First and foremost before getting into anything else, we must talk about THE STABBING. This is the best story I've heard about it:
Sid got fired after that and Arn Anderson didn't come back for some time. Also, this led to a lack of trust between Sid and the other organizations he worked with, so he never was pushed as prominently as he previously was. Both those guys should have been dead. The cause of it was that Sid was talking to Arn about how Arn made so much less than him and he told him to retire. Now, moving on…I finally figured out how Maxx Payne turned babyface. He saved Johnny B. Badd from a beatdown and shook hands with him. Okay!

Sid Vicious (w/Col. Robert Parker) vs. Ric Flair (w/Fifi) for the #1 Contendership at Clash of the Champions
Pre-Match Thoughts: I know I've already reviewed that Clash, but this seems like essential viewing. I also haven't seen a singles match in a while. This match made their booking difficult because they had to have Vader face Flair and then do another match between them at Starrcade.
Match Review: They lock up, and Sid shoves Flair down hard. No surprise there. Flair runs straight into the brick wall, then Flair comes back with chops to cause Sid to leave the ring. That's weird. When Sid gets back in there, he clobbers Flair on the back a few times and throws him upside down into the corner and out to the floor. Sid brings Flair back in for a big boot, but Flair blocks it and trips him so he can choke him. Sid rolls to the outside again, and Flair goes up top for a double axehandle. Flair throws Sid over the rail, but Sid doesn't intend to leave. Flair meets him on the floor again, and knocks him back over the rail. Sid sells too much for how big he is. He gets back in the ring and hits Flair with a big clothesline, then stomps on him until Parker walks over and chokes him. Sid grabs a chair, and thanks to the distraction he softly hits Flair on the back with it. Sid suplexes Flair back into the ring for 2, and now we have a commercial.
Back from the break, Sid has Flair in a bear hug. Sid then slams him and goes back to the bear hug. After a powerslam by Sid, he covers for 2. Back to the bear hug, which Flair breaks and heads up top after. He goes for a cross body, but Sid catches him with the bear hug. Come on. This is the first match I've skipped any of. Sid slams Flair, then misses an elbow drop. Flair wraps Sid's leg around the post, then beats him up for a while. Sid rams Flair into the corner, then hits him with a big boot. Flair kicks Sid away, but gets thrown hard into the corner. Flair runs to the other side, then flies off the top with a big right hand. Flair back suplexes Sid, then covers him for 2. Flair goes up top again, and lands a double axehandle. He puts the FIGURE-FOUR on Sid, and Parker gets on the apron as Sid reverses it. Parker rushes in and attacks Flair, getting Sid disqualified at 16:44.
Sid is upset, and grabs Parker in anger. This wasn't the first time that happened. This time WE'RE OUT OF TIME as Sid CHOKESLAMS him!
My Thoughts: That match was absolutely terrible, and what makes it even worse is that they'd clearly built for Sid to get the title shot and beat Vader only for him to try to kill someone. That's unfortunate. Giving Sid the title as a babyface would have been really bad for WCW, though. I was so bored by this and couldn't take very much more of it. Flair didn't really try his best, Sid tried but sucked, and it just wasn't any fun. No idea why Sid sold like a small guy. *.
Also on this show, we had the Hollywood Blonds break up.
This was a double-edged sword. The Blonds could have done so much more, but both guys were ready for big singles pushes. Unfortunately WCW thought Pillman wasn't, and Austin's only lasted for a year or so. Austin paired with Parker didn't make any sense either, even though I dig them both. People were shocked seeing Austin take out Pillman, so it was well done.

Harlem Heat vs. Arn Anderson and Paul Roma
Pre-Match Thoughts: Even knowing Harlem Heat weren't any good then, I need a space filler and this is going to be it. If you don't like it, you can skip on reading this. Going forward, ideally I want to get a look at as many different wrestlers as possible. In this case, it's possible!
Match Review: Roma locks up with Booker, and Roma then arm drags him. A dropkick sends Booker to the outside, and when he gets back in there, he hits Roma with an elbow on the break. Booker then misses a charge to the corner, so Roma arm drags him again. Booker breaks the armbar with forearms, then Roma gives him a cross body for 2. This is quite sloppy. Arn tags in and slaps the armbar on Booker, who finally breaks it and tags his brother in. Arn drops an elbow on Stevie's leg, then Roma tags in and works a toe-hold. Booker attacks him to break it, then makes a tag in. Lots of punch-kick-forearm here. Booker slams Roma, then misses an elbow drop and Arn tags in. Arn gets trapped in the corner, but nearly fights out only for Stevie to hit him with a big boot to the face on his way in the ring. Stevie misses a charge to the corner, but catches Arn with an inverted atomic drop anyway. Booker tags in for a double clothesline, then goes to a chinlock. When Arn breaks it, he nails Arn with a flying forearm for 2. Stevie tags in for a double elbow, and that also gets 2. Arn tries a sunset flip, but Booker makes the blind tag and headbutts him for 2. Booker goes back to the chinlock, but Arn DDT's him when he gets up this time. Roma makes the tag in, and cleans house for a while. He hits both with dropkicks, then gives them a noggin-knocker, but they're black so they have hard heads as it goes. Now all four are in there, and Roma collides with Booker. Stevie Ray then walks over, and pins Roma when Roma's foot is on the ropes at 12:07.
My Thoughts: That wasn't a good match, and it was compounded worse by having such a bad finish. I understand Harlem Heat couldn't get embarrassed every week, but I don't understand the booking there. If Paul Roma is on that Four Horsemen level, he can't lose the match that way. *1/4.

Vader (WCW Champion) and Steve Austin (w/Col. Robert Parker and Harley Race) vs. Ric Flair and Sid Vicious (w/Fifi)
Pre-Match Thoughts: It's fair to say this could be really, really good. How could it not be? I don't see any way. Sid officially turned face, as you can see. The Kongs just attacked him, though. Now Vader pounds on him and gives him a splash on the floor. Sid has been left on the floor and he isn't getting up. Flair's going to need a new partner, and it's ARN ANDERSON.
Vader (WCW Champion) and Steve Austin (w/Col. Robert Parker and Harley Race) vs. Ric Flair and Arn Anderson
Match Review: The faces hit the ring, and we're getting a full blown brawl. Flair throws Austin to the outside, and Vader trades bombs with Arn for a while. This is cool. When Vader and Austin try to get in the ring, the brawl resumes! Flair hits Vader with a big right from the top, then gets picked up and dropped on the railing. Arn and Austin continue fighting as Vader splashes the rail on accident, then Arn and Austin keep trading abdominal stretches. Flair works Vader over with a chair, then tags into the match to deal with Austin. Flair wrecks him with chops, then tags right back out. Arn goes to work on Austin's left leg, but Austin gets up and hits him with some big forearms. Austin goes to the second rope, but Arn hits him on the way down. Flair tags in for a big chop, then Vader makes the tag in. Vader pounds on Flair, but Flair returns the favor. Vader bumps off a chop, then Flair rakes his nose. Arn tags in for an elbow from the second rope, then Austin switches in too. Flair runs in to stop Arn from getting beaten up, and Arn elbows Austin over the top rope thanks to that. Austin attacks Flair from behind thanks to a distraction, then Vader throws Flair into the rail. Back in we go, and Austin stands on Flair's face. Vader tags back in, clobbers Flair for a while, and sends him to the outside. Austin throws Flair into the rail, then when they go back in, Flair goes upside down in the corner. He tries to leap on Vader, but instead Vader SUPERPLEXES him for 2. Austin makes a tag in, and he drops some knees on Flair for a bit. Austin suplexes Flair for 2, then backdrops him. Flair comes back with a clothesline, but falls down and eats another forearm. Flair fights back some, but Austin traps his leg. Flair comes back with an inverted atomic drop, and there's the tag to Arn.
Arn rushes in and drops a knee on Austin, then goes to the second rope only to eat a boot on the way down. Vader tags in there and nails Arn with a clothesline, then runs him over. Arn does block a charge to the corner, then takes Vader down with a back suplex. Arn clotheslines Vader over the top, then follows him out there. Arn picks Vader up and drops him on the rail, then pops Austin with an elbow when he tries to run in the ring. Arn drops Vader with the SPINEBUSTER, but with Austin's distraction, Vader can get up and clothesline Arn. Austin throws Arn to the outside, then clotheslines him with the rope on his way in. Austin does a couple jumping jacks to show how in shape he is, then drops Arn throat-first on the top rope. Vader suplexes Arn, and now we have a commercial. Damn.
We come back, and Vader has a chinlock on Arn. Vader then goes for a backdrop, but misses a butt splash when it gets blocked. Austin tags in, then slams Arn and drops a knee on him for 2. We get some pin reversals after that, and Arn catapults Austin into the corner. Arn gets in a HOT SHOT, but he still can't make the tag. Vader's elbow drop cuts Arn off, then he puts Arn on the top rope for a superplex. Instead, Arn blocks it and knocks Vader down. He still can't tag out though. Austin gets in there and suplexes Arn, then goes to the second rope for an elbow smash that gets 2. Austin tries to get the pin by sitting on Anderson, but it isn't going to work. Arn finally makes the tag, but the referee didn't see it. So, Vader hits Arn with a clothesline. What a LONG heat segment this is. Arn is punching at air at this point. Vader beats Arn up some more, then gives him a Samoan drop for 2. So much variety in this match. Vader goes to an armbar/nerve hold, then tags in Austin for a back suplex. Arn nearly makes it to the corner anyway, but Austin grabs him and kicks him in the gut. Vader tags in, goes to the second rope, and comes down with that standing splash. Everyone is TIRED. The commentators also made sure to bury Sid. Vader slams Arn for 2, then plants him with a DDT. Austin covers for 2, but Arn's feet are under the ropes. Austin slams him, then heads up top for the first time. His knee drop lands, but Arn kicks out at 2. Wow. Arn still can't get over there and I think this may have gone on long enough. Right when I say that, Austin goes to a bear hug until Arn punches his way free. Vader tags in again, drops an elbow on Arn, and covers for 2. Only two minutes remain of programming, they say. Austin tags in again and goes up top for a ROCKET LAUNCHER, but Austin misses.
ARN FINALLY TAGS OUT, and Flair goes crazy as the crowd does too. He backdrops Austin, then beats up Vader too. Flair backdrops Austin, then gives him a back suplex. Flair goes for the FIGURE-FOUR, but Parker reaches in to break the hold. Austin is beating up Flair, and WE'RE OUT OF TIME right when Vader goes up to the second rope and misses the VADER BOMB. COME ON. That was 33 minutes.
My Thoughts: The bumps Vader took, man. Now what really happened was that with Sid leaving, they needed to edit out the ending where he walked out there and beat Vader up. That match was good even though it was entirely too long. It drove me nuts seeing that long heat segment, by the time it was over I was drained of all energy. I don't like rating matches without endings, but I thought it was ***1/4. Everything until and at some points including the heat segment was great. Especially the brawl at the start.

Steve Austin and Paul Orndorff (w/the Assassin and Col. Robert Parker) vs. Arn Anderson and Paul Roma
Pre-Match Thoughts: I don't mind this match at all. It's nice to see them putting decent matches on television, because doing these articles is torture otherwise. Arn Anderson had implied previously that he didn't really trust Roma. This was taped well before the stabbing in case that's in doubt. If it wasn't, obviously this wouldn't be happening.
Match Review: Arn is upset because he was attacked the week before, so he hits the ring quickly and forces the heel team to the outside. Orndorff and Arn will start the bout off, and he throws Arn into his corner. Arn fights out, then calls in Roma for a standoff. Things normalize, and Orndorff gets trapped in the wrong corner. They beat him up, then Roma tags in for a shot from the top rope. Orndorff tags out as well, and Austin drops a knee on Roma. They fight over a wristlock, until Austin takes Roma down with a headlock. Austin then goes for a bodyslam, but Roma reverses to his own. Austin ducks to the outside, then tags Orndorff in for an elbow from the top. Orndorff misses an elbow drop, so he slaps Roma instead. Now Roma chases Orndorff around, which leads to Austin attacking Roma from behind and Orndorff hitting Roma with a clothesline. Austin drops a knee on Roma, which gets a terrible canned reaction. Oh no, not this stuff. Roma gets thrown to the outside and into the rail, then Orndorff hits him with something for a while. Don't know what that was. Back inside, Austin hits Roma a ton and Orndorff stomps a mudhole in him. Roma takes Orndorff down with a cross body for 2, but Orndorff fires off a back suplex in response. Orndorff hits Roma in the gut, then goes to a chinlock. When Roma gets out, Orndorff cuts him off with a knee to the gut. Orndorff signals for the PILEDRIVER, but Roma backdrops him. Austin makes the tag in, and Arn does too. Arn nails Austin with a back elbow, then cleans house on both these guys. Everyone winds up in the ring, and Arn drops Austin with the SPINEBUSTER. Roma accidentally distracted the referee, then Orndorff comes off the top with a knee drop. Now Austin covers Arn, and the Assassin tells Roma not to make the save. He doesn't. WHAT? Austin and Orndorff get the pin after 11:11 as a result of that.
My Thoughts: Okay, that was really stupid. the match was also not very good. Obviously this was headed towards Roma turning on Arn, and while that didn't happen, Roma turned on Erik Watts and announced he was going to team with Paul Orndorff. Everything else was window dressing and the efforts were quite low. Not a whole lot to think or say about this one. 3/4*.
Rick Rude (WCW International Champion) and the Nasty Boys (WCW Tag Champions, w/Missy Hyatt) vs. Sting, Ricky Steamboat, and Ric Flair (w/Fifi)
Pre-Match Thoughts: This might be pretty good! What happened was that Sting and Steamboat faced the Nasties on the previous episode. Rude came out to attack Sting, and that led to he and Steamboat finding a partner of their own. Choosing Ric Flair for this spot makes a ton of sense because there wasn't anyone else. Cactus Jack had pretty much disappeared.
Match Review: Steamboat wants to start with Sags, but Sags ducks to the outside. Sags gets back in there, and Steamboat dropkicks him and his buddy Knobbs to clear the ring. Steamboat tries to get a sneaky roll up of Knobbs, but Knobbs rolls out of the ring. Knobbs wants some of Sting, he says. So we're going to get that, I think. Knobbs hits Sting with some forearms, but Sting fights back and hits him with a clothesline. Sags runs in and gets nailed with a back elbow, then Sting hits Knobbs with another clothesline. Flair tags in for the first time, and clotheslines Knobbs a few times himself. Sags tags in there, then works over Flair until Rude tags in. Rude does the same to Flair, then slams him. Rude swivels his hips at Sting, but Flair gets up for an atomic drop. Rude then pinballs between all three opponents, and Flair gives him an inverted atomic drop. Knobbs makes the tag in, but is given a drop toe-hold and Flair brings in Sting for a stepover toe-hold. Sting rams Knobbs into the corner a few times, then misses a STINGER SPLASH and Sags dumps him to the outside.
After a commercial, Rude has a bear hug on Sting, then switches to a chinlock. Sting gets out by moving out of the way when Rude tries to jump on him, then Sags elbow drops Sting to keep him in the wrong corner. Sting does ram Sags into the canvas, then makes the tag to Flair. Flair cleans house like it's 1985, then slaps the FIGURE-FOUR on Sags until Rude rakes his eyes. Rude backdrops Flair over the top even though he isn't allowed to, and Rude hits him with one of the title belts. Sags picks Flair up and slams him, but misses a leg drop. Now Knobbs tags in and throws Flair over the top. Steamboat gets involved, but Sags rams Flair into the steps anyway. Knobbs drops Flair with a gutwrench suplex, then Flair tries to fight back. Instead, Rude gets in there and puts a figure-four on Flair! Steamboat runs in and breaks the hold with a knee drop, then Knobbs drops some elbows on Flair without even having tagged in. Okay. Sags tags in there and drops some elbows on Flair, then Rude gets back in for some punches. Rude goes right back out, and in comes Knobbs. Flair fights back on him, and they collide with each other. Flair finally makes the tag to Sting, who goes crazy as he tends to do. He hits everyone with clotheslines, gives the Nasties a noggin-knocker, and now all six guys are in the ring. Rude goes for the RUDE AWAKENING on Steamboat, but Sting catches Rude with a roll up for the victory at 20:03.
My Thoughts: I wasn't a huge fan of this match, I felt like the structure was odd and that the action was too slow. Most of all they were just filling time which isn't one of my favorite things to see. I dig all of the people in this match, but they did nothing but the basics. **.

Steve Austin (w/Col. Robert Parker) vs. 2 Cold Scorpio
Pre-Match Thoughts: I was going to make a comment about how WCW learned their lesson from the previous tapings, but instead they taped a ton of television months beforehand. Lots of the stuff on it didn't make any sense when seen out of context. This is a nice matchup and one I've looked forward to seeing for a little while.
Match Review: They lock up, and Austin trips Scorpio quickly. Scorpio reverses to a hammerlock, then they tumble into the corner. Scorpio gives him a sunset flip from the second rope, then arm drags him. That was slick. Scorpio keeps the armbar on Austin for a while, then hits Austin with a spinning heel kick. Scorpio misses a big splash, but Austin's suplex attempt is turned into a Scorpio sunset flip for 2. Scorpio then goes back to the armbar, which Austin breaks and follows up with a knee drop. Austin hits Scorpio with a clothesline, and that's good for a 2 count. Austin goes to the chinlock, then sticks his feet on the ropes for more leverage. Scorpio eventually gets up, and the two guys collide with each other. Scorpio starts his comeback with a clothesline, then splashes Austin in the corner. After a back suplex, Scorpio follows with a twisting splash for 2. I thought that was going to be the 450. Scorpio slams Austin, then goes up top only for Austin to arm drag him down. Scorpio then flies into the ring from the apron with an interesting cradle, but Austin grabs the tights and reverses for 3 at 7:24.
My Thoughts: This was a pedestrian match, with Austin's good bumping and quick offense playing a large part in it. Scorpio got to do a few of his big things, but ultimately I feel like we deserved to see a whole lot more. Too bad we didn't get that. **1/4.

Rick Rude (WCW International Champion) vs. The British Bulldog
Pre-Match Thoughts: This was supposed to be a non-title match. What happened was that Bulldog left after claiming that he didn't get paid for their European shows. So, that creates an interesting situation where they had to tape a match very quickly and air it. When Bulldog's music goes off, nobody walks out. Eventually the match is announced…AS A FORFEIT. Somebody was not very happy about that, it appears. Rude said that Davey was a weak person. After he's done talking about that, HERE COMES THE BIG BOSS MAN BAH GAWD WE HAVE A NEW WRESTLER IN WCW. THE BOSS TAKES RUDE OUT, and I guess we have a match!
Rick Rude (WCW International Champion) vs. The Boss
Match Review: The Boss immediately boots Rude in the face, getting a huge reaction! He follows that up by clotheslining Rude over the top, then ducks to the outside and wallops him. Boss posts Rude too, then sends Rude back into the ring and clotheslines him. Boss backdrops him, then picks him up for a bodyslam. A knee drop follows that, then an inverted atomic drop. After an atomic drop, I've noticed Rude's taken more bumps here than a LOT of his other matches leading up to this. Rude finally gets something in with a DDT, and some people actually cheered that. Interesting dynamic. Rude hits Boss with a forearm from the top, then gives him a swinging neckbreaker. Rude goes up top again, and this time he knee drops Boss. Rude goes to the chinlock, and when Boss fires up to his feet, he hits Rude with a clothesline. Rude cuts Boss off by throwing him neck-first into the second rope, then pulls him to the outside and posts him. Rude pulls Boss back into the ring the hard way, then stomps on him and goes back to the chinlock. Boss breaks it, then slugs Rude a couple times. Now Rude blocks a charge to the corner, as the Boss appears to be drained of energy. Rude goes up top for a third time, then hits Boss with a forearm. Back to the chinlock, then Rude goes up top AGAIN and gets punched on the way down. Boss splashes Rude in the corner, then jumps on his back. Now Boss uppercuts him and rams Rude into the buckles. Boss then hits Rude with the BOSS MAN SLAM, covers, and gets the clean pin at 10:29!
My Thoughts: For once WCW did something good the whole way through and never once messed it up! I was super surprised by the way things went. The Boss was a good signing for WCW, they needed more talent any way they could get it. The match was good even though there were a lot of chinlocks. I was invested in seeing the result and enjoyed the way things turned out. **1/2. Nothing to complain about here!
Surprisingly, that's it. I feel like there were a lot of things lacking from their build to Starrcade, but the promotion of Flair/Vader was not one of those things. I thought they did a great job illustrating that it was going to be the end of Flair's career if he did not win. They did a great job finding celebrities like Charles Barkley who said Flair wasn't done with his career yet. I was a little confused by the Rhodes/Austin build and didn't really see any of that. It was strange. The rest of the Starrcade card was talked about, but a lot of what's left didn't sound so good. Anyway, I'm going to hop back to the WWF to close out 1993. Crazy that I'm even saying that, never thought I'd watch this much stuff.
Best: The Boss making his debut. Sorry, I just liked this more than everything else. Can't help it.
Worst: The Hollywood Blonds breaking up. The thing is, it happened so fast. Came somewhat out of nowhere. There was no reason for that.

It's Friday, and we are doin a little happy dance! We may still be in the throes of Winter, but we're inching through February, which means we're almost to spring, which means it's almost summer: the season of teeny bikinis, beach days and margaritas.
To inspire us this weekend to get off our fat asses and start workin' on our summer bods, we're sharing some pics of singer Jason Derulo's uber sexy ex girlfriend (and 50 Cent's baby mama), model Daphne Joy. Her super tight bod is motivation enough to put down the beer, put on some gym clothes, and hit the weights.
I mean, come on, look at her!

Hot Picks
Who's Watching Oliver
Thailand / USA 2017
produced by Aki Komine, Raimund Huber, Chariyawan Tavoranon (executive) for Motion Pictures Co., Joyplex
directed by Richie Moore
starring Russell Geoffrey Banks, Sara Malakul Lane, Margaret Roche, Kelly Woodcock, Champagne Nuttanun, Cecilia Belletti
written by Raimund Huber, Richie Moore, Russell Geoffrey Banks
review byMike Haberfelner
Oliver (Russell Geoffrey Banks), a socially awkward young man, has just
moved to Thailand - but is pretty much in constant touch with his mother
(Margaret Roche) via video chat, who gives him all sorts of mental support
and also reminds him to always take his pills. And then one night, Oliver
goes out, picks up a drunk girl (Kelly Woodcock), takes her home promising
her drugs, then actually drugs, rapes and brutally kills her, to then saw
up her body to properly dispose of it. None of this he enjoys in the least
- so why does he do it? Because his mother told him to, and however hard
he tries, he can't escape her control.
Eventually, Oliver meets lovely
Sophia (Sara Malakul Lane) in a park, and he's pretty quick to fall for
her, and the feeling is mutual, as it turns out that she like him is a
broken soul. Thing is, without knowing Sophia, mother disapproves of it -
and not only that, she insists on Oliver killing her. Now essentially
Oliver listens to mum, but killing Sophia is just too much, so he picks up
a girl (Cecilia Belletti) in a bar to kill her (on webcam, so mother can
see it) in Sophia's stead. There's a problem though, Sophia has long grown
curious about Oliver, so exactly this day she has spied after him after
their date, has seen him go out, pick up a girl ... and ultimately dispose
of her body - which naturally makes her see him in a very different light
(especially since she doesn't know he has killed that other girl to save
her) ...
Now Who's Watching Oliver is most certainly a
film in a league of its own: It's deeply disturbing, not so much by what
is actually shown (though there's plenty of on-screen violence for sure)
but by what can be read between the lines, by the bigger picture the film
only hints at - which works 100% for the film -, and all the while the
movie's at the same time a very tender love story between two outcasts who
only by the by grow into their relationship. All of this might sound like
a shipwreck in my writing, but it works on film thanks to a well-conceived
screenplay, a clever directorial effort, and a pair of very strong central
Well worth a look!

For the most part, I believe curse word usage is relatively new. my folks never used curse words, except my mom may have occasionally said "Dammit to Hell" and we would all run and hide. Even our military, the graffiti I always see was "Kilroy was here" Not "Fuck Hitler." Most people back in the day just did not use nasty words...except maybe for those friggin Sullivan's!

I like what joeh said about the Sullivans! :-)
My mum would say DAMMIT! whenever things got really bad, but I never ever heard my dad say any kind of swear word, no matter how mild.
I've been known to use my mother's DAMMIT! on occasion, but that's about as far as I go with the bad language.

My Mama was a bartender. She taught us every cuss word in the book. Typical:
"MFing, cheap damned SOB cheated me out of an effin' tip!" I was 6 and got into a LOT of trouble at school using some of those choice words. Ha! She's 88 and still using most of those words. Great article!! xo

I have a degree of sympathy with the 'limited vocabulary' school of thought regarding cursing. Most of it is just filler, to give a kind of emphasis to my anger, anyway. And a lot of it is just stupid (eg, "my fucking car died"; entertaining as that mental image may be. . .)
My dad grew up on a farm, so we got ample exposure to the various 'excrement words', but the sexual ones were beyond the pale. . . 'Asshole' was somewhere between an excrement word and a sexual one, but at any rate, 'jackass' or 'horse's ass' carried roughly the same freight, and was more acceptable (by whatever standard such things are measured). . .

My brother's a longshoreman... retired longshoreman.
The words are still there, particularly em effer.
I was Navy and learned the same language, but tried to be selective in its use.
I realized I was being unsuccessful on day, when home on leave, when I used that expression in normal conversation with my mom.
I also realized she was familiar with it because she didn't bat an eyelash.
My ex (spouse #1) used like to tell a story on me:
She was driving somewhere with our three year old son in the car and found it necessary to sound the horn in anger.
My son asked, "Why'd you do that, Mommy?"
She replied, "So that other car wouldn't hit us."
He responded. "Just call them an asshole, like Dad. Then they won't hit us."

Skip reminded me. . .
My wife's maiden name is closely related to a popular slang term for the male genitalia, and even at a distressingly young age, she was privy to the vulgarity associated with that. So our kids were, um, surprised that her reaction to said vulgarity was much closer to annoyance than shock. . .
One time, when one of our older girls was 2 or 3, I was at my workbench trying to repair a broken doll cradle for her. In the course of the attempt, the screwdriver slipped, and the damaged cradle was no longer merely damaged, but ruined. In my frustration, I let fly with the standard excremental expletive (a particularly emphatic, drawn-out version of it), unaware that my young daughter had come down the stairs to watch. Hearing my imprecation, the innocent young thing, all wide-eyed and sincere, asked, "Why say shit, Daddy?" Which, alas, has passed inevitably down the family lore. . .

I enjoyed that.
Am currently picking up swearing in Costa Rican Spanish...it is rather dull and repetitive after the English language tradition...but it does the trick when necessary.

In my family, it was the opposite. My dad would get very creative in his attempts to avoid cuss words, and since he was easily frustrated, he was very creative! My mom, on the other hand, didn't mince the damns or shits or whatever was called for at the moment. I knew better than to say one around her, though. P.S. It drives me crazy about the Herald. I hope you keep writing and find another place to publish. But maybe this is your sign to publish a collection of your blog posts!

Take the Causes & Impacts survey
The San Francisco Film Society is committed to more than the passive viewing of films on the big screen. Contemporary filmmakers are producing powerful films that aim to raise awareness, influence opinion, change behavior, encourage action and even instigate social movements. By curating programs and cultivating new film projects that have the potential to effect change, and by bringing these works to Bay Area audiences each yearincluding thousands of students through SFFS Youth Education outreach programsthe Film Society fills the role of advocate, catalyst and change agent for the causes these programs and films bring to light.
At SFIFF54, we have identified ten narrative and documentary films that expose and explore some of todays critical social issues, including criminal justice, civil liberties, AIDS in Africa, women in the media and the arts, education, the environment, democratic revolution and conflict and reconciliation.
Join us for Festival screenings of these films and participate in conversations with filmmakers in attendance. We hope you will be inspired to play a part in making change, engage with other audience members and connect with other enthusiasts, activists or groups who stand ready to respond to cinematic calls to action.
In addition to connecting audiences with these important causes, we also aim to measure the impact these films are having in the world. Throughout the Festival and beyond, we ask you to share with us how you have engaged with the films and what action you have taken on the issues after seeing them.
After each screening of the films listed below, you will have the opportunity to complete an online survey about your responses to the film and its related cause. The survey will be available for immediate access on your smartphones through our mobile website, via computer stations at the Info Table in the Sundance Kabuki Cinemas lobby, or at your own convenience at home.
We also welcome your opinions on how youd like us to continue to develop this Causes & Impacts initiative and measure positive change in the future.

What are they?
Those greenish white flowers...
blooming in the lightning, thunder and rain of the dawn.
Fresh and tranquil morning shade.
Ah, light is…
quietly and tenderly
from left to right.
Drops of rainwater glinting.
Nameless creepers covering all around the hill.
A small cave-like tunnel found in them.
Breathing deeply.
A mystical world.
It is seen if we see.
It is not seen if we think.

The Dawgs of War: a Remembrance… Afterword by Rick Neuheisel
Makes a great Xmas Gift: ***** CLICK HERE *** The Dawgs of War… Afterword by Rick Neuheisel
Filed under Washington Huskies
A UW donor who wishes to remain anonymous has purchased copies of The Dawgs of War: a Remembrance for the players on the Skyline and Roosevelt football teams.
This donor has been a supporter of my writing for several years and I appreciate the gesture very much. It's good to know the book will reach the hands of so many young football players in the Seattle area.
We live in a Brave New World where Oregon is atop the conference standings and Washington has been the west coast's laughingstock for several years now. Teenagers of today don't fully understand Washington's glorious football past. The Dawgs of War, which details quarterback Marques Tuiasosopo's 2000 UW Huskies Rose Bowl team, is a vivid reminder of that history.
Filed under Washington Huskies
When the Cal Bears came to Husky Stadium in 2002, Washington fans viewed the game as standard fare. After all, the Bears hadn't beaten the Huskies in 26 years. Cal was also coming off a 1-10 season from the year before. The Huskies, meanwhile, were only two years removed from their Rose Bowl Championship. The expectations in Seattle were for a comfortable Washington win.
But the Bears arrived with first-year coach Jeff Tedford. The Pac-10 didn't yet realize it, but he was in the midst of transforming the entire football culture at Berkeley. It was certainly on display that day against the Huskies. Tedford had his safeties come right up to the line of scrimmage and manhandle Washington's star receiver Reggie Williams. The Bears roughhoused their way to a 34-27 victory—which sent shockwaves throughout the Pac-10. After the game, as the Bears gathered in the visitor's locker room, they chanted "76,000 disappointed fans! 76,000 disappointed fans!"
By the end of that year, the Bears finished the season at 7-5—a remarkable 6-game turnaround. The next season featured a watershed moment. In triple overtime at Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, the Bears stunned top-ranked USC 34-31. As gleeful fans stormed the field, it was an epic moment under the lights. The consensus along the west coast was that California Bears football was about to ascend into the stratosphere.
Six years have passed since that time. Tedford's Bears have not become the Pac-10's colossus. They're like an airplane sitting idly on the tarmac and not getting airborne. There have been 10-win seasons in 2004 and 2006, but no appearances in BCS bowls.
The 2009 season was supposed to finally be Tedford's moment to challenge USC's supremacy. Running back Jahvid Best was a Heisman Trophy candidate and Syd'Quan Thompson a premier cornerback. The Bears opened up with a 3-0 start and twice topped 50 points. Their national ranking climbed to #6.
Then came games against Oregon and USC, in which the Bears became stunningly bad. They lost to the Ducks 42-3 and the Trojans 30-3. They went back-to-back games without scoring a touchdown. Their quarterback, Kevin Riley, has completed a dreadful 38% of his passes. Defensive players hace been constantly out of position while the wide receivers are dropping passes like an assembly line. All this has dropped the team from the national rankings. And to top it off, rumors are circulating that Cal players are increasingly recalcitrant to Tedford's gruff ways.
After eight seasons to evaluate Tedford's performance, it's evident the Bears have reached a ceiling. The problem is that expectations for greatness are now a part of culture at Cal. Therein lies Tedford's self-created problem: the more he succeeds, the higher he's expected to climb.
Meanwhile in Seattle, Jim L. Mora is coaching the NFL's Seattle Seahawks. The team is 2-3, coming off a win over Jacksonville. Mora is a coach in the Pete Carroll mode—young, energetic and defensive minded. He relates very well to his players, and speaks their language. From his days as defensive coordinator with the San Francisco 49ers, Mora is renown as a defensive mastermind and dynamic presence. Respected players that have played for him, like ex-Husky Lawyer Milloy, rave about Mora's ability to get his team enthusiastic. Others, like ex-Husky Lincoln Kennedy, have described Mora's reputation throughout the NFL as being almost too much of a player's coach. These characteristics are indeed geared more for the college game and are Carrollesque.
Mora has now entered a situation in Seattle where he followed future Hall of Fame coach Mike Holmgren. But the team's core is aging and a mere shell of its '05 self that played in the Super Bowl. Mora has already been fired from the Atlanta Falcons in 2006 and it wouldn't be a surprise to see him under pressure by the end of the 2010 or 2011 seasons, if a string of 6-10 and 5-11 seasons occur. In earlier times, Pete Carroll struggled twice as a head coach in the NFL and was fired both times. Then he was hired by the USC Trojans, and the rest is history. The NFL is jokingly known as "Not For Long" for a reason.
If by 2010 the Seahawks are struggling…. and if the Bears finish with another 8-win season and requisite Holiday Bowl berth, firing Tedford and bringing in Mora could be the key to challenging USC for Pac-10 supremacy.

Software as a Service (SaaS) is a model for software licencing which enables companies to licence software on a subscription basis. Gartner defines SaaS as "software that is owned, delivered and managed remotely by one or more providers." The provider delivers the software based on one set of common code and data definitions and it is consumed in a one-to-many model by all contracted customers at any time.
SaaS has become a common delivery model for many business applications including office and messaging software, payroll processing software, mobile management software, accounting, collaboration, customer relationship management (CRM), etc.
SaaS has the benefit of reducing IT support costs in large enterprise companies by outsourcing hardware and software maintenance and support to the SaaS provider.
Features of SaaS Applications
SaaS applications are generally fairly customisable according to customer needs, where each customer can alter the configuration options in order to optimise functionality or look-and-feel of the application.
Because SaaS applications are centrally hosted by the provider, they will often have a more accelerated feature delivery, and will be updated more frequently than traditional software.
As SaaS applications cannot generally access a company's internal systems they will often offer open integration protocols and application programming interfaces (APIs) that operate over a wide-area network.
SaaS applications often have social and collaborative functionality that allows users to share information and jointly work on projects. These features could include the ability to comment on tasks or plans, share documents, or vote on new feature ideas.
Adoption Drivers for SaaS
There is a growing acceptance of SaaS solutions in the enterprise business market. With the growing use of web-based user interfaces there is a decreased need for client-server applications. This has opened the door for new software vendors who can offer a more up-to-date user experience.
The increasing popularity of web development has also reduced the cost of developing new SaaS solutions which has enabled providers to come up with new products and challenge traditional vendors.
The increasing availability of broadband level internet access has also enabled remote, centrally-hosted applications to offer speeds comparable to on-premises software.
Benefits of SaaS
SaaS applications can reduce IT costs as a result of the vendor maintaining the system. This also allows the IT department to focus on other more critical pursuits as they no longer need to update and maintain software.
SaaS allows for scalability so that the application or service can grow to match the business' needs over time and gives the company immediate access to the latest version of programs with automatic updates.
SaaS is also generally more reliable as the provider ensures that solutions are never down and are always available to users.

This is our little neighbor. His dad is deployed in Syria and everyday he comes to the door asking to work with our dad. Appreciate today💓 pic.twitter.com/RdAHwh2Thm— Molly Cravens (@Molly_Cravens17) June 18, 2017
When 5-year-old Brian Kelly's dad was deployed overseas with the Air Force in May, the little boy had a hard time being separated from his father.
Fortunately, the Belleville, Illinois boy's neighbor stepped up to help fill the gap Brian's father, Daniel left when he departed for Syria.
MORE: A Photographer Photoshopped a Woman's Deployed Husband Into Her Maternity Photo
"Brian is fascinated with weed whackers and lawn mowers," Brian's mom Barbara Kelly told Today. "He says he wants to be a lawn more man when he grows up."
It's a fascination that neighbor Dean Cravens noticed when the family moved into the neighborhood last year. Cravens often observed the little boy helping his father in their yard. After the deployment, Brian started visiting Cravens' yard.
"He had more time on his hands without his dad around," Cravens explained. "He didn't have that person."
Cravens, who has three daughters ranging in age from 16 to 26, started giving Brian small gardening jobs. As they worked, the two discovered that they had other common interests, like baseball, golf and basketball.
Now, the pair shares a second father-son relationship. On Father's Day, Cravens knocked on Brian's door and asked the little boy if he wanted to play and Cravens' daughter, Molly, captured the touching gesture and shared it on Twitter.
While Brian is definitely benefiting from having Cravens to step in while his dad's away, Cravens' daughters also find their own lives enriched by having Brian as a "little brother."
"I'm familiar with a lot of families with deployed parents from school and I wanted people to appreciate that situation," Molly said. "Brian and my dad are absolutely adorable. It's like having a little brother whenever he comes around."

About Seattle Washington:
Welcome to the Emerald City. Visit a cosmopolitan city where you can shop at fine boutiques, eat fresh seafood at a trendy restaurant, and still breathe fresh air. In the words of Perry Como,"The bluest skies I've ever seen are in Seattle." Despite the city's relatively brief history, diversity and tradition fill the streets of Seattle. This medium-sized urban hub is booming economically, growing and evolving at a rapid rate, with help from multinational corporations like Microsoft and Starbucks. For many who live here, however, the blue skies, abundant water and picturesque mountain ranges are what make this beautiful city so appealing.
Fun Facts About Seattle:
– Seattle was named after Noah Sealth, chief of the Duwamish and Susquahamish tribes and was better known as "Chief Seattle."
– The Space Needle is Seattle's most recognizable landmark, and was used in the logo for the TV show, "Frasier."
– The Bank of America Tower is the 4th tallest skyscraper west of the Mississippi, and the 12th tallest in the nation.
– In 1961, Seattle became home to the first revolving restaurant.
– Starbucks, the world's largest coffee chain, was founded in Seattle.

Traffic cones are like an obstacle course for truck drivers. Or a competency test. At times, it's a challenge, to miss them. But it's kind of fun too. Non-truck drivers generally place the cones on the road and sometimes they leave enough room for a truck to negotiate a turn and sometimes they do not. Usually, it's the latter.
As a truck driver, when I encounter traffic cones, I like to see if I can get my truck through without knocking any over. Just because I like a challenge. However, once I determine that there simply isn't enough room, the game changes to something like bowling—it's time to see how many cones I can take out!
But, if the cones are on the freeway, that's a different story. Hitting anything, even a small rubberized plastic traffic cone is not advisable. At freeway speeds, those little cones become very destructive. So, I try NOT to hit the cones on the freeway. That doesn't always work.
Last week, I was driving through the construction. The freeway was down to one lane, with cones set up to keep vehicles out of the work area. But someone had felt it necessary to run over quite a number of cones, scattering them all over the road. By the time they showed up in my headlights, it wasn't really feasible to stop. I tried to dodge them the best I could but there were too many. A single lane, and no shoulder didn't help matters any. I ended up hitting at least two of them.
I'd barely made it out of the construction when my warning light and buzzer were going off. I was losing air. After pulling over, I saw that one of the cones had taken out an airline to my brakes. The brake had tried to lock up but all it succeeded in doing was heating up the brake and wheel. By the time I'd gotten stopped, the wheel was glowing red-hot.
I called our mechanic and he came out to fix the truck. In a little over an hour I was on my way. Not bad. In fact, not near as bad as the guy who I assume was the one to originally hit the cones. His car was still there on the side of the road the next day—missing a bumper and a flat tire. Glad I was driving a truck! ~

In this MegaVote for New York's 25th Congressional District:
Recent Congressional Votes
- Senate: Employment Nondiscrimination – Passage
Upcoming Congressional Bills
- Senate: Drug Quality and Security
- House: Health Plans
Recent Senate Votes Employment Nondiscrimination – Passage – Vote Passed (64-32, 4 Not Voting)
Senators passed a bill prohibiting employment discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity on Thursday after a week of negotiations and close procedural votes. The bill would bar employers from firing, refusing to promote or refusing to hire workers because of their actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity. Similar bills have been introduced over recent years, and one passed the House in 2007 before dying in the Senate. This current piece of legislation extends equal employment protection to transgendered individuals for the first time. The bill exempts employers not subject to existing workplace discrimination laws concerning employees' religions, primarily churches and religious schools. Before the final vote, ten Republicans joined the Democratic caucus in securing the three-fifths vote majority required to invoke cloture. The House is unlikely to vote on the bill.
Sen. Charles Schumer voted YES
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand voted YE
Upcoming Votes Drug Quality and Security – H.R.3204
The Senate returns Tuesday to consider legislation that updates regulations of pharmacies that compound drugs.
Health Plans – H.R.3350
The House is scheduled to debate a bill that allows individuals to keep their health coverage plans, even if they have received cancellation notices. The plans may not meet minimum coverage requirements established in the 2010 health care overhaul, but would be "grandfathered" for another year through 2014.

Just as the industrial revolution changed cities, workers and business across the globe, so too has the disruption of the web. Online businesses are growing by leaps and bounds and the demarcation line between markets is becoming a faint memory. The new market is not interested in political boundaries between markets or taking time to get the goods into the marketplace.
As the pace of business increases, the ability to make global payment services the center for all financial transactions grows as well. But as with all change, we are bound to have a price to pay for this growth. Just what will the big disruptors be for the global market today? We think these three global payment service disruptors will also be golden opportunities for the right businesses. How will your company take advantage of these opportunities for growth in the new world market?
The Migration from Cash to E-Payments
We are already seeing the impact that this has on the growing e-commerce market. In time this will become as common in the marketplace as credit cards and debit cards have become today when compared to as little as fifty years ago. Electronic payment from smartphones and through online global payment services for B2B transactions will become common quickly.
If you have a business that is capable of making the shift, you will be the one to not only survive the change but thrive on it. Companies that take advantage of this shift by making their business e-payment friendly will find they can turn their financial transactions around quickly and make better use of their cash flow.
Adopt or Perish
While this may have been the watchword of the business world in the start of the electronic age, it has never been truer then it is today. If your business cannot adapt to the new normal of doing business in the world of the web, with electronic transactions taking over where cash once ruled, you will soon be left behind in your competitor's dust.
While loyalty will buy you time, it will only go so far. When small nimble companies make the adjustments that larger businesses cannot make, we will see the emergence of a new class of business that can shift with the winds of change and adapt to whatever is needed in today's business world. The way financial transactions are done, making use of global payment services in the new world market will be the litmus test for the survival of the fittest.
Delivering Innovative Global Payment Services that Add Value
The competition is going to be fierce and the companies that can delivery the services their customers demand with an added value of convenience or security will be the winners. If you can deliver within 24 hours from their computer, soon you will need to deliver within four hours from their smartphone. Amazon is a good example of a company that continues to find new ways to add value to the customer purchasing experience.
What will your business do to deliver the goods not only as your customer wants them and when they want them, but also exceed all expectations of good customer service? If everyone offers the same red shoes, why buy them from you? In the end it is the added value of great customer service that will mark the winners of this race.

Editorial Style Guide: T
telephone numbers. Do not use the numeral "1" before area codes. Proper form is: 530-752-1930 or 555-1212, ext. 11. Use a hyphen, not an en dash. See the AP Stylebook's "telephone numbers" entry. TTD and TTY are not interchangeable acronyms for telecommunication devices for the deaf. TTD stands for teletype device (and is the most current technology), and TTY stands for telephone teletype (an older technology).
television programs. See the "television programs" heading under the composition titles entry.
tense. In general, use tense consistently throughout a story. However, tenses may be intermingled as appropriate to context—i.e., to distinguish terminated from continuing action: "I disagree," she said. But she continues to encourage students to present new ideas. Rule of thumb: The verb form "say(s)" suggests past as well as continuing action: She says baseball is boring; verbs such as think, regard, deny and hope written in present tense can coexist comfortably with other verbs in other tenses: She said she thinks baseball is boring.
In general, UC Davis Magazine and Dateline UC Davis use past tense for attribution in shorter news stories and present tense in feature stories. For press releases, attribution is usually in past tense.
that, which. "That" is the preferred pronoun to introduce an essential clause. "Which" is the only acceptable pronoun to introduce a non-essential clause. AP defines an essential clause (restrictive clause) as one that cannot be eliminated without changing the meaning of the sentence—it is essential to the meaning of the sentence. An essential clause must not be set off from the rest of a sentence by commas. A non-essential clause, which can be eliminated without changing the meaning of the sentence, must be set off by commas. Here's an example of a sentence containing an essential phrase: Campus events that require special lighting are held in the Main Theatre. In that sentence, the phrase "that require special lighting" is essential to the meaning and, if omitted, would change the meaning and understanding of the sentence.
Now here's an example of a sentence containing a non-essential phrase: This year's Picnic Day parade, which lasted two hours, included 10 marching bands. The material within the commas is not essential in identifying the parade being discussed, serving only to provide additional information about it. In that case, eliminating the phrase "which lasted two hours" would not alter the meaning of the sentence, and the phrase is therefore non-essential.
the. Lowercase when used with organizations. Capitalize when used with the name of newspapers and periodicals if they are part of the proper title:
- The findings were reported in The Sacramento Bee. (In press releases, The Sacramento Bee would not be italicized.)
- The measure was approved by the University of California Board of Regents (not The University of California Board of Regents).
- She works for the Dow Chemical Co. (not The Dow Chemical Co.).
theatre. The spelling for all generic references to auditoriums and the theatrical arts. Use "er" ending (theater) only if part of proper name.
- UC Davis theatre and dance department
- Main Theatre
- Sacramento Community Center Theater
- Varsity Theatre
- Wyatt Pavilion Theatre
time. Per AP, always use figures, except with noon and midnight; use lowercase type and periods, but no spaces, with "a.m." and "p.m.": 11 a.m., 3:30 p.m., 3:30 that afternoon, noon, midnight, 10–11 a.m. (use an en dash for ranges), 10 a.m.–3 p.m., from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. See the AP Stylebook's "times" and "time of day" entries.
titles. In general, capitalize formal or courtesy titles—president, chancellor, professor, senator—before names of individuals, and lowercase formal titles following names of individuals. Lowercase descriptive or occupational titles—teacher, attorney, history professor, department chair—in all cases. (Note that professor alone stands as a formal title and warrants capitalization—an exception to AP—but "history professor" is, like "math teacher," an occupation, and should be lowercased.) When lowercased adjectives are added to titles before a name, lowerase them all.
- Linda P.B. Katehi, chancellor;
- Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi;
- Vice Chancellor Judy Sakaki;
- Judy Sakaki, vice chancellor for Student Affairs (not "vice chancellor—Student Affairs");
- history professor Tom Rosen;
- Professor of History Tom Rosen;
- Tom Rosen, professor of history;
- Max Little, professor of English;
- department chair Harry Johnson;
- Professor Emeritus Tom Martin;
- Tom Martin, professor emeritus of physics;
- Dean Neal Van Alfen;
- Deans Nicole Biggart and Bennie Osburn;
- law school dean Rex Pershbacher
- nutrition lecturer Liz Applegate (see lecturers, lectures, lectureships entry);
- Professor Thomas Richardson fills the Peter J. Shields Chair in Dairy Food Science in the Department of Food Science and Technology;
- Thomas Richardson is the Peter J. Shields Professor in Dairy Food Science (capitalized because it is the formal name of an endowed chair);
- Thomas Richardson is the holder of the Peter J. Shields Chair in Dairy Food Science;
- visiting professor Carlo Rossi ("visiting professor" is a salary title but not a salutation);
- Carlo Rossi, visiting professor in the Department of Viticulture and Enology.
See Chicago 8.31 and the AP Stylebook's "academic titles" entry. For proper names of endowed chairs and professorships at UC Davis consult appropriate academic departments. On first reference in press releases, use the formal title Dr. (plural Drs.) only before the names of individuals who hold a degree in medicine, veterinary medicine or dentistry (M.D., D.V.M., M.P.V.M., D.D.S. or equivalent): Dr. Sarah J. Woerner or Sarah J. Woerner '72, M.D. '76; but not Dr. Sarah J. Woerner '72, M.D. '76. ("Dr." and "M.D." are redundant.) See doctor entry.
For "coach" titles, capitalize before a name when used without a qualifier: head coach Bob Biggs, Coach Sandy Simpson, offensive coach Dan Gazzaniga. Lowercase "coach" when it stands alone or is set off from the individual's name by commas: The victorious team members surrounded their coach, Stephanie Hawbecker. Sandy Simpson, head coach of the women's basketball team, is an inspirational leader.
COURSES. Use roman type, capitalized, within quotation marks, for course titles: "Introduction to Astrophysics."
GENDER NEUTRALITY. Use chair, not "chairman" or "chairwoman" or "chairperson," unless part of a formal title: He chaired the committee. Lois Weeth was chair of the UC Davis Foundation board of trustees. See the trustee entry.
WORKS. See composition titles entry.
town names. See the city, town names entry.
trademarks. When possible, use generic equivalents, but if a trademark is used for emphasis or effect, capitalize it. Observe the capitalization schemes of individual trademarks or service marks, but be aware that ordinarily capitalization of only the first letter of a brand name is necessary; do, however, capitalize all letters composing acronyms: BASS/Ticketmaster, for example, stands for Bay Area Seating Service.
Trademarks are proper names that identify the products of a business; service marks perform the same function for services. Trademark names should be accompanied by generic terms to fully describe the product: Kleenex tissues. A trademark should not be used as a verb. (Don't say I Xeroxed this; instead say I photocopied this or I made photocopies of this.) Do not pluralize trademarks. (Instead of saying He used three Kleenexes to blow his nose, say He used three Kleenex tissues.) However, some trademarks are registered in the plural and should always be used that way even if the common noun following them is singular (a Baggies plastic bag).
Symbols signifying a trademark (™), copyright (©) or a registration with the U.S. Patent Office (®) are primarily for the use of the owner to indicate rights; use of the symbols is not required in journalistic publications. (One exception: © is used with reproductions of photos of the Eggheads.)
Former trademarks that became generic terms through abuse include trampoline, raisin bran, linoleum, lanolin, yo-yo, escalator and nylon. For additional information, see the International Trademark Association website.
trustee. Treat this as a formal title when appropriate and capitalize in such cases if used before a name: Trustee Les Harvey; but Les Harvey, trustee of the UC Davis Foundation.
TTD, TTY. TTD and TTY are not interchangeable acronyms for telecommunication devices for the deaf. TTD stands for teletype device (and is the most current technology), and TTY stands for telephone teletype (an older technology).

Signs (parte the Firste)
Right, that's outta me system now. In other news, hasn't this week flown by? I mean, I were just thinking it were another soul-destroying Monday, when ~ bam! ~ I find it's already Saturday! What happened there then?
And now fer summat completely different: Students and their wacky, weird and wonderful ideas ~ I don't know, those crazy kids, eh! So, lesson: Signs and Notices. Class: six eleven-year-olds, bored as a ninety-foot well. I hold up this pic:
and say "What does this mean then?"
No-one answers. I intimidate a wee lad till he runs purple, then gasps out his desperate answer.
"No toilets," says he.
The effect were instantaneous. I roar with laffter, and then a few seconds later, when five pennies have dropped, the rest of't room laffs too. Suddenly everyone has a lateral-thinking answer and we tear through the entire box of signs with ball-bouncingly funny subsequence.
But no, I'm not letting you have em all now. You'll have to wait fer a bit first.
That's it. I'm off to bed ~ we're off to Macau tomorrow, yippee!! Casinos and peanut crackle and ferries and iPods and walkings and buyings and arguings and eatings and taking picturings and stuff! Woo-hoo!
Peach and lube.

Dirk came third, Jermaine Jackson second and Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty won it. Highest Brit was 'H' from Steps in 4th who was an ok guy. Rest of the Brits were embarrassing at best. The 'nice guys' came out on top which was a refreshing change.
