Girl Has Seizure... Kicked Out Of Class

ASPEN, Colo. (CBS4) – A former student at Colorado Mountain College says she was forced to drop a class because she had a seizure.
Channing Seideman was in the middle of an emergency medical technician class when she had an epileptic seizure. She said faculty members asked her to drop the class, saying the episode was too distracting to other students and there could be more.

Seideman said it was a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act and she’s filed a complaint against the school.
She doesn’t want other people to experience the same thing.

Francona Wants Out... I'm Not Begging Him To Stay

Sun Times -- If the White Sox have designs on making Boston Red Sox manager Terry Francona their successor to Ozzie Guillen, one important door has been opened.

Francona has had enough of his eroding Boston experience, a ­major-league source said, and will ask the club not to exercise the option on his contract.

“He has had his fill of the whole thing,’’ the source told the Sun-Times.

Francona, who guided the Red Sox to two World Series championships, decided it was time to cut ties before the Red Sox’ September collapse came to its horrifying conclusion Wednesday night. His contract has options worth $4.25 million for 2012 and $4.5 for 2013, more than double what Guillen was paid this season.

Francona, 52, would have options, of course, including possibly the Cubs or Cardinals. And whether he is the top guy on Sox general manager Ken Williams’ and chairman Jerry Reinsdorf’s wish list is not known.

E! Runs Mean Girls 2 as A "Movie We Love"

So E! from time to time shows movies with the banner "Movies We Love" as a move to try and boost ratings. Novel idea, cause who doesnt love watching a 2 and a half hour movie stretched out over 5 hours converted to PG-13. From my memory I know they have shown Knocked Up and Titanic, two classics no doubt. I flip on the TV tonight and I saw the "Movies We Love" in the corner so I stop to see what movie it is and its Mean Girls 2. Who the fuck knew there was a Mean Girls 2? Seriously like what the hell is going on. First off its an outrage that Mean Girls didnt win an Oscar for Best Film, cinematic gold, one for the ages. All the over used movie clichés can be used. I mean Lohan in her prime. Rachael McAdams easily top 5 sexiest woman alive. Put Amanda Seyfried on the map and now shes in like every movie made. For god sakes Gretchen Weiners is a 10 plus her dad invented fucking Toaster Strudels. The fact that made a sequel is insulting. This has me so fired up. Obv MG2 is your typical straight to DVD piece of shit, with a no name cast and they throw one character from the original just so they can keep the name. Take a guess the one character they used... Tim Fuckin Meadows. Tim Meadows in the past 30 years has done 28 years of SNL, Mean Girls, and Mean Girls 2. Seriously E! clean your shit up. I dont wana see garbage movies and have you tell me its a classic. Mean Girls was so fetch.

NESN Showing Beauty and The Beast During Rain Delay...

Happy 70th Anniversary to Ted Williams .406 AVG

ESPN.com It took several conversations before the most cerebral hitter of his generation, Tony Gwynn, finally asked the most cerebral hitter of any generation, Ted Williams, about his famous 1941 season. "Ted looked at me and said, 'If I knew that hitting .400 would have been so damn important, I would have done it more often,''' Gwynn said. "I just laughed. But the more I thought about that, he probably could have hit .400 again if he had wanted.''
He probably could have, but he didn't, and no one else has hit .400 since Williams batted .406 in 1941. Since then, only four players have hit as high as .380 -- Williams .388 in 1957, Rod Carew .388 in 1977, George Brett .390 in 1980 and Gwynn .394 in 1994, a year in which he played 110 games when the season was canceled due to a player's strike. It seems highly unlikely, if not impossible, that anyone will hit .400 anytime soon for a variety of reasons, the first one being this: There is nobody in baseball history like Ted Williams.
"Best hitter I ever faced,'' Bob Feller said. "And I never saw anyone hit like he did in 1941.''
Williams had batted .344 in 1940 at age 21, but he suffered a wrist injury in spring training of 1941, missed some games and didn't really hit like Ted Williams in April. But in May, he went 44-for-101, with 22 walks and only three strikeouts. He got to .404 on May 25, never dropped below .393 the rest of the season and peaked at .436 on June 6. After July 25, his average never dropped below .400. When he got to the final day of the season, a doubleheader at Shibe Park in Philadelphia, Williams was hitting .3996, which rounded off to .400. Red Sox manager Joe Cronin gave Williams the option to play that day. Williams said if he couldn't hit .400 from the beginning to the end of a season, he didn't deserve it.
"I asked him about that final day,'' Gwynn said, "and he said, 'Hell yeah was I going to play.'''
Williams went 4-for-5 in the first game, the Red Sox overcame an 11-3 deficit to beat the A's, 12-11, and Williams raised his average to .404. He insisted on playing the second game, and he went 2-for-3 to finish the season at .406. In the doubleheader, with all the pressure of .400, he went 6-for-8. He was the first player to hit .400 since Bill Terry in 1930, and the first American Leaguer since Harry Heilmann in 1923. Williams hit 37 home runs that year, drove in 120 runs, drew 147 walks and struck out 27 times. His .553 on-base percentage was a major league record until Barry Bonds broke it in 2002 (.582). Williams' OPS was also an incredible 1.287.
"He told me that he didn't think it was that big a deal hitting .400,'' Gwynn said. "It had been done a few years earlier. He figured that someone else would do it. He wasn't that impressed by it.''
Seventy years later, it is more impressive since no one has really come close to hitting .400, and Williams hit .406 with great power and production. The wait has enhanced his legacy.

Get It Away From Me

WORCESTER — Frank and Louie is a cat who was born with two faces, so he has two names. Does that mean he has 18 lives?

It almost seems so now that he has earned a spot as the longest lived Janus cat in the new edition of the Guinness World Records (Guinness has dropped the word “book” from the name in this digital age).

The cat's owner is a Worcester woman named Marty, who asked that her last name not be used to shield her identity and her unusual pet from curiosity seekers. She has owned Frank and Louie since a local breeder brought him into Tufts Veterinary Clinic to be euthanized when he was a day old.

Marty was a veterinary nurse at Tufts at the time and offered to take him home.

The prognosis, however, was not good. Janus cats, named after the Roman god with two faces, are extremely rare and seldom live more than a few days after being born. Often they die within hours. But under Marty's dedicated care Frank and Louie flourished. He turned 12 years old on Sept. 8.

Frank and Louie has two mouths, two noses and two normal eyes with one larger non-functioning eye in the center.

“That was the first eye to open up when he was two days old so I had a little Cyclops for a while,” Marty said. That's not an endearing image, and, as often happens with animals and even people who are not exactly like everyone else, Frank and Louie often draws a shocked reaction from onlookers. But that first impression quickly fades.

“He's just so affectionate and sweet he usually wins people over,” Marty said.

The cat has two faces, but only one head and brain, so the faces react in unison and not as separate entities. Also, two faces doesn't mean two cans of cat food every morning. The cat's right side — or Frank's side — is connected to an esophagus while Louie's isn't, so Frank eats for two.

Apple To Announce New iPhone October 4

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Apple confirmed Tuesday that it will hold a press event on Oct. 4 at its Cupertino, Calif., headquarters. Expected to be the star attraction: The long-awaited iPhone 5.
It's been 15 months since Apple's iPhone 4 went on sale, making this lag between new models the longest since the iPhone debuted in 2007.
As always, the next-generation iPhone has been the subject of intense speculation. Almost daily, blogs and news agencies offer up new tidbits based on supposed leaks from hardware component makers or iPhone case designers to glean any information about what the next device could look like.

Cant Believe Its Come To This

Unbelievable sitting here on the eve of game number 1hundredandfucking62 Red Sox fans stil have a regular season MUST win and any discussions of playoffs has a big fat IF. On name value alone you have to feel good with Lester pitching tommorrow, but with the way this month has gone to quote Kevin Garnett "Anythings Possibleeeee." Lester has never lost to the Orioles, but then again you could argue a W for the O's tommorrow and it validates there season. Biggest game for the Orioles since Cal Ripken Jr. suited up. Even IF (theres that word again) the Sox do pull it off I'm almost positive the Yankees dont do us any favors and the Rays pull it out too. I would say im about 95% sure there will be a play in game Thursday. So is you work on Thursday, Id start planting the idea to your boss that your getting sick tommorrow. Maybe a little fake cough, sneezing all over your desk, hell  make some disturbing noises from the bathroom whatever you gotta do. That being said I think Lackey pitches the best game in a Sox uniform in by far his biggest oppurtunity. It wont be pretty but he will hold down the hatches enough to let the offense do its thing and send us limping into the playoffs.

PS: I think Green Day wrote this song years ahead of schedule and it was written for the 2011 Red Sox and their fans.

Hey Winklevoss Twins... How Do Those Nuts Taste?

This new ad for pistachios starring the poor Winklevoss Twins is so pathetic. Wah we came up with an idea but werent smart enough to do it ourselves. Poor us we only got 64 million and Zuckerberg tricked us. We are only so good at rowing because we jerk eachother off everyday.  Even the Dean at Harvard couldnt stand these guys.Love that in an average month for Zuckerberg they unveil a new Facebook layout. Meanwhile this nut commercial is a career building move for the Twinkletoe twins. Hopefully the people at Wonderful Pistachios didnt lie about the value of the company or the big bad twins will hit #1 on their speed dial and get their lawyers on the phone.

Self Checkouts Prove How Stupid People Are

MANCHESTER, Conn. (AP) -- When Keith Wearne goes grocery shopping, checking out with a cashier is worth the few extra moments, rather than risking that a self-serve machine might go awry and delay him even more.
Most shoppers side with Wearne, studies show. And with that in mind, some grocery store chains nationwide are bagging the do-it-yourself option, once considered the wave of the future, in the name of customer service.
"It's just more interactive," Wearne said during a recent shopping trip at Manchester's Big Y Foods. "You get someone who says hello; you get a person to talk to if there's a problem."
Big Y Foods, which has 61 locations in Connecticut and Massachusetts, recently became one of the latest to announce it was phasing out the self-serve lanes. Some other regional chains and major players, including some Albertsons locations, have also reduced their unstaffed lanes and added more clerks to traditional lanes.
Market studies cited by the Arlington, Va.-based Food Marketing Institute found only 16 percent of supermarket transactions in 2010 were done at self-checkout lanes in stores that provided the option. That's down from a high of 22 percent three years ago.
Overall, people reported being much more satisfied with their supermarket experience when they used traditional cashier-staffed lanes.
Supermarket chains started introducing self-serve lanes about 10 years ago, touting them as an easy way for shoppers to scan their own items' bar codes, pay, bag their bounty and head out on their way. Retailers also anticipated a labor savings, potentially reducing the number of cashier shifts as they encouraged shoppers to do it themselves.
The reality, though, was mixed. Some shoppers loved them and were quick converts, while other reactions ranged from disinterest to outright hatred -- much of it shared on blogs or in Facebook groups.
An internal study by Big Y found delays in its self-service lines caused by customer confusion over coupons, payments and other problems; intentional and accidental theft, including misidentifying produce and baked goods as less-expensive varieties; and other problems that helped guide its decision to bag the self-serve lanes.

Singing "Happy Birthday" in Public is Against The Law

Cracked - If you ever had a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's, you probably have endless fond memories: the cardboard pizza, the shitty, half-broken arcade games and soda served in the tiniest paper thimbles ever created. OK, maybe it kind of sucked in retrospect. But it could have been worse. For example, your parents could get a subpoena to appear in court for being part of a public performance of "Happy Birthday to You," which as it turns out is totally illegal.
It's copyrighted. Usually that would only affect people who are singing it while attempting to make a profit (the lady your dad hired to jump out of your birthday cake, for instance). However, the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) requested that the Girl Scouts pay royalties for "Happy Birthday to You," and other songs they'd been singing around the campfire without a single stripper, or paying customer in attendance.
Presumably thinking that this was a prank by the girls from the camp across the lake, the Girl Scouts consulted an attorney who found that the law applied to any "public performance." Going by the strict letter of the law, you have to pay anytime you sing the song "where a substantial number of persons outside of a normal circle of a family and its social acquaintances is gathered."
The first version of the popular birthday song, titled "Good Morning to All," was composed way back in 1868 by sisters Mildred and Patty Hill, before the Summy Company copyrighted it in 1935, together with the now-famous lyrics. Today, that copyright belongs to Time Warner, meaning that any restaurant or movie that wants to use the song where everyone can hear it must pay the company royalties.
You can still sing it legally in the privacy of your own home, and you will probably get away with singing it out in the open, provided that you're not on a reality TV show. Of course, if you're anything like most small business owners, you'll just pay up because you don't want to face Time Warner in court. Enough of them pay royalties that the song garners a cool $2 million dollars a year in royalties.
Or if you want to be extra safe, you can do what many restaurant chains do and just invent your own special version of the lyrics, assuming you don't mind looking and sounding like a stupid asshole.

Its So Beautiful

No Words Needed.

I Want Mark Buehrle on The Red Sox... And I Want It Immediately

CHICAGO -- Mark Buehrle makes his 31st and final start of the 2011 season on Tuesday night at U.S. Cellular Field, needing 1 2/3 innings to reach at least 200 innings pitched, at least 30 starts made and double-digit wins for the 11th straight season.
It's the longest such active streak in the Majors. But if that Buehrle streak continues on in 2012 and beyond, it might not be with the White Sox. Buehrle will be experiencing free agency for the first time, as his four-year, $56-million deal comes to a close, and isn't sure what to expect.

Man Steals Beer With Inhaler

CLOVER, SC - A California man is facing charges after police say he used an inhaler to steal beer from two men before using his head to break the windshield of a police cruiser.
According to a Clover Police report, officers were called to a Kangaroo Express early Tuesday morning to the report of an armed robbery. Officers spoke to two men who said they were walking along the sidewalk after buying beer and were approached by a man who pointed what appeared to be a silver pistol at them and demanded their beer. The report indicates that the armed man threatened to kill them if they didn't hand over the alcohol. The man, later identified as 23-year-old Ashton Graham of California, then ran away from the scene with a case of Keystone Ice and a case of Budweiser beer. Officers called the York County Sheriff's Office to ask for assistance from the department's K-9 unit to track Graham. Investigators followed a trail of beer cans and empty cartons as the K-9 unit tracked Graham. 911 dispatchers notified officers that employees from a nearby business had called and said that a male covered in blood was on their property and "acting very strange." Employees told officers that the man was "very intoxicated and told them that he had been assaulted by three black males," the Clover Police report states. When employees told Graham they were calling police, he reportedly "got up off the sidewalk, fell down and dropped a Budweiser beer out of his pocket and got back up." That's when ran out into the field behind the company, employees told police. K-9 units were able to track Graham to the woods behind the building and he was placed into custody. Police say when he was being led to the patrol car, he became extremely agitated and very combative with officers. According to the York County Sheriff's report, Graham stared at deputies and screamed "What the [expletive] are you looking at?" Graham reportedly continued to swear at the deputies as they patted him down to check for weapons. A deputy located what appeared to be a cap to an asthma inhaler in Graham's pocket. When the deputy asked Graham if he had an inhaler and he replied, "Yes, I have fucking asthma."
Graham then allegedly reared his head backwards and slammed it into the patrol car's back windshield, shattering the window.

Science Proves Kids Like Sugar... Really?

NPR - Ask a child if they like sweets and the answer is almost universally a resounding "Yes!" It's no surprise to most parents that kids love candy, cookies, sweetened drinks, and some kids have even been known to add sugar to a bowl of Frosted Flakes. But don't blame the kids, say researchers: It's biology.

Scientific evidence shows that children not only have a stronger preference for sugar than adults – but that sweet-tooth is hardwired from Day One.

"We know that the newborn can detect sweet and will actually prefer sweeter solutions to less sweet ones. The basic biology of the child is that they don't have to learn to like sweet or salt. It's there from before birth," explains Julie Mennella of the Monell Chemical Senses Center.

Unlike adults, who often find overly sugary things unpleasant, Mennella says kids are actually living in different sensory worlds than adults when it comes to basic tastes.

"They prefer much more intense sweetness and saltiness than the adult, and it doesn't decrease until late adolescence. And we have some evidence they may be more sensitive to bitter taste," Mennella says.

A reason for this may be that a preference for sweet, caloric substances during rapid growth may have given children as an evolutionary advantage when calories were scarce. That notion is supported by the fact that sugar doesn't just taste good to children -– it actually makes them feel good, too.

Man Dies In A Van Down By The River

 

STURTEVANT - A person has been pronounced dead after they were discovered outside a van that was found partially in water in Sturtevant on Monday morning.

A Racine County Sheriff's dispatcher told Newsradio 620 WTMJ that the body and vehicle were found just off a frontage road near the corner of Highway C and Highway 20 in Sturtevant at about 6:20 a.m. Monday morning.

TODAY'S TMJ4's Diane Pathieu reports that the driver drove from Dousman to Racine County. The man was going down the frontage road went through a road closed sign and into a ditch full of water in a large construction area. According to Pathieu, his van was then submerged, then he got out of the van, had a heart attack and died. He reportedly was in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. Deputies don't know how long the man may have been in the flooded area, but the road was clearly marked and blocked with barricades.

ICEBERG... Oh Its Just The Sox

Ok Ive remained pretty calm this September as the Red Sox decided to sail through the last few weeks and get ready for October. While the members of the media and other fans put on their life belts and head for the lifeboats, I ordered another drink and put on my freshest outfit. Well my feet are getting wet and all the boats are almost dropped and out of here. The Sox are sinking and sinking fast. I Think the Sox could use Kate Winslet at this point (You see that swing with the axe to save Jack?) It was always part of the misery of "The Curse" that Fenway opened when the Titanic sank, well in the spirit of the Sox failures E! is taunting us by running Titanic 24/7. The comparisons are endless. The Sox are being chased by the Rays of course, a sea animal. The lights are about to go out and all the other teams and their fans will row their life boats into the playoffs and all that will be left of Red Sox Nation will be thousands of fans frozen and shocked at the devestation that just happened.

Go Crazy Buffalo

What do they put in the water up in Buffalo? I'm going to temporarily ignore the game and deal with a pressing issue. What is with Bills fans? I threw up every time they showed the crowd. I'm worried. Is there some sort of nuclear waste dump infecting people? Everyone looked like they went down Niagra Falls in a barrel and hit every rock on the way down. Can we trade Buffalo to Canada for some hockey pucks? So drink some Labatt Blue enjoy the win and for one night you can feel like a winning, sexy, New Englander.
P.S. I googled Buffalo Bills fan and there were pretty much no results.

The Royal Wedding Update

With the Royal Wedding just days away I figured I should give you a quick update. Can you believe that Elton John got an invite but former Prime Minister Tony Blair did not? SHOCKING! Oh and another thing NOBODY FUCKING CARES. Seriously I am so sick of everywhere I go hearing about Prince William this and Kate Middleton that. I mean Id definitely smash Middleton but damn enoughs enough. Do people realize that they are for show and have no power? I cant wait for this to all be over. I'll start paying attention when the sex tape emerges.

History Will Be Made Ads Are GOLD

This is no exageration so believe me when I say... Since the NHL Playoffs have started the "History Will Be Made" ads running on NBC and Versus have literally got me hot and bothered. I cant get enough of them. My heart skips a beat when they come on. I go online and look them up. I have the music on my iPhone and listen to the song before bed, in the shower, and while working out. Okay I haven't been working out but you get the point. I guess I'm a sucker for piano over highlight montages. (Same thing used to happen with the NBA "Where Amazing Happens" ads) But today at work I see they just made one for the Bruins 2OT win over Montreal the other night. I couldnt play it fast enough. After I watched I felt like I was back in middle school when you pitch a tent and hope the teacher doesnt call you to the board. This is why the NHL Playoffs are so amazing they pitch tents in the pants of heterosexual men like myself.

Head Of Anti-Poverty Agency Makes 6 Figures Working 15 Hour Weeks

Eagle Tribune - LAWRENCE — The AWOL boss for the city's leading anti-poverty agency walked out the door with a $9,829.91 check after he quit Wednesday.

Former Greater Lawrence Community Action Council Executive Director Philip F. Laverriere Sr. received the money for his last days worked and unused vacation time. Thomas Schiavone, president of the agency's board of directors, said Laverriere is not eligible for retiree health benefits because he resigned.

Laverriere, 85, left the agency four days after The Eagle-Tribune revealed he spent as few as 15 hours in the office a week, and earned as much as $144,000 a year. The rest of the work day, Laverriere was found in the Elks Clubs playing card games and video poker and indulging his taste for cigars.

Its $30 million budget is funded almost entirely through state and federal money. In the interim, Assistant Executive Director Charles LoPiano will oversee the agency.

People ask me all the time how I can be a Republican or have conservative views on politics. After reading this story its pretty clear. Liberals take your money and give it to people that dont work. I love when these dirt bags that are STEALING money out of every working persons pocket get exposed for the criminals that they are. This is your money people. Yet people continue to elect people that just want to collect more tax money to fund these bogus programs. Phillip Laverriere is just this weeks scum bag but there are hundreds of people with phony titles doing nothing collecting big salaries. To put it simple terms, this guy is taking your tax money and working for a wage of about $180/hr. But you stick to that argument that Republicans are bad because George W. was a Republican.

Okay Schlereth

Mark Schlereth has always sort of pissed me off. He's all high and mighty and doesnt like his viewers to forget that football is a tough game and that he has had 75 surgeries on 47 different body parts and he still cant walk right.Ya he has a Super Bowl ring, a job on ESPN, been on soap operas, & a son in the majors. None of these have impressed me. I was on twitter this morning and stumbled across Alexandria Schlereth. Thats right Mark Schlereths smoking hot daughter. Mark maybe I was wrong about you, maybe we can be friends. I would love to hear about the time you and the other O lineman maxed out Elway's credit card at a buffet. Oh hey Alexandria, How You doin?

Everyone Wants To Be Irish

Let me start off by wishing a Happy St. Patricks Day to everyone out there whether your Irish or not. I guess I am a walking Irish stereotype walking around 365 days a year so St. Patricks Day is generally seen as the day that everyone who wants to be Irish can pretend. Whats not to love about the Irish? They are happy, friendly, gentle people. We love to have a good time and sometimes that means knockin back a few pints, what of it. My name is Shamus, I have red hair, freckles, green eyes, I'm a wise ass, love to drink, and love potatoes. I know I live a charmed life and I feel bad for those that are less fortunate. So for all of you out there that want to be Irish, throw on some green raise your glass and sing Tura Lura until you slur the words. Erin Go Bragh & Sláinte.

Nate Dogg Tribute

Yesterday was a very sad day in the world of hip hop. Nate Dogg one of the class acts passed away at the very young age of 41 years old due to complications from previous strokes. Now I am not going to sit here and pretend that I was a big time old school hip hop fan, but I always liked Nate Dogg. He was a legend. Its always sad to see a legend pass on but he left the world with some great music.

#1 "Regulate" Warren G Feat. Nate Dogg

Red Hair Don't Care

Let me tell you guys about an organization that is very important to me and is a big part of who I am today. I am talking about the NAARHP. The National Association for the Advancement of Red Headed People. Ok so I made up the organization but just like how other groups or people look out for each other the same applies for red heads. Only about 1-2% of the people in the world have red hair, meaning that 98-99% of the world is jealous and should be bowing down to the all mighty red heads.

Sometimes me and my redhead pals meet up on redhead-world.net. Its the facebook equivalent for red heads. We can share pictures, stories, and jokes. We also keep up with the latest red head news and take place in red head polls and surveys. I don't know what I would do with out redhead-world!

Lets address some common stereotypes. Lets get the elephant in the room out of the way. Yes red heads have tons and tons of sex and yes its fucking awesome. Next! I am reading that red heads have short tempers and can be feisty but thats NOT FUCKING TRUE. I will fight anyone that tries to say otherwise. Now that we have eliminated that horse shit stereotype of short tempers we can move on. People hate on red heads because they are jealous of our freckles, our wicked sweet SPF 50 sun block, and the fact the red hair looks fucking awesome. Yes we do have souls and if you don't believe me check out my ginga Coppercab.

A final note:  ginger is the N-word for red heads we can say it to each other but if anyone else says it all hell will break loose.

Heat Lose Again, Then Cry About It

Sports Grid  - Following their 87-86 loss to the Chicago Bulls, the Miami Heat are upset. So upset, in fact, that a few of them are crying in the locker room.
According to Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, via ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, “some Heat players are crying in the locker room at the moment.” That tidbit was also confirmed by South Florida Sun-Sentinel beat writer Ira Winderman, who tweeted that Spoelstra said, “There are a couple of guys crying there in the locker room.”

The Miami Heat are going through the roughest patch they have dealt with all season. All of the points people made before the season are playing out and proving to be true. Chris Bosh is soft. LeBron will dominate the game but will come up real small in the clutch. Dwayne Wade, the only clutch player on the team wont demand the ball because he doesnt want to hurt his super best friend LeBrons feelings. The fact that Erik Spoelstra is still  the head coach surprises many but if this losing streak continues he might be gone before the Heat have a chance to choke in the playoffs. 


As bad as its been on the court for Spoelstra he has been just as bad at the podium. Stating that the Heat could either improve or "collapse" going forward. Collapse isnt the best word a coach should use when talking about his team. Then admitting that his players were crying in the locker room is just to much. I dont know if they really were or this is his crazy way of showing that they care. The Heat can still turn it on and do damage but only if Wade carries them. I predict that they continue to demand attention and fall on their faces and cry while the elite teams take their lunch money and everyone laughs.
 

Charlie Sheen: Cause No One Else Is Talking About His Winning Ways

In the past 7 days in the United States its safe to say the most uttered name by a landslide would be Charlie Sheen. Everybody loves the crash in NASCAR, seeing people fail, or watching people at the top hit rock bottom. Everyone is ready to lump Charlie Sheen into those categories but it couldn't be further from the truth.

People bust their ass at a job they probably hate,  not making enough money, and not having the car or house that they dream about. The whole point of making a living is to provide you and your family with the things you need and want. Everybody has their fantasy lives of what they would do if they won the lottery or made it big. Well newsflash people. Charlie Sheen is fucking rich. I know, its crazy. The man has enough money to do whatever the fuck he wants to and I commend him for doing that. There are plenty of people out there that just stick to the script of what society tells them to do. In a politically correct society that tells everyone that they are equal Chuck stands up and says screw that why should I pretend I'm not special when I am. Thats a winners attitude.

For all of you out there that say that he is crazy or spiraling out of control or he is on something are just trying to put him down to make you feel better. There are plenty of people that think what he says is funny, but I actually think that everything that he says is true and right. The man is being a total wise ass and people dont get that. He is trying to be funny and he wants everyone to talk about him because everyone is coming out a WINNER accept for CBS who is trying to paint him as the bad guy.

He isnt hurting anyone, he's passing drug tests, he wants to go back to work but he's the bad guy junkie loser. This I will never understand. But you can count on these 3 things everyday... The sun will rise in the east, it will set in the west, and Charlie Sheen will be WINNING.

*Since Charlie is giving interviews with everyone that will listen to him, do you think he will do an interview with me?

How Embarrassing Is Falling Down?

For those of you that do not know me, when I'm not writing the best blog posts on the entire fucking internet I am out there making the world a better place. One delivered pizza at a time. Yes I deliver pizza and I am not ashamed. So its Friday night and its pretty busy nothing crazy, but I have to go at a pretty fast pace to keep up and make sure everything gets where it needs to go on time. I show up at this house and can not pull in the drive way because there is trash barrels knocked over by the rainy, windy, sleety, shitty weather. (the weather sucked tonight). I park on the street and walk up the steep drive way and across the front yard (dodging puddles, ice & slush) to the door. I hand over the food take the cash and make my way back to the car. I am organizing the cash, putting in order, and making sure its all facing the same way. Without looking in front of me I step on a sheet of ice and my feet fly up in the air, I fall on my back,and slide down the ice. The ice turns to slush and puddles and mud as I tumble down the front yard. I rolled about 30 feet until I reached the street. I was soaked and my hands were scraped from trying to catch myself. Luckily there was no one around to see this because  it would've been the most embarrassing thing to happen to me in a very long time.

Legit falling down is probably one of the most embarrassing things that you can do. I laugh when I see people fall down. I even say "Thats embarrassing" just to put salt in the wounds. I am very lucky that no one saw me fall or my reputation as a cool kid/bad ass would be ruined.

Bieber to the Mavericks?

Star Telegram - DALLAS — The NBA trade deadline was at 2 p.m. Thursday, and a lot of teams were probably looking to make a deal to improve their team.

The Dallas Mavericks?

They were looking to sign teenage idol Justin Bieber?

"If I signed Dennis Rodman, I'm not above signing Justin Bieber -- if he's old enough to play," owner Mark Cuban said Wednesday night. "I don't know if he's eligible.

"Could you check on that for me, because I'll sign him. We can ask for an exception for Bieber Fever. Get the Bieber Fever NBA exception."

Bieber, who turns 17 on Tuesday, was voted the Most Valuable Player of the NBA Celebrity All-Star game last Friday in Los Angeles. He scored eight points and distributed four assists, but his East team lost to the West, 54-45.

"That guy can play," Cuban said. "If we're down a man, he's the one I'll sign.

I am so torn on this story. At first glance I am thinking typical Mavs, have a good thing going, the team is playing good and they are looking to screw it up by adding the Bieber? For as long as I can remember the Mavs have been the NBA equivalent to the Colts (good regular season, choke in playoffs) until even they won. So now any team that is good all year and blows it is pulling a Maverick. I feel bad because I love Mark Cuban, he's exactly the type of owner I'd be, running on the floor, being a wise ass, paying fines like its nothing. Which makes me think, "should he sign Bieber?" The answer is yes. I mean MVP of the Celeb All Star is the same thing as a Naismith Trophy. Hey Mark Cuban! I got a fever and the only prescription is more Bieber!!!

P.S. I was under the influence of Bieber on youtube when I wrote this post.

Breastmilk Ice Cream in The UK

Fox News - Breast milk ice cream was being scooped up by British customers Thursday after a London parlor used milk donated by a UK mom to make the "totally natural" treat.

Victoria Hiley, 35, a mother of one from Leeds in northern England, has already donated a liter of her breast milk to Icecreamists parlor for the dish it calls Baby Gaga, UK website Parentdish reported

"What's the harm in using my assets for a bit of extra cash?" said Hiley, who responded to an advert for milk suppliers on another parenting website, Mumsnet. "What could be more natural than fresh, free-range mother's milk in an ice cream?"

The new parlor, based in London's trendy Covent Garden district, pays £15 ($24) for every 10 ounces of milk and has already had 15 mothers become donors. Each lactating woman undergoes the same health checks used by the UK's National Health Service to screen blood donors.

Matt O'Connor, 44, who runs Icecreamists, makes the dish by blending the breast milk with Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest.

"No-one's done anything interesting with ice cream in the last hundred years," he said. "Some people will hear about it and go, 'yuck,' but actually it's pure, organic, free-range and totally natural."

There is no way that Icecreamists is selling a ton of breast milk ice cream. There is just no way. Sure people are curious, hell I'd try a free sample, but this cant be popular. Can it? If people were that interested in breast milk they would sell it at the grocery store. Mix it right in there in between the 2% and skim would be the DD milk. Why stop at ice cream? Make breast cheese, and tit yogurt. As if men didnt think about boobs enough Icecreamists goes and puts in my head that all dairy products should come from boobies. Nice try Matt O'Connor but I think I'll just stick to my cookies and cream.

Need For Sheed 2?

The Unemployed are too Lazy to File for Unemployment

Yahoo Finance - WASHINGTON (AP) -- Fewer Americans requested unemployment benefits last week, pushing the average number of applications over the past four weeks to the lowest level in more than two and a half years.

Applications for unemployment benefits dropped by 22,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 391,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. It was the third decline in the past four weeks.

The four-week average for applications, a less volatile figure, fell to 402,000. That's the lowest number since late July 2008 and a hopeful sign that the job market is slowly improving.

The downward trend in applications indicates that layoffs are dropping steadily. But economists are still unsure when employers will begin hiring enough to make a dent in the 9 percent unemployment rate.

So unemployment benefit requests have reached the lowest level in two and a half years. This is great news if it means that America is getting off its collective ass, taking a shower, and getting a job. I doubt it though. I'm curious if people receiving tax refunds over the past few weeks has anything to do with the dip in benefit requests. The unemployment rates are still embarrassing but lets hope that people are itching to get back to work. So dust off those suits and get out there and make something of yourself.

BREAKING NEWS IN RUSSIA: Beer is Now Considered Alcohol

The Telegraph - The beverage is technically classified as a foodstuff for now, an anomaly that has allowed producers to avoid a sweeping new crackdown on alcohol advertising and night-time sales.

But a new Kremlin-backed bill that passed its first reading in the lower house of the Russian parliament on Tuesday will abolish beer's special status, dragging Russian alcohol regulation into the 21st century.

"Normalising the beer production market and classifying it as alcohol is totally the right thing to do and will boost the health of our population,"Yevgeny Byrun the ministry of health's chief specialist on alcohol and drug abuse, said.

"We have been talking about and have wanted such a measure for ages. I take my hat off to the parliament."

The new law would restrict beer sales at night, ban its sale in or close to many public places such as schools, and limit cans and bottles to a maximum size of 0.33 litres.

I always knew that the Russians were known for being heavy drinkers but this is a little ridiculous. Classifying beer as a foodstuff seems like its implying that its a vital and essential part of a persons diet. I also find it amusing that all these health specialist and government officials believe by that classifying it as alcohol, people are going to look at it differently and suddenly make better health choices. I'm going to guess that at least half of the people in Russia who drink beer know that there is alcohol in it. Lets say that Charlie Sheen knocks up Lindsay Lohan and then she gives birth to a country and the god mother is Amy Winehouse,  the country would be named Russia. Beer is like the Russians Red Bull, they literally look at it as a soft drink in comparison to the amount of Vodka that is consumed. But the parliament is cracking down, so look for Egypt type protests across Russia coming soon.

Пейте России. (Drink Up Russia)

Boston Red Stalkers

Theo - "I know what you did last summer!"

ESPN Boston  -FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Boston Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein said he employed "a bad figure of speech" when he said the Red Sox checked out Carl Crawford "as if we were privately investigating him" before signing the free-agent outfielder last December.
Crawford said Tuesday that he was "creeped out a little bit" when Epstein told him that the club had monitored him, not only on the field, but off the field, in the months before signing him.
"I thought that was a little weird," Crawford said Tuesday. "I guess that's what they have to do when they're making that kind of investment."
Crawford signed a seven-year, $142 million contract with the Red Sox last December, the largest contract in club history in terms of average annual value.
"Our scouts just did a real thorough job on background, that's all," Epstein wrote in an e-mail after being apprised of Crawford's comments. "[We] felt like we got to know him real well, that's all. I told him we got to know him real well and we really respected the decisions he made, even away from the park. 

Usually the only things you hear out of spring training are "best shape of his life" type stories. A whole lot of nothing is reported by the dozens of reporters that are down there. Most springs I would rather hear which reporter got the drunkest, who caught the biggest fish, or who was the best golfer. But this Carl Crawford story is pretty funny. I am not surprised at all that they would "scout" a player on and off the field, its just funny that they admit it. I guarantee all teams do this, and if they don't they probably suck and have shit head players. Crawford has every right to be "creeped out" most people would. But if you are the Red Sox you don't want to get burned by a big contract cause the guy has bad character. I would love to see an interview or story on the guy that followed Carl around for three months. Boston is known for three things we do better than anyone else and that's beans, pro sports, and spying. Someone play Tessie please.

Snakes on a Train?

Boston Herald - BOSTON - It is a hefty cleaning bill for a Massachusetts woman whose 3-foot long boa constrictor slithered away from her on a Red Line subway car in Boston and hid in the car for nearly a month.
Transit officials want 30-year-old Melissa Moorhouse of Allston to pay $650 to cover the costs of disinfecting and sanitizing the train to protect passengers from germs such as salmonella that may have been left by the Penelope the snake.
Penelope’s owner had traveled around with the Boa around her neck and lost it between the Broadway and Andrew stations on Jan. 6. It was spotted on the train earlier this month by a commuter.

I'm sick and tired of these mother fucking snakes... on this mother fucking train?

Thanks to Nick for the tip.

Am I Crazy?

So Just Go With It hit theaters around the country a few weeks ago, looks funny, heard good things, and will probably check it out soon. That is not the purpose of this post. The movie features two of the most attractive women in the world, Jennifer Aniston & Brooklyn Decker. That brought me into my fantasy world where I am sitting at a bar and both of these women are tugging my shirt and begging me to take them home to my mansion. (The possibility of a three way is thrown out, although it is a fantasy world you got to have some reality.) Anyways the choice is clear that I am taking home Jennifer. Am I the only one who would do this? Brooklyn Decker is a SUPER  MODEL on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, Victoria Secret model, arguably the hottest woman in the world. Yet, I still take Jen. Maybe its the fact that I was in love with Rachael from Friends, maybe I want to follow in my idol's (John Mayer) footsteps, or maybe its the fact that I know she is going to be hot all the way until shes pushing 80. I even think that Brad Pitt is crazy for leaving Jennifer for Angelina (especially since he inherited about 90 kids). I know there will be people that agree with me but I have a feeling I am in the minority on this one.

Does Carmelo on the Knicks Scare You?

After the Carmelo Anthony to the Knicks deal went down the thoughts in my head shift to how does this effect the Celtics place in the Eastern Conference. I'm seeing a lot of "rivalry renewed" crap that now that the Knicks have Carmelo they should be considered equal with Boston. I have actually been a Carmelo fan dating back to his Syracuse days and he is without a doubt an elite player in the NBA. The more I sit here and think about it though I am still not ready to declare a state of emergency and do not believe that the Knicks are a threat, yet. This stuff doesn't phase the Celtics. They love playing the so called "super teams" and will show up to play and politely (or not so politely in KG's case) knock them off of the high horse that they rode in on. Now although KG said "Anything's possible" he also said "You got to beat somebody before it can be a rivalry."

Greatest United States Presidents EVER!!!

It really bothers me that a day like Presidents Day is associated with big sales at car dealerships or electronic stores and not spent focusing on some of the great men who have served at the most powerful position in the world. I know that there are decent Americans out there who respect the office and this country, and if you take the time to read this I'm probably preaching to the choir. For those who dont care about politics or say they dont matter please just take a look at these men that I want to give praise to and try to envision what this country or even world for that matter would be like without them.

1. Ronald Reagan - No other President in US history had as much success as far as foreign and domestic policies were concerned. He was able to revive a suffering economy by cutting taxes, reducing government spending, & reducing government regulation. Reagan stood toe to toe with the Soviet Union and put an end to the Cold War. There were certain characteristics about Reagan that made him so succesful despite him not being viewed as the smartest President ever. He was a visionary that knew what he wanted to do and how he needed to go about doing it. He had a character, he didn't spend time worrying about being popular he was honest and did what was right for the country.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."

Ronald Reagan

2. Franklin Delano Roosevelt - FDR was elected to four terms as President during some of the darkest times in US history. He was President during the Great Depression, and arguably single handedly got the US out of it with its big time government spending and programs like "The New Deal". FDR also led the US through WWII. FDR was viewed as inspiration to a nation that needed someone to look to during such terrible times.

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."

Franklin Delano Roosevelt

3. Abraham Lincoln - On many lists Honest Abe is number one and is very deserving. The first Republican President ever elected. (Probably should have left that out. People will probably hate him now) He put a stop to the Civil War and United the Nation again. In the process he freed millions of slaves upon ending slavery. He had great respect and dedication to the office he held and was available to talk to and even answered questions. Lincolns values and beliefs remain to this day, and his name has been synonmous with "freedom & union."

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

Abraham Lincoln
