Ancient Rome.
Queen Elizabeth I.
The Louisiana Purchase.
Topics that generally are part of a late-night cram session for college history courses are anything but that for four Camanche Middle School students.
Ancient civilizations, famous world leaders and the development of the United States are just minor categories within a Regional History Bee that eighth-graders Ciera Leary and Chase Wood and seventh-graders Garrett Evans and Chloe Vogel recently qualified for through an online competition.
The four students will participate in the National History Bee Regional finals in Chicago on April 1.
Talented and Gifted instructor Erin Daniels couldn't believe when all four students made it to the regional round.
"The kids are all self-motivated," Daniels said. "They want to try hard and succeed."
With this being the first year for participating in the history bee, Daniels didn't know what to expect when the four students, who placed the highest in a written exam among Camanche students, took a crack at qualifying for the regional bee.
What happened was that Leary, Wood, Evans and Vogel were among 123 students chosen to participate at the next level.
"I was honestly surprised," Vogel said. "I knew the odds were stacked against us. I figured we might get one or two." Instead, all four now have the opportunity to advance to the national championships on April 28 in Arlington, Va.
Individuals qualify for the national championships by finishing in the top half of the draw in their division during preliminary rounds in the regional, or by advancing a stage in the finals. The regional bee consists of two parts, the preliminary rounds and the playoffs. The preliminary rounds consist of students in groups of four to eight. Each student plays three rounds of 30 questions each. Students are ranked in order to the number of points they collected during the three rounds. Once a student gets eight points in a round, they are finished with that round.
Eventually, the students advance to the finals and a champion is crowned. Participants earn one point per correct answer, but lose a point if they are the third student to answer incorrectly before the end of the question.
"A lot of my kids like to be sure of themselves," Daniels said. "They think through each answer. It's sometimes hard to buzz in and take a guess. It will be different for them, but we've been practicing."
The group practices with buzzers, but that seems to almost be a bigger challenge than knowing tidbits about ancient cultures and anything that ends in "war."
"The buzzer is my weak part," Wood said.
For most of them, this isn't the first time competing in an academic challenge. Leary has participated in an academic bee before, and the historical format drew her to this event. Evans has never been in one of these competitions, but he's confident in his knowledge of history, especially if it's United States war history.
"This was just another bridge for me to cross," Evans said. "History really is an intriguing subject."
Daniels said students must have a knack for history because there are so many topics.
If one or all four students advance, they will have an opportunity to be on television because the History Channel showcases the national championships.

Comments about Philips 50 Watt Equivalent, 8 Watt, 120 Volt DIMMABLE 25,000-Hr 2700K Warm White LED PAR20 Bulb:
Used to replace burnt out halogen Par20 accent lighting. With these, I can't even tell the halogens were replaced because they look the same! Added bonus is the lower heat and energy consumption.

Different than incandescents replaced
By Calvin the Conservationist
From Long Beach, CA
About Me Value Oriented
Replaced some, then all, of 8 incandescents in living room recessed ceiling cans. 2700k LEDs produce far whiter light compared to incandescents. I would prefer a lower color temp, similar to incadescents. However, my spouse likes the whiter light. Light seems to be more directional than incandescents, more focused on smaller area directly underneath bulb. (standard 8 foot ceiling) Would prefer more diffuse light output. Small bulb fit into tight can fixture with room to spare. Reduced heat will be nice on hot summer nights. Hoping the high purchase price truly pays off in reduced energy consumption and extended bulb life as advertised.
That's why we make the process as easy as possible and pledge to never leave you in the dark when it comes
to buying replacement bulbs and lighting accessories.

ACT test registration can be done one of two ways. The first, and easiest way, is to register online at the ACT website.

With ACT test registration online you will know immediately if your preferred test center has space for you to test and you can print your admission ticket.
ACT test registration must be done online if you plan to test at an international test center.
To register for the ACT through the mail you must request a register-by-mail packet. You can request a register-by-mail packet here. There are two situations when ACT test registration must be done by mail. They are 1) you are younger than 13 and 2) if you want to pay by check or money order.
The basic fees for the ACT are $33.00 for the ACT without the writing section or $48.00 for the ACT plus writing. It's important that you register on time or there will be a $21.00 late registration fee.
The ACT also offers a Test Information Release (TIR) service.

Great settings and waterproof, too!
By Pashazz
from La Mecca
This product is small, pretty, and unobtrusive, but packs a lot of punch! Its settings are powerful and distinct; you can feel the changes in settings - which is like getting 8 for the price of one. I got the light purple/orchid color first, and next I am going to get the light pink one for the G-spot stimulation. I will own the entire set because each has its special purpose. :) This is the best bed and bath toy I have ever played with, and I never tire of it.

A Massachusetts pharmacy has issued a voluntary recall of some sterile compounding products following an inspection by state and federal officials.
Pallimed Solutions Inc., of Woburn, said Monday the recall is a precautionary measure involving certain items that had been dispensed since the beginning of the year.
The company says there are no reports of any illnesses or injuries. It says it issued the recall after a recent unannounced inspection by the state Board of Pharmacy and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The state issued a cease-and-desist order after the inspection.
The company says the recall does not involve its non-sterile compounding products.
The state stepped up inspections of compounding pharmacies after a deadly fungal meningitis outbreak was linked to a steroid produced at another Massachusetts company, New England Compounding Center.

Controversy over police license plate photography in Little Rock, ArkansasA police car with a device that photographs license plates moves through the city and scans the traffic on the streets, relaying the data it collects to a computer for sifting. Police say the surveillance helps identify stolen cars and drivers with outstanding arrest warrants.It also allows authorities to monitor where average citizens might be at any particular time. That bothers some residents, as well as groups that oppose public intrusions into individual privacy. The groups are becoming more alarmed about license plate tracking as a growing number of police departments acquire the technology.Though authorities in Washington, D.C., London and Chicago conduct extensive electronic surveillance of public areas to detect security threats or deter gang crime, "Today, increasingly, even towns without stoplights have license plate readers," said Catherine Crump, a New York-based staff attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union.
Lawmakers in several states, including Minnesota and Utah, have suggested setting a time limit for their departments, but Little Rock has no policy yet. The department now has a growing archive of license plate photos, along with time stamps and the locations, showing where motorists were at certain times.Privacy advocates worry about the potential uses for such outside law enforcement, from snooping by stalkers and private investigators to businesses that sell personal data.

Preferred securities combine some of the characteristics of both common stocks and bonds. Preferred securities are typically subordinated to bonds and other debt instruments in a company's capital structure, in terms of priority to corporate income, and therefore will be subject to greater credit risk than those debt instruments.

High-yield securities are subject to numerous risks, including higher interest rates, economic recession, deterioration of the junk bond market, possible downgrades and defaults of interest and/or principal. High-yield security prices tend to fluctuate more than higher rated securities and are affected by short-term credit developments to a greater degree.
An investment in a fund containing equity securities of foreign issuers is subject to additional risks, including currency fluctuations, political risks, withholding, the lack of adequate financial information, and exchange control restrictions impacting foreign issuers. These risks may be heightened for securities of companies located in, or with significant operations in, emerging market countries.
The fund invests in securities of non-U.S. issuers. Such securities are subject to higher volatility than securities of domestic issuers. Because the fund's NAV is determined on the basis of U.S. dollars and the fund invests in foreign securities, you may lose money if the local currency of a foreign market depreciates against the U.S. dollar.

In Febuary of this year Chris was arrested for assualt on his girlfriend (at the time) Rhianna. Since this happened there has been a lot of contraversay on what happened and he has been attacked with insalts and racial slurs on Facebook, Myspace and other internet sites. On his officail home page he has an apoligie video and I think that he deserves the chance to prove he is truly sorry for what happened. Check it out.
In part of the video he says that he grew up in a house with violence. If you didn't know he saw his step dad beat his mother when he was still very young. It would be a very hard thing to expeirince and it would affect him for many years to come.
I belive that Chris is a good person that made a very big mistake. It was a choice that was made out of anger and I hope he gains forgivness from more and more people. He is still the same person he was before and thats never going to change.

Daily Item
---- — You will be hard-pressed to find many people who will feel bad for Mark Emmert, yet there is little doubt the NCAA president has had a rough couple of weeks.
After over-stepping its bounds and punishing Penn State's football program last summer without ever doing its own investigation, the NCAA followed with a pair of botched investigations, one involving a UCLA basketball player and then the University of Miami disaster this week. Then the NCAA doubled down, suing Pennsylvania for its new law to keep the $60 million in Sandusky-related fines within the state's borders.
The NCAA has a thankless job, for sure. It tries to oversee an amateur sports organization overflowing with money. For the most part the NCAA does a satisfactory job hosting championship events, generating huge amounts of revenue from things like the Division I men's basketball tournament — some of which gets cycled to the institutions themselves.
How the money is divided among schools is sometimes determined by the success on the field or court or pool. Whether that is a fair way to allocate hundreds of millions of dollars is up for debate, but there is little doubt that the system lends itself to occasional rule-bending by some schools, or boosters, to achieve athletic success.
It is the NCAA's job to find which institutions are working in the gray area of college athletics and it is a difficult task at times. This week we found out that the NCAA itself was working in those same areas trying to wrap up its investigation into Miami's athletic department, hiring lawyers of individuals it is investigating to ask questions on the NCAA's behalf.
That news is particularly troubling and sounds like Emmert has a "lack of institutional control," at the NCAA. Maybe that is why the NCAA took the Freeh Report as gospel, because it saved the organization time and money, and also the risk of botching another high-profile case.
From his altar, Mark Emmert has castigated many for their lack of oversight in their programs. It has cost people jobs, programs scholarships and universities millions of dollars. Yet Emmert remains above the fray and untouchable.
This week Emmert said he had no idea what was going in the ranks below him. That has not been an acceptable excuse for coaches and administrators around the country under Emmert's watch, and should not be acceptable for him now.

Wilder Ranch SP
State Park
The park has 34 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails winding through coastal terraces and valleys. Several restored buildings once belonging to the Wilder family are preserved. The park has tours and living history demonstrations to help visitors explore the history of early ranchers and farmers along the Central Coast. The site was originally the main rancho supplying Santa Cruz Mission. It later became a successful and innovative dairy ranch. Surrounding grounds include Victorian homes, gardens, and historic adobe.
Location - Directions
The park is north of Santa Cruz, immediately west of Highway One, approximately 1.8 miles past the Western Drive stoplight.
Seasons - Climate - Recommended clothing
The weather can be changeable; layered clothing is recommended.
Wilder Ranch SP does not all allow dogs.
Wilder Ranch Restoration Plan
Wilder Ranch State Park includes coastal habitat and recreational area with some in agriculture, some cattle grazing and a culture preserve. Approximately 110 acres were identified to be restored to historic habitat conditions and native vegetation. The area had great potential as a model for the restoration of coastal wetlands. It included Wilder Beach, saltmarsh, grassland, and riparian habitats, as well as three agricultural fields. From 1992 to 1994, the Benthic Lab group researched historical land use, and past and present physical and biological conditions of the Wilder Ranch restoration area. They proposed and designed restoration alternatives. The information was presented as a plan which the California Department of Parks and Recreation used to develop and implement the restoration of the park.
The restoration has been extremely successful. Since 1994, the agricultural fields have been returned to wetland and riparian habitats with their native tree, shrub and plant species. Wetland birds, and hawks nest in habitat that formerly was farmland. Red-legged frogs and other wetland animals have moved into the area. The riparian corridor along Wilder Creek has been widened to about 100 feet. Dogwood, alder, cottonwood and willows planted in 1994 have grown at a good rate, with some trees already over twenty feet tall. The adjacent upland restoration also has been successful. With continued monitoring to eradicate pest plant species such as hemlock and thistle, Wilder Ranch will become one of the showcase coastal wetland restoration sites.

Nothing epitomises 1920s glamour like the art deco movement. A style started in Paris that would eventually spread round the world - finding its way into the design of New York's Chrysler and Empire State buildings as well as London Underground's stations and posters. Indeed, the art deco style is brilliantly captured in the travel posters of the time which convey the early excitement of travel by rail, motorcar and boat. That the style has remained popular is a testament to the quality of the design associated with the movement.

The Dressing Room wants everybody to go to the prom.
That's the sentiment that prompted Prom-N-Aide last year and is bringing it back this year.
The free event which helps local girls find affordable prom dresses will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 23 and from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. March 24 at The Dressing Room in The Neighborhood, 25th and Carver Avenue.
Girls will have the chance to browse and try on formalwear for prom; girls may choose one dress to keep at no charge.
Executive director Lucy Davis said last year, The Dressing Room had about 100 dresses and gave away 44.
"Everybody's not going to find what they want that also fits," she said. This year, she thinks the crowd might be bigger but they'll have more than 300 dresses to offer to any girl who wants one.
"All the high schools are eligible. It doesn't matter where you're from, but you have to be here," Davis said, noting for those who don't have established accounts at The Dressing Room, one will be established the day of the event.
"Some girls haven't needed our services but they do need it to afford to go to the prom," she said.
The event also will have jewelry, shoes and accessories and makeup consultants from Mary Kay.
On Saturday, a seamstress will be present to give dresses a quick hem, if needed. Sweet and Sassy Treats will provide snacsk.
Davis said the store will clear its floor and use that space and the hall outside to display dresses. Neighboring Clean Start and the restrooms will be used as changing rooms.
Also the hallway will be the display area for accessories, hygiene items and other things that might be needed on prom night.
The Dressing Room will be closed Friday for volunteers to set up, Davis said.
The Dressing Room was founded in 1920 and is the oldest of the nonprofits within The Neighborhood collaborative.
The Dressing Room's second annual Prom-N-Aide will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 23 and from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. March 24 at The Dressing Room in The Neighborhood, 25th and Carver Avenue. For more information, call (606) 324-5400.

NORMAN – Oklahoma separated itself from the rest of the Big 12 Conference in a couple ways last Saturday.
The victory over Notre Dame is far and away the most impressive out-of-conference win by any Big 12 team this season. But the way the Sooners played in the fourth quarter of that 35-21 victory was something else entirely. Against a ranked team, on the road, OU possessed the ball for 12:11 of the fourth quarter's 15 minutes, putting the game on ice by running out the clock.
"That's something we always work on at some point. But the way that we ran the ball on Saturday definitely helped out with that," OU offensive lineman Bronson Irwin said.
The 11th-ranked Sooners (4-0, 1-0 Big 12) would love to have a similar fourth quarter when it faces TCU (2-2, 0-1) at 6 p.m. today at Owen Field.
That kind of final 15 minutes would keep the Sooners unbeaten and atop the conference. It would also be another example of OU imposing its will on another quality opponent.
There aren't many Big 12 teams who've shown the capability to do what OU did at Notre Dame: force three straight three-and-outs defensively, coupled with controlling the game clock with the run game; very much a lost art in today's college game.
The Big 12's reputation for prolific up-tempo offenses has been well earned. But the league's reputation for porous defense has been, too.
Think back to last season when OU had to keep rolling up points in the fourth quarter because that's what it took to stay ahead in a shootout.
OU was prepared for another last Saturday. As it took the field with 5:39 left and the ball at its own 40-yard line, coach Bob Stoops was rallying the defense. He figured it would need to make one more stop to end the game.
Defensive coordinator Mike Stoops didn't think so. He grabbed center Gabe Ikard right before the offense trotted on the field.
"He told me, 'Run this clock out!'" Ikard said. "We accepted that challenge."
OU has put some very good teams on the field unable to do exactly that. Instead, the Sooners have had to throw the ball to move the chains, risking stop-the-clock incompletions.
As good as the Sooners were in 2008, the lasting memory is of Florida running out the clock against OU in the national championship game. Every year since, there's been at least one loss rooted in the Sooners' inability to get a big stop or run the ball in the fourth quarter.
"It was big when you can control the ball that way," Bob Stoops said. "When they don't have it, they're not scoring. Hopefully, we can keep that up because it does give you an advantage."
This was the major philosophical change OU wanted to make for 2013. It was no longer willing to expose its defense by consistently playing at high tempo. Still, making it happen required consistency in the run game.
The results have been exactly what OU sought. It's averaging a 4:31 time-of-possession advantage through four games. And the Sooners are one of only two teams in the 10-team conference average on the plus side of that chart. TCU is the other, though the Horned Frogs are possessing the ball just 21 seconds longer, on average, than its opponents.
The Sooners have clearly decided to buck the Big 12 trend this season. The art of running the ball, playing stout defense and wearing teams down never quit working. National championship teams have proven that.
That's where OU got the idea from. The Sooners will try it again today.
Sooners would like another 4th quarter like last week's

House fire
HARRIS COUNTY, Texas -- A family was devastated after returning home early Thursday to find a massive fire had destroyed everything they owned.
It happened on Saddle Creek at Sandy Cliffs in northwest Harris County.
No one was home at the time of the blaze, but a neighbor who saw the flames didn't know that, and he rushed into action.
Fearing the family may be trapped inside, he tried to force his way in.
"I tried to kick the front door in," said Jacob Upchurch. "The deadbolt was too strong, so I ran around to the back door -- kicked the back door. Tried to bust a window out but the kitchen was -- it was just too much smoke -- too much fire."
Luckily, no one was hurt in the fire.
Hours later, firefighters were still trying to figure out what sparked the blaze. They said a candle may have been left burning while the family was out.

---- — Here's a recipe from our staff files. Baklava isn't hard to make, it just takes a little time — and a lot of butter.
Dealing with thawed phyllo dough can be tricky. It's important to work fast and not let the dough get too warm.
But it's worth the effort. People will be impressed. And one pan makes many servings. Just cut in diagonal pieces and serve in festive cupcake wrappers. Unless they are made of foil, it's best to not cut and put the pieces in the wrappers until more than around two or three hours before serving.
1 lb. ground walnuts
5 T. sugar
¼ t. allspice
2¼ t. cinnamon
Around 1 lb. butter, melted
1 box frozen phyllo dough
Grind walnuts in food processor and mix spices and sugar in it.
Thaw phyllo in fridge or on counter. This is tricky, you have to work fast with it because if it gets too thawed/warm, it sticks to itself. Usually there are two packets in a box, so work with one and leave other in fridge in the meantime. Still, it does have to be fully thawed or it will crack when you try to unroll it.
Spread a cookie sheet with melted butter using a basting brush. Lay out one layer of dough. Brush it with butter. Repeat this for about seven layers, buttering each layer. Then spread about ⅕ of nut mixture over the seventh layer. Cover with another layer and butter that. Repeat the walnut mixture/new layer/butter step four more times. Then do another six to seven layers of phyllo, buttering between each layer. Butter top layer and take a sharp or serrated knife and cut diagonally, penetrating the surface just about ⅛ inch — just enough to make an impression in the dough after it bakes.
Bake at 350° for one hour, laying foil over it for the last 15 minutes it if it appears to be browning too fast. Let cool for a time after removing from oven. Meanwhile, bring to boil:
2 c. sugar
1 c. water
4 T. honey
Half lemon
When it's boiling, pour in juice of half a lemon (minus the seeds), throwing in the squeezed half lemon also, and let mixture boil another five minutes, stirring constantly. Spoon this mixture over baklava, letting it soak a day or two before you cut it.
Share your favorite recipe with fellow food lovers, and we'll send you an apron. Please provide recipe, along with your name, mailing address, phone number and some details on you, where you got the recipe and why you like it, to: Recipe of the Week, Record-Eagle, 120 W.

COLUMBUS (AP) _ Raymond Philyaw helped Kansas City clinch a
playoff spot, throwing seven touchdown passes in the Brigade's
47-to-34 victory over the Columbus Destroyers tonight in the Arena
Football League.
Philyaw was 23-of-31 for 240 yards, and Charles Frederick led
the Brigade (9-5) in receiving with ten catches for 78 yards and
two touchdowns. Three-hundred-and-60 pound lineman Jamarr Ward
lumbered 13 yards with a screen pass for Kansas City's final T-D.
Matt Nagy threw five scoring passes for the Destroyers (6-8).

JEFFERSONVILLE — The Jeffersonville Redevelopment Commission agreed to pay up to $698,000 toward the Falls Landing Park in a 3-2 vote Wednesday, March 13.
The total project comes with a price tag of approximately $1.2 million, said Redevelopment Commissioner Rob Stevens.
While Stevens and fellow commissioner James Lake voted against the motion, he said the city is in a position to show a financial commitment to the project, so officials can begin the application process for a $500,000 grant from the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs, or OCRA, to round out the project's funding.
"We felt the figures that were used were not solid," Stevens said. "I am not against the project, but the due diligence of coming up with those figures didn't feel right to me."
While the commission committed itself to funding up to nearly $700,000, it could be asked to dish out additional funds, if the project exceeds $1.2 million, at a later date.
Lake said he is concerned the funding mechanisms are "not completely thought through" and that the price of the project keeps rising.
"There are no safeguards in place to prevent us from these project overruns," Lake said. "That is a question I asked, and the answer I got, basically, is we have to fund the money, or don't do the project."
Not all commission members share those hesitations, however.
The commission's director, Rob Waiz, said he thinks the project is a great option to alleviate flooding problems in the low-lying areas of downtown Jeffersonville.
"It's a great project for downtown," he said. "We are looking forward to it."
Redevelopment Commission President R. Monty Snelling said he can empathize with Lake and Stevens' concerns, but said he wants to keep the focus on the larger issue of moving forward with the project.
Snelling said he didn't have any problems with the organization of the funding, but said there are other factors that need to be handled carefully, although he said he didn't want to discuss those factors at this time.

Congratulations Patrick Chan! world champion!
The last official word was that the Russian Federation had okay-ed the return, and that's what I'm going off.
Besides, it would be criminal to ban him for more than one season...because that's all drug cheats get and I don't think skating in a couple of shows really rates as worse than a drug cheat, right?

The fall sports season is drawing to a close and, while there are still significant games to be played, it's worth looking back.
The football team has had an improbable season up at Minnesota State. Head coach Todd Hoffner was suspended before the first game but the Mavericks have rallied around interim coach Aaron Keen and put together a perfect 10-0 year.
They still have to beat Upper Iowa on Saturday but there's a good chance they can finish the regular season unbeaten and enter the playoffs as the top seed in the region. The result could be two home playoff games, which has never happened before for MSU in the NCAA D-II football tournament.
The MSU women's soccer team has also had an amazing run, getting ranked No. 1 in the nation at one point and going unbeaten in Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference play. The Mavericks host a central region semifinal game on Sunday.
Mankato West's football team has also had an excellent year, overcoming a big bump along the way to the state tournament.
The Scarlets had to forfeit four games due to the use of an ineligible player but survived that punishment to win the Section 2AAAAA championship. West will play unbeaten Owatonna Friday night at Lakeville North High School in the first round of the state tourney.
Three other area football teams are still playing as well. Blue Earth Area is in the Class AAA tournament, Sibley East is in the Class AA bracket and a surprising St. Clair squad is in the Class A tourney.
St. Clair was forced to cancel its varsity season at the last minute due to lack of numbers in the fall of 2011. The Cyclones wound up playing an abbreviated junior varsity schedule. Now, a year later, they are appearing in the state tournament for the first time in 20 years.
In volleyball, traditional powers Le Sueur-Henderson and Belle Plaine were ranked among the top teams in Class AA all season. Both lived up to that reputation by meeting in the finals of the Section 2AA tournament.
I was at the section finale and watched as Belle Plaine overcame an injury to middle hitter Kirsten Johnson to survive a five-set match. The Tigers play in the state tourney at 5 p.m. tonight at Xcel Energy Center.
In cross country, Waseca again had a banner season in Class A. The Bluejays, who have been legitimate state-meet contenders over the last few years, wound up with a third-place finish in the Class A boys meet and a fourth-place finish in the Class A girls competition.
Mankato Loyola did not have the depth to qualify for state as a team but the Crusaders may have surprised even themselves by qualifying two individual runners to the Class A meet. Junior Wyatt Elmer ran his season-best time at Northfield last Saturday and seventh-grader Kyla Haas burst onto the cross country scene by placing 44th at state.
Waseca sophomore Shane Streich and United South Central senior Emily Mantor were the area's top two runners. Streich finished third and Mantor was fourth.
In girls tennis, perennial southern Minnesota powers Waseca and St. James both finished strong. The Jays wound up third in Class A while St. James was fifth. Saints' senior Aryn Eckstrom had the best individual finish, winning the consolation singles title.
In swimming, the Danielle Nack-led West team finds out Friday night how many swimmers it will advance to the Class A meet. The Scarlets finished eighth out of 42 teams last season and could be poised for another Top-10 finish. Nack is the reigning state champion in both the 50-yard freestyle and the 100-butterfly.
All in all, the fall sports scene has been marked by some first-rate team and individual efforts. It was fun to watch a lot of them first hand.
