You’ve already seen the video of Elizabeth Lambert’s on-pitch throw-down versus the Cougars of BYU this week, and now the violence has spread all the way to Rhode Island.  The state high school championship game between the Woonsocket Villa Novans and the Tolman Tigers turned into Kenilworth Road, American Style, after a bump between Woonsocket’s Kristen Cahill and Tolman’s Maria Lopera turned into a full-fledged Royal Rumble melee.  Not only did the violence ensue on the pitch, this time it spread into the crowd, where there was a violent altercation between Woonsocket and Tolman fans in the stands!

I know tensions can run high between athletes on the field of play, but I never figured that there’d be any violence between fans of high school girls soccer in Rhode Island.  Yes, Tolman did get beaten pretty badly in the game, but that’s no excuse for Tolman fans to give beatings to the Woonsocket side, or vice versa.  People are losing their minds! It’s like someone slipped crazy juice in the water supply lately.

It’s kind of a dreary, wet day here.  I’m not feeling my best, I’m having a bad day at work, and quite frankly, I could use a pick-me-up.  Thankfully, MLW Photography has put together an incredible slideshow video detailing a walk through Manhattan’s beautiful and famous Central Park set to the song “Life in Technicolor […]

Roopa Gulati from the Good Food channel wanted some enduring image that would remind people that food can be fun. Fruit and vegetables are the core of a good diet, to be sure, but there’s nothing fun about asparagus or celery or melons.  That’s why he turned to Carl Warner and a team of designers […]

In the wee hours of the morning on November 1, four men hailed a cab after a party.  On their way to their destination, one of the light-fingered men supposedly tried to rob the hack.  Incensed, he pulled over at a gas station and ordered the men to pay up and get out of the […]

It’s fitting that, on the day after the birthday of the Marine Corps, that we honor veterans worldwide.  No matter if you call it Veterans Day, Armistice Day, or Remembrance Day,  the important thing is that we all honor those who fought and died for our freedoms, and those who continue to fight and die […]

There have been Roomba Pac-Mans before, but never one quite like this.  Using five Roombas, special software codes, and a whole lot of time, three students have designed a live-action, 3-D version of Pac-Man.  The ghosts chase Pac-Roomba, which is controlled by joystick.  When the Pac-Roomba hits one of the power pellets that allows him […]

This is simply beautiful.  Just what I needed on a Monday morning.  The soothing combination of Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman’s beautiful song, Time to Say Goodbye, and the beautiful sight of the tallest fountain in the world’s powerful sprayers set to lights and music in a graceful dance of H20 and music.

That fountain, with […]
