Bobby Petrino: Coaching Mercenary

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="MsoNormal">Holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa y’all! It’s yet another cold snowy, sleety, shitty night here in Rendneckville, but apparently is a warm and exciting in Louisville, Kentucky! Former UofL, and Arkansas football coach Bobby Petrino is returning to where his legendary coaching career really took off and will once again be the head football coach of the Cardinals. Those folks at Louisville are good, decent and forgiving people. Well, either that or they’re like a battered wife who keeps taking her abusive husband back. I’m not totally sure. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiPO7L4wYJWDR2WBDmI9H89KLeTrnD2LiUicRIG08lVlnS-hNPu0YsVFo2h2UC-UavymVyKPVbRzNyYq7nOJ5J1meQFBaFrYleSE-xIAGk28K_IijWp6E9WXB5VjptExaeL3mVwxD3TupK/s1600/Bobby+Petrino+Asshole+Scumbag+Sleezy+Cheater.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiPO7L4wYJWDR2WBDmI9H89KLeTrnD2LiUicRIG08lVlnS-hNPu0YsVFo2h2UC-UavymVyKPVbRzNyYq7nOJ5J1meQFBaFrYleSE-xIAGk28K_IijWp6E9WXB5VjptExaeL3mVwxD3TupK/s1600/Bobby+Petrino+Asshole+Scumbag+Sleezy+Cheater.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"><o:p><br /></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Let’s take a look at Petrino’s qualifications for the job … <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- While head coach of the Louisville Cardinals he racked up a 41-9 record, led them to four bowl games including a BCS bowl! <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- While head coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks he cleaned up the mess left by Houston Nutt and was 21-5 in his last two seasons including a win in the Cotton Bowl and an appearance in the Sugar Bowl. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- In his one season at Western Kentucky he led the Hilltoppers to a respectable 10-2 record. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Wow! That is impressive! If you also include his years as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at various big time colleges and NFL teams you can see that Louisville got themselves one hell of a coach. But, what ELSE is on his resume? <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- After his second season as offensive coordinator for Jacksonville, Petrino “disappeared” a day or so after the season ended. Nobody knew where he was or what he was doing. The next day they all found out he had taken the offensive coordinator position at the University of Auburn without telling anyone. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- In 2003 when Petrino was the first year head coach at Louisville he secretly met with officials from Auburn University. They discussed their plans to oust AU head coach Tommy Tuberville and bring him in as the head coach. The meeting was found out and the coup fell apart and Petrino had to go on the apology circuit. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- In 2004 Petrino secretly met with people from Florida, Mississippi and Notre Dame about their open coaching positions. None of the jobs panned out and he assured everyone he didn’t want to be anywhere but Louisville so they have him a new five year contract. Five days later he secretly met with LSU about their coaching job which eventually went to Les Miles. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- In the summer of 2006 Petrino signed a 10 year $25 million dollar contract with Louisville. In January of ’08, just six days after the Orange Bowl, he left Louisville for the Atlanta Falcons. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- With three games left in a miserable first season in Atlanta, Petrino informed owner Arthur Blank that he was resigning and said goodbye to the other coaches. He then got on a plane and flew to Fayetteville, Arkansas where he was introduced as the new head coach of the Razorbacks. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">- On April 1 2012, Petrino was in a serious motorcycle accident. After insisting for several days that he was alone in the accident, he finally admitted that he had a rider on his bike. The rider was 25 year old Jessica Dorrell, who he admitted to having an “inappropriate relationship” with. A few days later we all found out that Jessica had also recently been hired into a position within the UofA’s athletic department which answered directly to Petrino. We also found out that she had no qualifications for this position and all other candidates who were passed over were all very qualified.  Oh, and Petrino had also giving Dorrell, who was engaged, a $20,000 “gift.” So, the UofA fired understandably fired him. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi08YSziqH633invZgoRIxR4NxuIBJJw5ZDBesam1DMufHktv_jxjSFZhBsdwXTWtfl-gHECHhl5sxmrjuXSI9zzAR_s_uXsKpg0IgVz6G7tJR5VNVpf051_Ck1Lw_gMniMvnh7LcOzjSAL/s1600/Bobby+Petrino+Injuries+Arkansas.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="226" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi08YSziqH633invZgoRIxR4NxuIBJJw5ZDBesam1DMufHktv_jxjSFZhBsdwXTWtfl-gHECHhl5sxmrjuXSI9zzAR_s_uXsKpg0IgVz6G7tJR5VNVpf051_Ck1Lw_gMniMvnh7LcOzjSAL/s1600/Bobby+Petrino+Injuries+Arkansas.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"><o:p><br /></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Woo-Weeeee!

I’m sure you guys are all reassuring each other with statements like “Bobby knows he can’t screw up again” or “Bobby knows he has to straighten up and fly right” and other bullshit. Just admit that you put winning above all else and enjoy all the wins Petrino will bring you. Even though I know you will, please try not to act surprised when he fucks you guys over a second time.

Goodbye Folk Art, Hello "Art Bay"

In an unfortunate but not surprising move, MoMA's architects for their latest expansion, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, have announced that they just couldn't save the 2001 Folk Art Museum designed by Tod Williams and Billie Tsien. <a href="http://archpaper.com/news/articles.asp?id=7026">Liz Diller said</a>, "after intensive study it became clear that the building could not be adapted without compromising its integrity."<br /><br /><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiujFgWrhQRrBOfFRHMUmEZOMQjrKq4FME19wqQFET4v_n_6x-SThjrrD78GYlh-U5hHTjVqE9i9B6-s61KXZgXqiSVm4Lag6BHrqcRnh7FHS8LZApFItGOzBBnDMi8XQ0RKSKgj41AWyAr/s1600/1.jpg" /><br />[Rendering by Diller Scofidio + Renfro]<br /><br />The site of the Folk Art Museum will become a large space at street level – an "Art Bay" that serves as a multi-use space – with a "Gray Box" theater/gallery above. As seen in the rendering above, this space appears to make MoMA more inviting on West 53rd Street, but such is indicative of a plan that tries to extend but also improve the 2004 building of Yoshio Taniguchi rather than make any concessions to the little gem that stood in its way.<br /><br /><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLZ_XZljd6ebZSyVgAB-v3JMb8hWek7t5Wgsg9W2V5g_Gfeeg1GbWPQquPzL77yMuiwOHlmx5WsheEmpx4_OkiZU8rNEOd69UpyUSTAZlTsdKeH3KtDVNTm_l7imtQA-w1UCzfuH2NftLN/s1600/2.jpg" /><br />[Rendering by Diller Scofidio + Renfro]<br /><br /><br />The new entrance to the sculpture garden on West 54th Street is commendable, but it should be seen as part of the larger plan (below) that places the emphasis on circulation over anything else. It seems like MoMA has been trying to overcome the poor circulation that has accompanied its growth, beginning with Cesar Pelli's escalator atrium and continuing with Taniguchi's circuitous route from the entrance to the galleries above.<br /> <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjM-af-L9LfY4dJv7aEoYMT1-TCE7kDjXzY5N9zrEQ5J4yg3RiqoO-GinI3bKZuxPDw4XRyb9L78NkxpcbWOijivbeALX3SFLT6hMIdo7LXyXOwEtXqJvIP7dMhrqAmSMW1JcwWznYknekN/s1600/4.jpg" /><br />[Diagram by Diller Scofidio + Renfro]<br /><br />Given the two spaces – Art Bay and Gray Box – that will take over the galleries of the Folk Art Museum, the result of the DS+R design comes down to scale and flexibility. Ultimately the Williams Tsien design was too small and inflexible (like I said, not a surprising move) to work for MoMA, regardless of Diller's specious words about integrity. As sustainability and the need to preserve buildings increases, so does the need to be creative about how buildings are reused. In this case the creativity is nowhere to be seen.<br /><br /><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdMGCPbCyTnK3cZIskRDtijlfkaYY164UiT8-AgU1M6P9D4A6cWQ4NnhvuypMKD9PUBzWwHC2dCHDenKunmAivj436dKtk2Mbl-iNHYrVnQPVJJnXKP2TxtQglnm9IzYTMR_IYhyoiFVTR/s1600/TWBTA_Folk-Art.jpg" /><br />[Tod Williams Billie Tsien letter via <a href="http://archrecord.construction.com/news/2014/01/140108-Folk-Art-Museum-Decision-Diller-Scofidio-Renfro.asp">Architectural Record</a>]

This is a must read for anyone who has been concerned about the rampant trampling of our Fourth Amendment Protections and an eye opening look from inside the NSA on how they and their political protectors have absolutely misrepresented and covered up their botched intelligence gathering since BEFORE the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001.<br /><br />How we and especially Congress and the President himself have been lied to, repeatedly.<br /><br />This is a plea from some former NSA insiders to speak to the President and set the record straight, to point out the lies and to suggest workable fixes to the NSA and it's intelligence gathering techniques.<br /><br />It is a long read but it points fingers at people that we knew were lying and the politicians who were covering for these liars.<br /><br />I highly recommend reading this for yourself and bringing it to the attention of other Americans.<br /><br />It is a rare thing these days for someone to have the integrity and honesty enough to finally try to help make our government work the way it is supposed to and my hat is off to these gentlemen.<br /><br />Of course their chances of ever getting to sit down with President Obama and go through all of this are about the same as having the winning numbers for next weeks Powerball drawing.<br /><br />This is why it needs to be disseminated as far and wide as possible, to deny these perpetrators of Constitutional violations the ability to continue to hide behind the lies that have allowed them to trample our rights and help this country slide into a state of absolute tyranny.<br /><a href="http://consortiumnews.com/2014/01/07/nsa-insiders-reveal-what-went-wrong/"><br />Here is the link</a> and a brief introductory sample of the letter sent to President Obama yesterday.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><blockquote>January 7, 2014<br /><br />MEMORANDUM FOR: The President<br /><br />FROM: Former NSA Senior Executives/Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS)<br /><br />SUBJECT: Input for Your Decisions on NSA<br /><br />EXECUTIVE SUMMARY<br /><br />Official Washington – from Senate Intelligence Committee chair Dianne Feinstein to NSA Director Keith Alexander to former Vice President Dick Cheney to former FBI Director Robert Mueller – has been speaking from the same set of NSA talking points acquired recently via a Freedom of Information request. It is an artful list, much of it designed to mislead. Take this one, for example:<br /><br />– NSA AND ITS PARTNERS MUST MAKE SURE WE CONNECT THE DOTS SO THAT THE NATION IS NEVER ATTACKED AGAIN LIKE IT WAS ON 9/11nationalsecurityagency<br /><br />At a hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee on October 2, Senator Feinstein showed her hand when she said: “I will do everything I can to prevent this [NSA’s bulk] program from being canceled.” Declaring that 9/11 “can never be allowed to happen in the United States of America again,” Feinstein claimed that intelligence officials did not have enough information to prevent the terrorist attacks.<br /><br />Mr. President, we trust you are aware that the lack-of-enough-intelligence argument is dead wrong. Feinstein’s next dubious premise – that bulk collection is needed to prevent another 9/11 – is unproven and highly unlikely (not to mention its implications for the privacy protections of the Fourth Amendment).<br /><br />Given the closed circle surrounding you, we are allowing for the possibility that the smell from these rotting red herrings has not yet reached you – even though your own Review Group has found, for example, that NSA’s bulk collection has thwarted exactly zero terrorist plots.<br /><br />The sadder reality, Mr. President, is that NSA itself had enough information to prevent 9/11, but chose to sit on it rather than share it with the FBI or CIA. We know; we were there. We were witness to the many bureaucratic indignities that made NSA at least as culpable for pre-9/11 failures as are other U.S. intelligence agencies.<br /><br />We prepared this Memorandum in an effort to ensure that you have a fuller picture as you grapple with what to do about NSA. What follows is just the tip of an iceberg of essential background information – much of it hidden until now – that goes to the core of serious issues now front and center.</blockquote><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://consortiumnews.com/2014/01/07/nsa-insiders-reveal-what-went-wrong/">Go read the whole thing and get pissed off.</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

how did i do - 2013 review

So we can't get started on the new year without seeing how I did last year, right? It's always fun to see if your December 2013 self was in tune with your January 2013 self - did I get anything done or not? So with that said, may I have the envelope please.<br /><br />My <a href="http://news-these-days.blogspot.com/2013/01/2013-goals.html" target="_blank">2013 goals</a> were:<br /><br />1. <a href="http://news-these-days.blogspot.com/2013/10/freshening-foyer-finale.html" target="_blank"><b>Entry Refresh</b></a> - Wahoo! We are off to a good start. It may have taken me a while (I started in June and finished in...October) and I did have to <a href="http://news-these-days.blogspot.com/2013/06/freshening-foyer-part-2.html" target="_blank">redo the entire stencil</a>, (sometimes I guess it pays to read the directions) but it <a href="http://news-these-days.blogspot.com/2013/10/freshening-foyer-finale.html" target="_blank">turned out even better</a> than I had envisioned and now it's fresh and bright and a jolly little welcome to our little home.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHTpyFS76vTe0O4ypIZAEK8SVaZ4ZzXIhKXWPONjgpuUSso3sMzqxwZQM0Dtu-wYPUZK4whVqQv5J4DhNP9xAhwFlPmQQyKda9Mp51-ePbGwiM1yWsPaHfkNBjOOjCkteQSwqdZgj2PNir/s1600/GreenStenciledEntryStarPendant.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHTpyFS76vTe0O4ypIZAEK8SVaZ4ZzXIhKXWPONjgpuUSso3sMzqxwZQM0Dtu-wYPUZK4whVqQv5J4DhNP9xAhwFlPmQQyKda9Mp51-ePbGwiM1yWsPaHfkNBjOOjCkteQSwqdZgj2PNir/s1600/GreenStenciledEntryStarPendant.jpg" width="321" /></a></div><br />2. <b>Sew something.

I rocked this one like a hurricane for the <a href="http://news-these-days.blogspot.com/2013/11/one-room-challenge-week-6-aka-reveal.html" target="_blank">One Room Challenge</a> in November. It is amazing what confidence a looming deadline will give you. I had just days to go before the big reveal and I was staring at a pile of fabric and no pillows, so I bit my lip and gave it a go. I will say that the intimidation factor is squarely on that damn machine. Actually sewing a pillow is pretty simple, its that blasted bobbin that gets me. Every.

This was one of my favorite projects of the year and I'm happy to say the room still looks largely the same - just with the addition of a thick layer of clothes, toys and naked barbies strewn on the floor.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLM_OdOPEE3tIgFOICX12-H0y4pG9BOa7VMC_Ey4F7dP2Dl10Qm0TBuQxjCgVhJxVbPrvr_Q374HYKBNfSbECulpU6lq3PEECiyV_JQ4VFzxx219KSlJzwhKmLgIRCvuuCFon6V5i4kj0k/s1600/GirlsRoomWideShot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="390" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLM_OdOPEE3tIgFOICX12-H0y4pG9BOa7VMC_Ey4F7dP2Dl10Qm0TBuQxjCgVhJxVbPrvr_Q374HYKBNfSbECulpU6lq3PEECiyV_JQ4VFzxx219KSlJzwhKmLgIRCvuuCFon6V5i4kj0k/s1600/GirlsRoomWideShot.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />4. <b>Bathroom Redo.</b> This one is a mixed bag.

I have more plans and more work to do this year, so we will call this one 'under progress'.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiu-HB_HGj_faiNzel3mdB_aa1-8YVO1QdbvwSxJTbfnFwg5jD8RPa2mfORZ023PQbp4MuV4zqmlEEl_z5QKtgMdifH_vLGZhqyLvp6AfFFE4jV-aPdJBUaC2t6weZwFErpxYWjAy6gcir/s1600/ClientWork.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="277" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiu-HB_HGj_faiNzel3mdB_aa1-8YVO1QdbvwSxJTbfnFwg5jD8RPa2mfORZ023PQbp4MuV4zqmlEEl_z5QKtgMdifH_vLGZhqyLvp6AfFFE4jV-aPdJBUaC2t6weZwFErpxYWjAy6gcir/s1600/ClientWork.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br />So all in all, not so bad for old Elizabeth. And I'll tell you, this has gotten me motivated for 2014. I'm ready to get working! And I'll share those plans tomorrow.<br /><br />So how about you? How did you do with last years goals? Do you make any years goals for yourself, your business, your home?

It's a sure thing! Coming any decade to a country near you! I assume that the advice is intended for the long-term, and not just some short-term unsustainable cyclical bounce. I therefore offer a two-step program to get us there.<br /><br /><div style="color: red;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Steps Needed</b></span></div><br /><div style="color: red;">1. Get back in the cone!</div><br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/EAgEyDAEBfg" width="420"></iframe><br /><br /><div style="color: red;">2.

Do not concern yourself that we aren't making any progress towards completing the first step. The second step is bound to be easier. Once the cone goes on, how hard can it be to get the cone off and run free? There I go, thinking as a dog again. Always the optimist!<br /><br /><b>The future's so bright I gotta get coned! Yes! Genius!</b><br /><br />As a side note, you'll be happy to know that the dog in the photo made a full recovery. I just wish the same could be said for our economy.<br /><br />Once again, this is not investment advice. I'm simply suggesting that some sure things are not quite as sure as many seem to believe (whether it be getting in cones or escaping from them). But what's new?<br /><br /><b>Source Data:</b><br /><a href="http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/graph/?g=qI2">St. Louis Fed: Custom Chart</a>
