Will Purdy was born in 1958 in lovely Colorado and has lived there his entire life. He and his wife, Georgia live in the picturesque town of Louisville, in Boulder county, Colorado. The Rocky mountains -- with purple peaks at sunset, majestic trees, herds of elk, and giant boulders "littering" the fields would make Bob Ross inspired for an eternity. Louisville is a beautiful place to live, and it's there that Will Purdy crafts each of his pipes in his cozy basement (fully furnished) workshop.
Will began making pipes, as many makers do, after purchasing a pipe kit around the year 2000. Slowly shaping away the briar with hand tools, he realized this was something that he was compelled to do again... and again, and again. Will worked slowly on his craft, getting feedback from friends in the industry in his early years. He is admittedly slow and meticulous in every step of the process, from choosing briar that is not only stunningly beautifully grained, but cured for five-to-ten years in the dry Colorado climate. Rather unique to Will Purdy pipes, each piece has the mortise and airway drilled at the same time, meaning there are no gaps, angles or ramps in the shank (Will likes the straight drill). Each stem and tenon is turned from a vulcanite rod; no Delrin or other tenon accessory is used. Needless to say the way Will Purdy slowly shapes and designs each pipe in his comfortable home with beautiful surroundings is something of a rarity. There is no rush. When the pipe is finished and stamped, you can be sure Will is ready for someone to enjoy if for a lifetime.

The material and size of the platter was good but I did not like it because the detail of the turkey did not stand out. It was too flat and blended with the background.
Every new bride needs a turkey platter because some day, she is going to be the one serving that big Thanksgiving dinner to the family. Bought this one for my new grand daughter to be as one of her bridal shower gifts. The fact that it is white with no other color on it, means it can be used with any other color/s on the table. Great buy!

The type of resume you create is generally related to the position that you are applying. Keep in mind, that many people have more than one type of resume and it is tailored to the position(s) that you may choose to apply for.

If you are injured in an accident involving a commercial vehicle in New Jersey, there are a few things you should know. While compensation in a lawsuit after an accident with another automobile is many times limited by law and the kind of insurance you have selected to cover your car, this law does not apply when a commercial vehicle has caused an accident.
New Jersey is a unique state. It has the greatest motor vehicle density in the country. That is, it has a high population per square mile, and a great number of vehicles. It's not surprising that there are a lot of motor vehicle accidents, including accidents in Sussex County, Union County, Morris County and Hunterdon County. Not only that, many of our roads were built before the automobile, and are narrow and winding. This can make for dangerous driving, especially for larger vehicles. Additionally, many interstate and state highway crisscross our state, lending themselves to high speed travel and a lot of stop and go congestion on the roads.
Throw in the pressure some businesses put on their commercial drivers, and the speed, traffic congestion and distractions can lead to serious and fatal accidents. Truck driver negligence, or the bad practices of the trucking company can mean legal liability.
The law mentioned above is New Jersey's "Limitation on Lawsuit Threshold." Which is carried by most auto owners in New Jersey. Insurance Companies do not explain what it means and insurance agents and brokers are legally exempt from liability for failing to explain what it means. It means you can be severely restricted in your ability to recover non-economic damages (that is, pain, suffering, limitation of motion, change in life style, and other injuries).
It mandates that unless you prove you have suffered permanent injury, in a way prescribed by the New Jersey Auto Insurance statute, you have no right to recover from the person who injured you in a car accident. It applies to personal vehicles including motorcycles. It can be very difficult to obtain financial compensation. You need an attorney who knows the statutory law and the cases interpreting that law to tell you whether you can expect to successfully make a claim or file a lawsuit in your particular circumstances. Many times it takes months before we know. In the meantime, you have legal advice and counsel, and the insurance company will not take advantage of you.
However, the "Limitation on Lawsuit "(LT) law does not apply when a commercial vehicle (with a "commercial" license plate) has caused your injuries. The word "commercial" is actually stamped on the plate and visible. There will usually be an "X" as part of the license plate number. If you were injured in an accident with any truck, van, or even SUV or pickup truck with such a plate the limitation probably will not apply.
Contact me for further information on your potential claim or case.
It is a rare attorney that is willing to jump in the car and drive across the state to meet with you. But I know that many injured people are now without a vehicle, or the ability to drive. A prescription drug may prevent you from driving. I have a reputation for responding to clients who need me, wherever in New Jersey they are. Call me about your case and I will meet with you wherever it is necessary.
My clients tell me that I have a comforting presence and a talent for teaching non-lawyers about the law "in plain English." I provide personal, responsive service to each client, answering all questions and phone calls promptly and clearly. You will never feel left in the dark. I know that this may be uncharted territory for you, and I need to supply enough information so you can feel comfortable with the process.
To schedule a free consultation, call 908-233-5800 or contact my office online. I will charge you no attorney fees unless I recover money for you.

One Upstate lawmaker is making a push to bring a big gun manufacturer to South Carolina, after the company threatened to leave its headquarters in Colorado.
Magpul Industries, based in Erie, CO, concentrates on selling bullet magazines for high-powered rifles. Their most popular magazine, which accounts for half of its sales, is a 30-round magazine designed for AR-15, M-4, and M-16 firearms.
But if some Colorado lawmakers have their way, the sale or possession of those magazines could be outlawed in that state.
And Rep. Jeff Duncan, of Laurens, said he sees this as an opportunity.
"All I'm saying is you won't find a better environment than South Carolina," Duncan said. "We would love to have you."
Duncan has written a letter to Magpul saying they should consider a move to South Carolina.
It might sound like a political ploy, but it's not far-fetched.
Lawmakers in Colorado opposed to the legislation said, "You may be well intentioned with this legislation, however, the loophole that exists is in the heart of man."
"There's a tremendous economic impact on the local communities," said Duncan. "It's not just the businesses themselves, it's all the support business."
Magpul's economic impact to the state of Colorado is expected to be $85 million this year. The company employs around 200 people, with 400 more as suppliers and subcontractors.
Duncan said if Colorado doesn't want that, then Magpul should come to a place that needs the jobs and the money - and is already quite friendly to the firearm industry.
"We already have Fabricate Nationale in Columbia," said Duncan. "They make firearms there. We got firearm manufacturers in South Carolina. We've got plastic injector and other companies like Magpul makes, so we'd love to have them anywhere in the state."
FOX Carolina reached out to Magpul tonight for a comment on the letter. So far, our calls have not been returned.

Hanging Rocks Observatory
Watch Birds Of Prey Migrate In Monroe County
Hanging Rock Raptor Observatory on Peter's Mountain in Monroe
County, West Virginia, is a former fire tower now used to monitor raptor migration.
Every year, starting around the first of September, volunteers man the tower to
watch for migrating hawks, eagles, falcons, and ospreys. The building was built in 1956, was destroyed by fire on February 10, 1996. It was rebuilt in the summer of 1997 using the original plans.

Goodness, the Boston Red Sox are a mess. After their meltdown at the end of 2011, they hired Bobby Valentine to replace Terry Francona as manager; there was also a change in the executive suite, with a new GM, Ben Cherington.
This season has been nothing short of a disaster in Boston. They're 12 games under .500 for the first time in 15 years (even then, they made a late-season recovery to 78-84, something not likely to happen this year), and could finish in last place for the first time in 80 years.
This, just three years after a run of eight playoff seasons out of 12, with two World Series titles.
Red Sox owner John Henry and Cherington took a trip to Seattle -- purportedly "pre-planned" -- to discuss the managerial situation with Valentine. They said it wasn't to fire Valentine, and indeed, he's still employed by Boston as of Tuesday. (Interestingly, team president Larry Lucchino was not part of this trip.)
... the fact is that while Valentine appears to be safe for the remainder of the season — though neither Henry nor Cherington ever actually said that was the case — his future remains in doubt.
Cherington, in fact, said he is somewhat to blame for this bad road trip (0-7 after a 4-1 loss to the Mariners on Monday) because of the roster he left Valentine with after The Trade. But we all know that Cherington is going nowhere. And he knows it, too.
Regardless of the comments made by any of the parties involved, it doesn't seem likely that Valentine will survive past the end of this season as Red Sox manager. It appears to be one of the worst managerial fits for a team in recent years, on both the part of the team and the individual. At Yahoo, Jeff Passan sums up the situation:
The sadness in his voice and language following the finale of the $55 million Oakland A's sweeping Boston in embarrassing fashion over the weekend belonged to a man who finally understood the enormity of his miscalculation. Somehow, for months, Valentine had come to work with this truth: the vast majority of his clubhouse straight-up disliked him, and the rest of the players didn't respect him. The depth of his denial, or the power of his belief in his own ability, is in hindsight staggering. Valentine has been around long enough to understand players can coalesce around a manager they don't like. This team had done the opposite.
I'm reminded here of a quote from Hall of Fame manager Casey Stengel:
The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.
In Valentine's case, it appears that pretty much everyone in the Red Sox clubhouse has already decided, and they all hate him. So who, then, should manage the Red Sox next year? Valentine is under contract for 2013, but that likely wouldn't stop Boston from making a change. Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal thinks the Red Sox should bring back Terry Francona:
Cherington likely will play a greater role in the hiring of the next manager, and he probably would want his own man rather than Francona, the Sequel. Indeed, some would view the mere pursuit of Francona as a typical Red Sox PR grab, missing the point.
The exercise would be painful for ownership, almost an exercise in self-flagellation. And you know what the kicker might be? Francona, recharged after a year at ESPN, would be a top candidate for other jobs, and wouldn't necessarily say yes.
As Rosenthal writes, Francona's more likely to take a different managing job than return to Boston. That's understandable given the drama surrounding the team and the fact that they probably have to go through a rebuilding process after the blockbuster trade with the Dodgers. Rosenthal made a couple of suggestions for possible hires, including Tony La Russa (very unlikely) and former Red Sox catcher Jason Varitek (who'd be a hire along the lines of the Cardinals' Mike Matheny and the White Sox' Robin Ventura, both of whom have had fine seasons after having never before managed).
So, given the near-certainty of Valentine's dismissal after the season, who should manage the Red Sox in 2013? Vote in the poll.

Rob Jordan has heard of too many tragedies on Lake Lanier.
"Alcohol is a big problem," Jordan said. "Boats and jet skis don't have brakes, and when you add alcohol to the mix, it's not a safe situation to be in."
Georgia House lawmakers Wednesday passed a bill that, supporters contend, will make Georgia's waterways safer.
Senate Bill 136 would lower the blood alcohol level for boating under the influence to the same limit as driving under the influence.
Jordan, a fishing guide on the lake, said he would welcome tougher restrictions.
"Passing stricter laws will be better for all of us here on the lake," Jordan said.
The bill is named after Kile Glover as well as Jake and Griffin Prince.
The two brothers died after a man accused of boating while drunk slammed into their boat.
Glover, the son of the ex-wife of pop-star Usher, was killed after a personal watercraft plowed into the raft he was on. Alcohol was not a factor in that case.
State Rep. Chad Nimmer, who sponsored the bill in the House, said the proposal would lower the blood alcohol level for piloting a boat and for hunting down to 0.08, the same as for driving drunk.
"This bill will prevent tragedies from happening," Nimmer said. "As a dad, it tells me I'm doing what I can to help protect my children and other children in Georgia as well as adults who enjoy the waterways."
State Sen. Butch Miller sponsored the bill in his chamber of the assembly after Gov. Nathan Deal urged lawmakers to introduce and pass such legislation.
The bill goes back to the Senate for approval.

For the universe is a dangerous place for humanity - and it's about to become far more dangerous. Three races that humans have clashed with before have allied to halt our expansion into space. Their linchpin: the turncoat military scientist Charles Boutin, who knows the CDF's biggest military secrets. To prevail, the CDF most find out why Boutin did what he did.
Jared Dirac is the only human who can provide answers - a superhuman hybrid, created from Boutin's DNA, whose brain is uniquely able to access Boutin's electronic memories. But when the memory transplant appears to fail, Jared is given over to the Ghost Brigades.
Jared begins as one of these perfect soldiers, but as memories begin to surface, he begins to intuit the reason's for Boutin's betrayal.
As Jared desperately hunts for his "father", he must also come to grips with his own choices. Time is running out: the alliance is preparing its offensive, and some of them plan worse things than humanity's mere military defeat.

"Solid....[Scalzi] sidesteps most of the cliches of military science fiction, delivers fast-paced scenes of combat and pays attention to the science underpinning his premise." (San Francisco Chronicle)
Tell us about yourself!
"Great story"
This is a nice followup to Old Man's War. Scalzi again creates a great ride, that is deeply enjoyable and with great characters.
It helps to have read Old Man's War, but you could pick this one up and start here. This story takes place a few years after the events in Old Man's War. Jane Sagan is a Lt in the Ghost Brigades and assigned to the Kite. She uncovers a plot against the Colonial Union, and that there is a traitor helping out the enemies plotting against the Union. Most of the story follows the rather unusual method they use to track down the traitor... Very well written, held my attention throughout.
"If you liked..."
If you liked OMW, then you'll like The Ghost Brigades. It's fast paced sci-fi military action with a mystery element. The protagonist is compelling & sympathetic. Some characters from OMW also play an important part.
"A good sequel"
A fun listen and worthy successor to "Old Man's War". Scalzi writes his books with a very Heinlein'esque feel...in a good way.
I LOVE books. And dogs & quilting & beading & volunteering.
"Second chapter in "Old Mans War" Very Good"
This novel is down to earth, to paraphrase a trite and incorrect saying I guess, shoot 'em up Si Fi. I agree with other reviewers, though, and think I'd rather have read this novel instead of listening to it. Some authors,who do an excellent job of writing tight dialogue as Scalzi does, use "He said", " She said' a lot. A lot... A lot.... It gets redundant and a bit tiresome to listen to but isn't bad when it's being read...Lee Child's Jack Reacher books are the same way.
However, as I did download the book, I continued to listen and finally got accustomed to the redundancy as annoying as it could become. I know this is the terse way Scalzi writes and I enjoy hearing William Dufris narration during the exciting parts sufficiently that it's worth listening.
Neither of the protagonists from "Old Mans War" follow us into "The Ghost Brigades" and it took a bit of a getting used to for me but I quickly grew to appreciate the new character, who was as well developed a character as John Perry over the books length and who I really connected with.
A new secondary character is introduced as a child in the end of this book, Zoe, who becomes important in the winding up of the series. The book becomes quite complicated as regards who is related to who about 2/3 of the way thru the book and it's important to keep things straight. If you can.
I also really really like the way Scalzi writes the characters of his aliens. They aren't faux humans but instead are actually alien in thought, mental processes, culture and looks as any alien I've read previously. It's simply superb and I admire the individual books and the development of the series. I think I'm going to be sad to have it end-and have already bought the last 3 books.
And about those books. The ending of "The Ghost Brigades" is an ideal place to listen to Scalzi's hour long short story, ""The Sagan Diary". This was written after the series was finished to fulfill an obligation and fleshes out the character Jane Sagan, who is reintroduced in "The Last Colony" , is written from the female first person point of view and, IMO, is one of Scazis best pieces of writing. He does a fantastic job of interpretation a woman's deepest thoughts as she writes her diary, including a slightly steamy sexual chapter. Not to be missed.
John Scalzi..your writing is really beginning to grow and I hope you have years of excellent work ahead of you.
"Good read, bad listen"
John Scalzi's style of writing does not make a good audio book. Every sentence starts with or ends with 'he said' or 'she said'. To the point where I dreaded conversations.
"Not the best for Reading aloud."
The text is great fun and the narrator does a very good job. My one and only complaint is more about the John Scalzi's style of writing. His repetitive use of "he said", "she said" can very be passed while reading, isn't so easy to ignore when read aloud. It was noticeable the whole way through but only near annoying a few instances.
Fantasy/Sci-Fi Fan
"Starts slow but comes together in the end."
The Ghost Brigades is the second book in the Old Man's War series and although it is a relatively stand-alone story the first book provides some necessary background context and I recommend you read it first. In book 1 the main character is CDF soldier John Perry and the Special Forces play a secondary role, but in this book the Special Forces take over the main storyline and there are just a few occasional references to John Perry.
Jane Sagan returns from the first book and provides some continuity for a host of new characters, including Special Forces solider Jared Dirac. The story starts off in a disjointed way as events occur without much explanation as to why they matter, but then it all comes together in the end to set the stage for Jared to make some interesting moral choices. Scalzi reveals a lot more about the various non-human races and gives a glimpse into the galactic politics faced by humanity. As the actions of the CDF on this grand stage are slowly revealed to him, Jared has to sort out the truth from the half-truth and decide if the CDF that created him is good or bad for human-kind. Does he have an obligation to protect humanity as he was bred to do or is he just a disposable slave being used to move forward a hidden CDF agenda?
Although the book can be predictable at times it is still enjoyable science fiction and reveals just enough about the bigger picture to encourage you to move on to the next book in the series which I plan to do. William Dufris does a decent job as narrator even if though he is forced to utter "he said" "she said" a few too many times. If you enjoyed the first book then you can confidently spend a credit to give this one a listen.

"Old Man's War Continues...."
Originally posted at FanLit.
The Ghost Brigades is the second novel in John Scalzi's OLD MAN'S WAR saga. It focuses on the Ghost Brigades — the Special Forces soldiers that the Colonial Union (CU) creates by genetic engineering and who have special powers because of the BrainPal computers in their heads. They're born in adult bodies and are rapidly assimilated into the Special Forces, though they are a little immature because of their mental age and they lack some of the personality and social skills that come from interaction with "real-born" people in a normal environment. The Ghost Brigades give the regular CU soldiers the heebee-jeebees.
In this story the Colonial Union has discovered the existence of a traitorous scientist, Charles Boutin, who has faked his death by cloning himself and has aligned himself with three alien species who plan to wipe out the humans. Part of his motivation is that he blames the CU for the death of his daughter Zoe who was on a planet the CU blew up. Boutin is helping the aliens by giving them information about Special Forces' BrainPals. This will allow them to have such technology themselves and perhaps find a way to hack into the BrainPals of the Special Forces soldiers.
This is not good; Boutin must be stopped. When Special Forces discover a source for Boutin's DNA and his consciousness which he uploaded for safe keeping, they decide to clone him so they can have a soldier who may have Boutin's memory and who may think like Boutin. (They realize that this could go badly awry.) And so they create Jared Dirac and it's up to Jared to stop his "father." Commander Jane Sagan (who we remember from Old Man's War), is skeptical and worried that instead of catching a traitor, they may be creating another one.
The Ghost Brigades is an exciting story with lots of action, cool ideas, and some of John Scalzi's humor (but not as much as in Old Man's War). Scalzi takes the opportunity to make us think about nature vs. nurture, free will, the role of the environment on personality formation, the ethics of cloning, the role of consciousness in the arts, and the relationship between brain, mind and soul.
Scalzi also decides to throw some mud in the water. At this point in the OLD MAN'S WAR story, it's becoming clear that war is a murky business. Are we supposed to be rooting for the Colonial Union? They've got some seriously questionable ethics and our villain is somewhat sympathetic. Has Earth been mistreating her soldiers and/or holding back human technological development? I look forward to learning more in the next book, The Last Colony and its companion, Zoe's Tale.
I'm reading the audio version of OLD MAN'S WAR which is mostly narrated by William Dufris who, as usual, gives a stellar performance. I recommend this series on audio.
"Blah blah filler"
I'll try...
Too much blah blah dialogue. Clique plot. Simple characters.
Performance was Ok' "he said, she said, he said, she said, he said, she said"
Not really, your not missing much but not reading it.
A real let down, Old Mans war was funny, original, exciting, full of surprises.
Its sequel was dull, bland, and at times obnoxious.
Gen-Xer, software engineer, and lifelong avid reader. Soft spots for sci-fi, fantasy, and history, but I'll read anything good.
"Not without weaknesses, but entertaining"
Scalzi's science fiction world is a bit derivative, but this and Old Man's War are entertaining reads that contain enough moral dilemmas to be interesting, but don't take themselves too seriously. Picture a more tongue-in-cheek version of Starship Troopers or Ender's Game.
Scalzi's special forces soldiers, born into adult bodies with preprogrammed, networked minds, are intriguing characters, and the scenes in which Scalzi examines their childlike personalities are both humorous and surprisingly touching. Other times, the story devolves into a straight shoot-em-up with cliched dialogue and inane science, but the author does use plot effectively and got me involved in the characters enough to keep turning the pages.

Browning X-Bolt
Anyone own or ever owned a Browning X-Bolt? If so what are your thoughts on this rifle. I grew up around Winchester Model 70's but looked at a Browning Stainless Stalker and I have to say it felt extremely good.
Re: Browning X-Bolt
Have a friend who got one to use this year. Accuracy is great but I'm not impressed with the composite stock with the dull black finish. I told him for around $1000.00 I'd want a better lookin (walnut) stock. His stock still looks better than my beat up walnut stock though. Good trigger pull too. A bit heavy pull but extremely smooth. @ 250 yds he groups less than 3/4 ". He has the 30-06. I'm sure you would be quite happy with it. Not sure of the weight but seems light enough to carry all day. Get it and let us know. Grump

Re: Browning X-Bolt
I agree on the dull composite stock. Looked at the medallion with a walnut stock and it was impressive and 50 dollars cheaper. Since this gun will be my sons Christmas present ( he should thank his mother because she won a drawing) I think I will go with the composite stock. Will let you know after Christmas how it performs.

For Arizona Cardinals players left wondering who will be their next leader, there's only one thing to do: wait.
The Phoenix Suns will have a chance for their 2000th franchise victory this weekend against the Jazz and Grizzlies.
Looks like the timing of his interviews played a huge part in Andy Reid becoming the Chiefs next head coach.
Cain Velasquez was closer to playing on the gridiron of Sun Devil Stadium than most realize.
Don't worry, we decided to put up a picture of angry Ken Whisenhunt instead of making you guys rehash that terrible catch.
At least Todd Haley knows Ron Jaworski is a fan of his work.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Jason Kubel doesn't seem too phased by all the trade talk lately.
It doesn't appear as if Andy Reid will be the next head coach of the Arizona Cardinals as he is reportedly close to a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Apparently Bill Snyder is trying to limit the Fiesta Bowl's offensive fireworks. What a party-pooper...

A man captured in a police sting trying to lure a 12-year-old girl into his pickup in the South Side Brighton Park neighborhood was sentenced to two years in prison Monday after pleading guilty to child luring.
On Nov. 7, 2012, at about 7:30 a.m., Alberto Rangel, then 38, pulled up alongside the girl in and started talking to her as she walked to school in the 2700 block of West 38th Street, according to Chicago Police.
Rangel then gave the girl his phone number and asked her to call him, but the girl told school administrators, who contacted police. Area Central detectives devised a sting operation in which an undercover officer, posing as the girl, contacted Rangel via text message to set up a rendezvous, according to police.
Rangel was arrested on Nov. 24 when he showed up to meet the girl. He was charged with one felony count of child luring, and misdemeanor counts of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, according to police.
On Monday, Rangel, of the 3000 block of South Hamlin Avenue, pleaded guilty to luring and Judge Stanley Sacks sentenced him to two years in prison, according to Cook County State's Attorney's office spokeswoman Tandra Simonton.

The Buying a Camera Open Thread
With all the talk lately that we should be ready to take pictures of Democrat wrongdoings, I'm wondering if I should get a camera myself. My Blackberry can take pictures, but the pictures it takes would be too blurry to be of much use in a political scrap. So, I put it to the crowd: What are the options?

Daly: Surbiton must take things step-by-step
4:52pm Thursday 20th March 2014 in Sport By Stuart Amos
London 2012 Olympian Matt Daly reckons Surbiton are not getting ahead of themselves when it comes to their MHL Premier Division play-off ambitions.
Daly, right, smashed home four goals in the last 20 minutes of Saturday's clash at Cannock as the Sugden Road side came back from 4-1 down to win 6-4.
Team boss James Lloyd's men have smashed home 30 goals in winning four of their past six league games to secure a top-four finish and land a shot
at the championship title.
Surbiton are also preparing for the knock-out stages of the EuroHockey League over Easter and Daly insisted qualifying for next year's competition remained the only priority.
"Our first goal at the start of the season was to make the play-offs," said the Great Britain international.
"Now we are there, if we win the first game we automatically qualify for Europe.
"It would be great to win the league, but we have to be realistic. You can only build on these things step-by-step.
"The experience we gain this year will prepare us for the next and so on."
Surbiton trailed 3-0 and then 4-1 in the Midlands before Daly got his first in the 50th minute and then added three more in the last 12 minutes after Alan Forsyth claimed his side's third goal.
Surbiton, with Forsyth and Daly hitting a rich vein of form, are in full stride with the season's climax fast approaching.
But the 30-year-old Kingston Grammar School teacher insisted it would be the strength of their squad that will see them through.
"This season has been the same as last year pretty much in that we are just starting to gel," he added.
"The internationals probably played the same amount of games last year, but instead they are not coming back from training and tournaments tired.
"As always it will be the strength of the squad that will decide who wins the league."
Surbiton host East Grinstead in Sunday's final game of the regular season.

Naugatuck officials are due to budget problems. thinks the kids end up losing.
"I can't believe this is continued again, enough is enough. I'm sure it's costing us taxpayers every time she goes to court and each time it's pushed off to another court date. Why is it if we don't pay our taxes on time we get notices and interest upon late fees but she just gets to keep going on with her normal daily activities? Meanwhile all the money she took is getting spent faster than ever, the longer this goes on the less money there's going to be to recover." A former Oxford tax collector is . wants swift justice.
"Senators Rubio and Lieberman are part of what Ike called the 'military-industrial complex.' Every day they look for new opportunities to make war (and money). Yesterday it was Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya. Today it is Iran and Syria. Their use or words like 'unthinkable' and 'unacceptable' is merely a prelude to death and deficits. Neither one ever served in the military." In an article about local politicians, takes aim at outgoing Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida.

Last Minute Cabin Deals
Looking for cheap cabin rentals? Awesome. The only thing better than a cabin getaway is a surprise cabin getaway! You're in for a lot of fun and a lot of savings. Compared to a hotel, a cabin offers up a lot more space, amenities, and views. But for less. If you're getting away with a family or big group of friends, why squeeze everyone into one tiny hotel room or book several expensive hotel rooms? Instead, sprawl out in a luxury cabin with a fireplace, hot tub, and full kitchen. If, on the other hand, you're getting away with just your sweetie, a cabin is still the way to go. Don't trade in the unique memories and comforts of a cabin for the forgettable feel of a hotel room.
Owners of vacation homes all over the world offer up cancellation specials and last minute deals. From Pigeon Forge to Smoky Mountain cabins, we have it all. So, if you're okay with a spur-of-the-moment vacation, your dollar will go far. When you take advantage of a last minute deal, the value of booking a cabin becomes even more irresistible. So, let's get started. Here's your guide to where and when to book the best last minute cabin deals:
- Map View
- Cabin Destination Guides: California, Colorado, Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin

The Golden State. Beaches lined with surfer dudes and bikinis. Luxurious lakes. The Hollywood sign.... and the Rocky Mountains and Redwood tress that dwarf it. Last minute cabins in California sure are crowd-pleasing, and thankfully last minute cabin deals are widely available:
- Big Bear: The lake is hopping all summer long, while the mountains really shine in the winter (cross-country skiing is just as popular as boating here). With 300 days of sunshine, and tons to do inside and outside your cabin, Big Bear is always a good idea. Any time of year. For anyone.
- Lake Arrowhead: Big Bear may have more up its sleeves for vacationers than the resort community of Lake Arrowhead, but if you're looking for a quieter getaway, a cabin here is your better bet.
- Lake Tahoe: There are no bored tourists here, a four-season destination with a sparkling lake surrounded by the 10,000-foot Sierra Nevada Mountains. Favorite cabin destinations here include, but are hardly limited to:
- Mammoth Lakes: Whether you head here in the winter for the relatively uncrowded Mammoth Mountain ski resort, or in the summer for the fishing, hiking and horseback riding, better head to a cabin!
- Yosemite: A cabin will give you easy access to the sprawling Yosemite National Park, the third most visited park in the country.
This is the state where the Rocky Mountains climb to their highest elevations. Talk about mountain views!
- Breckenridge: This ski town has lots of great shops and historic sites to explore, too.
- Durango: Next to skiing, the San Juan National Forest and the 19th century Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, offering up open air tours, are the main tourist draws.
- Estes Park: This is the favorite day trip for city-weary Denver residents.
- Pagosa Springs: From the Wolf Creek Ski area to the San Juan River hot springs, this overlooked destination has lot of great cabin deals.
This mountainous state also happens to sit along the Atlantic Coast, is home to a handful of barrier islands, and then there's Atlanta. In sum, a trip to Georgia can be whatever you want it to be. Search for last minute cabin deals in the following destinations:
- Blairsville: This peaceful, down-to-earth destination is big on outdoor activity.
- Blue Ridge: Book a cabin here for the easiest access to the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.
- Ellijay: Like many of these popular cabin vacations, outdoor adventure is king here. However, here you can mix things up with a winery tour or game of golf.
North Carolina
From the Blue Ridge Mountains to the Smoky Mountains to the Outer Banks, this US state has an unbeatable variety of scenery. And it's best taken in from the deck of your cabin rental.
- Blue Ridge Mountains: From afar, these mountain ranges look blue (hence the name). Up close, they're even more spectacular. Home to parts of the Shenandoah National Park and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, these mountains are made for walking, hiking, and climbing. Here are the top cabin destinations in the area:
- Smoky Mountains: With family and tourist-friendly cities surrounding it, you can enjoy a nice mix of relaxation and adventure here, as well as cheap cabin rentals. Consider booking a cabin in one of these popular spots:
Philadelphia, along with tons of historic attractions, may come to mind when you think of Pennslyvania. However, there's also the Poconos mountains and many other natural sites, making cabins pretty darned popular here.
- Seven Springs: The ski resort is the star of the show here.
Nature lovers and kids are at home in Tennessee, where the Smoky Mountains beckon people out of their homes, and cheesy attractions like Dollywood are ubiquitous.
- Smoky Mountains: Book a cabin in one of these destinations and you'll be located right by the western entrances to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
Ah, the Lone Star State. You may picture cowboys riding horses here, and certainly Texas has some of those, but this sprawling state is much, much more. Some of the nation's biggest cities and best beaches are here.
- New Braunfels: This historic town is a favorite vacation spot in the summer, thanks to the river everyone tubes on, as well as the original Schlitterbahn Water Park. Meanwhile, there's Wurstfest in the fall, and antique shopping year-round.
San Juan Islands, Olympic National Forest, and good old Seattle - Washington is a state that deserves multiple vacations.
- Leavenworth: This mountain town is modeled after a Bavarian Village. Enough said!
- Mount Rainier: Cabins here are ideal if you plan to spend most your vacation exploring the Mount Rainier National Park.
- Stevens Pass: Go skiing (at night or day time) through the Cascade Mountains, and then unwind in the hot tub at your cabin afterward.
West Virginia
Cabins fit in well here. After all, West Viriginia is lovingly called "the Mountain State," as it is engulfed by the Appalachian Mountains.
- Canaan Valley: Wetlands, rivers, waterfalls, and all kinds of wildlife define this popular cabin destination.
With lakes left and right (two of them are Great Lakes), it's no surprise cabins are so popular here.
- Door County: Book a cabin along Lake Michigan for great views and easy access to outdoor recreation.
- Hayward: Enjoy the lake, but save yourself from sunburns by breaking up your trip with museums, wineries, and other indoor distractions.

FRANKLIN, Tenn. (AP) - Preservationists are working to spruce up a newly formed Civil War park in Franklin before the 150th anniversary of the battle that was fought there.
Jim Lighthizer, who is president of the Civil War Trust, said told The Tennessean that preservationists are trying to raise $120,000 to rebuild a cotton gin that once stood on a spot where some of the bloodiest fighting took place on Nov. 30, 1864.
In addition, supporters hope to tear down a restaurant and strip mall and combine that property with others to create a green space in time for the 150th anniversary of the battle.
Lighthizer said the latest purchase for the expanding park came last year.
