The football factory that is Louisiana rarely if ever slows production, though there are some years that stand out more than others.
The Class of 2001 has long been the standard by which other Louisiana recruiting classes are judged. Seven members of The Advocate's Super Dozen that year went on to play in the NFL, among them Michael Clayton, Marcus Spears and Brandon Jacobs.
The Class of 2011 was mentioned in that same breath with players like Anthony "Freak" Johnson, La'El Collins, Jeremy Hill and Jarvis Landry.
For all the glitter and glory those classes produced, the Class of 2014 could outshine them all.
"There is a lot of elite talent in 2014," said Shea Dixon, recruiting analyst for 24/7 Sports. "It could be the best class ever."
The Class of 2013 was above average by Louisiana's lofty standards, but the 2014 recruiting haul is expected to produce a bumper crop.
Fourteen Louisiana prospects are ranked on 24/7 Sports' Top 247 for 2014, ESPN's Watch List, Rivals' Watch List or some combination of all three.
At the top is St. Augustine running back Leonard Fournette (6-foot-1, 232 pounds), who's ranked as the nation's No. 1 running back and No. 2 overall prospect by 24/7 Sports and one of just nine five-star recruits on Rivals' 2014 Watch List.
Fournette is the player LSU coach Les Miles spoke of without naming Wednesday during his National Signing Day news conference when he talked about the need to sign a great running back.
"I'm thinking of him right now," said Miles, who is prohibited by NCAA rules from discussing potential recruits.
Fournette will be someone virtually every college football coach will be thinking of over the next year. Virtually every college football fan who follows recruiting, too.
"Everywhere I go, people see me and say, 'Hey, what school are you going to?' or 'Man, commit to LSU or commit to Alabama or commit to Notre Dame,' " Fournette said Wednesday. "It's every day, all day. It doesn't bother me at all. I just tell them, 'I don't know yet' and I thank them for being interested."
Fournette is considered an early lean to LSU, but heavy hitters like Alabama, Florida and Florida State are in the mix.
Louisiana's bounty for 2014 doesn't stop at Fournette's door. There's West Monroe's Cameron Robinson (6-6, 325), considered the nation's No. 1 offensive tackle prospect and No. 6 prospect overall per 24/7 Sports.
Not far down the road in Monroe is Neville's Laurence Jones (6-2, 208), rated by 24/7 Sports as the No. 4 safety prospect for 2014 and No. 12 nationally.
Back in New Orleans, Karr defensive end Gerald Willis (6-3, 260) watched firsthand the recruiting overkill his brother, Dutchtown's Landon Collins, got when he was Louisiana's top prospect in 2012.
Willis is considering joining his brother at Alabama, though he is also considered a lean to LSU. Florida, Texas A&M, and Southern Cal are also in his mix. Willis is No. 71 on The 24/7 Sports Top 247.
Teammate Speedy Noil (5-10, 169) is another highly coveted prospect, ranking No. 55 on the 24/7 Sports Top 247. LSU, Alabama, Florida, Texas A&M and Miami are among his top choices. Former Karr teammates Standish Dobard and Noel Ellis signed with Miami and A&M last week.
"Take it step by step and don't rush anything," Willis said Wednesday. "Colleges, you have to treat them all the same. You can't pick one above the other, because they all offer you the same thing. You have to look at what you want to be in life and maintain that at the college you??re at."
LSU has two in-state commitments for 2014, both of whom are on the early watch lists: Brother Martin offensive guard Williams Clapp (6-4, 270) and Westlake tight end Jacory Washington (6-5, 211).
Clapp, the son of former LSU football player Tommy Clapp, is No. 186 on the 24/7 Sports Top 247 and is on the ESPN and Rivals watch lists. Washington is on the ESPN and Rivals lists as well.
LSU also has commitments from two more watch-list recruits from out of state: Devin Voorhies (6-1, 185), an athlete from Woodville (Miss.) Wilkinson County and cornerback Chris Hardeman (5-9, 180) from Houston Alief Taylor.
Voorhies is considered the top prospect in Mississippi by 24/7 Sports, which rates him No. 52 nationally.
While the Class of 2014 is already causing recruiting followers to count the days until Feb. 5, the start of the 2014 signing period, Mike Scarborough, publisher of Rivals' LSU site TigerBait.com, urges caution — if that's possible.
"Look at (2014 and) it seems to be in that same line with 2001 and 2011," he said. "We'll see in 2018 or so how they're actually compared."
The Advocate's Ted Lewis and Gary Estwick contributed to this report.

Bridges seem to play an important role in the New Zealand marathon scene, what with the 5 Bridges Marathon in Petone and the Wanganui 3 Bridges Marathon.
And it could be said that there is even a marathon in New Zealand that spans the full history of the 42.195 km marathon. Indeed, was it not here at the Ascot Park Hotel Southland Marathon that the now legendary distance was run for just the second time (in 1909, shortly after the distance started to become standard at the 1908 London Olympics)? Speaking of bridges, there are sure to be lots of river crossings, but not a lot of bridges at the spectacular Motatapu Icebreaker Off Road Marathon that takes participants along a historical Maori route that is only open to the public on race day.
It only makes sense that a country with such a coastline (in terms of sheer length, and, above all, beauty) would feature a few coastal runs, and would you be surprised to learn that the one run along 90 Mile Beach is considered one of New Zealand's most challenging? That is, in any case, what organizers and participants have to say about the Marathon up in the Far north.
Another run – but one where you won't get sand in your shoes, is the Buller Gorge Marathon in Westport that lays claim to the title of "most scenic athletic event" in New Zealand!
New Zealand certainly has a wealth of scenic wilderness marathons, but of course it also features a few city marathons, as well:
The capital city, Wellington, hosts the Gazley Volkswagen Wellington Marathon.
The streets of Christchurch are the site of an annual marathon in June, which also bills itself as one of the world's fastest (and most scenic and supportive, as well) : the Marathon.
The country's largest city, Auckland, is the place to be in November when the Marathon rolls into town.
So depending where you're based, it may take you some time to get to New Zealand, but there are plenty of running opportunities that will make it well worth the trip!

How ants cover very long distances to search for food and then return to their nests infallibly has been a very important subject of research for scientists for many years. Direction finding, which is one of the most striking qualities of desert ants that dwell in the Sahara, has encouraged scientists to do more research on this, despite the fact that they are known to benefit from the Sun's direction.
It was previously known that Sahara ants, which look for food by zigzagging, follow the opposite direction to the zigzags after they reach their food and turn back to their nests, even though there are no markings or landmarks in deserts to use for finding directions, and that they use the Sun's direction in a surprising way.
However, specialists from the University of Ulm in Germany and the University of Zurich in Switzerland have broadened their research and made new research as to how ants find their ways in places with plant cover. As a result, it was discovered that these beings go back to their nests by counting their steps. This quality of these small creatures was of course formidable. The Sahara ants, which are also called catalglyphis fortis, also reached their nests by taking the exact number of steps on their way back.
The following experiment was conducted to reach this conclusion:
Scientists made Sahara ants walk from their nests to their food on a straight path. After the ants reached their food, meaning after they had memorized the distance between the nest and the food, they made additions to the half of the ants' legs using materials suitable to their physiologies and elongated their stepping distances. So they enlarged the ants' stride.
The legs of the other half of the ants were shortened with an operation, thus their steps were made smaller. The reason that their stepping distances were changed was to observe whether they measured the distances they had learned since the moment they left their nests using their steps or not.
Those ants with a longer leg length, meaning that they took bigger steps, went past their nests. Those with shorter leg lengths, meaning that they took shorter steps, stopped before they reached their nests. However, once the ants got used to their new leg lengths, they adjusted their steps, re-learned the nest-to-food distance, and went back and forth between their nests and food.
As a result of this experiment, the research team directed by Harald Wolf, Neurobiologist from the University of Ulm, concluded that ants counted their steps.
The ant is a living being, which does not have consciousness, intelligence, the ability to decide, nor can it make judgments or reason. There is no doubt that it is not possible that this living being goes out of its nest, goes to the food by counting its steps, and then turns back to its nest by counting its steps again. Sahara ants, just like every other being, act with the inspiration sent to them, and maintain their lives by means of the order and control of our Lord, since the first moment they were created.
There is no creature He does not hold by the forelock.... (Surah Hud, 56)

7 Little Ways To Show Your Mom Some Long-Distance Love
Mother's Day is this Sunday, which always brings up a good question: what's the best way to celebrate your mom and keep your relationship strong if you live hundreds (or thousands!) of miles away from her and can't just show up at her house with a bouquet of flowers? I polled the rest of The Frisky staff for tips on showing your mom some long distance love, on Mother's Day or any other day for that matter, and here's what we came up with…
1. Start a mother-daughter book club. Pick a book you both have been dying to read and a realistic amount of time to finish it. Then carve out an hour or two to call each other, sip white wine, and discuss the key plot points–of your cousin's latest drama, of course, and maybe the book too, if you have enough time.
2. Call her to vent. Yes, you're an adult, and yes, you can probably get by without venting to your mom about your problems (OK, maybe you can't, and that's fine too), but we have it on good authority that many moms would actually prefer it if their daughters kept them more involved in their daily lives, even the crappy parts. Have a frustrating meeting at work? Missed the bus again? Give your mom a call and tell her all about it.
3. Send her flowers. And not just for Mother's Day. There's really nothing like a random bouquet to make someone's day.
4. Text her (often). Take pictures or videos on your phone of things she might like (flowers, public art, etc.) and send them to her saying they reminded you of her. It's a small, sweet gesture that really means a lot. If your mom doesn't know how to text, give her a lesson next time you visit–and insist she give it a try.
5. Set up a video chat. Another tip that requires technology, I know, but if you can get your mom on board the Skype train, schedule some video chats. It makes a huge difference to see someone's face while you talk to them, and it will give your mom the opportunity to nag you to clean up the pile of laundry that she can see in the corner of your webcam.
6. Invite her to visit. Make your mom feel welcome to visit if she'd like (even if you would secretly rather she didn't take you up on the offer).
7. Make her a photo book. She already stalks you on Facebook. Feed her insatiable hunger for photos by using a service like Shutterfly or Snapfish to compile a gorgeous book of pictures of the two of you she'll enjoy for years to come. Get one for yourself while you're at it, and flip through it whenever you're missing your mama.
Do you guys have any other tips for celebrating/pampering/loving your mom from afar? Please share them in the comments!

Hello again,
I remember some people told me not to eat watermelon when I was pregnant. They told me it was bad but didn't actually explain why. Would you know why? Is there any scientific explanation behind this?
Thanks much.
Hello again,
I remember some people told me not to eat watermelon when I was pregnant. They told me it was bad but didn't actually explain why. Would you know why? Is there any scientific explanation behind this?
Thanks much.
Hi Ruthd,
Watermelon is safe to eat in pregnancy and it actually has some excellent health benefits: see this article on eating watermelons in pregnancy.
The only time I can think of that they wouldn't be safe to eat is if it had been washed in unclean water.
Best wishes,
Any food that I should avoid? I heard soft drinks and chocolates are also not good since they will make the fetus fat?
Hi Ruth,
There are certain foods you should avoid in pregnancy because of the risk of getting listeria: this article explains in detail about Safe Eating and Drinking in Pregnancy.
It's good to keep fizzy drinks and chocolate to a minimum - but this is because it is best to eat a healthy, balanced diet in pregnancy.
Best wishes,
Sodas/soft drinks should be kept to an absolute minimum or avoided altogether not only when you're pregnant but when you're not. They contain high levels of phosphates and phosphates leach calcium from your body.
When you're pregnant and the baby is developing bone, it will take calcium from you. In fact, if you don't have high enough reserves of calcium, the baby will usually develop just fine, but you'll find that your teeth suffer (more dental cavities, losing teeth) because this is one of the first places that show mineral deficiencies.
Of course the sugar in the soft drinks will make you more prone to getting sick and not eating enough healthy foods (it gives you a false sense of being full, when your body actually needs nutrients from other food).
As for watermelon... as Laura-Jane mentioned, it's a wonderful food, high in water and cleansing properties. Really good for the kidneys, bladder, heart, stomach, colon, liver and more! But especially wonderful for the kidneys.
Watermelon is often used as a kidney cleanse, and some people do a 3 day kidney cleanse by just eating watermelon for 3 days during the summer. However, this could pose a problem for the pregnant woman, and I wouldn't recommend any cleanse during pregnancy unless a doctor oversees it.
The reason for this is because anytime we do a cleanse, we dump toxins into our blood stream, and baby will be exposed to these higher levels of toxins for a short time, until they are moved out of the body. We don't want baby to be exposed to higher levels of toxins during development. You even have to be careful with cleansing while breastfeeding because the toxins will enter the milk that baby drinks. But you can do a slow, gentle cleanse while breastfeeding.
So this is what I'd say about watermelon during pregnancy. If your body craves it, eat it because there are wonderful, beneficial properties in watermelon that can help keep your body healthy. Eat it when you want it, but don't eat it if your body isn't calling for it. Listen to your body. It will tell you what it needs.
Please post back with any questions.
Warm Regards,

Smith warms to CBA deal
Published: February 6 2013 - 3:00AM
AFTER sending shudders through the NRL, Test captain Cameron Smith on Tuesday shied away from his claim players would ''knock back'' the latest collective bargaining agreement on offer.
In a backflip that may rival anything on offer in Saturday night's All Stars clash in Brisbane, Smith did his best to ease concerns over the 2013 season proper beginning without a salary cap after receiving an update on talks from Rugby League Players' Association chief executive David Garnsey.
Melbourne's skipper raised eyebrows when he said on Tuesday on the radio that the CBA tabled by the ARL Commission ''is going to get knocked back''.
By the time he arrived for the official All Stars team photo at Suncorp Stadium, Smith had another stunning admission - he was ''out of the loop''.
''I had an extended break compared to other players in the competition. I was out of the loop there for a while but we have moved on in our negotiations,'' he said. ''I obviously spoke on radio this morning about that. Since then I have had a chat with David Garnsey and he has given me an update and we are a lot closer to agreeing than I believed.
''My comments were based on discussions we had just before the break.''
Smith was quick to dismiss talk of the NRL season start being in jeopardy due to the drawn out salary cap talks.
The ARLC has offered to lift the NRL salary cap to $5.8 million this season, gradually raising it to $7 million by 2017 and increasing the marquee player allowance from $300,000 to $550,000.
''I am confident we can get something done and we can kick off the year,'' Smith said.

Hahn picks up first road loss as Padres fall to Twins
Rookie's solid outing marred by Minnesota's three-run homer in sixth
MINNEAPOLIS -- Jesse Hahn fooled Kennys Vargas with a curveball in the first inning, so the Padres starter tried his luck again in the sixth.
"If I see someone can't hit it, then yeah, why not?" Hahn said.
But Hahn left the pitch high, and Vargas didn't miss his opportunity. Playing in his fourth Major League game, the 24-year-old Twins rookie lined his first career home run to the right field seats for a 3-1 Minnesota victory at Target Field on Tuesday night.
"I think it was the right pitch in that situation," Hahn said. "I just don't think it was executed. It was up in the zone."
The errant curve was Hahn's only big mistake of the night. It was also his first surrendered home run in 55 innings, a streak that was good for second best in the Majors. Hahn lost for the first time in five road starts.
Before that pitch, he had been protecting the Padres' 1-0 lead with a two-hit shutout.
"This is a game he'll remember," manager Bud Black said. "That one pitch really came back to haunt him."
San Diego jumped out to a one-run lead in the fifth, when Yonder Alonso smashed a Phil Hughes pitch into the second right-field deck. The hit -- which traveled 418 feet -- was the only time that the Padres were able to come through against Hughes, who tallied nine strikeouts with help from a nasty cut fastball.
"I felt pretty good," Hughes said. "I was able to locate my pitches, probably the best I have in quite a while. That always helps. I thought my stuff was pretty good outside of the one pitch where the ball came over the plate. For the most part, I was able to put the ball where I wanted to."
The lead could've been bigger if not for a great defensive play by Twins catcher Kurt Suzuki in the second inning.
Yasmani Grandal managed a two-out single, and then tried to come all the way home on an Alonso double that sailed over Oswaldo Arcia's head. But the relay throw was quick, and second baseman Brian Dozier snapped a throw to Suzuki, who was standing roughly eight feet in front of home plate.
"He was out in front of home plate," Grandal said. "So I thought maybe the throw might've been off line."
But Suzuki snagged the throw, dove back toward the plate and tagged Grandal for the third out.
"He definitely made a great play," Grandal said. "I was out. He tagged me. There's not really much you can say about it."
While the offense -- 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position -- couldn't capitalize on 12 total hits, the team leaned on Hahn for most of the game.
"It was a good outing overall," he said. "As a team, we played a great game. There was great defense behind me. I think if I would've executed that pitch that inning, it'd be a different ballgame."
Black said that Hahn didn't have his best stuff from the get-go, but was also very positive about the young pitcher's performance.
"He's done great work for a rookie pitcher that, coming into Spring Training, wasn't as high on the radar as other players," Black said. "So it's a tribute to Jesse that he's broken through when given the opportunity, grabbed it by the neck and has run with it. It's great to see."
Minnesota's All-Star closer Glen Perkins gave up two singles in the ninth to bring the winning run to the plate, but Yangervis Solarte and Tommy Medica popped out to end the game.
"We got double-digit hits," Black said. "We just couldn't punch them together and get a big one at the end or when we had a couple opportunities. They had one big swing, and that was the difference in the game. And that happens. A lot of times solo home runs don't beat you. It didn't tonight for Hughes. He made some pitches, we just couldn't put hits together to get more runs."
Hahn will just have to live with that sixth-inning curveball.
"That was just a bad pitch," he said. "I wish I had it back."

The final loop was steep, my Garmin showed 12-14% at places and at >2700m altitude it was hard, glad for a compact with 29T cog. Lots of other cyclists too, some spinning their way up on MTB gearing others rather struggling.
And then a fantastic descent down through the old miltary town / fortifications and onto the much photographed series of hairpins.

• donnybrook •
Pronunciation: dah-ni-bruk • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Noun
Meaning: A huge brawl, a riot, an uproar.
Notes: Donnybrook is a sterling example of a lexical orphan, a word with no derivational relatives. Since it is a compound made up of easily recognizable components, we are left with little to say about it.
In Play: We generally associate donnybrooks with sporting events: "A donnybrook broke out among the fans at the football game when the visiting team pulled out a victory in the final seconds." However, this word is not immune to metaphor: "This last presidential campaign proved to be an advertising donnybrook in the swing states."
Word History: This word has an eponym in the Donnybrook Fair once held outside Dublin annually, known for its drunken brawls. The fair was banned in 1855. The word originated in an Irish Gaelic phrase, Domhnach Broc, meaning "Church of (Saint) Broc". Broc was one of seven daughters of Dallbronach of Deece, County Meath, mentioned in two manuscripts of the day. She was supposedly beatified for building a monastery near the Donnybrook fairground, a monastery long since replaced by a graveyard. Domhnach comes from Latin (Dies) Dominica "(day) of the Lord", an adjective derived from dominus "lord, head of the household". This word comes from domus "house". An interesting journey, all said and done, for today's Good Word. (Let's tip our hats in thanks to Albert Skiles for suggesting today's Good Word, lest an e-donnybrook break out.)

Now that the election is over and the campaign ads from the current governor talking about the solid state of the Texas economy are a distant memory, the Legislature is having to deal with reality — huge deficits.
Former Dallas Independent School District superintendent Linus Wright, who helped destroy DISD in the 1980s, made a budget-cutting proposal — eliminate 12th grade.
Makes sense. Has lots of upside.
If most dropouts occur in the 12th grade, eliminate 12th grade. With the stroke of a pen, save millions of dollars and cut the Texas dropout rate in half.
Never mind that colleges don't accept students who've only graduated from 11th grade. But maybe college is a waste of time to Wright and his ilk as well.

The iPhone History: A Report
One of the tropes in the car business is things run in cycles: If you're on the top today, you'll eventually be on the bottom. Consider, then, America's largest carmaker: General Motors. GM began life in 1908 as a small Michigan holding company; it's now the world's second-largest car manufacturer. Over the years, it's put out genuinely amazing machinery, utter garbage, and everything in between.
This is relevant, because Esquire's Car of the Year isn't selected in a bubble. Like a lot of people, we look at the numbers — acceleration times, fuel mileage, sales potential — because those things matter. But above all, we focus on how a car makes us feel. The Esquire Car of the Year should be practical, but not at the expense of emotion. It should be sedate enough to ferry the boss to a meeting, yet soulful enough to get the juices pumping just sitting in the driveway. It's a gorgeous car you can buy for your commute, a back-road terror when it needs to be, a comfortable, spacious way to take the kids to swim practice. And because we live in America, there's also hometown pride. It doesn't dominate the proceedings, but we'd be lying if we didn't admit to feeling good when the winner comes from the same place we do.
Meet the newest Esquire Car of the Year: the 2013 Cadillac ATS. It is perhaps the single most important thing Detroit has built in years, and it is one hell of a car to boot. We're more than a little proud.
Consider Cadillac: GM's top-shelf brand, long struggling, once a genuine world leader. It's the carmaker that gave us the first electric starter, one of the first to offer workable electric lights, and the only American brand walking to have ever offered a standard V-16 — 16 whopping cylinders — all before World War II. Its slogan was once "the Standard of the World," and it wasn't just hype. But Cadillac wandered. The brand slowly morphed into just another badge in GM's portfolio; everything between the Carter administration and the first CTS sedan (2003) was either forgettable or aimed at comatose retirees. The GM bankruptcy, well, that needs no introduction. This from the only luxury-car brand America has left.
The turnaround began with the CTS. It was the first step, a well-crafted four-door that drove nicely and wanted for little. It evolved into the current CTS (an ass-kicker and leather-lined bargain) and 556-hp CTS-V (a thundering ass-kicker, with an engine stout enough to jump-start the sun). Suddenly Cadillac mattered again.
The rear-wheel-drive ATS, new this year, is the next step. The ads paint it as a sport sedan similar to the BMW 328i, a predictable move. The BMW is the industry benchmark, its iPhone, a product so pitch-perfect in ability that everyone uses it as a standard. The ATS's engineers have admitted that in the beginning they cribbed the BMW's measurements. (The two cars' wheelbases and lengths are all within 1.3 inches of each other.) But the BMW occasionally feels a little cold. It's German, after all.
Can the ATS hang with a 3 Series on winding pavement? Of course. Big deal. Those are numbers, and numbers are easy. Same for the optional 272-hp, 32-mpg, 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder — it's a smart, razor-sharp engine that would've seemed impossible a decade ago — or the available 321-hp, 28-mpg V-6, a smooth piece that rips into the asphalt the moment you toe the throttle. Technical excellence is pretty common these days, and if you run a car company and hire the right engineers, you have to be trying hard to miss it.
Humanity is the last true automotive bellwether, and how the Cadillac trounced this year's other debuts. The base ATS is $33,990, but from the right angle, the body creases and brightwork touches make it seem worth ten grand more. The shape is sharp and clean and soft all at once, like a lab experiment built from stem cells and diamonds. It feels American, in the same way that the Willis (née Sears) Tower looks American — taut and clean but oddly human. Like our three previous Esquire Cars of the Year — the Audi A7, the Audi S4, and the Ford Taurus SHO — its appeal is visceral.
For a long time, there was this notion that American cars should be like cars from Europe, Japan, or anywhere with a history of reliability and decent engineering. This is bunk, and you don't realize it until you see the nationalism thing done right. You sit in the cockpit of the ATS and think, Well, yeah. It's the hint of big-industry swagger in the capacitive-touch center console (piano black, with a motorized oddment drawer), a futuristic, glossy thing that you find yourself endlessly skittering your fingers across. It's the touch-screen navigation and cockpit control system that works like a smartphone, pinching to zoom and redrawing without a glitch. (As Steve Jobs taught us, tech should just work.) It's the blisteringly cool chassis — you put the car on a lift, walk underneath it, and everything is weight-drilled this, welded-aluminum aerospace-science-fiction that. This is the kind of stuff you see in supercars, not midlevel sedans. Every inch of this thing, you get the feeling that the people who designed it gave a damn about Detroit and machines and America — the old America, the one that built things and conquered divides. You see the ATS in your driveway and you think about that, but mostly you just want to get on the road. There is no better compliment.
Fathers everywhere go hoarse repeating the maxim "It isn't the fall that matters, but what happens when you stand back up." With the ATS, Cadillac is moving again, no longer unsure of itself, a brand to be proud of. The country has an attainable luxury car again. And Esquire has its Car of the Year.

Think back to high school: Music needed to be louder, food needed more fat in it, and cars were interesting only if they were orange or yellow or polka-dot obnoxious. Most people grow saner as they get older (exception: fat tastes good forever), but everyone needs to go high-school-grade batshit occasionally. Ford's Focus ST is that batshit. The ST is an ordinary hatchback with a turbocharger, a stiffer suspension, and a silly amount of power. But it also has a front end that's like a bloated catfish. It comes in a color called Tangerine Scream, and the interior is an ADD explosion of glossy paint and alien shapes. The bratty sport seats have ST stitched on them in big red letters, just in case you forget. The exhaust is a thunderous din, a peace-disturbing boom-thump that trips car alarms in parking garages. A six-speed manual is the only transmission. The ride is jarring but somehow not annoying; the car gobbles up corners giddily, like a dog straining a leash. There is nothing subtle here, and it bends you toward obnoxious acts. Most carmakers don't have the balls to build a car this ridiculous, and the ones that do rarely sell them in America. It's a reminder that cars are gutsy, juvenile things at heart; deep down, the good ones speak to the sixteen-year-old you. You don't drive something like this by accident, but then that's kind of the point.

Event Details
The Superbowl of Winemaker Wednesdays at 1313 Main, "WMW -TwentyFour Wines" is going to be a combination of winemaker interaction with Gustavo Gonzalez, and a meet and greet with future hall-of-famer Charles Woodson!
"TwentyFour is an endeavor that, like its proprietor, came from humble beginnings and evolved into so much more. Blended from grapes that were cultivated in one of the most exclusive vineyards in the Napa Valley, TwentyFour embodies the abundant blessings that surround us. This is a wine of pure enjoyment, gratitude, giving back and paying forward. From our cellar to yours, we hope you enjoy."
-Charles Woodson
Charles' affinity for wine was piqued in the summer of 1998 when he arrived in Napa Valley for training camp while playing for the Oakland Raiders. Interested in learning more about the art of making fine wine, he partnered with one of the industry's preeminent winemakers, Gustavo A. Gonzalez. Gustavo's expertise was first applied to making a single barrel of Merlot, the varietal that first caught Woodson's eye and later led him to Cabernet Sauvignon.
This Winemaker Wednesday at 1313 Main will be a new take on a now established tradition in downtown Napa. The event will feature the 2011 Sauvignon Blanc ($20), the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon ($150), and the debut release of the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon ($150).
The ticketed price will be $35 to attend the event, which can also be charged at the door to 1313 Main (limited availability). The ticket includes the flight of TwentyFour wines, a professional photograph with Charles Woodson, and entry into a raffle with prizes ranging from $200 to $600. To obtain an autograph from Charles, there is a minimum purchase of $150 required. No exceptions.
A second VIP ticket, will also be available for purchase at $180. This ticket includes the flight of TwentyFour wines, an autographed bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, a professional photograph with Charles Woodson, entry into the raffle, and one autograph on any item of the guests choosing.
Additional raffles tickets may be obtained with every additional purchase of $24.

Incorporating the latest trading and investment technologies, the SELL ensures that faculty members have the best available tools for developing students' practical knowledge and awareness of financial markets. Access to real-time data from diverse markets adds a real-world dimension and immediacy to concepts delivered in the classroom, reinforcing student learning and understanding. With faculty guidance and input from an advisory board of finance industry executives, select students will also use the SELL's resources to manage a real portion of the University's endowment portfolio, reporting their results each semester to the Finance Committee of the University's Board of Trustees. Students will also have an opportunity to gain certification in platforms used by the majority of finance firms, including Bloomberg, Morningstar, and Capital IQ.
Through the tools available in the SELL, Loyola faculty and students can use research methodologies including interactive surveys for marketing data and virtual environments for product simulation. These tools will augment the depth and breadth of ongoing faculty research, allow faculty to apply emerging information to current classes, and enhance courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
The SELL provides an extraordinary opportunity to partner education with service. Loyola's strategic plan includes a commitment to working with residents, business owners, and community leaders to strengthen the York Road corridor adjacent to the University's Evergreen campus. Extensive research conducted by the University revealed that strengthening the commercial strip was high among the community's priorities, and that many residents would welcome the provision of business development resources and financial literacy programs. In addition to empowering Loyola students to access the resources they need to advance these endeavors, members of the York Road community, local high school students, and others will be able to visit the SELL, explore its resources, and experience Loyola's university environment. Many of the courses conducted in the SELL include service-learning components. SELL tools will be used to develop and deliver financial literacy educational materials to members of the Baltimore community, particularly along the York Road corridor. In addition, Baltimore City high school students will have opportunities to visit the SELL, explore its resources, and participate in financial literacy education on site. While these opportunities offer an experience tailored to the world of business and finance, they also give high school students from Baltimore, many of whom are lower-income and/or first-generation college prospects, exposure to university life and the possibilities created through college education. The University is also exploring the possibility of developing a summer financial literacy workshop for high school students that would be held in the SELL.

Uslu Airlines "One" Nail Polish
Nail Polish the color of a dollar bill. Who would have thought of it? Well, Feride Uslu from the Berlin-based company of Uslu Airlines thought up this polish when thinking of the universal currency - which is what the US dollar bill represents to her. The polish is named "One" to connect the three ideas of World, Love, and Money that come printed on a one dollar bill that each bottle of polish comes with. Interesting idea. And another polish to follow the mint green-tinged polish trend...but with a twist.

The Heidi Chronicles
This Pulitzer Prize and Tony award-winning play is the tale of a baby-boomer's long hard road from 1960s confusion to 1990s self-made woman...or so she hopes.
The Young Man From Atlanta
In 1950s Houston, an affluent couple is transformed by tragedy when their son dies under mysterious circumstances and the husband loses his job of 40 years. Shirley Knight recreates her Tony-nominated performance in this 1995 Pulitzer Prize-winning drama.
Anna Christie
The passion of a coal barge captain's daughter and a handsome sailor takes a tumultuous turn when secrets from her past are revealed. Nobel Laureate Eugene O'Neill won the second of his four Pulitzer Prizes for this heroic classic.
(P) L.A. Theatre Works. All Rights Reserved.
"Absolutely Extraordinary"
This collection and its sequel are absolutely two of my favorite audible purchases of all time. I bought it for the Eugene O'Neill play, which I would now say is the weakest of the six, but still good. I can't recommend this collection highly enough. The other LA Theatreworks productions are good too, but the Pullitzer collections are as good as it gets.
"The Heidi Chronicles Shines, Nothing Disappoints"
The quality of the works.

The Heidi Chronicles was simply sensational: funny, pointed, insightful, perfectly cast and refreshingly balanced.

The Young Man From Atlanta perhaps lacks suspense, but makes up for it in brilliantly fashion, subtly discussing social and sexual attitudes by not actually having them discussed (it makes sense when you hear the play trust me).

Anna Christie was an enjoyable romp, not a life changer, but a great way to spend and hour.
For The Heidi Chronicles it was the sheer believability. The characters have their extremes and the troupes of each era/character type are explored, but in an intelligent and ultimately moving fashion. You'll feel like you've have known the characters for 20 years by the play's conclusion, and you'll be saddened to leave their company. Incisive but affectionate, a study of women in the Baby Boomer generation that's flexible mixing feminism, comedy and realism, without having any one element undermine the others. Strangely heart breaking, and utterly brilliant.

The Young Man From Atlanta is all about what goes unsaid. You get to fill the judgemental emotional void, and drawing your own conclusions is essential to this play's success.

Anna Christie a breeze.

Great value for money.
I focus on fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, science, history, politics and read a lot. I try to review everything I read.
"Great Plays, enjoyable listen"
I really liked this collection. I did not expect to like the Heidi Chronicles but I loved it. The performances were great. The Young Man From Atlanta was also very good, but had a few lackluster performances. Anna Christie was excellently performed and was quite enjoyable. These were three plays which were new to me and really worth the listen. I really like listening to these LA Theatre Works selections and have more in my queue and plan on getting more. I had feared listening to stage theater on audible would be dry or boring, but these plays were totally engaging.

Major Brown led a largely solitary life, his family said.
The 29-year-old, who suffered from schizophrenia, mostly sat by himself each day outside the family's Cate Avenue home.
So his death by gunfire Wednesday night remains a mystery.
The incident started with a loud, insistent knocking on the front door at 9 p.m. Someone was asking Brown for a light while his family was upstairs preparing for bed.
He ran upstairs to his sister's room for a lighter, ran back down and outside the house. And then about five shots rang out.
Family members found him seconds later, shot multiple times and sprawled on the grass outside. Authorities pronounced Brown dead at the scene, said Cpl. Don Coppola, a police spokesman.
"It just feels like a dream, and I haven't woke up yet," said Alma Brown, 48, his mother. "I'm used to him coming into my room checking on me. He always checked on the house at night, but all that's over with."
Her son spent most days at their 12345 Cate Ave. home, sitting on a plastic crate near the front door, she said.
He stayed at home partly because his illness affected his job prospects. He once was a janitor at a local elementary school, but the school dismissed him in 2012 out of concerns he was too mentally ill to work, Alma Brown said. He heard or saw things and took medication.
His sister, Barbara Brown, 26, said he'd often spend long stretches sitting in the bathtub in the dark.
On Wednesday night, Alma Brown listened from upstairs while her son answered the door. She could hear him say, "I don't have a light, I don't smoke."
He ran upstairs and grabbed a lighter from his sister before racing back down.
Then the gunfire erupted. At least one bullet struck something metallic. The shots were so loud that Alma Brown said her ears were ringing.
As they ran downstairs, they saw the front door was wide open. Alma Brown found her son just around the home's side near a cluster of plastic bicycles for toddlers, just past their waist-high metal gate, flat on his back with his arms out past his head.
A green plastic cup he was carrying when he answered the door had rolled out of his grip and come to rest beyond his hands.
"I started screaming, 'Oh Lord, they killed my baby,' " Alma Brown said.
Police on Thursday had no other details on their investigation, other than urging anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at (225) 389-3845 or (225) 389-STOP.
"I'm just scared, 'cause I don't know who did it," Barbara Brown said.
She could think of no one who would want to harm her brother.
Each morning, he would go outside to sit on the plastic milk crates, talking to a friend or two on a cellphone, Barbara Brown said.
More recently he would sit atop the Ford Cutlass he bought with savings in September, even though the car had a tarp over it, and look out at passing traffic, she said.
He needed money for a driver's license, and told his sister he planned to apply for one on Thursday.
He never got to drive the car.

Thread: Ensemble Backlog: Gemini Rue
I started Gemini Rue, hoping to finish this month. I also added Sleep is Death to the games list for next month. Been meaning to play that but so far haven't been able to get anyone to play with.
I finished this last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Which is high praise as I really don't get on with point-and-clickers generally, I've never got more than half an hour into others before the frustrations of the format drove me away. It was very much the atmosphere and mood that kept me playing it. Yes all of its tropes, including some of the music, are ripped straight from Blade Runner but it's very well done and it's an affectionate and knowing tribute. And I love Blade Runner so much that if the same mood is well executed then it can't fail to push my buttons. So much so that I had dreams about the game afterwards. And I loved the retro graphics style which made the mood more immersive and effective the further I got into it.
Some things to know if you haven't played it yet:
- As recommended in the OP, turn Combat to 'Easy'. The shooty bits are rubbish - a ball-aching bore and best gotten over with quickly. Thankfully they are few.
- I only found out halfway through that there's a launcher in the game folder where you can change graphics settings. This lets you increase the resolution a bit and also play it windowed. Also solves a common problem with half the screen failing to redraw in some locations, I had to switch from Direct3D to DirectDraw in the options to fix this.
- I had to disable Steam Cloud as it twice failed to restore my saved games after restarting. May not be game specific but I've not had that problem with Steam Cloud until now.
- I couldn't use the Steam Overlay or Alt-Tab out without getting a problem with runaway mouse click speed that made the game unplayable. Solved by running it windowed.
Finally on the plot and game ending, I was surprised and a bit disappointed that the game POSSIBLE SPOILER didn't have any multiple endings or even any plot branches to speak of. Which felt like let down and a big missed opportunity given the memory wipe and multiple identities theme. (end)

MARK Cooper is keeping his points target for the remaining 13 games of his side's season private, with the Swindon Town manager more interested in seeing the Robins finish 2013/14 with a flourish.
Town currently lie eighth in the League One table with 46 points, six points behind Peterborough United in the final play-off position with just over quarter of the season remaining, and Cooper has a figure in his head of the points haul he believes would propel Swindon into the top six.
However, the 45-year-old isn't about to divulge that information. Instead, he'd rather see his players up their performance levels.
Even when the Advertiser suggested another eight victories might be enough to secure Town sixth spot, Cooper stayed coy.
He said: "I think it possibly could get you the last place. Of course we'd love to get there but all we're trying to do is finish the season as strongly as we can and see where it takes us.
"We don't really talk about (the play-offs), we just talk about the next game. If you start looking too far ahead then you get lost and you can't see the wood for the trees so we're just concentrating on the next game."
Given that the average points total to sneak into sixth place since 2002 is 75 points, even eight victories is unlikely to be enough to lift Swindon into the play-off places.
Presuming they lost the other five games of their run-in, Town would finish the campaign with 70 points - fewer than any of the past 11 sixth-placed sides and they would be 12 points worse off than the 2009/10 sixth-placers Huddersfield.
It remains a long shot and one key element of a successful last two months of the term will be players' fitness.
"The sports science becomes important - deciding which players are most at risk of long-term injuries, which need a rest, training and things like that," said Cooper.
"You just try to manage it and try to make sure you don't do too much training. You make sure you do enough.
"You think with the number of players we've got out we don't want more, so we're always erring on the side of caution."

Dear Site point Friends,
I want do Develop a site Which includes Ecommerce ,job posting and Classified Ads(Free and Premium).Currently only manual payments are Required in the Future i want Credit card and pay pal integration too. I'm thinking of Using Wordpress With plugins for Each.
Can You please Give suggestions on my thought and also please Suggest some free Templates for above mentioned requirements.I'm fairly new to wordpress Website Development but comfortable with blogging in wordpress.Also Suggest How much can i Bill for this.
Well you are trying too much with wordpress. No doubt wordpress is a good platform but I am really not sure how it would perform given the multiple items that you plan to run on wordpress.ecommerce / job / classifieds ad. I think you need to ask someone who has done such a large scale integration of multiple things on wordpress. Basically here is how wordpress word work and how you could set it up if you really wish to set it up.
I think you should also evaluate Joomla as an option like for joomla you have virtuemart for ecommerce and many extensions for jobs and classifieds so you can check the joomla extension directory.
I am no authority on such integrations and the above are simply my personal views and I might be 100% wrong in my views so its best you wait for other responses and you yourself take another view and then we can finally decide which is best in the above scenario once you have more views from others
Thanks a lot friend I'm quite comfortable with coding but didnt Designed a wp Template of my own .Can i use same template for all the installations ?.and can i install multiple wordpresses for each Sub Domain?
Yes you can install multiple wordpress installs one for each sub domain.
The same template can be used to some extent but for each you will need to modify it a bit to accommodate for custom fields and taxonomies for each section.
i'M WAITING FOR SUGGESTIONS PLS
What kind of suggestions are you looking for? Kindly use small case while typing. Please state clearly what kind of suggestions / help you need.
I need Your suggestions on using wp for above tasks
