Krautrock star at charity concert
12:00pm Tuesday 13th November 2012 in Oxford
A KRAUTROCK legend helped city stars rock out for the homeless at a charity festival.
Damo Suzuki – former singer with 1970s Krautrock heroes Can – headlined the Audiosonic event at the Jericho Tavern on Saturday.
The sold-out event, which is in its 12th year, raised £2,000 for homeless charity Shelter.
The 200-capacity show of 10 acts included city bands Message To Bears, Gunning For Tamar and Listing Ships and US folk rock act Arbouretum.
Organiser Stuart Fowkes said the Can star's improvised set – featuring five drummers and two keyboardists – suited the diverse bill.
He said: "It was great. The general consensus was it is the best we have done for three or four years, it had sold out by quite early in the day."
Organisers have also released a download-only album of 40 tracks for the charity.
Music For A Good Home Two includes exclusive tracks by Wire and Ride as well as local acts and is available at audioscope.co.uk

All of its work is with those in temporary accommodation, like its latest Christmas campaign 75000 of our children will wake up homeless this Christmas, while in B&B, and other temporary accommodation... And although this is less than an ideal way for kids to grow up,,, is it really homelessness?
And like I've said so many time before the only 'homeless' getting aid in the UK are already housed

Live this shirt I have seven of these shirts in different colors and patterns and I definitely plan on getting more. You can wear this shirt to work in an office setting or out for fun. I'm completely obsessed with this shirt. August 16, 2014
There is a Secret Trick The trick is to cuff and button the sleeves before putting the shirt on. lol Anyway, as you can see by my username, I am a fan of any Portofino shirt. Like many other customers, I ordered four of these and Brocade Blue is my favorite color (it's like, a deep turquoise). I don't really like the cuffed look in general, and prefer to wear it with the sleeves down; but, perhaps I will cuff it once in a while for versatility purposes. I am obsessed with the sleeveless shirts for the summer! Express, please make more sleeveless in the black color in a large size. Thank you! August 14, 2014
The Best!!!! I think I own just about every color of this shirt (or will by the end of this month). If you are on the fence about buying the shirt, just buy it! This shirt is perfect for almost every occasion short of using it as a pajama shirt! In all seriousness, I cannot help but love this shirt. It is perfect for work and casual settings. Looks sexy with a pencil skirt, dress slacks, jeans, you name it! The quality is exceptional and the style is timeless. I know these are shirts I will wear for years to come and they won't go out of style. They are also perfect for all types of weather. I will say it again; BUY THIS SHIRT! August 14, 2014
Underwhelmed I really wanted to like this shirt. It had so many good reviews, but I just wanted to add my 2 cents. The material felt cheap, and the sleeves were difficult to manage. When they were rolled up, it felt like they were cutting off the blood flow to my arms (I tried two different sizes, the XS and S, and the S was too big for my frame. Even the S was tight in the arms). The shirt sleeve came unrolled easily, and it's a pain to rebutton it. I'm glad the shirt has worked for so many people, but it didn't work for me. August 13, 2014
A great, fun, and flirty top for any occasion! I love the Portofino top! Every time I see a new color or design for this top come out in stores or online, I have to have it! This shirt is comfortable and although slightly large in sizing, it is still a shirt you can rock to work, wear during the day for a casual outing, or even dress it up with a nice skirt or pants and heels.

It's not the dream four young men had when they came to Greenville - a barren apartment, sleeping on the floor.
"I came out here with high dreams and high hopes," said Leandro Linares. "I come to Greenville, and nothing."
Linares came from Miami to train and be a part of a football team known as the AOD Silverbacks, a team and organization whose intention, according to their website, is to give football players a second chance at getting an athletic scholarship.
Linares admitted his grades weren't good in high school, and he said that affected his prospects when he was trying to pursue a college football scholarship.
Linares said AOD was supposed to be a step towards a college education.
"This guy, Lee Durkin, sent me an email saying about a year after high school and asked me if I still wanted to play football," said Linares. "It just sparked something in me. I wanted to go play football, I have the talent, why not?"
Linares said Durkin was going to give him and more than a dozen others that second chance - but even Durkin himself said that didn't happen.
"That is true, and there's a reason they didn't have any games," said Durkin.
Linares, along with three other Silverbacks players, are the only ones from the team that remain in Greenville. They all said their dream was shattered as the organizers of the team made empty promises - like having a full football team.
"When I first got here, there were only two people here," said Edwin Durassaint, a Miami-area high school grad, who said he arrived late to the initial practices.
The players also said that they were promised games would be happening.
"We paid money, and then [Durkin] still wanted other things paid," said Jadiel Edwards, a Silverback player from Virginia.
On its website, the AOD Silverbacks said it serves as an academic and athletic development program. Durkin acknowledged the organization's "pay-to-play" nature, where team members pay to be a part of the team, and that everything was lined out in the contracts the players signed.
Durkin said the season ultimately had to be canceled because he wasn't getting paid.
"I'm $17,000 in the hole right now for uniforms and college planning services," he said.
But for the young men still in Greenville, they say football is the furthest thing from their minds.
Some are just barely out of high school, are facing eviction from their apartment and have barely anything to eat.
Durkin says he will pay for a bus ticket to get them back home. But they want to stay, at least through the semester. All are students at Greenville Tech and said they don't want to ruin their grades or their financial aid for the future.
"I'm trying to survive, literally survive until Dec. 12 when I finish my classes and go back home," said Linares, who added that focusing on his studies has led to better grades.
Tuesday afternoon, Greenville Police told FOX Carolina that they were investigating the case.
Anyone wishing to help out the players is asked to make donations out to them personally. The apartment complex they live at, The Reserve at Cavalier on Cavalier Drive, said they're organizing a fundraising effort of food and money to keep the young men in the apartment until the end of the semester.

Date: 09/13/2013
Time: 02:07 PM
San Juan County, NM – On the evening of September 13, 2013, flooding occurred in many areas throughout San Juan County, NM. Emergency personnel crews are working together in handling the many incidents this caused. The San Juan County Communications Authority, Fire, EMS, County Road Maintenance, County Management, and San Juan County Sheriff's Office and others are coordinating together as more rain and possible flooding is expected to occur today and possibly tomorrow.
Emergency personnel are asking that people be extremely cautious when traveling throughout San Juan County for the next two days as roads are muddy, and in some cases have debris. Also do not attempt to cross any washes or other severely flooded areas.
If you need to report flooding please do not call 911, you may report it by utilizing the non-emergency dispatch number of 505-334-6622. Please only call 911 in the event of an emergency, not to report general flooding.
Residents throughout the county are asked to prepare for the event of more flooding, as more rain is expected to hit the area today and possibly tomorrow.
Take precaution to make sure you and your loved ones are safe in the event of additional flooding. Several of the area water user associations reported water breaks due to the flooding last night. Many homes were without water this morning as a result. Please take precautions and prepare your home as best you can.
For individuals who need sandbags, they are available at the San Juan County Public Works Department's lower yard (South Oliver, Aztec). These are empty bags, with sand there for individuals to fill. Individuals will need to bring their own shovels and fill their own bags. As the amount of bags is limited, the public is asked to only come by and utilize the bags if they are actually necessary.
As stated, several areas throughout the county have already been affected by the flooding. As a precaution the public is asked to be aware of the following situations:
- New Mexico 550 has debris as a result of the flooding. The debris is located through the 166 to the 168 mile markers. This part of the road was closed for awhile, and should be opening up soon. However if more rain occurs flooding is expected to happen again in this stretch of the road. Please drive with extreme caution when traveling in this area.
- US64 near the 55 mile marker had a large amount of debris and rocks reported in it at approximately 4:00 am this morning.
- The intersection of US64 and NM511 had a very large amount of debris in the road and was only passable with a 4X4 truck until cleaned earlier this morning. This area is an area of concern if it floods again. Please drive with extreme caution when traveling in this area.
- County Road 5290 has sections of the road washed out and missing. Also some animal corrals were washed away as well.
- County Road 5109 has several homes that have been flooded.
- County Road 5099 had several propane tanks floating in the wash; the tanks were leaking propane and smashing together in the rough waters. The tanks had been broken from their foundation by water and were collecting in this area. Fire Crews contained the tanks and stopped the leak of propane.
- County Road 5500 had water flowing over the bridge from the river and made the road impassible for several hours. Deputies blocked the road until safe for travel, no road or bridge damage was reported.
- County Road 3000 between the 8 and 10 mile markers had a very large amount of debris covering the road and is impassible. A large amount of running water was reported in this area. This is expected to occur again if additional rains hit this area. Please use caution and do not cross any running water in this area (CR3000 in the CR3950 area, and CR3950).
- County Road 4990 had 3 locations that are completely washed out and were passable by vehicle. These are handled now – but again, use caution in this area.
- NM173 about the 10 mile marker was also washed out and not passable by motor vehicle. State Road Crews worked on this area around 6:00 am this morning.
- County Road 4599 about the 5 mile marker had the south side of the road washed out and only had a single lane of traffic now.
- County Road 3955/ County Road 3959 were washed out and were impassible. Road Crews worked on this earlier today.
- County Road 5584 the road was washed out and impassable. Road Crews worked on this earlier today.

If laws against burning or desecrating an American flag are to have any value, it must be clear to everyone just what is meant by an American flag to begin with. If its not clear, the laws will be struck down as unconstitutionally vague. Intuitively, it might seem obvious what an American flag is supposed to be, but a closer examination of the issue reveals that its not so obvious and clear after all.
Most self-styled protectors of the American flag tend to seek bans on desecration of the flag generally, but actual cases tend to focus just on burning the flag. Because the concept of desecration has its own ambiguities which are explored elsewhere, well ignore that for the purposes of this article on look instead at just burning the flag.
A typical dictionary definition for flag will read something like A piece of cloth, usually rectangular, of distinctive color and design, used as a symbol, standard, signal, or emblem. An American flag would thus be a rectangular piece of cloth with red and white stripes with a blue field containing fifty white stars in the upper left corner. Anyone burning this would be burning an American flag.
What if we change the composition of the item? What if we have a rectangular piece of paper with red and white stripes plus a blue field containing fifty stars? If I burn that, am I burning an American flag? What if I make it out of wood? What if I create that design with frosting on a cake? Would any of these things qualify as an American flag, such that burning them would be illegal?
What if we change the distinctive coloring slightly, for example by making the stripes grey and reddish-brown. Would a rectangular piece of cloth with grey and reddish-brown stripes plus a blue field containing fifty stars qualify as an American flag? What if we change the design slightly by giving it 45 or even 55 stars. Is it still an American flag? What if the stripes appear as zig-zags instead of straight?
We could even mix and match multiple options from the above: is a piece of paper grey and red stripes, plus a blue field of 48 stars, an American flag which would be illegal to burn? How about a piece of wood with white and reddish-brown zig-zag stripes plus a blue field of 52 silver stars?
None of these items technically qualify as a flag or an American flag, so burning them should be perfectly legal. Such items are, however, clearly designed to represent an American flag. Even if they are technically incorrect in some way, the symbolism is meant to be the same and many would apply bans on burning the American flag to burning the above items, too.
The law isnt much help, either. This was the definition of flag according to Texas law when the Supreme Court heard the Texas v. Johnson flag burning case. Most current state laws which prohibit flag desecration and which also define what a flag is are worded similarly and similarly broadly to this one:
The term flag of the United States as used in this section, shall include any flag, standard colors, ensign, or any picture or representation of either, or of any part or parts of either, made of any substance or represented on any substance, of any size evidently purporting to be either of said flag, standard, color, or ensign of the United States of America, or a picture or a representation of either, upon which shall be shown the colors, the stars and the stripes, in any number of either thereof, or of any part or parts of either, by which the average person seeing the same without deliberation may believe the same to represent the flag, standards, colors, or ensign of the United States of America.
Any picture or representation: burning a photo or drawing of a flag violated the law.
Any part thereof: burning a small swatch of a flag violated the law.
Any number of stars and stripes: burning a 6-striped flag with 10 stars violated the law.
Without deliberation: if the similarity to a normal flag is close enough that a person immediately assumes that it is supposed to be or represent the flag, then burning it violated the law.
Remember that when a flag is old and needs to be disposed of, federal code stipulates that it should be burned rather than thrown in the trash. Would this be covered by a ban on burning the American flag? No, because this action is deemed respectful and therefore respectable. Bans on burning an American flag thus are not meant to protect a piece of cloth from flames, but instead to protect a symbol from being interpreted in certain ways and from being used to communicate certain messages.
This is why laws against flag burning have repeatedly been struck down. Courts recognize that its impermissible to try to insist that there be only one acceptable meaning for the American flag or to ban certain messages for being unpopular and offensive. Self-styled protectors of the flag now seek to amend the Constitution in order to overturn freedom of speech.

Great recipe!
I've made this quite a few times and usually double it. It has just the right amount of heat and is super quick to make.
Ruth Miller...
Thank you! I put off making this because in this household shrimp is rarely served but now it just may become a regular thing. So good.
This is one of the best shrimp recipes that we have had. So easy and tasty. It is a keeper. We sure look forward to having it again.
Incredibly fast with a wonderful blend of creamy, sweet and spicy flavors as well as interesting color and texture. My husband, not a shrimp fan like me, praised this dish without prompting. Give it a try for a quick family meal that is healthy, too. As we begin to face health issues, we thank you for sharing this delightful little recipe!

ANNAPOLIS, Md. — The Maryland House of Delegates gave final approval Wednesday to a package of three bills that increases taxes on some state residents, shifts part of teacher pensions to local governments and undoes the so-called "doomsday budget."
The votes Wednesday afternoon capped the three-day special session called by Gov. Martin O'Malley in order to override more than $500 million in cuts made in a budget passed in early April.
The Senate approved the same three bills Tuesday.
As part of the package, legislators approved by a vote of 86-51 what amounts to a 50-50 split of teacher pension costs with local governments. The split will be phased in over the next four years beginning July 1 with the new budget year.
That bill also includes a doubling of fees for death certificates; increasing the tax on the wholesale cost of so-called "little cigars" to 70 percent of the wholesale costs; and doubles the tax on smokeless tobacco.
Eight Democrats joined all 43 Republicans in the House in voting against the bill that split pension costs.
The House voted 77-60 to approve legislation increasing income taxes on what lawmakers and O'Malley called the top 14 percent of earners in the state. Again, all 43 House Republicans voted against the tax increases and elimination of personal tax exemptions, which are expected to generate $247 million in additional revenues.

Axminster and Hawkchurch projects in grant success
12:40pm Friday 8th February 2013 in News By Adrianne Maslen
COMMUNITY projects in Axminster and Hawkchurch are among those to share funding from the Parishes Together Fund.
Town and parish councils throughout East Devon successfully bid for a total of £20,900 from East Devon District Council and Devon County Council.
The two councils have joined together to contribute £1.01 per elector into the grants scheme.
Among the successful projects were the setting up of a community shop in Hawkchurch, supported by Hawkchurch and Axminster, and a new vehicle for the Ring and Ride service, supported by Axminster, Membury, Musbury and Kilmington.
There is still time for town and parish councils to apply for funding with the deadline on March 1.
If you know of a project that might benefit, contact your local parish council. The funding is available to town and parish councils working together and involving the community to try and solve local issues.
All applications must be submitted jointly from two or more parishes.
The funding could be used for anything from permanent items to events, networks and one-off costs.
To find out more go to eastdevon.gov.uk/parishestogetherfund East Devon District Councillor Ray Bloxham, chairman of the New Homes Bonus Panel which made the decision on the applications, said: "In this time of financial need this is an important fund that we have set up jointly with Devon County Council.
"I was very impressed with the high standard of the projects and felt that they were all important community projects that need support in the current financial climate."
"I would encourage town and parish councils to talk to their neighbours and others throughout the district and apply for this pot of money quickly before the final closing date of 1 March 2013."
Coun John Hart, leader of Devon County Council, said: "I firmly believe decisions should be made as locally as possible to encourage local accountability and I have always advocated more partnership with our district, town and parish colleagues."

Gerald Hill, 60, talked with Patch about the reasons for his departure from Glenview.
Several years ago, because of family circumstances that would take him out-of-state, Hill said he approached the Board in anticipation of parting ways with the district.
"I had originally intended to stay through 68 [years old]," he said. "The board and I decided to instead work on a senior leadership transition, allowing us to bring a new team into the district."
Stay up-to-date on the latest Glenview news: Like us on Facebook!
Hill announced his retirement at an Oct. 3 board meeting, and the same night, current Deputy Superintendent Michael Nicholson was appointed District's 34's newest superintendent, the 7th in the district's 70-year history. He will begin July 1 at a new salary of $205,000.
with more on the way. In part because of this, officials have opted not to fill the deputy superintendent position vacated by Nicholson.
Hill fully vested in Illinois pension
Hill also interviewed for positions in both Massachusetts and Minnesota but ultimately chose West Bloomfield for it's "high performance and high community expectations similar to Glenview," he said.
"In my situation, I'm able to take advantage of retiring from the system and moving to another state," Hill explained. "I didn't want to stop working, but I didn't expect a raise in compensation."
While West Bloomfield's $190,000 salary will mean a pay cut from his current base salary of $270,000 with District 34, when Hill leaves Glenview, he will take with him a pension from 16 years as part of the Illinois Teacher Retirement System. (He previously worked as superintendent of Community Consolidated School District 146 in Tinley Park for eight years.)
According to Hill, the pension became available to him in full last June. When asked the percentage of his salary he would receive each year as part of the pension, Hill told Patch he was uncertain until paperwork was completed.
"Since there is both a cap on the compensation amount used to calculate the retirement annuity, as well as a specific formula used to determine the percentage multiplier, I will not know the amount until TRS does its work," he said. "I don't want to be misleading and give out inaccurate information."
According to the district's annual compensation report, Hill's current package also includes benefits, his pension contribution, a car allowance and an $11,000 bonus.
To Illinois taxpayers not pleased to foot the bill on Hill's partial salary while he moves out-of-state to lead another district, Hill says he is simply working within the parameters of the pension system.
"I have no comment to that," he said. "The teacher retirement system is established legislatively and public employees are mandated to participate."
Hill said he looks forward to his newest role in West Bloomfield but will not soon forget his time with District 34.
"Glenview has been a great opportunity," he said. "I've enjoyed every minute of it. It has been a very professionally rewarding experience."

Dear Editor,
A person can't even go to the public pool for a few hours without having something stolen.
This is exactly what happened Wednesday, July 17. A father and son went to cool off and as they came out to retrieve their bikes and head home, our son's bike was gone.
This saddens me, but it is a reality. People can't be trusted – even in our "small town."
Kudos to the Batesville Police Department. They called us at 10 p.m. Thursday to say the bike was found in Brum Woods.
Gretchen Gutzwiller,

First as we know,there are 4 classes. Don't confuse those in the Queens Suites(1st class) Princess Suites (2nd class) Britannia Club (third class) and then the steerage passengers as all being equal.
The dining venue and quality of food is completely different. Not that the Britannia is bad just compare the grills with a Michelin star restaurant to a greasy spoon.But whether you are in a Queen's suite or down beside the anchor the public space is the same for everyone to enjoy.
The Ship is no longer British registry. I am not fool enough to believe that this is to accommodate people wanting to get married. Think cheaper insurance, not having to pay overtime. Fewer staff but more work, including waiters in dining room.Food quality and variety.
Now you have to pay for the so called venues to eat at in the evening. There was no charge before. Where you used to be able to go upstairs and eat at 3 very distinct areas, Asian, Italian or British in the evening that no longer exists.
The ship is still the same with friendly staff and lots to fill your time. But the theatre shows are the same as previous years and the entertainment in the bars is repetitive.
They are very accommodating to the passengers when we dock putting on buses when needed to take you into the centre of town and back if you do not choose to go on a tour.
Would I sail on the QM2 again, yes I would. I like that it is a liner, the space, the clientele and the overall ambiance of the ship and staff.

CATEGORIES Comedy, Horror, Deals, Newsstand, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Movies, CinematicalI haven't looked at the "funny pages" in years, so I'm not familiar with Mark Tatulli's comic strip Li?. From what I can tell, though, it's a bit like Calvin and Hobbes but instead of a tiger, the kid is friends with macabre figures like the Grim Reaper. And they're not as much part of the boy's imagination. Now that I've looked at a bunch, I'm pretty much hooked. It's definitely not the best strip I've ever read, but considering my old favorites are no longer being produced, Li? is a fair alternative to much of the junk filling the comics section these days. Anyway, because I'm hooked on the strip, which has apparently been around for a year and a half now, I'm also excited about the news that it's being turned into a live-action movie. According to Variety, producer David Kirschner is working with Universal Press Syndicate to bring the boy and his creepy companions to the big screen. It's certainly fitting since Kirschner is the guy who gave us both Fievel Mousekewitz and the Chucky doll. He will be working with Corey Sienega, who he partnered with on Seed of Chucky and the upcoming Martian Child.
The only thing I'm concerned about is the story, and whether or not it could maybe be told without dialogue. See, Li? is a primarily pantomimed strip and it would be most appropriate if the movie were the same. Of course, Hollywood would never go for a silent adaptation. Besides, it's a lot easier for each strip to be dialogue-free, since there's no on-going plot. Not that the movie would necessarily require dialogue, but it could definitely use some. The important thing, however, and this is only if I'm getting the strip correctly based on about 10 examples, is to keep the supernatural friends rather mysterious and/or ambiguous. As far as I can tell, we shouldn't know how or why Li? is pals with them. Also, the dialogue would have to be easily translated into foreign languages, since the strip's speechlessness has allowed it to become a hit overseas. In talking about adapting Li?, Kirschner has mentioned models in The Addams Family and Edward Scissorhands. So, can we assume he's already tried to contact Tim Burton's people (with Sonnenfeld's number on the back-burner)? Also, can we get this in time for a double-feature with the Edward Gorey movie?

Trying to understand legacy support for HTML5 advancements, Doctypes and Syntax
Hi everyone,
I am reading this book for the second time and it is equally as interesting as the first time: http://www.abookapart.com/products/h...-web-designers
What I am wondering about is this:
Browser makers are the ones who decide which markup to support, so for HTML5 it's about supporting anything and everything to make it the easiest on everyone. Rather than discontinuing old coding practices and try to force the change to something "new and better" (which is what XHTML 2 tried to do but failed) the browser makers will do their best to support everything.
I guess this is where my knowledge of who's role does what get's a bit foggy when it comes to HTML advancements, W3C, WHATWG, and the browser makers themselves. I understand that XHTML 1.0 is a "coding practice", or a style of writing code that is a good one. Close all tags, write in lower case, include quotes - it seems like a good way to go.
So when I change my code from <script type="javascript" src="javascript.js"> to just be <script src="javascript.js"> this is now using the new(?) HTML5 syntax, which is simplified and leaner. Good...
How will IE6 render this code? Will it have any problems with it? If it doesn't have problems with it, and this may sound like a silly question, but how come we haven't been using this syntax from the very beginning when IE6 first came out?
Also, when it comes to doctypes... the simplistic HTML5 doctype "<!DOCTYPE html>" works in all browsers too? Again, if it works in all browsers (old and new) then how come we have been using the messy long "XHTML / W3C" doctypes all this time before HTML5?
I am also getting the hunch that HTML5 code syntax is nothing ground breakingly "new", in fact we have already been using it all this time? It's now up to us which coding practices we wish to use and follow through with. So why do we put a new version number on "HTML5", is it to give it the appearance that it's something new?
Also, if we adopt these leaner, more simplified HTML5 coding practices that I mentioned above it break anything when it comes to the older browsers, such as IE6? And if the old browsers already fully support this code practice then how come we haven't been using the leaner, more simplified code to begin with when IE6 first came out? :P
Hope my questions make sense - I'm just trying to wrap my head around how and why the code syntax for HTML version advancements that W3C pushed forth were so confusing in the past, how W3C / WHATWG is rectifying this problem in the future, and how these changes effect the rendering engines when it comes the older browsers.
Thanks!"To make an apple pie from scratch,
you must first create the universe.

Felgall answered most everything and quite well. Some notes:

Browser vendors want to "win" browser wars by following Postel's law: liberal in what they accept (including egregious errors, so long as the browser can muddle through it and figure something out that looks ok), and conservative in what the send out. This means lots of crap and errors don't raise any flags and the world continues turning and multicultural children holds hands and sing Kum Bah Yah and people writing HTML (or munging HTML in something gross like a WYSIWG) never realise there's anything wrong.
So again

Beef Brisket with Cranberry Gravy Recipe
With just a few minutes of hands-on work, this tender beef brisket simmers into a delectable entree. "The meat and gravy are great for sandwiches and leftovers the next day," Noelle LaBrecque relates from Round Rock, Texas.
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 fresh beef brisket (3 pounds), halved
- 1 can (14 ounces) jellied cranberry sauce
- 1/2 cup thawed cranberry juice concentrate
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup cold water
- Place onion in a 5-qt. slow cooker; top with brisket. Combine cranberry sauce and juice concentrate; pour over beef. Cover and cook on low for 5-1/2 to 6 hours or until meat is tender.
- Remove brisket and keep warm. Strain cooking juices, discarding onion; skim fat. Place in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth; gradually stir into the pan. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Thinly slice brisket across the grain; serve with gravy. Yield: 12 servings.
Editor's Note: This is a fresh beef brisket, not corned beef.

Cougars defeat Eagles from outside
PLATTSBURGH — Robb Garrand's game plan could not have been anymore clear — limit Beekmantown's Keegan Ryan from quality chances around the rim.
Despite a 32-point performance from the 6-foot-7-inch center, Garrand's Northeastern Clinton squad relied on outside shooting in a 65-57 win over the Eagles in the Coaches vs. Cancer CVAC Challenge at the Plattsburgh State Field House Saturday.
The Cougars finished with 12 3-point field goals from three respective players.
Tom Bedard, the lone senior on the squad, paced Northeastern Clinton with 24 points, while sophomore Austin Tetreault accumulated 22 on the night.
Garrett Begore reached double-digit figures, finishing with four buckets for 11 points.
"I'm proud of everybody for their hard work," Garrand said. "It's difficult to single someone out, but Harley Tavernia forced (Ryan) to take some difficult shots in the post. Bedard showed great leadership, too."
Junior guard Greg Manney proved to play a pivotal role from outside the perimeter, totaling 14 points, including three 3-point field goals in the final quarter of play.
"Manney hit some big shots down the stretch, but Ryan was the difference," Garrand said. "He's a great role model for student-athletes. His commitment in the weight room during the off-season makes him such a force, not necessarily his height."

Ticonderoga 46, Seton Catholic 40
PLATTSBURGH — Riley Chapman scored 10 points and Mike Graney added eight to lead the Sentinels past the Knights.
The Sentinels led almost all the way, including a 24-18 advantage at the half and a 37-29 edge heading into the fourth.
Seton Catholic got to within a point in the final minutes, but that would be as close as it would get.
Kaden Baugh paced the Knights with 14 points, four assists and five steals, while Nic Favreau added eight points and 11 rebounds, and Keagen Briggs, nine rebounds.
"The kids played hard — it was a good game," said Seton Catholic coach Larry Converse. "We were right there.
"Ticonderoga, however, killed us on the offensive boards."

The Houston Texans have lost two linebackers already this offseason. While Mario Williams left for the immensely-greener pastures (monetarily speaking) of the Buffalo Bills, the Texans opted to trade DeMeco Ryans to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a fourth-round pick and a better position in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft.
The trade will likely work out well for both teams. The Texans receive another pick in a very deep draft, and the Eagles will beef up their defense with a much-needed addition. Bleeding Green Nation relayed some comments from NFL Films analyst Greg Cosell, who very much likes the trade for the Eagles.
I think it will work well because we saw in the last four games last year that the wide 9, which will obviously still be used and is more important as a pass rush concept, that was modified a bit in the last four games. Because Ryans is not a big, physical middle linebacker. He's an instinctive guy, he's a savvy guy, he moves well... so he's not what you'd normally think of for a wide 9. But I think we saw last that its been modified. So I think he'll be very, very effective. He's a quality, starting middle linebacker. You have a proven quantity. You don't have to draft someone and hope.
The Ryans trade fills in one more piece of the puzzle for the Eagles heading into the 2012 season.

Governor Jack Dalrymple applauded the $250 million in income tax relief he signed into law as important legislation that directly benefits North Dakotans who have worked hard to help create our vibrant economy.
"North Dakota's strong economy did not happen overnight. The people and businesses of our state have been working hard for many years to innovate, to build and to create opportunities," Gov. Dalrymple said. "At the same time, the state has worked hard to position itself as a friendly business environment, where hard-working individuals can thrive. This $250 million in income tax relief helps continue those efforts, creating an even brighter future for North Dakota."
Dalrymple highlighted the tax relief in Senate Bill 2156 while speaking at the Fargo-Moorhead West Fargo Chamber's legislative wrap up event in Fargo Tuesday.
Senate Bill 2156 overwhelmingly passed both the House and the Senate providing $200 million in personal income tax relief and $50 million in corporate tax relief. This represents a 20 percent and 12 percent tax cut, respectively. Combined, these reductions in income tax send unprecedented relief directly back to taxpayers.
The total tax relief package passed in the 2013-15 legislative session, including income, property and homestead tax relief, reached more than $1.1 billion.
Property tax relief totaled $850 million this legislative session, including $656 million provided through a new K-12 school funding formula that shifts the largest share of education costs from school districts to the state.
The homestead tax credit, which applies to senior citizens who live on fixed incomes, was more than doubled from $8.8 million to $20 million. The Legislature raised the maximum income limit and the maximum asset limit, including the value of taxpayers' homes, making more North Dakotans eligible for this property tax reduction.
Dalrymple also signed into law an expansion of the homestead tax credit for disabled veterans. The change expands the tax credit program for disabled veterans from $4.2 million to $7.7 million, an 83 percent increase.
Since 2009, Dalrymple has worked with legislators to reduce taxes by nearly $2.4 billion.
