Summary
*Special Delivery is hosted by “Prime Time” Sam Roberts, co-produces the Opie and Anthony Show and “Eastside” Dave McDonald of the Ron and Fez Show. It airs on Saturdays at 9 p.m. as part of the programming block known as the “Saturday Night Virus” on XM 202.
*The on air content typically discusses pop culture, and lesser talked about news stories. While Roberts is younger and less physically imposing than McDonald, he often appears to be the dominant half of the duo. Because Roberts recognizes himself as the leader of the pair, he is able to manipulate the topic of discussion, and often chooses topics that he knows inside and out such as celebrity gossip, Twitter, and professional wrestling.
History
The ReplicationDomain online database was envisioned by Dr. David Gilbert before his hiring at Florida State University in late 2005. Work on the project was started in early 2006 and by August 2006 the first prototype, supporting only Mus Musculus species data, was online. Since those humble beginnings the site has added support for additional species data, support for additional epigenetic data types and granular support for sharing data sets with registered users. The ReplicationDomain staff in August 2006 was David Gilbert (Director), Alexander Stuy (System architect, database design and administrator, backend programmer), Nodin Weddington (Front end user interface programmer, database programmer, database design), Ichiro Hiratani (Interface designer, consultant, tester) and Tyrone Ryba (Interface designer, consultant, tester).

The Stingers were founded in 1993 under the guidance of Chris Pye, and were initially coached by ex-London Monarchs player Todd Oberdorf. They quickly gained support from several local companies, and obtained enough kit and players to join the BCAFL for the 1994-95 season under Head Coach Pete Vaughan. The Stingers played their first game, a friendly against division rival Hertfordshire in May 1994, losing 30-0. After a slow start in their first year in the League, the Stingers won their final two games, defeating Hertfordshire 6-2 and Reading 16-0. The Stingers' record was only slightly better the next year, but improved as the season progressed.
Ever since then the Stingers have been consistent competitors, but have only reached the playoffs twice, by capturing division titles in 2002 & 2006.
The 2007-2008 season will see the team move to a new strip, wearing university colours for the first time in club history. This is in conjunction with a complete rebranding, including new logo, with the traditional cartoon Stinger becoming the official image for the University of Surrey Stingers Old Boys team.
