Georgia Tech
OT - SIAP: Georgia Tech gets slammed by NCAA
So, 4 years of probation and 2 years of recruiting time reductions.
For 312$ and one tipped off player about an interview
Just thought it might give some perspective on the whole "I wonder if OSU is going to get off easy"
OSU had 5,000 dollars in impermissible benefits, directly lied and impeded on the investigation being started and finally did not even take more than 2 years of probation.
To qoute CCR:
I see, a baddd moon a risin.. I see trouble onnn the way..

What Does Great Offense Look Like and How Close is Michigan?
[ed: bump.]
Pulling the content a little closer to home this week in an effort to keep a higher R squared value with the MGoBlog readers!
As always, this analysis only considers games between two D1 opponents and takes only plays during competitive game situations into account.
Not all great offenses are created equally
If we are going to know what it takes to become a great offense under Rich Rodriguez, we must first know what it will look like, because great offenses can take on many different appearances. Below is a play success distribution for my top rated offense last year (Georgia Tech, option baby), the top passing offense (Captain Leach Texas Tech) and a look at West Virginia from 2007, Rodriguez's last year at the helm. I went ahead and threw in the BCS's worst, Washington St, just for comparison.
The Paul Johnson option is working with big plays, rather they are taking out the bad plays. Over three-quarters of Georgia Tech's plays go for positive yardage. This balances out no strong tendency towards big plays. The end result is old school football: lots of long drives and moving the chains.
At the Captain's helm, Texas Tech had nearly a quarter of all of their plays go for no gain. As always, there are tradeoffs. For Tech they came in the form of the 10-20 yard gain.
Under Rodriguez, West Virginia saw something different than either of those two. Even with a run-pass split close to Georgia Tech, the distribution of the spread 'n' shred was much different than the Option. Where the Yellowjackets saw a heavy dose of positive but small gains, the Mountaineers had a solid lead in everything from 4-20 yards. The end results where similar with both teams producing touchdown drives with regularity, but the path was much longer for Georgia Tech. West Virginia's ability to get the somewhat big play allowed them to shorten drives, add possessions to the game and eliminate some of the variance through an increase in scoring chances.
How close are we?
As everyone knows, we are much closer coming in to this year than we were last year. Here is another chart to support that notion.
There are many charts to look at that show the dreadfulness of 2008, so we won't dwell on that. What is becoming clear is that the shape of 2009 is becoming quite similar to West Virginia 2007. The big difference, and its a big one, is that Michigan still has a lot of plays going for no gain, where West Virginia was able to get 5+ yards out of those same plays.
If Michigan is going to mirror the West Virginia offensive success, it appears to have a made very clear first step last season.
How does this compare to previous years?
The biggest difference between the Carr era and the Rodriguez era in terms of yardage gained distribution is the passing game bump from the Carr era in the 10-20 yard gain range. The Rodriguez system is more geared towards to the 4-9 yard gains where the Carr offense excelled in the 0-3 and 10-20 yard ranges.
What does this mean for 2010?
The cliché: Take the Next Step.
It looks like framework of what Rodriguez wants to do is in place after two rough years, but the execution is still behind his days at West Virginia. The offensive line now has two years in the system and for the first time there is a quarterback (in fact two!) who have both experience and talent. As I noted in a previous diary, a jump from average in 2009 to good in 2010 is certainly a good possibility and with a break or two and improved quarterback play, it could go from average to great.
Steve Threet is the "Kryptonite" of Football (link)
EDSBS rips on Threet...and us a little. But its funny enough that I'm kinda ok with it.
EDIT: People seemed a little offended by the title. It was just a rephrase from the actual article. Nevertheless, I changed it to avoid offense.
Predictions/thoughts on Iowa versus Georgia Tech
Georgia Tech is presently favored by four.
When it came to pool-picking time, my quick reaction was "How do you predict what a team will do against that unusual Ga Tech offense?" But then I got to thinking, what normally is a Ga Tech advantage in the regular season--an unusual offense that opponents have one week to prepare for--is not as much of an advantage in a bowl game. Ferentz has time to prepare.
And from what I've read, Stanzi is good to go. I like Iowa. (OK, I'm a B10 homer.)
OT: Clean Old-Fashioned Hate - All the Way, Turned Up
Pregame - Tailgating
With the game scheduled for an 8pm kick off, we naturally began tailgating at 12:30pm at a Fraternity House near the stadium. Tailgate food was pretty standard, with additional foods such as Brunswick Stew and a Chick-Fil-A platter. Delicious.) Needless to say, with about 7 hours of tailgating, there were plenty of beverages consumed and shenanigans to be had.
Noticeable differences:
The attire was different. Pledges wore shirts and ties, some had pants that matched the color of their team (e.g. Tech students had yellow slacks, while some Georgia students had red slacks...yikes!)
I already was aware that the girls wore sun dresses to games; but, when it gets cooler they wear jackets matching the color of their schools. This may be more accurate for those in the Greek system at Georgia Tech, but I saw many folks with outfits that match school colors, but don't explicitly say the school's name. I did see people with jerseys, shirts etc., but not among the Frat/Sorority crowds.
Speaking of attire...
I of course had to be "that guy" with my Michigan hat on. The top two questions people asked me were:
1. "What do you think of Rich Rodriguez?"
2. "You think y'all are going to fire him?"
My response probably came off a bit defensive in nature, but I responded that I am a supporter/buyer of what Rodriguez brings to Michigan and that I think the general public won't expect as much from Michigan, which will play in his favor nicely when he wins 8 or 9 games next season. (Homer? Maybe...) I also ran into a someone who yelled out a 'Go Blue!' Found out he was born in Grand Rapids but moved to the South, which confirmed, you can't go anywhere without running into at least one Michigan fan.
Similar to the Victors' Walk, Georgia Tech has a Players' Walk down Yellow Jacket Alley. The band, cheer leaders and Ramblin' Wreck and fans all participate. One interesting note here is that they allow the Recruits to join in on the walk. I'm not sure if we do this currently, but I noticed it specifically this weekend. I bet the recruits loved it. If you click the above link, you'll see what it was like for Saturday's game. You'll also notice how much closer everyone gets to the players, coaches, etc. than we do at Michigan.
During the Game:
The night atmosphere was pretty awesome. The sky was clear and the Atlanta skyline looked gorgeous. I was sitting in the Georgia section with my girlfriend, a GaTech alumnus. If I had to compare Georgia fans to MSU or OSU fans, I'd say our Big Ten rivals are worse, but when Georgia fans bark at you as part of their chant, I'll admit there are few chants that are more annoying.
I spent the first half in the Georgia section and the second half in the GaTech section. In the UGA section, we were above the GaTech band; due to acoustics I couldn't hear the Tech band. We heard Georgia's band pretty well from across the stadium.
The neatest thing to note, is the fact that Georgia Tech had a rap song (I think by Soulja Boy called "All the way turned up" as an official theme for their hype videos that were playing on the big screen. Not only was the song piped in throughout the game, the band also learned to play it too!
Here's a version of the hype video.
While this song is pretty atrocious, it pumped the student and alumni crowds, and it also prompted the crowd to get loud on key defensive plays. Supposedly, some of the hype videos played before key plays/downs were created by players on the team. To me, that shows that the players and students totally bought into the team and its direction. It also shows that the athletic program affords its players the freedom to be creative and have real ownership of the direction of the team. (Note: Again, the song is bad, but I like the idea of involving the players to help engage the crowd on the big screen.)
Another cool thing to see was in between the third and fourth quarter, the GT band plays the Budweiser song. The video doesn't really do it justice. It's a fun thing to see in between the 3rd and 4th quarters.
Post Game:
The game was an exciting game that unfortunately slipped through GaTechs hands, literally. The crowd was in it the entire game. I stood the entire game, shouting and yelling, and not once was I told to sit down. That felt nice. The loss however, sucked as much as if I had gone to Tech.
Once Demariyus Thomas dropped a pass on fourth down, the entire stadium fell to silence, save the scattered sections of barking Georgia fans. The interesting thing though, was that Georgia Tech fans were more upset that both Clemson and GaTech lost to "bottom" SEC schools than anything else. They really have conference pride. Perhaps it's a geographical thing for ACC fans?
At any rate, I strongly recommend a game at Georgia Tech, or any other school in the country for that matter. If you go to a game somewhere else, I'd love to read your observations on the game day feel. I'm planning on attending the Rutgers-West Virginia game; I may tone down the Michigan attire so as to avoid confrontation.

A Great Value
4 people found the following review helpful
Posted by HawaiianViking From Hawaii on Nov 26, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
When doing laundry, I alternate between Bio Kleen, Laundry Liquid, Free & Clear, Unscented and Method, Laundry Detergent, Free + Clear. Both detergents are great at cleaning filthy laundry without toxic chemicals and artificial fragrances, and neither product is tested on animals. It would seem, however, that Bio Kleen, Laundry Liquid is a much better value: Bio Kleen, Laundry Liquid, Free & Clear, Unscented costs 19¢ per load; Method, Laundry Detergent, Free + Clear costs 33¢ per load. I appreciate that it's so concentrated — it makes toting the bottle to the laundry much less cumbersome. The suggested use is "Only 1 oz Per Load!", but I always use more, not because it's necessary, but because of my own compulsion to see a lot of sudsing action. In all, I'm a satisfied customer, and I will re-order.

This is great. It cleans dirty collars effectively. It truly is unscented. There are no mouldy smells on the laundry. Everything comes out just very clean and fresh, fresh, meaning, no fragrance whatsoever, just the clean fresh smell you get on clothes after you bring them in from the line. I use 1/2 capful and everything comes out clean. Like they say on the bottle, tough stains, just put a little on the stain and I leave it for 10 minutes, then wash. Even bringing this to the uk including shipping with dhl is cheaper than buying a similar product here in the uk. This is the one I have been looking for. Will buy again.

This laundry liquid works well in my front load washer. And the bottle lasts a long time. It's a good value, especially when you buy it at iherb. And I can't always find fragrance free laundry liquid at the health food store.

Too Nice to Slice is one of the few places in the area where you can find homemade fudge in a variety of flavors, as well as sugar-free cupcakes, brownies and cakes.
They also recently started selling red velvet cake ice cream, which has quickly become a popular item on the menu. Employees estimate the red velvet cupcakes are still their best-selling item. If all of that isn't enough red velvet for you, they also sell red velvet brownies and red velvet cake.
Too Nice to Slice also offers custom cakes made to order. Party supplies may also be found in the store, from cards to candles.
For those just dropping in to satisfy a sweet craving, they have cheesecake, pies, cookies, cinnamon rolls, muffins, fried pies and cream horns.
For those looking for variety, they have a multitude of cupcake flavors. Just some of the flavors include: Swiss mocha, banana pudding, Italian cream, butter pecan, chocolate with peanut butter, funfetti, Elvis and watermelon. Too Nice to Slice uses buttercream icing and cream cheese icing, depending on the flavor.
A creative sign in the window urges customers to "cool down with our summer sweets." The letters in "summer" have flames; the letters in "cool" are covered with snow and the first "O" in "cool" is wearing green sunglasses. Customers would likely want to sample some of the many varieties of Blue Bell ice cream if they need to cool down.

So, when I got my iPhone I used SSH all the time transfering files. Then I switched to Total Commander and T-Pot. Then when I updated to 1.1.3 T-Pot no longer sees the whole entire iPhone. But SSH did, until now of course. And lately for some reason I cannot connect via SSH. I try to connect and after about 30 seconds it says Error: Connection Timed Out. I reinstalled BSD Subsystem and OpenSSH and nothing fixed it. Could it be Customize 2.0 or some other app? I have even restored twice and it still hasn't fixed the issue...
Please help.
Thumbs up for whoever helps me.

EDIT: Nevermind I figured it out. Some how WinSCP had changed the time out limit to 15 seconds, so I changed it to 60 seconds and it worked!

Asteroid Fields
okay..i spoiled it with the Title, now you know what game i want to introduce today.
its Asteroids the great classic arcade game released 1979 by Atari using the same vector display like in their other arcade game called Lunar Lander which they were producing at the same time as store owners all over the US wanted to order Asteroids.
anyway, in the end Asteroids became Atari´s best selling arcade game ever.
in the game the player has to navigate a space ship through an asteroid field, shoot at the asteroids and always be careful not to collide with them.
as an additional feature the space ship can use hyperspace, which means the spaceship randomly appears at the screen after disappearing (but thats a bit dangerous, cause it could always appear in middle of the field and hit an asteroid and be destroyed).
to move our spaceship it can rotate left and right and using thrust to move forward.
each destroyed asteroid gives points..bonus points can be gained by shooting flying saucers, which randomly appear.
thats the gameplay to far..and since Atari had so much success with it, they decided to have an own Flash Version on their site you can play which is very very close to the original..

I really need this kind of places in my life, a place where you can blow off some of the stress that you cultivated throughout the whole week.
Its... ok. – I wasn't impressed with this place, it was awfully loud and I didn't have a good time at all. The atmosphere just wasent what I was hoping it would be. Not too crazy about the food, either. I probably wont come back again.
Good food for a bar; Very loud inside – This place has surprisingly good food for a bar and plays a great collection of football games during the NFL season. That said, it's loud as all hell inside to the point that you can't hear anyone talking. The outside patio is better but then you miss out on some of the games.
Karen, I don't know what to say. Most of the time I get the complaint that you can't hear the sound to the game or the music. We try so hard, but we can't please everybody. Being a sports bar, most patrons request, nay, DEMAND the sound to the game. Since it's not just background music and the announcers need to be heard, we turn up the volume to, what the consensus believes is, an optimal level for both atmosphere and aural embellishment. I appreciate the good things you said and will try my best to find common ground between you and the other demanding fans. Cheers, Bill

Not Amazing – It was not amamzing! Everything was ok but it is not a great place to eat or hang out.
Dear AJ, I apologize that your experience wasn't "amamzing" (sic), please write to me directly at email@example.com and let me know some specifics. I'd love the chance to make your next visit spectacular. -Bill
NOT THE BEST PLACE TO WATCH THE SUPERBOWL – I am glad the owner could cut and paste his website for his review. The only thing this place has going for it is location. The beer is never cold, the drinks suck and the food is marginal. DO NOT make this the stop for the super bowl.
Rick, I'm REALLY sorry you feel this way. The majority of my patrons do not agree with you. We take great pride in our establishment and, apparently, we cannot please everybody--but we certainly do try. We added four more 50" flatscreens this fall so you can see almost all the games from any seat. I'm the first to admit that service times can slow down a little on busy game days but we do the best we can. Regarding the beer, our coolers are kept at 30-32 degrees.
I would love the opportunity to address your concerns in person. I beg of you to come back and ask for me (Bill, the owner) personally. Bring o copy of this review and I'll prove to you why Frankie's is the first, second and (soon to be) third best sports bar in the Metroplex!
-Bill (PS-I didn't cut and paste that review...a well meaning patron did...some people really DO like us!)
The ONLY place to Watch 2011 Superbowl in Dallas! – My name is Wendy and I am the one that wrote that review that an ex patron apparently got offended by so…….. I went ahead and reworded my review 'in all of my own words'. Hope this satisfies all. Folks, this is a great place. Give it a try, Frankie's Sports Bar and Grill opened in the summer of 2000, they don't have three locations by mistake, Hey and RICK wont be there lol :) It will be in the NY Times on the 30th of January to go to Frankie's AGAIN for the Superbowl in Dallas , so if you don't like what we have to say. Read the newspaper :)
This is a quote from USA Today- Maintaining its promise of above standard cuisine, Frankie's has perfected the art of "Bar Food" into what USA Today referred to as, ''...a menu on steroids."
Best regards,
Wendy STILL a FRANKIE's FAN!
PS: They have over 40 TV's! RUN don't walk and get thre Frankies Special sandwich , it's the BOMB!
I may be biased, Wendy, but I must agree. Super Bowl XLV is going to be one big party--and Super Bowl Party Headquarters will be at Frankie's!
SD Charger Fans Invade Frankies! – Over 200 SD Charger fans invaded Frankies on Saturday night December 12th before going to the game and Jerry's new palace on Sunday. The place went off and the owners and all their employees treated us great! They even played the SD Super Chargers song for us over the house PA system! I own a bar & grill in Carlsbad, California, called the Grand Avenue Bar & Grill (The G Spot) and I am not sure that we would have been able to be so accommodating to so many Cowboy fans - not that we wouldn't want to take their money! Again, Frankie's was great to all of us and when I am back in Dallas, I would definitely go their to eat, drink, and watch sports - the owners and all his employees are great and know how to show and give that Texas hospitality!
Hey G-Spot, thanks for writing. Glad you enjoyed our Texas hospitality (I just wish we had won that game! :-( ). It was hard NOT to have a good time that night. The SD crowd was NUTHIN' BUT FUN!!! Obviously, You guys were there for a good time so I had to oblige. Thanks for including me. I have to admit, it wasn't my idea to play the SuperChargers song. One of your fellow fans had it on his iPhone. But, once he told me he had it, I had to play it. It was too much fun watching all you Bolt-Heads sing along. Hope we get to do it again, but next time--GO COWBOYS!!!!!!!! -Bill
Really fun bar – We were in town for the 2009 Cotton Bowl. A friend recommended Frankies and we went by on Jan 1, the day before the CB. They had alot of flat screen TV, so one could see any of the bowl games. The atmosphere was cool, drinks good and the food was better than most bars. But the thing that puts Frankies over the top is the owner(and his wife) are really involved with the bar. Bill(think that is right) was very friendly and helpful to his customers. Spoke with him briefly, nice guy.
I will take my Ole Miss back friends there when we go back to the CB in a few wks.
Hey, NashReb, I HAVE to be involved! If I weren't, I'd "miss" (pun intended) out on the opportunity to meet all the great fans that visit Frankie's from all over the place. Thanks for taking the time to write. Good luck against OSU this year! Should be a great fight! -BK

Altering a story is the same as telling a Big Lie to protect themselves from the consequences of having four brave Americans murders on their hands. These people pleaded for help; 0bama sent in an unarmed drone so he could watch the horrid event. Now he needs to alter the story so that he won´t be blamed for their murders. 0bama denied these four dead Americans any assistance, and they were murdered. He needs to take full responsibility.

Obama must immediately be impeached by the House for lying to the people. His presidency should not be allowed to escape without being stained by impeachment.

Purchased cover with Genesis grill one year ago....love my grill. The cover, now that's a bit of a different story. Through the winter while "puting on and taking off " the cover I noticed several cracks in the material. I went back to the point of purchase (Lowes) and told them about the issue...absolutely no help, told me there wasn't any warranty. So, I went home and called Weber, they were extremely helpful...seems there is a two year warranty and told me they would be sending me a new cover, which arrived within a few days. I work in the consumer products buisness and know that things do happen...this is where I expect the manufacturer to stand behind their product...which is exactly what the folks at Weber did. I will purchase other Weber accessories, but probably not from Lowes.

We have had our cover for just over 1 year and it has already cracked and the torn in multiple locations. In addition to this it has shrunk and no longer fits over our Genesis 360. I am extremely disappointed in this product and feel as though my decision to pay for the premium over rather than a big box off the shelf cover was a poor decision. I feel I am due a new cover....
I'm a better griller than most

I see I'm not the only one that is disappointed with the quality of the "Premium" cover. I bought my Genesis Grill in May of 2010 and the seams at the top of both sides began to come apart a little over a year after I purchased it (just outside the warranty). After dropping $500 on the grill I wanted to "Protect my investment" just as Weber recommends. Hey Weber...It should not be that difficult to source a better manufacturer to produce a higher quality/longer lasting cover...especially if it has your name on it. Hopefully, I can find another brand cover that will fit my grill because I refuse to purchase another Weber brand cover.
June 09, 2013
The cover lasted 4 years, but shrank and crumbled at the seams this year. I would have had to cut the cover off to remove, except for the fact it crumbled open for me. We didn't use the grill last summer due to the addition of a baby occupying our time, so the cover could have been a problem last year. I will replace with a cheap cover and happily keep replacing the cheap cover as needed, rather than risk the expense for an unknown product life of this cover. The grill looks brand new though and is of great quality.
I bought my new grill and cover 2 years ago. I have to replace the cover because it is cracking and has ripped. The grill is on a deck and I take excellent care of it. My last weber grill cover lasted 10 years!
I am a grill master
June 01, 2013
Love the grill, but the premium cover shrank in less than a year to where it was impossible to get back on without tearing at the corners, and the top finish also cracked in places from the sun. At the price, I will not buy another.
May 31, 2013
I received a second hand Genesis and I find it to be great!
The cover came with it and it's 5 years old and still looks and works great, say for the Velcro has deteriorated, easy fix!
The quality really is 2nd to none.....
May 11, 2013
I am on my second Weber barbeque grille, The first one was so wonderful I didn't hesitate for a moment to buy a second, and I gave the first one, still operating well and still covered by an intact, good condition cover to some less fortunate individuals. I bought a beautiful copper-colored E series grille and a premium (?) $54.99 cover for it. It has sat outside for 5 months. The previous one sat outside for TEN YEARS! Already, the new cover has cracks and holes and breakdowns all over it. It is TRASH! How is this possible from Weber? I want a new grille cover! I don't care if it costs $100. I want a grille cover as good as the one I gave away!! The one that was TEN YEARS OLD!!! What is up with this, Weber??

Found Lost Ring with Garrett Ace 250
Over 15 years ago, while painting the eves of our house, I went to wipe off the paint running down my hand and my ring went flying off. I was up high on a shed roof, so I saw it roll down and off the end of the roof. Over the next few months, there were many attempts to find it, crawling on the ground and pushing the grass around.
Just recently I purchased a GARRETT 250 from KELLYCO, put it together, read the instructions, watched the dvd and within a half hour of looking...Wallah! Found the ring...old paint still on it...AMAZING...couldn't be happier...think I found a new hobby. It was all new to me and I found the dvd extremely helpful...Thanks.

Rob Asghar, Contributor
I write about what success looks like today.
How great will Pope Francis' impact be? Beyond his impact within his own 1.2 billion-strong Roman Catholic Church, he may well redefine modern concepts of success, wealth and prestige for our larger society. (I say this as a non-Catholic.)
But let's be realistic. It won't happen overnight, and it won't happen without withering criticism of him along the way, from the left and right and, hell, even from the mafia, who are rumored to have placed him on a hit list because of his startlingly aggressive reforms.
The changes he may bring about are due to his leadership prowess (discussed more in a separate article) and his unsurpassed global platform. But they're also due to the fact that his values mirror some awakening aspirations of the larger world beyond his church walls.
Let's look at how the still-newish pope is likely to change society's concepts of success:
Francis is making it easier for ambitious people to value simplicity.
The hardest task for a top leader, religious or otherwise, is to pass up any of the swag bags and perks of high office. Enter Francis, who declined to live in the luxurious papal suite in order to remain in the relatively humbler Vatican guesthouse, and who chooses simple garments over ornate ones.
Francis might have seemed a bit naïve or quaint if he'd poped a generation or two ago, back when society worried less about environmental limits or sustainability. But millennials today are gripped by doubts about whether they can live at the posh levels of past generations, as well as suspicions that the ways of the past aren't sustainable. This pope will inspire them to make an impact that goes beyond having nice possessions.
Francis is changing how we distinguish between "important people" and "unimportant" ones.
While a Billy Graham seemed to take special pride in counseling presidents within the splendid halls of power, Francis has made a career of quietly heading out to slums in order to care for marginalized people. And, strikingly, he asks those people to pray for him, which is a subtle but powerful reminder that the people at society's margins too have something meaningful to give.
Francis is reintroducing a healthy tension between the concept of virtue and the practice of capitalism.
Just google up "Francis and antichrist," and you'll get some fascinating "proofs" that the pope has 666 tattooed somewhere on his body. In fact, Francis is more the anti-Ayn Rand, the polar opposite of that uber-capitalist who blamed the poor for their own misfortune.
I wrote a few days ago about the conundrum that arises when Christian belief come into contact with aggressive capitalism. Francis goes so far as to say that excessive admiration for capitalism can be a kind of idolatry, a worshipping of the golden calf.
Granted, Francis' pronouncements on capitalism may be imperfect or incomplete or misguided in the minds of some. Still, he is the first global religious leader in maybe centuries to bring up the elephant in the room, which is the tension between the Ayn Rand school of economics and the great world religions such as Christianity.
Francis is drawing a dividing line between high status and good character.
The photos of Francis clasping, kissing and blessing a disfigured man caused a global stir this past November.
We've seen many people be pope or priest or politician—but we've seen few use their power in a more humanizing manner. "Character is destiny," Heraclitus said. And in that moment, Francis exemplified a manner of character that most of us admire but which few of us could match.
Such displays of character make critics treat him with far greater respect than they otherwise would. And it is such displays of character that will remind Catholics, non-Catholics, agnostics and atheists alike that power and position aren't ends in themselves. Rather, power and position are means for displaying virtue and character.
Francis is building a path for civil discussion of our worst hot-button issues.
For the moment, at least, it's good to be pope. Francis has managed to make himself the darling of some progressives. Still, expect the honeymoon to end soon enough, and for Francis to come increasingly under fire by progressives as they realize he will not go as far as they would hope on issues such as gender and sex. Meanwhile, Francis has already been pilloried by Rush Limbaugh and others on the right for being a Marxist in shepherd's robing.
Our times are ridiculously contentious. Conservatives bristle at how Francis states the Occupy movement's case with greater eloquence than that movement itself could muster. And many progressives grouse about how the Catholic church is the same old church despite its new tone.
Still, Francis should manage to unite liberals and conservatives in some meaningful way. Both may come to understand that Francis is motivated by loftier and more complex values than black-and-white partisanship.
In that case, a more civil tone would finally be possible in our hopelessly gridlocked democratic societies. And that may well become Francis' greatest contribution of all.
In re the following:
"Still, he is the first global religious leader in maybe centuries to bring up the elephant in the room, which is the tension between the Ayn Rand school of economics and the great world religions such as Christianity."
I believe the correct comparison is to the Von Mises, Hayek, Friedman School, otherwise known as the Austrian school. Ayn Rand was a novelist who created a caricature of a point of without tradition, history, evidence or coherence.
We know now that economic growth has lifted more people out of poverty and brought more prosperity in a 200 years than in all of recorded human history.
The pope either does not know this or does not seem to care. His role will indeed change much, but his economic ideas are counter-productive.
Sure, but it is not me who does so. The Austrians and all economists do so.
Free markets are based on people who don't know one another from all parts of the world co-operating with one another, each one behaving in their immediate self interest but then contributing to the next step, a product, a service or a sale.
As an illustration, look at Friedman's famous story about how a pencil is made.
It is not greedy avaricious self centered people who cause growth and prosperity as many would describe. Just the opposite.
Article in NYTimes op ed yesterday or Tuesday about cooperation being at the heart of growth and economic activity.
Insofar as pope decries idolatry of money as an end in itself, he is neither novel or particularly creative, but it is a good reminder.
This with-me-or-against-me point of view is needlessly contentious and unproductive. Just because capitalistic economic growth has lifted more people out of poverty than ever before doesn't mean that it is beyond reproach or reform. As an avowed liberal, I am in awe of the transformative power of democratic capitalism in alleviating poverty and misery and sincerely believe that it has decisively proved to be a better solution than marxism, authoritarianism, and anything else out there. But is it perfect? Nothing is.
The pope never said that capitalism hasn't brought great benefits to human civilization, which is what Mr. Kenny implies in his last paragraph above. The pope's critique of capitalism is valid and to start painting him as an extreme anti-capitalist for pointing out ill effects that most people can plainly acknowledge strikes me as just another useless grenade lobbed into the already crater-filled arena of contemporary discourse.
Let's trample on straw men forever!
Guess your unaware of the income gap trickle down has caused.
In real numbers were worse off than we have ever been and it is getting worse not better unless you are the 1 percent.
"We know now that economic growth has lifted more people out of poverty and brought more prosperity in a 200 years than in all of recorded human history.
The pope either does not know this or does not seem to care. His role will indeed change much, but his economic ideas are counter-productive."
This comment is at the Heart of the the Gridlock. Just because the Pope or other Liberals slam Capitalism, doesn't mean they do not understand the benefits of free-markets, nor do they want Socialism.
It's understanding that capitalism unleashes the 'Devil' in a small but very powerful few that obtain so much power that it is used to dominate or to acquire even more power at the expense of the health livelihood of millions.
It's the same as saying "Military Generals do no care about, or will ever understand Peace because they are always coming of better ways to to defeat there enemy."
This is just as false as your impression of the Pope and other Liberals.
We (Liberals) are not socialists and understand and applaud the virtues that the free-market can bring, but are also fully aware of abuses and social carnage it can unleash in the hands of the wrong people, thus the need to regulate and limit some freedoms.
It depends on if people are actually religious or just blowing smoke like usual.
Research the popes past relationship with the Junta in Argentina.
Pope Francis seems to be a bible reader. I am not a Catholic, I am a Christian. He seems to follow the biblical teachings of Jesus, not the Roman Catholic Church. As for your comment about Billy Graham, I think the presidents called on him in times of crisis. Call and ask him. I like the new pope!
JTD, I am sorry to break it to you but Pope Francis is living out the Roman Catholic faith. Hope you have the opportunity to learn what the RCC actually believes and not just what people say about it.
Truthfully, I am consistently surprised by how taken everyone is with him because to me, as a Catholic, he is doing everything any good Catholic would do; though he might be a bit bolder about it. I do appreciate him though, now people don't look at me as strangely when I do things to live simply and charitably.

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST Plays TPAC's Andrew Jackson Hall 6/15-20
Disney's Beauty and the Beast, the award-winning worldwide smash hit Broadway musical, is coming to Nashville as a special of the HCA/TriStar Broadway at TPAC series and presented by Miller and Martin PLLC. Produced by NETworks Presentations, this elaborate theatrical production will come to life on stage at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center, June 15-20, 2010. For information on the production, visit www.BeautyAndTheBeastOnTour.com.
Tickets to Disney's Beauty and the Beast are on sale now, and range from $25-68, depending upon performance time and seat locations. For tickets, visit www.tpac.org, call 615/782-4040, or visit the TPAC Box Office (Downtown or at Davis-Kidd Booksellers in The Mall at Green Hills). For groups of 10 or more, contact TPAC Group Sales at 615/782-4060 or email@example.com.
"'How did they do that?' is the question heard most when seeing this stunning production," said Kathleen O'Brien, TPAC's president and CEO. "This is Disney magic at its finest, and audiences young and old won't be disappointed with the clever combination of fantasy and reality brought to life through brilliant costume, set, special effects and song. School's out for the summer, and enjoying live theatre as a family is a great option for those who may not be traveling this year."
Disney's Beauty and the Beast features the animated film's Academy Award®-winning score with music by Alan Menken and lyrics by the late Howard Ashman, with additional songs with music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Tim Rice. The book is written by Linda Woolverton.
The original creators of the Broadway production are together again for this new touring production! The play is directed by Rob Roth and choreographed by Matt West, with Costume Design by Ann Hould-Ward (Tony Award® winner for her work on Disney's Beauty and the Beast), Lighting Design by Natasha Katz, Scenic Design by Stanley A. Meyer, Sound Design by John Petrafesa Jr. and Music Supervision by Michael Kosarin.
Director Rob Roth: "It has been wonderful to bring the entire original design team back together to work on this new production of Beauty and the Beast. As a director, it is rare to have the opportunity to revisit your work fifteen years later. Hopefully, I've grown and developed as an artist, along with my collaborators, and we can bring 15 years of experience to this new production. We have remained very close as a team over the years of producing the show around the world, and it has been so much fun getting together to re-explore and re-invent the show for this new NETworks tour. The theme of 'Beauty' is about seeing past the exterior into the heart of someone, and this is reflected in the design for the show, which is about transparency and layers, seeing past one thing and into another."
Disney's Beauty and the Beast is the classic story of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped in a spell placed by an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity.

"Please continue sharing generosity & compassion in your lives, thus honoring the memory of our special young woman."
--- Janice Sacks, mother of Niki Powell
It is impossible to provide an overview of Operation Nightwatch during 2012 without remembering Niki Powell. Niki's loss marked a spot on our timeline which has affected us ever since.
Yet Janice's gracious words have served as an inspiration. We have sought not to have our work interrupted, but to continue in our own gracious way extending the "generosity and compassion" to which she encourages us.
It's our hope that in doing so, the memory of Niki will indeed live on.
I The Hospitality Centers
Our work downtown continued at its usual levels in 2012, serving anywhere from 65 to 110 people an evening. The interactions fostered by a strong cadre of volunteers further built the reputation of Nightwatch among folks on the streets, and we remained a refuge for those who in the late hours of the day suffered a need for blankets, coats, or other items to get them through the night. In a couple of instances, the money we had in our Blanket/Socks Fund saved us, as we had to place special orders for blankets and socks when in-kind donations ran low and needs remained high.
Our greatest concern through the year centered on the future of our host, St. Stephen's Episcopal Church. As are many small churches, St. Stephen's is struggling with dwindling numbers and demanding expenses. While it is an exemplar in providing services to the community, none of its activities serve toward providing income as insurance those services might continue. Though St. Stephen's is likely not facing imminent closure, the Board of Directors thought it prudent to begin investigating other options for a downtown "home" for Nightwatch in the event a crash should come.
2012 marked the first full year our SE Hospitality Center was in operation at the Clackamas Service Center. In the early months, only a handful of guests were showing up and we begged for volunteers. By the end of the year, the SE Center was often filled to capacity, both in terms of volunteers and guests. A real community has been born. Credit for it all is due to Del Nelson who, fully as a labor of love, keeps the whole thing running.
The Mobile Hospitality Center continues going out to SE on Friday evenings, serving another community that has come to depend on its presence. A rotation of volunteers organized by Peggy Gray of Lents Baptist Church manages the Fridays, including the service of a full hot meal.
II The Nightwatch Health Care Initiative
2012 was the year we launched the Nightwatch ealth Care Initiative. Aware that available health services were inadequate to meet the needs of the people we serve, our goal was to build a dependable network of volunteer health professionals to work through our downtown Hospitality Center and Mobile Hospitality Center to fill some of the vacuum. To that end, we used a grant from the Spirit Mountain Community Fund to hire Wendy Malcomson as part-time (12 hours/week) Health Care Coordinator for one year to get that network established.
The year proved to be quite the learning experience for us. Given liability and credentialing issues, opening a health care facility is not as simple as bringing a willing professional on board and hanging a shingle over the door. Research needed to be done and supplies procured. Wendy spent most of the first part of the year in those efforts, and our first health professionals only began offering their services at the end of September. They were students studying to become medical assistants who came to us through a partnership we had built with Heald College.
Since they have been on site, however, the need for health services has certainly confirmed itself. Over the course of only the first few weeks, our health volunteers have dressed various wounds, dealt with seizures, conducted a pregnancy test (and offered pre-natal counseling), diagnosed a case of sepsis, sending someone to the ER, and offered guidance to a number who simply sought a professional to talk about their diabetes, their recurrent headaches, or their alcoholism. Up to ten people a night have sought assistance—ten people a night who heretofore had been neglected.
At the end of the year, the state of the Health Care Initiative remains fragile. But our Board of Directors has established a Health Care Oversight Task Force under the leadership of Board member Dr. John Hardy to strategize how to continue at least our current level of coverage into the new year.
III Grants and Other Funding
The story of Nightwatch over the last few years—as evidenced even by the previous paragraphs—has been one of expansion. The motivation has arisen from our simple perception that over the past 30 years Nightwatch has been in existence, the homeless situation in Portland has evolved. No longer are homeless folks to be found dominantly downtown; furthermore, the greatest segment of the homeless is not single adults, but families. Yet service agencies have largely not adapted to this changing situation and many of those among the "new" homeless remain severely underserved. Thus, Nightwatch began its outreach in Southeast Portland. After others learned what we were doing in SE, we began receiving inquiries about possibly extending our outreach to other areas as well.
Yet with our current staff configuration, we were aware we would be unable to take any more upon ourselves unless we also expanded our staff.
To that end, we applied for—and received—a grant from The Collins Foundation. The grant for $18,000 over two years ($10,000 the first year, $8,000 the second) was to go toward funding a part-time Outreach Coordinator. In November we hired Mikaila Smith to fill that position. Mikaila, a social-work student at Portland State, had been working with as an intern but proved to have such aptitude in her position as to be ideal for the job. Mikaila intends to stay with us at least for the next few years, so she will become even better as her experience grows.
Nightwatch also benefitted this year from being included in Willamette Week's holiday Give!Guide campaign. We hoped to raise at least $2,500 through this campaign to meet a matching grant. By campaign's conclusion, we raised just short of twice that amount. The campaign, which encourages contributions by new donors, also brought us over 40 new contributors, adding a significant boost to our support base.
Also for the holiday season, the Nightwatch Board purchased a page in the Portland Business Journal's annual Book of Giving in the hope of cultivating corporate and business support. Unfortunately, there was no evidence of any return on that investment.
IV Prospects
With our Mobile Hospitality Center being idle six nights of the week, we spent the year investigating options for putting it more into use. When the city of Portland greenlighted a project allowing churches to use their parking lots for car-campers, we offered the MHC to the churches as a resource their campers might use for its toilet and cooking facilities. We received no takers. (In fact, few churches were able to jump the hurdles to even take advantage of the city's largesse and put their parking lots to use.)
We also identified three areas of the metro area for the MHC to serve next because of their significant homeless populations: Rockwood, Gateway, and Vancouver. In conversation with Steve Kimes of Rockwood's Anawim Christian Community, we learned that many folks were already responding to Rockwood's needs, and Steve directed us to the St. John's neighborhood instead. Contacts with those in St. John's have been encouraging, and we will begin explorations there early in 2013.
We have also had conversations with folks in Vancouver. Some interest has been shown, and we will be continuing investigations there.
V Board Expansion
Our expanded and broadened efforts was felt on the Board level, as each new activity brought at least a couple of more balls into the mix that had to be juggled (the activity itself needed oversight, while volunteer, community, and financial support for it needed to be nurtured). Discerning that it was too small to succeed in keeping all the balls in the air, the Board expanded its size from nine to twelve members.
New members who came onto the Board this year were John Hoover, Eric Dahlin, Carolyn Norton, and Amanda Tabaka-Fernandez.
VI. Web site and Social Networking
We revamped our Web site this year using a new Content Management System (Joomla). While we hope the new site will prove to be more attractive and user-friendly to users, it also provides the advantage over our previous software in that content can be easily updated, so information will also be current.
Integrated into the Web site is a "Donate Now" button which allows convenient contributions. Prior to this renovation, we had been using PayPal as our vendor, which few people used due to its cumbersomeness. The "Donate Now" has evidenced its worth in that in 2012 brought us over $23,500 through donors' use of it.
In 2012 we also expanded our social media presence through Facebook and Twitter. We haven't yet built much of a Twitter following, but now have 216 Facebook friends.
VII Life After Niki
Needless to say, the death of Niki Powell prompted serious evaluation of our internal policies. We were soon to learn that it also led a number of other homeless agencies to also examine their own policies regarding volunteers and clients. But that fact in itself illustrated that all realized that what happened at Nightwatch could have happened to any of them.
In the wake of the tragedy, we didn't have to put a Boundaries Policy into place because we already had one. It occupied an entire page of our Volunteers' Manual. But there was no guaranteeing volunteers were actually reading the manual. Therefore we adopted the new practice of having all volunteers actually sign a copy of the policy as an acknowledgement that they had read and understood it. This new practice was introduced at a series of Boundaries Trainings that were offered both downtown and in SE at the end of August.
And wherever Nightwatch works in the years to come, we resolve to be extra vigilant so that we might pride ourselves in making ours a safe and welcoming place for all.

Summary of The Triumph of Deborah Summary of The Triumph of Deborah Reviews for The Triumph of Deborah An Excerpt from The Triumph of Deborah
The richly imagined tale of Deborah, the courageous Biblical warrior who saved her people from certain destruction
In ancient Israel, war is looming. Deborah, a highly respected leader, has coerced the warrior Barak into launching a strike against the neighboring Canaanites. Against all odds he succeeds, returning triumphantly with Asherah and Nogah, daughters of the Canaanite King, as his prisoners. But military victory is only the beginning of the turmoil, as a complex love triangle develops between Barak and the two princesses.
Deborah, recently cast off by her husband, develops a surprising affinity for Barak. Yet she struggles to rebuild her existence on her own terms, while also groping her way toward the greatest triumph of her life.
Filled with brilliantly vivid historical detail, The Triumph of Deborah is the absorbing and riveting tale of one of the most beloved figures in the Old Testament, and a tribute to feminine strength and independence.
The third book in Eva Etzioni-Halevys novels featuring women of the Bible. This is biblical fiction at its best.
