THE 40 YEAR-OLD VIRGIN will make you laugh — and there is no greater gift in the world today. This entertaining film probes the universal fears of sex, intimacy and chest hair, and follows in the tradition of classic American comedies; it is character-driven, sincere and insightful and will have audiences reexamining their own hang-ups — with a smile. The film also introduces the world to a new leading man of laughter — Steve Carell.

A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE is a powerful insight into America's obsession with violence and how it relates to the roles we play, the disguises we choose and the truth in those choices. With surprises at every turn, the film turns classic movie elements on their head and asks us to look at genre from a new perspective. Sexy and bloody, alluring and revolting, the film's delicate balancing act is artfully captured in each suspense-filled shot by David Cronenberg and his gifted creative ensemble.

BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN is one of the great love stories in American film. The revolutionary subject matter paints a portrait of passion, longing and loss against the sweeping backdrop of the changing American West. The film is a triumph of acting — Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal bring power and poignancy to two people caught in an emotional maelstrom, without the means to understand their feelings, or the words to express them. The film is a tragic meditation on loneliness, and yet a powerful celebration of friendship and love beyond our control.

CAPOTE is a vividly detailed portrait of an elusive American literary icon at a turning point in his life. Philip Seymour Hoffman inhabits Truman Capote in a performance that captures every nuance of one of the 20th Century's most flamboyant and intriguing characters — layering wit, pain, love and ambition in a crucible of creative and ethical choice. The filmmakers tell this revealing story with economy and power showing how the writer achieved everything he ever wanted and lost his soul.

CRASH is a cinematic fantasia on the duality of man — exploring with astonishing candor how we are divided and tormented by race. There is a sublime poetry to the film that emerges from the union of words and images, using the automobile as a metaphor for how we both distance and touch each other, sometimes violently. The film is distinguished by its extraordinary writing and an acting ensemble that fires on all pistons.

GOOD NIGHT, AND GOOD LUCK is a refreshingly spare reflection on a controversial and difficult time in the 1950s and, at the same time, an explosive examination of the current American news landscape. Brilliantly choreographed and co-written by director George Clooney, the film illuminates the burden of courage in a free press at odds with both its government and its corporate parent. Clooney's ingenious use of archival footage adds to the great sense of fear and incredulity that these events took place in America. The film's greatest contribution may be to remind audiences that "Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it."

KING KONG is why we go to the movies. It's a love story. It's funny. And it's also a chest-thumping, larger-than-life, thrill-a-minute adventure tale that knows no equal in its use of digital effects to tell a story. And though Peter Jackson continues to awe audiences with his imaginative use of new technologies, it is his great love and respect for the original film that both preserves and expands upon the themes that have made it a classic. In that sense, KING KONG is not only a valentine to American film history — it is American film history.

MUNICH reminds us how lucky we are to live in the time when Steven Spielberg is making movies. This is another landmark contribution to American film from one of its master storytellers. The movie asks difficult questions about the moral complexities of vengeance — and who, ultimately, stands proud in the name of family and home. Great movies stir great debate, and that Spielberg would embrace such a controversial subject and present it as a prayer for peace is as brave and bold a move as we would expect from one of this country's great artists.

THE SQUID AND THE WHALE is a funny film about pain — the deep, aching pain of a family dissolved. It is rare for a film to be comedic and heartbreaking beyond cliches, but the film's standout performances capture the characters with such truth that one cannot help but feel that we've lived with them — and lost them. Made for relatively little money, the movie also reflects the great spectrum of budgets in American film and reminds us that a personal vision, great heart and the commitment of a talented creative ensemble are priceless.

SYRIANA is a complex and intelligent political thriller that demands its audience become an active participant, compelling us to think — and to think globally. In a year when the United States' reliance on oil bubbled up and over the headlines, Stephen Gaghan and his creative ensemble have masterfully woven together a number of plotlines that could each have been a film in itself. The result is a masterwork of storytelling, where each scene leaves your heart racing and your mind engaged.

has changed the face of television — one hour, one minute, one second at a time. This is a masterpiece of episodic storytelling and continues to deal with the bright color issues in America's war on terror with a degree of difficulty that is off today's television charts. Powerful and involving, with characters who are more fully realized with each season, the show still has viewers on the edge of their seats, both riveted to the action and begging, pleading for a modicum of relief.
soars light years beyond the expectations of science fiction on television. Au courant and hard-hitting, it's one of the best series today about United States entanglements in the war on terror, addressing the moral quandary — when at war, when does a society become that which it opposes? It is this kind of deep thinking in space that makes the show both a cautionary tale and a rip-roaring, out-of-this-world adventure.
is a Shakespearean epic in spurs and continues to blaze new trails in television as it enters its second season. David Milch's use of language continues to astound, and when the superb ensemble acting, production design and costumes are added to the artistry of the page, the viewer enters a fully realized world of exceptional heft — which is just one of the four-letter words that best describe DEADWOOD.
GREY'S ANATOMY is one hour of pure pleasure each week — a medical mixer on our need to connect and a McDreamy reminder that one of television's primary goals is to entertain. The program hit its stride in 2005, intertwining life and death and love in a scintillating package — one that is enriched by the show's color-blind casting and bedpan humor.
has redefined the medical television show. No longer a world where an idealized doctor has all the answers or a hospital where gurneys race down the hallways, HOUSE's focus is on the pharmacological — and the intellectual demands of being a doctor. The trial-and-error of new medicine skillfully expands the show beyond the format of a classic procedural, and at the show's heart, a brilliant but flawed physician is doling out the prescriptions — a fitting symbol for modern medicine.
is a tribute to the intellect of its viewing audience — with a dozen major characters and a vast number of story lines leading us through the wilds of a remote island and the bizarre and thrilling mysteries that are found there. This year, the show dared to go too far — and succeeded — mostly by carrying the story forward through flashback. The creative ensemble utilized the device with such effectiveness that it has created a new form of storytelling — characters are more finely developed, mysteries are intensified, and yet audiences are never lost...and always wanting more.
takes an American hero sacrosanct after 9/11 — the firefighter — and with great respect, honors its legacy by celebrating the struggle under the symbol. Denis Leary is the engine of the show and has created one of the most self-destructive characters in recent memory; one who rescues, but desperately needs to be saved. That the show has life after 9/11 is not only a tribute to the creative ensemble, but also to the healing power of the nation, who loves a hero most when it finds him human.
SLEEPER CELL is a frighteningly real look at the clash of civilizations in a post-9/11 world. The program peels away at the mundanity of American suburbia and exposes the terror that lives just below the surface. Complex, and well-plotted; nuanced, and bold — the show's most significant achievement is that it is, simply, dramatically plausible...which makes it all the more terrifying.
SOMETIMES IN APRIL is a shining example of what television is capable of — illuminating, educating, and in the process, transcending the pain of a subject that would otherwise be impossible to embrace emotionally. After all, how does one tell the story of Rwandan genocide? Here the creative ensemble's courage and artistry has earned them the right not only to present the historically complex saga, but also to offer the question of reconciliation. Spanning this chasm is the function of art in our world.
is a celebration of what it is to be a young woman — and a welcome alternative to the feminine model that is threatening to consume American culture. The show is smart and cool and clever — all virtues that are lauded in its geeky heroine. The show's writing and casting also transcend the teen detective log line by not imagining Veronica as a super girl, but a teenager with a strong father figure and loyal friends who live in a community with complicated images of race, class and family — like all of us.

Coconut Aminos 16.9 Fl. Oz - Coconut Secret
Coconut Aminos vs. Soy-based sauces
Among the many nutritional benefits of our Coconut Aminos product, the most notable is its impressive amino acid content compared to soy-based sauces. Commonly described as the "building blocks of protein," amino acids are vitally important to human health. They contribute to the repair and rebuilding of muscle tissue, help to enhance overall brain and nervous system funciton, and assist in boosting the immune system and physical energy levels. Second only to water protein is on of the most important substances in our bodies which is why it is nutritionally beneficial to consume a diet that is rich in amino acids.
A comparison between coconut tree sap and soy, shows that coconut sap contains up to 14 times the amino acid content of soy. Many soy sauces on the market are fermented by first soaking the soybeans in water and salt, and then adding specific cultures of molds, yeasts and bacteria to help catalyze the fermentation process. Coconut Aminos is made from coconut tree sap, which comes right out of the tree so vital, active and alive nutrients, that is only blending with our own sun dried mineral-rich sea salt and aged, without the need for a fermentation booster or added water. As well, the majority of conventional soy sauces on the market are made with non-organic, genetically modified (GMO) soybeans. Long term use of unfermented soy0related products has led to an increase in soy allergies, a disruption in proper thyroid function, and an overload of estrogens in the body. Infants fed exclusively soy-based formula have 13,000 - 22,000 times more estrogen compounds in their blood than babies fed milk-based formula, the equivalent of five birth control pills per day.
Health Secrets of Coconut Aminos
When the coconut tree is tapped, it produces a highly nutrient-rich "sap" that exudes from the coconut blossoms. This sap is very low glycemic (GI of only 35), is an abundant source of amino acids, minerals, vitamin C, broad-spectrum B vitamins, and has a nearly neutral pH.
The "Gran Molucas Sea Salt" used in our Coconut Aminos, garners its name from the exotic, tropical island of Mindanao, the 2nd largest island in teh Philippines. It is surrounded on all sides by converging Pacific Ocean waters ~ the Sulu Sea to the West, the Celebes Sea to the South,and the Philippine Sea to the East.
A local culinary heritage in Mindanao, this unbleached, unrefined, naturally white sea salt, is fed only by the sun and the sea. It is hand-harvested by local salt producers working as their forefathers did, in their ancestral salt fields.
After many days of labor, the salt is then sun-dried (to evaporate excess moisture) in open-air cages lined with clay bricks. The result, is a distinctly flavorful and nutritious, mineral-rich, unrefined sea salt.
Recipe Tips:
Use Coconut Aminos like soy sauce in dressings, marinades, sautes, and with sushi. "We love it so much we pour it over almost everything!"
Certified Organic Coconut Sap - naturally aged and blended with Sun Dried, Mineral-Rich Sea Salt. THIS PRODUCT IS BOTTLED IN A FACILITY THAT DOES NOT HANDLE OR PROCESS TREE NUTS OF ANY KIND.

Critics are raving about what's currently playing at Gesher Theater. It's an adaptation of a classic Israeli novel "A Pigeon and a Boy" about a romance during the 1948 Arab Israeli war. The stage is on a steep tilt, actors perform vignettes framed by flowing beige drapes, and the soundtrack is evocative. There's an elaborate theatricality at Gesher that you don't see on many other stages in Israel. "There's a long heritage of theater in Russia that we don't have in Israel," said Israeli-born actor Yuval Yanai, who performs with Gesher. "The sets are very elaborate. And they are very big. The visual aspect of the theater is very, very important. So, you know, the things we know about theater [are] less evolved than what they know about the theater." Russian theater, of course, has a long and storied history: Think Chechov and Pushkin. That tradition found its way to Israel 20 years ago. Lena Krendlin, the director of Gesher, said that as the Soviet Union was collapsing, she and a group of Jewish theater directors sat in her Moscow kitchen and plotted their escape. "I don't think we wanted to come to Israel. I think we wanted to leave Russia. Like, you want to go out of the prison. It was the feeling. We wanted fresh air. We thought probably, we will come to Israel, we will establish some theater, and we will live like kings," Krendlin says. That's not exactly how things turned out. She and the group of directors and actors all moved to Israel together. As they were preparing for their first show in 1991, the Gulf War broke out. Iraqi Scuds rained down on Tel Aviv in the middle of rehearsals. They dodged in and out of bomb shelter wearing gas masks. Not a very encouraging start to their new lives. But the war ended just in time for their debut. "We started with "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" by Tom Stoppard. It was a very strange decision by our artistic director. Because everybody told us, you have to start with play about Russian immigrants. It's supposed to be very familiar, very miserable, very simple. And we started from I think the most complicated play in the world," she says. The cast performed it entirely in Russian. Israeli audiences listened to a Hebrew translation through headsets – and they loved it. One newspaper critic hailed Gesher's debut as "The Russian Miracle of Israeli Theater." The cast kept performing in Russian, and a few years later, started doing Hebrew versions on alternating nights. The actors still didn't have a firm grasp of Hebrew – they rehearsed from scripts transliterated into Cyrillic characters. Backstage, it feels like you're in Moscow. Stagehands and directors chat in Russian. The costume boxes are all labeled in Russian, too. On stage, though, it's somewhere in between Moscow and Tel Aviv. Today all of Gesher's plays are in Hebrew with Russian and English subtitles projected on a screen above the stage. Some of the actors speak Hebrew in thick Russian accents. But half of the cast doesn't speak a word of Russian, and neither does most of the audience. So is it a Russian theater or an Israeli theater? The director responds, "When we are asked 'who you are,' we are starting to think. It's a sign that we are in between. Probably we are the bridge. You know, our theater, the name of the theater is bridge." Gesher is Hebrew for bridge. "One side of the bridge we're in Russia, and we pass this bridge slowly slowly, and I think now we are close to another side," Krendlin said. Gesher Theater is hailed as one of Israel's leading theaters. Now Gesher's artistic staff has decided to reveal its secrets: It's planning to launch a school for aspiring Israeli actors and directors.

Q: In your practice you often make the point that leadership is a dialogue, not a monologue. How does dialogue inspire a shared vision and enable others to act?
A: Leadership is a relationship, and strong relationships are built on mutual understanding. You can get to that mutual understanding only through conversation and dialogue.
This means that you can't adopt the view that visions come from the top down. You have to start engaging others in a collective dialogue about the future, not delivering a monologue. You can't mobilize people to willingly travel to places they don't want to go. No matter how grand the dream of an individual visionary, if others don't see in it the possibility of realizing their hopes and desires, they won't follow voluntarily or wholeheartedly.
To become an exemplary leader, you must develop a deep appreciation of the collective hopes, dreams, and aspirations of your constituents. Constituents come to believe in their leaders—to see them as worthy of their trust—when they believe that the leaders have the constituents' best interests at heart.
Leaders who are clearly interested only in their own agendas, their own advancement, and their own wellbeing will not be followed willingly. You have to reach out and attend to others, be present with them, and listen to them.
This isn't just theory. We know from our research that when leaders seek consensus around shared values, constituents are more positive. People who report that their managers engage in dialogue regarding common values feel a significantly stronger sense of personal effectiveness than individuals who feel that they're wasting energy trying to figure out what they're supposed to be doing.
Jim Kouzes is the Dean's Executive Fellow of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University. Together with Barry Posner, he is author of The Leadership Challenge—now in its fifth edition—and over a thirty other books and workbooks on leadership and leadership development.

Sacerdote Great Names Series to Host Nobel Peace Prize Recipients
Two recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize will participate in a panel at Hamilton College as part of the Sacerdote Great Names Series on Wednesday, April 24, at 7:30 p.m., in the Margaret Bundy Scott Field House.
The event coincides with the 100th anniversary of Hamilton's own Nobel Peace Prize winner, 1864 graduate and Clinton native Elihu Root, who won the 1912 award.
April's panel will include Iranian lawyer Shirin Ebadi, who won the Nobel Prize in 2003, and Bernard Kouchner, the co-founder and former president of Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders), who received the award in 1999. A third Nobel Peace Prize recipient is being considered for the panel. The panel will be moderated by Edward "Ned" Walker '62, the Christian A. Johnson Distinguished Professor of Global Political Theory at Hamilton and former U.S. Ambassador to Israel, the Arab Republic of Egypt and the United Arab Emirates.
The Nobel laureates will each speak for 10 to 15 minutes about prospects for world peace and then respond to questions. The lecture and panel are free and open to the public. Additional information about shuttles and parking will be announced in April.
The panel will bring to seven the number of former Nobel Peace Prize winners who have spoken at Hamilton as part of the Sacerdote Series, which hosted its first speaker, General Colin Powell, in 1996. April's event marks the first time the Sacerdote Series has hosted a panel, although political strategists James Carville and Mary Matalin appeared together in 1996. Previous events have included presentations by Elie Wiesel, Margaret Thatcher, Desmond Tutu, Jimmy Carter, Bill Cosby, Bill Clinton, Jon Stewart and Condoleezza Rice.
Shirin Ebadi
An Iranian lawyer and human rights activist, Shirin Ebadi was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2003 for her significant and pioneering efforts for democracy and human rights, especially the rights of women and children. She is the first Iranian and the first Muslim woman to receive the prize.
Ebadi is well known by the general public in her country for the legal defense of victims of the conservative faction's attack on freedom of speech and political freedom.
With Iranian-American co-author Azadeh Moaveni, Ebadi is the author of the memoirs Iran Awakening: One Woman's Journey to Reclaim Her Life and Country and Iran Awakening: A Memoir of Revolution and Hope. Her latest, The Golden Cage: Three Brothers, Three Choices, One Destiny, was published in 2011.
Ebadi has also written a number of academic books and articles focused on human rights, including The Rights of the Child: A Study of Legal Aspects of Children's Rights in Iran, published with support from UNICEF, and History and Documentation of Human Rights in Iran. She is the founder and leader of the Association for Support of Children's Rights in Iran.
Ebadi argues for a new interpretation of Islamic law that is in harmony with vital human rights such as democracy, equality before the law, religious freedom and freedom of speech. She also advocates for the rights of the Bahá'i religious community, which has long struggled with a variety of problems and prejudices in Iran.
Ebadi earned a law degree from the University of Tehran. From 1975 to 1979 she served as president of the city court of Tehran—one of the first female judges in Iran but was forced to resign in 1979 after the revolution in 1979.
Bernard Kouchner
Bernard Kouchner is a medical doctor by training and is perhaps best known for being the co-founder and former president of Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders). The Nobel Peace Prize-winning humanitarian organization is made up of voluntary medical personnel who contribute their time and expertise to assist in situations of emergency or inadequate medical care in the developing world. Kouchner organized humanitarian operations to Somalia, El Salvador, Lebanon and Vietnam. In addition, he led field operations in Cambodia, Thailand, Uruguay, Peru, Guatemala and Honduras.
The first person to challenge the Red Cross' stance of neutrality and silence in wars and massacres, Kouchner has played an important role in international humanitarian efforts for more than 20 years. As France's minister of health and humanitarian affairs, he convinced the U.N. to accept "the right to interfere" resolution and after devastating civil wars in the Balkans, served as special representative to U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan in Kosovo. Kouchner continues to promote universal access to medical care and to take part in international efforts in the fight against AIDS.
Kouchner has been influential in the French political scene, holding a number of ministerial positions in different French administrations for more than 18 years. He served until 2010 as France's minister of health and before that as minister of state for humanitarian action and minister of state for social integration. He was also professor of public health at the Health and Development Department of the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (CNAM). He has been the Foreign Minister of France for the last four years.
Kouchner is the author of several books and co-founder of the news magazines L'Evenement and Actuel. He is the recipient of several human rights awards, including the Dag Hammarskjold Prize and the Prix Europa.
Hamilton alumnus Elihu Root was named the winner of the 1912 Nobel Peace Prize, which was awarded belatedly in 1913. Root served as President William McKinley's Secretary of War and then Secretary of State, and was for decades a leading figure in American public life. According to his Nobel biography, Root felt that international arbitration "represented mankind's best chance to achieve world peace...but he also believed that it would take much time, wisdom, patience, and toil to implement it effectively."

ACRE, Israel, Jan. 10 (UPI) -- Israeli archaeologists say they've discovered a 1,500-year-old ceramic stamp used to mark baked goods as kosher.
The Israel Antiquities Authority found the kosher 'bread stamp' bearing the image of a menorah during excavations at Horbat Uza, east of Acre, Haaretz reported Tuesday.
Experts say they believe it belonged to a bakery providing kosher bread to the Jews of Acre in the Byzantine period.
"A number of stamps bearing an image of a menorah are known from different collections," Gilad Jaffe and Danny Syon, the directors of the excavation, said.
"The Temple Menorah, being a Jewish symbol par excellence, indicates the stamps belonged to Jews, unlike Christian bread stamps with the cross pattern which were much more common in the Byzantine period," they said.
"The stamp is important because it proves that a Jewish community existed in the settlement of Uza in the Christian-Byzantine period," Syon said. "The presence of a Jewish settlement so close to Acre -- a region that was definitely Christian at this time -- constitutes an innovation in archaeological research."
The stamp bears the image of a seven-branched menorah and Greek letters possible spelling the Launtius, common among Jews of the period.
"This is probably the name of the baker from Horbat Uza," Jaffe and Syon said.

While the group was running a few laps around the house screaming, I decided to start off with a game I had planned for a little later on. I got their attention by asking one of them if they thought they could balance one of these items on their head like the Cat in the Hat does in the story The Cat in the Hat.
Then we tried another game - musical hats. I had the kids sit in a circle and take turns putting on this hat and passing it along until the music stopped. The child who had the hat on their head when the music stopped got to have a turn being the one to control the music for a round. I think pushing the pause button on the music may have even been more fun than passing the hat around.
By now they had settled down enough to do a craft. I had cut out some egg cartons and gathered some glue, pipe cleaners, pom poms, googly eyes and bingo dot markers. The idea was for them to make a "Seuss creation" of their own. Once again, the glue was highly popular. I let their own imaginations go to work for these- I didn't give them any expectation or guidance on what to create. I wanted to see what they would come up with on their own.
I kept snack time simple- we just had mandarin oranges and crackers. I also popped some popcorn they could munch on while we sat down to read through a couple of the books.
Even though our play group started out a little on the wild side this time, I think it turned out to be a success in the end.
What kind of Dr. Seuss fun are you having?

Freelance political soundbyte-for-hire Sarah Palin appeared on Fox News yesterday to provide some expert analysis on the Iowa caucuses, and also to dazzle the viewing audience with her new, wavy hair.
Palin John Maddened the appearance, as she always does ("The other frontrunners— strong, good showings tonight!" is the talking head equivalent of "The offense is looking to score."), but during the appearance, beamed in from Palin Headquarters in Wasilla, Alaska, it was her hair that got the most attention. It's wavy! The Bumpit's back! So shiny! Since she shied away from endorsing anyone running for the GOP nomination, her hair, arguably, was the most interesting thing about her analysis.
Let there be no mistake: this was not a hair compliment. It was an analysis critique.
With this move, Palin joins an exclusive fraternity of public figures with more interesting hair than opinions, including Donald Trump, Bruce Jenner, Felicity, Lady Gaga's wig stand, and Justin Bieber.

There are many reasons why some Lowriders have a hard time getting the Lowrider of their dreams. For some aspiring Lowriders, financial woes, life changes, and scarce availability of certain makes/models make getting a dream car impossible. Just like his dad, Jr. De La Torre wanted a custom Lowrider, unfortunately there is one major obstacle in his way; he is over a decade from being at the legal driving age! Still, there are solutions for everything and in this case, the next best option for him was to get a pedal car. The pedal car was built to show status and it was on display at the 2012 Lowrider Magazine Las Vegas Super Show, when a spectator jumped on the display, dropping it from the turntable and damaging it.
A rebuild was scheduled to get this pedal car back to show status and the first thing that was in order was a trip to Fabian's Body Shop, in Los Banos, CA. Once there, the pedal car was sprayed with a House of Kolors Candy Blue, while Rico's Pinstriping, of Merced, CA., gave the car its stripes. Alberto Herrera, of Quality Art, in Visalia, CA., finished the paint with a Toy Story movie theme and a mural of Jr. and his sister on the hood. Henrys' Customs, in Azusa, CA., gave the seat an old-school biscuit tuck, while Jr.'s dad, Shaggy, installed the Alpine DVD player and the Focal Audio speakers. Krazy Kutting of Yuma, AZ., fabricated the pedals, bars, steering wheel, and a few other parts before Jaime Castaneda, of La Puente, CA., finished it off with some engraving.
Jr. would like to thank his mom for letting his dad build his dream pedal car, Henry's Customs, Julio Rivera, Julio Ortiz, Krazy Kutting, Jake Blanco, Alberto Herrera and his dad for showing him the world of Lowriding. Can't wait to see what this youngster does once he is old enough to drive legally!

Living in New York, we're in a privileged place when it comes to craft beer. Though we lack the critical mass of breweries and brewpubs that are found in Portland, Asheville, Seattle and Chicago, our tap lines overflow with excellent beer from cultish breweries such as Firestone Walker, Ballast Point and AleSmith.
I call this the "show pony" effect. New York is still the nation's nerve center for media, and the city's journalists and taste makers can quickly elevate a beer brand's standing. Add to that the bustling tourist economy (around 50 million folks annually), and New York is a massive stage for craft breweries. The latest brewery to take its turn in the spotlight in our fair metropolis is Snake River, which might be the best brewery in Wyoming.
Don't scoff. Over the last couple years, Wyoming's breweries have been earning armloads of medals at the Great American Beer Festival. Thai Me Up took top honors for its IPAs, and Black Tooth Brewing, Wind River and Altitude Chophouse also earned some shiny hardware. Still, few Wyoming breweries have been as consistently excellent as Snake River Brewing.
Some breweries tend to have a single specialty such as, say, hoppy beers, stouts or crisp pilsners. That's not Snake River's style. Head brewer Cory Buenning is well versed in West Coast hop bombs, Czech pilsners, German lagers and English ales, showing a firm grasp on the brew kettle.
Brooklyn's American Beer distributors released Snake River's beers a few weeks ago, and let me tell you: I have not been this impressed about a new brewery in eons. Snake River Pale Ale is a citrusy easy-drinker, while the Snake River Lager is a smooth, caramel-licked dream. Like hops? Pako's EYE-P-A is firmly bitter without blowing your taste buds to smithereens, while Zonker Stout is a rich and roasty rebuttal to winter.
Go on, get a pint. Being snakebit has never been so delightful.
This was previously published on my app, Craft Beer New York.

Tagged: Carl Yastrzemski
The Triple Crown
It is often said that baseball's most prestigious feat is the elusive perfect game. After all, only 20 have been pitched in all of baseball's history–18 in the modern era. To retire 27 batters consecutively is certainly majestic, and it guarantees baseball immortality. Many perfect games have been thrown by notoriously dominant pitchers–Monte Ward, Sandy Koufax, Randy Johnson, Roy Halladay, and Catfish Hunter, to name a few. Their reputation almost demanded one. However, for some pitchers, their perfect games are the only redeeming factor in an otherwise disappointing or mediocre career–perhaps Kenny Rogers or Dallas Braden.
I would like to argue that there is an even more illustrious feat in baseball; one that has not been accomplished since 1967: 43 years. The largest gap between baseball's perfect games was 34 years. The feat that I speak of is baseball's triple crown, in which a hitter must lead his league in batting average, home runs, and RBIs. It has only been done 16 times in baseball's history, 13 in the modern era. The last man to win the triple crown was Carl Yastrzemski.
No one has ever pitched a perfect game twice. It is probably nearly statistically impossible. Two men have received the triple crown twice. The Cardinals' Roger Hornsby in 1922 and 1925, and the Red Sox's Ted Williams in 1942 and 1947. This is precisely what makes the triple crown even more impressive.
A perfect game does not guarantee a Cy Young Award. It is nearly unheard of for a player not to win the MVP if he has also won the triple crown. After all, MVP considerations are heavily affected by those same three statistics. To every rule and theory, there is always an exception, and Ted Williams is the exception to mine: In 1942 and 1947, he came in second place for MVP votes, losing to Joe Gordon and Joe Dimaggio, respectively.
A perfect game is one game; there are 161 others. To win a triple crown, the hitter has to be consistently superior in three outstandingly difficult categories. Every player who has won the triple crown in the modern era is currently immortalized in Cooperstown. Pitchers who throw a perfect game are perfect for 27 outs. Those who win the triple crown are spectacular 4,374 outs.
With a couple of legitimate Triple Crown contenders this season in Carlos Gonzalez, Joey Votto, Albert Pujols, and Miguel Cabrera, I wanted to try and figure out why there has been such a disparity in Triple Crown winners since Yastrzemski last did it. I decided to look at and compare various eras within baseball's modern era (since 1900) and I think I have come to a reasonable conclusion.
It surprises me that there were any triple crown players in the dead ball era (1901-1919), which was defined by small ball. Pitchers were allowed to use altered balls and trick pitches, and starting pitchers completed their games more than half the time. Then again, it doesn't surprise me that the two men to hit for it were Nap Lajoie and Ty Cobb.
The Lively Ball Era (1920-1941) followed in which a rubber-core ball was universally used, and trick pitches were prohibited. Pitcher's completed their game less than half the time, and the average amount of runs scored per game was nearly ten. Also, in 1930, the National League's batting average as a whole was over .300. Five men hit for the triple crown in this era: Roger Hornsby (twice), Chuck Klein, Jimmie Foxx, Lou Gehrig, and Joe Medwick.
Then came the Integration Era (1942-1960), catalyzed by Jackie Robinson. Many players were involved in World War II, which some argued diluted the level of play. Two players hit for the triple crown: Ted Williams (twice) and Mickey Mantle. The changes in this era went beyond the game itself, but I'm assuming the pitching was able to adjust to the new rules established in the Lively Ball Era.
The Expansion Era (1961-1976) followed, which came with an enlarged strikezone, and predictably, a reduction in offensive output. Only Frank Robinson and Carl Yastrzemski hit for the triple crown in this era, and no one has done it since. Perhaps the defining characteristics of the eras that follow offer some explanation.
The Free Agency Era (1977-1993) was characterized mainly by outrageous contracts. About one-third of teams used artificial turf which took emphasis off of the home run ball and resulted in more extra base hits.
The era that I have lived through–the Long Ball Era (1994-2005)–has been characterized by a remarkable increase in home runs. This is attributable to not only steroids, and parks more conducive to home runs.
I'm not sure what era baseball has transitioned into since 2005. Some say the steroids era (though testing was implemented in 2004, so that isn't really valid). With no-hitters, and even perfect games, becoming more of a commodity, I'd like to call it the era of the pitcher, but this might just be a unique year.
It does not really make sense that no one has won the triple crown since 1967 if offensive production has sky-rocketed. I think that the use of steroids have had an obvious effect on the statistics. It's no longer one person dominating the league for a year. Many players are capable of hitting copious amounts of home runs and RBIs and hitting for a high average. It seems like guys are continually beating each other out. At the end of the season, Carlos Gonzalez might be leading in batting average, Pujols in home runs, and Votto in RBIs–and the disparity might only be one or two points.
I would like to see one of these guys hit for the triple crown, especially now that baseball has transitioned out of the steroids era. It would not have felt right had someone hit for the triple crown in the steroid era because nearly nothing was pure. I see Pujols, Votto, Gonzalez, and Cabrera (the main AL contender) as pure baseball players that embody what baseball is supposed to be about. 2010 has been an amazing year for baseball. We have seen no-hitters, perfect games, a perfect game that should have been, and a triple crown would be the icing on perhaps the most exciting baseball season I have ever had the pleasure of watching.
They Break Your Heart…
As soon as the game ended, I wanted to come on here and write everything that I was feeling. It would have been the most impulsive, scapegoating article you may have ever read. I tend to forget that the emotions following the end of the season (especially a bad end) come in waves.
postseason debut… the fact that he performed the way that he did as a rookie is astounding. Not to mention the fact that Daniel Bard got out of a bases loaded jam with no outs with minimal damage.
Flares (Flair?) for the Dramatic
The minute that my exam finished, I was so happy. The main reason being that I could finally get back to watching baseball. The fact that the Red Sox won the night before my exam, and the night of, really helps seal the deal for me. I mean, besides the fact that I forgot to mention the cotton gin in my DBQ (about the expansion of slavery), I think I did fine.
Baseball is Back
Although I am upset that the Rays vs Red Sox game was pushed tomorrow, it is only because I want my real Red Sox baseball back. Believe me, I don't want Josh Beckett pitching in the rain. He's already injury prone enough, and who knows, maybe blisters are more common in rainy conditions. Plus, this gives me a chance to provide an offensive breakdown of the Red Sox plus my thoughts on Opening Night/Day.
use he has actually played in them for a significant amount of time. Granted he didn't do that well, but he did have an impressive Spring. He is my project, therefore he will do well.
Youkin' for four more years! & Autograph Stories
The thing about blogging is everyone reports on articles that other people have already written. I've slowly been realizing that, but Rockpile Rant had a blog a few days ago about it. The cool things about blogs though, is that you can incorporate your opinion into it any way you want. When I write these, it's pretty much like I'm thinking aloud.
Best Red Sox Players in History-Your Opinion?
So for the other site that I write for on a weekly basis, MLB Center, as the Red Sox Correspondent, I finally finished the "rough draft" of the article: The Top 10 Red Sox Players of All Time. Not only is it the Top 10 of all Time, but there are some honorable mentions, and some "future stars" as well. I'm sure a lot of you already know some stories about most of these players, but if you have any personal stories (or opinions) that you'd like to share, I think that'd really add to the story. You will of course be quoted in the final story.
Top 10
Boston Red Sox Players
Elizabeth Dreeson-Red Sox Corespondent
10. Joe Cronin
played for the Red Sox from 1935-1945 with a career .301 batting average, and
2,285 career hits, and the Red Sox retired his number 6. He was an All-Star
seven times, he batted .300 or higher and drove in 100 or more runs eight
times. He was also a manager and general manager for the Red Sox in the '40's.
In a memorable fight in 1938, he intercepted Jake Powell when he tried to
charge the mound after being hit in the stomach by Red Sox pitcher Archie
9. Tris Speaker
Speaker played for the Red Sox from 1907-1914 with a career average of .345.
Speaker got the starting center fielder job in 1909 and was part of the
"Million Dollar Outfield" in 1910 along with Duffy Lewis (LF) and Harry Hooper
(RF). Speaker's best season was 1912, when Fenway Park opened and when the Sox
won the World Series for the second time. He had 222 hits that season and
scored 136 runs. He set a major league record when he had three batting streaks
of twenty or more games (30, 23, and 22).
8. Johnny Pesky
Fenway Park, the foul ball pole in right field is called "Pesky's Pole".
According to Pesky, pitcher Mel Parnell coined the nickname because of Pesky's
legendary, controversial home run in 1948 over the fence near the pole; in
fact, it may have even hit the pole. That home run was one of only six home
runs Pesky ever hit at Fenway Park. He was the first American League player to
score six runs in a nine-inning game. He led the American League in base hits
three times. His career average was .307 and he has been a valuable member of
the Red Sox organization serving as a first base coach in the 70's (including
the amazing 1975 World Series) and a batting coach to Jim Rice
7. Jimmie
Foxx played for the Red Sox from 1936-1942 with an astounding .325 career
batting average, 534 home runs, and 2,646 hits. He was nicknamed Double X and
The Beast, and he is the second youngest player of all time to reach 500 home
runs at only age 32, and he was the second player to reach that mark. He had a
spectacular 1938 season with the Sox hitting 50 home runs, driving in 175 runs,
batting .349, and winning his third MVP award. He served as the Red Sox team
captain as well.
6. Wade Boggs
played with the Red Sox from 1982-1992 with a career .328 batting average, and
3,010 hits. He played third base, and appeared in 12 consecutive All-Star
games. His best season was 1987 with a .363 batting average and 89 RBIs. He won
five batting titles throughout his career and batted .349 as a rookie. From
1982-1988 he hit below .349 only once, in 1984 when he batted .325. From
1983-1989 Boggs had 200 hits consecutively each year. He also had six seasons
200 or more hits, 100 or more home runs, and 40 or more doubles.
5. Bobby Doerr
Doerr spent his entire career with Boston; from 1937-1941. He batted .288 with
2,042 career hits. The Red Sox retired his number 1. He led American League
second basemen in double plays five times, he led in put outs and fielding
percentage four times each, and in assists three times. He has an amazing
career fielding percentage of .980. He set Red Sox records for career games
(1,865), at bats (7,093), hits (2,042), doubles (381), total bases (3,270), and
runs batted in. However, these were all later broken by arguably the best
hitter of all time, Ted Williams. Doerr hit for the cycle twice in his career,
and he set a second base record in 1948 by handling 414 chances over 73 games
without an error.
4. Cy Young
Young pitched with the Red Sox from 1901-1908 and is revered as one of the best
pitchers, if not the best pitcher, in the history of the game. He holds the all
time records for wins with 511, 7,355 innings pitched, 2,803 strikeouts, and
749 complete games. His career ERA is 2.38, and his lowest ERA of his career
was 1.26. He has 76 career shutouts, which is fourth all time, and he won at
least 30 games in a season five times, with ten other seasons with 20 or more
wins. He pitched three no hitters, and the first perfect game of baseball's
"modern era". He earned the AL Triple Crown for pitchers in his first year in
the American League. Baseball honored Cy Young by naming the award given
annually to the best pitcher of each league.
3. Carlton Fisk
Fisk played for the Red Sox from 1969-1980 as a catcher. He had a career
batting average of .269, and recorded 2,356 hits over his career. In 1972, his
first full year with the Red Sox, he won the AL Gold Glove at catcher, and the
AL Rookie of the Year award. He caught 2,226 career games, more than any other
catcher in history, and was an 11 time All-Star. The most memorable moment of
his career came in Game 6 of the 1975 World Series in the 12th
inning against the Cincinnati Reds. He hit a home run that appeared to be going
foul down the left field line so he started jumping and waving his hands,
willing the ball to be fair. The ball struck the foul ball pole, and the walk
off home run carried the Sox to Game 7. Another memorable Fisk moment was his
fight with Thurman Munson of the New York Yankees. On August 1, 1973 at Fenway
Park, the game was tied 2-2 in the top of the ninth. Thurman attempted to score
by barreling into Fisk, which triggered a ten-minute, bench clearing brawl, and
heightening the tension between the classic rivalry. The left field pole is
called the Fisk Foul Pole, in honor of the 1975 game. Ken Burns, who created a
beautiful series on the decades of baseball, considers that game to have
re-triggered interest in baseball.
2. Carl Yastrzemski
played for the Red Sox his entire career, 1961-1983, and was part of the
"Impossible Dream Team" of 1967. He played outfield primarily, and was known
for his ability to track down flies, but he also played first base and
designated hitter. He batted .285, with 3,419 hits, and 1,844 RBI's. He also served as a Red Sox captain, and is
the last player in baseball to win the Triple Crown (1967). He was an 18 time
All-Star, a seven time Gold Glover, and was the first American League member of
the 3,000 hit club to hit 400 home runs. He shares the record with Brooks
Robinson of the Orioles for longest career with one team, 23 seasons.
Ted Williams
Williams also known as the "Splendid Splinter" or "Teddy Ballgame" is arguably
the greatest hitter of all time. He also played his entire career in Boston,
from 1939-1960 in which he batted .344, batted in 1,839, collected 2,654 hits,
and hit 524 home runs. He played left field for the Red Sox, won the AL MVP
twice, lead the league in batting six times, and won the Triple Crown twice
(1942 and 1947). He is the last player in Major League Baseball to bat over
.400 in one season (.406 in 1941). In fact, his career year was 1941 where he
batted .406, hit 37 home runs, batted in 120 runs and scored 135 runs. He holds
the highest career batting average of anyone with more than 500 home runs. In
the 1946 All-Star game he went 4-4 with two home runs and five RBI's. In his
last at-bat on September 23, 1960, he hit a home run. The Red Sox retired his
number 9. One of Teddy's final and most memorable public appearances was at the
1999 All-Star game, when he was brought out to the mound in a golf cart.
"Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out
of ten and be considered a good performer".
Babe Ruth: Every
baseball fan knows the story about Babe Ruth. How in 1918 he was traded to the
New York Yankees for cash to fund the corrupt Red Sox owner's Broadway show,
and after that year the Sox entered into an 86 year drought in which they came
agonizingly close to a World Series win several time, but never won it. This
became known as the Curse of the Bambino. Babe Ruth was both a pitcher and a
first baseman. He batted a career .342, held the record of 714 home runs for some
time (before it was broken by Hank Aaron) and had 2,873 career hits. As a
pitcher, he had a career 2.28 ERA, with 107 complete games out of only 163
games pitched. Even though he spent the majority of his career with the
Yankees, he is regarded as the greatest player of all time.
Jim Rice:
Jim Rice played for the Red Sox for his entire career, from 1974-1989, with a
career .298 batting average, 2,452 career hits, and 382 home runs. He was a
captain for the Red Sox, he topped 20 homers 11 times, 100 RBIs eight times,
was an All-Star eight times, hit .300 in seven seasons and he finished in the
top five in the AL MVP voting six times. Also, Rice hit 39-plus homers four
times. During this time most of his stats were leading in the AL. He's been on
the top ten list in various categories numerous times. This past year he came
sixteen votes away from eternal enshrinement in the Hall of Fame, and he's on
the ballot for his fifteenth and final at-bat this year.
Tony Conigliaro: Nicknamed Tony C. he played from 1964-1975 with a career batting average
of .264. In his 1964 Rookie season batted .290 with 24 home runs, and in his
1965 he led the league in home runs with 32. On August 18, 1967, in a game
against the California Angels, he was hit by a pitch on his left cheekbone, and
knocked unconscious. He missed the rest of that season; however, in the next
season, he was named Comeback Player of the Year. He was forced to retire
earlier than expected because his eyesight had been permanently damanged.
Jim Lonborg: Jim Lonborg pitched with the Red Sox from 1965-1971. He had a career ERA
of 3.86 with 368 complete games of 425. In 1967, as a part of the Impossible
Dream Team, he led American League pitchers in wins, games started, and
Freddy Lynn: Fred Lynn played for the Red Sox from 1974-1979 as a centerfielder. He
batted .283 with 1,960 hits and 306 home runs. He had an amazing 1975 season in
which he won the Rookie of the Year award as well as the AL MVP award. He was
the first player ever to win both in one season. Lynn and Rice were dubbed as
the "Gold Dust Twins". In 1975 Lynn also led the league in doubles, runs
scored, and slugging percentage, and finished second in batting average at
.331. On top of that he won a Gold Glove Award. When he was with the Red Sox,
he was elected to the All-Star team every year.
Mike Greenwell: Mike Greenwell played his entire career with the Red Sox, from
1985-1996. He batted .303 with 1,400 hits, and played left field. He was
nicknamed "The Gator" because he wrestled with alligators during the offseason.
In 1988, Greenwell hit .325 with 22 HR, and 119 RBIs, and finished second in
MVP voting.
Dwight Evans: Dwight Evans spent his entire career with the Red Sox, from 1972-1991.
He played right field with a batting average of .272. However, Evans was mostly
known for his amazing fielding. He won eight gold gloves and his throwing arm
was among the best in baseball of his time. From 1980-1989, Evans hit more home
runs (256) than any other player in the American League.
Mo Vaughn: Mo
Vaughn also played his entire career with Boston, from 1991-2003. He batted
.293 with 328 home runs and 1,620 hits. He was nicknamed the "Hit Dog" and
played first base for the Red Sox, selected as an All-Star three times, and won
the AL MVP in 1995. In 1995 he established himself the reputation of one of the
most feared hitters in the AL when he hit 39 home runs with 126 RBIs and a .300
batting average. However, his best season with the Red Sox was 1996 when he
batted .326 with 44 home runs and 143 RBIs. From 1996-1998 Vaughn batted .315
or higher, and averaged 40 home runs and 118 RBIs.
Recent Honorable Mentions
Pedro Martinez: In 1999 Pedro finished with a 23-4 record with a 2.07 ERA and 313
strikeouts, which earned him the Pitchers Triple Crown, and the Cy Young Award.
Between August 1999 and April 2000, Martinez had ten consecutive starts with
ten strikeouts. In the 1999 All-Star Game, he became the first pitcher to
strike out the side at an All-Star game. In 2000, he posted a 1.74 ERA, and won
his third Cy Young Award. He finished his career with the Red Sox with a 117-37
record,the highest winning percentage a pitcher has ever had with one team.
Nomar Garciaparra: In 1997 "No-mah" was named Rookie of the Year when he hit 30 home runs
and rove in 98 (which set a new record for RBIs by a leadoff hitter). In 1999
Nomar batted .357, and in 2000 he batted .372. He is one of the few
right-handed batters to win consecutive batting titles. Everyone knows the
tragic ending to this story. We're sorry Nomar.
Curt Schilling: Schilling was an integral part of the Red Sox 2004 World Series victory.
The most memorable game being Game 6 of the 2004 ALCS where Curt pitched
through seven laborious innings, and blood was visibly seeping into his sock.
He has 3,116 career strikeouts and a career 3.46 ERA.
Jason Varitek: Jason Varitek has played with the Red Sox since 1997, and has been their
starting catcher since 1999. Most importantly he's been their captain since
2005. He's one of the best defensive catchers in the game, and he has always
been an important part of the team, and in helping pitchers.
Manny Ramirez: Manny Ramirez had an amazing career with the Red Sox. He's always had
the reputation of just "being Manny". His career batting average is .314 and he
hit number 500 at the end of May 2008. He was an important part of both 2004
and 2007 Red Sox victories (he was the MVP in 2004).
David Ortiz: David Ortiz has been Boston's "Big Papi" since he's been with them. He
has a career batting average of .287. He also played a major role in leading
the Red Sox to their first World Series in 86 years. From 2003-2005, 20 of his
home runs were clutch–either tying or giving Boston the lead. He hit .400 in
the 2004 playoffs, and hit a memorable walk-off home run in Game 4 of the
ALCS–the definition of clutch. In 2006 he set a new Red Sox record by belting
54 home runs, three of which were walk off.
Dustin Pedroia: This small second baseman of the Boston Red Sox is in the process of
making a huge name for him. He has won the Rookie of the Year Award, a Gold
Glove, a Silver Slugger Award, the AL MVP, and has had a six year contract
extension all within two years.
The Last Shot on the Ballot for a former Red Sox Captain-Jim Rice
There have only been four captains of the Red Sox since 1923: Jimmie Foxx, Carl Yastrzemski, Jim Rice, and now Jason Varitek. The hall of fame ballots are out yet again, and it is Jim Rice's final at-bat on this ballot. Just a year ago, Rice came so close to enshrinement, missing only 16 votes! He received 72.2% of votes, and he needed 75%… talk about close! Jim Rice played his entire career with Boston (1974-1989) gave pitchers a sickening feeling when he came to the plate (along with other Red Sox stars like Yaz, Fisk, Lynn, Boggs, Evans, Armas during that era). The left-fielder's career statistics speak for themselves:

Pats Will Go 16-0 Again
Whether it's The Hoodie or a their star quarterback being married to a supermodel, the Patriots aren't exactly America's team, but they do have reason to expect another successful season. I was given the task to play out every game of the coming season all the way through the Super Bowl, which meant crowning a champ in the summer. It was a laborious task, but one I truly enjoyed. I actually went week-by-week. In the end, one team went undefeated, which figures to be a hot topic for some of you. As you rip the idea of an undefeated season, I dare you do find a loss on the New England Patriots' schedule as of right now. Pick one. I couldn't. I have the Patriots rolling to a second undefeated regular season in the past five years.
You know what this is, another salute by ESPN to the Patriots. Why would you start an article with this garbage?
ESPN can't talk football. They can't talk about how Lloyd will affect the offense, or the hole left on the offensive line with Matt Light retiring. The addition of the young defensive players through the draft, etc.
There's never any substance.
What team isn't "loaded" with young talent? Give examples of the young talent that the Patriots have that will carry them. Gronk? The answer is Brady. It has been Brady, and will be Brady. Gronk on another team, pending the QB is not Gronk - he becomes another less contributing player. Sorry, that's the truth.Tom Brady may be getting older, but the Patriots are loaded with young talent, and are undoubtedly hungry for another Super Bowl. Skip Bayless thinks the Patriots will win the Super Bowl at 18-to-1, while Stephen A. Smith thinks the Patriots' easy schedule gives them a good shot at going undefeated. What's your take?
Skip Bayless?
Stephen A. Smith?
How do these people have jobs? There are posters on JI, Patriot fans included (even Raiders9175), that have more football savvy than these guys.
Pats are not going 16-0. But 13-3 or 14-2 is not out of the question.
But only one team has ever completed the near-impossible feat, as you Pat fans painfully learned.
If there are no significant injuries, the Pats are at least 12-4. And I think that is a conservative estimate.
unproven running game, defense is still coming off a horrible season, we have no idea what team(s) are going to be the 49ers, Texans of this season. so to sit here, look at a schedule and say the Pats will 16-0 (IN JULY!!!!) is pretty comical.
Pats have one achilles heel going into 2012 & it's the idea that their offensive line will make it through a 16 game schedule.
Light is retired
Waters is no spring chicken & has retired once
Their centers are average at best
Mankins is coming off of serious surgery
The guy replacing Light (can't think of his name) has a history of back problems & had them again last year.
The rest of them are Jags
At Bradys age, he aint moving around like he used to. Giants proved again that you beat the Pats with a pass rush.
Brady only needs to be crushed once into the turf to reaggrevate that recurring shoulder injury thats plagued him somewhat the past three seasons.
I just don't see him sitting back there eating a ham sandwich like he did last year.
We'll see

So I found the the new xkcd Simple Writer filter, and decided to see what would happen if I plugged in some really complicated poetic language and kept substituting words until it passed scrutiny. (Excepting names.)
First finding: Randall has been WAY too liberal with highly obscure contractions of common words. "'tis" is the case in point.
Here's the first one I did, from Hamlet Act 3 Scene 1 I'll keep
To be, or not to be--that is the question:
Whether 'tis better in the mind to hurt from
The balls and points of not clean or good chance
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by fighting end them. To die, to sleep--
No more--and by a sleep to say we end
The sad, and the ten hundred normal hurts
That body is death money getter to. 'Tis a fucking
Really seriously to be wished. To die, to sleep--
To sleep--maybe to dream: yes, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have dropped off this living body,
Must give us pause. There's the thing
That makes bad happening of so long life.
For who would bear the cat of three three back ends and hurt-words of time,
The mean guy's wrong, the rich man's big mean words
The hurt of not liked love, the law's long wait,
The back talk of office, and the mean noes
That easy-going good point of the not fit takes,
When he himself might his death cause make
With a not covered knife? Who would sticks bear,
To cry and work under a tired life,
But that the fear of something after death,
The not found yet country, from whose edge
No traveller returns, confuses the will,
And makes us rather bear those bad things we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
So head-voice does make scared guys of us all,
And so the normal face of going to do feeling
Is made sick with the pale shape of thought,
And busy making of great business and moment
With this view their directions turn wrong
And lose the name of doing. -- Soft you now,
The pretty Ophelia! -- girl outside sex spirit, in your god talks
Be all my bad doings remembered.

Rita Bangs Old Friend
I really did want to fuck him back then. I was fresh out of college and horny as fuck. I always loved his short brown hair. I liked how he parted it on the side. He used to put hair spray on it so it wouldn't get out of place. I wish that I had met him before I met Jim. If I had, I might not be a divorced lady working the streets to get laid.
"You don't wear panties?" He asked.
"Nope, it takes too long to get ready to fuck." I said with a smile."You really want to do it?" Patrick said as he stuck one of his fingers inside my pussy.
"If you have the money honey, I have the time." I said.
"You are serious about this whore thing aren't you?" He asked.
"Yes I am. Do you want to fuck, or should I go look for someone else?" I asked.
"I want to fuck!" He said slipping three fingers inside my pussy.click to continue reading this story...

The uprising has begun, and you're trapped on an island with the rebel goats.
YouTuber Robbaz used Far Cry 3's editor to create a fictional universe where goats are your primary enemy. It's a silly video, but it's fun to watch the goats fly into the air because of explosions. I would play the hell out of this if it was made into a real DLC where the goats actually attacked you.
You can bet your cookie jar that this won't be the last silly/goofy/crazy video to come out of the editor, but it's certainly the silliest I've seen today.
