Where Liquid Meets Air: Seeing the Details of Light, Dark, and Water
Technique gives detailed view into how certain polymers form, unlocking answers about nucleation
Imagine a tiny drop. It contains water, the fizzy antiseptic hydrogen peroxide, and a common, yellowish chemical called glyoxal. When the droplet is exposed to light, a cascade of reactions occurs, producing new materials. These reactions occur on the surface, where liquid meets air. Scientists didn't have many details about the reactions until Dr. Xiao-Ying Yu from DOE's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and her colleagues took up the challenge. They got the details using an imaging mass spectrometer that typically boil liquids away in vacuum. They found that the reactions don't stop when the light fades. They also saw how the resulting products mixed on the surface and reacted with more than 40 water clusters.
"Computer models can track about 10 to 12 clusters," said Yu, the corresponding author on the study. "We observed over 40 clusters in liquid. We were able to see how the chemical products change the microenvironment, creating larger water clusters."
"In models, it isn't easy to see what mixes at the surfaces. We provided a glimpse of what's really at the surface -- or the mixing state that is important to interfacial changes."
-Dr. Xiao-Ying Yu
Why It Matters: Meeting the demand for energy through new fuels, energy efficiency and carbon sequestration requires knowing how materials form to, in turn, control that formation and produce materials by the boxcar and barrel. This study offers insights into how chemical building blocks -- glyoxal, water, and hydrogen peroxide -- chain together, or nucleate, to form materials. In addition, the work offers insights into nucleation reactions involving glyoxal in the air. In the atmosphere, these reactions lead to particles that affect cloud formation and climate.
Summary: Many of the steps are known in using glyoxal with hydrogen peroxide to form dicarboxylic acids and chains of hydrocarbons, known as oligomers. These oligomers are also the starting materials for troubling atmospheric aerosols, known as secondary organic aerosols. The problem was that not all of the steps were known and that one desirable instrument, secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), couldn't be used to track the products formed. It wasn't possible to use SIMS on a liquid sample. That's where SALVI comes in. Formally known as the System for Analysis at the Liquid Vacuum Interface, SALVI lets imaging instruments such as SIMS study liquids exposed to air. With the SALVI and SIMS combination, researcher can follow the reactions in real time and in a realistic environment.
The chemical nucleation reaction is kick started by ultraviolet light. With the SALVI, which is small enough to fit in the palm of your hard, set inside the SIMS, the team examined what happened when the chemicals received ultraviolet light for up to 8 hours.
But the team also wanted to know what happened when the lights went out. They looked at how the reactions progressed when held in the dark for up to 8 hours. Different reactions occurred in the dark than in the light. Surprisingly, the team found the reactions didn't stop when the energy source, the light, did.
Using SALVI in SIMS, located at DOE's EMSL, the team also created a chemical spatial map of the air-liquid interface. That is, they identified the chemicals and their location in tiny divots on the liquid's surface. "In models, it isn't easy to see what mixes at the surfaces," said Yu. "We provided a glimpse of what's really at the surface -- or the mixing state that is important to interfacial changes."
As an added bonus, SALVI let the team observe 43 to 44 water clusters in the sample. Typically, computational models run on supercomputers model 10 to 12 water clusters. In seeing the clusters, the team determined how the chemical products created an increasingly hydrophobic surface that, in turn, pushed the water together and created larger water clusters. "SALVI is the only technique that can provide molecular mapping of water clusters and ion clusters in liquid to the best of our knowledge," said Yu.

This popular seaside resort is great for a day at the beach, cultural activities or museums. Enjoy this wonderful part of Flanders.
Oostende is just over the Belgian border, making it the perfect place for a lovely seaside holiday close to home. There are a number of museums and monuments commemorating Oostende's war history. It's a great way of combining relaxing days at the beach with cultural activities.
Oostende started as a little village in the eastern tip of an island off the coast of Belgium. Land reclamation enabled it to grow into the city it is today. A number of wars between the 15th and the 19th centuries have unfortunately destroyed most of the historic city centre.
Learn about the tough life at sea on Museumship Amandine, a ship that trawled Iceland's waters in the 1960s and is now a museum. The Noordzeeaquarium is also worth visiting. From here it's a 5-minute walk to the neo-Gothic Sint-Petrus-en-Pauluskerk. History buffs will appreciate Fort Napoleon, which the French Emperor built in 1811 to defend the city against the English. Looking for more history? You'll find lots of it at the Atlantic Wall, an open-air museum with bunkers and an underground tunnel system built by the Germans in World War II.
The village is on the coast so you can also go for long walks on the beach while enjoying fantastic views of the ocean and coastline. The area also lends itself to bicycle tours. Take your own bicycle with you or hire one when you get there and take one of the routes through the flat landscape.
If you're planning on travelling to Oostende by car, the city is just off a major motorway which is reached via Antwerp and Ghent. Oostende is also easy to reach by train. From Amsterdam, for example, you only have to change trains once at Antwerp Central Station. Take the coast tram (Kusttram) to reach other resorts along the coast.
Whatever your wishes, Oostende has something for everyone. Come see for yourself!

Keep up to date with the latest news and announcements relating to Council's projects and services. Please contact Council if the information you require is not displayed.
Whitsunday Regional Council has today resolved to call for a request for tender to engage a specialist consultant to work with the Mayor and Councillors to develop a region-wide Economic Development Strategy.
Mayor Andrew Willcox said that the development of an Economic Development Strategy will provide a platform to strengthen the local economy and ensure the Whitsunday Region is well placed for a sustainable future.
"The Strategy will determine our vision for growth and allow Council to reposition its priorities in relation to economic development; we need to determine the most effective use of Council funds in this area and achieve outcomes that are positive for the whole region," Mayor Willcox said.
"We are so fortunate to have a diverse economy driven by the agriculture, construction, mining and tourism industries, but it's no secret that many local businesses and towns in our region have been struggling for some time," he said.
"With the recent separation of Tourism & Economic Development from the former Whitsundays Marketing & Development, Council recognises the need to take the lead and work with industry and government partners that can help us to advocate and deliver on the priorities that we identify in the new strategy.
"Economic development is all about community wellbeing and knowing what the best opportunities are for our region; I'm confident we have a positive future ahead of us."

US stock futures dip ahead of economic data
U.S. stock futures are slightly lower ahead of updates on the health of the job market and manufacturing industry.
Economic reports have often been discouraging since the spring, and weak data helped knock the S&P 500 index down by 1.4 percent last month.
Later Wednesday, payroll processor ADP will give an update on how many jobs private companies added last month. It may offer a preview of the government's more comprehensive report on Friday.
Economists expect another report from the Institute for Supply Management to show the manufacturing industry is still growing, but at a slower pace.
Ahead of the opening bell, Dow Jones industrial average futures are down 13 at 12,545. S&P 500 futures are down 1.10 points at 1,342.80. Nasdaq 100 futures are down 3 at 2,368.75.

Encouraging kids to exercise and play outside should be a foremost priority of a family-oriented community such as Somersett. Kids playing basketball in front of their homes, perhaps even with Mom or Dad on a special occasion, is a sight that is essential to American suburban life. I strongly support allowing basketball hoops on driveways in Somersett – out in back if the placement of the house allows for that, or out in the front if that's where the driveway is.
Homeowner's Forum: Basketball hoops
Current CC&Rs forbid basketball hoops from being installed permanently in front of the house and require portable hoops to be stowed out-of-sight after use.
Some residents have suggested that revisions to these guidelines are warranted based on the fact that Somersett is a family community and that child obesity and obsessions with screens are a problem in our society. Making it easier for children to play basketball would have a positive influence on our children's lives. Portable hoops are heavy and hard to maneuver. Suggestions include instituting a 48-hour rule or allowing the hoops to be placed a certain distance from the street.
Others argue that there are plenty of recreational opportunities for children in and around the Club. Relaxing the rules on basketball hoops would create a multitude of problems such as noise complaints and would be a disservice to the community.
What do you think? Discussion is encouraged.
12 thoughts on "Homeowner's Forum: Basketball hoops"
Basketball hoops should not be in or encroach upon roadways, sidewalks, or common areas, for safety reasons. The SOA provides hoops in the parks and at the Club to help fight childhood obesity and as an alternative to "screen time". Plus the whole family can enjoy the park or the Club, in line with Somersett's family community.
Please allow well maintained basketball hoops! They help to foster friendships, allow us to get to know our neighbors, be active, keep an eye on the neighborhood …it will help show a sense of community.
With the hoops in our driveways we can keep our kids close and safe and busy in a healthy way. Parents cannot always drive their kids to the club and sit and watch them play
We have noise regulations that can be maintained and we can be respectful of our neighbors. If problems occur, we can address them. Let's give this a shot!
Thank you for considering.
We enjoy our well maintained neighborhoods and hiking trails and do not like to see play equipment left in front yards day after day.
We should allow basketball hoops in our family friendly community. If we allow them in our parks, why wouldn't we allow them in our driveways? This helps us keep a closer eye on our kids. Kids also make friends, create skills & healthy physical and mental habits when we allow them to shoot hoops or have a pick up game on a whim. Some kids even want to practice for their school basketball team at home. There have been a number of occasions when my boys have asked me to get the hoop out & I cannot do it myself because it's too cumbersome for me to get out myself & I have to tell them to wait till their dad gets home. Having new guidelines would be a smart thing for our children on many levels. Of course, we will be mindful & respectful of noise levels & maintenance. Let's make recreation a priority in our community. This would be an easy way to do it. I appreciate your consideration.
Living in this beautiful community from August of 2003, it has been an absolute shame not to allow basketball hoops in driveways! Allowing kids to exercise, be at home playing with their friends, and simply be able to go outside on their own to shoot hoops is something that should be welcomed in a family community. My kids have grown up playing in a very crowded sport court, being kicked out of the sport court for group fitness classes(which is what the upstairs fitness room should be used for) and we have watched the community out grow the town center. In result, my kids rarely use the town center anymore. It's really too bad and I'm hoping you will consider changing the rule for future young families in this community.
I do not agree with this. Unfortunately, the children rarely use these and they just become an eyesore to the surrounding neighbors (and dangerous considering the winds we have in Somersett). My last neighborhood in Damonte Ranch had three portable basketball hoops within a cul-de-sac out all the time that were rarely used. They blew over all the time in the wind (once almost hitting a parked car), and the parents didn't understand how frustrating it was to the other five houses on the block…hence one of the reasons we moved to Somersett with an SOA. There are so many great things for children to do in Somersett. I hope this is not allowed as we all need to be respectful of our neighbors. It is of course nice to see children playing outside, but it's also nice to see things put away when they are not in use.
Absolutely! I am 100% in favor of allowing permanent hoops and/or having the 48 hour rule. Our home is 4 roundabouts away from the Park and Town Center. This means my children have to walk/ride a bike close to 2 miles to get to the nearest basketball hoops if I couldn't drive them. It also involves crossing the parkway no less than 4 times, which we all know crossing the parkway requires taking your life into your own hands, I don't even like doing it as an adult. Families should have the right to let their kids play in/at their own homes.
Outside play is essential for the development of healthy, well-adjusted kids. I don't know how playing basketball in the front yard would create any more noise than playing in the backyard or than riding bikes in front yards, playing football in front yards/streets, etc. I'm with Grant, let's give this a shot!
We really need to rethink the current restrictions. I agree with Stephanie's comments above that the public hoops are NOT easily accessible to all the kids (distance, safety, quantity). My kids aren't old enough to go to the park or use the Town Center alone.
I don't love the look of the portable hoops, but right now they are the only option and they are a total pain to "hide" after use. We are also part of a very nice community in Truckee (in general far more restrictive on aesthetic guidelines) and they allow permanent hoops on the homes, they just have to be painted to match the exterior. They honestly blend right in with the rest of the home and are not obtrusive or ugly at all. They can't blow over and injure anyone or damage property, and they don't have to be put away after each use.
I would be in favor of allowing permanent hoops for sure!
My family and I are in support of allowing well-maintained permanent basketball hoops in our neighborhood's driveways. On several occasions, we have taken our children to the town center to shoot hoops in the gym, only to find Yoga classes or other non-basketball activities taking place. Though we are grateful for their presence and use them when we can, the park and Club hoops are not always as accessible as they may seem. For the safety of our children, portable hoops that are tough enough to withstand the winds our community sustains must be extremely heavy, making them difficult to move in and out of garages. Light hoops that are easier to move can blow down or be pulled over, potentially injuring our children. Playing basketball, whether on a portable (currently compliant) or permanent hoop generates the same amount of noise, so allowing tasteful hoops to remain in the driveways of our residents does not change the existing noise levels. Other high-end communities in our area allow for permanent basketball hoops and they are hardly noticed, unless you are intentionally looking for them. Therefore, it is possible to allow the hoops, without sacrificing the aesthetics of our neighborhoods. Our community is so wonderful and relaxing the guidelines for basketball hoops in driveways enhances the family lifestyle the majority of our community seems to desire.
Just like the other aesthetic rules about home condition and yard condition, we can apply these to basketball hoops. Broken and damaged hoops need to be fixed. I have never seen the sidewalks that crowded with walkers that a b-ball hoop would interfere. Kids can put hockey nets in the street or ride bikes all over. Everyone needs to be aware of their surroundings which includes cars, people and neighbors. Move or pause your game if someone needs to get through. Don't play after hours when you know it bugs your neighbors. Drive slowly through your neighborhoods so you aren't surprised by an errant ball or kid. Overall just respect others.
As someone who lives at the end of a cul-de-sac and has a portable hoop, it is definitely unifies our neighborhood. Kids play on it all the time from our street. Especially during the summer months, when the kids are home, they play on it every day. However, I would also agree that they are not without the need to upkeep and/or additional rules. Some possibilities could be:
– Hoops allowed out for a set period of time, like 9a-9p, or from sunup to sundown, 9a to sundown, or something like that. Perhaps also a consideration for when kids are on school breaks.
I guess we could just use Washoe County's schedule, or even a "summer hours/winter hours" schedule.
– Should be weighed down appropriately due to wind considerations. I have 300+ lbs of sand and sandbags on ours.
– Should be on a generally level street or Cul-de-sac.
– Should be in front of your own house
– General aesthetic considerations – i.e. must be UP when outside – not on its side or laying down, should not be up overnight, etc. We currently have rules for people parking on the street for extended periods of time – the same may apply to hoops on the street as well.
Those are just ideas, but I think that considering the revision of the rules surrounding these hoops is definitely worth discussing formally by the SOA. Many of the aforementioned points are valid – distance/availability of the Somersett hoops, respecting neighbors, etc. If these hoops become a problem, then we can have further discussions, but I dont think that means we cant try it out and see.

February is here, which means that Valentine's Day is now less than two weeks away. If you've not yet thought of a gift for your other half, you can be forgiven, as it does seem like only five minutes ago we were frantically choosing Christmas presents.
The old and now cliched presents of flowers and chocolates can still be romantic, but if you want to show that you've thought a little outside of the box this year, have a read through our Valentine's gift ideas for the leading lady in your life.
Instead of the usual flowers
We think the best part of receiving flowers is their smell; a bouquet will inevitably die, but even then, that sweet floral scent often lingers on. Sadly, they have to be binned eventually, along with their fragrance.
But by giving your partner a present themed around their favourite blooms instead, you'll be essentially giving them the gift of that gorgeous floral fragrance that will last a lot longer than flowers in a vase.

Think about the flowers that they love the most and opt for a reed diffuser in a scent that features notes of the aroma that usually makes them swoon. Our Neroli Rose Reed Diffuser and our Sweet Pea & Rose Reed Diffuser are perfect for lovers of sweet yet pungent blooms, while our Cherry Blossom Reed Diffuser is a little different thanks to the addition of amber, and the White Dahlia Reed Diffuser provides a muskier aroma, with added vanilla, oud, patchouli and, of course, musk.
For the foodie
Buying recipe books or kitchen equipment can be a bit of a risky zone if you want to avoid seeming like you're reinforcing traditional gender stereotypes. But if your partner loves cooking and is a bit of a foodie, a more romantic choice of gift could be a candle inspired by their favourite cooking aromas.
If they've got a sweet tooth and are a keen baker, our Vanilla Custard Candle in a Can or our Strawberry Candle in a Can would make lovely gifts, allowing them to enjoy the smell of their favourite sweet treats without any effort in the kitchen whatsoever.
Meanwhile, for savoury lovers, our Black Olives Candle in a Can offers a really different fragrance reminiscent of Mediterranean dishes. And while the Garden Pea Candle in a Can and Tomato & Herb Candle in a Can might sound unusual, they're beautifully fresh and not at all overpowering, making them the perfect addition to your dining table. Planning to cook on Valentine's night? Add one of these to the dinner table to really impress.
For the keen gardener
If your other half loves nothing more than pottering about in the garden, change up your present buying from the usual plants - and the incredibly unromantic trowel - and go for something to help them pamper themselves after a busy day digging and repotting instead.
Image credit: Halfpoint via iStock
Our Gardener's Soap Bar, which is both moisturising and exfoliating thanks to the addition of essential oils, poppy seeds, oatmeal and spices, would be a lovely option, letting them clean themselves up, smell more girly than earthy and get all of that stubborn dirt out of their fingernails after a hard day's gardening.
For the busy mum who deserves a pamper
Sometimes, the constant routine of work and family life can get in the way of us showing our partners just how much we appreciate them and how much they really mean to us. You don't have to go all out on Valentine's Day with a fancy meal or special date night - you could show them how much you love them by giving them the night off from their usual duties.
Put together a little pamper pack to make your gift extra special. We recommend one of our natural exfoliating Body Scrubs, a gorgeous Soap Bar, Bath Melts and a Candle in a Tin that they can light as they lie back, relax and enjoy a well-deserved break.

Welcome to the House of F.I Podcast!
Friends! We have some exciting news to announce…Girl.FI.day will be partnering with an amazing mom-prenuer, Timika Downes – from The Reluctant Frugalist, in launching a "family focused" podcast very soon. Timika and I are both passionate about achieving Financial Independence and taking as many other parents on the journey with us. We both are busy working moms and entrepreneurs. We both understand the unique challenges families face who also want to be debt free, save fiercely and achieve financial independence in the pursuit their best lives.
Our goal is to showcase quality guests as well as share the experiences of other parents on this journey. It can be a lonely road, especially in a culture that thrives on consumerism. Have you ever been met with blank stares when attempting to share what you are doing with family and friends? Yeah been there too! Sadly, many either don't understand what we are trying to achieve or are simply not interested. So with that in mind, we hope to grow a community where you feel comfortable sharing and growing – and embracing your financial nerdom. We love weird!
We are currently in the production stage and hope to have finished editing our first several episodes in the coming weeks. Stay Tuned!
In the meantime, you can follow me here at girlFIday as I will be posting updates regularly.
You can also like and follow our House of FI Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/Houseoffi/
Timika can be found over at The Reluctant Frugalist Blog– give her some LOVE too!
Check back soon!

Joining VeloClub not only supports the work we do, there are some fantastic benefits:
by Matt de Neef
April 16, 2018
In today's edition of the CT Daily News Digest: Michael Valgren wins Amstel Gold from late attack; World champion Blaak outsprints Brand to win women's Amstel Gold; Steele von Hoff takes gold in Commonwealth Games fairytale finish; Chloe Hosking sprints to Comm Games gold; Matthews devastated by bad luck in Amstel Gold Race; Multiple fractures for Lucy Kennedy after Amstel Gold crash; Froome doesn't want to give a running commentary on salbutamol case; Fabio Felline sidelined until late May with toxoplasmosis; Bora extends sponsorship through 2021; HiRide tests smart suspension at the cobbled classics; What it takes to ride the break at Amstel Gold Race.
Danish rider Michael Valgren (Astana) took a two-rider sprint to win the 53rd edition of the men's Amstel Gold Race Sunday in Valkenberg, beating out former Amstel winners Roman Kreuziger (Mitchelton-Scott), and Enrico Gasparotto (Bahrain-Merida). World champion Peter Sagan (Bora-Hansgrohe) won a small bunch sprint for fourth just ahead of Alejandro Valverde (Movistar).
It was the second big win of the spring classics season for 26-year-old Valgren, who also won Omloop Het Nieuwsblad on February 24, and a bit of redemption after finishing second to Gasparotto from a two-man sprint in 2016.
"It is kind of my thing now," said Valgren, when reminded that his victory from earlier this year also came in a late move. "It worked in Nieuwsblad, I did the same in the Tour of Flanders with Gilbert, and also today. I think if you don't try, you don't win. I would never beat them [Sagan, Valverde and others] in a sprint. I have a decent sprint, but I would never win. So I had everything to win and nothing to lose, because I was second here once. I wasn't riding for second again.
"I had to attack, but I had a really good help from Jakob [Fuglsang], who was setting up the pace and making the other guys tired. I can thank him and the rest of the team a lot for this victory."
The race is always a whittling down process and a select group went clear over the top of the Bemelerberg, five kilometres from the line. Valgren, Kreuziger and Gasparotto were there, as were Sagan, Valverde, Tim Wellens (Lotto-Soudal), Jakob Fuglsang (Astana) and Julian Alaphilippe (QuickStep Floors). Valgren tried with four kilometres left but was hauled back; he went again two kilometres later, and was joined by first Kreuziger and then Gasparotto.

Helloooooooo, friends!!!!
So here I am again! Life has been busy, but settling out a little. And I feel like doing a fun post for once, so here ya go! 🙂
Seeing… the beautiful snow outside today.
Hearing… little sisters giggle their heads off while supposedly cleaning up after supper.
Tasting… Mom's delicious blueberry lush (and it's even sugar free!).
Needing… sleep, and a lot of it. 🙂
Wanting… to go on another mission trip to Jamaica…really bad.

What will Wolves do with Mike Beasley after marijuana citation?
Minnetonka Police say Minnesota Timberwolves forward Michael Beasley was cited for marijuana possession and speeding in Minnetonka last week. Beasley was pulled over on June 26 for speeding around 3 a.m. on Interstate 394 and Carlson Parkway. He was clocked at 84 mph in a 65 mph zone. Police also found 16.2 grams of marijuana in Beasley's vehicle.
HoopsVibe's Very Quick Call: We were wrong.
We were wrong to think Michael Beasley was passed this. We wrong to think he left his troubles at the clubs in South Beach. And were wrong to applaud his fine season with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
He fooled us. All of us.
Reports indicate police pulled Beasley over for speeding last week and found 16 grams of marijuana in his vehicle.
This is not a good look for anyone, especially a pro athlete who has battled addiction and mental health issues.
Clearly, Miami's nightlife wasn't the issue. The issue is Beasley, who found trouble in quiet Minnesota. Once again, he has slipped. Once again, he needs help.
Then there's the basketball side of this. The Timberwolves seemed interested in giving Beasley a multi-year extension when the lockout ended.
They'll reconsider. In fact, they'll probably pass.
Expect the Wolves to commit more resources, time, and money to developing second overall pick Derrick Williams, a talented and athletic forward with none of Beasley's baggage.
Problem is, there won't be much of a market for Beasley. Few, if any, teams will take a chance on him via trade or by floating an offer in free agency.
He still has time; time to change. Just ask Lamar Odom, Chris Webber, and Jason Williams. The clock is ticking, though.
Hopefully, Beasley gets it right. And fast.
–Oly Sandor.

About Sabie
Sabie is a forestry town situated on the banks of the Sabie River in Mpumalanga, South Africa. The name Sabie is derived from the Tsonga Shangaan word "Ulusaba" which means fearful. The Shangaan called this river Ulusaba because the river was once teeming with dangerous Nile crocodiles and as a result, the Tsonga Shangaan people dubbed it Ulusaba (fearful river). The word Ulusaba was modernized by the Afrikaner colonialists who changed it from Ulusaba Shangaan into the Afrikaans version "Sabie". The town was started after H.T. Glynn and J.C. Ingle found gold there and formed the Glynns-Lydenburg Gold Mining Company.
Sabie is located 360 kilometres east of Johannesburg and is 64 kilometres west of the popular Kruger National Park. It is known for its scenery and beautiful waterfalls, and is a popular tourist destination. Its main industry is forestry. The plantations surrounding Sabie form one of the world's largest man-made forests.
It is situated approximately 1,000 metres (3,281 feet) above sea level and is in the summer rainfall area. During the winter period, there is little rainfall, and the area can become intensely dry. Forest fires are prevalent during this time, therefore precautions are taken before hand to create fire breaks, as well as to incorporate block burning
Sabie is also a tourism based town and relies on the steady flow of tourists year round to keep the community economy going. There are many attractions in and around the town itself. Of these the most popular is the Lone Creek Falls about 10 km (6 mi) outside of town. There are many other waterfalls in the area, such as Maria Shire, Horseshoe, Forest Falls and of course the Sabie River falls situated within the town itself.

Licensed to make his mark
SUNSHINE Coast talent Luke Farrell is primed to make his mark on the world triathlon circuit this year after being granted a professional licence in the under-23 category.
The 18-year-old is set to contest a host of Continental Cup events in Australia and overseas, starting with Sunday's Oceania Cup race at Mooloolaba.
His coach, Dan Atkins, said yesterday: "We've still got to work it out, but we're looking at a trip to Asia and Europe.
"Nothing is set in concrete but we're going to map out a plan overseas, where I'd like him to chase points.
Atkins said his young charge had undoubted talent and could force his way through the elite ranks with some strong showings on the international stage.
"This year will be about getting experience and gaining as many points as possible. It's going to be a two, three-years plan that we need to put in place," he said.
Farrell burst on to the scene when he claimed victory in the under-19 world sprint championships at Beijing last year, three months after linking with Atkins.
His father, Michael, said: "That win set up everything for him. It gave him a lot of opportunities.
"But he won't be going to the world championships in Auckland, because he's focusing on these Continental Cup races now."
The Continental Cup circuit is essentially the third tier of elite racing, behind World Championship Series events and World Cup Series events.
Michael said: "He will basically focus on the European and Asian circuits. That's what he's targeting. There is bit of travel, but that's what the kid wants to do, so who am I to say no."
Farrell will also become eligible for invitation to World Cup events, depending on his accrued competition points.
Once approved by Triathlon Australia, Farrell is set to race in Japan, Europe and Hong Kong before returning home to prepare for the Noosa Triathlon.
It is hoped he will be mixing it with the world's best elite triathletes in two to four years.
Farrell is one of several Sunshine Coast athletes set to compete in this weekend's Oceania Cup race.
Chloe Turner and Kirra Seidel are expected to line up in the women's field.

Award-winning gin distillery to move into historic Norwich building
PUBLISHED: 17:00 05 September 2018 | UPDATED: 17:19 05 September 2018
An award-winning gin distillery might be moving into central Norwich and setting up tours and tastings.
Bullards has submitted a planning application to change the use of Crystal House on Cattle Market Street from retail to light industrial use, in a move that will help the firm quadruple its gin production.
Established in 1837 and reborn in 2015, Bullards is the first gin distillery in Norwich for more than 150 years.
Bullards is looking for the Grade II building to house its new handmade 600 litre copper still from Kothe in Stuttgart, Germany.
A second phase of planning is in the pipeline for 2019 that will see the site become a tourist attraction and destination, offering tours and tastings plus a bar and restaurant.
Crystal House was erected in 1862 and has since become a landmark within the city of Norwich with its large glass façade and cast-iron supports.
Standing empty since December 2016, the sites' historical and architectural importance will be preserved by Bullards and more than 20 additional staff will be employed when phase two is complete. The gin firm will maintain the sites' original light industrial use, distilling and bottling.
Bullards has recently scooped silver and bronze awards at the International Wine and Spirit Competition as well as winning two Great Taste Awards.
Richard Pratt, owner of Crystal House said: "When Bullards first contacted me about the proposal, I was intrigued! "It will be so nice to return the building back to an industrial use and to see the site become a destination for people in Norwich. I look forward to what the future holds for Bullards."
Bullards will be unveiling their The Spirit of Norwich branding and new distinctive bottles next month, playing homage to its brewing history.
The company has also recently signed a three-year partnership with Norwich City Football Club, to become their exclusive gin supplier in the restaurant and bar areas. The first batch of their latest product, Old Tom Gin, will be produced in time for Christmas.
John G Bullard, great-great-grandson of the founder and board director, added: "Bullards occupation in 2018 of Crystal House is a cause of great celebration and optimism for the future."

Fbailey story number 220 Pool Table Back in the early 1960's when I was a young teenager my father bought us a pool table. Soon I was spending every minute that I could playing pool. It was different in those days. We didn't have computers, cell phones, or any electronic games to play. What we did have was a deck of cards, a Monopoly game, and three channels on our small black and white television.
I listened to the radio a lot back in those days. Amazingly I could easily pick up WABC out of New York City, WBZ in Boston, and WOWO in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I listened mostly to Cousin Brucie back in those days but now I wished that I had listened to Wolfman Jack more. I also went to the Movie Theater often because I could get in for a quarter. I loved Creature From The Black Lagoon, Black Scorpion, and just about anything science fiction.
I loved the westerns on television too. Then in early January 1962 I saw 'Twist Around the Clock' with Chubby Checker performing his latest hit 'The Peppermint Twist' from his nightclub called The Peppermint Lounge in New York City.
The girls in the audience were dancing in the aisles of the theater and I got up to join them. That's when my life changed…for the better. I went from a nerd to cool dude in just a matter of seconds, even though it took me another twenty-two years to realize that I was a nerd…thanks to the movie 'Revenge of the Nerds' in 1984.
I found that listening to Rock and Roll music and shacking my hips to the beat actually improved my pool skills. I watched Minnesota Fats on television and would practice his tricks until I could do almost all of them.
By the time I turned fifteen years old I was the best pool player in my town. I didn't hustle if that's what you were thinking but I never had to pay for a game either.
There would be quarters lined up on the edge of the pool table from guys just waiting to play me and loose. The pool halls were full of guys that thought that they were better than I was.
I proved them wrong every time but a few of them actually gave me a run for my money. My kid sister Josephine turned fourteen just two days after my fifteenth birthday. Over the previous year she had grown up rather nicely.
She wore a bra most of the time because mom wouldn't quit bitching at her until she did, but she never did wear a panty girdle. However, Josephine did wear a garter belt to hold up her stockings.
We didn't have pantyhose back then either and seem less nylons were more expensive. Josephine always asked me to make sure that the seam in the back was straight for her. That required my kneeling on the floor behind her and her lifting her dress up above her knees. On rear occasions I got a quick look at her panties. In those days they were all white and mostly cotton, just like my Jockey shorts.
I had been so interested in practicing pool over the last year that I hadn't even noticed that my kid sister had grown up. She didn't look like Claudette Ann Radison but she sure was getting pretty. Josephine knew that I was in love with Claudette Ann Radison. She called her 'CAR' for short. Then one day Josephine asked me to teach her how to play pool. I shrugged her off but she wouldn't take no for an answer.
Finally out of desperation she said that she would just play in her panties if I would teach her. Just her panties! Oh my God! Of course I said yes to that. I had never seen a pair of boobs before in my life. Dad had a few issues of Playboy but he kept them hidden from me. The best time to teach Josephine how to play pool in her panties was right after school for an hour or so.
Dad was not home from work at that time and mom was preparing supper, so it was perfect. Josephine would go up to her bedroom and change into a loose fitting dress, removing her bra, and then she would come down into the basement with me. I still remember that first time that Josephine slowly lifted her dress up over her head as she removed it revealing her bare breasts to me.
I was simply amazed. They were nicely shaped and had sweet little pink caps on them with tiny hard nipples centered perfectly. When I asked her if I could touch them she said maybe, but first I had to teach her how to play pool. She was not too bad at it but I gave her some pointers to help her out.
All she really needed was a few hundred hours of practice like I had put in. Meanwhile I had a constant erection from watching Josephine bend over and her big white panties stretched tightly across her firm ass. I watched her as she held the cue stick in both of her hands and slipped it between her bare hanging breasts to hit the cue ball.
It was almost hypnotic.
When a fast song came on the radio Josephine would twitch her hips like I did, but with her wearing just her white cotton panties I could see every one of her muscles twitch in beat to the drum. Then 'Wipe Out' came on. Josephine stood up, put her cue stick down, and faced me as we danced together.
I stared at her nipples as they stood out hard and proud and jiggled around like they were going to fall off or something. Just as soon as 'Wipe Out' finished 'The Peppermint Twist' came on. Josephine and I had danced to that one before but when we were fully dressed. This time when we went down low I saw that the crotch of her panties were moist and not from sweat because our basement never got that warm.
The moisture dampened the material enough so as to become partially transparent allowing me to see her dark patch of pubic hair. Everyone in our family had dark brown hair and brown eyes.
All too soon the song ended and she went back to practicing. Before dad got home mom hollered down for us to get cleaned up for supper. Josephine told me that I had done a good job instructing her and that I deserved a reward. She said that I could feel of her breasts for a whole minute and then she stood before me. I reached out and touched my first boob. I don't know if a whole minute went by or not because I was suspended in time with my sister's breasts in my hands.
Finally the spell was broken when Josephine stepped back and slipped her dress down over her head. She asked me if we could do that again the next day. I laughingly told her that learning to play pool was very difficult and that it could take years. Josephine smiled and simply said, "Okay." After about a week of teaching my sister to play pool in just her panties Josephine asked me if I wanted to see Claudette's tits. Oh hell yes!
Claudette was a goddess in my eyes. Every boy in school dreamed about Claudette when they jerked off at night. On a scale of one to ten she was a twelve without question. Claudette was even prettier than Annette Funicello from the Mickey Mouse Club was. I had been in love with Claudette since the third grade, even before she got her tits. Her tiny waist and her big boobs gave her that hourglass figure like Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe. Josephine told me that she had been talking to CAT at school about learning to play pool.
CAT is CAR's younger sister. CAT is short for Cathleen Ann Turner. She is Claudette Ann Radison's younger sister. Their mother has had a few husbands over the years. They have two more sisters that are called CAB and CAN otherwise known as Cassandra Ann Bennett and Cynthia Ann Norton.
Currently their mother is looking for husband number five.
It seems that husband number four stuck around a lot longer than any of the others had. None of her other marriages lasted more than a year. Anyway Josephine said that she could get CAT to come over for pool lessons and then that CAT could get Claudette to come over too. Really? It seemed to far fetched to work but Josephine said that it would work out just fine.
So I said, "Okay!" That afternoon Josephine and I played pool until another Chubby Checker song came on the radio called 'Limbo Rock.' I held the pool stick while Josephine danced underneath it a few times. She was really good at it too. I had seen her and her girlfriends do it quite often but never just in her panties before. I knew that my sister could dance under a stick that was just twelve inches off the floor.
I watched as she spread her legs and her moist panties stretched across her pussy. After her belly got under the stick she lifted her knees up and slipped her breasts underneath it. Then as her head came under the bar her pussy mound was up high in the air and I reached out and grabbed it with my hand. Josephine simply finished getting through the obstacle and then stood up.
I thought that she would be mad at me but she wasn't.
What she wanted was to feel my cock since I had felt her pussy. Fair enough but then she insisted that I had to drop my pants to my ankles and let her feel my cock through my underwear like I had her pussy.
Okay! So she felt my rock hard cock until I cum in my underwear. It didn't really take much at all because I had been so excited. I was embarrassed about it but Josephine thought that it was cute and told me that she has an orgasm every time that we have a pool lesson. Really? Girls cum too? Oh yes and even more often that we boys do too.
She told me that was why her panties were always damp around me. She said that she wanted me to teach her how to play pool in just my underwear after that. Okay! Well a couple of days later Josephine brought Cathleen home for her first pool lesson. This time they just came straight downstairs to me. Normally Josephine had changed up in her bedroom and come down a little more prepared. However in the last two weeks nothing had happened and mom was not suspicious of anything.
So the two girls came down in their school clothes. Josephine was not the least bit shy about getting undressed in front of me any more, however Cathleen was. So I undressed too and then together we stood there in our underwear waiting for Cathleen to undress. At fourteen she was almost as pretty as her fifteen-year-old sister was. Cathleen eventually undressed down to her panties too. Her breasts were a little smaller than Josephine's breasts were but her nipples and areola were much darker in color as was her skin tone.
Her father had some Mediterranean blood that gave Cathleen a darker complexion. Cool! All I knew was that Cathleen had the second set of breasts that I had ever looked at. We played pool but we stopped to dance every time that a nice fast song came on. At the end of our lesson time a nice slow song came on and Josephine told Cathleen to dance with me. I held her naked breasts to my bare chest as we swayed to the music. My hands drifted down to her fine ass. My cock started to grow pretty good at that point but Cathleen didn't say anything.
After the song ended and we parted Cathleen just looked at my crotch. My cock had formed a pretty good tent in my underwear. Josephine came over and held it for a while and then told Cathleen too hold it too. While she did, I held my hand to her crotch cupping her nice warm mound like I had my sister's mound.
We held that position for a while and then I felt of her breasts as my sister told Cathleen to stroke my cock until I cum. She was simply amazed and very excited to jerk me off. What really surprised me was when she reached into my underwear to hold onto it. Cathleen was the first girl to ever touch my cock like that. To be fair I slipped my hand down into Cathleen's panties brushing her pubic hair with the palm of my hand.
Josephine started giving me lessons on how to masturbate a girl. Soon I was poking my finger up into Cathleen's wet vagina and rubbing her little clitoris briskly. Shortly we came together in the greatest orgasms of our life. It was absolutely fantastic. Cathleen decided that she did not want to share me with her older sister just yet, so for a full week she got my undivided attention and even my sister stayed out of it during our lessons.
However at bedtime Josephine made sure to get her hand on my cock and my hand in her panties. We really enjoyed jerking each other off before going to sleep. I know that I had almost stopped jerking off after that.
That week flew by but I sure got to feel Cathleen up a lot. In fact the last two days we all took off our underwear too and played around in the nude. I got very good at pressing my chest into Cathleen's back while I cupped one of her breasts and fingered her clit at the same time.
Meanwhile Cathleen would reach between her legs and stroke my cock until I shot gobs of cum onto the basement floor.
Then she would lick her hand clean afterwards. Finally Claudette joined us for lessons in playing pool. Her sister Cathleen had briefed her as to what to expect. Claudette tried not to act too shy as we all undressed in our basement to begin our pool lessons.
As we had done the last couple of times we stripped completely naked. Only we never did play pool that first day. Claudette and I made out for the whole hour with our sisters encouraging us to go further and further. I sucked my first nipple and I licked my first pussy that day.
Claudette felt her first cock in her hand and in her mouth. She even swallowed a load of cum before she even realized it and the best part was that she liked the taste of my cum.
She brought me off three times in that hour, twice with her hand, and I gave her seven orgasms with my finger. She said that I had made her clit very tender. We kissed and we slow danced. It was wonderful. Claudette was my dream girl no more…she was my girlfriend.
The next day our sisters encouraged us to go to the final step. Claudette said that she wanted it too so I slipped my cock into her virgin pussy while our sisters cheered us on. I lifted her up onto the edge of the pool table and she opened up her legs for me.
I scored on the first plunge. It was the best feeling ever for me but Claudette said that it had hurt her just a little bit.
The longer I fucked her the more she liked it. Then I filled her pussy with my sperm. I fucked her twice that day and we both enjoyed it a lot.
She came with me that second time. The second day was just about the same with Claudette and I kissing, feeling, and fucking all the time while our sisters practiced playing pool. On the third day though she wouldn't take her panties off and she had a big pad in them.
That day I learned about periods and Claudette even let me get down and look inside her panties at the bloodstain on the pad. The forth day though Claudette showed my sister and I a tampon for the very first time. I even saw the string hanging out of her pussy.
Claudette's mother had asked her if she had had sex yet and she had answered yes. Her mother showed her how to insert the tampon and then gave her the birds and bees talk. Now it wasn't at all what my mother was going to tell my sister in a few years…that's for sure. She told Claudette that sex was fun and very enjoyable but that she should have me use a rubber for a little while.
She even gave Claudette a box of rubbers for me to use. She was also going to get Claudette on something called a birth control pill. Apparently it had been on the market for almost two years my then. Claudette's mother didn't mind that she was having sex but she didn't want to be a grandmother yet. I was also invited over to her house anytime that I wanted to have sex in Claudette's bedroom.
She shared her bedroom with Cathleen but that was alright too after she had the full story about our pool lessons. That Saturday Josephine and I were invited over for the day. Claudette's mother was very pretty. She sat us down with her four daughters and explained everything that we ever wanted to know about sex and then some.
She told us stuff that we already knew but that was more for the younger girl's benefit. We learned about masturbation, oral sex, anal sex, and various sexual positions. I was shocked when Claudette and I were asked to demonstrate some of the techniques for her younger sisters. But first Claudette's mother made sure that the doors were locked and that the drapes were closed.
Then she had all of us undress, including herself. We were all encouraged to fell up the other six people. I was in heaven. Mrs. Norton as she was still called was a real fully-grown woman. Her breasts were full and heavy, her nipples were big and suckable, and her pussy was puffy and very wet.
Her daughter Cassandra was thirteen years old and her youngest daughter Cynthia was twelve years old. They both had nice little breasts and small pussies with sparse hair on them. Of course I came not too long after getting jerked off by Mrs.
Norton. She caught my cum in her hand and then offered a taste to her daughters. Claudette and Cathleen had already tasted it first hand so Cassandra and Cynthia got most of it with Mrs. Norton cleaning up the rest. After Claudette and I had demonstrated sex with her on her back and me on top of her Mrs. Norton suggested that I demonstrate the doggy position on my own sister. Josephine and I had not had sex at that point but she was very willing to let me. I looked at Claudette and she nodded for me to continue.
After all she was my girlfriend now. So I slipped my cock into my sister's virgin pussy from behind while she was on her hands and knees. It was just as good as the first time that I had fucked Claudette only it was my own sister and it felt even better knowing that. After slamming my cock into her pussy for a while I came deep in her.
Next I was told to get on my back and then she had Cassandra get on top of me and mount me. All the while that I was fucking her thirteen-year-old daughter Mrs. Norton was telling the girls how great that position was for self enjoyment, beginners, and to satisfy a boy with a really big cock. That way she was in control and he couldn't hurt her too much.
After that Cynthia sucked my cock for a little while and then she too got on top of me for her first fuck. That day my sister and all three of Claudette's sisters lost their virginity to me. As a final demonstration I got to butt fuck Mrs.
Norton in front of her four daughters and my sister. She put some lubricant in her butt hole, on my cock, and then she got on her hands and knees. I just watched as her big tits hung low and swayed ever so nicely. I knelt behind her as five pair of eyes watched my cock enter her puckered asshole. Her butt was almost as tight as Cassandra and Cynthia's virgin pussies had been but it was so well lubricated that there was very little feeling.
I had cum twice already in my sister and in Cynthia but I really wanted to cum again in Mrs. Norton. After a very long period of time Mrs. Norton had an orgasm. That's when she clinched her butt cheeks tight and I got much more feeling.
I picked up my pace and soon filled her rectum with my hot sperm. Then Mrs. Norton demonstrated a lesbian sixty-nine to us using Claudette. After the demonstration she had the other four girls pair up and try it too. Then every girl had to try it with all of the other girls and with me. Sixty-nine soon became my favorite number.
Since then Claudette and I made love often and stayed together all through high school and college, then we got married…in 1969.
I told you that sixty-nine was my favorite number. The End Pool Table 220 Author's Comment: I have been submitting stories for a full year now.

Islanders Announce Trades
Charlottetown Islanders General Manager Grant Sonier announced two trades on Sunday.
In the first trade the Charlottetown Islanders traded forward Yan Pavel Laplante and defenseman Julien Leduc to the Victoriaville Tigre. In return the Islanders receive the Tigres 1st round draft picks in 2015 and 2016, as well as a 4th round pick in 2014.
"First round picks are always a valuable asset to an organization as they allow you to acquire or draft players that will help build your team and move it in the right direction going forward", says Islanders General Manager Grant Sonier.
"To acquire these high picks you must move key players such as Yan Pavel Laplante. Yan Pavel has been an important piece to this franchise for the past two and a half seasons and we wish him all the best going forward".
Sonier also added "Julien Leduc was a player we acquired at the start of the season to address a position we felt was lacking and we thank him for his efforts this season".
In a second trade The Charlottetown Islanders traded 19 year old forward Matthew Bursey to the Blainville-Boisbriande Armada. In return the Islanders receive 17 year old forward Matthew Cusson.
Cusson is a 6'01", 180 lbs forward from Dorval, Quebec. In 10 games this season with the Lachine Maroons of the QJAHL he has 8 goals and 3 assists along with 16 minutes in penalties.
"It is hard to see a player like Matthew Bursey leave as we feel he was sometimes underrated for what he brought to our hockey team", says Sonier. "In saying that we are very excited to add Matthew Cusson to our lineup. He is a young player coming from a very deep organization. He was having a very strong season in the QJAHL before suffering an eye injury. Now that he has fully recovered we expect to have jim in our lineup for the second half of the season.

How to Evaluate the Effectiveness of a Training Video
Studies have discovered that expertly created training videos provide faster training, high usage, versatility and much more consistently trained staff.
Choosing the correct video tutorial producer is very vital that you the prosperity of your video tutorial.
Video production houses frequently perform a full variety of video production services from television ads, filming workshops and live occasions, producing corporate videos and training videos. They may be broken into three groups – advertising commercial, live corporates or instructional-design producers.
For many training situations, instructional-design producer-authors are perfect for producing video enhanced workout sessions. These producers also possess greater expertise when controling detailed training materials.
The easiest method to assess if the video tutorial clients are producing training videos from your instructional design perspective would be to review the work they do and get the next questions:
Is the amount of information clear to see? Would a college age student have the ability to easily keep the messages?
May be the script written in a manner that engages? Or do you experience feeling as so if you are told to behave with a bossy teacher instead of being proven inside a friendly way?
That which was the interest rate like or even the video? Could it have been perfect, not fast enough or quick?
Was the information presented inside a logical, simple to follow sequence?
Was new material introduced before you decide to could absorb the prior information fully?
Were the job surroundings relevant? Could it have been attempting to be everything for a variety of industries or has it been customized for just one company?
Were the figures and situations proven realistically?
Were the preferred behaviours modeled in a manner that could be copied by employees?
Have there been things happening without anyone's knowledge which were distracting you against learning (eg: forklift hitting a pole)?
Were aspects of a procedure clearly proven so you could know very well what these were talking about? (eg: when discussing say, a 'stop' button on the machine it had been proven, which means you understood what it really looked loved)?
Have there been a lot of effects or graphics that required the interest from the messages, therefore reducing the potency of this program?
Were titles accustomed to reinforce details to allow staff to keep in mind and absorb information?
Should you be an worker of the company how does one experience them? Excited to become employed by them, comfortable concerning the new process or feeling like they just do not worry about their staff?
Were employees tested on their own understanding after watching a relevant video to improve mental effort, therefore improving motivation and comprehension?
By continuing to keep these questions in your mind when reviewing training videos, you'll be able to rapidly evaluate how effective working out video is going to be being an educational tool.
This will allow you to find the right video production provider instead of developing an worker video tutorial which will finish up getting dusty in your shelf.
In-house training content must be designed in budget and should be interesting, creative and unique all at once. If you need assistance for training video production in Singapore, consider finding an agency that has experience with similar projects and brands.

Today was presentation day for all of this year's delegates. So for this post, we are going to talk about what is important to remember when you are around people that you respect and may be a little afraid of.
When you are at a young age, you treat every person pretty much the same. You are mad at people when your mad, and happy with people when your happy.
As people get older, they tend to make pictures of other people in their mind, especially people in authority. This picture greatly changes how we act towards, or treat those people. Now sometimes this can be a good thing, but some people can get a bit carried away with the picture they paint of other people, and this can really effect how those people are treated. Also, another affect of painted grand pictures of people is being very awkward in front of them. This can be embarrassing and may leave you with a bad memory around that person.
So to some things up, it is important to act properly in whatever situation you are in and to never make false assumptions around people, but also remember that no one is perfect, and making mistake is alright. When you are talking to someone important or someone you respect, you must remember that most of the time they are on your side and want to see you do your best.
That's all for now!

What can you say about a week that featured four red cards, three scoreless draws and a rainout in just eight games?
Well, if you're following the age-old advice of moms everywhere, you might not want to say anything at all. Then again, you could say it's the exception that proves the rule: We've seen so much exciting stuff week in and week out in 2011 that when the needle dips a bit, the difference is glaring.
But it wasn't all dour, of course: There was a seven-goal thriller in Seattle, more last-gasp drama from Kansas City and the first road win in franchise history for Portland.
There was also some sensational goalkeeping and a surprising amount of action off the field.
Let's give it another look.
The More Things Change
MLS added two new teams this season, brought in dozens of new players and coaches and relocated a franchise from one conference to the other. But amid all the changes, one element remains the same: the superiority of the Western Conference.
The top three teams in the West (LA, Seattle, FC Dallas) all have more points than the first-place team in the East (Philadelphia), while the West's fourth-place team, Real Salt Lake, has just one fewer point than the Union—with two games in hand.
The hottest team among this in-form group are the Seattle Sounders, 4-3 winners over Colorado on Saturday in the most exciting game of the week — and one of the better games of the season.
It started with a bang, as Wells Thompson scored for the visitors in the first minute. The rowdy Seattle crowd was only temporarily silenced, though, as Álvaro Fernández answered just six minutes later with a nice muscling run and a great finish the far post.
The teams traded goals on either side of halftime to set the stage for a furious finish: Seattle went up 4–2 with goals in the 82nd and 84th minute, then Caleb Folan pulled one back for Colorado in the 89th.
It was another quality win for Seattle, who are 6-0-3 in their last nine, and have crept to within a point of first-place LA.
FC Dallas are three points behind Seattle after slogging through a scoreless tie with D.C. United in 100-degree temperatures at Pizza Hut Park, but the Hoops have two games in hand.
Speaking of games in hand, fourth-place Real Salt Lake, who were rained out at Vancouver on Saturday, have four games in hand on first-place LA. The 'Caps–RSL game was postponed because of a waterlogged field.
Backstop Brilliance
While the goalkeepers were overwhelmed in Seattle and left almost idle in Dallas (three shots on goal in that game—total), they were nothing short of sensational in three other cities.
Will Hesmer and Jon Busch played a little game of Can you top this? to keep the Columbus–San Jose game scoreless—a slightly ironic outcome considering the Crew were honoring Brian McBride, one of the top goal-scorers in franchise history, in a halftime ceremony that night.
In Los Angeles, Chivas USA's Dan Kennedy turned in another excellent performance, holding Thierry Henry and New York scoreless for his fifth shutout of the season. The Red Bulls started their new 'keeper, Frank Rost, signed this week as the team's third DP, and he also pitched a shutout.
Portland's Troy Perkins made seven saves—including three spectacular ones—and got a little help from his posts, to help deliver the first MLS road win in Timbers history, a 1-0 win over Chicago.
Seeing Red
The Portland win was not without controversy, first in a disputed 24th-minute penalty (that Jack Jewsbury buried for the Timbers) and then in a second yellow card shown to Fire defender Yamith Cuesta, reducing the home side to 10 men for the final 27 minutes.
As is often the case with cards, when it rains it pours: Houston saw not one but two reds in their 1-1 draw with Sporting Kansas City — and still nearly left with all three points.
Brad Davis opened the scoring with an eighth-minute free kick, but after Colin Clark and Brian Ching were red-carded in the 56th and 70th minutes, respectively, the Dynamo simply couldn't hang on, despite the heroics of 'keeper Tally Hall (eight saves).
Ching and Clark were both sent off for offenses against KC defender Aurélien Collin; when KC's equalizer finally arrived, in the 90th minute, it came off the foot of … Collin, of course.
It was the second week in a row in which SKC pulled even on a last-minute goal, and the result extended their unbeaten streak to 11 games. (Kansas City capped the day by signing 27-year-old Brazilian midfielder Jéferson as their second Designated Player after Omar Bravo.)
Sunday night's New England–Philadelphia game also featured plenty of chippiness. The normally mild-mannered Benny Feilhaber saw a second yellow in the 66th-minute for body-checking Philly striker Carlos Ruiz.
New England had come out flat and gone down 2-0 after just 24 minutes, setting Feilhaber's frustration to boil. He decked Gabriel Farfan early in the second half and seemed to be on a collision course with another booking.
The Revs surrendered a stoppage-time goal to Sheanon Williams to make it 3-0, a result that put Philadelphia back on top of the Eastern Conference standings, two points clear of New York. New England are in last place in the East.
Turnover in Toronto
Scuffling along just two points ahead of the Revs in the East are Toronto FC, a team that have never been to the playoffs and that brought in a whole new coaching staff and soccer brain trust before this season.
In the past few weeks, that staff has overhauled the TFC roster. They signed Designated Players Torsten Frings and Danny Koevermans on June 29, and this past week, the Reds shipped out striker Alan Gordon, midfielders Jacob Peterson and Tony Tchani, and defender Nana Attakora, in exchange for former San Jose attacker Ryan Johnson, former Vancouver midfielder Terry Dunfield, former Columbus defender Andy Iro and ex-Crew attacker Leandre Griffit.
The new Reds—including the big-name foreign acquisitions—could trot out together for the first time on Wednesday, when FC Dallas come calling at BMO Field.
Whether or not this group can jell in time save Toronto's season, it's going to be entertaining watching them try.

What is Suge Knight's end game? A mistrial by jury tampering? Threatening all witnesses and victims? Exhausting the court system as well as the plaintiffs? Going on more field trips by committing more crimes? Proving that the Los Angeles Court System is either corrupt and or incompetent or both?
For a man who has been playing the court system since the 1990s, as a gang member (allegedly) as well as the former CEO of Death Row Records, Marion Suge Knight has been flexing his authoritarian muscle for a very long time. He is a King Pin a Gangster a Racketeer. He flaunts that even now in court and behind bars.
Recently Knight has yet another indictment under the long list of other criminal acts added to his trophy belt. He has been accused of not only making criminal threats against "Straight Outta Compton" Director F. Gary Gray but he has been accused working with his attorney Matthew Fletcher of attempting to bribe witnesses to give false testimony.
Besides using his time behind bars to do mischief with one of his many attorneys, Knight has gotten his girlfriend Toilin Kelly and his business partner Mark Blakenship to do his dirty work on the outside. Kelly and Blakenship were indicted last week for selling sealed evidence by the court (the surveillance video of Terry Carter's death) to Harry Levin's TMZ for $55,000. Below is my take on the current news and below that video are 2015 videos of Matthew Fletcher talking outside the court and Mark Blakenship (Knight's business partner) speaking on Marion Suge Knight's behalf.

It was in the 50s and raining today in London, which sounds pretty typical, right? And also, really uncomfortable if A) you're a fan who has been staying overnight to catch the Hunger Games: Catching Fire premiere, or B) you're one of the movie's stars trying to be fashionable in a flimsy gown and not-so-sensible shoes. Both parties were still totally happy to see each other, though Donald Sutherland did cut his live streamed interview short, complaining that his feet were cold. Jennifer Lawrence, thankfully, put on her coat for her interview, happily discovering, as she told Yahoo!, that she found two Mentos in her pocket! We're happy that the stars are willing to suffer for their fans and fashion, but we couldn't help but caption the above photos with the thoughts we imagine were running through their heads. Not one of which, we assume, was, "Why London?"

Don't Miss Carol Wyer's Newest Fab. Crime-Thriller-The Chosen Ones–Out Now!
The Chosen Ones is a compelling, creepy and fast-paced police procedural crime-thriller.
Murders are beginning to pile up in Colton, England, and DI Robyn Carter and her team have been working overtime to link clues together. There's a serial killer on the loose, and Robyn's superior is threatening to pull her off the case. She's stepping on toes, irritating influential people, and they're breathing down her boss's neck. Why is her superior hampering her investigation? Could he be corrupt?
The murders were all different; each one was as brutal as the one prior: a man hanging like a scarecrow, a screwdriver through the head, and a woman run over several times. Unfortunately, these were not the only deaths; there were more. Robyn knew that she was staring at the work of a cold, methodical serial killer. And if her boss were in any way involved with these killings, then she'd have to bring him down as well.
If you enjoy police procedurals, check-out The Chosen Ones. It's a cleverly crafted thriller, with realistic characters, an intriguing plot, natural dialogue and lots of surprises. The only thing I didn't care for was the mild cliff-hanger at the end. It only involves a minor subplot, but still, I like my readings to end with every loose thread tied up.
Thank you, Bookouture and NetGalley, for my advanced review copy.
