"Funny, but..."
Mitch is a funny guy, but if you've ever seen him on tv, heard him on the radio (XM, Sirius), or listened one of his comedy CD's then you pretty much already know all of his jokes. He went for just over an hour, but a little less than halfway through, I could already tell he wasn't going to have any new material so that was a little bit of a letdown. It seemed pretty dated maybe a couple of years old. But it was still a pretty decent & inexpensive show for a Sunday night and we had a good time.
There was really no opening act per se, though you could technically count the emcee who did his own material for roughly 25 minutes. Only problem - I'd seen him emcee for someone else before so I knew every one of his jokes too! So the total show was an hour and a half which is about 20-30 minutes less than normal. But like I said we still had a good time.
About the venue, I like Brea Improv a little better than the Irvine one. The crowd is a bit more laid back and loose and it's a little less crowded / trendy. I think they moved this club since it seems to be in a different location than I remembered going to years ago, but it is definitely bigger too which is not bad, and had good sound. And of course don't forget the 2 drink (item... whatever) per person when you're figuring in the cost of your evening. If you've already eaten out and hadn't planned on it, then this could be a bummer for you.

Mitch always has funny material and he once again has succeeded in putting on a good show.
Is that a sparkle in his eye or is he just confused? With his innocence and friendly demeanor, Mitch Fatel quickly engages the audience and then catches them off-guard with his mixture of mischievous dialog and off-color comments. While laughing at observations only Mitch can get away with, audiences we are left wondering if he truly understands what he just said!
Mitch has been showcasing his talent to rave reviews for the past 15 years. Since then, appreciative audiences and comedy executives have made the same observation about Mitch's rise to stardom: "It's just a matter of time." Well, his time has come. After numerous spots on both the Late Show with David Letterman and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," Mitch is quickly establishing himself as a comedic star. He is also one of the few comedians to have ever appeared on Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist twice. The Hollywood Reporter named Mitch as one of its best bets for future fame. Mitch is one of the most requested comedians on Sirius and XM satellite radio.
In 2006 he took home honors as "Best Comedian" at the prestigious HBO Aspen Comedy Festival and in April of 2007 his half-hour stand up special debuted on Comedy Central and was ranked #6 all time by viewers. Mitch's' DVD Magical debuted in September 2009. Catch this innovative comedian, clearly about to make the jump to bona fide superstar, while you still can.

Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley need to have huge years if the Detroit Lions want to have success in 2012, and the Lions have reportedly installed a new package that will help allow them to do just that.
Their main job will be to try to cause havoc on the interior of the defensive line, but according to Brad Gali of WXYZ.com, defensive coordinator Gunther Cunningham is planning on putting the two D-linemen at end from time to time:
He plans to occasionally move defensive tackles Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley to the outside of the defensive line. The move will give defenses a different, much more powerful look up front.
According to Cunningham, via Gali's report, the package is going to be called "Grey":
I call it Grey. There's a great movie out called "(The) Grey." If you watch it, you'll know what I mean.
This is a brilliant decision by Cunningham, and it's going to pay huge dividends for the Lions once the season begins.
It all starts and ends with the pressure up front.
Your Thoughts On The "Grey" Package?
What you don't see a lot of is an end who can get out there and just overpower the tackle—except for a few of the elites—but that's exactly what Suh and Fairley would be able to do in this defensive package.
They'll be able to use their strength and size to push the line of scrimmage backward, and as big as they are, they still do possess enough speed to get after the quarterback from the edges.
With the power rush coming from the outside and the speed from the interior, this creates a whole new set of problems for offensive linemen, and even more for the quarterback.
The Lions' success in 2012 is going to really hinge on the play of the defensive line, and the play of the defensive line hinges on Suh and Fairley.
Moving them around the line and utilizing them at end is a great decision by Cunningham, and I expect the "Grey" package will be very effective.

Access denied. If it almost tore up the CPW, it could tear up the CPFW.
I would highly reccomend not doing that!!
RE: RE: Top Agents (Please don't!!)
I still say no, unfortunately. Though it is fanon, it's hard to keep track of what goes on it. We'd need tons of new administrators to manage it all.
A lot of people take it too far.
Please remember Crisis I. Top Agents was one of the items that stirred AgentGenius to evil.

a couple ideas
I tried to talk to both webmasters but they don't seem to check their talk page. I'm hoping you do. Here what I told them:
I was looking through all the laws and I saw a couple I didn't agree with. To make it so these laws are not just chosen by one person, how about we have a vote on which laws to keep with laws to trash and any new laws. It would be more fair this way but it's only a suggestion.
Another thing I was thinking of is allowing only registered users to edit. It would cut down on vandalisim and un-needed, un-encyclopedia-like edits. Please get back to me.--Fix-it 01:14, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
Because you were just on and I wanted the quickest reply. However, do you think you can tell me where the laws were voted on and where Wikia said they agree with them. Also what do you think of my other idea.--Fix-it 05:36, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
Why did you have to delete the Beacon Telescope before washing out all my hard work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I can't get all that information that took me HOURS TO WRITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You could of ATLEAST given me all the stuff I wrote before deleting it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY VERSION OF THE TELESCOPE IS BETTER THAN THE OTHER PAGE. Either delete that page and retrieve all my hard-work back and put it on there, or just send my hard work to me by email and i'll add it to the normal page!!!!!!! grrrrrrrrrr im sooooo angry!!!! All my hard work, gone :'(
First off I would like to tell you that I was not bossing anyone around I was telling him to try not to make that mistake again
Second, it is hypocritical for you to tell me off for getting angry after I was unfairly blocked. You were once unfairly blocked and you got angry. So please, don't be a hypocrite.
Third, I have no idea what you are talking about "silly" ideas
Fourth, please don't not get so worked up. I was never rude to Yowuza.

6. Are you still going to be there?
7. Is it my fault, like most quittings are?
8. Will you come back per Webmaster Request?
9. Will you talk to God (in the case that you Believe)? I think your a Christian, but only God knows. I never really read your categories.
10. Are you sure this is what you want?
11. Do you regret quitting?
12. Does this make you regret quitting?
13. Will you buy more Penghis Khans?

Quite a few wikis have a project called Vandal Watch. They have it incase anyone does vandalise the pages of their wiki. But I think us, the CPW should really have one. We have had a few attacks, so this could be really useful in catching the hooligans. I have already made one, under the name page of User:Tigernose/Vandalwatch, so if you wish to make one, click on my link, copy & paste the stuff, and customize if you want. Also, one more thing: Could you add a color-coded system on your vandal watch, and rate the threat of the users. If they did minor vandalism, put them on a specific colour. If they do even more, they go up colours, and so on. But, of course, you may not even consider Vandal Watch and scrap it. I don't mind, since you are on of the beauracrats, but tell me if it's a bad idea, and pretend I never said any of this.

Re:Vandal Watch
Yeah, I'm also sending to all of the senior sysops. A project page would be good. Infact I have got an even better idea:
- A public vandal watch, under a project mainspace, and also the beauracrats & senior sysops (Or even everyone) have a subpage vandal watch. That means a public one, and tons of ones in the subpages. Hopes this changes the wiki, since we have been under attack quite a lot of times. I have sent that message to every bearu/senior sysop apart from TS. I'll send it to him now. Thanks for your support, but we'll need more support and permission from the Beauracrats.
P.S Is there a difference between webmaster and beauracrat or senior and sysop, or are they just same rights but higher priority? --TiG3rn0se Talk Penguin at my resort!Have a look at what I've done! 20:35, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Ivanovsson, where is he?
Hi, my name is Joev14, and I'm the owner of the exo-force wiki, and I am trying to find the original creator, Ivanovsson, I've noticed that you seem to b one of his major freinds, and I'm wondering if you have any contact with him, I really need his help with the wiki, and I was hoping if you could give me some contact information, or contact him for me, and tell him that I need him back at my wiki, if you have any information on this, please leave a message for me on my talk page on my exo-force wiki, here> http://exo-force.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Joev14

Hi Hapypface,
Listen, i do not want problems with the wikis. In a short period of time, after 2 years, many admins and ussers came back- all editing in the new wiki.
I know you are worried because we made a twitter account, and gained popularity, but it's not a reason to fight. The both wikis are good, and no one needs to tell you that the new wiki is great.
However, if you start disturbing our activity in order to harm the wiki, or whatever it is, this behaviour is not acceptible.
There is some sort of competetion between the wikis- we all love editing and would like to write about the hhistory of cp- but, if we start fighting, we won't go anywhere- and it is only sources consuming, so please, if you came to make us fight, please leave, but remembr us as the community of the old wiki, and not as enemies- as we wouldn't like to fight at all, and be glad to still have goot relations with the new wiki's community.
I hope you understand what i'm saying in this message. Have a nice day, happy editing (mostly in the new wiki, i suppose), and Waddle On!

GRANBY – An unexpected group of about 20 members of the school community filled the little library where the Granby School Committee was holding its March meeting last week, leaving standing room only.
Superintendent Isabelina Rodriguez was direct about what lies ahead for the 2013 budget.
"Unless we get more money from the state or the town," she told the School Committee and an audience that included viewers of Granby Community Television, "we are looking at having to cut $700,000."
The extra visitors did not speak during the meeting. Afterward they said they had not come to argue, but rather to learn what they could do to support the high standard of education in Granby.
"We want to make sure we're abreast of what's happening," said Kristen Naglieri, president of the Granby Education Association, a teachers' union.
Rodriguez inherited a budget gap when she was hired by the Granby schools a year ago. Since then, grants have decreased by $489,972 between 2009 and 20012, she told the School Committee.
It's not just Granby that's suffering. Federal stimulus grants of the past two years, such as the ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act) grants to prevent teacher layoffs, have run out.
Chapter 70 funding, the schools' main state source, is level rather than rising with costs. "Circuit Breaker" funding, which helps alleviate the high cost of educating "special" (disabled) students, is not enough, and schools are lobbying for full coverage.
Last year, said Rodriguez, Granby schools were able to plug the holes in the budget with "school choice" money. She was referring to a fund created from tuition that Granby gets whenever a student came to its schools from another district.
"Last year we used all our school choice reserves," said Rodriguez. Granby's school choice fund went from $1,466,485 to a projected $920,410.
Meanwhile, costs keep inching up. The budget for health services in the schools was $207,179 in 2012. For 2013, it's $214,234. Transportation, athletics, building and grounds maintenance have gone up.
Nobody's giving up, but everyone knows it's not going to be easy. "Bake sales won't do it," cracked a member of the School Committee.
Rodriguez said she will make recommendations for budget cuts at the committee meeting on April 2. "I'd like to finalize some definite cuts and I want a plan in place that we will put on our Web page," she said, referring to www.granbyschoolsma.org.
"Looking at the long term, it needs to be done. Otherwise we're going to be back in the same boat next year."
The School Committee meets on the first Monday of the month, though Rodriguez said it may meet more often.
Naglieri said her supporters will be there. "Granby has a very good school system," she said. "We want to work collaboratively to keep education strong here."

Dear National Baseball Media
Dear National Baseball Media ~
With all due respect, Astros fans and bloggers would like for you to shut up about the Astros. Quit writing, quit opining and quit tweeting. In particular, please shut up about the Astros payroll and how it's supposedly a slap in the face to The Integrity of the Game™.
Believe me when I tell you that Astros fans are well aware that the team lost 213 games over the last two seasons. We are painfully aware of that fact. We are also aware that the Astros will have the lowest payroll in, gasp, all of Major League Baseball. And you have done an admirable job hammering home ad naseum the fact that Alex Rodriguez will make more in 2013 than the entire Astros 25-man roster. Got it. At least I haven't seen the hackneyed, tired and cliché "Houston, We've Got a Problem" headlines yet. (Seriously, it's time to retire that one and come up with something a tad bit more original.)
For those of us in Houston, those of us who follow the team re-build closely, this year's payroll is a non-issue. But for a few casual fans who don't understand the whole concept of a major re-build, no one has really even been talking about it. Until now. Now that national baseball pundits have started claiming that the Astros payroll will somehow compromise The Integrity of the Game™.
The most prominent naysayer was Peter Gammons who tweeted out that it is "Houston's plan to have no payroll, lose, get the 1-2 pick 4 years in a row and still steal revenue-sharing $." Buster Olney also piled on implying that the Astros were not even trying to win and comparing the team to Shoeless Joe Jackson and Pete Rose in how the team was damaging The Integrity of the Game™.
Anyone who believes that the Astros are planning to lose and not even trying to win has not met this man.
Bo Porter – February 2013
Photo by Jayne Hansen
Bo Porter, the new manager of the Astros, is an intense, driven man. He is a charismatic leader. He is a demanding task-master. He is an excellent teacher. In short, he is the perfect manager to inspire, motivate and get the absolute maximum effort from this team. Plain and simple, he will tolerate nothing less. I think this team will end up surprising a few people with their aggressive, hard-nosed style of play.
As to the payroll, are the Astros supposed to spend money just to spend money? That's exactly how you end up paying Carlos Lee almost $19,000,000 to hit a grand total of nine home runs while blocking the ability to fairly evaluate whether or not Brett Wallace will be a part of the team going forward. At this point in the re-building process, it is more important to evaluate prospects than it is to sign free agents to long-term, high dollar contracts. The vast majority of Astros fans understand that and agree with General Manager Jeff Luhnow's strategy of signing low-risk, high-reward one-year free agents. Until the team figures out what holes need to be filled from outside the organization in order to complement the talent coming up through the ranks, signing long-term (expensive) free agents could very well prove to be counter-productive, resulting in blocking prospects and tying up resources that would be better utilized in further building up the minor league system.
Let's look at a few of the free agent signings from the winter and why I'm glad they didn't sign with the Astros:
- Houston could have signed Shane Victorino to $13,000,000 a year for three years or Michael Bourn to an average of $12,000,000 over four years (and that's without even getting into the Josh Hamilton's and B.J. Upton's of the world). Instead they are signing Rick Ankiel to a modest, incentive-based one-year deal while they wait for George Springer and Domingo Santana to get more experience.
- Houston could have signed 32-year old Jeff Keppinger to an average of $4,000,000 a year for three years or could have given 37-year old Marco Scutaro $20,000,000 over three years. Instead they signed Ronny Cedeno to a one-year contract while Marwin Gonzales and Jonathan Villar get more experience, and are giving 23-year old Matt Dominguez the chance to be an everyday third baseman for the team. Dominguez has already shown Gold Glove caliber defense and appears to be on the cusp of breaking out with the bat as well.
- Houston could have signed Lance Berkman to DH for one year for $10,000,000. Or they could do what they're doing – add Carlos Pena at less than a third of that to establish a veteran presence and give Brett Wallace the opportunity to share the first base/DH duties with Pena. If Wallace can establish himself as a DH, he will be able to stick with the team when top prospect Jon Singleton joins the team later in the season.
- Houston could have signed 33-year old Jeremy Affeldt to $18,000,000 over three years. Instead they are signing 34-year old Erik Bedard to a fraction of that, hoping to catch lightening in a bottle while minor league lefties Dallas Keuchel, Brett Oberholtzer and Rudy Owens gain more experience.
- There were a number of huge free-agent contracts for right-handed pitching this year. Jeff Luhnow instead opted to go the low-risk, high-reward direction with Brad Peacock, Alex White and Phil Humber while we wait for Jordan Lyles, Jarred Cosart, Paul Clemens, Jose Cisnero and others to get more experience.
It's funny that, in looking at all the angst over payroll, it is the the Astros that are taking heat for ruining The Integrity of the Game™ by re-building the team efficiently, while the Yankees are given a free pass in the comparisons as if paying A-Rod $114,000,000 over the next five seasons is good for The Integrity of the Game™.
I truly believe that the Houston team will surprise a few people with their play this season. And while it looks to be another tough season for the team, it will be a valuable season in terms of evaluating and developing prospects. In any event, when all is said and done, the Astros and their fans will have the last laugh. With players like Jon Singleton, Delino DeShields, Carlos Correa, Domingo Santana, George Springer, Lance McCullers, Rio Ruiz, Mike Foltynewicz, Jarred Cosart, Nick Tropeano and Jonathan Villar on their way, Houston is poised to field a strong team of home-grown prospects for many years to come. And that, my friends, is very good for The Integrity of the Game™.

I would like to know where the people worried about The Integrity of the Game were when we were forced to move to the American League.
We completely agree with you. The Astros have some excellent baseball people in place, namely Bo Porter and Quinton McCracken (Director of Player Development). They will right the ship.

Participants, providers sought for new transportation program
San Juan County is starting a Transportation Voucher Program to provide transportation assistance to island residents who meet senior, veteran, low-income or disabled eligibility requirements.
The program is seeking residents to participate and businesses or individuals to provide transportation services. The Transportation Voucher Program is part of the San Juan County Community Transportation Program, a state grant-funded effort to raise public awareness about existing transportation options, provide better access to transportation services to qualified residents, and define the county transportation system of the future.
Residents may check eligibility requirements and apply using the San Juan County Community Transportation webpages (www.sanjuanco.com/publictransport). Or, contact a senior coordinator, family resource representative, or Christopher Aiken, 360-370-7512; firstname.lastname@example.com.
To be eligible for transportation assistance, you must be a county resident and over age 60, a U.S. military veteran, disabled, or low-income (income under $25,000 last year).
Transportation providers of all types - taxi companies, bike shops, personal drivers and auto repair shops - will be considered for the program.
"We're trying to establish a broad palette of transportation options to best fit the diverse needs of our community members who are vulnerable to gaps in our transportation system," program coordinator Christopher Aiken said.
Aiken said that providers must apply, meet with program directors and sign a simple contract. Providers must wait up to two weeks for financial reimbursement.
More information about becoming a provider of transportation services is available at the Community Transportation webpages (www.sanjuanco.com/publictransport), or contact Aiken, contact info above.

I recently came across this most appropriate quote by Henry David Thoreau, and in the comics of all places.
The timing was right. Lately, I don't know whether I'm coming or going; sometimes it's both, at the same time.
The quote reads, "The truly efficient laborer will be found not to crowd his day with work, but will saunter to his task, surrounded by a wide halo of ease and leisure."
Now, if you see me, with a halo around my head, strolling leisurely as I go about my daily tasks, note that I am very hard at work. Tell this to your boss. He or she just may buy it, too.
It's not slacking off; it's "sauntering." Remember that.
I will try to next time I drive to Clovis. Instead of racing down the highway at 85 to 90 miles an hour — I'm not the only one who has done that — ease up on the gas and leisurely "motor" to your destination.
Ironically, you'll probably get there at about the same time, going 60 miles an hour as opposed to going "hecho ninety." A little Spanglish there.
Many times, I've flown past cars, going "hecho ninety," only to get to the second or third stoplight on Prince and see the cars I passed right next to me.
Rushing doesn't save time. It causes undue stress, so saunter as you go about the rest of your work week.

Maybe it's the eyeglasses.
Tom Lehrer, the 1950s/'60s musical satirist who wrote a parody song named after Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," wore them.
Stephen Colbert, the current political satirist whose Yuletide television special -- "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All!" -- is rerunning all over the Comedy Central cable channel, wears them.
Whatever the prescription, it worked before, and it works now. Like sales at furniture stores and car dealerships, goodwill towards mammon reigns eternal.
Now 80 years old, Lehrer composed his lone holiday slam in 1954. His "A Christmas Carol" went straight for the pocketbook.
"Hark, the Herald Tribune sings/
"Advertising wondrous things.
"God rest you merry merchants,
"May you make the Yuletide pay.
"Angels we have heard on high/
"Tell us to go out and buy!"
Keeping right up with the ka-ching of Lehrer's holiday spirit, Colbert's one-hour show debuted Nov. 23, as a shill for itself.
The DVD version going on sale Dec. 8, for $19.99 — or, as is said in our current economy, 20 big ones — has a cover photo of Colbert holding up the DVD which has a cover of Colbert holding up the DVD which has a cover of Colbert holding up the DVD and so on.
The conceit of the special is that Colbert at his mountain retreat, preparing to go to New York City to tape his musical Christmas special.
"I'm so excited right now, " says Colbert, "I'm sporting a Yule log."
Prepare for shrinkage, to mere kindling. Colbert gets trapped inside when a man-eating bear at his front door -- a door which Colbert already has slammed in the grimy little faces of three starving children -- lays siege to the cabin. Consequently, Colbert's guests have to come to him, to do what guests do - make guest appearances.
Where Lehrer's lyrics suggested, "Kill the turkeys, ducks and chickens/ mix the punch, drag out the Dickens," Colbert hauls out singers from a phalanx of idioms: Country's ultrapatriotic Toby Keith, who's hunting reindeer with an automatic rifle and threatening to decapitate anyone with secular stances on Christmas; Willie Nelson as a little Fourth Wiseman, popping up in a Nativity scene (singing "The Little Dealer Boy") with a gift of marijuana for the Christ child, and getting busted by cops in two tiny squad cars with siren wailing and roof lights flashing; indie folk singer Feist as a Christmas-tree angel; John Legend applying his rhythm-and-blues to a song about nutmeg; and Elvis Costello who gets eaten by the bear, but survives when Colbert kills the beast, guts the carcass before it can digest the singer, and then skins the ursa very minor which becomes a rug.
No jokes, thank you very much, about being unable to stomach Elvis Costello.
Also into the Colbert Christmas mix sashays Jon Stewart, head honcho of "The Daily Show" faux news report. That's where Colbert made his name as a correspondent fudging the facts, and subsequently got his own spinoff.
Colbert is Catholic, Stewart is Jewish and leads his former employer in the duet song "Can I Interest You in Hanukkah?" Potato pancake, anyone?
With a wink, the joy of cynicism runs high in "A Colbert Christmas." Colbert opens his special -- its subtitle is an entendre doubling as advertisement -- singing and (sort of) dancing to "Another Christmas Song." The tune's lyrics admit it was written solely to make money for Colbert. Colbert and Costello team to explain that, when it comes to Christmas, "There Are Much Worse Things to Believe In."
All nine songs -- available on iTunes -- for the Colbert special are written by lyricist David Javerbaum and composer Adam Schlesinger. All, too, are funny. Some are hilarious. A few might destined to become standards, which is kind of scary when you think about it, so don't think about it.
Remember instead the image of Stephen Colbert, pipe clenched in teeth, channeling Andy Williams and Perry Como as a Ghost of Christmas Specials Past: Dressed in a red turtleneck under a cream, cable-knit cardigan sweater; wearing jeans, and huge boots topped with fur. The numbers of his touch-tone telephone play "Jingle Bells," on a show that proves Stephen Colbert can sing well, and Jon Stewart can sing, well, not.
Colbert gets caught under the mistletoe with almost everybody, but French kisses only the bear. He serves Legend eggnog laced with "enough rum in here to blind a pirate." When Colbert prays to God, Feist, as an celestial telephone operator, puts him on hold. That's cold but, hey, it's winter, and religion.
Colbert signs off with a Christmas wish: "I hope you all enjoyed watching me as much as I have."
It's enough drive Tom Lehrer to sing out from his "A Christmas Carol":
"So let the raucous sleigh bells jingle,
"Hail our dear old friend Kriss Kringle,
"Driving his reindeer across the sky.
"Don't stand underneath when they fly by."

The Detroit Lions could address a couple different areas by signing Chris Carr. The free agent cornerback and returner, who played for the Tennessee Titans last year, visited Detroit and said he's considering the Lions, but would want to get an opportunity to play more defense.
Cleveland.com, March 3: Carr, who is 5-10 and 180 pounds, visited the Detroit Lions on Monday. He said in Detroit he wants to play more cornerback and would probably decide among Tennessee, Detroit and Cleveland after visiting the Browns.
He doesn't sound completely sold on Motown, by any stretch. Then again, it doesn't sound like he's really leaning toward any particular team.
Detroit Free Press, March 3: "I like Tennessee, and it's still not a foregone conclusion that I'm not going to go back there," Carr said as he walked out the door to a waiting car. "But if a team's going to give me more of an opportunity, then I probably would leave."
The same Freep article mentions that the Lions are going to meet with Daniel Loper, an offensive lineman Schwartz is familiar with from his days in Tennessee.
Loper, 6-feet-6, 320 pounds, spent the past four seasons with the Titans. He can play guard and move to tackle if needed. He is scheduled to arrive tonight and visit team headquarters Wednesday.

MONTGOMERY, Alabama - Faulkner struggled mightily in the red zone and Kentucky Christian enjoyed a long fourth-quarter touchdown drive as the Knights escaped with an 18-15 victory here Saturday afternoon in a Mid-South Conference matchup, spoiling the Eagles' Homecoming and Senior Day in the process.
The largest crowd of the season at Faulkner Stadium saw the Eagles battle back from a 10-0 deficit to take a 15-10 lead in the final quarter, but Kentucky Christian marched 64 yards in 13 plays, to regain the lead. Quarterback Cole Cooper capped the near seven-minute drive with a 2-yard touchdown run. Cooper's pass to Rance Owens was good for the two-point conversion with 6:01 left in the game.
After Faulkner was forced into a three-and-out, the Knights extinguished the final 4:42 of the game by making good on a pair third-down conversions. The Eagles outgained Kentucky Christian 408 yards to 279, but tallied only six points in five trips inside the Knights' 20-yard line.
"It's a disappointing way to end the season, but I thought our guys really battled hard the entire game," said Faulkner head coach Brent Barker, who guided the Eagles (6-5 overall, 4-2 MSC West) to the program's first-ever winning season in 2012. "We just struggled running the ball against them, and we didn't make plays when we got down there close."
Faulkner quarterback Josh Hollingsworth completed 33 passes in 56 attempts for 421 yards and a touchdown. The Eagles' rushing attack was non-existent, finishing with minus-13 yards on 17 carries. Defensive end Paramore Tapa, playing in his last game for the Eagles, turned in a memorable performance, recording 15 total tackles. Ty Hardnett added nine stops, while Cory Aubert added nine and Kenterris Williams seven for Faulkner. Hardnett had three sacks and Williams two for the Eagles, who recorded nine in the game.
"Our defense was solid again, and has been most all year," Barker said. "They played well enough to win. We're going to start recruiting for next year almost immediately."
The first quarter was scoreless, despite the fact that Faulkner had two long drives end deep in Kentucky Christian territory on failed fourth-down attempts. After the Knights stuffed the Eagles' Triston McCathern on fourth-and-goal at the 1, the KCU offense drove 86 yards in nine plays to grab the lead, with Andrew Slikker's 30-yard field goal making it 3-0.
The Knights' lead grew on their next possession, which culminated on a 20-yard touchdown catch by Marcus Hicks. Slikker's extra point made it 10-0. Faulkner's Ryan Kennamer got the Eagles on the board right before the half with a 22-yard field goal, cutting the margin to 10-3 at the break.
Neither team scored in the third quarter, but that changed quickly in the fourth. On the first play of the final 15 minutes, Hollingsworth found wideout Steven Dawson open down the right sideline for 45 yards and a touchdown. Kennamer's extra point tied the game at 10.
After an illegal block on the ensuing kickoff pushed KCU back to its 7-yard line, Faulkner took its first lead of the game on the next play. Knight quarterback Cole Cooper was called for intentional grounding in his own end zone, giving Faulkner a safety and a 12-10 advantage with just over 14 minutes to play.
With possession after the free kick, the Eagles moved to a first down at the Knights' 17-yard line. The drive stalled, and Kennamer's second field goal of the game pushed Faulkner's lead to 15-10 with 12:51 to play, setting the stage for Kentucky Christian's game-winning drive.
"We had a great crowd today and I wish we could've given them a win, but we came up short," Barker said. "We won six games, and we were competitive in every game but one. This season certainly gives us something to build on in the future."

Abed Loutfi and Fredrik Molin of Uppsala Student Radio 98.9 spoke to guitarist/vocalist Mikael Åkerfeldt of Swedish progressive metallers OPETH on Friday, November 30 during the band's "Swedish Heritage Tour 2012".
Asked about the progress of the songwriting sessions for OPETH's follow-up to 2011's "Heritage" album, Mikael said (see video below): "I have one new song, which I really like, a new song. It's the most miserable song I ever wrote, and it's beautiful, I think. And then I have a song that we jammed, actually, on tour. I came up with a little lick and became a bit of a director and just told everyone to play this and that, and we started jamming on something. And it sounded, immediately from the beginning, which was also my idea, it sounded like the band GOBLIN, if you heard them, the Italian [progressive rock] band. So it's a crazy riff, a GOBLIN rip-off, and the song is called 'Goblin', which is a good title, I think. And we're gonna record it. I'm not sure if that will be too much of a fucked up song to be on the record, because there will definitely only be one song ever we do that is gonna sound like that. So maybe it'll just be some extra thing that we have. But it's really good; I love it. But then again, it's just because of the closeness to GOBLIN."
OPETH performed a special "unplugged" show on November 16 at the Union Chapel in London, England.
OPETH's new album, "Heritage", sold 19,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 19 on The Billboard 200 chart. The band's previous studio CD, 2008's "Watershed", opened with more than 19,000 units to land at No. 23.
"Watershed" was the follow-up to the band's acclaimed "Ghost Reveries" CD, which debuted at No. 64 on the Billboard chart back in September 2005 with first-week sales of just under 15,000.
OPETH's 2003 album, "Damnation", premiered with a little over 5,000 copies.

Get ready to pay a bit more for taking the ferry.
The peak season for Washington State Ferries starts Wednesday, May 1, and an additional 25 percent surcharge will be applied to full fare vehicle/driver tickets.
Peak-season rates are unchanged from 2012, and the surcharge does not affect passenger fares or frequent user multi-ride fares.
On the Bainbridge Island-Seattle route, the one-way fare for a standard-size vehicle (14 feet long to less than 22 feet long) will rise from $13.15 to $16.40.
The peak season runs from May 1 through Sept. 30.
According to WSF, the seasonal surcharge helps pay for increased operational costs that come with increased traffic through September.
WSF noted that a 35 percent surcharge will be added to fares on the Anacortes/San Juan Islands routes during the peak season, and summer parking rates at Anacortes will also go into effect on May 1.

The PIAA-AAAA girls' basketball state playoffs resume on Tuesday, with a trio of midstate teams still dancing.
Mid-Penn Commonwealth champ Cumberland Valley takes on Archbishop Carroll; Mid-Penn Keystone champ Mechanicsburg takes on defending state champ Spring-Ford; and Mid-Penn Commonwealth combatant State College takes on North Allegheny.
Here is a preview of those games, plus a look at Tuesday's other Class AAAA second-round matchups …
Cumberland Valley (24-5) vs. Archbishop Carroll (15-9) at Geigle Complex, Reading, 6 p.m. — CV, the D3 No. 3 seed, edged Central Bucks West 46-43 and AC stunned Garnet Valley 41-39 in nail-biter first-round games. AC rallied from a 16-point second-half deficit against GV, winning the game when Lexi Stover stuck back Julia Gantz's miss at the buzzer. CV, paced by double-digit scorers Maddie Torresin (15.7, 23 3s) and Kelly Jekot (14.3, 46 3s), are on a mission to get back to the state title game, after falling to Spring-Ford in the championship last March. Patriots beat Northeast Philadelphia in the District 12 finale. Backcourt mates Stover and Keara McNulty are Carroll's top scorers. Plot: Can Carroll slow down CV's transition attack? When coach Bill Wolf's Eagles are running and finishing, they're awfully tough to beat. Winner gets: Mount St. Joseph or Dover in the quarterfinals on Friday.
Mechanicsburg (23-6) vs. Spring-Ford (24-6) at Garden Spot HS, 7:30 p.m. — Coach Clay McAllister's Wildcats are coming off a dominating 70-36 first-round win over Northeast Philadelphia, as Hannah Brown (9.5, 45 3s) popped in six 3s and dropped a season-high 26 points, and Cecily Carl (16.3, 19 3s) scored 20 points for Mechanicsburg, the No. 6 seed from D3. They'll get a Rams' outfit that finished runner-up in D1 — Spring-Ford lost to North Penn in the finale — but is out to defend its PIAA crown. Point guard Sammy Stipa, a Lafayette recruit, and forwards Shelby Mueller and Maggie Locke are Spring-Ford's big three. Rams' first-year coach Mickey McDaniel is back on the bench after surgery to repair an Achilles tendon tear. Plot: Mechanicsburg PG Jordan Hertz must curtail Stipa, who is a heck of a facilitator and scorer in transition. She can shoot the 3-ball, too. Winner gets: Wilson or Abington in the quarterfinals on Friday.
State College (18-7) vs. North Allegheny (23-2) at Indiana HS, 8 p.m. — Coach Bethany Irwin's Little Lions held off Mt. Lebanon 51-50 in the first round as Jalyn Shelton-Burleigh bucketed 19 points and State College fended off the Blue Devils at the wire. Little Lions' soph F Kyla Irwin pitched in with 14 points, upping her career total to 918. NA had been sitting around since a WPIAL semifinal loss to Hempfield Area, which then lost to Penn-Trafford in the District 7 finale. NA knocked out P-T 64-39 in the first round, sending the WPIAL champs home. Keep an eye on Tigers' sniper Devin LaBarge, who splashed six 3s and popped in 22 points against P-T. Plot: NA is a defensive-minded bunch that takes great pride in holding teams to 40 points or less. State College is riding a 7-game winning streak and has one of the top low-post threats still in the tourney in Irwin, who averages 19.9 points. Tigers' D should tell the tale in this one. Winner gets: Hempfield Area or Fox Chapel in the quarterfinals on Friday.
Elsewhere Tuesday …
North Penn (25-3) vs. Northampton (15-11) at Souderton HS, 6 p.m. — Maidens are fresh off the D1 crown and beat L-L League Section 2 champ Lebanon 52-41 in the first round. Hate to label, but at 15-11, Konkrete Kids, who upset D2 champ Wallenpaupack in the first round, are the Cinderella of the bracket. Now they'll get a stab at the top-ranked team in the state. Couple of really good snipers on display in this one: Vicky Tumasz, a 1,000-point scorer and Shippensburg recruit, can shoot it for North Penn; Leandra Sterner (16.2) is Northampton's top gun.
West Chester Bayard Rustin (23-6) vs. Parkland (20-7) at Souderton HS, 7:30 p.m. — Rustin flattened L-L League champ Manheim Township 71-46 in the first round behind F Adashia Franklyn, who poured in 31 points and sent the Blue Streaks packing. Parkland, the D11 champ, edged Central Bucks East 32-30 in the first round. Erin Bross scored 10 points for Parkland, including four game-icing foul shots in the waning seconds for the Trojans.
Mount St. Joseph (27-3) vs. Dover (25-3) at Garden Spot HS, 6 p.m. — Terrific matchup featuring a pair of top-8 ranked teams here; MSJ, which sprinted past Cardinal O'Hara 69-32 in the first round, spent several weeks at No. 1 in our state rankings, and features multi-purpose Villanova recruit Alex Louin and Loyola (Md.) recruit Carly Monzo. Dover, which handled Bishop Shanahan 48-30 in the first round, is the D3 runner-up and is kick-started by do-everything G Alayah Hall, the D3 tourney MVP. Hall will drive Louin batty in the backcourt. Book that.
Wilson (23-7) vs. Abington (20-7) at Coatesville HS, 7:30 p.m. — Bulldogs won their 17th game in a row — barely — in the first round, fending off D1 No. 10 seed Methacton 44-43. Wilson continues to ride the hot hands of Division I recruits Carley Brew (James Madison), Jessie Wallace (Rider), Avery Marz (St. Joe's) and D stopper Ivory Bailey (Bryant); Brew had 14 points and 13 boards in the win over Methacton. Abington, the D1 No. 6 seed, KO'd D11 runner-up Pocono Mountain West 55-36 in Round 1. Galloping Ghosts feasted on 21 turnovers in their win.
Hempfield Area (18-9) vs. Fox Chapel (20-5) at Gateway HS, 6 p.m. — Hempfield, the WPIAL runner-up, eliminated Pittsburgh City League champ Obama Academy 54-33 in the opener, while Fox Chapel knocked out District 10 champ Erie McDowell 48-36. Two kids to keep an eye on: Hempfield's Monica Burns burned Obama for 21 points, while Kayla Slovenec paced Fox Chapel's balanced attack with 14 points against McDowell.

Syracuse, NY – A Syracuse University student was taken to Crouse Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries after he was hit by a car Wednesday on Comstock Avenue, SU's public safety chief said.
The 20-year-old male student was stepping into the road in the middle of the 700 block of Comstock about 12:34 p.m. when he was hit by a 2003 Kia being being driven by a 22-year-old female student at the state College of Environmental Science and Forestry, Chief Anthony Callisto said. The driver was changing lanes at the moment the victim stepped onto the pavement, Callisto said.
He would not identify the students further, citing university policy. He declined to confirm a Daily Orange report identifying the injured pedestrian as Colin Robinson.
No tickets will be issued, he said.
"It appears that this was purely accidental and that it was bad timing, where the pedestrian student stepped off the curb while the lane change was going on," Callisto said. "Neither would have known this was going to happen."
Callisto said the accident took place about a block from where another student was struck by ambulance on April 1. The city has lengthened the timing of crossing signals on Comstock Avenue since then and the Public Safety department has embarked on an outreach campaign to get students to be more cautious crossing the street, he said.

Why Futsal? The sport of Futsal is a great skill developer for all soccer players. This exciting game demands quick reflexes, fast thinking and pin point passing. The game is safe, simple and fun to play for all ages. Just by playing with the ball develops precise ball control, technical skill, agility, lightening reflexes and decision making. As the balls have less bounce, they tend to stay in play longer and promote close ball control.
Playing in enclosed areas develops creativity; players are also constantly placed in demanding decision making situations in enclosed areas which is a major reason why Futsal is one of the finest teachers of the quick pass and move. In soccer it is very hard to defend against a team that is adept at this type of play.
Children and adults love playing Futsal. It is exciting, many goals are scored and there are no complex rules. Participants learn so much faster if they enjoy the game and spend a lot of time playing with the ball. If looking to improve skills on the soccer field, Futsal is the best way.
The clinics are offered on Thursdays, beginning Nov. 21 and Sundays, beginning Dec. 1. Visit the department's website: westfieldnj.gov/recreation for registration and additional program information.
Contact the Westfield Recreation Department by phone 908-789-4080 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for additional information.

From of old no one has heard or perceived by the ear, no eye has seen a God besides you, who acts for those who wait for him. (Isaiah 64:4)
This verse took on a powerful new meaning for me in my early twenties when I was discovering new dimensions of the greatness of God. This discovery was coming in the form of teaching that God could not be served, but that he shows his power by serving us.
This was mindboggling to me. I had always taken for granted that the greatness of God consisted in his right to demand service. And, of course, in one sense, that's true. After all, didn't Paul call himself a "servant of the Lord" over and over?
But what about Acts 17:25? "God is not served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything." And what about Mark 10:45? "The Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
These verses clobbered me.
The Son does not want to be served, but to serve? God does not want to be served, but to give all people everything? Then there were verses like 2 Chronicles 16:9. "The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless toward him." God is searching for people for whom he can show his strength.

Meet Mets' Thor, god of thunder
If you haven't yet, check out my profile on Mets prospect Noah Syndergaard. Here are a couple of expanded anecdotes that didn't make it into the story:
Mets vice president of amateur scouting Paul DePodesta:
"I think Roy Smith put it really, really well when we were in talks with Toronto to trade for him a year and a half ago. Roy said you just don't see that many guys that size at that age with that stuff with that command. That combination of four things, you just don't see very often. You might see two of the four, you might see three of the four, but to see all four things in that package is really rare. That's not typical. And it's different even in some of the guys, the big, strong right-handed power pitchers who have come out of there didn't have all of those elements."
Syndergaard's high school coach, David Walden:
"I really don't know what happened, but about halfway through his senior year he jumped from probably 82 miles per hour to 87, 88, and we don't know why he finally started cutting it loose or why he was holding it back or what. We don't know. And then it started getting warm and we got into the playoffs, and all of the sudden he starts throwing the ball hitting 92, 93, stuff like that and just blowing hitters away. He really wasn't even throwing a breaking pitch or a changeup, he was just blowing hitters away with his fastball. And then we got through another round or two and all of the sudden he started hitting 95, and all of the sudden there are scouts all over the place. The last pitch that he threw in high school was in the seventh inning, he had just given up a no-hitter on a flare with two outs in the fourth round of the playoffs here in Texas, and his last pitch was 97. … It was just crazy around here until the draft with all these people. He went from a guy who really didn't even know if he wanted to pitch to, in the course of four months, a first-round pick."

Jump Into Ireland
It has been an amazing green weekend in my Ohio garden thanks to unseasonable warm temperatures and rain showers. When I walk out toward our wooded acreage toward the branch of the Portage River that runs through our garden I can't help but think of our trip to Ireland a few years ago. The moss and moist green scents… I'm in love! I'm excited to end this St. Patrick's weekend with you all by sharing a few of my photos from the Philadelphia International Flower and Garden Shows display by one of their official sponsors – Classic Ireland with a Twist : Jump Into Ireland.
If you can't view this Flash Slideshow Click Here to view on Google+.
Speaking from my heart after visited the wonderful land of Ireland a few years ago this garden display was MARVELOUS! The lighting in most garden shows are always a challenge to place one's self out in the actual landscape but I must say this piece totally took me back to the country side. To smell the green, view the ivy on aged stone and a glimpse of the headstone featured on the landscape display took me back to 2009 when I found myself remembering those who had passed taking photos in the yards in Ireland. I can't help but close my eyes and remember the stone we found as we hiked out into the country side in Curragh Chase Forest outside of Limerick Ireland. These photo below are from my visit a few years ago so you can see the similarities presented at the Philadelphia Show.

With last week's impulse yarn-buy inspiring a new knit cap, the next step was to select needles. The yarn label recommended #11— the bigger the number, the fatter the needle. I had straight #11 needles, but I was going to knit "in the round" whereby the entire piece is done at once, with no seaming, so I needed circular and double-pointed needles.
I popped into Mabel's Café & Knittery (3041 SE Division, 231-4107, mabelscafe.com) to buy double-pointed #US needles ($9), a #11 16" circular needle ($10.25), and a latte ($3). Walking into Mabel's is like walking into a dear friend's living room— especially if this friend has great taste in yarn and has decorated the house with it.
I was itching to knit. I seriously recommend taking a beginning class for never-before knitters. Local classes usually cost around $45 plus materials. Another indispensable resource is Debbie Stoller's Stitch-N-Bitch, The Knitter's Handbook and Stitch-N-Bitch Nation. When stuck, I look things up in a snap and am back on the road to Knitville in minutes.
To test the gauge (how many stitches per inch with a combination of yarn, needle size, and the tendency to knit tightly or loosely) I made a swatch by "casting on" (first row of stitches, starting with a slipknot) eight stitches. I then knit across each row for four inches. The yarn's fur jeopardized accuracy, but I think I was getting two stitches to the inch (which is what the label said I would get with a #11 needle). I multiplied 2 x 21 (per Stevanie's advice) and got a cast on count of forty-two.
After casting on, I knit in the round for four inches. Although the circumference looked correct, the cap was suspiciously short in length. I transferred the stitches to three double-pointed needles (fourteen stitches per needle, with a stitch marker at every seven). Mathematically, this should have worked. But on my last needle I had seven stitches, a stitch marker, and then twelve stitches.
To decrease, I knit "two-together" (bring two stitches to the right-hand needle and knit as if it's one) before each stitch marker and the ends of each needle. I randomly knit two-together to take care of the extra five stitches. When I got down to the last four stitches (after about 3 hours), I cut the yarn and pulled the end through the stitches, drawing the cap to a close. The unruly yarn camouflaged my mistakes beautifully— only it couldn't stop the Bluebird/Camp Fire Girl flashbacks. I'd made a beanie!
Note: Mabel's has morphed from a yarn shop to the knit and crochet friendly Tandem Coffee Shop.

The best time to shoot there on the Disney ship was early morning. Most everyone was asleep because most people stay out late. This gave me a great chance to take photos without a bunch of people in the shot. For all the interior shots, I used tripods. Even though the whole boat was moving, everything inside the boat was moving in a relative manner, so it worked out easily.

I assume you're the creator of this app, if you want to really grab attention of the mac audience I suggest you program a game analyzer in.Macs are dreadful when it comes to finding a good chess program with the ability to analyse games, and im sure many people, myself included would be thrilled to have a proficient one.
Chess engines aren't a problem on mac's. Stockfish, Critter and Komodo all have native mac support. The real issue is a good engine GUI like Arena and a full featured database.

"This was totally out of our hearts," he said. "We took pay cuts to do this. Our mantra was always, 'Yeah, we want to make a living, but, more importantly, we want to make a difference.'"
McKendry and Hanon had both been successful in the advertising world, but they had hit a point in their careers where they weren't sure if they could continue in the business. McKendry said they felt they could use their gifts to help balance the consumerism in the mass media by giving a voice to charity, humanity and faith.
"Could we sell charity -- the idea of people giving their time and money to charity? Could we sell human kindness? Could we sell faith? And brand it so people would find it just as appealing as anything they could buy somewhere? That was kind of the theory we had," McKendry said.
"The problem is that a lot of business people think they've stepped into another world and shouldn't expect a return on their investment," he said.
But when those business people see charities create a return on their investments, that success motivates them to invest more. McKendry wants not-for-profits to look at marketing not as an expense but as an investment that will bring more donations and help grow their business.
"There's a huge need out there in the charity world, and there's a huge desire out there in the philanthropy world," McKendry said. "And we try to make the two work together."
What have been some of your most memorable projects?
"I think the heart of the agency goes back to our first client, Mel Trotter Ministries. ... We worked really hard to understand the marketplace and what we needed to give people in order to give their time and money. But we also needed to understand homelessness more, so Jim Hanon and I, for a week, prepared to stay overnight at Mel Trotter. ...
"The stories that we got and the perspectives that we got, it was pretty incredible. ... Before that night, I can't lie to you, I looked at homeless people and thought, 'Get a job; stop drinking.' But what you find out, it starts with one bad thing and then another bad thing and another bad thing, and pretty soon these people are drowning in their own circumstances. ...
"Without finding that insight, without experiencing what it's like to be there ... without fully understanding, you can't create good advertising. If you just sit in your office, how can you create a good story that positions the organization and tells the story of what they do better than anyone else?"
What advice would you give your younger self?
"I saw the cover of this book: 'Do What You Love and the Money Will Follow.' ... What I've found is, if you've really got a passion for something and figure out how to do it as well as anybody, the money's going to happen.
"I encourage my sons that way. Both of them said they want to come work here. I'm always like, 'That would be great, if working here is something you have a passion for. But if you have a passion for something else, I would really prefer that you pursue that.'
"You've got to love what you do. I feel sorry for people who go into work and it's a grind. I've had that -- in this same business."
What are your hobbies?
"When you're a parent, you have no hobbies. I do two things: I work, and I'm a parent. My sons are very involved in basketball, and I was their coach up until a certain point. I'm still pretty involved in their activities. We still do ski and snowboard, too."
Where would you love to visit but haven't gotten a chance?
"I've always been fascinated with the Asian world -- Japan, China. It just feels very ancient. A lot of people go to Europe, but I just have always been fascinated by the Far East. I've got a client that's telling me on his next buying trip to China I can go with him if I want to."
What would surprise people to know about you?
"I enjoy really hard rock music. I love stuff like Creed, Pearl Jam. If I could sing like Eddie Vedder, I would give up this career.
"I am a drummer -- when I was younger I was in a rock band. The staff can never believe I had really long hair and was in a rock band. I think God on purpose didn't give me a band that could play like Pearl Jam -- he had other plans for me, I think.
"I think people would expect that I'd love Christian music and stuff like that. My pastor asked me a few years ago to play drums in church, and I had to give it up because I just can't feel that kind of music. I'm like, 'Where's the beat? What do I do with this?' I think my pastor was kind of surprised. It's not that I don't love it -- there's just something about really hard rock music that I find more appealing.
"I work with my kids all the time, going, 'There's themes in here, there's words in here, there's things that I don't want you to admire or like.' That's the part that's hard."
If you could ask one person -- living or dead -- one question, whom would you ask and what would the question be?
"Martin Luther King would be somebody I'd love to meet. I guess my question for him -- being Irish -- would be, 'How do you keep your cool?' How did he do that in what were pretty tough circumstances? He showed extreme tolerance and extreme grace just plodding forward.
"I was born the same year as Barack Obama, so I can remember Martin Luther King pretty early in my life. To this day, I can't read or listen to or watch the 'I Have a Dream Speech' and not be totally moved, totally engaged, and I've seen it, heard it, read it thousands of times. It's still just as good, maybe even more, than the first time."

The Los Angeles Lakers recently announced their intent to raise a statue honoring the NBA's all-time leading scorer, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. The statue, which will be placed outside Staples Center, will be unveiled at some point during the 2012-13 season.
It is undoubtedly a great honor to receive a commemorative statue, but one that is bestowed upon only a select few players. Abdul-Jabbar himself had to endure quite a wait before finally receiving the honor. This article takes a look at a group of eight players who may be next in line to be immortalized in bronze.

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.
Kevin Garnett, NBA Celtics star and former Timberwolves star, stopped at P & A Security in Willmar Tuesday for training. He signed some autographs while he was there.
This was actually a couple of days ago but the photo just surfaced. And this isn't a big deal or anything other than this being the first I've even seen of Kevin Garnett since the season ended. Nice to see he still hangs out in Minnesota. And hey, you've got work on your shot in the offseason, whether it's an 18 foot jumper, or a 9mm Beretta (if you're into that sort of thing). Plus, he wouldn't be the only Celtics big man who could handle a pistol.
Welcome to August, folks, where the biggest Celtics updates is keeping up with what the Celtics are doing with their off time. Since we're here:
- No, Jeff Green hasn't officially signed yet.
- No, it doesn't look like Danny's adding another player (but you never know)
- No, the Celtics aren't trading for anyone because none of the guys they've recently signed can be traded until at least December (or January, in some cases).
Chris Wilcox delivered a pick-up truck full of food to a food bank. Rajon Rondo is going to be in a video game (via CSNNE). Mickael Pietrus (whom the Celtics just can't afford anymore) is talking to Milwaukee. And that's about it for the moment.
Besides, any excuse to watch Bill Russell in Miami Vice is a good reason. Happy Friday.
