  1. Mad Money October 18th. Full show less all commercials except for opening promotion. Show was filmed at the Faircrest Plant in Canton. http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000123414&play=1
  2. http://yhoo.it/X1JQUc Note the accuracy of the picture caption!
  3. http://bit.ly/VjvbFO
  4. "I am proud to be a student in Oxford Ohio. We attract the highest quality students to Miami University. The faculty is tremendous. After several years on campus and many hard hours in the classroom I can now use both hands and count to ten!" Photo courtesy of Miami University Athletic Department
  5. Coliseo Ruben Rodriquez Exterior View Interior View A little longer bus ride from the hotel but great news for Abreu's mom and friends.
  6. http://bit.ly/CantState
  7. "Multiple Team Events" (or MTE for short). Division 1 schools can not play in the same multi-team event twice over a four-year period, but any school may participate in a MTE every season if it so chooses. Up to four games in one MTE counts as a single game within the 28 game season maximum. Net result is you can play a total of 31 games per season if you schedule a four game MTE.
  8. It runs as a local commercial at least once each evening on WKYC during the Olympic coverage. Tressel is the spokesperson. I could not find a copy on uakron.edu or Youtube.
  9. As of today, 22 people have put deposits down on the Puerto Rico trip put together by the Athletic Development Department and Chima Travel. Chima has over twenty additional coach tickets reserved on the United flights to San Juan. This is a pretty good deal considering it includes air fare, hotel room, all taxes, tips, resort fees, ground transportation and game tickets. I have stayed at this hotel (the last time we played in Puerto Rico) and it is a good location and well maintained property. Make your decision about joining us before the tickets are gone.
  10. In the third installment, coach takes the players to the City of Can't Police Department and lets them sit in the back of a cruiser so they are more comfortable during their first arrest.
  11. Usual boring restrictor plate race until the last 15 laps. Amazing how Smoke could be half-a-lap behind the lead pack at the half way mark and come back to win after starting in 42nd position. Nice night for Stewart-Haas. A win for Smoke and a 5th place finish for Ryan Newman. But still a boring race for the first 145 laps.
  12. The OJ at Lawson's was OK. Their French Onion Chip Dip was (and still is) the best.
  13. 6/19/2012 article from Pittsburgh Tribune. http://triblive.com/sports/2007588-74/damb...ment-basketball

  15. Not unless we have become a Lipton Tea school.
  16. Or use this one...... http://bit.ly/JV6wSj
  17. I was provided with a flier and made the original post based upon it. I didn't even check to see if Gozips.com had been updated. I'll send a note to the staff today to get the info on their website. Glad to hear you are coming back to support the event.
  18. Hey Captain, have your reserved your foursome yet. One of your continuing gripes has been resolved. The football golf outing is back. Fliers are in the mail. They have a title sponsor this year, "Leaf Filter", a gutter protection product. Reserve early if you want to attend.
  19. Can you provide a link to this bid. When I searched the purchasing dept active bids page I did not find a residential dorm project on the active list.
  20. I attended the NIT game at Northwestern last night. The Nerds of NU had a good student section last night and their entire sports complex is very much off campus. The distance from their campus to the sports complex on Central Street is equivalent to the distance between Rt8 and S. Main street in Akron. http://maps.northwestern.edu/#latlngz=42.062%2C-87.679%2C14
  21. Check out the MAC first team on this trash site. The choice for center is an all-time classic. http://www.collegesportsmadness.com/article/3376
  22. Haven of Rest does great work but is in an unfortunate location. The north side of University Park has rhe same issues with street drug use, panhandling and minor crimes. It's not the Haven's fault but the problem has spread from Grace Park to cover the entire area north of Market Street.
  23. 1. Summa does not own a singe lot within those boundaries. All are owned by the City of Akron except for the former Martin Chevy lot which I believe was purchsed by either the city or UPA. 2. The Haven of Rest is several blocks to the west of those boundaries. 3. UPA has this area targeted for a mix of business, retail and apartment development. No chance of an arena on this spot when the Mayor prefers the Mayflower block on Main St.
  24. Charlie has not looked well the last few weeks. He looked very lathargic when he visited the JAR. He was somewhat more animated when they honored Wally Szczerbiak at the Can't game on Tuesday. He is now in the hospital. He will not coach this weekend in Buffalo http://www.muredhawks.com/sports/m-baskbl/.../022412aab.html
  25. I'm in. If you are going the team is staying at the Tulsa Southern Hills Marriott. The team is chartering a plane to Tulsa.
