Since 1980, Propane USA has been distributing its gaseous inventory for a wide range of applications, along with the appliances that harness the fuel's stockpiles of potential energy. Their team of technicians refills everything from 20-pound grill tanks to household units, travelling within Broward, Dade, and Palm Beach counties to service and maintain under- and above-ground tanks, oversee new construction projects, and preach the propane gospel over their truck's loudspeakers. At their storefront, a collection of propane-burning appliances transform the gas into a means to cook raw meat, heat homes, generate electricity, or light outdoor spaces.

Inside a tile-floored room, a communal table seems to beg for the clatter of youthful bakers with empty places marked by stacks of recipes and empty bowls. Beneath a giant painted chef hat, which proclaims "Bon Appetit!" from the sage-green wall, lifelong cook Chef Frank and his staff work quickly to set the stage for all-ages cooking classes at Growing Cooks Culinary Emporium. The crew aims to combat childhood obesity by arming youngsters with a love of cooking, a range of healthy recipes, and diminutive kitchenware. Blanketed by clouds of enticing aromas, themed classes for children, adults, and families introduce the fundamentals of crafting chocolate confections and cakes, small meals, and international dishes such as ravioli and enchiladas. Chefs demystify the process of baking bread, blending sauces, and constructing desserts without forcing students through the linguine ropes courses of many culinary programs. Natural light floods Growing Cook's store space, where shelves and racks teem with colorful cooking utensils and child-size kitchen uniforms, including embroidered aprons and cloth chef hats. Themed utensil and supply kits such as baking mixes and pizza-party sets prepare children to practice at home and allow them to save the day when a party sub is lodged lengthwise across the door. Growing Cook's classes and products alike are designed to instill wee visitors with self-esteem and the sense of adventure and creativity that blooms when first taking a bite of a dish made with one?s own hands.

A man enters a framing shop with a colossal photo depicting tiers of gleaming automobiles. After a brief search through a multitude of framing samples, the man comes to a decision. He wants his frame covered in blinking LED lights. Accepting the challenge, Picture Framing Warehouse and Art Gallery's owner, Karl Can, along with his brothers and son Ali, get to work on making the client's vision a reality. Since 1993, the warehouse's certified framers have fulfilled a variety of custom-framing orders, encasing items ranging from paintings to tubas to 7-foot-tall mirrors. Picture Framing Warehouse and Art Gallery's 6,000-square-foot facility stays loaded with frames made by brand-name companies including Larson-Juhl, Omega Moulding, and Engelsen, available in more than 2,000 colors. Since some orders can be completed the same day they're placed, customers can wait for their completed project while browsing the colorful paintings and artfully framed frames lining the walls of the warehouse's dedicated art gallery.

Bruno's: The Delights of Chicken and Waffles
It happened like this: Ryan Ostler and Katharine Zacher started serving their version of Southern food from the kitchen of an Excelsior bar called Broken Record. But just as we were falling in love, they up and left us. The duo—who met at Boulevard and between them have worked at some of the city's finest kitchens, including Range, Quince and Campton Place—packed up their knives and left for a tour of barbecue joints and regional restaurants throughout the South, beginning in Ostler's hometown of Austin. Says Zacher, "I was struck by how great the barbecue was and how terrible the sides were. Loaves of Wonder bread, bland beans—just because it's traditional doesn't mean it's good. The Californian in me cringed."
Pork ribs, coleslaw and buttermilk biscuits.
Armed with new knowlege, they decided to come back to the Bay Area bearing some culinary souvenirs from their trip, which they debuted in early November at their new home, Mission District bar Bruno's. A dark-roux thickened gumbo, frito pie (a dish Zacher says inspires "fanatical devotion"), chicken and waffles and pulled pork sandwiches (served on homemade buns) all rotate on the menu, with lesser-known Southern specialties, such as the boudin sausage so beloved in parts of Louisiana, slated to debut in the coming weeks.
An affogato
Given that both Ostler and Zacher are trained as pastry chefs, it goes without saying that dessert should not be overlooked. Don't skip out on "toffee crack"—matzo covered with toffee and a layer of dark chocolate—or the whoopie pies, two rounds of moist chocolate cake sandwiching a thick slather of marshmallow-y buttercream, or the bacon palmiers, the classic French puff-pastry-based cookie suffused with caramelized bacon. In fact, you won't want to skip any of it. If you missed Ostler and Zacher at Broken Record, don't make the same mistake twice.

Saints RB Pierre Thomas is frustrated at how long his rehab has taken, and a report surfaced Sunday morning that his head coach was pretty frustrated too.
Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reported Sunday that Sean Payton had lost his patience with Thomas. The Saints' starter hurt his ankle in Week Three and has not played since.
After Sunday's loss to the Browns, Thomas spoke to The Times-Picayune and said Glazer's report was news to him.
"I'm still hurt; my ankle still bothers me. I'm taking it day by day," he said.
With RB Reggie Bush also out with an injury, undrafted rookie Chris Ivory has been the starter the last two weeks.
"I don't know when it's going to heal. I'm doing all I can, in that training room each and every day, getting treatment each and every day ... I want to go out there and play so bad," said Thomas.
The way we see it
Thomas' rehab has taken longer than most people thought, and Glazer said there's a chance that even when healthy, Thomas won't start considering he may be in Payton's doghouse. Ivory had a huge game in Week Six, but the Saints had just 58 yards on the ground in their loss to the Browns on Sunday, and a lack of a consistent run game has contributed to their losses. The defending champs sit at just 4-3.
Fantasy Spin
Ivory likely disappointed fantasy owners who snagged him after his monster game in Week Six. But until Thomas returns, which seems unknown at this point, Ivory is the Saints' top back.

Okay, let's have the usual onslaught of posts about how all those "other people" from over the hill come here to commit crimes. With that dreaded "stack and pack" and Agenda 21 we'll have nogoodniks like these guys all over Danville in no time.
Hey - and guess what? The race of the perps wasn't mentioned, was it? We all know what that means, as we've been advised repeatedly by posts from locals right here on the Danville Express - it's obvious that the bad guys are minorities, and their races are being concealed due to "reverse racism" and "liberal PC" - right?
C'mon, guys: where's the outrage? These guys stole a lot of money, and victimized people who were losing their homes. Why aren't the sanctimonious Danville "we are superior" crowd up in arms?

You know, Karen, when most folks reach a certain age or stage of development -- say, their mid-teens -- they find their own accomplishments are a better source of personal pride than when their ancestors arrived here, from where, or whether they traveled by first class ticket.
Then again, maybe you DON'T know.
on Jan 10, 2014 at 10:48 am
Karen, the surname "Silva" is Portuguese. Portugal is in Europe. (I know, I know, this stuff is hard. But take your time, look it up, sound out the big words.) I know lots of Silvas. None of them are "minorities", no matter how you spell it.

Hey everyone, I'll be in town for a job interview (Tuesday, 9am) and staying with Family. I will also be working while I am in town, but have a flexible schedule. If anyone wants to get on some classics, I lead in the 10ish range and can follow harder. Prefer to climb trad, but will climb sport as I need to get better at it. Should have every afternoon after 2pm free, so a few routes over in Calico Basin or something else close to the road would be optimal on those days. I can take ONE day off during that time aside from Saturday which is open as well, so a long route or two are definitely something I would want to do. Feel free to PM me and we can discuss. Have will to suffer and bad sense of humor...
Extended my stay for a few days for a second interview, free to climb this weekend. Have my rope rack etc here and am fired up to get on some sunny classics
best of luck- big storm comes in tomorrow with temps dropping to the 30s (highs) over the weekend along with gusty winds (20-30mph) last i checked. i scrapped my plans this week- might go skiing instead.
Thanks! Balmy conditions down here for sure! Have grown accustomed to the frigid tundra that has been Reno of late, been spoiled going out and bouldering and mountain biking in warmer temps the last few days. Nothing like climbing in crisp winter conditions, though! :)

Alex Rodriguez is heading to the disabled list after fracturing his left hand, according to multiple reports. A-Rod took a Felix Hernandez pitch to the wrist in Tuesday night's game against the Seattle Mariners and hit the deck, grimacing in pain.
SB Nation's Yankees blog, Pinstripe Alley, knows this could be a blow to New York.
A lot of people have a lot of opinions about A-Rod as a player, but the Yankees can't lose him for an extended period. His bat is finally showing some life in terms of power, so losing him now hurts. It will hurt even worse if his fracture lingers and keeps him out for awhile. Every day third baseman Jayson Nix. You can think a lot of things about A-Rod, but you can't think that's somehow a good thing.
Making matters a little worse, the Yankees lost the game.
That said, the Yankees can lose Rodriguez for an extended period of time. Even after losing to Seattle, the Yankees own a seven-game lead over the second-place Orioles, and only a collapse of epic proportions will keep the Yankees from winning another division title. The Yankees' focus will presumably be on getting their regular third baseman -- and their highest-paid player -- back in plenty of time for the championship tournament in October.
For more on the Yankees, visit Pinstripe Alley and SB Nation New York.

I'm in San Francisco, where the eclipse won't be happening until late afternoon... is it still going to require 13 stops to get a good shot?It's probably too late for this time but the best way to find out would have been to try a few shots in the days leading up around the same time. You might be OK with less but you could well need to stop down the lens a lot more than you'd normally like to.
I'm glad I bought the proper filter, assuming you're looking for a telephoto shot I found 400mm on a crop to be quite tricky to frame so it was a big bonus being able to use LV continuously to make small adjustments, I didn't record any exact times but I seem to remember about 5 minutes was enough time for the sun to drift from center frame to towards the edge.

Lisa Wexler's research considers how health and disease are understood and enacted within a social and cultural context. Considering how different people identify, understand and address their "problems" can enable professionals to advocate for meaningful change as well as develop effective intervention projects. Dr. Wexler is particularly interested in learning how situated discourses, attitudes and beliefs, of both
professionals and the people they serve, influence minority wellbeing. Her work has focused on suicide and suicide prevention in an Alaskan Inupiaq community. Through the Family Research Scholars Program, Dr. Wexler developed a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) proposal for submission to the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Polar Programs (OPP).

Is the phrase "to decide a problem" incorect? If it's also used does it differ in use from :to solve a problem"?
Thank you in advance.

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Glenn Danzig cofounded the Misfits in Lodi, NJ, in 1977. When the hardcore band broke up in 1983, Danzig formed the metallic, brooding Samhain in order to experiment with different sounds, but that project imploded as well. The band Danzig was put together in 1987, and quickly inked a deal with Rick Rubin's Def American label. Their self-titled debut found Danzig playing the satanic metal singer role to the hilt, even if the band's songs sounded much the same. Danzig II: Lucifuge followed in 1990, and it broadened the band's musical palette, expanding on the simple blues riffs of the debut with more extensive forays into that style. Danzig III: How the Gods Kill marked a full-fledged entry into the realm of gothic romanticism, working to create moods rather than pounding heavy metal aggression; "Dirty Black Summer" and "How the Gods Kill" became staples on MTV's Headbanger's Ball.
Danzig next released a solo project, Black Aria, a quasi-operatic attempt at classical instrumentals depicting the fall of Satan from heaven. The band broke through into the mainstream in 1993, when a live video for "Mother," a song originally released on Danzig, became an inescapable smash on MTV and even charted as a single, nearly cracking the Billboard Top 40. Meanwhile, Danzig contributed a track entitled "Thirteen" to Johnny Cash's acclaimed 1994 effort American Recordings. The more experimental Danzig 4 was released in 1994 and entered the charts at number 29, but its quiet, moody, atmospheric subtlety didn't find as much favor with the band's new audience as the anthemic "Mother," while some longtime fans dismissed it as mellow and therefore commercial.
During the supporting tour, Chuck Biscuits left the band and was replaced by Joey Castillo. Following the tour, Danzig broke up the band and formed a new version featuring ex-Prong guitarist/vocalist Tommy Victor, drummer Castillo, and bassist Josh Lazie; this lineup released Blackacidevil on Halloween 1996. Blackacidevil was ignored by both the press and the public, falling out of the charts after a mere three weeks. 6:66 Satan's Child followed in 1999; Live on the Black Hand Side appeared two years later. In 2002 and 2004 Danzig released the stripped-down I Luciferi and Circle of Snakes, both returns to form that found the artist emulating the simplistic brutality of his 1988 debut. Black Aria II arrived in fall of 2006. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- President Obama's speech last night on the crisis in Syria did not sway Kentuckiana's congressional delegation. Almost all remain solidly opposed to a military strike.
There are 11 senators and congressmen who represent Kentucky and Southern Indiana. Right now, all but one either opposes or is leaning toward opposing military action in Syria.
Indiana Congressman Todd Young had been at least open to a possible missile strike against Syria. But now, after the President's speech, Young says he's a definite "no."
"I did want to give the President an opportunity to make his case before making a final decision about the best path forward. I'm now resolved that I do not support the authorization for use of military force," said Young.
He joins most of Kentucky's congressional delegation, as well as Indiana Sen. Dan Coats in opposing military action in Syria.
Kentucky's Hal Rogers says he's leaning "no."
Indiana Senator Joe Donnelly remains officially undecided.
Sen. Rand Paul has been the most outspoken, making his own speech Tuesday night following the President.
"We fail to see a national security interest in a war between a leader who gasses his own citizens and Islamic rebels who are killing Christians," said Paul.
The congressional delegation appears to reflect the public attitude towards Syria. Polls show Americans want a diplomatic, not a military solution. The debate is evident here on the streets of Louisville.
"I would say 'no' until we get further approval from the United Nations," said one man.
One woman said, "You can't put American lives in danger in order to protect a foreign country."
"We have an opportunity to stop innocent people from being gassed. We should jump on that opportunity," said one dissenting voice who approved of a military strike.
"It's a civil war. It's not our problem," said another.
Young says all options should remain open. But he says Congress seems fairly unified on this issue.
"Unified against the use of military force, but unified in our bipartisan effort to try and assure the United States ends up in the best possible spot coming out of this mess," said Young.
Sen. Mitch McConnell, of course, is fighting for re-election. Of his major opponents, Republican Matt Bevin is strongly opposed to military action in Syria. Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes says she is skeptical.

NYC taxi driver returns over $13,000 in lost gadgets to forgetful owner
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Misc. Tech, Transportation
Have you ever left anything in a cab? We know plenty who've lost iPhone and Android devices, tablets, laptops, and other expensive gadgetry, but Casey Neistat accidentally left over $13,000 in expensive technology in his taxi. After going through the frustrating process of filing reports with the taxi company, making calls, and getting a police report filed, he wondered if he'd get his stuff back at all. Seriously, how likely is it that you leave something expensive in a taxi and expect to get it back? Normally the item is found by another passenger, or the taxi driver himself, and then disappears for good. Not this time.
Mohammed, the driver who picked up Casey from JFK the night he lost his bags, made sure to turn them in. Casey got his bags back, and called Mohammed so that he could thank him in person, and give him a $500 cash reward. "I gave him $500. It's a lot more than I could afford, but a lot less than he deserved."
Check out the short video documentary that Casey put together on the experience above.

Okay, so raise your hand if you saw this one coming: Monday evening, Jon Heyman reported that free-agent center fielder Michael Bourn is signing with the Cleveland Indians for four years and $48 million, with a vesting option that could make the deal five years and $60 million.
Bourn spent last season with the Atlanta Braves, and his outstanding first half -- .311/.366/.451, with 30 extra-base hits -- got him an All-Star nod. But Bourn slumped badly in the second half, batting .225 with only 15 long hits; those numbers probably cost him a great deal of money this winter, and left him unemployed until the eve of spring training.
The Indians have completely re-made their outfield this winter: trading Shin-Soo Choo to the Reds and acquiring Drew Stubbs; signing free agent Nick Swisher; and now signing Bourn, too. The Indians do still have Michael Brantley, who might serve in a left-field platoon with Stubbs.
This is all very heady stuff for the Indians, who lost 94 games last season while finishing 13th in the American League in both scoring and attendance. The club still has a pitching rotation full of question marks, but at least the Indians figure to score a few more runs this season.
Update: Word out of Cleveland (or maybe Goodyear) is that Brantley will play left field, Bourn center, and Stubbs right, with Swisher at first base and Mark Reynolds DHing.

Often when journalists
deal with issues that involve numbers, they struggle to quantify the impact of
those issues in ways that are simple but not misleading. A headline that
shouts, "Murders in Community Double" can be perfectly accurate, but
also misleading if the number of murders went up from one last month to two
this month.
Similarly, public officials can use numbers in ways that
tend to maximize the perception of the impact of issues that make them look
good, and to minimize the perception of the impact of issues that make them
look bad.
Take, for instance, the grade-change scandal in the
Montgomery Public Schools system.
On Tuesday, MPS Superintendent Barbara Thompson went out
of her way to emphasize that the investigations of the scandal found that
grades were changed for "a small number of our students" -- about 200
students "out of about 32,000 students" in the school system. This
was, she pointed out, "less than half of 1 percent" of the total
number of students. (It's actually about six-tenths of 1 percent, but let's
don't quibble too much.)
But is that a fair way of quantifying the extent of the
impact of the scandal? I would suggest that it is not.
For instance, the grade changing apparently involved
misuse of the state's credit recovery program and remote access learning --
programs generally not available to elementary schools. So counting elementary
school students among those not impacted is specious, if not deliberately
In fact, according to school officials, the scandal
involved just three of the system's seven high schools. So perhaps a better way
to quantify the extent of the cheating would be to say that it involved
"three of seven high schools."
Or you could compare the 200 grade changes to the total
number of high school students in the county system -- about 7,750, according
to a system spokesman. That would bring the percentage of those affected up
from "half of 1 percent" to about 2.5 percent.
But if you really want to compare that 200 number to a
more legitimate denominator, you could use the enrollment of the three schools
in question -- Lanier, Lee, and Jefferson Davis high schools. (A system
spokesman issued a statement noting that there were no changes at that school
"under the present administration.")
According to a
school system spokesman, the combined enrollment of the three schools is 4,882.
So you could say that the scandal affected 200 students out of 4,882 students at the schools in question, or
about 4 percent.
But the public
should remember that a great many of the students at these high schools were
earning adequate grades on their own, so there would be no need for
administrators to change their grades to make the schools appear more effective.
It may not be possible to know just how many students were doing OK, but assume
that it was at least half. That would mean that about 8 percent of the students
who might have been failing at the three schools had their grades changed.
Mark Twain was fond of
pointing out that there were three types of lies -- "lies, damned lies,
and statistics." He was making the point that numbers can be used to
I do not suggest that anyone is lying about the extent of
this problem. As noted, there are several ways to quantify the extent of this
scandal, and all have some legitimacy. But by emphasizing that grades were
changed for only 200 out of 32,000 students, school officials appear to be
attempting to spin the numbers to put the scandal in the best light possible.
However, they should realize that it is impossible to
make this scandal appear anything but what it is -- a real mess.

"Big Baby" appears to be growing up.
Glen Davis did something Monday night that his basketball coaches and teammates have wanted him to do for years. Instead of allowing his own frustration to spin him out of control, he channeled his negative emotions in a positive direction.
After a first half in which he was outplayed by All-Star Kevin Love and he committed a technical foul, Davis played almost flawlessly and helped lead the Orlando Magic to a comeback win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.
"I can't be up-and-down," Davis said Tuesday.
"I have to be one way the whole time because people are watching me. It's easy to not do as much when nobody's really paying attention to you. But when everybody's paying attention to everything you do and everything you say, and you want to be a part of the team and you're in that position, you do whatever it takes."
Everyone is paying attention to Davis these days because coach Jacque Vaughn named him a co-captain before the regular season. It seemed like a risky move given Davis' emotional nature, but Vaughn's decision has compelled Davis to be accountable for his actions.
"He's been more steady, and that's a great sign for him," Vaughn said. "For the most part, his demeanor, his approach has been consistent. That's the way a captain should be."
There were a few moments Monday night when Davis resembled the old Davis.
Davis entered the game feeling like he had something to prove. Love is widely regarded as one of the sport's best power forwards, and Davis longs to receive similar acclaim.
But as halftime approached, Love already had scored 12 points and had collected seven rebounds.
Davis, on the other hand, hadn't done much except receive two fouls.
Worse, the Magic were trailing by six points.
With 1:18 to go in the half, Davis drove to the hoop, but Love stepped in front of him.
Davis bowled over Love, and a referee whistled Davis for charging.
Davis didn't like the call, and in a moment of exasperation, untucked his jersey from his shorts, revealing his bare belly. When Davis argued a bit more — nothing too vociferous or demonstrative — he received his first technical foul of the season.
At halftime, Vaughn challenged all Magic players to turn their aggravation into something positive.
Davis remembers making a conscious effort to think logically. He told himself that if he kept playing poorly or received more fouls, the Magic would have less of a chance to win.
It wasn't easy.
"It's a challenge," Davis said. "It's something that I have to work on every day, just growing and maturing."
But he did it.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSFarm Bureau Makes Donation To McDonald House
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Feb. 20, 2014 6:02 PM EST
Updated: Feb. 20, 2014 7:06 PM EST
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (Rick Lord) -- The West Virginia Farm Bureau celebrated food check-out Thursday by making a huge donation to the Ronald McDonald House in Huntington.
The donations will go a long way to help families staying in the facility while their sick children spend time in the hospital.
Farm bureau members spent the morning shopping at the Kroger in Barboursville, and unloaded several thousand dollars worth of food and supplies at the Huntington Ronald McDonald House behind Cabell Huntington Hospital.
Employees said the annual donation from the farm bureau lays the foundation for the whole year, and it's just one way they can help families staying there feel more at home.
"When the community comes forward and helps us, we appreciate it so much," Jaye Toler, director of community development for the McDonald House, said. "They help us provide what we try to do for the families of these children who are sick in the hospital."
The bureau takes up donations in its 49 participating counties all year, and also holds food drives to support the three Ronald McDonald Houses in West Virginia.

Cycling: Berkeley rider Pfeiffer Georgi makes winning start to the season
12:30pm Thursday 30th January 2014 in Gloucestershire Sport
BERKELEY-BASED cyclist Pfeiffer Georgi made an impressive start to the 2014 season, winning Saturday's first round of the Icebreaker Series of Youth Track Races at Newport International Velodrome.
Riding in the under-14 girls' category, the races are run in an Olympic Omnium format.
The 13-year-old Castle School student, racing for Giant CC Halo Films, took fourth place in the 4km scratch race, won the next 'devil take the hindmost' race, where the last rider is eliminated each lap, and came second in the final 6km points race to take a highly deserved overall win.
Brother, Etienne Georgi, exhibited his endurance and tactical riding with two second places in his devil and 8km points races.
On both occasions, the 14-year-old Castle School student was second to fellow Olympic Talent Team member, Rhys Britton.
For Etienne, the Icebreaker event formed part of one of a number British Cycling Talent Team camps, which saw the riders back at the velodrome on Sunday for an early morning four-hour team pursuit training session.

***SUNDAY NIGHT UPDATE*** The Watkins Glen NASCAR race has been postponed until Monday morning. Click here for more information.
It's NASCAR race day at Watkins Glen, and we've got the actual race start time, the starting lineup and some other facts about today's road course action for you below.
Start time: The command to start engines will be given by the Travel Channel's Man v. Food Nation host Adam Richman at 1:08 p.m. Eastern time. After a couple pace laps, honorary starter Barry Hendrickson (a Heluva Good! contest winner) will wave the green flag at 1:18 p.m. Eastern. So if you want to skip the pre-race show and just tune in for the race, flip on your TV set at 1:18. There's a catch for the Watkins Glen race, though: The weather is not expected to be good and it's possible the race may be delayed or postponed.
Race name/distance: The "Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips At The Glen" is unusual in that it's virtually the same length as Saturday's Nationwide Series race. The Sprint Cup race is 90 laps (Nationwide was 82), which totals 220.5 miles. Of course, NASCAR would probably just be happy to get to the halfway point today given the weather forecast.
TV and radio: Today marks the third race of ESPN's portion of the NASCAR season. Every Cup race will be on either ESPN or ABC for the rest of the year. If you aren't near a TV, the radio broadcast can be found on your local Motor Racing Network (MRN) affiliate. Click here to see a list of stations where you can listen.
National anthem: Taylor Acorn, a 17 year old who won a local talent competition, is singing the anthem today. She's planning to try out for American Idol, so she could be worth watching.
Tickets: There are still tickets remaining for the Watkins Glen, so you should be safe if you want to take the chance by walking up to the ticket window on race day.
Weather: It's not looking good. According to the unofficial NASCAR weatherman, there was a near-certain chance of rain at race time (as of Saturday morning). The forecast had softened as of Saturday night, but it's still not great.
Last time: One year ago, Juan Pablo Montoya won his second career Sprint Cup Series race, completing the career sweep of NASCAR's Cup road courses. Marcos Ambrose and Kurt Busch are the favorites for today's race.
Starting lineup for today's NASCAR race at Watkins Glen:
- Kyle Busch
- AJ Allmendinger
- Marcos Ambrose
- Jimmie Johnson
- Juan Pablo Montoya
- Ryan Newman
- Tony Stewart
- Carl Edwards
- Martin Truex Jr.

Music is a strange thing. We are all affected by it in different ways and have different expectations when we listen to it. Some of us want to know everything about our favorite artists including their inside leg measurement while others aren't quite so fussy and just want to have some decent and familiar music to while away the hours and hum along to. Music streaming apps have latched onto this and there are now a squillion different places to access the music that you love. Pandora is probably the oldest of the free internet music streaming services and likes ... Read more
It's not easy to come up with an original game concept these days. YIX is a new game for iOS that actually manages to come up with something a little bit different to keep us amused. Well, to be honest, you can't really call this entertaining and very social game truly original because it's origins lie in games like Cards Against Humanity and Apples To Apples but, with it's use of animated GIFs rather than cards, it offers a unique take on a fun and often hilarious piece of entertainment that you can play with family and friends. The ... Read more
The Tower Defense (TD) style of video game is a sub-genre of real time strategy games where the idea is to try to stop an invading force from making inroads into your territory by using various fighting methods - and anything else you can get your hands on. I guess the genre began when Atari introduces the game Rampart way back in the early 90's. The graphics have changed a lot over the years but the gameplay is basically pretty similar. Hero TD - Ancient Continent is a multiplayer online role-playing game for Android, Blackberry10 and iOS that proves to ... Read more
It must have been my growing up in a household that was stacked with Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes novels that led to my love of a genuinely good 'whodunnit' mystery. I used to love trying to figure out who the dastardly murderer was or who stole the jewels from some stately mansion. Then along came the Cluedo board game and it went to another level. The thought of Mr Mustard bludgeoning someone to death with a hammer in the kitchen still haunts me. Things changed inexorably though when fully interactive games like Myst and, later on, Syberia were unleashed ... Read more
With the Brazil World Cup just around the corner, there's one question all English supporters are asking themselves. Do England have a realistic hope of claiming the trophy? Well, it would be silly to completely rule out a team containing the Liverpool trio of Daniel Sturridge, Raheem Stirling and likely captain Stevie Gerrard not to mention brilliant goalkeeper Joe Hart and Manchester United's Wayne Rooney but it's still very hard to go past a South American country holding up the trophy on July 13th. English supporters are infamous for their vocal support for their team and the England World Cup ... Read more
Do you know the thing that turns a good game into a great one? It's a game that looks simple enough for you to win...but isn't. All the most successful games are like that. Candy Crush Saga and Tetris as well as the Angry and Flappy Birds all come to mind. They look so darned simple that you give it a go. An hour or so later you're wondering how you haven't managed to master it yet. Another hour and you're totally addicted to it. Smack Cars is one of those games. On the face of it, what could be ...

If there is one form of music that you could nail to a specific city it is probably Hip-hop and New York. There is a fair bit of Caribbean influence in there too, of course, but it's origins lie in NYC with Grandmaster Flash, the Sugarhill Gang and Africa Bambaataa. Back then it was known as Disco Rap while today it takes on many forms including Rapping and even MC-ing and is one of the most popular forms of music on the planet. These days, the genre is played all over the world by people of all kinds and with ... Read more
It would appear that, after the horrors and belt-tightening that resulted from the GFC a few years ago, there seems to be a little bit of money back in the pocket again. It took around 10-15 years for the turnaround to happen after the crash of '29 so we've probably done a good job in minimizing the damage so far. I think we've learned a few things out of this crisis though. The main thing i think that we've learned is that it's never been more important to organize ourselves monetarily and that it's vital to live within our means. ... Read more
Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal-derived products with an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of sentient animals. Dietary vegans (or strict vegetarians) refrain from consuming all animal related products. This means meat, fish, chicken, eggs, dairy products and all other animal-derived substances. A trip to the supermarket however, often turns into a nightmare for vegans, because of the often confusing ingredient labeling on many of the items. Vegan Scanner lets you scan the item's barcode with your iOS or Android's camera and get information about the product. As a vegan, when in ... Read more

Fort LeBoeuf Bisons
Coach: John Campbell
2008 overall record: 4-6
2008 region record (place): 4-4 (fifth)
Playoff results: Did not qualify for District 10 Class AA tournament.
Top players lost: OL/DL Joe McIntire, RB/LB Blake Hockett, QB/DB Colin Feeney, RB/LB Cody Breon, RB/DB Trevor Cragle, WR/LB Zach Kavchak.
Top underclassmen: OL/DL Matt Kowle, QB/WR/DB B.J. Arrowsmith, RB/DL Richie Kolesar, TE/DE Brandon Bradney, TE/DB Danny Kress, OL/DL Danny Alexander, OL/DL Andrew Enterline, TE/DL Mike Finchio, K Adam Nass.
Key games: Oct. 2 Fairview, Oct. 16 North East, Oct. 24 at General McLane, Oct. 30 Harbor Creek
Outlook: Coach John Campbell begins his fifth season at LeBoeuf seeking a replacement for 1,000-yard running back Blake Hockett, one of District 10′s elite during the 2008 regular season. Campbell shouldn't be short of candidates, given he expects at least 50 students at camp and the Bisons' time-tested habit of running the ball. Richie Kolesar is the early choice as Hockett's successor. Kolesar only rushed for 226 yards as a junior, but averaged more than four yards per attempt. … LeBoeuf graduated two starters on its offensive line, including all-region pick Joe McIntire. A plus in that area is the return of Matt Kowle, another all-region pick. The Bisons' roster listed Kowle at 314 pounds. … Another plus for LeBoeuf's line play could be versatile tight end Brandon Bradney, who can block and also makes for an inviting target for projected quarterback B.J. Arrowsmith. … The Bisons catch a small break with only four road games this fall. Their non-region matchup with St. Marcellinus marks the second straight season they'll host the Mississauga, Ontario, school.

If you love the food that Bruno's GastroTruck offers, or the beer at Parkway Brewing Company in Salem, you may be interested in how they are working together this weekend.
Bruno Silva explains, "Breweries and food trucks make good partners. They work together nationally. Big cities and bigger towns are finding success. We are trying to do the same in Southwest Virginia."
That local partnership will extend to Haiti with the help of Dr. Adam Sarbin. He has been a part of a team helping people in Haiti for the last four years.
The list of support is endless, including a partnership with Angel Missions Haiti, and now more community members are getting involved by planning the first Support Project Starfish Haiti event.
The ultimate goal of holding the event at Parkway Brewing Company is to help Project Starfish grow and expand to serve people in Haiti more than just one week a year.
Dr. Sarbin says, "We hope we can turn this into and organization that can help on a broader scale, and with that we created the name of our organization and have started to pursue a bigger presence."
Silva says,"It is all about being local and helping each other."
With 25 percent of all proceeds going to help people who are still struggling three years after this quake, any money raised will help and is worth celebrating.
Support Project Star Fish Haiti is this Sunday June 23rd at Parkway Brewing Company in Salem at 1:00p. Ben Trout will be on hand providing entertainment. Twenty five percent of the proceeds will help Project Starfish with future trips to help people in Haiti.

Not so fast on Obama revolving door policy
By Angie Drobnic Holan
Published on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 at 4:40 p.m.
When we launched the Obameter a week ago, we said we would periodically revisit our rulings on President Obama's campaign promises to see if an item needed to be updated. We figured that occasionally we'd even have to change a Promise Kept to a Compromise or a Promise Broken because of new information. That's what we're doing today.
On his first full day in office, Obama signed an executive order that toughened rules for former lobbyists, requiring them to wait two years before serving in an agency which they lobbied. That seemed like a slam dunk on his promise, and we quickly rated it Promise Kept.
But we've already had cause to revisit the issue. The order includes a waiver clause and the Obama administration has indicated it wants to give a waiver to a lobbyist for a big defense contractor who has been nominated as deputy secretary of defense.
For now, we find the waiver clause is enough for us to move the Obameter from Promise Kept to Compromise, and we'll be watching to see if it merits additonal action later. Read our entire item on Obama's Campaign Promise No. 240 , "Tougher rules against revolving door for lobbyists and former officials."

Sense of Evilby Kay Hooper
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Kay Hooper is the brightest new star of suspense fiction. Now the New York Times bestselling author whos built a reputation for keeping her readers pulse in the red zone delivers a thriller that will stun the senses—all six of them. This time a psychic special agent and a gritty cop must stop a brutal killer with a chilling M.O. and an unstoppable...Sense of Evil.
The victims are always the same: beautiful, successful, and blond. Someone was able to coax these intelligent and confident women away from safety. Someone was able to gain their trust long enough to do the unthinkable. Their shocking murders have terrified the inhabitants of a small, peaceful town where such heinous crimes are simply not supposed to happen. Police Chief Rafe Sullivan knows he has to find answers fast before another woman is lured to her death--but Sullivan literally doesnt have a clue. And when the FBI sends one of their top profilers to help, hes more than a little surprised that his new partner is nothing like the straight-by-the-book "suit" he expects.Special Agent Isabel Adams is tough, fearless, determined, and every bit Sullivans equal. Shes also psychic. And blond.Skeptical of his new partners ability to get inside the mind of a killer, Sullivan cant deny that Isabel has tuned in to the killers wavelength, is following the twisted thoughts of a murderer obsessed with stalking, seduction, and death. But in getting so close, Isabel has set herself up as the next victim. Now, with time running out, she and Rafe will find themselves forced to take the greatest risk of all, because this psychopath is playing for keeps and Isabel is the perfect trophy. Unable to turn back, Isabel may have already gone too far. Smart, savvy, and confident, she may find that the very qualities that have kept her alive could turn out to be her undoing. For Isabel has entered the world of a cold-blooded monster who kills without mercy and eludes every sense but one...the sense of evil.
In Hooper's latest "New York Times" bestseller set in a small Southern town, someone is leading several beautiful, successful blondes to their bloody deaths. But the FBI agent responding to Sheriff Rafe Sullivan's call is far from a buttoned-down "suit." Isabel Adams is a psychic--and she's blonde.

Gasoline prices expected to keep droppingBy JONATHAN FAHEY
The Associated Press | September 29,2013Toby Talbot / AP Photos
A motorist fills up Friday in Montpelier, Vt. The average price for regular gas across the nation dropped 17 cents in September. Vermont prices are typically higher than the national average, which was $3.44 per gallon at the end of last week.Gasoline prices have fallen steadily throughout September, and drivers should look forward to even cheaper fill-ups in the weeks ahead.
The national average price for a gallon of gasoline is now $3.44, down from $3.59 on Sept. 1. The price is the lowest its been at this time of year since 2010 and is likely to keep falling.
Meanwhile, Vermonts average gas price at the end of last week was $3.63, with many stations selling in the $3.40s in the southern part of the state, according to VermontGasPrices.com.
Its a lay-up for me to predict lower prices until Columbus Day weekend, says Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst at GasBuddy.com and Oil Price Information Service, which tracks retail and wholesale gasoline prices.
Wholesale gasoline prices have fallen faster in recent days than pump prices, so drivers can expect to pay even less as the pump prices catch up.
Gas prices tend to fall soon after Labor Day, but last year they didnt start dropping until mid-October. There are a few reasons for this falls decline in price, experts say:
Refiners can switch to cheaper blends of gasoline in the winter months as clean-air rules are relaxed.
Demand for gas declines in the fall after the summer driving season ends.
At the same time, supplies rise because refiners are still making gasoline as they keep operations humming to make heating oil for winter and diesel and jet fuel for shippers.
Refineries have been relatively problem-free compared with last year. No hurricanes, and few unexpected problems at refineries or pipelines.
Even relatively high oil prices havent stopped gasolines decline.
Oil briefly topped $112 in August as a U.S. threat of military action against Syria made the market nervous about supplies. Oil has fallen from those highs but stayed above $100 per barrel, yet gasoline has fallen to its lowest price since Jan. 31.MORE IN This Just InA Rutland jury has returned a verdict in favor of a retired obstetrician and Rutland Regional...

Land Rover is taking fuel economy concerns with a stiff upper lip and a cup of tea, relaxed as it starts taking UK orders for its 45 mpg 2015 Range Rover SDV6 Hybrid flagship starting in September 2013. The first customer deliveries are expected in early 2014, wearing far fewer off-road accessories and prepared for a life of luxury.
This pair of test prototypes is enduring the opposite of luxury: a 10,000-mile durability journey from Land Rover headquarters in England to Tata Group 's home base in Mumbai. Called the Silk Trail 2013 experience, the plucky Brits seem to have forgotten their own maritime excellence, and the blue part of the map that has long been the best passage to India.
Calling it the Silk Trail is more accurate than its other description, the Silk Road. Mud up to the door mirrors cannot stop the Range Rover Hybrid's mission.
Going over land is a bold undertaking, and also highlights the production 2015 Range Rover Hybrid's fuel economy and off-road credentials along the way. Arriving in Mumbai around 55 days later, taking a brand new Range Rover into dozens of foreign countries along the way is certainly a vote of confidence in its reliability - long a sore spot for this advanced machine.
A 3.0-liter diesel engine is paired with a jumbo 35kWh Li-ion battery pack, which is fully production-ready and will also be rolled out on the seven-seat 2015 Range Rover Sport SDV6 Hybrid as well.
The diesel-electric power is not exactly peachy news for U.S. Range Rover devotees, but the technology package should work well with Land Rover 's new 3.0-liter supercharged V-6 as well.
Updated 09/13/2013: When Land Rover launched the first details on the Range Rover Hybrid everyone believed it will be an European-only model. However, in a recent interview Andy Goss, the current CEO of Jaguar Land Rover USA confirmed that a North American version of the Range Rover hybrid "It's not a matter of 'if,' but 'when.'"

CATEGORIES Action, Warner Brothers, Home Entertainment, Features, CinematicalOf all the big-budget period-piece mega-spectacles that arose in the wake of Gladiator (including Alexander, King Arthur and Kingdom of Heaven), the one I enjoyed most was Wolfgang Petersen's Troy. I know the thing was seen as something of a disappointment to many (its Tomatometer hangs at 55%) but I found it to be a pretty compelling piece of filmmaking. Sure, sure, Brad Pitt was miscast, I agree, but it's a big fat monster of a movie and it certainly might deserve a second date with your DVD player ... especially if you have one of those massive widescreen TVs.
On the other hand, you could simply head on over to the Berlin Film Festival this Saturday and enjoy Wolfgang Petersen's all-new director's cut of Troy, which takes the 162-minute film and inserts an extra half-hour into the equation. (The loooong version will also hit German cinemas on March 23.) Whether or not the home video consumers of the world will actually embrace a 3 hour and 12 minute version of Troy remains to be seen ... but I know at least one geek who'll be checking it out. (Yes, me.) Warner Bros. hasn't announced a DVD date for this extended edition just yet, but Petersen plans to record an audio commentary and produce some new extra features as well. According to Variety, he's hoping it'll be as well-received as his (seriously awesome) Das Boot re-cut. (We're also promised a little extra sex and violence in this new version, and that's always nice.)
And just so I can clear up a little confusion: Yes, Troy cost about $180 million to produce (some say more) and yes, it only grossed about $133 million in domestic box office. It also did just over $364 million outside of North America, and that's a huge international haul. So knock the flick if you don't like it, but I certainly wouldn't call it a box office bomb. And hey, things could be worse: You could be asked to contend with the 214-minute version of Oliver Stone's Alexander!, which Ryan will be reviewing next week.
