In SE PA, unless your house is a leaky uninsulated wreck with cracked single-pane windows I'd be shocked if your design day heat load was even 50,000BTUs on a 900' house. Using a crusty old-schooler's "Lessee, OK condition single panes, not so insulated walls, call it 25BTU/foot, 35BTU just in case" crude reckoning you'd come up with a heat load of 32K, and even that's likely to oversized by 2x if the place has some insulation and storm windows or double-panes.
In any sort of reasonable shape I suspect you're looking at 25KBTU/hr tops. That would make even the smallest oil-boilers more than 2x oversized, but there are some tiny cast-iron LP units in the 30-35KBTU range, and some modulating condensing versions that go even lower.
Big oversized high-mass radiators can be pretty good for getting better than 90%+ efficiency out of a modulating-condensing propane burner. (which would usually be side vented with plastic flue.) Your 160KBTU oil boiler in that small a house was probably only getting 55-60% efficiency out of the oil due to oversizing & age so a mod-con would be a reduction in annual heating cost. An 86% efficiency side-vented cast iron LP boiler can do OK if it's RIGHT SIZED for the actual heating load. IIRC you'd have to drop to ~82% efficiency to be able to run it up the flue, but the flue would be oversized for any right-sized boiler and would need a narrowing liner, so there's no incentive to go lower-efficiency/higher-cost.
A smallest best-in-class triple-pass oil boiler would cost about the same to run as an LP mod-con, but that too would require adjustments to the exhaust venting from your 5x oversized pig of a boiler.
It may not work for you (from a floor-plan or aesthetics perspective) but a 2 or 2.5 ton (24-30KBTU) ductless mini-split heat pump would likely cost less up front and cost less to run than any oil or LP burner, and would likely cover 100% of your heat load. A 2-head "multi-split" with one interior unit for each floor would still be cheaper than a mod-con or high-efficiency oil boiler, and at 15cent/kwh electricity would 40% cheaper to run than 90% LP or 87% oil at current prices. (And you'd get high-efficiency air conditioning out of it too.) Where you're off the gas-grid, ductless split systems tend to be the cheapest/best way to go, as long as it meets the design day heating requirements.
Design temps in SE PA are in the low-teens F, which isn't a probably for any mini-split. Most still work at +4F, some are still able to put out 70%+ of rated heat at -13F outdoor temps. Any of them on this list will work at 0F, most are good for colder. Anything with an HSPF of 8.5 or greater will be pretty cheap to run.

News Releases by Email
News Release
Thursday, May 12, 2011
Media contact: Bob Wattendorf, 850-488-0520
For more than a decade, Florida has been recognized as the
Fishing Capital of the World because of its great resources and
responsible fisheries management. Now the World Fishing Network
seeks to identify the Ultimate Fishing Town, USA. Two Florida
communities - Kissimmee and Destin - are in the running, as a
result of the network's national search to nominate and select the
top 20 communities.
Between now and May 31, every Floridian can vote up to four
times a day to ensure that one of these communities becomes the
Ultimate Fishing Town. Go to www.WFNFishingTown.com to begin
voting. WFN will feature the winning community in a half-hour
promotional television show and provide $25,000 for a fishing- or
boating-related project to benefit the local community.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC)
realizes the importance of recreational fishing not only to the
overall quality of life and enjoyment of individual anglers, but
also to the economy and job-creation.
"Helping our partners with Visit Florida to promote tourism to
the world is a win-win situation," said Tom Champeau, director of
the FWC's Division of Freshwater Fisheries Management.
Unlike in many other countries, in the United States, fish and
wildlife are held in public trust for all citizens. Anglers help
pay for conservation of these resources by buying fishing licenses
and paying to ensure quality fishing opportunities for themselves
and future generations. By encouraging visitors to fish in Florida,
we help fund not only conservation but also the amenities that make
fishing more enjoyable and accessible, such as boat ramps and
fishing piers for everyone. The lucky winner of the Ultimate
Fishing Town, USA competition will have a tremendous new
promotional tool and immediate funding to improve local
Destin is often referred to as the World's Luckiest Fishing
Village. The 158 nominations for Destin highlight the quality of
fishing from this Panhandle community, which features some of the
most beautiful sugar-sand beaches anywhere. Among the quotes on the
WFN site is this one, from John Sharpe, who said that, as a small
boy growing up in Tennessee, "my favorite road trip was when my dad
and brother and I would drive all the way down to Destin
Destin also received accolades for having the largest commercial
fishing fleet in Florida and an annual Fishing Rodeo in October
that began in 1948 and attracts more than 30,000 recreational
anglers annually.
Kissimmee received 43 very passionate nominations to make it
into the top 20. Here is one from Allan Oakley: "Great weather, no
air pollution and a fishing season that lasts 12 months a year." He
said it is a fisherman's "heaven on earth."
Kissimmee has hosted innumerable national bass fishing
tournaments, setting records along the way, and it remains not only
a fishing destination for tourists but also a home-town
recreational favorite.
"This serene lake has been the home of people learning to fish"
for many generations, said Leslie Andree in her nomination. "The
lakes in Kissimmee have brought many memories to residents and
tourists alike. Fishing is life for many people, from young
children, to retired adults, and they all enjoy the life of the
All anglers who enjoy the opportunity to get outdoors and
connect with nature at the end of a fishing line are invited to
take a moment to vote for one of these Florida fishing communities.
Perhaps soon, Florida will not only be the Fishing Capital of the
World, but home to the Ultimate Fishing Town, USA.

MyFWC.com/Fishing. To learn more about the Fishing Capital of the
World, click on Visit Florida's Fishing Capital logo at the bottom

Agree with Pelo going difficult, but any sort of rank filter is morally wrong.
Morally wrong? I don't think so.
I agree with both of these ideas. Limit the new players' map choices more. Pelo War is a difficult map for a new person. No one should be playing a map like that right off the bat.
Rank Restrictions is also a good idea. I think it would benefit everyone. The lower ranks would be able to play themselves more and have a better experience because they wouldn't get completely creamed and the higher ranked players would hypothetically get a better game. I would rarely use the Rank Filter myself unless I was restricting it to 1400/1600 and above. Other than that, I would not use it often, but I think it's a very good idea. It makes everyone on a more equal playing field.
The one problem that I see with the Rank Restriction is that if new players end up only in games with other new players then they might get frustrated because of deadbeating/waiting for turns/etc. I wouldn't want brand new players to only be able to play with brand new players. But a little restriction is good I think.

Fox 29's Kerry Barrett welcomed a baby boy to her family this past weekend. She gave birth to John "Jay" Barrett IV and he looks utterly adorable. Jay is a healthy boy weighing in at 6 lbs 15oz.
This news is especially exciting for Kerry after she struggled last with miscarriages for over a year. She told her personal story on FOX 29 last November to let other women know they are not alone.
"Life for me doesn't get any better than this," Kerry Barrett said. "If I could freeze these moments, I don't think I'd ever leave."
"We were married for eight years before we had Avery. If I had any idea how much I would love being a mother, I would have started earlier because now I would have like six," Barrett said.
"Avery is our nearly-three-year-old daughter, our most exciting adventure, our biggest teacher and our greatest accomplishment. My husband John was in Iraq when I first found out I was pregnant. I had to text him the news." Barrett explained.
"We were trying, but had only been trying for two or three months," John Barrett said. "It happened rather quickly, so it was awesome, total excitement."
Now the couple barely remembers what life was like before her.
"It's one of those things where you look forward to getting up each morning and you look forward to coming home each night," John said.
"Sometimes when I go to bed at night, my heart is pounding because I can't wait to get up in the morning and see her," Kerry said.
They knew their family didn't feel complete without another. So when Avery was about a year and a half old, they started to try again. After a few months later Kerry was pregnant.
"I took a picture of the positive pregnancy test and sent it to my sister, my best friend, and my dad and my family," Kerry said.
However, this time things did not go as smoothly.
"We were actually on our way back to look at a house; we were house hunting. I started having, I started to bleed. That had never happened with Avery," Kerry explained. "I didn't really know what it was. I was still fairly early at that point. I was five or six weeks. We were at the ER for most of the night. You're holding out hope; maybe it's something else."
But as the night progressed they knew it was not something else. The baby they were so happy about was no longer with them. As difficult as that was, they also knew that statistically, that miscarriage is something that happens often and they would probably have better luck next time. So as soon as she recovered, she tried again, and again. A few months later she was pregnant.
They were positive this time would be different. Except it was not.
"I started to miscarry right before the 10 o'clock show, 9:30 and no one at work knew I was pregnant," Kerry said.
So she sat at the desk and anchored the 10 o'clock news. At home that night she lost a second pregnancy.
"There were some dark moments for me, and I think after the second is where we started not to tell people we were pregnant," Kerry said.
"You have the first and then the second and now we are in phase where maybe we aren't able to have kids," John said.
Having a miscarriage was one of the most isolating experiences in Kerry's life. Mothers are advised to not tell anyone they are pregnant until after the first trimester. What they do not tell you is that if you miscarry and no one knows, you go through it alone.
"I couldn't get the answers that I wanted about why it kept happening. Sometimes there's not any answers," Kerry explained.
It was at that point that she started seeing Doctor Scott Edwards, a fertility specialist at Pennsylvania Hospital.
"The most common cause of miscarriage is just a spontaneous chromosomal abnormality in the embryo. It can come from the sperm or the egg that just brought an abnormality to the early pregnancy," Dr. Edwards said.
They were not certain at that point of what was happening. All of Kerry's tests and physicals had come back normal. It was difficult for her to wrap her head around. John and Kerry are very healthy. Their family has no history of miscarriage or genetic. There was absolutely nothing they could do.
"I think that even though we say, 'it just happened, it's a chromosomal problem,' I think most women will still look back and think, 'it must have been something, it must have been that glass of champagne I had early on,' but really it's almost never something the mother did," explained Dr. Edwards.
Doctor Edwards started Kerry on a drug that worked to hyper-stimulate her ovaries. Instead of one follicle a month, she was now producing four in the hopes of having more success in getting a healthy egg. They were successful the very first month they tried it and this time she was pregnant with twins.
"Here is the one with two gestational sacs," Dr. Edwards showed.
Again, no one knew when she went in for her first ultrasound.
"He said to me, well, they look a little small, let's have you come back next week," Kerry recalled.
"There was some ambiguity where the ultrasound didn't look quite right, but we still had some hope, which unfortunately dragged on for several weeks," Dr. Edwards explained.
"I thought, 'it's probably just that they're a little smaller because they're twins, there's two in there and maybe I haven't been eating enough, I've been really stressed, and so this week I'm gonna eat,' and I stuffed my face with every healthy thing I could get on my plate. I mean I stuffed myself thinking it was my fault that the babies weren't growing. And then when we went back the next week, they hadn't grown anymore and the heartbeats had stopped," Kerry said.
Since she had to have a D&C procedure this time to remove the fetuses, she was able to test the fetal tissue. The babies had a chromosomal abnormality called Triosomy 18. In which there are three copies of chromosome 18. There should only be two, one from mom and one from dad. Finally she had some answers, but she was not sure that it helped.
"You can control as many variables as is possible by treating your body right, getting the right amount of sleep, but in terms of ever having control of a pregnancy, you don't. And I know that now," Kerry said.
She had knowledge, but she couldn't do anything with it. Although she tried, she spent far too much money on things like supplements and acupuncture that have little scientific evidence to back them up. She also spent hours on the Internet reading the stories that didn't give her any hope.
"I'm online until God knows what time of the morning and if you look for it you can find real information about statistics of people who have babies after 3 or 4 or even 5 miscarriages, but when you're in that place, that's not the information you're focusing on," Kerry said.
At that point she began to consider the possibility of giving up. The emotional roller coaster, the exhaustion, disappointment and depression was quickly becoming too much.
"I just um... I didn't expect it... and one after another... I wanted to forget it when it happened, but it's still very raw. I don't know if that will ever quite go away," explained Kerry.
All of it began to take a toll on them. Some of the worst fights they ever had came on the heels of a miscarriage. When some would feel like they should be coming together, some couples do not make it and it's not hard to understand why.
"It's really difficult. I can't stand to watch her hurting and a lot of the time, I don't know what to do to support her other than being here," said John.
For the father, it can be difficult to really understand what the wife is going through. For them, it may not seem real until they are holding a baby in their arms, but for the mother it's real from day one. Still, they tried again and again. She quickly got pregnant, a singleton this time, but something inside her knew from the start that something was wrong. And it was: this pregnancy progressed just like the last one.
"Things started out all right and then slowly they would stop growing and then the heartbeat would slow down and then the heartbeat would eventually stop. And so every time I go in now, I'm terrified that we won't see the heartbeat or that the growth has stopped," Kerry said. "So, I think that innocence is gone, and I still feel very much out of control, I think. Because I know what can happen now, and I didn't know before. And I know there's nothing I can do to stop it."
At about eight weeks, she had another miscarriage. She used to love going to the doctor when she was pregnant with Avery, every appointment was a new celebration, but this had taken an experience that should have been joyful and turned it into something she dreaded.
"I'm terrified at every doctor's appointment. I'm terrified to put the ultrasound on my belly because I don't really know what we're going to see," Barrett stated.
That will never change, but John and Kerry have grown together and, as a couple, realized that they are not alone. They have learned how to answer well-meaning, but misguided advice and questions. It's one of the reasons they decided not to give up.
"With two miscarriages, three miscarriages, if you asked them what the chances are that they will have another miscarriage, it's 90, 100 percent, it's just never going to happen. But really, it isn't. But, often there's a 50. 60. 70 percent chance that things are going to be OK," explained Dr. Edwards.
Ultimately, Avery is the reason.
"As you just heard little Avery tell you, I do now have a baby in my belly," Kerry said.
Kerry admits was still a little scary to say out loud, but they can finally breath easy now.
Kerry thanks everyone for all of the support and prayers throughout her pregnancy.
Flames are tearing through a South Jersey forest right now, and this wildfire is only expected to grow.

Excellent. I reduced the recipe in size so I only made one layer with no frosting so I could test it. I live at a high altitude (4600 ft). I wouldn't make this cake without adjusting for altitude as it is so tender that it would cave in if it weren't adjusted. I removed a 1/4 of the butter and 1/4 of the sugar. It turned out great. Other than that, it is very tasty. It will be my "go to" chocolate cake recipe.
I made cupcakes, first the cake boss (all without frosting) and then sandy's. I had my daughters and husband taste both, sandy's won! I didn't even have to put frosting on them. I like to make cakes for people on the side, now sandy's recipe will be my chocolate cake recipe in my cake book
Made this for my husband for his birthday!! He loves chocolate and this cake made his birthday. I found it was a very easy recipe and does not require a whole lot of work considering its from scratch.
This cake was delicious. It was so beautiful the frosting was sweet and creamy. It is a great recipe.
I have made this cake several times! It works great for cupcakes too. I even won a couple of work Bake-off competitions. This one is definitely a keeper.

Thinning hair on crown and bad hair cut, pushed me to do something I'd been considering for a longtime, the buying decision was difficult with so many options and quality features to consider, in the end, it isn't a high dollar buy yet gave me priceless confidence, and style, that my customers say has taken years off me, and while I made up my mind to admit to wearing a wig, only a handful know, some even once told couldn't believe how Great and natural it looks. I ordered an average, SF1026 , and now have 2 more on the way.

I understand there are many women with small heads that don't need much hair to make them happy. But there are others of us that need just the opposite. This wig was a dissapointment after 5 minutes of wearing it. If I hadn't alread removed the tags I would have returned it.I need wigs that are large enough to fit my head comfortably and with enough hair to cover my ears and nape area. This hair stood away from my neck immediately. It has no weight to it to hold it down once it hits the shoulder area. There is not enough hair to cover up the fact that it's a wig. This sure was not for me.

This wig was perfect right out of the box. I'm a cancer patient with no hair right now, and it was exactly the look I wanted. Most people think it's my own hair, and it is similar to the way I wore it before cancer. I've had several wigs, but this is the first one that didn't need alterations. I'm very happy with this wig.
I would buy this product again.

Love the wigs from Paul Young! Ive tried several and all are wonderful. The very best part of purchasing from them is the caring customer service when you call them. They are curtious and helpful even with questions on the colors. I would recommend Paula Young to friends.......and have done that already!

I use it every day to cover my thinning hair. It matches my own colored hair and I can allow my own hair to show. That gives the whole wig a natural look.
It is a very natural wig.

Hmmm. Pizza.
Last-Minute Chef: Beer-Infused Super Bowl Pizzas
Juice up your Super Bowl soiree with a secret pizza ingredient: Beer
Beer and pizza offer one of those symbiotic culinary unions so deeply wedded as to make them inseparable, almost. Sure, there's the unconventional "pair it with a Pinot Noir!" plea from the oenophiles among us, and a root beer isn't a bad NA play. But really, if you're taking down a pie, chances are you're washing it down with some suds. The only way to marry these two Super Bowl staples more closely together? Make the pizza out of beer. Mindblowing, I know. But we've had the pie–in fact, we've made it from scratch–and it ain't half bad.
"Beer is just as good as water at hydrating the flour in dough," explained Mark Bello of Manhattan's Pizza a Casa (literally, Pizza at Home) during a recent class. "Making pizza at home is way easier than you think it might be." Bello should know–he's churned out more than 10,000 pizzas at his digs near Chinatown–but even for the newcomers in the class, learning the craft was as easy as following a simple dough recipe.
The secret ingredient, in our case: Samuel Adams Boston Lager. The only difference between the brews we consumed and those we added to the dough? We heated up the dough beer in a water bath to help activate the yeast. Bello's Super Bowl spin on two pies, one for San Fran fans, the other for Baltimore acolytes, are perfect centerpieces for any DIY or pot-luck feast. What's more, his recipes feature clever tips to keep the meat tender (we've had our share of sub-par clam pizzas, and few measure up to the mighty Pepe's in New Haven, the crucible of the white pie).
Check out the San Francisco-style pie here (featuring pepperoni and spicy pimento pesto).
And check out the Baltimore pie here (featuring crab meat, chives, and mozz).
Happy eating, all.

Klein had grown up down the street from campus, followed her father and sister in attending CSUN, and she was concerned about the implications of inviting Finkelstein, whose lectures she assumed would include rants against the legitimacy of the State of Israel.
"The campus is very apathetic, and in the years I've been at CSUN, this is the first anti-Israel event that has happened," said Klein, a senior who plans to move to Israel after she graduates. "I wanted to make sure I handled it in the right way, because I want this to be the first and last instance of anti-Semitic activity at our university."
First she contacted Hillel, with which Students for Israel is affiliated, and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). Then she called a group that since it began seven years ago in a Los Angeles living room has become an international leader in pro-Israel advocacy at colleges and universities.
StandWithUs national director Roz Rothstein jumped into action. She phoned Harry Hellenbrand, the provost and vice president who had invited Finkelstein, and explained the complaints her organization had. Hellenbrand wasn't surprised, and he asked StandWithUs to recommend speakers with a contrary perspective for a future lecture, a gesture he also made in a meeting with Klein. A list of 15 names was drawn up, and the drama was defused.
"That is exactly what we would want to have happen," said Hellenbrand, who said Finkelstein had been requested by faculty members who wanted to hear how his controversial scholarship had cost him tenure at DePaul University. "In a sense, our lives are made easier if we never have any controversial speakers at all. But that is not going to really happen. The ideal we have, but what rarely does happen, is that people come in and protest and write letters and ask us to support other speakers."
StandWithUs was born from death, given life by the grisly discovery of two Israeli teens, Kobi Mandel and Yosef Ishran, in a cave outside of the West Bank settlement of Tekoa on May 9, 2001.
"A rock the size of a computer rested on Kobi's smashed skull," Time magazine reported. "Both bodies were covered with stones. Blood smeared the walls, and the dirt floor was muddy with it. When the searchers rolled the rocks away, they didn't see faces but unrecognizable pulp."
Two of the more than 1,000 Israeli deaths from the Second Intifada, then still in its infancy, the murders spurred a small group of Jews half a world away. A week and a half later, Roz and Jerry Rothstein convened at their home the first meeting of the Israel Emergency Alliance. The group of about 50 rabbis and Jewish leaders, across partisan and denominational lines, would soon take the name StandWithUs, centered around the Web site www.standwithus.com, and within a year would establish itself as a trailblazing grass-roots organization, one of a few redefining what it means to be pro-Israel.
The group's ambitions started small: arranging a meeting with editors at the Los Angeles Times to discuss what they felt was the paper's pro-Palestinian bias in covering the conflict. They then turned to education, focusing on how to inform college students and journalists about other views of Israel than what was being shown in American media and identifying anti-Israel rhetoric on college campuses.
"My mother, who was a survivor, always told me that the Holocaust, as she watched it grow, began in the schools and the colleges. The hatred took hold in the youth," Roz Rothstein said in an interview last week. "We have a motto at this organization that education is the road to peace."
StandWithUs has grown from a small group of volunteers meeting at the Rothsteins' home to an international organization with offices in Los Angeles, New York and three other U.S. locales as well as Europe and Israel. With a staff of about 40, a budget of $3 million and a number of printed materials -- including a 43-page glossy guide, "Israel 101," and flyers comparing Walt and Mearsheimer's book "The Israel Lobby" with "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" -- StandWithUs acts, as Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz said, as an "intellectual Delta Force."
"StandWithUs may have started as a campus organization -- and they are our go-to group -- but their educational efforts have gone out to pre-university schools, to the community itself," said Gilad Millo, spokesman for the Israeli consulate in Los Angeles sponsor of the organization's annual conference, which this year included the Jerusalem Post's Palestinian affairs reporter, Khaled Abu Toameh, and Palestinian Media Watch's Itamar Marcus. "Their PR sense is brilliant."
StandWithUs, of course, has its critics, too, from those who think it is fighting the wrong battle -- hustling a pro-Israel information campaign instead of focusing on Jewish education -- to those who disagree with the organization's definition of "pro-Israel."
"It becomes a zero-sum game: If Israel did good, the other side must have done bad," said David N. Myers, a UCLA professor of Jewish history and director of its Center for Jewish Studies. "I would like to rethink the way we imagine pro-Israel to say it should also mean pro-Palestinian. The interests of Israelis and Palestinians meet at the point of freedom from occupation and self-determination for the Palestinians.... I find troubling the practice of defending every Israeli action. The fact of the matter is there is no country in the world whose every action is defensible. Robust practicing democracies undertake actions that merit scrutiny, Israel too. And that is not part of the mission of StandWithUs. What concerns me is the very polarized way they see the world, which is represented in the very name StandWithUs, which implies that anyone else is against us."
Most of the organization's resources are dedicated to providing materials and strategic support to college students, particularly at embattled campuses such as UC Irvine. But StandWithUs has received broad attention for two other efforts -- joining Dershowitz and others in opposing Finkelstein's bid for tenure at DePaul University and waging an ad war against a pro-Palestinian organization that placed posters in Washington's subways showing Israeli tanks.

Profiling JRuby with NetBeans
A case study and tutorial on using the NetBeans profiler to profile Ruby code running on the JVM via JRuby. Walks through the steps of configuring NetBeans, launching JRuby with profiling settings, connecting NetBeans to JRuby, and analyzing the results.
Comparing Ruby exceptions to additional stat() test
A common idiom in Ruby code (FileUtils, ActiveSupport, Hike) when dealing with a file or directory that may or may not exist is to go ahead and call a method that expects the file to exist (such as
open), and catch the exception raised for nonexistent files. This is generally a poor choice performance-wise on JRuby, but is also not necessarily ideal on MRI.
ActiveRecord connection pool fairness
ActiveRecord maintains a pool of database connections that may be used by multiple threads to perform database work. If many threads are contending for a smaller number of connections, the behavior of the connection pool becomes important.
Asynchronous responses in Rack
Rack is an interface for Ruby components accepting and responding to HTTP requests synchronously. Though there is not an official Rack spec for asynchronous responses, Rack servers such as Rainbows! and Thin provide an asynchronous interface for responses that may happen at an unknown time in the future, such as in a web chat room.

Alabama struggled in the first have against a Virginia Tech defense that came determined to do two things --- stop running back T.J. Yeldon and cover the deep ball to Amari Cooper.
Tech was lining up safeties 20 yards and more off the line of scrimmage, usually to Cooper's side. The idea was to make quarterback AJ McCarron move the ball with underneath passes, and it worked to hold Alabama to 97 yards total offense in the first half. Meanwhile, Yeldon had just 22 net rushing yards at halftime.
McCarron finally found the deep ball in the third quarter, but not to Cooper or even Kenny Bell. It was Christion Jones, the slot receiver. Yeldon finished with 75 yards rushing.
Alabama's defense endeavors not to give up explosive plays but did on Trey Edmunds' 77-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. The Tide nearly gave up more, but Logan Thomas overshot a few, and others were dropped.
After a deep-ball overthrow to Demitri Knowles, Alabama showed more deep-safety strategy, with Vinny Sunseri moving around and committing after the snap.
While Tech helped Alabama by missing big-play opportunities, Alabama also helped itself with Sunseri's interception return for a touchdown in the second quarter. It came after Tech had closed to within 14-7 and seemed to have momentum.
Special teams
Key to the game for Alabama. Christion Jones' 72 yard punt return and 94-yard kickoff return, both for touchdowns, helped Alabama overcome 97 yards in total offense in the first half to lead 28-10 at halftime.
Jones also lost six yards on a punt return, trying too hard to make a play, but he more than earned forgiveness on this night. He also learned his lesson, making a fair catch on the next punt.
It's also worth noting that Virginia Tech's average starting field position off a kickoff or punt was its 23-yard line. Six possessions started inside the 20.
Alabama punted or kicked off a combined 15 times.
It didn't look like Alabama offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier brought much in the way of intermediate pass plays into this game, and Alabama needed to do more of that to take advantage of a Tech defense that sent safeties deep and otherwise crowded the line of scrimmage.
Defensively, Kirby Smart adjusted with more deep-safety coverage after Tech's near-misses on a couple of deep balls.
The coach of the game, though, has to be special-teams coordinator Bobby Williams. Against a Frank Beamer-coached team, Alabama got the best of it with two special-teams touchdowns and kept Tech in bad field position most of the night.
The 35-10 score says dominance, but this game wasn't dominance like Alabama showed in its last non-conference game, the 42-14 rout of Notre Dame in last season's BCS final.
Against Virginia Tech, Alabama's offense managed two touchdowns against a defense determined to take away the long pass and Yeldon's runs. The offensive line, beset by the loss of three NFL draftees, clearly needs work, as Tech got in the backfield to cause negative plays.
Defensively, Alabama gave up an explosive play and could have given up more, but for a handful of drops by Tech receivers and Logan Thomas overthrows.
Still, Alabama is a team with playmakers all around, as Jones showed with his two return touchdowns and another score on a deep pass from McCarron. That's a start.
What's next?
Top-ranked Alabama gets an open date to prepare for the game of the season, its SEC West showdown with No. 7 Texas A&M in College Station, Texas, on Sept. 14.
With Heisman Trophy quarterback Johnny Manziel suspended for the first half in relation to the NCAA's probe into autograph signings, Texas A&M still pummeled Rice 52-31. Manziel threw for 94 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for 19 yards, all in the second half.
More eye-popping, though, was that A&M's defense gave up 509 total yards, 306 on the ground.

Colleagues of Chris Hunsinger say his abilities and, most of all, his pleasant demeanor will be greatly missed in Hardin County government
Hunsinger, longtime planning director for Hardin County, died Thursday at University Hospital in Louisville after a lengthy illness. Hunsinger, 57, was planning director for 32 years and is remembered as an affable man who was well-suited to his job.
Hardin County Judge-Executive Harry Berry said Hunsinger was integral to the operations of the county.
"Obviously it's a blow to county government," Berry said.

Program Summary
In 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act amended the Trade Act of 1974 to authorize the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training (TAACCCT) Grant Program. On March 30, 2010, President Barack Obama signed the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, which included $2 billion over four years to fund the TAACCCT program.
TAACCCT provides community colleges and other eligible institutions of higher education with funds to expand and improve their ability to deliver education and career training programs that can be completed in two years or less, are suited for workers who are eligible for training under the TAA for Workers program, and prepare program participants for employment in high-wage, high-skill occupations. Through these multi-year grants, the Department of Labor is helping to ensure that our nation's institutions of higher education are helping adults succeed in acquiring the skills, degrees, and credentials needed for high-wage, high-skill employment while also meeting the needs of employers for skilled workers. The Department is implementing the TAACCCT program in partnership with the Department of Education.
TAACCCT Round 3 Announced!
Secretary of Labor Thomas E. Perez today announced $474.5 million in grants to community colleges and universities around the country for the development and expansion of innovative training programs in partnership with local employers. The grants are part of the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training grant program, a multiyear, nearly $2 billion initiative to expand targeted training programs for unemployed workers, especially those impacted by foreign trade.
Read the news release here.
TAACCCT Round 3 Online Panel Discussion!
In its third year, the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College Training grant program is setting the standard for collaborative grant making in the federal government. To highlight important focus areas for the third round of funding announced in April 2013, representatives from the departments of Labor and Education, along with current grantees, joined together for a virtual panel discussion. If you missed this event, you can view the archived video, transcript and slides here:
- 04-19-2013: Obama administration will award $474.5 million in grants to community colleges to develop local employer partnerships and expand job training. Grants are the third installment of a $2 billion, four-year initiative. Read the press release here.

The appartment was in a very good location, clean, spacious, and everything worked fine. It was perfect for our group. The pick-up of the keys was rather inconvenient, having to travel all the way across the city only to find out the office was closed (whereas I sent an email regarding our arrival time), which resulted in a hassle to pay the final 50%. In terms of kitchen utensils, a little bit more wouldn't hurt (e.g., there were only two pans).
