PrintWAR DAMN POWER TOWEL. You shouldn't be allowed to put that much raw animal attraction in one photo, and yet:
(Via @petegaines ) If Charles Barkley joins Ron P and Sly Croom on the staff of the Jags, we will move to Jacksonville to be part of this magical assembly of lumpy mystical coaching stones. If you put them all in the same place, a Pokemon that looks like a 7-5 bowl team appears and fumbles a turkey into your lap!
MORE MEETINGS TO EVENTUALLY CONFIRM THE PLUS ONE WE ALL KNOW IS INEVITABLE BUT MUST NOT CALL A PLAYOFF NOPE. Old guys confer, confirm plus on en route basically, old writers grumble how this whorehouse will never be the same, blah blah, this sweatshop was so much more authentic when they didn't have air conditioning. This reminds us of when people said Southern writers lost their imagination when we got air conditioning, because yeah, it was so much better back when there were like 8 bowl games and coaches could give their kids rhabdo without fear of someone saying shit about it. OMG THE WORLD'S ENDING! It always is for some people.
IN SLIGHTLY RELEVANT NEWS. Knock us down with a feather.
FULMER CUPDATE INCOMING. We'll have a Big Board up today, but let us say that after pushing a cop in the name of protecting his lady, James Wilder now may have the choice of Tallahassee ladies for the next five years regardless of on-field production.
JUST WATCH THIS BEFORE YOU WORKOUT. You won't have Giavanni Ruffin's rippedness, or talent, or My Morning Jacket warming up in rehearsals behind you, and you probably won't be jumping a fence back and forth like it's a foot-high plyo box, but it's still very motivational (until they mention that stupid shit about sleeping.) (Because people who don't sleep are actually functioning mental cripples.) (Viva sleep.) Via reddit/cfb.
OL STANFORD JIMMY'S A MAN OF THE PEOPLE. Hoooweee, ain't he, with his crushin' handshake and all. The Stanford Harbaugh legacy remains, if this video is any evidence of the"only talk shit on the sidelines, but do it HARD, son."
MAN, WE DON'T EVEN KNOW IF THIS IS SCIENTIFICALLY POSSIBLE. There might be real points here, but any analysis of Michigan's offense in the Rodriguez era seems strained by the crushing weight of Greg Robinson's astonishing failure to do anything on defense. We mean anything. Anything at all in any sense of the word. They couldn't even die right. It was bad. You might remember it. You might not if you just drank yourself blind off rubbing alcohol. We're kind of just stroking out thinking about how much money Greg Robinson stole in the 2000s. Thus. The. Short. Sentences. Stopping.
FOOOOOOOOOD. ATVS has a simple and awesome gumbo that you can make on Saturday because you have nothing else to do. :(
MIKHAIL PROKHOROV ON THE MICROPHONE, ETC. Please, you cannot move another inch without watching Mikhail Prokhorov take the mic. The Hater's Guide to the Academy Awards contains several Kenneth Branagh jokes we contributed since we may be one of the five people on the planet who can't fucking stand Kenneth Branagh. (Everyone's got job skills.) People living alone are like parents with toddlers, but without the toddlers, and the NYT continues to do an amazing job chronicling the pampered, lonely, and hopelessly narcissistic asshole segment of the human race. Porto bein' bitches. Monday Night Football really should have featured more Cossell-as-tornado scenes. Daytona was so much realer back when driving in the ocean was a live possibility. If you're going to apologize, it is probably important to remind everyone that you're a fantastic humanitarian, too. (Not really at all.)

It didn't help that they decided to expand the plan and they keep changing things
it went from 50 million for 50k square feet to 82 million for 75k square feet
Getting to 50 million from 33 or 45 million (depending on the math cited by the AJC) is a hell of a lot easier than getting to 82 million
It might also have something to do with the city of South Bend being unable to pay off the mortgage on the building, and--

although speaking of weird casts, I can’t say I have any interest in trying out a 4 hour Hamlet with Jack Lemmon and Robin Williams in it.

Lethal Weapon movies are great
but the buddy-comedy interaction suffered greatly without Shane Black to write the script. Still sad that “Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang” didn’t get as much recognition. After seeing that, I’m looking forward to seeing what Shane Black will do with Robert Downey, Jr since he’s writing and directing Iron Man 3.

Everyone bags on it for Keanu-content, but he’s actually perfect for that role of stupid douche who’s a douche for the sake of being douche, but isn’t even that good at it. And Michael Keaton cancels out any flaws in that role.

So I recently saw a business card from a fellow who had to be the world's biggest douche
It had a URL for his personal website, and on that website, he had a “visual resume”. One of the components of this visual resume was a map of the world. For every language this guy could speak fluently, he colored in the countries on the map who had that language as an official language. A very large portion of the map was colored in.
Upon closer inspection, however, it became apparent that these were all countries that either primarily spoke English, or had multiple official languages, among which English was one.
This guy will probably get a job before I do. I hate the universe.

For us, El Guapo is a big, dangerous man who wants to kill us.

Later the author bemoans the fact that a +1 is all about the money. As if all the bowls are just put on by altruistic philanthropists who’s magnanimity is manifested as bowl-hosting and goodie bags.

Well yeah, but those 2 ingredients kind of crystalize it
Creole is city cooking, which back in the day meant you could get finer, fresher ingredients (like butter) more easily. Whereas in the country, where the true Cajuns were, they didn’t have those things, so oil would get substituted.
Obviously there’s way more to it than that, but that’s a really good rule of thumb.

I think that's fair for the lower-conference champions and for the last few at-larges
But I’m not sure it’s fair to the 1-seeds, who deserve to be protected as a reward for their regular season play.

Why? Regular season championships aren't valued by the conferences.

1-seeds aren't always regular season champions
See Duke last year.
But I actually agree with the idea of assigning autobids to tournament winners. Otherwise, the conference tournaments are rendered completely meaningless. Plus, it maintains that mystique that every team in the country (outside of the Ivy League) controls their own destiny at the end of the regular season.
by tarspaceheel on Feb 23, 2012 11:38 AM EST up reply actions
I prefer the Ivy League's system
And remember, it was the B1G’s and Pac-12’s until not so long ago. I’d rather not have a postseason conference tournament than have the regular season mean nothing but seeding.
I see tarspaceheel, so I suspect you have biases toward Greensboro the way I have flashbacks to watching my team get hammered at Kemper.
But consider for a minute a school which wins the America East by 3 games – and doesn’t get to go to the dance because of one bad game.
by Albino Tornado on Feb 23, 2012 11:42 AM EST up reply actions
Before I make the following argument,
let me go ahead and say that I’m not sure I buy it myself. Personally, I’d be fine with ditching conference tournaments in favor of regular season autobids. Or (if not for the problem of perverse incentives) awarding an autobid to the regular season champ AND the tourney champ. But that said:
For teams from 1-bid leagues, what’s the real difference between losing in the conference tournament and in the NCAA tournament? A team can go undefeated throughout the entire regular season and conference tournament and have it all slip away because of one bad game. It’s the reality of a single-elimination tournament.
The only difference is that for the America East team, their single-elimination tournament is 3-4 games longer than anyone else’s. Which might not be fair, but is a consequence of having failed to assemble a good enough at-large profile.
by tarspaceheel on Feb 23, 2012 11:55 AM EST up reply actions
In theory giving the bid to the regular season is better
In practice, the Big East tournament is amazing.

This is truth.
They switched out 2 of the low-seed play-in games for games between 12/12 and 13/13, which will likely be your Seton Hall, Alabama, NC state, etc shitty power conference team that barely gets in. But yeah, all the play-in games, not just 2/4, should be these types of matchups.

by videoartistknoxharrington on Feb 23, 2012 12:55 PM EST up reply actions
why?
The eight worst low-major champs are the worst teams in the bracket. They’re the ones that should have the play-in games. Winning your conference gets you in the dance. It doesn’t mean you should have a bye over a team that actually beat a few semi-respectable teams in the regular season.
Because then the small-school guys get to be on-site for 4 days rather than shipped to fucking Dayton.
No other reason. I understand that this doesn’t enhance the competitive integrity of the tourney or whatever. And you may not have the 68 or 64 “best” teams as a result. But more often than not, the cream rises in the tourney. I love the 2nd weekend for much different reasons than I love the 1st.

that's not feasible given 340 teams in division I
Somewhere between 80-100 schools have moved to D-I since the 64-team tournament was started. We’ve added four spots to the bracket in that time. If the bracket had 72-96 teams, schools from major conferences would be playing in the opening round and no one would be complaining the low-major champ weren’t allowed in the real tournament.
I would have preferred staying at 64.
I’ve watched Tennessee, Miami, Minnesota, and Texas all more than once. They’re OK. They’re nowhere near good. Stick them in the NIT and try to raise the profiles of the 2nd tier post-season tournaments or something. In regard to the addition of new teams to D1, how many of them were power conference teams? Do they really need added representation? How many of their at-large spots have been eaten up by new AQs?

the reason for moving to 65
was that NCAA rules require more at-large bids than autobids, and a 32nd conference was created.
I'd prefer the Champions League every time
A short round-robin group stage over the first week (neutral locations)
Followed by Home & Away for the 32 that make it through the group stage
Make the Final Four a neutral location too
The Dance is the round of 64
Opening round is prelims. Teams who already won their conference tourneys won their prelims.

Somebody on ESPN radio VERY late night last year (driving from Georgia to Texas)
had a pretty cool concept. A “bubble week” where teams that are typically in that 8-12 seed range play it out to get those bids. A few neutral court sites around the nation and make it a long weekend deal. I could see that being cool/interesting.

I hate non-power-of-2 for football playoffs
because I think the combination of a bye and home field combined are too much of an advantage in football. But an extra basketball game isn’t a huge deal, as long as you’re not playing every day
A bye and homefield advantage didn't work for William & Mary last year against Georgia Southern
Or Montana State against SNUD that same year. That’s 2 out of the 8 games in the past two years where the home team lost after a bye-week. Sure the home team has an advantage, but that’s why the teams fight so much for that bye week. And then there are other games where BOTH teams got the bye week. In 2010, of those four games in the FCS playoffs, it appears that 3 out of the 4 visiting teams won. This year it was only one of out the four (Maine over App State). But that’s 4 out of 8 visiting teams winning when both have a bye, 2 out of 8 when only the home team has a bye.
After looking at what I just wrote, it’s obvious that the combination of home field AND a bye does matter. But I still like the system set up in FCS right now. The regular season DOES matter. If Georgia Southern hadn’t lost to App State, then SNUD would have been playing in Statesboro instead of GSU traveling to Fargo.

Has led to me walking out without saying a word on more than one occasion.

Worst drink ever received at a bar? I ordered a Guinness at an Old Chicago. Bartender unpacks a glass mug out of an ice trough, pours it full to the brim and hands it to me. One remaining ice cube floated to the top after a minute or so.

MATHLETES AND ENGINERDS
I have a question irregular pyramid volumes and calculus.
I’m trying to find shortcuts while quantifying CYDS of dirt to be excavated around foundation slabs and what not. Since we typically use a 45° slope on out trench walls as a mean of egress, I can just use the formula for a pyramidal frustum to calculate the vplume of dirt needed to be excavated. This requires the area of the base, depth, and the area of the top of the frustum. Easy enough to figure.
What I want to know: What formula or theory can give me the area if the top of the frustum when I only have the depth and bottom area as a given?
Go.

Is the 45 degrees thing a given?
Like, do all of your pyramids have side walls forming a 45 degree angle with the base? Is that what you mean?

Ah, okay.
You don’t need calculus — just some good ole’ fashioned OMNOMtrigoNOMetry.
Picture the thing from the side. Call the bottom base length x and the height h. The whole goal here would be to find the side length of the top ‘base’ - let’s call that s. In your case, you’ll have s = x – 2h. (If you draw the picture, the height will match up exactly with the difference between the top base length and the bottom base length on one side, thanks to your handy-dandy 45 degree angle. Deduct one height for each of the two sides to get the x 2h thing.)
So in short, your top base area will be (x – 2h)^2. (Hopefully I understood the problem correctly….)

Im dealing with irregulars sometimes.
For instance. This foundation is two rectangles of different but similar sizes, T up against each other.
Derivatives might help.
by Kevin@LSU 2.0 on Feb 23, 2012 12:00 PM EST via Android app up reply actions
Unless I'm misunderstanding, similar comments should still apply.
First question: You only referenced knowing the base area, not the base dimensions. Are the base rectangle side lengths actually known?
Assuming you know the lengths of the bottom rectangle, let’s call them x and y. We’ll call the corresponding lengths of the top rectangle by a and b. By looking dead on from either side, using the 45 degree angle, you still see the relations
a = x – 2h
b = y – 2h
So, the top area is still ab = (x – 2h)(y – 2h), which is computable.
Second question: Do you only know the base area, and not the individual dimensions? If so, you’re screwed.
Without more information, the question is indeterminate. Picture the two following pseudo-pyramids:
A has a rectangular base with side lengths 50 and 2
B has a square base with side lengths 10 and 10
all walls form a 45 degree angle with the base
Cut these both at a height of 1. Now, they have the same data insofar as you referenced (base area of 100, height of 1). However, the first pyramid originally only had a height of 1, since the side b corresponding to side y has length 2 – 2 = 0. Hence, its top base area after the cut will be 0. The second pyramid had a height higher than 1, and will therefore have some area on the top.
So, if you’ve got only the two data points you referenced, there’s no way to calculate the given quantity.
Let me know if I’m still misunderstanding the problem.

I think im approaching this the wrong way.
I assumed it would come to one point. But it will come to two points given the constant slope.

Yep, given the 45 degree angle
the only way to get a genuine pyramid is to start with a square base. (Hopefully this information makes your life easier somehow?)

Okay.
You start with a big Pyramid, of base B and height H. If you make a cut at height h, you now have a square pyramid of height h and base area b, and a frustrum with base B, height (H-h) and top b.
That should be enough to do any calculations.

According to the helmet project, Navy's worn the solid gold, sans stripes or logos for every game but 2 since 1974,
and before that, they had special helmets just for the Army-Navy game.

Mention something about how the multiplication of the loaves might not have been an actual miracle
But might have been a metaphor for Jesus inspiring the selfish masses to share what they had with one another. I once got yelled at by my (Catholic) high school religion teacher for suggesting such blasphemy, but it’s a pretty neat interpretation.

by witless chum on Feb 23, 2012 1:01 PM EST up reply actions
Fun fact:
The recruiting class holes left by Willingham started to express themselves in 2006 (O-lineman shortage) and roared into being in 2007. The class that entered as freshmen in 2004, for example, consisted of 15 people. Including 2-3 two star recruits, and one (1) offensive lineman. Those were supposed to be our seniors in 2007.

Six 2* recruits...
…if Rivals is to be believed.
I guess I don’t think that’s all that persuasive a defense, given that Weiss was going into his third year of coaching the Evil Empire Catholic Division, so he’d had some time to identify and fix holes.
Two star recruits aren’t necessarily the end of the world, either. My Spartans recruited seven in 2007. They became: a four-year starter at guard with all-conference honors, a pair of useful contributors at TE and DT, a TE who transferred to Coastal Carolina, a speedy, but stonehanded perennial backup at WR/DB, a four-year starter at punter and a Kentuckian olineman that surprised the coaches by not showing up in August. Not a treasure trove, but not the end of the world in a recruiting class.

HELP needed re: Gumbo
I haven’t seen andouille. I know I can get Chorizo and have defnitely used polish sausage. Would the Chorizo be the better choice? I will keep looking for Andouille but so far from the land of cajuns not much.
Soon I won't have CFB.......BOO. And yes, I am a female.
Personally, I would go with the chorizo in place of the andouille instead of the keilbassa....
But you can order andouille on-line through The Cajun Grocer

Any recommendations on which brand of andouille is better?
There are only 10 types of people in the world: Those that understand binary and those that don't.
Whichever one is in stock!

Gumbo is a dish born from generations of improvision so you cant really go wrong.
That said, I would use dry chorizo or some other heavily smoked pork sausage. Italian sausage would not go well though. its too sweet.

Any good smoked pork sausage can work
But MtnEer is right, you can order some Andouille online if you can find it. Look for brands like Savoie’s, Richard’s or Veron.
I believe Savoie’s ships.

Did you find any at the market in DC?
Were you even the one who asked, or am I thinking of someone else?

Rant incoming.
I went to a small restaurant that had just opened next door to where I work. Saw that they served patty melts and I love me some patty melt. Ordered it thinking that, ‘hey this place is new and looking to make a good impression, I bet they make a tasty patty melt.’ 10-15 minutes later I go back over and pay for my order. Get back into the office and settle down for what I anticipated being a delicious meal. Open the to go container and lo and behold they had put the burger between two pieces of plain bread. It wasn’t toasted, grilled, or even nuked for that matter. So basically they had cooked a burger, slapped some cheese and onions on it and then put it between two uncooked pieces of bread…
IF YOU ARE GOING TO CHARGE ME 6 FUCKING DOLLARS FOR A BURGER AT LEAST HAVE THE DECENCY TO TOSS THE BREAD ON THE GRILL FOR A FEW SECONDS. I’D APPRECIATE IT IF THE BREAD WAS BUTTERED BUT HEY, I CAN LIVE WITHOUT IT. AND I KNOW YOU COULDN’T BE ASSED TO PUT MAYO ON IT AND INSTEAD GAVE ME A PACKAGE IN THE BOX AND THAT’S OKAY AS WELL BUT SERIOUSLY…. PUT THE BREAD ON THE FUCKING GRILL! GUESS WHAT, YOU CAN EVEN DO IT WHILE THE BURGER IS COOKING! YOU’VE GOT TWO HANDS (I THINK), SURELY IT CAN’T BE THAT HARD! OH WAIT, I KNOW ITS NOT THAT HARD BECAUSE I’VE DONE IT BEFORE MYSELF. ENJOY THAT $6 BECAUSE YOU AREN’T SEEING ANOTHER DIME FROM ME.

Welp, it looks like we aren't going to have to worry about Craig James returning to the booth
The senate run have been completely successful

Really doesn't matter if they do or not
That’s the kind of view that isn’t likely to sit well at the Mouse if he tries to come back
Without meaning to call down the spiders here . . .
. . . let me just note that a debate between Ted Cruz (a classmate of mine) and Craig James probably should be classified as a bloodsport and not made available via over-the-air television.
