Lake Orion, Mich., Community High School left-handed pitcher Brad Schaenzer is one of the top left-handed pitches in the country in the Class of 2014.
The 6-foot-2 Schaenzer has a bunch of schools after him but said the University of Louisville is in his top three and will get a visit next month.
"Louisville is one of my top three right now," he said. "They have a really good pitching coach (Roger Williams) and I've heard a nice campus, which is great for college life. I'm going to visit sometime around January."
Schaenzer said he also has offers from Michigan, Michigan State, Kentucky and West Point. PerfectGame.org ranks Schaenzer as the No. 7 overall prospect in Michigan and the No. 30 left-handed pitcher in the country.
As a sophomore last season, Schaenzer went 9-3 for Lake Orion with 110 strikeouts and just 23 earned runs in 68 innings.
Schaenzer said when his change-up is on that it's his "dominate pitch," while he's been clocked in the high 80s with his fastball and has a tight curveball.
While he's been getting college attention for a while now, Schaenzer said it "feels really good," to see it pick up like it has in recent months.
"I love it," he said.
With the U of L program, Schaenzer said he has been in contact with the entire staff but said Williams is a major draw because of his background with pitchers.
"I had heard about the pitching coach before and then they contacted me," Schaenzer said of U of L. "They targeted me right then."
Schaenzer is also a standout in football and until this season played basketball for Lake Orion. He played wide receiver, linebacker and punter in football.
"I just love to hit people," he said.

Closing Gold & Silver Market Report – 8/22/2011
Gold closed at a new record high today, surging in the afternoon after a fairly volatile day. Platinum is also at a new record high, just slightly higher than its yellow cousin.
There are growing rumblings of a third round of quantitative easing by the Federal Reserve. Analysts are citing Ben Bernanke's comments about the recovery being "considerably slower", and the upcoming meeting of the Fed at Jackson Hole, WY. Jackson Hole was the setting for the announcement of the second round of quantitative easing last year, and the market seems to be pricing in a similar announcement this week. "The market's sending a signal to Bernanke saying, 'We want QE3 and we want it this week, or we're going to hammer you and the market will get absolutely killed,' " said Keith Springer, President of Springer Financial Advisory in Sacramento, Calif.
Oil prices declined as Libyan rebels entered Libya's capital city of Tripoli today, although it may take years before the country can export crude at the same rate it did before the revolution. Lower oil prices can help spur economic activity, as consumers become less concerned with high prices at the pump, and it becomes cheaper for businesses to move goods to the market.
At 4:15 PM (CT) the APMEX precious metal prices were:
- Gold price -$1,902.40 – up $48.20
- Silver price -$43.85 – up $1.31
- Platinum price - $1,909.80 – up $34.90
- Palladium price - $765.50 – up $14.70

But that's exactly what Jacksonville State faces Saturday looking to stay in the OVC chase in its conference home opener.
Southeast Missouri leads all of Division I football — FCS and FBS — with 16 takeaways. The bulk of those are 10 interceptions that share the Division I national lead with FCS Lafayette.
"That's what great football teams do," JSU coach Jack Crowe said. "Takeaways happen when you're very alert, so that tells me they are a very savvy, alert defensive football team.
"If they happen once, you'd say somebody gave it to them, but that consistency means they're doing something to make it happen. They're doing it by just being sound, not by some unique skill set or system. They're just being sound and taking advantage of other people's mistakes."
The Gamecocks (1-2, 0-1 OVC) made enough of those last week.
They had a season-high four turnovers at Eastern Kentucky. The Colonels intercepted Marques Ivory and Coty Blanchard three times. Cornerback Cejay Ceniza got Ivory twice, returning the second one 84 yards for a fourth-quarter touchdown; he also recovered a Washaun Ealey fumble.
"I just have to be on my game and have the ball in the right spot pretty much," Ivory said. "No need to try and force anything, to do anything else; just make sure I'm being consistent in doing what I'm asked to do and everything should go in order after that."
Being in the right spot is what has made the Redhawks (2-2, 1-0) so effective.
Their 16 takeaways already have surpassed their total of a year ago. They have at least two in six consecutive games going back to last year's meeting with the Gamecocks, but SEMO coach Tony Samuel seems the least impressed of anyone by the success.
"Sometimes you get lucky and some of the things you work on come out," he said. "We're getting them, I'll take them."
The Redhawks had 20 picks and 29 takeaways in 2010 (12 games), the last time they won the OVC. That year they were fourth in the FCS in interceptions and fifth in turnover margin, but to Samuel that's ancient history.
"I'm happy I don't have that good a memory; I try not to go back that far," he said. "We can't try to start these comparisons with this kind of conference where every game is so heated. We know every game is going to be tough. If you ask that question again at the end of the season I might be able to answer it better."
Strong safety Tyler Brock leads the Redhawks' pick patrol with three. Free safety Branden Spann and WIL linebacker Darrick Borum have two each.
The Redhawks returned two of their three picks against Tennessee Tech last week for touchdowns — on back-to-back possessions in the first half. The most electrifying was Spann's 100-yard return. He is one of 39 players in FCS history to return a pick 100 yards for a score.
Tech coach Watson Brown called that interception "a killer, an absolute killer," because it sucked the life out of a 16-play drive and took SEMO from a potential 10-point deficit to a four-point lead in a game that eventually needed two overtimes to decide.
"We just try to make sure we're around the football, and we emphasize it," Samuel said. "We still have a lot of work to do. We're still not taking good angles all the time. The key is making sure we're breaking on balls and getting in position. That's all playing good defense is all about."

Saturday marked the official start to the winter sports season as teams turned in their first practices. For many, it was as though there was no layoff at all.
"It feels like yesterday. It doesn't even feel like we've been out of the gym all summer," Reed girls basketball coach Sara Ramirez said. "You get back in there and it doesn't feel like we took any time off. It's way quicker than it seems. It's fun though. This group of girls is awesome. They get after it. It's fun to be at practice and see the team come together and grow."
With a turnout of 43 girls, Ramirez said the Raiders got off to a good start on defending their Division I state championship from last season.
"We had a pretty good turnout of kids so I'm excited," she said. "We have a few returners and younger girls that are coming up to fill the shoes that we lost last year. They look pretty good. They worked really hard. They look focused and ready to get after it, so I'm excited to see how this year plays out."
A team that hopes to derail the Raiders on that mission is rival Spanish Springs. The Cougars, like many teams, used Day 1 to get back into the groove of basketball season.
"Everyone is always really excited on the first day," Spanish Springs girls basketball coach Christine Eckles said. "You're just trying to get some fundamental drills in and kind of getting everybody back with a ball in their hands. Everyone is real eager and ready to work hard. The kids come in out of shape, that's no secret, so a big part of it is getting back in game shape. You're trying to get everyone into playing shape and work the muscle memory as well."
After getting knocked out in the first round of the playoffs last season, the Lady Cougs are excited to start anew this season.
"I'm very excited. I think we have a great group that is returning. We have a lot of seniors and we return nine players, so we're looking forward to it," Eckles said. "It's really a great group of kids for me to coach and we're excited. I enjoy being around the kids on and off the court and they enjoy being around each other, so it's fun to be there every day."
While the girls were having fun, so were the boys as they returned to the hardwood.
"I'm really excited," Sparks boys basketball coach Dan Schreiber said. "We had a really good summer. I'm really encouraged. We have a good chemistry of kids that work well together. They're excited and I am excited and so is my coaching staff. We're pretty happy right now."
Part of the reason Schreiber was so enthused about the upcoming season was because of a turnout of 50 kids. That leaves the Railroaders with a problem they are happy to have.
"The first day was really just trying to sort out the pieces and establish a roster for each level," he said. "The first couple of days are just basic fundamentals. We had a good turnout. We had a lot of kids playing fall sports, so that always helps. The kids aren't coming straight off the couch, so they're in condition and their bodies are kind of in tune with what's going to happen. For those kids that we're playing a fall sport, we've had open gym since September so those kids have a good idea of what is going on and what to expect. It was actually a pretty good first day."
The two boys teams at the Division I level also went through the same procedures on their first day, with both thrilled to be back in the swing of things.
"The most important thing is just getting everyone together," Reed boys basketball coach Dustin Hall said. "It's hard in the offseason to get everyone together in the gym on the same night at the same time. Now you really get to see what you're team is going to look like."
Although Hall got a sneak peek of what components his team will consist of, he did not get the full picture because a handful of players are still playing outside on the gridiron for the Raiders football squad. It is a problem that could leave the Blue and Gold shorthanded for its first league battle.
"With varsity, the toughest part is getting them into basketball shape. Most of them haven't touched a basketball for four or five months and we have just over two weeks until our first league game," Hall said. "Their learning curve is going to be much harder as far as trying to get them all caught up with everyone else that is in the gym while they're still on the football field."
While the success of the RHS football season may initially slow the Raiders basketball squad, the accomplishments for the Spanish Springs gridders may benefit the Cougars basketball team.
"Obviously some kids have some rust, but it's good rust in a way as well for those coming off of football," Spanish Springs boys basketball coach Kyle Penney said. "We have to get some reps in and get the fundamentals down, but we don't necessarily want to get rid of their football mentality. They had a lot of success with football and their confident in what they do. They're aggressive and athletic and they have a good mindset already because of football. We actually probably want to steal from that as far as mindset and their confidence that they play with. We need that on the basketball court.
"I'm real excited. If you're not excited, then you're not coaching at this point. Especially with the turn of the weather, you kind of get the feel that you want to be inside the gym again. I'm absolutely excited to be back at it again. I love the group of kids that we have. There's some things we need to get better at, but I'm excited with the group that we have."

My entry for the 2013 Observer/Jonathan Cape short story competition. At least partially based on real events.
I broke out a Wacom tablet to colour this bad boy digitally, thinking that with only 4 pages to do, it couldn't be too bad. While I still feel a nasty disconnect 'drawing' on a horizontal surface but seeing the result on a vertical screen, the resulting colour job seemed to work out, so perhaps a technique to be revisited.
Didn't win this time round, but hey, third year lucky, 2014, you're mine!

MaineHealth System Recognition
MaineHealth member Pen Bay Medical Center in Rockport was recognized as a 2012 Top Hospital by The Leapfrog Group. These designations are awarded to hospitals that voluntarily meet the highest standards in preventing medical errors, reducing mortality for high-risk procedures and reducing hospital re-admissions. The list is based on the Leapfrog Hospital Survey, which is the only national, public comparison of hospitals on these key issues.
Other MaineHealth member hospitals receiving past recognition include Miles Memorial Hospital cited as one of only three rural hospitals in the U.S.to be designated a Top Rural Hospital for 2011, and, in 2009, two of the three Top Rural Hospitals were MaineHealth members - Stephens Memorial Hospital and Waldo County General Hospital.
MaineHealth takes a leadership role in developing programs to improve chronic illness care in Maine through its clinical integration programs. Clinical integration is an effort to achieve a coordinated system of clinically appropriate and cost-effective care. In the clinical integration model:
Simulation Lab
The Hannaford Center for Safety, Innovation and Simulation at Maine Medical Center is an 18,000-square-foot facility that brings state-of-the-art medical learning to Portland. It includes operating and trauma rooms that are identical to those at Maine Med; a skills lab, where students practice procedures such as stitching sutures or performing colonoscopies; and patient rooms, where students can build their patient communication skills and develop a patient- and family-centered bedside manner. Actors portray patients and are trained to behave or respond in specific ways during "patient exams." Only a handful of hospitals in the nation have similar facilities housed in one comprehensive location.
Maine Medical Center and Tufts University School of Medicine
Maine Medical Center and Tufts University School of Medicine have entered a true medical education partnership, one in which both parties contribute to a unique outcome that neither could achieve on its own. This historic agreement ushers in a new model of medical education.
As an affiliate hospital serving as a clinical site for undergraduate training, Maine Medical Center's past influence on educational outcomes was limited to the quality of clinical training. Today, with the establishment of MMC.TUSM, we can have a significant, and potentially national, impact on the field of medicine.
Each year, 20 of the program's undergraduate medical openings are reserved for Mainers, who also receive scholarship support. Those scholarships reduce what Maine students pay to an amount that's comparable to in-state tuition for a medical school at a public university. That's typically half of the out-of-state burden Maine students would face in another state - a savings of roughly $100,000 over four years.
The medical school's unique curriculum provides students with patient contact beginning in the first year. It also utilizes a network of clinical training sites, including in rural areas, where the physician shortage is greatest.
Electronic Medical Record
An electronic medical record is increasingly recognized as a necessary tool to improve healthcare delivery and outcomes. MaineHealth has embarked on an ambitious initiative to make this technology accessible to all the providers and patients in our communities.
Epic, one of the nation's leading information technology organizations, is MaineHealth's strategic partner in implementing the ambulatory electronic medical record. The Epic system allows healthcare providers to address a variety of information needs, and will help MaineHealth and its member organizations build strong relationships with patients, facilitate an exchange of information across episodes of care, and allow anytime/anywhere data access for physicians.
Member/Affiliate Hospitals and Healthcare Organizations
Affiliates of MaineHealth include:
Maine's rich history and vibrant communities as well as the vast beauty of its mountains, lakes and rocky coastline make Maine a wonderful place to live and work.

Battle of Hoth Soundboard
Watch that crossfire, boys!play now
Hoth is the sixth planet in the remote system of the same name. It is a world of snow and ice, surrounded by numerous moons. Small meteorites that have wandered away from a nearby asteroid field constantly pelt Hoth's icy surface.
Following their victory at the Battle of Yavin, the core group of Rebel Alliance heroes had to abandon their headquarters at Yavin 4. They eventually set up a new outpost, Echo Base, on the ice planet. The temperature extremes required a great deal of effort from Alliance technicians to keep all their vital supplies from freezing.
An Imperial probe droid -- one of thousands dispatched throughout the galaxy -- eventually discovered Hoth. The Rebels were fortunate enough to learn of the droid, and began evacuation procedures immediately. The Empire arrived in the Hoth system, and invaded in a historic confrontation known as the Battle of Hoth.
Evacuating their base on Yavin 4, the Rebels relocated to the ice planet Hoth. They carved Echo Base out of the ice, and protected it with an energy shield. The Rebels at first had difficulty adapting much of their gear to the subzero temperatures of Hoth.
Luke Skywalker helped establish the Rebel base on Hoth, and served as a scout, placing life form markers around the perimeter of Echo Base. Luke was attacked by a wampa ice creature, and had to endure a freezing night in a Hoth blizzard.
During the Battle of Hoth, Imperial forces landed a squadron of five AT-AT walkers beyond the perimeter of the Rebel energy shield and marched over land to knock out the power generators protecting the Rebel base.
Though Han Solo refused to formally join the Rebel Alliance, he nonetheless helped the Rebels establish their base on Hoth. He was constantly tinkering on the Millennium Falcon within the Echo Base hangar, hoping to get his ship into working condition so he could depart the Rebels and settle his debts to the criminal underworld.
Desperately searching for the Rebels, the Empire dispatched thousands of probe droids across the galaxy. One of the probes landed on Hoth and found evidence of a Rebel base, prompting the Imperial invasion of the frozen world.

For 23 seasons, David Delfiacco served as a loyal assistant football coach for his alma mater, Lake Brantley.
The former Patriots quarterback was one of hundreds of area assistants who dutifully toil behind the scenes. He has been anonymous except to all those players who saw him every time they walked into the weight room for year-round workouts.
But Delfiacco got his name in the newspaper last week, for the first time since 1991. He was chosen to be Lake Brantley's interim head coach while George Clayton recovers from a back surgery he expects to undergo this month.

901 Sand Lake Road, Altamonte Springs, Florida 32714, USA
Finally, after taking a sniff at a few head coaching openings but always staying at the place that feels like home, Delfiacco gets to run his own show.
Wrong. Delfiacco says this is not his show.
"I'm just a fill-in," he said Tuesday. "We're all hoping George is going to recover and be able to come back."
Still loyal.
Still devoted to the program, not his aspirations.
Delfiacco doesn't want to win a starting position, because the guy ahead of him got injured.
"George is like a brother to me," Delfiacco said. "He's always told me to get myself ready, so I can be in position to take this program one day. But I don't want to do that until George has gone out the way he wants to."
Delfiacco is fine with pinch-hitting this year and then shifting back to being offensive coordinator for Clayton, who is 134-53 since becoming the head coach in 1996.
Lake Brantley Principal Mike Gaudreau put Delfiacco in charge last Thursday, and the Patriots went out the next night and battled back in the fourth quarter to beat Hagerty 26-22 in their opener. Clayton watched from a sideline chair.
"The kids have been responsive," Delfiacco said. "George was dealing with the possibility of surgery all summer, so we knew this could happen. We were all prepared."
That's what good assistants do.
Saluting milestones
In its Saturday clinic at Seminole High, the Florida Association of Basketball Coaches will recognize coaches who hit "century" milestones for victories last season. That starts with 100 wins and goes up to those who reached No. 200, 300, etc.
FABC members include coaches for boys and girls high-school hoops and all divisions of college ball.
Also recognized will be Great Florida Shootout co-founder Roger Jones and Bob Harvey, who has directed Winter Park's Rotary Tip-Off tournament since 1987.
Extra points
Bishop Moore athletic director Mike Malatesta reports that its artificial-field turf is installed, and the new carpet will be ready to renew its football rivalry with public-school neighbor Edgewater on Sept. 13. . . .
East River's four interception-return touchdowns in its 49-6 rout of Cypress Creek last week is believed to be a state record. Shelton Lewis had two pick-sixes and also scored on a 73-yard reception. . . .
Reigning state champ Apopka (1-1) won last week but slipped to second in the Week 2 AP Class 8A football rankings. The new No. 1 is Bradenton Manatee (1-0), which opened with a 44-14 win over nationally ranked Baltimore Gilman at the University of Maryland. . . .
A season-opening win vs., Poinciana gave fifth-year head coach Marlin Roberts the most wins in Kissimmee Gateway football history with a 17-25 record. He surpassed Doug Peacock, who went 16-16 in the school's first four seasons (1985-88). . . .
Don't blame Winter Park's Sam Richardson for Iowa State's 28-20 loss to Northern Iowa. The sophomore QB was 22-of-32 passing for 242 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions, and ran 21 times for 74 yards. . . .
Lake Highland graduate Max Starks was cut by the San Diego Chargers last week, likely ending a nine-year NFL career that included two Super Bowl titles with the Pittsburgh Steelers. …
Winter Park (2-0), top-ranked in the Sentinel Super Six girls volleyball rankings, plays at No. 6 First Academy (0-0) at 7 Thursday night.

Read Me First
This book teaches you how to record real and software instruments, how to work creatively, and how to turn your recordings into a great-sounding piece of music in GarageBand '11 (part of Apple's iLife '11 suite), also known as GarageBand version 6. This book was written by Jeff Tolbert, edited by Geoff Duncan, and published by TidBITS Publishing Inc.
GarageBand has changed the way Mac users create music. Many of us thought we'd need to spend hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars to make decent recordings. Instead, GarageBand makes recording much more affordable. Sure, it doesn't include some features of higher-end programs, but what it does for the money is simply amazing.
Songwriters can make great-sounding demos to play for their bands or prospective record labels. Proud parents can record their children for friends and relatives. Those of us who never fulfilled our rock-and-roll fantasies in our youth have another chance.
GarageBand's recording process is easy and intuitive. Even if you have o experience in a recording studio, this book will get you working like a pro in no time. Whether you're recording using a MIDI keyboard, an electric guitar, or with a vocalist using a microphone, you don't need a lot of fancy equipment to get great-sounding tracks. I show you bucketloads of tricks you can use to get the best sound possible out of your equipment. Even inexpensive keyboards, microphones, preamps, and guitars will give you wonderful results.
One thing to keep in mind: GarageBand isn't meant to compete with top-of-the-line recording software such as Pro Tools or Logic Pro. The truly demanding user will discover GarageBand's limitations. GarageBand can't control audio or automation as well as its high-end brethren, its effects and instruments aren't as sophisticated, and you can't apply effects to groups of tracks at once, among other things. But for the typical songwriter, home recording artist, or weekend rock-and-roller, GarageBand has more than enough mojo to get your ideas out of your head and into the real world.
I assume that you're somewhat familiar with GarageBand. If you've played with it a little already, you'll probably feel right at home. If not, I suggest my other book,Take Control of Making Music with GarageBand '11, to learn fundamental aspects of the program, as well as tips on arranging songs and using loops.
GarageBand offers a variety of ways to record music. Software Instrument tracks use sounds generated by your computer, using prerecorded samples or models of different instrument types; Real Instrument and Electric Guitar tracks require you to plug an external sound source (such as a microphone or an electric guitar) into your Mac. Electric Guitar tracks also give you access to GarageBand '11's many amp models and stompboxes.
To use this Quick Start section, choose the heading that describes your situation or your interests. Then, follow its suggestions. However, I recommend reading through the entire book to get the most from your GarageBand experience.
I updated this book to cover new features in Apple's latest upgrade to the program, GarageBand '11, as follows:
Note: This book talks about the Mac OS X version of GarageBand '11, not the iPad version. The two applications share some features, but this book does not discuss the iPad version at all.
Sorry, it does not. Although the two programs share some features, this ebook has nothing particular in it about the iPad app.
You can read about old versions of GarageBand as follows:
GarageBand '09 (version 5):
GarageBand '08 (version 4):
GarageBand '06 (version 3):
GarageBand 1 or 2: From either of the above-listed ebooks for GarageBand '06, you can download free copies of still-earlier editions that cover GarageBand 1 and 2. Instructions are on the second page of Take Control of Making Music with GarageBand 3.
There are lots of great ways to read our ebooks on these devices. For more details, please read our latest Device Advice.
Feel free to ask us if you have a question about this title!
How could we not publish such kind words? If you'd like to send us your comments (good or bad, though we hope they're all good), just click the Feedback link on the cover of your copy of the ebook. Be sure to let us know if we can publish your comment. Thanks!
I read Jeff Tolbert's books Take Control of Making Music with Garageband '09 and after that Take Control of Recording with Garageband '09. Being a foreigner myself (Dutch) and a complete beginner in music making and recording, I was surprised to understand every word, description, explanation, technical detail, and humorous remark in both books. Mr. Tolbert must be a born teacher, connecting all the time with the level of thinking of the beginning student in a most positive, even enthusiastic way.
In short, a big compliment!
Kind regards, Rob F.
April 4, 2011 --
Apple has released a minor update to the Mac version of GarageBand '11. Version 6.0.2 reportedly improves overall stability, but most notably it introduces support for opening projects created in the iPad version of GarageBand. When you first open an iPad project after installing this update, GarageBand on your Mac will need to download an additional update that's just shy of 200 MB. Note also that when you open iPad GarageBand projects, you'll immediately be prompted to save them under a new name. That's because once you've modified a project in the desktop edition, it can no longer be opened by GarageBand for iPad.

Yes, it's that time of year again, when negotiating traffic around the shopping malls on MacArthur Road in Whitehall is more difficult than avoiding another hunter during small game season on State Game Lands 205.
Once again, we've decided to make it a little easier for the outdoors-oriented people among us for this holiday shopping season. If you don't have any clue as to what to get the outdoors person on your list, check out the annual Holiday Gift Guide for the Outdoors at the Lehigh Valley Wild blog at http://blogs.mcall.com/outdoors to see some of the newest gear on the market, as well as get ideas that fit into your budget.
Last year, we urged you to do your part for our local outdoors shops, especially the fishing and sports shops that contribute to the weekly Fishing Report and Outdoor Report. We're able to provide good information on fishing spots and hunting activity because these mom-and-pop shops are still in business, and we'd like to see them remain in business in order to help keep you informed of what's going on in our local outdoors scene.
Outdoors usually means doing something together as a family or with friends, and bad weather can keep you indoors. If you long for the days when family gathered in a circle and played board games or built jigsaw puzzles, then Education Outdoors Inc.'s board game "Camp" (www.campboardgame.com) is the ideal gift. Designed to level the playing field for everyone involved, question cards feature four levels of answers based on age, from Tenderfoot to Nature Enthusiast. This is a great equalizer that allows a 4-year-old to compete on an equal footing with a 55-year-old. The game is designed for everyone 4 and older, and some of the questions for the Nature Enthusiast are pretty challenging based on age. A Tenderfoot, for example, would be asked to identify a picture of a bear. The Nature Enthusiast is asked for a bear's scientific name. A full game, with anywhere from two to eight players, takes a maximum 30 minutes to play. It's a perfect fun learning experience for everyone in the family. It retails for $24.99 and sells both online and at Cabela's. Other board games from Education Outdoors include "Hit the Trail" and "Fishing Camp."
If you're looking for gifts that keep on giving, Pennsylvania fishing licenses for 2013, as well as the trout and Lake Erie permits, are available now.
Another fun gift would be signing someone up for the annual eight-week beginner fly-tying class conducted by the Hokendauqua chapter of Trout Unlimited. The class, which includes a manual, all materials plus an in-class use of a limited supply of fly-tying tools, costs $30 for those over 18, but is free for those under 18 and active or disabled veterans. The class runs 9:30-11:30 a.m. on eight consecutive Saturdays from Jan. 5 through Feb. 23, and there is no greater feeling than catching a fish on a fly that you tied yourself, or maybe that your son or daughter will tie for you. Contact Dale Ott at 610-262-7598 to register.
Another cool idea for anglers would be to make use of a subscription to the Mystery Tackle Box (www.mysterytacklebox.com). The monthly subscription introduces both beginners and experts to some of the newest products and techniques in fishing with a variety of products featuring well-known and lesser-known manufacturers. Gift subscriptions come in three-, six- and 12-month increments for as little as $15 per month. A new "tackle box" of goodies arrives each month, based on the subscription.
Many outdoors people are also active on the water, and the Lehigh Valley Kayak and Canoe Club is offering indoor paddling classes at Lafayette College's Ruef Natatorium on Sundays beginning Jan. 13 and running through April 21. The first two sessions are introductory classes and cost $30, but participants must also provide a boat and the required safety equipment. Jerry McAward of Northeast PA Kayak School (610-325-3432 or http://www.kayakschool.com) will rent kayaks for the class. For a complete look at the offerings and requirements, go online to http://www.lehighvalleycanoeclub.org and click on 2013 Classes and Pool Sessions.
The Pennsylvania Game Commission also has a number of items for sale, available either online (www.pgc.state.pa.us) or at the regional offices, including Reading and Dallas (Luzerne County), as well as the main headquarters in Harrisburg. Items range from a 2013 Pennsylvania Wildlife Calendar to commemorative knife and patch sets.
For runners, St. Luke's half marathon is suggesting gifting your favorite training partner with an entry into the 2013 St. Luke's Half Marathon and 5K on Sunday, April 28. To register a friend, email firstname.lastname@example.com or go online to http://stlukeshalfmarathon.com.
While there are plenty of gift items listed in the blog for just about every outdoors pursuit, ski industry manufacturers have not been sending in notices this year. We're not sure if that's due to the lack of true winter weather we've had these past few years, but this is supposed to be a banner year for snow, according to seasonal weather prognostications. Performance wear thermal underwear is always a welcome gift.
Keeping your feet warm is critical to staying comfortable in the outdoors, whether you're skiing or hunting or anything that requires little movement or a lot of start-stop movement. ThermaCELL (www.thermacell.com), the company that brought us propane-powered portable bug repelling, brings us heated feet with the battery-powered remote control-operated Heated Insoles. The Heated Insoles ($129.99) are powered by internal rechargeable batteries. The soles are plugged into a wall charger, and then turned on with a switch at the back of the insole before being placed in your shoes or boots. They don't fire up until you use the remote for either high (110-degree) or medium (100-degree) heat that's just enough to keep your feet comfortable without overheating them. If you're going to move around, press "No Heat" on the remote, and then go about your business, whether it's hunting, ice fishing or watching a football game. When your feet get cold again, press "Medium" or "High" and you'll be good to sit or stand for as long as necessary. The insoles come in five sizes and trim to fit. A single charge lasts up to 5 hours, longer if used intermittently, and the units have a built-in thermostat to turn off once the desired heat is reached.
The Chaheati is another way to keep warm, especially if you like to ice fish. The Chaheati (http://chaheati.com ) is an all-season heated chair that provides warmth for up to six hours on rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. It can heat up to 145 degrees for approximately 105 minutes if you're shivering cold. Not only is it great for fishing and hunting, but for youth sports games or hanging out around the campfire to toast marshamallows or s'mores. It sells for $89.99, but there was special online pricing as of Monday.

GreenTECH Program Funded by Three-Year, $1.08 million grant from the National Science Foundation
NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- MOUSE, a national nonprofit organization that empowers youth to learn, lead and create with technology, in partnership with Solar One, a nonprofit that provides education and resources that create more sustainable urban environments, is pleased to announce the official launch of GreenTECH, a program that provides youth with an opportunity to positively impact the greening of their schools and communities.
GreenTECH, funded by a three-year, $1.08 million grant from the National Science Foundation to Solar One, MOUSE, and the NYU Wallerstein Collaborative, is an initiative to boost youth interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) skills while introducing them to environmental sustainability and green technology.
"MOUSE is about harnessing the spirit and talent of young people to affect change through technology, which for us starts with their learning environment," stated Marc Lesser, MOUSE Education Director. "Ultimately, we view GreenTECH as a way to empower youth to engage with and apply science and technology in ways that position them as activists to address real world problems."
Inspired by Solar One's CleanTech science curriculum, MOUSE launched its own badge-based learning program, which includes three levels of hands-on activities for students and teams, and videos that profile engineers and designers involved in energy careers. MOUSE also developed the GreenTECH Lab, a web app that allows youth to visually-display carbon footprint data in their school and reduce its impact.
"MOUSE has done a really terrific job adapting our CleanTech program to help students better understand energy and renewables," said Chris Collins, Executive Director, Solar One. "GreenTECH is so engaging and fun that I am confident it will inspire the next generation of green engineers, scientists and architects."
To formally recognize the achievements and validate their experience in blending technology with environmental science and leading the greening projects in their school, participants in this program will earn a new MOUSE Squad GreenTECH Badge.
GreenTECH empowers youth to learn how energy is created and the potential of renewable energy. It offers a range of projects, such as building an electric generator, performing an energy audit and creating solar-powered toys. These projects will create multiple opportunities for young people to gain expertise in technology, data collection and analysis, and sustainable solutions as they improve their STEM skills and prepare for higher education and careers in the growing green economy.
"We are posing real-life issues to our students and asking them to research the problems and come back to their school leaders with actionable solutions," said Daniel Rabuzzi, MOUSE Executive Director. "These students are poised to have a real impact not only on their schools, but in their communities and the environment as a whole. That's something they can take with them to college, their first jobs and beyond."
GreenTECH, a combination of programming offered by Solar One and MOUSE, has been piloted in four schools in New York City and the MOUSE GreenTECH Badge is now available to MOUSE sites across the country, where students can identify energy-saving opportunities in their schools, then research and recommend changes to reduce their schools' carbon footprint.
About MOUSE
MOUSE empowers underserved youth to learn, lead and create with technology, preparing them with skills essential for their academic and career success. Our programs give youth the opportunity to support their school community and connect with peers and adults who make, learn and dream with digital media and technology. Founded in 1997 in New York City, MOUSE programs have had a positive and lasting impact on more than 23,000 students nationwide. Learn more about MOUSE at www.mouse.org.
About Solar One
Solar One's mission is to provide education and resources that create more sustainable and resilient urban environments. We change the way people think about energy, sustainability, and resilience by engaging and educating a diverse set of stakeholders and beneficiaries. Our programs help individuals and communities explore new ways of living and working that are more adaptive to a changing world. Founded in 2004 and located in New York City, Solar One developed its CleanTech program with support from the National Science Foundation and The Rockefeller Foundation.

text: So, like everyone else who was patient enough to wait for the iPod touch, I'm contemplating between buying the 399 iPhone(8Gb) or the 399 iPod Touch(16Gb). I am currently an AT&T customer, so I don't have a problem with the SIM card lock(I don't think), but I really do not want to pay the extra 20 dollar/month data plan. So my question is this: With the software unlocks available, like iActivator or IASign, will I be able to use the iPhone as a phone with my existing AT&T plan or no?

Center for Performance Employment Information System (EIS)
The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) is making changes to improve the process for collecting data about teachers, administrators, and other school personnel. Specifically, ISBE has retired the Teacher Service Record (TSR) data collection system. In its place, ISBE will launch the Employment Information System (EIS) on February 1, 2013, for district use in reporting data for teachers, administrators, and other employees.
The new EIS will allow data to be submitted via batch file, as well as entered and edited using online screens. In addition, EIS will allow data to be reported continually (no closed periods during a school year) for both certified and noncertified employees. To lessen the reporting burden on districts, EIS will incorporate the administrator and teacher salary and benefits data that school districts are required to report by October 1 each year, per Sections 10-20.47 and 34-18.38 of the School Code.

Getting a Brazilian Wax
What part of lets-use-hot-wax-to-tear-out-every-little-hair-from-the-hoo-ha sounds like a good idea? Enduring a Brazilian wax is nothing short of cruel and unusual punishment...and yet, plenty of chicks voluntarily put themselves through this torture because they know how much men love the completely bare look.
Killing Ourselves in Spin Class
Exercise and endorphins rock, but honestly, if the world was made up of only women, would the 60-minute, 500-calorie sweat-and-pain fest exist? Dont think so.
Running the Water When We Pee
Well now, this is just embarrassing. But we turn on the faucet because God forbid our guys hear our streams hit the toilet water. It makes absolutely no sense to pretend we dont do all the regular (and gross) things that men do in the bathroom, but we try to cover our tracks anyway.
Wearing 5-Inch Heels
Well admit that we love how sexy we look in sky-high heels. But once weve worn them for a couple of hours, those stilettos betray us big-time. Yeah, we could change into the genius fold-up ballet flats that we stashed in our clutch, but then he might find out our legs dont go on forever.

Bad Food, Worse Service – The food as awful. The service even worse. If you care about how you are treated when you eat out, don't go here. Go to Suppenkuche instead for better food and MUCH better service.
Birthday Bummer – That "tough" East German schtick has just crossed the line of demarcation! Walzwerk screwed up my boyfriend's birthday reservation, blamed me for it, promised to call back to see what they can do, and never did, forcing our party of 8 to make last-minute changes to our birthday plans on a Saturday night!
Here's the story: A week before my boyfriend's birthday, I left a message with Walzwerk to reserve a table of 8 for 7:30 pm on a Saturday. The next day, "Hilda" (Hilga?) of Walzwerk called me back, leaving me a voicemail, to confirm with the same exact details. I saved the voicemail.
At 6:35 pm of the Saturday night of my boyfriend's birthday dinner at Walzwerk, an irate female employee (sounded like Hilda/Hilga), said, "[My name], why aren't you here?" She claimed that we were supposed to be there at 6 pm. Given the voicemail confirmation, the mix-up was clearly on their end, which she refused to acknowledge. Instead, she said, "Well, what do you expect me to do? I can't hold it!" I asked, "What do you expect me to do… it's a birthday party in less than an hour!" Said she would call me back to see what she could do. And, did she? No, of course not!
I get it. Mix-ups happen, but to not admit to your mistakes and shift the blame, with or without the attitude she gave me, is simply insulting, disrespectful and unethical. And, then to not call me back after "seeing what she could do," just doubles the lie. Suppenkuche was more than happy to accommodate us despite of a busy Saturday night for them. My loyal friends and I choose to do business with those who have integrity, which the staff at Walzwerk clearly lack. Hopefully, Walzwerk goes the way of the Berlin Wall!
Whoever thinks the service is bad at this restaurant has obviously never been to Germany or known any Germans. – This is my favorite restaurant in the city. The food is amazing and reminds me of eating in small Mom-and Pop restaurants in south Germany. If you think the waiter is short with you, just remember he's GERMAN. That's what Germans are like. I used to think my German cousins were mean, but then I went to Germany and realized thats just how Germans are. The entire staff has never been anything but delightful to me and I go there whenever possible. The food is AMAZING and AUTHENTIC, just like the staff. Just remember to say bitte and danke!
One of my very favorite restaurants. Ever. – I don't normally write reviews on these sorts of things, but I felt I had to defend the honor of Walzwerk because I adore it, and its owner and employees, so dearly. The last couple of reviews were, in my humble opinion, absolutely untrue.
I happen to live a few doors down from this place and my roommates and myself love it so bad we just simply refer to it as "German" when we want to go over for dinner and beer. The staff is always friendly, always remembers us, and I know every time that the food is going to be AMAZING. I will put it to you this way: I dream about their mashed potatoes. Far from watery and filled with nutmeg, they, along with the bratwurst and sauerkraut and schnitzel and everything else, are simply fabulous.
My grandmother is German and I know what good German food tastes like. People, this is it! And, they have an awesome selection of German beers. Our token favorite has been the darker one, pitcher-style. And we end the meal with Underburgs, little tiny shakeable bottles of an herbal liquor concoction which always prove to be the perfect finish to our Walzwerk experience.
The interior is always clean, based on the hundreds (seriously) of times I've been in there. Moreover, it is simply decorated with German souvenirs of sorts and has a nice warm glow. The dishes are mismatched and all the tables have different salt and pepper and toothpick holders and doilies... you really feel as if you're in someone's German grandmother's house having dinner.
Need I say more?
Really rude service............ – Walzwerk has the rudest waitresses I have ever come across. The service was just plain nasty so we ate and ran as fast as we could.
Probs with Food, Service & Cleanliness – The Citysearch reviews are usually spot on, but not for this restaurant. Hopefully, my review will help. Most importantly, 2 people in my party could not eat their dinner because it was horrible. I thought I could count on them not to mess up the mashed potatoes, but I couldn't even eat those. They were watery and overpowered by nutmeg. Luckily, my son ordered the mushroom schnitzel, which I was able to eat.
The floors and walls were very dirty. They also served us a drink in a glass that had been cracked halfway down the glass. Dangerous! We told the server, and she said it would probably be okay to drink it.
To top it off, the other server (male and German), was dismissive and inattentive. He said something off color the moment we sat down.
Every restaurant and every server is entitled to a bad day, but I don't think this place could ever resurrect itself. It doesn't deserve a single star. It needs to be shut down by the health dept.! Hey, can't you inspection reports online?!
Best German food and experience in the city – Decorated in old East German wares, this place is fun to visit. It's a little like being teleported to someone's house in old East Berlin. Very clever and real Krauts serve you. Of course the beer is fantastic, and for German food, they've taken it to a deliciously new level...thank God. It's the best German food in the city, which is why you usually hear some German spoken by the guests. Even though the location (14th & S. Van Ness) is not the typical for a restaurant, and so it would seem that it should get overlooked, it's always busy, and it's best to try to make a reservation. I love the woman who owns and works the restaurant. Figurately of course, she's very charming. Rarely you might end up being asked to share a table if both parties are waiting at the same time (in true european style) but it's always a choice to do so and I think it's fun. Macht schnell and go!
excellent food! – This is place where we really like to go. It is hard to get in on friday nights, so we go early. The food tastes good all the time. The schnitzels are nicely cooked, the owners are very personable. Not too noisy, friendly atmosphere. Give it a try.
Good food, but please work on service. – Nice, relaxing atmosphere. Good food, but they burnt the edges of my schnitzel. I ate around the charred meat and it was still very good. Waitstaff was friendly but didn't have their act together. Had to ask for the bill two times (once we tracked them down.) Note to Restaurant Owners: When guests are ready to leave, please hurry it up; they've probably got after-dinner plans and need to go. Plus, if you get them out of there in a timely manner, you can free up a table for more customers. And that means more business.
Trans-Europe express! – From the ambience to wines to, most importantly, the food, I'd be hard pressed to find a more awesome restaurant than Walzwerk. Had an office party here and filled out the back room. Walls are delightfully detailed with German goodies including German LP covers. Two lovely German women were very accomodating.
Potato pancakes started us off-- not a smidge remained. I had beef roulade-- beef stuffed with pickles, onions, and bacon. Terrific. Sampled the dishes around me-- the chicken stuffed with apples and bacon caught the attention of my palate. Portions were filling and perfect considering German food is a little heavy to begin with. I had an Austrian red to accompany my meal-- very well received. The desert called for mascarpone with a blueberry tart. MAN ALIVE was it good. Been to Suppenkuche-- like both but would say this is lighter and more hip.
