Celebrating Father’s Day Without Dad

My father was everything a girl could hope for-haired, dark, handsome and crazy about me. He held the number one attribute of a little kid my performance: it was a smooth dancer, smiling like a little Mary Janes my scuffed his wing tips. He was a gentle man and gentleman, so kind that he would fall quarter increase in the toll booth collector cart driver in a line behind him.

My father never went to school but I knew he was smart because he never talked to my brother Jack or me in baby talk. "Do not gesture with your utensils," he would say. "Do not yawn audibly!" My dad once said "no" instead of "shall not." No other dad on the block did.

While I idolized my father, I knew my mother first dibs. Dad was so in love with my mother he used to put the rivets in the hat that spelled TGFM, thank God for Mary. Another acronym of his, used to defuse any small family scuffle, the "BD. Teach Daddy." Dad spoiled me what to expect in a man. (Thank God, I lucked out when I met Joe, though I doubt he'll put on baseball caps TGFML him anytime soon.)

When we were young, our family would flee to a tiny cabin in South Jersey Lake-no hot water or shower, and enjoy our very own outhouse. After dinner, we all sit on the beat up red couch on screened porch. Dad would put arms around us and we would all belt out "You are My Sunshine" and "I've been working on the railroad." But when my dad put in "Carolina Moon," we do not become so just let him sing the night stars in the croon-y Perry Como his style. My mother would hold his hand and smile.

Year after year, I watched my dad loves my mom with a passion as she fell ill with a rare blood disease that would eventually take his life.

With her gone, I tried to be a dad. I would visit him every month in Florida and I'm sitting in a recliner next to his mom and we would watch Seinfeld reruns of his favorite. My father had suffered two strokes, so that he does not talk as much, but his vocabulary never slacked off. During a speech therapy practice, I asked him to repeat: "I feel sad" and he can form words, "I ... feel ... Lu-gu-BRI-ouuuusss."

But the MRI revealed something that I could not fix-terminal of the brain and kidney cancer. I brought my dad back north, so Jack and I could help him feel comfortable. One night, after failing miserably trying to give him morphine, I ran out of darkness, crying, "I am his daughter, not his doctor." When I pulled myself together again, he could not hang on the red leather couch set up for the time and now, his long naps. Curled on the couch, almost 92, he looked almost childlike. "Dad, this sofa remind you of our cabin on the lake?" He grinned at the memory. I whispered, "Remember when we used to sing together?" He looked at me and be my dad started to sing, so quietly that I had to bend close to hear. "Carolina Moon, keep shining, shining on the one that awaits me. Carolina Moon, I'm pining, pining for the place I long to be."

Dad was losing my mother. Let him go to her was the hardest I've ever done. Today, the day his father did not make me sad. It brings back memories, only the starry skies, strong his arms around us, his voice clear and strong in the night. I hear it still. I know this for sure. I will always be his girl.

After Chris Brown and Drake - or at least their escorts - sparked a violent brawl between his entourage to New York City club early Thursday, it was widely assumed that the fight ended in a very special lady: Rihanna, Brown's friend and former Drake colleague and speculation hook-up.

Although "We found love" singer was spotted out and about in New York earlier this week that it is not in WIP (where fellow stars like Mary J. Blige, Neyo, Maxwell and others spotted on Thursday night), when a massive fight broke out between Brown and the Drake possess.

NBA conspiracy theories resurface after LeBron-Durant no-call

The hot and Oklahoma City will have two days before Sunday's NBA Finals' Game 3rd No off days, but for sports conspiracy crowd that looks at the NBA the way the John Birch Society looks at the past 70 years.

For conspiracy buffs, the NBA Finals ranks somewhere between a midnight movie showing of Capricorn One and two week holiday at Area 51 Goodyear blimp might as well be a black helicopter. Each official group call, Zapruder film treatment and be ready if such an analysis reveals a questionable call that would fall in line with the prevailing theory of NBA commissioner David Stern as the master puppeteer.

Oh and can I get a witness disappeared about this for Thursday? Played long murmurs that the NBA wanted to make sure at least a five-game series broke into howls when Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant does not get the benefit of a fault call on LeBron James Durant short baseline jumper that could have tied the game in the last seconds. Had they been a receiver and a defensive back down in the NFL, the James drew an illegal contact flag that can say so much about modern NFL serving as NBA playoff whistled.

And what Durant and Serge Ibaka Clean double-block Heat forward Chris Bosh, who had ruled goaltending, gifts two points to the heat? Clear evidence of skullduggery at a crossroads, comes the groans from some message boards and Twitter.

Like the Heat forward Shane Battier sudden improvement from three-point field can only mean one NBA-operative in Butte help each other image using satellite systems league purchased from the former Soviet Union. Is not it obvious?
 

No foul on Durant

All of this ignores that government officials really wanted to bury Oklahoma City, they would have polluted out Durant for a fee, when he crashed into Battier on a fourth quarter drive down the track. Instead, just got the close call right (I did not think Battier had his feet before Durant's start).

Also, if the NBA has been orchestrating things over the years for the benefit of their TV partners, how did San Antonio, the best sports franchise, the U.S. refuses to embrace, ending with four NBA titles in the past 14 seasons? Galactus in the league office can not stop Spurs fantastic four of Parks, Coach Pop, Manu and Tim Duncan?

I know these conspiracy nuts. My sports-loving mother while she lived in Detroit, insisted when Detroit's Bad Boys performed Michael Jordan's Bulls in Game 7 of the 1990 Eastern Conference final on orders from the NBA. Otherwise, my mother is a semi-reasonable person.

Some of this is NBA fault. Their lax security allowed referee Tim Donaghy to do everything he should not get busted for it, then get a platform to feed the Fix is ​​in the crowd. In the NFL, makes an official his house up for sale since the league was not expecting it and he gets a phone call the next day: "Is everything okay with you"

The NBA is facing the unveiling of the draft lottery results for a half hour show, but refuses to show fans the real drama of the balls actually chose. There are people who, trembling hands clung credential holders of tickets and filled Lotto cards, Clocks Lotto numbers drawn into the tube. But the NBA will not show us the simplest event guaranteed to draw ratings.

ESPN Jim Rome asked Stern bluntly this week if the lottery was set. Stern responded by dropping into verbal eye-rolling mode, do funny sport in Rome.

Stern conveniently ignores that make the lottery out of the limelight ensures deep suspicion, no matter how many independent auditors and team representatives see it. Hey, can be in a content reps the farce in accordance with the theorists.

Ridiculous, but ... many years of hoop fans may remember the American Basketball Association used to keep his entire draft in secret because the teams had to cut deals to put the best draw on the best places for each franchise (ie, University of Kentucky star Dan Issel settlement with Kentucky Colonels).

CAVs got top pick

How different does it look from the ever-dying Cleveland suddenly becomes relevant by wrapping up the No. 1 overall pick year everyone knew it would be Akron-born LeBron James? Or former NBA-owned New Orleans gets the No. 1 overall pick months after the New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson takes the team away from the NBA hands.

Of course it is random. Probably. Like the officiating staff ... right? The mass post game reaction puts added fun to the following sports these days. But conspiracy fans beware - they are tracking your keystrokes.

Woods shows grit at U.S. Open and heads to weekend tied with Furyk and Toms

Tiger Woods wore black on Friday. It was the right color for this U.S. Open second round came the mournful mood, more than Olympic Club beat down, beat back and beat the world's best golfer.

It was no surprise that the difficult conditions left Woods (70) tied for the lead is one that David Toms (70), straight-hitting veteran, and Jim Fury (69), a lunch-bucket golfer originally in Western Pennsylvania. Only seven players broke par on Friday. Hunter Hamrick, Alabama who plays college golf, 67 shots. Steve Stricker shot 68 and shot 69 to five.

It's like the old days, right? Tiger in the lead in a major championship. The feeling was there-done-that is justified. Woods has led or tied for the lead after 36 holes in nine previous major championship. They won eight.

In the old days of the reign of Tiger, we would have handed him the trophy, but that does not lose his open just yet. He has two former champions with him there. Fury won the 2003 U.S. Open, Olympia Fields, and the famous Toms edged Phil Mickelson in the 2001 PGA Championship in Atlanta Athletic Club. And do not forget 2010 U.S. Open winner Graeme McDowell, who is just two shots back to John Peterson, Michael Thompson and Nicholas Colsaerts. Tiger top shelf competitors.

This can be a very good weekend.

"This is a wonderful place, a chance to win the National Open," Woods said. "I think a good place. I look forward to."

Kevin Durant powers Oklahoma City Thunder past James LeBron's Miami Heat

Durant scored 17 of his 36 points in another nightmarish final period for James and his team, a storm that overwhelmed the fire, and the 1105-94 Oklahoma City Game1 victory over Miami on Tuesday night.

Teaming Russell Westbrook to outscore the Heat in the second half of their own, Durant was first struck in the head-to-head matchup James, who has seven points in the fourth quarter, and was helpless to stop a three-time league scoring champion.

Westbrook turned a poor-shooting start to finish, 27 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds in the Thunder, encoding a strong finish in the third period gave the Thunder a good leader.

Durant took over from there.

Scoring in almost every way possible, Durant finished 12 of 20 from the field and added eight rebounds. He and Westbrook outscored the Heat 41-40 over the last two periods, shows that maybe this time will be a criminal offense to win championships.

James 30 points out, most all of his 11 finals games, but only one basket in the first 8:15 of the fourth, when the Thunder took control of the game that all towed, but the last few seconds of the first three quarters .

James averaged just three points in the fourth quarter, the Heat six-game loss at Dallas last year, taking all the heat in the Miami final error. He was a good, Durant was just right.

Game 2 on Thursday night in Oklahoma City.

Dwyane Wade had 19 points, but shot just 7 of 19 of the Heat, and Shane Battier provided some rare offense by scoring 17 points, and this is the high season.

Coming to the end of a small lineup in the third quarter, the Thunder improved to 9-0 at home season. Defensive ace Thabo Sefolosha helped defend during the return of James Thunder, Durant reducing the burden, so he could concentrate on scoring.

And now, nobody does it better.

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said his team, pushed seven games against Boston in a grueling conference finals the Heat finally won on Saturday, but this quick turnaround time. But he ran out of gas against the young Thunder, the main players in all 23 and younger, and it looks like if they could keep playing every night.

James and Wade both bent over, hands on his knee during a stop in about seven minutes left. Durant kept pouring it, racing down the court, to throw off a fast break dunk and added a 3-pointer that pushed to 87-81, 1-2 six minutes left.

The Heat got four points, but hit two quick baskets Durant and Westbrook is a 10-point lead in a 3:35 to go.

Even the rapid rise toward the top of the Thunder, who started 3-29 in 2008-09, in the first season after moving from Seattle. Fans are clearly included in the final 'arrival in Oklahoma City, where cars, buildings and even dyed her hair fans seemed to be in some way, or orange or blue.

Fans standing until the first basket of the Thunder did not have to wait very long baseline jumper Durant split in 70 seconds he created the first three shots, including two 3-pointer, but his teammates missed the first six attempts of an early hole.

Durant made sure that they were fine in the end.

Both superstars tried to downplay individual matchup, insisting the team had Durant and James insists that he does not care about the argument for best player in the game.

It was James' support to enhance the cast more to start, the Heat hitting five of six 3-point attempt jumped a 29 to 22 people after one quarter. Chris Bosh Spoelstra to keep a reserve, the role of going back to nine games in the absence of tense abdominal muscle. wise decision, because Battier hit his first three 3-point attempts in the opening minutes spark strong start in Miami.

Durant took only one shot in the second quarter, and it was not until nine minutes had elapsed. By then, leading the Heat built as large as 13 points, keeping in or near double digits most of the period preceding the Thunder cut to 54-47 at half time.

The blue sea looked like a scene from the court last year in Dallas, where James struggled so badly, if you care about most.

No Tony Gold at the End of the Rainbow

 After each awards season, there are tons of people who I think has been honored not have been. People who do not even get nominated. But I'm not going to greet all of them - now you have read the other "reject" column - instead I am going to write about two designated individuals who I think deserves to win Tony Awards over their competition: Tracie Bennett and Hugh Vans Tone .

Best Supporting Actress in a play was a very tough category this year. This may be the first time in my career where I thought all nominees deserve Tony awards. Cynthia Nixon was devastating in Wit. Stockard Channing is unquestionably brilliant in other cities Desert. (And, though I am not writing about it for themselves here, I will give call-out to other cities Desert, well-constructed family drama that I recommend.), Linda Lavin, a longtime favorite memory is pitch perfect as Rita Lyons, which allows viewers both love and hate it at once. Nina Arianda, who won the prize, was a revelation when I saw Venus in fur off-Broadway and its performance improved in the Broadway run of the show. But, if I vote, my vote had been cast for Tracie Bennett.

Bennett is doing something that is so incredibly hard that I almost think she deserves a special Tony. End of the Rainbow is technically a play with music, not musical, but Bennett is singing more songs than some of the most nominated actress in a musical category. While Tony broadcast did not show it in the best of her, Garland Bennett is uncanny. There are people floored reason. End of the Rainbow is unfortunately not much to play, which may have hurt Bennet in this race, but I urge everyone to go and see it. Bennett transforms herself completely to pieces. I can not imagine anyone else being as good at it. I'm glad she won the Drama Desk, and was hoping she would pick up Tony as well. She deserves it.

Many of you may have read the first paragraph of this post and when googled Hugh Vans Tone. Others may know his name or just assumed, rightly, that I would tell you who he is. Vans Tone's Tony-nominated lighting designer Spirit, who lost Tony Award this year for a national s Natasha Katz. Usually I can not find a description of the design categories. I think the last time I did was in 2001 when the lighting designer Jane Eyre in Peggy Eisenhauer and Jules Fisher lost out to Peter Kaczorowski for manufacturers. (This time I feel a little better about the when, with a mirrored set, it was really difficult to light, unlike the manufacturer.) Ghost and Jane Eyre were both shows were amazing lighting, they were both showing up level of each design is about their description, and they are both shows that I do not think all Tony voters saw. I've heard of some voters this year they gave up the Ghost tickets. It is not something that is supposed to happen, but it happens. I'm not saying that necessarily affect the outcome - I'm sure there were many, many voters who saw both shows and even voted for Katz, who did do a good job on the way - but to take part in the critically-reviled show likely hurt Vans Tone.

Tony Awards 2012: For 'Once' daring trumps commerce

Will wonders never cease: David slay Goliath with a rare victory at the Beacon Theatre, which forced us to rethink the old truism that the vision of an independent trade displaces Broadway.

"Once," small music spun by an Irish artist, movie films, defeating "Newsies," a Disney theatrical productions leading the Tony Award for best musical, despite the fact that "Newsies" road show greater potential for profiteering.

But if this season has taught us that this is something theatrical creativity can not be overcome by corporate forces. All the hoopla about another record year of billion plus Grosses (funny how when you consider the charge number of tickets, does not really matter, if participation is essentially flat), there was plenty of evidence to Broadway's determination to find a place on the ledger sheet risk and bold.

Either the football gods have placed the dreaded curse of the Jaguar and their first-round draft pick at wide receiver, or assignment of this franchise from rising above mediocrity just to get much harder.

Because what Justin Blackmon did Sunday - getting arrested at 3 am on charges of aggravated DUI in Stillwater, Okla. - beyond putting a serious flaw in his NFL career before it could begin. He also embarrassed the organization Jaguars' with a very stupid lapse in judgment.

Anyone scheduled to sign the contract fully guaranteed in the near future worth about $ 20 million - and who is full of remorse in October 2010 after being arrested on suspicion of DUI before - do not do something this stupid again unless he had a drinking problem.

After a string of close calls in 51-season history of the team, Santana finally finished work of 8.020 in the Mets' in th game.

"Finally, the first one," Santana said. "It is the most emotional ever."

He has two main assists to pull off a third no hitter the major funds in this period.

Carlos Beltran hit in the Cardinal line drive over third base in the sixth inning that hit the foul line and should have been called the Fair. But third base Judge Adrian Johnson ruled a foul. A replay showed clearly mark where the ball hit the line.

"It was difficult because it happened so fast. I was not able to see anything," Santana said. "The judge made his call, and it was at the end."

Mike Baxter on the Mets made the huge catch in left field to rob Yadier Molina of extra basa in the seventh. Baxter crashed into the wall, injured his shoulder and left the game.

"When I saw him running back to the warning track and he did play, it was unbelievable. Excellent game, and he saved the game," Santana said. "All these guys, I want to thank them for what we accomplished."

Making his 11th start since missing last season after shoulder surgery, Santana (3-2) threw a career-high 134 pitches in his second consecutive shutout. He struck out eight and walked five.

Phil Humber pitching a perfect game for the Chicago White Sox in Seattle on 21 April, and Jered Weaver, Los Angeles Angels pitching a no-hitter against Minnesota on May 2

Santana was cheered as he went to the mound in the ninth inning. The two-time Cy Young winner retired soon Matt Holliday and Allen Craig on shallow fly balls.

With the crowd of 27.069 feet, World Series MVP David Freese went 3-and-2 count before his foul tip caught by Josh Thole.

The Mets jumped out of the dugout and mobbed Santana.

"It was a crazy night - my fast ball moved all over," Santana said.

San Diego Padres, who began playing in 1969, is now the only team without a no hitter.

A Giddy Catcher Retraces a Special Night

Josh Thole does not get to run on the mound and embrace Johan Santana on Friday night, the first night of his return from the disabled list since May 7, when he sustained a concussion. Never mind how difficult it was for battery companies Santana and Thole to keep guessing and Louis Cardinals hitless through the night, it almost did not happen: Manager Terry Collins had almost persuaded Thole to play one more minor league rehab game.

"TC tried to talk me into it, really," Thole said Collins in his locker about an hour after he hugged Santana on the mound at Citi Field. "He asked," Are you sure you're ready? "I said," I am ready. That's it. I think I can handle it. "

The Mets had come so close to losing no-hitter in the game. Considering that Thole almost lost the game just shows how much had to go right for the first Mets' no-hitter in franchise history.

"You'll never forget this," Thole said. "It's like - I have asked to have a catcher's gear confirmed. It's like this stuff does not happen every day. I mean, again, a young boy, I'm a little giddy."

Thole grinned the whole time he retraced the steps, telling of a ninth inning that could define his career. Disposal of the meat of its cardinals "- Matt Holliday, Allen Craig and David Freese - in order, Santana needed just 12 pitches, eight changeups, three fast balls and sliders.

Holliday lifted the first pitch changeup to center field, but it proved harmless. To that point, Thole said Santana had given him plenty of options as catcher, as he located his fast ball and slider on each side of the plate, making his changeup much more dangerous.

Craig began a 2-2 changeup into left field - and just like the fans did during Holliday's at-bat, it seemed as if everyone holding their breath. And that, too, was harmless.

But if one player was impressed enough to end up like the Mets' on, it would be Freese, State World Series most valuable player, took the first three pitches he saw. Santana was 3-0 hole.

So Thole exactly for the fast ball, "he founded the Committee on the plate very well, so there was no question that what I was going. We were going - fast ball in, and if he loses, oh well, going first to will try to get out again. "

The ball stuck fast; Strike first

Then, after Freese fouled off changeup, Thole called the second, the 3-2 count, with the opportunity to end Santana's no-hitter.

"It was strange, but I mean, I was not - it was like it was right for me," Thole said. "The last full at-bat came right to me. No question about it. It was as if he throws a changeup, I want it down to earth. If we walk him, and that, and hopefully we can get in the swing through. he threw and he threw it perfect. I did not close it, I was able to grab it, and that's it. "

Freese swung in the air, and Thole complimented the judge, in what has become a polite Thole often closer, and he rushed to the mound, arms to the sky. Nine innings in his return from the concussion, it was clear that Thole's head was clear, too.
