hahaha, i loved the beginning. the guitar is awesome, the drumkits are awesome, the piano is awesome! i love metal, and this is probably the best metal song that i have heard on NG. dude, its been a long time since ive reviewed your music, but kep up the amazing work! what program do you use? i forgot.
I'm glad you liked this song. A lot of work was put into this. All the guitar you hear was recorded, and then eq'd later on in Wavpad, and Reason. That answers your last question, I use reason 4.0 for my work, and wavpad to record most of my guitar.
Once again man, glad you liked it, thanks for the review! :D

Rated 5 / 5 stars

Hahaha, awesome!
I used a drum kit from Sonic Reality, tis a pretty cool one I think. The first set of drums were just run through a filter.
I'm super glad you liked it :D
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Really nice playing, and all the electronic additions were awesome. I especially loved the piano :) Nice FX to build suspense and filters made the song move around nicely. Very good job, to say the absolute least.
The piano had a lot of time put into it, I wanted it to fit, I think I got it, and it appears you did to.
The FX Build was actually one of yours, thanks :D - Rotisserie Chicken.
I'll have more to come as always, I love producing this stuff man. It's so fun :D

The Cleveland Cavaliers began their five-game road trip with three straight losses and it seemed like it would take a great performance from the young Cavaliers in order to get that first win of the trip against the Portland Trailblazers, despite a three-game losing streak. As it turned out, Cleveland was able to win, 93-88, even though they played pretty poorly.
The first half was not bad for the Cavaliers who had a 26-21 lead after the first quarter and pulled away to be up by 17 at halftime. It was that dreaded third quarter where Cleveland attempted to throw the game away yet again. They lost the third quarter by eight, but it was not until later in the fourth that they gave up the lead. This time though, the Cavaliers responded with an 8-2 run that carried them the rest of the way and secured the win.
What made the performance so poor was the shooting of both teams. Cleveland won, despite shooting 38.6% from the field and 23.5% from three-point range. They were also outrebounded 54-40, with the tide really turning in the Trailblazers' favor in the second half. The Cavaliers did have a big advantage with points in the paint, where they outscored Portland 42-26.
As usual, it was Kyrie Irving who kept Cleveland alive and made sure the team did not let things get away late. He began the fourth quarter on the bench, but the Cavaliers were not able to score without him. Once he came back into the game, he turned into Mr. Fourth Quarter once again. At times the second-year player player was forced to go one-on-five, yet some how managed to score when needed.
Irving finished the game with 31 points and five assists and helped his team keep control of the ball with only eight team turnovers, compared to 19 by the Trailblazers. Tristan Thompson finished with 19 points and 14 rebounds, seven offensive, but was not as effective in the second half as he was in the first. While Irving was on the bench in the final period, Thompson had a chance to score Cleveland's first points at the line and stop Portland's run, but missed both.
Tyler Zeller scored 11 points, but came one rebound shy of a double-double. C.J. Miles only managed eight points as a starter, while Luke Walton had seven points, four rebounds, and three assists coming off the bench.
The Trailblazers really struggled shooting the ball as well, especially early in the game. They allowed the Cavaliers to open such a big lead by continuously missing open shots.
Nicholas Batum led Portland in scoring with 23, but was 8-of-17 on the night, including 3-of-9 from three-point range. Wesley Matthews scored 17 points, had six rebounds, and three assists, while LaMarcus Aldridge had 15 and 10 rebounds. The likely Rookie of the Year, if the season were to end today, Damian Lillard, struggled for much of the game, but ended with 13 points.
Former Cavaliers J.J. Hickson and Sasha Pavlovich did not manage great games against their former team. Hickson scored 13 points and had 11 rebounds, but missed two crucial passes towards the end of the game. Pavlovich did not record any stats and only played just under six minutes.
This not only gave Cleveland their first win of this trip, but ended a four-game road losing streak. The road trip continues on Saturday as the Cavaliers take on the Utah Jazz, looking to start a win streak.Tags: Basketball, C.J. Miles, Cleveland, Cleveland Cavaliers, Damian Lillard, J.J.

Over the weekend, Cris Carter was one of five people inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame; Carter entered the Hall as a long-time member of the Minnesota Vikings. Over 20 years ago, he was recruited to come play for the New York Giants by someone he was enshrined with on Saturday, Bill Parcells.
It was the 1990 season and Carter had been waived by the Philadelphia Eagles and the then-Giants head coach had interest in adding Carter to a receiving group that included Stephen Baker and Mark Ingram. Parcells called Carter once he hit the waiver wire and asked him how long it would take for him to get to Giants Stadium because he was going to claim him off waivers.
At the time, Carter, a 25-year-old who was just getting started in the league, definitely showed interest in coming to the Giants, as he recalled from the process that happened 23 years ago.
"Coach, it would take me a couple of hours. I'll pack a bag. I'm right here in Cherry Hill (New Jersey). Let me talk to my wife. I'll be right there," said Carter.
However, Parcells called Carter back about 20 minutes later to tell him that he would not be joining the Giants, but instead, the Vikings. The Vikings and Giants were the only two teams who made a claim on Carter, as Jarrett Bell of USA Today wrote over the weekend during the induction weekend, but because the Vikings that year had a worse record, they were awarded Carter over the Giants.
Carter went on to have a Hall of Fame career, as he caught 1,101 passes for 13,899 yards and 80 touchdowns and played the next 12 seasons with the Vikings. He played his last season in the league with the Miami Dolphins in 2002 before retiring.
That phone call that Parcells made to Carter always stuck with him and gave him the motivation he needed to excel in the league.
"To me, it put wind under my sails," Carter recalled. "When I was at the darkest point in my life, it gave me some confidence that I could play some ball. When Buddy Ryan told me I couldn't play, Bill Parcells told me I could play
Carter had been released by the Eagles and their then-head coach Buddy Ryan due to his problems with alcohol, specifically ecstasy and marijuana. Once Carter got to Minnesota, his career took off and was able to establish himself as a premier wide receiver in the league who lead the league in touchdowns three separate times while making eight Pro Bowls.
If Carter had been a member of the Giants, who knows how his career would have gone. But after finding out that Parcells made a strong attempt to land him back in 1990, it is quite fitting that Parcells and Carter end up in the Hall of Fame together as the Class of 2013.

Maia made these two large paper dolls over a week ago and I've been meaning to post about them earlier, but between taking care of a sick toddler and then getting sick myself, I am just now getting to it.
The doll on the left is decorated with a coffee filter snowflake and sequins.
The paper doll on the right is actually a mask she made for Daphne, complete with holes for the eyes and mouth and a band to hold it on her head. It's decorated with three bells and includes a red tissue paper popsicle (on a real popsicle stick).
Maia has always been into scissors, tape, and the stapler, but in the last few weeks she's taken her paper art to a whole new level. She's gone through an entire package of construction paper and has been cutting, taping, stapling, and gluing nonstop.
Besides the paper dolls, she's made hats, a house, books, lift-the-flap art, paper fans, and abstract sculptures.
Here Maia and Daphne are gluing sequins onto colored paper.
And here are the kid-made paper dolls on the other art table.
As you can see, the studio has been getting a lot of use already, although it's not much closer to being finished than the last time I posted about it.
Daphne LOVES her paper doll. The mask didn't stay up on her face, but she spent half the day walking around with it dangling from her neck.
In the photo on the right, you can see that Maia made loops for Daphne's hands, too. It's so fun to watch Maia explore art materials and techniques on her own.
What are your kids into right now?

Veteran Scream Queen Danielle Harris's first directing gig, Among Friends has secured a US distribution deal with Lionsgate Home Entertainment.
From the Press Release:
Grindstone Entertainment has picked up US rights to Three Little Birds Productions' Among Friends, the directorial debut of veteran Scream Queen Danielle Harris (Halloween, The Last Boy Scout) and will be released by Lionsgate Home Entertainment.
The deal was brokered by Aspect / Chiller CEO Hugh Edwards and Grindstone's Head of Acquisitions Stan Wertlieb.
"As a longtime fan of Danielle Harris, I eagerly anticipated her directorial debut; and she has really made a disturbing horror statement. One to remember and take note of," says Wertlieb. Edwards added, "It's fitting that after years of being in front of the camera, in a solid string of horror movies, opposite the likes of genre greats such as Michael Biehn, Brad Dourif and Malcolm McDowell, Danielle Harris' directorial debut feature will get its domestic release with Lionsgate Home Entertainment through Grindstone".
"We're excited to be bringing Among Friends to domestic fans through such distinguished companies," says producer Athena Lobit (The Things We Carry). Writer and star Alyssa Lobit chimes in, "We've been on an amazing international festival tour, playing at Sitges, Dedfest, Horrorthon and Lund Fantastisk. What great news to come home to!" Producer and star Jennifer Blanc-Biehn (The Victim, The Divide) says, "I'm so proud to be working with such strong, determined women and happy to present that package through Grindstone/Lionsgate."
Having wanted to make the jump into the director's seat for quite some time, Danielle Harris mirrors her team's enthusiasm: "This is the perfect home for 'Among Friends' and I'm honored to have such well-respected distributors supporting me on my first feature behind the camera. This is just the beginning of many more to come!"
Among Friends is a horror comedy about a dinner party gone wrong. Set against an 80s backdrop, good times take a dark turn when one in the group hijacks the evening in the name of Integrity. Through an attempt to help the others come clean about
secret betrayals against one another, it's revealed who's willing to cut through the bone to expose the truth. Starring Christopher Backus, Jennifer Blanc, AJ Bowen, Dana Daurey, Brianne Davis, Kane Hodder, Kamala Jones, Alyssa Lobit and Chris Meyer.
Shot in 2011, Among Friends is Executive Produced by Jay Lobit (Three Little Birds Productions) and William Allison (Hollywood Treasures, Inc.). Producers are repped by Jennifer Gray and Elsa Ramo; Alyssa Lobit is repped by Adam Trahan at Artist International Management.

- Pennsylvania Governor
Insist that the General Assembly bring House Bill 1013 to your desk for your signature prior to October 15.
Pennsylvania is widely known as one of the most restrictive states in the nation in regard to governmental oversight of homeschooling, second only to New York State. Pennsylvania's homeschooling laws were originally written in the 1980s, when homeschooling was a new and largely unchartered territory. Since that time, study after study has established homeschooling as a popular and effective educational option. These studies also indicate that homeschoolers in low-regulation, mid-regulation, and high-regulation states (such as Pennsylvania and New York) all perform approximately equally in standardized testing, and in every case outperform public school testing results.
House Bill 1013 will improve homeschooling conditions in Pennsylvania by removing the redundant requirement that school district superintendents review annual portfolios for every homeschool student in their district. These portfolios are already required to be evaluated by an evaluator who meets the requirements of the Pennsylvania Home Education law.
House Bill 1013 will also provide homeschool families, with the approval of the portfolio evaluator, the opportunity to issue a state-certified high school diploma. Currently, parent-issued high school diplomas are not considered legal diplomas, even if the student meets or exceeds the lengthy list of requirements set forth in Pennsylvania's own homeschool laws.
Therefore, we the undersigned urge Governor Corbett to insist that the Pennsylvania House and Pennsylvania Senate bring House Bill 1013 to his desk for his signature prior to October 15.

Makeover Peach Bowl Pizza
Recipe by Shelby Jo
This is from Healthy Cooking magazine, June/July 2009. It looks like the perfect summertime sweet treat.
Top Review by ImPat
I scaled this back for 8 slices but made the mistake of trying to form the mix into a circle on the tray (lined with baking paper), it really needs the mix to go to the edge of the tray to cook and set properly or as what happened to me I ended up with the edge crumbling away but the end result was still fantastic. I used a sugar substitute in step one and used half sugar substitube and confecters sugar (icing sugar) in step 2 because of diatery reasons but ran out of substitute and so had to add the sugar but my big problem was that the dozen peaches I had purchased 3 days before had been all eaten so I had to use canned peaches but honestly think this dessert could work with a mirriard of fruits that are in season, to mind comes streawberries, or nectarines or plumbs to name a few. thank you Shelby Jo, made for Photo Tag game.

Crescendo Bioscience
to Present New Data on Vectra® DA Use to Assess Radiographic Progression Risk in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis Treated With Traditional and Biologic Therapies at the
European League Against Rheumatism Annual Meeting (EULAR)
Staying up-to-date has never been simpler. Sign up for the
free GenePool newsletter
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., June 12, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crescendo Bioscience, a molecular diagnostics company dedicated to developing and commercializing quantitative blood tests for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other auto-immune diseases, announced today that it will present data from ten different studies that further support the important role Vectra® DA can play in managing Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) at the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Annual Meeting held in Madrid, Spain, on June 12-15. EULAR is the largest gathering of rheumatology healthcare professionals in Europe. Vectra DA is an objective, validated blood test that provides rheumatologists with a score of 1-100, giving biological insight into the level of disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis. Data presented at EULAR will demonstrate Vectra DA's ability to assess risk of radiographic progression (joint damage over time) in patients with RA currently treated with traditional and biologic agents, including TNF inhibitors. In addition, data will show how Vectra DA can detect a high level of RA disease activity in patients with a low C-reactive protein (CRP) without being affected by fibromyalgia, a painful non-inflammatory condition that can co-exist with RA.

Lenovo has revealed three new Android Ice Cream Sandwich tablets in Berlin – a 10-inch, nine-inch and seven-inch model.
The IdeaPad S2110A is the new flagship model, a 10-inch model that comes complete with an optional keyboard dock, something we're now well used to (the number of dockable/keyboard tablets at IFA has far outweighed those without). As with the new Asus Vivo tabs, the IdeaPad S2110A's dock has a secondary battery built in.
Impressively, Lenovo suggests we will get a mighty 20 hours of battery life from these two batteries – although this is based on average, moderate use, so expect a lot less if you're going to be watching movies or playing games.
Speaking of playing games, a 1.5GHz quad-core processor means you can play the latest titles: we had a quick play with Horn and weren't surprised to see it running smoothly and looking fantastic on the 1280x800-pixel resolution screen.
A rear-facing five-megapixel camera can be used to take photos, while a front-facing 1.3-megapixel snapper is available for video calls. You can nab a 16GB or 32GB version, but you'll need the keyboard dock, which has a built-in SD card slot, to expand it.
The IdeaTab A2109A is the nine-inch model, also boasting quad-core power and a 1280x800-pixel resolution display. The smaller IdeaTab A2107A is a seven-incher, with a 720p screen and 3G support.
There is no UK release date or pricing for the IdeaTabs yet, but we'll bring you details and a full review very soon.

In mid July, my sister celebrated her 70th birthday. Amongst many other things that she did, she took the female relatives of the family out for lunch in London.
We went to Babylon Restaurant at the Roof Gardens in South Kensington. High up on the 7th floor, 100 feet above the hustle and bustle of Kensington High Street and with amazing views over London ..... it's not often that you can enter a building at street level, take the lift to the 7th floor and emerge in a leafy garden in the centre of London.
I started with Truffle Risotto ..... AMAZING !!!
Then I had a fillet of Hake with Jersey royal potatoes, wild garlic, samphire, poached leeks and a seaweed tartar hollandaise sauce ..... AMAZING !!!
..... and finished off with Lemon Posset, poppy seed ice cream, gin and tonic jelly with juniper meringue ..... AMAZING !!!
Now, if there isn't an event going on, you can take a tour of the famous and oldest spectacular Roof Gardens so that's what we did ..... the Roof Gardens were the brainchild of the chairman of Derry and Toms Department Store, Trevor Bowen and were constructed by Ralph Hancock between 1936 - 1938. Bowen wanted to outdo the gardens of Selfridges and Barkers department stores so he created three themed gardens including fully grown oak trees, a running stream and flamingos !!!
The restaurant and gardens are now part of Sir Richard Branson's empire !!!
The gardens cover 1.5 acres. It has ponds, bridges, walks, trees, shrubs and sitting areas. There is an English Woodland garden with nearly 100 species of trees, a Spanish Garden with fountains and a walled Tudor garden.
Derry and Toms closed in 1971 but was taken over by my favourite shop at the time Biba. Above is Barbara Hulanicki, owner and creator of Biba, in the rooftop gardens with the flamingos !!! I was always in Biba so, it was lovely to go back all of these years later. After it's move from Kensington Church Street to the Derry and Toms building, Biba immediately attracted up to one million customers a week and was one of the most visited tourist attractions in London. After disagreements with the board, Big Biba closed in 1975. I used to like it best when it was in Kensington Church Street ...... it was never the same when it moved and became too big ..... anyway, I digress .....
Here's my photograph of the Spanish Garden .....
..... and here it is in the 1930's.
2017 .....
1940's !!!
It is well worth a visit ..... lunch was very reasonable and, the guy who took us round the gardens said anyone can visit the gardens and sit with a drink as long as there isn't an event on ..... you don't even have to have lunch !!!
Afterwards, we went to see Diana's white garden at Kensington Palace ..... I was going to show the photographs but I thought that you had probably had enough for today ! I'll show you them next time .

text: One of my favorite restaraunts so happens to be located in Minneapolis. This particular restaurant also happens to be my first choice whenever I go to Minneapolis for a presentation, meeting, or on the rare occasion I go out with my friends from the Twin Cities. The Local is an Irish pub, wrapped in with a great restaurant. Normally, I would talk about a specific experience that stood out as being great, but I have never had a bad, or even an average experience here. The food is amazing, it's not overly fancy(unless you want to brave the Irish Cuisine, if you do, just order, don't ask what it is until you are done), but it is great quality. Although, I do not personally drink, I am told that the bartenders are great with alcoholic drinks, and I can vouch for the production of non-alcoholic drinks as being top-notch. The service is friendly and from my experiences both quick and accurate. The accommodations are standard as far as amenities, but what they do offer is an amazing atmosphere(sometimes live music), befitting a traditional Irish pub as far as pleasantness, with a little bit less overall dysfunction. Amongst businesses, the prices are both competitive and surprisingly low. The food and drinks are low compared to many places in the area of comparable style. The rental of space is what you would expect for a medium prices bar. What makes The Local, so great is the combination of all of these, and the continuity of good service. I have been going to The Local for close to 3 years. 3 to 4 times per year for business and 1-2 times per year for personal reasons, I consider myself a solid patron of the establishment. And it has more to do with the fact that I have never had a bad experience than it does with the food or value.

Tommy Hilfiger and Axl Rose fight to the death
Tommy Hilfiger and Axl Rose spent Thursday night at a new club called The Plumm in New York, but Hilfiger ended up punching Axl repeatedly after he moved his girlfriend's drink.
"I moved his girlfriend's drink so it wouldn't spill," Rose told the Los Angeles radio station KROQ on Friday. "It was the most surreal thing, I think, that's ever happened to me in my life." According to the 44-year-old singer, Hilfiger, 55, smacked him in the arm and told him to put the drink back. "He just kept smacking me," Rose said. Rose was there to play a surprise set for "Rent" actress Rosario Dawson for her 27th birthday party. Rose did perform, and dedicated the song "You're Crazy" to "my good friend Tommy Hilfiger."
Yeah, I'd say being punched repeatedly by Tommy Hilfiger qualifies as surreal. It'd be like sharing a bathroom with Brad Pitt and catching him taking peaks over the urinal, occasionally complimenting you on how large and perfectly shaped your penis is. How are you supposed to react to that? I mean, I just punched him in the face and ran out the door sceaming, but there's probably a more civilized way to deal with that knd of thing.

JERMAINE Beckford insists he can come back fitter, faster and stronger next season for Wanderers.
After undergoing a disjointed pre-season as his summer move from Leicester City was completed, Beckford admits he has never quite felt on top of his game.
A niggling hamstring injury saw him ruled out for two months at the start of the year but nevertheless, he still leads the club's scoring charts with nine goals heading into the final game of the season.
Beckford, whose pace proved a key weapon against Sheffield Wednesday, is already looking forward to starting again.
"As much as players hate pre-season, because you know it is going to be hard, it is something everyone needs as a base," he said.
"I definitely need it and I was unfortunate not to start the pre-season with all the boys. I came in but I was floating about but not where I wanted to be because the paperwork hadn't been sorted.
"Once I get a pre-season behind me I know I am going to be as quick and strong as I can be and as positive minded as I can be to start the season off on a high."
Beckford's best form came just prior to the New Year, when he netted seven times in 13 games.
The timing of his hamstring problem was a frustration to the former Everton man – but he was quick to point out that every cloud has a silver lining.
"I was doing alright before I got injured," he said. "You try and do everything possible to stay fit and as strong as possible in the way you look after yourself. Sometimes things happen for a reason.
"If I hadn't got injured then Lukas Jutkiewicz and Joe Mason come in and shown what they have been capable of. Who is to say we would have finished where we are without them?
Beckford is now eager to see how Dougie Freedman will re-shape his squad this summer, with the striker feeling change is inevitable.
"As a squad we have built up special relationships, friendships and understandings, especially the way we play on the field," he said.
"It's always a shame when the season ends because you know one or two players might leave. You are always looking to improve as a squad and I am sure the manager has ideas and players he would like to bring in to improve the squad.
"I would like to see the majority of the players, if not all the players, stay. But I am a realist and I know that is not going to happen."
Victory over Sheffield Wednesday extended an unbeaten run on the road to eight games and Beckford believes the omens are good for a better start next season.
"It's eight games unbeaten away from home now," he said. "It's down to the players the manager has picked and the tactics and the formation the manager has gone with. They have been spot on every single game.
"Unfortunately it didn't start earlier in the season but hopefully we will be able to take the momentum we have built up into the next game and into next season."

Guns N' Roses is a hard rock band founded in 1985 that is still going strong. The group was pulled together by Axl Rose, the lead vocalist. The lead-guitar player back then was Tracii Guns, and it was the combination of Axl and Tracii's "family" names that led to the band being called Guns N' Roses.
23. Innsbruck locale: Abbr. : AUS
The Austrian state of Tyrol has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world, especially if you love the mountains. It is in the very west of the country, just south of Bavaria in Germany. The capital city of Tyrol is the famous Innsbruck.
24. The Hadean was the first one, ending about 4 billion years ago : EON
The Hadean isn't an official geologic eon, but it is noted as the "age" just after the Earth formed, about 4.5 billion years ago. The name "Hadean" comes from the Greek work "Hades" meaning "Underworld".
34. Davis who portrayed a president : GEENA
The actress Geena Davis portrayed President Mackenzie Allen in the television show "Commander in Chief" on ABC. I thought "Commander in Chief" was a show with great potential, but sadly it was cancelled after just 18 episodes.
As well as being a successful Hollywood actress, Geena Davis is an accomplished archer and came close to qualifying for the US archery team for the 2000 Summer Olympics. Davis is also a member of American Mensa. She is quite the lady ...

Later, in Genesis 7:2-3, Noah was instructed to take on board "every clean animal by sevens ... male and female, to keep offspring alive on the face of all the earth". Apparently "extras" (7 rather than 2) were needed for ritual sacrifice.
41. "Hair" producer Joseph : PAPP
Joseph Papp was theatrical producer and founder of the Public Theater in New York City. After his death, the Public Theater was named in his memory, the Joseph Papp Public Theater. Papp is also known for producing the original version of the hit musical "Hair".
42. Grand Canal site : VENICE
The Grand Canal is a large, S-shaped canal that traverses the city of Venice in Italy. For centuries there was only one bridge across the canal, the famed Rialto Bridge. Now there are four bridges in all, including a controversial structure that was opened to the public in 2008, the Ponte della Costituzione.
48. Ripe territory for pirates, once : SPANISH MAIN
When one thinks of the word "main" in the context of the sea, the Spanish Main usually comes to mind. Indeed, the use of the more general term "main", meaning the sea, originates from the more specific "Spanish Main". "Spanish Main" originally referred to land and not water, as it was the name given to the main-land coast around the Caribbean Sea in the days of Spanish domination of the region.
50. Watson's creator : IBM
Watson is a program still in development at IBM. It is designed to answer questions that are posed in natural language, so that it should be able to interpret questions just as you and I would, no matter how the question is phrased. The program is named after the founder of IBM, Thomas J. Watson. Watson competed in a few memorable episodes of "Jeopardy!" in 2011 taking out two of the best players of the quiz show. That made for fun television.
55. Depression-era agcy. : NRA
The National Recovery Agency (NRA) was set up in 1933 as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal. The intent of the NRA was to root out destructive competition and at the same time set minimum standards for workers and minimum selling prices. However the NRA was short-lived as it was declared unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court.
63. Losing player in the first Super Bowl : KANSAS CITY CHIEF
The Kansas City Chiefs professional football team started out as the Dallas Texans, in 1960.
Super Bowl I was played in January 1967 between the Green Bay Packers and the Kansas City Chiefs. The Packers emerged victorious in a game with a score of 35-10.
66. Butler who didn't give a damn : RHETT
Rhett Butler hung out with Scarlett O'Hara at the Tara plantation in Margaret Mitchell's "Gone with the Wind". In the book, Tara was founded by Scarlett's father, Irish immigrant Gerald O'Hara. He named his new abode after the Hill of Tara back in his home country, the ancient seat of the High King of Ireland.
67. Post-marathon feeling : ACHE
The marathon is run over 26 miles and 385 yards, and of course commemorates the legendary messenger-run by Pheidippides from the site of the Battle of Marathon back to Athens. The distance run today was decided in 1921, and matches the route of the modern-day Marathon-Athens highway.
68. Automobile builder Ferrari : ENZO
Enzo Ferrari was an Italian race car driver, and founder of the Ferrari car manufacturer. Ferrari died in 1988, and in 2003 the company named the Enzo Ferrari model after its founder.
70. Fight stoppers, for short : TKOS
In boxing, a knockout (KO) is when one of the fighters can't get up from the canvas within a specified time, usually 10 seconds. This can be due to fatigue, injury, or the participant may be truly "knocked out". A referee, fighter or doctor may also decide to stop a fight without a physical knockout, especially if there is concern about a fighter's safety. In this case the bout is said to end with a technical knockout (TKO).
3. Fox News's Gretchen Carlson or Steve Doocy : CO-HOST
Gretchen Carlson is the co-host of the Fox News show "Fox & Friends", alongside Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade. Carson took up a career in television journalism after winning the 1989 Miss America Pageant.
Steve Doocy is a co-host on Fox News's morning show called "Fox & Friends". Doocy also worked as the live Times Square reporter for ABC's "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve".
4. Slaughter in baseball : ENOS
Enos Slaughter has a remarkable playing record in Major League Baseball, over a 19-year career. His record is particularly remarkable given that he left baseball for three years to serve in the military during WWII.
5. Mount ___ (Seven Sisters college) : HOLYOKE
The Seven Sisters are a group of (traditionally women's) colleges in the northeast of the country. The seven are:
- Mount Holyoke
- Vassar
- Wellesley
- Smith
- Radcliffe
- Bryn Mawr
- Barnard
8. Architectural decoration : FRIEZE
A frieze is an architectural feature found in many Roman and Greek buildings. Inside a room, frieze is the name given to the upper part of the wall, between the picture rail and the crown molding. Outside of a room, the term frieze is the name given to any extended decoration that is positioned above eye level. Perhaps the most famous frieze comes from the Parthenon in Athens. Over a third of this highly decorated feature was removed from Athens and taken to London in the early 1800s by the Earl of Elgin, where they remain on display in the British Museum. These famous "Elgin Marbles" are subject of much controversy as the legality of the removal is in dispute.
9. Lottery lure : JACKPOT
The term "jackpot" dates back to the 1800s and is from the game of poker. In some variants there are progressive antes, meaning that players have to "ante up" when no player has a pair of "jacks" or better ... building a "jackpot".
11. Big name in auto parts : NAPA
The National Automotive Parts Association (NAPA) is a retailers' cooperative that supplies replacement parts for cars and trucks.
12. "Moonraker" villain : DRAX
Sir Hugo Drax is the antagonist in the James Bond novel (and movie) "Moonraker". Ian Fleming chose the name for the character as he had a friend in real life, Sir Reginald Drax, a British admiral.
25. "99 Luftballons" singer : NENA
Nena is a German singer (Nena became the name of her band as well), and she had a big hit with one of my favorite songs of the eighties, "99 Luftballons" (and the version she recorded in English: "99 Red Balloons"). The English translation of the German title isn't literal, with the color "red" added just so that the title had the right number of syllables. A "Luftballon" is the name given to a child's toy balloon in German.
30. Former West Coast N.F.L.'er : LA RAM
The St. Louis Rams have won the Super Bowl only once, in 1999 against the Tennessee Titans. The Rams were based in Cleveland from 1936-45, Los Angeles from 1946-94 and St. Louis from 1995 to the present day.
31. Org. for R.V. owners : KOA
Kampgrounds of America (KOA) was founded in 1962 by a Montana businessman Dave Drum, who opened up his first property along the Yellowstone River. His strategy was to offer a rich package of services including hot showers, restrooms and a store, to those people used to camping in the rough. The original campground was an immediate hit and Drum took on two partners and sold franchises all over the country. There are about 500 KOA sites today.
36. Some Samsungs : TVS
Samsung is huge multinational company based in Seoul, South Korea. We tend to think of Samsung as a supplier of consumer electronics perhaps, but the company is into so much more. Samsung Heavy Industries is the world's second-biggest shipbuilder, and Samsung Techwin is a major manufacturer of aeronautic and weapons systems. The name "Samsung" means "three stars" in Korean.
40. '80s Chrysler offering : K-CAR
Chrysler's K-cars were designed to carry 6 passengers, on two bench seats. Remember taking a corner a little too fast on those seats, in the days when no one wore seat belts?
43. The Plame affair, informally : CIAGATE
Robert Novak broke a story in 2003 naming Valerie Plame Wilson, wife of former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, as a covert CIA agent. Valery Plame worked at a clothing store in Washington D.C. after graduating college before she was accepted into the CIA officer training class of 1985/86. She was to work for the CIA for over twenty years, before being "outed" in 2003.
44. Cable sports awards : ESPYS
The ESPY Awards are a creation of the ESPN sports television network. One difference with similarly named awards in the entertainment industry is that ESPY winners are chosen solely based on viewer votes.
47. "Giant Brain" of 1946 : ENIAC
The acronym ENIAC stands for Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator (although many folks insist that the C was for "Computer"). ENIAC was the first general-purpose electronic computer. It was designed to calculate artillery firing tables, but it ended up being used early on to make calculations necessary for the development of the hydrogen bomb. Given its uses, it's not surprising to hear that development of ENIAC was funded by the US Army during WWII.
49. Jazz lover, in old slang : HEP CAT
The slang term "hep" meaning "cool" has the same meaning as the later derivative term "hip". The origins of "hep" seem unclear, but it was adopted by jazz musicians of the early 1900s.
56. Les Nessman's station : WKRP
The sitcom "WKRP in Cincinnati" was produced by MTM, the production company established by Mary Tyler Moore and her husband for the "The Mary Tyler Moore Show". "WKRP" was a successful enough show when it originally aired, but then became a blockbuster in syndication. It became MTM's most watched program, even outstripping the original "The Mary Tyler Moore Show".
57. Diamond Head's isle : OAHU
O'ahu has been called "The Gathering Place", although the word "O'ahu" has no translation in Hawaiian. It seems that O'ahu is simply the name of the island. One story is that it is named after the son of the Polynesian navigator that first found the islands.
Diamond Head on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu was given its name by British sailors in the 1800s. These sailors found calcite crystals in the rock surrounding the volcanic tuff cone, and mistook the crystals for diamonds.
58. Scott Turow memoir : ONE L
While "One L" is a name used in general for first year law students, "One L" is also the title of an autobiographical narrative by author Scott Turow, telling of his experiences as a first year student at Harvard Law School.
62. Ostrich's cousin : RHEA
The rhea is a flightless bird native to South America. The rhea takes its name from the Greek titan Rhea, an apt name for a flightless bird as "rhea" comes from the Greek word meaning "ground".
64. Some GPS lines: Abbr. : STS
GPS stands for Global Positioning System. The modern GPS system that we use today was built by the US military who received the massive funding needed because of fears during the Cold War of the use of Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles. We civilians, all round the world, owe a lot to President Ronald Reagan because he directed the military to make GPS technology available to the public for the common good. He was moved to do so after the Soviet Union shot down KAL flight 007 carrying 269 people, just because the plane strayed accidentally into Soviet airspace.

I don't put a lot of clout in astrology and other supernatural excuses for common human behavior. However, I read an article a few years back (that I am completely incapable of reproducing at the moment, so just suck it up and trust me for a minute) about a group of regular crossword solvers who were isolated from society for a week, and given the crossword from the newspaper a day later. In every single case, they solved the puzzles quicker than an equally talented group solving the day before.
Why? The hypothesis was that there is a common human subconscious, and that the answers to that crossword was now known, and therefore easier. Of course, I still spend all week working on the Sunday Times, and still don't always finish it. But the important thing is the idea that we're all sort of connected in a way that can't totally be measured.
Not quite, but closer than you'd like to admit.
So, what the hell do crosswords have to do with anything, right? Here's the thing. You know some days, when it seems like everybody is just mad? I mean, it happens with a lot of situations. Everyone has a long, tiring, shitty week. Everyone is suddenly driving crazy today. Everyone has diarrhea (most common in Mexico). Some call it serendipity, some call it random patterns emerging in chaos… I like to think that it's the same thing as the crosswords. And when you hit that day when everyone is on the edge for apparently no reason, it makes a lot of sense.
So what the hell, people? Why are you all so mad right now? Think about it. All I said was "are we meeting up or not" and y'all were on my ass like green on grass. Or maybe we bumped on the street and you insulted my mother's character and figure. That guy I accidentally hit in the face with a lit cigarette… okay, you have every right to be mad. I was gesticulating. Now we all know that the three feet of personal space I was talking about is for your safety, not my comfort. See? We learned something. Are we, like, even?
Am I gonna have to put this thing in backwards? Will that satisfy you?
My point is, what are you really mad about? You can't actually be that angry at me. I'm not that big a deal, and certainly not worth getting mad about. So what is up humanity's communal butt?
A lot of people, when they realize they've been irrationally mad, cite a "lot of small things" as the reason why they are feeling this way. Myself included. But if you look at all those small things, the sum of anger is still greater than the total of it's parts… of things that make anger. I think that disparity is exactly this phenomenon – sometimes, we're all just a little angry. All of us, simultaneously, pissed off about completely different things, but for the same reason. Today, we woke up, and decided we were all going to be angry and make each other miserable.
Sorry about bitching like this. I just hate when everyone is mad. It feels like you can't go anywhere or do anything without some jackass getting up in yo face and puttin' up signals like he's somebody. You ain't nobody, bitch. So get the f*** out of my face. Seriously. Will everybody just calm the f*** down?!?
Shit. Now I've got the bug. I'm gonna go isolate myself until we all get a random and simultaneous wave of horny.

The long-awaited Alan Partridge movie is finally on the cusp of hitting the big screen. Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa has its release date set for August on our shores, and I can't wait to see Steve Coogan back in the role, marking the character's feature debut.
A brilliant first teaser trailer launched back in the spring. And with its release now less than two months away, StudioCanal have released a brilliant new trailer and a great new image, giving us a better look at Alan Partridge in action.
Alan Partridge has had many ups and downs in his life. National television broadcaster. Responsible for killing a guest on live TV. Local radio broadcaster. A nervous breakdown in Dundee. His self-published book,'Bouncing Back', subsequently remaindered and pulped.
ALAN PARTRIDGE: ALPHA PAPA portrays the events of the greatest low-to-high-ebb spectrum in his life to date – specifically how he tries to salvage his public career while negotiating a potentially violent turn of events at North Norfolk Digital Radio.
Coogan is joined by past collaborators Felicity Montagu, Tim Key, Simon Greenall, Phil Cornwell, Nigel Lindsay, and Darren Boyd. And starring alongside them will be Colm Meaney, Anna Maxwell Martin, Monica Dolan, Sean Pertwee, and Dustin Demri-Burns.
Declan Lowney (Alan Partridge on Open Books with Martin Bryce) is behind the camera, directing from a script co-written by Coogan, Armando Iannucci, Peter Baynham, and Neil and Rob Gibbons.
Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa will be released on 7th August in the UK and Ireland. Still no word yet on the film's US release date, but we're hoping it will be heading into theatres there later in the year for all Partridge's fans across the Atlantic.

David Spade is a dad
Remember when David Spade found out he knocked up a Playboy Bunny? I'm kidding. No one does. But that didn't stop a baby girl from popping out of Jillian Grace's vagina making David Spade a first-time daddy and, also, a first-time wage garnishee. People reports:
"David and Jillian have been in close contact throughout her pregnancy and he plans to go see the baby during his first break from shooting Rules of Engagement," Spade's rep, Meredith O'Sullivan, tells PEOPLE.
Hopefully, the lesson learned here is that Hugh Hefner really needs someone on hand tying up tubes at the mansion. Guys like David Spade deserve quality customer service that goes above and beyond simply not laughing at their penis. Which, don't get me wrong, is always appreciated. Or so I hear – from other people. Who aren't me. I'm hung like a spaceship!

Even more dramatic growth of 50 percent is projected for the 2000 - 2010 period. Acquiring quality Real Estate will soon be beyond the reach of most Americans as the population continues to increase. Furthermore, with extremely beautiful weather and thousands of recreational and entertainment activities, investing in California land can be considered an excellent investment for generations to come!

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 6/8/2013 (1477 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Give me everything, please
I am a Manitoba taxpayer. I want shorter wait times at the emergency rooms, for MRIs and for hip and knee replacements. I want more and better schools, more money for our crumbling Winnipeg infrastructure, more money for police and crime prevention, better flood protection and full compensation for all damages due to any natural disasters.
I also want better social services and more programs for the mentally ill, underprivileged and First Nations people. I want cheaper electricity and automobile insurance, increased grants to all post-secondary institutions and lower tuitions, more recreational facilities and better-serviced provincial parks, and better environmental protection. Also, I want a more efficient government.
But I don't want cuts in the services I use or to those located in my area of the province. However, they had better not expect me to pay higher taxes. As is often said, you get what you pay for.
Exchange needs parking
In response to Support Exchange residents, not their cars (Aug. 4), I must say that Robert Galston is missing a key angle to his argument about the parking situation in the Exchange, namely that of the arts patron.
While I do support more green alternatives to getting downtown like carpooling, taking transit or biking to work where they make sense for the individual, the scarcity of parking for people who frequent the opera, symphony, theatre or the ballet has reached a critical point where demand far exceeds supply. In fact there are tens of thousands of people who at some point from September to May are in this quadrant of the city.
The East Exchange is in dire need of a safe parking alternative for all arts patrons, especially the elderly, who are long-term supporters of the arts that do not feel comfortable taking transit late at night or who require minimal walking distance to the venue. With the closing of the Civic Parkade, now is the time to carefully consider the options. Risk alienating and losing arts lovers who help drive the economic engine of this city and have nowhere to park or perhaps consider the option to pave paradise to put up a parking lot.

Art? Who's to say?
Re: The definition of art (Letters, Aug. 1). Peter Lacey suggests there is an objective methodology of what is considered "art" or not. Yes, I believe that a crucifix in a jar of urine can be considered art as it conveys a message, perhaps a certain feeling or thought going through the artist's mind at that time.
However, neither the viewer nor the artist have to be aware of their talents when viewing art as it does very little or anything to validate the absolute value of art. It is mostly just subjective values that the viewer holds to equate how good of an "art" masterpiece it was.
Ah, yes, the Peter Laceys of our world. During my lifetime I have run into countless persons who wished to have a perfect, unfuzzy definition of art. And I have always wondered who was that magical person that could gift us with a perfect definition.
Three of the pieces Lacey is referring are either a photograph entitled Piss Christ by Andres Serrano (1987); Voice of Fire by Barnett Newman (purchased by our National Gallery of Art in 1989), or Sharon Alward's piece entitled Totentanz (1991).
Hollywood Hen Pit was performed by Doug Melnyk and Ian Mazden at this year's Fringe Festival and received a multitude of attention.
Viewers and reviewers have been asking questions and this, after all, is one of the most important things art is supposed to do. I do hope Lacey experienced some or all of these pieces. Otherwise it would be very like burning a book without having read it. History has already judged Barnett Newman. Thankfully, the quartet is still with us and, hopefully, will continue to work as diligently and intensely as it has been.
Personally, I prefer to think of everything as art even if not everything rises to my esthetic and intellectual sensibilities. I think this type of laissez-faire attitude helps normalize bowel activity.

Transfers have increased
Clark Brownlee's July 27 letter, Shedding light on tax, does nothing of the kind. Core federal transfers to Manitoba have not shrunk as he contends.
For the period 2009-10 to 2013-14, which Brownlee cites, health transfers to Manitoba have increased from $903 million to $1.12 billion or by $218 million (24 per cent). Social transfers to Manitoba have increased from $392 million to $443 million or by $53 million (13.5 per cent).
Over the same period, equalization payments have been reduced from $2.06 billion to $1.79 billion or by $271 million (13 per cent). However, reductions were offset by Total Transfer Protection payments of $661 million. The net losses Brownlee complains of do not exist.
There is no pool of funds created for health and social transfers. Funding is provided by the federal government from general revenues and that includes transfers to Alberta as well as every other province.
The core federal transfers are under long-term commitment to allow provinces to budget and plan; the arbitrary reductions of which Brownlee complains are a fiction.
Equalization is a separate fund administered by and partially funded by the federal government. Provinces participate and receive funding through an agreed formula renegotiated every five years. The next negotiation and adjustment (which the provinces will participate in) will be in 2014.
Manitoba is one of six provinces benefiting from the equalization program supported by Newfoundland and Labrador, Saskatchewan, Alberta, B.C. and the federal government.
Equalization alone accounts for 15 per cent of the current Manitoba budget. Health and social transfers, together with equalization, accounts for 28 per cent of our current budget. Even so, our government is projecting a $505-million deficit. With nearly $1.8 billion in equalization rolling in each year to help provide Manitobans with basic services, which includes infrastructure, why are we complaining of infrastructure deficits? The Manitoba government is squandering money it does not have instead of focusing on its core responsibilities and ensuring its operation is efficient and effective.
