Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

8/2 evening JD


Somebody needed to start a new JD, and I guess that person is going to be me. More after the jump if that is your thing

Star-divide

I saw this headline today that made me smile.

Police discourage use of Tasers to haze problem bears

What news headlines have made you go "Hmmmmmmm"?

 

75 words is a lot longer than I thought. This JD also needs a poll. This is the very bestest poll in the history of polls

Denver is the only team that has any chance of somehow getting the 2nd seed I don’t believe OKC for one second, Stern will probably have something to say about that though.

table service sucks in Vegas now unless it's like 3am

not that I ever saw it in the glory days, but the very first time I went was with my parents (they took me for my 21st birthday) and they were both reminiscing about how cool it was back in the day cause you could just sit at a table and get drunk. The last night we were there my dad and I stayed at one blackjack table for 8 hours and went to bed at 630am when our flight left at 11. My mom was pissed off cause we were both still drunk heading to the plane.

I don’t think it’s really ever okay to really want to hurt someone. If they’ve wronged you or have cause you harm, there is likely to be an instinct to get back at them and you’re likely going to want to hurt them. But I still don’t think it’s really “okay.”

So if you just permanently disable them by cutting off various body parts but make sure to cauterize, it isn’t as bad as death. No arms. No legs. No eyes. No frontal lobe. No…

I mean, to answer his question, there are tortures worse than death in my opinion, but generally it is better to live.

injuring and torturing aren't necessarily congruent.

But this type of torture would fall under the umbrella of "injury".

Those are injuries.

I could simply reword it:
“I mean, to answer his question, there are injuries worse than death in my opinion, but generally it is better to live.”

I don’t think that was what the proposed question was built to deal with, but it should be clarified to remove such possibilities.

It's crazy how unattractive she is

She’s what, 19? 22? She looks so washed up and over 40— a hard 40.

Before I ever saw what she looked like, I thought it was mean that SNL had the fat dude play her in sketches. He looks so much nicer than her, and he’s my least favorite cast member.

I ain't judgi' Porgy, I ain't!

I’m just saying it is surprising how unattractive she is by any metric one can use to measure attractiveness.

Like, with Paris Hilton— I think she’s grody. But she’s skinny and blonde, and that’s a “thing”. Dudes like that.

I guess I like Snooki MORE because she’s so ugly, because we know she ain’t on TV for how good she looks. She’s like a lil’ monster.

Tblazers decided one day that he was going to randomly say “I’m stupid” to random things, I think this was somehow influenced by DTL, though I don’t remember the exact occasion and can’t find it right now.

Andre Miller is a great guy.

Miller, an 11-year veteran of the NBA who graduated from Utah in 1999, is spending the week helping with Utah coach Jim Boylen’s basketball camps.-Deseret-News

He’s also retiring in four years.

Miller, an ironman who has incredibly missed just five games in 11 seasons while starting 834 of 897 games, said his goal is to play four more years in the NBA before retiring.

ok, i thought about this last night and i’ve decided to change our bet. you don’t like the poetry, i get that. i shouldn’t force it on you.

so, instead, we’ll use your “poetry”. how about you pick your favorite rap song, type out the lyrics, and tell me what the song is about, why the way the song is structured is important, what the song means to you, how the musical choices affect the song. does that make sense?

this way you still have to do something for the bet, it will be something you might enjoy more, plus it will help me understand your musical tastes better.

USC writes a letter to their fans

http://espn.go.com/blog/pac10/post/_/id/11438/haden-writes-letter-to-usc-fans

Pat Haden used his first day as USC’s athletic director to write a letter to Trojans fans.

On NCAA sanctions:

During the period of our NCAA probation we won’t wake up each morning with a “woe is me” attitude as a result of the sanctions. I have failed if I cannot create a positive, upbeat environment that cultivates success in spite of the sanctions.


A message to Lane Kiffin that Haden doesn’t expect the Trojans to suddenly fall to .500? Maybe, but it seems clear Kiffin already knows that based on his comments at Pac-10 media day.

On a (new?) culture of compliance with NCAA rules:

We must have a culture of compliance at the beginning, middle and end of our definition of success. We plan to have the best, most proactive and robust compliance department in the country. I am not so naive as to expect we will not have compliance issues going forward. We will. But we will face them with honesty and a determination to do even better to prevent the next compliance issue. We must be vigilant 24/7 while allowing our athletes to enjoy being 18- to 21-year-olds on a college campus.

the roster is better this year than last…mainly because of how he screwed it up last year. That’s getting credit because you suck slightly less than a year ago.

Oh, don’t get me wrong, he obviously sucks. But unlike other awful GMs, he’s actually good at the first step of rebuilding a good team (stockpiling picks and space); he just doesn’t have a clue when it comes to talent evaluation or roster building/fit so all that good maneuvering and asset collection goes to waste.

Tiger Woods’ primary house will not be his for much longer, RadarOnline reports. According to the web site, wife Elin Nordegren will gain control of the home as part of the couple’s still-rumored divorce settlement.

The Woods-Elin divorce rumors picked up in late June, with one report claiming that divorce papers were “about to be signed” and another saying that the negotiations were in their “final meetings.” The former Swedish model is rumored to be receiving as much as $750 million, although TMZ has disputed the claim.

“The rigid brass key warmed in her hand before being inserted in the lock, then turning slightly, made a satisfactory click: a freeing sound which evoked in her memories of grassy fields and spring days. She pulled open the drawer, reaching for her delicate undergarments: white lace. After slipping them on, she shut the door, grabbed hold of the key but, lost in a daydream, did not completely free the key from the lock before jerking her hand to hard upwards, breaking the key in the lock. This was going to be a hard day.”

My terminology my be faulty

You literally described someone using a lock and key…albeit in a very sexy way.

I anticipated something more like this

"The rigid key lay warmly in her hand before being inserted in the lock. It slid smoothly into the keyhole with a slight, slippery sound : a freeing sound which evoked in her memories of grassy fields and spring days….especially one spring day from many years ago. She sees her delicate undergarments: white lace laying within view in her slightly opened drawer. Hours later, when slipping them on, she shut the drawer, grabbed hold another key, a colder key, but, lost in the daydream, did not completely free the key from the lock before jerking her hand to hard upwards, breaking the key in the lock. This was going to be a hard day."

One of the more storied teams in English football, Portsmouth, may be gone

Not just relegated, completely gone

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/8839169.stm

Portsmouth will find out on Thursday whether an appeal by tax authorities which disputes the amount of money they are owed has been successful.

HM Revenue & Customs says it is owed £13m more than the £24m claimed by Portsmouth’s administrators.

Pompey, who were relegated to the Championship in May, are striving to come out of administration.

If the appeal succeeds, Pompey could face a further points penalty and the threat of liquidation.

Gregory Mitchell QC representing HMRC told the High Court on Tuesday that the club were operating a “sham” to avoid paying more tax.

He accused the club of paying players via image rights instead of salaries, meaning they would not have to pay tax on their earnings as they could be deposited in offshore accounts.

Fulham owner Mohamed Al Fayed believes Roy Hodgson “took advantage” of the club after he left for Liverpool.

Hodgson took over at Craven Cottage at the end of 2007 after a stint in charge of the Finland national team and steered the team clear of relegation.

In the 2008-09 season, he took Fulham to the highest finish in their history – seventh – before reaching the Europa League final last season, where they were beaten 2-1 by Atletico Madrid.

Hodgson – who had previously managed sides including Switzerland, Blackburn and Inter – joined Liverpool this summer having enhanced his reputation at Fulham, and Al Fayed feels he might have shown more loyalty.

“[Mark Hughes] inherited a great team which had fantastic results but unfortunately this guy, after we put him where he is now, he took advantage and left us,” he said, “but good luck to him, good luck to Liverpool.”

Al Fayed is confident Mark Hughes will prove successful as Hodgson’s replacement.

“He is a nice guy. He is much better looking and I am sure that he will do a great job. I am sure that there will be no complications. We have a great managing director and chief executive and we’re happy to have someone like Mark in place.”

The top tube is actually a heavier duty down tube, and for the seat tube, we had to use straight guage 4130 seamless tubing. There isn’t a standard seat tube available in the 72cm length we needed… It is going to have a White Brothers suspension fork because they are the only ones that make a steer tube long enough."

They will

This is not about that, but here is a taste of what the Cleveland papers wrote today in a sports column.

http://www.cleveland.com/livingston/index.ssf/2010/08/quitters_never_win_the_miami_h.html

Today the NBA has a “super” team that is molded out of quitters, although is hard to see what’s so super about it. LeBron James and Chris Bosh, late of Cleveland and Toronto, respectively, expect to win enough rings in Miami, in combination with Dwyane Wade, to become “bling” kings.

Alas, controversy might be brewing over the use of king for anyone other than royalty, like Aethelred the Unready, and narcissistic NBA stars, like LeBron the Uncrowned.

There’s a regular little quitting bee going on in Miami. Both James and Bosh left as free agents, both under a cloud of accusations by officials of the Cavaliers and Raptors that they quit on their teams to ease their exits.

Toronto president Bryan Colangelo said Bosh “checked out” on the Raptors, declining to play after he was given medical clearance, as the team lost a fight with the Chicago Bulls for the final playoff berth.

James played — although it was hard to see to what effect — in the Game 5 rout by the Celtics. Afterward, Cavs owner Dan Gilbert publicly apologized for the lack of effort his team showed in that game. It proved to be merely the warmup pitches for the thunderous “chin music” symphony he composed for fans after James left.

I’ll watch the first season, I think. I like the acting and writing and really like the “Three Days of the Condor” feel, but I’m wary of the ability of a conspiracy show to stay compelling. Without a set end date, I feel like it’s inevitable that it unravels into a too convoluted mess where nothing ever gets answered. Also, the original show runner was replaced after the pilot, which can’t be a good sign. AMC’s been two for two with their dramas, though, so I’m hoping they come through with this one.

seasons 1 and 2 are great. they shoulda stopped there and just let them get away.

season 3 wasn’t so great, but i really liked the last part where Michael is driving down the road with the gun and the paper rose next to him. i was thinking season 4 was gonna be an awesome revenge/western themed sorta season. but then they didn’t do that. season 4 i thought was fairly entertaining but the ending of that show suuuuuuuuuuucked.

Every parent hates hearing this familiar line from the tot-through-teen lexicon, "I’m bored." Like chalk scraping on a chalkboard, there’s nothing more irritating than the ennui mantra. How do you translate what your child really means? Are they wanting entertainment, an emotional connection, or are they dissatisfied with life?

The common chord of the boredom complaint often strikes a sour note with parents. Before turning a deaf ear, try to figure out what’s behind your child’s boredom.

Cure discontent with these boredom busters

Build a strong bond with your child. Single-parent families move at such a fast pace that often our children don’t have enough time talk about their thoughts and feelings. "I’m bored" may reveal your child’s emotional need to gain one-on-one attention with you. Going a walk, playing a board game or even taking a drive where your child has your undivided attention may solve the problem. Just remember to turn off your cell phone to avoid interruptions.

Welcome downtime. Does your child’s complaint repertoire consisting of one note—"I’m bored"—a response to a jam-packed schedule or over-stimulation? Then give your child the interlude of downtime. Perhaps their tired bodies or minds need a rest. Allow them to do absolutely nothing, nap or sleep in.

Avoid the trap of cyber-worlds. Has screen time killed your children’s imaginations? Have they forgotten the art of entertaining themselves? Screen time (TV, Wii, and video games) can suck the imagination out of your child’s life. Turn off addictive, quick-fix boredom busting, passive activities like watching TV and playing video games. Turn on their imaginations to old-fashioned play that activates creating, thinking, exploring, contemplating, and connecting. How can they get to know an important person—themselves—if they’re never tuned into their own ideas and ingenuity?

Sidestep boredom with intentional boredom. Before scrambling to find ways to stimulate, entertain or engage your children, ask, "Is this an opportunity for my child to figure out what do to on his own?" If they can’t amuse themselves as children, how will they know how to be resourceful as an adult? Intentional boredom stimulates the imagination, independence and interpersonal skills.

Engage your child in community service. If your child is dissatisfied with their life, volunteering to help those who struggle may help them gain a broader perspective, plus it teaches compassion.

Need a new perspective on life? Volunteer at the Marian House Soup Kitchen. There are a variety of ways to involve your family.

Enjoy reading? The Children’s Literacy Center Youth Council is a volunteer organization for high school students in Colorado Springs that teaches leadership, responsibility and the importance of volunteering for life. They teach teens how to tutor others.

Love horses? Volunteer spending several hours a week helping kids with special needs gain confidence, improve balance, and acquire cognitive abilities and horseback riding skills. The Colorado Springs Therapeutic Riding Center helps teen volunteers learn about disabilities, horses, riding equipment, and therapeutic activities.

Or spend time with a lonely senior. Help out at an animal shelter.

Re-direct your child. Entertaining your child is not your job. The "I’m bored" chant is a child’s way of saying, "I don’t want to think of something to do. You figure it out for me." If this all-too-familiar pattern drives you nuts, avoid being ambushed by the Bored Game. Here’s how it works.

"Mom, there’s nothing to do. I’m bored."

"It’s a beautiful day. Why don’t you go for a ride on your bike?"

"It’s too cold/hot outside."

 "Why don’t you play checkers with your brother?"

"That’s no fun."

"Go build something with your Legos®."

"I can’t think of anything to build."

"Why don’t you read a book?"

"I don’t want to."

"What about playing with (name anything)?"

"It’s boring."

After your child rejects all of your best suggestions, you feel your blood pressure rising.

Try saying, "What can you do that’s more interesting?"

Disengage.

Ignore whining.

Allow your child take responsibility. If your child persists in grumbling, say, "You’re so creative. I’m confident you can think of something to do."

When all else fails, pull out the chore chart. Children love household tasks, right? Create a chore chart listing age-appropriate chores. When your child’s bellyaching turns your stomach into a knot, point to the chart. Give your child a choice, "Pick a chore or find something to do." It’s amazing how quickly their creativity kicks into high gear.

I think if the Thunder with 56+ or Orlando wins 60+ and the Heat win <68, a lot of writers would justify putting in a first place ballot for Howard or KD no matter what the numbers since they play on ‘one star’ teams and the Heat have three stars. That’s the kind of logic I expect to be tossed around a lot at the end of the season.

this lady went in to the doctor because she had this sore in her mouth or something. so they check it out and there’s this little hole in the inner part of her cheek. they didn’t know what it was really. well, the doctor has an idea. he takes this small piece of bacon and puts it near that little hole in the cheek. pretty soon, he starts pulling the bacon out. and, lo and behold, there was a skinny little worm that had bitten no to the bacon. he pulled it out through the hole. apparently the thing was really long.

PORTLAND, Ore. – The Portland Trail Blazers have announced their seven-game preseason schedule today, highlighted by a return to Memorial Coliseum for an exhibition against the Utah Jazz on Oct. 11.
 
Fans will have the chance to relive Rip City for the second straight year when Portland hosts Utah at the arena the Trail Blazers called home from 1970 to 1995.
 
Portland will take the first steps in building on last year’s 50-win season when it opens up the preseason slate with a home game against the L.A. Clippers on Tuesday, Oct. 5. The preseason opener is one of four home games and one of three at the Rose Garden. The Trail Blazers close out their exhibition schedule on Oct. 21, with a home game against the Denver Nuggets.
 
Preseason road games for the Trail Blazers include back-to-back contests at Utah and Denver on Oct. 7 and 8, followed by a visit to Golden State on Oct. 16.
 
The team will hold its popular Wells Fargo Fan Fest on Friday, Oct. 1. The intra-squad scrimmage is free to the public and tickets will be available at Wells Fargo stores in Oregon and SW Washington on Sept. 6.
 
Also on the preseason calendar is the second annual Hoops and Heart dinner Saturday, Oct. 23, when Trail Blazers team, coaches and alumni converge for an evening of fun and fundraising to impact our community’s future with a one-of-a-kind auction to benefit make it better.
 
Preseason tickets will go on sale in mid-September at the Trail Blazers box office, at 503.797.9600 or online at trailblazers.com.

thanks for pointing out that The Visitor expired on instant queue tomorrow. I’ve had it in my queue for months but hadn’t watched it and I didn’t realize it was done after tomorrow. I just finished it and I really liked it.

yeah i’d had it there for a while too. i don’t watch a ton off my instant queue so i scan it every now and then to see if anything is leaving.

i liked The Visitor also. it was sad. Richard Jenkins did a very good job in that though.

it looked way different to me. like a straight ahead horror flick. maybe they just put every scene like that in the trailer though to help sell it.

Been trying to figure it out myself and I thought it was legit. Some comments matched up to his official facebook, specifically one posted on Twitter today before it went on FB which was about him doing hill workouts with E Will.

Now I’m unsure – at first I thought it was a fake because it was not verified but it seemed strange it would be protected if it was a guy trying to get attention. Looks like Casey is gonna find out soon enough, I still think its more likely legit than a fake….

I’m fairly neutral on immigration issues, know almost nothing about international trade, cap and trade, tariffs, that kind of thing. Public vs. private schooling (including vouchers) could be interesting, big government vs. small government, socialism vs. libertarianism, all these are issues i’d be interested in discussing.

For your future, and your family’s future, slack must be stopped at all cost. Well, you get the point, this played over and over and over.

since I've become a purveyor of meat at the farmer's market, I have really started to question the whole thing.

I love eating meat, and have for a long time, but there was a time too in my younger days where I went without for almost five years. Of course I didn’t supplement my vegetarian diet properly and was pretty malnourished by the end, and I got tired of being tired all the time and really had a hankerin for a cheeseburger. So I started eating meat again when I was around 23 years old. I like so many people, sort of turned a blind eye to where our meat comes from and how it gets from farm to plate, and I was okay with this for a long time. Recently though, as I alluded to earlier, I’ve become very concerned with where meat comes from, and how the animals that are used are treated. The meat industry, and the mainstream food industry in general in this country, has forsaken food quality and food safety for low costs and high production. Our FDA and Dept. of Agriculture were being run by former lobbyists for the mega-ranchers and mega-farmers in this country, the same companies who have seen increases in E-coli, Salmonella, and Mad Cow Disease under their watch, and still tried to push these tainted goods through to market, and were appointed by the Bush Administration. Also, under their watch the number of FDA inspections have gone down considerably from the numbers that were happening annually in the 1970’s, while the number of meat packing companies have decreased and centralized, growing into mega-slaughterhouses that have been built out in the middle of nowhere, so that nosy consumers won’t have any idea what’s happening there. The meat packing industry has a much higher incidence of accidents now than it used to, and because so many animals are being processed in such few facilities the amount of processed meats that has the ability to be tainted has increased enormously. I have stopped buying meat from regular grocery stores, unless they can tell me where the meat is being produced, and I have stopped buying cooked meat from any restaurant that can’t tell me where their meat comes from. I am willing to pay more money for meat that comes from a farm that I can drive to, and witness firsthand the treatment and well-being of the animals which I choose to consume. I’m not trying to be preachy, though I know it sounds that way, I’m just trying to express how shocked I was to find out some of the things that happen in our industrial food chain, and decided if I was going to be a part of the industry, albeit second hand, I wanted to have the least negative impact, and hopefully a positive impact on the industry. Of course I am a small fish, but if things ever take off, I would want to use this ethos in any and all of our operations to the largest extent possible.

An interesting restaurant to look at regarding this is Chipotle. They have tried to support as many local and sustainable farmers as possible, and still offer good tasting, top quality food at reasonable prices.

unfortunately. the reasons you mentioned above are the reasons why i tend to frequent places who serve meats from humane farms. i’ll gladly pay extra $ to get meat from tails and trotters than to buy it at my local grocer.

it has a really smooth taste to it.

all the junk that is in most tobacco products is taken out so it’s just pure, really “smooth” tobacco. And it’s often flavored. I still don’t like it very much and would never set out to get it, but if I’m with a group at a hookah bar I’ll join in, whereas I would never smoke a cigarette, even with a group of all smokers.

Threesomes with two males is gay.

I know a couple people who don’t agree … why would a non-homosexual male want another man in bed with him? How does it add to the experience? Not that there’s anything wrong with being gay, just don’t act like you straight when you obviously ain’t.

To be fair, the act mentioned above wouldn't occur in bed -- as standing ...

on a matress and doing all that stuff isn’t practical — also, it’s not like the two guys would be engaging in anything sexual with each other.

So yeah, I wouldn’t call it “being gay” — or even bisexual — yet, it’s something that sounds more amusing in theory versus actually doing it.

Thus, even though I’d personally find any type of m/m/f combination awkward and wouldn’t parake, there’s a way to do it in a straight, heterosexual manner.

Hmm, I wonder if that guy has hyperprolactinemia. If so, that'd explain him having male breasts.

From what I recall, that one dude from E! News, Ken Baker, had it due to having a benign a pituitary gland tumor (i.e., prolactinoma); the biggest problems for him was lactating breasts, impotence, and infertility.

I'd say that's a problem!
