The Winery is a Crafting Building in FarmVille. By collecting certain bushels, a farmer could produce various beverages in it. It was released on July 20, 2010 in a limited release, with the rest of the users receiving it over the next few days. If you did not choose the Winery as your crafting cottage, it could still be purchased from the Market for 80 FarmVille Cash. On November 24, 2010, Pumpkin Cider was released as a limited edition recipe, which could be mastered like other recipes. It was followed by Green Rose Water on March 11, 2011. Unlike the other recipes, the limited edition recipes achieve full five-star mastery at lower levels, thus being much faster to master.

Recipe and Ingredients Edit
Farmers can increase the level of their recipes to a maximum of Level 100 by producing goods. The recipe increase depends on the level. Higher level recipes cost more and can be used to buy more fuel. Leveling up recipes unlocks the ability to level up the crafting cottage (see table at right). As with other Craft Cottages, it takes six hours for goods to be ready for sale once you start making them but may be finished sooner with FarmVille Cash. Unlike crops, which wither if not harvested within a set amount of time, unfinished goods do not spoil.
There are a total of 15 recipes which can be created at the winery, using bushels from 26 different crops (see table below). It is not necessary to master the crops before using them to craft goods.
Assuming that bushel drop rates are the same for all seeds one can calculate the expected productiveness of different recipes, which are done mostly via do-it-yourself (i.e. bushels found by yourself). Independent from the actual bushel drop rate one can compare different recipes by summing up the growth time of the underlying seeds and dividing that number by the amount of produced products. The lower this value, the higher the output. A Sweet Sake would have a value of (5 * 12 + 3 * 10) / 2 = 45. The Winery recipe with the best productivity is the Fruit Wine (11.33)
Of course, this calculation is done ignoring neighbors - whose bushels and their willingness to buy products is an important factor. Taking them into account you have to think about the following issues:
- Maybe you can not produce as fast as your neighbors buy your products. With a full upgraded Craft Cottage you can finish up to 24 recipes per day, i.e. 48-96 products. With hundreds of active neighbors you should aim to make level 4 or level 5 recipes as these will net the highest income per time - assuming you do get the bushels to create them all.
- When you fetch bushels from neighbors, you can always fetch 3 per neighbor, regardless of their seeds' growth time. I.e., recipes with only very few bushels might be quite productive, regardless of their underlying seeds growth time. Even if only one of your neighbors plants a specific long-growth time seed over and over then a related recipe might be much more productive to you than others.
- If only very few neighbors buy your products then it might be wise to concentrate on one specific recipe that you can produce without a hassle. Since your neighbors often would buy the most expensive product (though it does not have the best fuel/coins ratio), this is the best way to increase your income.
Most of the winery recipes are based on real-world alcoholic beverages. At times, winery owners have seen alternate non-alcoholic names. It has been speculated that the alternate names are intended for farmers under 21 years of age (the legal drinking age in the United States), but farmers older than this have seen the names of their goods switch back and forth.

Editor's note: The good people over at Ralph Nader's campaign humbly asked us to remind you that Mr. Nader IS running for President of the United States (although you probably won't see him in the big corporate debate this Friday night.) and that he needs your help now. This Thursday, September 25, is a National Day of Action to Open the Debates, and we're totally, 100% down with that idea.
While this blog endorses no candidate in the 2008 race, we do believe in free and open speech and that legitimate independent and third-party candidates should have the opportunity to have their voices heard in all of the nationally-televised presidential debates. So we post this action alert from the Nader campaign and encourage our readers to take part in the National Day of Action this Thursday, no matter which candidate they plan to vote for. This isn't about left and right — it's about right and wrong.
If you're a Democrat or a Republican, a Green, a Libertarian, or an independent, I'm sure you would agree that this is an issue of the utmost importance, that we should have fair and inclusive debates during the most critical election season of our lifetimes.
Let's hear what Nader, Barr and McKinney have to say. What harm could there be in giving them a forum?
If you share our belief that these debates should be fair and open, then please take action right away. Below are detailed instructions on how to contact the "Powers That Be." Do it and give `em hell!
(Courtesy of VoteNader.org. Flyers available for download and distribution here.)
Here are five ways you can take action on Thursday to
Open the Debates:
- Write letters to the editor, to the corporations and organizations sponsoring the CPD debates, to the debate moderators and broadcast organizations, and to your friends and family members. Watch this space for links to writing samples you can use for your campaign.
- The debate schedule and moderators' contact information is listed below.
- Click here to see the national sponsors for the CPD debates, with contact information for your phone or letter-writing campaign.
- Click here to see the lineup of corporate sponsors for the first Presidential debate at Ole Miss on September 26th.
- Call the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD), Obama and McCain Campaigns, Talk Shows, and National and Local Media Outlets.
- Contact information for the Commission on Presidential Debates, the debate broadcasters, and the other presidential campaigns is listed below.
- Click here to go to our talk radio call-in information page, and check back often for updates.
- Sign online petitions calling on the media and the Obama and McCain campaigns to agree to America's demand to Open the Debates.
- Support the Open Debates campaign to reform the Presidential Debates process by signing their online petition.
- Crank up a budding petition effort started earlier this month at www.thepetitionsite.com, with the ambitious goal of gathering 100,000 signatures for the inclusion of Ralph Nader and Bob Barr in the debates.
- Print posters, fliers and literature to pass out and hang up at college campuses and other high traffic areas, and banners to display to morning and evening rush hour traffic. You'll find links to downloadable materials at http://votenader.org/debates. Once again, check back often for additions to the collection.
- Protest outside the Democratic and Republican headquarters in your community, at corporations that sponsor the debates, at radio stations, newspapers and media outlets not covering Ralph Nader, Bob Barr, Cynthia McKinney, and other third party candidates.

In 1870, there was a tiny little village in Massachusetts called Whitinsville. It is still there today, but as it was then and is now, Whitinsville (pronounced White-ins-vill) is not a town, but what is called a Census Designated Place. By definition that means it is an area where there is a concentration of people living, as if a town, but it isn't incorporated and there is no separate local municipal government. Whitinsville is officially a part of the town of Northbridge.
Northbridge was originally inhabited by the Nipmuc tribe. It was once part of neighboring Mendon and then later part of Uxbridge, before it became a separate town in 1772. Being locate on the Mumford River, it was ideal for the textile mills that sprung up in the area, providing jobs that attracted European immigrants and locals to the area.
|John Whitin, the patriarch
In the mid 1800s, Alexander Brown immigrated from Ireland to Whitinsville as a young boy. Alexander's bride Ann, was also born in Ireland. In 1870, Alexander and Ann are a young couple living in Whitinsville and Alexander is a Dresser Tender, which is a job in the cotton mill tending the thread on the spindles.
Meanwhile, another fellow also named Brown, Andrew Brown that is, was born in Providence, Rhode Island, not at all far from Whitinsville. Andrew married Almira, also from Rhode Island. They moved to Chicago for a short time in the 1860s after Andrew returned from the war. There, a son Ethelbert was born in 1868. When Ethelbert was just 2 they had moved back to the Northeast and settled in Whitinsville where I found them in the 1870 census as well. Andrew was a boot maker.
|The Black Eagle Tavern, Whitinsville
Andrew and Almira moved back to Providence by 1880, where they raised Ethelbert. Ethelbert met a gal named Margaret Hines and they would have a daughter Hortense. Hortense had a sister Mildred Brown and they grew up in the Franklin area, about 20 miles south of Whitinsville. Hortense Gertrude Brown Locke was my first husband's grandmother, my sons' great grandmother. She lived to be 106, to date my sons' longest lived relative.
Meanwhile, Alexander and Ann Brown, moved from Whitinsville, also about 1880, to Sutton, MA which is also about 10 miles north of Whitinsville. Their son Alexander met and married Alice Moore. They raised their two girls named Anna Brown and Mildred Brown in Sutton. Anna Frances Brown Crowell is my husband Ed's grandmother. Anna's sister, Mildred ALice Brown Kelliher, was my husband's longest lived relative who died in 2002 at the age of 104.
I am not sure what this coincidence means, really. Let's just say that it was a big confusing tangle when I discovered these two Brown families while I was researching my children's (and ex-husband's) families and Ed's ancestry. For a time I was thinking they may have been related, but not so.
|Charles Brown, possibly a common ancestor?

So! I went straight to the underground network of veganhood: the PPK. I asked if there was anyone in Boston who could go to the cafe where said sandwich was sold, and tell me more details about it - so that I could make it for my dad. My PPK pal "Paperweight," did just that! She was really amazing. She took pictures and sent them to me. She told me about each part of the sandwich - how much avocado was there, how thick were the apple slices and so on. It was awesome, and I made the sandwich for my dad, and it was great. Also, it turns out, Paperweight fell in love with that sandwich herself.
Eventually, she moved away, and had to figure out how to make the sandwich for herself. Then, as she told me in her comment, eventually she had the idea to take the ingredients of the sandwich and convert them into a salad (genius move!) It was a great blast-from-the-past to get a comment from her - and to be reminded of that great flavor combo! I took her suggestion, and the resulting salad was truly delicious. Mr. VE&T and I both *totally* loved it. The sharpness of the shallot dressing with the sweetness of the yams & apples, and the creaminess of the avocado all combine into a really great salad experience. And, it's surprisingly filling too.
As Mr. VE&T noted, "This would be good with croutons." (uh, isn't everything good with croutons?) But, he's right, it would be. Or, Paperweight suggested also adding some quinoa, which would be really good too. Maybe next time!
6.5 oz yams ( 2 smallish yams)
4.5 oz lettuce (mixed greens)
4 oz Sunflower sprouts (I'm sure any sprouts would be good)
3.5 oz avocado (1/2 an avocado) - cubed
8 oz apple (1 big apple)
4 oz shallots
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp Agave Nectar
.25 - .5 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Roast the yams:
Oven 375 F. Peel yams, cut into 3/4- inch cubes. Spray lightly with cooking oil. Roast about 45 min until tender.
Make the dressing:
Peel the shallots, slice into paper thin slices. Put in a jar with a lid. Add the vinegar, olive oil, agave, salt and pepper. Put on lid, shake it up. Let it sit for a while to soften the intensity of the r shallots. Shake it whenever you pass by.
Make the salad:
Quarter and core the apple. Slice each quarter-apple into 1/8-inch thick pieces. Put lettuce in bowl. Add sprouts. Add roasted yam cubes. Add apple slices. Add cubed avocado. Add dressing. Toss and eat!

Customers purchasing a new or duplicate driver license, identification card or instruction permit in MVD or Authorized Third Party offices will receive it in the mail. At the offices, customers will be issued a temporary credential with their photo. The credentials are also being redesigned and will have enhanced security features.
You will receive your new credential at the mailing address you provide on your application. It is important that the address be current, complete and where you receive mail from the U.S. Postal Service. Allow up to 15 days for delivery of the new credential.
The new process is more secure and designed to protect your personal information to reduce the chances of fraud. In addition, the complexity of the new credential, along with the security features and processes in place, make it impractical to produce the permanent credential in offices.
The changes became effective June 16, 2014.
The decision to accept the temporary as proof of identity exists solely with the organization requesting to see the license or identification card.
A temporary driver license, identification card and instruction permit are valid for 30 days from the date of issue.
You can go to an office and order a duplicate. You will receive a temporary license before leaving. If you order a duplicate on ServiceArizona.com, you can request express delivery for your license. You will not receive a temporary credential using ServiceArizona.com.
Yes. Residents with a valid driver license or identification card are not required to obtain the redesigned credential immediately. Existing credentials will remain valid either until their date of expiration or until a new photo is required after 12 years.
Yes, but you are not required to do so. Assuming you do not need a new photo, duplicate licenses can be ordered online at ServiceArizona.com. Beginning June 16, 2014, all licenses ordered will have the new design.
Fees vary depending on situations, but there are no changes to the current fee structure.
No, there are no changes to the expiration date.

text: A week after its release in theaters across America, director Ryan Coogler's new Marvel comic-adaptation, Black Panther, is still setting box office records. The film is the 5th highest domestic debut of all time, and the highest grossing February release in history, with a staggering $202,003,951. It earned more in just 3-days in theaters than any other film featuring a black director and predominantly black cast with an impressive worldwide opening weekend gross of $350 million. The success of the film has not only shattered age-old myths surrounding the "unpopularity" of all-black ensemble movies in Hollywood. It is also changing the way Hollywood, and America at large, view films that deal primarily with black and African American culture. But why is Black Panther such a big deal for America and not simply just another superhero movie with a hero who happens to be black? Continue reading

Have fun!
Well behaved women rarely make History
Well the Ride went pretty Well. Cory, Adam Strom, Jeremy Widener, Kyle ? and Myself. We had 4 Tracked Can-ams and Kyle on his sled. We started off at 55 mile trail becasue for some reson Cory wanted to go up it...Welll I was breaking trail, and didnt want to go up the nasty part, so I went to the left. Got my back track caught on a small stump and the track came off. Then Adam somehow got caught in the rut on the main trail and put his on its side. After that disaster, we headed back up the trail. Didnt get far because of the snow drifts going up the hills, so we decided to turn around and head out to scout the Olympia. A litle ways down the trail, we ran into the frozen river. (on the drive up Cory noticed some open water on teh chena and was worried that there would be open water up the trail) With that being said boy wonder decided to "stop for a smoke break" on the ice. I wasnt to keen on that Idea and wanted to get off the ice, special with 5000 lbs of machines and people in a 20 ft spot. Cory decided he was going to start jumping up and down on the ice and heard the hollownes and cracking sound so we go off that real quick. We went a ways up and decided to turn around becasue we were loosing daylight. On the way back Cory was winding through some trees and got his back fender flare and hand guard on a tree...I found the Handguard on the trail and chuckled to my self. Got back to the Hot springs and Cory and I had a refreshment and told lies!!! All and all we had a good time.

text: The wait is over! Fans of the Star Wars saga are flooding movie theaters across the country today as The Last Jedi makes its nationwide debut. Following 2015's The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi picks up roughly 30 years after the events of 1983's Return of the Jedi, and finds a new band of heroes struggling to defeat the evil First Order. But unlike The Force Awakens, which was written and directed by JJ Abrams, The Last Jedi takes on a much darker tone, diving further into character backgrounds and bringing to light the tragic fate of Luke Skywalker and his failed Order of Jedi Knights. That means fans will get to see much more of Mark Hamill in the new film but, given the untimely death of Carrie Fisher, can also expect to see some beloved characters get killed off in the telling. Thus far most critics are hailing writer/director Rian Johnson's installment in the series, which is said to be entirely his own, despite what Abrams may have set up with in the previous film. Although The Last Jedi is expected to launch with a worldwide box office haul of roughly $425 million, it will likely not be enough to match the North American Box Office earnings record for 2016.

Pickup trucks seem to increase in size with the release of every new model year, despite an ongoing push for efficiency and environmental friendliness in the name of improving energy policy. That said, most people (and certainly the auto manufacturers) understand that work still needs to get done, which means cargo still needs to get hauled, and pickup trucks are still one of the best ways to do that. Even though new pickup truck models consistently swell in size, consumers still have a lot of options when it comes to finding a new truck. Some of the new trucks on the market have even borrowed a few tricks from the pro-environment, pro-fuel-efficiency crowd, yet they're still powerful enough to meet the needs of many potential buyers. Pickup trucks are designed to do work, first and foremost, and though many new models tend toward the ostentatious, and sometimes even the glamorous, power is still the highest priority for a lot of truck buyers.
Trying to sort through all the new trucks and recently updated trucks on the market can be confusing. For dedicated truck enthusiasts, who have a lot of experience with pickups and have strong feelings about engine type, cab size, bed size, and other characteristics, it might not be such a chore. Buyers who are new to pickup trucks, however, have a lot of decisions to make. It's tempting to buy a bigger pickup truck than is really necessary, because pickups are intimidating vehicles and have a commanding road presence. But a truck with a large footprint (at least, larger than is necessary) can have some drawbacks down the road. There's the matter of the sticker price – the bigger the truck, the more it tends to cost at the dealership. Then there's the ongoing cost of ownership, of which fuel is a major factor. Typically, it costs more to feed a larger and more powerful vehicle, even if it's fueling capacity and functions that aren't being used at the moment. For people buying a pickup with the intention of using it as efficiently as possible, it's better to be honest about what's really needed and not buy more than necessary. Of course, plenty of people will still buy the largest truck they can afford, whether or not they need it, and that's one of the reasons new trucks have managed to stick around.

Called a "splendid journey into a world of intriguingly complex fantasy" by NYT bestselling author of I Am Legend Richard Matheson, the release of Chaos Unleashed: Book Three of the Shamra Chronicles blends a fast-paced plot featuring a smart, strong female character that's not afraid to kick a little butt -- no matter what the cost.
In the first book, Curse of the Shamra, a young girl named Dara's peaceful and isolated land of the Shamra is invaded and its people enslaved, and she finds herself in the very unfamiliar role of leading a ragtag resistance to defeat the enemy. But even as she fights the invaders, Dara grapples with self-doubt and is criticized by her own people for being outspoken and different. Venturing into uncharted territory to seek allies, Dara encounters unusual creatures and dangerous lands and is forced to come to terms with the fact that she alone is the only hope the Shamra have to regain their freedom.
In Shamra Divided, the second book in the series, Dara has managed to save her people from one enemy but the cost has been high. While Dara struggles to come to terms with the loss of beloved friends, she finds herself thrust into the leadership role of an improbable army and learns that it is her destiny to unite her people as one, even as she faces her biggest challenge: Chaos. Dormant for almost two hundred years, Chaos has returned, intent on destroying Dara.
In Chaos Unleashed: Book Three of the Shamra Chronicles nothing is as it seems in a world where the living mingle with the dead and dreams can turn into frightening reality. Chaos is beginning to spread across the land. Together, with friends from past journeys and new allies who may not be what they seem, Dara must build an army to confront Chaos. But as she and her army prepare for the final battle, Dara realizes that the only person she can really count on is herself. Chaos Unleashed also includes an original bonus novella, SAFE HAVEN, following the adventures of Dara's family.

Zac Efron's Sexiest Shirtless Moments On Screen
Zac Efron won a popcorn at the 2014 MTV Movie Awards for Best Shirtless performance for his scenes in That Awkward Moment, but this honor was a long time coming. The 20-something heartthrob has been shedding his shirt to the delight of movie audiences ever since his High School Musical days.
Here's a look back at the more memorable performances of Efron's abs. They're so popular, they even have their own Twitter handle, @ZacEfron_Abs!
First up is his upcoming comedy Neighbors, where he plays a (shirtless) fratboy who terrorizes his new neighbors, played by Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne.

I have had the privilege of being a guest of Don Rosa in his Louisville home three times: in 1996, 2000 and most recently 2008. Last January I had a very pleasant weekend with Don and Ann and their menagerie of pets, of whom my favourite is the white cockatoo called Gyro.
It was wonderful to be able to admire Don's creations in glorious full size and to play "find the D.U.C.K." with him looking over my shoulder and complaining when I was too quick ("I spent so much time hiding that one and you find it in a few seconds!"; but there were others I couldn't find without his hint...). I guess at some point I'll have to write something about Don's latest work, his magnificent composite Uncle Scrooge posters, all based on events described in Barks stories, that have recently been published in some European countries, for example on a 2008 calendar in Finland. But, before I get sidetracked, let me get to the topic of today's podcast.
When I visited Don in 1996, I was collecting material for the book about him that I was writing with Leonardo Gori and Alberto Becattini, Don Rosa e il rinascimento disneyano (Comic Art, 1997). For that book, I interviewed Don several times: once in his living room while we were looking at some of his old pre-Disney works, once in his library (Don and I in Louisville and Leonardo in Florence, using a text-based chat program on Don's computer) and then two more times via email after getting back to Cambridge. All four of these interviews appeared in the book. However the book is now out of print, the publisher no longer exists, and the text wasn't even in English to start with; in summary, I don't expect many of you to have much of a chance to read it.
So this time, more than ten years later, we sat in the comfy chairs in Don's studio and started the recorder, having agreed on my plan of publishing the interview on the web as both text and audio. I started with some questions about his lesser known pre-Disney beginnings, of course without worrying if some of this material had already appeared in the book. In fact, I'll take this as a chance to complement and illustrate the interview with some of the material I collected from Don for the book back in 1996 (particularly items that could not be included in the book and that are therefore being published for the first time on this blog).
We chatted for quite a long time; so, for listening and transcribing convenience, I'll have to break the interview up into chunks of about 10 minutes each. (Remember, each episode takes just 10 minutes to listen to, but several days of loving labour to prepare for publication...)
Here we go with the first installment! Download the audio as mp3 or play it directly from the browser using the flash gadget below.
FS: So, what's the date? Sunday the 20th of January 2008. We are here in Don Rosa's studio, where all the famous stories have been created, and we are having a nice chat together. That's the third time I'm here and I'm going to ask you a few things I've asked you many times before. I've interviewed you many times both in person and by e-mail and so on. You don't mind that I ask you some things again?
DR: Not at all!
...because I think it's going to be nice for people who hear this interview to be able to hear it from your voice instead of just seeing it written down.
Okay, if they are ...easily amused, I'll satisfy them!
Why don't we start at the beginning, with your first published duck story, the Son of the Sun?
You came out as a comics author relatively late in life compared to most comics authors because you had been doing... many things!
Well, yeah, because I never intended to do it for a living: it was just a hobby! And I came out very early as being a cartoonist for a hobby; I mean, I was doing that since my earliest memory! And as you have seen I still have the actual comic books that I was doing when I was maybe five or six years old! I came out very early as an amateur cartoonist, probably earlier than anybody else; but, as you say, very late as a professional, since I thought I was only going to be an amateur.
So, these cartoons that you were doing for yourself, the fascinating things that we have here in the book, were [done] when you were at school; but, after that, you also started amateur cartoons that other people could see.
Right, the ones I did as a kid that you referred to just now, had been only for my own amusement: nobody would see them and I wouldn't show them to friends. My parents, you know, they thought it was a waste of time, I was just doing something to entertain myself. But then, by the time I got to... well even in grade school (I went to a Catholic boys private school so there was both the elementary school and high school in the same unit) I was working for the high school newspaper when I was still in grade school, because they didn't have any people in high school who could draw as good as I could, or as funny. So I was getting stuff published back when I was 10 or 11 years old.
What kind of stuff was that?
Illustrations in the school newspaper; have we ever looked at that stuff?
I don't think we did.
Oh, that's another box of stuff we need to dig into, some time. And then, of course, in the high school, I was all the way through or... I think I was the first ever freshman to work on the high school newspaper, because again they never had a freshman cartoonist... again I was tempted to say "about as good as I was", it's not that I was good but nobody else did it; so, what do they say, "in the valley of the blind, the one eyed man is king!" [laughter] And then again, when I went to college, I remember the first day I was on campus I walked over to the...
Sorry, so what was the comic you were drawing when you were a freshman?
There wasn't a comic strip, it was just illustrations, just to illustrate an article. They were doing one panel jokes, not a continuing character or anything, not a comic book.
So: someone would write an article, give it to you and say "illustrate that"?
"Draw something that goes with it."
Do you still have any of these?
Well, like I say, I believe so, it's just that you've never asked me for them!
Shall we dig for them later then?
Okay, right, we'll do that.
And then, at the University of Louisville---whoops, I forgot where I went to college! At the University of Kentucky, civil engineering, the first day I was on campus, before school even started, I went over to the journalism building and went in and asked them if... of course I was just a freshman, but if they needed a political cartoonist. And I remember they were very, very anxious; you know, they don't have any trouble getting sports editors by any means or managing editors etc etc; but getting a cartoonist, they said it was a very rare thing! So the first issue of the first newspaper when I was just a rank freshman in college had a cartoon that I did. And I know I've got all of those: I've got every single one of those! But they were political cartoons and I, in those days, I was not that political. I was more or less still like comic books. And even today, I am not so much political as... the Republicans have forced me to be anti-Republican. I mean, I didn't get into the matters of different political parties when Republicans were just the wrong political party. But in the George Bush administration they became actually evil and I really have lots of animated discussions with friends and I'm not a political cartoonist any more but if I felt as feverish about it then as I do now, I would have been a really devoted political cartoonist, I would have gotten a lot more fun out of it, because I just hate Republicans. I'm not really pro-Democrat, I'm just anti-Republican. I wish I had been that politically minded in those days; but, in those days, I just liked to draw and I liked to have people see what I was drawing, because I was used to drawing, since my earliest memory, doing drawings that nobody ever saw! Now people were anxious to publish what I drew, so they would tell me what their editorial was about and they would suggest to me what the cartoon would be and I hope I had some contribution to the idea of what the cartoon would be, they might have told me what they wanted the idea to get across and I put it into my own way of expression but... certainly I was not drawing cartoons to profess a belief that I did not believe in, you know; I may not have believed in it as strongly as they did, I'll say so. So I was a political cartoonist, I would think a bad political cartoonist if I wasn't that politically minded, and yet I won a national award: sophomore or junior year, the best political cartoonist in the nation in a college paper, got that stashed around here somewhere.
That was at age 18 - 19?
Let's see, I went to... yeah, 19 and my early 20s, 1969 so I'd been, yeah... no, you're right, 18 [laughter]. No, that would be late 1969, so I'd be 19... 18... never mind!
And that was the same newspaper that later had your comic stories?
Yeah, that would be the same newspaper that, after the first couple of years I was used to doing cartoons for them, political cartoons, I wanted to do something that I wanted, you know, comic books! So that's what I did the Pertwillaby papers for, that's the newspaper I did the first "Son of Sun" version for.
You always said that they wanted "something more like Doonesbury".
Right, they hired me to do a Doonesbury-type strip and I think I started out...
They asked for that because you had already done political cartoons as little sketches and they said "if you wanna do comics, then do that"?
Sure! Plus, the editors of a college newspaper, I was there for fun, they were there for their future job! They were trying to impress, they had got to turn out a body of work that is going to impress some editors some day to hire them, so they were not interested in me doing comics for entertainment, I have to do comics that have social meanings to them, like Doonesbury! [That] was the first newspaper comics strip that has social meaning; in fact, in Louisville, they had never put Doonesbury on the comics page, because in this sort of backwards Southern climate (not that we are in the South), but they did not feel that comics should have any meaning: they were simply entertainment. Doonesbury was very popular, they couldn't ignore it, but it had political contents so they couldn't put something with opinion onto the comics page: that had to be on the editorial page. I'm not even sure if they don't still do it! Anyway, so, like you say, the editors at the college newspaper would allow me to do a newspaper comic strip only if it had political content. I started out introducing a cast of characters, strange characters, similar to the strange cast of characters that was already in Doonesbury, this was in the very early years of Doonesbury. But halfway through the first semester I turned it into an adventure story, very similar to an Uncle Scrooge adventure with Gyro Gearloose I guess. In fact, I'm sure I've shown it to you if you remember, there is a building where the plot involves that my main character has to break into it. The building was a vault of college records but I drew the McDuck money bin, without a dollar sign on the front---just, you know, for my own amusement: I was seeing it as a Beagle Boys caper, getting into the money bin.
And how was that received by the readers of this paper?
Uhmmm... the readers... as I recall, all the way through college and even when I did Captain Kentucky and even when I was doing stuff for the fan magazines, the reader reaction was tremendous apathy. I could never tell anybody was reading any of this stuff, I'd never get any feedback. But if you ask how the editors responded to it, they didn't like it, because it was just entertainment. They could see I didn't plan to put any social commentary into it so they were... at least they didn't cancel it, they let me finish that semester. I finished that story and then, when I came back the next semester, all ready to go with the new adventure... I was ready with the Son of the Sun, that's the one that I was leading up to; I was building my cast of characters in the first semester's worth of episodes and then there was the second semester that I was going to go into Uncle Scrooge type stories. And when I showed up with this, they said they didn't want it, because it was just entertaining (theoretically entertaining!) and so I quit. If they didn't want... I mean, I just lost interest: political cartoons didn't appeal to me that much.
So you had thought of this adventure as an Uncle Scrooge adventure in your heart?
Yeah; it's hard to remember exactly how I regarded it but certainly it was an Uncle Scrooge-type adventure. I can see Uncle Scrooge in the cast, in the characters. I certainly didn't think of it in that sense that I knew that some day I was going to turn it into an uncle Scrooge adventure, I knew that was impossible, I wasn't going to do this for a living, it was just something to do with college and I didn't work for a comics company, the very thought was superhuman! Comic book companies were something in New York City or something... Disney comics were already more or less out of business in America: they were all reprints by 1970 or 1971.

The combination of repeat performances and several first-time accomplishments led to a successful spring sports season that was key in Hope College celebrating another championship year in athletics.
For an 11th consecutive year Hope has won the Commissioner's Cup of the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA), but achieving it was no small task.
The Commissioner's Cup is presented to the MIAA-member school with the best cumulative finish across the 18 league-sponsored sports for men and women. Hope's long string of Commissioner's Cup success was in serious jeopardy through the winter sports campaign as rival Calvin held a sizeable point advantage.
Unprecedented success across the board among the spring sports teams sparked the "rally" with Hope claiming The Cup for a record 33rd time in school history.
Headlining spring performances was the men's track and field team which for the first time in a quarter of a century claimed a share of the MIAA championship. Late-season rallies keyed second rallies in both baseball and softball. The women's tennis team also finished second while the men's tennis squad ended third.
The men's track and field co-championship with rival Calvin was Hope's first since 1986. Coach Kevin Cole was a member of that 80s championship team. In his six seasons as head coach track and field has experienced a resurgence with numerous national qualifiers and school records established. The year's Flying Dutch placed second in the MIAA women's track and field standings.
Track and field also dominated the list of spring accomplishments. Senior Nicholas Rinck of Hudsonville, Mich. became the first Hope male athlete to win an event (400 meter hurdles) at the MIAA championships four consecutive years. Two-sport athlete Kara Vande Gutche of Hamilton, Mich. achieved All-MIAA honors in track and field four consecutive years and became just the ninth Hope athlete all-time to receive all-league honors six times over her career, having received the designation twice in volleyball. Rinck, Vande Gutche and senior Heidi Grooters of Jenison, Mich. each received MIAA most valuable trackster awards.
Senior high jumper John Donkersloot of Zeeland, Mich. excelled at nationals with an All-America performance (fourth place) for a third consecutive year.
History was also made in softball. Senior Andrea Reinecke of Eaton Rapids, Mich. threw the first perfect game by a Hope softball pitcher against an MIAA opponent when she blanked Kalamazoo 10-0. It capped an outstanding season under first-year coach Mary Vande Hoef who guided the Flying Dutch to a 25-15-1 season mark behind a base-running style that resulted in a record 90 stolen bases.
Junior pitcher Adam Clements of Saline, Mich. was brilliant on the mound as he achieved All-MIAA and All-Region baseball honors behind a sterling 1.29 earned run average. His 7-3 record was instrumental in Hope's second place MIAA finish and overall 26-14 mark under veteran coach Stu Fritz.
Both tennis teams were competitive against conference opponents. The race to the MIAA women's tennis championship came down to a single point with Albion prevailing over the Flying Dutch, 5-4. Katherine Garcia of Battle Creek, Mich., the only senior on the women's tennis ended her career with an outstanding 73-21 record in doubles play. The Flying Dutchmen tennis team continued to excel on the court and in the classroom. Senior Brad Boelkins of Ada, Mich. received the MIAA's Lawrence Green Scholar Award and senior co-captain Jeff Vredenburg of Grand Rapids, Mich. was named a national Fulbright Scholar.
Excellence extended beyond Hope's intercollegiate program as evidenced this spring by its club lacrosse teams.
The women's lacrosse team, under first-year coach Tracy Benjamin, advanced to the tournament of the Women's Collegiate Lacrosse League for the first time in school history and finished the season with an 11-3 record.
Men's lacrosse, which has been part of the Hope club landscape since the 1970s, received a first-time bid to the Men's Collegiate Lacrosse Association tournament and concluded the year ranked in the top ten nationally with a 12-3-1 record under coach Mike Schanhals.
Senior captain Eric Weber of Saline, Mich., pictured above, earned first team All-American MCLA honors for a third straight year and ended his collegiate career as the all-time leader in goals scored (303) among all levels of college lacrosse.

Juvenile Detention Staffer in Sioux Falls Sentenced to Jail
SIOUX FALLS - A former juvenile detention center employee in Sioux Falls has been sentenced to about half a year in jail for having sex with a female inmate.
The Argus Leader reports 25-year-old Lorenzo Brown Jr. can clear his record if he successfully completes four years of probation.
Prosecutor Bill Golden argued against that, saying Brown had taken advantage of the girl and given the public a reason to question the safety of the Minnehaha Juvenile Detention Center.
A psychiatric evaluation determined Brown became too personally involved with the girl after she talked about suicide and that he had a low risk for sexual violence. Judge Kathleen Caldwell said she didn't consider Brown a pedophile.
Brown was a star quarterback who led the University of Sioux Falls to two NAIA championships.

text: Hi All We use the open source Grid Engine, Enterprise Edition v5.3, here to manage job submission to our 70 processor Beowulf. I'm rather new to managing Grid Engine and my users have me baffled with a question of priorities. The scenario is this: - suppose that there is a job running on 40 processors, leaving 30 free; - a high priority job, requesting 64 processors, is submitted; - a low priority, but long, job, requesting 24 processors is submitted. Currently, with our configuration, the low priority job would be run immediately, since there are more than 24 processors available. However, my users want to hold that job until the high priority job has run. Can we configure Grid Engine so that the low priority job is not started until after the high priority job, even though there are resources available for the low priority job when it is submitted ? Thanks for any help you can provide. PS Yes I have RTFMed and am not much the wiser on this specific question. -- Mark Westwood Software Engineer OHM Ltd The Technology Centre Offshore Technology Park Claymore Drive Aberdeen AB23 8GD United Kingdom +44 (0)870 429 6586 www.ohmsurveys.com
