Another full day of shredding that ended with some rain. Derek Elmendorf ended up qualifying first, and he had the first run of the first heat so a lot of people didn't see his run. Andrew Cannon put down a flawless run full of his big-man steeze that delighted the crowd. Andrew Langi was the crowd pleaser as always with stylish kickflips over the pyramid, a mind-boggling Smith stall to blunt to fakie on the wallride wall, and a back Smith across the quarter pipe over the buttcrack hip—he qualified second. Tom Remillard took a 50 spot off Shaefer for back tailing the quarter over the butt. And Lacey Baker makes history being the first girl to make it to Sunday at a Tampa Am. Full results are posted here.
It's a little wet in Ybor City, but we're off to see No Age and Les Savy Fav at the SPoT Anniversary party. Stay tuned tomorrow for coverage of the finals, the moat race, and the always popular party photos.

Hey all,
I am working on something here at home and I basically want to capture packets between my cable modem and wireless router. I have a dual nic'd pc running linux and I'd like to be able to bridge my interfaces and dump the traffic (preferably tcpdump) into a pcap file that I can view later.
I want the MITM (Machine in the Middle) to be as transparent as I can get it, so I thought iptables would come in to play.
Anyone have experience setting something like this up?

Long-Lasting Whipped Cream: Which Method Works Best?
When Megan wrote about stabilizing whipped cream with crème fraîche, many readers commented with their own tricks for making whipped cream that lasts using additions like melted butter or marshmallows. Curious, I decided to put a handful of these methods to the test, whipping up batches using the recommended additions and seeing how well they held up in the refrigerator over the course of an afternoon.
A couple hours and several pints of heavy cream later, I have great news: it turns out the most effective way to make long-lasting whipped cream is also the easiest.
In total, I made six different batches of whipped cream. I tested three additions recommended in reader comments: melted butter, melted marshmallows and dry instant vanilla pudding mix. I also tried the addition of crème fraîche. And I made two batches with no additions beyond powdered sugar and a little vanilla extract, one whipped using an immersion blender with the whisk attachment, the other using a mini chopper. (All the other batches were made with the immersion blender and I added a little powdered sugar and vanilla to all except the vanilla pudding mix batch.) I checked on each batch after one hour and then two hours. All of the above photos were taken after two hours in the refrigerator.
Let's talk about my ideal whipped cream, so you know what I was looking for. Fluffy, light and smooth, but firmly holding its shape when dolloped — that is the whipped cream I want on my pies and cakes.
Here are my observations from each method, from least to most successful.
Melted marshmallow: I have no results for this method, as I was never able to melt a marshmallow without it cooling and shriveling up into a desiccated husk that spun around whole in the bowl of heavy cream. It may be that the marshmallows I had on hand were too old and dried out for this method, or perhaps marshmallow fluff is the way to go. Feel free to leave any recommendations in the comments, if you have successfully made whipped cream with this addition.
Dry instant vanilla pudding: Instant vanilla pudding powder was not my friend in this test. I overwhipped the first batch in an attempt to incorporate all the flecks of powder and, after tossing out that round, ultimately gave up on fully incorporating all the powder in the next batch for fear of overwhipping again. The pudding powder-enhanced whipped cream came together much more quickly than any other type, and was mostly smooth, with a not-overpowering vanilla sweetness.
But one hour later, it was a different story. The cream had become unpleasantly firm after refrigeration, and had developed a strange, artificial taste and noticeably yellow color. Although it was soft just after whipping, it now looked overwhipped and chunky. It was indeed long-lasting, staying just as firmly whipped for 24 hours or more, but I was reminded of artificial whipped topping rather than real whipped cream. Perhaps using a smaller amount of powder would produce better results, but the artificial ingredients and coloring of the instant pudding keep me from wanting to explore this option further.
Melted butter: If increasing the fat content of whipped cream is supposed to make it better able to hold its shape over time, adding a little butter seems like a natural solution. Unfortunately, I was unable to find a way to add cooled, melted butter to cold heavy cream that didn't cause the butter to seize up into tiny, solidified chunks. I initially poured all the butter in at once before whipping, which resulted in an overwhipped mess that had to be tossed. For the second batch, I poured in a thin stream of butter as I was whipping, but there were still noticeable flecks of butter throughout.
This whipped cream held its shape well after two hours in the fridge, but the not-quite-smooth texture did not improve.
Crème fraîche: This whipped cream was soft and billowy, with a definite crème fraîche tang. I tasted it before adding the powdered sugar and vanilla and found it a little too sharp, but once it was sweetened, the tanginess was rounded out pleasantly. Because of the pronounced flavor, this would not be an all-purpose whipped cream for me, but I can see using it on rich chocolate cakes or other heavy desserts that pair well with the refreshing zip of crème fraîche.
After an hour, this batch had softened slightly, but still held its peaks. After two hours, it was the softest of all the batches I tested, but not to the point of appearing wet or leaky. Although not as firm as the butter batch, I preferred the smoothness of this whipped cream.
Mini chopper & immersion blender: Since writing about using a food processor or mini chopper to whip cream, it has become my go-to technique for quick, long-lasting whipped cream. But I think the immersion blender may be my new favorite tool, as it seems to whip the cream more uniformly than the mini chopper, without the occasional wet spots where the chopper's blades didn't reach. Both tools produced whipped cream that was soft, smooth and fluffy, with firm peaks.
After an hour and even two hours, the whipped cream batches made with the mini chopper and the immersion blender maintained their shape and texture, looking as good as when they were freshly whipped.
The winner! Making whipped cream with an immersion blender is the most effective way I found to make long-lasting, perfectly textured whipped cream. It's also the most straightforward, with no special ingredients needed, aside from optional sugar or flavorings. I like to add about 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract per half cup of heavy whipping cream for a little extra sweetness and flavor.
Are there any other methods you recommend for long-lasting whipped cream?

Based on the record of La Plata Electric Association, the environmental community is disappointed in the appointment of LPEA Trustee Pam Patton to the Pubic Utilities Commission by Gov. John Hickenlooper.
If the governors reason for appointing Pam Patton to the PUC was to gain a progressive voice for rural electric associations on the Public Utilities Commission, he has come up short, said Harry Riegle of Sustainability Alliance of Southwest Colorado. Ms. Patton has not supported renewable-energy proposals during her tenure on the board of the La Plata Electric Association, nor has she been an advocate for progressive policies. In fact, Pam was part of the LPEA board which opposed Amendment 37, which was overwhelmingly approved by Colorado voters in 2004.
Amendment 37, approved by the voters in 2004, set renewable-energy standards for utilities.
Pattons appointment to PUC also was criticized by Elise Jones, executive director of the Colorado Environmental Coalition. Jones said she now has doubts on whether (Hickenlooper) will continue to drive Colorado toward a clean-energy future.
Eric Brown, a spokesman for the governor, believes attitudes toward Patton will change.
We are confident the conservation community will be as impressed with Pam as we are when they meet and talk to her, Brown said.
Patton, a resident of Bayfield, has served on the LPEA board since 2000 and is a past president and current secretary.
LPEA distributes electrical power in La Plata and Archuleta counties.
Patton criticized Riegle at a regular LPEA board meeting in May, accusing him of deliberately trying to make LPEA look like it was unwilling to release documents during a board election campaign in which two incumbents lost to green candidates.
Patton officially will begin her four-year term on the PUC on Thursday.
She will be sworn in June 25.

However, despite the lofty comparisons Neha Ramu of England has said that she does not think the comparisons are fair.
Ramu said: "When I found out I got such a high score it was so amazing and unexpected. Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein, they've achieved so much. It's not right to compare me to them just because of my IQ. If I don't put in my effort and make use of my IQ then there's no point in having it."
The score of 162 is the highest possible score that the IQ test allows a person under the age of 18 to achieve.
The amazing score has led many to compare Ramu to other historical geniuses, but she has kept her feet firmly on the ground and has taken her score with a grain of salt.
The young teenager has said that her hobbies include playing chess and reading. She also enjoys swimming and watching television just like more of her peers.
Ramu will now join Mensa, which is quite an achievement at such a young age. However, she is not the youngest person to join the IQ elite – according to reports one girl, Alice Amos, scored 162 on an IQ test when she was just 2 years and 11 months old. She entered Mensa just after she turned three.
The IQ test given by Mensa allows membership into an elite club that provides mental stimulation and the "exchange of ideas through lectures, discussions, journals, special-interest groups… and gatherings," according to the organization's website.
In order to join, those taking the test must attain "a score within the upper two percent of the general population."

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a X-linked genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and weakness. It is one of nine types of muscular dystrophy.
DMD is caused by an absence of dystrophin, a protein that helps keep muscle cells intact. Symptom onset is in early childhood, usually between ages 3 and 5. The disease primarily affects boys, but in rare cases it can affect girls.
Muscle weakness can begin as early as age 3, first affecting the muscles of the hips, pelvic area, thighs and shoulders, and later the skeletal (voluntary) muscles in the arms, legs and trunk. The calves often are enlarged. By the early teens, the heart and respiratory muscles also are affected. For more about DMD symptoms, see Signs and Symptoms.
Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is a milder version of DMD. Its onset is usually in the teens or early adulthood, and the course is slower and less predictable than that of DMD.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy was first described by the French neurologist Guillaume Benjamin Amand Duchenne in the 1860s, but until the 1980s, little was known about the cause of any kind of muscular dystrophy. In 1986, MDA-supported researchers identified a particular gene on the X chromosome that, when flawed (mutated), leads to DMD. In 1987, the protein associated with this gene was identified and named dystrophin. Lack of the dystrophin protein in muscle cells causes them to be fragile and easily damaged.
DMD has an X-linked recessive inheritance pattern and is passed on by the mother, who is referred to as a carrier. For more about the way gene mutations cause Duchenne dystrophy, see Causes/Inheritance.
DMD carriers are females who have a normal dystrophin gene on one X chromosome and an abnormal dystrophin gene on the other X chromosome. Most carriers of DMD do not themselves have signs and symptoms of the disease, but a minority do. Symptoms can range from mild skeletal muscle weakness or cardiac involvement to severe weakness or cardiac effects and can begin in childhood or adulthood. For more, read Females and DMD in Causes/Inheritance.
Until relatively recently, boys with DMD usually did not survive much beyond their teen years. Thanks to advances in cardiac and respiratory care, life expectancy is increasing and many young adults with DMD attend college, have careers, get married and have children. Survival into the early 30s is becoming more common, and there are cases of men living into their 40s and 50s. For more about living with DMD, see Medical Management.

People with disabilities – fighting poverty and social isolation
People with disabilities are more likely to be out of work and living on low incomes than their non-disabled counterparts
People with disabilities are more likely to be out of work and living on low incomes than their non-disabled counterparts. They also find it more difficult to access the goods and services that most people take for granted. All this means that disabled people are at significant risk of poverty and social isolation.
One of the most effective ways of escaping poverty is through finding and retaining work. Unfortunately, participation in the labour market represents a challenge for many disabled people.
One-sixth of the European Union's working age population is classed as disabled, but they struggle to find jobs. The employment rate for disabled people in the EU is about 50% compared to 68% for the rest of the population. And only around 20% of people with severe disabilities participate in the labour market.
Missing out
Education is also seen as a key route out of poverty. But here too people with disabilities find the odds stacked against them. They are half as likely to reach tertiary education as non-disabled EU citizens.
Even disabled people with a higher education are much less likely to be employed in high-level jobs than their non-disabled counterparts.
Unfortunately, social isolation is as much of a danger as economic marginalisation for people with disabilities. For example, one in two disabled people has never participated in leisure or sporting activities.
One-third of Europe's disabled population has never travelled abroad or even taken a daytrip because of problems caused by inaccessible premises and services.
Even socialising is a challenge as disabled people are less likely to see their friends and family on a regular basis compared to the non-disabled.
Taking action
There are estimated to be about 65 million disabled people in the EU. So what is being done to help them fight back against the twin spectres of poverty and social exclusion?
The EU has been helping disabled people achieve equality and inclusion through the Disability Action Plan (DAP) 2004-2010.
The goal has been to ensure that disabled people can play a full part in society on the same terms as others, and make their own choices. The DAP has therefore been used to improve disabled people's employment and education prospects and boost their access to goods and services.
The plan has helped to ensure that disability issues are integrated – or mainstreamed – within key relevant EU policies. The European Commission is currently consulting on the preparation of a new EU Disability Strategy for 2010-2020.
The EU has also signed and is in the process of concluding the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. This is the first Human Rights Convention signed by the EU. The aim of the Convention is to promote, protect and ensure the full and equal enjoyment of all human rights and fundamental freedoms by all people with disabilities, and to promote respect for their inherent dignity.
Moreover, the Community's European Employment Strategy encourages Member States to develop initiatives that will help disabled people thrive in the jobs market and workplace.
EU legislation is also playing its part in improving the lives of disabled people.
The Employment Equality Directive obliges employers provide reasonable accommodation to help disabled people in the workplace. This could include adapting buildings to provide wheelchair ramps or providing assistive technology for blind people. There is also scope to change working arrangements to suit a person with disabilities.
Thanks to new EU rules, disabled people now have certain rights when they travel by air. They must be provided with compulsory, free-of-charge assistance and information at airports and by their carrier. And reservations cannot be refused solely on the grounds of disability.
Passengers with reduced mobility and disabilities are also guaranteed to receive assistance when they travel by rail. Moves are now afoot to develop similar legislation for maritime and coach travel.
More broadly, anti-discrimination legislation has been issued by the Commission which will ensure equal treatment outside the world of work. If adopted by Member States, the new rules will do much to improve access to goods and services such as banking, education, transport and health.
EY2010 will continue to draw attention to the difficulties faced by people with disabilities, as well as the actions that are being taken to help them play a full part in society.

Yuina needs more screen time, she's just too good.
Just when i think we were going to get some Grandma and Ohana bonding she stays herself and orders Ohana back to the Inn. Ohana did show some concern, but she can't go against her wishes.
So Ko is going to visit Ohana. Sounds good, but why do i have a bad feeling because Ohana didn't get the message.
Lol at Ren folding under pressure, never would have thought that.
Wow, Takako really got on my nerves this ep. Beanman is just awesome. Have to give Ohana props for putting a plan like this together, hope she can pull through.

Decent episode, probably the best episode since episode 2. I wonder why Yuina gets close to no screentime at all...she's my favorite among the four girls together with Nakochi.
The only thing that bothered me was that they just HAD to make Ohana go and get Tooru again, it's so obvious the writers want to develop this love polygon with all their might. I find it very suspicious that they turned the serious Ren-san into a nervous wreck; you'd think someone with that much experience would be used to it, it's not like Kissuiso has always been this empty that pressure is a completely new thing for him.
But of course, by twisting things like that, Ohana gets to demonstrate her impulsiveness (lack of consideration) and Tooru once again becomes the center of everyone's attention. If we're "lucky", Ko will join the cast soon and we're gonna drown in shoujo-esque drama full with misunderstandings and confusion.

Finally Kou-chan came!
The episode itself was pure boredom though, except the very end, which ended in a nice way... as in, an interesting way. It isn't very nice imagining that stupid girl barging in on something important again though.
The person that speaks English occasionally is incredibly annoying.

I guess the idea that they can wring through it without having their least experianced waitress around for awhile, but they definitely can't afford to not have a non BSODing Chef.
Though in terms of plotting, it's fairly obvious they're setting up a potential point of plot conflict with Ohana/Tohru. Since this is the SECOND time she's come dashing to him unannounced declaring that the inn vitally needs him. I continue to grow amused at people asserting that this was all going to be some easily resolved misunderstanding.

I'm pretty sure she´s aware that Ohana is setting herself up some flags with Tooru. She did look a bit upset/bothered when Ohana yet again left to go for Tooru.
Oh Minko...Please, don´t just talk the talk while Ohana walks the walk. If you really want to get him to notice you, then you gotta do something.

Yes! Finally some good drama is making it's way into the show. The last few episodes kinda seemed to lack that vibe. idk. But still this is awesome and I HATE that I have to wait a whole week to see what happens! AAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I really wanted ko-chan and ohana's relationship to progress and well this is going to be interesting. I thought the ending was great too how Ohana just cracks the door open and the light shines on her eyes. I'm a sucker for those kinda scenes. >~< I like it when they end the episode with the ending song, it's great for cliffhanger kinda endings to an episode like this.

And to those who expect an OhanaxTooru ending: not going to happen, mark my words. Misunderstandings and Minchi blowups, perhaps, but nothing more. Ohana may (it's barely possible) end up with no-one, but if anyone ends up with Tooru, it's going to be Minchi. I'll take it back if things work out differently, but they won't.
As for OhanaxKou, Ohana melted a bit when she talked to Kou, but she did not get that he was really coming right then, and with an emergency at work, the writers want us to believe that she has no time to call him back.
I wonder if Kou-chan is the mystery guest, at the other inn at least. Not sure how that could be, but in this show perfect rationality is not part of the deal.
Yes, the "management consultant" is deeply annoying. Silly situation-comedy at its worst. But at least she has been thrown into the ditch by Ohana.
I'm with those who think this was a very good episode -- at least after we got the consultant off the screen.

- it may turn out to be a wild goose chase, since they don't know precisely where he is, or which wedding he's attending.
- there's the backup plan of trying his phone again and again. Maybe he'll turn it on at some point.

LOL. If Ko is the mystery guest, that really calls impartiality into question (if he's actually a guest at Kissuiso).
Edit: I'm curious to see what larger role (if any) Yuina will play in this series, besides providing some friendly support to Ohana (and being adorable).

What a weird episode. "Ugh" at Ren turning into a nervous wreck like that. Way to ruin what could of potentially been a great character. I honestly can never look at him the same again.
Kou coming to visit Ohana without telling her, what a surprise. This can only end badly and/or awkwardly. I guess it would be nice to have some more character development of Kou, not much is really known about him, I guess he deserves some more screen time.
Ohana running off to get Tooru makes me want to vomit, not because I hate Tooru's guts but because it's just such an insane thing to do, it doesn't make sense. I mean, guess it makes sense based on Ohana's character, but something seems off about the whole thing. The only reason I can see this happening is if this is a set up for some scene of Tooru hooking up with a chick at the wedding, and Ohana sees it, can't tell Minko, blah blah blah.
Even though a lot went on, I still felt it was a pretty boring episode, a lot of annoying things happened. Also, am I the only one who wants a OhanaXNobody ending? Actually, I guess it'll depend on what kind of guy Kou is, but I'd like it if they just stayed friends. ~_~

I really liked the two women where the epic fail writer barged in to check. lol
Ohana, we already know you can think straight. I suggest you add some more thought lines though... because (the guys who did the script) you will definitely trigger drama in at least two or three ways.

You know, I enjoyed this episode but am a little disappointed with Ko going to visit Ohana out of no where. When did he and how did he find out where she went? I don't remember there being any mention of that, which led my prediction and hope that he goes to Ohana's inn and meets her by chance. Plus he's putting the ball in her court yet again by going to visit her.

This episode wasn't as stellar as episodes 1 and 2, but gosh, they finally took a step in the right direction. 8.5/10, rounded up to 9/10 for the poll.
Like episodes 1 and 2, episode 8 managed to blend the more comedic aspects of it into the plot, and use it to elevate the dramatic tension, which is not overly serious, but lets you sympathize for Ohana and her situation. This episode actually manages to pull the viewer into the episode and hope the best for Ohana to resolve her situation.
Because after all, if you don't care about the troubles of the characters, then why even watch anything that even tries to be dramatic at all? I especially liked the ending parts of the episode where Ohana fulfilled the expectations of her grandmother, perhaps exceeding them, and brought back the spirit of the customer service she has preached about since the beginning.
She put everyone back in line, and is taking authority in a situation where really, almost everybody is being pretty hopeless.
There's a bunch of dramatic elements ready to just explode in this anime, but that's not even why I thought this episode was good.
I'm looking forward to more of the same, and hope I don't have to endure yet another episode 3 or 7 anytime soon.

When the Jasper County Board of Supervisors meets Tuesday for its weekly meeting, the first thing on its agenda will be the public hearing and second reading of ordinance 61 which focuses on on-site wastewater treatment and disposal.
Ordinance #61 would repeal ordinances 52, 53, 54, 55, 55a and 56. By repealing the previous ordinances, 61 would give comprehensive regulations for the use, design, installation, maintenance and replacement of all on-site wastewater treatment and disposal systems in all incorporated and unincorporated areas of Jasper County. It would also provide the administration and enforcement of the new regulations.
Jasper County Sanitation Director Kevin Luetters will be available at the public hearing to answer questions the public may have. The board will also hold a public hearing to set a date for construction permit applications for a confinement feeding operation. The tentative date is April 4.
The board also will receive an update from Jasper County Treasurer Doug Bishop on Jasper County's depositories. There are currently 11 financial institutions that currently hold deposits and Hedrick Bank of Kellogg has requested to be the 12th. In a letter to the board, Bishop said:
"Hedrick Bank in Kellogg has asked to be named a depository," Bishop wrote. "I would ask that this be considered and approved at your next meeting."
The supervisors also will set up a public hearing for the fiscal year 2012-2013 budget amendment. The recommended date is April 4.
The board will also vote to approve the new three-year agreement Sheriff John Halferty struck with Keefe Commissary Network. Under the agreement, Keefe would provide computer equipment to the correctional facility and provide a variety of services that inmates can purchase. Items include pre-stamped envelopes, stamps, phone cards and various other items. Prices will be determined by both parties and the deal will automatically renew each of the three years, unless one side or the other gives a 90-day notice to terminate.
Rita Reinheimer of the Jasper County Genealogical Society will discuss her group's plans for its library, located at 113 W. Second St. S. in Newton. According to the genealogical society's site:
"The objectives of the society are to:
1. Create and foster an interest in genealogy.
2. Preserve genealogical and historical data, particularly of our ancestors and the early settlers of Jasper County.
3. Aid individuals in compiling family genealogies.
4. Establish and maintain, through contributions of members, interested individuals, and the Society, a genealogical reference section, consisting of county histories, periodicals, surname file and family genealogies."

A Canadian independent wrestling organization will be showcasing itself to the nation tonight, as Action Wrestling Entertainment heads to pay-per-view.
AWE presents its first volume of Larger than Life, a two-part airing of an event taped earlier this year at the University of Manitoba's Inverstor's Group Athletic Centre. The tapig drew 1,300, who came to see local favourites such as Chi Chi Cruz, Shane Madison and Wavell Starr, as well as top American talent such as Fatu (aka. Rikishi), The G-Man (TNA's Kip James) and James Gibson (better known as Jamie Noble).
The event is the culmination of hours upon hours of work by the AWE crew. Mike Davidson, director of wrestling operations for AWE, has been looking forward to this day for a long time. "There has been a lot of legwork involved in getting to this point, so it feels amazing to be able to say that this is a done deal," Davidson said in a release. "So much work has been put into this project that it�s hard to believe we�re actually here. I've always said that I wanted to become the CFL of Sports Entertainment, and this is the first step towards that goal."
The PPV broadcast, which is available on providers such as Shaw, Vu!, Viewer's Choice and Star Choice, will be important for AWE on many levels, as Davidson notes that the group will be making a major statement as part of the show. "During the event we will be announcing more details on the status of our national television deal," he said in an august release.
To help celebrate the event, local fans are invited to watch Larger than Life with the AWE's stars at Boogie's Diner, located at 1155 Main St.

Fairfield Prep's Crowle a leader by example
FAIRFIELD -- For a two-sport athlete who's built a reputation for overwhelming opponents with brute strength and speed, being characterized as a "gentle giant" could seem like a contradiction.
But that's not the case for Nick Crowle.
A hulking presence on the football field and the wrestling mat, the Fairfield Prep senior and Milford resident is described as the consummate quiet leader. Regardless of the tone or volume of Crowle's words, others listen.
"I've never heard him try to encourage somebody by yelling," says Corey Dennis, Prep's wrestling coach. "It's always been leading by example, words of encouragement, positive encouragement. ... He's not vocal in the sense that he has to ever raise his voice or beat his chest or punch lockers."
Instead, a simple glare often does the trick.
"He just has to pass a disapproving look your way and people fall in line," says Tom Shea, Prep's football coach.
Crowle's athletic abilities are known to grab others' attention, as well. Punishing opponents with his 6-foot-3, 246-pound frame, Crowle helped power the Jesuits to their first state football final in 25 years last month. A starter at both fullback and linebacker, he later took home all-state honors after scoring 18 total touchdowns.
"To be honest, I'm kind of shy in a lot of social situations," Crowle says, chuckling. "You can kind of tell that around me. But I always put my best effort out there.
"Whether it's success or defeat, the effort that I put out there, the guys can rally around."
He provided perhaps his most courageous effort in a 52-34 loss to Southington in the LL championship -- a game that became an emotional trip, Crowle says, for more reasons than its wild back-and-forth nature.
Because of a weekend snowstorm, the final was postponed three times before finally kicking off five days later on Dec. 19. It was the latest a CIAC football game had ever been played.
Crowle rushed 26 times for 178 yards and two touchdowns. He also recorded seven tackles.
"You're thinking the game is this day, this next day, so you're not in the weight room because you don't want to be sore," says Crowle, a captain for both the football and wrestling teams. "You're not conditioning because you don't want to be tired. By the time it's Thursday, we've got a week and a half of no lifting and almost a week of no conditioning."
Both physically and mentally spent, Crowle didn't get much time to rest. Less than 48 hours later he wrestled for Prep in the Fairfield Ludlowe Invitational, where he won the 285-pound division.
"Friday he was pretty bummed, but he also knew Friday that he was wrestling on Saturday," says Crowle's father, David. "It was going to be a long tournament in terms of getting there at 7:45 (a.m.) and based off last year's tournament, not leaving until 8:30 or 9 (p.m.). He knew what was ahead of him.
"With no wrestling practice, he went on the mat about 10:30 Saturday morning, hoping that his body would remember what he learned in wrestling."
Crowle won two matches after a first-round bye, pinning New Britain's Patrick Malchar in one minute in the final. He's extended his record to 7-0 this season despite taking only a breather since football.
"I'm sore, yeah. Absolutely," he says.
He doesn't intend to stop anytime soon, either. As his wrestling coach says, there's "no off-switch" for Crowle. He's undersized for his weight class, but his superior speed and athleticism have made him a top contender in the 285-pound division.
Last year, he took third place in the 285-pound bracket at the LL championships and was the fastest fall winner. He reached the third round at the State Open, but was bothered by a shoulder injury.
"When he's focused on a goal, he doesn't go 99 percent," Dennis says. "It's 100 percent all the way. Overall, it's a credit to the type of person he is. ... Everything's 100 percent."
Crowle admits that his game's still raw, but hopes to have his conditioning at an optimal level after 20 matches. Following a routine that includes meetings with a trainer three days a week and a nutritionist-recommended diet, he's adjusted to the hectic schedule.
But there have been times this year, such as in a second-period pin against Foran on Dec. 23, when his body reminded him of the physical toll it's taken.
"He (Foran wrestler) actually pushed me into the second period. I was just gassed out," he says. "That's when it really hit me. There's such a difference between being in shape for football and wrestling conditioning. Since then, I've been working much harder."
The tireless commitment has been rewarding for Crowle. This fall he'll attend Yale, where he'll play football, likely as a stand-up defensive end. And again, most won't be surprised to see Crowle leading by example.
"Nick likes to set the mood by example," says Matt Freed, a junior captain on the wrestling team. "He doesn't scream, he doesn't shout at anybody. He doesn't really command anybody. ... People like to follow him."

SACRAMENTO -- California's lowest-paid workers are in store for a 25 percent raise after lawmakers late Thursday boosted the Golden State's minimum wage to the highest of any state in the country.
In the final hours of its 2013 regular session, the Legislature voted to hike the minimum wage from $8 an hour to $9 next July and $10 by January 2016 -- a move Democrats praised as a boon to struggling workers and Republicans lambasted as a "job killer."
Gov. Jerry Brown has already promised to sign the bill, making California a leader in a growing movement to increase wages for the working poor spurred by protesting fast-food workers across the country.
"The minimum wage has not kept pace with rising costs,"
Brown said Wednesday. "This legislation is overdue and will help families that are struggling in this harsh economy."
The state Senate voted 26-11 on Thursday to pass Assembly Bill 10 by Assemblyman Luis Alejo, D-Salinas, and the Assembly followed suit by agreeing 51-25 to Senate amendments, sending the bill to Brown. The Assembly had passed an earlier version of the bill in May.
But Republican lawmakers and business groups excoriated the Democrats, saying they were placing California's slow economic recovery at risk.
Noting that the bill would catapult California past Washington state, which now leads all states with a $9.19-per-hour minimum wage, Sen. Steve Knight, R-Antelope Valley, argued that if wages go too high, businesses will only automate more and industries will hirer fewer people who need work.
"Obviously there's a tipping point," he said. "We are still in a recession. ... It's tough to get a job out there."
Minimum wages have been an incendiary topic near and far lately. San Jose voters last November approved raising the city's minimum wage to $10, joining San Francisco as one of only a handful of cities nationwide with their own wage floors. And fast-food workers from coast-to-coast staged a one-day walkout in August to demand $15 an hour. And the mayor of Washington, D.C., on Thursday vetoed an increase to $12.50 that had been staunchly opposed by Walmart and other major retailers.
California lawmakers aimed to finish a full day early -- the session technically ends at midnight Friday -- so some members could get home for the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, which starts at sundown Friday.
The wage bill was one of several hotly contested bills that passed in the session's final days. A "Domestic Worker Bill of Rights," which would require that in-home workers be paid overtime rates, was also sent to the governor on Thursday.
Also sent to Brown's desk this week were bills to regulate oil and gas fracking; to partially withdraw California from a federal immigration and deportation dragnet; and to enact a wide range of strict new gun controls. Among those that didn't make the cut -- but might come back next year -- were bills to revoke tax-exempt status from groups such as the Boy Scouts that have anti-gay policies; to require background checks for ammunition purchases; and to require Californians to give up all high-capacity ammunition magazines no matter when they were bought.
State Sen. Bill Monning, D-Monterey, shepherded the minimum-wage bill on the Senate floor, saying it's "fair and reasonable" and "brings our struggling workforce some much-needed relief."
Economists are divided on the impact of minimum wage increases.
Earlier this year, a panel of about three-dozen experts from leading universities around the country was split when asked by the Initiative on Global Markets whether raising the federal minimum wage to $9 from its current $7.25 would reduce the number of low-wage jobs available.
In December 2010, a study by UC Berkeley economists concluded that raising the minimum wage does not cut the number of low-paying jobs. But not everyone agrees.
"I think the evidence is overwhelming that there is a job loss from these things," said David Neumark, director of the UC Irvine Center for Economics and Public Policy, who's studied minimum wage proposals. "It's a badly targeted policy."
Neumark said raising the minimum wage does not usually help poor families because so many low-wage workers are "secondary earners" -- such as high-school students -- and usually not the breadwinners.
David Hewitt, assistant professor of economics at Whittier College, agreed that while there may be fewer jobs available, putting extra cash in the hands of low-wage workers stimulates the economy.
"When they get extra money, they spend it," Hewitt said. "They're not likely to take this raise and put it in the bank or in an IRA. They're going to buy their kids a toy or a schoolbook or buy some extra clothes."
The California Restaurant Association, however, said the increase would be a "back-breaker."
"Given the economics in our industry, where restaurants operate at very thin profit margins, a 25 percent increase in labor costs will result in fewer job opportunities for Californians looking to get back on their feet," CEO Jot Condie said.
Jack Temple, a policy analyst with the National Employment Law Project, countered that when fast-food companies, retailers and others pay workers more, they should reduce staff turnover, which saves costly time and money training and hiring new staff.
"Despite what they say about what they will do," he said, "historically employers have not reduced employment afterward."

Cadillac is a luxury vehicle marque owned by General Motors. Cadillac vehicles are sold in over 50 countries and territories, but mainly in North America. Cadillac is currently the second oldest American automobile manufacturer behind Buick and among the oldest automobile brands in the world.
Cadillac was born in 1902. Its founder, Henry Leland, a master mechanic and entrepreneur, named the company after his ancestor, Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, the founder of Detroit. It was purchased in 1909 by General Motors and within six years, Cadillac laid the foundation for the modern mass production of automobiles by demonstrating the complete interchangeability of its precision parts, also establishing itself as America's premier luxury car.
Cadillac pioneered many accessories in automobiles, including full electrical systems, the clashless manual transmission and the steel roof. The brand developed three engines, one of which (the V8 engine) set the standard for the American automotive industry. As a result, Cadillac is the first American car to win the prestigious Dewar Trophy from the Royal Automobile Club of England and adopt the slogan "Standard of the World".Less...

The station should not be confused with the current Battersea Park station, opened as "York Road" in 1867, or with another station named "Battersea" on the West London Extension Railway that was opened in 1863 and closed in 1940. We ate and sat in the sun to warm up. After eating, we spent some time looking at the map to determine our location and path, figuring that we were about 8 miles from the car. Description: A Clapham upholstery courses South Kensington cleaning company SW4 provides qualified cleaners who can easily take care of your rug washing SW11, upholstery cleaning, end of tenancy cleaning in Clapham, Stockwell, Battersea, Clapham Junction, etc. Fire department records from the 1920s and 1930s list a variety of fire alarms at Radio, Virginia – a neighborhood named for the old U.S. Navy Wireless Station in the vicinity of Columbia Pike and Courthouse Road.
Once clear of these monstrosities, my eyes feel upon the first signs of human life in the form of houses, and road signs. At one of the information centers in downtown Fort McMurray a brisk flow of returning residents picking up bottled water, toiletries and cleaning kits. The best reason for using the hot water extraction cleaning method upholstery in South Kensington is that its so effective at cleaning using just hot water, or hot water with diluted detergent solutions. If you are considering upgrading a packraft, or even a first-time buyer who wants to camp and paddle moving water that's just Class II or more, then be sure to get a Cargo Zipper and a Whitewater Deck (I like the removable kind best).
Upholsterers Cleaning South Kensington
Suitable for use on brickwork, block work and most masonry, the HSS range of diamond drillers offers power and precision for a wide array of applications. I went for a quick recce of the town to see how long it'd take to get to the bus station (I was booked on the Orkney day trip , setting loose covers in South Kensington off at 7.30 the next day) and thence to the Castle Tavern (also found on the internet) for a pint of Three Sisters and a plate of Finnan haddie rarebit. The typical Belgium design features oversized furniture, oversized accessories, and antiques used sparingly but effectively.
We will reupholster your old furniture to look like new with either a choice of your own fabric or we will supply quality fabrics for you to choose from. Diamond managing director, Elwyn Gedrych, said: "We spend so much of our time driving, perhaps many of us have started to see our cars as an extension of our social lives. Cleaning as minor as it seems and sounds often takes a lot of time and even though the people put a lot of effort in sustaining their homes in excellent conditions it is hard to maintain this status for long especially on months in which your daily job is more demanding.
The Showroom has a wide and varied selection of re-upholstered furniture available for sale however if you have an existing suite or arm chair etc that requires restoration or re-upholstery etc this can be done to suit your individual taste. On Friday we dodged buses to wheel bespoke upholsterers in battersea park road a red sofa across the busy Upper Tooting Road, borrowed plants from Share Community Gardens and put calls out for more lampstands. The policy should be to design for clear pedestrian and cyclist priority over turning traffic at minor side roads and building entrances.

A leafleting session at Battersea Power Station ended in disarray this evening after the notoriously publicity shy Victor Hwang attempted to prevent a BPSCG member taking his photograph. To help keep the country's chin above the water, road tolls and vehicle taxes, which remained the most expensive among any of the developed countries, the government continued to drain exorbitant amounts of money from the average taxpayer. We Guarantee the best results with our upholstery cleaning London service. One driver makes an exception for "asking politely," but generally speaking, it's best not to. It's easy to make a mess, and no one wants to have to clean up a stranger's spilt kebab on their upholstery.

When Ken Hackett graduated from Boston College with a business degree in 1968, he expected to work in the corporate world, handling big money accounts, maybe at the phone company that employed his dad. But a spontaneous decision to instead join the Peace Corps led Hackett to the career from which he's retiring in January, running Catholic Relief Services, an institution with a nearly billion-dollar-a-year budget and 5,000 employees worldwide. On paper that might look like he wound up where his education pointed him, but the reality is far more interesting. "This is much more complicated" than working in a U.S.-based business would have been, Hackett told Catholic News Service during an early December interview in his Baltimore office. "There are many more stakeholders, the stakes are much higher. And getting it right -- doing it right -- is much more important." Hackett will overlap a short time with his successor, Carolyn Woo, 57, dean of the Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame and a CRS board member. Hackett, who will turn 65 Jan. 12, got to the top of CRS in 1993 by a route that started with trying to grow new strains of cocoa and corn in rural Ghana with the Peace Corps and brought him to CRS four years later. His first years with CRS involved helping run a program to promote breast-feeding and some nutrition and agriculture projects in Sierra Leone. His career track took him throughout Africa for the better part of two decades and to the Philippines in the late 1980s. His assignments included running CRS's relief program during Ethiopia's devastating famine of 1984-85 and heading CRS operations in East Africa during Somalia's civil war in the early 1990s before he moved back to CRS headquarters in the U.S. As he prepared to retire, Hackett looked back at an adrenaline-filled career of trying to help the victims of catastrophic events: hurricanes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, famine, floods, war and genocide. Despite the enormity of those relief efforts, what Hackett singles out as probably the most significant accomplishment of his tenure has been the change he made to more intentionally base everything CRS does in the principles of Catholic social teaching. The ah-ha moment that led to the shift was the Rwandan civil war of 1994 and the genocide that left an estimated 800,000 people dead in 10 days of tribal-based violence. "We'd been working there for years," Hackett said. "We knew about the tensions between the Hutus and the Tutsis, but we weren't doing anything about it. We were building schools and doing micro-development loans," without paying attention to the simmering race-based hatred around them.

Cora Bailey
Cora is the founder of Community Led Animal Welfare (CLAW), an IFAW project which provides basic veterinary healthcare and humane education to indigent communities in more than 30 townships and informal settlements in South Africa, many of which receive no other support services from government or charitable sources.
Cora's team provides cats and dogs with free vaccinations, spay/neuter operations, and operate a permanent vet clinic/animal hospital. Mobile clinics bring veterinary care to pet owners who have no access to health care for their dogs and cats, in areas where no other organisations will venture.
IFAW's animal clinic also serves as a platform for educational outreach and activities, teaching thousands of South African children the importance of treating animals with kindness. The project assists in poverty alleviation by training members of the community to grow organic vegetable gardens.
Cora and her team network with social support organizations which provide assistance for people living with HIV/AIDS, food aid for the destitute, support for child-headed households, and we help these organisations access clients in the areas in which we work.
Within IFAW, Cora has helped to develop and champion the community-led approach to animal welfare issues surrounding dogs, cats and other companion animals in underprivileged communities.

Peptic ulcer
A peptic ulcer is an open sore or raw area in the lining of the stomach or intestine.
- A gastric ulcer occurs in the stomach.
- A duodenal ulcer occurs in the first part of the small intestine.
Causes of Peptic ulcer
Normally, the lining of the stomach and small intestines can protect itself against strong stomach acids. But if the lining breaks down, the result may be:
- Swollen and inflamed tissue, called (gastritis)
- An ulcer
Most ulcers occur in the first layer of the inner lining. A hole that goes all the way through the stomach or duodenum is called a perforation. A perforation is a medical emergency.
The most common cause of ulcers is infection of the stomach by bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori). Most people with peptic ulcers have these bacteria living in their digestive tract. Yet, many people who have these bacteria in their stomach do not develop an ulcer.
The following factors raise your risk for peptic ulcers:
- Drinking too much alcohol
- Regular use of aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Taking aspirin or NSAIDs once in a while is safe for most people.
- Smoking cigarettes or chewing tobacco
- Being very ill, such as being on a breathing machine
- Having radiation treatments
A rare condition called Zollinger-Ellison syndrome causes stomach and duodenal ulcers.
Many people believe that stress causes ulcers. It is not clear if this is true for normal stress.
Peptic ulcer Symptoms
Small ulcers may not cause any symptoms. Some ulcers can cause serious bleeding.
Abdominal pain is a common symptom. The pain can differ from person to person, and some people have no pain.
Other symptoms include:
- Feeling of fullness and problems drinking as much fluid as usual
- Hunger and an empty feeling in the stomach, often 1 - 3 hours after a meal
- Mild nausea that may go away with vomiting
- Pain or discomfort in the upper abdomen
- Pain in the upper abdomen that wakes you up at night
Other possible symptoms include:
- Bloody or dark tarry stools
- Chest pain
- Fatigue
- Vomiting, possibly bloody
- Weight loss
Tests and Exams
To diagnose an ulcer, your doctor may perform a test called an upper endoscopy (EGD).
- This is a test to examine the lining of the esophagus (the tube that connects your throat to your stomach), stomach, and first part of the small intestine.
- It is done with a small camera (flexible endoscope) that is inserted down the throat.
Upper endoscopy is done on most people when peptic ulcers are suspected or when you:
- Are older than 45 to 50
- Have a low blood count (anemia)
- Have trouble swallowing
- Are vomiting blood or your stools are blood or dark and tarry looking
- Have been losing weight without trying
Tests for H. pylori is also needed.
Your doctor may also order these tests:
- Hemoglobin blood test to check for anemia
- Stool occult blood test to test for blood in your stool
Sometimes, you may need a test called an upper GI. A series of x-rays are taken after you drink a thick substance called barium.
Treatment of Peptic ulcer
In order for your ulcer to heal and to reduce the chance it will come back, you will be given medicines to:
- Kill the H. pylori bacteria (if present)
- Reduce acid levels in the stomach
Take all of your medicines as your doctor recommends. Other changes in your lifestyle can also help.
If you have a peptic ulcer with an H. pylori infection, the standard treatment uses different combinations of the following medications for 7- 14 days:
- Two different antibiotics to kill H. pylori
- Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole (Prilosec), lansoprazole (Prevacid), or esomeprazole (Nexium)
- Bismuth (the main ingredient in Pepto-Bismol) may be added to help kill the bacteria
If you have an ulcer without an H. pylori infection, or one that is caused by taking aspirin or NSAIDs, your doctor will likely prescribe a proton pump inhibitor for 8 weeks.
You may also be prescribed this type of medicine if you must continue taking aspirin or NSAIDs for other health conditions.
Other medicines used for ulcers are:
- Misoprostol, a drug that may help prevent ulcers in people who take NSAIDs on a regular basis
- Medicines that protect the tissue lining (such as sucralfate)
If a peptic ulcer bleeds a lot, an EGD may be needed to stop the bleeding. Methods used to stop the bleeding include:
- Injecting medicine in the ulcer
- Applying metal clips to the ulcer
Surgery may be needed if:
- Bleeding cannot be stopped with an EGD
- The ulcer has caused a tear
Prognosis (Outlook)
Peptic ulcers tend to come back if untreated. There is a good chance that the H. pylori infection will be cured if you take your medicines and follow your doctor's treatment advice. You will be much less likely to get another ulcer.
Potential Complications
- Severe blood loss
- Scarring from an ulcer may make it harder for the stomach to empty
- Perforation or hole of the stomach and intestines
When to Contact a Health Professional
Get medical help right away if you:
- Develop sudden, sharp abdominal pain
- Have a rigid, hard abdomen that is tender to touch
- Have symptoms of shock, such as fainting, excessive sweating, or confusion
- Vomit blood or have blood in your stool (especially if it's maroon or dark, tarry black)
Call your doctor if:
- You feel dizzy or light-headed
- You have ulcer symptoms
Prevention of Peptic ulcer
Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, and other NSAIDs. Try acetaminophen instead. If you must take such medicines, talk to your doctor first. Your doctor may:
- Test you for H. pylori before you take these medicines
- Have you take proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) or an acid blocker
- Have you take a drug called misoprostol
The following lifestyle changes may help prevent peptic ulcers:
- Do not smoke or chew tobacco.
- Limit alcohol to no more than two drinks per day.

"Farm livin' is the life for me"
Accompanied by my sister, Ava, Julian and I, along with some friends, went to check out a preschool program at a farm located a few miles from our house yesterday. The woman who owns the farm met with us and gave us a tour while explaining some of the basics about the program and filling us in on the various animals we saw along the way.
Here's a blurb about the program from their website:
Every day is an adventure, designed to inspire wonder and growth and give your young child a sense of rural lifestyle. Even on cold days we will bundle up, climb in the wagon and tour the farm, feed animals, collect eggs, climb the giant treehouse, catch toads, follow bugs, or simply play together in the playhouse. Outdoor activities as well as indoor activities such as art projects, music, games and stories are all part of this program.I really liked what I saw and heard and am seriously considering enrolling Ava in a one day (well, one morning really) a week spot starting in either the summer or the fall. I think it would be an amazing experience for her to spend a day on a working farm once a week.
While there yesterday we saw a mommy goat and her brand new baby that was smaller than a cat, a baby horse (who's mom died) that was rescued from another farm during the December blizzard, peacocks, sheep, dogs and cats and chickens. Ava even held a rooster all by herself! (Wish I would've had a camera with me.) She really seemed at home as she walked around the barn, petting animals, picking up hay to try to feed them, etc. We also peeked in on the "class" which was 8 kids and two "teachers." Ava seemed really comfortable and interested then as well. I'm quite sure she would've been fine with me dropping her off for the day. ;) She threw quite a fit when it was time to go home (ahhh, 2 1/2 year olds), but that's another story.
I'm also looking into other preschool programs (am just starting to learn about Waldorf and Montessori) and would welcome any insight those of you with preschool-aged children (now or in the past) can share. :) I'm really looking for something that's fun and play-based, but still educational to a degree. I'm not worried about her learning letters, numbers, colors, etc. at preschool because she knows most of that already and can learn at home. I really just want her to spend some time around other kids her age (because she is such a social creature) and have a good time.

Ford Ranger Rehash Part 2Posted in Project Vehicles on April 1, 2012
Every project has places where you want to spend time and money and other places where you want to save. Since we're basically starting from scratch with our '97 Ford Ranger's axles and suspension, we have a clean slate. It's at these times that your imagination can run wild with ideas of mega-suspension travel and monster full-width axles. Ultimately though, you have to be realistic with yourself and what you plan on doing with your rig.
At its core our 3.0L Ranger is a great trail wheeler, and over the years we've learned that going slow both on-road and off suits it best. Last month we began our rebuild by bolting in the new 6-inch lift Skyjacker rear leaves. Now we are ready to wrap up the rest of the rear lift and give the springs a fresh axle to bolt to. With the Ranger aftermarket tiny compared to the seemingly endless bounty of Jeep goodies, we figured we'd see what parts could cross over into the Blue Oval arena.
Since our front axle choice (more on that next month) dictates that our rear axle be close to the Ranger's factory width and use a 5-on-41⁄2 wheel bolt pattern, our axle options were a little more limited.
After a bit of calculating we determined that the '87-'95 Jeep Wrangler YJ rear axle would fit perfectly. Why is this important? Because there is a host of YJ rear axle upgrades available from the aftermarket.
For our Ranger we found that the G2 Axle & Gear Rock Jock 60 would ultimately fit our budget and needs the best. The G2 Rock Jock YJ series rear axle is fitted with the aforementioned specs along with 3-inch-diameter axletubes, a high-pinion Dana 60 gearset, 35-spline semifloat axleshafts, and (optional) disc brakes. And since we ordered ours from our local 4Wheel Parts store, the 4.88 G2 gears, brakes, and Detroit Locker were already installed.
With the truck still under the knife at Low Range 4x4 in Wilmington, North Carolina, we continue to make great progress. Low Range specializes in all things 4x4 and has developed a few budget tricks for fitting a solid front axle under our Ranger that we'll be showing you next month. For those who need more Ranger in their life, head over to 4wheeloffroad.com for behind-the-scenes photos and progress updates.
