Weekend at Burney’s (1)
onIt took me 30 minutes to come up with that headline. Anyway, I’ve said before that the basketball team’s season will come down to Vasquez. And I still believe that. He’s the emotional center of the team and its best overall player (warts and all), and his development as a true two instead of a combo point guard, his mentoring of the young guys, and the keeping down of his own mistakes are crucial to ...Shared by brien (0)Contribute comment

The Atlantis Palm Resort, with over 1,500 rooms, will be hosting an opening ceremony with celebrities from around the world tomorrow night. The rapid development in Dubai and across the UAE hasn't all been easy lately, as infrastructure problems (handling rising levels of waste to match massive development), and world financial struggles have slowed progress.

Fortunately for me, tonight I was able to enjoy the Maryland Basketball ball game tonight from the 4th row, center court, in the middle of the student section at the Comcast Center. Maryland defeated Youngstown State tonight, 73-45, in front of a sparse crowd at the Comcast Center, completing their 2nd victory of the season. The start of the game was delayed nearly 10 minutes after a problem with both the scoreboard and shot clocks ...Shared by brien (0)Contribute comment -

It Never Rains in College Park (0) permalink
In case you missed it, the Maryland men found success in their first game of the season. They shot down the Bucknell Bison convincingly, winning 81-52.It highlighted some of the ideas I talked about in the preview, but solidified some other issues I wondered about before everyone was healthy and on the floor. I'm going to approach this with the mindset that there is no "bad" stuff, just "not-so-good" stuff.THE GOOD STUFF- Landon Milbourne and ...Shared by brien (0)Contribute comment -

California wildfires (yet again) (PICS) (104)
onSeveral wildfires raged throughout Southern California this weekend, in the hills surrounding Los Angeles, burning some 35,000 acres (55 sq mi) and destroying around 1,000 homes as California's Fire Season extends toward becoming a year-round condition. Dry Santa Ana winds of up to 70 mph drove flames and embers across valleys and into neighborhoods, in some cases burning only a few homes, in others, wiping out entire communities.
