12-Year-Old Racer Takes Checkers in Late Model Feature at Scotland County Speedway
by Brian Neal
Finally, after five straight weeks of rain outs, the Scotland County Speedway in Memphis, MO was able to get a Saturday night weekly race in. When the final checkers fell on the night Steven DeLonjay (UMP Modifieds), Beau Taylor (Stock Cars), Mike Shelton (SportMods), Steve Allen (Hobby Stocks), and Todd Nelson (Hornets) picked up their first wins of the season at the track, while 12-year-old Jake Griffin (ULMA Late Models) claimed his second win of the season.
The first feature of the night was the 10-lap Hornets, with Devin Still and Travis DeMint drawing the front row. DeMint grabbed the lead on the drop of the green flag, with Still and Todd Nelson close behind. The three would go into turn 3 on lap 3 three wide for the lead, with Nelson coming out of turn 4 to grab the top spot. Nelson then pulled away over the final 7 laps, in a caution free race, to pick up the win. DeMint settled for 2nd, Still was 3rd, Darin Smith was 4th, with Josh Kendrick taking home a fifth place finish.
Up next was the 15 lap Hobby Stock feature, with Mike Kincaid and Ben Grove leading the field to the green flag. The first two cautions of the event would come out before lap 1 could be complete, as the first one was for a bad start. On the restart Kincaid lost a driveshaft going into turn 1 to bring the yellow back on. Nick Ulin moved out into the lead on the next restart, with Steve Allen close behind in 2nd. Ulin then held off Allen until lap 4 when he slipped under him to grab the lead. But Ulin wouldn't give up, as he got back by Allen on lap 6 to grab the top spot back. Ulin then held the lead until lap 11 when he spun in turn 4 and collected Derek Kirkland and Tony Teninty to bring out the final yellow of the race. On the restart Allen inherited the top spot and then held on over the final 4 laps to claim his first win of the season at the speedway. Clayton Crump came from 9th to finish in 2nd, Tim Pettibone started 7th and finished in 3rd, Andrew Hustead came from 13th to take home 4th, with Vic Sanders coming home in 5th.
Mike Shelton and Ryan Fullenkamp led the field to the green in the 12 lap SportMod feature, with Shelton jumping out front on lap 1. Shelton then pulled away to lead all 12 laps, in a caution free race, to pick up his first win of the season at the track. Brandon Dale came home in 2nd, Jim Walker was 3rd, Fullenkamp was 4th, with Rusty Sands rounding out the top 5.
The 12 lap ULMA Late Model feature was up next, with Tommy Cordroy and 12 year old Jake Griffin drawing the front row for the event. Griffin would take advantage of his front row starting spot to grab the lead on lap 1 over Cordroy. Griffin then started to pull away from the field when the only caution of the event came out on lap 9, as David Janes spun in turn 1 to bring out the yellow. On the restart Griffin moved back out front and then held on over the final 3 laps to pick up his second win of the season at the speedway. Cordroy settled for 2nd, Justin Jennings was 3rd, Danny Lorton came from 7th to finish in 4th, with Dick Weber coming home in 5th.
Russell Tobias and Brian Clark led the field to the drop of the green in the 15 lap Stock Car feature, with Tobias jumping out front on lap 1. Tobias would hold the lead until lap 2, when he spun in front of the field in turn 3 to bring out the only caution of the event. On the restart Mike Harward grabbed the lead over Derek Kirkland and Clark. Beau Taylor would move past Kirkland for second on lap 7 and then went to work on Harward for the top spot. Harward would hold back Taylor until lap 13 when his left front broke going into turn 1, which caused Taylor to get into him and get him sideways. Taylor would take over the top spot, as Harward fell back to 5th. Taylor then went on to lead the final 2 laps to claim his first win of the season at the track. Kirkland settled for 2nd, Clark was 3rd, Tobias recovered from his lap 1 spin to finish in 4th, with Harward holding on for 5th.
The final feature of the night was the 20 lap UMP Modifieds, with Steve Grotz and Steven DeLonjay drawing the front row. The first two yellows of the event would come out before lap 1, as the first was for debris in turn 1. On the restart Dental Williams would spin coming out of turn 4 to bring the yellow light back on. DeLonjay would jump out into the lead on the next restart, with Grotz close behind. But Grotz would slow to a stop in turn 2 on lap 2 to bring the caution out and end his run up front. On the next restart DeLonjay again moved out front, with David Wietholder, who started 6th, moving into 2nd. DeLonjay would lead all 20 laps, as the last 18 laps ran caution free, to pick up his first win of the season at the speedway. Wietholder held on for 2nd, Vance Wilson came from 12th to finish in 3rd, Danny Crane started 9th and came home in 4th, with Robbie Reed coming from 11th to round out the top 5.

Sweet musty smell to the beer upfront. Deeo dark almost purple color in the pint glass. The head on this beer is not huge but is a murky tan sticky lacing sheen. Sweet malty taste initally followed by a burnt caramel and slight grassy hop finish. Full thickish coating mouth. A little too much sweetness for me to drink more than one of these.

Appearance Very dark, almost black, body with a small head that laced the glass.
Smell Strong chocolate tones with molasses atop a lightly-toasted malt base.
Taste The raw sugars come out more at the tongue. Otherwise, the nose pretty much finds itself at the taste.
Mouthfeel Flat and medium-bodied. This one lacked the fullness of a good porter.
Drinkability Not bad, but not a standout.

Pours brown, nearly black with a creamy 1/8 inch thick lasting head. Aroma is chestnut/strawberry jam. Easy to drink with a medium body category. Tangy aftertaste with a sweet caramel middle. Very jammy. Aromas of English breakfast tea and cinnamon appear as it warms. Balanced hops and malts. Could be a bit larger. Typical Flyingdog, weird yeastiness is present.

A deep dark pint of thick molasses with a thin and fickle khaki to burnt cream head that leaves no lacing. The nose is faint and of dark malt and milk sugar.
The taste starts creamy and smooth and the flavor comes out as it warms in the mouth. This beer is very roasty all the way through with a nutty, smokey character and accasional vanilla notes. Really this is a fairly simple beer that drinks easy with a suprising dryness. My advice is drink this damn-near room temp. It got MUCH better as it warmed.
Mouthfeel is thin and syrupy but I could down a six of these with ease. Not totally sure about this "Scottish Porter" business, tastes like a damn fine dry stout to me but hey, it works as any of the three really.

Poured into pub glass.
A: Pours a clear chestnut color with a two finger pillowy light beige head after an aggressive pour. A thin layer of foam persists after the head dissipates.
S: Notes of light roasted coffee. Some hops. Sweet malts. Not getting a whole lot here.
T: Moderate roasted malt flavors, with a light char in the finish and aftertaste. There's a decent level of bitterness. A bit thin in the flavor department although there are some nice grain notes and very slight hints of dark fruits as it warms. This beer defintely needs to be at the proper serving temperature to get the most out of it. Not robust enough to be my preferred kind of porter. Reminds me in some ways of a brown ale.
M: Light to medium bodied, carbonation is average.
D: A fairly drinkable beer on account of its lack of flaws and undemanding flavor profile. An easy drinking, sessionable brew.
Overall, an easy drinking, sessionable beer, but to me it's somewhat boring and just not holding my interest. I don't dislike it and may even buy it again, but it's a fairly mass appeal brew.

Road Dog Porter...6.0 abv.
A- Pours a coffee dark fluid with a nice carmel color head that stay around for awhile. Leaves nice sticky lacing on the rim of the glass.
S- Smells of malts, light coffee, mild dark fruits. Fresh malts dominate with a musky sence of being.
T-M- Strong malt backbone upfront with a little milky string attached. This is then fallowed by a sweet brown sugar bite with the alcohol warmth to even things out. Smooth as milk feel with slight carbonation to correct the mouthfeel to beer-like qualities...nice.
D- Drinkable as hell... smooth, interesting, and full of flavor. Great.

Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a pint glass.
A: Dark brown at the pour, essentially clear but hard to see through, with minimal head. Slight lacing.
S: Light aromas of coffee, toffee, dark malts.
T&M: Thin of body and heavy carbonation make this something less than smooth. The taste is mostly dry and the malts relatively light for something this dark. The taste was a bit of a surprise, especially given the look and aroma. The finish was also dry but a bit watery.
D: I found the carbonation to be a bit too much, distracting. Flavors overall were light thin. There are much better examples of a porter. Not unpleasant but nothing special.

A 12oz bottle poured into a pint glass. It was a dark brown color with red highlights, and it had a small head. Malt and coffee aroma. Malt, coffee, maybe a little vanilla in the taste. The carbonation made me think a little of root beer, but I still enjoyed this beer.

First, what the hell is a "Scottish Porter"?
A very dark brown beer with a creamy tan lace. Smell is faint, a bit earthy and lacto. Body is sturdy and even with a dextrin malt sweetness and texture, followed by soft caramel and chocolate malt flavours. Faint liquorice way in the back. Finish is earthy.
One of their better beers actually, IMO. Love the "Good Beer. No Shit" slogan on the label.

Pours a beautifully dark blackish, when held to the light you can see ruby through it. Amazing amount of head that reduced down to one finger of lush creamyness. Scent is not that overpowering, light caramel and toastyness. Decent amount of carbination but not too much. First sip is not the intensity that you would imagine for the color, caramel, little bit of smokeyness, little wood. Thin body and nicely drinkable. Finish has coffee and a tiny bit of caramel. Nice and smooth, very drinkable brew. Could handle as a session beer.
I brought a sampler of Flying Dog on a work casino bus trip and kept offering up each beer to the new co-workers my company is merging with. I had alot of so-called "regular beer drinkers" fall into some deep appreciation for this brewery. My one long time friend who drinks, sigh, Natural Ice at her house, actually picked Road Dog as her favorite of the bunch!

Poured a clear, very dark amber/mahogany color with a nice foamy head that retained for a while. Hints of roasted barley on the nose, light grains, hay. Taste is sweet upfront, with an off-putting, sharp metallic mid-taste then ends with a subtle roasty dryness. Rather thin and over carbonated for the style. I've had a lot better.

12 oz. bottle poured into a New Belgium snifter.
A - Rich, thick three-finger head that's a light cream color. Head dissipates slowly with little foam ringing the glass, but finishing with a pillow of thick foam on the surface that doesn't want to dissolve. Deep, dark brown that appears deep ruby red and moderately opaque when held to a light.
S - Roasted malt, caramel, brown sugar. Floral hops push forward as the glass opens up. Flavors are present, but don't really present themselves - you have to work to get them.
T - Burnt toast, a bit of bitter chocolate, and a touch of bittering hops in the finish. Doesn't seem to have much of anything going on on the tongue. Where's the flavor? Hard to experience the taste because of the mouthfeel. Tastes like what you'd get pouring a porter into a glass of water.
M - Surprisingly thin for the appearance. Too much carbonation gives it a tad fizzy feeling that washes away the initial taste. Not much of a finish.
D - The appearance and the nose offered promise. The mouthfeel made experiencing the taste more difficult than it should have been. It's way too thin and watery for a porter. The most charitable thing I can come up with is that this is a porter lite - you could drink a six of these and think you've only had a couple beers because of the lack of substance or taste, which is really surprising with an abv of 6%. A bland disappointment.

Presentation: 12 oz brown long neck with a sacry dog theme artsy label. No freshness date.
Appearance: Dark copperish brown with a light tan lace that has no problem retaining.
Smell: Butterscotch diacetyl, toffee and malt sweetness.
Taste: Toasted malt, caramel/toffee, malt sweetness and light roasted malt are all in the big mixture of flavours. Faint butterscotch and peat smoke in the backround with an evenly proportioned hop bitterness.
Notes: Very tasty ... a well rounded brew that seems to grow on you. A beautiful malty profile that bursts with flavour.

12 oz bottle, no freshness dating. Nice lable art work. Malty nose, maybe a hint of peat. pours a dark maple/ruby/brownish color, with a tan head and leaves some well depeloped lacing behind. notes of caramel, malt and a hint of a cabadgy/cardboard off flavor in the background. Mouthfeel is so so, with soem prickly carbonation on the tongue. Need a smoother and more well developed malt backbone to hit the note. Not a very impressive effort.

2.8/5 rDev -20.5%
The pour is a dark caramel brown-- not opaque, but a nice rich color. The head is a light, dirty cream color, nice and thick with lots of tiny tiny bubbles. The scent is faint-- again, I'm getting caramel, and maybe a dry woody smell.
Mouthfeel isn't great to me. it's a little more bubbly than I like, though it does have a richness and smoothness. Still, not liking the tinglyness of it.
The flavor is... ok. It isn't great, it isn't awful. It's a pretty standard porter. Part of my "meh" reaction is probably just because I generally like darker beers, and a porter is close enough that I end up thinking "nooo, you're SO CLOSE". The biggest issue I have with the taste here is the sour aftertaste. It just keeps lingering. Although... it does make me want to drink more, jsut because the upfront flavor will wide it away for a few seconds. The upfront flavor doesn't really hit on any major taste sensations besides "beer" and "sour", but it does have a bit of weedyness to it.

Poured dark brown / black with some ruby edges and a small and quickly dissipating head that remains as a round lace. Smell is of light chocolate and coffee , some faint dairy and tinge of hop. Taste is of the dark malts , hints of the coffee and bitter chocolate , faintest charcoal aftertaste. Mouthfeel is thin with a dry finish. Very drinkable porter , kind of thin though , could use a bit more flavor Imo. I like their slogan.

July 2003: Happy American Beer Month!
Presentation: 12oz. amber bottle with funky label (good people drink good beer)...no freshness dating.
Appearance: Dark ruby-brown in color. Fizzy off-white head lies nearly dormant atop the beer.
Smell: Aromas of roasted nutty toffee and chocolate sweetness.
Taste: Caramel sweetness mixed with a smoky chocolate bitterness. Finishes rather oddly, with a slightly soured flavor.
Mouthfeel: On the thin side. Pretty fizzy.
Drinkability: Not a very quaffable beer for me. Finished it, but won't come back for it again.

Smell: Mild dark chocolate with a musty earthiness that is nice, but a little subdued.
Taste: Once again, chocolate is predominant, kind of a dark, bittersweet chocolate. A slight smokiness is present, while bitterness is pretty low. No coffee detectable as in many Robust Porters.
Feel: Relatively low carbonation with a medium body that is relatively smooth.
Drinkability: Quite easy to drink as the focus is on semi-dry malt without any major flavor elements (bitterness, sweetness, coffee) to detract. Of course, you could also claim that those major flavor elements could have enhanced it as well. Overall, a very solid Porter I would have again but doesn't truly stand out.

Today's Word of the Day means...
fornication for·ni·ca·tion (fôr'nĭ-kā'shən)
Sexual intercourse between partners who are not married to each other.
in every form of it was sternly condemned by the Mosaic law (Lev. 21:9; 19:29; Deut. 22:20, 21, 23-29; 23:18; Ex. 22:16). (See ADULTERY.) But this word is more frequently used in a symbolical than in its ordinary sense. It frequently means a forsaking of God or a following after idols (Isa. 1:2; Jer. 2:20; Ezek. 16; Hos. 1:2; 2:1-5; Jer. 3:8,9).

big bang for the buck, great for old surplus rifles
Perfect for plinking that big heavy rifle!
Both bipods work well. They were used for bore sighting scopes and for that purpose they were fine.
Disappoionted in the bipod. Mount broke on the larger bipod on first use. Have not used the short bipod
Works great on my .22's.
The bipods are a great value and perform as advertised. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a functional bipod for zeroing or displaying their rifle.

Never Hungover Again
Great review of Roger Miret And The Disasters' latest.
1984 is a package delivering classic oi! punk rock licks. Hearing it is like finding some old record you bought in the 80's and dusting it off to listen to it again (mind you, the mixing and sound quality are much better than that of grubby vinyl). The songs might be a little slower than old style punk, but all the same requisite characteristics are there, even the more stereotypical ones. Some of the song titles are downright cheesy. "Hooligans", "The Boys", and "Riot, Riot, Riot" - these same titles have been used for many other countless punk rock songs. But that doesn't make them any less fun. If Roger Miret is anything, he's a punk rock purist. The classic feel is addictive, and a welcome break from the auditory overload of many recent "punk" albums. The mastering is a little cleaner than we're generally used to hearing in the Oi! Punk genre, but I don't feel it takes away from the overall enjoyment.
The testosterone content in some of the tracks gets almost comical, especially in "I Don't Like You", with the lyrics "Fuck you - I hate you / Fuck off! Fuck you! / ... / I don't give a damn what you think of me / Don't really give a fuck 'cause I don't like you!" I couldn't help but laugh and sing along when this one came on. I have to admit it, I'm a sucker for a good anthem, and this album is full of them. Some songs will evoke images of Rancid, other times, you'd swear it was an intro to a Dropkick Murphys song. But once you hear Roger's signature voice, the songs take on a life of their own. Even the obligatory track in adoration of New York City is good fun. Basically, this album has some quality punk, but definitely nothing revolutionary or ground breaking. But given the influences in this band, they wouldn't have their punk served up any other way.

Congratulations Brooke and best of luck at Alma College in the Fall.
Hannah Frutiger, a starting forward on the TSC 15 Girls Premier team coached by Josh Severns and also a forward on the Franklin High School (FHS) Lady Rebels varsity soccer team, earned the Girl Scouts Gold Award for her volunteer work with soccer teams. Hannah ran a soccer club at Pearre Creek Elementary for 3rd through 5th graders and coached a WCYS team of U11 girls this past Spring 2013 as part of the volunteer work required to earn this award. Hannah has been a member of Girl Scouts for 12 years and is currently a member of Troop 1735. Hannah also helped her varsity high school team to a semifinals placing at the state championship this 2013 season. She played in 24 games, scoring 3 goals and earning 4 assists. Outside of her volunteer work and soccer, she is a member of the Culinary Arts group, has played the flute in the FHS band for 2 years and works as a lifeguard for Silverwater pools during the summer. Hannah would like to play soccer in college and has drawn the interest of several colleges. She plans to major in business.
Abbie Kerr, a starting defender, midfielder and forward for Battle Ground Academy's (BGA) varsity high school team coached by Jan Morrisey, was voted Moody's Tires Athlete of the Week Nov. 4 and name to the All-Region Team following her high school team's performance at the DII-A East/Middle Regional Championship games. Her team defeated the University School 1-0 to claim the Regional Championship title on 10/23/2013. Abbie scored the final goal in the game that helped to propel her team to the regional finals game and has scored a total of 7 goals, earned 3 assists and started in 22 games for her high school team. Abbie played defense with the TSC 16 Girls team coached by Ronnie Brown during the 2012-2013 season (and past seasons), a national level team that has won the state championships four times, the south-east regional championship two times, and has made it to the finals in the national championship tournament. As Abbie is a junior at BGA and will graduate in 2015, Abbie made the decision to play with the TSC 15 Girls Premier team coached by Josh Severns for the 2013-2014 season. Although Abbie has not yet selected her college and is undecided in her major at this time, she is very focused on playing soccer in college and is considering colleges in the Carolinas.

In this week's "Five questions with" segment, former Patriots star and current radio color commentator Gino Cappelletti talked to PFW's Kevin Fishbain about the team's hot start and looking ahead to Week Three against the Bills.
PFW: What have been your early impressions of this offense and how do you compare it to last season?
Cappelletti: Tom Brady has been extremely accurate with his throws. He's having a real great couple games. It might be hard to sustain something like that — the way the Patriots have started offensively has been a real strong showing and a real strong start. Averaging over 35 points a game offensively, they are keeping pace with what they were doing last year. Last year, the defense was a little bit of a problem in that they couldn't get off the field, especially on third down. Perhaps, right now, that might still be a problem, but certainly not in that area, the third-down defense has been pretty good. The defense has been giving up yardage.
PFW: Chad Ochocinco hasn't gotten a whole lot of snaps. What goes into having to learn the Patriots' system as a wide receiver?
Cappelletti: The system that I think is being held by the Patriots through (Bill) Belichick and Brady is that they expect the offensive players to know everybody's assignment, what the play is designed for and what they hope to accomplish on the play. A lot of times there are teams and players that know what they have to do and they hope it blends in with the other guys. By knowing everyone's assignments, you know what adjustment has to be made in a mini-second decision.
PFW: SS Patrick Chung reportedly had surgery on his thumb. What would it mean for the secondary if he can't play on Sunday?
Cappelletti: That could be a pretty big loss. He seems to be the one that's sticking out among the defensive backs at this point. We have some youngsters that don't have the experience that Patrick Chung has. (Devin) McCourty is having a little trouble, but then again, he has the tools. Sergio Brown has been sticking with the team for a good reason. Josh Barrett is a little new in this situation. Leigh Bodden is a veteran who certainly should be playing up to par. Just like the offensive line needs the continuity of each player, the tackles, guards and center working together, the secondary has to use that same rule. The more you play together the better understanding you have of each other, and that's what's missing from the secondary.
PFW: How big of a loss is C Dan Koppen, who was placed on injured reserve?
Cappelletti: One of the most important positions in football is the center. He is the guy that calls out changes, the blocking, if there's a change in the blocking, he calls that out. He is in control of the interior line and that is so important. If you looked around the National Football League in the past, you'll see that centers, somehow, play for 10 years, it seems to have the most longevity of any position. Coaches don't like to make a change at center at all. Controlling that interior line with communication, he has to snap the ball and make a block. It's a very key position. (Dan) Connolly has stepped in nicely, I particularly watched his shotgun snaps, and every one was right into Brady's paws.
PFW: What are some of the things you'll be looking for in the Patriots-Bills game on Sunday?
Cappelletti: I want to find out if the Bills can move the ball well. Miami moved the ball, the Chargers moved the ball, we have to find out if it's because those two teams have potent offenses or else there's a defensive problem. That's going to be the key. I believe the Patriots will still move the ball, although, the Bills' defense has tightened up considerably. I believe that they have to see if the Bills can move the football against their defense. If they can, it could be a close game and a problematic situation. Buffalo has always played good special teams. Those are the areas that I would be concerned with and I look forward to commenting on that during the game because that's what I'll be observing.

The USF men's basketball program can be a success.
The proof is Billy Donovan.
"Bill The Kid" was a 30-year-old unknown when he took over Florida in 1996.
Gators athletic director Jeremy Foley took heat for the hire, but it was mild because the basketball program was irrelevant.
He saw an energy in Donovan that was unparalleled.
Donovan lived up to that hype when he gained national attention walking the halls of Miami High in pursuit of his first big-time recruit, Udonis Haslem.
Donovan looked young enough to fit in with the students and was ridiculed for using an amateurish approach.
He got Haslem in '98, and the Gators made four straight NCAA Tournaments, including the championship game in his sophomore year.
Donovan won back-to-back national titles in 2006 and 2007 and is in this weekend's Final Four.
New USF men's basketball coach Orlando Antigua was at best the school's third choice.
It doesn't matter. He could be the best fit.
Antigua looks like the new "Billy The Kid."
The 41-year-old has similar Kentucky ties and is connected to its head coach, John Calipari, the way Donovan was to Rick Pitino when he coached the Wildcats.
This cannot be taken lightly. Not every elite player can go to Kentucky, and why wouldn't Calipari send some to Antigua, whom he considers a son?
Calipari called USF a sleeping giant, which makes longtime Bulls fans shudder. Seth Greenberg said the same thing when he took over the program in '96. Two coaches later, it is still in deep slumber de
spite a few wake-up calls from recently fired Stan Heath.
This could be the second time USF has benefited from getting a coach it didn't necessarily want.
USF women's basketball coach Jose Fernandez is the other.
The school was mired in its biggest sports scandal in 2000 amid racial discrimination allegations. The ugly scenario resulted in the firing of women's head coach Jerry Ann Winters and subsequent resignation of athletic director Paul Griffin.
Fernandez was a 27-year-old unknown assistant whose only head coaching experience was in high school. He was hired as an interim coach to defuse a volatile situation.
But Fernandez is still there, and the program is flourishing.
He transformed USF women's basketball into a postseason regular, advancing 10 of the past 11 seasons, including two NCAA Tournament berths and a WNIT title.
Antigua shows a lot of the characteristics that make Donovan successful.
You want hungry, desperate type guys to coach your program. He fits that mold.
Antigua was homeless during stretches of his youth. He was shot in the head at 16 and carried the bullet for six years.
He grew up in a tough part of the Bronx, where shooting guns is as normal as shooting baskets.
He was the first Latin to play for the Harlem Globetrotters. You think that was easy? Put yourself in that position.
The Kentucky players say he has an energy level that is hard to match.
Oh, and did we say he is well-connected?
When that pipeline starts with Calipari, you have access to a gold mine of talent.
You can bet Calipari will send him players and as head coach of the Dominican National team, Antigua has a Latin connection that cannot be overstated.
Oh, did we mention? He really graduated from college. There are no eraser marks on his resume.
We heard a copy of his degree will sit atop the Sun Dome.
"He is the most energetic person I ever met," said Kentucky's Marcus Lee.
"I know he'll be a great coach," added Wildcats tournament hero Aaron Harrison.
"USF is a sleeping giant," Calipari said.
Oops, can we forget this line for the time being please?

The old "new" Japanese scams16/03/2011 Written by Boris Mutina (minor.float)
Dear friends, in these days we all turned our minds to Japan, to the Japanese people, some of them are our friends, or some of our friends live in Japan.
We would like to express the condolences to the families which lost their family members. We are deeply concerned about the injuries and losses caused by the earthquake set, tsunami flooding and the nuclear catastrophe.
Nevertheless, we have to express also our anger. We already recorded first set of the scam emails asking the unaware users to donate for the charity, but as usual the money will never come to the victims. The scam scenario is very similar to other scams using donating over PayPal, WU, Moneygram etc…
Another form of the scam is the Facebook clickjacking/likejacking scam with the sick title "Japans Tsunami Sends whale Smashing Into A Building" or similar. While the people are hot for the news from Japan, this and similar scams serve to the viral spreading of the link, some of them also deliver an unsolicited ads. Already many security companies informed about this issue (for example Sophos reported it here).
Such scam websites are also trying to trick the users into entering their data into the fake surveys…
Lastly BBC had to denounce a fake news that panicked the people across the Asia. The news was spread via the SMS but also on the social networks claiming that the Japanese government issued the warning about a possibility of the radioactive rain in Phillipines and Hong Kong. This wannabe joke can act contra productively — if a real warning will be issued, and this can happen every minute, it is possible that some of the affected people will not react because of the previous fake news.
The social engineering techniques used in the above mentioned cases are nothing new, but this is not the right time to play with the human mind.
If you have any comments, send them to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Our reader Reelix sent us a suggestion:
Just an idea!
Get people to submit fake "Help Japan" pages that are currently in use
scamming innocent people, then the community can decide what needs to
be done about them :)
Just a thought.

Salmon find a friend
by John RosapepeEndangered Snake River salmon recently found a northern ally in their battle against Columbia River dams. Republican Gov. Tony Knowles of Alaska announced April 28 that his state had begun legal action to join a lawsuit brought by environmental and fishing groups against the National Marine Fisheries Service. The groups sued the agency this spring after it ruled that Columbia and Snake River dams weren't jeopardizing the survival of wild chinook and sockeye salmon.
The governor said Alaskans are angry at the Fisheries Service for reducing the allowable catch of salmon in southeastern Alaska to lower the risk of catching the endangered fish. He said people in his state find it hard to believe that "penalizing our fishermen, while allowing the Columbia River dams to kill up to 100 percent of all young Snake River fall chinook, is a responsible policy."

Brighton-based restaurant boss banned over food safety fears
6:30pm Thursday 7th February 2013 in News By Emily Walker, Chief reporter
A restaurant boss allowed such poor hygiene in his kitchens that experts said customers were "incredibly lucky" not to have been made ill.
Vincenzo Fuccio, from Brighton, was yesterday (February 6) banned from running any food business after a court was told he had ignored safety warnings for years.
The 43-year-old was running La Vecchia Scuola in York when council officials became concerned about food safety at the restaurant.
York Magistrates' Court was told City of York Council officers had tried for years to persuade Fuccio to improve conditions there after first warning him in 2008.
Hygiene breaches continued and in August 2011 he was served with an improvement notice, which he didn't comply with.
He ignored basic kitchen safety rules such as keeping raw and cooked meat apart and failed to keep cooking tools and surfaces clean.
The restaurant received a zero rating under the council's five-star rating system for food hygiene when it was inspected in 2011.
Staff at the restaurant had ignored basic food safety techniques that anyone would use in their home kitchen.
They included one member of staff coughing into his hand and then continuing to work with dough, dirty surfaces and failures to keep hot food hot and chilled food cold enough.
Public health
Prosecutor Anna Barker said: "These could have had a very serious impact on public health. We are incredibly lucky. All of the incidents I have outlined could have led to food poisoning.
"It could have happened to anyone who ate at that restaurant. These offences could have led to something much more serious."
Fuccio, now of Garden Street, Brighton, pleaded guilty to 13 food hygiene offences and asked for 16 more to be taken into consideration.
Magistrates said he had shown a "blatant disregard" of the regulations, but their powers were limited to a fine and by his income.
They fined him £3,200 and ordered him to also pay £2,000 costs and a £15 victim surcharge. The magistrates also banned him indefinitely from managing any food business.
They were told he had been sacked as the restaurant's manager and it is now run by completely new management.
Fuccio told magistrates: "I have lost my family, I have no job, no business, no family, I have nothing left."
He said publicity after an earlier court appearance in the case had "killed the business" and that he and the staff had "tried their best".
He declined to comment as he left court.

Dry bean harvest underway in the panhandle
Dry bean harvest is getting into full swing in the North Platte Valley. Farmers are busy operating combines and moving equipment from field to field. Paul Jerger farms in the Gering Valley. His harvest got started a week and half ago and progress has been slow.
Despite the hot dry conditions, Jerger says cutting has been gradual. He has found the pods are ripe, but the vines are green and have been slow to dry down which makes it hard to run through the combine.
In growing pinto beans, Jerger is pleased with this year's crop as this summer Jerger was able to dodge hail storms and he has had few issues with the crop with little disease or insect pressure. He says everything worked out pretty good. He says he sprayed for bean beetles earlier in the season and he hasn't had blight or rust, which has helped yields and this year's harvest. In the field KNEB caught up with him it was averaging 50 bushels an acre.
With a good crop harvested, Jerger is already looking ahead at next year. He says we will have to wait and see on about the water situation. He says hopefully the good lord will bring some moisture, so we can have some for next summer. Jerger is among many farmers who depend on the snowpack in the mountains of Wyoming for their irrigation supply through the summer, but Jerger is used to adversity, he is far from being new into farming.
After farming over 50 years, he is bringing his grandson and son -in- law into the business. He has almost wrapped up this year's bean harvest with only 15 acres left to go. Then in a few weeks his corn crop will be ready to be harvested.

Eight players ejected in opening faceoff brawl between Canucks, Flames
Originally published: Jan 19, 2014 - 8:41 am
So it should come as no surprise then that two seconds into the all-Canadian contest, the two teams, who came onto the ice with their fourth lines, engaged in a vicious brawl that led to the immediate ejection of eight players.
Notorious tough guys Tom Sestito (Canucks) and Brian McGrattan (Flames) were at the center of the fracas, as was minor-league call-up Kellan Lain, who was making his first career appearance with Vancouver.
In all, the two teams combined for 188 penalty minutes in the opening period, 142 of which came in the first 300 seconds.
But the fighting apparently didn't stop there.
Canucks head coach John Tortorella, who is well-known for his fiery temper, was reportedly caught on CBC's camera trying to make his way into the Flames' locker room between periods. Tortorella was intercepted by McGrattan, and the two exchanged words before being separated.
The NHL is currently reviewing the incident.

Twinlab L-Methionine 500 mg. - 30 Capsules
Twinlab L-Methionine 500 mg. is an amino acid. Methionine is one of the essential amino acids (building blocks of protein), meaning that it cannot be produced by the body, and must be provided by the diet. It supplies sulfur and other compounds required by the body for normal metabolism and growth. Methionine also belongs to a group of compounds called lipotropics, or chemicals that help the liver process fats (lipids). Others in this group include choline, inositol, and betaine (trimethylglycine). Well tolerated by most highly allergic individuals. No tablet binders, coatings, colorings, flavorings, salt, artificial sweeteners, preservatives or salicylates added.
Twinlab was created in 1968 when founder David Blechman leveraged his 20 years of expertise in the pharmaceutical industry to develop and market a liquid protein supplement. Working out of his family's garage, he and his wife named their developing business Twinlab, after the couple's two sets of twins. Sales soared, and in the 1980s, Twinlab branched out to a broader range of vitamins, minerals, herbs and teas.
In late 2003, ISI Brands Inc. acquired the Twinlab brand. Their mission is to combine a complete range of dietary supplements with knowledge from foremost experts in the nutrition field to help people of all ages lead happier, healthier lives.
Their brands include some of the most recognizable and trusted in the industry: Twinlab, Metabolife, Nature's Herbs, Alvita Teas, and Cole Water. They also provide private label and contract manufacturing expertise to some of the world's largest retailers.
They are a proud member of the local business community in American Fork, Utah, where they have located the 170,000 square foot state-of-the-art manufacturing facility from which they manufacture, package and distribute over 1,000 premium quality capsule, tablet, powder, liquid, herbal and tea products. They also maintain corporate offices in New York, NY and Grand Rapids, MI, as well as an aquifer and water bottling facility in Peru, IN.

The Kansas City Chiefs wrapped up their offseason program on Thursday and after hearing Andy Reid speak there were two big takeaways for me: 1.) He is happy with the state of the roster and 2.) The Chiefs are further along than he thought they would be. Both excellent news.
OK, prepare for the optimism! Here we go...
1. Asked if he was happy with where the Chiefs roster is, Reid said, "I am."
His partner in crime, GM John Dorsey, said something similar in this interview with the (other) AP's Dave Skretta: "What I'm proud of is we got here January 13, we created a plan with regards to the immediate team - free agency, the draft, how to create competitive depth on the roster - and I think we've done a pretty good job with that," Dorsey said.
Yeah, what else were they supposed to say? Um, they could say they're not happy with the roster.
So they're both happy with the roster, while also acknowledging that the personnel moves never stop. You're always improving.
2. And speaking of improving, Reid said the Chiefs did a better job of improving each week than he thought they would. Yes, better than he thought they would.
Asked if he had a goal of where he wanted the Chiefs to be after OTAs, Reid said, "You have an idea, yes. You come in with an idea. I think we've exceeded that. You can put a whole lot in, but it's important that the fundamentals and techniques are there too on both sides of the ball and special teams."
Key line there: "I think we've exceeded that."
3. "I thought we were able to maintain the fundamentals and techniques and get better at those," Reid continued, "and at the same time the players were studying so stinkin' hard that their retention was good enough to where you could add a little bit more than what you thought you could."
Reid said that with his previous teams he would give them 3-4 days off in between practices as the Chiefs have done this offseason. He said when those teams came back, they lost something previously learned. "That's not the way this crew was," Reid said. "They took it up another notch every time they came in."
Is he just blowing smoke? Is this coach speak? We don't know him well enough to answer that but I'm intrigued by his answers here.
4. These are all good things, no?
I remember Romeo Crennel saying last year's Chiefs team worked hard and did the right things. They had excellent attendance at the offseason program, complimented each other and stayed in shape. From my vantage point they were doing all the right things.
Just like what Andy Reid is saying now. (Yes, you can call me a Debbie Downer.)
What I'm feeling right now: Lots of optimism for the 2013 Chiefs while also remembering that we've seen good offseasons before. Cautiously optimistic is the category I would place myself. What about you?

In the Laikipia region of Northern Kenya ...
Loisaba Lodge
Loisaba Lodge sits on the border of Laikipia and Kenya's rugged Northern Frontier District.
Where better for a luxury safari in Kenya than just a few miles from the equator, in a private game reserve where the farm management and local Laikipiak Maasai and Samburu communities work together to preserve the delicate environment and the wildlife that abounds there. Laikipia lodge is thoughtfully built from stone, local timbers and thatch and is perched high on the edge of the plateau that offers amazing views all the way south to Mount Kenya.
Each room at Loisaba lodge has large French doors that open out onto a wonderful private decking area that overlooks the escarpment. The views from your cantilevered terrace are unforgettable and the waterhole below offers continual entertainment as it attracts a great number and diversity of game throughout the day, evening and night. Loisaba is well known for the 'starbeds' that attract many for a once in a life time overnight stay on an open, stilted room under the African sky. The kiboko and Koija Starbeds consist of three platforms that are designed for an adventurous one night stay for one or two people. The family platform however can accommodate four guests. Each of the Starbed platforms has en-suite facilities and a large shower. Each platform is of course located in such a position to provide privacy.
You can arrive at the Starbeds from the main Loisaba lodge in a variety of fashions, on horseback, on foot, by safari jeep, camel, or mountain bike. You'll be supplied with a sumptuous picnic to see you very comfortably through the starlit night ahead of you.
Loisaba is made for adventure and yet also relaxation. A stay here can offer you the pure indulgence of a sea mineral mud wrap to a mountain bike trail down the escarpment. You're completely at your own freedom to choose how you'd like to spend your time. So if you fancy exploring your surroundings by camel or a horseback-ride through the wild canyons then you can do so before enjoying a lovely massage before dinner.
Loisaba lodge is located in an immense area of wilderness that would take months to explore fully. The game here is diverse from elephant, buffalo, grevy zebra, and greater kudu to an increasing number of reports of big cat sightings and wild dog which were thought to be extinct in this region. At Loisaba there is no limit to what you can do here, from exciting fly camping in the wilderness, helicopter trips to the remote sand dunes of the Northern Frontier District, fly-fishing on Mount Kenya to exhilarating rock climbing amongst the soaring pinnacles that reach up from the valley floor.
At Loisaba you are very unlikely to bump into anyone else and you'll enjoy a broad spectrum of flora and fauna and a vibrant kaleidoscope of bird species both endemic and migratory. If you fancy relaxing at the lodge then there is a wonderful cooling swimming pool, tennis courts, bocce court and croquet lawn. In addition there is the Spa for both massage and beauty treatments and a romantic open air bubble bath.

Burnham lifeboat crews rescued 67 people
3:00pm Friday 7th February 2014 in Local News
Burnham's lifeboat crews rescued 67 people last year.
The boat was launched 44 times in what was a busy year for the volunteer crews across East Anglia.
Peter Dawes, regional operations manager for the RNLI, said: "Whether it is hot and sunny or windy and rainy, the water always presents a number of risks for visitors to the coast.
"We would always recommend that people take care when going to the coast and follow some simple safety tips; always check tide times before taking to the water.
"Avoid areas where you could get swept off your feet in stormy weather, and if you're visiting the coast, be sure to visit a lifeguarded beach during the summer months."

Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers.

Repeat the Feat
Aug. 21, 2005
In his first year as a collegiate head coach, Kevin Paul couldn't have scripted a better end to his 2005 season. After an 0-8 start, the Dolphins finished with a 15-6 run, an 8-2 mark in the Atlantic Sun Conference, while also capturing the program's first conference tournament crown and it's first NCAA Tournament bid in the Division I era. Even with the story book ending, Paul knows his squad needs to prepare even harder to avoid the early pitfalls and repeat the success of 2004.
Despite the loss of libero Kelly Ryals and outside hitter Candice Rose, the Dolphins return the main core which sparked the squad's resurgence at the end of the year.
Leading the way will be First-Team All-Atlantic Sun Conference selection Eva Stoilova, Atlantic Sun Championship Most Valuable Player Lindsay Ward and All-Atlantic Sun Championship honoree Joanna Silva. The additions of junior middle hitter Stevenique Richardson and freshman libero Alyssa Fowles will also provide the Dolphins with one of its most athletic squads in program history.
With a solid core returning and a group of talented newcomers, the pieces are in place for an encore performance.
Outside Hitters Despite the loss of Candice Rose, the Dolphins return three regular starters at the position. Junior Eva Stoilova will be the focal point of the offense after leading the squad with 296 kills (3.08 kpg), en route to her second consecutive A-Sun Conference accolades. Despite playing with an injured right shoulder, the junior also led the Dolphins with 901 attacks while ranking second with 285 digs (2.97 dpg) and 21 service aces.
After a slow start to the year, Joanna Silva made her way into the starting lineup and solidified the Dolphin defense from the back row. In the month of November, the senior posted three double-doubles (kills/digs), four double-digit kill efforts and four double-digit dig matches. During the A-Sun Championship, she tallied a career-high 33 digs against Florida Atlantic on Nov. 19 and her 63 digs in three matches shattered the previous tournament record.
Junior Petya Borisova will also provide experience at the position and is one of the squad's most talented passers. Last season, she was third on the team with 2.54 kills and 2.93 digs per game.
"Eva is the player that can put the ball away for us at most any time,," said Paul. "Peyta really makes our setters job much easier with her passing and Joanna has a great knack for making defensive plays for us on a consistent basis."
Sophomore Katie Hendrian provided a spark off the bench for the Dolphins by playing in 21 matches as a freshman. Despite the lack of playing time, she averaged 1.48 kills, 1.85 digs and 0.52 blocks per game. Freshman Laura Goettsch could also see time at the position during the year.
Middle Hitters Seniors Danielle Neville and Lindsay Ward will anchor the squad's deepest position in 2005.
Ward earned A-Sun Championship MVP honors after leading the Dolphins with 46 kills and a .371 hitting percentage in three matches. She also led the squad with a .287 hitting percentage and ranked second on the squad with 264 kills and 85 blocks.
Neville, who has started every match in her Dolphin career, lead the squad in blocks (104 - 1.05 bpg) and service aces (30) in 2004. She previously earned All-Atlantic Sun honors in 2003 after ranking third in the conference with a .315 hitting percentage.
"Danielle has been one of the top blockers since her arrival and will always give us a chance to win the point, said Paul. "Lindsay has come a long way since emerging as the team leader last season. She has become a great attacker and gives us the balance we need at the net."
Stevenique Richardson, a transfer from Gulf Coast Community College, will look to make an immediate impact in 2005 after earning consecutive First-Team All-Panhandle Conference and Panhandle Conference MVP honors. In two years with the Commodores, she posted 629 kills and 234 blocks to lead the squad.
Freshman Laura Goettsch will also provide depth at the position after leading St. Mary's Catholic High School to three consecutive Thames Valley titles and Western Ontario Finals.
Setter/Libero Youth, talent and experience will be the driving force for the setter and libero positions in 2005.
Senior Erin Donivan will enter the year as the team's starting setter after winning the job at the midpoint of last season. With Donivan directing the offense, the Dolphins finished the season on a 15-6 run and increased their hitting percentage from .173 to .203. Donivan finished the year with career-high totals in assists (842 - 8.8 apg), digs (2.76 - 2.88) and double-doubles (eight).
"Erin has proved she deserves the starting position," Paul said. "The team trusts her because they know she will give 100% to get to every ball. She was our team MVP last year because of her commitment to being a great athlete and I know she will have a great final year for us."
With the transfer of Erin Hickman, freshman Una Dzalba will back up Donivan as the year progresses. Dzalba, who stands 6-foot-3, played for the Junior National Team of Latvia the past two seasons and was named MVP of the National Championship of Latvia.
"Una is going to be the future of our program," said Paul. "She brings tremendous size and experience to our team at the setter position."
One of the major keys to the Dolphins' season will be the play of freshman Alyssa Fowles at libero for the departed Kelly Ryals. Fowles was a three-time All-Tri County Athletic League honoree after leading San Benito High School to a NorCal State Tournament appearance and a Top-50 ranking in the nation in 2002.
"Alyssa is a great player, who has the court saviness of a veteran," said Paul. "She possesses the ball control we need to repeat as A-Sun champions. We are going to be in the libero position for the next four years."

The Karmapa Escapes Tibet
On a December night in 1999, 14-year-old Ogyen Trinley Dorje quietly slipped out of a window of Tolung Tsurphu Monastery in central Tibet. For the next two days he rode in a car driven by monks, nonstop, until they reached a rugged and isolated area bordering Nepal. From there, going by foot, horseback, helicopter, train and finally taxi, the boy and his attendants traveled unnoticed through Nepal to India. They reached Dharamsala, the seat of the Tibetan government in exile, on January 5.
Every year, as many as 3,000 Tibetans evade guards and checkpoints and escape Tibet. But Ogyen Trinley Dorje's escape made international headlines, because he is His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa, the reborn head of the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism. The Karmapa is the third highest lama in Tibetan Buddhism.
The teenage Karmapa arrived at Dharamsala exhausted, with blistered feet, and caught His Holiness the Dalai Lama by surprise. The defection also caused great consternation for the governments of China and India.
China had barred the Karmapa from leaving Tibet, and the defection was an embarrassment for Beijing. The government of China had hoped that a loyal and compliant Karmapa would help legitimize China's rule over Tibet. Instead, once in Dharamsala the teenager spoke out about Tibet's lack of religious freedom.
The government of India faced a dilemma. China warned India that granting asylum to the "living Buddha" would jeopardize relations between the two nations. But much of the rest of the world supported asylum for the Karmapa. New Dehli wavered for over a year before granting refugee status to the Karmapa in February 2001.
The Karmapas
Kagyu is one of the four main traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. It is based on teachings brought to Tibet from India by Marpa Chokyi Lodoe (1012-1099). The first Karmapa, Dusum Khyenpa (1110-1193), founded a school of Kagyu called Karma Kagyu. The Karma Kagyu school claims an unbroken lineage of reincarnations of the Karmapa, the oldest such lineage in Tibetan Buddhism, to the present day.
After the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1950, the 16th Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, tried to continue his work in Tibet. But the situation in Tibet became increasingly unstable and dangerous. The 16th Karmapa, with a number of Karma Kagyu monks and teachers, left Tibet in 1959, as did His Holiness the Dalai Lama. The Karmapa took the most sacred objects and artifacts of the Karma Kagyu lineage out of Tibet, also. The Karmapa established his new seat outside Tibet in Rumtek, a monastery in Sikkim that the 9th Karmapa had founded at the end of the 16th century.
Also, as the various traditions and schools of Tibetan Buddhism relocated outside Tibet, the Tibetan government in exile decided some administrative consolidation was in order. The government in exile appointed the Karmapa to be head of all schools of Kagyu, not just Karma Kagyu. Until his death in 1981, the 16th Karmapa provided leadership and teaching to the Kagyu tradition in exile.
The 17th Karmapa
The Karmapa lineage is said to be self-announced, because each Karmapa leaves a letter predicting his next rebirth. Eleven years passed before the letter left by the 16th Karmapa was located. The letter provided a location, also seen by His Holiness the Dalai Lama in a dream, and the names of the next Karmapa's parents. By means of these predictions, in 1992 a seven-year-old named Apo Gaga was identified as the 17th Karmapa.
The 17th Karmapa was born in eastern Tibet on July 26th, 1985. After his identification he was taken to Tolung Tsurphu Monastery and enthroned there in September 1992. He studied Buddhism at Tsurphu until his escape in 1999. By all accounts His Holiness is an intelligent, serious and sincere young man with particular interest in protecting the earth's environment.
The Other 17th Karmapa
Although Ogyen Trinley Dorje has been accepted by a majority of Kagyu lamas and monasteries and by the Dalai Lama as the legitimate Karmapa, a substantial minority recognize another young man, Trinley Thaye Dorje, born in 1983 in Lhasa. Trinley Thaye was identified as the Karmapa by another reincarnated Karma Kagyu lama, the 14th Sharmapa, Mipham Chokyi Lodro. Trinlay Thaye Dorje escaped from Tibet in 1994 and currently lives in Kalimpong, India.
A great many devout and sincere people make elaborate arguments about the legitimacy of one Karmapa over the other. There are myriad accusations, claims and counterclaims. Ogyen Trinley, however, has the recognition of both the Dalai Lama and the government of China. Indeed, he is the only living tulku (reincarnated lama) to be so recognized; the Dalai Lama and China don't agree on anyone else. Although previous incarnations of the Karmapa did not depend on China's or the Dalai Lama's recognition, the combined weight of their authority does give Ogyen Trinley an advantage.
Robert A. F. Thurman, professor of Buddhist studies at Columbia University, was asked about the controversy during Ogyen Trinley's first visit to the United States. "The other Karmapa is a nice person, and he has followers in Europe and Asia, but almost all of the Tibetans accept the Karmapa who is here now," he said.
Although one hates to accuse the high officials of a major Buddhist school of being greedy, it appears the real bone of contention is over control of Rumtek Monastery and the many priceless art treasures, artifacts and relics therein.
