Following the un-Fister first for Fister, things got back to normal. There was a quick pop-up from Nick Swisher, and Curtis Granderson struck out. Two quick outs, and everything was as it should be for the Tigers' right-hander.
Then there was two-out magic, such as it is for the 2012 Yankees in the playoffs. Russell Martin lined a single, and Derek Jeter fisted a Fister fastball the fell in front of the fielder for a bloop hit. Ichiro followed with a grounder to short that he beat out in true Ichiro fashion, and that loaded the bases for ...
... Robinson Cano. Which isn't as dramatic as A-Rod. But for the second inning in a row, the Yankees had the bases loaded with two outs. And, like the first time, the batter hit the ball hard. Again, though, it was right at someone. Or a piece of someone:
Cano yelled a naughty word, mostly because he was safe, and if this is August, he's probably enjoying the night off. The Yankees were hosed out of at least a run, and for the second straight inning, they left the bases loaded.

CENTRAL ILLINOIS -- The sounds of the flu season are already ringing in the air, and health experts are warning to take heed, better yet, take control.
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, this is one of the earliest flu seasons in the past decade.
Experts say suspected flu cases have jumped in five southern states, and two people have already died in North Carolina.
In the Heart of Illinois, officials advise anyone six months and older to get a flu shot, especially children, pregnant women, and the elderly.
"One of the misperceptions is you get the flu from the flu shot, and that is not true," said Sara Sparkman, Community Relations manager for the Tazewell County Health Dept. "Another misconception that people have is when they have the flu, it's the stomach flu with the vomiting and diarrhea. The flu that you get the flu shot for is respiratory flu, so it's coughing, sneezing, body aches, fever."
Those symptoms are similar to another highly contagious disease, pertussis or "whooping cough."
Cases of the bacterial infection are skyrocketing in Peoria County.
"The problem is adults don't get really sick with it," said Dr. Mike Gulley, Senior Vice President for Strategic Effectiveness at OSF HealthCare. "It's generally very mild, cold-like symptoms, a very days of cough, and then it subsides. But, during that time, they're able to transmit it to anybody else who lacks the immunity."
Pertussis can spread to both adults and kids through sneezing and coughing and unlike the common cold, the coughs can turn into fits and continue for weeks.
Whooping cough can be fatal for infants, so pregnant moms are among the adults recommended to get vaccinated.
And experts say if you don't feel good, stay at home.
For more information and tips, contact your physician or your local health department.

Brady: Strikers get plaudits, but the defenders deserve them too
9:00am Friday 21st September 2012 in Non-League By Tim Ashton, Sports Editor
Tanners manager Richard Brady admits that his free-scoring strikers are getting all the plaudits, but he says it is at the expense of his solid defenders.
Leatherhead have conceded just three goals in nine games, including just one in the Ryman League Division One South, suggesting the defence is as stingy as the strikeforce – with 16 goals in nine games – is potent.
And it is producing dividends as the Tanners are still in the FA Cup and FA Trophy, and are sitting pretty in fifth in the league.
Brady points to the return of Chris Boulter to full fitness as key, while Jamie Coyle, who has played in Blue Square Premier, Jerry Nnamani from Crystal Palace, Adam Gross and goalkeeper Matt Reed, who have played in the Confernce South, complete a strong defensive line up.
Brady said: "There is a lot of experience across the back line and perhaps more importantly than that they are all good players.
"The back five, including the goalkeeper, have been the players who've done well by keeping clean sheets, but I expect that from them.
"They set themselves high standards and they certainly have been delivering. But the plaudits do generally go to the forwards, although I think the defenders are happy to let the strikers take the limelight."
But the defence will be facing a severe test this weekend when the Tanners travel to Chelmsford City of the Blue Square South in the FA Cup.
Brady said: "We're going to Chelmsford with nothing to lose. They are odds on favourites to turn us over.
"We're actually looking forward to having a game where we're not the favourites. All the pressure is on them, they have a big following, and we're happy to play the underdog.
"It is a role reversal of what we have faced all season where we play teams who park the bus. We won't be doing that, instead we're going there to play a football match and in the FA Cup you never know what might happen."

When last we left the Chase Utley return saga, he was fielding ground balls during batting practice. That was 18 days ago, on May 17.
Time marches on. The Phillies are in last place, although with a winning record and just 3½ games out of first place. They'd clearly love to have their former All-Star second baseman back, presuming he is ready to play.
And now he is going to play! Although, not in an actual league game anywhere:
Utley will begin playing in extended spring games tomorrow.
— Matt Gelb (@magelb) June 3, 2012
It's getting kind of late for extended spring training. Many of the players there will be off to short-season leagues soon. But Chase Utley plugs on, working his way back to the Phillies. Given this time frame, it could still be some time before Utley goes on a minor-league rehab assignment, and even longer before we see him with the major-league Phillies.
For more on the Phillies, please visit The Good Phight and SB Nation Philly.

UNI got a career high 24 points from Seth Tuttle, as the Panthers opened the Missouri Valley Conference basketball season Wednesday night, with an impressive 80-46 victory over the Bradley Braves at the McCleod Center.
UNI bolted to a 14-0 lead over the Braves, who have now lost 7 in a row. The Braves battled back to get within one, but UNI went on a run of 21-5 to break the game open.
Seth Tuttle had 15 points and 9 rebounds in the first half, on route to his career high 24 for the night.
Matt Bohannon hit on 4 of 5 three pointers to score 16 for the Panthers and Wes Washpun added 15.
The Panthers improve to 7-6 on the season. Next up for UNI is undefeated and 8th ranked Wichita State Sunday in Wichita.

|On the banks of yesteryear ... The Monitor -Top
|Monday, March 11, 2013 10:26 AM
General Electric did for the refrigerator what Ford did for the automobile. Believe it or not, in 1922, a Model-T Ford cost about $450 while an electric refrigerator cost $714, putting it out of the reach of most people. In 1927, General Electric changed that with a refrigerator which sold for $215.
This refrigerator was called a "Monitor-Top" because the compressor on top of the unit looked much like the gun turret on the Civil War battleship USS Monitor. That basic design of the GE Monitor-Top refrigerator remained the same from 1927 until 1936 although a 1935 ad showed a new flat top model as well. Also interesting was that models in that ad were advertised as beginning at $77.50. The Great Depression was being felt by everyone.
The Canal Commission Museum has a Monitor-Top which was used by the Pioneer Drug Store to store medical supplies. Pioneer Drugs was owned for many years by the Wahmhoff family and was located at 309 N. Main St. It was in business until the middle 1970s.
The museum is open from 1-3 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday and from 9 a.m. to noon on Thursdays. Visit us to see the Monitor-Top as well as other items from the Pioneer Drug Store.

SAN ANTONIO Tim Duncan's resume includes two league MVP awards, three NBA Finals MVPs and four championships. He showed Monday, though, that he's hardly content.
Coming off a poor performance Sunday in Miami, when he went 3 of 13 from the field, Duncan scored 12 points and grabbed 14 rebounds to help the Spurs to a 113-77 victory in Game 3. Although his final line wasn't overwhelming, Duncan's aggressive play on offense in the first half and defense in the second half helped set a tone that led to him spending the fourth quarter in comfortable fashion – on the bench resting.
"Just because he's a little older doesn't mean he's lost his competitiveness or his professional will to compete," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "That's not going to stop."
Seeking to make up for a game in which he played "awfully" – his own description -- Duncan wasted no time making his presence felt, hitting a running 6-foot jumper 20 seconds into the game. He finished the first half with 10 points on 4-of-8 shooting, never taking a shot further than 8 feet from the basket. By asserting himself inside against the shorter Udonis Haslem, Duncan also helped to free Gary Neal for open outside shots. Neal scored 14 points in the half, hitting 4 of 6 3-pointers.
After a strong offensive showing in the first half, Duncan was content to defer to the Spurs' hot 3-point shooters in the second half -- while setting the tone on defense. On back-to-back possessions, he showed why he earned Second Team All-Defense honors this season.
With 8:50 left, Dwyane Wade faked a shot against Duncan, hoping to draw the big man off his feet. It's the type of ball fake Wade has made throughout his career, repeatedly drawing fouls and earning trips to the free-throw line. But Duncan showed why he's headed for the Hall of Fame – not biting, leading Wade to drop the ball and, after he was the first to touch it again, get called for traveling. On Miami's next possession, Game 3 hero Mario Chalmers drove to basket against the Spurs before Duncan erased the shot. The Duncan made the type of play that wins championships – gathering the ball before it went out of bounds, collecting himself and passing to a teammate. That led to a Danny Green layup attempt – he was fouled and made two free throws – and 59-46 Spurs lead.
"I'm just trying to do whatever I can," Duncan said. "I didn't feel like I have great rhythm right now. I got some shots to fall, a couple of shots, but I'm missing a lot of easy stuff. But the one thing I can do is go out there and try to make some hustle plays."
After going six seasons without reaching the NBA Finals, with the last one ending in a sweep of LeBron James' Cavaliers, Duncan is back on the biggest stage. And make no mistake about it – while Tony Parker is team may be the team's biggest star, the 37-year-old Duncan played a huge role in the team's run. He earned All-NBA First Team honors this season for the 10th time in his career, averaging 17.4 points and 9.6 rebounds.
Heading into the game, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra knew the Spurs would be eager to bounce back from a 19-point loss.
"It's just about trying to have an incredible sense of urgency now as we change venues here in their comfort zone," Spoelstra said. "Can we exceed that level of urgency that they'll have tonight?"
Duncan showed the urgency Spoelstra was talking about. The Heat didn't.

Gage Roads are a bit of a "hit and miss" brewer from all the beers of theirs I've tried, and now they've released a convict... oh boy, this could be so so bad. Almost every "Australian styled" beer I've tried has been a massive disappointment and I believe it is because we have mimicked other beer styles but have not brought anything new to brewing... this same theory applies to our cuisine as well. Maybe, just maybe Gage can pull a rabbit out of their hat.
Poured from a 640ml bottle into a nonic pint.
A: Clear mahogany body with a light off-white lacing - tried to hard pour it and couldn't get head... yes, that was a double entendre.
S: Aroma is nothing like anything I've ever come across in a beer, it has a mixture of: dirt, mango, jackfruit, and a certain woody fragrance I cannot seem to place (like something from a joss stick). It's a dirty aroma for what is expected to be a dirty beer, convicts are after all stereotypically dirty.
T: Rather restrained from what is expected. Its an interesting mix nonetheless of the above, expect the dirt - dirt has no place in a glass of beer. This brew starts out with a burnt, almost bitter-sweet caramel malt base, adds a touch of molasses and mixes in that tropical hop flavour and finishes with a dry above average, we're talking for an Australian beer, bitterness.
M: Medium bodied with a borderline high carbonation.
D: 6 malts and 4 hop types I don't really see. Intriguing brew but not the Australian Ale savour I've been waiting for. That being said as noted at the beginning of this review there isn't really anything out there cuisine-wise that I would consider a true "Australian style", and I believe the two biggest reasons for this is a) Everything unique has been done already, and b) Australia is a relatively young nation in comparison to the rest of the world, give it time yo. Well I'll continue tasting, but who tastes the tastemen?
Food match: A true Australian brew would work well with seafood, not 'fush and chups' as they would say in NZ but real seafood: Barramudi, Kingfish, Tiger Prawns, and Moreton Bay bugs, with the usual accompaniments.

Pours dark brown with a small fading off-white head.
Nose shows some darker malt with toast notes and caramel, along with some soft tropical fruit and grassy hops.
Some more soft toasty malt as a flavour along with booze, some plainn cardboard malt notes, solvent-like booze and a little tropical hops.
Could use a richer body.

Drank from my Duvel tulip
A - Pours a nice clear mahogany colour with a small off white head that retains as a film and laces.
S - Mainly caramel malt and hop profile, a little sickly.
T - Up front some nice hops overshadowed by caramel malts. A little smokeyness with a bitter finish. The alcohol is well hidden. It tastes a little like a low ABV english barley wine.
M - Medium body with medium carbonation and quite smooth.
O - A big improvement on their other brews so far which I largely avoid. I'm not really sure what an Australian Strong Ale is, but it makes it more difficult to critque.

From Danno's. No BB. Priced at 6.95.... A steal.
Pours a deep amber cum copper. One finger head. Fades to film and lace everywhere on swirl.
Powerful aromas of hops, hint of apricot. Malts too, caramels.
Taste is an odd affair. Quite dry and bitter. Serious malt backbone. Caramels almost to the point of vanilla, but I doubt this has seen a barrel!! Dry finish, almost too dry.
Mouthfeel medium bodied, lightly carbonated. Not obviously 7.2% on the palate. Would' be easy to get hammered on this.
Overall, a surprise package from these guys. They do, in fairness make other very solid beers, just not exceptional. This seems to be above those. Good stuff, especially at price point.

A - Poured a fairly dark amberish colour with very little head that disappears quickly. looked very carbonated like a soft drink.
S - Get some strong sweet malts almost candy like along with some caramel and a hint of toffee.
T - Indifferent taste, very bitter with some hops together with subtle caramel malts.
M - Medium body with fairly high carbonation
O - Fairly nicely balanced with the sweet malts and big hoppiness but the bitterness throughout is a little too much for my liking.

The best beer out of these guys in some time - this is definitely inspired by Stone AB, but all Aussie ingredients - including hops! Deep copper, aggressive hops on the nose, but maybe a touch too grassy. Follows through in the flavour, cut in half by a lovely caramel malt backbone. Very dry and bitter on the finish with the hoppiness following through nicely. The rich (but dry) maltiness and aggressive hops work a treat together. If anything maybe not quite enough body for a big 7.2% abv beer. But very enjoyable.

Bottle: solid brown 640mL longneck with a fun and funky craft label.
Appearance: mid-dark amber in colour with light fizzy carbonation. A fluffy head pops up and dissipates to a thin white head. Nothing extra special, to be honest.
Aroma: a very odd aroma - tonnes of earth (I would almost say dirt, really) with a fair dose of bitterness and some light caramel malts. Not sure if it is either really interesting, or really unpleasant - no matter how many times I smell it throughout the session.
Taste: all of the good qualities of the aroma come through without the unusual off-dirt. It is quite bitter, with a backing of indistinguishable malts and some biting hops.
Aftertaste: lingers fairly nicely, and not with the biting bitterness I was expecting. The entire flavour group comes through for some time.
Mouth feel: light to medium in body with a reasonably light but bubbling carbonation.
Overall: an interesting attempt at a strong ale, but I think it basically missed. A good ol' whack of earthen malts and bittering hops, but not that much in the way of discernible flavour. Add a cost of AU$65 a case of 12 x 500mL, and I think I'll skip it.

Interesting sounding new Gage Roads product using 100% Australian malt and hops. An impressive 80 IBU and using a range of interesting hops.
Hazy burnished amber colour with a small off-white head. Poor head retention.
Oddly earthy aroma. Touches of tropical fruit. Light caramel malt. Okay.
Interesting flavour. Surprisingly bitter for a beer by a pseudo-craft brewery. Nice hop character which is earthy and fruity. The malt is there too. It could be more refined but it ain't bad.
Medium body with moderately-high carbonation. Okay.
A decent beer. It isn't going to win an award but it's drinkable and a worth effort.

Springfield, Mass. - December 11, 2008 - Led by juniors Steve Headley and Nikki Hay, the Springfield College men's and women's track and field teams defeated Westfield State tonight in the school's second-ever indoor meet in its new Field House. It was the first scoring meet, however, as the SC men won by a score of 125-60, while the SC women won by a count of 117-71.
Of the 18 events on the men's side, Springfield had a first-place finisher in 14 of them. Just two meets into the early 2008-2009 season, head coach Ken Klatka couldn't be more pleased with his team. With a handful of athletes quite ahead of schedule, it appears as though this season could be one of great promise for the Pride.
Headley finished first in the 55 meter dash with a time of 6.34, the same time he ran in the qualifying run of the NCAA Championships last winter, which he placed fifth in the country.
Nickel Hay took home a pair of victories, with a run of 23.02 in the 200 meters and a 50.56 in the 400. Steve Creamer finished first in the mile in 4:37.01, while Kevin Behlmer was first in the 600 in 1:26.88. Troy French also had a win in the 800 in 2:44.21.
For the Pride's relay's, Tom Brognano, Chris Quetant, Matt Krakowski, and Hay won the 4x200 in 1:35.56, while Oscar Esposito, Matt Glennon, Brognano, and Brandon Wilbur took first in the 4x400 in 3:31.81. Springfield's 4x800 relay was also victorious in 8:33.18.
Emil Occhiboi won the high jump with a mark of 5-09.75, while Matt Pearson set a personal best of 13-06.25 as he won the pole vault (see photo above). In the long jump, Dylan Brock won with a distance of 22-01.50 , an improvement of 1 1/2 feet since last Saturday's meet.
In the weight throw, Nick Hogan won with a toss of 45-09.00, while Hendrick Jean qualified for New England's with a heave of 46-05.25 in the shot put.

MARDEN Cricket Club have been told to leave their ground by the end of this month.
Chairman Nick Ashton said the club are facing the prospect of celebrating their 30th anniversary season outside the village.
GB Liners Marches League administrator Mike Rouse called the news 'another sad blow for village cricket in Herefordshire'.
And Herefordshire Cricket spokesman Ed Price said he was doing his best to find an alternative ground on which Marden could play.
Ashton said: "This will be our 30th anniversary as Marden Cricket Club and it looks like we will no longer have a home ground.
"We have been given notice to vacate ground by the landlord by the end of this month but we will still be going ahead with our anniversary plans to host a touring team from Amsterdam and a black-tie dinner."
Marden have been playing their cricket in the field behind the village's pub, The Volunteer Inn, whose landlord owns the ground.
Ashton said: "We don't think we have done anything wrong to upset the landlord because we held our annual meeting in the pub a few weeks ago – and nothing was mentioned.
"We have had a letter and the landlord will not be renewing the club's annual licence.
"We called a meeting in Hereford to discuss the situation and it was very well supported by Glyn Harrhy, Derrick Jones and Jim Sandford.
"There were 15 to 20 people at the meeting and there is plenty of positivity and enthusiasm. We are looking at options but we might have to play outside the village."
Marches League spokesman Mike Rouse said he hoped that Marden would not follow the same path as the Shobdon.
"Shobdon is a village that has just lost their cricket team and village cricket is the lifeblood of small communities.
"We need village clubs in the Marches League and we don't want to lose Marden Cricket Club.
"The news that Marden have been told to leave their ground is another sad blow for village cricket clubs in Herefordshire.
"Hopefully, we will try to find an alternative venue for Marden to play at."
Herefordshire Cricket spokesman Ed Price said: "We are very much aware of the situation at Marden and are fully supporting the club.
"We are doing our very best to find alternatives places for Marden to play at. They have never had a lease but we have not given up hope that they can reach some sort of agreement with their landlord."
Ashton said that – wherever Marden play their cricket - they will still carry the name and will be running junior coaching
"We have a committed group of players and we will be continuing as Marden even if we have to play away from the village.
"There are running junior sessions at Hereford Academy with an exit route of playing senior cricket for Marden on a Saturday."
Meanwhile, the all-clubs' Marches League meeting has been rescheduled for April 14 at the railway club in Hereford.
The meeting starts at 7.30pm and all clubs must attend and pick up match balls, handbooks and results sheets.

It seems like we missed an opportunity to win this game, so is the 'spirit' and will to win for the 'manager' somehow diminished? Pocchetino needs time to build this rapport that NA clearly had with the players. That is sometimes the difference -- when a player almost 'wills' himself to make that tackle, keep that ball in, score that vital last minute goal? Was that evident?

To many Edmontonians, the High Level Bridge is picture perfect as it is, apostcard-worthy image of Alberta's capital that spans the North Saskatchewan River and serves as a key transportation artery...Comments ()
The free and peaceful society all of us want to live in depends on the ability of ordinary citizens to trust police. The moment even a significant minority think of armed officers of the law as "them", suspect they act in the interests of others, or believe they might be "out to get us", we have begun to walk the path to Ferguson, Missouri.
Two years after a plan was established to monitor and regulate pollution in Alberta, a report released today to the Journal provides a perfect opportunity for the province to get serious about reducing harmful emissions and cleaning up our air. Let's hope it's willing to take it.
Terrorism — and particularly the notion of bringing terrorists to justice — is a relatively new concept in North America. An outraged U.S. government launched its war on terror in the aftermath of Sept. 11, and since 2001, entire agencies and complex surveillance systems have sprung up to hunt down and prosecute threats to national security.
Every weekend, Edmonton's core comes alive in a way that should make us the envy of other Canadian cities. Whether or not it has been consciously planned, our city has become the perfect place to have fun without leaving home.
Russian President Vladimir Putin won't be chowing down on Alberta beef any time soon. His government has responded to sanctions issued over the crisis in Ukraine by banning food imports from several countries, including Canada.
If there was any lingering doubt about the necessity of Alison Redford's resignation as premier and later MLA, it was vaporized Thursday by an astonishingly blunt and unforgiving report by Auditor General Merwan Saher. Redford and members of her staff "used public resources inappropriately," "failed to demonstrate … their travel expenses were necessary and reasonable" and used government aircraft "for personal and partisan purposes."
Hours after Alison Redford announced she was stepping down as MLA for Calgary-Elbow, it became clear the former premier's fall from grace has not yet hit rock bottom. First, Premier Dave Hancock — once one of Redford's most loyal supporters — announced that he would comment on her sudden retirement. And then, with the media amassed for the conference call, he took a surprising sidestep, saying he intends to refer to the RCMP the as-yet unpublished auditor general's report into Redford's travel expenses and use of government planes.
Given the tenor of Alberta politics lately, it is astonishing to learn many of us still prize a handful of politicians over other high-profile folks hailing from Wild Rose Country. Even more surprising: The contest is not even close. When asked by polling firm Insights West to name the Albertan — living or dead — they admired most, late former premiers Ralph Klein and Peter Lougheed came out far ahead of famous musicians, athletes and — sadly for parents everywhere — good old mom and dad.
In the classic comedy film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, a French soldier (as played by John Cleese) hurls insults down at King Arthur and his goofy band of galloping knights seeking to enter a castle. "I fart in your general direction," Cleese yells, delivering one of the most memorable, and undoubtedly juvenile, lines in the movie. Leave it to another Brit to channel that sentiment by sending a roaring toot back across the English Channel, no doubt to gall the Gallic.
As the guns of August 2014 rattle and boom in eastern Ukraine — fired just as they were a century ago by people pretending that attack is an act of self-defence — let's review five lessons that repeated conflicts in the last century have tried to each us about the risks of war. Then let's hope that Vladimir Putin was paying attention from his seat at the back of the class.
A new ad campaign from Tourism Jasper captures the way many people feel about Jasper National Park, a jewel in the Canadian Rockies located 365 kilometres west of Edmonton. "Bring the bear spray. Leave the hairspray," the ad advises, appealing to those who like their national park experience rugged. It ends with the kicker, "Jasper, for adventurers only." With that tag line in mind, it is easy to understand how proposing any kind of change to one of our national parks is a tough sell, particularly if development or private interests enter the equation. The debate over Maligne Tours' proposed redevelopment at the popular and iconic Maligne Lake, once featured on the $5 bill, is no exception.
Canadians have been fed a steady diet of second-hand information about former Guantanamo Bay detainee Omar Khadr for years. His story deserves a recap, for all who have forgotten the 15-year-old boy locked away by Americans in Guantanamo's military prison and — while other western countries repatriated their citizens — left behind by Canada. But which version to tell?
In a 21st-century democracy, certain campaign tools and activities are so de rigueur that their use isn't debatable. Candidates need accurate supporter databases, a strong social media presence and a steady stream of financial contributions to pay for campaign swag, ads and other costs. Then there's the essential groundwork: pressing the flesh, knocking on doors and sitting next to your opponents at forums and speaking opportunities.
If you had been in one of those cold, wet trenches on the Western Front, bracing yourself to go "over the top" into the face of machine-gun fire, how would you want future generations to honour your potential death? Well, having spent a lot of time between attacks listening to cries for help from No Man's Land, you'd probably not be satisfied with occasional remembrances of your sacrifice.
The summer doldrums may seem like an odd time to be thinking about the next provincial budget, given that it is almost eight months until Alberta's finance minister will stand in the legislature to deliver the next annual spending and revenue plan. But now, before the budget is carved in stone, is exactly when Edmonton and its MLAs ought to aggressively make the case for the capital's needs.

Now a modern port city, Split's Old Town center remains charming. The center grew up around the Emperor Diocletian's vast Roman palace, which remains one of the largest and best-preserved from the Roman period. Visit the medieval Brace Radica Square in the southwest corner of the palace: Its tall Marina Tower, built by the Venetians in the second half of the 15th century, is all that remains of the imposing castle. When you're ready for a rest, head to Split's Riva promenade to sip coffee, grab an ice cream and enjoy the view.
Today is yours to further explore Split or take a day trip to explore one of the many other Dalmatian Islands such as Korcula—thought to be the birthplace of Marco Polo. You may also opt to visit Plitvice Lakes National Park, which was granted UNESCO World Heritage status in 1979. The beauty of the National Park lies in its 16 lakes, inter-connected by a series of waterfalls, and set in deep woodland.
After breakfast*, transfer to the Split airport for your departing flight. Please ensure that you are ready in the hotel reception area at the designated time**. VBT recommends you check the time of your transfer with your Trip Leaders during the week. The transfer is prearranged and prepaid.

Classic Comics Cavalcade: Donald Duck: "Christmas on Bear Mountain"A column article, Classic Comics Cavalcade by: Jason Sacks
The more I stare at Carl Bark's Duck comics the more I understand their brilliance.
You might remember my last review of a Carl Barks Ducks collection where I started to see his genius; with the latest collection from Fantagraphics, "Christmas on Bear Mountain", I'm really beginning to see the light. The metaphorical clouds are opening above my head and the light of Barks's virtuosity is shining on me more and more.
The thing is, Barks's work is understated. It's contained. It's all about smartly designed panels filled with wonderful energy and artfulness. The genius of Carl Barks is all about subtle facial expressions and simple scene setting, about delightfully vivid characters and thoughtfully brilliant adventures. If you read Barks quickly you get the joy, the energy and the wonderful personalities. But the longer you take to move through Barks's stores, the more you notice the man behind the curtain and appreciate the decisions that he makes that bring his world alive and the graceful approach he takes in sharing it with readers.
And though there are a few moments and scenes in "Christmas in Bear Mountain" that might rankle some modern readers – not surprising in a book that reprints comics from 1947 – most of this book is a timeless treasure.
For one thing, it includes the first appearance of Uncle Scrooge, in the magnificent title tale, and Scrooge earns his Dickensian appellation in the story. "Everybody hates me and I hate everybody", Scrooge mutters…
…and then sets about trying to sabotage the holiday for Donald and the nephews unless Donald can show some courage. What Scrooge doesn't know is that Donald has been dealing with a bear cub running around his tiny cabin…
This being a Disney comic everything works out well - Donald and the boys receive nice gifts for being brave - but it's weird and surprising to have Scrooge be so different from the kindly and stingy adventurer he would become in later stories.
This collection is bookended with Christmas stories. The final piece in this book, "Three Good Little Ducks" is equally madcap, telling the tale of how Huey, Duey and Louie, afraid that Santa (a.k.a. Donald Duck) won't bring them presents because of all the pranks that they play, try to treat Donald well. Of course, the good deeds backfire badly:
Again characters aren't quite right here; the resourceful nephews will move beyond these pranks and become really magnificent and imaginative characters in future stories (and there is a hint of that in the fear that they feel for treating Donald so poorly). It's satisfying but not as satisfying as it could be.
One thing that reminds me of stories to come is the adventure yarns that Barks created in 1947. "Adventure Down Under" is a completely charming and fun tale about a vacation that Donald and his nephews take to Australia. Through the usual Barksian circumstances, the ducks find themselves hunting kangaroos, especially Mournful Mary, a 'roo whose heart is broken because her baby has been killed.
Typical of Barks, madcap events ensue; also typical of Barks, there's an inherent sweetness to this tale, a somewhat subtle message of acceptance of others that gives his adventure tales their perfect dab of sweetness to give the tale some real heart and get the reader involved in the plight of the characters. It's easy to imagine a young child in 1947 being obsessed with Mournful Mary's life and delighting in the love that she feels for Donald.
Another adventure story in this collection, "Ghost of the Grotto", is the story of Donald and the boys who become involved with a ghost ship and a mysterious kidnapper when they're in the middle of an expedition to mine kelp for an iodine factory. The pretext of the story doesn't matter much, except that it's a charming sort of old-fashioned touch that bespeaks real world concerns in 1947.
The story also involves a very old man in a suit of armor, a very fierce mouse, and a spectacular giant octopus that doesn't like food with too much pepper. "Ghost of the Grotto", is pure delight, especially with its unpredictable plot in which one event tumbles unexpectedly after the next.
The final adventure strip in this collection was more problematic for me. "Volcano Valley" starts well, with Donald accidentally buying a military surplus plane for $3 and flying to the strange country of Volcanovia, but the 30-pager becomes tedious and vaguely racist early on, as Donald discovers that all the people in the South American country are lazy layabouts who are always taking siestas.
Filled with contrived events (a jail that happens to fall apart in an earthquake and that spares Donald and the nephews) and a weird setting, this is the weakest piece in the book. It's still pretty wonderful, but for a change the negatives outweigh the positives in a Barks story.
But the rest of the book is as charming as you want Carl Barks to be. Look at the madcap energy in this page from "Fireman Donald":
That image of "naked Donald" in the final panel makes me laugh because I've sometimes wondered about naked Disney toons (pity me).
Or the intensity of the nephews and the pain of Donald in this page from "Masters of Melody":
And this page from "Donald Mines His Own Business" has a strangely contemporary feel for the late 1940s, with its talk of V2 rockets and other perils:
My favorite strip in the book is "The Waltz King", a story where Donald inexplicably gets amnesia after practicing his dancing to take Daisy to a grand waltz event, and then beats up all the other men who are attending the dance.
These scenes of an abusive Donald, so un-Disneylike and unhomogenized, made me laugh uproariously. This is a Donald that we don't usually see at the theme parks, an unbalanced, borderline psychotic jerk.
"Christmas on Bear Mountain" helps make me more and more a fan of the master cartoonist Barks. Even though this collection is a little bit out of character for the Good Duck Artist, with its occasional vague racism and characters that act slightly strangely, this book is still full of terrific treasures and brilliant storytelling.

Chadron council declines to take position on XL pipeline
The Chadron City Council has decided not to take a formal position on the Keystone XL oil pipeline, whose proposed route crosses the eastern half of Nebraska from north to south.
Nebraska Northwest Development Corporation Executive Director Deb Cottier approached the council Monday night to approve letters supporting the Keystone XL for its economic development impact.
But Mayor Karin Fischer says she and the other council members didn't feel they knew enough about the details of the Keystone XL project to take a position pro or con. She also didn't feel Chadron residents had been given any time to make their feelings known on the project.
The request for letters of support to Governor Dave Heineman, the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality, and President Obama came from the Heartland Expressway Association and Ports to Plains Association, which made similar requests of all the Panhandle communities. The Gering city council approved the letters last week.

CATEGORIES Action, Drama, Deals, The Weinstein Co., Newsstand, Weinstein Brothers, Remakes and Sequels, Movies, CinematicalLooking for a The Lord of the Rings of their very own, the Weinstein brothers have acquired the rights to a series of five martial arts novels by Wang Du Lu. Collectively known as the Crane-Iron Pentalogy, the books gained exposure to a world-wide audience (though that audience probably didn't know it at the time) when the fourth in the series was used as the source for Ang Lee's wildly successful Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The planned movies - the most exciting of which will inevitably be Precious Sword, Golden Hairpin - will function as prequels and a sequel to Lee's film.
In addition to crowing about how these upcoming marital arts films are "an opportunity to do something revolutionary" (What that means is anyone's guess - cast Asian actors in Hollywood? Make a movie with the word "hairpin" in the title?), the Weinsteins also announced tentative plans to create a stage version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Yikes. Why do I immediately think of Andrew Lloyd Webber and a completely inappropriate emphasis on visual effects?

Colourful celebration for Eid
9:10am Friday 21st September 2012 in News
BALLOONS and colourful signs filled the inside of a community hall at the annual Muslim celebration of Eid.
Families enjoyed Bollywood dancing, a magician, a bouncy castle and lunch during the party at Rose Hill Children's Centre in The Oval yesterday.
Littlemore mum-of-three Fatma Abdulla, 36, who is chairman of the Oxford Swahili Community, said: "If you have something like this it gives everyone in the community a chance to enjoy the celebration. "It reminds me of back home in Tanzania."
The party marked the end of Ramadan, the traditional Islamic month of fasting and forms part of GreenSquare's Lottery-funded Cultural Food Programme for residents, which encourages culturally diverse groups to cook and eat together.

Banyan Tree Hotels and Resorts honoured with numerous Condé Nast Traveler World Savers Awards
Category: Awards
23 Aug 2010
Singapore– The award-winning publication Condé Nast Traveler in the U.S.A. has named Banyan Tree Hotels and Resorts as a winner of the prestigious 2010 World Savers Awards. Honouring the airlines, cruise lines, resorts, hotel chains and tour operators that are dedicated to saving their communities and the world, Condé Nast Traveler selected Banyan Tree as the overall winner among large hotel chains in the 'Doing It All' category.
Additionally, the brand was also named runner up in the category of 'Health Initiatives' and received honourable mention in the following categories: 'Environmental/Cultural Preservation,' 'Wildlife Conservation' and 'Education Initiatives.' Among large hotel chains, Banyan Tree was recognised as a winner, runner up and honourable mention more often than any other hotel brand.
"We are incredibly honoured and humbled to receive this recognition from Condé Nast Traveler," said Mr. Ho Kwon Ping, Executive Chairman and founder of Banyan Tree. "For the Banyan Tree brand, it is pride in our heritage and a larger concern for the environment that spurs us to focus so intently on corporate social responsibility. Business no longer means realising transactions; businesses must be an agency in transforming society and bringing about meaningful change. With this award, we hope to inspire other companies around the world to take initiative to support and rebuild the environments and communities in which they live."
A dedication to corporate social responsibility has been embedded in Banyan Tree's core values since its founding, allowing the company to be an agent of social and economic development in destinations where it has a presence. The company defines its overall success as a combination of the triple bottom line of economy, society and environment, which helps direct their sustainable development by inspiring associates, guests and partners to take a wider consideration encompassing a long-term view when making business and travel decisions.
World Savers Awards winners will be recognised at the annual Condé Nast Traveler World Savers Congress on October 20, 2010, in Singapore. During which, Mr. Ho will be participating in the Travel Industry Thought Leader panel. His wife and Banyan Tree co-founder, Ms. Claire Chiang – Senior Vice President of Banyan Tree Holdings, and Chairperson of Banyan Tree Global Foundation, which provides in-house corporate social responsibility consultancy services to the company – will be one of the key panelists in the Education and Poverty Relief session.
The Condé Nast Traveler World Savers Awards recognise leadership in social responsibility across five key areas: Poverty Alleviation, Cultural and/or Environmental Preservation, Education Programs, Wildlife Conservation and Health Initiatives. The 2010 winners are featured in the September issue of the magazine, available now on newsstands.

30 Covers, 30 Days 2013: The Finale
And the bell tolls on another great November! 30 Covers, 30 Days was a whopping success: thirty lucky people, out of nearly 5,500, were chosen to have unique covers designed for their synopses. Every morning featured a new and enticing piece of bookish art—from science fiction, to humor, to memoir; each day promised an exciting visual quirk, and offered an inspiration to keep writing.
So, thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who worked so hard to put this project together. Thank you to the gifted and talented designers who feasted on 24 hours of spontaneous creativity and put together thirty of the most beautiful covers I have ever seen.
Thank you to Debbie Millman, for facilitating this project, and for being so fun to work with.
Thank you to everyone who has followed the project throughout the month, talked about the covers in the forums, and liked the posts on our blog.
And, finally, thank you to all of the amazing, imaginative, and daring people who took the time and had the courage to nominate their synopses. If it wasn't for you, there would be no 30 Covers, 30 Days.
The 2013 genre breakdown looked a little like this:

Normal WordPress Themes?
I have a lot of beautiful eye'candy wordpress themes, why buddypress is not compatible with them if most of its individual plugins, or plugins similar to them, can work on wordpress?
The way Buddypress themes are is counter-productive, because it cant support wordpress themes, and I need to learn a new standard just to make my WordPress themes compatible with this?
If I find a plugin for wordpress that only build-up a community and if I get the other plugins, I will get near the same functionalities of buddypress.
SO, I have just one ask. Why complicate if you can simplify?
I just believe that is possible to be different, but without loose compatibility.

Excavations at the prehistoric hunting site of Vretsia-Rhoudias in the Troodos Mountains have confirmed the importance of the Epipalaeolithic campsite with regards to Cyprus' early prehistory, the Department of Antiquities said yesterday.
It still remains unclear whether the site represents a distinct version of the inland Aceramic Neolithic A or another older tradition on the island. But further studies, particularly of the 3000 or so tools found on site, are likely to shed light on the early cultural processes that occurred in the wider area of the Middle East.
The archaeological investigations were conducted by the Department of History and Archaeology of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki after a year's interruption.
The project was carried out over 12 days in November 2013 by a small team of archaeology students, under the direction of Professor Nikolaos Efstratiou.
This aim was to continue the excavation of trenches opened in 2011 and to investigate a larger area by opening new trenches.
More specifically, the team attempted to find the limits and understand the character of the 'stone feature', which is composed of an extensive layer of stones that had been identified during previous excavation seasons in a central location of the site. In addition, investigations focused on confirming the site's impressive stratigraphy, especially its deeper layers which are the most intriguing since they comprise sealed deposits.
Another aim was to collect more material, mainly organic remains which unfortunately are not well-preserved in the specific environment.
This year's results at Vretsia-Rhoudias were summarised as follows:
- The excavation of the two trenches opened during previous seasons was completed, while three new trenches were opened.
- The extent of the 'stone feature' seems to be large and to extend towards the east. Its man-made character is confirmed but its exact use remains unknown although it is covered by a layer rich in lithics which show traces of heavy burning (fragments of stone vessels, raw material, grinders and pounders).
- The deep succession of archaeological layers was confirmed, which reach 1.30 metres in depth. This is one of the deepest deposits of the late Pleistocene and early Holocene on the island of Cyprus and survives very clearly without presenting any areas of disturbance.
- The lithic material collected is useful for dating the microlithic tradition that can be documented mainly in the deeper layers of the site (micro-burins, micro-blades).
- The large quantity of tools collected during the 2013 excavation season (amounting to over 3,000) is expected to help answer the dominant question as to whether the obviously different tradition in lithic technology at the site of Vretsia-Rhoudias compared to that of other sites such as Akrotiri-Aetokremnos, Agia Varvara-Aetokremnos and Agios Tychonas-Klimonas, is the result of a long, local, inland development (perhaps even of the Pleistocene) or whether it simply fills in the 'gap' in our knowledge of the island's prehistory (first half of the 10th millennium BC).
- Amongst the moveable finds were large stone tools (grinders, pounders), fragments of possible stone vessels and a small number of stone beads.
