By the time this article is published, it will be a mere fortnight (roughly) until Ring of Honor returns to Chicago Ridge, IL. On the card for that evening is CM Punk versus Classic Colt Cabana. Many speculate, as they have been for months now, that this will be CM Punk’s very last ROH match. I for one hope this is true. CM’s title run came too late, and felt too flustered. I hope that by the time I’m screaming my head off and pretending to be straight edge, Punk will have dropped the belt to James Gibson, and that Punk and Cabana get to put on one last classic in front of their home town faithful. It seems fitting for his farewell to be in front of the Chicago crowd. I can think of no group of fans that loves Punker more than the wild fans of the Second City.

QUICK TAKE:
Drama: A young man must deal with various internal and external obstacles as he sets out to become the first golfer to win the sport's coveted Grand Slam in this biographical look at legend Bobby Jones.
PLOT:
It's 1910 Georgia and Bobby Jones (DEVON GEARHART) is a somewhat sickly 8-year-old whose overprotective mother, Clara (CONNIE RAY), won't let him play with the other boys for fear of his safety. However, his lawyer father, Big Bob (BRETT RICE), does allow the boy to tag along while playing golf with clients, much to the dismay of Bobby's grandfather (DAN ALBRIGHT) who thinks that both his son and grandson are wasting their time. Yet, by the time he's fourteen, Bobby (THOMAS LEWIS) is quite the sensation on the golf course, drawing the attention of sports writers such as O.B. Keeler (MALCOLM McDOWELL). Although he isn't looking for fame and is playing just for his love no matter how frustrated it might be of the game, he soon becomes a well-known figure in the sport. Years later, Bobby (JIM CAVIEZEL) is even better, but meets his match in U.S. Open champion Walter Hagen (JEREMY NORTHAM) who shows the young man a thing or two about the game and people involved with it.

TURNING POINT
A ntiwar sentiment is on the rise, but is the antiwar movement? A steadily increasing number of Americans oppose invading Iraq, and a full two-thirds want to see a " smoking gun " before we set a course for empire. Around the world, opposition is overwhelming, not only in the Middle East (except Israel), but throughout Europe. The United Kingdom is especially boiling over with rage at Blair, not only from the Labor left but also from the "Britain first" right . The image of Tony Blair frantically wagging his tail and begging for a bone from Washington is universally unappealing. A number of demonstrations are planned over the next two months, and, here in America, where the majority oppose a unilateral attack , it seems as if a day hardly goes by without the announcement of a new coalition of antiwar groups, one more "mainstream" than the last.

Boxing Hall of Fame announces Class of '04
Nelson, Qawi earn first-ballot enshrinement in Canastota; ceremonies June 13
Fri, Jan 9, 2004
JEFF WAGER
Observer-Dispatch CANASTOTA
Former light heavyweight champion Jose Torres looked at four photos in front of him and smiled. "They represent the kind of fighter champions are made of," he said as he eyed pictures of Azumah Nelson, Carlos Palomino, Dwight Muhammad Qawi and Daniel Zaragoza. "Each one of them are thinkers, they have character ... and without that, they cannot have become champions." And now, each one of them like Torres is an inductee into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame unveiled its 15-member Class of 2004 Thursday afternoon at the boxing shrine's year-old events pavilion. In addition to Nelson, Palomino, Qawi and Zaragoza enshrined under the "Modern" category, the Hall of Fame will host fellow living inductees Stanley Christodoulou, J Russell Peltz and W.C. Heinz at the 15th annual induction ceremonies June 13 at the Hall grounds.

TOUCHING GLOVES WITH... "IRISH" GIL KING by Dan Hanley This past October, while attending the 2004 World Boxing Hall of Fame banquet, I was indulging my fistic fanaticism at the memorabilia show. This is an annual treat at the banquet. The chance for the fan to rub elbows and get a photo or simply get into a good hash session with these grand old pugs. It was here that a 30-year-old memory flashed across the old noggin. Although ex-leather slingers were darting back and forth, one in particular caught my eye. I stared intently across the canopied terrace at this fellow who had just entered the area and thought to myself, "My God, that looks like Gil King." Of course, that was impossible. I had heard Gil King was dead. Killed in some freak drive-by shooting. My curiosity soon turned into astonishment when ring announcer Danny Valdivia announced to the crowd: "Ladies and Gentlemen, now entering the area, former welterweight contender, 'Irish' Gil King."

Don't dismiss possibility of malicious code on Linux
By Michael S. Mimoso, News Editor
Many in the Linux community scoff at the possibility of a major virus or worm slithering about their platform. With source code open to inspection, surely someone in the community will find and remediate dangerous vulnerabilities that could be exploited by pieces of malicious code similar to those that plague Windows. But Central Command Inc., a Medina, Ohio-based antivirus vendor, warns that companies utilizing Linux in server or desktop environments cannot afford to be so dismissive in their thinking. CEO Keith Peer said that, as Linux rises in popularity in distributed enterprises, administrators and security officers should not succumb to a false sense of security. "If the operating system is damaged, it can be replaced in minutes, and it's free," Peer said. "The data that is lost is irreplaceable and valuable." More virus writers are turning their attention to Linux and writing code specific to the platform. Peer estimates there have been fewer than 100 viruses written for Linux, including Ramen, Lion, Slapper and Lindose, which is a cross-platform worm that hits Windows and Linux ELF executables.

Great period piece with great values. 15 May 2004
Author: from St. Johns, AZ, USA
A nice, indeed refreshing departurealong the lines of Sea Biscuit, Radio, and Chariots of Firefrom today's largely vacuous movie fare. The generational interplay between grandfather, father, and son together with the undergirding theme that there are things more important than championships, combine to make this a fine film.
This film is not for those whose entertainment tastes demand sex, gratuitous violence, or fast paced action. On the other hand, if you are tired of that type entertainment and enjoyed the above mentioned films, or Master and Commander, you should find this a very worthwhile picture. Unfortunately, it was not well-attended the day I saw it, though I did attend a matinee.

Mystery Writers of America: A Historical Survey
by Barry and Angela Zeman
Thomas Cope wrote in the New York World-Telegram, Monday, March 26, 1945, in part ... "A dark deed was done at the cross-roads of America today. A small distinguished band of experts in murder gumshoed into a dingy office near Times Square. A silken-voiced young woman with beautiful, deadly eyes fished a legal document out of a wastebasket with a false bottom. "The assembled experts gloated over the vellum which set forth articles of incorporation under the laws of the State of New York. Then with legal grins they elected officers pro-tem and disbanded, each in search of a bottle of Scotch for the first annual party, to take place somewhere, somehow, next month. "Thus was born Mystery Writers of America, Inc...." The late Lawrence Treat, former President of Mystery Writers of America and one of its founders, in a letter to one of the authors of this article gave a bit more intimate detail: "Once upon a time, a writer, an editor and a writer-editor had lunch together. (Treat, Marie Rodell, and Clayton Rawson - in that order.) "Clayt told about the British crime writers who met irregularly and had a ritual involving a pledge always to play fair with their readers, and to make various other promises for the good of their craft. He suggested that we do something of the sort here, in America. Thus with or without, but probably with, the requisite number of martinis, MWA started.

JOHN F. RHODES/DMN A rare form of cancer cost Marcus senior Frank Jones his right arm and shoulder, but he didn't want his football career to end. Frank Jones didn't worry about having only one arm to make the tackle. He only worried about letting his team down. As a teammate wrapped up the Grapevine running back's legs, Jones aimed for the chest, using his helmet and upper body to finish the tackle. Grapevine's comeback hopes were over. And Jones' comeback was complete, 15 months after doctors told him they needed to amputate his right arm and shoulder.
Cowboys-49ers loses its luster

MICHAEL AINSWORTH / DMN George Teague blasted then 49ers receiver Terrell Owens for celebrating at midfield at Texas Stadium after a TD in 2000. But memorable moments have been few in the series recently. For the Newberrys of Antioch, Calif., Cowboys-San Francisco 49ers remains a big event. They still talk about the grand playoff games of the 1970s and the three epic NFC title games that determined Super Bowl winners in the 1990s. Cowboys vs. 49ers is big for the fans, but not for the NFL. Cowboys-49ers has deteriorated from five-star rivalry into dreary pairing.

Hunter S. Thompson (Photo by Allen G. Arpadi) Hunter Stockton Thompson July 18 February 20 ) was an American journalist and author . He was known for his flamboyant writing style, most notably deployed in his novel Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas , which blurred the distinctions between writer and subject, fiction and nonfiction. It became known as gonzo journalism and was widely imitated.

Christopher Moore Interviews
Interview On Writing How easy or difficult is it to become a published writer?
Becoming a "published" writer isn't that difficult. If one has a little talent and is willing to work, it's not that tough to get published in local magazines and papers. Now becoming a NATIONALLY published writer, that's a different story, and very often takes years of work and tons of luck as well. It's obviously easier to publish non-fiction than fiction, simple because there's so much more of it, but it's still not easy. How would you compare publishing fiction to freelance writing? Well, publishing fiction IS freelancing, in a way. The only difference is that you're selling books instead of articles. That's the short answer. In truth, freelance magazine writing involves a lot more hustling that is, trying to sell the articles. Most agents won't do this for you, they deal almost exclusively in books, so trying to get magazine assignments usually involves a lot of time on the phone with editors and a lot of follow-up. You are much more of a salesman than a novelist is. (I live for five years with a freelance magazine writer, so I have some experience with this.)

96. Profootball History1
pro FOOTBALL THE EARLY DAYS By Hugh Wyatt Should he turn pro at all? Modern-day sports-talk shows would have feasted on the controversy.
http://www.coachwyatt.com/profootball_history1.htm
HOME What follows is an excerpt from a book I started to write several years ago, a history of the World Football League. I set it aside because I had other things that came up, and I've never gotten back to it. PRO FOOTBALL - THE EARLY DAYS... By Hugh Wyatt Professional football's roots go back to the 1890's, when assorted town teams in Western Pennsylvania and Ohio decided to beef up their rosters by paying "ringers" - hired outsiders, who were usually good college players. The practice grew to the point where it was not unusual for a talented college player to play in his college games on Saturday, then hire himself out the next day, playing for a town team under an assumed name in order to preserve his amateur status and his college eligibility. College then was for the privileged few, and college football, for all its roughness, was somewhat like English rugby - "a hooligan's game played by gentlemen." Professional football, on the other hand, became a working man's game, played in mining and factory towns. As a small town, blur-collar version of football, pro football was largely ignored by the more sophisticated big-city newspapers, devoted as they and their readers were to the far more popular college game. At a time when the average laborer worked a six-day week, professional football was a game for the day off - from its earliest days, pro football became the Sunday game.

    Suzanne Lenglen and the First Pro Tour
    Ray Bowers It was late summer 1926. International tennis was thriving, contributing its flair and substance to what would become known as the Golden Age of Sport. At the pinnacle of world tennis were the three great national championshipsWimbledon, the U.S. Nationals at Forest Hills, and the French championships on clay, which had been opened to non-French players in 1925 and were already recognized as a premier event. Meanwhile the annual Davis Cup competition equalled, perhaps surpassed, these events in general interest worldwide, while British and American women competed annually for the Wightman Cup. Two superstars ruled over the times. At the top of the world rankings in every year 1920-1925 had been the American William Tilden, who led the U.S. to annual Davis Cup triumphs throughout the period. Meanwhile, the French champion Suzanne Lenglen captured six Wimbledons starting in 1919. The only woman of comparable ability was the American champion Helen Wills, six years younger, who lost to Lenglen narrowly in their classic lone meeting, in the final at Cannes in 1926.

    History of the Pro Tennis Wars,
    Chapter 2, part 2: 1929-1930
    Ray Bowers (Continued from last month's column.)
    DEJA VU - 1929
    The European backcourt artist Karel Kozeluh and the American attacker Vincent Richards remained atop the pro tennis scene for the next two years, 1929 and 1930. Kozeluh again claimed the winter tournament on the Riviera, held in January 1929 at Beaulieu Tennis Club. Richards was not present. The young French player Ramillon made his way to the semis but then fell to Kozeluh, 6-0, 6-4, 6-4. D. R. Stuart wrote that the experience was disheartening for the younger player but it was Ramillon "who looks most likely to beat Kozeluh some day." In the other semi, Albert Burke and Najuch staged their usual struggle. Burke won, 10-8 in the fifth set. Stuart politely noted that Najuch had gotten his weight down, but another writer, from London's Times, affirmed that "Najuch's service was bad and he frequently double-faulted." The next day Burke, who was tired from his ordeal with Najuch, lost quickly to the now three-time champion, Kozeluh.

    Astrid Julian
    L ike Candide, Astrid Julian was born in a bucolic Westphalian valley. Hopefully, that's where the similarity ends. A transatlantic ocean voyage transported her to the snows of Edmonton , Alberta. She began school in Red Deer (the place where the last surviving woman on Earth was spotted buying supplies in Racoona Sheldon's "The Screwfly Solution") and appeared on the front page of the Red Deer Advocate for colouring a picture of Sparky, the Fire Dog.
    A fter being told by a well-meaning teacher that only heretics believe that man is descended from the apes, and after being told by a well-meaning father that heretics were burned at the stake for religious unorthodoxy, she began a brief flirtation with religion. Oops! Another similarity with Candide. Well, three weeks of coloring pictures at Sunday School later, an auto-da-fe would have been a nice change of pace. For a much more interesting story of religion in Alberta, check out William Perry Shunn's webpage.
