THE CURIOUS INDEX, 1/18/2012

PrintYES WE WILL POST ANYTHING CATLAB MAKES.
Let us just say that the unfair depiction of Weis as a scooter-bound MDMA addict in this video is unfair and inaccurate. Now that his hip surgery is complete, he will be mobile with the use of a cane for the fall football season, and still completely addicted to MDMA. (Florida's MDMA happens to be particularly good, thus all the sitting this season.) NONE OF THIS IS TRUE.
EARLY AND CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE OF FUTURE TRENDS. 2012's very premature do's and don't's are up at the mothership, and if you get nothing else from it you get the enduring image of Tyrann Mathieu with wombat perched on his head. The wombat is also holding a molotov cocktail, because wombats are intemperate, violent creatures, and even more so when you nail their feet to the top of a football helmet. Phil Knight is a GENIUS.
MILES ENDS HIS SILENCE IN A RAIN OF SUBCLAUSES AND DANGLING MODIFIERS. Coaching genius and timelord Les Miles denied all rumors of an LSU locker room argument prior to the national title game, instead insisting they took the field as they always did during the 2012 season: led by 45 unicorns, walking backwards, and farting glitter with each step.
FOR THOSE WHO REMEMBER HIS WORK AT WAKE FOREST. It will come as no surprise that Jim Caldwell was fired as coach of the Indianapolis Colts, or that the conversation to fire his dull ass took seven hours. Matt and ourselves took a turn at simulating just how horrendous this conversation was, but frankly even a fictionalized account of the tedium probably doesn't come close to the real thing.
In other NFL news: Jacksonville clearly wants energy at the special teams coaching position, guys!
YES, THINGS MAY CHANGE. There are two schools of thought in the SEC's ongoing rescheduling shuffles: one, that losing permanent cross-divisional rivals is imminent, and ours, which is that there's no way they're going to touch Auburn/Georgia and Alabama/Tennessee, and that everything else is probably fair game. Either way, Blutarsky and Hinnen are unhappy about it in two different objections to the ongoing mutation of the SEC.
GET SMARTER. And also watch the video of Larry Fitzgerald blowing the shit out of a Cover 2 with the slant option variation on Smash.

Yep, clams up during big games but seems still beat UK pretty regularly in recent times.
having it happen once is one thing, UK has gotten this type of treatment for the at least the 5 years. It usually plays the most favorable SEC schedule. Regardless of how that is an ESPN problem, it is something that other coaches have previously mentioned as well. CKS isn’t the first, nor will he be the only one.

Just go to wikipedia to find out!
Seriously, it’s to make Web pages feel more like applications without having to do a lot of page reloads. That is the short, simple answer.
The comment system here uses javascript, for example, instead of having you reload the page to check for new comments (usually; sometimes a bit of ranch gets into the browser and you have to reload anyway).
It's the code embedded in web pages
that makes drop-down boxes, puts the cursor in the correct field on a form, stuff like that. It can get very complex, too, but that’s a common basic use. If you have it turned off, or blocked for unknown web sites, those things won’t work.
Apparently Wikipedia is using Javascript to enforce its blackout.

But see, Not Sure never penetrated to the secret elite running the "Idiocracy" world
That would have been the sequel: there had to be someone, somewhere, making sure that society ran just well enough to not totally collapse. Who made the medical testing machine? The tatoo machine? The TV equipment and bigscreen TVs in the rehabilitation scene?
Somewhere, underground, was a small society of still-smart people using the idiots as entertainment and possibly slave labor. Not Sure would have been a threat to them, since as dumb as he was, he was still 100 times smarter than the rest.
Would have been an interesting movie.

Attractive women with very little hair is incredibly sexy to me. I recognize this is a minority taste, but it’s one which I hold strongly enough to be essentially a fetish; it’s almost impossible for me to be attracted to a woman with long hair.

The last math class I took was in senior year of high school. Also, I can barely add and subtract now. I’m sure it’s a coincidence.

was sitting in the hall playing board games with friends during my Physics final exam, because a 0 on the exam only dropped my grade down to a B.
We got some tears...nope, we gotta thumbs up!

oh we didn't even show up to school.
we had it like 2, 4, 6 class periods tested one day 1, 3, 5 the next. If took AP test, you didn’t take final. If you weren’t affected by zero, you just told teach and left for the rest of the day.

You're still not at that level.
The typical MAC school requires several million dollars from student fees to cross-subsidize the athletic department. Staying in I-A mitigates the loss.
To me, the biggest long-run threat to MAC athletics is that students at our institutions — state schools that don’t cater to the wealthiest folks in the world — will figure out that over the course of four years, their student loans are almost $4,000 bigger to support an athletic department that most of them don’t value enough to actually attend games. If I were a broke student these days, I’d be up in arms about it.

Probably.
But I don’t root for one of them.
My two “simple” fixes for small-ballers are (1) ending 1-AA wins counting toward bowl eligibility and (2) requiring teams to play at least five road games in order to be bowl eligible. Over time those two changes would do more to make us more competitive with the big conferences than anything else you could feasibly do.

Well, considering Georgia Southern's AD
has been one of the absolute worst at negotiating good deals for us on the money, I doubt it will hurt GSU all that much, to be honest. We somehow already operate with the smallest athletic budget in the SOCON (or at least it was two years ago, I believe), even though we’re one of the largest universities in the conference.

This isn’t really defensive-specific as much as it’s overall game strategy.
It seems that NFL ossification is much worse on the offensive side
Defensive is pretty straight-forward, college or NFL. I’d even say it’s more advanced on the NFL side to the point that Saban can’t work his defense voodoo on a college team, unless it’s stacked with talent like at Alabama.

Not really sold on the odd stack (3-3-5, or whatever)
It’s given up an average of 28 ppg in bowls since Casteel first implemented it back in the early 2000s. It’s works pretty well when your talent is much better than the other team’s, but a few adjustments (see: UGA, 2006 Sugar Bowl) and the other team is off an running. As badly as WVU beat Clemson, they still gave up 33 points (26 if you don’t want to count the garbage time TD).

Georgia Southern tried running it when Chris Hatcher was the head coach.
I’m not sure if the DC was just an idiot or what, but that defense was largely responsible for Hatch losing games and getting fired. Though his offense sucked in his last year, too. I think GSU gave up somewhere around 40 sacks that year.

Don't get me started about the 3-3-5.
I told them before the game if those bastards have to run the fumblerooski, come to the sidelines and party because they have given up their right of manhood.
UGA hired a LB coach from the Redskins
and he has done well coaching that position for the Dawgs … Grantham is a former NFL DC and D-Line coach and he has done well, too.
I’d be more worried about an NFLAIDS infected offensive coach than defensive coach.

OT: whoever was asking about Red Tails yesterday,
did you see this New York Times profile of George Lucas?
Still, [the director of the movie, Anthony Hemingway, who made his name on TV shows like "The Wire"] wasn’t sure Lucas was taking this film in the right direction. "I always felt it was much more of a mature film," Hemingway said. "I felt if you’re going after kids, you have to go through the back door." But Lucas persuaded him that if they made "Red Tails" as a kids’ picture, at some primal, emotional level, they would connect with the adult fanboys.
As the nicknames [of the two protagonists] suggest, Easy respects army brass and plays by the rules; Lightning bristles at authority and blows up German warships when he chooses. Hemingway told Parker and Oyelowo to imagine they were portraying the famous cleavage in the civil rights movement. "The theme that consistently came up," Oyelowo says, "was that I was Malcolm to his Martin."
After Hemingway finished his shoot, "Red Tails" entered a two-year postproduction phase. Hemingway returned to TV; Lucas worked on additional scenes and effects. The movie still felt a tad reverent, so in early 2010, Lucas hired Aaron McGruder, the feisty creator of the Boondocks comic strip, as well as a famous "Star Wars" fan [who later accused Lucas of racial weirdness in the prequels]. So the man who accused Lucas of racial klutziness found himself supplying dialogue for Lucas’s Malcolm-and-Martin passion project.

My basement family room looks like the White House Situation Room: four PCs, two of them constantly gaming. One is my old desktop that hardly gets used any more, and a HTPC that I put together from spare parts.

I wouldn't have touched one pre-OS X.
And I strongly dislike Apple’s iPhone-era reversion to closed systems. But for about 5 years there, Apple was the beacon of hope in a dark, pathetic computing world: UNIX with a professionally-designed user interface.
Nowadays, I’m just there out of some combination of inertia, the better-than-Linux factor, and the fact that the hardware holds enough value, even after four years of hard use, to cover the price premium.

For those who don't feel like looking it up:
it’s basically an online black market you need special software to access (it’s in the “Deep Net.”) And by every account I’ve read (as I have no desire to actually surf the Deep Net/get a visit from the Feds) it’s pretty tame compared to a lot of the stuff out there.
Seriously, If you feel like losing even more faith in humanity, try to find some accounts of the crazy bastards who’ve actually poked around on the Deep Net. It’s insane.

I had a big plan to trick my (former) fiance since she had already figured out where I was going to ask her.
Blindfolder her, drove her around a while to make her think we were going someone for a surprise trip that was far away, went back to campus to the spot I was going to ask her, was JUST about to take the blindfold off… then bells at Samford Hall rung and gave me away. So my tip/horror story is just take it in stride and enjoy the moment. It might not go exactly as you planned, but that will probably make it all the better. Relax, don’t stress, and congrats!

while not a proposal story
my first academic paper presentation was at a bi-annual department meeting/drunk fest at my university. i was nervous, but didn’t want to seem it, so i brought along a pint glass and a can of guinness, kind of as a prop. as i’m being announced as the next speaker, i open the can and it explodes, covering me and the two people sitting next to me in beer.
after sitting stunned for 30 seconds, i grab some paper towels, dry myself and my neighbors off, pour the rest of the beer into the glass, and walk up to the podium. imrpov that the beer had been my father’s suggestion and that it had worked out about as well as the rest of his advice (not true, btw, luv ya dad) and went on with the paper.
after that i was never nervous about a paper presentation again, as it could not possibly go worse.
so if you have some embarrassing thing you can fall back on as a “no matter what happens, it can’t go worse than that other thing” it might help your nerves.
best of luck!!!

Not really a horror story
I bought the ring from Blue Nile and it was supposed to arrive on the Friday I got back in town. I missed being at home to sign for the package, and so I have to explain to my (now) wife that I really really need to get to the FedEx office before they close, but can’t tell you why.
How I got through having her ride with me over there and not ask “What’s in the package?” I’ll never know.
Congrats!
My bride, in response to me on one knee, said: “What the fuck are you doing?”

Free advice:
Nothing. NOTHING. Nothing in a relationship (or life) will ever go 100% according to plan. So if the beginning of your engagement doesn’t go 100% according to plan, it’s not that big of a deal.
That said, I’m glad I will never have to propose again. I was as nervous as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs for mine. Also, 2.5 sheets to the wind.

Some day, when I’m awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight.
Yes you’re lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely, never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won’t you please arrange it ?
Cause I love you, just the way you look tonight.

I have about a 50, and a 5 travel. It could fit more
but I’ve got some quality Monte Cristos in little glass vial/cases in the top shelf that I haven’t smoked yet. That top one could hold another 20 if I removed those. So it’s probably more along the lines of a 75. The problem is that Cigar International is running a “Make Me an Offer” deal on certain cigars. So I started making low-ball offers on some cigars I was curious about (Monte Cristo Media Noche and Diesel Shorty) and then sent in another for Drew Estate’s Dirt Natural. And had all three offers accepted.

I've thought about doing that.
I just don’t smoke often enough to offset the speed at which I would acquire.
Plus CigarAfficianado just released the top 25 budget cigars a week ago. So I’ve got some singles to work through after visiting the local tobacconist.
/checks CigInt’l and all on the list are either ‘out of stock’ or ‘backordered’

Oh I checked on the 12th, the list was out on the 10th.
Didn’t take long.
Plus I like to go to the local guy to get most of my singles since he 1) keeps a lot in stock 2) knows his shit 3) his stuff is real [no counterfeit] 4) local business.

And I don't smoke them that much, either.
I probably won’t need to buy my favorites for a while. The only purchases I’ll make for the next year will probably be stuff like you just mentioned: singles I see on lists or just like the smell of when walking through the cigar shop.

I think I went through 42 last year.
So that’s one every 8.7 days, so I guess I could be a weekend smoker.
But I generally smoked 1-2 at tailgates/post games and 2-3 at outdoor parties (NYE, WLOCP Pre-Party, etc) so I may have only actually smoked once/twice a month in reality.
With it being so intermittent, I tend to shy off of buying large quantities as they may sit for a month or two. I’m not going to argue the person who tells me that like wine I should age certain ones for up to 3 years. I’m sure it helps, but I do not have the setup or the will power to do so at this time.

I'm somewhat the same way.
Though I smoked 83 cigars during my 7 months in Kosovo. I keep all my bands, so I know exactly how many I smoked over there. At home I’m more around the 1/week variety, though.

by Big Blue Barrister on Jan 18, 2012 2:24 PM EST up reply actions
Find a good humidifying source, first.
I use the small vents with sponges in them that you soak in propylene glycol, but others are acceptable. Have a new hydrometer ready, as well. You can get a good electronic one cheap using that same Make Me an Offer site on cigarsinternational.com. Once you have those ready, take everything out of your humidor and wipe the wood down with a damp cloth. Place the humidifying source and hydrometer inside. Give it about two weeks. Then put everything back in. You may want to wait a little while before you smoke them to let them get back in shape, but if they’re not bad right now, then you should probably be fine.

You fancy.
I was going to say buy 3 cans of the gel and a bottle of prop glycol.
Wipe with cloth, then refill and put in with two cans open. Watch it close (check every 3 days) and make sure the gel is full and/or not being dried out by wood/cigars starving for moisture. When you’ve gotten the interior settled (no adding hydro for a week or two) just toss the two that were in there and use the third solely. Check at least once a month and refill with glycol. A single can of gel should last you a year (drain and refill) before it starts to just not work as well. But the can is like $4, so it’s around a penny a day, just replace it.
But it also depends on the size and type of humidor you have. Obvs if you’ve got some kind of fancy glass, 100+ unit, yeah, get a nice fog system. If you are like me, you keep them in a cheap Yukon box in a drawer in the china hutch.
