It may not be the NFL experience Southern Californians used to know, but at least the L.A. KISS gives football-starved fans a pro team to cheer for after two decades without an NFL team.
The KISS isn't just your run-of-the-mill expansion franchise, either. The so-called KISS "experience" is what happens when football meets rock 'n' roll in a head-on collision.
On Saturday night, the SaberCats get their first look at the KISS "experience" when they play in Anaheim.
"I've heard they are trying to do some unique things there," SaberCats veteran quarterback Russ Michna said. "But the thing about the AFL, it's a different experience. It's a different environment every place. This is just going to be another new experience for us."
If the KISS' home opener was any gauge, the SaberCats are in for an eye-opening experience. It featured fireworks and a laser show, the national anthem played on an electric guitar, bikini-wearing women dancing throughout the game.
For good measure, Motorhead lead singer Lemmy Kilmister handled the pregame coin toss, while standing on a silver-colored playing surface.
During breaks in the action, fans were treated to things such as stunt-performing bikers and, naturally, the KISS Girls.
Team co-owners Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley are best known for heavy makeup, wagging tongues and rock anthems such as "Rock & Roll All Nite." So, what drew them to the indoor brand of football?
"They were drawn to the mix of fun and adrenaline, something the band is quite familiar with," said Schuyler Hoversten, the KISS president. "They saw the AFL as pro sports with a little bit more and felt it was something they could help shape and put a spotlight on, be it literal or figurative."
Simmons and Stanley aren't about to ease into their new venture. It's about getting noticed and shock value. Create enough of a buzz so that people are interested enough to buy a ticket and see for themselves.
"We are the black sheep of rock 'n' roll," Stanley told the Orange County Register earlier this month. "And we're going to be the black sheep of arena football."
In other words, Simmons and Stanley intend to do things their way, be in your face and over the top. Critics, be damned.
So far, fans seem to be buying it. The average attendance for AFL games is just shy of 8,000. The KISS drew 12,045 to its first home game.
Not everyone is a huge fan of the nonstop assault on the senses so prevalent at KISS games. KISS wide receiver Donovan Morgan called the home-opening spectacle a "distraction."
"The guys did enjoy it but, for me, I'm a football player," Morgan told Fox Sports after the home-opener. "I come here to play football. I don't want to say it was a little bit too much, but it was a little bit too much."
Michna has seen his share of antics at AFL games. He said he doesn't have a problem staying focused during games.
"Sometimes during timeouts, I'll look around a little bit and see what's going on," he said. "Other than that, I don't expect it to be much of a distraction."
The KISS lost its second home game but scored big with fans once again, as 10,570 showed up for a game against the Cleveland Gladiators.
It didn't hurt that fans who purchased season tickets received tickets to a KISS concert. So, it's too early and too difficult to gauge whether the KISS is going to be like its namesake, carve out a niche and stick around for decades.
Or if it'll go the way of the Los Angeles Express, which came in 1983 and went in 1985 as part of the now-defunct United States Football League.
"We are about giving our fans something more and not about creating something that ends up fizzling out," Hoversten said. "We are going to stay true to this principle. So, when fans come to our games, they're going to get an overall sports experience, wrapped in an entertainment experience that's second-to-none."

Our Last 38 Games..
Thought some might find this pretty interesting, though it means little until May, but for tour departed Debbie downers and naysayers, it would show that we are progressing steadily, and actually faster than some of us realize. Again, the points and table really mean little right now, but like Brendan says, these are 16 points we didn't have at this point last year, as we were sitting in the bottom half with a negative g/d. Now, we're joint top with a healthy +/-, and probably could have/should have more points, if we'd done a few little things..
In our last 38 matches, including this year's 7 fixtures, we have
71 points..
20-11-7, Wins, Draws, Losses
+26 goal differential
These are the type of figures that typically get you 4th spot, and in recent years, perhaps even this year, would be more than enough to even challenge top 3, when looking at how tight it is, and all the competition for those coveted Champions League spots.
Things can only get better, as we've faced some difficult injuries to key players, gotten adapted to 1 system, then started to employ another, while now adapting to a third. Rodgers still has a lot to accomplish, a lot to impress upon this squad, and they have a lot of room to improve, but all things considered, for the first time in many a year, we should feel good (not resting on laurels) that we're not half bad.. It's a glass 3/4 full to me.. a glass of cold beer that is..Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
A little challenge for you. It would be more interesting to see how that stacks up against everyone else in the league. It's all well and good showing the form we have but it means nothing without anything to compare it to.
To make it easier there's more than a few sides you can ignore. relegated and promoted sides for example.
- 1 Reply to Colyn
Arsenal: 23-8-7 - 77 points
Chelsea: 19-10-9 - 67 points
Man City: 20-7-11 - 67 points
Manure: 25-6-7 - 81 points
Spuds: 21-8-9 - 71 points
So, without doing goal differential, which I didn't have the energy for, (though I know we had more than Spuds), here is the top 4 over the past 38:
United - 81 points
Arsenal - 77 points
Liverpool - 71 points
Spurs - 71 points

Gynecomastia is an enlargement of the breasts in men. This condition is not the same as having a fatty breast area from obesity. The breast tissue is firm in men with gynecomastia.
This may occur in up to one-third of men. About 65% of boys will develop some degree of breast enlargement during puberty. This is normal and usually goes away by age 18.
All men produce male and female hormones. Normally, men produce much more male hormones than female hormones. Gynecomastia is caused by an imbalance in the female and male hormones. The hormone imbalance can be caused by:
Gynecomastia is more common in adolescents or in men over age 50. Other factors that increase your chance of gynecomastia include:
Symptoms of gynecomastia include:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Your doctor will focus on your weight, breast exam, testicular exam, and any other signs of a hormone problem. You may be referred to a doctor who specializes in hormone disorders.
Other tests may be done if you have prolonged or large gynecomastia.
Your bodily fluids and tissues may be tested. This can be done with:
Images may be taken of your chest. This can be done with:
Treatment for gynecomastia is rarely needed. However, it is important to find and treat the underlying cause of the gynecomastia. If a medication is causing gynecomastia, your doctor will ask you to stop taking it or to switch medication. If a tumor is causing the problem, your doctor will make a treatment plan for the tumor.
Medications may be used if needed to treat the gynecomastia. However, they can produce unwanted side effects. Surgery may also be used to remove breast tissue.

Powerball jackpot builds to $325M for Saturday
Published: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 3:31 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 3:31 p.m.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Chicago resident Clyde Gadlin says Saturday's $325 million Powerball drawing gives him a chance to dream.
The 65-year-old stopped Friday at a 7-Eleven on shopper-swarmed Michigan Avenue to buy his daily batch of lottery tickets, including Powerball.
The jackpot is the fourth-largest in the game's history. A single winner's cash payout would be nearly $213 million before taxes.
Powerball jackpots have increased more rapidly since the price doubled to $2 in January.
Gadlin says if he wins, he'd move back to his grandfather's farm in Mississippi where he spent part of his childhood. He hasn't been there for more than 20 years.
Powerball organizers say this is the first run-up to a large jackpot that's fallen over a major holiday. They're unsure whether it will help or hinder sales.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Uber on Tuesday tapped David Plouffe, former campaign manager and White House adviser to President Barack Obama, to wage a multifront fight against regulators and the taxi industry, becoming the latest Silicon Valley company to hire a Washington insider to woo policymakers and bolster its political firepower.
Uber co-founder and CEO Travis Kalanick said Plouffe would make "sure that our story is told, and that the right outcome happens" to prevail against regulators and insurance and taxi companies that have staged fierce opposition to smartphone apps like the one his company offers that let users hire a car for a ride.
"There are a number of places that we aren't in because of the regulations that exist today," Kalanick said. "And we have tens of thousands of consumers, and sometimes hundreds of thousands of consumers, who are clamoring for a way to get around that city. "
Uber is part of a trend: Increasingly, startups and tech giants have found themselves in a maelstrom of lobbyists and politics, according to tech experts, as they tangle with business regulations.
"There is a practical acknowledgment in Silicon Valley that, much to our chagrin, Washington plays a larger and larger role in our lives," said Bob Ackerman, founder and director of Palo Alto venture firm Allegis Capital. "And like it or not, you have to engage."
Apple's Tim Cook last year tapped former Environmental Protection Agency chief Lisa Jackson to lead the company's environmental initiatives. Google in 2012 hired Susan Molinari, a former Republican member of Congress from New York, to be its head lobbyist. And recently San Francisco cloud software company Dropbox appointed former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to its board of directors to aid the company's global expansion.
Plouffe, 47, will join Uber in San Francisco at the end of September as senior vice president of policy and strategy, and will run Uber's campaign in its self-described political race against taxis and regulators. The company did not disclose his salary.
Plouffe on Tuesday said his role at Uber "will be very familiar" after his work running Obama's 2008 campaign. "But with any new challenge, there are distinctions and a learning curve," he added.
Ackerman said Plouffe's hire is "an astute move on the part of Uber. They are up against an entrenched, well-organized adversary in the taxi industry that has developed and maintained tremendous political sway."
After the Public Utilities Commission last year rolled out new regulations to legalize on-demand car service apps, Uber and its supporters had hoped most of the country would follow California's lead. Instead, the company has continued to face resistance in new markets, and some experts say only a seasoned political strategist -- not software engineers -- can sway regulators from Dallas to Philadelphia, Spain and Germany.
Uber, founded in 2009, is one is of the few young companies to put a top Washington official on its payroll -- and it can afford to do so thanks to stratospheric venture capital funding, including the largest-ever VC investment of $1.2 billion this year, which pushed the company's valuation to at least $18.2 billion. Like Google and other tech giants, Uber has also hired powerful lobbyists in Washington to drive its expansion, and in May tapped Ashwini Chhabra, a former top official at the Taxi and Limousine Commission in New York, as its first leader of policy development and community engagement. The car service is now in 170 cities and 43 countries.
"It's hard to deny progress," Plouffe said. "It's hard to stand in the way of change."
Plouffe said he will commute to San Francisco initially but has plans to move to the West Coast with his wife, Olivia Morgan, and their two children in summer 2015. He will also end his roles as contributor to Bloomberg TV and ABC News.

Roger rushes into round 2
Roger started his 50th straight major by defeating Germany's Tomas Kamke (ATP 78) 6-2, 7-5, 6-3 at the French Open today - equalling Jimmy Connors' record of 233 Grand Slam match victories!
"I get a great deal of pleasure playing here. When I play well, the numbers come with me. It's great to have played and won here so often. I hope it continues," Roger said.
Roger scored three out of four break points in the opening set and continued well, securing the important points. He was always in charge, but nevertheless accumuluated over 40 unforced errors and missed several rather certain opportunities. He never got into danger, though, and wrapped up the match after 117 minutes on a sixth match point.
Roger will next face Adrian Ungur (ATP 92) of Romania who eliminated David Nalbandian in four sets.
Fans of tennis world are waiting to watch you lifting trophy of RG, and it's your job to fulfil their will.
Long live King !!!!
keep going
With you always.
hope you win this championship
Love you
Good luck for all the next ones.
Blessings from above, always.
Love you so much !!!!

Dave Grohl kicked off the Sound City Players' showcase on Thursday at South by Southwest by telling fans exactly what to expect from the evening.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's going to be a long (expletive) night," said the rock star best known for leading the Foo Fighters and, before that, drumming for Nirvana. "Buckle up!"
With that, the capacity crowd at Stubb's immediately got a lengthy opening set led by (wait for it) Alain Johannes.
No knock on this guitarist, who worked alongside Grohl in Them Crooked Vultures, but it certainly wasn't the start that we were looking for from what promised to be an all-star show.
Fortunately, things would grow more impressive from there, as Grohl played band leader and emcee during this celebration of his "Sound City" film.
The movie, which screened on Wednesday at SXSW and has already had its theatrical run in many parts of the country, is a documentary about Los Angeles' legendary Sound City recording studios. That's the place that gave birth to such great artistic and commercial triumphs as Nirvana's "Nevermind," Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours," Neil Young's "After the Gold Rush," Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' "Damn the Torpedoes" and "Rage Against the Machine."
Grohl's Sound City Players are a revue of this recording studio's alum, including both big names (John Fogerty, Stevie Nicks and, of course, Grohl and his fellow Foo Fighters), lesser-known talents (Johannes, Fear's Lee Ving and Slipknot's Corey Taylor, sans mask) and one retro favorite (Rick Springfield!).
Many of the key players took turns fronting the band, performing generous — in some cases, too generous — sets of songs. Grohl and other musicians (notably, his Foos) backed up the singers.
There was plenty of filler, but also some killer (moments). A number of them came early in the night when Nicks -- whose documentary film, "In Your Dreams: Stevie Nicks," was screened at SXSW earlier in the day -- was onstage.
Nicks' voice wasn't great, but most of the songs sure were. The band delivered fantastic versions of such Fleetwood Mac classics as "Dreams," "Gold Dust Woman" and, especially, "Landslide," which featured pretty much everyone in the house singing harmony.

The man who allegedly fired a small-caliber handgun at a home on the 6000 block of Truax Road in Central Point Tuesday has turned himself in to the Jackson County Sheriff's Department.
According to a press release, Andrew Caucutt, 24, of Central Point turned himself in today. He was lodged in the Jackson County Jail on an attempted second-degree assault charge and is being held without bail.
A witness to the reported shooting told investigators that Caucutt, riding in the passenger seat of a red, 1993 BMW 3 series car, pulled out a gun and fired it at the home, then the car raced away.
The car, with Oregon license plate 385 BSD and chrome rims, has not yet been located.
The case is still under investigation. Anyone with information about this case or the car is asked to call the sheriff's department at 541-774-6800.

Taylor County residents could see a change in which magistrate represents them next month.
Those in charge of reapportioning magisterial districts based on 2010 Census data say there will likely be some changes in the boundaries.
Magistrates discussed the reapportionment during last Tuesday's regular meeting of the Taylor Fiscal Court.
At the meeting, Taylor County Judge/Executive Eddie Rogers told magistrates that the Lake Cumberland Area Development District can help the local committee with the work at a cost of $800.

We had to smile when these three all coincidentally wore roll neck sweaters to the office on Friday! Michael Salamanca, Senior Marketing Manager for Hart Schaffner Marx; Mike Cohen, President of Hickey Freeman; and Brett Schenck, President of Hart Schaffner Marx show that the roll neck sweater has made a resurgence this season, but each put a personal touch to the look. We'll explain how you can master each look as well.
This once older and gentlemanly look made it back onto the menswear runways of Milan and Paris last January and has popped up onto GQ magazine's style blog. Designers like Salvatore Ferragamo, Neil Barrett and Roberto Cavalli all gave their own point of view of how to wear the sweater of the season.
You could wear your chunky roll neck sweater like Mr. Salamanca and rock it with a great pair of levis jeans. Throw on a cool double monk strap shoe in a dark leather or suede and you've taken this easy look to the next level. A gold watch adds a finishing touch to a brown or rust colored sweater.
Mr. Schenck's look is casual with a light pair of jeans and cool sneakers. Currently, Brett is favoring the Adidas Campers in midnight blue. Add a large and masculine sports watch to keep the look grounded in sportswear. This will make a great casual Friday office look that keeps you on trend but not looking overdone.
To get Mr. Cohen's look, you need to understand the art of layering. This look is a bit more formal than the other two, but it still is somewhat relaxed. Keeping the colors in warm spicy tones will keep you in winter mode. Cohen is wearing a brown cashmere sweater with an olive herringbone sportcoat and grey wool trousers. Pair with a great pair of rugged boots (Mike Cohen is wearing Wolverine 1000 Mile boots) in a dark leather and it will keep your outfit from looking to stuffy and overdressed.
Our Full Button Mock Neck Sweater, $145, is a versatile interpretation of the roll neck sweater trend, with toggle closures and a suede placket.

Spring Stampede will be holding open tryouts
Saturday August 20 & Sunday August 21 at Bayer Park
Saturday 11am - 2pm & Sunday 3pm - 6pm.
The Spring Stampede '01 from Spring, Texas (very near the Woodlands, Humble, Conroe, Tomball and North Houston) is justed finished up their first season together (In June, 2011, the team qualified for ASA Nationals in TN, by placing second in the Houston ASA Championship Tournament). The team will be holding tryouts and selecting players to help a strong team become stronger. Selections will be announced no later than 8/23/11.
More Info:
The team has its home / practice fields in Bayer Park, and is associated with the Spring Area Youth Softball (SAYS) organization (24811 W. Hardy Rd / just south of Cypresswood).
The team Manager / Head Coach is Gino Briones who managed the 2009 GHYSA 8U Metro-Rec Champions - Lady Pirates and the 2010 GHYSA 8U Metro-Rec Champions - Barracudas. Coach Gino also managed the very successful 2010 SAYS 8U All-Stars who went 30-5 for the summer of 2010, and placing first or second place in all tournaments entered (4 Championships & 3 Runner-ups). But, wins are not the ultimate goal. Coach Gino ensures that each player has the tools to succeed, at the same time makes certain that the players learn to love the game and enjoy it. Coach Gino provides a very positive atmosphere for the players. The wins will be the product of this approach.
First year select: Being a true first year team (only 1 '00 player), the team is enjoying some success not usually seen. The team is currently playing 10+ games over .500. The team as added four championships to its credentials: Wild Bunch's Houston Food Bank Drive Tournament; TPS '00 'Mother May I' tournament; Humble Cobras Texas All-Stars Tournament and Sudden Impact Wants You - 4th of July Tournament. The team also was the runner-up in Metro Houston ASA's Championship Tournament.
The team is based around 2001 players, but some exceptional 2002 players will be considered. We are not only looking for great players, but also dedicated and positive parents.
Short Term Goals: Reinforce the fundamentals of the game. Participate in tournaments beginning in late-2011 and finish up by participating in a prestigious national tournament in the summer of 2012, such as; USFA's World Series, in Panama City, the Disneyworld Fastpitch Classic or ASA Nationals.
Medium Term Goals: Continue play through 12U and above. Build a legacy organization that will provide select ball play for several age groups (currently 10U & 14U are active in the Spring Stampede organization, 12U '00 and '99 will begin in August, 2011 as well).
Long Term Goals: To prepare and to provide all the tools for each player to succeed in at the High School and Collegiate Levels of play, but also in life, whether it be in school, the workplace or at home.
If you would like to be part of this organization, please, contact Coach Gino at firstname.lastname@example.com or at 281-733-1019.
We look to have open tryouts in mid- to late August. We have many strong returning players, and we are looking to have an absolutely strong second year!!! Let us know if you have any interest.
We'll be playing in in Spring at the end of July. Please, contact us if you'd like to come out and see us.
If you are looking for a private or semi-private tryout, please, contact us.
Times posted! Call if you have any questions...

In the garden surrounding the museum building there is the usual collection of archaeological bric-a-brac, some would shine in a museum in a country with less finds (from, in particular, Roman times), but most are damaged. They are, it seems, from Roman, Karamanoğlu or Ottoman times.

It is now official.FSM is dead. Send no flowers. It is time for us to pack up our keyboards, reassign our internet links to catty cable TV, give up bags and to spend our time doing something constructive like playing MS Windows Mines or Solitaire. Time for us to reformat out computers with GNU/Linux on them and pay for a operating system where we need not spend all those hours worrying about source code. Ah well, it was fun while it lasted....
It must all be true. Bill Hilf of Microsoft said it. Slashdot reported on it too! Confirmation indeed if confirmation was needed.
Mind you, the FSM was not about the "Free Software Magazine" in specific, but the entire "Free Software Movement". Hilf's main basis for making such a statement was that Linus Torvalds was employed and companies were involved in the distribution of GNU/Linux. I confess, not being the smartest guy in the world such logic I find hard to follow. Maybe I should go to a Microsoft course to have them explain it to me.
Bill Hilf made the statement to the Bangkok Post no less. I am sure Bill doesn't want to let the fact that the messenger published his announcement on a GNU/Linux server running PHP, so I will not let it. I have to bow down to the superior intelligence. The "Free Software Movement" is dead, therefore the "Free Software Magazine" will have nothing to report on.
However, all is not lost, there is one FSM still very much alive! I am back in business! Noodly appendages here I come!
You had us going there for a second. And we were wondering how we managed to be the last ones to know.
Hilf's eyes too close together
It's true. Go and check out his mug-shot at Edward's first link above.
Would you trust this man to tell you the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?
It's the same with that weird dung-eating grin that Gates gets all over his kisser.
As they used to say about Tricky Dicky, "Would you buy a used car off this man?"
spelling error?
Is it Hiff, Hill, or Hilf? The Bangkok Post called him Hilf.
Microsoft says Hilf
I did a Google search and found quite a few references to Bill Hiff of Microsoft. But Microsoft's site says Hilf and they have a picture of him (it's the same guy as in the Bangkok Post), so let's go with that. Looks like a common mistake though.
My word, for a minute there I thought you were going to change your name to "Buy a License to Read Our Magazine" Magazine. Keep up the good work.
Long Live FSM!
some "clarifications"
Hilf truly is a FUD master, he's even got one on patents.
So laughs in the comments on that post too.
It is Real World
And it is real war. I almost sure that M$ (MegaDollar) will win this war. It is matter of time and of course...money. They will sues everybody and everything and nothing gonna stop them. Patents, patents and patents again. Nobody can get so many patents as M$ can. So, in some time I will have to throw my lovely Mandriva away...But I promise I will never buy (and support) M$. The only way I see is FreeBSD and the hope is still my breast...
Sorrowfully Yours
A bit of concern
Although I don't think the Free Software Movement will be dead anytime soon, I do belive this Hilf guy might be right on the whole desktop issue. Most applications are already running this way and more people are turning to the web to do things they use to do on their desktops. Now the thing is can the open source community keep up when most vendors refuse to support it. Also pointing to something he said in the article about developers working for big commercial firms. Regardless of how free we want this movement to be people need to pay their bills and live and although you can make money from open source, you can't keep it for yourself which is the problem people by default are greedy,selfish and there is nothing the open source community can do to change that. Those two things is the main reason why this Hilf guy makes comments like that and he's right. I'm a developer who works with Adobe products and open source products yet I find myself talking about windows and how to make sure the software is compatible with it, because unfortunately I need to pay my bills too. So my question to the Open Source community is; How can we as a community make it better for developers to make a profit from an Open Source project other than charging for tech support? Also remember this, why pay for tech support when you can get it from a forum or a chat room.

no concern
Companies want guarantees and support contracts, so they buy GNU/Linux off Redhat, Novel and Canonical. End users who want support buy off Linspire or Novel etc. People who want support for open office buy star office off Sun. This generates money for big software houses to develop software.
But many businesses leverage free and open source software sometimes but don't buy it. For example, Apache is the most popular web server in use, but nobody buys Apache. But the money Apache generates comes from the thousands and thousands of sysadmins who are employed to administer it. As a community they all contribute to each other for free, and get gainful employment because they are then able to sell their skills to companies. Other companies like the many hosting companies also make money from free and open source technologies (the LAMP stack and things like it) and pay for development.
None of the above money making removes the GPL (or whatever licence is used) from applying to the code that is written.
Hilf was engaging in absolute FUD when he tried to confuse people as to Linux being "dead", he has tried to backtrack. But this anti-Linux FUD is targeted at managers who don't know anything about free and open source (because more often than not they never did technical degrees) and they will then be hostile to this "linux thing" when it is proposed to be adopted in the workplace.
Hilf though it would slip by, but he was caught out. And his clarification on his website is extremely weak. I wonder what his kids will think when they read back at some point to find out who their dad was... This is a combination of a guy who is paid to spread disinformation and an incredibly uncritical journalist.
When you say "can the open source community keep up when most vendors refuse to support it" that's patently not the case. Free and open source software makes money in business through support, but support is much much bigger and makes it's face know in many more ways in a plethora of companies. The fact that people are involved making money doesn't make the software any less free or open source, nor does it somehow implode the community aspects.
You have a point!
Yes I'd I have to say I agree with your response, but what I meant by vendors refusing to support it. I meant it in terms of hardware and software, meaning why can't I use my Plextor Px=716UF on Ubuntu 7.04 because there are no drivers, the company (plextor) does not have any linux drivers. This is just one example also why can't I play any games on Ubuntu just like I would on Windows. That is my point, that is the reason why most people are affraid to make the jump. Another example; I told my boss about Ubuntu (desktop/server) so that we can switch from our windows setup (server 200/Xp pro desktops) and I was sent packing. So after I gave him tons of articles documentation etc, next day he went and bought MS Office 2007 after I clearly showed him OpenOffice. So that right there is what I'm talking about unless vendors decide to make the software that is available for windows compatible with Linux. We won't stand a chance and yes by boss is the average user.
IT Consultant/Web Developer
free software - open source
This is why I think free software as a philosophy is not given enough credit, as they did a lot of work before everything was operational and were working on things before there was an office package and games etc.
The games issue is a difficult one, as MS has locked up much of the market with directx stuff. One of my greatest pains moving to linux was leaving counter-strike behind. Nevertheless, there are lots of cool things out there, enemy territory, true combat: elite, savage: the battle for newerth and all the ID software stuff. Plus there will come a time when WINE can do all the 1995-2006 games better than XP and certainly Vista.
The Dell-Ubuntu deal should be the beginning of the end for hardware issues, almost everything is supported these days.
Anyway if it suits you, use it - it suits me.

Gardens ... in Gilroy?
For a bit more than a decade, Gilroy Gardens has been nestled against the scenic hills south of San Jose and west of Interstate 101. It's part amusement park (refreshingly sans brink-of-death roller coasters, killer whale shows, nearby high-rise hotels and dancing cartoon characters -- though a garlic clove mascot would have been acceptable under the circumstances). It's also part gorgeous botanical gardens with some of the most spectacular trees in Northern California.
I realize that's a pretty high bar. Go Google "circus trees." I'll be here when you get back ... or you can just read on.
The best thing about Gilroy Gardens is how it sneaks up on you. Honestly, I was expecting a cross between something one might see on "Parks and Recreation" and a 1970s version of Fairyland. I wasn't prepared for an uber-charming, well-laid-out place where every inch is beautifully landscaped. There are no lines on a summer Saturday for roller coasters (modest ones -- don't expect Six Flags), a couple of water parks, a lake with paddle boats patterned after giant water fowl, a huge monarch butterfly enclosure that is traversed by a train and a tram, a giant banana boat ride (think of the pirate ship on the Santa Cruz boardwalk but bright yellow) and a tea cup-style ride where the cups look like huge gloves of garlic. I mean, it is Gilroy.
And there's water everywhere -- big waterfalls, little waterfalls, babbling brooks and a lake. It's the billionaire's dream backyard. In fact, every time we stumbled onto something new, my 12-year-old exclaimed (at least 20 times) we have to have one of those in our backyard.
We're going to need a bigger backyard.
Don't get me wrong -- this isn't exactly a tree-hugger's NorCal Disneyland with a smaller carbon footprint. The price is fairly steep ($50 for adults, $40 for kids, although there are lots of online discounts available, including on the park's website). There are plenty of food choices, but the one we made -- San Juan Grill -- was a half-step behind mainstream fast-food burgers and fries. (In their defense, when they mistakenly forgot one of our items, they replaced it for free without argument. The service was great all the way around, and the chicken was much better than the burgers.)
And then there are the trees, which are almost worth the price of admission alone. Almost. ...
Gilroy Gardens was inspired by Nob Hill Foods owner Michael Bonfante's realization in the early 1970s that being around trees was a wonderful tonic to the stress of big business. He bought the land, began to shape it into a park and eventually bought 31 circus trees, created by farmer Axel Erlandson, whose hobby was growing fantastically shaped trees in Scotts Valley. Erlandson died in 1964 and his trees remained largely unattended until Bonfante bought them two decades later and moved them into his park. The fantastically shaped trees anchor various gardens in the park.
In a nod to Bonfante's love of nature, there are educational displays throughout the park. For example, while waiting in a small, well-shaded (most lines have lots of shade) line for the mushroom swings, one can read all about mushrooms. There are also "learning sheds" that shed light on the trees, water and some of the creatures that live in them.
Gilroy Gardens' newest attraction proved a big draw for the kids on a day when temperatures soared well into the 90s (and possibly the reason why the roller coaster lines were so short). The new Water Oasis is a huge hit, with mini-water slides, pools with water cannons and most of the features one would expect from a first-rate water park that doesn't involve four-story-high water slides. It's not the park's only water feature either -- a smaller scale version called Bonfante's Splash Garden kept my kids busy before they even knew there was a bigger water park a couple hundred yards away.
One of Gilroy Gardens' real charms is that the surrounding area doesn't have the typical tourist-targeted collateral obnoxiousness. Instead, vineyards and farms dot the nearby landscape. The lack of giant hotels may hinder the park's draw as a tourist destination. Then again, the park is small enough to more than cover in a day -- perhaps on the way to Santa Cruz or Monterey.
You can talk about garlic festivals until you're blue in the face. But Gilroy Gardens is the jewel of Gilroy.

Gilroy Gardens, 3050 Hecker Pass (Highway 152), Gilroy. 408-840-7100, www.gilroygardens.org. Open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. (Only open on weekends after Aug. 17.) General admission $49.99; $29.99 to 39.99 for children and seniors; $84.99 for premium membership. Discount tickets are available on its website. Parking is $12.
Parents need to know: Kids might want to wear swimsuits under their clothes, as there are interactive water areas throughout the park. No outside food or drink is allowed. Although there are some rides that will appeal to older kids, roller coaster freaks may be disappointed by how many of the rides are geared toward smaller kids. But there's still plenty of fun to be had by all ages.
Nearby eats: The park has a number of places to eat, including barbecue, Mexican food and pizza. There aren't a lot of restaurants in the nearby vicinity outside the park. The park's San Juan Grill offers burgers (not great) and chicken (pretty good) along with other standard American fare.

The big theme of this year's Sundance Film Festival was sex: racy movies dominated early deal-making and parties held at pop-up strip clubs (yes, that is a thing) were all the rage.
This year's Sundance also heralded a possible return to the days when deal making was brisk and upfront prices high. Fox Searchlight paid $10.5 million on Tuesday for the U.S. and other major markets' distribution rights to "The Way, Way Back," a price not hit since 2006, when Searchlight spent around that amount for "Little Miss Sunshine." Relativity Media also raised some eyebrows with its acquisition of the U.S. distribution rights to "Don Jon's Addiction," the directorial debut of actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who stars as an Internet porn-obsessed young man whose fitness habits bore a striking resemblance to the "Jersey Shore" reality-show character Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino. Relativity spent $4 million plus a large marketing commitment to support a wide release later this year, in the hopes that it can become a mainstream success.
The Weinstein Co., known for making big bets on Sundance films, spent around $2 million for "Fruitvale," from first-time director Ryan Coogler, 26 and featuring a breakout performance from Michael B. Jordan ("Chronicle"). The movie is based on the story of Oscar Grant, a young black man who was gunned down by the police on January 1, 2009 at an Oakland train station.
"This is a very serious picture that can hit a broad audience," says Weinstein chief operating officer David Glasser. The company plans to emphasize the young director, as well as the performances of Mr. Jordan and Octavia Spencer—she plays Oscar's mother—in marketing the film. The movie drew comparisons to 1991's "Boyz N the Hood," which grossed nearly $60 million domestically, but Mr. Glasser said that he doesn't want to "pigeonhole" the movie. "Harvey and I feel that it's much broader than putting it in some box," he says.
Setting the tone, the first feature film to sell at the festival was "The Look of Love" about British porn kingpin Paul Raymond. Like "Lovelace" (about "Deep Throat" star Linda Lovelace) and "Concussion" (about a lesbian housewife-turned-prostitute)—both of which sold to multiplatform distributor RADiUS-TWC —"The Look of Love" was picked up by IFC Films with plans for a theatrical and VOD release. Jonathan Sehring, president of IFC/Sundance Selects, praised director Michael Winterbottom's style and said that he thinks audiences will be interested in seeing "a different side" to the actor Steve Coogan, who starred in Mr. Winterbottom's 2011 comedy, "The Trip," also released in the U.S. by IFC.
The cause of the proliferation of smut-themed material—and its popularity among deal makers—baffled Josh Braun, president of sales agent Submarine Entertainment. "Perhaps all the distribution execs are sexually frustrated," he says.
And in a year when four out of five best-documentary Oscar nominees premiered at Sundance 2012—and the fifth, "The Gatekeepers" screened at the festival this year—documentaries were a particularly robust category. RADiUS-TWC bought two well-reviewed documentaries, "Twenty Feet From Stardom," about backup singers and "Inequality for All," featuring the former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich inveighing against income disparities in America. IFC bought "The Summit," about an ill-fated K2 expedition, and "Dirty Wars," about covert warfare. HBO, which had eight documentaries in the festival, left with one more: "Pussy Riot: A Punk Prayer," about the unjustly imprisoned members of the Russian punk collective.
"We weren't looking to buy anything, but this had our name on it," said Sheila Nevins, president of HBO documentary films. HBO also wound up bidding on "Blackfish," a documentary about killer whales in captivity, but the film wound up going to Magnolia Pictures and CNN Films for a "low seven figure" sum, according to a person familiar with the deal.
The "Pussy Riot" documentary chronicles the trial of Nadia Tolokonnikova, Masha Alyokhina and Katia Samutsevich, who were arrested after performing in an Orthodox cathedral in Moscow. In the film, one devout man who resembled a Dostoyevskian interpretation of a Hell's Angel, remarked that the group's name translates to "deranged vaginas," a description that generated a rare bout of suppressed laughter amid the grim proceedings. Ms. Nevins called the remark "funny until you remember you are not in Siberia," and said she hopes to schedule the air date to coincide with the young women's release from jail.

Harvest Grains Stuffing Loaf
Now being the highly intelligent lot that you are, and allowing for the fact that Thanksgiving is next week, I'm only going to give you one guess as to what I'm planning on using this bread for. Tune in tomorrow to see. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll crawl on your belly like a reptile. (Well, maybe you'll laugh.)
Harvest Grains Stuffing Loaf (adapted from King Arthur)
1 3/4 cup boiling water
1/2 cup Harvest Grains Blend
3 TBSP olive oil
2 cups white whole wheat flour
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup milled flax
1/4 cup potato flour
1/4 cup dry milk powder
2 TBSP vital wheat gluten
2 1/4 tsp instant yeast
2 tsp poultry seasoning
1 1/2 tsp salt
Combine boiling water with the Harvest Grains Blend. Allow mixture to cool to no hotter than 110 degrees. Add the olive oil.
In bowl of stand mixer, whisk together the remaining ingredients. Add the cooled Harvest Grains mixture. Mix well. Attach dough hook and knead dough for 6-8 minutes, adding additional water or flour to make a smooth, pliable dough. Spray large bowl with cooking spray. Transfer dough to bowl and roll dough around to coat with cooking spray. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow to ferment until double in size, about one hour.
Spray 9X5 loaf pan with cooking spray. Punch dough down and shape into a loaf. Place loaf in prepared pan and cover loosely with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Let rise until dough has crested about one inch over the rim of the pan, 45 minutes to one hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place loaf in oven and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until internal temperature registers 190 degrees. Remove from oven and immediately transfer loaf from pan to cooling rack. Brush with melted butter if desired. (I desired.)

Irving v. Lipstadt
Holocaust Denial on Trial, Trial Judgment: Electronic Edition, by Charles GrayTable of Contents
|The issue of identificati... >
|The issue of interpretati... >>
The passages complained of
2.1 In Denying the Holocaust Lipstadt examines the origins and subsequent growth in the scope and intensity of what she describes as the phenomenon of Holocaust denial. She identifies several adherents of the revisionist movement and examines the basis for their beliefs, their methodology and the manner in which they deploy their arguments. She argues that "the deniers" represent a clear and present danger that the lessons to be learned by future generations from the terrible events of the 1930s and 40s will be obfuscated.
2.2 Irving regards himself as being the victim of an orchestrated campaign of boycotting, hounding and persecution by organisations in the UK and elsewhere. He considers Denying the Holocaust to be one of the principal instruments deployed in the campaign to destroy him.
2.3 He has selected for complaint a number of passages from Denying the Holocaust. (I was told that the passages complained of represent in total no more than five pages from a book which runs to more than two hundred pages). This is a course which he is entitled to take, providing of course that the removal of the passages from the context in which they appear in the book does not affect their interpretation. The Defendants are accordingly entitled to invite attention to the context in which the passages complained of appear in support of a submission that the context alters the meaning of the allegedly libellous passages. In the present case I do not understand the Defendants to be maintaining that the context materially affects the interpretation of any of the passages which Mr Irving has selected for complaint.
2.4 I shall therefore confine myself to setting out, with pagination, the passages which Irving contends are libellous of him (as well as highly damaging to his reputation as a serious historian):
- Cover and title page:
"Denying the Holocaust
The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory"
- Page 14:
The confluence between anti-Israel, anti-Semitic, and Holocaust denial forces was exemplified by a world anti-Zionist conference scheduled for Sweden in November 1992. Though cancelled at the last minute by the Swedish government, scheduled speakers included black Muslim leader Louis Farrakhan, Faurisson, Irving and Leuchter. Also scheduled to participate were representatives of a variety of anti-Semitic and anti-Israel organisations, including the Russian group Pamyat, the Iranian-backed Hezbollah, and the fundamentalist Islamic organisation Hamas1.
- Page 111:
Nolte contended that Weizmann's official declaration at the outbreak of hostilities gave Hitler good reason "to be convinced of his enemies' determination to annihilate him much earlier than when the first information about Auschwitz came to the knowledge of the world"2 [...] When Nolte was criticized on this point in light of prewar Nazi persecution of Jews, he said that he was only quoting David Irving, the right-wing writer of historical works. How quoting Irving justified using such a historically invalid point remains unexplained [...]3 As we shall see in subsequent chapters, Irving [...] has become a holocaust denier.These works demonstrate how deniers misstate, misquote, falsify statistics and falsely attribute conclusions to reliable sources. They rely on books that directly contradict their arguments, quoting in a manner that completely distorts the authors' objectives. Deniers count on the fact that the vast majority of readers will not have access to the documentation or make the effort to determine how they have falsified or misconstrued information.
- Page 161:
At the second trial Christie and Faurisson were joined by David Irving, who flew to Toronto in January 1988 to assist in the preparation of Zundel's second defense and to testify on his behalf. Scholars have described Irving as a "Hitler partisan wearing blinkers" and have accused him of distorting evidence and manipulating documents to serve his own purposes.4 He is best known for his thesis that Hitler did not know about the Final Solution, an idea that scholars have dismissed.5 The prominent British historian Hugh Trevor-Roper depicted Irving as a man who "seizes on a small and dubious part particle of 'evidence'" using it to dismiss far-more substantial evidence that may not support his thesis. His work has been described as "closer to theology or mythology than to history," and he has been accused of skewing documents and misrepresenting data in order to reach historically untenable conclusions, particularly those that exonerate Hitler.6 An ardent admirer of the Nazi leader, Irving placed a self-portrait of Hitler over his desk, described his visit to Hitler's mountaintop retreat as a spiritual experience,7 and declared that Hitler repeatedly reached out to help the Jews.8 In 1981 Irving, a self-described "moderate fascist", established his own right-wing political party, founded on his belief that he was meant to be a future leader of Britain.9 He is an ultra-nationalist who believes that Britain has been on a steady path of decline accelerated by its decision to launch a war against Nazi Germany. He has advocated that Rudolf Hess should have received the Nobel Prize for his efforts to try to stop war between Britain and Germany.10 On some level Irving seems to conceive himself as carrying on Hitler's legacy.[...] Prior to participating in Zundel's trial, Irving had appeared at IHR conferences [...] but he had never denied the annihilation of the Jews.11 That changed in 1988 as a result of the events in Toronto.Both Irving and Faurisson advocated inviting an American prison warden who had performed gas executions to testify in Zundel's defense, arguing that this would be the best tactic for proving that the gas chambers were a fraud and too primitive to operate safely. They solicited help from Bill Armontrout, warden of the Missouri State Penitentiary, who agreed to testify and suggested they also contact Fred A. Leuchter, an "engineer" residing in Boston who specialized in constructing and installing execution apparatus. Irving and Faurisson immediately flew off to meet Leuchter. Irving, who had long hovered on the edge of Holocaust denial, believed that Leuchter's testimony could provide the documentation he needed to prove the Holocaust a myth.12 According to Faurisson, when he first met Leuchter, the Bostonian accepted the "standard notion of the 'Holocaust'".13 After spending two days with him, Faurisson declared that Leuchter was convinced that it was chemically and physically impossible for the Germans to have conducted gassings.14 Having agreed to serve as an expert witness for the defense, Leuchter then went to Toronto to meet with Zundel and Christie and to examine the materials they had gathered for the trial.
- Page 179: David Irving, who during the Zundel trial declared himself converted by Leuchter's work to Holocaust denial and to the idea that the gas chambers were a myth, described himself as conducting a "one man intifada" against the official history of the Holocaust.15In his forward to his publication of the Leuchter Report, Irving wrote that there was no doubt as to Leuchter's "integrity" and "scrupulous methods". He made no mention of Leuchter's lack of technical expertise or of the many holes that had been poked in his findings. Most important, Irving wrote, "Nobody likes to be swindled, still less where considerable sums of money are involved." Irving identified Israel as the swindler, claiming that West Germany had given it more than ninety billion deutsche marks in voluntary reparations, "essentially in atonement for the 'gas chambers of Auschwitz'". According to Irving the problem was that the latter was a myth that would "not die easily".16 He subsequently set off to promulgate Holocaust denial notions in various countries. Fined for doing so in Germany, in his court room appeal against the fine he called on the court to "fight a battle for the German people and put an end to the blood lie of the Holocaust which has been told against this country for fifty years." He dismissed the memorial to the dead at Auschwitz as a "tourist attraction".17 He traced the origins of the myth to an "ingenious plan" of the British Psychological Warfare Executive, which decided in 1942 to spread the propaganda story that Germans were "using 'gas chambers' to kill millions of Jews and other 'undesirables'.18Branding Irving and Leuchter "Hitler's heirs", the British House of Commons denounced the former as a "Nazi propagandist and long time Hitler apologist" and the latter's report as a "fascist publication". One might have assumed that would have marked the end of Irving's reputation in England, but it did not. Condemned in the Times of London in 1989 as "a man for whom Hitler is something of a hero and almost everything of an innocent and for whom Auschwitz is a Jewish deception", Irving may have had his reputation revived in 1992 by the London Sunday Times.19 The paper hired Irving to translate the Goebbels diaries, which had been discovered in a Russian archive and, it was assumed, would shed light on the conduct of the Final Solution. The paper paid Irving a significant sum plus a percentage of the syndication fees.*[Footnote] * The Russian archives granted Irving permission to copy two microfiche plates, each of which held about forty-five pages of the diaries. Irving immediately violated his agreement, took many plates, transported them abroad, and had them copied without archival permission. There is serious concern in archival circles that he may have significantly damaged the plates when he did so, rendering them of limited use to subsequent researchers.Irving believes Jews are "very foolish not to abandon the gas chamber theory while they still have time." He "foresees [a] new wave of anti-semitism" due to Jews' exploitation of the Holocaust "myth", C.C. Aronsfeld, "Holocaust revisionists are Busy in Britain," Midstream, Jan. 1993, p.29.Journalists and scholars alike were shocked that the Times chose such a discredited figure to do this work. Showered with criticism, the editor of the Sunday Times, Andrew Neil, denounced Irving's view as "reprehensible" but defended engaging Irving because he was only being used as a "transcribing technician". Peter Pulzer, a professor of politics at Oxford and an expert on the Third Reich, observed that it was ludicrous for Neil to refer to Irving as a "mere technician", arguing that when you hired someone to edit a "set of documents others had not seen you took on the whole man".20However the matter is ultimately resolved, the Sunday Times had rescued Irving's reputation from the ignominy to which it had been consigned by the House of Commons. In the interest of a journalistic scoop, this British paper was willing to throw its task as a gatekeeper of the truth and of journalistic ethics to the winds. By resuscitating Irving's reputation, it also gave new life to the Leuchter Report.
- Page 181:
A similar attitude is evident in the media reviews of David Irving's books: Most rarely address his neofascist or denial connections.21Irving is one of the most dangerous spokespersons for Holocaust denial. Familiar with historical evidence, he bends it until it conforms with his ideological leanings and political agenda. A man who is convinced that Britain's great decline was accelerated by its decision to go to war with Germany, he is mist facile at taking accurate information and shaping it to confirm his conclusions. A review of his recent book, Churchill's War, which appeared in New York Review of Books, accurately analyzed his practice of applying a double standard of evidence. He demands "absolute documentary proof" when it comes to proving the Germans guilty, but he relies on highly circumstantial evidence to condemn the Allies.22 This is an accurate description not only of Irving's tactics, but of those of deniers in general.
- Page 213:
As we have seen above, Nolte echoing David Irving, argues that the Nazi "internment" of Jews was justified because of Chaim Weizmann's September 1939 declaration that the Jews of the world would fight Nazism.
- Page 221:
Another legal maneuver has been adopted by a growing number of countries. They have barred entry rights to known deniers. David Irving, for example, has been barred from Germany, Austria, Italy and Canada. Australia is apparently also considering barring him.23

Hi...Does anyone have any recommendations of how to keep toes warm in the winter? I'm having difficulty with cold air going through the mesh and my toes becoming numb.
Wool socks may help. A lot of people like Smartwool. I've also heard opeople putting duct tape on the toe areas. I've never tried it myself though.
Hi Sulli,
I actually use acrylic diabetic socks or those made with Coolmax/Thermax liner. There are many speciality brands of running socks utilizing the same materials. I have found that the diabetic socks offer a great deal of warmth, support and dry comfort. Also, consider purchasing trail running shoes for the winter. I always keep several pairs for the colder months. They offer great water-proof qualities and protection against the colder conditions. Usually, I am hesitant to recommend specific brands in anything, but I have utilized Hi-Tech since 2006 and I have always been amazed with the stability, durability and quality in all products http://www.hi-tec.com/us/
Wishing you many warm miles!
I wear two pair of socks. First on, Feetures wool/bamboo nylon blend. Over that, regular, plain old cotton crew socks.
Yes, I know that cotton is the root of all evil and I should be burned at the stake, but I wear this because the sweat that gets "wicked" away by the wool/wicky sock has to go somewhere. The cotton absorbs it more effectively than it would normally evaporate. It also adds a layer of insulation from the cold. Once my feet warm up they stay nice and toasty, and when I remove my socks they're dry. This is saying something as my feet sweat a lot more than most people's. It's been in the mid 20's to 30's here, and this works great.
Duct tape is what I use to cover the vents on my cycling shoes but I dont know if it would work on running shoes as they flex more than cycling shoes and so the tape may work itelf loose.
I always double up on socks or wear rugby/football socks in winter. There is no danger of blisters as my feat dont sweat when it is hovering near zero degrees outdoors!
2012 Running Targets:
Sub 39 minute 10k
Sub 12 IronMan (UK)
Blog - Motorola Motoactv
Thank you all for the great ideas! I'll try some of your suggestions....I would never have thought of duct tape, but it works for almost everything else so it should work for this too. Happy Holidays to you and happy running
A lot of medical supplies stores carry different types of socks that could help a lot. Good luck!

Man charged after fleeing police
Published: Wednesday, June 11, 2014 at 5:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, June 11, 2014 at 5:24 p.m.
Hendersonville police apprehended a wanted man, who bolted during a traffic stop, after a brief foot chase came to a halt with the help of a former corrections officer in the Epic Theatre parking lot Wednesday afternoon.
Officer Peter Laite said he attempted to stop a pickup truck for a fictitious tag at 12:29 p.m. The vehicle pulled off into the Energy Mart parking lot on the corner of Four Seasons Boulevard and Orrs Camp Road.
Michael Hoots, 34, who was riding in the middle of the front seat, got out of the truck and ran off toward Krispy Kreme.
Laite said he apprehended Hoots after a brief chase in the Epic Theatre parking lot with the help of a "good Samaritan" — a former corrections officer who happened to be nearby and witnessed the chase.
Hoots was wanted on a felony warrant out of Henderson County. He faces felony counts of obtaining property by false pretense and possessing stolen goods. Hoots was also charged Wednesday with resisting arrest.

Former Applebee's Vet Signs On for 10 Pie Five Units [1]
Read More About
The Kansas City, Missouri, area will soon welcome its first Pie Five Pizza Co. restaurant in a 10-unit franchise agreement with former Applebee's president and CEO Dave Goebel.
Goebel, a seasoned restaurant veteran who served as an executive at Applebee's for seven years, will join forces with his sons Kerry and Kevin to bring Pie Five to the Kansas City area.
"We looked very carefully at several fast-casual pizza concepts before making our decision," Goebel says. "Pie Five already has the franchise infrastructure and support system in place, and this is our opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a concept that is rapidly expanding throughout the nation."
Goebel was also impressed with the company's industry and franchising experience, strong leadership team, and approach to creating custom pizzas with the freshest ingredients, baked to order and ready to enjoy in just five minutes.
"Once we met the Pie Five leadership team, we were sold. They bring a wealth of restaurant experience from world-class concepts," Goebel says. "I've been in this industry a long time, and I know a great brand when I see one. And Pie Five is not just great, it's revolutionary."
Goebel started in the restaurant industry almost 40 years ago after earning his undergraduate degree from University of Notre Dame and while working on his graduate degree from Ohio State University.
He has held high-level executive positions at well-known chains, including vice president of operations at Ground Round and chief operating officer and partner at Boston Market.
Today, he also sits on the Board of Directors for Jack in the Box, Inc.
"I fell in love with the restaurant business at an early age," Goebel says. "I love the fast pace and interaction with guests. I also love that the industry is always changing and evolving. Pie Five is a game changer in the fast-casual space."
Goebel also owns Prime Catering, and operates Goodcents Deli Fresh Subs and Y-Leave Cafe locations as a franchisee in Kansas City.
Goebel will open his first Pie Five location in Kansas City. The city was recently ranked No. 10 on Travel & Leisure's "Best Cities for Pizza" list.
With the addition of Goebel, Pie Five has signed development agreements in the last six months for 38 locations that will also take the chain to Utah, North Carolina, and Florida.
"We are thrilled to welcome Dave, Kerry, and Kevin to the Pie Five team," says Randy Gier, CEO of Pie Five. "Dave and our growing franchise network bring a multitude of experience and pedigree to Pie Five. As we build and operate corporate locations alongside our franchisees, we are poised to become one of the top brands in the restaurant industry."
Since the original Pie Five restaurant opened in Fort Worth, Texas, in 2011, the concept has been recognized by Forbes as one of the 10 hot new chains.

MISSOURI CITY – The Texas A&M – Corpus Christi women's golf team wrapped the HBU Husky Invitational with a third-round 317 to finish in seventh place at the event. For the three rounds, the Islanders posted a 948 (322-309-317) at Riverbend Country Club this week.
