ten (not sure where the problem is exactly). I hope I can get some good ideas from more experienced wordpressers.
Aim: I want to display a list of 70 posts in the sidebar. I've been using the default recent post-widget. (Why I wan't such a long list? It is a book with 70 chapters.)
Problem: The widget only displays 15, after that the older chapters/posts starts disappearing. Don't know why. I have put "70" in the widget-settings (dashboard -> apprearance -> widget -> recent posts).

I am making a site using Piano Black 1.5 theme and I would like to have a custom menu on top of the page. I just instlled WordPress 3.0 and found out you can make a custom menu with pages AND categories. So, I would like to replace the current menu of Piano Black 1.5 theme (that allows only pages or categories) with this new menu.
I can make a custom menu and add it to the sidebar as a widget but I would like to use the code of that new menu to replace the default one. Where could I copy that code from and where do I need to paste it?

If we keep working on this". I just added a paragraph and corrected some spelling and syntax errors. I see real potential here. Hokeman 00:53, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Despite the praise of the NE in this article, the NE is for whatever reason still not considered by many in Wikipedia to be a reliable source of information. Either this article needs to be significantly modified in order to toe the party line, or some Wikipedians should read their own Wikipedia to learn more about sources before they prejudicially dismiss them. Turly-burly 06:53, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
I wholeheartedly agree with you Turly-burly. I would invite you to furthur elaborate about NE -- telling about its early history as a scandal sheet, and the large number of libel/defamation suits it has had. The authors who worked on it before weren't necessarily wrong, just incomplete. I would think you would agree, however, that Worthong and I have dramatically improved the article. Hokeman 23:27, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, wow, yes. I wasn't trying to sound critical of the article. I'm in favor of leaving it the way it is, which is fair without being iconoclastic (i.e. by sounding as if the NE were so reliable as to be the NYTimes). I've noticed that certain people here editing at wikipedia, though, don't seem to want to give the NE any kind of credit, and there's never any good reason other than "The NE isn't a reputable source because I know it isn't". I think this article is correct, and that people would do well to read it (and the article at Slate) to take a fresh look at the facts. Turly-burly 23:48, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
- This page does have potential, but it needs more citations. There are numerous statements to the fact that the NE has become an established, responsible paper, etc., but there is no appropiate citations for them. I think a way to not only strengthen this article but make more people actually believe that the NE can be a valid news source is if these claims are properly cited. -Kraw Night 19:54, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
xmas tree info[edit]
Why was the information removed concerning the christmas tree? This most recent edit looks like vandalism to me...will rv later if no justification is forthcoming. Turly-burly 15:29, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
- I reverted back to your prior edition. That was vandalism.--Hokeman 21:58, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
- Actually I believe that the editor made some substantial contributions to the text regarding current changes at the Enquirer, in addition to useful minor edits. The Christmas tree paragraph does interfere with the flow of the text, in that it is "off topic" from the preceding and subsequent paragraphs. While I wouldn't insist on leaving it out, I think it is incorrect to refer to those edits as vandalism. -Jmh123 23:32, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
- I reverted back to your prior edition. That was vandalism.--Hokeman 21:58, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
- The Christmas Tree was a huge deal in Palm Beach County in the 70's and 80's and it fits right in there between the movement of the paper to Lantana in 1971 and the death of founder Pope in 1988. If people are going to screw around and delete large sections of the encyclopedia then they ought to do it after making meaningful contributions. That way their meaningful, legitimate edits can be left in there. Unfortunately, this editor did not choose to do that and chose to delete the paragraph first. (There was other stuff besides the Christmas Tree in that paragraph.) If they want to go back and re-add the meaningful edits, be my guest. --Hokeman 23:49, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
- I do see your logic for placing the tree paragraph as you did. I was only suggesting that the editor did not intend to vandalize the page. Take care. -Jmh123 23:52, 5 April 2006 (UTC) ETA: I retained the new edits while preserving the tree paragraph. I hope it is acceptable to you. Thanks. -Jmh123 23:58, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
- I see your point also. I think those additions that were just added do improve the accuracy; the Enquirer did peak at over 6 million (not 4 million) in the 70s. I'm glad you see my point- about a month ago I went through the article and corrected syntax, grammar, punctuation, spelling - you name it; however, I really liked the content and was very careful not to delete anyones hard work.--Hokeman 00:30, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- The Christmas Tree was a huge deal in Palm Beach County in the 70's and 80's and it fits right in there between the movement of the paper to Lantana in 1971 and the death of founder Pope in 1988.

That way their meaningful, legitimate edits can be left in there. Unfortunately, this editor did not choose to do that and chose to delete the paragraph first.

The following article from CNN.com: [1] can be used to verify some of the earlier content about Pope. Just a note here to remind myself (or anyone else) of the link as I have no time right now to do this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmh123 (talk • contribs) 16:22, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Yellow Journalism[edit]
Why is this classified as a supermarket tabloid? It should be officially called yellow journalism. I can think of no better example... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.127.116.11 (talk) 02:39, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- Sadly, they release a thruthful story occasionally, so some stupid people will take them seriously. The fact that they present their news as real tells me that production of The National Enquirer should be shut down. The fact that they present misleading stories that people believe and insist that they told the truth makes them a danger to society. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 20:46, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
Catchphrase / motto / slogan[edit]
Isn't the Enquirer's motto « Because inquiring minds want to know »? (i don't read it, but i've heard it is famously so).
--Jerome Potts (talk) 03:23, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, this article is ludicrously incomplete without a reference to their slogan! I can't tell if it's "Inquiring" (correct spelling) or "Enquiring" and I didn't know "Because" was on the front. I'll try to add it but I'm sure it'll be taken out because I can't find citations. -- Skierpage (talk) 05:12, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
- I thought the slogan was spelled "Enquiring minds..." (matching the name of the newspaper) but I see that the article currently uses "Inquiring minds." Can someone find a definitive answer? The National Enquirer no longer uses this slogan, so searching its web site is no help. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 16:24, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- I didn't have to look any further than the earliest recorded NE page from 1997 at The Internet Archive (aka Wayback Machine). It is in fact spelled "Enquiring"; I'll amend the reference in the article accordingly. Steve Bob (talk) 13:47, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
"Alleged" no longer applies[edit]
- Since Edwards admitted to the affair, it is no longer an allegation.
- The appropriate word to describe the denial of the affair made by Edwards and his staff is "false". patsw (talk) 16:20, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
- Done. Some thought should be given to pruning away the suspicions of the Raleigh News-Observer that the story was fraudelent on the part NE. The are now moot. patsw (talk) 15:39, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
"Someone wanting the truth about an issue appends the slogan to their demand as a catch phrase.[24]" Is this even intelligible english? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.108.40.206 (talk) 23:17, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
Considering that the vast majority of American remember the National Enquirer as a tabloid with articles on giant space cows, bigfoot, UFOs, and other incredible and supernatural beings, this article is completely whitewashed. Angry bee (talk) 01:00, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Blocked in the UK/Europe[edit]
In The_National_Enquirer#Noted_stories_and_lawsuits the article states that access to the National Enquirer website is blocked in the UK, yet I can access it successfully (from the UK, through a UK-based ISP, no proxies, and an IP that geo-locates as being in the UK). Can other people confirm or deny whether it's blocked for them? Eddie Deguello (talk) 09:53, 13 March 2010 (UTC) I can't access the site from my UK IP LukeSurl t c 12:08, 13 March 2010 (UTC) My Irish IP is blocked. The claim seems to be accurate. ---Concernedresident's butler Not butter or putter 11:09, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
Accessing the website from the UK now returns 'The content of this website is not available in your area.', whatever UK-based IP I do it from. Article changed to reflect this. Eddie Deguello (talk) 14:07, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
I can't access the site from my German IP. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 09:48, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
Same here, cannot acces from germany. I also testes from Lisba/Portugal which did not work either. This large scale blocking should be mentioned in the artice.
The main National Enquirer link now apparently redirects to National Enquirer UK for visitors from the UK. Can anybody else verify this? What happens for visitors from other previously-blocked countries?Eddie Deguello (talk) 08:31, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
Three reverts by User:Sososos321 2010-05-02[edit]
On User:Sososos321's talkpage, I explained to him that the present reverts are contra WP:BLP but he has chosen to make three reverts which make him subject to the 3RR rule. --Morenooso (talk) 02:54, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- Actually you are the one who is violating 3RR as you already undid another person's edit which I merely reintroduced. Sososos321 (talk) 02:56, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- Negative, I am a Page Patroller. You really need to read WP:BLP. It does allow poorly sourced edits like this. If another experienced editor had disagreed with my reasoning, I would have been reverted. --Morenooso (talk) 02:58, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- It comes straight off the Enquirer's main page. That's as good as a source is going to get.Sososos321 (talk) 03:05, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Title of article[edit]
Why is this article titled "The National Enquirer" when the headline clearly reads "National Enquirer"? --Tenebrae (talk) 19:39, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- There's no "The". The title of the article should be changed. Pepso2 (talk) 19:52, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
Requested move[edit]
- The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the proposal was move per request. Appears in keeping with WP:THE. I note that the magazine itself sometimes has the the on its cover and sometimes it does not, e.g., 1 verses 2.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 01:24, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
The National Enquirer → National Enquirer — Neither the paper's logo, nor its website, have a "The" as part of the moniker. --Cybercobra (talk) 04:02, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

to find a reporter[edit]
Hello I,m not sure if I,m even in the right area of your magazine. However perhaps you could see that it gets to a reporter for me. I have proof and information that a professional sports person who is a cousin to two players of a famous base ball team has been the head of a operation for the past three years which now is letting one of his employees go to prison for along time because he wont pay the fine. If interested in this story please let me know. L — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:304:B36E:A589:25A9:E42E:E071:457D (talk) 23:14, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
