Birmingham—At 1:30 p.m. today Commissioner Mike Slive will kick off the SEC's 2009 Football Media Days with his annual message on the state of the conference. This will be Slive's eighth football media days since taking over as commissioner in 2002 and he will say that the state of the conference is very, very good.
He probably won't say this but I will. The Southeastern Conference has been in existence since 1933 and there were a lot of great moments in the first 75 years. But competitively, academically, and financially the SEC has never been better than it is right now. And here's the rub if you compete against the SEC: For a lot of different reasons this league is about to get even stronger.
Let us review:
**–In the 2008-2009 academic year the SEC won five national championships. It finished as the national runner-up in five other sports. So in 10 of the 20 sports that the league sponsors, the SEC finished first or second nationally.
**–Under Slive the SEC has won four national championships in football (2003, 2006, 2007, 2008) with a string of three straight. Florida is a unanimous preseason No. 1 and is favored to repeat as national champions. If the Gators win it, that will give the SEC five national championships in Slive's eight years as commissioner. And that doesn't count Auburn, which was 13-0 in 2004. Since Slive became commissioner the SEC has won a total of 43 national championships.
**–The upcoming academic year will mark the beginning of two unprecedented 15-year contracts with CBS and ESPN that will pump $2.8 billion (with a "B") into the 12 member institutions and provide unprecedented television exposure to the non-revenue sports and academics. Part of that exposure, we learned this week, is an SEC Network on ESPN that will reach into Big Ten, Big 12, and Big East country. The national interest in SEC football is that high.
**– While other conferences have had to shorten their football media days or eliminate them completely due to finances, the SEC expects over 900 media members (up from last year's record of 836) to attend this three-day session.
But Slive, a former judge, told me that he will offer a few words of caution today. Yes, things are going very well for the Southeastern Conference.
"We should always remember that the only league that can impede the SEC's continued ability to succeed," said Slive, "is the SEC."
What Slive means is that with all of this success, both competitively and financially, comes the obligation by the leaders of the SEC to practice even more due diligence. Slive's goal when he took over was to have no teams on any kind of NCAA probation in five years. That goal wasn't completely realized but there is no question that things are better on the enforcement front.
But with the competitive bar being raised every year and with multi-million dollar salaries at stake, there will be temptations to cut corners. Slive does not want that to happen on his watch.
"This has been one of the great periods in the history of the league," Slive said. "I take great satisfaction in the success that we've had and the progress we've made in some other matters off the field. They go hand in hand.
"If we can keep vigilant and compassionate we can continue to enjoy what I have referred to as the golden age of our conference."
In other words: If you're the SEC right now, the only thing that can screw this up is you.
Slive had to have a heart to heart with his football coaches at the SEC Spring meetings in Destin. Actually, it was a lot more forceful than that. He had gotten fed up with the back biting among some of the coaches in the press and basically read them the riot act. The message was received and understood by the coaches. The basketball coaches got the same message and, with the arrival of John Calipari at Kentucky, the price of poker in that sport has also been raised considerably.
The last few years have been quite busy for Slive. First he was the coordinator of the BCS, which is one of the least popular jobs in college athletics. He just finished his chairmanship of the NCAA Men's Basketball committee which may be the toughest, most time-consuming job in all of college sports.
While all that was going on, the SEC had another record year on the field and negotiated the biggest television contract in the history of college sports that will carry the SEC brand nationwide.
And did I mention that Slive's daughter Anna, who ran the 2007 Final Four in Atlanta, is getting married in August? Slive said he is going to take a little time off in the coming weeks—if he can.
"I'm still waiting for summer to start," said Slive. "But I think we're entitled to 10 minutes of satisfaction and then we have to go back to work."
Programming note: We'll be doing our CSS show, "Talkin' Football" live each day during SEC media days. Tonight's show will feature Commissioner Slive along with the head coaches at Vanderbilt (Bobby Johnson), Arkansas (Bobby Petrino), Kentucky (Rich Brooks), and Mississippi State (Dan Mullen). Bob Neal, Mark Schlabach, and Sandra Golden will all be there to give you the inside access to SEC Media Days. Please join us. The show is at 6 p.m. with replays at 11 p.m. and 8 a.m. on Thursday.

However, Tony Barnyard wouldn't leave his wife for any of your coaches like he would for Saint Bobby Bowden.
So we ACCers got that going for us, which is nice.

No. I didn't see Tech's grad rates. If its bad then I assume that just like us they have a lot of athletes leaving school early for astronaut training.
Seriously though, Tech really is a hard school and every student has to take some pretty demanding math and science classes no matter what their major is. I remember when I saw this that I thought the level of calculus required would have bumped me out immediately. Cal 1 was enough for me. I wanted no more of that in my college days.

Regular Season Record vs. Other BCS Conferences/ND/Moutain West Conference, 2007-2008
Big Ten: 15-11 (.577)

Big East: 16-15 (.516)
Pac-10: 12-13 (.480)
Big 12: 12-14 (.462)
But this doesn't mean anything does it? It's just head to head competition. Tony care to elaborate why the SEC has the worst record? Oh by the way, Florida has 4 of those13 wins!! It should be called the Florida and Everyone Else Conferance. The SEC is not as tough as they think.

Don't worry about m he must have misplaced his crack pipe this morning or his mother took away his dungens and dragons game.M i know you are gonna find this hard to belive but there was a time when tech use to draw 60,000 fans to their football games and they did not even have to give away a free hot dog and coke.This was in the early 60's when tech was a member of the mighty SEC.The worst thing Bobby Dodd ever did was when he had Tech leave the confrence.Things have been all downhill for you since that time while things at GEORGIA have taken off.So m if you must be mad at someone be mad at Bobby Dodd that's where all your problems started.But M it's not all bad you get to go to your 40′000 seat stadium that's half full and enjoy your hot dog and coke.Lot's of luck loser.

Tide Rising—-Time to lose the math anxiety, my friend. If I could help Gator football player get A's and B's in the calculus survey course when I was a UAA tutor in grad school, I'm sure I could get you over the hump, too.
At Florida, all aspiring business majors (including athletes) are still required to take one semester of the survey of calculus sequence as part of their distribution requirements. Calculus really isn't that hard (unless it includes those damn trigonometric functions), and it's actually kind of fun when you get to see real world applications (like statistics). It also helps when you have a good tutor. LOL
July 22nd, 2009
2:23 pm
Do you have a breakdown of which SEC teams are responsible for those 16 losses? I suspect that the perennial cellar dwellers account for an inordinate amount of those losses.
Also, why are the bowl figures included? Bowl season, as you know, is when equally yoked teams square off.
July 22nd, 2009

SEC football composite schedule:
July 22nd, 2009
2:36 pm
Why does everyone seem to imply the Ole Miss victory over Texas Tech was some great accomplishment when all you hear about the BIG Tway-ELVE! is that they can't play D? 47-34, the final score, backs-up what everyone says. In fact, 47 pts was the 2nd most pts scored by Ole Miss in 2008 behind the 59-0 blowout of …. U. Louisiana Monroe.
All the SEC chest-thumping is getting a little annoying. Play the games ON THE FIELD, and determine a CHAMPION, not in the minds and wallets of the greedy, athletically lacking media & corporate sponsors.
So Ole Miss beats FL at FL, and USC loses AT Oregon State, but FL is the better 1-loss team bewteen the 2 (USC-FL), and plays for the NC. Says who? Would the Gators have beaten the Trojans in 2008 …. we'll never know. Now, for the other two, Ole Miss & OSU. They both finished 9-4, but Ole Miss is the better team. Says who? OSU's 4 losses were @ Stanford, Penn State, Utah, and home to Oregon. Ole Miss' 4 losses were @ Wake Frst & Bama, and home to South Caro & Vandy. I think most would agree that OSU's 4 losses were better teams than Ole Miss's losses. Now, would the Rebels have beaten the Beavers had they played in 2008 …. we'll never know. But it would have been a good 2nd/3rd round game in a playoff system!
Let's get a playoff system in place much sooner than later before too much of the SEC "kool-aid" is consumed.
July 22nd, 2009
2:39 pm
Got 12,
Because statistics from the postseason are not convenient.
Sun Belt 1-0…..1.000
Mountain West 4-1…..0.800
Pac Ten 4-2…..0.667
Big 12 5-3…..0.625
Big East 3-2…..0.600
Big Ten 3-5…..0.375

A friend just called me and asked me where the coaches were sitting at sec media days. Who was sitting next to who and so on. I told him I wasn't sure about any of that except that Kiffin was sitting in the time out corner. Sorry General Neyland but I just couldn't resist.
July 22nd, 2009
2:52 pm
Atlanta gator,
I eventually got over my math phobia and now I find math concepts fascinating but I'm just not one to do the actual chalkboard work. What's odd is that college algebra I hated with a passion but when I got to calculus I really didn't hate it that much. Even odder is that I excelled in statistics. Perhaps its because one day I wanted to really use what I learned to gamble in casinos and on football games and to evaluate odds, etc. Math holds my interest when I can see the real world applications but when you're just solving problems with no idea as to why you're doing those problems then I have a hard time grasping it. Speaking of stats I think I'll go look some up for the blogosphere.
July 22nd, 2009
2:53 pm
King of Sandy Springs, your numbers mean nothing. You have to look at the matchups and you can't conveniently leave out the bowl games. The ACC played in 45 non conference games vs 29 for the SEC. How is that possible with the minimum number of conference games required? Look at the ACC vs all other conferences, 50% more out of conference games. I think your numbers are wrong.

Frankly, as a Georgia fan, I could care less about the SEC's record overall vs other conferences. Suffice it to say, I'm quite sure that UGA/UF/LSU's record vs the BCS and in the bowls is quite strong.
Look at the bowl records lately, look at the BCS games overall that the SEC has been involved in. Don't forget that many of those BCS games had TWO SEC teams playing. Refresh my memory as to the last time the ACC had TWO BCS Bowl Teams.
I could go as far as to say that in 2007 that I think the SEC had the top two teams in the Nation at years end.
July 22nd, 2009
3:49 pm
King of Sandy Springs and all other ACC and SEC fans,
Let's just settle it once and for all on the ACC-SEC debate and look at head to head records of every time in each conference versus the other conference. Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere we go!!!!!!!!!!
SEC overall winning %s and wins and losses vs the ACC
Alabama .88 winning % 30 wins 4 losses
LSU .81 22 wins 5 losses
Georgia .73 98 wins 32 losses
Tenn. .71 66 win 25 losses
Auburn .69 43 wins 18 losses
Vandy .63 39 wins 23 losses
Florida .59 49 wins 33 losses
Kentucky .53 20 wins 17 losses
Ole Miss .50 3 wins 3 losses break even against the acc
S. Carolina .475 155-172 losing record against ACC
Miss. State .375 4 wins 7 losses against ACC
Arkansas 0.0 0 wins and 3 losses against ACC
Overall the SEC has 8 teams with winning records against the ACC, 1 with a .500 record, and 3 teams with losing records against the ACC. Of further note is the absolutely dominating head to head performance of Alabama at 88 % and LSU at 81 %. Georgia and UT also have impressive over 70% winning records and Auburn is nearly at 70 with a 69% winning rate.
Now for a look at the ACCs head to head record against the SEC
Georgia Tech .51 winning % 177 wins 169 losses
Duke .46 winning % 41 wins 47 losses
Maryland .43 26 wins 35 losses
Miami .41 58 wins 81 losses
Boston Coll .41 14 wins 20 losses
Florida state .40 44 wins 66 losses
North Carolina .36 35 wins 65 losses
Virginia Tech .33 18 wins 38 losses
Wake Forest .29 12 wins 29 losses
Clemson .28 42 wins 111 losses
NC state .27 10 wins 28 losses
Virginia .24 8 wins 26 losses
So it looks like GT is the only ACC member who has a winning record against the SEC and even then its barely .51 %. Overall the other 11 ACC member's performance against the SEC in all time head to head is nothing short of abysmal as any fair minded person can clearly see. Its horrible. Only 1 team with a barely over 50% winning record, 2 teams in the 30 % winning ratio against the SEC and 4 teams with winning %s in the 20s against the SEC. Also, 4 teams that are in the low 40% winning against the SEC.
The SEC VS ACC debate is over.
The source is stassen.com a college football database of wins, losses, etc.

You could also have used annual attendance, TV ratings or revenue to end the ACC v. SEC football debate. (Somehow, I doubt the debate is over.)

CMR came to UGA in 2001. The SEC has changed since then.
Bama didnt have Saban.
FL had Zook, and now has Meyer.
Ark now has Petrino
Nutt went to Ole Miss
USC got better when Spurrier arrived
KY has begun to turn their program around
Tenn now has some new NFL coaches, and a Super-Bowl winning D.
GT now has CPJ, not Chan Gailey
The point:
CMR's record W-L record for the NEXT 7 years isnt gonna be anything like the last 7 years. Its over.
CMR's W-L record is gonna start getting WORSE, starting with a beatdown by OKST to start a 7-5 season.
Thats right: Losses to OKST, Ark, LSU, FL, and GT.
July 22nd, 2009
5:03 pm
And what would gt's record vs. the SEC look like if you only counted games when gt was actually in the acc.
July 22nd, 2009
5:11 pm
Too easy,
I'll look that stat up also when I get time. Since UGA has dominated the series since tech joined the ACC it would probably end up giving Tech an overall losing record against the sec. I'll look that up and see but if that's the case then nobody in the acc would have a winning record against the sec.
July 22nd, 2009
5:45 pm
With all those SEC teams winning National Championships in football, UGAY won a big fat zero! it's been like that for 28 years.Maybe the women Gym dawgs can help the over rated mutts. UGA= A WOMENS UNIVERSITY! HAHA

JoeV…… the reason the sec is receiving all the attention, 1)quality football, 2)the fervor of its fanbase.. when sec fans started recognizing the respect it's member schools recieved by chanting "sec", "sec", "sec" whenever a conf. team was doing well ooc, not just one sec team, but all sec teams benefitted, so, it all kind of mushroomed from there. 3)the sec regular season ticket sales, II to none and one of the hardst to procure. these are the intangibles that the espn's and other networks love to see, so voila; big big money deals! 4) see no. 2. without the way that fans of the sec came together, i don't the sec would be signing these sized contracts. 10 or so years ago, the conf wasn't getting any love from the networks or other conferences for the perks of co. football, but the vocal sec fans helped to change that sit.
so maybe other conf's fans should follow the sec fans mantra

"In other words: If you're the SEC right now, the only thing that can screw this up is you."
Perhaps this is what Arkansas was thinking when it backed out of its HOME game against Texas this year because the piggies were afraid to play two Big 12 teams in the same season.

The definition of dominance has NOTHING to do with the score (unless you are talking about 63-17!). A 3-1 record over the past 4 years is dominance. ALL THAT MATTERS IS THE W!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow, you silly coot. 65-37-4 overall. 8 of the last 10. 16 of the last 20! The last time you beat us 2 in a row was 1970!!! My God man, what does a team have to do for you to consider them dominant?!?!? UGA is dominant over Clemson, I would NEVER try to argue that…the numbers speak for themselves. So why is it that you coots can't see that about Clemson's dominance over you? Lord man.
I'm not arguing that SEC football isn't the tops! I just can't get behind ANY reason to EVER root for your conference. They are supposed to be your enemies man. You are SUPPOSED to HATE them.
July 22nd, 2009
6:50 pm
Tide Rising. Thanks for the stats…numbers don't lie. I don't know why this gets argued all the time. The SEC is a better conference top to bottom, bottom to top. Now lets all move on and spot the damn ball! 45 days!
July 22nd, 2009
8:28 pm
SEC is the #1 OVERRATED conference!! So freak'n top heavy and the bottom half is so weak in the SEC. The "SEC is sooo tough to play every week" chant is an absolute lie and a complete JOKE!!
The actual reason the SEC can not be slowed down by any other league is simply because the SEC has a strict plan to schedule the absolute weakest out of conference schedule possible. SEC fans should be embarrassed by the out of conference teams; the only reason most (maybe all) of the decent-to-good out of conference games are scheduled is because of automatic rivalry games.
It seems to be working well for the SEC, but only because the sports media LOVES to talk about how strong the SEC teams are and does not expose the conference for the VERY weak schedules nearly all of the SEC teams play each and every year.
Go GT and I can't wait for some College Football!!

The phantom "NUMBERS" listed by Rising Tide are funny; the total number of SEC vs. ACC games is 871 while the total number of ACC vs. SEC games is 1139.
It is hard to believe numbers like these when the total games played do not even come close to adding up……….did Rising Tide think he could just list a bunch of random stats and think GT fans would take the numbers as the truth. More lies and mis-information to support an inflated opinion of the most over-rated conference in the nation (The SEC)!! I have no doubt many or most of the blind (sometimes ignorant of the truth) SEC fans take these numbers as absolute facts.
July 23rd, 2009
12:14 am
GT Grad,
The numbers come from Stassen.com and you can look them up for yourself. Also, the numbers differ because some include or don't include Tech's time in the SEC and Carolina's time in the ACC. That is why they are off.
Go to Stassen.com and not only will it give you the same breakdown but it will list individual games.

C'mon, no one is really interested in drinking that kool-aid. To suggest that somehow the academic program is dependent upon athletic dollars is ludicrous.

The SEC's graduation rate for athletes is terrible. Of course the goal is "win at any cost". Too bad most athletes don't graduate at the rate some of the Big 12 athletes do. By the way, how many Academic All-Americans has Georgia produced?

I've been away from my blog lately. Spring , bringing change I guess.
I have been working on my Squidoo lens of late though. I am getting into the concept of Squidoo this year. I joined back in 2011 but did very little beyond a few lens that never went anywhere. They didn't go because they didn't follow the guidelines of Squidoo. The biggest thing is they were not personalized.
I've posted a few lens and they are starting to get attention. That is the key. Relationship marketing is all about gaining attention and trust. I've failed at this and maybe working on my Squidoo lens will show me what I've been doing wrong. What I like about Squidoo is the feedback. Not only from the readers and visitors but from the system itself. The system rewards you for attendance, for posting, for contributing and commenting. This is reinforcing some of the key principles of online marketing. Consistency, persistence and connectivity.
Here are a few choice lens I've done.

[Video Link] The FreedomSleeve is an iPhone sleeve that connects a 3G iPhone to a "free" 4G network. It can be used as a wifi hotspot, and has a built-in battery to extend the iPhone's internal battery an additional 6 hours. It cost $99 and you get "up to 1GB of free data every month." According to GigaOM, each additional megabyte will cost a penny. Service is expected to start this summer. I hope the service is international. Freedom Pop iPhone Sleeve Discuss

Chrs says:
Just 30% more expensive for the hardware than established devices that just provide power (assuming Morphie is standard), plus a gig of free WiFi data and minimal overage fees…
I'd love it if there is some explanation, but how is this a logical business model?
Joshua Ochs says:
Exactly – "too good to be true" is involuntarily springing to mind.

Nathan says:
So no actual description of the subscription terms (monthly fees, cellular data add-ons, taxes, etc. etc. etc. – and no, telling BB or some random tech blog about it does NOT count) on the site beyond a boilerplate weasel-clause TOS and privacy policy. And the pre-order service check asks me for not only my name, email address and zip code, but my home address as well? If they need to be that specific, if only PART of a single zip code may be covered, I have doubts. Sometimes I even leave my house with my mobile phone. Strange but true.
So, yeah. Not hardly fishy at all. What next? "Please provide a credit card number, so we can verify… Things. Yeah. Technical things." Pro-tip, guys. If you're offering an apparently-too-good-to-be-true service, and you're actually legit, try not doing everything possible to make yourself look like a phishing scheme. And maybe, you know, describe your service beyond a few nebulous bullet points. We shouldn't have to go to a random tech news website to figure out how you work.

Dennis Chi says:
Engadget is reporting that the service is backed by Skype co-founder Niklas Zennstrom. If it's legit, that's amazing.
pajp says:
6 Mbps doesn't really sound like 4G. Here in Finland people are complaining that the 3rd gen iPad didn't get the "real" 4G but I still regularly get 17-20 Mbps. My 3G Nokia N9 gets 4-6 Mbps.
Wisconsin Platt says:
Those of us in the states have to settle for 4G that is really just a rebranded 3G + some enhancements. In fact, a couple of IOS updates ago, my 3G connection on my iPhone 4S suddenly became a 4G connection even though the only change I can see is it says 4G instead of 3G up on the status bar. :(
Red Garner says:
Thats not true. Verizon offers 4g LTE service for a handful of android phones and portable wifi hotspots. On my HTC thunderbolt i get between 20 and 30 mbps in Philly and NY. Even in some less popular 4g markets like Allentown and Scranton i get 10+ mbps.
just_a_user says:
Might be slower when its in wide use.
manicbassman says:
well, there's nothing magic about this that stops it from being available for Android phones bar the connector issue and the fact that Android phones come in a myriad of form factors…
ludwigk says:
Are you missing a /s tag? The FreedomPOP is a 4G cell receiver that acts as a wifi hotspot. So the phone HAS to be on wifi to use the FreedomPOP.
Of course, I have no idea what a "free" 4G network is. If there is such a thing, why do wireless plans cost so much?
Nylund says:
From an article I saw, it says it "will tap into Clearwire's WiMax network." It says that's only available in 72 markets right now. One can check one's address here:
The article also says it only guarantees 500 mb of free data, with some vague statement about ways to get it up to 1 gig.

Examining 'Rage And Rebellion' In The Islamic World
By NPR Staff
Syria is just one of the many countries across the Arab world where citizens have taken to the streets for change, often at great cost to themselves. A book out this coming week looks at what may be roiling in the Middle East, from Tunisia to Tehran. It's called Rock the Casbah: Rage and Rebellion Across the Islamic World. Host Scott Simon speaks with journalist and foreign policy analyst Robin Wright about her book.

The many faces of Cupcakes.
Stern,questionable,content,bug-eyed,happy…..nope tricked you mad Cupcakes
My natural hair journey has been going pretty well. I can say I feel a big relief not having to flat iron, apply the hair crack or put any chemical in my hair- expect hair color. As my coily, curly, fro like hair continues to grow out, I feel me growing too. I understand now my beauty is how I present myself and it is deep inside of me. There is nothing make-up or a weave can do if you do not install confidence within yourself. Society has a lot of women thinking that, if you apply tons of make-up and your hair is bone straight you are beautify-no. True beauty is being comfortable in your skin in and out. You can not have one with out the other.
As I stare into your soul
That peaks through the hospital gown binding you
I could never imagine my status with you Let alone "with you" leaving the tip of my tongue
I say my dear these past months has evoked emotions I stored deep down in the strongest vessel pumping the same thoughts of loving you
Loving you, loving you ugh I say to my self Maybe I'm just in love with the thought of being loved by you
I told you my venoms the same poison we both seem to exchange turning it to what seems to be pure beauty at it's rawest
You seem to get under my skin through each pore examining each strand of me which I have yet come to terms with
And I have abundant of questions of yet why I let you in so comfortably ?
I puzzle myself to this day after you caused a shipwreck in my heart from pure gluttony on your behalf
I puzzle myself because the simple thing I asked you not to create you defined with a bold line
Mistakes, yes we all make them, You confessed and confided in me deep sorrow from the actions you drew out
And even with me being distraught in that moment I felt even more dumbfounded that I simply wanted to forgive you
Why ? I screamed in my head with my heart saying why not?
What made me care so much ? Why do I tend to need your touch to simple fall asleep
The million and one questions that plague my dome are answered by one response
I love you
Even if I can not track my footsteps on how I got here What is evident is I am still here submerging deeper into your hold
"I said the table for two, maybe cuz I am ah fool, I said the table for two 🌻 #kaliuchis #tablefortwo
Why would this ever be up in the arab store lmao they too Americanize now (Taken with Instagram)
A great read for anyone looking to experience life (Taken with Instagram)

Heat and still water slow down Devizes paddlers
11:07am Thursday 28th April 2011 in News By Jill Crooks, Devizes area senior reporter
The heat led to few records being broken on the 125 mile race which the winners completed in just over 18 hours (35958/8)
Kat Burbeck, a former pupil at Dauntsey's School in West Lavington, and fellow paddler Shuna Braithwaite won the women's senior doubles title in the Devizes to Westminster Canoe Race.
Miss Burbeck, the daughter of Dame Elizabeth Neville the former Chief Constable of Wiltshire who lives in Devizes, and Miss Braithwaite finished the 125 mile race in a time of 19 hours 37 minutes and two seconds, placing them 6th overall. This is thought to be the highest placing for a women's double crew in the history of the race.
The two failed to break the women's record of 18 hours 47 minutes and five seconds, which has stood since 1995, but their time is the second fastest for a women's crew and beats the previous second best time of 19 hours and 55 minutes and 24 seconds, set by Miss Burbeck and Gilly Mara in 2007.
This year's race was defined by hot temperatures combined with very little flow on the River Thames which led to slower times, compared to last year's cold, windy and wet weather.
Miss Burbeck, 25, said: "There was no flow on the river and for the last 30 miles there was a mild, relentless wind. We were losing time from the start. We are really pleased with our performance. I feel we were a good enough calibre of paddler to break the record but conditions were not in our favour."
Miss Burbeck lives and works in Nottingham. She is a process engineer at Thorntons, while Miss Braithwaite, 24, a former Great Britain sprint paddler, is a trainee science teacher in Kenilworth, Warwickshire.
The winners of the senior doubles were the same as last year. Richard Hendron of BPP University College and James King of Cranfield University finished in 18 hours eight minutes and six seconds, just under two hours slower than last year.
In second place were Timothy Cornish and Ollie Harding of Longridge Canoe Club, in a time of 18 hours 28 minutes and 22 seconds. Mr Cornish holds the course record of 15 hours 34 minutes and 12 seconds, which he set in 1979 with Brian Greenham.
World champion canoeists Ivan Lawler, 44, and Ben Brown, 25, of Surrey, had set themselves the goal of breaking the course record but retired after nine hours and 51 minutes.
Mr Lawler, a five times marathon world champion, and Mr Brown, the 2010 world marathon champion, pulled out at Cookham on the River Thames.
Mr Lawler said: "There was no flow on the river and the wind was against us and we couldn't get the speed up. After battling in the wind the record was not going to be a goer. We could have crawled to the end and got a result of some sort but that is not what we were there for."
Of the non-stop crews 40 out of the 151 entered failed to finish.The highest placed crew from Devizes Canoe Club were father and son Mark and Charlie Bouch, who were 28th in a time of 23 hours 21 minutes and 51 seconds.

August 1, 2014
WASHINGTON (AP) Federal officials have taken another step toward establishing 17 new "solar energy zones" on public lands in the West by barring new mining claims that could impede renewable energy development on the sites.
The Interior Department said Friday it has withdrawn nearly 304,000 acres of public lands in Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah from new mining claims.
To streamline solar development, the new zones are located near existing transmission lines, and were chosen because they had fewer environmental and cultural issues that would require years of study and mitigation.
Since 2009 the Bureau of Land Management has approved 25 solar projects in the West that when built will be able to power more than 2.4 million homes.

Hey Good Buddy, Notice you have reach 2300 Days Mark Posting, Keep up the good work, Your Gas Buddy Here.
Congratulations on posting for 2300 consecutive days, that is real dedication, helping others to save money on gas.
Thanks for being my newest friend. I see you're a Beirut veteran. Thanks for getting back alive.
What are you doing going to and from work in I-69? I'm a high school grad, too, and that's about it. Never had Kindergarten even though I was born in Germany.
Hey gas buddy, let me give you A BIG CONGRATS on your 2300 [dbl WOW] Cons. Days!! Keep up the good work. David...........QQ
Great job on the 2276 days as well!
Enjoy the 4th my friend!
FORD! First On Race Day! Something I wanted to say: I AM a greenie mind you, but I'm not an eco-nazi like some are. You want to pay $5 to $14 a gallon for gas? Some want you to. Do you drive a EV or a hybrid at least? Some would rather see you in jail if you're not. Some of them are getting more extreme all the time. You're gas prices might start to go up there within the next two to four days. Where it goes up to this time I'm not certain. If it doesn't go up within the next five days or so and we get a further break going down or sideways on price, then we'll most likely be going up by the 15th to the 24th at the latest. I had REALLY hoped we'd have a break through until the 15th, but it not looking like that. You have a good weekend ahead.
Congratulations on posting for 2200 consecutive days. That is real commitment. May 2014 bring peace and joy. .YB.Shep
Congratulations on having the perseverance to post for 2,200 consecutive days! Good luck on reaching your next milestone!! Warren :-)

This is a great, light recipe. I have not used the anise or black walnut extracts in this recipe, instead I used 2 and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. I also add a splash of milk to all my biscotti recipes to make them softer and easier to bite into. Great with white and semisweet chocolate. Watch them very closely when these are in the oven the second time!! These will cook very quickly the second time around.
Taste good, but was very crumbly. I thought they tasted better the next day after being in an air tight container. I halved the recipe and only used almond and pure vanilla extract. Made 1 12" rope (didn't like the mini size). I used a SILPAT to bake on but the bottoms still got to brown for me. Decided to use the rest of dough and formed a larger loaf. Baked 10 minutes longer. I melted white and dark chocolate to garnish/drizzle.
This is so good and won the approval of a child and an 85 year old woman. Need I say more! Better than any biscotti I've ever bought. We used fresh black walnuts in our recipe.

, L.A.s' premiere vegan/vegetarian restaurant, which closed temporarily on Dec. 31, 2010 while its owners embarked on a "creative hiatus," is reopening again—as early as Thursday, September 15.
Noted artist and Fatty's co-owner Kim Dingle announced Sunday that Chef Aude Charles has designed a new menu inspired primarily by the cuisines of Provence and Tuscany.
The food, which Dingle described as "Vegan with Vegetarian options," (cheese-lovers, take note) will be paired with the exquisite boutique wines for which Fatty's has been known.
The restaurant's staff has also created a new beer menu based on family-owned artisan breweries from Belgium, Germany and California.
The reopening comes almost exactly a month after Chicago restauranter and Glendale wine purveyor Charlie Puffer started a weekend pop-up restaurant, Charlie Puffer at Fatty's, at the restaurant in a re-designed space.
Fatty's will be open Thursdays through Saturdays from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., and from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Sundays.

Where's My Cheese?
It seems that when I tested out Word 2013, nothing seemed the same. The colors where different, some button names had changed, and even my Ribbon was different! As much as I like change, relearning to use software is not my favorite thing! To help you along, I am working on writing Microsoft Word 2013 directions for everyday word processing tasks so you don't have to face this change alone!
Make sure and read 4 Ways to Insert Tables in Microsoft Word 2013, Word Count in Word 2013, How to Create a Page Border in Word 2013, Insert Images and Clip Art in Word 2013, and How to Wrap Text Around Images in Word 2013.
I Wish I Had Patented My Idea!
There is a little trick that I have been using for almost 2 decades now. I use it to make sure that my items are aligned perfectly in my documents (or presentations, publications, and even web sites). See, I am a stickler for having my images and graphics aligned just perfectly and I have wasted hours and hours trying to get things right.
My work around, instead of just guessing, was to draw a line using Shapes. I would hold down my Shift key to make sure my line was straight, and then I would nudge my objects so that they were touching the line.
Well, after previewing Microsoft Office 2013, I found out they stole my idea! Ok, maybe stealing is a harsh accusation - but there is my idea! My line! And I didn't even have to draw it. Things just snap right to it. It is called an Alignment Guide. Where, oh where have you been all my life?
Make sure to read my review of Word 2013 and share what your favorite new thing is!

Bookmarks Aren't Just For Books!
When I think of bookmarks, I usually think of slips of paper that I use to mark my spot in a book. Well, word processing bookmarks do the same thing as those little slips of paper. They are electronic bookmarks that hold your place in the document! Read all about inserting bookmarks in both Microsoft Word and in WordPerfect.
Footnotes and Endnotes in WordPerfect
It seems like there is a large number of you who love WordPerfect! Based on a reader question, I decided to write about Footnotes and Endotes in WordPerfect. You can also read about adding Footnotes and Endnotes in Microsoft Word!
What other programs do you want to learn about? You can send me an email or ask in my forum and I will make sure to write about it!
Try Inserting Text Boxes!
Sometimes, when we are trying to format documents, we can try everything under the sun to get our text positioned just so! Or maybe that is just me? I always seem to forget about text boxes. They are easy to insert, and with Microsoft Word's built in text box styles, you can use them with almost no work! Or, if you want more control, try creating your own text box from scratch. To learn how, follow the steps in How to Insert a Text Box.
Did You Know About...Line Numbers in Word Perfect?
About a month ago, I wrote an article about Line Numbers in Microsoft Word. I love Line Numbers, especially when I need to collaborate on a document. However, one of you, the readers, asked "What happened to this feature in Word Perfect?" I am here to tell you, it did not go away, it just moved! Make sure to read How to Add Line Numbers in Word Perfect to see how it is done!
Not a Word Perfect user? Read about Line Numbers in Microsoft Word, or, better yet, drop me a line and let me know what program you want to see line numbers in!
Resize Versus Crop
So, maybe you have a picture or a piece of Clip Art in your document and you are trying to decide if you should crop it to make it fit better in your document or if you should resize it. What? I can't be the only one who has had to ask myself this to Crop or Resize?
My answer usually is BOTH! I prefer to crop out the extra space and unnecessary background. Then I shrink it down to the size I need. This lets you keep the focus on the subject of the image, no matter how small you make it.
Read How to Resize an Image or Object to learn how to resize and crop!
All About Images
OK - maybe not ALL about images - how about a lot about images instead?
Everyone who works with word processing documents should know how to work with images. These can include inserting clip art to add a sense of whimsy to your documents or maybe a logo to showcase your business! And adding an image into a document isn't the end of the story. You may also need to adjust where the image is positioned in your documents or how text wraps around images!
Word Columns Are Not Torture!
As many of you know, I heart tables! And tables are a great alternative to columns; however, if you really insist that your documents needs columns, then you need to do your research! Make sure you read Everything You Need to Know About Columns to learn how to insert columns into your Microsoft Word documents. Also read How to Insert Breaks in Microsoft Word 201o and 20o7 to learn how to control those pesky columns!
Columns don't have to be an exercise in torture! You just have to know how to use them!

Original recipe yields 4 servings
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Coat salmon fillet with 2 tablespoons pesto. Place in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and flake salmon into chunks; set salmon aside.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in rigatoni, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until rigatoni has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain in a colander.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat.
- Cook and stir spinach in oil until wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove spinach and set aside.
- Cook and stir garlic, shallots, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in the same skillet until garlic and shallots are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Pour in extra oil if needed.
- Stir in drained artichoke hearts and cook until heated, about 3 minutes.
- Pour in white wine and simmer until slightly reduced, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Combine 2 tablespoons pesto, cooked spinach, salmon, Parmesan cheese, and cooked pasta in the skillet and lightly toss until mixed, 1 to 2 minutes.

My husband and & I really liked this, but it was a little complicated. Not wanting to turn the oven on, I pan fried the salmon, then used the same pan for everything else - removing as much of the pesto from the salmon as possible so it didn't burn & turn the meal bitter. It worked great and the flavors worked well together. I look forward to having leftovers for lunch tomorrow!
My husband and I loved the recipe. I actually doubled the red pepper flakes, because we do like the extra spice (and it was a definite added kick!). I also added extra olive oil that was suggested. Unfortunately I bought the 6oz bag of spinach by accident, but it still turned out great. It did take a bit longer to cook than expected, but it was well worth it. We will definitely be making this again! (I would skip the red pepper flakes if you want your kids to try it).
The family really enjoyed this one. We added about 1/2 cup of chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a tablespoon of capers, also, which we thought were a good addition.

look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Poured from a 22 into a pint. Huge cream-colored head settles to a mountainous two finger froth with excellent rings of lace. Hazy amber with gold hues.
Smells of fresh oranges with a subtle airy pine and sliced apples. Hints of resin, flowers and fresh air.
Taste is bitter and hoppy with hints of cherries, orange rind and roasted barley. Slight grassiness and buttery diacetyl. Body is medium and on the oily side. Very drinkable, but not spectacular.

Pouring a slightly hazed, deep amber color with a tall, lace-busy, cream colored head, this brew has a strong orange and grapefruit hop aroma overlaying a sweet caramel malt scent. Medium-bodied, it has a strong caramel backbone on top of which is heaped a generous portion of citric hop bitterness. The finish is only lightly bitter, but enough to bring me back.

22 oz. bottle purchased in Dixon. Noticed it was contract brewed by my local brewpeb, SudWerk. Pours a nice orange-brown with a rocky whitish head. Sticky, uneven lacing. Aroma is very nice and refreshing...evenly presented pine and orange hop odors, some sweetness, hint of lemon. Flavor has the orange and lemon and pine all in there up front, with a growing bitterness and light malt sweetness. Very, very tasty. Mediuum bodied, with a little note of hop resin. Very clean and well balanced west coast style IPA. Tasty.

Orange-gold pour with a fluffy white head. Clean, hoppy, citrus aroma with some grass. The taste mirrors the aroma. The hops are prominent and taste fresh. Good malt back really compliments this beer. I had this after the DUIPA, and I gotta say, this was much better in terms of balance and taste.

22oz. bottle
Poured a clear, golden color. Clarity ended with final pour as I got quite a bit of sediment. Large, creamy, ivory colored head. Some lacing, no real legs to speak of. Really good looking beer until that last bit....
Scent of oranges and grass. Some caramel. Spicy.
Taste was well balanced. Nice bitterness of the orange and grass variety. Decent malt, wheat bread like, with a bit of honey. Bitter hangs around in the finish, more grassy/herbal than citrus. Some sweet flavor in there, bubblegum? Also a medicinal note, which was not a plus.
Medium body. Low to medium carbonation. Not very dry.
Pretty good. A bit more balanced than I like 'em, but a decent IPA.

Poured a nice honey color with a huge white head. Evan as I sipped it stuck around for a while. It smelled of piney and citrus notes. taste was very smooth at beginning with a hop kick of piney and citrus flavors which is good for me because I love that mix of piney and citrus notes. Mouthfeel was good, really stuck around for a while and it followed the taste but at the end is a subtle but good bitterness to let you know. Dry hopped is quite obvious as this beer has hops from beginning to end.

Nice rich cloudy amber pour with a large, everlasting offwhite head. Smell is big and piney, and fruity hops with a great sweetness coming through as well. Very rich aromatic smell. Body is slightly thinner than I like, but makes for it to be very drinkable. Taste is flavorful hops, perfectly sweetened by the malt, with a nice mild bitterness in the finish. Very well balanced, and resultedly extremely pleasant and easy to drink. Perhaps my new favorite IPA.

Aroma of malt and floral hops. Clear, golden/amber, frothy off-white head: thick and mostly lasting. Some lacing. Toasty, malty flavor very well balanced with resiny, spicy hop flavor and a good level of bitterness. Some fruity notes in the background. Medium carbonation, creamy mouthfeel with a long, sticky finish and a nicely balanced aftertaste. Very nice.

Nitro-tap at Beachwood BBQ, in Seal Beach, CA,
A: Pours a blonde yellow, with a full, cumulus-cloud white head, very fluffy, with incredible, full lacing throughout the drink.
S: Light citrus, and malt, pretty faint.
T: Very citrusy, hoppy, with some tropical fruit, notably pineapple notes, some mango, with a nice biscuit malt character.
M: On the thin side as nitros tend to be for me, nice creaminess, the resin really comes out, an interesting serving type to try for an IPA.
D: Very drinkable, a tasty beer from Hoptown, I would like to see it in a bottle to see if the flavours are more concentreated than in the nitro-tap, but overall, very good, a nice showing.

Pint at Beachwood BBQ in Seal Beach for $5.50 today during lunch time while watching the Raiders lose once again
The nitro really made this one look cloudy and flat out awesome, deep orange color with the whitest and most creamy head you could possibly imagine, crazy how much lacing stuck to the glass the entire time and there was also a phenomenonal amount of retention
Smell was fairly faint, but there was both citrus and agressively floral hop aromas, hints of charcoal, caramel malt, and whiffs of strong grapefruit as well
Taste was hoppy to say the least but it was so easy to drink, bitter hoppiness right off the bat that lasted for about ten minutes, then the orange, lemon, and tangerine flavors came into play and gave this IPA a slightly sweet flavor that put this one in another league, awesome hop profile, refreshing and thirst quenching, tasted great even though this one would be even better in the summer when it is hot, love the piney finish it had and had a fantastic aftertaste every time, great tasting beer, best one I have had on a nitro-tap
Not much carbonation but that it did not hinder its taste at all, the body was super thick for an india pale ale and it had quite a long lasting flavor, nice mouthfeel overall
Could have drank this until I could not possibly take another sip, probably four pints if I wanted to at a sitting, but I would get full because of its overwhelming hoppiness, heavy stuff even though the ABV is not that high and it is scary smooth and easy to drink
My first beer from Hoptown and it was a doozy, I highly recommend this and I could not see this tasting better on a normal tap or out of bottle, look forward to trying this again in the future, one of the better American IPAs I have had in a long time

22oz bomber, served in a pint glass.
A - hazy, burnt orange color with a creamy head of thick tan foam that settled after time, leaving loads of sticky lacing on the glass.
S - floral hop and slight citrus aromas, it sort of smells like Tang.
T - not the best IPA I've had, but it's not the worst I've had either. Starts off sweet tasting and then turns bitter in the mouth and on the finish. Some yeast can be tatsed upon burping.
M - medium bodied, mildly chewy with light carbonation.
D - ok drinkability, not your everyday IPA.

look: 3 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5
Where to start, this beer was an interesting mix of a generic IPA and some random unexpectedly good qualities. It was a nice orange-copper color but it was overly hazy and even after a couple days in the fridge the yeast didn't fully settle. The foam was a nice thick white head with some decent lacing and tasted nice and sweet.
The beer itself had a decent flavor, a bit caramel like possibly with some centennial hops(?). Moderately bitter but thats what you get with an IPA I guess. Sharp aftertaste thats kinda dry. The beer had a decently heavy body to it. Its drinkable because of the flavor but I'm not sure I'd drink a lot of it at one time.

Acquired from fartingdog, courtesy of Birthday Club 2, so a big "Thank you" goes out to him. Poured from a 22oz bottle into an imperial pint glass.
A: The beer is a bright orange color with a large off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma is very sweet and very hoppy with fruity citrus and some caramelized malts.
T: The taste is nicely balanced with a strong burst of floral hops bitterness up front. Then some sweetness comes in from flavors of caramel and citrus to tone things down. The malt character is good but on the light side for the style. The after-taste is slightly bitter.
M: Smooth and very crisp, medium body, medium-to-high carbonation, finish is clean and dry.
D: Quite tasty, goes down easily, not very filling, decent kick, very good representation of style, this is yet another excellent West Coast IPA that I could enjoy for a whole evening, since it's so light for an IPA and has an ABV level low enough to allow you to go with it for a while. Overall, I think this is a very good beer.

New offering at the local liquor store...
Pours a slightly hazy gold color with a nice white head.
Aromas are of citrus fruits, mostly a bitter grapefruit like smell.
Beer has a tart and sour citrus grapefruit like flavor. A bit puckering and bitter on the finish as well. There also is a slight cereal malt flavor, that is caramel like, sweet and creamy.
Mouthfeel is a bit light and watered down. But not bad.
Drinkability is good. Not a great IPA, but it's solid enough. Some classic hop flavors that are tasty, but the weaker body holds this one down a notch or so. It's still pleasant enough, and quite easy to drink.

Picked this one while I was out in Cali this summer, how I miss thee.
22 oz. bottle poured into a nonic.
Pours a clear copper hue with a two finger white head that quickly dies down to a thin lacing. Stickiness is pretty good, portions are covered in webby goodness. Smell is an earthy hop with pine and pink grapefruit. Good amount of caramel malt in the nose as well, good ol' west coast IPA. Taste is a bit weak for Cali, some floral notes and citrusy sweetness up front followed by the yummy caramel malt. Very clean on the tongue, but dull. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and creamy with a mild carbonation feel. Pretty easy going down, likable IPA for sure but not your typical west coast hop bomb. Definitely worth a try.

Sampled April 2007
Pours with a brilliantly clear, cranberry-copper color and is topped by a frothy, initially fat-two-finger thick, light tan colored head. The aroma smells of sweet toffee, caramel and figs as well as a herbal citrus character.
Fairly sweet, with a solid caramel malt flavor to it up front. Malt continues on through to a finish that has a dry, toasted grain character to it as well as some continued caramel flavors. The beer finishes with a fair amount of bitterness. As the beer warms herbal hop notes become quite a bit more noticeable, still they are paired with an at times not quite equal, yet in others the dominant note of sweet citrus hop character of orange peel and grapefruit. Touches of biscuits and toasted malt are noticeable around the edges.
This beer is definitely past its hop aggressive prime, without a bottle date though I have no idea to its age. Still it is a good tasting brew that is perhaps a bit more malt balanced than when it first started out in the bottle.

Originally reviewed November 26, 2006. On tap at Pizza Port Carlsbad. Light wisp of coarse lemony hops. Orange golden-fringed pour. Rim of whitish. Flavor is a light, nice almost raisiny malt character, backed with a heavy hand of hops, in sweet candied orange peel cirtus and lot of both white and ruby red grapefruit character. Some candied ginger and light cherries back this one out of becoming too uninteresting. Another well done, yet not exciting IPA.

A rustic golden orange fills the glass with a little yeast floating in suspension. Nice single finger head that melts to a rim of sticky lacing.
Aroma is all about hops...Cascade and Centinial...fresh, citrusy and green.
Taste surprisingly has a malt thickness and sweetness that is reminiscent of a DIPA. As you swallow though, pleasantly bitter citrus hops take over...pineapple at first...then orange, finishing with grapefruit. Just a hint of sweetness blending in with the hops at the end reminds you again of the DIPA similarities.
Finish is drying...not cloying at all.
This is a complex, yet straightforward IPA...a wonderful marriage of malt and hops and something I would like to keep in the fridge all of the time.

I was shopping at Lena's in Paynesville, OH, marvelling at the selection of ales. What to get... so I grab for something, a not too expensive bomber with "hop" in the name. Turned out to be a good choice.
This brew poured a cloudy, hazy tan, very promising. It had a great nose, very complex with hops galore, all across the spectrum. Taste was piney with good, strong but balanced flavor. Very substantial and satisfying. Mouthfeel and drinkability were fine. I liked this, would get again.

Label shows a happy town pastoral cartoon. Label states dry hopped and unfiltered.
Bomber pours a rich dark apricot color with a few scant bubbles floating to greet a clean surface.
Sweet bright floral aromatic peach fruit nose.
First swigs: Spree candy IPA sweet & cornicopia fruit. Cherry and apricot middle. Falls onto the side of orange pith hoppy over a covered malty dusty grain base. Mostly a white grapefruit center that branches out to thinner flavors.
Linger of dry and juicy hops that spells out IPA with capital letters.
Fluffy carbonation and medium body builds a nice version. Finish is a tad cloying.
Last swigs: A standard IPA that is edible and not regrettable. Glad that I grabbed this at Hi-Times in Costa Mesa, CA.
Beer is good. Happy West Coast IPA beering.

Truth be told, I picked this one off the shelf simply because I was desperate for something new. Admittedly, I really didnt expect much from this brew. The name was a little too cutesy, even for a girlie girl like me, but then again, Im a girly girl who happens to favor hop-heavy beer.
Im thinking my glassware must have had some kind of residue on it, because while there was that cascading action that others have written about, I didnt get the two-finger high head.
What I did get, however, was a new favorite beer! Hoptown possesses a delightful woods and flower aroma, a delicate balance of citrus and malty-sweet flavors, and a full-bodied orange-amber hue. This IPA has a weighty mouthfeel, and is almost cloudy like a good hefe. Yet it has all the makings of a good, solid, and classic IPA.
What more can I say? I love this beer.

I had this at the Hop Yard in Pleasanton, CA. This is right next to the brewery, and the beer was wonderfully fresh. Hazy copper color, with a nice sized white head. Wonderful fresh hop aroma. The nose has some grapefruit a little orange, pine hop. The flavor mirrors the nose well. It has a lot of the citrus, light caramel sweetness. A little floral hop bitterness on the finish. Slick slightly dry mouth feel. Very drinkable. Very nice as a fresh draft beer.

The Tonawanda News
— —
City of Tonawanda police are investigating a theft of $500 in scrap copper they say happened late Tuesday at a business at 623 Young St.
A lock on a fenced gate was apparently cut, and surveillance video shows a white male loading about 80 pounds of industrial copper coils into his dark-colored sport utility vehicle.
"Someone cut the lock to the fencing between two large storage trailers and stole a quantity of copper scrap and some aluminum," a police report states.
The suspect is a white male, 20 to 30 years old wearing glasses and a light-colored hooded sweatshirt.
The copper coils were described as similar to air conditioner coils but larger.
The owner of the business, according to the report, has experienced similar thefts from a Dumpster outside the locked area, but nothing similar to the latest break in.
A sport utility vehicle with a distinctively square front end pulled directly up to the gates, the video shows.
"The headlights stayed on long enough for the male to cut the lock. The male then opened the rear window hatch ... The driver was observed struggling to carry the barrel to the passenger side front door but it looked as though the rear seats were down," an officer's narrative describes the video. "After placing the items in the vehicle he began to leave but pulled forward again to put the barrel back and grab a few more items."
In all, it appears the theft took about 10 or 11 minutes from start to finish.
Police have contacted several area scrap metal yards to see if the items were sold in the last two days, with negative results.
Charges of petit larceny are pending in the investigation, which is still underway.

on Facebook
While most of us using Instagram from the iPhone or Android, I personally found it easier to use it from the iPad. First of all, in terms of user experience, it is much more enjoyable to browse pictures from a bigger screen. Let's say you check your Instagram once a day (or a week) but you still don't want to miss any of your friends pictures, it makes more sense to just open your iPad and see more pictures at one glance.
If you don't have an iPad, you can still get a better experience from websites like: http://statigr.am, http://extragr.am, http://web.stagram.com,
http://www.gramfeed.com, and there are plenty more tools to choose from over the net.
But if you do have an iPad, I highly recommend that you use one of these two great apps:
Podgram - Allows people to view, like and comment on photos just like in Instagram. View your own feed, search photos by tags or location, subscribe to tags, share photos on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, and email, or save to Poket for later. You can also easily save photos to your camera roll. What seems like an interesting feature is the ability to print a photo as a postcard, including delivery and billing (using Sincerely) directly from Podgram.
Overall, a useful app that is dead simple to understand.
It still amazes me how the Pinterest layout improves visual content display. Like it or not, it is pretty awesome when other services understand this has proven to be a better way of showcasing visual elements. With this in mind, Pictacular takes Instagram and present it like Pinterest where you can see a larger view of photos with likes and comments. You can do all your Instagram activity same as on the iPhone, with no additional features, just with a real better photo navigation. For example, one thing that bugs me on Instagram today is that you can't browse pictures scrolling left or right. With Pictacular, you can, and I love it.
The only thing that both services don't have (nor I could find a service that does it) is the ability to upload pictures from your iPad to Instagram. It is probably something that Instagram themselves won't allow.

BIstro on Latin Qtr
Tell us what sort of bistros on this site appeal to you; distances in Paris are no barrier.
re: John Talbott
Want to stay in Latin Qtr (walking from Hotel), as for other areas, will be near E. Tower, major site locations, Lourve, Arc, Notre Dame
As for type of bistro no idea as I dont know much about them - would like to sit out, people watch, eat some food, noting too pricey - to get a nice dinner or late lunch - open to local cuisine.
re: belferdad
Hummm, April can still be pretty chancy here about weather; but OK I'll give it a shot even though I have not a clue where your hotel is and I'm not restricting myself to outside/people watching, etc places and I want to annoy the traditionalistes who wish we were back in 1968:
NOT Allard, Bouquinistes, Procope, Darroze, Lipp, Polidor, Roger La Grenouille
Maybe Cameleon, Petite Cour, Le Timbre, Monsieur Le Prince
Definately L'Epigramme, Ferrandaise, Fish, Josephine, Mediterranee (great outside).
There you folks, tear away at my old tired body.
re: belferdad
re: belferdad
Ok, since I'm feeling playful after the PSG win last night, I'll take the people-watching/ terrace bone and run with it. In the Latin Quarter, Au Petit Suisse on the rue Vaugirard/ rue Médicis across from the Luxembourg gardens; Le Rostand on the rue Médicis/ place Rostand/ boulevard St Michel; Café de la Nouvelle Mairie on the rue Fossés Saint-Jacques next to the Panthéon; the very studenty le Petit Café on the rue Descartes/ rue Montagne Sainte-Geneviève; La Bourgogne on the rue Mouffetard next to St Médard church.
In the Louvre area, Le Nemours (but drinks and photo ops only, ok?) on the place Colette/ rue St-Honoré next to the Comédie Française; Café de l'Epoque on the rue Bouloi/ rue Croix des Petits Champs; and, for a good-value lunch (but very small terrace), Bistrot Victoires on the rue Vrillière.
