Greg Schiano and the Buccaneers long for the days of replacement refs
October 24th, 2012 by Chris HumpherysI saw two things this Sunday that I can't say I've ever seen before, three if you consider the fact that the Buccaneers had a home game televised.
On a gorgeous, Florida, Sunday afternoon, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had their hands full against perhaps the greatest 1-4 team in NFL history: the New Orleans Saints. The Saints have had their fair share of issues lately, with Spygate, suspensions and what most impartial observers believe to be Roger Goodell's total bumbling of his own judiciary process.
That being said, Goodell and the league made it up to them on Sunday, with a little help from Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano.
Don't get me wrong. I don't mean to stand here on my homer soapbox and say the Buccaneers were robbed had it not been for this call or that but… the Buccaneers fell victim to two calls in particular, one which led to a Saints touchdown and another that prevented a Bucs touchdown from happening. Such was the difference in the game. In a seven point contest, the number of points which the Bucs are losing most of their games this season, these things matter.
Thing I've Never Seen Before #1: In the fourth quarter of a highly competitive contest, leading 28-21, New Orleans lined up for a 51-yard field goal after the Buccaneers had stopped them defensively. Tampa's special teams lined up yet shifted their position in an effort to distract the snap. All of a sudden, whistles were blown and flags were thrown.
Unsportsmanlike conduct called on the Buccaneers, pre-snap, before the ball was even hiked. The refs penalized Tampa Bay fifteen yards, giving the Saints back the ball and the inevitable, momentous touchdown.
I've been watching football for a while now. Most unsportsmanlike penalties occur either during or after a play and are generally the result of excessive celebration or taunting which, in the NFL, has to be pretty flagrant considering what players do after touchdowns these days. According to Schiano, he used that very same defensive shift against the Redskins earlier this season and a penalty was NOT called but according to Rule 12, Section 3, Article 1i, a team is not allowed to use "acts or words designed to disconcert an offensive team at the snap." Now either the refs were doing their job a little too well or this is a rule that Schiano needs to become more familiar with. Ah, the joys of being a rookie head coach in the NFL. If no penalty is called, there are no seven points for the Saints, perhaps not even three considering the distance of the field goal attempt.
In his explanation of the rules, former head of officials and current Fox Sports analyst Mike Pereira took a shot at Schiano on live TV saying things like that might fly at Rutgers, but not in the NFL. Schiano also got panned by the national media with ESPN's Michael Wilbon calling his antics "college rah-rah stuff."
Thing I've Never Seen Before #2: At the end of the game, with only seconds remaining and the Buccaneers down by seven, Josh Freeman and the Buccaneers matriculated the ball downfield (that's football talk) and scored what appeared to be the game-tying touchdown as time expired. The only problem is Freeman's intended receiver, Mike Williams was pushed, er… had stepped out of bounds, thereby making him an ineligible receiver.
Once again, according to Pereira and the NFL rule book, since Freeman was rolling out of the pocket, it was legal for the defensive player to shove Williams out of bounds, hence no offensive pass interference call. Williams was no longer allowed to be the first person to touch the ball, which, by all logic, is exactly what a wide receiver is supposed to do on pass plays: be the first person to catch the ball. Ludicrous is not just the name of a platinum-selling rapper.
Illegal touch penalty. Whistle blown. Game over. Fans disappointed. Bucs jobbed. Schiano confounded.
Look, there were plenty of ways the Buccaneers could, and perhaps should have won that ball game. They had a 95-yard pass play to Vincent Jackson who, according to my Buccaneers fact-checker, now holds the distinguished record of having the longest play in NFL history that did not result in a touchdown after he was caught from behind at the goal line by the much swifter Malcolm Jenkins. After said play, Tampa Bay was unable to punch it in from the Saints one-yard line four consecutive times, turning the ball over on downs.
Schiano turned beet red while giving the refs a piece of his mind during the game yet was cordial in his post-game press conference, refusing to lash out at the officials yet still clearly unhappy with the calls he felt cost his team the game.
The rookie head coach from Rutgers is quickly making enemies around the league ever since the infamous Coughlin incident where he instructed his players to crash into the opposing Giants linemen as they kneeled down in victory formation with seconds left on the clock. His decisions are perceived as collegiate by some, tone-setting by others. Either way, he still only has two wins under his belt and those came to two of the worst teams of the league, Kansas City and Carolina. Unfortunately for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Cleveland Browns are not walking through that door any time soon.
Schiano and company have a short turn around. They now must face the Vikings on Thursday. They might want to consider bringing a copy of the NFL rule book with them because at this point, it doesn't look like they're going to get any help from the zebras.

Hey Chris!
This isn't the first time an NFL team has been jobbed by the officials who I believe get their marching orders from on high (The commissioner's office). Please refer to the Super Bowl where the Seahawks were jobbed by the refs when they played the Steelers. Earlier in that season Seahawks HC Mike Holmgren criticized the NFL on more than one occasion and WALLA! You lose! NOTE: 3 years later the head referee in that not so Super Bowl actually admitted mistakes had been made… This after Seahawk fans had been called everything in the book for questioning what happened… Nice huh?
The bottom line here? Don't cross swords with the NFL, it will (not might) become your worst nightmare… And there ain't one damn thing you can do about it…
The rule about shoving a receiver out of bounds is all wrong. It rewards an unfair act. It should be changed. The defense should never gain an advantage at the expense of fair play. That rule would allow a defensive player to knock a receiver out of bounds immediately upon the quarterback rolling out on a designed pass play. In that example, the primary receiver could be taken out of the play without ever having a chance to catch the pass. The rule must be changed.
If those are the rules then case closed, but I do question the logic behind them. Take the penalty at the end of the game for example. Are we going to start seeing receivers getting hammered now everytime a quarterback rolls outside the tackle box? I really don't think so, hence my doubt on the validity of the call.
The penalty on the field goal attempt is just a stupid rule, but a rule none the less. The shift was legal, but saying shift isn't? Give me a break. The quarterback can bark as loud as he wants to try to draw the defense, but a linebacker can't say move.
Sorry this ran so long, but thanks for letting me get that of my chest. Go Bucs! -
Hmmmm…who is the guy who said that he didn't understand all the whining about the replacement refs because the real ones suck as well?
That would be this guy…
Honest Ed (Hochuli) and the boys are back on the job and it seems even now we can't escape controversies within the game . Are the players even cognizant of some of these rules , at all ? It's bad enough that the coaches at times are unsure as to what's happening on the field of play much less the insight into a the referees' thinking in making or coming to a decision.
So Hall of Fame quarterback Warren Moon is now calling out those criticizing Cam Newton's play this season as being in part racists or that their comments are actually racially insensitive. Is he kidding or what ? There's no denying that the Panthers have sucked this season with their moribund record and standing in the NFC South . For Moon to surmise that because someone says Newton shows a lack of command , maturity and that his play has been erratic is racist . Well that is so asinine , that you have to question Moon's own mindset .
If Moon wants to see racism at its very worst in terms someone being critical of an athlete, then his a#s ought to take a look back at how Ali was treated when he refused to join the military as a conscientious objector. Or the events leading up and after Hank Aaron broke what was then the all-time home run record …… held by Babe Ruth . Death threats not only to Aaron , but many were directed towards his immediate family along with some vile racial epithets . It's at times like this I question the intelligence of some of today's African American athletes ! What the hell is going on with Moon ? If he is as such , he (Moon) is a mentor to Cam Newton , then surely his first priority would be to assist the player in improving his game , rather than protecting him like a mother "hen" . Last I looked, Newton is a grown a#s man , and not a baby still suckling on his mother's breasts . Better yet, Warren Moon should be answering questions why Newton has repeatedly thrown his teammates under the bus this season after everyone of the Panther's loss during their 2012 schedule.
In the midst of dropping a piece on the Florida Georgia game as well as on the firing of Ozzie Guillen. I hear Marlins' fans are about to arrange a boat trip that would send Guillen's dumb a#s to Cuba . Your thoughts ?
So Kevind Garnett believes that the Celtics in their present guise can give the Heat a run for their money . I guess his hate of the Florida franchise goes beyond despising Ray Allen and indirectly calling him a "traitor" ? LOL,LOL,LOL !!!
That opening night game between the two , should prove to be really interesting. The Heat will begin the defense of their 2012 title . I'll be attending that Heat season opener courtesy of a Miami friend whose company has a suite at the AA Arena .
Tophatal …………
So as the Giants make the World Series , their former MVP candidate Melky Cabrera is nowhere to be seen . GM Brian Sabean refuses to answer questions concerning the player's future . Oops ! It's amazing , how one minute you're on top of the world, and the next , you're seen as the scum of the earth , not only by the fans but also by some of your teammates . The Panda (Pablo Sandoval) refuses to mention Cabrera by name . Damn !
A Rod should count his a#s extremely lucky that his teammates aren't vilifying him at present . Mind you the player has stated in 2013 , he will be better than ever . In what context am I suppose to take that ? His batting avg will be above his body weight , or the fact that , he will be " laying more chicks " than a plumber laying pipe on his job ?
Tophatal …………
Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson will be sitting down with Warren Moon to see if they can recruit him , to campaign on one of their latest causes . Three of a kind ……… dumb a##es !
How about them Bucs!??
Gotta love the NFL! Who was it playing in Minnesota last night? Is this the bell weather game for these young Bucs? Do they accept what their "college" coach is telling them now? I'm thinkin' the answers are yes and yes! Now we're going to hear from west central Florida for the next 5+ years… Can they overtake the Falcons? Yes. What about Cam? Don't think so. The Saints? Their window is closing… We'll see!
BTW… How about my Giants flying in the face of "baseball wisdom"! LOVE IT!!!
1 800 A#S WHOOPING brought to you, courtesy of your friendly neighborhood Buccaneers . The Vikings are not as good , as first advertized ! Wow ! What a beat-down .
So David Stern , will retire in Feb' 2014 , thirty years to the day , since he assumed the role as commissioner of the NBA . Over the past eight years , his average annual salary has been $22.5 million . Yet his ##s was trying to force the NBPA (players' union) to make concessions , while his wages remained the same ? Forgive me, if I have no sympathy for an ingrate like Stern !
Tophatal ………………..
Chances that the World Series will now be a four game sweep of the Tigers by the Giants ? Your thoughts ?
Tophatal ………….
I'm as surprised about this series between the Giants and Tigers because of Leyland's players have been so lackluster . I mean we've had both Fielder and Cabrera who've had phenomenal seasons . Now in the series that matters the most and the duo are now, nowhere to be seen .
Let KG bitch and whine , he's a great player ,but a shi#head as a teammate and a leader ! When Ray Allen and Rondo were arguing , and the relationship was detrimental to the team , Garnett's punk as# was nowhere to be seen . Now that Ray -Ray has jumped to the Heat . A punk a#s bitch, like KG berates his former teammate .
Florida , I see , as no than a 12 point favorite against the Bulldogs in today's game .
The Pats are playing the Rams in London on Sunday , and already New England's owner Bob Kraft is proposing that an NFL franchise should be in London by the end of this decade . WTF ! Hasn't the NFL got enough problems as it is , without this asinine notion that a franchise is needed outside North America ? Not only that the NFL has never been a truly viable option outside North America . NFL Europe lost the NFL lost tens of millions of dollars , and now major European corporation will be interested in a tie in with the game at present , or at some time in the future unless there is major improvement in the global economy , which at this point , no economist can actually give an accurate prognosis on .
Tophatal ……………
Stern may well go down as one of the best sports' executive over the past three decades , but over the past five years , his decisions have in many ways cause many of the major issues that have put the NBA in such a bad situation .
His successor Adam Silver , the current Deputy Commissioner will just continue in Stern's footsteps .
Turnovers killed Florida . 'nough said !
USC Trojans ? Blink and you realize how overrated this team just happens to be . Cheer up Lane , at least you get the chance to go home and "nail" that pretty wife of yours .
Worst scene of the day, has to concern the injury to Marcus Lattimore of the South Carolina (Gamecocks) . Possibly either a broken leg or a badly torn MCL . This kid's career is now essentially over . Two serious leg injuries in the last two years for Lattimore , and now what awaits him in terms of a career in the NFL ? .
Is there such a thing as the "silly preseason" in the NBA ?
OKC trades James Harden to the Rockets in exchange for Kevin Martin and Jeremy Lamb .
The Thunder immediately get better with the versatility of Kevin Martin . In Lamb you have a future prospect who was on a NCAA championship winning team. Bear in mind also the Thunder got the better half of this deal as they also get two future first round picks (2013 &14) in the NBA Draft .
Tophatal …………..
Patriots' owner Bob Kraft is proving that although he is a multibillionaire , his asinine intellect is now comparable to Donald Trump's . Why the fu#k is he and the rest of the NFL so concerned with seeing or wanting an NFL franchise in Europe , specifically London ?
Kraft's concern should be whether or not the Patriots can hold up when the team ….. plays the Rams in London on Sunday. At the same time he should also be concerned with the family company (Kraft Foods) that bears his name .
Did (Kraft) he not learn anything from the multi-millions of dollars lost while NFL Europe , that lame assed league was existence ? The team owners appear to be bereft of any goddamn intelligence .
The NFL cannot compete successfully against soccer , in Europe, when the seasons in the UK , France , Spain , Netherlands , Germany and Italy , are in full swing . But somehow these morons (NFL hierarchy) …. feel that they need to go down this road once again . Bear in mind also that it was a rarity where any major corporations showed any interest for a commercial tie in with the league at the time . And it is liable to be the same , when it comes to any such proposed exercise , as is being envisaged by Kraft.
Jags' owner Shahid Khan recently said , that he is interested in playing at least one scheduled league game in London , each season for the next five years . That scenario I can understand , as Khan does have business interests in the UK , as well familial interests there as well .
Tophatal ………………..
The BUCS have made believers out of us. This team this season is no longer a team that you want to face, instead a team you better take seriously. Vincent Jackson was a great addition.
It would be an understatement to say this World Series has been a tremendous disappointment . You have Leyland saying his team has been playing with heart ? No they're not ! Their hearts have been ripped out by San Francisco and trampled on .
Ode and Tigers' fans " I left my heart in San Francisco "
Can you imaging the residuals Tony Bennett is now getting from this song ? LOL,LOL ,LOL !!!
Tony Bennett sings "I left my heart in San Francisco " .
Don't cry Tigers' fans , simply rejoice that you're getting your a##es kicked . 'nough said !
Great win for the Bucs , but I was never impressed with the Vikings to begin with ! Ponder hadn't really faced anyone of note , yet everyone was sucking down the Kool Aid like it was the elixir of life .
Goodell and the NFL hierarchy, are a bunch of idiots ! The NFL cannot compete with soccer during what is now the peak of its season . Never mind the logistics involved of NFL teams traveling across the Atlantic . Yet a blowhole like Robert Kraft , is still carrying on as if it is something being craved for in Europe , when at no time has there been a call for it . Losing over $125 million over the period that NFL Europe was in full swing wasn't obviously a lesson learned or heeded by those as#holes !
So Rex Ryan doesn't believe that now is a time for change ? He obviously had his eyes closed while the Jets were getting their a#s kicked by the Dolphins at MetLife Stadium .
Ryan's postgame press conference was a sight to behold . Rex remains anally retentive !And for the idiots out there still buying into Tebow . Wake up and get a goddamn clue !
The Saints are for real …………. really shi#ty from where I sit, and it couldn't be happening to a nicer bunch of as#holes ! Broncos whooped that #ss (34-14) !
Heading down to Miami for opening night in the NBA . Celtics vs Heat , and I'll be there, in a suite courtesy , of a friend who's a Heat season ticket holder . Also it will give me a chance , to get in touch with some old friends and family over the next couple of days .
Tophatal ………..

Video Clip
Richard Lima is one of the models out there who immediately commands my attention whenever I run across him. So when I saw these photos on the Major Model Management blog I fired up my search engine of choice and satisfied my need for a Richard Lima fix.
Whether it be Cartier, Versace, Ralph Lauren, or Playgirl (yeah, you heard me) -- Richard can do no wrong in my eyes. Please consider me an official fan. (Suggested fan club name for fellow gays who are also enamored? Lima queens.)
The time has come... Broadway Bares is among us once again! Daniel Robinson has been tapped to direct the Broadway Bares documentary celebrating the event's 20 years.
In addition to making a donation for your favorite Broadway Bares stripper, they are seeking some donations to help cover the costs of making the documentary. You can donate at http://www.broadwaybaresdocumentary.com.
Broadway Bares is one of the sexiest, wildest nights of the theatre year. But it's also a fundraising powerhouse for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS - having raised over six million dollars since its first performance in 1991. The brainchild of choreographer/director Jerry Mitchell--one of the creative forces behind Hairspray, The Full Monty, and Legally Blonde--Broadway Bares is an amazing humanitarian and financial achievement whose audience and influence grow every year. It represents the hard work (and harder bodies) of hundreds of working professionals, who volunteer their time and talents to make this show a success.
Special Bonus after the jump... a video of GLEE's Matthew Morrison shaking his stuff at a past Broadway Bares event!

P.S. Congratulations go out to Jane Lynch, who married her partner Lara Embry over the weekend. :)
My apologies to our international readership, but this clip was too good not to share - even though it will only play for visitors from the United States.
Olivia Newton-John joined the cast of GLEE this week for a new version of her iconic song Physical with Jane Lynch (who plays evil cheer squad coach Sue Sylvester in the show.)
UPDATE: Heroic reader Mike was nice enough to share the YouTube link of the video with us, for all of our international guests! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thlogramihg -- thanks, Mike!
The song itself is also available for purchase on iTunes.
Happy Earth Day! The featured model from Support Nature Project this week is Jake Kelly.
Jake has been a dedicated long distance runner most of his life. When he's not sprinting down the trails he loves to embrace his artistic sprit. He enjoys acrylic painting and his true passion is the theatre. He has recently performed in local productions of A Chorus Line, Cats, and The Rocky Horror Show.
Jake is excited to participate in the Support Nature Project. To do his part to assist preservation of the environment he drives a Civic Hybrid, uses fluorescent light bulbs, and purchases organic and locally grown foods whenever possible.

So, here's "the dish" on Dirk. Dirk Bogarde, with his huge sad eyes and dark brooding good looks, was the leading matinee idol of the 1950's in England and had been for ten years by the time he made Victim in 1961. Basically considered the Robert Pattinson of his day, he was chased through the streets and haunted and hunted by paparazzi wherever he went for his romantic roles in British romances and his appearances in the hugely popular Carry On series.
I'd totally forgotten about this video - Toni Braxton and her friends voting on the guys they call over to her apartment using oversized playing cards... and some of them are definitely 10s! I think I need to move into this flat...
Fun fact: Toni ends up choosing Bryce Wilson in the end -- who was one of the writer/producers of the song!
Week five of Support Nature Project - whose featured model this week is Lance Winters.
We're hitting the road! I'm off to Dallas this evening with our 2010 Model Search winner, Jesse Blum! We'll be meeting up with Alan Rust from On Display Men and Jay Fuertez to shoot Jesse for the Support Nature Project -- watch our Twitter and Facebook pages for mobile updates over the weekend!
Lance is a relatively new model with stunning potential. Modeling is not his ultimate goal, however. "I want to finish school with a Doctorate and become a psychologist for teens. My big dream is to be an actor, though. Overall, I just want to be the best person I can be." This model stays in shape doing both cardio and weight training. He also plays the occasional game of golf, basketball or football. If Lance doesn't get chosen for a particular job, he doesn't sweat the small stuff; rejection simply doesn't faze him. "Rejection doesn't bother me. I don't care what people think." Admittedly, Lance hardly gets any time to relax, and when he does, he prefers to spend it sleeping. However, he and his friends enjoy some downtime playing video games.
Since Lance enjoys being outdoors playing various sports he strongly believes in a better environment. He is glad to be part of this project to raise awareness about a better environment for us and our children. Of course, he recycles as we all should and he is going to look at other ways he can participate in environmental projects this year.

Photographer Bradford Rogne (previous coverage) takes us behind-the-scenes of his calandar shoot with Jessie Pavelka (previous coverage) for the first 2011 calendar we've got on our radar!
Bradford had this to say about the shoot:
Jessie and I had been talking about shooting a calendar for a while now, so when the perfect opportunity presented itself, we jumped right in! 90% of the calendar was shot in one day, between my studio in downtown LA and a super slick house in the Hollywood Hills. It was a race for time, but we managed to get everything shot before sunset. More images that you won't see in the calendar coming soon!
Thanks, Bradford... we can't wait!

Imagine that you're a blogger -- you've woken up and taken a shower, and set out to do your 5:00AM rounds on the internet to see what happened overnight. This was the first thing you came across.
I've seen bits and pieces of this video from Tyler Shields trickle out on his YouTube channel... but wow what a difference when they are all tied together into this frantic explosion from his head.
I feel like either this is going to be an awesome day, or that America's favorite mouse is going to mug me in the parking garage.
Check out the first of (hopefully) many backstage videos from Dolce&Gabbana - it is a shoot for their Mens Spring/Summer 2010 campaign!
Mark Salling showed us on a recent episode of Glee that he can hold his own amongst the cast, with an inspired version of Sweet Caroline on a recent episode (see the video after the jump!).
What you might not have known is that he covertly released his debut solo album under the pseudonym Jericho. Mark's official site has sample tracks and you can find the album, Smoke Signals available for purchase on his website (along with a signed photo!) or available on iTunes.

Not every dad on television is the perfect father figure. Here are just a few of some of TV's worst dads.
Frank Gallagher has six kids, but hasn't parented a day in his life. This "Shameless" dad spends more time at the bar and on the streets than with his children.
"Mad Men's" Don Draper may like to hear himself talk to the ladies, but he promptly shuts the door on his son Bobby after saying just a few cold words.
"Married With Children's" infamous dad, Al Bundy, is a little too honest with his son Bud when they're looking at his son's baby book.
"Frankly, you were one ugly baby," he told Bud with a smile.
Editor's Note: Content may be inappropriate for some.
It's safe to say that Homer sometimes loves his donuts more than he loves his children, since he often tries to choke Bart.
"I'll mace you good!"... Enough said.
"Family Guy's" morally challenged Peter Griffin rarely exhibits great parenting skills -- even when his daughter Meg threatens to take her own life.
Editor's Note: Content may be inappropriate for children.
"Breaking Bad" is supposed to be about a father who enters the drug trade to provide for his family. But once Walter White gets deep into the lucrative business, he becomes more corrupt and the show loses its father figure.
Frank Costanza's reaction to his son's death on "Seinfeld" is a testament to his questionable parenting throughout George's life. When the Yankees owner delivers the news of George's death, Frank talks sports and completely neglects the news of his son's passing.
Who matters more? The CIA or Nicholas Brody's daughter, Dana? Throughout the "Homeland" series, Body's commitment to his family is questioned as much as his commitment to his country.
Always in disagreement with his family, Archie may technically be a good father, but is far from a welcoming father-in-law.
Telling your son that you wanted to kill him on the day he was born makes this "Game of Thrones" father a less-than-ideal dad.

Not sure if this qualifies as a code magenta or puce, but Inauguration Security Enlists Snipers as four million people are expected in D.C. for the Jan 20, 2009 Inauguration of Barack Obama.
Even this blogging gnat in faraway Georgia knows an entire family driving up to Washington for the event and fortunately for them, a family member lives nearby so accomodations are no problem (good thing!)
And what a crush it would be if a sharpshooter had to pop someone, wouldn't it?
Think I'll soon be taking another gander at the Inauguration 2009 chart with closer attention to safety concerns now that the Oath's festivities are drawing near and snipers are mapping out their best locations.
Here's the 2009 Inauguration chart with midpoint pictures in English (and a few are troubling but midpoint pics are all-none-or-some possibilities, not certainties), and other comments - but remember I wrote it months ago when it was difficult to believe that Bush and Cheney would ever be pried from the White House!
Blogger Concerns:
Here's a heads-up to the 3 or 4 readers of this blog who kindly leave me comments: I love comments! But Blogger's comments moderation set-up doesn't tell me which posts comments are left for as I okay them, so if I don't reply to you it's probably because I'm having to search for your remarks after I publish them.
Comments on recent posts are easy to discover. But if you comment on an older post, I may never figure it out.
So if you think of it when commenting, it would expedite matters if you mention the post's title or subject in your remarks to ID its location! It's just crazy, I know, but there it is. My duh, no doubt.
Thanks a bunch, Jude

This would be because v.in.dxf and v.in.dxf3d don't create a category file (dig_cats); they store all the categories in the attributes file (dig_att). If the categories are all positive integer numbers (e.g. contours above sea level) this is probably all right and nothing much to worry about then. And if they are contours then it will even be useful when you are running v.patch as the contours in the different files with the same value will have the same attribute number and they will all patch together cleanly. But if you have positive floating point numbers v.support will truncate them to integers, and it will delete any other categories (e.g. zero or text values). It does this without warning. With help from John Gillette I had prepared a patch for v.in.dxf and v.in.dxf3d so it would put a unique number in the dig_att file for each category and write the category to the dig_cats file. But I didn't apply it to GRASS as I wasn't sure this was the best way of solving the problem. For example, it would mess up the output of v.patch as the same attribute number might correspond to different categories in the different input files. In short, if your DXF files contain contours and there were no 0 or negative values, it should be OK. Paul

California was no golden statefor the Mikulans when we moved here in 1958. We weren't too bad off — just another family trying to dig itself out of a hole. Life had its routines: We ate spaghetti on Thanksgiving, my mother washed the laundry in our bathtub, and my father pawned his watch before every payday to buy gas. Kids in our neighborhood went to school with ketchup sandwiches, and their parents didn't talk about reinventing themselves. What I remember of this California were cold linoleum floors, the smell of leaking gas and my parents' complaints that the Salvation Army's furniture was too expensive to buy. I loved every minute of it — we were like the woodcutter's family living in the middle of a Grimm fairy tale.
Twenty years later, I moved to L.A. from San Francisco. I expected a city of pampered phonies who conversed in euphemisms and non sequiturs, but found the same kind of hard, moneyless California I'd grown up in. People here fished for their dinners from the Santa Monica Pier and, just across Ocean Boulevard, men rolled across the Wind and Sea's bar when they brawled — just like the movies. And there was that great leveler of class and race, Dodger Stadium, which filled with people from every neighborhood and suburb, piling everyone into the same existential boat for three hours.
That was then. Today, Dodger Stadium's breezeways less resemble Ellis Island than a shopping mall — one that charges $10 for parking. Immigrants still fish off Santa Monica Pier, but the Wind and Sea's long gone, replaced by a tropical "lounge" that advertises "lush, comfortable atmosphere . . . [and] an innovative 'Island Tapas' menu offering smaller-sized epicurean delights designed for patrons looking for lighter fare and perfect sharing."
The lush comfortable life, with its epicurean delights, was what I had dreaded finding in L.A. in 1979. Now it's everywhere. I'm not one to revel in the Bukowskian grime of any city's past, but L.A. has, hideously, become the politest, most politically "sensitive" and money-oriented communitas in the state. The people I first met in L.A. were noteworthy for their simplicity, candor and thrift. Today's Angeleno can be identified by the impulse toward dissembling, exclusivity and $750 Kristal-bottle service.
Just look to the proliferation of "VIP" lounges at clubs and in supposedly populist venues. (Hello, Sunset Junction!) Nevertheless, it's in the city's vanishing public spaces that you still come across traces of hardboiled California.
Take Hollywood Park, 240 acres of gambling — I mean, gaming — paradise, located in the heart of Inglewood; its soothing landscape with its duck ponds and emerald-green infield may be plowed over for condos and chain stores in a few years. (Pay a visit soon, preferably during track season, which resumes November 1.)
Hollywood Park is everything squeaky clean, smoke-free Dodger Stadium is not. Parking is free, as are the highly informative programs with their no-nonsense judgments of men and horses. General admission is a light $7, and not only is smoking permitted in wide areas but cigarettes are freely sold at the track's refreshment stands and bars. Yes, bars — where real beer (not Chavez Ravine's $8 cups of watery suds) can be had for $5.50 to $6.50 a pint, along with cocktails.
More interesting than the races are the people standing at the monitors, transfixed by other races in other cities, studying the Daily Racing Form at rows of study hall tables or just getting tanked on Bass ale at the Whittingham's Pub & Deli. The conversations could be written by David Mamet.
Man: John was a good guy. He lost his finger! He lost it and became a seaman. But he had the finger put in a vial around his neck. He became a seaman and got thrown in jail in Venezuela. That's how he got out — he said, "You can keep my finger if you let me out." He gave them the finger, and they let him out.
Friend: He was Airborne.
Man: Yes, he was Airborne. 82nd. You know, my grandfather had a butcher shop on Pico Boulevard.
Friend: Right. Who was that stocky butcher — Kilpatrick! It was in the late '40s, early '50s. Drove a '49 Cadillac.
Man: We used to have duck on Thanksgiving. He loved duck hunting.
Like America itself, L.A. in the late 1970s was still run on nearly every level by men who, like the two guys talking at the track, had grown up during the Great Depression and fought in World War II. Besides dominating the county's city halls and police departments, they owned garages, junkyards and bars, and presided over them with a bitterness mellowed, somewhat, by a keep-the-pack generosity. L.A. also still had plenty of people who punched timecards living right in the middle of town or even on the Westside. Today, though, that hardboiled animus has all but disappeared, and those time-card punchers are practically being pushed into Nevada by greedy landlords and real estate speculators. Little by little, the coveted hills and landscaped flats are being taken over by hyena-faced men and women who believe they are entitled to everything from residents-only parking to the removal of services and centers that attract people who could not possibly afford to be their neighbors.

Tyga - The Nausea
Artist: Tyga
Producer: Pete Rahk
Album: Black Thoughts Mixtape
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 44 total votes )
After one listen to The Nausea I could only think one thing: what? The last I heard from Tyga he was mixing coconut beverages at a pool party with some beautiful females, but apparently I had the man all wrong. The Nausea is a leak off his upcoming Black Thoughts mixtape that's so dark it could have been on Relapse, complete with repeated vomiting, sinister production from Pete Rahk and a skit from some random British guy. But the real news here is Tyga, who absolutely kills the track with a flow that's as venomous as it is dope (although he apparently hasn't heard that Monte Kiffin left the Bucs for Tennessee). Man, if The Nausea is any indication, Tyga might just have grown into a lyrical force to be reckoned with. This is grown man music. His Black Thoughts mixtape by DJ Ill Will & DJ Rockstar is scheduled to drop soon. Keep it locked to DJBooth.net for all the latest.

Hull City manager Phil Brown has publicly shot down any rumor of Irish midfielder Stephen Hunt leaving ht club in the January transfer window.
The winger, who has had a very solid first season with the Tigers, netting five times in 20 starts, has caught the eye of some Premier League clubs, but Brown says the curly haired firebrand is going nowhere
"Stephen, as far as I'm concerned and as far as the chairman is concerned, will be going nowhere," Brown is quoted in the Hull Daily Mail. "I have had the lad in yesterday morning and asked him where he wants to be.
"His heart is firmly at Hull City and I would like to keep it that way in the January transfer window and for the rest of the season."
That said, if Hull don't avoid the drop at the end of the season, Hunt is doing his chances of staying in the Premier League ,come what may, no damage at all.

Fnatic wont get invited for TI 2 i guess, they are just not on par yet and i dont think this will change till TI2.
More invites than 16 Teams, pretty unlikely considering valve spent like 3 million for travel costs, visas etc for TI1.
And the NA scene will prolly only get 2-3 invites max. Chinese alone will get like 3-4 invites, SEA another 2-4 prolly, CIS alone will get 3+ and like 2-3 for EU teams.
So, seems CMs frost nova radius was buffed to 1k. She just got a ton better.
Just so you know Juspion, you're not suppose to be able to get forced/vacuumed/w.e'd up onto a cliff that you can't get off of. It suppose to put you down at the closest free area. Right now that's a glitch in Dota 2, as is mentioned in the bugs forums. It's not been "denied by dotards", it's just a bug. Get over yourself.
didnt dota 1 have an unstuck feature that took like a minute to kick in? i havent gotten "truly" stuck yet i on dota 2 anyways. most of the time its me just being careless with blinks and treewalking skills like spectre.
Anyone else sick to death of seeing Pudge in pretty much every game?
Can be done with Dark Seer and Push Stick too.
Don't see pudge that often and if someone first picks on the other side with pudge, I just call mid and pick Viper. Pudge then has a nice time sitting at 100HP by his tower.

list of ex hon players with no DotA background that are now relevant in competitive dota 2:
Alright, after playing quite a bit of Dota I have a review. HoN Ports VS Original Dota Heroes! I will be basing this primarily on flavor and quality of the hero character, since most dota ports in hon have been substantially upgraded in many ways - I will only occasionally take actual power of the hero into account on occasion.
First up...
Earth Shaker > Behemoth
Behemoth is just a giant land whale with no character depth and nothing interesting to say. To add insult to injury, HoN nerfed Behemoth to be worse than his DoTa counterpart. Earthshaker didn't have much to do in order to trounce Behemoth but he went ahead and crushed him anyway. Earthshaker is awesome and has the coolest voice and is the best. Not even close here.
Sven < Hammerstorm
Neither Sven nor Hammerstorm are really much to be excited about, but Hammerstorm's stun is a lot better than Sven's and his character is a little more fun.
Beast Master< Tundra
I like the flavor of Tundra just a bit more than Beast Master, and cold shoulder is a lot more fun than a move/attack speed passive. Tundra also shouts "FREEZE" when he ults and it looks a whole bunch cooler.
Clockwerk < Pharaoh
Try as he might, Clockwerk is just not Pharaoh. Pharaoh is cooler and better than Clockwerk in all ways. Plus, Pharaoh has his own car dealership called Pharaoh's Used Car Emporium and he also hungers for THE SWEET TASTE OF SOULS! Yeah, I think it really comes down to how much better Pharaoh's abilities are, especially the ult and mummies. I think his nukes might cost more mana than Clockwerk's, for what that's worth.
Axe > Legionnaire
Lack of beard really did Lego in here. This one was kinda hard to judge since Axe REALLY sucks compared to Lego, but character-wise they're pretty much the same.
Pudge < Devourer
Another close one, but Pudge really only has giant boobs and Elvis hair going for him. Devourer's abilities are all strictly better than Pudge's, especially his rot, holy ****. Other than that, they really are just the same. I think I like Devourer more because his rot damage is updated every frame instead of every second or so, and that makes rot a lot cooler feeling.
Slardar < Pestilence
First of all, Pestilence is a bug. Second of all, Slardar is a fish. They're both really cool though and Slardar actually edges out in terms of power in a lot of ways. But gotta give it to the swarm - Pestilence is just too cool. And also a Ladybug and Ladybugs are the best.
Tiny = Pebbles
These heroes have really comparable power - I think Pebbles edges out in terms of nuking power, it just feels better in HoN, but Tiny has a really cool Scepter upgrade. Both of the characters are really awesome, but Tiny might just be better. Willing to call it a tie though.
Kunkka > Gladiator
Failboat actually got Kunkka the win here. Gladiator is probably stronger in HoN, but not enough so to matter. Adventurer Gladiator was fun though.
Sand King < Magmus
Not even close. Crix just sounds like a sandy bag of ****. Magmus is so bubbly and burbly. And he knows when to take a knee. He also generously will give steam baths to his teammates. And Magmus also takes care of business.
Tidehunter > Kraken
They really are so different that this comparison is not even relevant. But Tidehunter is too great. He's just the hungriest little ****er.
Leoric/Skeleton King > Amun Ra
Another sketchy comparison, but I had to put Ra in here somewhere so I could talk about how Ra is just the shittiest. **** that guy. Seriously, I hate him so much. I only decide that he is allowed to exist but Cleopatra Pharaoh likes him so much and thinks he's dreamy. Also, the fling between Phoenix Ra and Zephyr is priceless. That Zephyr bro really knows how to party, I really can't blame her for falling for that party bird.
Omniknight < Jeraziah
Really sucks that Omniknight isn't Arthas anymore. Lost a lot of points from that. But Jereziah sucks so hard that I can't give him any points. No mercy for the douchebag.
Nature's Prophet > Keeper of the Forest ( > Rooftrellen)
I don't even think this needs to be explained much. But **** Keeper and **** Rooftrellen even more for being the worst hero to lane with ever.
Lifestealer > Predator
Predator is an annoying grunting mess. Naix is a disgusting, terrifying monster. They both suck. But Lifestealer has this weird infest ability and I guess it's kinda cool.
Spirit Breaker < Rampage
Spirit Breaker really has nothing going for him. He has a random bash that makes people build Mask of Madness on him and he just sucks. Rampage reworked is so much better. Plus, he rides a rhino. And that rhino's name is Horatio. Pretty much the coolest. Also, Rainbow Rampage.
Lycan >
Drow Ranger < Arachna
Arachna is a bug, has a cool ult, and doesn't make weird orgasm noises when she takes damage.
Vengeful Spirit < Andromeda
God, I miss Andromeda so much. Vengeful Spirit is just... not. Ugh. Her stun scales to the full stun duration at level 4, Andromeda's doesn't. If you include Mandromeda, there is no contest.
Antimage < Magebane
Besides Magebane just being better (I don't care about magic resistance passive, Magebane's blink is so much better), they are really exactly the same. Antimage runs really dumb when he gets haste, so that lost him some points. Also, he's an *******.
Spectre = Sand Wraith
And they are both equal to zero.
Faceless Void > Chronos
Void is better than Chronos in terms of power, which is weird, since Chronos is the HoN port. Both of them are pretty garbage characters, but at least Faceless Void has better puns.
Shadow Fiend > Soul Stealer
Soul Stealer is a lot better than Shadow Fiend in power. And Shadow Fiend looks really dumb when he walks. But they are really just too similar. I gave it to SF because his ult looks a lot cooler.
Razor > Corrupted Disciple
Razor is cooler.
Mirana > Valkyrie
I like Valkyrie better, but they're really just the same hero. That gives the tie breaker to Dota for being the original.
Venomancer < Slither
Slither is just so FEEEEINDISH and SINISTER! He's just great.
Blood Seeker > Blood Hunter
Blood Hunter is a STUPID ****ING BAT. Also, I really like the interaction between Blood Seeker's ult and blinks and the like. Especially like the force staff interaction.
Sniper < Flint Beastwood
Flint is better and not a stupid annoying little ****. Also, if I see these heroes get Mask of Madness and a Shadow Blade in one more game, I will rip out my eyes.
Riki < Nighthound
As much as I hate goat-things, Night Hound is the most annoying hero in the entire game of HoN (in terms of character). I just can't stand him. So.. gross. Also, getting invis rune on Riki is awesome.
Juggernaut = Swiftblade
Hate both of these. Neither of them get points.
Lone Druid < Wild Soul
Wild Soul had the decency to name his bear.
Puck < Bubbles
Puck is too cute. Like, actually too much that it's annoying. Puck has a better hide ability, but Bubble's is cuter. And the hero concept just makes so much more sense as a turtle instead of a weird fairy thing.
Storm Spirit > Dr Repulsor\
Storm Spirit is so awesome.. first he's over here then he's over there. That tricky bastard. Dr gets points for being Bombardier's bother, I guess. Bomba was pretty cool.
Chen > Ophelia
They're pretty much the same in terms of sucking (character-wise). So, tie-breaker gives credit to the original.
Enigma < Tempest
Neither of these characters are really that great, but Enigma's abilities all look terrible. I really like the way Tempest's abilities look, though, especially meteor.
Dazzle > Demented Shaman
This one was SOOO close. I love Demented Shaman so much, and he's also just a lot better than Dazzle - Dazzle just isn't good. But, Dazzle is one crazy mother ****er. DAZZLEEEEEE!
Lich > Plague Rider
Once I found out that Plague Rider's dragon doesn't have a name, he lost a lot of points. Lich is actually better than Plague Rider, too. It's ridiculous. These heroes are retarded good. But Lich sacrifices creeps for the greater good... his.
Leshrac < Torturer
Torturer is one of my favorite hero concepts and is so much better than Leshrac (super stupidly broken, actually). Not only that, but Leshrac is another douchebag undead goat thing. Hate goats.
Zeus > Thunder-bringer
Thunderbringer has nothing going for him. Zeus is at least a little funny. Both of them suck pretty bad.
Lina < Pyromancer
God. Lina is just soooo garbage. I loved Pyromancer so much.. why can't Lina just be Pyromancer? Pyromancer's passive gives him a stacking dot AND reduces his casting time on his skills. But most of all, he tells his enemies to CATCH THIS right in the face.
Shadow Shaman < Pollywog Priest
I think this really highlights how much better HoN heroes are than Dota ones, especially with concerns to ability graphics and animations. Pollywog is just so *****in, and he's always high off his ass. His voodoo wards are really cool and using his tongue to stun is a lot more awesome than stupid SS. SS's abilities are just ugly looking.
Necrolyte < Soul Reaper
They both really suck. But Soul Raper knows how lucky you are that he lets you order him around. That's pretty cool.
Witch Doctor > Voodoo Jester
Wait for it... Waaaaait for iiiiit. Yeah, Witch Doctor wins.
Crystal Maiden < Glacius
Let's break it down. Glacius is a black guy, riding a frozen skateboard waving around a frozen chicken wing. Crystal Maiden is an annoying girl who doesn't float around on anything. Yeah, not even a contest.
Lion < Witch Slayer
Witch Slayer likes traveling together, has a shot gun, stuns people with a ****ing graveyard and isn't an ugly piece of ****. Seriously, finger of death? Lame.
Queen of Pain < Wretched Hag
Queen of Pain is cool, I like her, and her slow is better. But Wretched Hag is just a little bit better. Her hatred of bright places pushed her over.
Silencer < Vindicator
Come at me.
Warloc < Hellbringer
Again. Name your pets. Don't be an *******. Warloc has so much going for him too.. if only he named his demon. Also, pity points to Hell Bringer for not having legs. Poor guy.
Death Prophet > Defiler
Yeah, don't really know here. I just don't like Defiler that much.
Bane < Succubus
Bane's ult just looks so stupid. I can't take it.
Yeah. So. Overall score.
Dota: 20
Hon: 27
I kinda miss HoN.
The second Valve releases Aussie servers im out of here. S2 heroes are S2 heroes. S2 balance is S2 balance
I don't understand - if you think the HoN hero designs generally better, why don't you play it? I still haven't seen your reasons for playing DotA over HoN.I kinda miss hon

TUCSON - It's not easy, but University of Arizona Junior Ian Marble is learning Arabic, one page at a time.
"I love it. It's a lot of fun," Marble says.
The Middle Eastern and North African studies major is one of 13 ROTC students learning the language through with "PROJECT GO", a Department of Defense Initiative. "The goal is to help these future officers be better prepared in terms of language and culture for the so-called critical languages," says UA Arabic Professor Sonia Shiri.
For a couple hours each week, Marble receives one-on-one tutoring. "It just really has brought me into a different world essentially," Marble says.
He learns to read and write in Arabic. He also learns about the culture. "Greet appropriately, be polite, be capable of communicating all the basic needs," Shiri says.
"I think the biggest thing it will help me with is just making that connection with people wherever I'm going," Marble says.
Right now "PROJECT GO" is in 25 schools nationwide. In some schools, students learn other languages, like Chinese or Russian.
It's not quite the physical training our military members are used to, but Marble, who hopes to one day be an Air Force pilot, says it's just as important. "I want to be the best officer I can be, the best worker I can be, and this is just another step in the process," Marble says.
The DOD issued the University of Arizona a three-year grant for "PROJECT GO". It helps pay for tutor salaries and student scholarships.

(BPT) - For all of the discussion around the importance of credit scores, it's hard to know what's true, what's fiction, and what lies in between.
While there are misperceptions and misunderstandings still lingering in the marketplace, the good news is that overall knowledge about credit scoring is improving. A recent survey by the Consumer Federation of America (CFA) and VantageScore Solutions, one of the two primary companies that generate credit scores, shows that consumers know they have more than one credit score, have a better understanding about the factors that affect credit scores, and have increased familiarity with how different kinds of companies and entities use credit scores.
Consumers also have a good handle on some recent additions to federal laws regarding when lenders are required to inform borrowers about their credit scores.
"Increases in consumer knowledge probably reflect, in part, the increased public attention given to credit scores because of the new protections," says Stephen Brobeck, executive director, CFA. "The improvements may also be related to increased efforts of financial educators, including our own educational website, creditscorequiz.org, to inform consumers about credit reports and scores."
However, despite the positive developments, there's room for improvement according to the CFA-VantageScore Solutions survey.
Myth: Low credit scores don't greatly affect how much you pay over the life of the loan.
Fact: Low scores can be costly. Only 29 percent of survey respondents were aware that on a $20,000, 60-month auto loan, a borrower with a low credit score is likely to pay at least $5,000 more than a borrower with a high credit score.
Myth: Age and marital status are factors used in calculating credit scores.
Fact: Over 50 percent of survey respondents incorrectly believed their age and marital status were factors used to calculate their credit scores. The only factors credit score models use are related to your use of credit, especially whether you make payments on time.
Myth: Multiple inquiries when applying for a consumer or mortgage loan will have a negative effect on your score.
Fact: If multiple inquiries occur during a one-to two-week window, generally they will not lower your credit scores. Only 9 percent of respondents were aware of this, and 34 percent incorrectly believed that each inquiry will lower your score.
Understanding credit scoring can be complex, but it's in your best interest to get the facts straight. With a clear view of what's true and false, it's easier to set the course for a sound financial future. For more information about the myths and facts of credit, visit www.creditscorequiz.org, www.vantagescore.com and www.consumerfed.org.

Scott, Seabrook
On a recent trip to Melbourne I jumped at the chance of paying a visit to a real-life circus performer who's second act entailed being, without a doubt, a brilliant stay-at-home-dad. Scott's ease at being in the limelight, coupled with his travels down paths less travelled, stands him in great stead for his new-found role. Jules: Can you tell me a little bit about your situation and how you're involved with Olly; how often you look after him and how... » more
Gavin, Blue Mountains
Gavin's mild manner is a perfect complement to his being a stay-at-home dad. This, together with his quiet and considered responses he gave during our discussion, made me reflect on my own family relationships. As you'll no doubt see he appears more than well prepared for the challenges faced by a parent as his past work also included time as a UN logistics coordinator in Afghanistan. Jules: I like to start off by asking dads whether they associate with the... » more
Stephen, Bondi
Stephen, whom I was introduced to through Bruce, seemed to enjoy the opportunity to discuss his time as a dad whilst we sat in the park beside his house, as the home renovations could wait awhile longer. A teacher and more recently the co-author of Man With A Pram: The Bloke's Guide shared his views, in retrospect, of his time spent with his daughter. Jules: Could you perhaps start by telling me the motivation to write your book, Man with... » more
Bryan, Annandale
As an old friend with whom I'd spent time both in watering holes and stuck on sides of cliffs whilst rock climbing, Bryan was a must to discuss parenting with. One for generally taking things in his stride—and not raising a sweat in the process—Bryan's style of parenting was sure to be a breath of fresh air in this time of pushing one's child to be the best. Since discussing his approach to being a new stay-at-home dad, his beautiful... » more
Bruce, Newtown
My first interview for this series couldn't have been with a nicer guy. Bruce, a father of two vivacious girls, immediately made me welcome in their narrow Newtown terrace. As well as introducing me to his daughters, Ayesha and Rhani, I was immediately brought into the fold, meeting his partner, Cath, and some of their other friends and family members. The ease and candidness with which Bruce spoke of his experiences of being father of two, a business owner and... » more
On the road
Now that the web site is nearly complete I'm busy meeting, talking to and photographing other stay-at-home dads. It's been an encouraging start with quite a number of dads being very welcoming towards the idea of this documentary project along with individual encouragements from both other parents and even some counsellors I've met along the way. Once I started making enquiries with friends and family as to whether they know of any stay-at-home dads there turned out to be a... » more
