  • 2013 Syndicate Directory
    2013 Syndicate Directory NEW FEATURES CUSTOM SERVICES EDITORIAL COMICS POLITICAL CARTOONS What’s New in 2013 by Norman Feuti Meet Gil. He’s a bit of an underdog. He’s a little on the chubby side. He doesn’t have the newest toys or live in a fancy house. His parents are split up – his single mother supports them with her factory job income and his father isn’t around as often as a father ought to be. Gil is a realistic and funny look at life through the eyes of a young boy growing up under circumstances that are familiar to millions of American families. And cartoonist Norm Feuti expertly crafts Gil’s world in a way that gives us all a good chuckle. D&S From the masterminds behind Mobilewalla, the search, discovery and analytics engine for mobile apps, comes a syndicated weekly column offering readers both ratings and descriptions of highly ranked, similarly themed apps.

  • 2008 Erik Axel Karlfeldt Memorial Open Round 6
    2008 Erik Axel Karlfeldt Memorial Open Round 6 1. One instance of this type of event which involved Matt Prater decided the 2005 Aloha Bowl between Nevada and UCF. In 2004, a game-deciding instance of this by Ryan Gaudet was nullified by a penalty, one week after Alexis Serna did it three times against Gaudet’s team. LSU won both those games, defeating Auburn and Oregon State. Perhaps more famously, a Jerome Pathon touchdown, scored after laterals from Donte Stallworth and Deuce McAllister, was made meaningless when John Carney did this, giving a 20-19 victory to the Jaguars over the Saints. FTP, name this rare football feat, which results in only six points being awarded for a touchdown. ANSWER: missed extra point (accept equivalents; do not accept “blocked extra points”) 2. A rapper of this name put out such tracks as “Murder Makes Mo Mail” on his 1996 album De Vallejo. The title of a recent book on American culture by R. Jay Magill, Jr. refers to this kind of chic bitterness. Better known is a song of this name, which was sandwiched between two songs by Oasis as a Billboard number one single. That song details the flight of “Mr. Play it Safe” and remarks that “life has a funny way of sneaking up on you.” It speaks of such events as a “Black fly in your chardonnay” and a “No smoking sign on your cigarette break,” which are erroneously said to exemplify the title concept. FTP, name this Alanis Morissette song that complains of occurrences such as “rain on your wedding day.” ANSWER: “Ironic” 3.
