The second Matthew in a row has won Arundel. This year it was Matthew Cocke (5 dan Epsom) who was the best of the 26 players, taking the first place previously won by Matthew Macfadyen. Winning all three games were Michael Webster (1 kyu London) and Adan Mordcovich (5 kyu Wanstead). All those on two wins received prizes including runner up Francis Roads (3 dan Wanstead).
The bar was at 2d. Handicap and no-komi games are in red.

Wins on boards 2 and 4 for the UK ensured the honours were split evenly between the UK and Austria.
Captain Will Brooks finally broke his duck, and Jon Diamond did his duty as president, while misfortune befell Matthew Macfadyen and Andrew Simons.
The season is nearing its end with only 2 more matches to be played (vs. Slovenia and Spain).

A week has passed since the Tohoku-Pacific Ocean Earthquake and Tsunami struck, which has been a disaster of unprecedented proportions for Japan.
The BGA is not organising a specific fund for people to donate to the relief operations. However, we are pleased to direct you to the one organised by the Japanese Ambassador.
Some include card Go sets, for instance "The Book of Go" and "Learn to Play Go Volume 1", and some were made for issue in Go sets, such as the Carlton Go Pack which contained Matthew Macfadyen's book.
David Ward (3 dan) won his local tournament, the Cambridge Trigantius, without having to share the title as he did in 2000. 36 players took part at St Columba's Church in the centre of the city. Other players winning all three games were Michael Charles (1kyu St Albans), Brook Roberts (4kyu Cambridge) and Jan Poslusny (6kyu Prague).

A new labor policy at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center has created confusion and concern among exhibition contractors and organizers, but officials at the group that oversees the convention business in the California city, Team San Jose, says the change will ultimately save customers money and improve their experience.
The new policy, which took effect August 1, brings Teamsters labor in-house as an exclusive service of the convention center through an agreement with Teamsters Local 287, based in San Jose. Previously, labor was hired and supervised by the general service contractor. Under Team San Jose, union labor, hoteliers, convention center and CVB officials, and leaders from the arts and business communities, work together to streamline the experience for meeting customers. Fenton says they would not have been able to strike this in-house labor agreement with Local 287 without labor's involvement with Team San Jose.
The concern is that the major service contractors working in the convention center—GES, Freeman, and Champion—have collective bargaining agreements with another union, Teamsters Local 85, based in San Francisco, explains Steven Hacker, president and chief executive officer of the International Association of Exhibitions and Events, Dallas. Their contracts with Local 85 require that labor be split 50/50 between Local 85 and Local 287. But now, general contractors must use the in-house labor provided by Local 287. The change stems from Team San Jose's desire to use local labor exclusively rather than split the work with San Francisco labor.
Contractors say the new deal places them in a precarious situation. "It creates an irreconcilable conflict, forcing the contractors to either violate their CBA with Local 85, or not work in the building and violate contracts they have in place with event organizers," says Hacker. If the contractors do work in the building and, in effect, violate the terms of their CBA with Local 85, they are concerned that they will be picketed or face labor grievances, says Hacker.
Daniel Fenton, CEO of Team San Jose, says the concerns are unwarranted because the new policy takes precedence over existing labor agreements. There wouldn't be picketing or labor actions, he says, because the local Teamsters Joint Council, which oversees the Teamsters in the region, supports the change. "The Joint Council would have to sanction the picket, and they wouldn't do that, nor would the South Bay Labor Council, the umbrella labor body within San Jose," says Fenton. Cindy Chavez, executive officer of the South Bay Labor Council and co-chair of the board for Team San Jose, concurs, saying the new agreement doesn't violate any other labor contracts.
But Hacker says it is an issue. "In the absence of a formal agreement, who in the world could take that kind of verbal representation as, 'Don't worry, we've got you covered,'—that's absurd," says Hacker.
Cost Confusion The new labor agreement is designed to increase efficiencies and save money for customers, says Fenton. However, the cost of labor is another source of confusion for customers.
Initially, the new rates published in the policy manual called for an increase of more than 50 percent in the base straight-time labor rate. After seeing the rates, Hacker decried the changes in an op-ed piece sent to several news outlets. "San Jose's new labor scheme is substantially more expensive than the policy it now replaces. Even during robust economic times, it is hard to imagine how these kinds of abrupt and totally unexpected cost escalations could be tolerated."
But Fenton says that the published rates were inaccurate. "When we first started rolling out the program, there were some rates that were quoted that came out of Team San Jose that were erroneous," he adds. "We understand the confusion. We are clarifying that with everyone as we speak."
The actual base straight-time rate is $58 per hour, which is essentially the same as it was before. Initially, this was to be the rate for the first 90 days only, but after discussions with clients, Team San Jose decided to keep the $58 per hour rate indefinitely. The rate is about $1 per hour less than decorators are paying under other Bay area contracts, according to Team San Jose officials.
The new policy includes other work rules that have enabled the first few groups that have held events since the policy was implemented to realize significant cost savings, says Fenton. Among the changes, minimum hours are reduced from eight hours to four hours under the new policy, so groups don't have to pay for hours they don't need. Another is a provision that allows for flexible start times. "Whenever the client wants to start, that's when our team starts," says Fenton. So the client pays straight-time rates for an eight-hour day, whenever it starts, even if it's 11 a.m. Previously, straight time was 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., so hours outside of that were charged overtime. "It makes San Jose more flexible and, quite frankly, makes us more competitive in terms of what we can offer clients."
However, Hacker believes that cost is a concern as well as work rules that affect liability and workers compensation. These issues, along with the jurisdictional concerns, make the new policy ill-advised and inadequate, he says.
Officials from IAEE, the International Center for Exhibitor and Event Marketing, the Exhibition Services & Contractors Association, and the Society of Independent Show Organizers met on August 27 with senior executives at Team San Jose asking them to suspend the new policy so they could discuss these concerns and resolve them. Team San Jose offered some concessions, like offering the $58 per hour base rate indefinitely, but refused to suspend the policy.
He will bring the matter before the IAEE board when it meets next week and decide what action to take, if any, to address these concerns. "We'll have a number of options that we'll be examining," says Hacker, who refused to elaborate before meeting with his board.

Led by Stage 1 Ventures, with Runa Capital, Soft Bank Capital and Atlas Venture Participating
BOSTON, Feb. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Flashnotes.com, the student-to-student study materials marketplace, today announced that it raised a $3.6 million Series A round of funding led by Stage 1 Ventures, with Runa Capital, Soft Bank Capital and Atlas Venture participating in the round. Flashnotes.com will use the funds for rapid market expansion within the higher education technology market, as it accelerates the adoption of its peer-learning platform at colleges and universities across the country.

The UN secretary general has told Kosovo leaders to preserve the country's stability and solve all problems through dialogue.
At a meeting held in New York, Ban Ki-moon has told Kosovo's President Atifete Jahjaga and Prime Minister Hashim Thaci that the European Union's role in the Balkans region is essential, and its guidance should be followed.
"It is important for Kosovo to maintain stability... all issues should be solved by peaceful means. The entire region should look ahead to Euro-Atlantic integrations," Ki-moon is quoted as saying in the press release issued after the meeting by the Kosovo side.
Kosovo declared independence from Serbia on February 17, 2008. Since then 89 states, including 22 EU member states and the US, have recognized it.
Serbia and Kosovo started EU-mediated talks in Brussels in March 2011, three years after Kosovo declared independence, which Serbia refuses to recognise.
President Atifete Jahjaga accused Serbia of jeopardizing Kosovo's security and territorial integrity by continuing to finance illegal Serb structures in the northern part of Kosovo.
She said that such security structures keep frightening the ordinary Kosovo Serbs, with whom the Albanian-led government in Pristina wants to have a dialogue.
"We are determined to continue the dialogue with the Serb citizens in this part of the country to find ways to include them in the institutional life," she is quoted saying in the press release.
Northern Kosovo, which borders with Serbia and is ethnically predominantly Serbian, does not recognise Kosovo's independence or the government in Pristina.
Serbia's Prime Minister Ivica Dacic said on Saturday that he thinks that the partition is the only real possible solution for solving Kosovo's status issue.
But Kosovo leaders rejected such idea a long time ago, saying that the change of borders in the Balkans is a dangerous game.
Serbia's President Tomislav Nikolic will also have a meeting on Monday with UN's chief Ban Ki-moon, and the Kosovo talks issue is part of the agenda.
The government agreed to extend the mandate of the EU mission and its task force which investigates allegations of wartime organ-harvesting, illegal detentions, killings and torture.
The Serbian government and the political party of detained Kosovo Serb leader Oliver Ivanovic, who is accused of war crimes, have launched a petition demanding his release.
Six years after Kosovo's independence constitution came into force, authorities in Pristina are still struggling to implement it in the Serb-run north of the country.
Officials have suggested the possibility of a new parliamentary resolution on Kosovo after Serbia's new government is formed, but will not change their stance on non-recognition.
Kosovo Police have launched an investigation into an attack on three ethnic Serbian police officers in the north of the country.
The authorities in Pristina accused Belgrade of slowing the pace on implementing the EU-mediated deal to normalize relations and failing to fulfil commitments on judicial changes.
As Pristina and Belgrade prepare to resume dialogue on normalizing relations next week, the opposition has criticized the government's handling of the talks and the results so far.
An image posted on Twitter lauding NATO's air war against Serbia has angered the Belgrade authorities, who have called it offensive.
Hashim Thaci, the Prime Minister of Kosovo, has strongly rejected claims that the secession of Crimea from Ukraine follows a pattern set by Kosovo's own secession from Serbia.
Rail service to Mitrovica from Kraljevo is an illegal incursion, Kosovo officials say.
Brussels agreement has left Serbs in north Kosovo uncertain about what the future holds - and whether they should remain at all.

Male Models like Luke Worrall and Cole Mohr -Can We Ever Relate To Them?
"Rake-thin, 12 year-old-looking, alien-eyed lady-boys"- this is how one of my friends describes the male models of today. While I don't quite agree with his overly-harsh and rather sweeping statement, I have to admit that there are times where the men plastered over magazines and high-fashion ad campaigns just seem completely out-of-touch.

You wouldn't plan a road trip without first researching the tools you'll need. Whether you're going old school with an atlas or new school with a GPS, it is necessary to bring along resources that will make your journey easier and more successful. When creating a strategic roadmap for your digital initiatives, you mustn't forget the tools you will need to help you succeed. And there are many of them from which you can choose. Here are a few examples of tools that will help you manage your various digital initiatives and make your life much easier:
Paid search: Google AdWords, MSN AdCenter
Site-side analytics: Google Analytics, Adobe Marketing Suite (formerly Omniture), Marin + Kenshoo
CRM/New Business: Salesforce, PipelineDeals, Netsuite, Oracle
Social: Hootsuite, Sprout, TweetDeck
This is nowhere near an exhaustive list of tools used for these buckets, but all of these tools do similar things. Essentially, they organize all of your campaigns and content so that it is easily accessible to your team and your clients (if necessary). So what do all of these tools help you do? Though they are all different in look and feel, they essentially help you do three main things:
1. Aggregate + organize data
The aforementioned tools are meant to house lots and lots of data so it is easier to measure and act upon. Paid search and social can teach you about messaging that works well, site-side analytics can help you understand user behavior and experience, whereas CRM tools can help you optimize your communication strategy with potential and current customers.
2. Measure success
Success measurement is the most important thing that digital tools help you do. Oftentimes it takes a little ingenuity (with tracking code and setting up reports), but tracking your customers' online actions is imperative for measuring your digital initiatives' success. Paid search is simpler to see a return on investment. After all, you are given the precise number of clicks and conversions per user or investment.
With social and CRM, it may be slightly more difficult. Rely on your business goals to dictate what your most important Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are and work to create a system that will measure the increase or decrease in these completed KPIs. If your business's goal is to generate leads, and you implement an email marketing campaign, your main KPI is probably a user performing a "Request More Info" form. However, it can be beneficial to measure things like email open rate and transfers to website to assess whether or not your email messaging and images are effectively communicating with the user. In short, to measure success, you must first define your terms of a successful campaign. As a more concrete example with email marketing, let's say that 5% of those who fill out a lead form result in a new client acquisition with $X average profit. Therefore, you can monetize how valuable a completed lead form from email marketing is. Sometimes it's just as efficient to work backwards.
3. Optimize campaigns + messaging
Once you are able to measure success, you are able to optimize your campaigns. It doesn't matter if your digital initiative is an email communication, a paid search ad or an organic social update. All of these messages can be optimized toward a better return on investment. Historical data as well as current trends can help digital analysts predict when and where messaging will be most effective. If you are able to make predictions about marketing trends, this can aid in predicting business trends as well, which will help improve efficiencies in your business. Optimization is ongoing for those that want to constantly improve their return, but like success measurement, you must be optimizing toward an end goal.
With these tools and goals in mind, you will be well-prepared when planning your road to digital success. Next week, we'll be talking about what to pack to prepare for speed bumps in your journey, so stay tuned!

JOBE Wheelhouse has been here before. Another pre-season. Another surgery. More interruption.
Wheelhouse will make a much-anticipated return from a foot injury in an intra-club trial at Ray Watt Oval.
It has been an all-too-common occurrence for the luckless Jets captain.
But far from frustrated, Wheelhouse is excited to get back into the swing of things.
''It has been an interrupted pre-season, but in some ways that is a good thing for me,'' Wheelhouse said.
''I had time to have a good break and I'm feeling really good. It has been 10 weeks now and everything has pretty much gone to plan.''
Wheelhouse has been in full training a fortnight after surgery in May to remove a bursa from his left foot.
The wholehearted midfielder played the final third of last season with the aid of pain-killing injections and had to cut a hole in the outside of his left boot to lessen the pressure on the problem area.
''Puma will be happy that I won't be running around with a hole in my boot,'' he said.
''Where the scar is on the foot is quite sensitive. It is on the sole of my foot and every time my foot touches the ground I feel it. It will take time to heal properly but otherwise it is 100 per cent.''
Wheelhouse trained yesterday in an advanced role in midfield but is unsure exactly where he fits into Gary van Egmond's plans.
''We haven't spoken too much about the position he wants me to play,'' Wheelhouse said.
''It will be in midfield somewhere. If I have to play the left, the right, the middle ... wherever the team needs me I'm happy to play.''
Michael Bridges (hamstring strain) sat out training yesterday but should only be sidelined for a week. The internal hit-out will be a final chance for Scottish trialist Mark Burchill to press claims for a contract.
The Jets' Young Socceroos quartet – Jack Duncan, Josh Brillante, Mitch Cooper and Connor Chapman – were back on deck after a gruelling two-week tour of Vietnam.
Much of yesterday's session was focused on the front third.
''There is no doubt that is where we need the work,'' Wheelhouse said.

Holding to the highest of standards, Subaru builds some of the best mechanically designed, engineered, and manufactured vehicles in the world.
To make those vehicles last, we ask owners to partner with us by following a regular schedule for maintenance and performing minor checks between maintenance services.
Through such a partnership, Subaru can help make your vehicle last longer and reduce lifetime maintenance costs, your carbon footprint, and the use of fossil-based oils. In addition, it will free up some of your valuable time.
Here's How to Check Your Engine's Oil Level
Improvements in oil and engine technologies allow vehicles to travel further between recommended oil changes. Regular checks help you to discover and prevent your engine oil from falling to dangerously low levels, which could cause significant engine damage.
Step by Step
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and stop the engine. If you check the oil level just after stopping the engine, wait a few minutes for the oil to drain back into the oil pan before checking the level.
2. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, and insert it again.
3. Be sure the dipstick is correctly inserted until it stops.
4. Pull out the dipstick again.
5. Check the oil levels on both sides of the dipstick. The engine oil level must be judged by the lowest of the two levels. If the oil level is below the low-level mark, add oil so that the full level is reached.

TCU's Patterson fighting negative perception as Big 12 era begins
Story Highlights
TCU began its first spring as a Big 12 member amid drug-related scandal
Four Frogs were arrested in February on charges of marijuana distribution
Gary Patterson has addressed the storm head on, is ready for new era
FORT WORTH, Texas -- After TCU won the Rose Bowl in January 2011, coach Gary Patterson hit his assistants with an apt analogy. "The Rose Bowl," Patterson said, "was like an 85-degree day in Kansas -- in January." Why January?
"If it gets that warm in January in Kansas," Patterson said, "I'll promise you one of the worst storms is coming."
The sunny weather stayed for a while. It lasted through a "rebuilding" season in which the Horned Frogs went 10-2, won the Mountain West and secured an invitation to the Big 12. But, as Patterson predicted, the storm eventually came.
It arrived Feb. 15 with a deluge of served warrants. Four Horned Frogs were arrested on charges of marijuana distribution as part of a larger operation that netted 18 total arrests. The players had sold pot to undercover cops. Cornerback Devin Johnson was formally charged this week. The other three, linebacker Tanner Brock, defensive tackle D.J. Yendrey and offensive tackle Ty Horn, have yet to be formally charged.
None of the four are on the football team anymore. Officially speaking, they have been "separated" from the university, meaning they are barred from even setting foot on campus. They've already done enough damage. In an arrest affidavit, a Fort Worth officer reported that Brock had revealed that Patterson had ordered a surprise team drug test that day -- Feb. 1, better known as National Signing Day -- that would result in "about 60 people being screwed." Johnson told officers that 82 players had failed. That affidavit went viral within hours, and everyone took the word of bud(ding) entrepreneurs in the middle of drug deals that TCU's football team was awash with drug use.
When the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported later that a TCU source revealed only five players failed that particular drug test, the story was widely regarded as spin from an embarrassed program. What's the truth? Without seeing the test results, we won't know. A look at the track record of the players during Patterson's tenure suggests the newspaper report probably is closer to the truth than Brock's estimate. When SI investigated whether major college football programs performed background checks on recruits, TCU was one of the few that did. A search of the archives of local media sources reveals that before the four were arrested last month, five other TCU football players had been arrested since Patterson became head coach in December 2000. That's nine in a little more than 11 years.
Compare that to Urban Meyer's six-year tenure at Florida, which included more than 30 player arrests. Compare it to Mark Richt at Georgia, who has had both his starting cornerbacks arrested (one for marijuana possession, one for domestic violence) in the past two months and who has had several dozen players arrested during his 10-year tenure in Athens. Some of the accounting can be chalked up to the difference in municipalities -- programs in small college towns tend to accumulate more ticky-tack arrests because police have less to worry about than their big-city counterparts -- but in terms of serious crimes, Patterson's players have stayed clean at a more-than-acceptable rate.
That's why Patterson didn't hide after the arrests. That's why he didn't shoot down questions about them. Patterson knows recruits and their parents will be watching and reading, and he wants them to know the arrests were an anomaly.
"This is a problem everywhere," Patterson said. "The people that know us -- the high school coaches -- know us, and they know how we do things. If they truly believe we are the only people that have this problem, maybe they don't want to come here because we will do something about it."
Drug use is an issue on every campus. In an NCAA survey of 20,474 athletes from the 2009 school year, 22.6 percent admitted to having used marijuana. Some perspective: In 1985, 27 percent of a group of 2,000 NCAA athletes surveyed admitted to having used marijuana. It wouldn't be shocking if a decent-sized chunk of any college football team tested positive if given a surprise test today. It's a bit surprising that four players appeared to be in business selling pot -- and the police documents indicate the possibility of more arrests on the TCU campus -- but the idea of at least a player or two slinging weed shouldn't shock anyone who has spent significant time around large groups of 18- to 22-year-old males.
Still, the arrests sucker-punched Patterson. Even a few weeks later, the pain seemed fresh. "I live 30 seconds from here," he said. "No one watches all this stuff more than I watch it. It just goes to show you, people, when their own kids fool them... Parents, I mean. I have 130 [kids]. I don't have four. ... Those are still four of my kids. Those are still kids I care about. I wish I would have made a difference. I wish it hadn't happened. I wish I would have known so I could have stopped it."
Though they make plenty of money to win football games, most coaches at the highest level of college football still take the in loco parentis part of their job seriously. Patterson is one of them.
"That's what we promised," he said. "We promised when a kid goes to college, we're going to be an extension of the parents. Sometimes, we are the parents if they don't have any parents. How are we going to grow them up? We give them management skills. We give them work ethic. There's a degree hopefully that they can get so they can go on and do something else with their lives."
McCARTNEY: Burning questions facing Big 12 teams this spring
The arrests have taken the spotlight off a spring practice that should excite everyone in purple. The Horned Frogs return three excellent backs and a budding star in quarterback Casey Pachall. The defense remains fast, aggressive and well-coached. If any program is ready for the jump from a mid-major league to a BCS AQ league, it's TCU. The Horned Frogs were already out-recruiting some Big 12 programs without the benefit of the AQ designation. Now, they are a major-conference program located in one of the nation's largest metro areas. That should terrify the other members of the Big 12. Sure, TCU now must beat Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas, but the coaches at those schools, to a man, would be quick to point out one thing: Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas have to beat TCU.
"The riff before was, 'Well they are not in the Big 12.' Well now we are," Patterson said. "So now they ask can they win in the Big 12? That's the next thing we've got to prove. So it allows us to keep that chip on our shoulder."
The updated anti-Frog recruiting spiel will almost certainly mention the drug bust, so Patterson will have to fight the negativity by trotting out the facts. He can't change the fact that four of his players sold drugs to undercover cops, but he can shine a light on the 100-plus who didn't. He can point to TCU's federal graduation rate -- how many players receive degrees within six years of enrollment -- which at 75 percent is the highest in the Big 12 and 11 percentage points ahead of second-place Texas Tech.
Patterson accepts that negativity will come, and he doesn't believe TCU's jump to the Big 12 increased attention on the arrests. "I didn't think that was a fair shake," he said. "Not for the four kids that screwed up, but for the 90 percent of the kids that are trying to do it right. ... It blows up just because it's college athletics. TCU, we've been on a string where everything we did just happened to turn out right. Then when you finally have something go wrong, everybody wants to jump on it. But that's OK."
After Patterson rattled off a list of the things his program has done right, he warned against placing him on any pedestal. The arrests simply reinforced his belief that all programs and all coaches are susceptible. The storm can come at any time and strike anywhere. What matters is how prepared a coach is for bad weather and how quickly he can clean up the mess.

Buyers who want "green" cars carefully read the fine print pertaining to emissions and gas mileage, choosing between battery-powered electrics (EVs) and gas-electric hybrids. Buyers who worry about job creation in the U.S. pay attention to where the car was built.
Thus, the Top 10 Green Cars of 2013 from Kelley Blue Book isn't entirely relevant for those who also want to "buy American." Four of the entries on Kelley's list were built abroad, including the Lincoln MKZ (Mexico), Honda Fit EV (Japan), VW Jetta Hybrid (Mexico), Toyota Prius Plug-In (Japan).
Any of the remaining six models on Kelley's list constitute a two-fer for the ecologically correct shopper who favors the home team.
From slick, touch-enabled remote controls to robots that clean your floors for you, these cool gadgets are the most droolworthy devices out there.

Mon. - Wed., Sun. 11am - 2am;Thu. - Sat. 11am - 4am
Better Pizza than their Big Slice Neighbor – Much better pizza than their neighbor lazy moon. Not near as good of an atmosphere though. Fun place to go, the service isn't anything spectacular but it is open late. Which is ideal for those after midnight cravings.
Great pizza! 'Nuff said!! – I don't generally give reviews but I saw some of the bad reviews and felt I needed to comment.
I've been eating their pizza and calzones for over 8 years. I've eaten pizza at lots of other places (that have come and gone) around town over the years and this place is as good, if not better than any of those. Ample toppings, good crust and even when they're really busy, great service and food. This isn't a 5 star restaurant; this is a pizzeria, NYC style.
Bad customer service – This was our pizza night, rented a movie everything was ready for a great family night. It was time to call for pizza, from all possible alternative we chose to call this place for the first time, what a mistake. After waiting more than an hour and calling several times unsuccessfully, we finally got to talk with an employee who couldn't explain or apologize for what happened, not understanding the importance for a family of a "perfect pizza night" while we were talking on the phone trying to get to talk to the manager the pizza finally arrived (cold) the movie was almost finished and I couldn't talk to the manger, the employee didn't give me his full name and I ended with a lousy experience.
Avoid this restaurant! – I called Broadway to order tonight and they hve "blacklisted" me for no apparent reason. I have been a loyal customer for the past 7 years! They said I could come pick up the food; but they would not deliver. I told the phone answerer I will not come and pick up food from them after being such a loyal customer for so long.
There is no reason for them to treat their customers this way.
This place is way over priced and they're food is really too greasy and they're sub meat is way under-portioned.
F- for Broadway
Great Pizza – I have been going to this Pizza resturant for 3 yrs. now and it is by far the best Pizzain the area..... Also the Calzones and Strombole is awsome...and they have $1.00 drafts.. You can't go wrong.
100% NY PIZZA – I moved here from NY and was hard pressed to find NY style pizza. Broadway has the best pizza in winetr park/orlando and their baked ziti is excellent!

Western Oregon University is in the midst of two major construction projects to build a new live-learn residence hall and construct a health and wellness center by renovating the Old P.E. building with additional space for a recreation center. Both of these buildings are being designed and constructed to meet stringent requirements in sustainability. Explore these pages to learn more about both projects and keep checking back for news updates as the construction progresses.
live-learn residence hall health and wellness center
Construction on the Ackerman Hall began in the summer of 2009, and will be completed in time for students to move in for fall term in 2010. Construction on the health and wellness center broke ground in October 2009 and will be completed during winter term of 2011.

Since 2003, Mote Marine Laboratory has been a host site for the National Science Foundation's Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program. The Mote REU Program offers paid research training experiences in estuarine science to 10 undergraduate students during a 10-week period between late May and early August. REU participants are paired with Mote scientists and conduct mentored research projects related to their advisor's expertise. Students gain experience in science communication by presenting the results of their project in a manuscript-style research paper and orally at a laboratory-wide research symposium. Participants attend research seminars and workshops on career skills in science. Students may also have the opportunity to present their research findings at professional conferences.
The 2014 REU application is now closed.

Adapted from Tessa Kiros | Apples for Jam | Andrews McMeel, 2007 | Makes 1 1/2 cups
Here's the thing about making jam from scratch—it's lovely in principle, although not often likely in reality. It's not the act of preserving that's hard. It's the notion of putting up preserves that can give us pause. The sterilizing of all those jars. The worrying about the seal taking—or not. The potential of scrubbing jam splatters off the ceiling.
And so rather than go without, some of us cheat. We make a small batch of whatever flavor we fancy at that moment, then flirt with danger, keeping it close at hand in the fridge in an unsealed, unsterilized, unthinkably handy little container. The batch lasts just long enough—a few weeks, perhaps—before we grow tired of any particular flavor.
The beauty of this is that you don't need a special recipe. Any reliable preserves can be easily adapted, as we've done here with the strawberry jam recipe from cookbook author Tessa Kiros. Just simmer and ladle. Recipes that make a modest amount are preferrable. As Kiros notes, "It's incredibly easy to make. It's not necessary to make a supply for the whole year and the whole neighborhood—although wouldn't that be nice?" Um, in theory, perhaps.
Some of those who'd stumbled upon this surreptitious summer act dubbed it the very telling yet rather clunky "refrigerator jam." That changed with the publication about a decade ago of a charming cookbook whose title now eludes me. It bestowed the consummate title on our little trick: Instant Gratification Jam. (Editor's Note: If anyone has a book they suspect to be the same—a small, slender, squarish book with, I think, a blue cover—we'd be grateful if you left a comment, although please note that many other, lesser books have since stolen the title for their own purposes.) —Renee Schettler Rossi
Beyond Toast Note: This is great dolloped onto pancakes or homemade white or brown bread and can also be used to sandwich together a simple sponge cake. I love it spooned into tiny sweet tart shells with another miniature dollop of whipped cream on the top. If you like you can make this with some bits of strawberry in, but you can easily tweak it to make it all smooth.—Tessa Kiros
convert Ingredients
3 1/2 cups strawberries (try to find the small ones, which have more flavor than the large ones), rinsed and hulled
1 cup superfine sugar
Juice of 1 lemon
Special Equipment: 4 ounce jelly jars (optional) or other small resealable containers
1. Quarter the strawberries or, if they are large, cut them up into smaller chunks. Place them in a non-aluminum bowl, add the sugar and lemon juice, and toss them around to distribute everything evenly. Cover and let them rest overnight in the fridge to draw out the berries' juices.
2. The next day, drain off all the liquid from the strawberries into a large heavy-bottomed jam pan or wide saucepan. Add half of the strawberries and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer gently until the juices are thickened somewhat, about 15 minutes. Let rest for at least 10 minutes.
3. Transfer the strawberry mixture in the pan to the blender and purée until smooth or pulse if you prefer your jam quite chunky. Return the mixture to the pan, add the rest of the strawberries, and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for 10 to 15 minutes more. To test if the jam is ready, drop a heaping teaspoonful onto a plate and slightly tilt the plate. The jam should not run off, but cling and slowly glide down. If the jam isn't ready, put it back on the heat for a while. It should be a lovely red hue and look quite sticky.
4. Spoon the jam into small jars and refrigerate or spoon into resealable plastic containers and freeze. You need to keep it in the fridge and use it up fairly quickly.
Raspberry Jam: You can make raspberry jam like this, too. Just pass it through a fine sieve to get rid of the seeds.
Canning Tip: If you wish instead to actually can the jam, don't let us deter you. Be sure to sterilize your jars before you have a panful of hot jam ready to put up.
1. Preheat the oven to 250°F (121°C).
2. It is always best to use several small jars, rather than one or two big ones. Wash the jars and lids in hot soapy water, or in the dishwasher, and rinse well in hot water. Then place the jars and the lids on a baking sheet for at least 20 minutes, or until you are ready to use them. Don't use a dish towel to dry them. They should dry thoroughly in the oven.
3. When the jam is ready, spoon it into the warm sterilized jars and close the lids tightly. Turn the jars upside down, cover with a dish towel, and let stand until completely cool. This creates a vacuum that can be seen with the lid. Turn upright and store in a cool dark place.

Until, that is, the "Gilligan's Island" theme song is cued and all is suddenly not lost.
While the bard may have not introduced the Professor and Mary Ann to the island for one of his last plays, "The Tempest (kinda)" is about to change all that.
Opening today, "The Tempest (kinda)" held at the Gold Hill Theater outside of Virginia City, Nev., is a modern interpretation of the play full of sorcery, island nymphs and deception. Other surprises include references to "Moby Dick," "Jaws," "Rocky" and even some Van Halen music. Director and actor Cameron Crain said that's just the beginning of it.
"Before starting this, I thought about how to hold the audience's attention and keep it," Crain said, explaining that his interpreted script is his original work. "I thought about how the story of 'The Tempest' could relate to now. And we just went really silly with it."
Comprised of actors from Gold Hill Theatre Company and Nevada Shakespeare Company, "The Tempest (kinda)" is a local production, put on by Nevada actors, many of whom Crain knows well, allowing for parts to be personalized.
"We've created it out of our little company," Crain said, who co-directs with his wife, Michelle. "So I started tailoring those characters for each actor to bring out who they are, within Shakespeare."
Having worked on this production since September of last year, Crain said he is quite familiar with other Shakespeare plays, having directed and starred in "Romeo and Juliet," "Comedy of Errors" and "Macbeth" to name a few.
But as far as original Shakespeare language goes, Crain considers his interpretations to be quite liberal, keeping about "60 percent of the original Shakespearian language and 40 percent" of Crain's work.
"I love to debate this with purists," Crain said, explaining that there is animosity among those who want to retain the original Shakespeare language those who do not. "We as a culture tend to idolize him but the truth is he was writing and borrowing from anything he could find."
Crain said he tried to replicate Shakespeare's borrowing by referencing modern-day culture.
"Our philosophy is that they (the audience) have a good time," Crain said, "and they'll understand the story better and appreciate Shakespeare's language better as long as they have a good time and laugh."
"The Tempest (kinda)" will run Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays until Aug. 9.
As the theater is an outdoor venue, audience members are advised to bring warm layers and a pillow for the wooden seats.
Tickets are available to purchase at the door for $25 for general admission and $30 for a reserved table. For Thursday showings, tickets are $15 for general admission and $20 for a reserved table. For more information, visit the Gold Hill Hotel Web site at www.goldhillhotel.net.
Reservations are recommended and can be made by calling the Gold Hill Hotel at (775) 847-0111.

On Mondays through January we'll be posting exclusive excerpts from Glory Days: Springsteen's Greatest Albums, which analyzes eight of Springsteen's most groundbreaking albums and then argues which one should be considered "the greatest." This week, a selection from the chapter on 'Nebraska' that seems sadly fitting for this difficult week:
A bitter, stark contrast – by design – to what Reagan would call his "morning in America," it's Springsteen's most adult effort, taking the relentlessness of Darkness on the Edge of Town and stripping it of whatever strands of hope may have come through that album's defiant lyrics and potent accompaniment. Its characters are, for the most part, burdened by a crushing resignation that defies any ability to see past it to a possibly brighter future. There's no cutting the pain from their hearts – for Nebraska's denizens, the prognosis is terminal.
That's clear from the first burst of echoing harmonica that starts off the album-opening title track, a deceptively tender first-person folk hymn based on the 1958 Starkweather murders. The image of a young girl "standing on her front lawn, just a-twirling her baton" seems practically idyllic, and then the song shifts almost immediately to the fateful car ride on which the narrator kills 10 innocent people – basically "everything in [his] path." But it's the song-ending declaration as to why he did it that winds up binding Nebraska together from start to finish: "I guess there's just a meanness in this world."
In some of the songs, that meanness comes in the form of circumstances that drive average people to take extraordinary measures that inevitably turn their situations even more dire. In "Atlantic City," where about the only hope the debt-laden narrator can muster is that "maybe everything that dies someday comes back," it's painfully clear that the "little favor" he agrees to do is going to end badly, possibly disastrously. He seems to know it, but forges on anyway as if all other choices have simply evaporated, just as he does with the woman for whom his love's grown cold.
Meanwhile, Ralph from "Johnny 99," out of work and in danger of losing his house, kills a convenience store clerk in a botched robbery and winds up begging the judge for execution. Springsteen starts the song with a howling falsetto yell, and his breathless vocal timbre as he unspools the story is chilling, halfway between tears and panic.
As effective as "Johnny 99" is, though, it's not half as haunting as "State Trooper," a short masterpiece of moody desperation that, in its whispered delivery and relentlessly plucked guitar, perfectly captures the dread of a man on the run – ostensibly from the law but clearly just as much from himself. The only answer he has for the thing that's "been botherin' me my whole life" is a wordless, high-pitched wail that describes the plight of most of the tormented characters making their way through Nebraska's desolate landscape.
You can download Glory Days: Springsteen's Greatest Albums at Amazon or Amazon UK. And if you don't have a Kindle, don't worry: You can download free Kindle software here.
