The Kings have some of the most vocal fans in the NBA and with a young team you know they are eager for some wins. Playing in the Western Conference's Pacific Division is no easy feat, but the Kings are ready for the 2013 NBA season. Tyreke Evans is definitely going to get his touches this season, but he's not the only King on the roster. Keith Smart also has DeMarcus Cousins and Isaiah Thomas ready to take it to the hoop. With a young team during a season that will reward youth and depth, the Kings are going to be a handful for every team that they play. And if that team is Sacramento rival the Los Angeles Lakers then that goes double! These teams sure have some epic battles, and Kings vs Los Angeles Lakers tickets are always hot sellers. Being at a Sacramento Kings basketball game is good enough, but whey they are playing the LA Lakers its extra special. Another team that kicks up demand for Sacramento Kings basketball tickets are the Clippers.

With a very young and talented team fans are getting Sacramento Kings tickets fast for what could be an thrilling season. Center Jason Thompson is only going to get better at protecting the inside. Thompson is a very talented player so its a great time to buy Sacramento Kings tickets and watch this team turn it around. The team is still young, however this year should see some improvements in areas where the Sacramento Kings were truly lacking last year. They'll see some good teams,and you know that the Miami Heat are going to be a big draw. The turnover rate has to go down if the Kings are going to be competitive, and the team will also have to learn to play together. Last year's team was one of the leagues lowest in assists, so look for improvement in that area as well. The defense is one of the big question marks, and will play a deciding factor in whether Sacramento Kings ticket holders see a win or loss. It could be an exiting time for the Kings, so be sure to get your Sacramento basketball tickets ASAP. No matter what NBA team you like, TL is your source for the best NBA tickets you will find.

Stock Car Racing
#32 Aric Almirola
Car | #32 Ford Mustang |
Sponsor | Smithfield |
Crew Chief | Todd Parrott |
Hometown | Tampa, FL |
Birthday | NOV 15, 2013 |
Aric Almirola has been viewed as a rising star among the current crop of young drivers in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, but he's had trouble landing a full-time ride since arriving on the scene in 2007. That all changed last year when he was handed the keys to the famed No. 43 Richard Petty Motorsports Ford and ran the full 36-race schedule for the first time. Almirola experienced the usual ups and downs, but he showed flashes of consistent speed, particularly in qualifying as he registered the first pole of his career at one of the marquee races of the season -- the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
As he enters the 2013 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season, Almirola is filled with confidence since it will be his first full campaign with crew chief Todd Parrott. The two were paired for the final 10 races of 2012 and showed immediate results as Almirola qualified in the top 5 four times, top-10 on five occasions, and tied his career-best finish when he ran fourth at Martinsville in October. He was poised to beat that in the season-ending Ford 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway, but while running third on the white flag lap he ran out of gas and coasted to a seventh-place finish.
* Almirola made his NASCAR Sprint Cup Series debut in a fourth car for Joe Gibbs Racing at Las Vegas and finished 41st after getting involved in an accident.
* He is credited with one NASCAR Nationwide Series victory (2007) while running with JGR and two in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series for Billy Ballew (2010).
* Almirola grew up in Tampa, but currently resides in North Carolina, along with his wife, Janice, and their new baby son, Alex, who was born in September 2012.
This is the second tour of duty for Almirola with Richard Petty Motorsports. After Kasey Kahne moved to Red Bull Racing near the end of the 2010 season, Almirola replaced him and ran the final five races of the season in the No. 9 Budweiser Ford Fusion. He ended that year on a high note with a career-best fourth-place run at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

OK, so last week's icy tempest was a no-show, but the people who are paid to guess about this sort of thing are promising terrible things tonight. Be safe, read these:
From The Washington Post: Washington: A world apart
From The New York Times: Invisible Child: Dasani's Homeless Life
From Wired: An obituary for the letter "E"
Turns out we already have many of these laughingstocks, as Cornfield points out:
The public officials' claims that unionization hinders Tennessee's economic development are at best unmindful of the positive economic impact of these corporations. Many large, private Tennessee employers have union collective bargaining agreements with some or all of their employees, including Alstom Power, AT&T, Bridgestone, Carlex, CSX, FedEx, Ford Motor Co., General Motors, Kroger, Lear, Medical Action Industries, Norfolk Southern, St. Francis Hospital, Sharp Manufacturing, Southwest Airlines, Tyson Foods, UPS and Voith.
To Cornfield's argument about "the positive economic impact of unionized corporations on the prestige and growth of the sate economy," I would add that we're talking about basic labor rights here. Haslam, Corker, and their fellow anti-union travelers seem to need reminding that collective bargaining is a fundamental human right codified in Article 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (which of course the U.S. helped draft and voted to adopt over half a century ago):
Everyone has the right to form and to join trade unions for the protection of his interests.
Elected officials who are ignorant of basic rights are far more likely to make the state a "laughingstock" than the exercise of those rights by working Tennesseans.
A version of this post also appears at BruceBarry.net.
Two hospitals were dedicated to treating sexual infections in Nashville: Hospital 11, for soldiers, and Hospital 15, also known as the Pest House, for prostitutes. The head surgeon, Robert Fletcher, claimed that after the first six months of regulation, when 92 women had been diagnosed with S.T.D.'s, only 13 of the nearly 31,000 soldiers admitted to Hospital 15 had contracted their infections in Nashville. Dr. William Chambers, charged with medical inspections of the women, noted that regulations led to improvements in hygiene in addition to the decrease in new infections.Chambers's work led him to a discovery that challenged the conventional wisdom of the day, which held prostitutes solely to blame for spreading sexual infection. In February 1864, a substantial spike in new visits to Hospital 15 accompanied the thousands of re-enlisted soldiers returning from furlough. The following days brought a surge of new female patients to the Pest House. Chambers concluded that the returning soldiers must have brought the S.T.D.s with them and then infected his female patients.
This is a little confusing because the hospitals are misnumbered in the first paragraph and numbered correctly in the second. Hospital 11 was the hospital for prostitutes, located on Second Avenue in the old home of a Catholic Bishop. (A lot of Civil War Historians think this picture is probably of that hospital.) Hospital 15 was for soldiers. So, soldiers came back and were sick and then prostitutes got sick.
There is a picture of Hospital 15. You can see a larger version at that link but I'm including it here for discussion. You can see a number of Union soldiers standing outside it and what appears to be a gallows. I guess their death panels worked much more swiftly than Obama's.
We assume your power is already out but, by the light of your laptop, smartphone or whatever battery-powered device in your home is still clinging to life, and read these links.

Downtown bar owner Chris Ferrell has surrendered himself to police after being indicted on second-degree murder by the Davidson County Grand Jury for the shooting death of Wayne Mills, the Metro Nashville Police Department announced Friday afternoon.
Ferrell allegedly shot Mills fatally in the early morning of Nov. 23 at Ferrell's Pit and Barrel bar on 2nd Avenue South, although Ferrell has claimed self-defense.
From the department's press release:
Ferrell and Mills had been involved in an argument inside the bar. After a thorough evaluation of the crime scene, evidence, statements from witnesses and autopsy findings, lead Detective Leonard Peck and his colleagues at the Central Precinct did not substantiate Ferrell's claim of self-defense. Detective Peck met with the grand jury this morning to discuss his findings, resulting in the subsequent issuance of the indictment.
Ferrell's bond has been set at $300,000.
(Editor's note: The Chris Ferrell under indictment is not the one that is the CEO of Southcomm, Pith's parent. Same name, different people.)
This Week The 'Drome Looks Back
Opening Face-off
What Could Be vs. What Is: With the Titans visiting Denver Sunday, this week in the dead-tree I look at the Titan-ic pursuit for Peyton.
And Titanic is the right word — a grand, massive idea that went terribly awry. Early in Peyton's search for a place, Titans GM Ruston Webster declared unequivocally the Titans were happy with their quarterback situation.
From February 2012:
"We're excited about our quarterback situation," Webster said. "I think Matt [Hasselbeck] brought us through a difficult time, especially once we lost Kenny Britt last year. I think everybody saw a glimpse of Jake Locker and … we're real excited about his future."Obviously Peyton's a great player but we feel like we're in good hands."
It's easy to imagine him patronizingly patting the fanboys' heads: "Oh, that is an interesting idea, Timmy, but I live in the Real Actual World, not a fantasy land where war doesn't exist and we get everything we want."
Keep stuffing your flowers into the business end of the rifle, kids. Dreaming is just fine, but reality is — you know — reality.
Of course, the Come Home Peyton folks are still spending money on billboards and print ads, proving that, despite the election year recriminations from the right, Americans are still free to spend their money however they want, even on patently stupid things.
But the heart wants what the heart wants, even when that heart is carefully ensconced underneath a garish white suit-coat. The late Bud Adams — whose repeated declaration "VY is my guy" should have been proof enough he shouldn't have been anywhere near decisions about quarterbacks — wanted Peyton Manning in Two Tone Blue as bad as any screeching fan at MetroCenter. As predicted, Adams' insistence that the Titans go all-in on Manning hamstrung the team, the effects of which we are still seeing with another moribund year from the Titans:
Yes, Manning played for Tennessee and in our heart of hearts we know this is the place he wants to play. So make up your mind already, Peyton! We need to know so the Titans can do what they have to do if you do something else. But this prison — if there is a prison — is a prison of Bud Adams' design. He's the one who decided he wanted to go hot and heavy after Manning. He's the one who usurped his general manager and front office, bigfooting them and telling them to shift all their resources to Peyton's gun, rather than the butter of the defensive line.
And now, while Peyton slings pizza for Papa John's, Titans fans eat the bitter fruit.
Some days there's only one thing you really have to read on the Internet. Today, from where we're sitting, Gawker editor Tom Scocca's essay "On Smarm" is that thing. (If you decide to read two things, add Scocca's remembrance of the late New York Observer editor Peter Kaplan to the list.)
From the Snarker's Manifesto:
At some point, in a piece like this, convention calls for the admission that the complaints against snark are not entirely without merit. Fine. Some snark is harmful and rotten and stupid. Just as, to various degrees, some poems and Page-One newspaper stories and sermons and football gambling advice columns are harmful and rotten and stupid. Like every other mode, snark can sometimes be done badly or to bad purposes.Smarm, on the other hand, is never a force for good. A civilization that speaks in smarm is a civilization that has lost its ability to talk about purposes at all. It is a civilization that says "Don't Be Evil," rather than making sure it does not do evil.
That's the link. This is a lynx...
Smith's family hopes to resolve some of their unanswered questions, and her brother is currently offering a $10,000 award "for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible" for her death. Full details are available via Nashville.gov, and here are the details regarding where to send any info:
Anyone with information on the identity of the cab driver or any other detail regarding the death of Livia Rose Smith is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 74-CRIME. Citizens can also send an electronic tip to Crime Stoppers by texting the word "CASH" along with their message to 274637 (CRIMES) or online at www.nashvillecrimestoppers.com. Persons who contact Crime Stoppers by phone, text or Internet can remain anonymous and qualify for a cash reward.
The $10,000 reward, which is being offered for the next six months, is in addition to a reward of up to $1,000 available through the Crime Stoppers program.
I guess this is the week of strange studies or something, but this one is really fascinating. By listening to recorded phone calls, researchers found that people from Ohio swear a lot and are really rude. In their defense, some of them have to live in Toledo, which is enough to put anyone in a foul mood.
But here's the interesting part. We're rude as fuck. Yes, Tennessee. We don't swear much (except for me, oops), but we're the fourth rudest state in the land! Surrounded on all sides by courteous states, we're apparently the jerks of the South. Even Kentucky is more courteous than us, which is depressing. They have better healthcare, the Colonel's secret recipe, and are more courteous? Jerks.
We have to do something to change our reputation. So, the next time you hear "This call may be recorded" just remember to throw in a few gratuitous thank-yous. We can't let Kentucky be better than us at everything.
Link No. 1's got Berlin on our minds. And, no, we don't mean Riding on the Metro ...

All the room is decorated very nice. The staff there is not very good at English, but this is not a problem and they are very helpful. The location is near by the lake and you will go about 15minutes through a calm wood and you will see some animals on the road!

Really close to the station just a short walk up the main road, easily accessible. Hotel was nice, we got there earlier than the check in time but luckily the room was ready for us, they also let us leave our bags there the day we left so we could look around the city. Standard room with a double bed and TV, clean, shared bathroom was also clean. All in all nice place to stay.

The hostel is near the Train Station. There's a lift. One key could be used to open from the front door till your room door. Amazing technology. City Sightseeing Tour Office is on the other side of your hostel. We have a washbasin inside our room with shared toilet. The carpet is humid. You need to pay additional fee for breakfast.

While the hostel itself was not bad and had a great location, the staff was extremely disappointing. The man who is usually there is apparently angry at the world and takes it out on paying guests. We were not allowed access to a kitchen, or even just a microwave - nothing at all. When we asked to leave our bags in a luggage room, they were put in the hostel's kitchen because they did not have a luggage room.

Excellent location if convenient transportation is what you need - literally 2 steps away from the metro station. At 4 am metro is already working, and it is easy to go to the airport to catch a morning flight - just check out the schedule and consider a 45 min. journey.

Okay so this is our modest OOC for Nine x Rose:
So from here we've picked for now: 2, 20 and then possibly 16/12. I'm sure down the line we'll make more plots and ideas, depending on what episodes we'd like to have them fiddle with. So you'll generally post two paragraphs, I'll probably end up posting three to four regularly myself, two probably being my minimum if I can help it.
So for the beginning, I'll be playing Mickey and Rose. I think we still need to figure out how we're starting and where we're going, so what class is the Doctor going to be teaching? We don't need aliens to be present in this first "adventure/introduction" but if you wanted them, any idea what you'd like? It may be wise to drum up aliens or future episodes we'd like to try out too.

Although I am fully aware that the Nyan Cat meme is about as old as Betty White in internet years, this ridiculous little two-week project was still a lot of fun, and was mainly for the purpose of determining how well I could pull off a wide range of musical styles in Logic. In a perfect world, this project would have been twice as long, but some genres are deceptively tough to reproduce with only a laptop at my disposal. In loving memory of Nyan Cat.

Hi everyone,
My friends & I are going to be Goa in mid-October this year. This is going to be our very first time in India, we're super excited and equally clueless. Would be great if someone in the know could recommend us places to stay & see there. Would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Deniz,
Wow – lucky you. I've never been to Goa (or indeed India – will have to rectify that soon), but our Goa destination page should provide a starting point:
India's Things Not To Miss page offers some overall ideas:
And this experience from our Make The Most Of Your Time On Earth book is worth a read:
I'm sure some of the other editors have a few ideas…
Okay, first off to answer your question properly we could use a bit more info.
How long are you in India for? Is Goa your only destination or a starting point? What are your likes/dislikes on things to do? Your tastes/budget on accommodation?
Until then, have a look here for all the basic info you need.
Thanks for the answers, guys! We're going for 9 days only (during Eid al-Adha) so we don't have much time, sadly. We already booked our tickets for Istanbul-Mumbai-Istanbul. We initially planned to do Kerala, then Goa and a couple of days in Goa but looks like 9 days is nowhere enough to do this properly. Also seeing as October is quite rainy in the South, we have decided to leave Kerala out and do Mumbai & Goa only. Decisions, decisions!
"Also seeing as October is quite rainy in the South"
Rain should be over by Oct except a rare afternoon shower. Tides will have turned, and the beaches will be swimmable.
Hello, I have been to a few places in India : Goa and Andaman and Nicobar Islands to be exact.
Apart from the beaches, there is the beautiful Basilica De Bom Jesus, Se Cathedral and a Shri Mangueshi temple to look at. There are always organizers beach side that offer banana rides, jet skiing, elephant rides, para-sailing. But to be honest, the most enjoyable time for us was renting scooters and riding in the Goan rains!
There shouldn't be much of a problem travelling to Goa in October. Bougainvillea Guest house in Candolim, North Goa will be good for your stay. I agree with @OneManWolfPack here, there is nothing like going around goa on scooters.
if there is a life to live then there s no place like goaaaaa

Woot! Got my new reeflo dart/snapper yesterday!
, 08-29-2012 at 11:56 AM (1071 Views)
Going to replace my GEN X PCX40. I'm excited - I expect to see less power draw and more flow. So, the return hole in my sump is currently sized for a 1" return and now I need to enlarge it for a 2" return. I know there are many reeflo fans out there - what size return / bulkhead do you REALLY use? Any advice on how best to widen the hole? A 2.5" (or close) drill bit seems cost prohibitive.

An array of actors sound off on bringing Superman to animated life.
The recently released made-for-Blu-ray/DVD animated film Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox is the latest in a series of films that began with 2007's Superman Doomsday that have served as small-screen adaptations of popular DC Comics storylines. Although there have been some return performances over the years, for the most part the studio has wanted different "name" actors to voice the various characters, especially the Man of Steel himself. What follows here is a look at the actors who have brought Superman to life in their respective projects.
Superman Doomsday
PLOT: When LexCorps accidentally unleashes a murderous creature, Doomsday, Superman meets his greatest challenge as a champion. Based on the "The Death of Superman" storyline that appeared in DC Comics' publications in the 1990s.
ACTOR: Adam Baldwin (Angel, Firefly, Chuck)
BALDWIN SAYS: "[The 1950s Adventures of Superman television series star] George Reeves, I remember watching him as a kid, and I thought that was cool. I'm not a purist, but that was my introduction. Later I remember seeing Christopher Reeve brilliantly portray him on film. That's the depth of my knowledge. But those didn't influence my performance. This didn't really allow me to go to some of those stylings, especially the comedy.
"This is really a story with a lot of 'more' — more intense, more emotion, more action, more investigation into relationships, and ultimately we're dealing with the death of Superman and the effect that event has on our primary characters and the world itself. So it's arguably the darkest of all Superman films."
Justice League – The New Frontier
PLOT: In the 1950s, a new generation of superheroes must join forces with the community's active veterans and a hostile U.S. government to fight a menace to Earth.
ACTOR: Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks, Desperate Housewives)
MACLACHLAN SAYS: "There's a sort of moral imperative that Superman has, and I think the language he uses is a little more proper — he's just not a guy who uses his words casually. So maybe, unconsciously, that 1950s tone just creeps in there for me.
"The physical performance is fun – you have to use your imagination a lot more. It's a lot of grunts and oomphs and ughs, which you just can't help but act out physically. I'm sure it looks funny from the other side of the glass [of the recording booth]. Like in one scene, it was about getting hit with a pterodactyl wing versus getting punched by a super villain. There's apparently a difference in that sound. So you have to shade it a bit and use the imagination."
Superman/Batman: Public Enemies
PLOT: When Lex Luthor gets elected U.S. President, he uses the threat of an oncoming kryptonite meteor striking Earth as a rationale to frame Superman.
ACTOR: Tim Daly (Superman: The Animated Series, Private Practice)
DALY SAYS: "The most surprising thing about voicing Superman for this film was that I realized how much I missed it. I found that I really had missed doing Superman. I thought that this particular script was really good and, for those of us who are interested and aware of certain things in our world and our country, I think that it presents a very kind of subtle social commentary. I think that makes it cool and relatively bold for something that's an animated Superman film."
Justice League — Crisis on Two Earths
PLOT: A good version of Lex Luthor from a parallel Earth comes to the Justice League's dimension for help to fight their evil counterparts.
ACTOR: Mark Harmon (NCIS)
HARMON SAYS: "I'm actually a little uncomfortable playing Superman. I mean, he's the guy, but I actually look at this much more as being a part of this amazing team of actors. That's one of the things that really attracted me to the film. And I'm more comfortable with being included than I am trying to stand out in any way. I wouldn't have done this just to say I played Superman. That's not important to me.
"To me, growing up watching Superman on black-and-white television or reading it in the comic books, all the superhuman things he did were cool. But the things that attracted me are really the human part of the character, or at least the part that was more real. Hopefully that's what I brought to that. He's a leader. He's a quarterback. He can be tough when he needs to be. He can certainly be direct. No matter who he's talking to, he tries to speak honestly. I understand those values."
Superman/Batman — Apocalypse
PLOT: Batman discovers a mysterious teen-aged girl with super-human powers and a connection to Superman. When the girl comes to the attention of Darkseid, the evil overlord of Apokolips, events take a decidedly dangerous turn.
ACTOR: Tim Daly
DALY SAYS: "What's interesting about the relationships in this film is that Superman and Batman are really on the same page. They are united and they only give each other a very modest amount of grief, whereas at other times they've been a little more at each other's throats, and more dubious about the other one's methods. And Kara [Supergirl] is, perhaps, Superman's last surviving relative. So he feels very protective of her, and sort of glad to have someone who has had or is about to have a similar experience as he's had coming to a different planet. So it's kind of touching, really. He's very paternal towards her. He really wants her to do well and to stick around. It's nice to see his powers used in connection with something personal. He's not saving the planet, he's not saving Metropolis. He's not saving Lois. He's saving a blood relative. So it's that kind of deeply personal feeling. I do enjoy that in the script."
All-Star Superman
PLOT: While saving the crew of the first manned mission to the sun, Superman is poisoned by solar radiation. Dying, he decides to fulfill his lifelong dreams, while still saving the Earth from various threats. But when Lex Luthor reveals his latest plot to control the world, Superman must use his remaining strength to stop him.
ACTOR: James Denton (Desperate Housewives)
DENTON SAYS: "While Superman is not monotone, he's also not very emotional. In voice work you tend to go a little further than you would if people were watching you in a camera, so it's a little bit melodramatic, but with Superman you can't do that. You can't go to these emotional places, because that's not what Superman does. And then you have fun with Clark Kent, which is the challenge – not to be the bumbling idiot. So the fun thing was making Clark Kent human while taking much more of the emotion out of Superman to make him more controlled. I remember [writer] Grant Morrison saying one time that there were kind of three people there. Superman and Clark Kent are the masks, and the real guy is the Clark Kent who was very secure, very strong, knew how to drive a tractor and was raised by Ma and Pa Kent. That really struck me and made it more interesting. In the end, I wasn't that worried about flattening him out emotionally, because I kind of heard Grant's voice in my head saying, 'That's what the real Clark Kent is sort of putting on — he's putting on Superman as well.'"
Justice League — Doom
PLOT: Vandal Savage steals confidential files Batman has compiled on the members of the Justice League, and learns all their weaknesses.
ACTOR: Tim Daly
DALY SAYS: "Well, as usual, it's all about saving the planet. But first, the Justice League has to save the Justice League. Batman disappoints his colleagues in the Justice League by having a plan to stop any rogue Justice League member, and by allowing those plans to be stolen. Superman understands Batman, though – he really has created these contingency plans for a pretty noble reason. He's trying to protect the world by inserting some checks and balances into this system, realizing that the Justice League has an incredible amount of power, and he wants to make sure that they always use that power in a way that's not destructive."
Superman vs. The Elite
PLOT: The Man of Steel finds himself outshone by a new team of ruthless superheroes who hold his idealism in contempt.
ACTOR: George Newbern (Justice League Unlimited, Scandal)
NEWBERN SAYS: "I think you watch an actor like Jimmy Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington or It's a Wonderful Life, and you try to find the humanity of an everyman like that. When I think of an all-American hero, I think of an actor in a role like that. And that's what Superman really is — an American hero. Superpowers are just ancillary. It's that character, with all those principles and understanding, that's who he is right there. I think I tried to portray a sense of trust and power and charisma for Superman. I think that's what we believe Superman is."
The Dark Knight Returns: Part 2
PLOT: The Batman has returned after a 10-year absence. The Gotham authorities want to arrest him. An old foe wants a reunion. The Feds want Superman to put a stop to him.
ACTOR: Mark Valley
MARK VALLEY SAYS: "It's fun to play a hero, but I love to be able to put a little bit of irreverence into it, or a little bit of humanity as well as sarcasm or irony. It's kind of fun to see who these people are with these immense abilities and huge responsibilities but still have time to kind of have fun with it."
Superman Unbound
PLOT: Superman and Supergirl must save the Earth as well as survivors of Krypton from the destructive android Brainiac.
ACTOR: Matt Bomer
BOMER SAYS: "I think I was 5 or 6. My mom made me a homemade cape for Halloween, one year. First, I was a Superboy to my brother's Superman, 'cause whatever superhero he was, I was either the lesser version of it or the sidekick. So, when he was Batman, I was Robin. When he was Superman, I was Superboy. But, like any four-year-old, it played very heavily into my psychology. And I think that's what makes the character resonate for so long, with so many people. He's who we hope we could be, in the most dire of circumstances. But, my mom made me a homemade cape, and I wore that thing out for two years. I didn't even care. I had no shame about it. I would strap it on. It had a snap. I'd get on my bike and just let it trail behind me. People would laugh. I didn't give a damn. I was Superman! Now, I'm the voice of Superman."
"I tried to keep up some of the consistencies of the characters that are maintained throughout every incarnation of the story, and then just deal with the script that we were given. In this particular story, it's a very mature Superman that we're seeing. He's always dealing with weighty issues, but he's very paternal towards Supergirl, he's very protective of Lois and he's also having to deal with Braniac, who is a very intense adversary. So, I tried to balance the heavier, more mature version of him with a lighter, fun, more charming sense of playfulness with Lois in our scenes."
Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox
PLOT: When the Flash travels back in time to save his mother's life, the ripples from that change in history has wide-reaching effects for not only every member of the Justice League, but the planet itself.
ACTOR: Sam Daly
DALY SAYS: "It's such an iconic character that there's always a pressure you don't want to disappoint all the fans, because there are millions of Superman fans. But if you think about that too much, you're setting yourself up for failure. I am an American Superman [laughs], unlike the new Superman in Man of Steel, so I've got that going for me. Every superhero is British now — we've got British Spider-Man, British Batman, British Superman.
"I think part of the reason I got cast was, 'You could be a really good weak Superman.' I'm kidding. When I read the script, it was really interesting because it is such a different take on him. What was so cool is that Superman has a different arc because he does start off weaker and a little less super, you could say, but by the end of the movie you can see him come into his own and be the Man of Steel."

Never once had it. Love an over easy egg runny, will I like this?
ok, who writes "goo goo at a at a, fukin jew heeb"?
"fuckyoubigot i dont like you're sig" "repeated annoying comments"
The Lord is not my Shepherd for I am not a sheep.
I like them with sausage or crab cakes instead of the Canadian Bacon
Hollandaise is tricky to make. It's butter eggs and lemon juice. Maybe some cayenne. My wife's a real snob about the shit. However I made eggs Benedict for the first time over a campfire on her birthday when we were dating. I used powdered hollandaise tho.

Rather than start a new thread, I will pose my question here. This is the yearbook from 1954. I think that O'Malley was very off base by having the yearbook for the whole year represent his plea for a new ballpark. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw stumbled on this. I understand that he was actively looking for a new ballpark, but for a championship caliber team to have a "gee, our present ballpark stinks" theme for the season is bizarre. I know you all hate his guts but do you remember any uproar over this? Am I overreacting? It's also an ominous omen.

"Oh, Really? No, O'Malley!".
Here is a nice piece of OUR history. An Official Scorecard for the 1890 BROOKLYN BASEBALL CLUB, who played at WASHINGTON PARK and were then known as the BRIDEGROOMS. 1890 was also the first year WE were part of the National League.

Here is a nice current photo of DUKE SNIDER taken on May 10, 2006 at the LA/Houston game....
Duke will celebrate his 80th birthday, come September 19th.
Thanks DD for that great photo of "The Duke".Originally Posted by DODGER DEB
He doesn't look 10 years older than me Maybe because he's keeping in shape and I'm ... well, let's just forget it.
He does look good. It's funny, I would think he was the centerpiece star of the Dodgers of the era as were Mantle and Mays respectively of their teams. What is interesting though is that I don't think he was ever the fan's favorite. I think Pee Wee and Jackie probably were. Maybe eyewitnesses can set me straight.Originally Posted by Bklyn Boy since 1936
You have that almost right, Shotgun.Originally Posted by Shotgun Shuba
Duke was really his own worst enemy. As long as Duke was hitting, all was fine. When he caught a slump, and was booed, even if WE won, he would sulk...and sometimes shoot his mouth off to the press, saying real dumb things. Brooklyn fans always liked him and what he did for us, but he never made it easy. I will say, once he started hitting again, and the boos disappeared, it was a love affair like you never saw. No doubt, WE never would have won anything without him.
But, you are right, Shotgun, Pee Wee and Jackie were always at the top of the list when it came to Brooklyn fans. Even the players agreed on that. No contest!
I think this was called the "Home Plate Bar" at Ebbets Field. Maybe it looks familiar

O'Malley started his quest for a new ballpark even before he took over as majority owner in late 1950. It galled him that Yankee Stadium had so many more seats. More seats meant more money, and money was what drove O'Malley.Originally Posted by Shotgun Shuba

Remember the letter "The Peepul's Cherce" wrote in early '47, requesting a trade so that he wouldn't have to play with Jackie?
A nice photo taken during the 1947 World Series of CARL FURILLO and DIXIE WALKER as they watch Yogi Berra's pinch-hit homer fly over the wall. It was the first WS pinch-hit homer. It was given up by Ralph Branca.

A not quite apros pos note because I didn't see any thread that this bit of trivia would apply to but it is interesting to note the fact that it shows the dominance of NY baseball in the World Series from 1949 thru game 3 in 1957. In all those years, no team other than any of the NY teams won a world series game. In the two series of 1950 and 1954 when other teams were playing, they were swept by the yankees and the giants. (notice the lower case letters). In all the other series during those years, they were played by NY teams. In the third game of the '57 series, the Milwaukee Braves finally broke the string against the yankees.
Ahh! But that is a very important, and recurring theme here. Is Brooklyn New York City? Is all Brooklyn Dodger history unique, as all Detroit Tiger history is unique? Were Brooklyn and Ny rival cities?
Originally Posted by Shotgun Shuba
In my mind, Shotgun, and I would say in the minds of most BROOKLYN FANS, WE were a city unto ourselves. What happened in the late 1890's to make BROOKLYN a part of NYC should never have happened. BROOKLYN was always a unique city, and certainly didn't need the other four boroughs for support. Rather, I think it was the other way around...they needed US!
IF BROOKLYN had it's own mayor and city council in 1957, OUR DODGERS would still be where they were born, and still belong....at home in BROOKLYN!

LITTLE EYES: Remotely controlled robots use onboard cameras
to explore the deepest innards of sunken vessels.
Image: Courtesy of Walt Disney Pictures
At the beginning of the movie that made Leonardo DiCaprio a megastar, a camera-toting unmanned robot ventured into a cavernous hole in the wreck that sits on the bottom of the Atlantic, 12,640 feet from the surface. The 500-pound vehicle, christened Snoop Dog, could move only about 30 feet along a lower deck, hampered by its bulky two-inch-diameter tether hitched to a submarine that waited above. The amount of thrust needed to move its chunky frame stirred up a thick cloud. "The vehicle very quickly silted out the entire place and made imaging impossible," director James Cameron recalls.
But the eerie vista revealed by Snoop Dog on that 1995 expedition made Cameron hunger for more. He vowed to return one day with technology that could negotiate anyplace within the Titanic's interior.
In the past six months two documentaries--one for IMAX movie theaters called Ghosts of the Abyss, the other, Expedition: Bismarck, for the Discovery Channel--demonstrated the fruits of a three-year effort that Cameron financed with $1.8 million of his own money to make this vision materialize. The payoff was two 70-pound robots, named after Blues Brothers Jake and Elwood, that had the full run of two of the world's most famous wrecks, the Titanic and the Bismarck, which they visited on separate expeditions.
The person who took Jake and Elwood from dream to robot is Mike Cameron, James's brother, an aerospace engineer who once designed missiles and who also possesses a diverse background as a helicopter pilot, stunt photographer and stuntman. (Remember the corpse in the movie The Abyss, from whose mouth a crab emerges?) Giving the remotely operated vehicles freedom of movement required that they be much smaller than Snoop Dog and that the tether's width be tapered dramatically so as not to catch on vertical ship beams.
Mike Cameron took inspiration from the wire-guided torpedoes used by the military that can travel for many miles. His team created vehicles operable to more than 20,000 feet (enough to reach as much as 85 percent of the ocean floor). The dimensions of the front of the robot are 16 inches high by 17 inches across, small enough to fit in a B deck window of the Titanic. The bots have an internal battery so that they do not need to be powered through a tether. Instead the tether--fifty-thousandths of an inch in diameter--contains optical fibers that relay control signals from a manned submersible vehicle hovering outside and that also send video images in the other direction. The tether pays out from the robot, a design that prevents it from snagging on objects in the wreck.
Robots Jake and Elwood, with their 2,000-foot tethers, took on starring roles, exploring the remotest reaches of the Titanic.
James Cameron thought the project would be a straightforward engineering task, not much harder than designing a new camera system. "This turned out to be a whole different order of magnitude," he says. "There was no commercial off-the-shelf hardware that would work in the vehicles. Everything had to be built from scratch." If the team had known this early on, he added, "we wouldn't have bothered." Water pressure on the cable that carried the optical fibers could create microscopic bends in the data pipe, completely cutting off the control signals from the submersibles. Dark Matter in Valencia, Calif. (Mike Cameron's company), had to devise a fluid-filled sheath around the fiber to displace the minuscule air pockets in the cable that could lead to the microbending.
To save weight, the frame--similar to a monocoque body of a race car--was made up of small glass hollow spheres contained in an epoxy matrix. The thruster contained a large-diameter, slowly rotating blade with nozzles that diffused the propulsive flow, minimizing the churning that would otherwise disturb the caked silt. A high-resolution video camera, along with an infrared camera for navigation, was placed in the front of the craft along with three light-emitting-diode arrays for fill lighting and two quartz halogen lamps for spotlighting.

The big gaming companies in the world of iOS (Zygna, PopCap, Rovio, etc.) get tons of attention paid to each new offering in the iTunes App Store. I prefer to focus on the smaller independent gaming publishers; organizations that put out fantastic products that may fly under the radar due to the overwhelming number of apps available.
Digital Dreams Games is a perfect example of such an organization. The budding indie game developer hasn't been around long, but in their short existence the founding trio has been prolific, releasing a total of six games (two specifically for iOS devices). Considering that there are well over 700,000 active apps in the iTunes store (stat courtesy of 148apps.biz) such a small newcomer is very hard to spot, but their latest offering Cowbeam is worthy addition.
The oddly named game focuses on the story of Hank the alien's amorous frustration. He's found the love of his life in a cow from Earth, but is at a loss because he can't win her heart with his otherworldly physique. The gameplay consists of finding lots of cows throughout the universe for him to research so he can devise the perfect bull body to win the affection of his crush.
Cowbeam is at heart a riddle-based puzzle game. Each solar system contains a cow, and you're provided a limited number of choices to find it amongst the solar system's planets. Each planet has a clue, such as the planet with the cow has craters or doesn't have rings. Some planets have bonus stars as well- you'll need to collect them to unlock later levels or additional planetary picks. Each planet's cow is unique addition to your gallery patterned after it's host planet.
While the concept is a simple one, the gameplay is engaging due to some very well done 3D graphics and excellent use of the touch interface. The player spins the planets of the solar system to bring the desired planet to the forefront, then spins the planet chosen to search for hidden icons signifying clues, stars, or the elusive cow. Should you find the cow Hank's ship zooms in and beams it up. Run out of guesses and you'll have to start all over again with a new set of clues waiting for you.
Cowbeam is charmingly engaging. While each solar system takes just a few minutes, the game isn't quickly finished- it contains over 50 levels spread out over 9 galaxies, and the difficulty level ramps up appropriately as you go further into the game. Even though you may find your cow, you must also collect stars to unlock additional galaxies, and the stars have no clues to help you find them (although they do provide an additional pick, making your task a bit easier). The crowning jewel of the game is it's artwork and animation; the cutscenes are as entertaining as most of what you'll see on Cartoon Network lately, and the game's overall artwork is outstanding.
Cowbeam was enjoyable to play for multiple reasons- my aforementioned affinity for indy developers, the whimsical plot and animation, but most importantly it's a unique take on an simple idea. With dozens of imitators and ripoff games out there, games that actually offer something new are well worth my time.
Cowbeam is compatible with all iOS devices (although for iPhone users they recommend iPhone 4 or later; 3GS performance has been less than optimal) and is available now via the iTunes App Store for just $1.99.
