VIVA PARAGUAY!

Nice goal to put them 1-0 up on their first real threat of the match.

haha, it's pretty dang desperate though

I will concede it’s probably the worst junk body message, though. We need to get the comment count way up so most people scroll right passed that.

Italy is another team with no ideas in the creative midfield department. And not enough movement.

Need to make some substitutions.

Though Paraguay had no midfield at all and was lucky to make the goal, that’s how soccer sometimes goes.

by Norsktroll on Jun 14, 2010 12:20 PM PDT reply actions  

Italy look terrible

Paraguay is basically conceding the midfield, but Italy is still putting no pressure on them at all. Reminiscent of Japan vs. Cameroon earlier.

If the Big Twelve Conference stays together for the most part and eventually adds TCU and SMU, then ...

I’ll be a happy camper. Unlike some folks, I just never bought into the whole idea of Texas joining a coastal conference like the Pac-10 or the SEC.

Is A & M the new lynchpin?

Seems like the arrangement would be viable if they stick around with all the dough their football program brings. Why they would want to do this while Texas gets special consideration to start their own TV network is beyond me, however.

by atomiccafe on Jun 14, 2010 1:56 PM PDT up reply actions  

If A & M has the choice of starting its own network in the SEC or taking the shaft from Tejas in the Big 12, you think they stick around just for tradition? I suppose its possible.

by atomiccafe on Jun 14, 2010 2:01 PM PDT up reply actions  

The SEC, which isn't known for expansion, wouldn't add Texas A&M as a 13th team just for ...

the heck of it. Also, I think if the SEC does expand — which I think is an unlikely proposition — it’ll probably do so by raiding the ACC for Clemson, Georgia Tech, Florida State, and Miami.

by AK1984 on Jun 14, 2010 2:05 PM PDT up reply actions  

tea leaves, obv

It clearly makes little sense for them to add A & M unprompted, but it might make more sense than any of the ACC schools, which don’t bring much that the conference doesn’t already have.

http://www.fanblogs.com/sec/008348.php

by atomiccafe on Jun 14, 2010 2:09 PM PDT up reply actions  

Ultimately, SEC expansion will likely involve Clemson, Georgia Tech, FSU, and Miami.

In my mind, Texas will only have its own TV network by staying in a desperate Big Twelve Conference that’ll concede such a demand. Additionally, Texas A&M is stuck at the hip — for better or worse, no matter how they like it — with Texas.

This reminds me a story about a professor of International Law in Oviedo.

He didn´t want to give good grades to people who didn´t assist to his classes, even when someone was really really good in the exams. It helped him to punish them that the last exam was an oral one. According to the story, there was a guy, almost a genius, who completely dominated the subject (international laws) but hadn´t assisted to classes.

Well, considering that Slovakia and New Zealand could be two of the worst teams in the cup both Italy and Paraguay should have a good chance to advance

Nothing extraordinary, but not extremely disappointing performance. Funniest thing was a postgame interview where one Italian player constantly claimed they had played great and there was nothing to worry about. At least they have delusional confidence.

That's the problem...

They have the guns. It just chaps my (insert anatomical reference of your choice) that they can keep the public and authorized media reps out of certain areas just because they don;t want people to see the scope of what’s happening. That’s just wrong on every level.

What they are doing has nothing to do with clean-up worker safety (and we all know about BP’s concern for worker safety) or any other valid reason. It is simply to control the ’message". And they are doing do in a manner that clearly violates LA state law regarding public ownership of beaches.

the problem is

based on some weird legislation passed after the Exxon Valdez debacle, BP’s liability is limited to 75 million. So until that law changes, BP is basically paying out for the cleanup out of the goodness of its heart and out of concern for its PR.

same general idea though… I think if BP were to fight paying though they would risk getting smacked for punitive damages in a Government brought lawsuit or some sort of retribution via legislation… (neither of those is ideal or how the system should work, but they are both options I imagine are on the table)

by The Arkitect on Jun 14, 2010 3:09 PM PDT up reply actions  

the problem being that BP has claimed they will honor all meritorious claims, meaning they get to make the judgment on whether to pay out. How this all plays out in the end is very much unclear and will not be resolved for at least a decade (the Exxon Valdez judgment was only finalized two years ago!).

The offerings in the iBook Store are expanding (so far good, not great). And there is a Kindle application for the iPad directly from Amazon, so your access to resources is unlimited. Also anything in PDF format, or any audio books from Audible or similar sites.

The advantage of the Kindle is the standby time, though the iPad isn’t bad in that department in any way but still takes more power. The screen is a bit crisper due to the e-ink technology, though that also isn’t a huge difference anymore (especially compared to what is now on the iPhone 4 which might be even a better resolution). And so far the Kindle only uses black and white, and that won’t change soon. So magazines, newspapers blogs and websites look a bit weird on it. Both aren’t really ideal for direct sunlight, so reading on the beach is still not a great idea.

The Kindle also provides access to popular blogs, newspapers, etc. and the access is free (in the US, and some selected countries). But it really isn’t exactly a web-browsing device due to the black and white screen. I think the maker of the e-ink screen did demonstrate color displays at some trade shows, but Amazon has no plans to change to that soon according to pundits. In fact, they might eventually quit the device manufacturing/selling market and just provide the reading and shopping application, since that is not their business. They just wanted to help launch the ebook market to new heights while establishing that those books cost 9 to 14 dollars as the average price, and they have very well succeeded in that endeavor.

The key is the e-ink.

Amazon has a kindle reader for every tablet (including the small netbook tablets). But they’re all active LCD’s, which will make your eyes tired faster.

Supposedly that’s what makes the Kindle special. I know that Apple and Microsoft have tablets with a capable Amazon reader, but I’m curious if the e-ink makes a difference.

I want one for Father's day....

(hint, hint)

The reasons I really, really want one…

1. Smaller form factor – closer in size to a real book.

2. Longer battery life

3. highly legible in all lighting conditions.

The lack of color doesn’t bother me one bit. These old eyes like high contrast text and backgrounds, and you simply cannot get better legibility than black text on a white background.

Again, if you’re looking to buy me a wonderful Father’s Day gift, just head over to Amazon.

(This message is primarily meant for my son who also posts here….but if any others want to buy me one for Father’s Day, I am more than willing to make you an honorary family member. But you still won’t be in my will.)

Oh, and re:Lost

I liked the finale fine, I felt it was very Lost-y. It didn’t make me angry, though I did look up what people were saying about it and other questions that I didn’t feel were answered.

I liked the show overall, I enjoyed my time watching it, but I firmly believe the first two seasons (which were my favorite) are almost a separate thing and that the end result wasn’t something they knew they were shooting for until a few seasons ago. It’s not a bad thing, just that it makes the first two seasons full of nothing but red herrings (like why they were stealing kids, Walt’s mental powers, junk like that).

The finale was fun.

But they likely changed how they wanted the show to proceed and end, and then stuff like that gets glossed over and not addressed as much as it originally likely did. Maybe.

Who knows? The show had a grip of storylines and questions, almost impossible to satisfactorily settle them all.

Cuse and Lindleof said the reason they didn’t have Walt back is simply cause the kid actor got too big. so really, sorta poor planning. and without Walt there, Michael doesn’t have much to do. His role in season 4 was a bit forced as it was.

Haha, Walt did grow up a lot when they did use him briefly

But c’mon, he isn’t allowed to age?

I guess I ain’t sure how much time had passed in the “modern day” timeline of Lost… shoot, just say “wow, Future-Walt is here! He’s so tall!”.

i think i’ll need a re-watch to really cobble the timeline together, but i think, in total, 3 years would have passed from episode one to the finale. and Walt looked much older than just 3 more years. hahaha

One thing about Always Sunny that I tell everyone who is going to venture into it.

Give it time. The first few episodes aren’t as good as the rest of it. Once Devito joins it’s a whole new ballgame. Breaking Bad is so good, Morty. Ya gotta catch up on that one, too. Last night’s finale was crazy. Mad Men always makes me want Scotch, so Ash’s desire to watch it with his good scotch makes plenty of sense to me.

Here's a more interesting comment of mine from last month.
“Nah, the four Texas schools would stay intact and basically rebuild a supersized version of the old Southwest Conference. A coalition of Baylor, Houston, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Rice, Southern Methodist, Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Christian, and Texas Tech would work on a regional level, although it’d take somewhat of a hit nationally.”

http://www.blazersedge.com/2010/5/11/1427988/baylesssezhatersgonnahate#37334237

Folks like atomiccafe underestimated Texas’ desire to leverage the other schools in the Big Twelve Conference for its own monetary desires. For Texas, a regional conference in which the school has its own TV network is gold.

With that said, I’m surprised that the Big Ten Conference didn’t invite Missouri and Iowa State, too, but since that didn’t happen the Big Twelve Conference only needs to add two old Southwest Conference schools instead of all remaining four.

by AK1984 on Jun 14, 2010 5:02 PM PDT up reply actions  

Had the Big 10 invited Missouri, I don’t think the Big 12 would be salvageable. Too many mouths not enough money. I wonder if this was intentional on the part of the Big 10—allow the Big 12 another lease on life to buy time and plot its next move.

by atomiccafe on Jun 14, 2010 5:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

My guess is they invite Utah to get to 12 before the negotiate a new TV contract. But who knows….whatever makes the schools/teams more money is how it will probably shake out. That’s what swayed Texas. They get a big piece of the Big 12 Tv contract, but can still form their own Texas network as well.

Lol, I knew I should have gone to Oxford & Co for the perks: Become a master without being one

You can get “Undergraduate Master Degrees” in several sciences just by waiting 10 years when your bachelor degree gets “upgraded”, and Master of Arts degrees for B.A.s or B.F.A.s after 7 years.

The degree of Master of Arts is awarded to B.A.s and B.F.A.s seven years after matriculation, without further examination, upon the payment of a nominal fee. Recipients of undergraduate masters’ degrees are not eligible to incept as M.A., but are afforded the same privileges after the statutory twenty-one terms. This system dates from the Middle Ages, when the study of the liberal arts took seven years.

The documentary on Caddyshack yesterday

Showed a review from Gene Shalit, just blasting the movie as one of the worst of the year, and how bad Murray, Chase, Dangerfield and Knight were. Apparently that was the overall critic response.

Ramis made a joke that when he looked at a TV Guide in the 80’s, Caddyshack had two stars. When he looked at it in the 90’s, it had three. Then of course someone added “And now, Caddyshack is Caddyshack…. and Gene Shalit is Gene Shalit”.

Regarding the players in that article, the Utah Jazz should select Brian Zoubek with the 55th pick.

Zoubek would be a cheap replacement for Kyrylo Fesenko, who’s a restricted free-agent this summer.

I think Travis Outlaw could get the full MLE from a team such as, oh, the Memphis Grizzlies. It's ...

harder to peg what’ll happen with Kyrylo Fesenko, though, since the market is tight this year and he won’t get MLE level payday — which’d be based solely on size — like Marcin Gortat did last summer.

I’m not doubting that C. Ronaldo and the real Ronaldo are better players than Klose. Just mentioning that he is one of the top scorers in world cup history, though an 8-0 vs. Saudi Arabia in 2002 has something to do with that.

Klose was a great, great player between ‘03/’04 and about ‘07. Not top five in the world, but people who think he’s lucky to be snaring those goals in the WC are off base.

by atomiccafe on Jun 14, 2010 7:28 PM PDT up reply actions  

He's one of the most dangerous head-ball strikers I've ever seen

That goal against Australia was a classic for him, just like the chance he missed. He’s a nightmare to cover for smaller defenders who can’t get up as high since he’ll just push them out of the way and when he’s on he’s very determined to get to the ball and score. He’s also a pretty unselfish striker who goes back to help defend or bring balls up front and assist others. Only when he gets cold because nobody flanks to him, he really can get cold for long stretches and then he gets down on himself. That the coach trusted him to start him again probably meant a lot to his psyche.

Yep, totally the opposite in the US

If a studio thinks a movie will be good (or even simply “not terrible”), they’ll do a review round. It gives a movie a lot of buzz, and often they’ll use quotes from the critics in opening-weekend commercials. Even the mediocre ones, since they’ll still get some good reviews to grab a quote from.

It’s all from Siskel and Ebert. They made a show that brought critics into the mainstream, and ever since, critic reviews of movies are just part of popular culture.

Here's my Maury Povich insurance story of the day.

Claim is filed, stating “insured’s grand-daughter is accused of attacking her neighbor.”

The Facts: Our insured and her 11 year old grand-daughter live together. Mom is not in the picture. 11 year-old and her aunt get in a fight of some kind, and the grandma is trying to keep the aunt from pummeling the girl. The girl then throws water in the aunt’s face and throws a drinking glass at her, causing an injury. Fine.

Why were they fighting? The aunt found out that the 11 year old got caught having sex with 15 and 16 year old boys in the park. To quote my co-worker, “it has yet to be determined if she was having sex with them at the same time.”

ELEVEN YEARS OLD!

I’m shocked Maury isn’t on the scene already. Imagine the possibilities for the montage video. “I’m only 11 and my mama can’t keep me from sleeping with all the boyz, cuz imma gonna have a baby! my man gives me whatever i want, and all i gotta do is do what he says. momma can’t stop me!” ( go to 3:35)

EP FTW!

I read somewhere this week that girls (in the US or western countries) on average now begin puberty before age 10, way earlier than 20/50/100 years ago and still earlier than most boys.

Some of that are earlier hormonal/developmental changes by evolution and better environmental conditions (like people grow taller and taller and get older and older on average), though I guess some of it is media influence telling people way earlier to discover their sexuality.

Sure. The news I think was that it now dropped below 10 for girls.

Well, I'm pretty sure there are rare cases -- as sick as it is -- of girls pregnant at like 9 or 10.

That stuff gives me the heebie-jeebies, though, especially considering that many of those cases most likely involve rape and/or incest. All right, it’s time for me to shift gears and focus on a more uplifiting topic.

It's well imaginable that NBC is a casualty of GE's management processes

Hardly anymore top of the industry, which for GE is usually a sign to divest. Not many hits. Not a great revenue stream with declining ad dollars much less a field that looks to grow and grow. And next to no overlapping (i.e. any synergies) with their industrial businesses. Fairly easy to see why they might want to get out of it and sell to someone closer to that industry. Unfortunately they found a company that also doesn’t seem to be that great about managing to what would make their customers really really happy.

Oh man I hate that show

They always seem to pick the bad comics, and the judges are usually AWFUL so it’s not anyone people respect… until this year, they got Greg Geraldo and Andy Kindler, both funny guys who comics like. The girl is kinda not great though. I saw her in a club last year and she was sucky and wasn’t even trying. I know she is on Chelsea Handler so she is big time now…?

I’m not sure what season I watched but it was the last season I watched of the show (the beginning parts) and the judges were so bad… Alonzo Bodden and one of the overly gay comics that competed on the show before. And non-funny guest judges. They would tell people who were funny that they weren’t funny when, indeed, Cabby, they, indeed, were the not, funny, ones.

Mini-world cup preview for Tuesday

New Zealand v. Slovakia-4:30 AM-New Zealand is either the worst or next to worst team in the tournament (North Korea is the other possible choice) so Slovakia need to win this one if they have any realistic shot of making the second round.

Portugal v. Ivory Coast-7 AM-Will Drogba be allowed to play with a cast on his arm? Only FIFA knows the answer to that question. Even if he’s healthy, you’d probably have to fancy Portugal here, both teams will be pressing for a win in the group of death.

Brazil vs. North Korea-11:30-About the only favor anyone at FIFA has done with this match is place to start at 3:30 AM Wednesday local in North Korea. It is going to be really brutal, by which I mean 5 or 6-0 is not out of the question, if not more lopsided than that. The Dear Leader’s team will fall apart to the sounds of the Brazilian attack.

One of the professors at PSU was married to one of the Pizzacato owners and would always get Pizzacato for faculty functions. They have this amazing Thai Chicken pizza. If I was going to have someone make a pizza from scratch, I might go with Pizzacato. If I just want to grab a slice, always Hot Lips

To avoid it being reported to insurance and paying money, just go on the date. If they keep trying to take it further, use your best judgement. It might not be so bad though, compared to increased insurance rates.

I thought I was going to die the other day.

We were by the Zoo right after the tunnel in the middle lane. A Jeep going so damn slow in the fast lane decided to cut us off so my mom got in the fast lane to go around her. The Jeep turns her right signal on to go over one more lane, when all of a sudden she swerves in front of us in the left lane. My mom slams on the brakes and swerves over a little bit onto the shoulder to avoid hitting her.

The DA must have head checked and turned the wheel the wrong way at the same time.

kids at my high school were caught fooling around with each other. It’s almost similar to old people, who either shut down sexually or ramp it up in their elder years.

story that such an incident happened during school hours in one of the bathrooms. Then again, I’d’ve been upset and embarrassed had my sister ever done something that vile.

It's a reasonable thing to feel.

It’s weird enough to have any little sister around you at school (I have one who’s five years younger and one who’s twelve years younger). Adding special needs at that age would be difficult on anyone. Not sure if this is what you were implying, but it makes sense.

At least one will never date (the one with Down’s).

Thankfully, for now, he took her back. The youngest one has had several boyfriends already, and most have been dbags who I wanted to curbstomp. This newest one ain’t bad though

My sisters don’t make me worry ever… the youngest married a nice boy of mystery ethnicity, so while he is likely a sleeper cell he is at least nice for now.

Sorry, I'll rephrase.

The apostrophe feels forgotten by you.

punctuation marks can do wonders to one’s intended statement.

’cause all guys are jerks and it makes it easier to get girls to like those who already likes them.

Ayuh

They have a word for girls that don’t like jerks. It’s ‘lesbians’.

by idoltime on Jun 15, 2010 12:28 AM PDT up reply actions  

really, ladies?

You either like jerks or are lesbians? There must be another category of ladies out their who don’t fit the prior two characterization.

ladies who like lesbian jerks

Ever see a sad, lonely woman?

That’s probably where the rest fall.

What's a fine young brother to do,

if these are the only choices? I should just shave my head and become a monk until a fine young lady comes around and lures me out of my monastic way.

Those are them!

My great-aunt was one. She also heard the voice of her dead mother talking to her through the pipes.

Yeah..I always think more crazy than lonely for cat ladies. But is the lonely the by-product of crazy or vice versa?

Women's two basic psychological conditions.

Are hysteria and penis envy. What can you expect?

But seriously, you’d be lonely and crazy too if your only chance of happiness was finding a good man.

Oh, thanks.

Make sure that I know that YOU KNOW how to spell it and I don’t.

I know all

and I know how to spell it better than I know how to spell my own name.

Hell, even a baby knows how to spell Kaleb Canales!

In people I know with variations of names like yours

I over-emphasize the final syllable to draw attention to the difference in ‘ay’ and ‘ey’.

NoOoooooooOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOO!!!

Hahaha yes.

In ultimate irony, Caleb Canales just made an appearance on the front page.

that's not ironic

it’s just coincidental

Me too.

It’s a strange marketing thing. The NBA can’t get away with it for some reason but hockey can. It bothers me that it barely exists anymore.

Stern was forced to over correct for the malice at the palace…it’ll eventually come back to center.

I wanna kiss Mo Lucas for being so tough

I haaaaaaaaaaaate how weak they’ve made the NBA now, it makes it so the players can’t self-correct for douches like KG. Guys who are just BEGGING to be punched.

Could you imagine if that brawl happened in this finals? They’d cancel the whole series and talk about how dangerous the players are.

The ref in the Portugal - Ivory Coast game isn't that great

Yellow card to C. Ronaldo and Demel for getting into a shouting match, but no card for two fouls that sent a player into getting treated for injuries.
