Russo: A definitive thread for opinions on him.
So I finally read the Death of WCW about two weeks ago. Afterwards, I started thinking about all the idiots that ruined WCW, one of them being Russo. Over the years, I've heard and read many people in the business bury him, but I realized that I couldn't remember all the criticisms, critics, and sources. So, I decided to do some searching on the many critics of Vince Russo and put them in this thread.
Also, if anyone wants to post something positive that someone in the business has said, go ahead.
From Eddie Guerreros autobiography; pg. 195, beginning of Chapter 26:
Russo and Ferrara were under the misconception that gimmicks and bad comedy vignettes were the answer to WCWs problems. Nitro became even more of a mess than it had been in Bischoffs final days, as Russo and Ferrara tried to pop the ratings with endless series of stupid angles, swerves, and what they thought wrestling fans wanted to see mostgimmick matches.
For whatever reason, those guys were total marks for pole matches. Theyd put anything on top of a polepiñatas, knuckles, a crowbar, a lethal jacket, Buff Bagwells mother. My personal pole match fiasco had the Revolution locking Billy Kidmans girlfriend, Torrie Wilson, in a shark cage. Then Perry Saturn challenged me to a match, with the key to the cage on top of the pole.
I was supposed to save Torrie by grabbing the key and winning the match. But the finish was a total mess. I had put on too much baby oil before the match, and the combination of baby oil and sweat all over my arms and chest made it impossible to climb up the damn pole! Every time I tried to get up there, whoosh, Id slide right down. Oh shit, I thought, what am I going to do now?
The other Filthy Animals started panicking and tried to help me. I pushed Konnan off. Dont worry, Ive got it I unintentionally piefaced Bully Kidman. Fuck off! I can do it!
Finally I leapt for the key, and thank God, I didnt miss. I wouldve been so screwed! That was one of those do-or-die moments when you do whatever it takes to make the match work.
By this point, I had figured out what was becoming obvious to everybodyRusso and Ferrara had no idea how to save WWE. The back-stage politics might have improves under their reign, but the product continued to suck.
From Chris Jerichos 2nd autobiography in which he describes "writing" his own promos:
I spent weeks writing my debut promo, and afterwards I kept writing my promos unassisted, only going over them briefly with head writer Vince Russo before each show. I decoded it would be a good idea to go into full-on creep mode and insult the other superstars in the WWE, accusing them of being boring and only half as talented as me. I was never really given a specific directive to insult people, but knew that my character thought the company was boring and stagnant, and I was there to shake things up. Russo, listened to my ideas and told me, Great, go with it.
After each promo I didnt get any feedback from Russo (or anybody else), so I figured that meant everything was good. I was intimidated by the aura of Vince McMahon and I never asked him what he thought I should do, even though in retrospect that would have been a good ideas. Wrestling is like a giant high school clique, and if youre the new guy who comes in looking different and acting different, youre going to get blasted for itmostly behind your back. With zero allies in my new company, I had nobody to stand up for me when my back was turn. Even worse, because I didnt really ask Vince or any of the boys for advice, I came across as an arrogant prick who thought he knew it all. Unbeknownst to me, I was stockpiling massive amounts of nuclear heat in the process.
Jericho on Russos problem with writing his character:
Looking back now, I think one of the biggest problems I faced at the beginning of my WWE career stemmed from that fact that Vince Russo loved the character I played in WWE. He loved my cowardly heel comedy schtick and wanted me to continue in that vein. I played that character in WCW because I wasnt getting any attention from the office anyway and had nothing to lose. In the WWE main event world, money players couldnt be comedian or cowardly all the time, and I had been brought in to be a major player. Major players have to be believable, and in Vinces mind while there can be elements of comedy to them, people have to believe they can kick somebodys ass. Russo didnt see things that way and kept booking me in all these preposterous WCW-esque situations.
Jericho on Russo leaving WWE for WCW:
A few weeks later on a chilly fall afternoon, I arrived at the Meadowlands Arena in New Jersey and found out that Vince Russo had quit the WWE and jumped to WCW. It seemed like a huge blow to the company at first because he took a lot of credit for being the main architect of the Attitude Era. But Vinny Mac and the rest of the front office werent so worried because they knew that wasnt the case.
I asked Pat, What do you think is going to happen?
Ive seen them come and Ive seen them go, it doesnt make a difference. As long as Vince McMahon is here, its going to be okay. No big deal.
But it was a big deal to me, as Russo was the one who had brought me into the WWE and was my biggest supporter in the company. He was the middleman between Vince and me. The guy who constantly backed me up when Vince thought I wasnt good enough to cut it. Russo believed in me and treated me with the respect of a top guy.
Now he was gone.
Sure, he dug me into a bit of a hole with all of his preposterous cartoon ideas. But at least I had a story, a presence on the show and a raison dêtre. Things in the WWE were already bad for me as it was, but now I was really up shit creekand my paddle had just floated away to WCW.
Bruce Prichard on Vince Russo from around 2010 (
Tensions amongst the WWE Creative Team while Bruce was with the company & why he feels Steve Austin deserves the credit for the success of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin" (and not Vince Russo)
"There were times when you just had to buckle up & go; there was always tension. Once it got past that initial creative discussions, then you had to go sell it to talent, and then you had to get talent to go out & deliver your vision. I listen to guys all the time, and one of the things I always get amazed by is when different people & guys who have written or booked in this business take credit for something the talent does. There's a guy over in TNA (Vince Russo) who has taken credit over the years for the creation of 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin, The Rock, & people like that. At the end of the day, the guy who deserves credit for 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin is Steve Austin. He went out & delivered. Steve went out, and he was 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin 24/7. When Russo used to write up all these scripts, Steve would look at it, crumple it up, & throw it in the trash. Steve would go out, and he had a rapport with Vince McMahon, and he used to come to me and say 'I wanna say this.' I said 'Hey man, that's life, so if you wanna take the ass-chewing when you get back, do what you think is right.' After a while, Steve gambled, and went out, and he did what he thought was right. He had an ear, and he knew what was working, and what they buying & weren't buying, and at the end of the day, it may not have been the ideal creative situation that was created, but Steve made it his own, and made it bigger than anything that's ever been done in the business. Without talent, you can have the greatest creative in the world...if they can't deliver, it doesn't matter."
Rise and Fall of WCW featuring Goldberg, Mysterio, Dusty Rhodes, Malenko, and Anderson (start at 3:19):
Dave Meltzer on Russo booking Arquette as champion:
Schiavone said if half joking and half serious. Russo thought it was brilliant. It was 100% Russo's call to do it.
Meltzer on Russo and Ferrara leaving WWF:
I just remember when Russo & Ferrara left WWF, there were people who considered the loss of Russo as, well, not significant, but not insignificant either. Ferrara was considered a joke, like "look who they overpaid to get who never had a clue."
Meltzer on Russo's booking against Gabe Sapolsky's booking:
"Which concept is closer to what makes money in 2006?
Russo's or Sapolsky's.
Sapolsky books a company with no television exposure that is profitable, which isn't easy in the modern wrestling business.
Russo's lone success came 1997-99, with a Hall of Fame talent crew that ended up being more successful in 2000, and peaked in the spring of 2001, long after he left.
Times change. Hanging onto crash TV would be like saying Pat O'Connor should be exhumed and worshipped because he booked St. Louis successfully, not recognizing he had a Hall of Fame talent crew and one of the best promoters ever who was truly steering the ship. Sound familiar, by the way.
I have no doubt Russo made very positive contributions by shaking things up. But they didn't stand the test of time. You can go through history and see hundreds of bookers who had great two year runs and burned out and never had success again. Plus, while Russo was a big part of WWF's success, he was far from the only part. Jim Cornette was a major part of the booking team through the early part of 1998, and 1997 was the year that set the stage for the comeback. The Hart Foundation-Austin feud that set the stage for the comeback was largely the brainchild of Bret Hart, with Vince and everyone thinking the idea of a Canadian heel being a babyface in Canada and the Americans being heels week-to-week was insane. The Rock was going to be a superstar no matter what, and Rock gives far more credit to Brian Gerwitz and Chris Kreski as writers than he does Russo. Austin was already running before Russo got there, and Austin has no respect for Russo. HHH and Undertaker were strongly negative when Vince McMahon considered bringing Russo back, and basically got him nixed. If the guys who he supposedly made stars don't have a high opinion of his work, what does that tell you? All of those guys will praise Vince McMahon, and will praise the other wrestlers on top in the mix when it got hot.
He didn't learn new tricks and to this day doesn't even realize that nothing works forever, and is just trying to recreate basically a short hotshot period. Every booker does this. Watts had so much success with JYD that in every booking run, he tried to find a new one. But in the end, today, he'll admit with the benefit of hindight it was JYD that was what worked, and not the concept of JYD. Just as The Rock worked, but not Buff Bagwell, Sonny Siaki or Booker T playing The Rock, all of which Russo tried and failed with.
Russo failed in 1999 with WCW
He failed worse in 2000 with WCW
TNA was a money pit in his multiple booking runs before this one
Not all of this was his fault. However, Sapolsky was put in a position, starting out an ambitious indie group, where 99.9% of people, including Russo, in the same position with the same money to work with, would have failed within three months.
Russo then tried Ring of Glory, which is a direct comparison with ROH. Different style, but an indie group with a specific theme. He lasted a handful of shows and went nowhere and created zero new stars. Sapolsky during the same time period with the same or less access to name talent lasted almost five years and basically handed TNA every star it has that wasn't created in the major leagues.
For booking in 2007, do I want someone whose booking was successful in 2006, or in 1999 and flopped five times, some of them among the worst flops in recorded history (WCW in 2000 was the worst flop year I can ever recall and he wasn't the only reason for it, but he was in power for several months with business falling consistently)?
Besides, if you know guys who work for both TNA & ROH, and I talk to a few pretty regularly, not one isn't begging for Sapolsky to get the TNA job.
There is a reason Joe showed up at a house show with his knee injury a few weeks back and said, "Sorry for not being able to wrestle. On the way here I tripped over some bad booking."
This isn't about match quality or what you prefer. This is about proven results in this decade."
Bret Hart on Vince Russos writing in WCW from his autobiography:
At WCW, we were hanging on for dear life trying to put over Vince Russos weird story-lines. Russo thought his storylines had a lot to do with the WWFs rise in the ratings war, but he didnt get, and never would, that the best wrestling needed at least to pretend to be real. He had grand plans for meas a heel. I told him the sympathy factor for me was too strong to pull off a heel turn, not to mention that Id been turned so many times already. He still wanted to do this big angle on Nitro where I turned heel on Goldberg the day after Starrcade 99 in Toronto. I hated it all, but I was so angry at McMahon that I hoped Russo could bring the company back to life with his radical soap opera booking.
Bret Hart on that time that Russos writing nearly killed a 2nd Hart:
The next day in Salisbury, Maryland, for Thunder, I told Russo that I was badly hurt from Goldbergs kick and that I thought I might have a concussion. He still wanted me to work a match with Benoit, with Jeff Jarrett coming out to double-team him. Goldberg would charge out and spear Jarrett while I fled the scene with cameras following and Goldberg coming after me in hot pursuit. Id race to my rented Cadillac, which would be parked on the back ramp with the keys in the ignition, and just as Goldberg reached my car Id zoom out of the building. Wed go off the air with a seething Goldberg punching out the windows of a limo, a sharp steel gimmick hidden in his fist.
While Russo went over everything, I reasoned (in the foggy way a concussed person reasons) that I could do all that easy enough. All I could think about was getting home for Christmas. That night I had a good solid match with Benoit, who did his best to take it easy. Jarrett came out and then the one-man tank, Goldberg. When Goldberg speared Jeff, I ran down the aisle, jumped in my car and floored it out the back ramp just as Goldberg caught up and pounded furiously on my car windows. What nobody noticed was that as I pulled out, my car hit the icy pavement and I skidded out of control, having had no time to put on a seatbelt, so there I was with a concussion, barreling head-on towards a huge TV production truck! I thought of Owen in that instant. What would the world think if I got killed plowing my car into a TV truck for some stupid stunt? People would say, Youd think Owens stupid brother would know better than that!
Luckily the tires hit a patch of dry pavement and I burned rubber past the truck to safety. Even with my head full of fuzz I was plenty pissed off and came steaming back to blast Russo, but I completely forgot about it when I saw a worried Goldberg holding his arm in the air with blood pouring everywhere.
Later on:
In Houston for Nitro on December 27, I went looking for Bill Bush and Vince Russo. I could barely remember Christmas, despite how crappy it was. I still wasnt sleeping well, and my head was pounding with the constant pain in the back of my neck. I told Bush: Im not a stuntman, Im a pro wrestler, and from now on everything I do needs to be done in the ring.
They both apologized profusely for the circumstances that put me in the state I was in; yet not ten minutes later, Russo told me that he needed me to drive a giant monster truck over the top of Sycho Sids rental car, with Sid in it! As out of it as I was, I looked at Russo and said, Are you guys for real? I just told you that I dont do stunts. Im a goddamn wrestler.
On top of everything else, Russo was putting me with Jerry Flynn, an ex-kickboxer with limited pro wrestling ability. That night, while brawling out on the floor, Flynn leaped up with a spin kick and hit me so hard in the guts that I crumpled to the mat. I struggled to recover because either I had to or take more of the same.
I finished the match, but I wondered why WCW thought the best way for me to get through my concussion was to work with a stiff rookie. Then I watched a fully loaded Cadillac with eleven miles on the odometer get crushed by the monster truckall for a thirty-second ending to Nitro. Stu wouldve cried if hed been there.
He says some more stuff about Russo, but theyre mostly a sentence or two surrounded by him talking about wrestling with concussion problems. I could extract them, but I think everyone gets the picture.
Roddy Piper on Vince Russo:
To all wrestling fans world wide:
As time has gone by I have sat on the sidelines watching Vince Russo destroy, not only the sport you fans love, but the lives of many wrestlers by putting them out of a job with no where to go and no way to feed there families. I have heard, and watched how Russo turned on Hogan, leaving one of the greatest of all time humiliated and treated with no respect for a man like Hogan who we all, including myself, know has given tremendous contributions to our sport. I know I have said negative remarks about Hogan, however, I have wrestled him so many times I can get away with it. But Russo has not earned that right. I understand that I have offended the wrestling fans with an interview I did on NWA-TNA on December 4th. Please let me explain exactly what I was trying to do.
As I have gone through the United States over the last thirty days, I have seen the most wonderful fans coming up to me and begging for somebody to do something about the state of wrestling as they missed the days that they had spent with their father watching it and how they long for the day they could watch it with their child to see the magic in their eyes while they enjoy the sport that their father and their grandfather watched, creating a bond from father to son, second to none. The last two days of my tour I had to drop the bus off in Nashville, TN. Being in Nashville, a person brought me a tape of the NWA-TNA. I sat down and watched this tape only to see Vince Russo using language that would embarrass a sailor and daring anyone to try to stop him from changing professional wrestling/ sports entertainment Vince Russo style. I spoke with an NWA-TNA official who explained to me that their format was a total shoot format, with nothing written, and they also expressed a yearning for traditional professional wrestling that we all used to love. So I say to you fans, I will tell you my thought process and hope as you read it whether you agree or not you will understand at least that my intentions were pure.
After watching the tape by myself, I sat on a couch and started to recall all of the people Vince Russo has destroyed. Why was this man after killing one of our greatest wrestling institutions, WCW, still being used in any kind of way in our sport? So, I thought that by all of your feelings that you had told me that somebody had to take the first step. As the sport of professional wrestling gave me not only a life but my family, I am eternally loyal to the business of my profession. So I decided to see how good Vince Russo was and where he was coming from. I asked permission to have a forum to express my feelings and the feelings of every wrestling fan I have run into about Vince Russo.
This is exactly how it came down:
I was told that I would have approximately five minutes to air my feelings and I must first take responsibility for what I said as the NWA-TNA was completely innocent of any wrongdoing. I was supposed to be by myself at which time I was going to do a five minute interview trying to bring attention to the plague that follows the real-deal professional wrestler who is still working under contract and not allowed to speak freely. As the interview progressed, I turned around and there was Vince Russo, standing in the corner, legs crossed, as cocky as he could be. At this time, I didnt know if I was being set up or not. It was explained to me that it was a shoot forum, so I got literally nose to nose with him and gave him a chance to my face to tell the world not only his side of where he is coming from for the betterment of our business, and giving him a chance as he was the writer in the WWF when Owen Hart tragically died to give not only me, but everyone watching, a chance to get to the bottom of what really happened. I asked him if he was responsible for Owens death. What I meant by this was, since he was writing at the time, was it his idea, and if it was his idea, was he aware that Owen was afraid of heights and was he aware that Owen was thinking of quitting as he did not want to do this stunt. If Russo had answered the question, which I gave him time to do, he could have cleared it up. However, he said nothing. Then I asked him and I quote, I need to be a gentleman about this, what is it you are trying to accomplish? No answer again, except Russo saying to me, Youre a moron, at which time, nose to nose, I slapped him upside his head and the man did not move. Then came the Harris twins. At this time, I had no idea what was going to come down. But interestingly enough, when the Harris twins got to the ring, Russo was pretending to be held back as he wanted to get to me. Wait a second folks! I was just nose to nose with him, slapped him upside the head, if he wanted to get to me I think that would have been the opportune time. That in itself speaks for what kind of man Vince Russo is. I understand that the wrestling internet is admonishing me thinking that I would use Owen as a tool to draw money and/or sell a book. This media had such a small audience that it would not be the forum that I would use to draw money nor after doing the Associated Press and 102 other interviews this month. I ask you a simple question: Why hasnt somebody else stood up like a man and confronted this fellow, who is killing wrestling and will in turn kill all the internet wrestling websites as if he is allowed to go on, you people will have nothing else to write about. I refused any money in any way and I have no intentions of ever coming back as my life is going on past the wrestling world. I understand that the internet wrestling site run by Dave Meltzer and the site run by Wade Keller have been bashing me as hard as they can. However, Dave Meltzer when he allowed me to be on his show, called back to my tour manager Dave Penzer as it was the highest rating he had ever had. So that didnt seem to bother Dave Meltzer, however, I must point out to the public, that now Dave Meltzer and Wade Keller have written in their newsletters, the same newsletters that they tease on the front of their website for you to buy, the account of last nights interview. So, these fellows instead of just telling you fans straight up whats going on, they make you buy it on their newsletter. Now, my point is, the ones that are bashing me are the only ones that are asking money to tell about the accounts of death and destruction in my business. Whats wrong with this picture? I know what I said may have offended you, but I needed to get everyones attention as there are a lot of people who talk about doing things, but very few people actually do. Knowing Owen, I did take some time to think of what he might have thought of what I was about to do, and I sincerely believe that he would have said not to let his life go in vain. My intention was to save the wrestling business, not to harm it. If you have any questions or opinions, address them to
ASAP and I will be more than happy to answer them or have a web chat, whatever it is you want. I do realize this also, that if it wasnt for the very fans that are mad at me now, I would not have a life. So I care a lot more about you than you think I do, I guess I just go about things a little different, as you will see in the PiperView shoot interview. To sum it up, whether it was an angle or a shoot, For those who believe no explanation is needed, and for those who dont, no explanation will do.
Ever Forward,
Roddy Piper
Here's a video of Piper's shoot on Russo:
Buff Bagwell on Russo:
"Buff Bagwell did an interview before the PPV with Alex Marvez. Regarding his attempt over the summer to go to the WWF, he said that on the New Blood Rising PPV, Kanyon was supposed to beat him and take Judy Bagwell as his valet. He said it was Russo's idea, (and) that nobody but Russo liked the idea. He said he asked Kanyon 'Are you sure you want my mother as your f---in valet?'."
- The Wrestling Observer Newsletter: November 06, 2000
Jim Duggan on Russo:
Egomaniac. I think he took a lot of credit for turning WWE around, said Duggan. Thats how he got into WCW. Like he had saved the WWE from WCW. You know WWE is a lot like Mid-South was. You know Bill Watts would Ernie Ladd, Bill Dundee and 3 or 4 other guys give him ideas. But, Bill Watts would make the final decision. Same with Vince McMahon, he makes the decisions up there. Russo was just one of the guys that gave him ideas to turn that company around. Of course him coming down to WCW and thats what I dont understand. If a guy takes WCW with unimaginable resources and flushes that down the toilet, why would someone at TNA give him the reigns down there? That doesnt make any sense.
Dutch Mantell on Russo:
I would post stuff from 'Death of WCW', but I would have to post whole pages. Also, I didn't post anything from Cornette or Lance Storm because I assume a lot of people already heard/read their criticisms of Russo.

Well, I didn't make this thread to simply post negative stuff about Russo. Like I said, if people want to post positive things about him, they can.
Also, while Jericho did say nice stuff about Russo, he said that Russo's writing was cartoonish, didn't understand his character, and that when Russo left WWF most of the people in the office weren't worried, which shows that Vince McMahon is the core reason for why the WWF did well and not Russo. Not to mention, in the Rise and Fall of WCW, Jericho says that Russo was one of the reasons why WCW started going down the drain.

Understandable why Russo is hated, he had more bad ideas than good. Luckily, Vince knew enough about wrestling to discard the bullshit, a knowledge nobody in charge in WCW had.

Re: Russo: A definitive thread on insiders' opinions on him.
Vince Russo cracks me up because he's so full of shit. As more time passes by, it's like people forget how terrible he really was. Hell, he even has some damn fans now, some on this site! It's ridiculous.
not ten minutes later, Russo told me that he needed me to drive a giant monster truck over the top of Sycho Sids rental car
This is the funniest thing I've read in a long time. I can totally picture that conversation happening too. I hate everything about Vince Russo, from his stupid-ass accent to his faux religious shilling.

That part was really funny. I also got a laugh from imagining goofy ass Buff Bagwell telling Kayon, "Are you sure you want my mother as your fucking valet?"

Arn Anderson saying he and others thought Russo was there as a conspiracy to purposely kill the company was hilarious.

Re: Russo: A definitive thread on insiders' opinions on him.
One thing most don't credit Russo for, he really did try to give everyone a storyline, no matter how small they were, and the guy was creative as hell. That being said, yes, he had a horrible understanding of a lot of things in the business and his cartoonishy, sex based angles were one of the many reasons WCW died.

Is this true? I think I've read/heard guys that said Russo didn't have anything for them because he didn't know what to do with them. I think Daivari once said Russo didn't have anything for him, and Storm has said that after he and Bischoff nixed an idea where Bischoff was supposed to be Storm's father, Russo didn't know what to do with Storm.

It is a much tougher job than most folks realize. I would like to see more people (including myself) volunteer more of their time and talents to the department.
I think the Rec Department has always done a great job for the community. They deserve a lot more public credit.

Seating Offers Design Possibilities
Building owners
and facilities managers can use ergonomic chairs to express the good taste and
professionalism of their office personnel and business enterprise. Ergonomic
seating manufacturers, such as BioFit Engineered Products, Waterville, OH, offer
chairs in classic and contemporary styles that function as a key element in
office design. These styles are available in models for executives, managers,
computer operators, drafters, and visitors. Each model is offered in upholsteries
and fabrics in a wide range of colors, patterns, textures, and tones. This selection
of styles and models offers opportunities for creating a seating design theme
throughout any office environment, beginning with the boardroom and executive
suite and continuing through to the reception area.
Ergonomics are a leading consideration in creating offices that are safe and
comfortable. Employing ergonomic principles can increase productivity, reduce
occupational injuries, reduce lost time, and lower operating costs.
Seating is critical when individuals spend most of their day seated at a desk
or workstation. Individuals use nearly 100 muscles to balance in a seated position,
and inadequate support can place fatiguing strain on back, leg, and stomach
Ergonomic seating acts as a natural extension of the body, providing the balanced
support that helps maintain proper posture. Ergonomic seating supports the torso
and hips so that minimal force is exerted in holding the torso stable. This
support reduces fatigue from highly repetitive operations or concentrated computer
work, and reduces the risk of musculoskeletal and cumulative trauma disorders.
People have differences and limitations created by their height, strength,
and other factors. Their work is done on surfaces of differing heights. One
of the most important benefits of ergonomic seating is its ability to adapt
quickly and easily to these differences.
The purchase of seating can be complicated by the word "ergonomic."
Some outlets apply it to chairs that offer few, if any, ergonomic benefits.
These chairs fail to offer the balanced support required for long periods of
sitting and/or the adjustability to adapt to different users and their tasks.
Adjustability, combined with basic ergonomic support features, should be the
focus of evaluating and selecting chairs. Adjustability usually eliminates the
need for a different chair model for each person (although individuals with
special physical needs may require a specific type of chair). Concentrate the
selection process on a short list of models that offer:
Backrest with lumbar support to help maintain the back's natural S-curve
(however, such support might not be appropriate for an individual with atypical
spinal curvature).
Backrest height adjustability, enabling the lumbar support to fit the
Seat pan that is at least an inch wider than the user's hips and thighs
on either side, with seat depth to provide room between the lumbar support and
hips (for maximum comfort, the seat should have a waterfall front and sufficient
cushioning to prevent feeling the seat board).
Seat tilt adjustability, to promote even weight distribution and proper
torso-to-thigh angle.
Seat height adjustability, to help assure that the chair's height will
fit the user(s) and their tasks.
An ergonomic chair should have controls that enable a seated user to quickly
and easily adjust both the seat and backrest. Ergonomists and knowledgeable
manufacturers' representatives can provide guidance on the appropriate seat
height range for an office application.
The evaluation process should include manufacturers' capabilities. A manufacturer
should offer:
Chairs with modular construction, enabling interchange of components
as needed.
An extensive selection of options - including armrests, controls, footrests,
casters, and glides - for customizing basic chairs to specific applications.
Full-service support, including retrofitting at the office site, to ensure
satisfaction with new chairs.
Warranty coverage of chairs and components, along with the credibility
and experience to back warranty guarantees.
To summarize, shop for chair adjustability, modular construction, and option
availability. Compare manufacturers' warranties. And work with an experienced,
full-service ergonomic seating manufacturer to achieve the goal of good value
per dollars spent.

In light of a FAIR report characterizing the misidentification of Gaza photos on ABC News as "an embarrassing mistake" and a "reflection of a worldview," I'm compelled to point out that it was nothing of the kind. It was, rather, a deliberate falsification.
On its July 8 news broadcast, ABC News mischaracterized a photograph of a Palestinian family devastated by an Israeli strike, as an Israeli family after an attack by Palestinian rockets:
As reported by Huffington Post,
This was the picture in question. It was taken by the AP's Khalil Hamra. The caption reads, "Palestinians try to salvage what they can of their belongings from the rubble of a house destroyed by an overnight Israeli airstrike in Gaza City Tuesday."
In the July 8 broadcast, Diane Sawyer told viewers that the picture showed "An Israeli family trying to salvage what they can."
Note that the phrase "trying to salvage what they can" is lifted directly from the AP caption attached to the photo, which unambiguously identifies the victims as Palestinians.
Clearly, ABC's newswriter read the caption, stole the evocative phrasing, and swapped in "Israeli family" for "Palestinians."
This is no mere "mistake" reflecting unconscious political bias. It is a conscious attempt to deceive.

Christians have the duty to rejoice, to express their joy to the world. Great thinkers like St. Augustine explain to us that joy is love which possesses its object. When we have what we most desire, we are able to enjoy and rest in what we love. We also know that many things we desire, even when we attain them, do not provide a joy that lasts. Most things we desire are too small to occupy our hearts... Read More

Bathtub faucet issues
When you take a shower, more water comes out of the faucet then the shower. Do we need a new faucet/shower set or is there something wrong in the wall with the actual pipes?
Sounds like you need to replace the diverter spout. If it is a slip on type on the bottom next to the wall would be a slot that would have a phillips or allen head, just loosen that and work the spout off.
I had the same problem with an older type tub with 3 handles near the tub outlet. The middle handle, the diverter, used to divert from the tub outlet to the shower, needed washers. That's the simple answer. Mine had other issues, too. Just replace the washers. I did the valve stems too. About $8 each for hot and cold, and $15 for the diverter.
Sometimes a special socket is needed to remove these. They're fairly cheap--a good hardware store should be able to help. I'm a BIG fan of my neighborhood store, as opposed to Osh, HD, etc. Find one you can trust, and that has good advice, and you'll save lots of time, and sooner or later lots of $!
If you have another type faucet you should say what you have so someone else can help.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – The Penguins will be keeping one of their top goal scorers for a few extra years.
The team announced today that they signed forward Chris Kunitz to a two-year contract extension.
The deal, worth an estimated $3.7 million a year, keeps Kunitz with the Pens through the 2013-14 season.
Though he's only tallied one point in the first four games of the season, last season marked a stellar year for the 32-year-old. Kunitz was the team's second highest goal scorer behind Sidney Crosby – putting the puck in the net 23 times.

Today is National Pet Day! This holiday is all about appreciating and celebrating the wonderful pets in your life. Did you know that there are approximately 86.4 million pet cats and 78.2 million pet dogs living in the United States today? Gerbils, birds, turtles, and fish are also very common. If you consider your pet a member of the family, you are by no means alone. Six out of ten pet owners feel the same way!
Celebrity pet lifestyle expert and animal welfare advocate Colleen Paige founded National Pet Day to raise awareness about the importance of pet adoption. The motto of the holiday is "Don't shop! Adopt!" and it is sponsored by the Animal Miracle Foundation, whose mission is to help animals in shelters find forever homes.
To celebrate National Pet Day, take your dog on a long walk or give your cat a little extra catnip to show your love and appreciation. Not a pet owner? Consider making a donation or volunteering at your local pet shelter. Happy National Pet Day!

Solve Media Uncovers $1.5 Billion in Wasted Ad Spend
New Research and Survey Results Show That Bot Traffic Is a Growing Problem in the Digital Media Industry, Impacting Publishers and Advertisers
NEW YORK, NY—(Marketwire - Sep 28, 2012) - Solve Media (www.SolveMedia.com) today revealed that 10 percent of all online traffic is generated by bots — software applications that run automated processes across the Web. eMarketer predicts online display ad spend will reach $15.3 billion globally in 2012, which means that potentially $1.5 billion in ads will be served to bots. Since 2011, Solve Media has witnessed a 400 percent rise in aberrant traffic across registration, voting, commenting and contact services on the web. The company's CAPTCHA-based advertising technology provides security authentication solutions for publishers.
Bots harm publishers by stealing content, posting inappropriate comments and creating fake user accounts that can be used to launch other bot attacks. Advertisers are also negatively impacted by bots through wasted time and money spent marketing to entities that will never become customers. Both advertisers and publishers risk their reputations when bots are active on web sites.
"By working with Solve Media, we've taken the necessary steps to stop bot traffic that targets Meredith through our contest and sweepstakes entries," said Andy Wilson, SVP of Digital Marketing at Meredith Corp. "These actions ensure the most positive experience for our users and our advertisers."
Solve Media reviewed a monthly average of 100 million identity authentications from all of 2011 to August 2012 across 5,000 publishers. Key findings include:
- The majority of bot traffic comes from the U.S. based on total numbers.
- Singapore (56%) and Taiwan (54%) had the highest percentage of bot traffic; in the U.S., bots are 16% of total traffic.
- comScore observed that between 4% and 11% of ad impressions for given U.S. campaigns were delivered against bot traffic; web site security firm Incapsula estimates bot traffic to be 31%.
What Bots Do
Bots are computer programs that automate tasks, such as clicking on web page functionality or ads. When bots crowd web traffic, they cause advertisers to pay for impressions that are not being seen by human beings. Bots undermine the security of the web and cause harm by stealing publisher content, creating spam assets and posting inappropriate content.
"Security is a paramount concern for publishers and advertisers, as they continue to be victimized by bots. Publishers need rock-solid solutions to stop massive, global bot attacks that can happen at any time," said Ari Jacoby, CEO of Solve Media. "Solve Media engineered its technology from the ground up with security at its core. No other ad technology company has the capabilities, experience and commitment we have to solving this problem."
Jordan Rohan, Managing Director and Equity Research Analyst, Stifel Nicolaus and Co. added, "Bots present a much larger threat to display advertising than most advertisers understand. Solve Media addresses this problem head on through human authentication, while also providing an effective advertising platform."
To protect against bots, advertisers should:
- Seek cost-per-engagement (CPE) media opportunities that demand human cognition.
- Embrace publishers that have proactively implemented an anti-bot solution.
- Demand third-party attitudinal research that confirms effectiveness of ads.
- Require site transparency on all network buys.
- Implement attribution tracking technology on all video buys.
"The existence of non-human traffic is an issue that affects the entire digital ad ecosystem," said Kirby Winfield, SVP of Corporate Development, comScore. "comScore research has shown that a significant percentage of ad campaigns are delivered against non-human traffic, which represents waste for advertisers that can diminish their confidence in the medium. Any efforts to quantify the magnitude of this problem and validate ad delivery represent a step in the right direction for digital."

Xcel: Some customers in mountain communities may lose power Monday
Xcel asking some customers to limit gas use
SUMMIT COUNTY, Colo. - Xcel Energy tells 7News it is continuing to make repairs to a natural gas pipeline serving Summit County communities that failed Sunday afternoon.
The utility company is asking Summit County customers, including those in Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper Mountain, Dillon, Silverthorne and Frisco, to significantly reduce their natural gas usage by turning their thermostats down to 60 degrees or as low as you can comfortably and safely tolerate.
Xcel is also asking those customers not use natural gas appliances such as fireplaces, gas-fired hot tubs and dryers or appliances that use hot water, such as clothes washers and dishwashers until after noon on Monday.
This step is needed to reduce natural gas use this morning until we can complete repairs and re-pressurize the natural gas system, according to Xcel.
If natural gas use cannot be reduced enough, Xcel warns it may have to implement electric outages to groups of customers to further reduce the demand for natural gas.

Others apparently see only a list of recommended titles. To judge from this discussion thread, the only thing these new options share is that Netflix's customers loathe them. According to Netflix spokesman Joris Evers, they're doing "what's called A/B testing to see which version of a particular feature/experience results in increased Netflix viewing and better retention of our members." So if people quit the service, as many of the complainants have threatened to do, that's a good indication they didn't like the new look. (Update, 4:10 p.m.: Evers writes in to note that "members who see their queue changed into a list as part of the test and don't like it can contact customer support and request to leave the test and get their old experience back.")
Yes please? I don't know why there aren't more outraged articles about this—I suppose because they're rolling it out gradually. What the fuck, Netflix.

100 Real Tweets from Homophobes Who Would Murder Their Gay Child
@Homophobes, a Twitter account that retweets homophobes to expose their ignorance, published a collection of 100 horrifying tweets where people said that they would murder their child if he or she was gay. These tweets were all posted within 24 hours.
From the Storify post:
On March 12, 2012, the hashtag #ToMyUnbornChild became a trending topic. People used this hashtag to "tweet to" their future child. Here are 100 real tweets from real people — all within 24 hours — saying they would murder their child if he or she was gay.
I wonder how many of these people would call themselves "pro-life"
Anyway, George comes up to me the first day of filming and he takes one look at the dress and says, "You can't wear a bra under that dress."
So, I say, "Okay, I'll bite. Why?"
And he says, "Because … there's no underwear in space."
I promise you this is true, and he says it with such conviction too! Like he had bee nto space and looked around and he didn't see any bras or panties or briefs anywhere."
"When the woman answered the door, she looked at my daughter and said, 'We don't support Girl Scouts because they support abortion, which kills babies.'"
I have read a lot of pro choice arguments today and I have to say the "If abortion becomes illegal women will do it anyway but they will have unsafe back alley abortions and possible die from it" argument is the most hilarious so far.
If someone decides to shove a coat hanger up their vagina to kill a baby then I could care less if she died too. Why should I give a fuck if you bleed to death or get an infection and die from killing a baby? I don't. Maybe, if all of the women who thought it was too much trouble to keep their legs closed or too much trouble to carry the unwanted baby to term then give it up for adoption all gave themselves back alley coat hangar jobs the world would be rid of baby killers? Sounds good to me.
Riddle me this, Batman. If an unborn baby isn't alive then how come it can die in the womb?
I don't give a shit what your religion is, murder is wrong.
Have any of you pro-choicers even bothered to find out for yourself how an abortion is done or what an aborted baby looks like? It's horrendous. You wouldn't do that to anyone walking or talking today but you'd do it to your own fucking baby simply because it isn't born yet and you don't want to be responsible for something you got yourself into?
Oh, I hear the outbursts now…But what if it was rape? You have to live the rest of your life knowing you were raped and no abortion is going to make you forget that awfulness and somehow your selfish ass still can't manage to keep that fucking baby alive long enough to pop it out and tell the hospital you don't fucking want it? Really?
I do not hope to change any pro-choicers opinion on this because you are all selfish assholes that believe in abolishing innocent lives so you can continue living uninterrupted because you feel you are so self entitled to throw away your responsibilities a.k.a dismembered dead fetus' in a fucking trash bag.
And by the way, if abortion becomes illegal and women are using coat hangars again that will indeed be me you hear applauding as you bleed to death and rid the country of all the self centered murderous bitches. :) Have a nice day
Edit because I don't know how to respond to the comments here:
What's that pro choicers? You don't like it when I treat you with the same disdain that you treat unwanted pregnancies? How does it feel that I wouldn't mind if your life was snuffed out just like millions of unborn babies? OH, don't like it? Too bad, deal with it. You get what you give <3
I just want to demonstrate one key point out of this garbage. (Thank you, anon, for sending this to me.)
Pro-lifers generally are not pro-life. As this woman demonstrates quite clearly, she only cares about unborn life. She clearly does not care about the lives of people who are already alive.
Her own political belief is a disgusting lie. Well, her own beliefs are just downright disgusting, too, but seriously. Never have I seen this spelled out so clearly!
And that's all I've got to say on this revolting person.
"And by the way, if abortion becomes illegal and women are using coat hangars again that will indeed be me you hear applauding as you bleed to death and rid the country of all the self centered murderous bitches."
Pro-life, ladies and gentlemen. Someone who calls themselves pro-LIFE is willing to applaud the death of others and thinks they know who deserves to live or die.

Stephen Slevin was never convicted of a crime. But for two years, he languished in a New Mexico jail cell, going month after month without showers or outdoor recreation or human contact.
His nails grew so long that they curled. Refused medication and denied access to a dentist, he says he was forced to pull his own tooth.

What the hale-bopp is going on here
This is some serious Cast Away bullshit
When the Feminists came for the Rapists,
I remained silent;
I was not a Rapist.
When they locked up the stalkers,
I remained silent;
I was not a stalker.
When they came for the Players,
I did not speak out;
I was not a Player.
When they came for the men who they got bored of,
I remained silent;
I wasn't some one they were bored of yet.
When they came for me, the nice guy,
there was no one left to speak out.
—From a Tumblr I won't link here because it is so damned stupid.
This is adapted from a piece about Nazis, right? Sorry, Nice Guys (TM): you are not as persecuted as the Jews in Europe under Hitler. I know. Shocker. Someone had to tell you.
Relatedly, I know very few people - IN GENERAL - who associate themselves with rapists and stalkers. But, you know, whatever - you're a "nice" guy!
What is this even supposed to MEAN? The men who they got bored of?
"So in the DSK rape case, we're supposed to believe that an African immigrant housekeeper suddenly decided to have sex with a wealthy white man 30 years her senior for 3 minutes on a bathroom floor in the middle of her work shift. To believe this story, you must know nothing about race, class, power and rape."
Here are a few things that are making me sad:
- This is a real thing that happened.
- This is a real thing that happened and wasn't an isolated incident.
- The NYPost article bothered to report what the woman was wearing, because obviously, that matters.
- The same article ends with a comment from the alleged perp's precinct, saying that the officer "never distinguished himself…he's been mediocre at best." Oh, good! His job performance is so very relevant. Let's rejoice that he wasn't a stellar cop, ladies, because if he'd been well-liked I guess no one would have supported an investigation because it could ruin his career?
- I need a drink.
happy valentine's day! (via worldofwonder)
I completely missed this when it was posted, but I have to reblog it because it's pretty much the best thing I've ever seen.

I Ask Sometimes.Sometimes I get to feeling crappy inside and I ask my mom to spank me.
I know its dumb but it does help me feel better.
I have no clue why ?
i have ask for spankings also when younger for fear of getting caught
You might want to look this up on the internet---you're not alone. It's quite common.
Has your mom spanked you recently at all?
Does she spank you after church?
Spank kids just need spankings. It is like both an emotional satisfaction and an emotional purge.

There is almost nothing more intimate between two people than the spank scene.

One is nude, one is clothed -- one is in power, and one is not -- and in truth, they are both vulnerable in two different ways, but they both need those feelings!!

Spanking is Very important!
I think that you are a 'good boy' who craves this experience as a physical and psychological need. We all have different needs, and different ways that we get satisfaction. A naked butt spanking works on several levels. You are nude in front of another person. You are helpless. You expect a stinging and memorable sensation and experience. You feel that you are being purged of inner tension and anxiety. You are giving up control, as you do not make the rules, but are being punished by the rules. You give up yourself to this experience, as you are not fighting back, you are taking the spanking naked and vulnerable. In the end everyone can see your red butt as you stand in the corner. You feel as though you have released much inner desire, needs, and stress. You are a good boy!
I just think you are brave to ask. No need to think too much about it.
Ja, spankings must always be given with love.
A4kids, well said!
Spankings give one closure from transgressions and coming from someone (mum etc.), that loves you, gives you the feeling that you are forgiven.

Also the endorphins that forms in your body gives you an feeling of goodness. Sometimes it could be erotic to receive the touching.
Do you have to bare your own bottom for one of these requested spankings? What position are you spanked in then? Ever regret asking for the spanking afterward?
Hey Preachersboy!! What you describe is not odd, strange or wierd at all. it is not difficult to understand, but a bit long-winded. I have the explanation in my hard drive, so if you want I'll copy and paste it and post it on here.
It could be you need some body contact. Maybe they never hug you and touch you except when they spank you. You need some contact, everybody needs contact. And if they don't give you any contact except of while spanking, then it might be you rather like to get spanked than never ever getting touched at all.

Do your parents and especially your mom hug you at all?
why would you ask for a spanking
if one new that one might not do it . as a teenager i think i liked the Attention . My Parents had very nstrict Rules . if Rules are Broken by me i new i would be Punished . it was the 1950s when i was a youngster . it was LEGAL in the 1950s 1960s even into the 1970s their was Parental Discipline in most homes . in my teens i often Allowed A Neighbor to Spank me She was a Woman in her 40s Living alone and a friend of my Mum.s . Meneytimes she Watched my mum Smacking my bare bottom over the years and in my teens i often had a throbbing peins after mum spanking my bare bottom very hard . Respected Gent Age 63 years young Looking back . email@example.com .
Then I guess were in the territory of we know it happens but don't know why it happens. Oh well, ...
I thought of something that might make a difference in why you feel this way, but my question before explaining is do you cry when you get a spanking?
its not weird . Email me if you want to i mySelf had the same feelings as you in my teens . email@example.com
your right it was like that for me . as a young teenager i often Provoked My Mum into Smacking my bare bottom at bedtime . i never could Understand why i did it . Mum would Say turn of the Light soon or i will Spank you David . YES Mum i would say . if it is Stil on Later you will get the Slipper . Later Mum would say did i tel you to turn of the light . yes Mum . then i think you must like having your bottom Smacked turn over on your belly David . i would do as i was told . then Mum would pull my Pajamas down and Smack smack smack until her hand hurt then Mum got her Slipper or a bathbrush . the back of a brush Mum used sometimes . it hurt like hell but i liked feeling my peins getting hard . When it was over i would play with my peins most of the night befor going to sleep with it in my hand
your not the only one PreacherBoy . i must have been weird to . it was the same for me growing . i always felt better after being Spanked by my Mum or Extended family
i felt very Loved and cared for when i was over my mum.s knee having my bare bottom smacked . Mum would start soft at first then a bit harder . She would say have you been a very NaughtyBoy David . if i said yes Mum i have been a badboy and deserve all i get . them Mum would smack my bottom as hard as she could until her hand hurt and i was in tears .
I can't tell for certain why from what you say (it could cover anything from feeling guilty to reasons that are much harder to figure out). I don't know if I could clarify this or not, but if you ever feel like discussing this feel free to contact me further.
Some people just like a warm bottom. If it helps you and your mum is ok about it, carry on asking. Be happy!
i no that feeling well . i used to Provoke my mum into Giving me a hiding when i was a teenager back in the 1960s . i was happy to get my bare bottom Smacked by my Mum . Sometimes i got more than just a smacked bare bottom . if i Provoked my mum twice in the same dayi got thrashed with a thick Leather Strap or one of her canes . the thickest Cane mum had hurt the most and made Stripes Across my bare bottom
how hard does she spank you in this situation? Is it like when you were a naughty boy and she gives you a thorough spanking?

Reds' early-season performances.
Did you know? United, while still named Newton Heath, lost 7-1 in the first ever meeting with Stoke in 1893. Since then, the two teams have contested 96 games, of which the Reds have won 38 and drawn 32, scoring an impressive 145 goals in the process.
Opposition boss: Despite being in the midst of a relegation dogfight, Potters manager Tony Pulis is relishing this weekend's clash with United at the Britannia – although he is wary of a reaction from Sir Alex's men. "It's a game that we are looking forward to," the Welshman says. "This is why you want to be in the Premier League. We have given them good games here before. They have just lost against City and I'm sure Fergie will have been at them this week. It will be incredibly tough for us."
Star man: Goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has excelled all season and has reportedly caught the attention of several top clubs, including Fulham and London neighbours Arsenal. The Bosnian looks set to move this summer after young prospect Jack Butland signed for the Potters in January. In the meantime, the towering stopper must help his club avoid relegation to the Championship.
Quote/unquote: "We are still 12 points clear and now we have to win the next game. Since I've been here I've never lost two games in a row. That's why I hope we'll keep going against Stoke and win. We just have to win the next game." – Patrice Evra
Sub-plots: The numbers are simpleL: United need 10 points from the seven remaining fixtures to win the title and the Reds are no doubt determined to claim three of those on Sunday.

- Great Review by CGT
Price Value Quality
Worst instruction I have ever seen. Some of the linked strikes are useful but over all this thing is terrible. The instructor actually tells you to cross your feet during a strike followed up by a take down! Anyone who know anything will take that and destroy you. He actually demonstrates a jumping jab. To make the moves look "cool and fast" they have a huge waste of your time at the end of every segments with review in a manipulated video that is blurred and the sound is slowed and isolated so he sounds like a wild animal, this is a huge wast of time. The "drills" are mostly crap and some of them will create bad habits in novice students none of them are much use. Over all this may work for a cop dealing with a drunken idiot who does not know anything, but most of this is pure crap do not waste your $ get one of the Krava Maga, BJJ, boxing, or Muay Thai instead. At best this POS is a wast of $ at worst it is dangerous and if you use much of it in real life it will get your ass kicked.
