Thread: ADD TO SIBSET: This or That?

ADD TO SIBSET: This or That?
Okay so this is pretty simple but I'm fairly sure it hasn't been done before.
So what you'd do is list a sibset, for instance
#1) Emma and Nolan welcome baby sister...
Lily or Ruby?
the next poster selects a name, and then creates a new sibset using the selected name, giving options for a new sibling...
#2) Emma, Nolan and Ruby.
Ruby and Kit welcome baby brother...
Toby or Robin?
and it carries on (choose any genders and numbers of children)...
#3) Ruby, Kit and Toby.
Toby and Jessa welcome baby sibling...
Elle or Jude?
so technically a single name should be carried through 3 posts (see: Ruby above).
I haven't made a BNG for a while, so lets hope this one is easy enough to understand! Happy playing!
much love and i are waiting for you;

Skip to comments.Favorite FReepers [thread 2]
Posted on 06/12/2005 12:19:16 PM PDT by presario
We've all done it. You've just gotten home, logged on to FR, and are scrolling down the "Latest Posts" page, deciding which thread will get your attention this evening, when THAT SCREENNAME jumps out at you in a "to" or "from" position. You are powerless to resist; if THAT GUY's there, it's gonna be a good thread...
All of us have our own "favorites" among the many colorful souls who congregate at this fine website. They could be someone you disagree totally with, agree completely with, or somewhere in between. They might be a fount of useful information, links, and facts. Our favorite might be devastating at the art of debate; demolishing opponents in truly unique style, or he might be just plain nuttier than squirrel dung, but fun nonetheless.
Perhaps your favorite FReeper has a way with words; an excellent writer. Maybe they are someone highly experienced in a particular field, with knowledge that many do not posess. Maybe they're dumber than a bag of hammers.
Point is, no matter what the reason, our "favorite FReepers"' handle attached to a thread makes it all the more interesting to us; it guarantees a wild ride or sublime pleasure in the reading and learning. It may also guarantee an increase in blood pressure and indigestion, but one thing's for sure...that thread HE's on is gonna get a hit or two, and it won't be boring.
I've got more than a few of my own, and I'm sure all of you do as well. WHO'S YOURS?????????????????
mhking; lazamataz; TheBigB; Dashing Dasher; Pissant; mainepatsfan; SmithL; ScottSays; JeffAtlanta; BigBadWolf; GraniteStateConservative; LandoLincoln; many more I'll remember later
You can be my favorite if I can be yours.

Top Shelf !
I like the photo-shoppers...they spend a long time at what they do and usually hit the nail on the politically incorrect head...
Wow! This will be fun.

teenyelliott and carolinacrazy, for being cool and of like mind and interest as me.

Oh, and I forgot Leapfrog for letting me in the club!

There's FREE BEER????? :-)(nobody tells me nuttin!)
Owl Eagle
Oh, and all your threads suck, BTW.
I hate to tell ya' but I'm martin's writer.

Thank you.
I'd say my "favorite" FReepers would include:
martin_fierro and mikrofon, whose mots are always bon
PJ-Comix, for providing the DUmmie FUnnies
All I got is a little box again.
Blur, are you campaigning for this award? Okay, I will vote for you as a favorite son candidate. However, in the event you are not able to fulfill your duties, I am obligated by the treaty of Guadelupe-Hidalgo to cast my vote for the Bishop of East Anglia.
Well of Course ALL Female Freepers with ONE EXCEPTION and Dashing Dasher and pissant know who I am speaking of :)
opposite of yes....hint hint...
Of Course PISSANT, hands down Joe Six Pack, Sisu Kid, Mr Jeeves
Your 14!

GMC moving investments away from fossil fuel companiesMay 14,2013By Lucia Suarez
POULTNEY — Green Mountain College joins a growing movement of colleges and universities that are moving their investments away from fossil fuel companies.
Last Friday, the college's Board of Trustees approved to divest it's endowment from 200 publicly-trade companies which hold most of the world's known coal, oil and gas reserves. The decision, announced Tuesday, aligns the college with its strategic plan "Sustainability2020" that commits the college to socially responsible investments.
"We see this as another step in an ongoing effort to connect our investment decisions with our ideals," said college President Paul Fonteyn, in a statement.
"Investing endowment funds on the basis of social, economic and environmental criteria is one of the ways Green Mountain College expresses its values."
With this decision, GMC becomes the second higher education institution in Vermont to divest from fossil fuels. Earlier this year, the board of trustees at Sterling College in Craftsbury Commons voted to divest its endowment from fossil fuel companies.
Currently, divestment is under consideration at Middlebury College.MORE IN This Just InPolice said a Rutland man knocked out another mans teeth. Full StoryWEST PAWLET Pancake-breakfast fundraiser season will kick off Sept. 11. Full StoryOmya is hosting an educational tour at a Middlebury quarry.

Bronzed cowbird
The bronzed cowbird (once known as the red-eyed cowbird), (Molothrus aeneus), is a small icterid.
It breeds from the southern U.S. states of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Louisiana south through Central America to Panama. An isolated population on the Caribbean coast of Colombia is sometimes treated as a separate species, the bronze-brown cowbird (M. armenti).
The male bronzed cowbird is 20 cm long and weighs 68 g, with green-bronze glossed black plumage and red eyes. The female is 18.5 cm long and weighs 56 g. She is duller black above and browner below. Young birds are like the female but have grey feather fringes.
Like all cowbirds, this bird is a brood parasite: it lays its eggs in the nests of other birds. The young cowbird is fed by the host parents at the expense of their own young. Hosts include Prevost's ground-sparrow and yellow-throated brush finch.

Nicki Minaj Was 2 Hours Late To Her Wireless Festival Set
Nicki Minaj was scheduled to perform at the Wireless Festival's 7PM slot Sunday night, but due to delays with her flight, she missed her allotted timeframe entirely and had to barge David Guetta's set. Unfortunately, she was only able to perform a condensed version of her planned setlist, cramming her hits into a 30-minute medley. Many fans angrily left early after waiting all day for Minaj, but those who stuck around seemed to be happy with what they got.

thought quality would be better since bowl was over 20 dollars for a cereal bowl.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? right color
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. bad quality and for the cost thought bowl would be better. If ity did not cost me 9.00 to return it, would have.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? very deceiving
These bowls are amazing. They are durable, beautiful, functional and I am here to order more. The bowls are a plastic product, the outside has a rough finish perhaps simulating a wood (e.g. bamboo) and the inside has a smooth shiny finish with a vibrant color. I purchased these to use outdoors but my family reaches for them to use as daily dishes. I want to find the plates next.

|Questions & Answers (1)
This innovative sharpener has two holes (barrels). The first hole is used to sharpen the wood, and the second is used to sharpen the lead. An automatic brake prevents over-sharpening. The result is a sharp, long point. Other special design features include the hard, rust-resistant, high-carbon steel blades that are held securely in place by screws (versus rivets which may allow wobbling). The blades are razor-sharp and fitted onto cone-shaped holes designed to reduce friction, allowing you to turn and sharpen pencils with less force.
Each blade can sharpen pencils thousands of times, but may need to be replaced after fewer uses if it is frequently used for pencils of 3H or higher hardness. Two spare blades are included with this sharpener.

"Call-time pass-by-reference" has been depreciated in PHP for some time, and only generated lots of PHP warnings... but on PHP v5.4 and above, it throws fatal errors, preventing any WP page, including wp-admin pages, from loading at all.
I discovered the hard-way that Edit Flow v0.7.1 is using "Call-time pass-by-reference" and will bring down WP sites on PHP v5.4 and above upon activation.
It is a simple fix for plugin developers referenced here.
I look forward to using this plugin once again, if/when it is updated.

Attention: To Whom It May Concern:
Dear Kim T Ripper,
When I came into your facility on 03/10/07 I was given some papers to fill out, after filling out the papers myself and Frances was approached by one of your representatives. At that time we were asked a few questions and your reprehensive asked us to come in the back with him. He was partially explaining what he thought was necessary to get out attention, leaving out a lot of detail.
He managed to tell us about his $80,000 a year salary and his BMW and how he wasn't making any monies off of our sale. He talked about a lot of things. He asked us if April 21, 2007 we wanted some beer or champagne, I expressed to him that neither myself/Frances were drinkers; he insisted we have a drink so we did.
He wanted to check out my credit history and assured me that my card wouldn't be charged; needlessly to say it was. When I questioned him he told me not to worry about that my property would go up for rental and I would be sent a check in the mail to do with it what I pleased. I was also given a gold points card, which he said was good for purchasing items off the intranet and for using at restaurants.
During the following week I was eating at a well-known restaurant and asked if they accepted that card and they said no. At that time I noticed the card had 2008 on it, so I called Grand Seas Resort the following day and the young lady I spoke with told me someone would get back to me in 24 hrs that didn't happen. I called back to let a young lady know I would be in that area on the following weekend of 3/10 evidently she got in touch with your reprehensive that mishandled this situation.
He called me ranting and raving about how he's in Miami at a funeral for his father; he explained to me the reason why the gold card rewards say 2008 is because it had something to do with my credit score I said okay fine.
When I was at the Resort I ended up spilling a glass of champagne on the desk of the young who was drawing up the papers, your reprehensive kept talking about Frances walk and her big butt, I used the ladies room and came out and asked him when was my property going to be rented his response was the young man is on the phone taking care of that right now.
He assured me that I would never have to come out of my pocket with money because every year I can rent this property out and use my points and my getaways which would never go over $299.00 per getaway.
I called your facility on 4/17/07 to speak with a reprehensive and she couldn't fine any information on my. She asked if my last name was Anderson, I said no. She told me someone would call me back in 48hrs I called back on yesterday and spoke with a young man who did find me in your system. He told me that I wouldn't be able to rent my property out until 2008 or use my points.
Prior to that I gave your reprehensive a call the one who's dad had deceased and asked him about renting of my property he said he would have his assistant send the papers out to me, I asked how long does it take for the actual rental he said 45-60 days, I was still alright with that again he lied to me constantly.
While there I asked when could we start using the resort his response was immediately another lie. He gave me his house #, his cell # and his e mail address and told me not to talk with any one there to always go through him. I'm unhappy with this we have been fraud from the door. He never gave us a tour of the property, he gave us a room # to go and look at a property which was another fraud because it had 2 bedrooms. He got in his BMW and took off we had to go in the lobby of Grand Seas Resort and asked one of the young ladies that was working behind the desk to show us a one bedroom.
For these reasons I would like to cancel this contract, I've already called American Express and have this in a dispute with them and I trust we don't have to take this any farther. Please notify me by mail and keep a watch on who's representing you.
As you can see I have the original cancellation letter included when I was mislead about the gold points. I would never purchase anything that I cannot have use of until the following year. Why did he even draw the paper work up that way, seems like he did what he wanted to do and told us what we wanted to hear..

Bowl Of Chalk provide three regular 'pay what you want' group walking tours in London on weekends and tailor made 'private' guided walks during the week.
If it's your first visit to London, or you've lived here your whole life, a Bowl Of Chalk walking tour is a great way to discover, uncover and experience London.
I would say that though ... but Bowl Of Chalk has been featured in The Guardian, The Independent, Time Out London's 101 favourite things to do, on BBC Radio 4, on the European travel website, Go To Town and German Deutsche Bahn magazine Mobil.
Bowl Of Chalk walking tours are hopefully fun, very informal and incredibly informative.
Incidentally, Bowl of Chalk is cockney rhyming slang for 'walk'. If you don't know what cockney rhyming slang is then look it up, or I can tell you when we meet.
You see, you've already just learned something about London and you haven't even come on a Bowl Of Chalk yet.
Want to join a weekend walk in London?
I'm now taking bookings for the following dates:
September - 10th & 11th, 17th & 18th, 24th & 25th
October -1st & 2nd, 15th (PM only) & 16th, 22nd & 23rd, 29th & 30th
September - 10th & 11th, 17th & 18th, 24th & 25th
October -1st & 2nd, 15th (PM only) & 16th, 22nd & 23rd, 29th & 30th
Interested in a Private weekday walk?
If you're visiting London during the week and still fancy coming on a Bowl Of Chalk then please let me know because I'd love to show you around. I also do wanders around Westminster, including Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament and places like that, or can suggest a one off fun walk around London that might tickle your own particular Londony taste buds. Please see the Private Walks section for more information.
Bowl Of Chalk was voted by Londoners as one of their Time Out 101 favourite things to do in London.

The State of Games, Ep. 112 – The One About Gen Con 2016
The summer is drawing to a close and, with it, so is the season for big conventions. None are bigger each year than Gen Con, and this year was the biggest yet, scattering all four of us from the podcast to the four winds only to see each other sporadically. But, with the distance comes opportunity, as we all get to share very different experiences for all of you to enjoy, dear listeners. Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 111 – The One About Running With The Bulls
It's time for the really big show! That's right, it's time to get our butts to Indianapolis for Gen Con! It's hard to believe it's here again so soon, and even as I post this a day before I'm leaving I still have about a week's worth of work to do. It'll all be worth it, though, to see the sights, the spectacles, and the super gamers having fun. Also, I'm really looking forward to some super spicy shrimp cocktail. Seriously. Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 110 – The One About Mt. Gamesmore
Coming at you live from RuthCon, it's The State of Games! Jessica and I got a chance to record in person this episode at RuthCon 2016, hosted by our friend Ruth Boyack. It was pretty awesome, and better organized than both Origins and GenCon combined. TC joined us via Skype and we talked about some pretty geeky game design business, but it turned out to be one of our best episodes yet. So get comfy, grab your encyclopedia of classic game design, and crank it up! Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 109 – The One About Origins 2016
Hey there, it's time for con season! Veteran podcast listeners know what to to expect around this time, but also veteran readers know what to expect for Origins Game Fair! That's right, we love our time at the North Market, eating waffles and crepes at Taste of Belgium, plus naming our favorite ice cream flavors from Jeni's! Beyond that, you'd best lay back and listen to our best bits from enjoying everything at the Origins Game Fair if you weren't able to attend. It'll be like you were there in person. Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 108 – The One About Heading to Columbus
It's officially convention season! And it's time to head out to one of the biggest shows of the year – Origins Game Fair in Columbus, Ohio! Other than PrezCon, this is probably my favorite show of the year. It's big, but not so big that you don't have time to catch up with all your favorite people and play some of your favorite games – and discover new favorites! So download and listen on your drive or flight; we'll fill you in on all the good stuff to see and do! Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 107 – The One About Our Origin Stories
We all have to start somewhere, right? As gamers, we can all trace our hardcore gaming roots back to a few select moments, and that's what we try to get at in this episode. Naturally, Magic: The Gathering is the catalyst for most, but there are still a few surprises in store as to how we all got started down this long, winding, expensive – but lovely – road. After listening, tell us how YOU got started in gaming! Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 106 – The One About the Here and Now
Since we are a podcast all about boardgames, sometimes we all just like to dig into some good discussion of the best and brightest we've played in the here and now. We've all done our top 10 of all time in the past, but it's often good to remember that a top 10 is not necessarily a "hot 10″, and some of those classics we love don't hit the table nearly as much as some more recent, modern classics that definitely deserve some love! Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 105 – The One About Being Alone in the Void with Richard Launius
There comes a time in the life of every podcast when we all just have go our separate ways. Kinda. Since our schedules weren't matching up for our usual recording we decided to split up into teams and give all of you dear listeners double your pleasure, double your fun! Since Darrell and I aren't really into solo gaming, TC and Jessica decide to pick up that slack, all while we have some fun down in South Carolina with one of our favorite people in the world, Richard Launius.

The State of Games, Ep. 104 – The One About Unpub 6
I've been lucky enough to be a part of the Unpublished Games Festival since way back at Unpub 2, and it's hard to believe just how big this little big convention has gotten. Way back in the day it was a few designers huddled around some tables in a VFW hall, and now it's a ton of gamers from all over invading the Baltimore Convention Center. It's awesome! I can't wait to see where Unpub 10 is going to be. Maybe the moon! Read More Read More
The State of Games, Ep. 103 – The One About Playtesting
Game design can often be a complex process that involves many people, not just the designer. One of the most important parts of the process is playtesting, and getting the game in front of quality playtesters is paramount. With Unpub 6 right around the corner, we thought it'd be cool to talk about how to get the most out of playtesting on both sides of the process. Oh, and you all should come to Unpub 6. Because it's cool. Read More Read More

Sachin Tendulkar's retirement an emotional time for India: Yuvraj Singh

An emotional Yuvraj, who guided India to a six-wicket win over Australia here, dedicated his unbeaten innings to Tendulkar who yesterday announced that he would quit Test cricket after playing his 200th match against the West Indies next month.
"Well I don't know if I am happy or sad. Happy that I hit the ball and sad day that Sachin is retiring. But really happy the way I hit the ball and how I continued to play well since the India A and West Indies A series," Yuvraj said at the post-match press conference.
"Definitely, I would like to dedicate it to Sachin and hopefully, maybe tell him on the phone as well. That is the least I can do, dedicate this knock to him. I will also like to dedicate this knock to my mother who prayed a lot for my comeback. Everyday she has been praying for me," he said.
The 31-year-old batsman, who last played an international match in January, was recalled to the national team after a string of fine performances for India A against West Indies A and a solid display for India Blue in the NKP Salve Challenger Series.
"Yuvi is back my friend," he told the media.
Yuvraj said it was an emotional moment for the country when an iconic cricketer like Tendulkar retires and added that he did not want to see him leave the game.
"I don't think I am going to let him go away. I am going to catch hold of his feet and not (let him) leave the dressing room. It has been amazing to play with him for so many years. One of the greatest players to have played the game. I don't know what to say," he said, adding that the team did not discuss Tendulkar's retirement in the dressing room.
"There are so many things to say about Sachin, probably the best Indian cricketer ever played. Just the milestone as not only as a cricketer but just as a man, who is an ambassador of cricket around the world. So it is going to be an emotional time for the whole of India," Yuvraj said.
"Sachin will always be very special to me. I am sure I will have the opportunity to play with him, I don't know if I will (be selected) but if I am not playing, I will definitely come and watch (his last match)," he added.
Yuvraj, who survived a germ cell cancer, said that people should respect Tendulkar's decision.
"It is upto him when he wanted to retire. A player of his stature should decide when he wants to leave. I would want him to play for 10 more years with us. It is his decision and we need to respect that. It will be an emotional time for India when he plays his last match," he said.
Describing the qualities he likes about Tendulkar, the flamboyant left-hand batsman said that it would be tough to see the champion batsman go.
"He is a very down-to-earth person. He never showed he is the great Sachin Tendulkar. He was always trying to reach out to youngsters although we were a bit reluctant to go out to him. Personally he has always guided me on and off the field about things in my life, specially the World Cup journey. So it has been very special playing with him. I can't really express it in words. It is tough for me to see him go."
He said it would be next to impossible for anybody to fill in the shoes of the 40-year-old retiring batsman.
"The way he hits the ball, the way he is always still. The best batsman I have seen in my career, technique-wise. How he has been smart all these years to know what bowlers are going to bowl to him. He always been one or two steps ahead, and that is why he been consistent for so many years. To have such consistency over so many years is really tough for any batsman. He is just something amazing. He has been a God's gift to India. It is going to be difficult for anybody to
replace him as the next Tendulkar," he said.
Yuvraj rated his comeback knock as special and said, "Definitely it is special. I have come back after a few months. I have worked quite hard in the off season and I have worked on the mental aspect of my game," he said.
"Just happy the way I hit the ball. I have been playing well in the domestic season. I had a tough off season, shed a few kilos, so I am happy the way I am hitting the ball," he added.
On the unbeaten 102-run stand he had with skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Yuvraj said, "We have had a lot of partnerships in the past. And we have always discussed which bowlers to go after. If I get out then, one person is attacking and one person is trying to rotate the strike. We have a very good understanding between us for last couple of years. So talking to him always helps."
He said he hoped to continue his form in the seven-match ODI series starting October 13 in Pune.
"I hope to continue the good form. Play according to the situation and try to make India win again. Australia is ranked number two in ODIs. They have a very good side. It is going to be a good series so I hope to contribute with my batting, bowling and fielding. It is going to be a tough series and hopefully we can play good tough cricket, sensible cricket and win the series," he said.

I am not rich, I cancelled my membership, never heard anything from any of their representatives, that I was promised would get back to me, and now I am out of almost $100.00 because I agreed to try this product that literally burns my gums. When I asked why I have not even received the product if there is no refund I never got an answer for that either.
I am not one to fall into these rip-off companies, but I thought this one was legitimate. Obviously I was wrong.
What can be done about this, I cannot afford to lose this kind of money?-
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!

Evander Holyfield Gives His Take on Mayweather-Ortiz
By Mitch Abramson
Am I the only one disturbed by what happened to Victor Ortiz on Saturday? Am I the only one who felt a little embarrassed for the sport after witnessing the ending? Am I the only one who thinks the line of defense used to justify Floyd Mayweather's actions, that Ortiz should have protected himself at all times, is absurd? Does it really matter what I think? Not in the grand scheme of things, but let me say this: I started the day as a Mayweather fan, a not-so-secret admirer, and walked away shaking my head after the card, wondering if I would ever watch the guy fight again.
For someone who values the importance of sportsmanship, whose favorite part of the fight (or one of his favorite parts) is when two fighters embrace in a show of mutual respect after the fight, Saturday's ending was a little nauseating. After Ortiz was deducted a point for a head butt in the fourth round, he tried to embrace Mayweather as if requesting forgiveness. When he pulled back from the hug, Mayweather quickly unloaded on him while Ortiz's hands were down, dropping him for the count.
I kept asking myself if some of the great fighters of the sport, Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard- if they would have ended a fight that way, hitting an opponent while his hands were down after touching gloves or hugging it out. I kept thinking they wouldn't. Manny Pacquiao? Definitely not. I thought, maybe I'm being a little naïve here, that maybe I was looking at it from the wrong angle. I phoned Evander Holyfield on a Sunday night. Who better than Evander to weigh-in on a rough-and-tumble fight? (Besides, in what other sport can you just phone an all-time great on a whim and ask him questions?)
The "Real Deal," said he wasn't surprised that Floyd retaliated like he did after he was butted. Holyfield was of course looking at the fight from the perspective of a fighter who has been fouled repeatedly, as Mayweather was against Ortiz. (Ortiz tried to butt Mayweather a number of times whenever he got him in a corner.)
"Of course you're dealing with someone who naturally is going to get you back," Holyfield said in his southern drawl, speaking of Mayweather. "And there is no doubt in my mind that he would get him back, and of course he waited for the perfect time to do it. And what happened is, he took advantage of the things that had been said, you know, you have to hold your hands up all the time."
Holyfield thinks Joe Cortez, the referee on Saturday, should have given Ortiz five minutes to rest after he was decked by Mayweather because he obviously wasn't ready for the onslaught that put him down at 2:59 of the fourth round.
As for whether Holyfield would have reacted the same way that Mayweather had, attacking Ortiz when he wasn't ready, Holyfield said, "No," though he can understand why Mayweather did.
"Me personally, I wouldn't because that's just not me," said Holyfield, who is in discussions for a title bout with WBA heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin, perhaps for Dec. 17. "But it's hard to say if that happens," Holyfield went on. "If someone fouled you on purpose first, every person that I know who is tough already has an attitude already, [so anything can happen]."
Holyfield drew from his own history, speaking of a bout in 1989 with Michael Dokes. He said that Dokes kept hitting him low, without getting a point deducted. Eventually, Holyfield took matters into his own hands.
"The referee kept saying he was going to take a point away, but he never did," Holyfield said. "The next time he did it, I didn't wait for the referee. I hit him [low] on purpose. He went down and then I stood over him and started talking to him. This is the kind of stuff that happens."
Holyfield's point is that stuff, sometimes sordid stuff, happens in boxing. Sometimes if a fighter fouls another fighter hard enough, it may cause the other fighter to foul back in frustration, which is kind of what Mayweather did, without being called on the foul.
"In the fight on Saturday, it's a little different because the referee did take away a point from Ortiz," Holyfield said. "He did take the point off."
So does that mean Floyd was wrong to do what he did? Holyfield wasn't sure.
Holyfield watched the fight on television surrounded by people who were making a lot of noise, and he admitted it was hard to hear what the referee was saying to the fighters at the end. I watched the fight in the Ziegfeld Theater in Manhattan, with around 20 other hardcore fans in my company. We all saw Mayweather dominate the first three rounds, take an illegal head butt from Ortiz in the fourth- for which a point was deducted- and watch, as if in slow motion, when a clearly oblivious Ortiz dropped his guard to embrace Mayweather, apologizing again for butting him. Mayweather leaned in, and then quickly nailed Ortiz twice while his hands were down. Fight over.
Since Cortez had instructed the fighters to resume the fight after the penalty, Mayweather was not wrong to carry on as he did. But was he morally right to continue the fight like that? Was he justified to conduct himself like that? Did he do the right thing when Ortiz clearly wasn't ready? Did he act like a champion in that moment when he chopped Ortiz down with a left-hook, right-hand combination? Did he act like a role model in that instant? Am I being a bit dramatic here? Perhaps. But I don't think Mayweather comported himself like a champion. He was winning the fight. He would have stopped Ortiz eventually. It was only a matter of time. I wanted to see Floyd break down Ortiz systematically.
I wanted a conventional ending. Instead, the ending was messy and painted the sport as disorganized and chaotic and lawless even if Mayweather was within his rights to do what he did. It just didn't look right. Cortez didn't help things. He should have been close to the fighters at the end. Instead, he was talking to someone outside the ring, not even paying attention. Maybe he could have coordinated that last embrace between the fighters a little better.
In any event, Mayweather shouldn't have attacked a defenseless Ortiz, just as he did against Arturo Gatti more than six years ago when Gatti was leveled by a left hook he didn't see because he was too busy talking to the referee. Mayweather revealed himself to be, once again, a win-at-all-costs fighter who doesn't care how he does it, just as long as he gets his hand raised at the end. And of course Ortiz was too trusting and naïve. Not ready for the big time, or a ring predator like Mayweather.
No one can doubt Mayweather's genius in the ring. He's a ring savant, a brilliant strategist. He will probably go down as one of the best defensive fighters ever, one of its smartest tacticians the sport has seen. But no matter how strange he acted outside the ring, I always fancied him a sportsman, someone who respected the sport's unspoken etiquette because of his background, from his father to his uncle to his amateur pedigree. Mayweather always seemed to train hard, always came prepared. He was a student of the game, it seemed. He's still most of those things, just not the sportsman part. And to me, that's a big deal. It's simple, really. Mayweather should have waited a second until Ortiz put his hands up.
It was clear that Ortiz worked the butts into his fightplan. He probably thought he could use them if floyd uses the elbow. The problem is that Floyd doesnt launch his elbow into the other persons face. He uses it…Comment by slickfox on 09-27-2011

I've seen their ads everywhere so I tried putting out a few jobs because they advertise that it is a safe place to do business (with their escrow) and that they maintain high standards.
I have posted 4 jobs (1 reposted). I carefully reviewed and selected providers who had high Elance ratings and skill levels (according to their tests).
3 of the providers were complete flakes! Nothing but a lot of wasted time and wasted money. At least those were small jobs and I just paid them and moved on.
The real problem was with one job which was for $1500. I even talked to the provider on the phone before putting money into an escrow account with Elance.
After 3 weeks the provider still hadn't produced anything at all and two of what they call milestones had passed. I asked for some work product within 7 days or my money back.
After 10 days I started calling and emailing Elance. I had to fill out this form and send it in. The provider sent one back saying they were working on it.
Elance is IMPOSSIBLE to get ahold of. It takes a week and a half to get an email back and you can never get them on the phone. They never return messages you leave on their answering machine. They don't even have an 800 number.
This was back in like late September of last year. So Elance has been keeping my Escrow for about 5 months. The provider doesn't even answer my messages anymore. Elance even had the gall to tell me "at least the provider doesn't have your funds". WHAT?!?!
So it's better that Elance has basically stolen my money?
The Better Business Bureau rejected my complaint. I guess they protect their PAYING members.
I sent a letter to their states attorney generals office. Maybe they can get my money back from the thieves at Elance.
If you are a buyer looking to hire people DO NOT USE ELANCE!!!!!!
You WILL regret it!!
