<description><![CDATA[<p>You know those mascots; always trying to dunk when they just aren't equipped for it.  But some are less-suited to prowess on the court than others.</p><p>With that in mind, Conan introduced us to several mascots that shouldn't try to dunk, and it's classic, laugh-out-loud, Team Coco ridiculousness. Funeral urn? No way you're making that shot, buddy. Also, which team has a funeral urn for a mascot? That betrays some fairly low expectations, doesn't it?</p><p>Of course, all bets are off once they get to the baby cannon. Watch the full clip above and realize that your day just got a little better.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Not many people know that Will Smith and Jimmy Fallon's grandfathers were an NBC radio show duo back in the 1920s. In fact, they recorded their show in the very same studio where "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" tapes today. What are the odds?</p><p>Even more curious, a lot of their old songs sound eerily familiar to Will Smith's later hits. Not that Jimmy is accusing Will of ripping off his late grandfather... not at all.</p><p>Take a look at Smith and Fallon's super old school clip above, and marvel at the off-screen endurance it took to pull this off.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Like much of the planet right now, I'm obsessed with HBO's fantasy series, <a href="http://www.hbo.com/game-of-thrones/index.html" target="_hplink"><em>Game of Thrones</em></a>. I think about it pretty much every waking minute, but there was a moment in last Sunday's episode that has really stuck with me. It even puts a lump in my throat.</p><p>Robb Stark, the honorable King of the North, is remembering his father, the brave Ned Stark, who was so loved before getting unjustly beheaded for trying to save his family and the people of Winterfell. </p><p>Robb's speech went like this:</p><p><em>He was the best man I ever met.... He once told me that being a lord is like being a father, except you have thousands of children. And you worry about all of them: The farmer plowing the fields is yours to protect, the charwomen scrubbing the floors, yours to protect, the soldiers you order into battle. He told me he woke with fear in the morning and went to bed with fear in the night. I didn't believe him. I asked him, "How can a man be brave if he's afraid?"</p><p>"That is the only time a man </em>can <em>be brave," he said.</em></p><p>The passage brings tears, I think, because it's a conclusion I've been slowly drawing myself. When I began doing research for my book <a href="http://www.fearproject.net" target="_hplink"><em>The Fear Project</em></a> a few years ago, I thought I wanted to be fearless -- a superhero. Like Robb, I would've asked my father, "How can a man be brave if he is afraid?" But after reading hundreds of studies about fear and talking to some of the world's experts on fear science, my view has evolved.</p><p>First off, fear is very complex. But the young Robb was right that fear can keep us from being brave. One of the features of our fight-or-flight-or-freeze response is that we can become paralyzed and simply do nothing under threat -- a deer in the headlights. Not very brave. Another feature is that we might go into complete autopilot and harm someone we don't mean to: a scuba diver who, panicking, inadvertently steals his partner's air supply; a police officer who thinks a man's cell phone is a gun and mistakenly pulls the trigger. Again, not brave. Study after study has shown that fear and self-doubt also make us perform less than our best. If you tell a group of math students they're being filmed while taking a test, or that there's some money on the line -- as psychologist Sian Beilock describes in her excellent book <a href="http://sianbeilock.com/" target="_hplink"><em>Choke: What the Secrets of the Brain Reveal about Getting It Right When We Have To</em></a> -- most will underperform from the raised stress. And how can you be brave like Ned Stark if you can't perform up to par? Ned had to be ready for battle at any moment.</p><p>It's a tough question, and in some ways, Ned is wrong. Fear can be extremely negative. Fear keeps us from living our dreams, makes us scared of people who are different, creating war and racism. It lies to us about our potential. We want to be fearless, right?  </p><p>Yes, but Ned Stark was talking about a fear <em>for </em>others. If I didn't fear dropping my newborn son, I'd be more careless with him. If I didn't fear hitting someone with my car, I'd speed through residential neighborhoods where kids are playing. When I think about the fact that I'll die, or that my wife won't be here forever, it makes me a little scared, but it also makes me appreciate the precious time we have together. That makes me a better husband. Fear -- in this useful form, the kind Ned Stark was talking about -- is not the opposite of love (as so many people oversimplify). It <em>is</em> love. </p><p>That said, our stress and fear response is a rather brutish part of our biology. As neuroscientist <a href="http://www.psych.nyu.edu/phelpslab/people/daniela_schiller.htm" target="_hplink">Daniela Schiller</a> recently told me, the amygdala (the ancient part of our brain associated with fear) sends the same signals -- increased adrenaline and cortisol -- to the body whether you're afraid of losing money or afraid for your child's life. The result is a faster heart rate, sweaty palms, etc. And again, that sort of fear will likely hinder performance whether it's selfish fear or selfless fear. Imagine a golfer who is stressed about losing a tournament or stressed about his wife's cancer. Both types of stress might mess with his game. </p><p>So, how is Ned Stark right in saying that fear is the only way a man can be brave? </p><p>Well, for one, as sports psychology consultant Paige Dunn told me in <a href="http://www.fearproject.net/2012/05/17/know-thyself/" target="_hplink">our recent interview</a>, if you're not a little afraid, you're probably not pushing yourself to your potential. Fear comes when we're doing something new, stretching our limits. Ned Stark was such a good knight and lord -- and so loved by the people -- because he was constantly pushing himself to do the right thing for his family and his people. He was often tired. He usually looked haggard. But that was why we all loved him. You knew Ned was going to lay it on the line to do the honorable thing.  </p><p>Fortunately, now some more nuanced scientific studies are beginning to show how the Ned Starks of the world might also perform at the top of their game despite their fear. Beilock's lab at the University of Chicago, for example, recently showed that performance may not be hindered by fear and stress so much as how we interpret fear, how we frame it. In the Beilock study (page 141 of<a href="http://http://sianbeilock.com/" target="_hplink"><em>Choke</em></a>), math students were asked to take a challenging test and had their cortisol -- or stress hormone levels -- measured just after the exam. Students who have a pattern of anxiety about math did more poorly with higher stress responses, but students who love math actually did <em>better</em> with higher stress. The reason, Beilock theorized, is that "if you can manage to interpret your body's [fear] response to the situation as positive, as a call to action, you are likely to thrive. But if you interpret your body's response as a sign that you are in a bad place with no way out, the worries and ruminations that result may send you into a 'choke.'" (I recently wrote more about framing stress in <a href="http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7649003/nfl-science-why-ravens-kicker-billy-cundiff-choked-afc-championship-game-espn-magazine" target="_hplink"><em>ESPN Magazine</em></a>.)</p><p>I relate this type of positive fear to surfing.  When I'm in waves that scare me, I generally get excited and the adrenaline focuses me. It makes the surf session fun, and I surf better. The fear is transformed to focus (just like professional skier JT Holmes <a href="http://www.fearproject.net/2011/11/26/94/" target="_hplink">told me</a>). But if I interpret the adrenaline as a sign that I'm going to get injured, I risk freezing up. I become hesitant, and my performance suffers.</p><p>I think Ned Stark was able to use fear to be brave because he learned to interpret it positively, which, in a way, transforms fear from the kind that makes us suffer to the kind that makes life exciting. He took his fear for his people -- those "farmers plowing the fields, the charwomen scrubbing the floors, the soldiers he ordered into battle" -- and he interpreted the fear as a call to action. That was how he used fear to be a great leader. That's why he was loved. And that's why his love was so great. </p><p>Now if only I could get over my fear of season two of <em>Game of Thrones</em> ending. How can anyone possibly see this as a positive?</p><p>For those who haven't watched yet, here's a little visual of the brave Ned Stark. May he rest in peace.</p><center><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xkgNP60rPMs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></center><p><em>For more by Jaimal Yogis, click <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jaimal-yogis" target="_hplink">here</a>.</p><p>For more on Becoming Fearless, click <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/news/becoming-fearless" target="_hplink">here</a>. </em></p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>By Kristen Bialik</strong></p><p>In 1989, Reverend, televangelist and Founder of the International School of Exorcism Bob Larson sat down for a friendly interview with two people who represent everything he opposes in life. Those two people were Nikolas Schreck and his wife Zeena, daughter of Anton LaVey -- the founder of the Church of Satan. Together the Shrecks were black magicians and leaders in the Church of Satan's Werewolf Order, which they defined as a "magical resistance movement, esoteric research network, and radical ecology faction." As the daughter and son-in-law to Anton LaVey, the Schrecks were arguably (outside LaVey himself) two of the closest people to Satanism. In a way, they were connected to the very reason it exists, to the movement that was giving a name and strength to all that Bob Larson believes is wrong with the world. At any given point in time, the interview is any combination of openly aggressive, passively aggressive, shockingly civil, shockingly lucid, hard to watch and completely riveting.</p><p><strong><a href="http://networkawesome.com/show/talk-show-the-first-family-of-satanism/" target="_hplink">Talk Show - The First Family of Satanism</a></strong><br /><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://networkawesome.com/embed_show/talk-show-the-first-family-of-satanism/"></param><embed src="http://networkawesome.com/embed_show/talk-show-the-first-family-of-satanism/" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385"></embed></object><br /><em>Televangelist Bob Larson interviews Zeena LaVey and Nikolas Schreck</em></p><p>The problem from the get-go is that Bob Larson believes himself to be, by virtue of being in the media, a part of the objective journalistic press. He simultaneously confirms and undermines this posturing when he says things like, "I'm trying to remain as academically detached as I possibly can, but what you're saying is so absolutely disgustingly outrageous." As a man who built a career on exorcising and destroying what he sees Zeena and Nikolas to represent, he has, of course, come with an agenda. He wants to put them on display as evil for his fans, and then either let their responses exorcise their ideas for him or give them an out, a chance to show that behind the scary Satanist layer there's a kind-hearted Christian underneath. When neither of those things happens, Larson grows increasingly frustrated.</p><p>Larson thinks he has the upper-hand because he's right. Zeena and Nikolas Schreck think they have the upper-hand because they're right. Welcome to religion. Larson has to stop at times because he finds the beliefs and comments of the Schrecks so unbelievable he either has to repeat them or stop to laugh. He pauses at one point to chuckle and say, "Excuse me, you just did that roll of your tongue like 'hey a black magic ceremony for Satan.'" This coming from a man who believes he exorcised a demon named Satam (which he points out is the name of one of the Saudi Arabian terrorists who hijacked a plane during 9/11) from an ancestral alter named Elijah (who is apparently a Muslim who lived in France in 1760 after migrating from Saudi Arabia) living inside a woman named Avery in Denver, Colo. I also have to point out that Larson has trained a band of teenage girls to become a trio of demon-fighting exorcists. I would watch that reality show. I would also like to mention that Bob Larson already has one.</p><p>It's interesting to watch how the belief systems of each side shapes the way they respond to attack. When the Schrecks are under Larson's line of fire, they immediately go into offensive mode and aggressively so. At one point, Larson expresses surprise at Schreck's extensive knowledge of denominations of Christianity and Schrek replies, "I wish I didn't know anything about them, but I'm forced to deal with them. So I know every kind of idiocy that is called Christianity." This should come as no surprise. Pride and vengeance are two of the nine satanic statements. Their whole lives, Zeena and Nikolas have learned that when you are attacked, however you are attacked, you return the blow in equal measure.</p><p>As a practitioner of love, forgiveness and humility, when Larson is attacked he immediately goes on the defensive. He turns to the word of God and the overarching philosophy of Jesus for explanation. He says, might I add very defensively, that he does NOT approve of bingo games or raffles. And when Zeena and Nikolas confirm that, no, they would never shelter or feed the homeless; Larson visibly bristles and retorts, "No one's defending welfare!" This is how the interview plays out, one second they're talking about bingo games, the next, sexual cohabitation with demons.</p><p>No matter what the topic, another central issue is that Larson demands yes/no answers to questions of morality and doesn't understand when Zeena and Nikolas can't give those to him. He wants black and white answers, and the Schrecks can't understand why he doesn't see validity in their grey area. He asks is it wrong to murder? Was Hitler evil? But what if you're wrong?</p><p>Larson has a tendency to move toward extremes, to dangle the most repugnant example he can come up with and see how the Schrecks react. If it's a discussion of satanic marriage, Larson asks if Joe Schmo can marry his dog. If it's a question of the satanic tenet in indulgence, Larson asks if that means pedophiles can indulge in children. If the Schmecks assert that people can and do create their own realities, Larson responds, "Sure, tell that to the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto ... Hitler created a reality. Was it evil?" Larson wants and expects a yes, and can be forgiven for being shocked when Nikolas responds, "Hitler was a masterful black magician. Of course he created a reality. Was he evil? I'm telling you I don't believe in good and evil."</p><p>Nikolas asserts that history, good, evil, right and wrong is subjective. "Everything changes with the cultural tides. Morals change with the weather," he explains. But don't mistake his acceptance of a grey area for a lack of prescribed opinions. He and Zeena boast about the non-dogmatic rituals and tenets of Satanism, but it's one argument that falls short. Sure, Satanism is built on the idea of individualism and thus, any satanic ritual can be highly customized to mean or be performed however the member chooses. They say there are no hard and fast rules, which is true compared to more directive religions. But there are rules. And there are satanic sins -- nine of them: stupidity, pretentiousness, solipsism, self-deceit, herd conformity, lack of perspective, forgetfulness of past orthodoxies, counterproductive pride and ... lack of aesthetics. There are also Eleven Satanic Rules of the Earth, which are much like the rules of any religion -- namely, don't be a horrible person. I guess the only really unorthodox one is, "If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat him cruelly and without mercy."</p><p>What comes across the most is each side's rigidity. They believe so firmly that they are wise, their opponents are fools and that the other is a scourge on the planet Earth. But for all their stubbornness, beliefs do change. Larson himself alludes to the fact that he was not always a practicing Christian. The Schrecks eventually abandoned the Church of Satan for their own Tantric Buddhism movement. Yes, people change, beliefs change and over the long course of history religious institutions change. When the interview was released in 1989, those interested in Christianity or the Church of Satan had churches or Bibles. Today, there's an official Church of Satan website and Facebook page. The official Church of Satan even tweets! Then again, so does the Vatican. Either way, however far from reality these social media pages may be, it is telling that when it comes to Twitter, the official Church of Satan and the Vatican draw thousands of followers, but they follow no one.</p><p><strong><a href="http://www.networkawesome.com" target="_hplink">What's on Network Awesome today?</a></strong></p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Last week, the Census Bureau released updated population numbers affirming once again that Latinos are America's largest and fastest-growing minority.  There <a href="http://www.nationaljournal.com/thenextamerica/demographics/census-minorities-constitute-37-percent-of-u-s-population-20120517" target="_hplink">are now 52 million of us residing in the U.S.</a>--nearly one in five Americans.  Perhaps the most striking statistic is that <a href="http://www.census.gov/newsroom/releases/archives/population/cb12-90.html" target="_hplink">more than half of babies born in the U.S. are "minorities</a>," and minority children make up half of all children under the age of five--the American future in a nutshell.<br /><br />
If these figures surprise you, you probably watch a lot of prime-time network television.  The shows that most Americans watch at night are a serious contrast to our schools, our neighborhoods, and our communities--devoid of a significant minority presence, especially when it comes to Latinos.  And the <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/tv-column/post/upfront-week-2012-cw-moves-americas-next-top-model-to-friday-unveils-medical-tuesday-and-supernatural-wednesday/2012/05/17/gIQAqvosVU_blog.html" target="_hplink">fall TV schedule unveiled last week</a> in New York by the four major networks does little to change that monochromatic landscape, and perhaps will make it even worse.<br /><br />
Gone are programs such as <em>CSI: Miami, Desperate Housewives</em>, and<em> Rob,</em> all of which had lead Latino characters.  In fact, not one of the new shows picked up by the networks features a lead or strong secondary Hispanic character.<br /><br />
How bad is it?  When NCLR put out its landmark series of reports on Latinos on television two decades ago, we quoted writer-director Jesus Treviño's quip that you were more likely to find someone from outer space than a Latino on television.  Well, 20 years later, there will be no Latino family starring on a prime-time network television this September, but there will be a family of space aliens.<br /><br />
We know of at least three programs starring Hispanics that were developed by the networks, meaning the scripts were shot and considered for the schedule.  Unfortunately, not one of these shows, even with high-profile producers and actors attached, were placed on the network prime-time schedule. <br /><br />
There's a lot of talk by the networks about reaching out to the Latino audience, but little action.   Networks need to be brave enough to pick up shows with Latinos in starring roles.  Learn from what works and what doesn't work, then try again until you succeed.  Isn't that how all successful ventures work?  With the majority of American Latinos watching most of their television on English-language outlets, this is not only the brave but also the smart thing to do.<br /><br />
To those who say it doesn't matter that Latinos aren't on sitcoms or soapy dramas, we say it does matter.  It matters a lot.  Recently, Vice President Joe Biden cited the effect of <em>Will and Grace</em> on people's view of the LGBT community.  Studies have shown that the single most important factor for someone supporting same sex marriage is knowing someone who is gay, including a character on a television show like <em>Modern Family</em>.  In other words, when a gay person stops being the "other," the misconceptions and the barriers fall.<br /><br />
There is perhaps no group seen or treated more as the "other" in today's America than the Hispanic community.  Yet in today's society, Latinos are everywhere--your librarian, server, investment banker, bus driver, university president, art school teacher, theater manager, doctor, state senator, interior designer, U.S. Secretary of Labor, neighbor, and more.</p><p>Yes, we need a change in political rhetoric:  a restoration of light vs. heat in news coverage, and more courageous elected officials denouncing scapegoating and demonizing.  But Latinos also need to see their reality, America's reality, reflected on a medium that unites us all--television entertainment.<br /><br />
When Latinos are more than just a blip on the screen, our fellow Americans will learn that we want and value the same things--our family, our faith, our work, and our country.  And maybe we will at long last stop being America's "other."</p><p><em>This was first posted to the <a href="http://www.nclr.org/index.php/about_us/news/blog/a_disappointing_television_season_for_the_latino_community/" target="_hplink">NCLR Blog</a>.</em></p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>The name of the show may be "<a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/men-at-work/9035956" target="_hplink">Men at Work</a>" (Thu., 10 p.m. ET on TBS), but it could better be describes as "men talking about sex." TBS offered up the first two episodes in a back-to-back package, and sex and sexuality featured heavily in both.</p><p>The series follows four male friends who work at a men's magazine and are almost completely driven by their libidos. Actually, that only applies to three of them. Neal is the only one of them in the relationship, so in his case, the obsession with sex is coming from his girlfriend Amy. In fact, he's overwhelmed by her request for him to get down with some dirty talk to spice up their love life.</p><p>The premiere focused on the guys rallying around Milo, who'd just been dumped. They want to get him back out there by getting him a quality one-night stand. A side plot saw the gang's biggest player, Gibbs, sleeping with Tyler's maid -- because she was there.</p><p>The second strayed into different plotlines, like Milo going too far on his first feature, and Neal having to make cuts at the office because print is struggling. Even then, though, they managed to make sex a major part of the show.</p><p>It's like "<a href="http://www.aoltv.com/show/2-broke-girls/8680648" target="_hplink">2 Broke Girls</a>" in that way, which has led to a similar negative response from the critics. <a href="http://tv.nytimes.com/2012/05/24/arts/television/men-at-work-new-sitcom-on-tbs.html" target="_hplink">The New York Times</a> called it "desperate," while <a href="http://www.tv.com/news/hey-tv-com-should-i-watch-men-at-work-28752/" target="_hplink">TV.com</a> said "don't bother" to even watch it. <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/tv/tbss-men-at-work-a-rerun-before-its-even-started/2012/05/23/gJQAcSedkU_story.html" target="_hplink">The Washington Post</a> described the show as a "rerun," indicating that it feels stale and old, as if the creators had missed out on the evolution of comedy in the past 30 years.</p><p><em>Make your own decision about "Men at Work" by tuning in Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on TBS. Or just wait for "Cougar Town" in 2013.</em></p><p><em>TV Replay scours the vast television landscape to find the most interesting, amusing, and, on a good day, amazing moments, and delivers them right to your browser.</em></p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>It's 2004 all over again, as MSNBC reminds us. Southwest Airlines went the reality TV route back then with the series "Airline," and now they're back with the premiere of "On the Fly" (Thu., 9 p.m. ET on TLC). But this new series takes a much deeper look into the company, with unprecedented access.</p><p>As such, it speaks to the frustrations -- and there are many frustrated customers shown on the series -- of flying in the modern era of ultra-security. But it also shows the complexities of running an airline from every aspect, including baggage handlers, airport personnel, maintenance crew and the in-flight team as well.</p><p>It wasn't all negative reactions, though, for the drama. One touching moment came when a flight attendant's boyfriend disguised himself boarding her plane. Then, when they were mid-flight, he called her over and surprised her on one knee in the aisle with a ring and a proposal. She said yes, of course.</p><p>It's a surprisingly open and compelling look into a unique business and the customers that love it and/or hate it. And because permission is granted afterwards from customers spotlighted, the encounters feel far more authentic than if everyone was part of the larger "cast."</p><p><em>Keep up with new episodes of "On the Fly" each Thursday at 9 p.m. ET on TLC.</em></p><p><em>TV Replay scours the vast television landscape to find the most interesting, amusing, and, on a good day, amazing moments, and delivers them right to your browser.</em></p>]]></description>

Zolciak had a blast having the photos done, and then decided they shouldn't be reserved for her man alone. Of course, having it broadcast on television means she meant it to be for everyone, but she also specifically showed them to Biermann's mother.</p><p>To give this a little perspective, Biermann's mom's gift at the bridal shower was apple butter from church.
