William Gundy: Political correctness is out of control
I used to view most forms of "political correctness" as a kind of social nudge; a reminder that our language can reinforce stereotypes, carry negative connotations, or otherwise offend individuals in certain groups. So, I was happy to substitute "African American" for "Black," "Latino" for "Mexican," and even "spring break" for "Easter Break." I've even tried to remember to call the garbage collector a "sanitation worker."
But those nudges are beginning to feel more like sledgehammers. Political correctness has moved to the absurd — not only in terms of hypersensitivity to perceived slights, but also in the blatant demand for groupthink conformity. Orwell's "thought police" have arrived.
Lest you think I'm overreacting, consider the newest trend, from the world of academia, for identifying what John McWhorter, in a recent New York Times article, describes as " quiet, often unintended slights — racist or sexist — that make a person feel underestimated on the basis of color or gender." The term for these "slights" is "microaggression," a concept McWhorter promises we will hear a lot more about.
The article offers several examples of microaggression, including " when someone says 'I don't see you as black,' claims to be color blind, purports not to be sexist or in general doesn't acknowledge one's race or gender." To further elaborate, McWhorter cited the McGill University student who was forced to publicly apologize for sending an email to other students that contained a doctored picture of President Obama kicking a door, with a caption reading "Honestly midterms, get out of here." According to McWhorter, the image " perpetuated a historical legacy of black men being portrayed as violent." Freedom of speech be damned.
If the whole concept of microaggression seems like a way to promote censorship in the name of "sensitivity," it may have to take a back seat to the movement toward "trigger warnings." Last month, a Los Angeles Times editorial highlighted a resolution by the Student Senate at UC Santa Barbara that would make it mandatory for all professors to issue "trigger warnings" cautioning students about potentially disturbing or offensive course content. According to the article, the professors would have to " excuse students from those classes, with no points deducted, if the students felt the material would distress them."
And this is not an aberration. According to the editorial, Oberlin College in Ohio has advised its professors to eliminate "triggering material" in course content that is "not directly related to learning goals." The college lists a number of such triggers, including "sexual misconduct, racism, classism, sexism, heterosexism, cissexism (slights against people who accept and identify with the gender with which they were born), ableism (slights against disabled people) and other issues of privilege and oppression." Welcome to PC Gone Wild.
It is both ironic, and downright scary, that some of our institutions of higher learning would trample roughshod over academic freedom in the name of "sensitivity." The phenomenon, however, is not confined to college campuses. We receive regular directives from the media, and all levels of government, about how we should be speaking and thinking.
Perhaps the most influential news source in the world, The Associated Press, for example, declared recently that it would no longer be referring to illegal immigrants as "illegal" immigrants in its news reports.
The phrase we will hear, and read, henceforth, will be "undocumented immigrant." The reason? The term"illegal," according to AP, could be perceived as "uncivil or defamatory." Meanwhile, Seattle's Office of Civil Rights has instructed government workers to eliminate the word "citizen" from "public documents and discussions," because the term might be offensive to noncitizen residents.
These semantic gymnastics may seem like a harmless way for the left to sell a political brand that touts their compassion and sensitivity, while spinning conservatives as unenlightened and uncaring. Not only does this garner a lot of votes from members of targeted groups, it exerts considerable social pressure for conformance. After all, nobody wants to be characterized as an ignorant "hater." But the price for nonconformance seems to have gone well beyond name-calling. And therein lies the danger.
Just ask the CEO of Mozilla, forced to resign because he had the audacity to make a contribution six years ago in support of a state proposition that defined marriage as a union between a man and a woman — ironically, the same definition that Barack Obama embraced at the time.
Or, ask the owner of the L.A. Clippers who, during a phone conversation, expressed repugnant, racially intolerant thoughts. It cost him $2.5 million and will force him to give up his team ownership. Few would argue that Donald Sterling's comments weren't ignorant and grossly offensive. But since when, in America, can someone's property be taken away, without any semblance of due process, based on a private conversation?
Since the sledgehammer arrived.

Rio Heroes champions sign with NEW promotion (interview)
After the demise of Rio Heroes some doubts were still present about the real value of their top stars and how they would perform on major MMA promotions. It didn't take too long for a new professional MMA organization to emerge in the Brazilian scene and sign RH champions William Vianna, Flávio Álvaro and Pedro Santos and throw them top opposition. Watch Out Combat Show will debut in about one month and MMA Europe got an exclusive interview.
After the demise of Rio Heroes there were some doubts about the real value of some fighters, like William Vianna, Flávio Álvaro or Pedro Santos. Is Watch Out Combat Show's
intention to privide them top opponnents and see if they really have what it takes?
Well, before they became themselves Rio Heroes champions they already had conquests and decent accomplishments in their career. Okay, Vianna, Alvaro and Santos are two times Rio Heroes champions, but look they won into MMA fights too. Just to give you examples, Alvaro has four belts in his career and "The Stone Hands" Santos is current Juiz-de-Fora Fight middleweight champion and won a 4-man tournament, under 90kg, in Sao Paulo two years ago. Of course the popularity of Rio Heroes made they become famous due to the internet marketing, but I guess they don't need to prove much. Of course they need to win somehow, because they'll have the spotlights turned to them at WatchOut Combat Show over the fact this show will be broadcasted by intheguard.tv. So this is a good opportunity for more recognition and reputation. Well, these three mentioned are booked against tough
opponents in Williams Porfirio (Brazilian Top Team), Diego Braga (Gracie Fusion) and Andre Santos (Renovacao Fight Team) to displaying all you can imagine: they can come across like the winners, they've utmost tough challenges in these bouts and their styles combined with these adversaries are guarantees of hell of fights and awesome entertainments.
Having most of the Rio Heroes' stars on your cast isn't the promotion affraid of being catalogued as street fighting, instead of professional MMA?

EL RENO (AP) - The mother of a slain 10-year old boy has moved from this small town, saying she can't bear to live in the same community with the youth jurors acquitted of fatally shooting her son.
The 10-year-old suspect was found not guilty in a juvenile court on first-degree murder charges in the shooting death of Tremain Richey, also 10.
"I cannot see (him) walking around freely and playing freely and playing sports or whatever," said Tremain's mother, Tiffany Gillispie. "It's something Tremain will never get to do. I just can't do that. I can't stay there anymore."
Gillispie said she disagrees with the decision of the six-member jury that heard testimony in the week-long trial.
The accused boy's relatives and his attorney have said police arrested the wrong person.
The boy's stepfather, Ed Smith, said the prosecution's case was based on two young children who said they witnessed the shooting.
The witnesses include Tremain's 5-year-old sister, Tionna Gillispie, whom Smith said had been influenced to blame his stepson.

I love the look of these sweatpants. Order in M and should of gotten a S. My regular size is M, so I think these runs slightly big. They're a little loose on me, but not to bad. I'll keep it to wear it around the house and might order another one in small just because how comfortable these sweatpants are. I'm also 4'll so that's why it runs kind of long on me. The pants hit right at my ankle. ... read more
The jacket and pants didn't match in color or fabric type. I liked the "OLD" Track/Training suits from the 1970-80's. They zipped in the legs so one could get the pants on or off without having to remove your shoes. Also the fabric was like a satinine outside and had a really comfortable and soft inner fabric. They were easy to keep clean and maintain. I was the Athletic Trainer ATC for 7 high schools in the Des Moines Unified High School District in Des Moines, IA; and I also worked at Drake University in Des Moines, IA; Iowa State in Ames, IA; and University of Iowa in Iowa City, IA. A Anyway, I wish you would manufacture the old suits again as they were fantastic. I had a couple of suits for each school in their colors, about 20 in all. ... read more
I wanted something that was fitting so I can wear it by itself or on top of something. This is really nice! It's very thin, so it's not exactly a good "warm" jacket, but more of like a track jacket, which is what it is. The zipper pockets are nice as well- they hold a lot of things! I like this jacket overall, and would recommend it! ... read more
I purchased these thinking they would look like the picture & fit like crop pants.....I was extremely wrong!!!! These fit & look just like track pants and the length of the pants come past my ankle! I'm 5'5 185lbs & I ordered a XL so that I could have room in hip area. The pants are too big, sloppy in the crotch area, and exceeds past my ankle. ... read more
Love to wear this jacket when I'm wearing just casual clothes. It makes me look just a tad bit put together, and I love how it looks cute whether you're wearing just a t-shirt and jeans or your gym clothes. ... read more

I usually wear 32 waist spends tons on designer jeans but buy 34 and wear belt.

I love this jacket so much!! I recommend ordering two sizes up if you don't usually shop in children's/ juniors clothing. It fits perfectly and it's great material and quality! The shipping was very fast as well. 10/10 product!! ... read more
Perfect jacket for all purposes. It's super comfortable and looks awesome. The collar isn't too high either, so you can easily zip it up all the way and not have it bugging your chin. It's very light weight and has cooling ventilation in high wear areas so do not purchase if you are looking for warmth. It is a light weight cooling warm up jacket. I wear it to the gym and to the field and even out on the town because it looks great. Like I said, it's my new favorite jacket. It does run a tad bit big but not big enough to order a size up - it's a little loose not tight fitting. ... read more
I adore the Adidas brand l buy it for style and function. It is very comfortable, breathable and great for working out. I wear my adidas track suit when l go out dancing and can move freely in it. I love it! ... read more
They're snug, but keep the bits from bouncing too much. No butt-crack-oriented sweat marks (come off it; it happens to everyone and you know it); and for those of us who refuse to wear a silly looking iPod armband, the pockets zip well; so you needn't worry about your keys/phone/ipod/whatever bouncing out. Also, they're not bad on a day where it's cold out. Above all, they look good and fit comfortably. I'd recommend them. ... read more
Great pants. Bad sizing. I have the Condivo 14 and tiro 15 and they're great. I'm 6ft 0in and I wear a medium, which is great fitting, but the waist for the Condivo 16 is tighter and feels straining. It doesn't stretch like the previous editions. I tried going up one size but the legs are too big and the waist is good which isn't good. ... read more
I bought the red superstar jacket for black friday and i absolutely love it! I am 5'2 and i wear a size small. I bought a large and it fits perfect! If you're ordering this for yourself and not a kid, i recommend go 2 sizes up. ... read more
I got these pants as a gift and they are about 5 inches shorter than what the online size chart says they should be. They show about 4 inches of my ankle. I'm going to try to exchange them to see if it was a fluke, but be sure to try them on before you buy them! ... read more
I like running in the morning so I can still get stuff done during the day, this jacket keeps me warm but not overheating. It's super comfortable and great quality for what you pay. The only complaint I have is that I am a pretty small girl, so a small is not as form fitting as I would like it to be. This doesn't get in the way, it's just a personal preference so I would recommend you go into a store and get your size and not online. ... read more

Francesco Chiesa (Sagno 1871 - Lugano 1973) was an important Italian-speaking Swiss writer. He was born in Sagno, in the Canton of Ticino which, along with some of the valleys in the Grigioni Canton, is the only part of Switzerland where the Italian language and culture prevail. Once he had completed his compulsory schooling, he enrolled in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Pavia, although he changed disciplines almost immediately and graduated in Law in 1894. On returning to Switzerland, he worked as a clerk at the court in Lugano for a few years. In 1895 he founded a periodical entitled Idea Modern, followed two years later by La Piccola Rivista Ticinese (The Little Magazine from Ticino) in which, …

A famous animal enthusiast who recently was pronounced dead. He was killed by a stingray when it pierced his chest
Rest in peace Steve Irwin.
de MasterStaples 03 Septembrie 2006
You people might want to do something about the chips on your shoulders. Good grief only neanderthals assume that because a person of a certain nationality talks in a certain way or does something to a certain animal then everyone else does it. Steve Irwin has just died numbnuts. He was a bloody legend in every sense of the word, who had a great passion for his promotion of the Australian environment and wildlife. I was shocked to read of his death this afternoon so will you flaming chip-on-the-shoulder ridden clowns do something good for yourselves and knock them off?
RIP Steve
RIP Steve

Bryce Harper has dazzled scouts and fans alike already this spring, showing incredible power, exciting speed, and all-out hustle.
Ask Nationals manager Davey Johnson and he'll tell you Harper simply doesn't get tired.
Try and try as he may, though, it's very unlikely that Harper travels north with the Nationals when spring training ends, for the simple fact that he might benefit from some additional time spent down in the minors working on a few things. Plate patience for one. Base-running for another. And don't forget that the Nationals have a $100 million man blocking him in right field.
Harper isn't the only prospect star that won't be heading north with his respective squad, though.
Let's see who will join him back in the minors to start the 2012 season.

No quarrel with Tata: Trinamool Congress
By IANS - KOLKATA

Last Updated: 17th December 2012 07:54 PM
With outgoing Tata Group chairman
Ratan Tata saying Singur was a 'great disappointment' and
hinting the Group might still go to West Bengal, a key adviser
of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said 'no quarrel with
"We do not have any quarrel with Ratan Tata or anyone else," Saugato Roy who looks after industry and Information technology as an adviser to the state government told PTI here.
"The land for the Tata Motors project was acquired forcibly. We are opposed to the form of acquisition of land," he said.
"There are many farmers who have not taken the compensation cheque. The first priority of our government is to return the land to the unwilling farmers, Roy, a senior TMC Lok Sabha member and a former union minister, said.
"So it is up to Ratan Tata whether he will return the land to the unwilling farmers through out of court. And, if he does, he can set up industry in the remaining 600 acre," Roy said.
In an interview to PTI Tata had said, "Need not be Tata Motors. We have until the court decides this, the plant is still there. Whether it is Tata Motors or something else."
The Calcutta High Court on June 22, 2012 had said the Singur Land Rehabilitation and Development Act, 2011, was unconstitutional and invalid.
The state government had moved an appeal before the Supreme Court which stayed the high court order till further direction.

Snowbird Chutes
I'm heading to snowbird at the beginning of March and was wondering which chutes are more manageable (and wider) and which to avoid. I am an advanced snowboarder but would like to ease my way into chute riding.
Also definitely plan to spend a lot of time in mineral basin, any other must hit or favorite trails on the mountain?

The Yankees aren't known for bringing up prospects from their farm system mid-season to help aid the team.
They are more apt to trade for a veteran or stick with what they have. That said the most likely scenario for any of the following prospects is to hope to get their licks in September.
It could be a spot start in May, a relief appearance in the July, or an at-bat in late September but the list that follows is the most likely of the Yankees prospects to find their way to the Bronx this season.

My brush with Team Spielberg
I am at the bottom of the Hollywood food chain, to say the least. Whenever I deal with film industry types I feel like a strung out Dennis Hopper rambling about Marlon Brando's tribal leader in "Apocalypse, Now": "I'm a little man, I'm a little man. He's a great man!"
But when and if Steven Spielberg thanks all "the little people" in an Oscar acceptance speech tonight, I know he will be talking to me. Every year he is nominated and every year, right around the holidays, I get a note from him thanking me for my support. »Read Full Blog Post

MAM founding works
Before the Calatrava, before the Kahler, before the War Memorial Center, there was the Layton Art Gallery. And without Frederick Layton and the gallery, we wouldn't have the others. The Milwaukee Art Museum, 700 N. Art Museum Drive, which is rooted by the Layton collection, is paying tribute to the man and his gallery with a 125th anniversary exhibition. In the Gallery 10 and the Decorative Arts Gallery, MAM will display the works upon which the museum was founded. And the Baumgartner Galleria will display items that illustrate the history of MAM. Sunday at 2 p.m. in the Lubar Auditorium, guest lecturer Giles Waterfield will discuss "The Role of Private Patrons" in Layton's development of his collection. The lecture is free with general admission. »Read Full Article

Love brings hope to Next Act Theatre's 'Grace'
When the lights come up on Craig Wright's "Grace" - now at Next Act Theatre, under David Cecsarini's direction - a man is holding a gun to his head, having just murdered the woman and man sprawled nearby. We can guess what happened with this love triangle. But how? And why?
With the whodunit out of the way, "Grace" tries to answer those questions by taking us back three months and starting over. During the ensuing two hours, we'll move forward in time toward that climactic scene with which the play began. »Read Full Article

Yasmani Grandal expected to report to the T-Pads on Friday to began assignment.
For further reading on the Tucson Padres please see the Arizona Daily Star
San Antonio Missions 8 – Corpus Christi Hooks 10
Key Statistics RHP Matt Andriese 4 IP, 10 H, 8 R, 3 ER, 0 BB, 4 K (L, 5-1); RF Rico Noel 2-5, RBI; C Eddy Rodriguez 3-5, 2B, 2 RS, 2 RBI
Prospect Watch: Tough second inning for Matt Andriese. Andriese loaded the bases with one out on groundball singles. Andriese got his groundball that should have ended the inning, but an error by second baseman Adam Buscini gave the Hooks their first run. After a pop up the flood gates opened thanks to another error. In all six runs were scored. Andriese never seemed to regain his composure as he picked his first loss of the year.
For further reading on the San Antonio Missions please see the San Antonio Express-News.
Modesto Nuts 9 – Lake Elsinore Storm 5
Key Statistics SS Jace Peterson 2-4, 2 2B, RS; CF Travis Jankowski 2-3, RS, 2 RBI, BB, 3 SB (18); C Robert Kral 1-4, HR (8), RBI.
Prospect Watch: After spending most of the last two weeks talking about how great 2B Cory Spangenberg has been doing… the tide turned quickly. Spangenberg went 0-5 tonight with 4 strikeouts, and is now 2 for his last 18… With Austin Hedges still on the DL Robert Kral has been making the most of his time playing every day. The 24 year old catching prospect is now leading the team in HR (8), BA (.342), OBP (.464), and SLG (.759). He is also one behind Jankowski in both walks (18) and runs (22).
For further reading on the Storm please see the Southwest Riverside News Network.
Bowling Green Hot Rods 0 – Fort Wayne TinCaps 3
Key Statistics LHP Max Fried 6 IP, 4 H, 0 ER, 1 BB, 4 K (W, 2-0); DH Mallex Smith 2-4, 2B; LF Jeremy Baltz 2-4, HR (5), 2 RBI; C Rodney Daal 1-2, 2B, RBI, BB
Prospect Watch: Last outing Max Fried and company tossed a no-hitter. This time they had to settle for a shutout win against first place Bowling Green. Fried now has a 14 inning scoreless streak and in the process has lowered his ERA to 2.35. Fried also leads the TinCaps in strikeouts with 35… Speaking of scoreless streaks Roman Madrid has now gone 17.2 innings to start the season without allowing an earned run. Madrid collected his seventh save to go along with a 4-0 record... The difference in the game came in the sixth when power hitting third baseman Gabriel Quintana laid down an unexpected bunt for a single. Baltz then came up and crushed a ball to left to give the TinCaps a 2-0 lead they would never give up.
For further reading on the TinCaps' please see the Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette.

Richard M. Eaton, Univ. of Arizona
Phillip B. Wagoner, Wesleyan Univ.
Power, Memory, Architecture: Contested Sites on India's Deccan Plateau, 1300–1600 (Oxford Univ. Press)
Eaton and Wagoner analyze the built landscape of the Deccan plateau during a period of intense political conflict, showing how the meanings of that landscape were contested and mobilized by succeeding rulers, who drew on both Sanskrit and Persianate cosmologies. Deploying an innovative, multi-disciplinary methodology, shaped as much by on-the-ground analysis of historical remains as by the study of Sanskrit, Persian, and Telugu texts, their book provides critical new insights on the history of this era.

Beginning last June and through free agency, the regular season, and all the way to the end of Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals the Lightning gave its fans plenty of excitement.
It's a good thing, because there's a boring offseason ahead. Prepare yourself accordingly.
Last year the Bolts were swinging deals and signing free agents to shore up their defense (Garrison, Stralman), bottom six forwards (Boyle, Morrow), and backup goalie (Nabokov).
There aren't many needs for the Eastern Conference champs now, though there are some areas in need of improvement.

Since this may be LacroixŌoÖo last appearance, I thought it was only fitting that Dior purses for cheap he went first. His collection was based mostly on fabrics and other materials that he already had in his atelier, which mostly resulted in looks far more restrained and widely understandable than average for the haute couture master.

The bright spot of hope was the small collectionŌoÖo final Dior Handbags look Ōo?an intricate wedding dress worthy of the Virgin Mary rendered in stained glass. It was so thoroughly and classically Lacroix that it almost reasserted that the man intended to soldier on and make beautiful clothing.Chanel
I suspect that I may have been dior handbags online the only one that felt this way, but I just wasnŌoÖo feeling the majority of ChanelŌośo collection. Sure, the 60+ look presentation was chock full of beautiful clothes; some of them were even breathtaking. And I know itŌoÖo a Chanel staple and part of the dior outlet brandŌoÖo history, but I just donŌoÖo care to see more than a dozen versions of a wool skirt suit when I tune in to see Haute Couture. I want drama, I want a challenge, I want something I canŌoÖo wear to the office. As the presentation dior bags went on, things picked up nicely, but front-loading the suits made me feel like I had to wait quite dior handbags sale a while before anything dramatic came along. And when it did, it was standard Chanel couture Ōo?lots of white, ivory, black and silver in looks that were thoroughly French and thoroughly intricate. Lace and beading abounded; I only wish that we could have skipped the suits and gone straight from the fabulous.

And please drop the RBIs. Your player evaluation is laughable.

Again when evaluating a pitcher you use a number of stats and one of them is their W/L record. How many pitchers with losing W/L have won the Cy Young award? Why is the total number of Wins by a pitcher a KEY stat in making the Hall of Fame? IF 300 wins to get into the HOF isn't so important then why is it continually one of the reasons given on those pitchers not in?
Johnny fan, you are confusing team goals with individual accomplishments. It seems to me you are one of these guys who hates 'new age stats' and 'sabr nerds' and want things to be how they were in the past. The times are a changing my friend. Get on the train or be left behind, your choice.

Sacha Baron Cohen May Reteam with Borat/Bruno Director Larry Charles on 'The Dictator'
Posted on Tuesday, November 16th, 2010 by Russ Fischer
We've heard some back and forth about whether Sacha Baron Cohen might do another film with his Borat and Bruno director Larry Charles. (Who, it should be remembered, stepped in to direct Borat when Todd Phillips dropped out after shooting some of the movie.) We'd heard that Mr. Charles might not direct The Dictator, which Sacha Baron Cohen is prepping now. But a new report contradicts earlier info, and it looks like we might have a loose trilogy of films from the duo. Read More »

Expert on Syrian refugee crisis to keynote 16th annual International Education Week, Nov. 15-18Thursday, November 12, 2015
The Syrian civil war has produced one of the largest refugee flows since World War II; over four million Syrians have fled the country, and nearly twice that number are internally displaced. Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq are hosting the vast majority of the Syrian refugees, but tens of thousands of Syrians are moving into Europe seeking asylum.
Perhaps no one is better prepared to help sift through the crisis than Rochelle Davis, an associate professor of cultural anthropology, director of Georgetown University's master's program in Arab studies, and this year's Ivan and Janice Stone Lecturer at Beloit College. Davis has spent her academic career studying refugees. Her most recent work looks at currently displaced Syrians and the Iraqi refugees who fled to Jordan and Syria in 2005. Her lecture is titled, "The Syrian Refugee Crisis: Changing the Narrative."

The Big Ten Conference is the deepest conference in America with five teams making the Top 25 and three teams earning top-five spots in both the AP and USA Today Polls.
Don't get me wrong, the Big East Conference is a close second with teams like No. 2 ranked Louisville and No. 9 ranked Syracuse holding their own in the Top 10.
ESPN.com's Joe Lunardi put out his recent preseason Bracketology and has the Big Ten and Big East each having seven teams make the tournament.
I could even see Iowa or Northwestern being the eighth team from the conference to make the tournament.
This could be the year where you see three Big Ten teams make it to the Elite Eight, which hasn't happened since 2005.
Every week from now until the end of the season I will be writing the Big Ten Power Rankings.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. If you didn't celebrate, I can only assume you don't live in America :P But, I still wish the sentiment upon you. Also, happy new year!
A couple of weeks ago I got a Kinect! I am late to the novelty that is motion gaming, I know. This is part because I am a total cheapskate and half because I thought it was stupid. I warmed up to it a little more when my brother let me play Just Dance with him and his family on the Wii. I either wanted a Wii or Kinect so I could play this game uninhibited in the comfort of my own room.
How long has this game been out? Awhile, right? So, I've wanted to dance in a video game for months, but never wanted to shell out the money on a console or an expensive peripheral. But, I've been going to these midnight launch events at the Microsoft Store and for each one I attended I received a $25 gift card. I also got a $50 gift card for placing in a Call of Duty tournament. Since I went to four events, I had a $150 gift card to blow in the store. I'm still amazed that Bill Gates is this wealthy that he can just pay people to attend midnight launches, feed them pizza and give them video game swag. So awesome. Anyway, with my riches, I got a Kinect, Dance Central 2, 12 months of XBL and 1600 MS points. My total was $183, only like $30 out of my own pocket. You can't beat that with a bat!
Kinect is really fun! My family has gotten a kick out of it. I also got Just Dance 3 for Christmas, so our day was spent playing that. My nephew is obsessed with anything related to Halloween, so we all danced to "This is Halloween." My brother also punched out a ceiling fan's light bulb while we played Kinect Adventures. Who would've thought this peripheral would involve the breaking of household light fixtures? Pretty awesome! I'm still trying to get used to the voice commands and haven't really utilized them too much. Maneuvering through the new updated dashboard menu is annoying enough with a controller, so not even gonna try to navigate through motion sensor. All in all, happy spending my $30 on this little gadget. I recently got an achievement for dancing between the hours of 12am-4am, I am an animal. Hoping the appeal of it lasts.
I have so many games that I still need to beat and unfortunately, there's still all that grinding I gotta do in CoD that occupies my time. That old broken record. I recently got Little Big Planet 2, Uncharted 3 and Skyrim. I'm still borrowing AssCreeBroHood. So, that's the priority on my list, then U3 and then either LBP2 or Skyrim. I'm super happy for LBP2 because I had bought it earlier in the year, but a few days before it shipped, I was broke and had to cancel my Amazon preorder. Now, a year later, it's in my possession. I know it'll take awhile to do everything in both LBP2 and Skyrim, so I'm saving those for last. I'm also just intimidated to play Skyrim! I am a Mafioso in the Fallout universe and if this plays similarly, then I'll do well in this game. But, it seems like it'll be more difficult. Magic…spells…that sounds way more RPG-y than I am comfortable with. It's already giving me a nosebleed. I'm worried I'm too much of a big, dumb animal to understand all the concepts in this game. I'm not usually an RPG player and this will be my first Elder Scrolls. I tried Oblivion and was truly humbled, which doesn't happen a lot to me in video games. I couldn't even get passed some rats in the dungeon! Ugh… I hope I'm able to understand Skyrim because ever since I recently discovered my love for Fallout (last Xmas) I've been wanting to play things that are similar and just get lost in their environments. We shall see if that happens.

see people the wii is awsome and fun. It hurts to see people put it down saying " wii my ass" , "I dont care about wii it sucks, im gonna play resistance"
, and other bull. but the wii has potential and if used right it can be fun. but if the safety of others and items is not put first then it can result in flat screen tv's getting ruined, projectors getting ripped, and closets doors getting a personal clobbering time by a wii mote. so remember people safety comes first.

Aqueduct: Saginaw aimed at Hollie Hughes
OZONE PARK, N.Y. - Saginaw, who won 10 races from 14 starts in 2012, could make his 2013 debut next weekend in either the $75,000 Scythe Stakes on Feb. 17 or the $75,000 Hollie Hughes Stakes for New York-breds on Feb. 18, trainer David Jacobson said Thursday.
"I'm aiming for the Hollie Hughes," Jacobson said.
Saginaw, a 7-year-old gelding by Peruvian, won six stakes in 2012, including the Gravesend on Dec. 15. His bid to become the horse with the most wins in North American in 2012 went awry when he was third, beaten 12 3/4 lengths by Saratoga Snacks in the Alex M. Robb on Dec. 26.
After a brief freshening, Saginaw has put in two slow three-furlong breezes on Jan. 29 and Feb. 2 over Aqueduct's inner track.
"He's come back good so far," Jacobson said. "He's eating up every oat, giving the exercise rider a hard time which is what he's notorious for."

|Brandi Carlile singles chronology
|"The Story"
|Song by Sara Ramirez from the album Grey's Anatomy: The Music Event
|March 31, 2011
"The Story" is a song released as a single by American folk rock singer Brandi Carlile, written by Phil Hanseroth, from her 2007 album The Story. It was featured in Grey's Anatomy in 2007 and is on Grey's Anatomy Soundtrack album 3 (released September 11).
About four years later, a version of the song has been recorded by Grey's Anatomy actress Sara Ramirez and was first presented in the 2011 episode "Song Beneath the Song".
Composition and recording
"The Story" was written by Phil Hanseroth, who also plays bass in Carlile's band.[1] It has a 16-bar melody.[1] It was recorded in Vancouver, Canada and produced by T-Bone Burnett.
Release and promotion
"The Story" was released as a single in 2007. It was iTunes' Download of the Week in March 2007.[2] Carlile has performed the song live on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Night with Conan O'Brien and The Early Show.[3]
Along with other songs by Carlile, "The Story" received exposure to a wider audience by being played on the soundtrack to medical drama series Grey's Anatomy. The song, and parts of the video, appeared in 2007 in a special recap episode titled "Every Moment Counts".[2] The song was also used in a General Motors commercial that aired during television coverage of the 2008 Summer Olympics.[4] "The Story" has become the most popular song from Carlile's album.[1]
Chart performance and reception
In the United States Brandi Carlile's "The Story" reached No. 75 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, as well as No. 35 on the Adult Pop Songs chart and No. 48 on the Digital Songs chart.[2][5] The song peaked at No. 44 on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart, No. 3 on the Norwegian VG-lista chart, No. 16 on the Swiss singles chart and No. 38 on the Ö3 Austria Top 40 chart.[6][7][8][9]
Tom Scanlon of The Seattle Times describes a live performance of "The Story" as "stunning" and "spine-chilling". He notes the transition within the song between acoustic pop-rock and "scream-singing" that resembles Janis Joplin.[3] A writer for Indianapolis Monthly also draws a comparison between Carlile's vocals and those of Joplin.[10]

Sara Ramirez version
In 2011, "The Story" was again featured in an episode of Grey's Anatomy. The series 7 episode "Song Beneath the Song" was a special musical episode that included renditions of popular songs performed by the show's characters. In the episode Sara Ramirez, in the role of Callie Torres, sings "The Story".[20] Ramirez' version of the song was included as a track on her 2011 extended play, Sara Ramirez and the 2011 album Grey's Anatomy: The Music Event.
LeAnn Rimes version
Country music artist LeAnn Rimes released her version of the song on 24 June 2016 in the UK. It is the first single from her studio album Remnants, to be released in October, and the first under her new label RCA UK. The song was written by Phil Hanseroth and first recorded by Brandi Carlile. Rimes promoted the track in the UK on BBC 1 The One Show and at London's LGBT venue 'Heaven', but the track did not enter any UK commercial charts.
Rimes has indicated that she feels a strong connection with the track. In an interview with Billboard, she said "I fully embrace the journey I am on and have a deeper understanding of how every piece of my story serves a purpose in my evolution as a woman and an artist,This song is not only a love song but a song of self-acceptance and appreciation for life."[21]
A music video was released following the single's release date. [22]

Maxwell School receives $1 million Carnegie Grant
The Carnegie Corporation of New York has named Syracuse University's Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs as one of five institutional recipients of $1 million, two-year grants through its initiative "Rigor and Relevance: Bridging the Academic-Policy Gap." With this funding, the Maxwell School will create the "Carnegie International Policy Scholars Consortium and Network," which will bring together faculty from a number of top international relations graduate programs to teach and mentor students, scholars, and policymakers about ways to prepare graduate students for successful careers in both policymaking and academia – and thus to foster enhanced interaction between the two communities. This new grant will be managed through the Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs at the Maxwell School, and will be co-led by Steinberg; Margaret Hermann, Gerald and Daphna Cramer Professor of Global Affairs and Director of the Moynihan Institute; and Francis J. Gavin, Frank Stanton Chair in Nuclear Security Policy Studies and Professor of Political Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Read more. .
The Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs is hosting what promises to be an inside look at the region, the crises and the foreign policy strategies in the Middle East!
Mehrzad Boroujerdi, Chair of the Political Science Department at Syracuse University, describes Dr. Gordon as one of the most astute analyst of Middle Eastern affairs. "He has not been afraid to think outside the box. For example, he has argued that the U.S. should rethink its position that President Assad must step down. Gordon's voice is one that needs to be heard as the U.S. government confronts a multitude of crisis from Afghanistan to Libya."

Gregg Allman bares his soul
The Allman Brothers Band will convene in August for a handful of shows, which leaves Gregg Allman free to do shows with his solo band.
The 65-year-old singer-keyboardist has a rich catalog to draw upon. His first solo album in 14 years, it's a typically soulful collection of mostly obscure blues covers produced by T-Bone Burnett.
Allman is also proud of his 2012 memoir, "My Cross to Bear," which reflects on the formation on the Allmans, who lost brother Duane in 1971, and the highs and lows of his life and career since then.
Q. You're 65 now, but you must have been like a young pup in that late-'60s music scene.
A. Yeah, I was always the youngest in the band. I graduated from high school in '65, and by '69 the Brothers had started. So during the time in between there we played the chitlin circuit -- you know, clubs, roadhouses. I was like 18, 19.
Q. How did you have such a feel for blues and soul at that young age?
A. I don't know, man. It almost seemed like it was in me and all it needed was some catalyst to spark it off. I used to listen to WLAC radio at night. They introduced me to Howlin' Wolf, Sonny Boy Williamson, Lightnin' Hopkins, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon -- all of them. The last show was (deejay) Herman Grizzard. He was into blues, but leaned a little bit toward jazz, and every now and then he'd play this music from a guy named Jimmy Smith, and I thought, "What in the world is making that sound?" And it turned out to be a Hammond B-3 organ.
Q. You were this blond white kid. Did you feel like "How am I going to imitate these guys?"
A. (Laughs) "How" never entered into it. I'm gonna imitate these guys. Then, finally, you find your own voice, and that took many years.
Q. You have played with four guys on the Rolling Stone list of greatest guitarists. Duane was No. 2. What made Duane so great? And did Hendrix deserve that top slot?
A. I don't know, man. To me, they're all different. They're all the best. It's like apples and oranges. I'm partial to my brother because I grew up with him. I mean, every lick I ever learned was with him. Hendrix? They all were just lightning.
Q. You went 14 years without doing a solo album. What brought you back to it for "Low Country Blues"?
A. Probably T-Bone Burnett. Tommy Dowd died in '02. We were scheduled to cut something around that time, and then after he died, I just thought, "Man, breaking in another producer ..." Tommy Dowd was like a father figure to me. He taught me more about music than any other one person did. I don't know. It just seemed like a sacrilege to go and record with someone else until I met T-Bone Burnett, and he's like Tommy Dowd reincarnate.
Q. How did you come to write "My Cross to Bear," and why was it important to you to tell those stories?
A. All it was supposed to be was a journal that I kept. I started it in about 1981. I figured if I get to be an 80-year-old on a rocking chair on the porch, I can thumb through the pages and relive it. That's as far as it went. So, I started writing it, and I wrote about four or five chapters. It got to be a time-consuming thing pushing that pencil so much. So then I just recorded it. I had this partner and he'd set up his recording stuff. He came over every Thursday, and we'd sit upstairs and yak.
Q. Was it emotional for you to go back over that?
A. Not too bad, because I leaned on the happy stuff, the funny stuff. Those other books that came out on us, "Midnight Rider" and "Skydog," that's just about six dudes going around the country sowing their wild oats. But there was a lot more to it than that. I tried to keep on the real good, happy stuff, because, of course, we had some hardships, deaths in the family, deaths in the band. But we also had a blast, man, you understand. I wouldn't trade this life for nothing.

Latest update September 25th, 2016 12:55 AM
ESPNcricinfo– Shivnarine Chanderpaul, the West Indies batsman, is expected to play in the third Test against India, despite an injured calf muscle. Chanderpaul had missed West Indies' practice session in Mumbai on Sunday, but he should be fit for the Test that begins at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday, according to media manager Philip Spooner.
"He [Chanderpaul] has taken a break from practice today to rest his calf muscle that he strained in Kolkata," Spooner told PTI. "But he should be able to play in the Test here." Chanderpaul had sustained the injury during the second Test in Kolkata last week.
If Chanderpaul does not play the pressure would pile on West Indies' young crop of batsmen. Chanderpaul has played 133 Tests, while the rest of the West Indies team aggregates 139 matches. Kirk Edwards, one of West Indies' young top-order batsmen who scored a dogged half-century in the second innings in Kolkata, said the side is in good spirits going into the Mumbai Test.
"Of course, we will be going into this Test match with confidence," Edwards said. "I think we were pretty confident as a team even before the second innings [in Kolkata]." West Indies had offered stiff resistance in the second innings, piling up 463, after being bowled out for 153 in their first attempt and made to follow on. West Indies go into the Mumbai Test trailing 2-0 in the three-match series.
Edwards has scored two hundreds in five Tests, with a century on debut against India in Dominica in July this year. He is still working on learning all he can at the highest level, he said. "You have to try to understand how the pitches play and try to adjust your game. That's what I am doing, [I'm] in the process of learning. Every time I go out to bat, I try to lay a solid platform for my team."
Playing against India's senior batsmen and observing them from close quarters is helping that learning process, Edwards said. "Sometimes, I find myself focusing on him [Sachin Tendulkar] so much that I am not focusing on my fielding. I admire [Rahul] Dravid and [VVS] Laxman too. I admire a majority of those guys, but playing a game with Sachin was something special."

(I know this is not ep1 record even it's fastest)
Demo name's number 190 means it was 190th demo where I made it past the ep1. Total of 408 failed demos past the EP1 plus some legacy attempts.
