Sorry Company
by Sad and mad , 06/07/2014
This company is a total rip off and its best to never use them for towing. They totally destroyed the front end of my car and claimed they didn't do it. They treat your vehicle like it is trash and will not pay for the damage they did. My car was parked at a friends house and the landlord had it towed by this sorry company. Overcharged me and tore up my vehicle. When I spoke to the owner he was rude and arrogant. A total butt hole.
Do Not Use For Towing of Any Kind !!!
by susan , 03/30/2013
I was in a accident recently, and the police called them to come out because they were on rotation. I was in shock from the accident. All the police cared about was getting the vehicle out of road. My husband was on the way to help with another tow service, and the police would not let us request another service because they had to move it out of the road. I had to painly fork over $180. dollars just to tow my vehicle less than 2 miles down the road that is price gowging if I have ever seen it. They don't care about their customers, all they want is your arm&leg. Shame on you for taking advantage on people in their time of need. I will never ever ever, use this company for nothing else. I wouldn't even let them wash my car, if they were in to that. I sure would not recomend this company for anything unless you want to go broke!

I will alway trust Bishop
Good Place to Deal
by Lakeman , 11/23/2010
I have bought a lot of car pars from this location the people are nice and they have about everthing. I have bought parts and even a car from them and was very happy with the service.
Great Place to Go
by mother,wife,daughter,sister , 10/12/2010
I have been going to Bishop's for the past six or seven years and very satisfied. I have been to Bishop's for towing, car parts, cars, and body work. The young guy that has pulled my parts for years now is very helpful, nice, and hardworking. The lady that works in the office is very nice and helpful. Mr. Bishop is a friendly man that will help you find what you are looking for if he doesn't have it. I would recommend this business to anyone and give them a full thumbs up for all their hard work. I can count on this business through many holidays, rain, snow, and smoking hot weather. Thank you Bishops for serving me the past six to seven years. Workers that have served me are "Gerald Bishop, Cathy, Cody" these truly are some helpful employees. The prices have fit my budget very well and never once have I ever had to complain about anything.
by sm , 10/06/2010
Please avoid using this company at all costs. The Highway Patrol contacted them after the accident. If you are every in this situation, request another company because Bishop Towing and Recovery's prices are ridiculously expensive. The owner is trying to charge more than $1700 for towing a truck and merchandise about 9-10 miles from an accident scene. Not only is the price bogus, but the customer service is horrible. The owner is arrogant and knows that in order to dispute the price you must go to civil court which takes additional time and money. They do NOT care about their customers! They try to use you for everything that you have! Again, PLEASE AVOID USING THIS COMPANY, unless you want to just give your possessions to them!!!
Have always been treated fairly....
by squads51 , 09/08/2010
I have been going to Bishop's on and off for the last 6 years....never any problems with anyone there....if I had I sure wouldn't make the almost 80 mile round trip from Moore County....it can be a little challenging getting the removed parts to the office sometimes (rain, mud, etc)....but that is part of the adventure going to a junkyard....
Rude employees
by Dissappointed , 05/08/2009
I dont know the lady's name, but she is an older lady, and she is very rude and shoudnt be working in costumer service with an attitude. They will defintely not get my business because of her.

In Memory of Nick Adenhart
A friend sent along this poem published in 1896 by A.E. Housman.
|To An Athlete Dying Young
|THE time you won your town the race
|We chaired you through the market-place;
|Man and boy stood cheering by,
|And home we brought you shoulder-high.
|To-day, the road all runners come,
|Shoulder-high we bring you home,
|And set you at your threshold down,
|Townsman of a stiller town.
|Smart lad, to slip betimes away
|From fields where glory does not stay,
|And early though the laurel grows
|It withers quicker than the rose.
|Eyes the shady night has shut
|Cannot see the record cut,
|And silence sounds no worse than cheers
|After earth has stopped the ears:
|Now you will not swell the rout
|Of lads that wore their honours out,
|Runners whom renown outran
|And the name died before the man.
|So set, before its echoes fade,
|The fleet foot on the sill of shade,
|And hold to the low lintel up
|The still-defended challenge-cup.
|And round that early-laurelled head
|Will flock to gaze the strengthless dead,
|And find unwithered on its curls
|The garland briefer than a girl's.
Report: Nick Adenhart Killed in Car Crash
The Orange County Register reports that Nick Adenhart and two others were killed last night in a car crash in Fullerton. The Register says that the other vehicle may have been involved in a felony hit-and run.
According to the story, the Angels will hold a press conference later today.
UPDATE 10:00 AM PDT — Below is the official press release from the Angels. No other Angels personnel were involved. A press conference is scheduled for 10:30 AM PDT.
ANAHEIM, CA: Angels Baseball this morning announced the passing of right-hander Nick Adenhart, the victim of a fatal automobile accident in Fullerton, CA. Two other individuals were also killed in the incident.
Adenhart, 22, was a passenger in a silver Mitsubishi along with three others. Fullerton Police reported the Mitsubishi proceeded through an intersection, when a van ran a red light and broadsided the vehicle. A female driver and male passenger were in the Mitsubishi were dead when police and fire department personnel arrived. Adenhart died as the result of his injuries at UCI Medical Center earlier this morning. No other members of the Angels organization were involved.
Adenhart pitched a masterful six innings in last night's game against Oakland (6 IP, 7 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 5 SO), leaving with a 4-0 lead before a late-inning rally resulted in a 6-4 Angels defeat.
Originally drafted by the Angels in the 14th round of the June, 2004 draft, Adenhart was in his fifth professional season and made the Angels Opening Day roster for the first time. He opened the 2009 campaign with a 37-28 career minor league record and a 3.87 ERA (506.2 IP – 218 ER). Adenhart made his Major League debut last May 1 against Oakland. At the time, he was the youngest active-roster pitcher in the majors.
Adenhart earned his spot in the Angels rotation via a spring training in which he recorded a 3-0 record and a 3.12 ERA (26 IP – 9 ER) over the course of six starts. During that span, he struck out 18 while allowing only five base on balls.
Adenhart is survived by his father Jim and mother Janet. His family released the following statement:
"Nick's family expresses sincere gratitude for all the help the Angels have provided. He lived his dream and was blessed to be part of an organization comprised of such warm, caring, and compassionate people. The Angels were his extended family. Thanks to all of Nick's loyal supporters and fans throughout his career. He will always be in everyone's hearts forever."
Angels General Manager Tony Reagins issued the following statement on behalf of the club:
"The Angels family has suffered a tremendous loss today. We are deeply saddened and shocked by this tragic loss. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Nick's family, friends' loved ones and fans."
Memorial services are pending.
Foreshock in Rancho Cucamonga
Monday was the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes Media Day, meaning it was the first opportunity for the local media to meet the players assigned to the team.
The players themselves had arrived only a few hours earlier. Catcher Chris Rosenbaum blogged from Tempe just before his departure for California. They'd barely had a chance to get their lockers and uniforms, to explore the ballpark before they had to pose for the team photo.
You only see the photo, never what goes on before. Here are some photos as the professional photographer prepared to take the team photo.
Positioning the players for the photo. Notice there are two rows of folding chairs but three rows of players. The front row sits, the middle row stands, and the third row stands on the folding chairs.
Joking around as the players are being positioned for the photo.
The team photo as shot from an observer's perspective.
After the photo shoot, most of the players passed by and I shot individual photos of them, which will start showing up in the FutureAngels.com Digital Photo Gallery in the next day or so.
Then I recorded video interviews with manager Keith Johnson and pitching coach Dan Ricabal. The two played together for the 1995 San Bernardino Spirit, then a Dodgers affiliate, that won the California League pennant. That was the team's last year at old Fiscalini Field; the next year, they moved into the new ballpark now known as Arrowhead Credit Union Park. Although they attended the groundbreaking ceremony in 1995, Thursday's opener will be the first time that Johnson has been in the ballpark. Ricabal was with the Quakes last year.
In the evening, I went over to the Best Western for the players' welcoming dinner hosted by the Quakes Booster Club. This is the first opportunity for the players to meet potential host parents who will provide them with temporary housing, and to work out local transportation to the ballpark each day. I filmed most of that too, because it's an aspect of minor league life few people see unless they're a booster or host parent.
You need Windows Media Player and a broadband (cable modem, DSL) Internet connection to watch. Here are the links:
- Manager Keith Johnson interview
- Pitching Coach Dan Ricabal interview
- Welcoming dinner for Quakes players
I'll be at San Bernardino tonight to cover the season opener. Trevor Reckling is scheduled to start for the Quakes. Kelvim Escobar has been scratched from his rehab start due to minor soreness.

With pitchers Ryan Braiser, Jeremy Haynes, Sammy Leon, and Jordon Towns, catchers Alberto Rosario, Chris Rosenbaum and Brian Walker, infielders Efren Navarro, P.J.

Bees Announce Opening Day Roster
Click Here for the Salt Lake Bees press release announcing their 2009 Opening Day roster.
Kernels Announce Opening Day Roster
Press release from the Cedar Rapids Kernels.
Kernels release 2009 Opening Day Roster
April 6, 2009 – The 2009 Cedar Rapids Kernels have broken Spring Training camp and are on their way to Cedar Rapids! The 25-player roster includes two of the LA Angels Top 30 Prospects, as ranked by Baseball America, in RHP Will Smith (#12) and RHP Manuarys Correa (#19).
The roster includes nine members of the 2008 MWL playoff team as pitchers Chris Armstrong and Michael Davitt; catchers Anel De Los Santos and C.J. Bressoud; infielders Alexi Amarista, Hector Estrella and Gabe Jacobo; and outfielders Angel Castillo and Carlos Colmenares return to Cedar Rapids. RHP Vladimir Veras, who played in Cedar Rapids in 2007 but was injured last season, also is a member of the 2009 team.
Pitching will once again be the Kernels' strong suit as the projected starting rotation features RHP Manuarys Correa, RHP Michael Davitt, LHP Manuel Flores, LHP Jayson Miller and RHP Will Smith. The bullpen looks strong too with two closers: LHP Andrew Taylor (5 saves) and RHP Jeremy Thorne (8 saves – .121 BA against).
The Kernels' offense should feature lots of speed as OF Robert Auer and INF Alexi Amarista both had over 20 stolen bases in short-season play. Gabe Jacobo (10 HR/56 RBI) and Angel Castillo (14 HR/47 RBI) should supply some power and RBI production.
The 2009 Kernels are scheduled to arrive in Cedar Rapids at 4 pm tonight (Monday) and are scheduled to play an exhibition game against Kirkwood Community College at 5:30 pm on Tuesday, April 7th as part of 'Meet the Kernels Night'.
Opening Day at Perfect Game Field at Veterans Memorial Stadium is scheduled for Thursday, April 9th when the Kernels take on the Beloit Snappers at 6:35 pm. Tickets are on sale online at http://www.kernels.com, or by calling the Kernels Ticket Office at (319) 896-7560. Ticket Office hours are 10 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday, and 10 am to 2 pm on Saturday.
Travs Announce Opening Day Roster
Press release from the Arkansas Travelers.
Team Arrives Monday, Holds First Practice Tuesday
The Travs should feature one of the most dynamic offenses in the Texas League. Mark Trumbo returns to hold down first base for the Travs after leading all Angels minor league players with 32 home runs and 93 RBI in 2008. Trumbo also ranked in a tie for second in the minor leagues with 286 total bases. One of the top hitting prospects in baseball, Hank Conger is slated to be the everyday catcher. Conger recovered from a torn labrum to post a strong second half in 2008 (.303-13-75) at Rancho Cucamonga, then led the Travs in the playoffs with 13 RBI. Ben Johnson also returns to play the outfield as well as catcher and first base. Johnson had the best season of his career posting a .262 batting average and 20 homers plus 77 RBI in 106 games at Arkansas.
Second baseman Ryan Mount also put together a great second half after an injury at Rancho Cucamonga (.290-16-49). Hainley Statia begins the season with the Travs at shortstop for the second year in a row. The slick-fielding Statia was limited to 59 games in 2008 due to hamstring injuries. Wilberto Ortiz, one of the Travs 2008 playoff heroes, will take over at third base. Ortiz batted .266 between Arkansas and Rancho Cucamonga, then collected a team-high 10 hits during the postseason.
The outfield is anchored by centerfielder Peter Bourjos, who led the California League with 50 stolen bases while posting a .295 batting average, 9 home runs, 51 RBI and 83 runs scored. Patrick Breen will be at one of the corner outfield spots after signing with the Angels in October as a free agent. Breen was named the 2008 Most Valuable Player of the independent Golden Baseball League when he hit .396 with 28 homers and 94 RBI.
Also returning to the Travs are outfielder Coby Smith (.275-2-16 in 61 games), utilityman Nate Sutton (.276-7-44) and catcher Flint Wipke. Gary Patchett will be the infield utilityman after spending the last two seasons at Salt Lake.
On the mound the Travs feature two of the Angels' top starting pitching prospects with opening day starter RHP Sean O'Sullivan and RHP Jordan Walden. O'Sullivan led the California League in wins in 2008 (16-8, 4.73 ERA), whle Walden (9-8, 2.76 ERA between Rancho Cucamonga and Cedar Rapids) led all Angels farmhands with 141 strikeouts. Midwest League All-Star LHP Mike Anton (13-9, 3.87 ERA between Rancho and CR) is the only lefty in the rotation. RHP Amalio Diaz (10-8, 4.32 ERA at Arkansas and RC) returns while RHP Trevor Bell (7-8, 3.91), the Angels' 2005 first round draft choice, rounds out the rotation.
In the bullpen, the Travs find RHP David Herndon as the probable closer. After a switch to relief midway through the 2008 season Herndon saved 17 games, second most in the Angels' system. LHP Barret Browning returns to the Travs after a strong 2008 campaign where he struck out 73 batters in 65.1 innings. RHP Bobby Mosebach (9-12, 4.62 ERA) has made the switch to relief after leading the Texas League with 177.1 innings pitched. Mosebach was returned to the Angels in March after being selected by the Phillies in the Major League Rule draft.
RHP Jeremy Hill is the elder statesman (31) on the club after posting 23 saves in the Mexican League in 2008. Hill also is the only member of the opening day roster with experience in the Major Leagues pitching 11 games with the Royals in 2002 and 2003. RHP Marco Albano, RHP Chad Blackwell and RHP Bobby Cassevah round out the relief corps.
The Travs arrive at Little Rock National Airport Monday afternoon and will hold a public practice at Dickey-Stephens Park on Tuesday beginning at 5:00 p.m.
The regular season opens Thursday night against the Midland RockHounds with first pitch scheduled for 7:10 p.m.
The Worst of the Worst
2000 Erie SeaWolves manager Don Wakamatsu (right) with Reading Phillies manager Gary Varsho, April 21, 2000. Wakamatsu is now the manager of the Seattle Mariners. Varsho is the bench coach for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Back on March 27 I posted an article about the best teams in Angels minor league history, and promised you a look at the all-time worst teams.
Well, here we go.
The top ten — bottom ten?! — teams with the worst winning percentage are:
- 2004 Mesa Angels 12-44 .214
- 1973 Idaho Falls Angels 23-48 .324
- 2000 Erie SeaWolves 47-94 .333
- 1987 Quad Cities Angels 47-91 .341
- 1998 Butte Copper Kings 26-50 .342
- 1990 Mesa Angels 19-36 .345
- 2002 Arkansas Travelers 51-89 .364
- 1980 El Paso Diablos 50-86 .368
- 2006 Arkansas Travelers 51-87 .370
- 1998 Vancouver Canadians 53-90 .371
As we saw with the best of the best, many of these are short-season teams, which tend towards more extreme results in a shorter period. If we look at full-season teams (i.e. more than 100 games), the worst ten are:
- 2000 Erie SeaWolves 47-94 .333
- 1987 Quad Cities Angels 47-91 .341
- 2002 Arkansas Travelers 51-89 .364
- 1980 El Paso Diablos 50-86 .368
- 2006 Arkansas Travelers 51-87 .370
- 1998 Vancouver Canadians 53-90 .371
- 2002 Rancho Cucamonga Quakes 52-88 .371
- 1965 El Paso Sun Kings 53-87 .379
- 1972 Stockton Ports 52-85 .380
- 1964 Hawaii Islanders 60-98 .380
Mesa was the Angels' Rookie-A "camp" team in the Arizona League through 2005, when the minor league complex was moved to Tempe at the renovated spring training site. These are usually the youngest and most inexperienced players in the organization.
Even though you might think the 2004 Mesa team had no talent, there were a couple players who went on to big-league success.
Alexi Casilla was the second baseman. He had an AVG/OBP/SLG of .258/.332/.313 as a 20-year old. He was traded on December 9, 2005 to the Minnesota Twins for reliever J.C. Romero. He made his major league debut less than one year later, on September 1, 2006. He played 95 games at 2B for the Twins in 2008.
Angels reliever Jose Arredondo was on the 2004 Mesa Angels — as a shortstop. It was during this season that the Angels decided to give Jose an audition on the mound. They discovered his mid-90s velocity and the rest is history.
Arredondo wasn't the only infielder-pitcher convert. Josh Davies, an 18-year old Aussie, was released by the Angels in 2007 and signed by the San Diego Padres, who tried to convert him into a pitcher. Josh had a 6.45 ERA in 18 relief appearances in 2008 for the Peoria Padres, and was released.
Brian Harper was the Mesa manager. Selected by the Angels in the 4th round of the June 1977 draft, Harper was traded to the Pirates for Tim Foli and is probably best known as the catcher for the world champion Minnesota Twins in 1991. He's now the roving catching instructor for the San Francisco Giants.
Click Here to listen to a 2004 interview with Brian Harper. Windows Media Player required.
The 2000 Erie SeaWolves didn't have inexperience as an excuse. It was simply lack of talent, although there were a few key injuries.
Angels infielder Justin Baughman resumed his career at Double-A Erie after missing all of 1999 due to a horrific broken leg suffered playing winter ball in Mexico. Justin was really never the same; after he retired, he coached briefly in the Angels system before taking the head coaching job at his alma mater, Louis & Clark University.
Nathan Haynes was a top-prospect center fielder, but a series of injuries were to derail his career. Nathan was actually out of baseball in 2004-2005, starting playing independent ball in 2006, was re-signed by the Angels and reached the majors with Anaheim in 2007. He's currently in the Texas Rangers system.
Catcher Shawn Wooten would go on to the 2002 World Series. But he wasn't the SeaWolves' #1 catcher. That job was shared with Bret Hemphill and Woot's West Covina buddy Kevin Lidle.
John Lackey joined Erie for eight starts at the end of the season, after a promotion from High-A Lake Elsinore. Lack was 6-1 with a 3.37 ERA and 43:9 SO:BB ratio in 57.1 innings.
Lackey would return to Double-A in 2001, but not in Erie. The SeaWolves terminated their two-year relationship with the Angels, choosing to affiliate with the nearby Detroit Tigers. The Angels wound up in Little Rock, with the Arkansas Travelers, and won the 2001 Texas League pennant.
Don Wakamatsu, Erie's manager in 2000, was promoted to Minor League Field Coordinator, meaning he coordinated all minor league operations in the field and answered to Darrell Miller, the Director of Player Development. In 2003, he moved on to become the Texas Rangers' bench coach under Buck Showalter. Wak was named the Seattle Mariners' manager on November 18, 2008, and selected several former and current Angels minor league instructors for his coaching staff.

Dominican League Prospects to Watch in 2009
Ben Badler of Baseball America lists top Dominican Summer League prospects who should play in the United States in 2009.
Two Angels made the list, right-handed pitchers Baudilio Lopez and Fabio Martinez Mesa. Click Here to read about these two young arms and other prospects.
Both should be on the Tempe Angels roster come summertime.

Story Synopsis
Episode One
February 11, 2002, at 9 pm
In 1935, Fanny and her cousin Linda are 18 and about to step out into society. Both live in the madhouse-prison-fairyland called Alconleigh, presided over by Fanny's irascible Uncle Matthew and vague Aunt Sadie. At her first ball Linda falls fatally in love with a banker's son, Tony. Soon wedding bells are ringing. Meanwhile, Fanny's childhood friend Polly has returned from India. Her relentlessly snobby mother, Lady Montdore, throws balls and parties to marry Polly off. To no avail. As Fanny finds true love with Oxford don Alfred, Linda leaves dullard Tony for sexy left-winger Christian. Topping off the turmoil, Polly makes a shocking announcement.
Episode Two
February 18 , 2002, at 9 pm
Newlyweds Polly and Boy (her mother's former lover) leave for Italy in disgrace with the Montdores, who send for the next in line to the family fortune. A Canadian and therefore a lumberjack in the Montdores' eyes, Cedric turns out to be flamboyantly gay. He hits it off with Lady Montdore and begins her makeover. In France helping Spanish refugees, Linda grows disenchanted with Christian and flees to Paris, where she falls for the dashing duke Fabrice and becomes his mistress. As the Nazis sweep across Europe, Fanny, Linda, and Polly find themselves back at Alconleigh, where Fanny's itinerant mother has turned up with her Spanish lover. But the reunion is fleeting and melancholy -- like life and love.

I am a big Techcrunch fan. For those who don't know what Techcrunch is a tech blog run by Michael Arrington. He reviews new start-up companies and well, if he writes about you good or bad, lots of people flock to you site. It's called getting Crunched.
I digress, Michael wrote a post on the 28th of March that I briefly touched on March 16th. Yes, this article pissed me off so much that I am writing ANOTHER article about it. I was so angered when I read Michael's article (Not mad at Michael just the subject of the article) that I screamed because Warner Music really is gunning for the $5 a month for each customer to pay their ISP, if their ISP volunteers to opted into the deal with Warner.
Yes, its voluntary for ISP to sign up for the "program" but once the ISP says it will take part in the $5 a month per customer scam…I mean program, everyone who uses that ISP, example, Comcast, would have to pay the $5 per month fee regardless if they download music illegally or if you download music at all.
Why would an ISP want to take part in a deal with someone like Warner Music? They don't want to get sued for being an accomplice in copyright infringement that takes place over their lines by their customers. Wow, sounds very evil of labels to do this, but then again they do sue the hands that feed them. Yes, they sued people for downloading music illegally, but I bet those people also bought music before too. Maybe there was something wrong with the product that they didn't feel there was enough VALUE in buying the music anymore.
Iwas enraged and I know my Apple loving roommate won't stand for this. She's ready to pound on Apple's door and tell them she's not paying for music anymore. Hell I'll drive her there. Who can blame her, she downloads from iTunes because it's legal. Why should people who download legally and don't download at all be charged for doing it legally or not at all.
My big question to this: Does this mean I can pay $5 a month to the ISP and download an unlimited amount of music for free from P2P sites? Does this mean my business no longer needs to get licenses for people to download the music on my site? Why should I get performing licenses from 2,000 different entities and pay 3 corporations thousands of dollars just to compensate for their losses from this, because we know they will jack up licensing prices. The Aggregators will have to pay for this mess and frankly I wish the labels would just go away already. The only one I can deal with is Nettwerk Music. They are open to new business models and don't want to take all my business money like ASCAP(publishing). When ASCAP caught wind that I make money from services on my site besides advertising they wanted pieces of that too. That's like Gwen Stefani asking for more money from Macy-Field because Coach sells their merchandise their too. IF you can't find a way to make money of your own merchandise don't ask for a cut of someone else's. It's just bad business practice.
I'll pay the ISP $10 a month if I don't have to obtain all those licenses and permissions from all the artists. Hmmmmm…..wait a second I think I have an idea.

Things can get pretty wacky on Franklin & Bash. In last night's episode, a bet was made involving fishermen, psychics and honor. "Captain Johnny" included two of the weirdest cases ever the duo's ever tackled.
The Players:
- Director: Richie Keen
- Writer: Nicki Renna and Matt McGuinness
- Cast: Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Breckin Meyer, Heather Locklear, Malcolm McDowell, Tricia Helfer, Reed Diamond, Kumail Nanjiani
Episode Title: "Captain Johnny"
Rachel and the boys wager to see whose case will bring better PR to the firm. While Jared and Peter defend a fisherman, Rachel defends a self-proclaimed psychic.
The Good:
- Hands-On Boss: Rachel King likes to get her hands dirty. Though she's the boss at a major firm, she's still showing up at court. Infeld did that once in a blue moon. "Captain Johnny" showed us a different side to Rachel; her lawyer side, and she's good. She's probably the only lawyer who can get away with defending a psychic and still look cool.
- Psychic Case: Speaking of the psychic, Rachel and Daniels sure make a great team. They took on a case that involved a psychic getting fired from her job for her religious beliefs, or so it seemed. In the end, there was an interesting twist, thus making this case one of the better ones on this show.
- Rob Low Obsession Continues: Pindar's obsession with Rob Lowe has spread on over to Peter and Jared. The two steal the star's $10,000 couch, and there's a little war going on between them now. Lowe still hasn't showed up on the show, but we're eagerly waiting for that.
Best Lines:
- "We don't take care of the sea, it won't take care of us." –Johnny
- "You guys are defending a psychic and we can't defend a fisherman. Jesus was a fisherman." –Peter
- "While this is great, this is not my pirate fantasy." –Jared
- "We're trending on Twitter." –Peter
The So-So:
- Fisherman's Tale: Once again, Peter and Jared's case was a disappointment. In "Captain Johnny," they try to help a fisherman rid himself of an outstanding fine of $25,000, that would ruin his business. One would think that this kind of case (involving pirates and whatnot) would be adventurous and fun, but that wasn't true. The only cool thing about this situation was a cute parrot, which didn't even talk (yet another disappointment).
Franklin and Bash gets better by the week. The presence of Heather Locklear has boosted the show's comedy and storylines. She's a great asset. Also, Peter and Jared might not be getting the best cases, but they're still an awesome duo.
Rating: 8/10
Franklin and Bash airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on TNT.
What did you think of last night's episode?

Junior League All-Stars go on to superstardom
By Dave Gorgon
Special to The News-Herald
Think that star on the Major League baseball team looks familiar? You may have seen him as a 13- or 14-year-old competing years earlier in the Junior League World Series in Taylor.
At least nine Junior League World Series alums have played in the Major Leagues, two are members of the National Hockey League, one is a defensive coordinator in Division 1 football and a host of players have excelled in college sports and/or drafted by professional teams.
The best known pro that competed as a teen-ager in Taylor may be Gary Sheffield, who played with Derek Bell on the world champion Belmont Heights Little League team from Tampa, Florida, in 1982. Sheffield is in his 17th year in the majors and his second season with the New York Yankees. Bell's 11-year pro career ended in 2001.
At least four other current pro baseball players competed in Taylor: Erik Bedard (Orleans, Ontario, 1992) is the ace of the Baltimore Orioles staff in only his second full season with the team. Brett Myers (Jacksonville, Florida, 1994) is a top pitcher in his fourth season with the Philadelphia Phillies. Jose Valentin (Manati, Puerto Rico, 1989), a 15-year veteran, is in his first year as a Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman. And Erubiel Durazo (Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, 1987), in his seventh season in the show, is Oakland's designated hitter.
Delino DeShields (Seaford, Delaware, 1982) played 13 seasons in the majors through 2002. Chad Hermansen (Henderson, Nevada, 1991) had six Major League seasons, including 2004 in Toronto. Shannon Withem (Ypsilanti, 1986) was drafted by the Detroit Tigers in the fifth round in 1990 and played briefly with Toronto.
In the NHL are Chris Dingman and Steve Reinprecht, Junior League teammates in 1989 with Edmonton, Alberta.
Mark "Bo" Pelini was the clean-up hitter with the 1981 champs from Boardman, Ohio. Since playing safety for Ohio State's football team, Pelini has been a sought-after defensive coach. He was on coaching staff of Super Bowl champion New England before he became interim head coach at Nebraska when the Cornhuskers beat Michigan State in the 2003 Alamo Bowl. Today, he is defensive coordinator at Louisiana State.
Matthew Cassel (Northridge, California, 1995) was drafted in the seventh round this year by the New England Patriots of the National Football League. Another football star was Andy Mignery (Hamilton, Ohio, 1994), former starting tight end at the University of Michigan.
Those still in baseball include a number of players from British Columbia, Canada, a baseball hotbed. Adam Loewen (Surrey, British Columbia, 1997) was the No. 4 overall draft choice by the Baltimore Orioles in 2002. Matt Jones (Surrey, 2001) was drafted this year by the Florida Marlins, but will play in college in Texas. Teammate Terrance Dayleg was drafted this year by the San Diego Padres.
Shawn Bowman (Coquitlam, British Columbia), who was the home run derby champion in 1999, is in the New York Mets' farm system. Cole Armstrong (Surrey, 1997) was drafted last year by the Atlanta Braves out of Chipola Junior College. Jordan Lennerton (Langley, British Columbia, 2000) was drafted this year by the Milwaukee Brewers.
Jeff Frazier (Toms River, New Jersey, 1996) was the Detroit Tigers' third-round draft choice in 2003.
Two opposing players in the 1993 JLWS wound up as teammates with the Lake Elsinore (California) Storm of the Padres system. Marcus Nettles (Chicago, Illinois) was a standout ballplayer at the University of Miami and until recently was among the fastest players in the San Diego, Montreal and Washington farm systems. Andres Pagan (Yauco, Puerto Rico, 1993) is still with Lake Elsinore.

Responsible Gambling, Craving, and Barriers to Change
Responsible Gambling, Craving, and Barriers to Change
Interested in joining this lab?
-Provide an audit of your grades
-Include a writing sample
I am looking for students who are:
-Passionate about research
Opportunities Available for:
-Graduate Students
-Honours Students
-Independent Study Students
At the heart of the research conducted in this lab is a desire to understand the causes of gambling addiction and means to facilitate responsible gambling.Topics of interest include craving, erroneous cognition/non-rational thought, responsible gambling (e.g., assessment of tools that facilitate limit setting and adherence), stress and coping responses, and barriers to behavioural change. This research takes place in the Carleton University Gambling Laboratory (CUGL), which is complete with slot machines, a black jack table, and a virtual reality casino.
More Recently, we have examined factors that hinder as well as facilitate behavioural change (self-help, professional care). Central to this line of research is nostalgic revere for the pre-addicted self. We have found (Kim & Wohl, 2015) that nostalgia (measured or manipulated) heightens readiness to change. We are in the midst of studying why nostalgia motivates change as well as the limits and boundaries of this effect.
For information about knowledge translation activities related to the gambling research produced by CUGL, we invite you to look at the Gambling Research and Training (GREaT) Hub page. A link can be found at the top of this page.

Other walks in Northumberland
Around Warkworth and Alnmouth
a beautiful beach walk, but watch out for
dangerous section
Warkworth and Alnmouth can be reached from the A 1068 coastal road. Once in Warkworth, cross the river bridge and almost immediately take the road signposted 'Beach' which after 1km will take you to a large car park and toilets. Walk down past the golf course and through the dunes to the beach. Now turn left and start to head for Alnmouth, which can just be seen in the distance. Straight away you'll see the large, concrete cubes lying along the sand. These are anti tank blocks and were probably placed further up the dunes but have tumbled down into the sand. The concrete has been reinforced with iron bars. The few remains of a sandbagged pillbox can be seen at NU 2564 0680, almost directly opposite the rusted outline of a ship which has ended up on the beach. These sandbags may well be washed away by the tides soon, but at the moment are still visible. Further along the beach at Nu 2549 0717 are slightly better preserved remains but only some walls and a few sandbags are left. The outer walls are a mixture of concrete and sandbags with the inner walls constructed of brick. Some sides are flat and others curved. Just 50 metres along the beach from here are even more scattered sandbags next to a very large, rusty metal buoy and yet more anti tank blocks.
| The rocky outcrop called Birling Carrs now comes into view and this can only be crossed on the beach path when the tide is low. It is dangerous to attempt to get over the rocks if there is a high tide and you must climb up to the dunes well before reaching the rocks. There may have been a pillbox on the south side of the Carr as there are remains of one at NU 2535 0776. The Birling Carr pillbox is on the northern side at NU 2530 0790. You need to look up to the caravan site and there, perched high on the dunes is the box. Take care when climbing up. The box is built into the dune and has the number 499 written on the back wall. One large window faces the beach with a large concrete platform. It's difficult to see the exact shape as it's covered in sand and grass but just below it you can see the outline of a sandbagged concrete shelf that has been built to support the pillbox.
|Birling Carrs - below caravans
| Continue up the beach past a small stream which has a few concrete cubes nearby. Alnmouth is very close but it can only be reached at extreme low tide. There is a fast flowing river estuary between the path and the other beach and the water is very deep. It can be crossed safely (you'll have to paddle) when the tide is at it's lowest point, but you must wait until it is obviously safe to cross otherwise it is very dangerous. Once safely on the Alnmouth side of the estuary turn left along the road and then right, walking alongside the golfcourse and follow the steep footpath climbing up the hill. Soon you'll see 4 large concrete cubes which someone has turned into dice. These protect the entrance to Alnmouth Battery which is at NU 2512 1107.
| Walk back down the hill to the beach, and now a decision must be made about whether it is still safe to cross the estuary. If not, then walk through Alnmouth to the road bridge and cross the river here. Follow the cycle path going towards Warkworth until it is possible to turn back to the dunes. If the river has been safe to cross, turn right straight away and head for St. Cuthbert's Cross on the hill. On the way to it there is a large concrete block which could well be another pillbox - it's at NU 2470 1012 and overlooks the boats in the estuary basin. Climb up to the cross and there, completely buried in the dune is a pillbox at NU 2458 1005. Only the top is visible, but it's worth sitting here for a while and enjoying the view. The path now goes back to Warkworth along the dunes. One more pillbox can be seen on the journey out of Warkworth and it is certainly worth a look. Drive back across the river bridge and head out of town, up the hill past the castle. Do not take the road to Amble, but carry on round the corner until the road on the left, signposted Togsten. About a mile down this road is an unusual box built of stone and looking like a farm building. It's on the right hand side against the wall.

Libby Garza got the news about noon Saturday.
West Texas A&M volleyball head coach Tony Graystone pulled aside the sophomore defensive specialist and informed her that she was going to replace All-American Kendra Morgan as WT's starting setter against Tarleton State later that afternoon.
"My eyes got real big, but I was excited to get the shot," Garza said.
For the first time in nearly five years, the 25th-ranked Lady Buffs were forced to start a backup setter due to a mild concussion Morgan suffered in the third frame of Friday night's conference-opening victory over Texas A&M-Kingsville when she dove into Cynthia Carter's leg.
They didn't need Morgan against the erratic TexAnns.
Helped by a lackluster Tarleton State team attack percentage (.057), not to mention more than 30 unforced TexAnn errors, the Lady Buffs (16-5, 2-0 in the Lone Star Conference) captured a 30-21, 30-18, 35-33 victory at the WT Fieldhouse.
"The girls knew Kendra wasn't feeling well and Kendra could've played if we would've let her," said WT head coach Tony Graystone, who watched Garza, a setter at Flower Mound Marcus High School, ring up 39 assists, seven digs and three kills in the Lady Buffs' 15th consecutive win over Tarleton State.
"I was pleased with the way the team responded, and Libby did a great job."
Fresh off their NCAA Division II record-setting victory against the Lady Javelinas a day earlier - a win that broke North Alabama's mark for most consecutive conference wins at 74 - the Lady Buffs never relinquished the lead until late in the third set.
WT used the hitting of freshmen Ambra Clark (.400 hitting percentage) and Jessica Scherr to keep the TexAnns (6-12, 0-2 in the LSC) off-guard for most of the match. When Tarleton State was able to dig a WT kill attempt, the TexAnns were plagued by ball-handling errors.
"We knew we had to play more as a team and not rely on just one person," said the outside hitter Scherr, who also chipped in 11 digs in the win.
"We really came out with a burst and tried to never let up."
But Scherr and company did midway through Game 3.
Up 8-1, the Lady Buffs suffered a major lapse, allowing the TexAnns to eventually tie the match and capture their first lead. All told, Tarleton State went on a 6-0 scoring surge, thanks to five unforced WT errors. Tarleton State finally took a 26-25 lead on a bad set by Garza. With Tarleton State leading 30-29 after WT's Megan Spivey slammed an attempt into the net, the Lady TexAnns were within one point of winning their first frame against WT in 55 previous tries.
But the Lady Buffs' blocking, which has been the team's most glaring weakness so far this year, emerged, as Lindsey Schaal and Spivey combined for a game-tying block, then Garza and Spivey stuffed Desiree Reed to make it 32-31. Scherr finished it off three points later with a kill that ricocheted off defensive specialist Kasey Vogelsberg.
"We've been through a lot of tight matches so we knew we could pull this out," Scherr said. "We know we're a strong team and we can pull together and get it done."
West Texas A&M def. Tarleton State 30-21, 30-18, 35-33
Kills - WT: Ambra Clark 12, Jessica Scherr 12, Lindsey Schaal 9, Megan Spivey 8, Collanne Bramblett 3, Libby Garza 3, Rachel Altman 3. TSU: Desiree Reed 12, Lacey Adkisson 10, Crystal White 6, Robyn Dillard 5, Meredith Ward 1, Carly English 1. Digs - WT: Kacie Hyatt 18, Schaal 17, Scherr 11, Garza 7, Brittani Bell 4, Spivey 2, Altman 1, Clark 1. TSU: Kasey Vogelsberg 13, Ella Fernandes 7, Ward 5, White 4, Adkisson 3, Morgan Betty 2, Dillard 2, Reed 2, English 2. Assists - WT: Garza 39. TSU: Betty 21, English 10. Block assists - WT: Spivey 4, Schaal 3, Clark 3, Garza 2, Bramblett 1. TSU: Reed 2, Shana Casteel 2, English 2, Betty 1, Adkisson 1, Katie Windham 1. Solo blocks - WT: Clark 2, Spivey 1. TSU: (none). Aces - WT: Garza 2, Scherr 1. TSU: (none). Records - West Texas A&M is 16-5, 2-0 in the Lone Star Conference. Tarleton State is 6-12, 0-2 in the LSC. Note: Due to a mild concussion she sustained during Friday night's victory over Texas A&M-Kingsville, WT setter Kendra Morgan did not start for the first time in her four-year career. She was replaced by sophomore defensive specialist Libby Garza.

John Fabian Witt (Harvard University Press, 2007)
James Wilson, Elias Hill, and Crystal Eastman are not names ordinarily encountered in American history books. Prof. Witt, a legal historian, uses their little-known stories (plus those of others) to show how law and constitutionalism have powerfully shaped and been shaped by the experience of nationhood at key moments in American history. The book covers a wide swath of history, from the founding era to Reconstruction and from the making of the modern state to post-New Deal limits.
Founding Father James Wilson's star-crossed life is testament to the capacity of American nationhood to capture the imagination of those who have lived within its orbit. For South Carolina freedman Elias Hill, the 19th-century saga of black citizenship gave way to a quest for a black nationhood of his own on the West African coast. Greenwich Village radical Crystal Eastman became one of the most articulate critics of American nationhood, advocating world federation and other forms of supranational government and establishing the modern American civil liberties movement. Dean Roscoe Pound of Harvard Law School and trial lawyer Melvin Belli aimed to stave off what both saw as the dangerous growth of a foreign administrative state.
In their own way, these individuals came up against the power of American national institutions to shape and constrain the directions of legal change. Yet their engagement with nationhood remade the institutions and ideals of the United States even as the national tradition shaped and constrained the course of their lives.

15th Anniversary of the Litchfield Jazz Festival
Kent, Connecticut
August 6-8, 2010
The green hills of Kent, Connecticut resounded once more with the sound of jazz as the 15th Anniversary of the Litchfield Jazz Festival settled in from Friday, August 6th through Sunday, August 8th. This year the main stage was again indoors in the newly air-conditioned hockey rink with a secondary tent stage outdoors. And this year, the weather cooperated with two beautiful sunny days and three starry, starry nights.
Day One: Friday, August 6th
With two emcees on handGary Walker from WBGO New York/New Jersey and Michael Gow from WZBG-FM in Litchfield, Connecticutthe festival began with a musical heavy. Celebrating his 90th year, Dave Brubeck took the stage with today's version of his quartetBobby Militello on sax and flute, Randy Jones on drums and Michael Moore on bass. Before starting his set, Brubeck was presented with an award from Connecticut's governor that designated Friday, August 6th as "Dave Brubeck Day" in the state. And then the music started with Brubeck taking the melody for "On The Sunny Side Of The Street" . Militello's sax was smooth and swinging. Brubeck jumped in and made his statement with some tasty chording and showed off his mastery of time with some double-time work. Moore followed with a lyrical bass solo. A rendition of "These Foolish Things" was next with Brubeck providing some interesting key changes in his solo and Moore displaying his technique with the bow. Notable, also, was an Ellington medley consisting of a swinging "C-Jam Blues" with quotes from the piano, a slow, moody "Mood Indigo" and "Take The A Train" featuring Militello carrying the melody. "Sweet Lorraine," one of Nat Cole's hits, was given a smooth reading by Brubeck with a bluesy approach by Militello. Another oldie was "Margie" with an arco solo on bass and Brubeck delivering part Tatum and part boogie-woogie in his solo. Of course, the last number of the set was the one the audience had been waiting forthe famous "Take Five." Everyone was completely ready for this one; the players driving each other in their solos with Jones doing an incredible drum soloone that had Brubeck standing up at the piano to watch him play and urge him on. This closer brought the audience to their feet.
Brubeck was dynamic throughout the set, with his unbelievable technique and taste, but there was something more. The Dave Brubeck that we all know is now showing us a mellow dimension in his playing in addition to his legendary mastery of the keysproving that he keeps getting better as "time goes by."
Vocalist Denise Thimes was the closing act for this first evening of the festival. In this, her festival debut, the statuesque, St. Louis-based singer was accompanied by Chris Grasso on piano, Albert Rivera on tenor saxophone, Avery Sharpe on bass and 2010 Artist In Residence Matt Wilson on drums. Opening with a swinging "I Love Being Here With You," Thimes engaged the audience with her bouncy personality and her blues-rooted delivery. The set went on with renditions of "My Romance" and Irving Berlin's "Blue Skies." "There Is No Greater Love" received a bluesy treatment with a wailing sax provided by Rivers. Thimes raced her way through a very fast tempo on "This Can't Be Love" that featured Wilson playing the melody on his drums. "Fever" was next on the set with Thimes getting the audience to add finger snapping while she started off the tune singing alone with Sharpe on bass and then building to a "fever" pitch. Renditions of "Can't Help Lovin' That Man Of Mine" and Ellington's "Don't Get Around Much Any More" followed with Wilson's brush work sparking the former and Sharpe's fine bass work on the latter. Thimes finished out the set with an up tempo version of "That's All" working with drummer Wilson to build the ending. Possessing a rich quality of voice and a blues feel (and she can belt with the best of them when necessary), Thimes is an entertaining, audience-pleasing performer.
Day Two: Saturday, August 7th

Being in an actual zombie apocalypse has got to be one of the most horrifying experiences imaginable - but it's probably the world-ending event that just about every gamer is completely prepared for. Why? Well, we've had plenty of practice putting bullets between the eyes of the undead, scavenging for supplies, and living off of limited resources thanks to some awesome zombie-centric games.
Maybe you're the type that like to prepare for the worst, and needs to bone up on gaming's most insane undead survival situations. Or, maybe you just want to play some really awesome zombie games. Whatever the case, we've got our absolute favorites ranked for your enjoyment, right here. Whether you want to mow down rotting walkers or terrifying infected, these games have you covered.
10. Dead Island
Despite its rough edges, it's hard to deny that Dead Island does Zombie killing right. The first-person adventure takes you through a tropical paradise filled with shambling corpses, each rotting vacationer just waiting to have their heads whacked off with a chainsaw-baseball bat. Yeah, that's right. You can craft your own weapons to create some impressive undead mutilators - you just have to find the right parts to build one.
Deep down, Dead Island is an RPG, so building increasingly powerful weapons as you progress is a big part of the fun. Also, all of your weapons have durability points and will snap in half if you use them too much, so upgrading them is a necessity. As far as zombie battling with melee attacks goes, Dead Island is tough to beat. There's just something about driving a knife into a rotting cranium from a first-person perspective that's immensely satisfying.
9. Dead Rising
Back in the day, the sheer number of walking dead shown on-screen in Dead Rising blew our minds. But even now, after tech improved and expansive crowds are no longer such a big deal as they used to be, the original Dead Rising is still one of the best zombie-bashing experiences you can get. It's simply a non-stop meatgrinder packed with inventive, over-the-top weapons crafted from the most unlikely things.
Photojournalist (and protagonist) Frank West is tasked with solving the mystery of the zombie outbreak in under 72 hours. Only, there's one thing standing in his way: a neverending horde of flesh-eating, dead people. The time limit encourages multiple playthroughs. Chances are you missed a few things while exploring the giant mall on your first try. Plus, fighting the psycho bosses never gets old.
8. State of Decay
There are about a billion zombie games out there, but it's rare to find one that captures the doom and gloom of the zombie apocalypse like State of Decay does. Undead Labs' open-world survival simulator puts you in control of a group of survivors as they make a home in a world infested with walking corpses.
This isn't just a shooter filled with skull crushing mayhem, you'll need to keep a close eye on your friends if your want to keep them alive. Any of your survivors can leave on a mission and never come back, or go insane and commit suicide, or die from infection. When that happens, they're gone for good; death is permanent. And nothing hits you harder than when your fully-leveled badass decides to off him/herself. Yeah, it gets pretty intense.
7. Zombies Ate My Neighbors
The only reason LucasArts' legendary top-down shooter isn't higher on this list is that its focus is on movie monsters in general. But the shambling undead play a huge part in the gloriously campy chaos that is Zombies Ate My Neighbors, considering they're the first--and most prominent--enemy that Zeke and Julie encounter. Their appearance is classic zombie: clothes tattered, arms outstretched, a vacant, goofy half-smile on their decomposing faces. But when you watch your neighbor get devoured by these rotting corpses, they become downright terrifying.
Sure, these zombies are somehow vulnerable to water; one spritz from a squirtgun is all it takes to make them explode in a spray of bones. Yet, despite their frailty, their brisk pace and unyielding pursuit of anything with a brain is chilling, particularly to a youngster first experiencing the wonders of 16-bit. And that strange, chewing-meets-laughing Grawnaha sound they make is petrifying. See for yourself.
6. Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare
What if zombies infested the wild, wild West? Well, Undead Nightmare is your answer. The Red Dead Redemption DLC has all of the characteristics that made the main storyline so great, only now almost everything you encounter is a walking bag of rotting flesh. You'll meet up with the same familiar characters from the standard campaign--who will probably be getting chewed on by brain eaters. There are new weapons and quests to find, towns to defend, and mythological horses to tame--plenty to keep you occupied well beyond the 6-hour story campaign.
The Undead Nightmare DLC is just about big enough to be considered its own game. The open-world has been covered with wandering zombies; even the animals are undead. That makes it all the cooler when you tame a zombified horse that's missing its neck meat. The transformed environment brings a completely new feel to the early 1900s open-world. With so much to do, a Western territory to explore, and zombies to blow apart with your brand new blunderbuss, you definitely don't want to miss this expansion.
5. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Zombies
You really have to give Treyarch some props for going as far as it has with its Zombies modes. World at War's Nazi Zombies started off as just a neat Easter egg you'd unlock after completing the campaign. Now, Zombies is a full blown Call of Duty staple, culminating in Black Ops 2's open world-style survival game. You'll have to explore the zombie-infested countryside in search of more powerful weapons, secret Easter eggs, and a good place to hide.
Of all the other zombie games on this list, Blops 2's Zombies is a little more "out there." You can find a mystery box that randomly drops items that include standard military weapons, alien ray guns, or explosive stuffed animals. You'll find parts to assemble shields fashioned from car doors and oscillating room fans that work as a portable power generators. Though it may be a bit strange, Zombies is one of the best reasons to gather up a group for 4-player co-op and shoot some undead monsters in the face.
4. Left 4 Dead 2
The Left 4 Dead series is the ultimate co-op zombie survival experience. If you like to go out on your own and try to be Rambo, you're as good as dead. It's all about trying to get as many of your team members from point A to point B in one piece, and that requires teamwork. Standing in your way is a horde of zombies--though they aren't the typical slow moving stumblers. The standard zombies are quick on their feet, and sprint towards you at full speed, which is absolutely horrifying.
But the standard zombies are only the tip of the iceberg. The real threats are the special, player-controlled super infected, like the original game's Hunter, Boomer, and Smoker. In the sequel, things get even more hectic with the addition of the Charger, Jockey, and Spitter. Alone each zombie type isn't much of a threat to a coordinated survivor team. But when the super zombies work together, it could mean instant death for the heavily armed humans. If you're looking for a zombie title that lets you cooperate with or decimate your friends, Left 4 Dead 2 can't be beat.
3. Resident Evil 4
Forget the series' classic tank controls and fixed camera perspective--Resident Evil 4 made the survival horror genre (arguably) even creepier, with a more action heavy over-the-shoulder view. And though it's more fast-paced than its predecessors, Leon's mission isn't without its shit-your-pants moments. RE4 has it all: mutant monsters, big undead-slaying guns, terrifying scares, and mysterious strangers selling you colored herbs out of their coat pockets.
Once again, you take control of Leon Kennedy in his lone quest to rescue the President's daughter from a mysterious cult. And you know what those cultists end up being? (Spoilers) Yeah, zombies. But these aren't your standard RE2 zombies: they're Las Plagas. So, instead of nibbling on your neck a little, they might just grow a giant worm out of their cranium and bite your head off. Oh, and don't forget about those horrifying chainsaw guys. Worst. Death. Ever.
2. The Walking Dead
It would be a grave sin not to include Telltale's The Walking Dead as one of the best zombie games of all time. While other zombie titles would have you endlessly chopping off heads, or blowing undead brains to bits with a shotgun, this point-and-click adventure explores the human side of zombie apocalypse. Instead of testing your aim, this adaptation tests your social decision-making and your nerves--because damn, there's some messed up stuff that happens in this game.
You play as Lee Everett, a convicted murderer who finds himself as the protector of an orphaned little girl named Clementine. As you encounter other survivors, you'll end up making decisions down the line that have dire repercussions for your group members. But the worst part of it is (and also the best) that you develop a connection with the characters in your party. So, when those bad things start to happen, you'll feel like it was your friend that you just saw get eaten alive rather than a mere video game character. People will die, the unexpected will happen, and decisions will need to be made. And you'll just have to live with the consequences.
1. The Last of Us
Not only is The Last of Us our Game of the Year for 2013--it's also the most intense, enthralling, and engrossing gaming experience involving undead flesh eaters. It takes you through a dangerous cross-country journey through the infected United States which has been completely overrun by plant life. In addition to mushroom-brained zombies that are waiting to rip your jugular out with their teeth, the world is filled with desperate gun-toting humans, a repressive government, and psychotic villains standing in the way of your destination. And best of all, you'll be dragging a snarky teenage girl along with you (not that Ellie is a hinderance--she actually gets pretty badass as the story develops).
Joel and Ellie's quest is as dark as it is tense. The dilapidated, creepy environments set the perfect tone for the stealth/survival gameplay that cranks up the suspense to almost unbearable levels. This isn't your typical go-in-guns-blazing zombie game. You'll have to sneak past stronger foes, conserve your ammo, and scavenge for supplies. The action-packed moments let you feel every bone-crushing, face-smashing blow, and the dramatic scenes are just as emotionally engaging. If you're looking for the ultimate zombie survival experience, The Last of Us is by far the best you're going to get.

May 16, 1974 - Premiere
It was thirty years ago that Leonard Bernstein and Jerome Robbins first talked about creating a ballet based on "The Dybbuk", a play by S. Ansky. The two men had just completed their first collaboration, "Fancy Free", which had its premiere April 18, 1944. Though the idea was never abandoned, other projects seemed to intervene. (One was West Side Story, 1957.) Some four or five years ago, Bernstein and Robbins discussed the work once again, possibly for 1973, to commemorate Israel's 25th year. Other commitments still interfered. But two years ago work began in earnest and has progressed to the point of a schedule premiere on May 16th.
The legend of the dybbuk has fascinated musicians, writers, dancers, ever since 1916 when S. Ansky's play "The Dybbuk" was first published. S. Ansky - or S. An-Sky - the pseudonym of Solomon Zainwill Rapaport, author and folklorist (1963-1920) - was born in Chashnik, White Russia. He worked as a blacksmith, bookbinder, factory hand, and teacher. From 1911 to 1914 he traveled through the villages of several countries as head of the Jewish ethnographic expedition collecting material on folk legends, hasidic tales and stories about Jewish poverty.
It was during these trips that Ansky learned about the dybbuk. In Jewish folklore, a dybbuk is a wandering soul which enters into a living person and talks through his mouth, presenting a separate and alien personality. The story of Ansky's play is about two young lovers secretly pledged to each other before birth by the oath of their fathers. The pledge is broken by the girl's father, who betroths her to another. The boy, in despair, dabbles in black arts, to his misfortune, successfully, and becomes a dybbuk which enters the body of his beloved.
Ansky's play, which has become an international classic, was first produced in Yiddish by the Vilna troupe in 1920 and then, in the Hebrew translation of Bialik, by the Habimah company in Moscow, Tel Aviv, and New York. Productions followed in German, English, Polish, Ukranian, Swedish, Bulgarian and French.
The play has inspired various artistic and musical treatments of the legend. Among them was an unusual adaptation by French novelist Romain Gary, "La Danse de Gengis Cohn" in 1967, a bitter satire that tells how the spirit of a Jewish entertainer haunts the ex-Nazi who murdered him in World War II. An Italian opera "Il Dibuk" with music by Lodovico Rocca and Libretto by Renato Simoni, had its premiere at La Scala, Milan in 1934. And in the United States, another opera also titled "The Dybbuk" was written by two brothers from Oregon, Alex and David Tamkin, and produced by the New York City Opera in 1951. There was a ballet by Max Ettinger in 1947 and another opera in 1962 by Michael Whyte. Two films were made, the first a Yiddish one in Poland in 1938 and then a Hebrew version in Israel in 1968.
Still another offspring of Ansky's work was Paddy Chayefsky's play "The Tenth Man" which opened in 1959 and had 623 performances at the Booth Theater.

Don't blame Texas guard Justin Mason for what has been a subpar basketball season for him.
Blame Longhorns coach Rick Barnes, though you can't even do that. He took the heat after the Longhorns' 71-49 victory against Texas Tech on Saturday at Lubbock.
"I took Justin Mason away," Barnes said. "I kept trying to put him in a position where he wasn't comfortable, and he got confused. But he had a great game today."
Barnes continued to show his coaching flexibility by not compounding his mistakes. He unveiled an altered offensive philosophy and a new lineup Saturday, and after a so-so first half, the Longhorns (13-4, 2-1 Big 12) responded with more flow and movement than they've had in weeks.
Mason, relieved of his primary point guard duties in favor of A.J. Abrams and Dogus Balbay, looked 20 pounds lighter. The Palo Duro graduate posted his first career double-double (15 points, 10 rebounds) and looked more like the board-crashing, follow-shot-making guard who late in last year's run to the Elite Eight was one of Texas' most valuable players. Six of his 10 rebounds came off the offensive glass.
"Today I just let it go and played like I'm used to playing," Mason said. "It helped a lot."

Now that the All-Star break has passed and the NBA prepares for the trade deadline, the San Antonio Spurs will look to keep plugging along during the final 26 games of the regular season.
It would be a surprise to see the Spurs make any moves around the deadline, considering that they are off to a phenomenal start and a lot of their key players (Tim Duncan, most specifically) are well rested.
As the final stretches of the NBA regular season approach, it is time to take a look at how the best team in the West matches up with the rest of their competition, from a grade-wise perspective.
Grade System:
A = Excellent
B = Good
C = Average
D = Not Good
F = No Chance
