Stevie Pierson on Her Love Story About Brisket
What's not to love about brisket? Author Stephanie "Stevie" Pierson is convinced that a good brisket will not only satiate your appetite but improve your life. Pierson wrote "The Brisket Book" after realizing that while the delicious dish is in many cookbooks it doesn't have one of its own. They're not hard to find either, as you can pick up a brisket at your local supermarket.
Brisket bliss can also be found it the most unlikely places — such as an Oregonian man who surprised his daughter with a brisket birthday cake. Pierson gets brisket recipes from the cream of the culinary crop as she pens a true love story with recipes.
Braised Fresh Brisket in Stout with Onions
Adapted from Simon Hopkinson's Second Helpings of Roast Chicken, Hyperion, 2001
Serves 4
The saucy British chef and writer, Simon Hopkinson, believes that what the world needs today is simple, old-fashioned food made from the finest ingredients, handled with tender care, hence this gloriously rich, deeply delicious stew. "Do not," he writes, "be alarmed over the quantity of the onions; they should be looked upon as almost a vegetable here in their own right . . ." If you can't find mushroom ketchup, (not readily available in the United States), Hopkinson suggests substituting Worcestershire sauce, using a little less because it is spicier.
1 (2-pound) beef brisket
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons beef dripping or lard
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
3 1/3 pounds onions, peeled and sliced
3 to 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon mushroom ketchup
1 tablespoon anchovy paste
1 cup stout
1 cup beef stock
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Preheat the oven to 275°F.
Season the brisket all over with salt and pepper, then dredge with flour. Melt the dripping or lard in a deep cast iron lidded casserole dish until very hot.
Sear the meat on all surfaces and remove to a plate. Pour off all of the fat and then add the butter; there is a lot of it, but this is necessary to cope with the large amount of onions. Allow the butter to become fully melted and turn frothy and toasty-smelling before carefully tipping in the onions. Stir them around thoroughly in the butter until well coated and do not add any salt (this can prevent the onions from browning).
Gently sweat over very low heat with the lid on, stirring from time to time, until they have flopped down into the bottom of the pan as a slippery muddle; this can take anything up to 30 to 40 minutes or so.
Turn the heat up a little now and, stirring more frequently, allow the onions to color to a deep, rich, golden brown. Add the vinegar, allow it to bubble furiously, and drive most of it off over full heat until the onions are dry and buttery once more. Stir in the mushroom ketchup, anchovy paste, stout, stock, and bay leaves.
Bring up to a simmer and remove any scum that forms on the surface with a ladle. Slip the beef back into the pot and bury it under the onions and liquid.
Cover with a sheet of wax paper cut to fit the dimensions of the pot and press gently down upon the surface.
Put on the lid and cook in the oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until completely tender when poked with a skewer. Check for seasoning and stir in some of the parsley. Remove the beef to a cutting board, trim the fat, and slice against the grain.
Serve the meat and the contents of the pot in deep soup plates and sprinkle with the rest of the parsley.

My former best friend's ex-mother-in-law's brisket:
Serves 6 to 8
If you love your brisket bathed in a sweet, rich, thick tomatoey sauce, this is for you. When I got this recipe, I had never made a brisket before. And suddenly, I was a star. This takes next to no prep time, uses simple ingredients, and always gets raves. I add fresh carrots for sweetness, texture, and to assuage my guilt about using so many packaged ingredients. Tiny tips: the foil just adds an extra seal. And if the sauce is too thin at the end, just reduce it in a pan on top of the stove.
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (3- to 4-pound) beef brisket, trimmed
1 cup red wine (something big and rich, like a Malbec)
1 cup Heinz chili sauce
1 cup Heinz ketchup
1 envelope Lipton dry golden onion soup mix
4 large carrots, peeled, trimmed, and sliced on the bias into 1-inch pieces
Handful chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
Preheat the oven to 325°F.
In a large heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add the brisket and brown on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer the brisket to a platter and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine the wine, chili sauce, ketchup, and 1 cup of water, and set aside.
Line an ovenproof enameled cast iron pot or other heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid, just large enough to hold the brisket snugly, with heavy-duty aluminum foil, leaving enough overhang to seal over the brisket. Sprinkle half of the soup mix on the bottom of the foil, then top with the brisket. Sprinkle the remaining soup mix on top of the brisket. Pour the reserved liquid mixture on top of the brisket. Place the carrots around the brisket, making sure they are covered with the sauce. Sprinkle the parsley over everything.
Tightly seal the foil, encasing the brisket and all the other ingredients inside the packet. Cover the pot, then place in the oven and braise until fork-tender, about 3½ hours.
Transfer the brisket to a cutting board and slice the meat against the grain to the desired thickness. Serve with the sauce and carrots.
Refrigerate overnight if you want. It tastes even better the next day, gently reheated on top of the stove.

Excellent Service
Small made,but fits ok to wear just now
Excellent quick delivery. Good communication.
Nice T shirt as expected but a little smaller than I thought it would be
Very quick quality service
very quick service
The original order went missing completely but after I complained it was sent out immediately and the delivery driver was very efficient, unlike Hermes who have been rubbish.
Ordered a size 12-13 for my 11 year old but it was small it was only 5.99 so it seemed pointless paying out for return postage, bit annoying when I ordered 3 other things at the same size and they were a bit big which is obviously better just a shame about inconsistent sizing has made me a bit wary of buying online at m and m direct.
Can't fault this company fast delivery too
Lovely quality material great price
Sizes come up small
excellent service very fast and efficient
Excellent service
When the goods were delivered they left them with the wrong neighbour. I did leave instructs on my order who the goods were meant to be left with.
Excellent prices for Firetrap. Quality tshirt
Brilliant design and materal love it

Reincarnation in the Bible

Is the Soul Immortal?
To answer this question, let us turn to the highest authority on the subject—the inspired Word of the Creator. In the very first book of the Bible, Genesis, we learn the accurate meaning of "soul." Regarding the creation of the first man, Adam, the Bible says: "Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul." (Genesis 2:7) Clearly, the soul is not what a man has but
what he is
. The Hebrew word used here for soul is nephesh. It occurs some 700 times in the Bible, and it never refers to a separate and ethereal part of a human but always to something tangible and physical.—Job 6:7; Psalm 35:13; 107:9; 119:28.
What happens to the soul at death? Consider what happened to Adam at his death. When he sinned, God told him: "You [will] return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are and to dust you will return." (Genesis 3:19) Think of what that means. Before God created him from the dust, Adam did not exist. After his death, Adam returned to the same state of nonexistence.
Simply stated, the Bible teaches that death is the opposite of life. At Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10, we read: "The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are
conscious of nothing at all
, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten. All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol, the place to which you are going."
This means that the dead are unable to do or feel anything. They no longer have any thoughts, nor do they remember anything. The psalmist states: "Do not put your trust in nobles, nor in the son of earthling man, to whom no salvation belongs. His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; in that day
his thoughts do perish
."—Psalm 146:3, 4.
The Bible clearly shows that at death the soul does not move on to another body, but it dies
. "The soul that is sinning—it itself will die," the Bible emphatically states. (Ezekiel 18:4, 20; Acts 3:23; Revelation 16:3) Thus,
the doctrine of the immortality of the soul—the very foundation of the theory of reincarnation—does not find any support in the Scriptures
. Without it, the theory collapses. What, then, explains the suffering we see in the world?
Anonymous Coward 32892972
First of all, I agree 100% with the conclusion that there is
no such thing
as an eternal metaphysical 'soul' which is the foundation of the metaphysical doctrine of 're-incarnation'.
But neither is there any metaphysical 'soul' which can go on to be punished in any metaphysical 'hell' or rewarded in any metaphysical 'heaven'.
The Doctrine of "resurrection" as a Doctrine of 'Rebirth' answers
of these objections:
There is no such thing as an eternal metaphysical 'soul'; but, at the same time, people are 'raised from the dead' to be rewarded or punished in
world for what they have done in their previous lives.
Many Scholars Agree
Many scholars agree that the Bible does not speak of an immortal soul. The Concise Jewish Encyclopedia states: "The Bible does not state a doctrine of the immortality of the soul, nor does this clearly emerge in early rabbinical literature." The Jewish Encyclopedia says: "The belief that the soul continues its existence after the dissolution of the body is a matter of philosophical or theological speculation rather than of simple faith, and is accordingly nowhere expressly taught in Holy Scripture." The Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible notes: "The nephesh . . . does not continue to exist independently of the body, but dies with it. . . . No biblical text authorizes the statement that the 'soul' is separated from the body at the moment of death."
Also, the Expository Dictionary of Bible Words says: "'Soul' in the O[ld] T[estament], then, does not indicate some immaterial part of human beings that continues after death. [Nephesh] essentially means life as it is uniquely experienced by personal beings. . . . The basic meaning of [psykhe] is established by its O[ld] T[estament] counterpart, rather than its meaning in Greek culture." And The Eerdmans Bible Dictionary states that in the Bible, the word soul "does not designate a part of a human being, but rather the whole person. . . . In this sense human beings do not have souls—they are souls."—Italics ours.
Even the New Catholic Encyclopedia acknowledges: "The Biblical words for soul usually mean total person." It adds: "There is no dichotomy [division] of body and soul in the O[ld] T[estament]. . . . The term [nephesh], though translated by our word soul, never means soul as distinct from the body or the individual person. . . . The term [psykhe] is the N[ew] T[estament] word corresponding with [nephesh]. . . . The notion of the soul surviving after death is not readily discernible in the Bible." And Georges Auzou, French Catholic Professor of Sacred Scripture, writes in his book La Parole de Dieu (The Word of God): "The concept of 'soul,' meaning a purely spiritual, immaterial reality, separate from the 'body,' . . . does not exist in the Bible."
Thus, The Encyclopedia Americana observes: "The Old Testament concept of man is that of a unity, not a union of soul and body. Although the Hebrew word [nephesh] is frequently translated as 'soul,' it would be inaccurate to read into it a Greek meaning. . . . [Nephesh] is never conceived of as operating separately from the body. In the New Testament the Greek word [psykhe] is often translated as 'soul' but again should not be readily understood to have the meaning the word had for the Greek philosophers. . . . The Bible does not provide a clear description of how a person survives after death." It adds: "Theologians have had to resort to the discussions of philosophers for an adequate means of describing survival of the individual after death."

Def Leppard's Joe Elliott offers glimpse into "Lounge"
By Gary Graff
DETROIT (Billboard) - The title of Def Leppard's latest album, "Songs From the Sparkle Lounge," spurs an obvious question: What's a Sparkle Lounge?
According to band frontman Joe Elliott, it was a special room with recording equipment set up backstage at each of the group's 2007 shows. He says as time went on, "the crew started having a bit of fun with it, putting in sparkly lights, candles, incense -- you name it. It turned into this very atmospheric little work space."
The Sparkle Lounge was the incubator for the songs on the group's new album -- its 14th studio effort and first of all-new material since 2002's "X." Final recording was done at Elliott's Joe's Garage studio in Dublin.
Most of the 11 tracks -- including first single "Nine Lives," a collaboration with Tim McGraw that is being played on National Basketball Association telecasts -- recall a vintage Def Leppard sound, which Elliott says was not an accident.
Q: "Sparkle Lounge" sounds like a kind of default Def Leppard album, something that's almost "easy" for the band to make.
Joe Elliott: Well, yeah, I suppose that's one way of putting it. There was a thought process behind it that we wanted to deliver a specific kind of record, but that specific kind of record was, if you like, a nonspecific kind of record. We weren't going to try to theme it to the point of "Pyromania," where it's got a drum sound that was definitive in 1983 ... (or) "Hysteria," when we had a definite, like, overall '80s sound.
With this one it was a case of, "Let's just hone in on the songwriting and we'll use 2008 production techniques, if you like, to make it sound more like a '70s record." It sounds very complicated, but it actually wasn't.
Q: Did doing a covers album (2005's "Yeah") before this have any impact on "Sparkle Lounge?" Continued...

Thames Water has fitted safety devices to its entire fleet of tankers to protect cyclists.
It has ordered the improvements to about 230 HGVs, including those used by contractors, amid growing concern at deaths and serious injuries suffered by London cyclists.
A company spokesman said it had been spurred into action by several incidents last year, including one involving one of its vehicles in which a woman cyclist suffered serious leg injuries. This happened in south London but Thames declined to reveal full details as there is a personal injury claim.
The initiative has seen each lorry fitted with audible sensors — which make a noise to warn cyclists not to ride on the vehicle's nearside when it turns left — Fresnel lens mirrors to reduce the driver's "blind spot", and side bars to stop cyclists being pulled under wheels.
It costs £1,000 per vehicle. Safety campaigners want all HGVs fitted with sensors after 28 cyclists died in accidents with HGVs in London since 2009.
Transport for London is considering whether lorries without safety equipment can be banned from central London at busy times.

I love my XD9sc. It it my EDC.
This is a discussion on 3913LS vs XD9SC? within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I have the 3913LS on layaway. I went in there today and took a good look at the XD9. Now, I am torn. I'd like ...
I have the 3913LS on layaway. I went in there today and took a good look at the XD9. Now, I am torn. I'd like two 9 mm someday, however, not necessarily right now - I am not sure....
The 3913LS is used w/2 magazines, period. The XD9 SC is new with "stuff" (2 mags, speed loader, holster, etc.) Same price. I am thinking the S&W first then eventually XD9 sc... just wanted some opinions on the guns.
Oh, yeah, I am middle aged female & newish to guns.
I love my XD9sc. It it my EDC.
NRA Life Member
my local female gun shop owner wears her XD 9 and loves it. She broke down and bought one as few months ago. She called my wife and shared her love
Colt 1911, XD 40,
I'd buy the 3913, I'm no fan of the XD.
"Just blame Sixto"
I reserve the right to make fun, point and laugh etc.
I never cared for XD's, just feel wrong to me. The 3913 is a very nice pistol.
You need to see which fits you best, neither are bad guns.
This is kind of tough. They are 2 different guns.
The Smith is a DA/SA. The XD has the same trigger pull every shot.
The Smith has a safety/decocker, the XD doesn't.
I wouldn't let the accessories that come with the XD sway me one way or the other. They are not high dollar freebies.
Also, you might want to look around and check the prices on used 3913's. The XD's I have seen run around $500.00 new. I don't think the used 3913's are bringing that much.
If you do any checking around, you will find that there are many folks that have the 3913, and are very happy with it. Same with the XD, so you can't really go wrong either way. You should try to shoot both, that will help you decide.
Yo Macklin, great party, but no whiskey. We go home now.
wow, tough choice both are nice weapons. you didn't mention the price of the 3913? that might have some weight on the decision. It should not be anywhere around the price of a new xd. 2 totally different triger pulls, which one feels better to you? I had a 3913 years ago and wish i kept it. i have an xd and it's one of the only weapons that has been 100% reliable. don't remember if that was the same with the 39 it's been to long. I've always been pretty impressed by the xd's reliabilty. good luck
Decided to proceed with the 3913's layaway, meaning made another payment today. I really just seem to do well with S&W also I seem to do well with "older" guns. My SW revolvers are model 10 and 49. I figured the XD is not going anywhere (to get later if still wanted) where the 3913 is discontinued (?) from production if I understand correctly. So, oldie/goodie for me for now (3913). Thanks
Good choice!

I found a used 3913 LS a few years ago and bought it on a whim. It carried and shot so well I sought out another that was still NIB, which I bought and put away as a spare.
One of my favorite carry pistols. Not the only one I carry, but I carry it a lot.
I think you made the right choice to go with the S&W 3913 over the XD. It is a matter of taste, but I think of all metal guns with single stack magazines as better balanced than polymer frame guns, and easier to shoot well.
Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the Peoples' Liberty's Teeth." - George Washington
I don't believe you will regret buying the Smith. I have a 5904 that has never hiccuped which apparently is a trait of many of the older Smith autos. The DA/SA requires a bit more practice I think than the striker systems. But you have bought a quality firearm that should make a nice addition to your collection. No knock on the XD, but the Smith has a bit more character in my opinion. The XD's will be readily available for some time. However, 39s seem to be getting a bit harder to come by. I have not personally owned one, but have often heard how great they are for CCW due to the slim design. Enjoy!
Actually mine says '3913' on it, but doesn't have the 'LadySmith' logo on the slide, but does have the gray grips. I like it, used it in the class to qualify with. It's never jammed on me.
It is a bit bigger/heavier than the Kahr or certainly the Kel-Tec PF9, but it has a feeling of solidity to it. In September/October as I was preparing to take the CPL course, I was feeling that the gun might be a bit dated by today's standards. But after qualifying with it and reading up on it in this forum and in the Smith and Wesson forums, I feel much better about choosing it as my EDC weapon.

Happily carrying the 3913, with Hornady 124 gr. JHP/XTP. Now I just need to find a decent IWB holster for it (without breaking the bank)!

If you have a loan, credit card or other forms of debt, you probably have a credit score or FICO score. If you stay on top of your bills, it will help you get a home loan without much trouble. But if it shows bad debt, open accounts that were sent to collection agencies, repetitive late payments, or if you simply have a limited credit history because you don't use credit or loans, you will need to raise your credit score before you can get good interest rates, or in some cases, qualify for a loan at all.
There are different standards for credit scores, depending on what type of loan you need. Most credit models score between 300 and 850, and the higher your score, the better.
There are 3 credit reporting agencies: www.equifax.com, www.experian.com, and www.transunion.com. You can go to www.freecreditreport.com once a year and find out your credit score.
There may be mistakes on your credit report, and you can get the mistakes fixed. Erroneous information can make getting a loan more difficult.
In order to get a conventional home loan, a credit score of 620 or above is needed. For the best interest rates, you will need a credit score of 740 or above.
There are other options, like FHA mortgage loans, which will have a higher interest rate, and cost more money in the long-run. FHA loans will typically require a credit score of 580 or above.
If you need more information about getting a home loan, or improving your credit score, contact Lincoln Savings Bank today.
FICO scores are used for more than just determining whether or not you qualify for a mortgage.

It's a brisk Saturday morning just before Halloween and bundled-up locals are milling around the Ceretana Granary on Missoula's Westside. They snack on huckleberry scones while loading up on cabbage, apples and miniature pumpkins. It's warm inside the Granary, a bright space that usually serves as artist studios. Today it's hosting Missoula's first-ever Heirloom Winter Marketplace. Missoula resident Susan Janousek pronounces the indoor farmer's market "a dream come true...It gives me goose bumps, I love it so much."
During the summer, the Missoula's Farmers Market connects people who till the soil with those who appreciate homegrown goods. Ties forged at the market sustain the community socially and economically, while the food helps to keep Missoulians healthy. But all of that ended every year in October, when the summer market shuttered. The world shrank when the summer ended, Janousek says.
Not anymore.
The new Heirloom Winter Marketplace has been a labor of love for longtime Missoula foodie Kristen Lee-Charlson. A mother of four who wants to help residents find locally produced food and one another after the snow flies, Lee-Charlson says she's meeting a need. The new market also serves "to help people realize that just because the growing season is over doesn't mean that we don't still have access to local foods [and] regional foods."
Lee-Charlson, the former editor and publisher of Edible Missoula, started a private, community-based food-buying club, the Heirloom Project, two years ago. She researched methods of area farms, ranches and orchards to determine, for example, which food producers engaged in fair trade practices and which farmed organically. She launched the buying club in her garage. It expanded into her dining room, spilled over into her front yard and then overflowed to the alley outside her Westside home. The Heirloom Project now has more than 100 members, which is "at capacity," she says.
Now, on behalf of Heirloom Project members, Lee-Charlson buys organic products from local and regional family farms and cooperatives that meet her high standards. "You name a product, we probably get it or can get it," she says. "We get everything from sea salt directly from the sea to nuts, oils, grains, legumes, produce, meats, fish and everything in between."
The buying club's popularity, combined with the perennial lament of vendors, social butterflies and foodies alike when the summer market shutters, led Lee-Charlson to launch the Winter Market. It's open Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon.
Lee-Charlson is pleased that business seems brisk on the indoor market's first day. She's keen to see that the market supports the vendors as well as pleasing customers. She says she loves learning about the relationships that farming families have with the land. "There's a story that goes behind every one of those items," she says.
One doesn't have to look far inside the Ceretana for a story on this Saturday morning. At the Granary's south end, Missoula farmer Cua Grogan stands next to a white table piled high with greens, broccoli and cabbage. She grew up tilling and planting seeds in her family's Missoula veggie plot, Grogan explains. Two and a half decades later, she runs Grogan's Harvest with her husband, Kyle. If not for the Winter Marketplace, Cua says, the summer's leftovers would likely be tilled and fed to her chickens: "We still have so much stuff."
A few feet from the Grogans, Sam and Jake Wustner from Wustner Brothers Honey talk about the 150 beehives they tend in Miller Creek and the Nine Mile Valley. Their honey isn't heated before it's packaged like typical grocery-store fare, Sam says, explaining that their honey retains natural antioxidants, enzymes, amino acids, vitamins and minerals that mass-produced honey loses during the pasteurization process. Like the Grogans, the Wustner brothers were excited to learn their selling season could continue despite falling temperatures. "Jake actually yelled out in excitement," Sam says.
Lee-Charlson says she hopes to keep the Winter Market going through spring, as Missoulians keep building relationships with the people who grow their food.
"It's a grassroots movement," she says. "It's neighbor connecting with neighbor, consumer with consumer, and really just a place for the community to connect."

The Takeaway
James Gleick's Information Overload
We commonly describe the time we live in as "the information age." More dramatically, some, like Eric Schmidt of Google, say we're in the midst of an "information explosion." But what, exactly, is information? Is it an idea? The documentation of an idea? James Gleick explores these questions in his new book "The Information: A History, A Theory, A Flood." He joins us from Tampa, Florida.

by Patrick D. Forker
Ed Holmes, the first director of the Bridgemen Junior Drum and Bugle Corps of Bayonne, NJ, died June 8 at Brick, NJ Hospital. He was 76.
Holmes served as director of the corps from its inception in 1965 through 1978. Under the course of his leadership, the St. Andrew's CYO Bridgemen first gained national prominence as a finalist at the 1970 World Open in Lynn, MA, and became the first junior corps to appear in competition at a DCI Finals in 1972. Holmes retired from the rank of director at the end of the 1978 season.
When Father Joseph Donovan of St. Andrew's Parish first proposed the formation of the drum corps, he did not have to search very far for the right person to lead the effort. Holmes was of the parish literally around the corner, and having accepted the challenge did not realize at the time the positive and profound effect he would have on hundreds of young boys and girls in the years to come.
He was a father figure to many, advisor and counselor to others and above all a true gentleman.
He would invariably mention at times through the years that although he and his wife, Irene, had no children of their own, when asked, he would simply state "We have 128 kids."
As one of those "kids," I can unequivocally state on behalf of all my other Bridgemen siblings, that we loved this man, will miss his presence and are eternally grateful that he was a part of our lives.
May the good Lord hold you forever in the palm of his hand, until we meet again.
God bless Eddie Holmes!

That said, Israel has the right to exist and to defend itself. Seems to me the only option is some kind of two-state solution with the 1967 borders (maybe).

Never buying seagate again. 06/10/2013
This review is from: Seagate SV35.6 Series ST3000VX000 3TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Surveillance Hard Drive Bare Drive
At least it failed immediately...
And I at least put it in a test machine to test before putting it on my machine with live data...the way it died it probably would have crashed it by locking up the SATA bush.
Never even fully spun up...Seatools software short test failed immediately with an error.
Other Thoughts:
Never buying Seagate again...there is no way the other HD makers can actually be any worse...I have bought 8 disks (6-1.5TB/2-3TB) from Seagate in the last 3.5 years, 2 were immediate DOA's (and had to be RMA'ed), 4 additional of the 3 year old 6-1.5tb had to be RMA'ed before the 3 year warranty ran out.

Wrestling Forum: WWE, Impact Wrestling, Indy Wrestling, Women of Wrestling Forums (http://www.wrestlingforum.com/forumindex.php)
- Rants (http://www.wrestlingforum.com/rants/)
- - Rant on the IWC. (http://www.wrestlingforum.com/rants/594048-rant-iwc.html)
Rant on the IWC.
Now, I know you people are going to post the normal "but your part of the IWC" bullshit, but I don't give a damn.
The IWC is a bitch-fest. Bitch, bitch, bitch, and it never end's. After every RAW, Smackdown, or even TNA there's topics about how "X wrestler got buried." How about learning to fucking wait until next week without jumping to conclusion's that thinking it's all over for that wrestler. Like, after RAW there was a topic about how it was a bad idea for Cody Rhodes to loss to Booker T, like it's going to be the end of Rhodes career or something. He lost one god-damn match against a Legend,and above all else, it keeps the feud going. It's that simple.
There is a thing called logic. Sadly, logic in the IWC does not exist. Instead, it's replaced by insecure bitch, whining, and complain about even the littlest thing's of a wrestling show. Sometimes it's better to actually think thing's out before jumping to conclusions in the second after something happens. If somebody loses a match, their not being "buried," if somebody is made fun of on the microphone, it's not a "burial," it's what happen's in wrestling. Did The Rock call Rikishi a "great Samoan," I doubt it. He called him a "thong wearing fatty," and I guess if they happened now, the now "overly sensitive" IWC would see that as a "burial" of Rikishi.
On a topic about " when will the IWC impode with Dolph Ziggler, I wrote this:
I just don't get it. Of course, there's fantasy booking, bitching, and the fact that the IWC can never, ever be satisfied. That's why I don't get when I see people post on topics "the WWE should give the fans want they want," because nobody in the IWC know's what the hell they want, at all. It's either being logical and letting things pan out and thinking thing's in a logical order. Or bitch, bitch, and bitch. But, if Cena won the WWE Championship people will be angry at the "status quo" and be frustrated at the WWE for not "pushing young guys." But, when they do, the internet moron's bitch anyway.
Re: Rant on the IWC.
dude shut up
Re: Rant on the IWC.
Re: Rant on the IWC.
Re: Rant on the IWC.
bitching about the iwc being a bitchfest
come on
Re: Rant on the IWC.
Generalising on multiple fronts, while also trying to remove yourself from a giant generalisation you don't want to be included in. Impressive.
Re: Rant on the IWC.
you bitched about yourself lol
Re: Rant on the IWC.
I never got the whole, "but you're a part of the IWC you can't say anything bad about it!" crap. So what. It's like if someone says, "fuck I hate humans!" but then someone says, "but you're HUMAN YOU CAN'T SAY THAT!"
oh shut the fuck up.
That being said, I don't mind when people bitch about this type of stuff. And by, "this type of stuff" I mean the wrestling business not what the OP is bitching about. People want it to be better so they bitch and complain. I actually like reading those types of posts than people trying to say how wonderful everything is. Both sides have their extremes but I tend to agree more with the people who choose to critique a wrestling show over those that love everything about it.
I did get a chuckle out of the OP when he mentioned "logic". :lmao Logic and wrestling have nothing in common really.
Re: Rant on the IWC.
IWC is hilarious. Fuck off.
Re: Rant on the IWC.
Have we not had multiple iterations of this same old tiresome, vague and overly generalising rant in the past couple months? If the 'IWC' (hey SuperSpear, how are you?) is so bad then why be a part of it, why not save yourself the excruciating horror of having to bare witness to the inane ramblings of so called moaners? Stop logging in dickhead! Not everybody on here is going to be old enough or sensible enough to understand the terms that they ignorantly throw around, you're not going to find any single type of streamlined mentality on any general wrestling forum, people from all walks of life tend to enjoy a good moan (matron!), so fucking deal with it. Some of us actually enjoy the critical discussions, arguments, theorising and guesswork that takes place on these boards, if you don't then I suggest you fuck off. Go start a John Cena fan site or some shit where you can talk about who posseses the largest amount of gaudy Cenation merchanshite, I'm sure you will find other like minded mongs to agree with in such a virtual sandbox.

text: Weekly Roundup 4 Adv. League The loss of Gilbert Arenas reverberated throughout the league. No one was more affected than Jammertime who lost his 1st round stud for 3 months. However, both Caron (Slippy) and Antwan (Darth Tater) went ballistic in his absence. Incidentally, both Slippy and Darth managed to squeak out wins. Webz managed to pluck Antonio Daniels from the WW and is still showing the savvy that put him on top of the league. In his matchup with Motown, Webz served up a slice of humble pie with a nice victory despite Nene and Ratliff pooping goose-eggs. With .003 FG% margin, Motown rolled the dice with Marko Jaric. Luckily, he never got a chance to play him and lose 3-6. Dre has revealed himself as the ultimate Flip disciple. It all starts with the offense. The Drebaby's score and score big. Then they rebound, drop dimes and play defense. The Wackjobs played an efficient game but that was like building a sandbag wall in front of a tidal wave. Darth decided to play like Linwood and showcase a bunch of bruised bananas. For good measure he got Stuckey who we all KNEW wasn't going to play. In an amazing stroke of luck…again…Pastor injured his clicking finger and was helpless as Dyess went gaga against Utah for nothing. In arguably the best matchup of the week, Max and Winless squared off. Winless came out ahead as Max is still reeling from being Bibby-less for about another month but both guys got contributions down the roster. The Low likes to say "Not in my house" when he swats lots of blocked shots but to build a house, you need bricks. That's where his freethrow shooting comes in. Jammer struck gold with Keith Bogans and staved off a bottoming out by riding Bogey's 8 triples for the week. The Bulls' downward spiral is apparently taking Ralphi down with them. Gordon. Tyrus. Their shooting disease spread down the roster as a whole mess of them never saw 30% FG%. Wash your hands guys…this is how epidemics are spread. Injuries to the TEAM made Himat stumble this week as 16 simply rolled on. 16's pick up of Jamario Moon has definitely paid off.

Saturday, April 6, 2013
3:30 p.m.
Klockner Stadium
Charlottesville, Va.

TAR HEELS RENEW LONG-STANDING RIVALRY WITH VIRGINIA: North Carolina's 2013 men's lacrosse team returns to the road this weekend when the Tar Heels match up against 19th-ranked Virginia for a nationally-televised game on ESPN3 Saturday at 3:30 p.m. The match will be played at Klockner Stadium in Charlottesville, Va., on the University of Virginia campus.
It will be Carolina's final regular-season home game of the season. The Tar Heels will host the ACC Tournament at Kenan Stadium on April 26 and 28.
Coach Joe Breschi's team carries a 7-3 overall record and a 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference mark into this Saturday's matchup, while the Cavaliers come into the game at 5-5 overall and 0-1 in the ACC. In their most recent outings, Carolina defeated Johns Hopkins last Saturday 11-10 in overtime in a nationally-televised ESPNU game while the top-ranked Maryland Terrapins defeated Virginia 9-7 last Saturday in another nationally televised game on ESPNU.
Live stats for Saturday's game will be available on UNC's Athletic Department Website, GoHeels.com, at this link. Tickets for the game are $10 for reserved seats and $8 general admission for adults. General admission tickets for youth 18 and under, seniors 60 and over and faculty and staff can be purchased for the discounted price of $6.
LAST TIME OUT FOR THE HEELS: Carolina heads to Charlottesville off a scintillating 11-10 overtime victory over Johns Hopkins last Saturday in Kenan Stadium. It was UNC's first game at Kenan Stadium in four years and, ironically, the hero in the game was named Keenan himself. Junior R.G. Keenan won the overtime face-off and scored six seconds later to give the Heels their overtime triumph before a crowd of 5,922 fans.
Marcus Holman had four points (2 goals, 2 assists) to lead the Tar Heels while Davey Emala recorded his second straight hat trick in the win over the Blue Jays. Joey Sankey had a pair of goals for UNC while Chad Tutton had a goal and two assists. Defenseman Ryan Kilpatrick assisted on both Marcus Holman goals in the game.
Freshman goalkeeper Kieran Burke made 14 saves in the match while allowing 10 goals in the UNC victory.
PLAYER OF THE WEEK AWARD: North
Carolina senior midfielder Davey Emala and Maryland sophomore attackman Jay
Carlson were named Atlantic Coast Conference Men's Lacrosse Co-Offensive
Players of the Week as announced this past Tuesday by the conference.
Davey Emala scored three goals on just three shots and in North Carolina's 11-10 overtime win over No. 10 Johns Hopkins. After scoring the opening goal of the game, Emala added a second score with 3:54 left in the first quarter to give the Tar Heels their largest lead of the game at 4-1. The native of Baltimore, Md., scored the game-tying goal for North Carolina with 1:30 left in the fourth quarter, forcing overtime where the Tar Heels won on a goal six seconds in by R.G. Keenan. It is the second career weekly award for Emala and the first since Feb. 14, 2012. Emala also scored goals in a midweek victory over Brown. For the week, Emala scored six goals on seven shots in the wins over the Bears and Blue Jays.
RIVALRY WITH CAVALIERS IS LONG STANDING INDEED: Virginia represents the longest-standing rivalry on UNC's schedule. The teams began playing in Carolina's inaugural varsity season of 1949, three years before UNC began its rivalry with Duke and 15 years before its rivalry with Maryland began.
The teams have played each other in regular-season games every year since UNC restored its program to varsity status in 1964. Carolina operated as a club team program from 1955-63. Virginia has won 47 of the previous 68 meetings in the series.
FOUR WINS IN A ROW FOR THE HEELS: Carolina enters the Virginia game on a four-game winning streak with wins over Dartmouth, Maryland, Brown and Johns Hopkins. The four-game winning streak is UNC's longest since it won four in a row (Penn State, Mercer, Detroit Mercy and Navy) to begin the 2012 season.
The last time Carolina had a longer winning streak was 2010 when UNC won 10 in a row to begin the season.
CAROLINA'S BIG WIN OVER THE BEARS: R.G. Keenan had a stellar game at the X and UNC's attack continued its potent performance as seventh-ranked North Carolina beat 20th-ranked Brown 18-12 March 27 before 1,145 fans at Fetzer Field an a national TV audience on ESPNU. Joey Sankey scored four goals for the third straight game, Jimmy Bitter had a six-point night and Marcus Holman had eight points, including six assists, matching his career high in the latter category. Davey Emala also had a hat trick in the game, his second of the season after also scoring thrice in the win over Princeton.
THE TAR HEELS VERSUS THE IVY LEAGUE IN 2013: Carolina finished the 2013 regular-season 3-0 against the Ivy League. In the month of March, Carolina defeated Princeton 16-15, Dartmouth 13-5 and Brown 18-12.
30 GOALS IN A GAME FOR THE SECOND TIME THIS YEAR: The 30 goals in the March 27 game versus Brown fell just one short of the combined total in Carolina's 16-15 win over Princeton on March 9. The 18 goals were also a season high total for the Tar Heels and the most since beating Michigan 19-5 on May 5, 2012.
THE TAR HEELS VERSUS NATIONALLY-RANKED TEAMS IN 2013: Eight of Carolina's first 10 games this season have come against Top 20 teams in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse media poll. Carolina will continue that trend when its meets #19 Virginia on Saturday in Charlottesville, Va.
KEENAN'S BIG GAME VERSUS THE BEARS: After struggling in Carolina's last loss versus Duke on March 13, junior R.G. Keenan has turned in four solid performances in a row as the Tar Heels recorded wins over Dartmouth, Maryland, Brown and Johns Hopkins. Against Brown, Keenan was a key factor in the game for Carolina as he helped keep the ball away from the potent Bears' offense. He won 19 of 31 face-offs, had 11 ground balls and also assisted on two goals. He was one short of his career highs in both face-off victories (20 versus Princeton earlier this season) and ground balls (12 versus both Navy and UMBC in 2011) and matched his career best for assists and points in a contest. Against Hopkins, he was 11 for 24 in the face-off circle against Mike Poppleton of the Blue Jays, who came into the game at 70 percent in face-off circle and leading the nation in that category. Keenan's face-off win on the overtime draw and goal six seconds later lifted the Tar Heels to the win over the Bears.
BURKE SOLID IN THE CAGE AGAIN: Kieran Burke started for the Tar Heels for the 10th straight game against Johns Hopkins and went all the way in goal, making 14 saves, just one short of his career high, while allowing 10 goals. He also had five ground balls. In the past four games, he has made 53 saves while allowing 35 goals (.602). His improvement in that stretch has been a key part of the Heels stringing four successive wins together.
ATTACK LOOMS LARGE AGAINST BEARS: Carolina's starting attack unit combined for 19 points against Brown on March 27 with Marcus Holman scoring two goals and passing for six assists, Jimmy Bitter scoring three goals and adding three assists and Joey Sankey scoring four goals and adding an assist. Holman's six assists equaled his career high set against Air Force in the season opener and his eight points were two short of his personal best set last year against Michigan. Bitter matched his career high of three assists in a game for the fourth time this year and he was one short of his career high for points (7 versus Hofstra last season). Sankey scored four goals for the third straight game as he has set and now twice matched his career high in a nine-day stretch. Davey Emala had a hat trick, the 11th of his career, as he matched his season high goal total after scoring thrice against Princeton on March 9. Sankey's hat trick was the eighth of his career and Bitter now has six career hat tricks.
SOPHOMORE DUO APPROACHING 50-GOAL MARK: Joey Sankey now has 48 career goals and Jimmy Bitter has recorded 46 career tallies. They shortly will become the 49th and 50th players in UNC history to score 50 or more times in their careers. Sankey goes into the Virginia game with 80 career points, placing him in 51st place on the all-time UNC chart. Bitter now has 76 career points and is in 56th place in career scoring at Carolina.
THE UPDATED HOLMAN NUMBERS: Marcus Holman's four points versus Johns Hopkins now gives him 180 for his career as be moved past Merrill Turnbull (7th place, 179 points) on Saturday afternoon into sixth place in all-time scoring at Carolina. His two assists versus Johns Hopkins give him 72 for his career, the ninth highest UNC total. His 108 career goals are tied for fifth in Tar Heel lore. Dennis Goldstein also scored 108 goals in his career from 1988-91.
McDONALD EXCELS VERSUS BEARS: Kieran McDonald finished the Brown game on March 27 with six ground balls and four caused turnovers as well as his first career goal. The four caused turnovers matched his career high in a game and he was one short of his career high in ground balls (7 vs. Fairfield on February 23).
WINS OVER NUMBER ONE: North Carolina's 10-8 win at top-ranked Maryland March 23 resulted in a piece of history for the Tar Heel historical archives. It marked the first time in school history that Carolina had beaten teams ranked #1 in the nation in back-to-back seasons.
Prior to whipping the Terrapins, the Tar Heels' last win against a No. 1 team came on April 1, 2012 when Carolina defeated top-ranked Johns Hopkins 13-9 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., in the Big City Classic.
That win over Johns Hopkins had been an accomplishment in itself as prior to that win over the Blue Jays, Carolina had gone 16 years without beating a #1 team. On that occasion, Carolina outlasted top-ranked Virginia 19-18 on April 6, 1996.
THIS WEEK'S RANKINGS: Virginia is ranked #18 this week in the USILA coaches' poll and #19 in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse media poll. The Tar Heels are fourth in the USILA poll this week and sixth in the Nike/Inside Lacrosse ranking.
SANKEY & BURKE NOTCH ACC PLAYER OF WEEK HONORS: North Carolina sophomore attackman Joey Sankey and freshman goalkeeper Kieran Burke were named Atlantic Coast Conference Men's Lacrosse Offensive and Defensive Players of the Week, respectively, as announced March 26 by the conference.
Sankey had a pair of career games as he led North Carolina to a victory over Dartmouth, 13-5, and over No. 1 Maryland, 10-8. He scored four goals in each game on only 12 total shots in the two games combined. The two four-goal performances set and then matched his career high. The native of Warminster, Pa., now has seven career hat tricks. His seven points against Dartmouth were also a career high for a game as he added assists on three goals, contributing on seven of North Carolina's 13 tallies versus the Big Green. This was Sankey's second ACC weekly honor of the season and of his career. Sankey was also named this week as the National Player of the Week by the Baltimore Sun and will be featured in Friday's edition of the newspaper.
Burke had two of the best games of his eight-game career as he led North Carolina in the wins over Dartmouth and No. 1 Maryland. In the victory over Dartmouth, he made 10 saves and allowed only five goals in 56-plus minutes. His .667 save percentage in the game was the best of his freshman campaign. The native of Fort Salonga, N.Y., then followed that by making 15 saves and allowing only eight goals in a win over Maryland, the first loss of the season for the Terrapins. He faced 37 shots in the game, improving his record to 4-3 and matching his career high for saves set earlier this year against Notre Dame. It is the first weekly award for Burke.
ATTACK UNIT & BURKE POWER UNC PAST TERPS: Freshman goalkeeper Kieran Burke made 15 saves, Joey Sankey rang up a four-goal game and Jimmy Bitter chipped in with a five-point effort as #14 North Carolina defeated #1 Maryland 10-8 on March 26 at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium.
The Tar Heels bolted to a 9-3 lead in the game midway through the third quarter before weathering a late run by the Terrapins, who scored five of the last six goals of the game. But Burke repeatedly came up big in the cage for Carolina, matching his career high for saves, set previously against Notre Dame on March 2. With the Tar Heels holding a four-goal lead heading into the fourth quarter, Burke was at his best. The Terps outshot Carolina 15-4 in the fourth quarter as the Tar Heels struggled to hold on to the ball, committing seven turnovers in the fourth period. But Burke made six fourth-quarter saves and the Tar Heels earned a much-needed win while evening their league record.
Bitter and Sankey led the Tar Heels with five and four-point games, respectively. Bitter scored twice and passed for three assists while Marcus Holman had two goals and a helper. For the second straight game, Sankey scored four goals, matching his career high set last Monday versus Dartmouth. It was the seventh career hat trick for Sankey.
It marked the fourth time in his career that Bitter had passed for a career-high three assists. Three of those four games have come this season, against Notre Dame, Princeton and Maryland.
LONGEST DEFENSIVE STAND IN FIVE SEASONS: Over a stretch from the first to the third quarters of the win over Maryland, Carolina held the Terps scoreless for a span of 33 minutes and 16 seconds, the longest stretch of the Joe Breschi coaching era. The last time the Tar Heels had held a team scoreless for that long a period was March 18, 2008 when Carolina held Marist scoreless for the final 34:04 of a 12-3 win at Fetzer Field.
SANKEY & HOLMAN LEAD HEELS PAST DARTMOUTH: Marcus Holman scored his 100th career goal and Joey Sankey had career highs for goals in a game and points in a game as the Tar Heels beat Dartmouth 13-5 on March 18.
Holman became only the ninth Tar Heel in history to score 100 goals when he tallied an unassisted goal with 35 seconds left to play in the second quarter, giving the Tar Heels a 5-3 lead at intermission. Prior to the next face-off the officials took that ball out of play to give Holman a well-earned keepsake. His four goals on the day gave him 102 for his career, at that point tying him with Jeff Sonke (1998-2001) and Mike McCall (2002-05) for sixth place on Carolina's career goal scoring list. Holman's four goals earned him another hat trick, giving him 14 career hat tricks.
Joey Sankey's four goals were a new career high and his sixth career hat trick. He had scored three goals in a match on five previous occasions (versus Mercer, Lehigh, Duke and Maryland in 2012 and versus Air Force in 2013). His three assists were one short of his career high set against Princeton on March 9. His seven points broke his previous career high of six (vs. Mercer and Duke last season and Princeton this year).
FIRST CAREER GOALS: A pair of North Carolina players tallied the first goals of their careers in the Tar Heels' 13-5 win over Dartmouth on March 18. Senior defensive midfielder William Scroggs scored in the opening minute of the fourth quarter on a fast break to notch his initial tally. Later in the fourth quarter, freshman attackman Patrick Kelly scored an unassisted goal, earning the first marker of his career.
GOOD ON THE DEFENSIVE END: Carolina allowed only five goals in its 13-5 win over Dartmouth March 18. That was the fewest goals given up by UNC since a 19-5 win over Michigan on May 5, 2012. The last time Carolina has allowed fewer than five goals was February 13, 2010 when the Tar Heels beat Bryant 5-4 in Chapel Hill.
Goalkeeper Kieran Burke had 10 saves in the win over the Big Green while allowing five goals. His .667 save percentage was the best of his seven-game career.
In Carolina's 10-8 win over Maryland, the Tar Heels gave up their fewest goals in a winning effort against an ACC team since March 26, 2011 when Carolina won 11-6 at Maryland. Burke matched his career high for saves in a game with 15 versus the Terps.
GIVING UP 15 AND WINNING: Princeton's high-powered offense was all the Tar Heels could handle as the Tigers proved their mettle on the offensive end of the field in Carolina's 16-15 win over the Tigers on March 9. But the Tar Heels battled back to score one more time than Princeton to come out with the victory. The 15 goals were the most conceded by Carolina in a victorious situation since UNC beat top-ranked Virginia 19-18 at Fetzer Field on April 6, 1996.
OFFENSIVE STANDOUTS VERSUS PRINCETON: Carolina had nine different goal scorers in the win over Princeton March 9 with Jimmy Bitter, Chad Tutton and Davey Emala each scoring three goals. Bitter also had three assists in the game, giving him six points in the match, just one short of his career high set against Hofstra on April 14, 2012. Joey Sankey finished with six points, as well, on two goals and four assists. Sankey's six points matched his career high in a game, a total he eclipsed in the win over Dartmouth on March 18. Sankey's four assists were a career high for the sophomore attackman. On six different occasions as a freshman, he had recorded three in a game. Emala's three goals were the most he had scored since tallying four in the opening game of his junior season against Penn State on February 11, 2012. Tutton also matched his career high for goals in a game. He also had three against Mercer, Virginia and Duke last season.
KEENAN'S CAREER DAY: Another key in the win over Princeton was R.G. Keenan's work at the face-off X for Carolina. Facing four different Princeton face-off men, Keenan won 20 of his 34 attempts and had a game-high eight ground balls. The 20 face-off victories were a career high for Keenan, who took every draw in the game for Carolina. His previous best total was 19 face-off victories against Penn State on February 11, 2012. It marked only the sixth time in UNC history that a Tar Heel player has won 20 or more face-offs in a match. Shane Walterhoefer did it four times, including a school record 23 wins against Ohio State in 2008 while Todd Oudemool was the long-time record holder with 22 wins against Towson in 1989. Keenan has won 15 or more face-offs in a game 12 times in his career. Only 12 times during the 2013 NCAA Division I season so far has a player won 20 or more face-offs in a game.
A STEAK OF ONE-GOAL GAMES: Prior to the game against Duke on March 13, Carolina played four successive games decided by a single goal with a loss to Massachusetts 12-11, a win over Fairfield 10-9, a triple overtime loss to Notre Dame 10-9 and the 16-15 win over Princeton. The last time that the Tar Heels had played four straight games decided by a single goal came in 2009 when during a mid-season streak Carolina lost to Maryland 8-7, beat Johns Hopkins 10-9 in overtime, lost to Virginia 11-10 and beat Ohio State 12-11. In 1996, Carolina played a string of five successive games decided by a single goal during a mid-season stretch. During that particular stretch, UNC lost to Duke 11-10, beat Maryland 17-16, lost to Johns Hopkins 9-8, beat Virginia 19-18 and beat Notre Dame 11-10.
SANKEY SHARES ACC PLAYER OF WEEK NOD: North Carolina sophomore attackman Joey Sankey shared Atlantic Coast Conference Men's Lacrosse Offensive Player of the Week honors on March 12, 2013. Sankey had a career-high four assists and matched his career high with six points in Carolina's 16-15 upset win over No. 5 Princeton on March 9. His previous career high for assists was three, and his six points matched a career high he achieved twice in his freshman year. He also led all-non Tar Heel faceoff men with five ground balls in the contest. The native of Warminster, Pa., has tallied multiple goals in six of seven games played this season.
HOLMAN NAMED SENIOR CLASS AWARD CANDIDATE: UNC senior captain Marcus Holman (Baltimore, Md.) was named February 20 as one of the final 20 candidates for the 2013 Senior CLASS Award in men's lacrosse. Ten finalists for the award will be named later this spring. Carolina has had three previous Senior CLASS Award finalists - Fletcher Gregory in 2007, Grant Zimmerman in 2009 and Ryan Flanagan in 2011.
SEEKING ANOTHER DOUBLE DIGIT WIN SEASON: Despite playing against one of the nation's toughest schedules, the Tar Heels are seeking a double digit win total for the fifth successive year under the tutelage of head coach Joe Breschi, who was hired in June 2008.
Last year, Breschi became only the second coach in UNC history to win 10 games in each of his first four seasons as head coach. Dave Klarmann also accomplished the feat from 1991-94. No Tar Heel coach has ever won 10 or more games in his first five seasons as head coach
Over his first four seasons, under Breschi's leadership, UNC went 12-6 in 2009, 13-3 in 2010,10-6 in 2011 and 11-6 in 2012.
Prior to 2009-12, the last time Carolina had patched together four successive seasons with 10 or more wins was 1989-94 when the Tar Heels had at least double digits in wins six years in a row.
Contrast the current success with the fact over a 12-year span from 1997-2008, Carolina got to the 10-win plateau only twice, going 10-5 in 2004 and 10-6 in 2007.
TAR HEELS AND CAVALIERS MEET FOR THE 69TH TIME SATURDAY: North Carolina and Virginia will be meeting for the 69th time on the lacrosse field when they meet up Saturday afternoon in Charlottesville, Va. Virginia leads the all-time series 47-21. The Cavaliers have won 19 of the past 22 meetings against the Tar Heels and beaten the Tar Heels eight consecutive times in regular-season meetings between the two teams. Carolina did win the most recent meeting between the two squads, winning 11-9 at Klockner Stadium on April 20, 2012 in the ACC Tournament semifinals.
UNC VERSUS RANKED OPPONENTS UNDER COACH BRESCHI: North Carolina has played nationally-ranked opponents 49 times in Joe Breschi's five-year coaching tenure. UNC is 28-21 in those games. Conversely, the Tar Heels are 25-3 against unranked opponents in his five seasons. Breschi is 53-24 overall at Carolina in his five seasons as head coach.
During Breschi's tenure, UNC's only losses to unranked teams came to Ohio State in 2011 and to Lehigh and Pennsylvania in 2012.
CAROLINA IN ONE-GOAL DECISIONS: Prior to Joe Breschi taking over as head coach in 2009, UNC went 1-7 in games decided by one goal from midway through the 2004 season through the end of the 2008 campaign.
Carolina has improved tremendously in one-goal games since Breschi arrived for the 2009 season. UNC is 13-9 in games decided by one goal over the past five years. Last Saturday, Carolina defeated Johns Hopkins 11-10 in overtime. It was UNC's first overtime win in almost two years. Prior to beating Hopkins, Carolina's last overtime win came against Notre Dame 9-8 on May 6, 2011.
A YOUTHFUL STARTING LINEUP: During the first 10 games of the season, the Tar Heels have relied on a youthful set of players to compete against a host of nationally-ranked opponents. Particularly on the defensive end, the Tar Heels are playing a lot of young players.
The starting lineup against the Johns Hopkins Blue Jays last Sunday included three seniors (Marcus Holman, Davey Emala, Kieran McDonald), one junior (Jordan Smith), three sophomores (Jimmy Bitter, Joey Sankey, Chad Tutton) and three freshmen (Steve Pontrello, Evan Connell, Kieran Burke).
The Tar Heels have been playing anywhere between 25 and 30 players on average in a game. The depth chart over the past several games has included four seniors, eight juniors, seven sophomores and seven freshmen.
Carolina has one of the youngest rosters in the nation with 57.8 percent of the team composed of freshmen and sophomores, including 33.3 percent of the squad size consisting of freshmen.
SCORING STREAKS FOR TAR HEEL PLAYERS: Senior attackman Marcus Holman has recorded at least one point in 25 successive games. His streak started on February 12, 2012. During the past 25 games he has tallied 60 goals and added 57 assists for 117 points. His 25-game point streak equals the ninth longest run amongst NCAA Division I players.
Holman has scored a goal in each of the past 25 games and he has recorded at least one assist in 23 of the past 25 games. His goal-scoring streak is the fifth longest amongst active NCAA Division I players.
Jimmy Bitter has recorded at least one point in 20 successive games dating back to March 16, 2012. He has scored at least one goal in 18 of the past 20 games.
Joey Sankey has gone 14 successive games with at least one point, a streak dating back to April 20, 2012. During that scoring run, he has recorded goals in 13 of the past 14 games.

HOLMAN IN UNC CENTURY CLUB IN POINTS: Senior attackman Marcus Holman has recorded 47 points during the 2013 season.
Holman is one of just 36 players in UNC history to reach the 100-point plateau. He currently is in sixth place in Carolina history with 180 career points. John Webster (1990-93) is in fifth place with 188 points.
Holman scored five goals in UNC's win over Fairfield on February 23 after recording six assists in the season opener against Air Force on February 8. He also had six assists against Brown on March 27. His five tallies against the Stags is one goal short of his career high of six established against both Michigan and Denver in 2012.
HOLMAN ON UNC GOAL & ASSIST CHARTS: Senior Marcus Holman has scored 108 goals in his career at UNC. That number equals the fifth highest total in Tar Heel history. Dennis Goldstein (1987-90) also ranks fifth with 108 goals. With four goals against Dartmouth on March 18, he became only the ninth Tar Heel to ever reach the 100-goal standard. Holman's 108 goals is the 11th most among all NCAA Division I players currently active.
Holman has registered 72 career assists. That is the ninth most in Tar Heel history. Holman is currently in tied for 10th place in career assists amongst all active NCAA Division I players.
ASSISTS IN A GAME: When Marcus Holman recorded six assists in Carolina's season-opening victory versus Air Force on February 8, it marked the most assists in a game by a Tar Heel player in 16 years. The last time a UNC player had as many as six assists in a game was April 12, 1997 when Spencer Deering recorded six assists against Delaware. Holman equaled that six-assist total against Brown on March 27.
CAREER GOAL HIGHS VERSUS AIR FORCE: Three Tar Heel players either set or matched their career highs for goals in a game when Carolina beat Air Force 16-8 in the opening game of the season on February 8.
Sophomore Jimmy Bitter scored five goals against the Falcons, breaking his previous career high of four goals against Hofstra on April 12, 2012. Junior Ryan Creighton tallied three goals in the win over Air Force. He had scored two goals in a game on four prior occasions. Sophomore Joey Sankey had a hat trick against the Falcons, equaling his career high. He also had four hat tricks in his freshman year in 2012. Sankey has scored four goals in each of the past three games for the Tar Heels after posting five previous three-goal games.
KEENAN'S UPDATED FACEOFF NUMBERS: R.G. Keenan has now won 519 face-offs in his career heading into the game against Johns Hopkins. That is the second most face-off wins in UNC history. Against Fairfield, he moved passed Jude Collins (1993-96), who now ranks fourth in all-time face-off wins with 429. Against Princeton, Keenan passed Kevin Frew (2001-04), who now ranks third with a total of 446 face-off victories. Shane Walterhoefer (2006-09) is the UNC career leader with 723 face-off victories.
Keenan has 281 career ground balls, the seventh most in UNC history.
THE CLEARING GAME: North Carolina is currently clearing at an 87.2 percent success rate during the 2013 season, including an 14 for 15 performance against Johns Hopkins on March 30. There are only seven seasons in NCAA Division I lacrosse history in which teams have cleared at least 90 percent of the time successfully. North Carolina has two of those seasons, including the fifth best (.905 in 1988) and the sixth best (.902 in 2012).
UNC AMONG ATTENDANCE LEADERS: The Tar Heels are amongst NCAA Division I attendance leaders in 2013. UNC is third in average home attendance at 2,413 per game and seventh in all games attendance at 2,838 per contest. UNC trails only Syracuse and Maryland in average home attendance. UNC has drawn 16,892 fans for its first seven home games.
BURKE FIRST TRUE FRESHMAN STARTER IN GOAL SINCE 2002: True freshman Kieran Burke of Fort Salonga, N.Y., has started the first 10 games of the season for the Tar Heels in goal. He is the first true freshman to start for the Tar Heels from the opening game of a season since Paul Spellman in 2002. Grant Zimmerman started for the Tar Heels in 2006 as a red-shirt freshman for the second half of that campaign.
Burke recorded a career high 15 saves in UNC's triple overtime loss at Notre Dame on March 2 and matched that total in UNC's win at Maryland on March 23. He had a season best save percentage of .667 against Dartmouth.

Holman led the Tar Heel attack unit, which produced 10 goals and 8 assists in North Carolina's 16-8 season-opening win over Air Force. The native of Baltimore, Md., had two goals and six assists for the Tar Heels, the most assists in a game by a Tar Heel since April 12, 1997. His eight points were just two short of his career high of 10 and matched his second highest total in his career.
SIX TAR HEEL GAMES ON ESPN PLATFORMS: Six UNC men's lacrosse games are being televised this year on the ESPN family of networks. Four Carolina games will air on ESPNU and two more on ESPN3.

On December 13, the MLL conducted its annual supplemental draft. Thomas Wood, '12, was taken in the second round by the Rochester Rattlers with the 12th overall pick.

FACE-OFF PRESEASON ALL-AMERICAS: Four Tar Heel players notched spots on the Face-Off Yearbook preseason All-America Team for 2013. Marcus Holman was named first team on attack and R.G. Keenan was named second team at the face-off position. Attackmen Jimmy Bitter and Joey Sankey were both tapped for honorable mention accolades.
HOLMAN ELECTED SINGLE CAPTAIN: Senior Marcus Holman was elected as the sole captain of the 2013 Tar Heels, the first time that has happened in 23 years. According to research done through Athletic Communications archives, other single captains have been Randy Roden in 1973, Tom Federico in 1991, Randy Cox in 1984, Paul Fitzpatrick in 1989 and Joe Breschi in 1990.
FOUR TAR HEELS EARN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RINGS: Four current and future Tar Heel players won gold medal rings at the U19 World Championships in Finland last July. Freshmen midfielders Brent Armstrong, Steve Pontrello and Michael Tagliaferri all played for the U.S. side and midfielder Stephen Kelly, who signed a National Letter of Intent with Carolina last November and will enroll in UNC next August, was also a member of the U.S. Team. Carolina sophomore midfielder Chad Tutton was a member of Team Canada, which captured the silver medal.
CAROLINA'S STELLAR MARK IN NON-CONFERENCE GAMES: UNC's record in non-conference games continues to be one of the best in the nation over the past eight seasons.
The Tar Heels have won 66 of their past 77 games against non-conference teams dating back to April 15, 2006. In Joe Breschi's five seasons as head coach, the Tar Heels are 45-8 against non-conference teams. The only losses were to Notre Dame in 2009, to Ohio State and Johns Hopkins in 2011, to Lehigh, Pennsylvania and Denver in 2012 and to Massachusetts and Notre Dame in 2013.
CAROLINA'S DOUBLE DIGIT SCORING GAMES: In Coach Joe Breschi's five years as head lacrosse coach at UNC, Carolina's success has clearly been tied to hitting the 10-goal plateau in a game.
In fact UNC's 12-11 loss to Massachusetts on February 16, marked only the eighth time in Breschi's coaching tenure that the Tar Heels have lost when they have reached the 10-goal plateau. UNC has scored at least 10 goals in a game in 53 of 76 games under Coach Breschi's direction dating back to the opening game of the 2009 season. Carolina is 46-8 in those 53 games, losing only 11-10 to Virginia on April 4, 2009, 15-13 to Duke on April 26, 2009, 12-11 to Duke on May 17, 2009, 11-10 to Virginia on April 9, 2011, 13-11 to Duke on March 16, 2012, 15-10 to Virginia on April 7, 2012, 16-14 to Denver on May 12, 2012 and 12-11 to Massachusetts on February 16, 2013.
In the 23 games under Coach Breschi's tutelage in which the Tar Heels have not reached the 10-goal mark, UNC has not fared nearly as well as when scoring in double figures. In fact their record in those 23 games is just 7-16.
NEAR DOMINANCE AT HOME UNDER BRESCHI: UNC is 32-7 in home games in Coach Joe Breschi's five years at the helm of the Tar Heels. That's a winning percentage of 82.1 percent.
UNC's only home losses during Breschi's four-year tenure include regular-season and ACC Tournament games to Duke in 2009 (both at Kenan Stadium), a regular-season loss to Duke in 2011, an NCAA Tournament loss to Maryland in 2011, regular-season losses to Lehigh and Virginia and an NCAA Tournament loss to Denver in 2012 and a regular-season loss to Duke in 2013.
HEAD COACH JOE BRESCHI: Joe Breschi is now in his fifth season as the head coach at his alma mater. His Tar Heel teams have a cumulative record of 53-24 for a winning percentage of 68.8 percent. He is in his 16th year overall as a collegiate head coach, including 11 seasons at Ohio State prior to coming to Chapel Hill. His career coaching record is 145-87 and his career winning percentage is 62.5 percent.
CAROLINA SNARES 250TH ALL-TIME WIN HOME VICTORY: Carolina's 11-10 win over Maryland on March 24, 2012 marked the 250th all-time win for the Tar Heels in home games. North Carolina will head into its next home game against High Point on April 19 with an all-time record of 257-119-2 in home games. UNC has a 68.2 winning percentage all-time in history in home games.
ANOTHER SEASON OPENING WIN: Carolina's 16-8 win over Air Force in the 2013 season opener was the 15th victory in a row in a season opener for the Tar Heels. The last time UNC lost a season opener was February 22, 1998 when the Tar Heels fell 13-12 to Butler at Fezter Field.
THE ALL-TIME RECORD: North Carolina has an all-time record of 438-272-2 in the sport of men's lacrosse. That is a winning percentage of .614.
NEXT UP FOR THE TAR HEELS: After meeting Virginia on Saturday, Carolina will have a week to prepare for its next game when the Tar Heels travel to Long Island to meet Hofstra on Saturday, April 13. The Tar Heels and the Pride will face off at James M. Shuart Stadium at 7 p.m.

73 percent of new jobs created in last five months are bureaucratic
posted at 9:00 am on December 8, 2012 by Erika Johnsen
Hey, I've got a neat idea — why don't we just keep growing the government, until we all can have government jobs? That can work, right?
Seventy-three percent of the new civilian jobs created in the United States over the last five months are in government, according to official data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. …
In the same five-month period since June, the number of people employed by government increased by 621,000 to 20,559,000. These 621,000 new government jobs created in the last five months equal 73.3 percent of the 847,000 new jobs created overall.

Israeli police on Monday shot dead a man in occupied east Jerusalem after he drove an excavator into a bus, turning it over.
The excavator crashed into an empty bus that hit another vehicle, and a policeman opened fire, killing the driver, according to an Israeli police spokeswoman who called the dead man a "terrorist."
Mayor Nir Barkat praised the police officer's "resourcefulness."
One Israeli who was run over by the tractor before it rammed the bus was also killed, Israeli media reported.
But it was unclear if the tractor driver intentionally ran him over, or if he died using himself as a human shield to protect the bus.
Israeli media identified the tractor driver as Mohammed Naif Ja'abis.

My grandmother is incapacitated due to a stroke ( in hospital ) .

The staff then questioned who my father was when he tried to visit . My father and mother eventually had to leave because my uncle began verbally attacking them saying that he would get a court order against my mother on the basis that he thinks she is " bad " . Other than my uncle being somewhat mentally unstable , can he just omit his sibling's names like that , and is there any basis for slander / harassment charges on him by my parents ?

Putting SYSTM Smartphone Cases to the Test
A tsunami of protective cases soon follows every major smartphone release. Some are functional, some are stylish -- but few are both, and most are forgettable. So when we were offered a trio of new cases from SYSTM to try out on an iPhone 5, we were understandably skeptical.

2 pedestrians struck while in crosswalks - Hawaii News
There are 61 comments on the Honolulu Star-Bulletin story from Nov 4, 2009, titled 2 pedestrians struck while in crosswalks - Hawaii News. In it, Honolulu Star-Bulletin reports that:Two pedestrians were critically injured yesterday when they were struck in crosswalks in separate traffic accidents on Oahu.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
#1 Nov 4, 2009
These drivers regardless of age have to really clamp down on their brakes.In the morning on Kapiolani they just drive thru the crosswalk while two other lanes are letting people cross..Honolulu drivers are ignorant and stupid.On Date Street last night a woman in a SUV driving in and out of traffic,ON DATE STREET!!Come idiots think straight..
#2 Nov 4, 2009
The guy in Aiea got hit because the lady was running a red light.
Worst cars were driving around him as he lay on the ground. Finally 2 military guys stopped and blocked traffic to keep the guy from getting runned over again.
Hawaii drivers are idiots. I have to use crosswalks everyday to get to work. I see red light runners every time. I personally think it safer to jaywalk because when you use the cross walk you're trusting these idiots will stop.
#3 Nov 4, 2009
where are the cops to enforce red lit runners?? in town there are few cops driving the streets. the only time u see them is at roadwork sites "bsing", zippys and 7-11...
#4 Nov 4, 2009
Yes it is very SAD that the COPS don't go after people who run red lights and who speed....... I have noticed on a few occasions where people will run red lights by speeding and a COP will be watching but do nothing but "SHAKE HIS HEAD" SOME COPS ARE JUST PLAIN LAZY..........
#5 Nov 4, 2009
Red light cameras?
Oh, now we might also get tickets too- so NO
United States
#6 Nov 4, 2009
The police are doing a great job. Our department is among the top in the nation. When they are at Zippy's they are on their official lunch break. I have never seen them wasting time. They are very efficent and are worth every penny!!! The drivers are at fault here. Although the red light means to slow down, people just keep going. Slow down on the red, and yield right of way!
#7 Nov 4, 2009
What do you expect when an old lady is driving and an old lady is crossing the street? Both are'nt careful and an accident or death is always the outcome.
#8 Nov 4, 2009
Everyday I see pedestrians walk against the "Don't Walk", and step out infront a vehicle without looking. Also more drivers are breaking the law and talking on the cell while driving and are lost to the world. Cell phone drivers should be arrested and charged with a felony. Its's just as dangerous as waving a loaded gun around. Come on Legislators, get some balls and make some laws to get rid of law breakers.
#9 Nov 4, 2009
Red Runner is correct, I've seen lots of cops watch red light runners and stop sign runners and do nothing. The are only dreaming of what they will have for lunch. 99% lazy cops in HPD. Now we will have a lazy good for nothing Chief Putzulu.
#10 Nov 4, 2009
They should furlough the cops 10 days a month, they are lazy and do nothing for the high pay. Furlough half of the cops and save all the tax money and crime probably will go down by 50%. Cops of 50 years ago were idiots and now the cops are much worst then the old days. But keep the very few that are dedicated and hard working. Give them bonuses and fire 70% of HPD.

I'm amazed that hundreds of pedestrians aren't run over daily. They cross on "Don't Walk" and don't look to see if cars are coming. But cops don't like to ticket old stupid ladies so they eventually get run overed and die.
You cannot tell stupid pedestrians what to do, let them die.

Yes, more drivers are inattentive to pedestrians and red lights. Bring in the cameras. Those who obey the laws have no complaints, it's only the law-breakers that don't want cameras.

Hawaii is #1 in the nation for highest percentage of pedestrian deaths per fatal accident. In other words, if there's a fatal accident in Hawaii involving a motor vehicle, chances it's a pedestrian are the highest in the country. It's a mind-set that's hard to change and spotty law enforcement doesn't help. Even cops run over pedestrians in the crosswalk. See:

As a driver, I'm frustrated how pedestrians forget to look for traffic before stepping off the curb or walking across a parking lot. Seems they feel they have the right of way so don't bother to be defensive walkers. Sad, since pedestrians will be on the losing end of an
accident everytime!
I try not to walk on streets because there are inattentive drivers everywhere. I would drive a block to avoid walking to decrease being a target for drivers who don't respect pedestrians, even the slow and rude ones.

I'm not making excuses for some of the stupid vehicle operators driving the roads, and there are some really stupid ones, but there a lot of equally stupid pedestrians, as well. Those who don't look left or right while crossing the street, the ones texting or talking on cell phones, the ones that turtle walk, those who are stuffing their mouths with food, those who walk in a group more interested in the conversation than what is going on around them, the indecisive ones who will decide at an unsafe time to step out in front of a vehicle, etc., etc., etc. We've all seen them. Pedestrians need to be vigilant while crossing the street and remember the vehicle will always come out the winner, no doubt about it.

You forgot to Hawaii is in the top 3 in the nation for hitting bicyclist. Hawaii averages 1 hit bicyclist per day.

It doesn't make a difference if you're in the crosswalk or not. Sometimes you are safer crossing out of the crosswalk because you're more aware of the oncoming cars.

The worst drivers that I have ever had the pleasure of sharing the road with are in Honolulu and the police lead the way.

Make every driver take a yearly driving test. This should include bus drivers. Trust no one at any intersection to be aware of pedestrians.

Generally, courts don't want to second-guess difficult business decisions. That's particularly true for reductions in force.
Courts understand that during a RIF, perfectly competent employees may lose their jobs.
Any legitimate business reason can back up that decision.
Just make sure you document the reason before you terminate anyone.
Recent case: Robert, who was age 60 at the time, lost his purchasing job when TSS Technologies cut its staff. Just before, the company had hired two younger buyers to work with a new client. TSS Technologies explained that it decided to keep the new buyers because the new client wanted consistency.
Plus, the new hires had experience using software that was going to replace the system Robert knew.
Robert sued, alleging age bias.
But the court tossed out his case. It reasoned that the employer's business reason for keeping the younger buyers was legitimate. Plus, Robert admitted he didn't know the new software and thus was a reasonable choice for the RIF, even though he was a competent employee. (Trapp v. TSS Technologies, No. 11-3108, 6th Cir., 2012)
Final note: In this case, the younger employees already knew how to use the new software. That's different than a situation in which the employer has to provide software training. Denying training to older workers but providing it to younger ones can be age discrimination in and of itself.
If training serves as the basis for picking who goes and who stays, that's additional discrimination.

Yeah I've been noticing the description '4c' more and more, recently. I always thought (though pretty useless and a really narrow way of classifying what is essentially millions of unique heads of curls, kinks, coils, etc) 4a meant visibly clumping curls and coils all the way down to coffee stirrer sized, and 4b was non-clumping kinks, essentially.
I have a mixture off all sorts- pen sized, pen-spring, coffee stirrer, and loads of the non-clumping stuff, so I just describe myself as in the 4's (though if people want a more accurate description, leaning more towards 4b). I just find it all very subjective and confusing, and this "4c" has me even more confused than ever (as apparently is whoever coined the terms 'kinky crimpy' and 'kinky ziggly')
