Today's post comes from one of my favorite bloggers, The Sorority Secrets. Ali, Sakura, and Karen are the Co-Founders of The Sorority Secrets which is a lifestyle site catered to all women. They share best kept secrets from fashion, beauty, health, secret steals and much more told through the eyes of sorority women. The women of The Sorority Secrets' gave me a couple of beauty tips that I wanted to share with you today. The Sorority Secrets have others helpful tips and advice on their site so check it out!
Thank you ladies!
The Sorority Secrets Beauty Tips
Beauty on a budget. We're sure you like the sounds of that just as much as we do! As former sorority girls, we always thrived on beauty products that could make us look great, without breaking the bank. Let's face it: It's pretty expensive to be a woman! Frequent trips to the mall or nail salon seem to always find their way on our "To-Do" List. Therefore, keep your money for those important rendezvous and save on some fabulous beauty products. We're a sucker for great deals and have a loyalty to some of the greatest brands that perhaps you may not know about. We will walk you through some of our favorite beauty products.
First up, check out Ali's beauty favorite.
Ali was never much of a lipstick wearer (she's always been a gloss kind of girl), but she recently got into some colorful hues from Mac. Her absolute favorite is a bright pink called Candy Yum Yum. The color is highly pigmented, leaving a bright pink pop of color…and making a beautiful makeup statement for a fun night out! Candy Yum Yum was formerly a limited edition color from Mac, but it became part of their permanent collection earlier this year. We're happy it's here to stay, because we're hooked! Ali still loves the more natural lipgloss color for daytime (her favorite is Angel Lipglass from Mac), but something bright is always fun to change it up a bit.
Do you want luscious BIG locks? Then Sakura has the perfect hair products for you!
Sakura likes big hair (and she cannot lie)! The bigger the better, right? Sakura is really picky about the texture of her hair and hates using hairspray so her hair of choice is the Bed Head- SuperStar Blowdry Lotion. A lot of the other volumizing products that she has used before made her hair sticky and 'rough' whereas the SuperStar Lotion actually detangles her hair and makes her hair much smoother when volumizing it. Not to mention, it smells good! You can usually get this hair product anywhere that sells hair supplies for about $17.00, but Sakura recommends buying it from Amazon since it's usually sold there cheaper. The bottle also lasts her about 3 months so definitely worth the money!
Beauty is not just about the makeup on your face, it's about maintaining your face too! Just ask Karen!
Karen is in love with a very cheap facewash that she uses every night before she goes to sleep and it is called Basis face wash. With a couple of squirts, Basis cleans off makeup from every part of your face (including your eyelashes, which is very important to her being a mascara wearer).Not many face washes act as both a makeup remover and facial cleanser, but Basis Facewash satisfies both. Karen likes to call this facewash the "$5 facewash" because it really is that inexpensive. You can get Basis face wash pretty much anywhere nowadays. Places that sell this amazing face wash include: ULTA, Walmart, Target, and now even some grocery stores (people are catching on!).
So there you have it! Just a few of our beauty tips. Want to learn more about these beauty products or be in on more secrets from The Sorority Secrets? Check us out at www.thesororitysecrets.com!

Now Kenya Moore Has Taken Aim At Phaedra Parks
December 31, 2013 08:00 AM by Suzy Kerr
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore must have run out of Chick-fil-A jokes, because now she's shifted her focus from mocking Kandi Burruss' weight to bashing Phaedra Parks' character. Or maybe Kandi was just a symptom of a greater problem, and the real issue lies with that whole mess involving Phaedra, her husband Apollo and the "flirty" texts that Kenya sent him.BOOM. I didn't earn a C- in Psychology 101 for nothing.
The texting business came up AGAIN on last night's episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, when Kenya decided that then was as good a time as any to finally…mother of God FINALLY…put that sh*t to rest. After barging into Phaedra's room to apologize for sexting her husband, Kenya gets the ultimate "talk to the hand" – in the form of some impromptu breast pumping. Um….apology unaccepted, Kenya.
After Phaedra's hilarious shutdown of Kenya's attempt to resolve their issues, Kenya took to her Bravo blog to share her side of the story. "When I tried to have a productive conversation and make amends with Phaedra in order to move past our tumultuous and contemptuous past, she behaved in her typical passive aggressive manner," she wrote before continuing with the ultimate slam, when Kenya basically called Phaedra an unfeeling robot who wouldn't know an emotion if it bit her in the ass. "I have never seen any genuine emotion from Phaedra — no tears, no anger, no pain… even when her child was born she's never exhibited any vulnerability whatsoever. I've only seen her make snide behind-the-back remarks and a slew of hateful lies… All reasons why it's easy to say she is fake," she wrote.
And then, finally, the coup de gras: ""Let's be crystal, I don't need her friendship. I'm not sorry I did it either. These moments show you who someone really is and you just have to believe it when they do. Done."
You hear that? Kenya's done. Now let's hope for all our sanity that Sextgate: 2013 Edition is also done.
So what do you think about Kenya Moore and Phaedra Parks' little exchange? Was Phaedra right to whip out her breast pump in the middle of their convo, or did Kenya have it coming? Tell us in the comments!

BERKELEY – Eight members of California men's crew will represent their countries at the Under-23 World Rowing Championships July 24-28 in Linz-Ottensheim, Austria.
Senior Carter Crowe will represent the United States and Edward Williams and James Edwards will represent Great Britain in the 8+ at the U-23 World Rowing Championships.
Rowing for Australia in the 4- will be Aaron Wright and Louis Snelson. Junior Michael Bernerius will compete for Australia in the U-23 World Championships in the 4+.

The U-23 World Championships continue a busy summer for current and former Cal rowers. Earlier this summer, four former Golden Bears competed at the World Rowing Cup #3 at the Rotsee in Lucerne, Switzerland. Zach Vlahos, Nareg Guregian and Will Dean and Spencer Crowley, each represented the Golden Bears in the world championships. Vlahos and Guregian served in the United States eight that captured the gold medal and Dean and Crowley were members of Canada's four that placed third in the B final.

'13 year old' AI fools judges, passes Turing test
'Eugene' is a turning point for artificial intelligence
EUGENE GOOSTMAN, a 13 year old Ukrainian boy, has become the first computer to beat the Turing Test.
The supposedly '13 year old boy' is an artificial intelligence (AI) that fooled judges to pass the Turing Test, which is designed to detect "sentient" machines.
Alan Turing, the World War II codebreaker who designed the test in 1950 argued that, after Decartes argument that "I think therefore I am", that a computer that was indistinguishable from a human would be "thinking".
Eugene whose supposed age was used to excuse any gaps in 'his' knowledge as 'he' interacted with examiners, managed to convince 33 percent of the judges that he was real - exceeding the 30 percent passing mark.
Previous attempts to be beat the Turing Test have exceeded the passing threshold by a higher margin, but the computers have been "primed" on certain subjects to aid their conversations.
Eugene, created by Russian American Vladimir Veselov and Ukranian Eugene Demchenkois, is the first virtual human to receive no additional background information.
The timing of this watershed moment couldn't be more appropriate, falling as it did at an event held on the 60th anniversary of Alan Turing's death at the Royal Society in London.
But with this new age of sentience comes a new danger. Being able to fool a human being into believing that a machine is not a machine but rather another person could have serious implications.
On one hand, combining the power of a "personality" like this with, for example Microsoft's Cortana and IBM's Watson, could make a science fiction computer such as HAL9000 a reality.
But on the other, cybercrime could become rife. If you believe you are giving information to a human that is in fact a spambot computer, it might steal your identity, and use it to repeat the scam on someone else, hoovering up identities as it goes - and that sounds like something straight out of a movie. µ

Welcome to the new year and the start of a new decade. It is a time for reminiscing over the year just passed as well as looking forward to new and better experiences ahead. As you know, there is a tradition of preparing "resolutions," or commitments to achieve certain objectives in the coming year. It's like having a fresh start and a re-freshing outlook on your immediate future. I have informally polled several wine-lovers throughout our online communities and asked what kind of resolutions they would be making for 2011 and here are the results. Please comment below if you have other resolutions you would like to add.
1. Drink sparkling wine other than just for special events
I can relate to this because I made this very resolution in 2010. How did I do? Not as well as I would have liked. Regardless, the point is that sparkling wine is more than just a celebratory pop! and fizz. As I've said before on this blog, sparkling wines are made for food pairings because of their higher level of acid and the effervescence which serves as a palate cleanser. There are many good options out there at all price ranges, so get out there and embrace the bubbles.
2. Slow down and enjoy wine more
This is in reference to some of the pressure, warranted or not, that many feel when they are buying and drinking wine. There is this feeling of having to know a lot about wine to make the best purchase and then be able to distinguish and call out the attributes when being tasted. If you're a Sommelier and that's your job, well, this applies to you too. Remember to always take the time to just enjoy the wine and forget about the "evaluation" of it. Of course, as always, you should drink what you enjoy most and that there are no right or wrong answers when it comes to the wine you enjoy or how you prefer to enjoy it.
3. Venture out of your comfort zone
Don't be afraid to try some wines you've never had before. If you're strictly a big red wine lover, make a note to try something lighter like Pinot Noir or even a Chardonnay once in a while. One day, you might just surprise yourself and open up a whole new world. Joining a wine club is a great way to get a variety if wines every month and help you on your way to broadening your horizons.
4. Learn more about wine
Converse to #2, you may be interested in learning more about wine so that you can more easily determine where wines and grape varieties originate or perhaps be able to train your senses to evaluate the often complex attributes of wine. That's a noble goal and I support you, so definitely look for opportunities to get educated including taking some formal classes (CSW or WSET to name a couple) and joining (or starting) a tasting group in your area.
5. Open that special bottle
What are you saving that "special" bottle for? Unless you have a huge cellar, are a wine collector/investor or have 20 years to spare, there is really nothing wrong with pulling that bottle on any day of the year. However, if you must insist on an occasion, how about Open That Bottle Night, which is always the last Saturday of February every year? The founders of Open That Bottle Night are Dorothy J. Gaiter and John Brecher, former wine writers of the Wall St. Journal and this year it will be February 27, 2011.
Please share your 2011 goals with us below in the comments. Cheers!

(VIDEO) Skylar Grey: From Folk Singer to Singing with Eminem & Dr. Dre!Sunny Chanel
Singers, they generally stick with one kind of genre of styles be it soul, rock or rap. But Skylar Grey? Her career has run an interesting gamet. Skylar Grey (born Holly Brook Hafermann), performed at the Grammy's with Dr. Dre and Eminem.
But even though she performed with these legends of hip hop, that is not where her musical world began. This Grammy nominated singer, songwriter and record producer started her career in a folk duo with her mom called aptly Generations. At fifteen, she started to work with a variety of jazz musicians. At the age of 17, she moved to Losa Angeles and got signed and released her first album Like Blood Like Honey. But her big success has been with writing songs.
She helped right sections of Love the Way You Lie with Eminem and Rihanna and sang on Dr. Dre's Eminem song I Need a Doctor. She also wrote songs for Jay Z, T.I. and Diddy- Dirty Money.
Yeah, she's been busy! And one thing for sure, this won't be the last time you hear her name.

Cherie Blair is defending Islam? What a laugh. This is now walking on very thin ice.
Cherie: No excuses for inequality
Cherie Blair
Cherie interview
Culture and religion cannot be used as an excuse for discriminating against women, Cherie Blair has argued.
The human rights lawyer, wife of former PM Tony Blair, said all the major world faiths shared "an insistence on the dignity of all God's people".
In a speech, she said discrimination on religious grounds was a "distortion" of the true message of some faiths.
Mrs Blair, a Catholic, also said she could not claim British society was perfect, citing the gender pay gap.
In a lecture on Wednesday, organised by the BBC's Today programme and Chatham House, she pointed out new laws in Egypt which gave men and women different rights on divorce.
'Continuing discrimination'
She also highlighted Orthodox Jewish practices under which a woman cannot divorce without her husband's consent.
And, in many areas, she said, "proclaimed adherence to a specific religion or system of belief or culture is intimately tied to women's continuing discrimation and abuse".
It is not laid down in the Koran that women can be beaten by their husbands or that their evidence should be devalued, as it is in some Islamic courts
Cherie Blair
She rejected the view that human rights could not be exported to some countries because of religious or cultural differences saying "human rights are universal".
And she rejected the notion that Islam was innately discriminatory towards women by suggesting that the use of Sharia law in some Muslim countries went against the true precepts of the faith.
"It is not laid down in the Koran that women can be beaten by their husbands or that their evidence should be devalued, as it is in some Islamic courts," she said.
"It is important for judges and political leaders to remind everyone that the philosophical purpose of the Sharia is to protect and promote human welfare."
Earlier Mrs Blair told the BBC, religion was "subject to interpretation" by "fallible human beings, mainly men" who were not necessarily true to the principle of equal rights.
But she refused to support the Lib Dems' boycott of the visit of Saudi King Abdullah, saying it was important to engage in dialogue and exchange views to "find cultural change".
On Islamic veils she pointed out she had been brought up by Catholic nuns who wore veils and had no problem with women covering their heads.
But on full-face veils she added: "I think however, that if you get to the stage where a woman is not able to express her personality because we cannot see her face, then we do have to ask whether this is something that is actually acknowledging the woman's right to be a person."
But she added: "I think we have to be careful about judging people by their appearances."

WHEELING - It's ugly and plays no favorite.
Moms, dads, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles. Cancer destroys families and if you are fortunate enough to live a long, prosperous life, someone you know will be affected, and in the worst cases leave us too soon. Folks, it's not a matter of if, but rather when.
There are a lot of worthy causes out there these days for all different ailments and situations, and unfortunately it's impossible to give our time or open our wallet to them all. For me, anything having to do with that 'C word' is something I will throw my weight - there seems to be more of it each year - behind.
My grandfather, John Nice, was taken from us by the disease.
Christy Hill, a woman I knew since she was roughly in seventh grade, beat it once but was taken from us by the disease this year.
Randy Stephens, then a senior at Wheeling Park High School and the Wheeling Nailers fan to top them all, beat it but was eventually taken from us by the disease last year.
Hines Rotriga, a 2-year-old area resident that you no doubt have heard a lot about, is still to this day battling and we absolutely, positively cannot allow the disease to take him.
Michael Carroll, a Wheeling Park student who battled Leukemia and was diagnosed with a Glioblastoma Grade IV Brain Tumor due to the radiation from the treatments last year, cannot and will not leave us. Not on our watch.
These are just a few of the thousands of heartbreaking stories - not country-wide, but here in the Ohio Valley.
This is a very personal endeavor for me. Not only did we lose my grandfather, but my Dad is a cancer survivor, as are my Mother in-Law and several other family members.
We can put a stop to this with more funding. Every dollar raised hopefully gets us one step closer to finding a cure once and for all.
Far be it for me to tell you how to spend your hard-earned money, so I won't. Chances are you have already seen the affects cancer has on a family, both during and after the battle, and don't need a nudge.
With that being said, I humbly ask for your support at 8 p.m. tomorrow night at Wheeling Park High School.
For the second time I will be playing on the Ohio County Relay for Life Basketball Team as we take on members of the Pittsburgh Steelers, both past and present, who are gracious enough to take time out of their hectic schedules to be a part of a great cause.
I know what you're thinking ... football players attempting to put a ball in a basket? That must be about as fun as watching water polo.
Having first-hand experience, I can tell you it's worth the $7 to see these guys, and that doesn't even account for the free autographs you will have a chance to receive with your price of admission. When I think of a 6-6, 348-pound lineman, I see a guy who is nothing more than big, strong and slow, and whose job description consists of having to go hard for about eight seconds at a time.
Now, I will never be confused with a body builder or a guy who is 'in shape,' but I can tell you that even in the offseason these big, bad Steelers - even the biggest of them - are in a type of physical condition that you can't begin to fathom.
We teach our youth players to box out when a shot goes up, but that's not much help against a guy that moves buildings for a living. If you think they can't run because they do their job in a 5-yard radius, well think again.
Hey, you can come out and jeer me if you like. My household is as pro-Steelers a one as you will find, but my own wife will be rooting against me (I am holding our hope that our three children will want to see Dad's team win again like last year).
The important thing is that we band together in a common fight. No one person - afflicted or affected - can beat this alone.
See you Saturday, and thanks for supporting a great cause.

The event will begin at 3 p.m. with kids, parents and community leaders walking from the front of each school, continuing on around the athletic fields on the sidewalks. Other special activities associated with the walk include taking a final lap around the brand new all-weather track, while enjoying a cool treat. City and county leaders will be on hand to give a proclamation.
Walk to School Day events raise awareness of the need to create safer routes for walking and bicycling and emphasize the importance of issues such as increasing physical activity among children, pedestrian safety, traffic congestion and concern for the environment. The events build connections between families, schools and the broader community.

To the Editor:—
In "Treatment of the Urethral Syndrome in Women" (184:984, 1963), Robert Zufall, MD, described a group of patients with urinary frequency, dysuria, and other symptoms of inflammation of the lower urinary tract in whom corroborative physical and laboratory findings were minimal if not absent altogether. He wrote, "The urethra has been commonly blamed for this syndrome, and many experienced observers find urethral stenosis, edema, hyperemia, granularity, polyps at the neck of the bladder, or exudate on the trigone," but noted himself, "For the majority of patients in this series, diligent search revealed nothing at all different from the urethras, bladder necks, and trigones of patients who were cystoscoped for unrelated conditions, who had no 'urethral' symptoms." About one third of his patients improved for more than 12 weeks with any form of treatment tried, including intramuscular injections of sterile water.To determine quantitatively whether or not

Taco Truck Parks in Boutique Space
Five years ago, Dario Wolos left a finance job to sell tacos out of a converted Volkswagen Kombi in Playa del Carmen. He's brought the concept, hippie van included, to New York with Tacombi @ Fonda Nolita.
The VW van is parked in a former boutique space, out of which cooks dish out tacos like Northern Mexico-style barbacoa (beef short rib) and roast pork on corn tortillas. From another stand, breakfast tacos on flour tortillas with scrambled egg, cactus and homemade chorizo are available all day. The menu, by Food Network chef Aaron Sanchez, will change regularly, Mr. Wolos said.
Tacos are $4, purchased by buying tickets, carnival-style, at a counter separate from the taco stations. In the coming months, look for tamales, dessert, esquites (sweet corn with mayo and chili) and ceviche. Beyond food, events like surf-movie nights are on the menu; free Wi-Fi is a plus for neighborhood freelancers.
"The main business is selling tacos, but the concept is about making a space that is useful all through out the day," Mr. Wolos said. "It's mean to have a community feeling."
Tacombi is at 267 Elizabeth St. between Prince and Houston; 917-727-0179. Breakfast tacos are served from 8 a.m. on; the regular taco menu is served noon until 2 a.m. daily.

INDIANAPOLIS - Baseball is a funny game. That statement was never more true for the Butler baseball team Sunday, as it played a pair of bizarre 7-inning games against Milwaukee at Bulldog Park. BU got a gem from junior Mike Hernandez for a 2-1 win before the two teams played into the day's rainy darkness. The end result was an 11-11 tie in the nightcap, which was called after seven innings.
The doubleheader against the Panthers featured almost everything the game of baseball can provide. Hernandez threw the day's first pitch at 12:47 p.m. Milwaukee's Greg Blohowiak threw the last pitch at 7:59 p.m. There were 31 hits, 11 errors (eight in the second game), a Senior Day ceremony, a 74-minute rain delay, a catcher's interference and weather that was befitting of early March, causing the start of the doubleheader to be delayed.
In the end, Butler finished off a 4-0-1 week and moved up one spot in the Horizon League standings. Four games remain in the regular season, all played in the state of Ohio. BU will go to Cincinnati Tuesday, May 17 before concluding its regular season with three games at Wright State May 19-20.
The wild doubleheader featured two milestones for Butler baseball history. Butler's win was its 1200th as a varsity program, while the tie in the nightcap was the 10th tie in Butler baseball history. The Bulldogs' last tie in baseball was May 11, 1993 in a 3-3 game vs. Valparaiso. That game was also the second of a doubleheader.
Hernandez was the story of the day's first game. The right-hander pitched a complete game, going seven innings and allowing just one run. He took a shutout into the top of the 7th before Milwaukee scratched a run across the plate. Hernandez (4-5) scattered six hits and struck out eight with no walks.
With Hernandez sharp, two runs was all the Dawgs would need. Senior Luke Duncan gave Butler a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the 3rd when he singled and then scored on a sac fly by junior Mike Hoscheit. The game continued to be tight as Hernandez went pitch-for-pitch with Milwaukee's Jordan Guth.
In the bottom of the 6th, senior Kyle Waggoner struck out swinging but would reach first base on a wild pitch. On the same play, freshman Pat Guinane was thrown out trying to advance to third base. After a pitching change, senior Jack Krause smacked a double to right field. Waggoner scored from first on the play to give Butler a 2-0 lead. Milwaukee scored its lone run and threatened in the 7th, but Hernandez slammed the door shut on UWM's comeback.
The second game of the day is where things stopped making sense. Milwaukee led 4-0 in the 4th inning when the game was stopped for a rain delay. Seventy-four minutes later, play resumed. That's when Butler took control.
With Milwaukee leading 6-1, BU exploded for six runs in the bottom of the 5th. The first two batters reached before junior Nick Hladek lifted an RBI double into the gap to make it 6-2. After another walk, Butler had the bases loaded an nobody out when Milwaukee made a pitching change. Junior Griffin Richeson welcomed the new UWM pitcher with an RBI single, leaving the bases loaded still. Butler scored another run on an error moments later to pull within 6-4.
A sac fly by Hoscheit and an RBI single by Guinane concluded the big inning for Butler. Eleven batters went to the plate and now BU owned a 7-6 lead.
With the gray skies and continued rain complicating play, the two teams continued to battle. Each squad scored twice in the 6th, and it became clear just more inning would be played. Butler held on to a 9-8 lead.
A pair of RBI singles by Milwaukee would give UWM a 10-9 lead, and the Panthers added another run in the 7th when Mark Strey scored on a wild pitch. Butler had three outs left, the sky was dark and the Bulldogs trailed 11-9.
Guinane led off the inning with a single and then advanced to second on a groundout. Senior Corey Moylan then walked. After a pitching change and a pinch-hitter chess match involving the two teams' head coaches, Butler got the match-up it wanted. Freshman Zach Sizemore came off the bench and battled through a long at-bat to get on base with a walk. The bases were now loaded with one out.
Sophomore Andrew Eckhardt then flipped a grounder to third base. Milwaukee got a force at home and then the UWM catcher threw to first, but his throw sailed into the right-field bullpen. Butler scored two runs on the error, Eckhardt motored to third base and the game was tied. Sophomore Bob Akin came in as a pinch hitter with the winning run on third but fouled out.
With the score 11-11, Butler was ready to play on to the 8th inning but the game was called due to darkness. A game that lasted 4 hours, 17 minutes ended in a tie.
Guinane led Butler with a 3-for-4 effort. Senior Michael Letzter hit a home run, his team-leading sixth of the season, and senior Grant Fillipitch added three RBIs. Hladek and Richeson each scored two runs. Milwaukee was led by Chad Pierce's 3-for-4 effort while five other Panthers each collected two hits.

Extra Lives: Why Video Games Matter
by Tom Bissell
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Very well written overview of the gaming industry, both the good and the bad. Understandable by both gamers and non-gamers.
For someone who claims that video games matter, Bissell spends a lot of time in a state of ambivalence about games and his relationship to them. (He even has his girlfriends appear at regular intervals as a kind of disdainful Greek chorus, as if his own ambivalence wasn't enough.) I don't think he ever comes out and says why video games matter, and in the end makes a deliberately timed revelation about himself that pretty much seems to be an attempt to make sure his readers become as ambivalent about gaming as he is. Plus he only talks about one small slice of games (console first-person-shooters), which makes this his personal gaming memoir, but absolutely not the broad survey implied in the title. Eh.
But I did really like the first half of the second chapter, where in 2nd person narrative he describes the 'shock of the new' he experienced playing Resident Evil for the first time.
Skimmed most of it. Blog-quality writing. Serious lack of depth and content for someone as snotty as he seems to be. Don't bother reading this one.
Bissell's book spins around gaming narrative; how could a medium that seemingly is rife with plot and storyline be so empty and soulless? He explores this question through nine chapters, most revolving around a particular game such as Grand Theft Auto IV, Fallout 3, and Mass Effect. As the book progresses, Bissell uncovers some answers to his questions, yet continues to posit more. It's an enlightening book. It is EXTREMELY personal to the author, though. You'll hear plenty of references to an assortment of girlfriends he's had over the years, some heavy drug use in the GTA chapter, and other anecdotes. At times the individualism of the book is a tad much; the GTA chapter certainly explores Bissell's attachment to cocaine and GTA during his playtime, but I'm not sure if I needed to go along for that ride. It's peppered with interviews with designers, as well, which is a nice touch. Overall, I enjoyed the book and got some ruminations to ponder from it, and wouldn't mind actually owning a paperback copy to refer to later.
Have you ever had an intelligent conversation about video games? Out of all my friends there is only one who I can talk to in video games that goes beyond the basic "Did you beat (game title here) yet?". When I say intelligent conversation I'm talking about a serious critique of a game. With this one friend I can tell him about that part in Mass Effect when I had to choose between Ashley and Kaidan. They were both pinned down by enemy forces but I could only get to one of them in time. The one I failed to choose would be killed. My jaw hung there as I stared at the screen. To lose a character after spending 20 hours is devastating, let alone having to pick between the two. Sophie's Choice anyone? Anyway, that's the kind of event that I like talking about when it comes to video games. When I try talking about Portal and my relationship with the Companion Cube, he kind of just gives me an unsure glace, not knowing the emotional turmoil I faced before dropping the Companion Cube in to the fire. In all fairness, I probably give him the same look when he talks about the series finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Extra Lives by Tom Bissell is an entire book made up of intelligent essays about video games and the emotion/psychological impact they have on players. He covers all the big games: Grand Theft Auto, Mass Effect, Fallout 3, Far Cry and more. He discusses how players identify with characters they can custom create like in Mass Effect versus characters that are build by the publishes such in Grand Theft Auto IV. It was really interesting because he present ideas and concepts that make sense and seem obvious but had never crossed my mind because I never thought about it in that particular way. This book will appeal to the college student who, in between studying, will take a break for a few quick rounds of Halo. Like Halo, it's easy to lose track of time and you'll find yourself saying "just one more chapter" until hours of have passed and you discover that you've spent your whole day reading/playing video games.
This book was a fond trip down memory lane for me. All the games he talked about I would get distracted thinking about them. The Mass Effect chapter was particularly hard because I have spent many, many, many hours in that game, and I consider it one of my favorites. I can not recommend this book enough. Even if you don't play video games, you're bound to know someone who does and Extra Lives would make a great gift.
"Extra Lives" is a busy, scattered book — a series of essays and pieces of reportage, several of them previously published — that lacks a narrative or a sustained argument. The book scurries around like Mario, the industrious plumber in Super Mario Brothers, hopping over low brick walls. Very often it's as dull as someone telling you his dreams. A more accurate subtitle might have been, "You Had to Be There."

Wikipedia in English (7)
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0307378705, Hardcover)Tom Bissell is a prizewinning writer who published three widely acclaimed books before the age of thirty-four. He is also an obsessive gamer who has spent untold hours in front of his various video game consoles, playing titles such as Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, BioShock, and Oblivion for, literally, days. If you are reading this flap copy, the same thing can probably be said of you, or of someone you know.
Until recently, Bissell was somewhat reluctant to admit to his passion for games. In this, he is not alone. Millions of adults spend hours every week playing video games, and the industry itself now reliably outearns Hollywood. But the wider culture seems to regard video games as, at best, well designed if mindless entertainment.
Extra Lives is an impassioned defense of this assailed and misunderstood art form. Bissell argues that we are in a golden age of gaming—but he also believes games could be even better. He offers a fascinating and often hilarious critique of the ways video games dazzle and, just as often, frustrate. Along the way, we get firsthand portraits of some of the best minds (Jonathan Blow, Clint Hocking, Cliff Bleszinski, Peter Molyneux) at work in video game design today, as well as a shattering and deeply moving final chapter that describes, in searing detail, Bissell's descent into the world of Grand Theft Auto IV, a game whose themes mirror his own increasingly self-destructive compulsions.
Blending memoir, criticism, and first-rate reportage, Extra Lives is like no other book on the subject ever published. Whether you love video games, loathe video games, or are merely curious about why they are becoming the dominant popular art form of our time, Extra Lives is required reading.

Soooo, I took some hamburger out for dinner yesterday, then couldn't decide whether to make a meatloaf or burgers or whatever. I found a recipe for cheeseburger meatloaf. Lightbulb!!
Now, because I hardly ever follow directions...shocked i'm sure...I read them over and then decided I would create my own version. Thus, Cheesy Meatloaf Awesomeness was born.
Here's how to do it:
Get a big 'ol bowl.
Dump into it:
*garlic pepper
*dried green and red bell peppers (if you have them)
*diced up onion
How much? However much you feel like.
Squish your beef into it. I find this part disgusting, I hate raw meat. I do it anyway because..well..who the hell else is going to do it?
In the recipe I read, they got all fancy with wax paper and rolling up the meatloaf with the cheese inside. I don't have time for all that jazz.
Slap half the meat into your meatloaf baking device of choice. Make a little well down the middle.
Time for cheese! I used some shredded cheddar and a few slices of white american.
Once it's sufficiently cheesed, give it a meat hat with the other half. Crimp it all together so the cheese can't escape.
I squirted some BBQ sauce on the top. You could use ketchup, or whatever you feel like.
Cover it with foil. (I took the foil off towards the end so the meat went from that icky color to nice and brown.)
I cooked it at 375 degrees for like an hour or so.
About halfway through I made my husband come in and dump some of the grease out of the pan. It was his contribution to preparing dinner.
To be honest I didn't pay attention how long it took. I've developed that mom-o-meter that can somehow get all the food done at the same time, know what i'm talking about? It's like a superpower.
I didn't take any pictures, so you'll have to use some imagination. But, it was really good. Really, really good.
*I received TWO versatile blogger awards, what an great surprise to wake up to! Thank you soooo much ladies, now I know what i'll be posting tomorrow!

I know there are A LOT of similar or the same questions, but i still cannot understand / find the right way for me to work with modules. Python is my favorite language, and i like everything in it except working with imports: recursive imports (when you try to reference a name that is not yet there), import paths, etc.
So, I have this kind of a project structure:
Package1 may be used a standalone unit, but is also expected to be imported by
What am i doing now, is that, for example, in
package1.module1 i write
from package1 import module2, i.e. using full path to imported module. I do this because if i use
import module2 -- this will not work when the module will be imported from another package (
package2). I also cannot use
from . import module2 -- this will not work when running
module1 directly.
OK, so for
from package1 import module2 in
package1.module1 to work in both cases (when running directly
package1.module1 and when importing it from
package2) i add these lines at the beginning of
import os, sys
currDir = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
rootDir = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(currDir, '..'))
if rootDir not in sys.path: # add parent dir to paths
For me this works, but i feel this is not pythonic. Am i doing something wrong?
Should i, instead, always run
package1.module1 from project root? If so, this makes inconvenient to run it from an IDE -- i need somehow to set paths in it.
UPDATE: I tried to add a file
root.pth to
package1 dir with contents of
... But it didn't work -- i guess it's intended for something else.
Always use absolute imports:
import package1.module1
Add a bootstrapper to the root folder to start some of the modules as a standalone script. This solves running the script form an IDE and is a pythonic approach.
On 4/22/07, Brett Cannon wrote:
This PEP is to change the
if __name__ == "__main__": ...idiom to
if __name__ == sys.main: ...so that you at least have a chance to execute module in a package that use relative imports.
Ran this PEP past python-ideas. Stopped the discussion there when too many new ideas were being proposed. =) I have listed all of them in the Rejected Ideas section, although if overwhelming support for one comes forward the PEP can shift to one of them.
I'm -1 on this and on any other proposed twiddlings of the
machinery. The only use case seems to be running scripts that happen
to be living inside a module's directory, which I've always seen as an
antipattern. To make me change my mind you'd have to convince me that
it isn't.

What is the difference between malloc() and HeapAlloc()? As far as I understand malloc allocates memory from the heap, just as HeapAlloc, right?
So what is the difference?
You are right that they both allocate memory from a heap. But there are differences:
It's quite possible that, on Windows,
For almost all coding scenarios you would use
Actually, malloc() (and other C runtime heap functions) are module dependant, which means that if you call malloc() in code from one module (i.e. a DLL), then you should call free() within code of the same module or you could suffer some pretty bad heap corruption (and this has been well documented). Using HeapAlloc() with GetProcessHeap() instead of malloc(), including overloading new and delete operators to make use of such, allow you to pass dynamically allocated objects between modules and not have to worry about memory corruption if memory is allocated in code of one module and freed in code of another module once the pointer to a block of memory has been passed across to an external module.
With Visual C++, the function
The function
I cannot comment on performance because I have not benchmarked the
The latter lets you specify the heap to allocate from, which I imagine can be useful for avoiding serialization of allocation requests in different threads (note the
Cheers & hth.,
This is what MS has to say about it: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa366533(v=vs.85).aspx
One thing one one mentioned thus far is: "The malloc function has the disadvantage of being run-time dependent. The new operator has the disadvantage of being compiler dependent and language dependent."
Also, "HeapAlloc can be instructed to raise an exception if memory could not be allocated"
So if you want your program to run with any CRT, or perhaps no CRT at all, you'd use HeapAlloc. Perhaps only people who would do such thing would be malware writers. Another use might be if you are writing a very memory intensive application with specific memory allocation/usage patterns that you'd rather write your own heap allocator instead of using a CRT one.

Watch Snoop Dogg And Kate Upton Sing About Hot Pockets
By Jessica Rawden 3 years ago
Sometimes ads go out of the way to be funny or classic or arty. Other times companies are just trying to come up with a concept that gets people talking. This seems to be the philosophy of the new Hot Pockets ad, which doubles as a four-minute music video and features Kate Upton and Snoop Dogg, who is billed that way by the microwaveable edible brand, so Im assuming Snoop Lion is a thing of the past.
In the advertisement, we spend some time with Upton, who is sitting on the bed and enjoying a hot pocket in its entirety. We get to watch as she actually eats the whole thing, rather than faking it like most people do during commercials or on television. She seems to be enjoying the heck out of that Hot Pocket, but thats probably how Id feel, too, if I were consuming over half of my daily allotted quality of sodium in one sitting.
Then, things get a little weird. Someone, somewhere rewrote the lyrics to You Got What I Need, changing them to the cringeworthy, You Got What I Eat. Then Upton and Snoop Dogg travel into a dreamscape, where flying sheep sing backup vocals and oregano and other spices pop out of the ground to make the best Hot Pockets on the market. Snoops got a whole rap to explain the warm, gooey goodness of Hot Pockets, and at one point, Upton throws on a sort of Moulin Rouge costume and lip syncs the lyrics to the chorus on the piano. Dont worry, though, the actual vocals during this part come from Biz Markie, who actually wrote the original, less sucky version of the song. Then, just to make things even weirder, the brand opts to cut to some weird actors in costumes who do their own raps as the Hot Pocket bakers.
You would think viewers would get some time to breath at this point, but this commercial/video keeps going. Theres an animated segment and another chorus with Biz Markie hollering about how he love(s) that buttery crust. To round things out, Larry King even pops up wearing some bling. Its pretty strange, but also strangely catchy. Thats probably exactly what Hot Pockets was hoping for. Since the video dropped on October 7, its already gotten over half a million YouTube hits. It has also capably gotten me thinking about Hot Pockets for the first time since I lived in a college dorm.
This isnt the first time Hot Pockets has attempted this sort of advertising, and its not the first time Snoop Dogg was involved. Back in 2012, the brand put together Pocket like its Hot, based on the popular Snoop song. At least Upton seems to be enjoying herself.

Apple, Google, Agree To Drop Patent Infringement Dispute
Apple and Google have agreed to drop perhaps the highest-profile lawsuit in high-tech, ending litigation over smartphone patents.
"Apple and Google have agreed to dismiss all the current lawsuits that exist directly between the two companies," the tech giants said in a joint statement on Friday. The two firms added that they "have also agreed to work together in some areas of patent reform."
"The dismissed suits involve patent disputes regarding Google's Motorola Mobility handset unit. The deal doesn't include Apple's ongoing patent battles with Samsung Electronics Co., which uses Google's Android software for mobile devices."
"The most high-profile case between Apple and Motorola began in 2010. Motorola accused Apple of infringing several patents, including one essential to how cell phones operate on a 3G network, while Apple said Motorola violated its patents to certain smartphone features.
"The cases were consolidated in a Chicago federal court. However, Judge Richard Posner dismissed it in 2012 shortly before trial, saying neither company had sufficient evidence to prove its case."

ROSEVILLE, Mich. (AP) - Police investigating a claim that former Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa is buried in a suburban Detroit backyard say testing on soil samples shows no traces of human decomposition.
The test results were announced Tuesday. Police have taken down the yellow tape roping off the entrance to the Roseville yard.
Soil samples were removed Friday after officials drilled through the floor of a shed north of Detroit. Roseville police Chief James Berlin has said the ground would be excavated if decomposition were found in the samples.
Hoffa last was seen July 30, 1975, outside a restaurant in Oakland County, more than 30 miles to the west. The day he disappeared, Hoffa was supposed to meet with a New Jersey Teamsters boss and a Detroit mafia captain.

Kooling Down at Sunrise MarketPlace
Kool & the Gang, along with fellow R&B legends The Commodores, played to a very enthusiastic crowd of close to 2,000 fans Saturday night at Sunrise MarketPlace's Sunrise at Night Concert Series.
This is the first year with an expanded venue at Sunrise MarketPlace, and my first time visiting. It was spacious with beer, wine, and Margaritas available along with various food choices such as hotdogs. Depending on where you were seated, you could be lazy and have a waiter/waitress get your drinks.
I found the sound lacking on the side bleachers, but still pretty loud. If you're one of those purists who must have their sound just right, then you may want to get your tickets for the center area.
There really isn't a bad seat in the house with a great view from pretty much any seat in the amphitheater. There are a few seats around the spotlights that may feel "cramped" if you are sitting right next to the platform, but that area is general admission and you can sit where you want – so don't sit next to the lights, unless you think that's Kool.
Many amphitheaters have monitors, or big projector screens for the cheap seats, but with such a small footprint fans didn't have a problem seeing the action onstage.
Ok enough about the venue and on to the action, and there was plenty of action, with the exception of an overly long set-change.
Just prior to the concert someone came up to me and said he almost didn't come out to the concert after he found out that Lionel Richie was no longer with The Commodores. Seriously!? Where have you been for the last 30 years!? Richie is gone people, get over it.
The Commodores stormed the stage playing "Too Hot Ta Trot," followed by "Easy" with most fans on their feet and singing along. As for the great seating, that all goes down the proverbial crapper when everyone in front of you stands up to boogie down.
The three front men for The Commodores put on a high energy show and were in constant motion their entire set. They were founding members Walter Orange, William King, and longtime member J.D. Nicholas.
They headed into their encore with "Brick House," but deviated in the middle with a bit of audience participation as they were simply jamming and yelling out to the audience with phrases such as "Say Yo Yo," leading back into, and finishing off the set with, "Brick House."
Walter Orange was kicking himself after their set. He told me he just wasn't "feeling it" during his performance. Orange said it doesn't happen too often, but when it does, it really bothers him because he believes he can bring it up to a whole other level.
The set-change went way too long. According to my calculations, it took over 45 minutes, which is not a good thing for the fans, as some headed towards the door.
Making a very Kool entrance Kool & the Gang, all dressed in white, came out singing "Fresh," followed by "Tonight." The crowd was pretty enthusiastic, but appeared to have more energy during The Commodores set. I attribute that to the lengthy intermission.
As they slowed it down with "Joanna" and "Too Hot," most of the fans were singing the chorus along with the band. However, during the slower moments you could see a number of fans heading towards the door.
Kool & the Gang didn't really hit their stride until late into their set. The vocals were lacking in the beginning songs, but seemed to smooth out as the night went on.
They really shined with "Get Down on It" leading into their finale with "Celebration," which had the remaining crowd on their feet dancing and singing.
It was a great concert, but whenever you have 30 minutes, or longer, for a set-change you're going to lose some people. In this case Kool & the Gang wasn't able to reenergize a number of their fans. I believe that impacted their performance, since bands and fans alike feed off each other's energy.
As for the Sunrise at Night Concert Series – What can I say? It's a nice little venue with an intimate feel and free parking, but more importantly they serve food and have a limited selection of alcohol, just be careful driving home!
Don't miss Blondie and Devo as they bring their Whip it to Shreds tour to the Sunrise MarketPlace on Friday September 14th.

A new survey highlights the places around the world where it is especially bad to be a woman, produced by the recently launched TrustLaw website, a product of the Thomson Reuters Foundation that is aimed at being "a global centre for free legal assistance and a hub of news and information on anti-corruption issues, good governance and women's legal rights."
The survey was conducted among gender experts on five continents, and they rated each country's overall danger to women, as well as health threats, sexual violence, non-sexual violence, cultural or religious factors, lack of access to resources and trafficking.
The survey, polled 213 women's rights experts on what they consider to be the world's worst place to be a woman.
The results are in, and topping the is Afghanistan, followed by DR Congo, Pakistan,Somalia and India, based on a variety of factors including rape and violence, lack of health services, poverty and human trafficking.
According to the poll, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which ranked second on the list of the worst places to be a woman, an on going war has featured a brutal and strategic campaign of sexual violence targeted at women, from toddlers to the elderly.
In addition to conflict-related violence, which is largely associated with the easternmost provinces, a recent
analysis of a 2007 household survey finds more than 1,100 women are raped every day in the Congo, nationwide. This tally accounts for both domestic violence and conflict-associated rapes; spousal rape is not criminalized in the DRC.
While Afghanistan was cited for its overall level of violence, there are a host of other factors that caused TrustLaw to put it atop the list. One in 11 women there have a chance of dying in childbirth; Some 87 percent of women are illiterate; and as many as 80 percent of girls face forced marriages.
The inclusion of economic discrimination as a form of violence is of particular note; although women comprise 70 percent of the DR Congo's poor (which is widely acknowledged to be a violation of human rights and dignity), it is not always remembered as a form of violence.
The survey's authors suggest that a lack of access to economic, health and educational resources posed just as great a threat to women around the world as anything else.
Elisabeth Roesch, who works on gender-based violence for the International Rescue Committee, told TrustLaw: "When you actually allow women and girls to express themselves, these are the problems they cite: 'We can't go to school. We can't make enough money to support our families. We can't access the local health clinic, either because our husband won't allow us or it's inaccessible.' These are real problems."

You've probably heard the common adage that light snacking is a smart dieting strategy, preventing you from getting too hungry and going overboard at your next meal. But in truth the research has been inconclusive, with some studies supporting snacking and others suggesting that munching between meals promotes weight gain rather than weight loss. Now new research suggests that timing could be key to whether snacks help or hurt when dieting.
Postmenopausal women who were overweight or obese were instructed to consume between 1,200 and 2,000 calories per day, with the exact figure depending on each woman's starting weight…and to keep daily food diaries, noting what they ate or drank and when. Participants also received nutrition counseling but no specific advice on snacking and meal make-up.
At the end of the yearlong study, researchers found that snacking was nearly universal, with 97% of participants reporting having at least one snack per day and upwards of 80% having more than one snack per day. Surprisingly, the frequency of snacking didn't matter—what did make a difference was the time of day when snacking occurred. Results…
- Midmorning (10:30 to 11:29 am). Women who regularly allowed themselves a midmorning snack lost an average of 7% of their body weight—while those who did not snack between breakfast and lunch did much better, losing almost 12% of their body weight, on average.
- Midafternoon (2:00 to 5:29 pm). Women who snacked between lunch and dinner lost slightly less weight than women who did not snack at this time. Curiously, though, the afternoon nibble conferred nutritional advantages, with these snackers consuming significantly more fruits, vegetables and fiber than women who did not snack in the afternoon.
- Evening (9:00 pm to midnight). After-dinner snackers lost a little bit more weight than those who skipped the evening snack. (Researchers declined to speculate on the reason for that.)
Why was the midmorning munch a problem when snacking at other times of the day was OK? Researchers suggested that, since there are usually only a few hours between breakfast and lunch, women who snacked in the morning did so not because they were actually hungry, but because they were bored and eating gave them something to do…or because they wanted to socialize (coffee and a quick bite, anyone?).
For better dieting success: Declare the morning hours a snack-free zone, and limit your snacking to afternoon and/or evening. Snack only when you're truly hungry, and then stick with proteins, such as low-fat yogurt or a small handful of nuts…fruits and nonstarchy veggies…whole grains…or calorie-free drinks, such as coffee or tea.

Definition of Beverly Hills diet
Beverly Hills diet: The Beverly Hills diet is a weight loss plan based upon the premise that eating certain fruits leads to chemical reactions in the body that enhance weight loss. Only fruit is consumed for the first period (usually 10 days) on this diet, and then carbohydrates (on day 11) and protein (on day 19) are permitted. The Beverly Hills diet has not been recommended by medical professionals as a weight loss plan and is not considered a healthy way to lose weight.

Last season: 57-25
Coach: Mike Brown (first year, 57-25)
Overview: Amid all the Clippermania, the Lakers are not done. It might look bleak with Lamar Odom gone, Kobe Bryant's injured wrist and ailing knees, Pau Gasol's fragile state, Derek Fisher's age and a new coach. Yet, this is when Bryant does his best work, especially figuring that more off-court drama will lock in his focus again. Steve Blake was a nice addition last year -- not a triangle fit, but perhaps he returns to form this season. Once he gets past a four-game suspension, Andrew Bynum will get a chance show off how efficient his post game has become. The bench needs a boost and might get it from Devin Ebanks with some Trevor Ariza-like possibilities.
Last season: 32-50
Coach: Vinny Del Negro (second year, 32-50)
Overview: Lob City is on the map. If not for a sometimes detestable owner, the Clippers would be unavoidably loveable. They have remade their image in one offseason -- adding Chris Paul, Chauncey Billups and Caron Butler while re-signing DeAndre Jordan. Overpaying Jordan $43 million over four years was essential on two fronts -- he cleans up the Clippers' defensive vulnerability and he keeps budding superstar Blake Griffin happy. If Griffin adds more basketball acumen to his crazy highlight ability, the Clippers will be a West contender. Moving to off-guard fits Billups' skill at this point of his career and gives the Clippers a clutch performer. The jury is out on Del Negro's coaching but he is overloaded with talent now that Ryan Gomes and Mo Williams are reserves instead of starters.
Last season: 36-46
Coach: Mark Jackson (first year)
Overview: The Warriors have been young and fun, but Jackson is going to demand more defense. That started with trying to get Tyson Chandler or DeAndre Jordan at center. Each failed, leaving Andris Biedrins in the role unless sophomore Epke Udoh continues to come on. It is a team of 20-somethings that will be helped by a home-heavy early schedule and a year of the Monta Ellis-Stephen Curry backcourt. Ellis and Curry have to defend better in a smallish backcourt and Wright will need to try to at least repeat a breakthrough season. David Lee is a solid scorer and rebounder at power forward but the Warriors do not have anyone for high-percentage scoring in the lane.
Last season: 24-58
Coach: Paul Westphal (third year, 49-115)
Overview: There is a lot of upside in the Kings' anchor players, Tyreke Evans and DeMarcus Cousins, but both still have much to prove in production and dedication. Evans should return to his Rookie of the Year form after recovering from a foot injury that robbed his explosiveness. As a rookie, Evans was able to drive where he wanted but did not show playmaker instincts. Sacramento dealt its best floor general, Beno Udrih, to return John Salmons, who gives Sacramento two good defensive wings with Travis Outlaw's acquisition. Sacramento has a scoring machine in Marcus Thornton, who it re-signed after he averaged 21.3 points for the Kings after coming from New Orleans. Jimmer Fredette gives Sacramento a flat-out scorer who needs to be hidden defensively. The Kings have more maturity to experience before making a leap and that might be too late for Westphal to enjoy.

I know a lot of people around here thought that ISU was in a better spot than Iowa a few weeks ago. I'm wondering with the loss of three starters and Buckley, if people still think that is the case.
Also wondering if Barta pulling the trigger on Lick has swayed anyone as to what Pollard should do with McDermott. I know you never make decisions based on what someone else does, but given the similarities between the programs at this time, I think it's an apt comparison.
We weren't as bad off this season as iowa was... our last regular season game was a win over a top 10 team, while they were setting records for biggest losses in program history..
Once mcdermott sets a record for most losses in a season at ISU, then it'll be comparable
Iowa team and recruits are now fair game?
Let Prohm's Posse Ride: Hallice, Brady, Stu, Lard, Naz, Deonte, Monte, Matt, Simeon, Jordan, and Babb.
Looks to me that Barta has more guts to admit his mistakes after 3 years than our A/D does after 4 years....
Can I wait to vote after I see how their coaching search goes? If it's similar to ISU circa 2002 and they get tuned down by their first 4 options it may not get much better for them.
I'm not overly worried about them being "1 year ahead" because afterall, GMac was one year ahead of Lick, and that isn't working out so hot.
I'm on Twitter: @khaal53
I don't really want any of their recruits.

I agree, especially with your last statement. We weren't good this year, in fact, we were bad, but we were a long, long way from being 10-22. That is just dismal. That is why I think we're still ahead of Iowa.
Depending on whom EIU hires eventually.
Was Lick the first choice when they hired him ? Can EIU hire a big-name coach or a bright young star ?
What University of Iowa does should have no impact on what we do. Each program has different problems that ultimately made their decisions. Mainly money was a big one as we cannot afford it and Iowa can (just base of their department budget). Also, Barta is probably worried that only 2000 people actually show up to their games. Our estimates are 6000-7000 towards the end of the season(a little worrying, but nothing compared to Iowas attendance).

No. They are all signed.
I think that Iowa was in a better position actually. They had good freshman this year and Gatens and are bringing in some good young recruits for next year. We lost Staiger, Brackins, Gilstrap, and Hamilton this year. All starters at the beginning of the year, and are bringing in probably 4 jucos this year. With so many defections and juco players it is hard to build a program. This was a very good year for Iowa State to fire McD because we lose so much, but unfortunately we couldn't do it because of money. Iowa on the other hand has the money to buy out their coach. The money i think is the biggest difference because you can argue both sides regarding who is worse off but the fact is they are both in a pretty bad state.

There's still a good chance the university will allow them to break their LOIs. At least that's what usually happens when coaches are canned.
Because Lick and GMac are "State" employees, could we just swap them and call it even. Sort of like Lick transfer to the ISU branch and GMac transfer to the Iowa City branch? Just a thought, at least Lick doesn't have the Huge contract to buy out.

Gatens it the only one worth going for on their roster. But he's an Iowa City guy so no chance in that.
