Glad I had the chance to drop into World of Beer, which sports an outstanding and broad collection of tap and bottled beer. The first time in, I had a Victory Golden Monkey on tap to start, then followed it with a Southern Tier Creme Brulee, both of which were fresh and typically outstanding. The next time in, I had a bottle of Unibroue Trois Pistoles, part of a tremendous collection of Unibroue World of Beer sports.
The tap selection had offerings from Ommegang, Southern Tier, Victory, Founders, Bell's, Avery, Lost Abbey, Cigar City, Clipper City, New Holland, Lagunitas among others. The bottle selection contains several hundred micros domestic and imported, an extremely well represented variety across styles and countries. I found the prices rather reasonable for fine craft beer, and a little cheaper than The Independent, also in Tampa.
The food offerings consist of basic bar food such as hot pretzels (which are good and come with spicy mustard), and other fried foods. This is fine in a pinch, but don't expect so much as burgers here, much less a steak.
Most of the staff are good and attentive. However, I'd be remiss if I did not mention one particularly obnoxious bartender who hastily grabbed the check book after the first round of beers I bought, with the $8 change inside. When I politely asked for the book for my change and in order to leave a tip, she skidded the check book back to me with a "Guess I was too quick for ya'" remark that deprived her of a tip I would otherwise have given. That is, you might come across a grating (if rather comely) bartender amidst an otherwise good staff.
Definitely worth stopping in for some excellent beer, World of Beer is just off the highway. It is tucked back in a plaza and is not as easy to find, by location or sign, as it ought to be. However, once you get there, the tremendous selection is worth the trip.

Atmosphere - A little more quiet than the World of Beer in Dr. Phillips (Orlando), which is a good thing. Same design as most other world of beers, which is again a good thing. Noise level was moderate.
Quality - the quality of the overall experience was pretty good. There was a wide variety of beers to choose from and the service was friendly and prompt. Make sure that you do not come on a College Night as they are the nights when the quality would take a hit due to the number of college kids there.
Service - Very friendly and prompt. Not bad looking either. Always good to have a great beer served to you buy a good looking waitress.
Selection - Same as a Knightly Spirits or the other World of Beer in Orlando. Has all of the common to slightly uncommon beers that you would want. No really rare beers are there though, which would have been nice.
Value - $7 for Lindemans Framboise? A little pricey. Especially since that isn't the best framboise that you can get out there. They do have some other decently priced uncommon beers so that makes up for it though.

I work at this location. I know my product manager does a great job at the draft and bottle selection. He is a hop head like myself, we also order many imperial style beers and we love supporting ccb. Who ever said the service was bad, things have changed, the cocktails are real nice and kinda hot, the bartenders are prompt and know about their product. Food is nothing to get excited about although our chicken dip is pretty good drunk food, we also dont mind you bringing in food from another place to eat. Wed is college night(half off all drafts with student Id) which can get loud and crazy, Mon is Serv. industry night(half off drafts), happy hour is mon-fri from 4-7 which is usually a wit or esb, something light. I will gladly say our strong point is our beer selection.

Although the selection of beer here was incredible, The crew of employees here seems distant to me. This place has nothing special to offer yet at the same time with this review, Im still glad I stopped in. I tasted 4 styles of very hard to find beers over a 2 day period visit and was plesantly suprised by enjoying 3 of the 4.
The food was decent but the atmosphere seemed to lack that comfortable non business like atmosphere. Seems more like a boss and employee meeting bar to me. I'd go back for the selection , but thats all.

WoB in Tampa Palms. Visited for the first time on Friday. Very busy. Very little seating on top of being very busy. All the tables were those little round table that can seat four people maximum. So that kind of sucked. The place looked nice, though. There is seating available on their second floor. but we didn't check it out. Instead we just ordered our beers at the bar and went outside where they have a few more tables. As far as the beer quality and selection I say they do a good job. A fair number or Import bottles, true Imports, like a good number from Belgium, for example and plenty of variety on draft. I think I could very well enjoy this place, but maybe more on a Thursday afternoon or something. I'll give it another go and right another review.

World of Beer, also known as "The Wob", is a great place to enjoy any beer style of your liking. This place delivers a great selection of beers from around the globe. I would say they have about 25-40 beers on tap and another 100-150 in bottles. They serve their beers in the proper glasses and customers are welcomed with superior and friendly service. I have been waited on by a great pair of waitresses that were always at my service as soon as my glass was approaching empty. They have some bar food such as dips and small appetizers but I have never ordered anything. They have an acoustic group that plays on weekends. They play great music but the volume can get extremely loud. Overall, World of Beer is a must when it comes to enjoying a good beer at a cool place. Cheers.

KSP Highway Safety Branch News Release
Sixteen Highway Deaths On Kentucky Roads Last Week (Jan 12 - Jan 18, 2009)
Date of News Release: 01/20/09
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - Preliminary statistics* indicate that sixteen people died in fifteen separate crashes on Kentucky roadways from Monday, January 12 through Sunday, January 18, 2009.
Fifteen of the fatal crashes involved motor vehicles and eight of those victims were not wearing seat belts. Single-vehicle crashes occurred in Bell, Carroll, Jefferson, Logan, Oldham, Pike, Powell, Shelby, Warren (2) and Webster counties. Four of the crashes involved the suspected use of alcohol.
There were two double-fatality crashes during this time period. They occurred in Garrard and Washington counties.
One pedestrian fatality occurred in Bell county.
Through January 18th, preliminary statistics* indicate that 33 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2009. This is 5 fewer than reported for this time period in 2008. Of the 30 motor vehicle fatalities, 17 victims were not wearing seat belts. Three pedestrians have been killed. A total of 9 fatalities have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.

We open again on September 19th.
We open again on September 19th.
We will be opening our fall season at Nybroplan, in central Stockholm, on September 18-21, with a monumental outdoor installation by Katharina Grosse (b. 1961, Germany). Grosse paints directly on architecture, objects, and canvas. The new work will later be moved to Frihamnen as part of our fall exhibition, which brings together works by Katharina Grosse, Sol LeWitt and Walter De Maria. We will open our doors at Frihamnen on September 19!
This fall, Magasin 3 will be bringing together works by Katharina Grosse, Sol LeWitt and Walter De Maria, all of whom have had major exhibitions at the museum since its inception in 1987. Grosse's expressive and abstract painting will meet works by the masters of minimalism and conceptual art. The exhibition traces a particular trajectory through art history, whilst it actively relates to the history of Magasin 3. Sol LeWitt (1928-2007, USA) exhibited his first wall drawing in 1968, introducing an approach that would change the way we understand art today. Around the same time, Walter De Maria (1935-2013, USA) showed the first version of his work consisting of stainless steel rods, which led to a series of powerful, often monumental installations. Ten years ago, Katharina Grosse (b. 1961, Germany), painted directly onto the walls, ceilings and floors of Magasin 3, transforming the exhibition space into a painting that visitors could enter and move around in. For the fall exhibition, she is working on an installation that references her site-specific painting from 2004. Grosse will also be creating a new and monumental outdoor installation specifically for Magasin 3.
The spring's major exhibition, I'm Still Here, will feature artworks taken exclusively from the Magasin 3 collection. The selected works illuminate different aspects of what it means to be human. Mirroring the complexity of the human experience, the exhibition is a fragmentary compilation of traits, behavioral patterns and driving forces that radiate through the artworks encountered. Presenting sculpture, painting, photography and film works by twenty Swedish and international artists, the exhibition includes artworks being shown for the first time at Magasin 3. The exhibition will also see the return of a number of artworks specifically produced for Magasin 3, such as Pipilotti Rist's monumental Gravity, be my friend, and major works by Christian Boltanski, John Bock and Sofia Hultén.
Read more
Magasin 3 will present some seventy drawings from its unique collection. Works on paper are often uncensored and seldom reworked—capturing the spontaneous and direct expression of the artist. The exhibition will feature a wide range of work dating from the mid-1800s to drawings completed just a few weeks ago. Visitors will have the opportunity to sit down in the exhibition space and contemplate the visual reality, just like in old-fashioned "drawing rooms."

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Authorities say Ohio prisons cut more than $26 million from inmate medical expenses last year.
That's according to a new report from the Correctional Institution Inspection Committee released Wednesday. It shows a 15.2% reduction in prison medical expenses last year.
The Columbus Dispatch reports that a $2 inmate co-pay, mail-order drugs, requiring prisoners to buy their own aspirin, and other measures allowed the savings.
The state paid $188.3 million for prison medical expenses last year, compared with 211.5 million in 2011, and $222.8 million in 2010.
The report also showed that the number of inmate patient visits to nurses and doctors dropped by 25% last year from 2009.

PASADENA (CNS) – The fourth defendant to be charged in the Jan. 15 shooting death of a 21-year-old man in Pasadena made his initial court appearance yesterday, but his arraignment was postponed for a week.
John Michael Piepoli II, 19, is charged with one count each of murder, second-degree robbery and conspiracy to commit a crime in the slaying of Zane Goldstein.
Also charged with the same counts are Peter Parra, 35, Kevin Jessie Cabrera, 25, and Raymond Frank Conchas, 23.
The murder charge includes the special circumstance allegation of murder during the commission of a robbery, which makes the defendants eligible for the death penalty if convicted. The District Attorney's Office will decide in the months ahead whether to pursue capital punishment.
All four men are being held without bail while awaiting arraignment Feb. 7.
The criminal complaint alleges that Conchas told Piepoli and another person that he wanted to rob Goldstein and ordered them to set up a drug deal, and that Conchas then sent a text message to the victim to arrange a meeting place for the drug deal.
Prosecutors allege that Cabrera met the victim and lured him into an alleyway off Holliston Street and that Parra and Conchas pursued him to the area of Chester and Maple streets, where Parra allegedly shot Goldstein once in the head.
Conchas' sister, Ruby Yvette Conchas, 20, is charged with being an accessory after the fact. She pleaded not guilty and is awaiting a hearing Feb. 7 to determine if there is enough evidence to require her to stand trial.
Criminal charges against a teenage boy who was also arrested are under review by the District Attorney's Office, according to Pasadena police.

Point: As I write this Justin Smoak has a .wOBA of .341, higher than Kendrys Morales (.339), a player the majority of the fanbase seems intent on attempting to retain past this year.
Counterpoint: In 1660 PA in the major leagues Justin Smoak has been worth 0.3 fWAR.
Pro: Since May 1st Justin Smoak is sporting a .275/.383/.486 triple slash line.
Con: In the first 33 games of 2011 Justin Smoak hit .315/.413/.576 and finished the season at .234/.323/.396.
Hooray: Justin Smoak has seen a more than 4% uptick in his walk rate from last year (9.2% to 13.4%) and his pitch recognition appears, at least to this layman, improved.
Nay: Justin Smoak, while certainly not incapable of a leap in ability at 26 would definitely fall in the "late bloomer" bucket if he is indeed figuring things out. In fact he is a scant 8 months younger than fellow former Rangers' 1st basemen/current MVP frontrunner Chris Davis.
With Smoak the conversation is often influenced by his pedigree (11th overall draft pick in 2008) and being the centerpiece for Cliff Flippin' Lee back in 2010. He has teased with glimpses of being a star but never sustained it longer than 40 games are so. But, as we find him bedeviling yet again I am intrigued to know the opinion of you, faithful, smart and beautiful reader of Lookout Landing. Please vote in the below poll:

It's a wild game early on in Denver.
After Trindon Holliday returned the first punt of the game for a 90-yard touchdown to give the Broncos a 7-0 lead over the Ravens in their divisional playoff matchup, Baltimore quickly got on the board twice to take the lead. First, Joe Flacco hit Torrey Smith for a 59-yard touchdown, and then Corey Graham intercepted Peyton Manning and returned it 39 yards to give the Ravens a 14-7 lead.
There was no shortage of exciting plays in the first five minutes of the game. Yes, that all happened in the first 5:11 of the game.
Manning quickly made up for the early mistake by driving Denver 74 yards down the field and hitting Brandon Stokley for a 15-yard touchdown to tie the game at 14-14. That remains the score as the first quarter comes to an end.
What do they have left in store for the next three quarters?

The Carolina Panthers will face the winner of this afternoon's game between the 49ers and Packers.
It's a good thing the Panthers have home field advantage, because the idea of playing in freezing temperatures isn't so fun. Meteorologists are hoping it will rise to 5-degrees by kickoff, with wind chills reportedly soaring to -30 in Wisconsin. The grass is as brown as dirt, players will be forced to try and avoid frostbite while playing in the most important game of the season.
Pregame discussion: Which team would you prefer to see in the NFL divisional round? I'm going with Green Bay. I know the Panthers beat San Francisco before, but it was a one-point win and the 49ers didn't have Vernon Davis or Michael Crabtree. The Packers defense is suspect enough that I think Carolina could score some much-needed points, because it's going to take more than 10 against the 49ers now.

Happy Birthday, Bukowski: On Going All The Wayby Maria Popova
"It's the only good fight there is."
Charles Bukowski — beloved poet and novelist, grim prophet of love, champion-voice of the 99% long before they were called that — would have been 92 today.
From his 1975 novel Factotum (public library) comes one of my favorite passages in literature, which lives beautifully outside its immediate context as a timeless and powerful manifesto for living wholeheartedly and living the life of purpose:
If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery — isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.

May 16, 2013Neon TommyWhat is the purpose of music?
Hannah Dexter pauses for a moment to consider the question at hand. Dexter, a junior at the California Institute of the Arts who studies jazz and bass, is resting on a friend's couch after singing in a West African music and dance showcase for the CalArts World Music and Dance Festival, a six-concert spectacle organized by students and faculty.
It's an exhausting gig. Dexter also serves as the assistant producer for the festival, where she's also charged with managing media and keeping track of all the performers so that the week-long festivities can run smoothly. After the first night, her friends bought a case of beer to celebrate the festivities. Instead, she took a nap on their couch.
"Coping," she finally replies.Read more.

Nearly every studio film at the multiplexes this summer will have been created, at least partly, by a computer. The digital origins of some effects will be easy enough to guess: starships and rocket-suited men in flight, giant fighting robots, ancient naval battles. Vastly more of them will be subtle enough to pass by the average moviegoer—casual, dialogue-driven scenes shot in front of green screens and placed into digital streetscapes, or wires and buildings digitally removed.

May 10, 2013Art in America
by William S. Smith
Jack Goldstein's first American museum retrospective, opening this week at New York's Jewish Museum, offers a chance to reevaluate a key artist of the Pictures Generation. Guest curator Philip Kaiser (now director of Cologne's Museum Ludwig), organized "Jack Goldstein x 10,000" for the Orange County Museum of Art, Newport Beach, Calif., where the exhibition first opened last June. On view in New York May 10-Sept. 29, the retrospective is an appropriately bicoastal survey for an artist (1945-2003) who came of age during one of the most fertile periods for Conceptualism in Los Angeles before establishing himself as a canonical New York appropriation artist.

Alison Brie, best known as Trudy Campbell from "Mad Men" and Annie Edison from "Community," has never struck us as shy. From showing off her rap skills to writing about hooking up with a gay friend, the 30-year-old actress comes across as incredibly outgoing and comfortable with herself. So we weren't surprised when her conversation with Marc Maron on the WTF podcast turned to the subject of nudity.
In the interview, Brie explains that her college, CalArts, was pretty much clothing-optional ("except the cafeteria") and she had no problem stripping down to make her friends laugh: "I would like put on a pair of tennis shoes and that's it. And then like go run outside," she says. "And like we had a room that was on the first floor of the dorms, so I would like run by our big window and like swing from the tree ... not like attractive nudity."

LOS ANGELES — For four hours, the filmmakers Natasha Subramaniam and Alisa Lapidus constructed a four-tiered dessert out of whipped cream, amaretto cookies, baked meringue and locally sourced edible flowers. "It's a Pavlova meets a croquembouche," Ms. Subramaniam said.
As Ms. Lapidus stacked Frisbee-size discs of meringue atop the ever-growing sweet, Ms. Subramaniam took still shots of each layer, which would be edited together into a stop-motion sequence. Stray crumbs were brushed out of camera range; tweezers were used to pluck errant pea tendrils adorning the sides. The result was a wintry peak festooned with lilacs and pink jasmine, an edible, cream-filled Matterhorn.

The annual Alpert Awards in the Arts give a $75,000 boost to midcareer artists who often aren't well known but have earned respect in their fields.
Among the higher-profile winners of this year's awards, funded by the Herb Alpert Foundation and administered by California Institute of the Arts, is the married theater directing team of Pavol Liska and Kelly Copper, whose Nature Theater of Oklahoma is in fact based in New York City.

Inside a nondescript building in L.A.'s Chinatown, Liz Glynn apologizes for her studio being too clean. She prefers to work in a certain amount of disarray, but an acquisitions committee recently paid a visit, prompting the artist to tidy up the usual mess. Still, there remains ample evidence of previous and future projects spread between her two rooms: a discarded chandelier on the floor, charred ceramic vessels, a box of finished and unfinished bronze rings, books everywhere, and, tacked on the walls, drawings with arrows that Glynn calls maps of her thought processes for potential installations.

In this retrospective of over 145 works, Llyn Foulkes proves himself to be more than worthy of his newfound blue-chip status. Spanning half a century, the chockablock exhibition provides a steady stream of the L.A. artist's trademark melancholy, righteous anger and self-reflective angst. Known for his cantankerous rectitude, Foulkes is a quintessential maverick, daring to promote moral values in an art world and city usually unconcerned with such things.

Robert Nkemdiche's college recruitment came to a dramatic end Wednesday morning -- live on ESPNU.
Wearing a bow tie and his letter jacket, the Grayson High School football star decided to accept a scholarship from the University of Mississippi.
"After much discussion and prayer, I have decided to attend the University of Ole Miss," Nkemdiche announced, while putting on an Ole Miss cap.
Nkemdiche, the No. 1 prospect in the nation, chose Mississippi over LSU and Florida.

Frank Walsh's daughters were raised listening to the colourful tales from his childhood growing up in Waterford in Ireland.
It was his daughter Margo who persuaded her father to record his memories on a tape recorder and his youngest daughter Lorretta with the help of her sisters, Margo, Joany, and Theresa decided to write them up as a book.
The result is a warm and entertaining book about a hard working, generous and loving family man.

Katy Perry Talks Divorce On Twitter
[photogallerylink id=71440 align=left]It's been over a week since Russell Brand filed for divorce from [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Katy Perry[/lastfm], but on Saturday she finally broke her silence on the issue, making her own statement to the public via her Twitter page.
She tweeted:
I am so grateful for all the love and support I've had from people around the world. You guys have made my heart happy again.—
Katy Perry (@katyperry) January 08, 2012
and followed up with:
Concerning the gossip, I want to be clear that NO ONE speaks for me. Not a blog, magazine, "close sources" or my family.—
Katy Perry (@katyperry) January 08, 2012
Her soon-to-be ex-husband has not publicly commented since filing for divorce. About a month before the split he told TV host Ellen DeGeneres "I am really happily married."
"I'm married to Katy," he continued. "Perpetually, until death do us part was the pledge. I'm still alive."
Brand filed for divorce on December 30th.
Jimmy Fallon spoofed the couple on his TV show:

The Salem News
---- — PEABODY — Lawyer David Ankeles thought it would aid the City Council if he produced a computer-generated photo of what proposed billboards on Route 1 will look like.
"Is this going to be the content?" asked Councilor Barry Sinewitz, pointing to the photo, which included a billboard showing a dog alongside a pig while the text asks, "Why love one but eat the other? Choose vegetarian."
"No," Ankeles said, as other councilors chuckled, "that's a mock-up."
He then speculated lightly on what might go up on the billboard, "It might be one of those Weight Watchers signs that Councilor (Barry) Osborne will want to put up."
Osborne credits Weight Watchers with helping his dramatic weight loss of nearly 100 pounds.
Sinewitz wasn't mollified by the joke, however, and he wondered if the city should be notified before anything goes up on the billboard. Council President Jim Liacos, though sympathetic, suggested that he was raising the question at the wrong time and in the wrong hearing.
When Ankeles began to offer an idea of how to deal with his concerns, Liacos shot him a look and said, "You're sure you want to get into this? You're winning."
Eventually, two Route 1 billboards won approval. Ankeles' mock-up for the second read "Pretzel Crisps. Perfect for skinny dipping."
The Yearling
It was baseball great Satchel Paige who said, "Don't look back. Something might be gaining on you."
City Councilor Anne Manning-Martin doesn't want human resources director Karen Budrow looking back, so she's suggested expanding her one-year contract to three years.
"To have to look always over your shoulder," Manning-Martin lamented. "Give her time to wrap her arms around this project. ... A one-year term for a position of this magnitude does not seem fair."
The plan is for Budrow to combine the job of personnel on both the school side and city side — in effect filling two jobs with one person. The council formally approved Budrow's hire at a salary of $97,000 last week, up from $87,000.
Mayor Ted Bettencourt seemed to embrace Manning-Martin's idea.
"It would help," he said.
Ear training
So you don't like classical music. Have you ever really listened? Have you given it a chance? Well, if something's been around for hundreds of years, there must be a reason.
Kelley Rae Unger of the Peabody Institute Library thinks there is, and she also believes you might catch on as to why if you give a listen to "Close Encounters With Music," a five-part program starting Dec. 10 at 7 p.m. in the library's acoustically sumptuous Sutton Room. Unger agrees that you need to work a little to understand the music. She calls it "training your ear."
And that's exactly what "Close Encounters" will help you do.
This series not only includes the music but explanations of the music, which comes courtesy of baroque master Arcangelo Corelli and 19th-century flutist Francois Devienne. Performing and explaining will be 21st-century flutist Orlando Cela, violinist Maria Benotti and bassoonist Neil Fairbairn.
Unger is hinting at mystery instruments, as well.

The Week in Art Criticism
As we move into the second half of October, much of the art crowd is off in London for Frieze. Next week, a good portion of it will move to Paris for FIAC, returning to New York as temperatures begin to drop and dealers ready their second shows of the season. Nevertheless, critics have been busy on these shores. In The New York Observer this week, Will Heinrich reviewed Algus Greenson's just-closed "Invitation to the Voyage" and declared that it "could easily pass for a small museum show." Below we offer a quick look at what critics are saying elsewhere. Read More

PRESCOTT, Ariz. (AP) - The Bird Cage Saloon is rising from the ashes on Prescott's historic Whiskey Row and its refurbished distinctive sign is back up to prove it.
The saloon was 1 of several businesses housed in a building that burned down on May 8, 2012.
The Daily Courier reports that the Bird Cage is now being rebuilt five doors south of its old location.
Owners John and Debi Stamm hope to reopen their business by Memorial Day.
The Bird Cage's 200-pound sign shaped like a bird cage was lifted Tuesday to the top of the front wall of the saloon's new home in a stucco and brick building.
The plastic & steel sign needed cleaning as well as new wiring and fluorescent lights.

BOWDOIN COLLEGE GRANT EAST, Maine (NEWS CENTER) --Nestled in the mountains near Greenville, set on 66,000 acres of land, the Appalachian Mountain Club is in its tenth year of hosting the Little Lyford Lodge and Cabins which has catered to outdoor enthusiasts for 139 years.
Built in 1874, this four-season lodging near Greenville, Maine has served as an oasis, providing hiking, wildlife watching, paddling, excellent fly fishing for brook trout, skiing and sporting camps for all of its guests. The Little Lyford Lodge and Cabins also offers to hikers a short walk along the Pleasant River and multiple ponds. For the more experienced outdoorsman, you can also go for the more challenging hikes to Indian Mountain, Gulf Hagas, or even the prestigious Appalachian Trail.
Amy Aloe, was a former genetic counselor who waved goodbye to the administrative medical world and headed off the grid. Now she is the chief cook at Lyford Lodge and Cabins and cooks for up to 40 guests at a time, three meals a day, every day. According to Aloe, her old job did not "nurture her soul the way cooking does." Aloe also makes a Banana Raspberry Cake with Lemon frosting or otherwise known as the best cake Bill Green had ever eaten.
Amy says it is a recipe that is slightly adapted from "Cooking Light" magazine.
So whether it's your love for the outdoor sports, love of food, or you're looking to get off the grid for a little while, the Lyford Lodge and Cabins will provide you with an experience that can only be described as "classic".
Banana Raspberry Cake with Lemon Frosting
1 1/3 C sugar
¼ C of butter, softened
3 large eggs
1 ¾ C all purpose flou
2 tsps baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 C buttermilk (low fat OK)
1 C mashed ripe banana (2 bananas)
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 C (6 oz) cream cheese, chilled
2 Tbsp butter, softened
2 tsps lemon zest (from about 1 lemon)
½ tsp vanilla extract
Dash of salt
2 ½ C powdered sugar. Sifted
3 C fresh raspberries (or thawed frozen)
1) In a large bowl, place sugar and butter, beat at low-medium speed until light, fluffly (about 2 min) Add eggs, one at a time, beat well after each addition
2) Combine flour, baking powder' ½ tsp salt in small bowl.
3) Combine buttermilk, banana, vanilla in another bowl
4) Add flour mixture and buttermilk mixture alternatively to sugar mixture ending with the flour and mixing well after each addition. Pour batter into pans, bake for 25 min or until tops are set and a wooden pick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool pans on racks for 10 minutes, then remove from pans and peel off paper. Let cool completely.
5) Meanwhile, prepare frosting. Combine cream cheese, butter, zest, vanilla and salt in large bowl. Beat with mixer until fluffy, gradually add sugar on low speed until blended.
6) To assemble, place one cake on plate. Top with 1/3 cup frosting and arrange half of raspberries on top. Top with second cake. Frost rest of cake and top with the rest of the berries.
7) Enjoy and think of Lyford!

If the government is really committed to giving teens the SRE that they deserve, then it should recognise that this aspect of sex and relationships - the pleasurable part - is just as important as the potential dangers. There is nothing wrong with young people wanting to watch porn, wanting to sext, and wanting to have sex.
The sharing of self-generated sexually explicit images or videos by mobile phone or online, is now commonplace amongst young people to the point that it is considered 'mundane' whether or not young people engage in it themselves. And it seems that lots do... Now, I know that young people want to experiment and explore their sexuality. And the thrill of taking risks and pushing boundaries is always going to be part of growing up. Frankly we are not going to stop sexting merely by instructing young people not to do it, or by pointing out that explicit under age images are illegal and they risk arrest. But I am deeply concerned that risks are not yet fully understood.
We're concerned at the NSPCC that easy access to hardcore pornography is warping young people's views of what is 'normal' or acceptable sexual behaviour. Adults have a choice about what to watch within the law, but my concern is that the internet is exposing ever younger eyes to things they are just not yet ready to process. They are learning about sex from porn and not from proper respectful relationships. Much of the material is violent and simply vile; it paints a picture of sex as one sided that has no basis in love or respect.

From Tyler ISD:
Three Robert E. Lee High
School juniors received a grant for $500 from Historic Tyler, Inc. to refinish
historical markers in the Tyler area. Lucas Stephens, Christian Rivera and
Martin Retana will organize groups of volunteers to restore 10 historical markers
using the funds.
E. Lee High School Counselor George Ann Reed, who also serves as a Historic
Tyler, Inc. board member, brought the idea for the
project to the International Baccalaureate (IB) students. Lucas, Christian and
Martin decided to team up to take on the task.
In a letter to the Historic Tyler, Inc. Board
of Directors, the students wrote, "Our goal is to start with $500, and, granted
we have success, pursue further investment and further restoration
The students will complete the project as part
of their International Baccalaureate (IB) Creativity, Actions and Service (CAS)
program. The IB Programme prepares students for college by offering a complete
schedule of college level classes that emphasize global understanding
throughout the curriculum. The IB Programme also requires education outside the
classroom through the CAS program. Each IB student plans and participates in a
major project that will impact the community.
"This project keeps our state and national markers
looking fresh and up-to-date for our visitors to enjoy," Ellen Musselman,
Historic Tyler, Inc. board member, said. "This is a great opportunity for the
students to learn about preservation while also doing something that benefits
our community."
The students plan to begin the 10-step
refinishing process on one of the historical markers later this month.

ME: When Liza Minnelli checked herself into the Betty Ford Clinic after a matinee of The Rink, who took over for —
PASSENGER: (Interrupting) Mary Testa!
I was incredibly impressed! First I thought he knew the answer because he had seen this Playbill "Obsessed!" video.
But then he told us that he happened to see The Rink during the two weeks Mary was on for Liza (while Stockard Channing was preparing to take over the role…before the show closed two weeks later!). I will give all cruise details next week!
(Here's information about the 2013 Playbill Broadway on the High Seas Cruise, with Patti LuPone and Howard McGillin performing on board, on a 10-day luxury cruise launching in Stockholm, Sweden.)
Writing about The Rink reminds me of something that happened at Gypsy of the Year that also would have made me pass out as a child. Every year in school I would become obsessed with a show, and in 5th grade it was Chicago. I listened to it all the time, hoping one day I would meet Chita Rivera. Cut to: After Gypsy of the Year, Chita came up to me said, "You've really got it, don't you? Every f***ing word you say is funny!" AH! So amazing! And on that note, peace out!

I have a little news for advice-givers who attended last week's Advice for America conference hosted by the Center for Preventing Hate. They may believe the Somali integration post-2006 here has been a success worthy of national model, but that view is not wholly shared in the Twin Cities.
Near the end of the day-long conference, the Center's executive director, Steve Wessler, asked the predominantly white, social-working audience how many had heard a negative comment about Somalis in the past week. Less than a dozen of the 90 seated there raised their hands.
I hear negative comments every day. Every. Day. It's distressing, but it's real.
I can only guess that these social workers, educators and others working in the public sector do not always hear what I hear on the street because they can be insulated in their programs, focused on their mission, and too many do not — themselves — integrate with the community at-large.
One woman made a point to inform others that although she works with the Somali community, she lives "in another world in Lewiston where the people don't interact with the newcomers." She doesn't socialize with Somalis and doesn't know anyone who does. Just comes to work in the downtown and goes home.
How better to insulate oneself from the more general community of Lewiston? Or never hear what others who do not agree with you may have to share about their experiences?
I was surprised to hear, repeatedly, that this group overwhelmingly believes local businesses have not done enough to help the immigrants, and need to do more. Not a little more. A lot more.
They suggested repeatedly, and with conviction, that local businesses need to consider providing transportation, child care, on-site translation services, and hire immigrants for the fast track to advancement if new Mainers are to be truly welcomed.
Doing all this would require an enormous amount of resources that would be downright impossible for most businesses here, even with massive public support.
Lewiston's two largest businesses, the only ones employing more than 1,000 people, are the nonprofit hospitals. The five next-largest businesses are Bates College, Tambrands, TD Bank, Wal-Mart Distribution Center and Wal-Mart. These businesses, especially the hospitals, are doing much, if not all, of what conference-goers advise.
The rest of the businesses in Lewiston and Auburn employ fewer than 500 employees, most far fewer than that, and it would be a tremendous burden to comply with this advice. Suggesting otherwise is not routed in reality.
Provide transportation? To whom? For anyone without a car, or just an immigrant?
A better recommendation might have been for businesses to make a point to acquaint all those without cars with the cities' public buses and services provided by Western Maine Transportation. Or, maybe simple carpooling.
In one of the morning sessions I attended, I listened to nearly three hours of advice about how Americans can learn to build safe and inclusive communities, without stereotypes, rumor and innuendo. During that conversation the media was attacked for negative coverage, the facts of how the Sun Journal reported the recent car accident at Lewiston High School were incorrectly repeated, and then I was asked to leave because my presence was making at least one member of the group uncomfortable.
See the interesting irony here? While listening to what this group advises for others to develop safe and inclusive communities, I was verbally attacked and asked to leave. That's neither safe nor inclusive.
Outspoken members of this group were uniformly angry that the Sun Journal identified Bilow Farah, the driver charged with driving to endanger and driving without a valid driver's license after striking a 16-year-old student at the school with her car, as a Somali woman in the headline. The Sun Journal did not do that. Any suggestion otherwise is fiction.
Farah was identified, at the end of the story, as having participated in a series by Colby College in Waterville about Somali Bantus who immigrated to Maine from Africa, demonstrating her civic commitment. That's a good thing, right?
Members of the group went on to criticize the report for including the year, make and model of Farah's car, saying it wasn't relevant to the story. These details are included, when we know them, in every accident story of any significance, and this was one was significant. I don't recall ever getting a call of complaint from anyone in that room for publishing the year, make or model of vehicles involved in other accidents in Lewiston or elsewhere, so it was this singular accident seen as a problem.
The Sun Journal was further criticized for publishing Farah's photo, taken when she was booked at the Androscoggin County Jail. Once again, publishing photos of people facing criminal charges is routinely part of reports as a matter of basic information.
In the Farah photo, she was not wearing her traditional headscarf, which had been removed as a matter of jail policy before the photo was taken. A police officer sitting in on this discussion explained that the scarf was removed as a safety measure during the booking process, per jail policy, because of fear of suicide. Not fear of Farah's suicide specifically, but standard operating procedure to prevent such an action in any cell by any inmate at the jail. There was no purposeful effort here to embarrass or target her because of her faith, despite innuendo otherwise.
It was maddening to sit in that room and hear direct and pointed criticism that the media distorts the facts, after hearing how far this group had distorted the facts of the Sun Journal's coverage of the Farah accident.
Hypocritical or just uninformed? I don't know, but it was definitely biased. The very measures being discussed as essential to protect New Mainers were not afforded the hard-working and intensely talented, caring staff here at the Sun Journal.
I saw with great clarity a gap in how this group perceives the climate of acceptance in Lewiston and what that climate actually is in multiple corners of this city, and a real chasm in this group's view of the media and the truth.
There is no question that the Center for Preventing Hate has done and continues to do important, productive and progressive work, and the effort to share Lewiston's experience is admirable and imaginative. But any advice coming out of Lewiston should be viewed as through a kaleidoscope of distorted views.

Lady Bearcats roll through Trailblazers in shutout
Wed. March 27, 2013 at 11:01 p.m. | By Michael Hughes

Hendersonville got all the goals it needed in the first half of Wednesday's soccer win at Dietz Field. Sophomore midfielder Shannon Reeves had a second-half score for good measure as the Lady Bearcats ran past the Asheville Trailblazers, 4-0.
Sophomore forward Tamia Smith scored one goal and had two assists in the match to lead Hendersonville, which moved to 8-1 on the season before next week's spring break.
"I was very pleased with the first half," said Hendersonville coach Freddy Oviedo, who has just two seniors on the team. "In the second half they made some adjustments where we were attacking them."
Sophomore center/midfielder Julia Michels scored first on a left-footed drive at 26:21 of the first half after eluding a Trailblazer defender in the box. Freshman Wesleigh Marshall scored her first varsity goal with 6:56 to go in the period on Smith's first assist.
Smith's second dish came with six minutes to go in the second half on a Reeves kick in close.
"Our girls were kind of comfortable with a 3-0 lead (in the second half)," Oviedo said, "but we still kept the shutout at home. We scored one goal there near the end."
The Trailblazers had only two shots on goal in the match against the Lady Bearcats' swarming defense.
Hendersonville resumes play a week from Monday after taking a week off for Easter vacation.

It's easy to spot the latest sign of change along Biloxi's beachfront. Tuesday, the signs atop the hotel at what used to be Grand Casino Biloxi were changed. By this weekend, Grand Biloxi will disappear, and staffers will officially call the resort Harrah's Gulf Coast.
Darius Rucker is set to perform June 21 to help Harrah's Gulf Coast celebrate the completion of a multi million dollar renovation. The country star's concert will be at the new outdoor pavilion being built along Highway 90, across the street from Harrah's hotel.
Several new restaurants are also heralding a change at the resort from the high end Magnolia House by Chef Kelly English to the popular burger chain Steak n' Shake.

The off-season of college football is usually marked by blockbuster players declaring early for the NFL draft, and more recently, superstar third-year players declaring they will stick around for another year of school. Oregon running back LaMichael James announced today that he will not forgo his remaining college eligibility and enter the 2011 NFL draft. From ESPN's Joe Schad:
Oregon RB LaMichael James announced he will bypass NFL draft and return
James is the most significant player thus far to announce that he will remain in school. With Auburn's Cam Newton and Stanford's Andrew Luck both likely first round draft picks if they declare, James will have the inside track for the 2011 Heisman Trophy.
James is a third-year sophomore with two more years of eligibility for Chip Kelly's Ducks. Had he decided to declare after this season, he was likely to have been picked midway through the second round, according to SB Nation's Mocking the Draft. By sticking around another year, James will have an opportunity to add to his already formidable college career statistics of over 3000 yards and 35 touchdowns. If his production improves in 2011, he could easily be a high first-round draft pick.

POLAND — Thirty-one years after Pvt. Donald Tremblay ignored his officers' orders, drove away from a Marine Corps base in Southern California and returned home to Maine, Elizabeth Tremblay is facing the past.
Elizabeth, 57, formerly known as Donald, was arrested and briefly jailed four months ago on a rare, decades-old charge of desertion. She is now waiting at home in Poland for the Marine Corps to decide whether it will pursue punishment against her.
"I knew they would come looking for me at some point," Tremblay said. "I didn't expect it would take 31 years."
In all this time, there were never any police snooping around, phone calls or even letters, she said.
There was no warning when an Androscoggin County Sheriff's deputy appeared at the door of her mobile home on Sept. 10, 2012. A fugitive-from-justice warrant for Tremblay had just popped up on sheriff's department computers.
The deputy put her in handcuffs and took her to the Androscoggin County Jail, where she was isolated in a holding cell and placed on suicide watch.
"Being in that room, I just started losing it," she said. "I suddenly got claustrophobic. The thought of everything going on 31 years later and of going to Leavenworth prison. I'd lose my cats. My truck. Everything."
Marines mum
It's uncertain why it took the Marines so long to catch up with Tremblay.
Numerous phone calls this week from the Sun Journal to Marine leadership in Quantico, Va., went unanswered. There are no answers, yet, as to why the Marines never tracked down Tremblay when she first left or what suddenly changed after all these years.
Tremblay said she wasn't hiding. She even told her officers where she was going when she left.
"Something happened to the file," she said. "They don't know. It was so far back, none of the personnel are in the military any longer."
But that's only a guess.
"I've been stopped by law enforcement several times, you know, speeding tickets and things like that," she said. She assumed her record was checked. "Nothing happened."
She legally changed her name about 15 years ago, when she began a hormone regimen meant to initiate a sex change.
Then, too, her background would have been checked. She hid nothing. Her driver's license and Social Security card both read "Elizabeth Tremblay." Even her Social Security number stayed the same.
It all makes the sudden arrest more startling.
"It's a very unusual case," said Tim Steigelman, a Navy-educated attorney who teaches at the University of Maine School of Law.
Few cases of desertion have ever dragged on so long, he said. A few Cold War-era fugitives held off capture for decades, but they were the exception.
In Tremblay's case, the Marines may simply be looking for a quiet end, Steigelman said.
Since the arrest, the Marines have made an offer of a general discharge under honorable conditions, Tremblay said. However, it's not certain. She has no lawyer of her own and worries that the offer might disappear before the military discharge form, known as a DD-214, arrives.
"They're going to give me a dishonorable discharge," she said. "I have a feeling that's going to happen."
From Lewiston to San Diego
The Marine Corps was supposed to be a lifesaver for Tremblay.
Donald Tremblay grew up in Lewiston, moved to Auburn as a teenager and attended Edward Little High School until he dropped out. In the mid-1970s, Tremblay moved away to escape a rough crowd.
"I figured by getting out of Maine, I'd be getting out of trouble," she said.
Donald moved around, from Florida to California and Arizona. There were construction jobs and day work, but little else.
"I said, 'I've got to do something," Tremblay said. "I'm going to starve to death."
He picked the Marines because it offered the best challenge. After he took the military's skills test, he was steered toward a job in teletype communications. He signed a written contract and went to boot camp in San Diego.
He turned 25 while there.
"I loved boot camp," Tremblay said. "Boot camp was fun. When I went in there, I was in good shape. When I got out, I was in great shape. I felt great about myself. It was almost like going through rehab."
Then, things went bad.
He was sent to the Marine base at Twelve Palms, Calif,. and waited for his security clearance to begin his communications training. It took months.
"It still bothers me," she said, crying as her voice fell to a whisper. "I wanted my clearance. I wanted to get on with my life."
Finally, just before Christmas, Tremblay learned the orders had changed. The Marines wanted to send him to North Carolina to learn to drive Jeeps and trucks.
"I told them I had a guaranteed contract," she said. "They said that they didn't care, and if I wanted to be discharged, I needed to go to North Carolina.
"So, I told them I was going to Maine, and I was staying in Maine," she said. "If they wanted to find me, call my parents. They didn't say anything. I just did an about face and I left."
He drove away.
"I don't have any regrets because I don't know how else I could have handled it," she said.
Tremblay returned to Lewiston and quickly began using cocaine.
"At that point, I was so depressed and so discouraged," she said. She spent five years on the drug. Around the same time, she began having male partners.
Even as a Marine, Donald had begun to see people differently than most. She remembered walking along a Los Angeles sidewalk and whistling at a pair of girls, only to discover a moment later they were men in women's clothes.
"I started realizing, 'I'm living a life I should not ever have lived," she said. "I'm on the wrong path."
Donald felt like a woman trapped in a man's body.
"I started thinking about my life and why I really didn't want to lift weights and stuff like that," she said.
Slowly, he became Elizabeth.
By the mid-1990s, she was working as a weaver at Bates of Maine in Lewiston when she discovered that her medical insurance would cover hormone therapy. All she had to do was change her name, because the insurance would not supply female hormones to a man.
Fifteen years later, she has shoulder-length hair, a woman's bust and a whispery voice. She has not had surgery to remove and replace her male genitalia.
Maybe one day, she said. Money is tight.
In 2001, she sustained damage to three vertebrae in a car crash, she said. She is now on disability.
She still imagines what her life might have been like if the Marines had given her that communications job. She imagines being well-off, building a retirement fund and buying stereos, cars and motorcycles.
'A good Marine'
For now, though, she just wants to keep her freedom.
Her stay at the Androscoggin County Jail lasted only two and a half days. She worries that it may only be a glimpse of what's to come.
There is no statute of limitation on desertion, and a court-martial followed by prison is still a possibility. The charge is so serious that, when committed during a time of war, the death penalty remains an option.
Tremblay worries that people might dismiss her, without understanding her or her actions.
"People see the gender part, rather than digging deep and seeing who I truly am," she said. "The only thing they have on me is desertion. Other than that, I was a good Marine. I didn't get in trouble or anything."
