The Pistons failed to execute down the stretch last night and Portland pulled out a 105-to-100 win over Detroit at the Palace. The close game found the Pistons ahead 95-to-93 with 1:48 left in the fourth quarter. But that was their last lead and the Blazers nailed down their fourth straight victory.
Ben Gordon came off the bench to pace the Pistons with 18 points. The defeat drops Detroit 5-and-a-half games behind the Indiana Pacers in the race for the eighth and final Eastern Conference playoff berth. The Pistons host Atlanta tonight and then play the Pacers at the Palace Wednesday for their last game before the All Star break.

An attempt to thaw pipes on Thursday morning sparked a fire in Smithfield.
About 10:46 a.m., firefighters from Smithfield, North Logan, Logan and Cache County responded to a fire at a trailer home at 610 W. 100 North. The first ones on scene reported smoke and flames coming from the mobile home, according to a news release.
The fire started in a small utility closet that housed the water heater and furnace, Smithfield Fire Chief Jay Downs said in a statement. The fire spread into the adjacent bedroom and bathroom before firefighters had it under control.
Investigators found that a heat gun — normally used to remove paint and decals — was instead being used to thaw pipes, sparking the fire.
The fire caused about $30,000 damage. No one was hurt.
Smithfield Fire Battalion Chief Mike Weibel added in a statement that people should remember not to leave portable heating devices unattended.

Darren Collison is not a better overall player than Isaiah Thomas. Lets get that right out there. But hes different, and the Kings needed different. And hes cheaper, and with a desire to maintain salary cap flexibility for a potential free-agent windfall in 2015, the Kings needed cheaper.
Mostly, though, the Kings needed a change, a new look, another approach. Eight losing seasons and back-to-back years of 28 wins tells a pretty ugly story. The chronic overdribbling, slow tempo, and lack of spacing and movement became a disease that spread with every bounce of the ball. It was as hard on the eyeballs as it was on the wooden floor.
Thomas was hardly the only culprit, but he was the primary ballhandler, the player relied upon to establish pace and facilitate an offense, while harassing opposing ballhandlers, and in that sense, he was simply miscast. He is and we have said this before a Vinnie Johnson or Jamal Crawford, a clever, at times explosive scorer. The cover page of his portfolio should read, Have Ball, Will Score.
Despite his size, the 5-foot-9 Thomas gets into the lane and creates a shot, scores off dribble drives and step-back jumpers, and eludes taller defenders with an expansive series of runners and floaters. His offense expanded in all three of his pro seasons, and on more than one occasion, he broke open the fourth quarter with a barrage of three-pointers.
In an ideal world, the former Washington Husky would be a Sixth Man of the Year candidate for the next decade, a coveted and dependable role player valued by every team in the league. But Thomas sees himself through another prism. He envisions himself as a lead guard deserving a starters salary, and ultimately, this is why the Kings and their most popular player will part ways.
The Kings were willing to offer $5 million to $6 million per year for four seasons with the idea of Thomas as a super sub. But they were unwilling to match the $8 million to $9 million he reportedly was seeking and confident he would attract, given the four-year, $32 million contract Avery Bradley agreed to with the Boston Celtics and the three-year, $19.5 million deal Jodie Meeks reached with the Detroit Pistons.
The Lakers, Pistons, Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat have expressed interest in Thomas, though to varying degrees, and with Lakers, Mavs and Heat officials awaiting word from top-tier free agents before delving more deeply into the market.
While the Kings can match any offer because Thomas is restricted, a sign-and-trade or outright release is the more probable outcome.
Were still having conversations with Isaiahs agent and will continue to do so, said Kings general manager Pete DAlessandro. Well see where those conversations take us. With us, were looking at the big picture. So were putting our plan together, assessing what the best chemistry is and working toward long-term sustainability. Its a puzzle. Every team is trying to put together the right pieces.
Collison, 26, is not a game changer, not an elite playmaker or defender in any sense. After a promising rookie season in New Orleans, he endured two disappointing years in Indiana and Dallas, respectively, before enjoying a resurgence last year as Chris Pauls backup with the Clippers.
His value to the Kings will be his ability to pressure opposing ballhandlers, push the pace and nudge his teammates toward a style and a system that capitalize on transition and early offense opportunities. He also excels in pick-and-rolls and is a decent, very willing passer. The ball doesnt stick in Collisons hands, a major plus given the ball-stopping tendencies of Rudy Gay and DeMarcus Cousins. It also should ease the adjustment of rookie Nik Stauskas, the Michigan shooting guard who was widely regarded as either the best or second-best (to Doug McDermott) shooter in the draft and erratic second-year guard Ben McLemore.
DAlessandro, who is intent on maintaining the salary cap until the contracts of Gay (whom he hopes to extend), Jason Terry, Travis Outlaw, Reggie Evans and Quincy Acy expire and create substantial space at the end of the season, anticipates additional moves.
Attention now turns to power forward and the amount of money tied up in Jason Thompson, Carl Landry, Reggie Evans and Derrick Williams. According to league sources, the Kings have been shopping several frontcourt players. In recent weeks, they have been linked to the Pistons Josh Smith (three years, $13 million) and declined interest in Milwaukees troubled, if talented Larry Sanders.
Other players thought to offer some intrigue include Charlotte Bobcats free agent Josh McRoberts, the Mavericks Brandan Wright (one year left at $5 million), and Nick Collison, the Oklahoma City veteran who has one year left at $2.2 million and might be available if the Thunder lands Pau Gasol.
We had 28 wins two years in a row, reiterated DAlessandro. Thats not acceptable to our fans, and its not acceptable to our owner. How do we get better? Our draft pick we are thrilled about. Shooting has been one of our weaknesses. People are calling me and telling me about Niks ability to handle the ball, pass the ball. So we look forward to seeing him in the summer league with Ray McCallum and Ben McLemore.
The GM is precluded from discussing Darren Collison until the free agent signs on Thursday. But the unspoken message has been delivered, loudly and clearly, and its not revolutionary. The plan is to change an unappealing system and style from within, and as often occurs, that starts at the point.

Kentucky saw something special in White County's Ashely Lowery even before he leaped over a defender in full stride this past Friday in Cleveland.
Lowery, a 6-foot-2, 195-pound senior running back and defensive back, committed to the Wildcats back on August 7. But few others knew much about him before the video of his amazing run went viral on YouTube this week.
"Great athlete. Good young man," White County coach Greg Seagraves said of his star attraction. "Tennessee looked at him closely. So did Georgia and Georgia Tech. They've all looked at him."
But other than Kentucky, only Illinois, Air Force, UAB, Eastern Kentucky and Western Caroina have offered.
"He's kind of a between guy," Seagraves explained. "They're not sure if he's a safety, wide receiver, running back or linebacker. Kentucky called them summer and said they wanted him no matter what. They don't know exactly what he's going to be. But they know he's an incredible athlete."
So does everybody else now.
During a 45-18 win over West Hall Friday, Lowery was lined up at running back in the backfield when a shotgun snap went over the head of the quarterback. Lowery scooped up the loose ball and went around right end on a play that was designed to go to the left.
There Lowery encountered the only thing between him and the goal line some 20 or so yards away — West Hall defensive back Jacob Scarborough. For reasons Lowery will explain, he simply hurdled the diminutive defensive back, who was just beginning to break down into a tackling position.
"I thought he was going to cut me because I had run him over earlier in the game," said Lowery, not surprisingly a high jumper and hurdler on the track team. "I didn't feel like getting my knees hurt, so I just jumped."
Lowery cleared Scarborough's head without so much as a graze and rambled the rest of the way to the end zone. It wasn't until well after the play that Lowery realized a flag had been thrown. Turns out it's illegal to hurdle a defender.
"The whole team surrounded me, so it wasn't until I got out of the end zone that I saw the flag," said Lowery, who rushed for 121 yards and three touchdowns on the night. "I wasn't sure what they called."
Said Seagraves: "It is the rule and the rule is for the safety of the kids. We may not think it's right. But the rule is the rule and we're going to abide by the rules. The rule is in place to protect the hurdler."
Nevertheless, the play produced some amazing footage, which had been viewed nearly 30,000 times by Wednesday morning.
Among those to see the video were Kentucky's coaches.
"I talked to them after practice Monday," Lowery said. "Somebody had sent them a link. They were excited and said they hoped I was going to bring that to Kentucky."
As for how the video ended up on the World Wide Web, that remains a bit of a mystery. But Seagraves has a theory.
"I didn't put it out there, but I have two sons on the team and I think they might have gotten hold of it and put it on YouTube," he said.
Meanwhile, the leap has brought Lowery some renewed recruiting interest.
"All of them are continuing to recruit me," he said of his many suitors. "But I think I'm going to stick with Kentucky."

He won't go to Athens. It's clear this guy likes his freedom, anybody that can fly like that does. Most that go to UGA have to do some jail time. I think that's part of the credits needed to graduate up there. Kentucky is a much better fit for a decent kid like this one.

Nice job by the linesman to call that with no hesitation. Not a play you see very often, I only saw it in one game in 33 years of high school officiating, three times in the same game by the same player. Too far downfield the first time for me to call but I flagged him the next two times and he gave it up.
Probably a lot of confusion and some copycatting from the videos of McAfee from Texas doing it many times in his highlight films a couple of years ago, it took me a while to figure out that he got away with it because it is legal in NCAA rules and Texas uses NCAA rules.
Probably a measure of how dangerous it is is that you never see it in college even though it is legal. If the defender had got a foot he would have probably corkscrewed headfirst into the ground from a pretty good height.
I sure hope Lowery honors his commitment, I think Joker will open up some eyes this year and especially next year. Quality staff with morals, unlike UT. Very disappointed in Dooley.

So, Kentucky recruited an RB named Ashley (from White County no less). So, are offers to Skip, Biff, Hubert and Sheldon forthcoming?
Just kidding. I will complain about the fact that this guy committed way back on August 7 and this is the first we've heard of him on this blog.
Looks like Kentucky got another quality athlete from a state that produces a lot of them. I bet Kentucky gets more production out of their 3 star RBs than UGA does out of their 5 stars. UGA … where top rated RBs go on to rush for 700 yards per season at 3.9 per carry and fade into obscurity. Who would have ever thought that Spurrier would be better at running the football than the house that Vince Dooley and Herschel Walker built would … but they, that's what you get when you hire an FSU guy to coach in the SEC.

Do you know if CPJ has ever recruited TEs instead of WR to play the WR position? With the recent blocking problems I was just wondering if a TE would not be a better fit, like if Peek had stayed instead of transferring. He has great hands and could have easily block most DBs. I know you want speed to draw the CB and safety out sometimes, but I think with a decent stable of big yet athletic tight ends it seems that could be possible.

Live in White Co and go to the games. Here to tell you, if he were in the Metro-Atlanta area, he would be getting a great deal more attention. Most services have him listed 3-Star but I think it should be 4. I wish him the best. He is going to make some people wish they had offered him.

KENTUCKY IS REALY GOING TO TURN HEADS OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS. There recruiting is getting alot better because they can break down talent alot better it seems. UK has a chance this year to win 9 games easly because of the sch this year. They also only loose 3 or 4 starters this year with better talent taking there places… Kentucky got Sanders out of the south last year and in 2 years he will be a house hold name in the south.

Ramblin Man:
The only thing that can fix the blocking problems is better OLs and more production from the passing game. I mean my goodness, Tech is running the triple option out of a spread offense (meaning no FBs or TEs) … you aren't going to be able to pull that off against good defenses without future NFL players on the OL and a passing game that either makes the LBs and safeties defend the sidelines or makes them pay if they don't. Like any other scheme, it's the players. GT doesn't have the horses that Nebraska did in the 90s or Oklahoma in the 80s, and won't win big time until they do. That's why I still say that GT needs some Rodney Garner, Ed Orgeron, Tracey Rocker and Lance Thompson type recruiters.

I also live in white county and watch ashley play on friday nights,I played for white county back in the day,so I do know a little about football.I've known ashley since he was a small kid, my son went to school and played sports with ashley, and I'll tell you he is a good kid, and a heck of an athlete, I agree if he lives in the metro area he gets recruited alot more. So I think if he ends up going to Kentucky they steal one of north georgia's best athletes and a very good kid.So good luck Ashley wherever you end up, and always remember where you came from, You'll be just fine!!!

Multicrystalline silicon solar cell manufacturer Photovoltech in great difficulty
Photovoltech finds itself in great difficulty and announced the intention of a potential collective dismissal and a potential closure of the company.
The European market for cells for solar panels is currently suffering from massive overproduction, a price war and competition from low-cost Asian cell producers. Global production capacity amounted to approximately 50 Gigawatt (GW) in 2011, while demand was limited to 29 GW. Predictions for 2012 and 2013 would not make it possible to absorb this excess capacity. The market has also faced a dramatic decrease in cell prices since early 2011, ranging from 40 to 60%; a decrease that was not compensated by a comparable cost reduction. Within this context Photovoltech is confronted with a structural deficit and the company reported a loss of 120 million Euros for the fiscal year 2011.

Six Six One Recon Helmet
I love this helmet, took a decent fall trying to ride up a technical climb and it took it like a champ, didn't even scuff. The only complaint I have is the velcro that holds the forehead pad in place scratches if I don't slide the helmet on a certain way. Still awesome though fits super

Criminal Minds differs from many procedural dramas by focusing on the criminal rather than the crime itself. The show is produced by The Mark Gordon Company in association with CBS Television Studios and ABC Studios.

Jemma Salume's Dr. Strange Rogues Gallery Collection | Project : Rooftop
Jemma: Marvel's Lovecraftian horror! Well, one of them. Doctor Strange was willing to kill the Ancient One to prevent this guy's manifestation on Earth, so any redesign has to underscore visually how much of a threat to our realm he really is. Making him too huge to exist is a start, and I went further by basing him on a crown-of-thorns starfish, with deadly spikes on his back and creepy tube feet adorning his horrible tentacle arms. The single hateful bloody eye stays, of course.

Why won't anyone believe me.
Well I'm gonna tell you the story of what happened.
And how it's NOT my fault all of this happened.

Emergency Assistance Program
The Emergency Assistance Program provides aid to individuals and families who are in need of immediate assistance. It is designed to provide emergency assistance for people in distress, without discrimination, whose need is brought to The Salvation Army by referral either from another agency or by self-referral. The scope of the service is determined by the needs of the community and available resources of The Salvation Army New Orleans Area Command, which serves the following parishes: Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa and Plaquemines. If additional or long-term services are needed, the client will be given a referral to the Department of Social Services, or other agencies. The Salvation Army Emergency Assistance is available to:
- Families and single individuals with low-income or no income
- Families and single individuals involved in seasonal work
- Families and single individuals moving to the area to accept employment
- Families and single individuals experiencing a crisis because of illness or lay-off, separation, etc.
To establish a need for assistance, an interview is conducted and assessment is done on each applicant. Services are provided based on the need of the client and available resources such as food, clothing, furniture, prescription, fire victim assistance, transportation, rent / mortgage and utility assistance.
Emergency Shelter Program
The Salvation Army Center of Hope Emergency Shelter Program was established as a place where the needy in the city could go to get a hot meal and free lodging for the night. In the years that it has been located in New Orleans, it has provided thousands upon thousands of hot meals and nights of safe lodging. This is in keeping with the mission of The Salvation Army, which is "to meet human needs without discrimination." The program is a complete package of services providing lodging that is clean and comfortable, equipped with a food service and dining program, a carefully protected entrance with security equipment and front desk security on duty around the clock. Routine checks are made throughout the building during sleeping hours. Caseworkers provide social and referral services that are vital to the needs of the clients we serve.
This programprovides overnight lodging for single adults and families who have no other options for shelter because of some personal crisis. There are 50 beds for men, 32 for single women (six are designated for seniors and individuals who are disabled) and 6 rooms for women and children. No one eligible for admission shall be turned away except for lack of space. No one shall be denied admission because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, family status, or nation of origin. Overnight guests seeking a shelter program may meet with a case manager to be screened to determine eligibility for the Women and Children Shelter Program, Created 2 Work, Worker Dorm or the Transitional Housing Program. All participants are expected to cooperate with the rules of the shelter and to cooperate with the residential policy and procedures of The Salvation Army. The shelter provides facilities for showers including towels, soap, deodorant, as well as toothbrushes and toothpaste without charge. Emotional and spiritual care services are also available. Hot meals are provided three times a day for all participants.
Created 2 Work Shelter Housing Program
The Salvation Army Created 2 Work(C2W) Shelter Housing Program offers temporary housing and potential employment opportunities for homeless individuals who have no other options for shelter due to a personal crisis, and is currently unemployed or underemployed; but are physically and mentally capable, and also willing to obtain employment to improve their financial status. The program provides lodging exclusively for a targeted population of single men (32) and women (10).
The immediate goal of the Created 2 Work Program is to provide housing, referral, case management and other supportive services to aid in the process of achieving long-term self-prescribed goals that are directly related to housing and employment sustainability.
The overarching goal of the program is to end homelessness by focusing on increasing the skills and incomes of capable men and women who regularly seek shelter through local emergency shelter programs. Program participants work closely with social service staff including social workers and case managers to identify needs and develop their own personal and individualized plan of action for securing steady employment, developing and maintaining reliable income sources, enhancing life skills, building lasting healthy relationships, increasing nutritional awareness, addressing medical issues appropriately, strengthening spiritual connections and knowledge, locating safe and affordable housing and ultimately making a successful transition from homelessness to independent self-sustained community living with emphasis on strengthening community, family and spiritual relationships.
The objective is to provide housing for at least 32 homeless men and 10 homeless women in a client-centered, goal oriented temporary housing program that is designed to ensure that all participants gain employment, secure permanent and stable housing and opportunities they desire to better themselves. Case managers will advocate for program participants and link them to programs and resources that will enable them to receive emotional, spiritual, medical, mental and physical guidance and care; and assist with navigating through social service systems. Program participants will learn how to access and utilize available resources and services while focusing on building their strengths and being empowered to trust personal decision-making skills.
Transitional Housing Program
Transitional Housing is a live in, long-term residential program (minimum of 7 months and maximum of 24 months) for homeless individuals / families which is designed to support and assist clients in gaining employment and reaching financial / vocational goals toward self-sufficient independent living. The program is also designed to motivate, support and assist residents to obtain permanent housing. Eligible residents for the program are homeless women / single mothers. All residents of the program must be employed or receiving vocational training. In order to accomplish the goal of independence, residents will complete a Family Plan, which will consist of all of the objectives necessary to reach the goal of independent living. A Salvation Army case manager will assist all residents in developing a Family Plan.
The Transitional Housing program is located on the 4th floor of The Salvation Army's Center of Hope building. There are 10 apartments on the 4th floor; each apartment includes two bedrooms, a living room, full bath, kitchenette and complete furnishings. A communal laundry room is available for each family in the program.
Women & Children Shelter Program
The Salvation Army's Women and Children Program (WCP) is a 16-bed facility exclusively for single women with children. The overarching goal of the program is to end the homelessness of the eligible program participants by their attainment of permanent or suitable alternative long-term housing. To achieve this goal, each resident is assisted to secure employment and save monies to acquire permanent or long-term housing. By providing a safe, clean and stable living environment, there is adequate time and support for each resident to address their personal barriers to obtaining and maintaining employment / vocational training and budgeting monies to eventually obtain permanent housing.
Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities Services
According to The Salvation Army data the baby boomers, 55-plus age, is the fastest-growing population in the country. In addition, many seniors work their entire lives earning minimum wage at nonunion jobs. Sometimes they are left with no other cushion of savings, thereby when hard times prevail they are unfortunately the most vulnerable to become homeless. This makes a compelling argument for the Center of Hope to have a program that provides assurances for senior benefits. Educational classes and seminars would be the conduit for this assistance as to obtain and secure benefits.
Additionally, the Center of Hope mission is to provide emergency shelter and employment incentives with housing opportunities for our senior and individuals with disabilities, which includes hot meal programs. The seniors and individuals with disabilities program is designed to assist with affordable and permanent housing options and financial literacy through case management as to eradicate the cycle of homelessness with after care if warranted. Each of these processes assist seniors and individuals with disabilities with provision of a variety of activities to meet their diverse needs. Here at the Center of Hope there is an atmosphere of respect and understanding; it is a safe wholesome environment where seniors and individuals with disabilities can develop new friendships and regain stability by securing the benefits they are due, as well as employment if desired.
Case Management Services
It is noted, by the founder of The Salvation Army William Booth, "That persons in dire physical, emotional, financial need required focused attention on those needs as an expression of God's love and as a pathway to addressing other needs such as spiritual needs." Booth desired that The Salvation Army address client needs compassionately and skillfully. Thus, he set standards of service that still apply to Salvation Army casework today. Here at the Center of Hope we desire to continue to demonstrate compassion, as well as offer our case management services to our participants by providing sustainable housing options through our rapid re-housing programs and community resource thus; provisional access to short–term and long-term supports and services minimizes confusion concerning accessibility, and enhancement of choice and opportunities for individual and family sustainability.
The case management component to our services provides critical linkages designed to help prevent the revolving door of homelessness and institutionalization style and type expectations. Our social service team implements preliminary assessments with modalities in order to properly advice and support each participant. Our overall goal of case management balances critical needs of participants with the various resources available. Thus, matching participant needs to community based capacities and coordinating service delivery through cost effectiveness. The Center of Hope case management methodologies are results oriented with social service delivery with compassion and dignity as appropriate for sustainable outcomes with a quality lifestyle focus for the participant.

"Chicago Fire " recap (1.11): "It's not too late to switch teams."
Their moment is cut short by a call to a car accident. A driver plowed into a crowd and the crowd is getting angry and threatening the driver and those helping him. Dawson, smart cookie that she is, realizes the driver isn't drunk but is having a stroke and tries to get him out of the pissed off crowd. One guy isn't having any of it and confronts the crew for helping the driver. Severide goes all macho and threatens to remove the guy but Casey remembers all about dealing with toddlers from his I-can't-wait-to-have-a-kid parenting classes and gets the big dude to help out. Suddenly, no one's mad anymore and off they go to the hospital. Man, those Batman underoos sure pulled through this time.
Shay is being wheeled out of the hospital and bitching about it the whole way. When she gets to the doors Dawson and Severide are waiting for her with a new plan. Dawson is all dolled up and looks ready for a date. We have seen her done up for dates, parties, and now for Leslie Elizabeth Shay's release from the hospital. But they're just friends. Right.
"Hey girl, want to ditch the third wheel and unload that UHaul?"
Next thing we know Dawson is telling Mills that she made the meal just for Shay but then Shay cancelled. She tells him he's the only friend she has that would appreciate the work she put into the meal. Who you make braised short ribs for? The girl you want to sleep with, not the girl who is crashing at your place! Sigh.
"Don't think I got pretty and cooked for you, Peter Mills"
So Mills is enjoying date night dinner with Dawson instead. Come on! If Shay gets pissed about Severide snaking her post-coital yogurt I can only imagine her reaction when she finds out Mills ate her whole date night dinner. There's no dessert because, Dawson obviously had other plans for Shay, plans not involving food but Peter Mills is handy and offers to make her something. As much as it pains me to say the Dawson-Mills relationship is growing on me. It's not Shawson but they have a better dynamic, I think, than the Dawson-Casey clusterf@#k.
Casey is about to have dinner at his sister's house but tells her that he is going to recommend parole for mommy murderer and the sister hands him the picture she was going to give him after dinner and closes the door in his face. Whoops.
Shay and Severide are hanging out. He bought her Deadliest Catch and mint chip ice cream and they tell each other how much they love each other and then they make out. Just kidding. Severide tells Shay that he's going to meet with a surgeon about his neck and that Dawson helped him find a program that will help him with his drug problem if he needs it.
He tells Shay he doesn't know what he would do if he lost her and she tells him that's how she feels about him too. She says she's proud of him and that if she were straight she'd "throw the biggest hump into" him. But because these writers know that lesbians don't sleep with dudes, no matter how pretty they are, she doesn't. Bros to the end, these two.
Dawson and Mills are playing a game of "name that bone" and I feel a little icky about it but they get busy with the sexy times just as Casey starts calling Dawson's phone. Take a note or two Casey and next time don't kiss her on the cheek.
Milson, getting in the way of Shawson since 2013.
Apparently Shawson isn't happening, at least not soon. So I am nominating some ladies for the Leslie Shay dating Olympics. I nominate Bonnie Somerville because I kind of love her and thought she was hilarious, awkward, and just so pretty on Cashmere Mafia. Come to think of it, maybe Tyra and Hot Molly from Emily Owens, M.D. can get a transfer to Chicago and Chicago Fire could turn into the place for gay ladies from cancelled shows. Cue the Sarah McLachlan song and voiceover: "Lesbians from cancelled shows are fictional people, too, and they need a home. Donate to help relocate these poor ladies to Chicago so they can pitch a little woo at Leslie Shay." Who do you want to see romancing our Shay?
From the preview for the next episode, it looks like there will be some awkward moments in the Dawson-Mills-Casey triangle next week as well as a potentially career ending surgery for Severide.
Finally, it has been pointed out that perhaps we need an AfterEllen specific hashtag for those who like to play along with the episodes on Twitter. Nominate your favorite in the comments and we'll pick one to use.

Just because DOTs aren't a major part of the balance druid's damage doesn't mean the druid itself isn't going to do decent damage. Don't forget both Insect Swarm and Starfire now work kind of like Death Knight diseases (improving our direct damage from our main nukes) via the Improved Insect Swarm Talent. Glyphs haven't been revised yet and we could see that sort of thing (or other DOT buffs) go into Glyphs.
Well, depending on the player and with the sole exception of some seriously high end raiding (hard mode LK level players) moonkin are on a pretty even playing field with mages.
A great moonkin can out damage even a solid mage. The issue is more that as the spec gets further and further in to content it becomes *less* interesting.
As it stands, I'm using a single dot for the purpose of a small buff to my nuke I'm using with Eclipse and to keep a crit buff. Where as the spec used to use DoTs as a regular part of the rotation, they're just afterthoughts now.
This isn't quite as bad as BC, where we just cast Starfire over and over again, but it still is a sad state to see what're currently talented spells fall off of use due to poor scaling.

SPOKANE, Wash.—A former Spokane County Commissioner was getting international attention for his alpinist accomplishments in 2014. John Roskelley was awarded the Piolets d'Or Lifetime Achievement Award. Only five other alpinists in the world had ever received the award. Roskelley was the first American.
Roskelley is known around the world for his difficult and daring expeditions.
Roskelley and his climbing partner Chris had been climbing for 50 years. Roskelley, Chris and two other Spokane climbers were the first Americans to climb Mt. Makalu in Nepal.
The mountain is the fifth highest mountain in the world at 28,000 feet.
"We did one of the hardest routes in the world. Without Sherpas and without oxygen and it's the fifth highest mountain in the world," said Roskelley.
Roskelley was the first American to climb K2 in Pakistan in 1978. He was the first person ever to reach the summit of Garishanker in Nepal and Uhlibiaho in Pakistan. He also climbed Mt. Everest with his son in 2003.
A climbing committee awarded Roskelley with Piolets d'Or lifetime achievements award in Courmayeur, Italy.
"To be selected among this group is really a humbling experience," said Roskelley. "More than anything I think the award tells me I chose the right partners over the time I've been climbing."
Roskelley said he hoped the award would bring more attention to many other talented climbers in Spokane.
His achievements inducted him into the Empire Hall of Fame. He also won the National Underhill Award for Alpinism from the American Alpine Club.

Apple's newest operating system supports WebGL and IndexedDB, two standards that'll make websites much more capable on its mobile devices. Also new: a faster Web with SPDY.
A standard called IndexedDB, useful for storing lots of data on a computer for tasks such as Web apps that work offline, is getting closer to being useful for Web developers.
Web developers, brace yourselves for Firefox 4 features. One in particular, IndexedDB, gives Web applications new data storage abilities.
Google's online spreadsheet app now works offline, too. Also: a more responsive interface, higher limits on the number of cells, and the ability to put private data into a shared spreadsheet.
Internet Explorer is still saddled with a reputation for being slow and behind the technology curve. Its developers clearly want to change that.

Sioux City businesses are getting a lesson on becoming blue.
Around 27 local businesses attended Thursday's Blue Zones Worksite class at Western Iowa Tech's campus.
Though Blue Zones officials led the class, they felt the business leaders would learn most from companies that have already gone through the process.
Van Meter, Sioux City's first Blue Zones Worksite, shared advice; as well as Unity Point Health-St. Luke's and Palmer Candy Company.
Both businesses are nearing the finish line in the race to become the next designated Blue Zones Worksite.
"Because it is so much a part of our culture and what we believe in for our employees, to have gotten this far in the process and to be able to help other worksites in the community also get there just means that many more people in the Siouxland area that's going to be working at a worksite that focuses on wellness," said Hanna Reinders, Human Resources Manager at Palmer Candy, Co.
The class also offered businesses the opportunity to register for the Blue Zones Program.
Officials say more than 20 Sioux City businesses are registered as of now.

DUI for Prescription Drugs
If you have ever had a medication prescription, you understand how the medication can make you feel better. Sometimes, it may be nearly impossible to even operate in daily life without the medication. Prescription drug routines often become a way of life for patients. Many prescription drugs are mandatory and must be taken daily or even more regularly. If you have a medication that contains certain ingredients, it is always possible that you can be accused of a DUI under current Colorado laws.
If you have been charged with a DUI because of your prescription medication, make sure that you consult legal counsel who's experienced in the nuances of a prescription drug offense. Jeremy Rosenthal has helped numerous patients accused of driving under the influence while on their prescribed medications helping defend the rights of people in this dire circumstance.
Prescription drug ingredients
Drowsy feelings are typical of medications for a variety of different illnesses. One thing many people may not be aware of is that there are a lot of medications that contain some alcohol. Other medications may also contain products that induce a similar reaction to alcohol. Still other medications have ingredients that can be debilitating if combined with the wrong "other ingredients". These unintended reactions can often put a patient in danger of being under the influence.
Under the Influence
Most people believe that driving under the influence is being under the influence of drugs or other illegal narcotics while behind the wheel of a vehicle. The definition of being under the influence has changed, and now those who are under the influence of any drugs, even prescription medication can be charged with a crime if their ability to drive has been impaired. It is important that you look up possible effects of your medication and driving so you know if there's a danger with any of your medications.
Get the Help You Need
If you have been charged with a DUI for prescription drugs, you need to seek legal help immediately. An experienced DUI lawyer is the only person who will be able to help with your defense. A person who drives while under the influence of alcohol can be vastly different than someone who simply took their prescription medication and got behind the wheel of a car.
Lenience can be exercised for those who did not knowingly break the law, or did not cause a major accident while being charged with a DUI. Don't try to navigate these waters alone when the downside of a poor defense can be catastrophic!
The Difference Jeremy Rosenthal Can Make
The Law Offices of Jeremy Rosenthal will be able to provide you with a defense that can help you decrease any negative effects of your DUI charge. In some situations, Attorney Rosenthal may be able to have your case thrown out, or may be able to suggest lower criminal penalties, such as reduced fines and a record that can be wiped clean in the future. These options are all discussions you'll want to have with Jeremy Rosenthal during your initial free consultation. Now is not the time to try and "go it alone". Pick up the phone and make your free initial consultation appointment right now!

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) – This past week, 16 people have died in house fires in Kentucky, three of them Saturday in Richmond.
Those fatalities came just two days after tragedy struck the Watson family in Muhlenberg County. The suspected cause in both cases is directly related to how the families were keeping warm. This has sent fire departments on an all out safety blitz.
"We'll come out and do safety home inspections for our residents free of charge," Lyndon Fire Department's Rick Baker said.
They are offering to install a smoke detector, give people batteries and make sure they are using space heaters properly.
"As dry as everything is especially in an older structure, it doesn't take a lot to ignite," Graham Volunteer Fire Department Chief Duane Harvey told WAVE 3 News. He was the first fire official to get to the Watson family home after the call about the fire.
Geography may have something to do with it. The U.S. Fire Administration says fire problems vary by region depending on climate, poverty and education. They've ranked Kentucky as 80 percent higher than the national average for risk of dying in a house fire.
Chief Harvey wishes there could've be a way to save the nine who died Thursday morning.
"It's just hard. But we're going to have to deal with it," he said.
Lyndon Fire isn't the only department that offers free home inspections. The Louisville Fire Department does as well.
To make a request for a home inspection for Louisville Fire, call MetroCall at 311 or 574-5000.
You can also follow this link: http://www.louisvilleky.gov/LouisvilleFire/IWantTo/Fire_Safety_Home_Inspection2.htm
For Lyndon Fire, call (502) 425-7474.
Many other local departments would be happy to help you, as well. Just give them a call.

Admission to graduate programs and applications for fellowships often requires testing of prior learning. The most commonly used of these examinations is the Graduate Record Examination, or GRE.
The GRE
The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is a computer-based test designed to measure quantitative, analytical, and language abilities. Your specific graduate program website will indicate their GRE requirements.
To qualify for fellowships, many graduate programs require that you take the GRE by the October or December before your fall admission. Subject tests are offered on specific dates, but dates fill up quickly, so plan ahead. ETS, the administrator of the GRE, offers detailed information on its website.
Professional schools or programs at IUPUI may require other, more specialized tests, such as the GMAT for business or the LSAT for law. Check the website of your program of interest for more information.
Testing for International Students
International students may be required to take additional tests for admission.
TOEFL Exam
International students from non-English speaking countries must take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) examination and score above 79 on the iBT version of the test in order to qualify for graduate study at IUPUI. The Office for International Affairs offers further information on TOEFL requirements on its website.
IELTS Exam
An alternative testing system for English language skills is the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). International applicants to graduate programs at IUPUI who use this credential must score at least a 6.5 in order to qualify for admission.
English for Academic Purposes (EAP)
Unless you hold a degree from an English-speaking institution or scored above 100 on the iBT version of the TOEFL, you'll need to take the EAP examination upon arrival at IUPUI. If any language courses are required on the basis of the examination, these must be started during the first term at IUPUI and finished within the first year.
The Department of English lists information such as test dates, testing locations, registration instructions, and more.

Georgia Tech is the frontrunner with Jefferson County's B.J. Bostic, one of the Southeast's top "athletes."
But that could change at any moment with Bostic, who is making an unofficial visit this weekend to Florida. Bostic has offers from Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, UCLA, Connecticut, Central Florida, Kentucky, Maryland. He is also getting heavy interest from Florida, UGA, Michigan and West Virginia.
"Georgia Tech is still my No. 1, and Mississippi State is right there behind them," Bostic told the AJC. "And all the other schools are pretty much even."
What if Florida offers? "If Florida offered me, they might move out front. I'm supposed to talk with [Urban Meyer] later tonight or Saturday after the Florida spring game. They haven't offered yet. But if they do, I just … don't know."
North Gwinnett lineman JaWuan James and Henry County wide receiver Markeith Ambles are some of the other top Georgia prospects visiting Florida this week.
The 5-foot-10, 165-pound Bostic runs the 40-yard dash in 4.39 seconds. He is being recruited at defensive back and wide receiver. Bostic's cousin, Jefferson County defensive end Chris Crenshaw, signed with Georgia Tech in February.

And what is your record against UF the last 11 years again sswin??? Looks like a little nutt hunting of your own doesn't it?? lol

thats great that you are hanging on to your recent 7 game streak so tightly. you dont see all the tech fans hanging on to our 8 game streak over you guys way back when or our 3 game streak in the late 90's. That is the ebb and flow of college football by friend. As pointed out above by Mr. B, if you go by streaks you may not want to every head to Jacksonville again.
Point is, you measure your program by preseason hype, recruiting class ranking, stadium size and attendance and the success of the legitimate powerhouses that are in your conference (something you strive to be but cannot get over the hump).
April 11th, 2009
10:05 am
sorry- I prematurely hit send (it is too early to talk trash!)
what I was saying is-
Tech measures their program by conference and national titles. If UGA doesnt figure out a way to stop our offense this game will become more and more irrelevant.
Judging from what I saw out of Preacher Richts ability to match wits with CPJ last November you may not want to hitch your wagon to the streak argument, as it is obviously not going your way. Go back to the old UGA standards- game attendance, SI covers and how good UF and LSU do on the national landscape.
GO Jackets!

Dawgs are all bark and no bite. Notice how quite, no NC talk. Started '08 season as NC's and ended the season losing to UF, UA, GT and no SEC and no NC anywhere in sight! You are on the national stage? UGA is and will continue to operate in the shadows of SEC Elite.
April 11th, 2009
6:28 pm
Where exactly is GT? Not even in the shadows. Your envy is obvious, otherwise you wouldn't troll the UGA blogs looking for trouble. Concratulations on yuour win last year, its nice to re-warm the rivalry every now and again, it was getting boring. You know, you let your younger brother score a few times so he won't lose all interst and go home.
April 11th, 2009
7:19 pm
Except this is a Tech board Mitch… Who's trolling on their rival's board again?
Yea UGA had a good run while we had a mediocre coaching staff but that has changed. If PJ can beat MR in his first season with a bunch of freshman against a preseason #1 UGA team I cannot wait to see what will happen as the team matures.
If either team thinks this will be an easy win while PJ and MR are around they need to stop drinking the cool-aid. It will be a battle every year and I look forward to it. I'll see you canines in ATL this November for round 2.

1-0 with Paul Johnson.

I think this kid would rather play with the best defensive backs in the state at GT. He can play with an All American SS and a true freshman Freshman all American in Rashad Reid.

4:45 pm
Get prepared for more beatings UGA under Paul Johnson. Bostic is going to look good in that GT uniform next year. UGA 08 most overrated team in history? Ha freakin jokes. 45-42
April 12th, 2009
11:50 pm
1 out of the last 8 for the Yellow Jackets. Blind squirrels find nuts every now and then. Tech wins by 3 and their fans think their team is world beaters.
Yo, GA fans….WINNING streaks have to start with a WIN. And a win is a win. The Jackets can't get to 2-0, 3-0, 4-0, etc, etc, without first getting to 1-0.
And GA fans thinking PJ's Tech teams will be 1-7 vs. GA are in for some miserable "365 days of gloating" in the years to come.
A different coaching staff, instilling a different mindset amongst its players.
April 17th, 2009

Funny to hear poodles brag about streaks. The fact is, the Gators have three national championships more recently than the poodles have three victories over UF. Puts into perspective the standing of two programs. There will be a flood of top quality Georgia athletes heading for Gainesville, but only the very best are invited. Time will tell if Bostic is in that elite category who wants to play in the big time.

|Bobcats' Morrison recovering from difficult rookie year
|Written by Admin
|Monday, 18 June 2007 21:40
Heckled all night as he sat on the bench in street clothes in Miami, nursing a sore knee, the Charlotte Bobcats rookie turned to a fan behind the bench - the one who kept calling him ``white trash'' - and made an obscene gesture.
That moment in a meaningless late-season game was the boiling point in a disappointing year. Weighed down by the pressure of being the No. 3 pick in the draft and a role model for youngsters with diabetes, Morrison struggled. He averaged 11.8 points but shot only 38 percent, playing with a body not quite ready for the rigors of an 82-game schedule.
``It was a little difficult at times not being able to perform like I wanted to and kind of hearing the whispers and whatnot,'' Morrison said Monday. ``But that comes with being a high draft pick. I'm just looking forward to this year and getting a new start, turning over a new leaf.''
Starting over was something Morrison kept bringing up during a telephone interview from Washington, where he is scheduled to testify before Congress on Tuesday to urge for more federal funding for diabetes research. Morrison acknowledged he couldn't wait for last season to end.
``Just to clear my head and get back to basics,'' Morrison said.
Morrison made the NBA's all-rookie second team, but his numbers - and patience - declined late in the season. Morrison had nine games of 22 or more points in the first two months of the season, but only two in the final 3 1/2 months. He was moody and avoided reporters.
Never known as a good defender, the former Gonzaga star - who led the nation in scoring in 2005-06 - saw his playing time diminish. There were whispers that his Type 1 diabetes was wearing him down.
``I was fatigued, but I don't want to say it was because of diabetes,'' said Morrison, who shot 34 percent from 3-point range. ``Every rookie kind of goes through that. You play 30-something games throughout your whole college career and 20-something in high school, then you jump to 82. So for me, I think it was just my body not being used to it.''
Then-coach Bernie Bickerstaff wasn't concerned with Morrison's diabetes, but rather his strength. Morrison was sent home to Spokane, Wash. with a conditioning and strength program to follow. Morrison hired a strength coach and has been working out with him four days a week.
``We need him to come back and really kind of establish himself at the beginning of the season,'' new coach Sam Vincent said late last week. ``We're hoping that he's really going to take it serious and come really focused to give us what we need this year.''
Vincent said that either he or an assistant coach would fly to Spokane this summer to check on Morrison. But Morrison saved the Bobcats on airfare when he agreed to take part in the team's rookie camp and play on the Bobcats' summer league team.
When that's over on July 13, Morrison plans to stay in Charlotte - where he recently bought a home - for the rest of the summer.
``It will be good for me to learn his system and his style of coaching and how they want to move the organization forward,'' Morrison said of Vincent. ``He seems like a really nice guy. He seems really motivated.''
The shaggy-haired Morrison, fined $25,000 for the incident in Miami, knows he'll be the subject of taunts throughout his career. He just hopes he can quiet the visiting crowds with his game - like he did in college.
``I'm disappointed in how I performed, shooting percentage-wise,'' Morrison said. ``I had some good games, a good start to the season. If I could just get my percentage up a little bit, the points will go up.
``I want to make sure I'm ready to go for next season. I look at it as a new beginning I guess.''

|True to his school, Bill Clinton picks Georgetown for Final Four
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 21 March 2008 07:09
The former president also chose North Carolina, Memphis and UCLA to get to San Antonio. Clinton made his predictions on James Carville's and Luke Russert's XM Radio show.
Georgetown, a No. 2 seed, opens Friday against 15th-seeded Maryland-Baltimore County, a newcomer to the NCAAs.
When asked who would win the title, Clinton said: ``My heart's with Georgetown, but my head tells me it's going to be Carolina or Memphis.
``If you look at Carolina, they have been able to run with everybody this year, as well as play that powerful inside game, which is why I kind of favor them.''
In what appears to be agreement cutting across the political spectrum, Sens. Barack Obama and John McCain have said they are going with the Tar Heels.
Obama also has Kansas, Pittsburgh and UCLA in the Final Four, with North Carolina beating UCLA in the championship game. McCain put Kansas, Memphis and Connecticut in his Final Four bracket on his Web site. He predicts North Carolina will defeat UConn in the final.

is my computer running so poorly?The
majority of computer errors, system instability and
crashes can be traced back to errors or corruption of
the Windows registry. If you've been using your computer
for any amount of time, chances are you have multiple
Windows registry errors. Some people who have been
running their computers for a year or more have
literally hundreds of errors in their Windows registry,
causing serious issues with system
performance. How do registry errors affect my
computer?You know all those problems you've
been having with your PC? The decrease in system
performance, the increase in system crashes and
freezing... These things can all be caused by registry
errors. How did I get registry errors in the
first place?Every computer that runs on a
Windows OS has a registry, and every Windows registry
ends up with errors eventually. Downloading from the
INternet, installing and uninstalling programs, deleting
unwanted files ? all of these things can cause errors in
your Windows registry, leading to serious performance
issues for your PC. Can't I just get rid of my Windows
registry?No, if you are operating your
computer on a Windows OS, you must have a Windows
registry. Without the registry, Windows cannot operate
properly and it is not possible to remove the registry
from your system. What happens if I ignore it and
leave my registry alone?Your computer's
performance definitely won't improve and will probably
get much worse over time. In the worst-case scenario,
your computer experiences a fatal error and you need to
take it in to get the entire hard drive reformatted or
you need to buy a brand new computer. It is much easier,
less frustrating and more cost-effective to repair the
errors in your registry before it gets too
bad. Can't I just sort through the
registry myself and remove the errors?It
doesn't make sense to sort through the registry
yourself. First of all, you probably don't know what to
look for, what to remove and what to leave alone. Even
if you did have enough experience and knowledge to
repair your registry manually, it would take you days to
do something that RegCLEAN can do in mere minutes.
Shouldn't I hire a professional to
fix my registry?Not unless you want to throw
away money. You need to repair your registry on a
regular basis, and that can get expensive if you keep
hiring a professional every time you need your registry
repaired. With RegCLEAN, you don't have to deal with
that continued expense. What is RegCLEAN?RegClean
is a Windows Registry Cleaner, Kernel32 DLL Error
Message Fix & Access Violation Repair Software. But
what does that mean to you? Put simply, RegCLEAN will
scan your registry, finding all of the errors causing
your PC problems, and will then repair those errors
instantaneously. Why is RegCLEAN better than a
computer tech?First of all, RegCLEAN is more
cost effective. In addition to that, RegCLEAN can
probably do a better job than your computer tech,
depending on what your computer tech uses to repair your
registry. For all you know, your computer tech is
charging you more than $100 and then turning around and
using RegCLEAN to do the work
Is RegCLEAN easy to
use?Yes, RegCLEAN is VERY easy to use. It is
very user-friendly and the intuitive prompts lead you
through the entire registry repair process.
How long does it take for RegCLEAN
to fix my computer?The exact amount of time
it takes for RegCLEAN to fix your computer will depend
on how many errors are in your registry. In most cases,
RegCLEAN will take just a few short minutes to repair
and resolve your registry problems.
Do I have to keep on using RegCLEAN,
or do I only have to do it once?As you
continue to use your computer, you will continue to get
registry errors. Because of this, you will want to use
RegCLEAN on a continual basis.
If your
computer?s performance is less than optimal, you
can?t afford not to scan your computer with our

Games for Lunch: Wade Hixton's Counter Punch
0:00 Like most of you readers, I had never heard of this oddly named game, but I decided to rent this game after a guy I interviewed for a totally unrelated story mentioned he had worked on it.
0:01 Weird, synth-y techno plays over a cartoony title screen. The art style reminds me a bit of Dragon's Lair.
0:02 "Meet Wade Hixton ... just an average guy with no particular hopes and dreams..." He has the ability to fix anything with duct tape, though. O...K. He's wearing boxing gloves AS HE DRIVES. Anyway, his car breaks down. A tow-truck driver luckily comes by. It'll take a while to fix. The tow truck takes him to a pub. NO. Don't take rides from strangers, Wade!
0:03 The pub is "where folks come for the drinks and stay until someone gets their face bashed in." Wade orders a grape soda -- but he sat in Rocco McScrub's seat. Rocco calls him "fizz-guzzlin' trash." BURN! "Put on your gloves and protective mouthpiece," Rocco suggests, in an uncharacteristic display of kindness.
0:04 Into the game. It has a very Super Punch-Out feel -- Wade is seen semi-transparently from behind. Stick and move, dodge and punch is the name of the game. The animation is excellent... lots of frames and good, large, expressive 2-D characters. Nice character design, too. I can feel it when Wade gets hit.
0:05 Rocco just threw a raccoon at me! More as it develops.
0:06 I knock Rocco down, though I'm almost done for, myself. A weird-looking ref comes out and gives a ridiculously slow nine-count before Rocco gets up. So far, it's kind of hard to judge when to dodge.
0:07 Rocco's up and back at full health. Lame. I get knocked down quickly, but I get up and dodge a second raccoon. Round one ends. "Has anyone seen my left kidney?" asks Wade. "I'm gonna recycle you, punk." Is Rocco a planeteer?
0:08 I could do without the trailer-trash ring babe announcing round two. The wolf whistle in the background also seems gratuitous.
0:09 Only an eight-count this time. I'm filling up a green bar with each connecting punch, but I don't know how to activate whatever power it represents.
0:11 I lose my focus and my third trip to the canvas is my last. Rocco has only three or so moves, and the timing is a bit tricky on dodging all of them. I get booted out to the bar.
0:12 Seems the ref is also the bartender. He laughs at me in my defeat. The trailer-trash ring girl tries to encourage me to try again. They won't serve me drinks until I win a few bouts.
0:13 Line of the moment. Bartender: "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to find my pants." Wha? Never mind, back to fighting.
0:15 A discovery! The R button uppercuts. More as it develops.
0:17 I just noticed you have to dodge each punch in the correct direction, or it'll still hit. No wonder I thought the timing was weird.
0:19 Knockout! Took long enough. The uppercuts helped get in more damage with each set, but I still don't know what that green bar does. Rocco uses a similar bar to throw a raccoon... I want to throw a raccoon too! But how?!
0:21 This game has gone from weird to freaky. Don, a boxing manager, tells me to take a beeper so I can find out about fights, even though I seem reluctant to want to fight anymore, at all. A map screen opens up with a bunch of locales, and I pick one. Suddenly I'm fighting a guy named Sweetness who talks like Snoop Dogg and dresses like a pimp.
0:25 Sweetness' fight goes a lot like Rocco's, except he's faster, and no raccoons. "My bruises complement my shoes," he says. Um...
0:28 "Izzle fizzle wizzle," Sweetness mumbles after I defeat him. One thing I like: mashing buttons to gain energy when you knock down the opponent. One thing I don't like: You can't uppercut when holding "up" on the d-pad.
0:30 The bartender still won't give me a drink, even though I have two wins! Lame.
0:31 Mac's still working on my car. Or, rather, his "best guy" is. He's working "twenty-five/seven." Heh.
0:32 At the gardens, I accidentally trample some pansies and anger the gardener, Jobu, who looks like a stereotypical tribal African if ever I saw one.
0:34 Blocking up or down works just as well as dodging. Good to know. You know what else would be good to know? HOW TO DO MY GREEN METER SPECIAL MOVE!
0:35 Jobu's knocked out after hitting the mat twice. Those wacky tribesmen...
0:36 Guess I'll check my pager messages. Jobu challenges me to a match where I can win $5 if I win without blocking. Doesn't sound too hard, especially since I hadn't been blocking at all till about five seconds ago.
0:37 And... it wasn't that hard. Go fig. I have no idea what that $5 gets me. I don't even see it represented on-screen.
0:38 A-ha... Hitting the R button on the map screen gets a status menu. I have $95. Intriguingly, it says "Hired: Nobody." Do I get to become a manager later?
0:39 Gus Incubus in my next match. "Only the finest all-beef franks, charbroiled on the fire of hell." Heh. The writing is cute.
0:41 Damn, Gus is fast, and hard to read. Four quick knockdowns and I'm done for.
0:42 I give in and decide to look up how to use the green bar power on GameFAQs. There's only one FAQ for the game. Better than zero, I guess.
0:45 I'm already learning. Hitting "select" lets you buy funny hats for the ref. Finally, something to do with my hard-earned cash.
0:46 This FAQ reads like a doctoral thesis! Apparently, I can buy special green bar moves later. For now, it's superfluous. Sigh.
0:49 The ref looks funny in his funny hat. Tee-hee.
0:52 Gus Incubus goes down in the rematch, though I got knocked down three times in the process. Characters all seem pretty similar, with four different punches and a special move. There's lots of animation, but not much "character" to the characters, especially compared to Super Punch-Out.
0:53 Wade calls a rave girl a "clown," and she's so insulted that they box. You can't make this stuff up.
0:54 Rave girl's special move turns the lights go out and makes me dodge her glow-sticks. That was kind of cool...
0:56 I'm down for the count. She's difficult, mainly because I can't see thin frame her behind my transparent form.
0:59 And I lose the rematch. She's just too quick, and hard to see. Have I already hit the wall?
Would I play this game for more than an hour?: No.
Why? Excellent animation and some witty writing aren't enough to save painfully simple, repetitive and uninteresting game play.
This column based on a retail copy of the game rented from GameFly.

Violation and big news!1 Reviews
Brendon is violated by Ray, the usual. Mikey laughs at it, the usual. But Brendon later gives them news that shocks them all.
-Third Person-
"Move, you pieces of unicorn turd, can't you see how depressed I am!?" screeched Mikey as he forced some innocent coffee drinkers to away from his and his friend's couch. He then collapsed on said couch and sighed audibly. The young man was getting some rather odd looks but that wasn't too unusual for him. He was, however, managing to make everyone in the small Starbuck's occasionally jump from his sounds of distress. Bob, the guy who worked at the counter, was about to tell him to shut the fuck up when an energetic man in his early twenties bounded through the door.
"The usual, Brendon?" Bob asked the man who had just arrived. Brendon grinned and nodded, before noticing his odd friend sprawled out on the couch.
"Mikey, what on earth are you doing?" he questioned, bewildered.
"Spencer moved out without giving me any notice!" came a muffled voice; the words were broken apart by the occasional sob. Brendon raised a perfectly groomed eyebrow, he had never heard of a Spencer. As far as he knew, no one in the group had any connections with a person named Spencer.
"Are you saying you had a roommate? One that none of us knew about!?" Mikey just grunted in response and Brendon took the noise as a yes. He was about to get incredibly mad at his friend for being too damn secretive but he was cut off by a loud, obnoxious exclamation behind him.
Brendon could tell who it was instantly, without needing to turn around. His eyes quickly darted around the room searching for an escape route. Mikey also knew who it was and shot up immediately, all signs of sadness were erased from his face. Brendon could see the smirk his slightly taller friend was wearing and knew that he would just torture him with the person who was still stood at the entrance.
"I think my balls just shot back up inside my body." squeaked Brendon. He closed his eyes tight and hoped that the situation would just evaporate and he could just go back to poking fun at Mikey's weirdness.
"Ray Toro, I suppose you're here to see your soul mate?" it was more of a statement than a question from Mikey. He winked playfully at Brendon who was also receiving sympathetic glances from Bob.
"Actually I'm just here for the coffee. Brendon certainly isn't painful to look at though!" Ray drawled, making sure to add a painfully loud cackle afterwards. His 'fro moved along with his mad, mad head filled with thoughts about stalking Brendon.
Ray and Brendon had been to the same high school, which was where they had met. Ray had always been openly gay but Brendon was most certainly sure that he was as straight as… well, a straight thing. That hadn't deterred the man with the large 'fro though as he kept popping up everywhere Brendon went. That had been happening for a good couple of years and it had gone beyond creepy or terrifying.
Despite the known creepiness though, Mikey still believed that it was a good idea to for the three of them to sit down together. Brendon had to suffer through what felt like hours of budging away from Ray who was getting closer to his… cockular area with every passing second. In reality it had only been ten minutes but even that was enough for a much violated Mr Urie. Luckily a man known as Patrick Stump walked in at the exact moment of Brendon practically being pinned against the edge of the couch.
"RAY, I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN AGES!" shouted Patrick at first sight of the man's signature 'fro. They said their hello's while Brendon fixed his hair before glaring daggers at Mikey who was silently pissing himself with laughter. It was always Mikey who got Brendon into those situations, either accidentally or on purpose.
"It's strange how you two always bump into each other." noted Patrick while talking to Ray.
"Our perfect love and destiny is the reason for that." sighed Ray, twirling some curls of his hair like a school girl and staring at the violated man with wide eyes. They were eyes you would normally see in a mental hospital.
The pretty awkward conversation continued for another twenty minutes before Ray got a call from his office. After he had left, Brendon actually got on his knees and thanked the lord. He then received quite a bit of teasing from Mikey and Patrick before they decided to go to their friend Ryan's apartment.
-Ryan's POV-
I was staring at the nudist who lived in the apartment across the alleyway from me. I didn't want to be considered a pervert but Jared Leto-'Sexy Naked Guy'-was pretty damn attractive. Of course my eyes would be drawn to a naked sex God when I can see into his apartment so easily. Obviously I was pretty irritated when a knock on my door disrupted my own twisted version of pervert playboy. I quickly closed the curtains and turned the TV on to make myself look less creepy and answered the door. I saw Mikey, Patrick and Brendon stood there with grins plastered on their faces.
"Oh, hi guys! Come in. I'm guessing you're here for food but I'm out, want me to call for pizza?" I went into obsessive host mode since I now had people to entertain. No more staring at Jared for me that night, it seemed.
"Ooh, yes, I want meat!" said Patrick to which he received whacks on the arm and reminders that Mikey was a pescetarian and Brendon was a vegetarian. I managed to stop them from fighting too much and told them that it would be easy to just order more than one pizza.
After about two hours we had finished eating and I had made each and every plate absolutely spotless. Hey, I just like cleanliness. We sat, and stood, around the table in my kitchen and started chatting. I made some remarks about cooking and organizational skills while Patrick had started a rant about how much he loved food. After a while, Brendon said something that he seemed to be unsure about telling us.
"You'll never guess what Gerard told me the other day," he began.
