Black Velvet - YouTube Video With Alannah Myles
If you thought the timeless rock song Black Velvet was a product of The Wilson Sisters -- as I did -- you're flar wrong. The amazing voice behind this classic is of none other than Alannah Myles. Take a look and give a listen here:
Here are the lyrics (according to Songfacts, it's about Elvis Presley, but I thought it was refering to black men in the South, or an African American man she knew -- wishful thinking):
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
Chorus:
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightening, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Every word of every song that he sang was for you
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could you do?
(Solo)
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
If you please, if you please, if you please

Junior Seau May Join New England Patriots
Just three days after giving a stirring speach that he was graduating and not retiring from the Miami Dolphins, and the San Diego Chargers, and
The NFL, Junior Seau may graduate alright, right to the New England Patriots.
It's not suprising given that Seau remarked that no one wanted him, so he got out.
Well, no one asked the Pats.
NY Giants Crush KC Chiefs 17-0
The Chiefs have not yet played at home.
Manning, Giants sharp in win over Chiefs
NFL.com wire reports
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (Aug. 17, 2006) -- Eli Manning and the New York Giants showed flashes of offense they'll need to repeat as NFC East champions. They also showed Herm Edwards how much work his Kansas City Chiefs have left to do.
Manning threw for one touchdown and set up another and the Giants starters and backups dominated in a 17-0 preseason victory over Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday night, spoiling Edwards' return to Giants Stadium.
"We came out here and played very well," Manning said. "The defense did a great job of getting us good field possession on the first series and we were able to run the ball, throw the ball and convert third downs."
The Giants did just about anything they wanted in outgaining the Chiefs 309-111 while holding the ball for more than 37 minutes.
If the game showed anything, it was that the Giants (2-0) have the talent to repeat in the NFC East and that Edwards, the former Jets coach, has a lot of work ahead to get the Chiefs (0-2) back to the playoffs for the first time since 2003.
"We've done this two weeks in a row," Edwards said matter of factly. "I flat out told the guys it wasn't a good job coaching, and you just can't play like that against a team that went to the playoffs last year. We have to hurry up and rally now."
Edwards led the Jets to three playoff appearances in five seasons, but he was ushered out after a 4-12 mark last season. In taking the Chiefs job, he promised to shore up their porous defense.
No such change was evident against the Giants.
Eli Manning was effective in limited action for the Giants.
Manning shredded Kansas City for touchdowns on two of the first three drives, capping the first with a 5-yard toss to Amani Toomer and handing off the Brandon Jacobs for a 1-yard plunge on the third series.
The other drive probably would have resulted in points had not Jeremy Shockey and Tim Carter been hit with consecutive holding penalties in Chiefs territory.
Defensively, New York limited Trent Green (4-of-6 for 32 yards) and halfback Larry Johnson (4 carries for 8 yards) to two first downs in two series before turning things over to the backups. The Chiefs only got into Giants' territory once in the game, getting to the New York 40 on their second series.
"Is it time to panic?" Green asked. "No, but I definitely think there has to be much more of a sense of urgency on the starters part."
Manning finished 11-of-14 for 80 yards playing for the first time this preseason with all 11 starters from the offense that scored 422 points last season.
Manning spread the ball around extremely well, hitting Toomer, Plaxico Burress and Carter with two passes each. Tiki Barber, appearing for the first time, ran five times for 22 yards and caught a pass for nine more.
Shockey, who missed the preseason opener with a concussion, caught one pass for 10 yards and cleared out the middle on the short touchdown pass to Toomer.
"I'm excited we have something to build on," Shockey said.
In the second-quarter drive, Manning used a no-huddle offense to move New York 52 yards in eight plays without all starters in the game. Jacobs had a 14-yard run on the second play of the drive in which the Giants had only one third-down play: Jacobs' touchdown run.
Kansas City never threatened.
"Last week we didn't come out the way we wanted," Giants safety Gibril Wilson. "This week we came out flying."
The game also marked the return of quarterback Rob Johnson to NFL action for the first time since December 2003. He missed the last two seasons with an elbow injury that required surgery.
The 33-year-old Johnson, who the Giants signed in May, replaced Manning midway through the second quarter and played five series, completing 7 of 14 passes for 62 yards. The 10-year veteran put up points on his last drive, taking New York 65 yards for a 31-yard field goal by Jay Feely on the final play of the third quarter.
"I'm not satisfied," Johnson said. "I have a lot to improve on."
The most serious injury in the game was a sprained knee sustained by Giants starting center Shaun O'Hara. He will have an MRI on Friday, but he was not concerned.
"I'll be back working at Albany," O'Hara said, referring to the team's training camp site.

Philadelphia Eagles Drop One To Balimore Ravens 10-20
Ravens rally past Eagles for 20-10 win
NFL.com wire reports
BALTIMORE (Aug. 17, 2006) -- Standing in a corner of the Philadelphia Eagles locker room, Correll Buckhalter flashed a wide smile as he spoke excitedly about playing in the NFL again.
"Everything in the past is in the past," he said, referring to knee injuries that forced him to miss three of the past four seasons. "It's a new beginning for me."
Playing for the first time this preseason, Buckhalter ran 48 yards with a shovel pass from Donovan McNabb to set up the Eagles' lone touchdown in a 20-10 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night.
The final score didn't spoil the fun for Buckhalter, who has not played in the regular season since 2003. He is vying to be the backup to Brian Westbrook, who missed the game with a leg injury.
"It feels great to be back. I feel very blessed," Buckhalter said. "I put a lot of hard work into this, and practice makes perfect. I stayed calm throughout the process before getting on the field, and that helped me. I made no mental errors and followed my assignments."
Especially on his catch-and-go from McNabb. Buckhalter eased past the several blitzing linemen, then worked his way downfield before being tackled on the 1. He enjoyed less success carrying the football, however, gaining eight yards on five tries.
"I thought he did some good things," Eagles coach Andy Reid said. "It was good to get him in there, and he had the long screen play. I thought after that he was a little bit tired. We'll do a little more with him next week."
Buckhalter's spectacular play accounted for nearly half of McNabb's 97 yards through the air on 6-of-10 passing, all in the first half.
Down 10-3 at halftime, the Ravens got a 43-yard touchdown run from Musa Smith to pull even. Matt Stover kicked a 30-yard field goal later in the third quarter to give Baltimore (1-1) its first lead, and Kyle Boller threw a 27-yard touchdown pass to Devard Darling with 13:34 left.
Ravens quarterback Steve McNair, who ran for a touchdown in his only series last week, couldn't get Baltimore into the end zone in 30 minutes of play. He went 14-for-18 for 148 yards and no interceptions.
Steve McNair looked good but managed just three first-half points.
"We did a good job from the 20 to the 20, but we've got to finish now," McNair said.
Darling finished with five catches for 121 yards, including a 42-yarder. He's seeking to earn a job as Baltimore's third wide receiver, and this performance didn't hurt his chances.
"Those are the kind of plays we've been waiting to see Devard make," Ravens coach Brian Billick said.
Working with a no-huddle offense, the Eagles (1-2) scored on their opening drive after Ravens cornerback Samari Rolle was called for pass interference on the first play from scrimmage. Six plays after the 35-yard penalty, David Akers kicked a 43-yard field goal.
After Baltimore punted, the Eagles benefited from another penalty during an 80-yard drive that produced a touchdown and a 10-0 lead.
On third down at the Philadelphia 22, McNabb threw an incomplete pass. But Ravens linebacker Bart Scott was called for illegal contact away from the play, and McNabb completed a 21-yard pass to L.J. Smith before connecting with Buckhalter.
Buckhalter gave credit to the offensive line, but the play wouldn't have worked if he didn't show the speed and footwork that characterized his play three years ago.
"For him to come back and bounce back this strong," McNabb said, "we cheer for him. He can gain some confidence from this and be able to move on."
After Buckhalter was stopped at the 1, McNabb threw a touchdown pass to Reno Mahe.
The Ravens answered with a 15-play drive that consumed more than nine minutes and produced a 30-yard field goal by Stover.
Late in the half, Baltimore moved to the Philadelphia 23 before Jevon Kearse hit McNair in the pocket, forcing a fumble that was recovered by safety Brian Dawkins. Ray Lewis then forced Mahe to fumble at the Philadelphia 42.
The Ravens moved to the 17 with 18 seconds to go, then inexplicably ran on a third-down play without any timeouts left. The clock ran out before they could try a field goal.

"Security Moms" Are A Figment Of The Republican Imagination
I saw this howler of an article on Washingtonpost.com that "Security Moms" -- married women with kids -- were leaving the GOP in droves according to polls.
Well, I've got news: they were never there.
There's this really annoying tendency to pare down anyone who voted for George Bush in 2000 and 2004 as a solid support of him and the GOP. Well, no. First, you've only got two real choices for President -- the Greens and Independents (flaky by the name) have not advanced a really viable candidate. So it's either one guy or the other.
George Bush voters just liked him better than Al Gore and even more so that John Kerry.
Let us remember it was Joh Kerry who made the crack about marrying up to his wife, not George W. I was at a Bay Area Democrats event attended mostly by white women between 21 and 60 -- about 30 percent with kids -- and all let out a collective groan when Kerry made that slip of the tongue. I could see votes slipping away right them.
The Security Moms just plain don't like George W any more. I mean they voted for him but that never translated into support. Let's not forget that as long as the GOP remains white male dominant in its policies -- like abortion -- it will never ever capture the vote of every married woman with kids and this fact will remain as more and more women enter the workforce and take on traditional male roles. The GOP's demise -- or change -- can be seen in demographics.
Then signal is clear: welcome to the 21st Century GOP -- deal with it!
Matt Leinart To Start In Second Quarter Of Pats Game This Weekend
Never been to an NFL game? Matt? Wow!
Newly signed Leinart to play 2nd quarter
NFL.com wire reports
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (Aug. 16, 2006) -- Matt Leinart finally gets to see his first NFL game against the New England Patriots -- from under center.
The Arizona Cardinals plan to play Leinart at least a quarter, Cardinals coach Dennis Green said.
"He'll go in the second, and then John Navarre will go in the third,"
Kurt Warner and the Cardinals first team will play the first quarter. Then the rookie from Southern California, who ended a two-week holdout by signing a six-year contract late Aug. 14, will attend a pro game for the first time.
"I've never been to an NFL game," Leinart said, "and my first game I'm going to be playing in. It's pretty cool."
He has taken extensive reps with the second team since arriving at the training camp, which ends Aug. 17 at Northern Arizona University.
"I was a little surprised," Leinart said of his early work in practice. "They were throwing me in there almost every time it seemed like. But it was good. I thought I threw the ball pretty well."
Green said that while Leinart has not been around to work on the entire Arizona offense, he arrived in time to focus on the game plan for New England.
"There are a lot of things we have done that won't be a part of the game this week," Green said. "The things that are going to be part of the game this week Matt Leinart will have a very good knowledge of, so I think he'll go out and play well."

Vikings Koren Robinson In Chase WIth Police At 120 MPH...
Minnesota Vikings Koren Washington was arrested on what will be his third DUI, according to the NFL Network. What is not reported in the Wash Post link is that Koren Robinson was driving at a speed so fast, police couldn't clock him. They lost him in chase for a bit, so they went by their own car's speed: 120 MPH. But even with that, Robinson still eluded them.
If you're wondering what Robinson was driving, it was a BMW, proving that even with a drunken pro athlete behind the wheel, it's still the Ulimate Driving Machine.
Israel Is Giving Its Position To The UN; Question Of Hezbollah's Strength Is Wrongheaded
The Wash Post reports on Israel's pullout of Lebannon and to the UN's force. But Chris Matthews of "Hardball" asked if Hezbollah had been weakened.
I think that's the wrong question. It seems to compare the organization to a standing army; the simple fact that such a query would develop shows how little we Americans really "get" the Arab / Israel conflict. Hezbollah represents a force in what is more a holy war than a common nation to nation battle. Thus, it's more a movement than an army.
Take a look at this video. Yes, it's totally anti-Hezbollah, but it underscores my point of how severe the differences are and why we as Americans must be careful.
