SDBoltReport.com's Michael Lombardo and Michael Kranzler continue with a series of debates centered on the 2008 Chargers. This issue's jumping-off point: Who is the most underrated player on the roster? Lombardo goes to bat for a physical defensive veteran, while Kranzler sings the praises of a core special-teams player.
If there was any wine grape capable of fulfilling my 20-year-old vision of ‘a decent wine at a decent price’ (let’s say Rs 150 per bottle), it would be Chenin Blanc (pronounced Shay-naN BlaN) — the most underrated white wine grape in the world.
From its origins in the Loire (pronounced Lwahr) Valley in north-west France, [...]
How does THIS stuff not get more press? I’d hand her my baton (thanks to bunlover for the photos)
About the only female that gets any kind of recognition in the collegiate world of Track and Field is the cutie known as Allison Stokke. But have we even stopped to appreciate all that is the track and field uniform?
Can we at least acknowledge that the most common used term for the bottom half of

I just read an article on Computer World that I thought I’d share called “The top 25 overlooked and underrated features in Leopard.” As I looked at the list in the article, I discovered some of the features that I have overlooked and one, I discovered by accident.
The feature that I discovered by [...]
Controlling panic attacksIn a recent interview, Madonna revealed that she still gets panic attacks on stage.Now, you might be thinking that if even a performer with her experience still panics after a quarter of a century of superstardom, then what hope is there for me?But then we are not performing as part of a multi-million pound tour where we are expected to remember and deliver outstanding songs and dance routines while knowing that every second we are up there, the world's critics are scrutinising us for any sign of weakness as we grow older.Madonna has her own techniques for dealing with her panic. I am now going to enlarge on one of the suggestions on my Thomas's Twelve Tips for Terrified Speakers web page which can help you if you get really nervous at a speaking engagement. I was

The Power Of One: The Best Underrated MovieBy: Corinne EckelPut yourself in South Africa during the Apartheid, 1930 to 1948. Picture an English boy named PK, who is brought up by his mother, his Zulu nanny, a German musician named Doc and an African prisoner, Geel Piet (Morgan Freeman).Everyone he loves keeps leaving him. He is surrounded by conflict between the Afrikaners (Dutch, French and German descendants who don’t get along with each other) and the original African people (who are ostracized by everyone else). Every day he is faced with segregation, violence and unfair laws against those he loves and respects. And to top it off, he is the central figure in a Zulu myth that he is the Rain Maker, the man to cool things down when there is conflict.The first half of the movie is the mo
Last time in Internet Marketing for Newbies I explained basic techniques you need to know about in order to start with successful promotion of your site. Now I am going to continue with a series of articles that will focus on using less known methods of gaining high quality links to your site.Using internet bookmarking sitesInternet bookmarking sites allow you to create an account to manage all your online bookmarks.Of course nothing stops you from bookmarking your own site. That effectively means that when you create such a bookmark and make it public you have just created a free link to your website using title text (anchor text) that you want. This is different from leaving a story post at social media sites because these links are yours to control and you can do whatever you want with
Hawks. It’s always a thrill to see one alight on the hydro cables at the side of the highway, and an even bigger thrill to see it swoop down for the kill.
The phrase, “There’s many a slip between cup and lip.” (Even more fun if you say, “There’s many a slip betwixt cup and lip.”) “Six of one, half dozen of the other” is also fun, but since there are more opportunities to work it into
As prolific as the J-pop band surface is, it seems like they don’t have many fans out there. They’ve done ending themes for D.Gray-man and Yakitate!! Japan, as well as some OPs and EDs for other anime. Their non-anime music is good as well; one of my favorite tracks is ‘Trigger Finger’ from the same [...]
One of my all-time favorite artists today...If you ask me, Meat Beat Manifesto, a.k.a. Mr. Jack Dangers and his collaborators du jour, is one of the most criminally underappreciated acts in all of electronica, at least by the mainstream. Dude's been at it for like 20 years, from his early industrial dance phase all the way up to his most recent experiments with dub, live musicians... hell, you name it. And no one ever has been a more amazing sampler. But do you ever hear him mentioned by, like, anybody? Except for the headz, hardly ever. So give my boy some love and check this track from his 2-disc masterpiece Subliminal Sandwich... Meat Beat Manifesto - Future WorldsAnd that shit is over a decade old. Dude has been ahead of time for long time, still is today. And since you haven't had much YouTubes lovin' lately, here's a vid from their most recent tour, which got into some serious video mixing along with the tunes... like, videos of every sample source mixed live with the
Consider this: all of India receives just the same number of visitors in a year as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan. According to A.R. Ghanashyam, India’s Deputy Consul General based in New York, India receives just five million international tourists per year, most of them making predictable journeys to tourist icons like the Taj Mahal.

Nutless brownies. My sweet tooth was making what I thought to be a fairly reasonable demand last night for something somewhat gooey and very yummy, but not too complicated. Although I was pretty tired I decided to give in to the sweet tooth’s demands. (Okay, so I had to go to the store anyway for a few things and decided to pick something up while I was there.) When I got to the store I headed to the bakery in search of something brownie-ish or cheesecake-ish. They get so creative with brownies these days, don’t they? German chocolate brownies, cream cheese brownies, triple chocolate fudge brownies…all covered with nuts. I don’t like nuts on my brownies. There’s a rule book out there somewhere that commands all brownies sold in bakeries shall be covered with nuts; someone needs to find and destroy said rule book, is all I’m saying. I ended up going to the freezer section and buying a pan of ready-to-bake brownie mix from Duncan Hines and a bottl

Just Blaze gives Black Milk respect on his blog in a recent post.
Speakin of Popular Demand, go pick up that Black Milk album out now. (Hey kid I’m a computer.. stop all the downloadin! No GI Joe) I had the pleasure of choppin it up and doing some crate digging with dude overseas a few months back. Had no idea he was responsible for some of my favorite later Slum records until a few hours later. Very understated, and quite underrated. Cool dude.. and makes some good music.
FUN FACT #2: He bought the record he used to make this while we were digging in Australia. He bought like 8 records.. i bought like 80.. still don’t think I’ve found anything as dope as this in that stack yet.. ARGH
WWW at BallerStatus posts his list of underrated emcees in a new post and this is what he has to say about two Detroit artists.
Royce Da 5′9 -– Royce… one of my favorite underrated MCs. One of my favorite MCs, period. Nas digs dude’s skills too. I could tell you what makes him underrated, but ask your little brother or sister if they heard of Royce Da 5′9. Here, watch this video. I’m going to get something to eat. (*link to Royce’s “Hip Hop” video)
Obie Trice -– I’m going to tell you hip-hop fans something real right now. Let me screw y’all into some shit. This dude Obie can spit like there’s no fucking tomorrow. Got Some Teeth earned some laughs, but this dude is one real MC. Not a rapper an MC. Obie is sick. The guy is clever and highly lyrical. Oh yes, BallerStatus been knowing dude is nice. “Baby I’m extra large (huge) in magnitude / And Magnums to lubrication that I use / To chose which hole
Usually when we see a list of underrated safeties, it usually involves the Jets with Kerry Rhodes. However, according to KC Joyner of ESPN.com, Jets strong safety Erik Coleman is on the overrated list. Here is what Joyner has to say on Coleman being overrated.
Erik Coleman: Coleman tends to be mentioned in the same breath as Kerry Rhodes because he plays in the same secondary, but his 44.7 percent success percentage was the fifth worst among coverage safeties last year.
…That’s a tough pill to swallow. I never thought I would see Coleman on a list of overrated safeties. He will be in a heated training camp and preseason battle with Jets third-round selection in 2006, Eric Smith. Coleman didn’t perform up to expectations and Smith might just be there to take the job from him come week 1…
Until last week, nobody gave anybody on the Cavs credit for anything. Last week LeBron James was finally given some credit for singlehandedly winning game 5 and leading the Cavs to the NBA Finals, but what about his teammates? They have been largely ignored—except when showered with missed 20 footer jokes—and the commonly held view is that LeBron was able to reach the Finals in spite of his teammates rather than because of them (Daniel Gibson being the exception).
Well, it’s about time the Cavs supporting cast got some positive recognition. Cleveland is now 12-4 in the playoffs and they just won a series in which few people gave them a chance. LeBron has topped 32 points only twice this post-season and one of his teammates has lead the team in scoring four times (the Cavs are 2-2 in those games). At 26 ppg, LeBron is scoring less than he did in the regular season despite playing four minutes more per game. All these numbers point to the fact that his teammates
I didn’t know who in the world is this lady until quite recently when her picture appears on the cover of GLAM, Malaysian, high fashion magazine. Then again it never went beyond my second look. Let alone flipping through the pages to uncover the supposed to be hot and steamy inside story. A few days later, while browsing Malaysian internet pages, there again pictures of her looking at as if saying “notice me pleaaaase”. Well here you go laydeeh..Looking at her other pictures, you can see that she’s quite a catch..haha papers say she’s still married to Zakaria Rahman and has 2 kids, Naveer Mihshon, 12, and Nur Erysha Emyra,7…Some teledrama/movie to her credits are Laila Sari and Fanatik..anyhow..here are some of the pictures that I found and people, she can sing and was in Asia Bagus long time ago.

Eric Clapton has always been one of my favorite artists. Although I do prefer his earlier works, there have been some great songs throughout his career. It has been a career sprinkled with heavy drug addiction, alcoholism, some controversy, and many different bands and groups, but it is also full of great music and guitar playing.
I thought it would be appropriate to do some sort of tribute to Eric Clapton today as today is his birthday, so I thought I would put together a list of ten underrated songs spanning his career as well as a little bit about why I like them. Some were singles and are pretty well known, while others might not be (at least be the casual fan). Overall the list doesn’t contain any massive hits (no “Sunshine of Your Love” or “Layla”) but each is one of my favorite songs that Eric Clapton has performed throughout his career.
Old Love – Eric Clapton from Journeyman
As I said in my introduction, I’m a little more fond of Clapton’s ear

Walk up to a typical Red Sox fan, ask them about their favorite player and I will give you a crispy $100 bill if they don't call out a Josh, Manny, or "Big Pappi". If you go the young route, it's Jacoby, Dice-K, and Clay but what about the forgotten ...
