DBD 11.18.09 Gather Round Me, My Knights!

PrintAs we careen helplessly towards that new Twilight movie coming out, my wife is informing me more and more about certain things regarding this disaster. One question I had was how did those pants get on the werewolf afterwards. He turns into a werewolf, all his clothes should tear off of him. Which is fine when he's a werewolf, but then when he turns back into a human being, wouldn't he thus be naked? How does he get those pants on him?
Turns out that as a werewolf, he keeps a bag on him at all times with a pair of pants in them. Yes.
He has a werewolf fanny pack.
I mean this is the most stupidest thing ever since the last thing Mrs. Twist told me about Twilight. I get that they all love to see that (UNDERAGE!) boy without his shirt on. This should make carp feel less bad about being so perverted. And Oski feel less bad about that rolling candy distribution PART-AY! he's got going there.
Because seriously this is so unimaginably stupid, it could ONLY be either in a DBD or the movie Twilight. Twilight continues to battle these DBDs for ridiculous stupidity. And they've clearly one-upped us with werewolf fanny pack. I MEAN ITS A WEREWOLF FANNY PACK! That might be the King right there.
Could we beat that? Could we OUT stupid a Werewolf Fanny Pack? The gaunlet has been dropped, DBD Denizens. LET'S RISE TO THE CHALLENGE!
Cal Women's BBall wins over St. Mary's. NorCalNick is so torn:
Freshman Layshia Clarendon hit a go-ahead jumper with 48 seconds left and a free throw with 7 seconds remaining and No. 17 California overcame a cold shooting night to beat Saint Mary's 68-65 on Tuesday for its fifth straight win in the series.
Tifa Puletasi missed a 3-pointer from the top of the arc as the buzzer sounded for Saint Mary's, which was trying to beat a ranked team for the first time since Nov. 17, 2000, a 74-63 win over Stanford.
It was far from a pretty tuneup for the Golden Bears (2-0) before Sunday's highly anticipated showdown with No. 8 Baylor at Haas Pavilion - 11 months after these teams were supposed to play. The Baylor team couldn't make it to the Bay Area last December because of weather.
Natasha Vital had 17 points, six rebounds and three steals to lead Cal and freshmen DeNesha Stallworth and Talia Caldwell each added 10 points and eight rebounds. Clarendon finished with 11 points.
"We'll take it any way we can get it. It's not pretty," Cal coach Joanne Boyle said. "Throughout the game we were rattled and had a lack of poise. With a young team, we have to get better at that."
Kate Gaze hit back-to-back 3-pointers to put Saint Mary's ahead 64-59 with 4:30 left before Cal rallied. Gaze finished with 10 points but also six of her team's 24 turnovers. Katie Batlin led the Gaels (1-1) with 12 points, six rebounds and three assists.
The opinions expressed in a FanPost are, in every way, reflective of the opinions of every California Golden Blogs Marshawnthusiast. Moreover, they are reflective of every employee of SBNation, including Tyler "Blez" Bleszinski.

VBall heads to the Arizonas:
BERKELEY – The Golden Bears carry a five-match winning streak into the desert and seek to gain momentum as they close the regular season on the road. The No. 11-ranked California volleyball team will try to take all four matches from the Arizona schools in the same season for the third time in four years as it faces the Sun Devils and the Wildcats this weekend. During the course of its current winning streak, Cal has defeated four ranked teams including the upset of a No. 4-ranked Washington while on the road. With wins against Oregon State and Oregon last week, the Bears reached the 10-win mark in Pac-10 play for the sixth time in seven years and are still alive for a share of their first conference title. Two victories in the Copper State would give Cal its longest winning streak of the season and put the Bears in position to tie their best Pac-10 finish in school history. Senior outside hitter Hana Cutura continues to shine for the Bears as she leads the team in kills and points per set. Nationally, she ranks third and fourth respectively in those statistical categories
THE FACTS: The No. 11-ranked California volleyball team (17-8. 10-5 Pac-10) begins a three-match road stretch to end the regular season with matches in Arizona. The Golden Bears will take on Arizona State (13-13, 3-11 Pac-10) in a 7:30 p.m. MST match at Wells Fargo Arena in Tempe, Ariz., on Friday, Nov. 20, before they head up the interstate to face No. 19 Arizona (18-7, 7-7 Pac-10) in a 1 p.m. MST matinee on Sunday, Nov. 22, at the McKale Memorial Center in Tucson, Ariz.
SIGHTS AND SOUNDS: Both the Arizona and the Arizona State match will feature live statistics via Gametracker. The Arizona match will feature live streaming video via the www.arizonaathletics.com All-Access subscription package. Links for live stats can also be found at www.thesundevils.com or www.calbears.com. Fans can also receive set-score updates and a behind-the-scenes look at the Bears by following CalVolleyball on www.twitter.com/calvolleyball.</blockquote>

Big Splash coming!
Sat. Nov. 21 at Stanford, Avery Aquatic Center Stanford, Calif. 2 p.m.
Bear Bites: No. 2 Cal men’s water polo (20-4, 6-1) has a huge MPSF league match this week as the Golden Bears travel to No. 3 Stanford (19-2, 6-1) for the Big Splash Saturday, Nov. 21 at 2 p.m. at Avery Aquatic Center. Cal, which owns an NCAA-record 13 national water polo titles and is currently on a nine-match winning streak, will be battling the Cardinal for seeding at the Nov. 27-29 MPSF Championship in Los Angeles. The winner of the Big Splash (Steve Heaston Trophy) will be the No. 2 seed entering the conference tournament. Of the Bears’ four losses this season, three have come in the hands of defending NCAA champion USC (whom Cal upended in the 2006 and 2007 national title matches). Cal’s other loss was 8-7 to Stanford, Sept. 20 at the NorCal Invite at Stanford. However, the Bears have the distinction of handing the Cardinal one of only two losses on the year, 10-8, in the Oct. 11 semifinals of the UCI Invitational. Stanford’s other loss was 13-12 in overtime to USC this past Saturday in Los Angeles. Cal owns three MPSF Player of the Week accolades this season – sophomore Cory Nasoff Sept. 8, junior center Zach White Oct. 12 and sophomore goalie Wil Toppen Oct. 19.
Cal Standouts: Everist’s troops feature senior captains Spencer Warden and Mike Sample, and juniors Brian Dudley and Zach White – all members of the Bears’ 2007 NCAA championship team. Warden and Dudley notched scores during the 8-6 win over USC in the `07 final. Warden, a three-time All-American, garnered second-team All-America honors last year after leading Cal with 40 goals and 68 steals; while Dudley was an honorable mention All-American after scoring 28 goals, including a match-winning shot in overtime at Long Beach State. The Bears also feature sophomore attacker Nasoff, who earned this season’s first MPSF Player of the Week honor when he notched 11 goals in three Navy Open matches. Cal’s other MPSF Players of the Week this season were Toppen when he tallied nine saves in the Bears’ 7-6 road victory at UCLA, and junior center White, who had four goals apiece in both the Loyola Marymount and Stanford wins, and had nine ejections earned in three of the four UCI Invitational matches.

Has Mrs. TnH formed an opinion on pro-underage werewolf or pro-brooding vampire? My wife informs me that people the ladies are sharply divided along this fault line.
I would like to point out that not all the ladies are in this boat. I do not read twilight, and thus have no opinion. Although I might if the werewolf always lost his pants which invariably led to sex in a soft-porn kind of way.
Honk if you think Rags is great!

I actually asked her about this last night. She expressed confusion as to how anybody who has read the book could in “Team Jacob” and had never actually heard about the teams.
Oddly enough, she thinks Robert Patinson looks like a shmuck in real life. So, I think she is pro-Taylor Lautner, anti-Jacob, pro-Edward, anti-Robert Patinson.

I'm reading through this facebook fan page
http://www.facebook.com/pages/GO-CARDINAL-Cal-vs-Stanford/155869462823
It reminds me of how much I absolutely hate stanford and their fans. God, their fans.
And their constant referal to the transitive property of college. God.
They are the worst bandwagoner fans ever.
I can't read that
But if the transitive property is true,
Zona>Stanford
Cal (without Best)>Zona
Thus
Cal>Furd
QED

And then comments like this:
overall the pac-10 sucks in general…we need to develop our players better then rivalries like these would be on a massive scale of importance like Oklahoma & Texas…
Its like they haven’t even watched any pac-10 games this season.
Seriously, they are citing Texas and Oklahoma? The teams weren’t even in the same conference between 1919 and 1996.

I suppose Stanfurd fans are kinda like Psyduck – he doesn’t know his tail from his beak half the time, and almost never gets his attacks right.
But in Psyduck’s defense, he’s not inherently evil and occasionally does something right.
Plus he’s so cute!

What is amazing
Is that all of a sudden you have all of these Furdies out there, sporting their gear and pounding their chests.
Nothing says “Fair Weather Fan” like a few Furd wins.
It’s the ultimate annoyance to have to endure these people. They strike me as nothing so much as the lace dandy-boys of 18th Century France – compete with powdered wig, kerchief tucked into their cuff, and the sniffing air of a prancing effete. And now these social vermin are out and about behaving as if they’ve been supporting their team and attending games all the way back to 2001.
If for no other reason, we need to beat them just to put these bandwagoners back into the deep hole out of which they’ve recently crawled.

Hey here’s a thought. Write a DBD yourself and put it up. I only do it as a last line of defense. If I wake up and there isn’t one by 7:30 AM PST, I put up one. I tend to just write something on the spot. But if there is a DBD there already, then I don’t do it.
So, write your own! I’ve begged all of you to do this for months n ow.

So if I’m up at work at 7:20 and I don’t see a DBD up, I’m alllowed to put one up about anything i feel like?
Well, of course, keep it safe for work. And I guess HOUSE66 would appreciate if it wasn’t about Twilight. But anything that LOWERS the amount of work I do, for free, for this godforsaken website makes me happy.
I’ve repeated it many times, that I want to be the last line of defense on DBDs. Only if nobody else has put one up yet.

I was up at 6:45am! And I checked the blog (after I first doing pranks on sleeping Rags and Ragsdog) and there was no DBD. So I thought maybe I should put one up. Maybe but no… the last time I inadvertently stumbled and ruined some well-planned super awesome DBD…
So really, you can’t complain if you’ve set up a system where only you are the DBD coordinator.
Mine would not have been about twilight.
Honk if you think Rags is great!
Theres no DBD coordinator. Its a race. Get it up first.
I find it highly doubtful that I ever wrote super awesome DBDs. But I certainly don’t anymore. Beat me to the punch and you win.

Yes, thank you for putting this up. I hadn’t heard that best’s ‘first’ concussion was actually determined to be a cold. This makes me feel a little better.
Buchman and the associate football team physician, Dr. Casey Batten, however, said that they later determined that Best’s headache and dizziness were merely from a cold, and that he was cleared for the Arizona State game appropriately.
Honk if you think Rags is great!
See, this is why people shouldn’t jump to conclusions that question the team doctors’ competency. That is good news, and should be pointed out in the future whenever people discuss Jahvid’s “two” concussions.

I know the Chron is well-read by the good readers of CGB, but I’ll link to a few articles to feel better about myself.
Memories of Big Game loss linger:
Research project: Tepper wants to make sure Cal’s young players understand the history and tradition of the Big Game. So he “assigned” freshman center Mark Brazinski to write a six- to eight-page paper on the history of the Stanford Axe, due Tuesday.
“We send him on periodic research assignments,” Tepper said. “I told him no Wikipedia quotations, either – we need good, reasonable sources.”
A wide-eyed Tavecchio – who stands 5-foot-8 and a “heavy” 170 pounds, as he put it – marveled at the way one Arizona player leveled him on a kickoff Saturday.
Also, the article points out he’s (still) not on scholarship, so he commutes from Moraga.

Under very very loose guidelines this could be deemed hazing.
I also love how a 6-8 page paper is nothing to these guys! (as it shouldn’t be, but apparently other universities don’t have standards).
Honk if you think Rags is great!
Agreed.
That paper is pretty funny and uniquely Berkeley. What kind of nerd football team assigns writing a paper as hazing?!?! Next year I bet someone gets assigned a 10-minute oratory in Latin on why trees are unaccepable as mascots…
I don’t get it. They’re blurring the line between jock and nerd. Has everyone gone insane? What’s next, dogs and cats living together?

our players are already nerds and I LOVE it.

One of the first things that stuck out today was the presence of tight end Anthony Miller, who has missed the past two games following arthroscopic knee surgery.

Big Game Titration
Just got out of Chem 1A, and the Big Game Titration was a success! At least for the 9 a.m. lecture. There are still 2 more lectures at 11 and 1 (almost 1500 people are taking Chem 1A).
Prof. Majda (one of 3 Chem 1A professors) sang Big C with the titration verse while Prof. Stacy (the 9 a.m. lecturer) stirred the goo, which turned to blue. Then they showed the full video of The Play, including the Stanfurd field goal before The Play itself. When they got to “oh, the band is out on the field!” the entire class erupted into laughter and cheering. It was awesome.
GO BEARS!

Titration is where you neutralize an acid and a base to find the concentration of one of them. For example, you could have a basic solution of unknown concentration, then you add an acidic solution of known concentration. Then you can calculate the concentration of the base.
Btw, does anyone know the exact chemistry behind the titration?

No, it clearly was a joke aimed at 2 things:
1. A joke from our podcast last night which we have yet to actually post up, so how would I expect you to know that unless you are living in my apartment under my bed creepy!
2. The fact that it, in some way, contains the word “tit.” So, yknow.

they have colorimetric dyes or indicators that change color at a certain pH.
A very common one used in hardcore labs is titrating alkyllithium reagents with diphenylacetic acid. You can deprotonate it twice and it changes color. :)
PS – IMO, one of the fields biggest screw ups is having WAY too many titration labs. There are way cooler things they could be doing (but don’t).

It’s true, I am. I used to eat down there all the time. When I first came to Berkeley as a 16-year-old kid(doing summer research 400 miles from home) back in 1994, I used to eat on campus a lot, and the Healthy Heavenly ladies were always nice to me. I remember when Preacher Eddie started working for them a while back, cooking hot dogs on Fridays – I always thought that was a neat thing to see. I mean, how many big chain stores would do that? Not that it was a pity thing, but most big stores would see him preaching on campus one time and write him off forever, not getting to see the good person he is(I’ve talked to him several times over the years, he’s a good guy).
Healthy Heavenly has been a campus entity for so long, and run by the same two nice ladies the whole time. It will truly be a shame to lose such a strong, longstanding member of the campus community.

actually, I turned 16 that year. So I guess I was actually 15 for most of that summer.
Editing the DOI was a lot like making love to a woman. I hadn’t done either at that age, so it was scary, confusing, a little messy, and a lot of mistakes were made. Plus, I got yelled at after I was done.

From the Guardian:
John Lally has written in with distressing news for the Irish: ANNOUNCEMENT BY FIFA: “FOR THESE PLAY-OFFS THE AWAY GOALS RULE HAS BEEN SUSPENDED (IN THE CASE OF IRISH AWAY GOALS) AND SHOULD IRELAND PREVAIL 2-1 OVER FRANCE THEY WILL GO TO EXTRA TIME AND THEN A BAGUETTE-MAKING CONTEST.”
Yes, if no more goals are score, they’ll have 2 15 minute OT periods, then go to PKs.
If Ireland win 2-1, Ireland will advance on away goals so basically, if Ireland gets a 2nd, the Frogs will need to win 4-2 to advance.

CGB: Wasting Your Potential, Your Time, & Your Life Since 2006.
During the regular season, there isn’t any overtime or PK’s to settle a match, it just ends tied. In the playoffs (or knockout rounds of a tournament), it’s been 2 15 minute OT periods followed by PKs for as long as I can remember.
Not to confuse you but England used to have a “replay” if a Cup match ended in a draw and they would replay the damn thing as many times as it took to get a winner. That ended a couple of decades ago though, too much fixture congestion.

Yes and No. They change the exact method every time but usually they seed the top 8 teams, then split the pots into groups so that multiple teams from the same region will be in a single group. Europe is an exception to this but they still try to limit it to 2 Euro teams in any one group.

Andrew Luck--the next Manning?
The father, a former NFL quarterback, won’t take credit.
The coach, a quarterback of 15 NFL seasons, plays down his role.
The kid himself, Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck, dishes off praise like a point guard. He points back toward the dad, former Houston Oilers quarterback Oliver Luck, toward the coach, Jim Harbaugh, toward teammates.
Anyone but the one wearing No. 12 on his Stanford jersey.
“I make a lot of young mistakes,” said Luck, the Cardinal’s redshirt freshman, ignoring the mounting evidence to the contrary.
As he prepares for his first Big Game against Cal on Saturday, he isn’t acting, or playing, like a freshman. Luck, 20, is acting, and playing, like someone destined to join Frankie Albert, John Brodie and John Elway in the pantheon of great Stanford quarterbacks.
But others will have to say it.
“There have been some really good quarterbacks at Stanford since John Elway,” ESPN broadcaster David Norrie said. "But this is the first Stanford quarterback since Elway where you go, ‘Wow.’ "
Elway, who starred at Stanford (1978-82) before becoming an NFL Hall of Famer, said Luck has “proven he’s got all the tools.”
Jim Plunkett, Stanford’s Heisman Trophy winner in 1970, has enjoyed watching those tools at work this season.
“I don’t think I’ve seen that much composure from a young man taking the field,” he said, comparing the Cardinal quarterback to Eli or Peyton Manning in their early collegiate years.

It’s more that they both struggle with the easier things yet can uncork that ball like no other.
Hydro has said Riley’s on the short side…plus his QB stance is all strange because he kind of squats when he holds the ball.

Poor Nick Foles
I feel bad for him the way I felt for Riley. (Ted Miller)
“It’s just crazy,” Foles said. “It’s one of those things that you wouldn’t think would happen for 100 years but it’s happened to our team two times in a year and I was part of it both times. It’s just one of those things you’ve got to learn from. It’s tough to lose games like that but you can’t beat yourself up over it.”
Ah, but one gets a sense that Foles has beaten himself up plenty. He admits he didn’t sleep after the Cal game. He wasn’t much for eating on Sunday, either.
“You feel like crap,” he said. "You wish you had the play back. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve replayed it in my head and what could have gone different.

At least Foles had a chance for redemption in the game (after our botched PAT) and still has a chance for redemption in this season (Zona can still go to Rose Bowl). Riley had neither of those chances in 2007.
Praise be to Tedford!
I’m also referring to the pass against UW when it should’ve been run, run, run (prolly more on Stoops and Dykes though). He doesn’t make either of those mistakes and Arizona is sitting in the driver’s seat for the Rose Bowl.

How do I tell a co-worker to fuck off politely without getting into trouble?
Basically he’s assigned me some work that’s technically his job. He originally assigned it because he thought it doesn’t work and I had to fix it. Well I proved that it worked for me and for others. Now he has to fix it for himself but he’s bugging me to do it. Another co-worker told me to tell him to fuck off but I don’t want to make enemies… oh decisions…

Kansas football in trouble?
Coach Mangino been physically abusing a player? This is what is known, click on the link for the speculation.
* The Kansas athletic department is investigating the Kansas program and coach Mangino based on potentially inappropriate conduct brought to the departments attention by a player.
* It is being reported that this stems from an incident where Coach Mangino allegedly poked senior linebacker Arist Wright in the chest.
* Mangino does have a history of hot tempered flare ups ranging from the newly reported incident with the KU parking department to the occurrence at his sons high school football game.
* There was a meeting with Coach Mangino and Lew Perkins.
* There was a meeting with Lew Perkins and the Kansas Coaching staff.
* There have been one on one player meetings as well.
* Practice was business as usual yesterday, Mangino on the practice field.
* Speaking to several players they say they are focused on Texas and trying to avoid get involved in all the hype right now.
* Coach Mangino has done a tremendous job of turning the Kansas program into a competitive one. Things aren’t panning out the way anyone hoped this season but as a whole the man has clearly been successful in his career whether that be during his time at Kansas State, Oklahoma or here at Kansas.
* Chris Harris…""I have a pretty good relationship with (Mangino)," Harris said. “I’ve been playing since I got here, and I haven’t done anything wrong, so my relationship with him has been pretty good. If you do something wrong, you’re going to get in the dog house, and I’ve pretty much kept my way out of doing wrong.”
* Brandon McAnderson…“I knew immediately,” said McAnderson, “They told me, ‘If you want to get coddled, don’t go to Kansas. If you want to play for a guy that’s a disciplinarian, then that’s what you’re getting yourself into.’”
* Todd Reesing, asked whether he felt Mangino had the support of Perkins, “I think Lew is doing what he has to do in the position he has.”
* “He’s always been very stern in his resolve,” Reesing said. “… The way he’s approached football is the way a lot of people approach it. He takes the same approach that coaches all across the nation do.”
*Dexton Fields also said he thought the rumors that were now surfacing were legitimate and had been occurring since he came to Kansas in 2004.
“It’s been a long time that that stuff has been happening and it had to surface,” Fields said. “Of all the talent that KU has there, it had to be some other reason that KU isn’t producing out on the field. It’s been long overdue.”
* “I knew it was a matter of time before somebody reported it or said something, because it’s been happening since I got there and I’m sure before then,” Marcus Herford said. “I’m surprised actually that it took this long honestly.”

Disciplinarian, sure. But no coach has been in trouble for mentally abusing his players (to my knowledge). The only thing that seems physical is Coach Mangino allegedly poking senior linebacker Arist Wright in the chest.

Right or wrong, isn’t that why Cal fired Lou Campanelli in 1993?
Praise be to Tedford!
Makovic?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGZqOkeYbB0
I think Makovic was fired because his players mutinied. Also, losing football games.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
Midway through the 2002 season, Mackovic told tight end Justin Levasseur that he was a disgrace to his family. This and other incidents led 40 players (including future Pro Bowler Lance Briggs) to hold a secret meeting with school president Peter Likins. The players complained about Mackovic’s constant verbal abuse, such as an ugly tirade after a loss to Wisconsin. Ultimately, Mackovic offered a public apology to his players, the university and fans.4 2 However, whatever goodwill that he’d managed to restore quickly evaporated a season later; quarterback Nic Costa said that despite a very talented roster, many players had lost their love for the game due to Mackovic’s brusque manner. Five games into the 2003 season, Mackovic was fired and replaced by defensive coordinator Mike Hankwitz. School officials said they had to act because it was obvious the Wildcats would not win with Mackovic at the helm.5

Ironically...
Levasseur was later arrested on drug charges after being caught with 87 lbs of marijuana in his truck.
IF I recall correctly, Levasseur pleaded guilty and was sentenced to probation and fines.
Praise be to Tedford!
I was working from the assumption that his players mutinied because of Makovic being an asshole, for which reason it could be said that Makovic got in trouble for mentally abusing his players. And losing football games. And being John Makovic. (Coached Texas to a 66-3 home loss to UCLA! How did he get a job at a BCS school after that!?)
