Virginia Tech opened Spring practice with an obvious focus on improvement on offense. Three new offensive coaches walked the turf of the Hokies indoor practice facility, but as Running backs Coach Shane Beamer explained--to the average fan the offense will be looking about the same in the early stages. The focus at this point is about fundamentals, toughness and a new mindset that will allow the Virginia Tech team to be more physical in the ACC battles to come.
Offensive Coordinator Scot Loeffler, Offensive line coach Jeff Grimes and Wr Coach Aaron Moorehead were brought in to revamp a stagnant Hokies attack. Coach Frank Beamer explains that the coaches he had were good ones, and the team won a lot of games. But the new feel and spark from the new faces might be what the team needs right now. He stressed they are new..and they do coach differently. Fair enough. There did appear to be a different vibe at practice on Wednesday.

Down 20-10 at the start of the fourth quarter, it looked like we all had a glimpse of the post-Randy Moss Patriots. QB Tom Brady had not been efficient or productive, and the young defense would not be good enough to keep the Pats in games.
Then, recently reacquired WR Deion Branch emerged, the defense stepped up and the Pats walked away with a come-from-behind victory over one of the AFC's favorites.
Branch was the star in his return to Foxborough, catching nine balls for 98 yards and the TD that sparked the comeback. He had just as many catches on Sunday as Randy Moss had in four games with the Pats before being traded.
While the offense finally found its groove late, it was the defense that helped seal the victory for New England, holding the Ravens scoreless for nearly 28 minutes — the last 14:53 of the fourth quarter and all 13:04 of overtime. Specifically, the four starting linebackers helped contain Ravens RB Ray Rice and came up huge in the win.
The PFW Spin
A couple days before the Patriots' Week Six game against the Ravens, I asked former Patriots star and current broadcaster Gino Cappelletti how the Patriots can shut down Rice, and he mentioned the linebackers. "The linebackers have been coming together quite nicely. … The linebacking situation looks like a good, developing cohesive outfit," he said. That unit did its job Sunday.
In two games against the Patriots last season (including the playoff game), Rice had 262 yards on 33 carries, an average of a little less than eight yards per carry. That includes his 83-yard TD run to open the playoff game.
On Sunday, the Patriots held him to just 88 yards on 28 carries (3.1 avg.) and kept him out of the endzone.
The star of the linebacking corps, Jerod Mayo, led the team with 18 tackles, the second-most of his career. Rookie ILB Brandon Spikes had 14 tackles, including two on special teams.
Rookie OLB Jermaine Cunningham is continuing to make his presence felt, getting more and more playing time. The Pats' best pass rusher recorded six tackles, including a sack. He also had a pass defensed and stripped Ravens QB Joe Flacco (Flacco recovered).
OLB Rob Ninkovich, who had two interceptions and a sack in Week Four, had the job of spying on Rice, consistently keeping the Ravens' back from getting past the second level when he caught balls out of the backfield. Rice had eight catches for just 38 yards. Ninkovich added two QB hits to his eight tackles.
And last but not least, undrafted rookie OLB Dane Fletcher saw his first significant playing time. Fletcher stopped Rice dead in his tracks following a reception late in the fourth quarter, and on the next play, Flacco targeted Rice again for an incomplete pass with Fletcher waiting for the hit before the first-down marker.
The starting 'backers combined for 46 tackles. It's important for this group to lead a defense that has an extremely young secondary and lots of shuffling along the D-line. With a stout Ravens defense, we saw on Sunday a game in which the Patriots' defense needed to make stops to win, something previous games made seem impossible, but if the linebackers can continue their elevated play, the Pats might not need to score so many points to win games this season.

I used your ceiling in my rec room last year it turned out great. I reordered for my kitchen, also in the basement. Both rooms are next to each other. I put a wood boarder completely around outside perimeter and hung my angle channel to it. I left three inches exposed and painted black. I used 2x2 black tile around outside and finished with geometric tile in white inside. It turned out great. Best ceiling tile to work with ever. Thanks.

ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- It's been said that the B-17 Flying Fortress helped shape World War 2 like no other aircraft. Its heavy payload, defensive armament and rugged construction allowed the Army Air Forces to eventually cripple Germany.
Its fighting days are now over. And that piece of our world history is now on a tarmac at Rochester International Airport.
Of more than 12 thousand originally built...there are only about 9 B-17 Flying Fortress planes that can still get up in the air and fly, and even fewer than that do so regularly.
It's a plane that may have changed the course of history.
"I don't think we would have won the war over Germany if we did not have this to attack them," said pilot Chris Schaich who flies the B-17.
And 70 years later...it's still flying.
"Well it's a real kick in the pants to go out and fly," Schaich said.
The Sentimental Journey still looks and flies like she would have after rolling off the assembly line in 1943 -- complete with all the guns, buttons and switches.
"Up here is the self destruct for the top secret bomb site at the time," Schaich said.
The Sentimental Journey never saw battle during World War II. The plane was built just as the war was coming to an end, but she built up years of service on military reconnaissance missions, serving as a search and rescue plane, firefighting and she had a roll in the nuclear testing at the Bikini Atoll.
"It was a mother-ship with another B-17 that was a drone and they would drive the drone B-17 through the atomic blast," Schaich said. "This airplane being many miles away would control the remote control B-17."
Since the early 1980's she's been serving her current mission as a flying museum, creating an opportunity for pilots to look back.
"I think about all the people that came before me that have flown this and what they went through," Schaich said. "It is kind of neat to think in the back of your mind that we're doing something so unique."
And giving men, women and children -- veterans, family and new generations a chance to experience, or re-experience, a history that only gets further and further away.
"You get a wide range of emotions and responses out here and they're all very different, you know some people even cry," Schaich said. "But that's part of the enjoyment of coming out here and bringing this to people so they can see it."
The plane will be out at the airport until August 4, so you still have time to get out and check it out.
You can view it from the ground for free.
An interior tour will run you $5 and if you're willing to put up $425, you can even take to the skies.

Lower in the article they said he is the 22nd overall QB, but nice to see he does well in the red zone. Now we just need to get there more often.
Hey for a rookie qb to lead other starters like Brady, Manning, etc in any category and it isn't in interceptions it is all positive. He also ranks above Lierart in overall ranking. For a sixth round draft pick to be beating out a top ten pick that says a lot. And redzone means if given the opportunity he will put it in for points. Good job Grad.Â

This is my final installment of looking into Chelsea's future at the defense, midfield, and now the attack. The current crisis were in has caused many to have random panic fits throughout the day about the future of our beloved club. However, I maintain fully that Andre Villas Boas needs time to implement his system fully and get the right players to run it. Think about it, players like Drogba, Malouda, Ivanovic, Cole, Terry, Kalou, and Mikel (the case could be argued for more) do not easily fit into AVB's system and appear to have trouble playing in the flowing football of AVB. He has put his mark on the team but in limited fashion. Mata and Meireles are both players that work well for AVB and help the system. Romeu is a brilliant ball playing holding mid that also works well in the AVB style of play. If we give him the January window (to most likely sign Cahill, De Bruyne, and possibly a right back) and the full summer. We might see a more fluent team fit to AVB's needs.
Let's start on the left wing, some think that Mata is the answer here but I believe Mata is MUCH more effective behind the strikers. LW can be easily solved by signing Kevin De Bruyne. Every time I see De Bruyne play I'm reminded of how much he'd help our attack. He smart on the ball, has a cracking shot, and plays wonderful crosses. With that relatively cheap option on the LW we can move to the center. There has been clamoring for a shiny new striker to complement our fleet, this would be wasteful and expensive. With Drogba, Torres, Lukaku, Anelka, and Sturridge all capable of playing Striker we don't need Cavani or Llorente. The only time the purchase of a center foreword should even be entertained is if Drogba and Anelka both leave (and even then we would still have three capable strikers). The more interesting situation opens up on the right wing. Sturridge has been hot and cold with his performances on the flank but has shown promise there. However, I think we need to purchase Hazard for the required 40 million and have him be the star of our attack for years to come. With Gotze most likely not up for sale we need to look elsewhere for our game-changing purchase. Hazard is where we should look. There our other options, most recently Milos Krasic of Juventus. Krasic would come very cheap due to his lack of playing time and is a great player. Fast and a good finisher. That being said I couldn't see him fitting into the system that were trying to promote. Possession football is the very reason Krasic isn't playing consistently right now.
Well there's the outlook for our attack. Now let's some it up with some figures. All prices are in the british pound.
Defense Purchases
CB: Gary Cahill- 9 Million (price down due to contract)
RB: Martin Montoya- 5 Million
LB: Alvaro Pereira- 25 Million (Would be a dumb purchase but I could see AVB doing it)
Midfield Purchases
Christian Eriksen- 32 Million
Attack Purchases
Kevin De Bruyne- 10 Million
Eden Hazard- 40 Million
Total: 121 Million over two transfer windows.
This kind of investment can successfully launch us into the next era for Chelsea.

From 1ADDICTS member and M135i owner mjh93sa:
With increasing numbers of the M-Lite on the road, and ever more people taking delivery it seemed that is was time to put together a meet with the aim of getting a few together in the same place to act geeky, compare cars, options, mpg figures and so on (as well as have a bit of a drive).
So organised primarily by TMP, and some collaborative route planning we took on the welsh valleys … CONTINUED
AC Schnitzer tunes the M135i hatchback to 360 HP. The extra power drops the 0-100kmh (0-62mph) time from 4.9 seconds to 4.7 seconds and the 80-180kmh time from 12.9 seconds to 10.8 seconds.
Here's a video demo.
The F20 / F21 M135i hatchback recently edged out the Porsche Boxster to garner Top Gear Magazine's Sports Car of the Year award.
See how the M135i accomplishes that inside.
M135i exhaust comparo put together by 1ADDICTS members, comparing the factory exhaust, BMW M Performance exhaust, and Bastuck exhaust.
Although the comparison is unexpected, its very well done! And as expected our M135i continues to steamroll and draw up the accolades from the motoring press.
Caradvice of Australia reviews the BMW M135i against a group of small sports sedans and hatchback – the Subaru WRX STI, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and Volkswagen Golf R.
Who comes out on top? They call the M135i an "obvious winner."
Here is the first M135i owners meet by 1ADDICTS members, taking place in Hong Kong. The group gathered to share in their common ownership and to see various options and colors in person.
The cars here represented 4 of the 6 colors available on the M135i in Hong Kong (only black and silver were missing).
Making its debut at the 2013 Geneva motor show is this M135i F21 hatchback, by Swiss tuner, Sportec.
Sportec's tuning program offers two stages. The first stage includes software tuning only, which upgrades the M135i's N55 power output to 355 hp (from the factory 315 hp). The second stage includes the software upgrades from Stage 1, plus downpipes and new exhaust system (with titanium tail pipes), which combine to give the M135i 370 hp.
At 370 hp, Sportec claims that the M135i's 0-62 mph (0-100 kmh) time … CONTINUED

Consider triple power backup. New York's CitiServ data center in Brooklyn -- a two-building project that is part of Mayor Michael Bloomberg's efforts to consolidate 55 city data centers into one -- stayed up throughout Sandy while managing the emergency 911 and 311 services. "We placed the facility in Brooklyn outside the hurricane flood zone, and we had a triple power backup strategy," which includes utility power, emergency generators and battery, says Rahul N. Merchant, New York's chief information and innovation officer. At the height of the storm, lights flickered briefly, but generator power kicked in seamlessly. A tank holding 200,000 gallons of diesel located on-site at the Brooklyn facility -- and topped off regularly -- powered everything for 45.5 hours before regular utility power was restored.
Re-patch and restore. In addition, the city's own fiber optic network, CitiNet, was used to restore 311 service when Verizon's cable vaults flooded and failed at downtown Manhattan nodes. "We were able to re-patch the 311 network by using our own fiber backbone and connecting it [directly] into the Verizon Central Office in Brooklyn," Merchant says.
Use sandbags. The bullet just missed when Sandy hammered at QTS's data center in Jersey City, N.J. "We were impacted by rising waters and high winds, and the water pushed up right to the edges of our building," says Brian Johnston, QTS's chief technology officer. However, the building was storm-proofed; the actual data center had been located on the 16th through 20th floors, with all power generation and logic on the same level except for electrical vaults and lines coming from the streets. "In the event we lose the vaults, everything we need transfers to UPS; and our fuel oil in 1,000-gallon fuel tanks along with electric pumps in the garage parking lot are also water-proofed," Johnston says. Though QTS temporarily lost utility power, backup generators took over, and no basement flooding occurred. Lesson: "Our skilled staff redirected waters with sand bags. We had wraps around any openings in the building and our parking center, so water couldn't come into parking garage or flood our vaults." Future plans: more flood blockers -- borrowed from hurricane protocols in Miami -- and training for IT staff in emergency procedures.

Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
For the Cookies
- 10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
For Frosting
- 1/4 cup Caramel Sauce, cooled
- 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
Cook's Note
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugar with a wooden spoon or electric mixer until pale and fluffy; stir in egg yolk.
Step 2
In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; stir flour mixture into butter mixture until a dough forms. Drop dough by level teaspoons, 1 inch apart, onto two parchment-lined baking sheets.
Step 3
Bake until cookies are puffed and cracked, about 8 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Remove sheets from oven and tap firmly on a counter to flatten cookies. Transfer cookies to wire racks and let cool completely. (To store, keep in an airtight container, up to 3 days.)
Step 4
Make frosting: In a bowl, beat together caramel and butter with a wooden spoon until smooth; gradually beat in confectioners sugar until smooth. Spread frosting on flat sides of half the cookies and top with remaining cookies.

I agree with the other reviewers that there is an error in the recipe. It clearly needs more wet ingredients. I added an extra egg yolk and 1/4 c heavy cream and it worked. The caramel recipe is great.
honeymommy22 Nov, 2011
after following this recipe I was also surprised to see how dry and crumbly the dough was- so i added 1/4 c water and a whole egg at the end and let my mixer run for 30 seconds more. With the additional egg, they did need 4 more minutes in the oven making it a total of 12 minutes @ 375 F. They came out perfect! very successful.
HomeEcki20 Nov, 2011
Cookies were hard and dry and difficult to eat. But the frosting and sauce was exceptional. I would make this with a softer cookie recipe next time.
sarahjorgensen11 Mar, 2011
made with 2 full eggs, they turned out flat and crisp, worked well with a filling
thisissaraanne15 Dec, 2010
i added an egg and they came out PERFECT! soooo delish
hult102123 Nov, 2010
I also tried baking these cookies, and they were terrible. The filling is delicious...would definitely make that again! But, I think there must be an error with the recipe ingredients. The dough isn't doughy...there needs to be more "wet" ingredients for this to be successful. For those of you that enjoyed these cookies, did you add wet ingredients that aren't listed?
MommyCanCook13 Nov, 2010
Don't do it! These are sandy and crummy and awful. The filling
is good and the caramel, but the cookie is terrible. I'm thinking the recipe is wrong. Who ever heard of a cookie dough with just 1 egg yolk?
saradono2 Nov, 2010
These were really yummy! I had a few people complaining that they were too sweet but if you throw them in the freezer, they are like little ice cream sandwiches. Yum!
corryl27 Oct, 2010
to kininindy, does that offer stand to me too? I have heard this cookbook is fantastic. I would love to do the icing idea...but don't think I have the perfect base in my repetoire.

There are an unbelievable number of iPod docks out there. One can truly get lost in the sea of sound options currently available. Monitor Audio has created a pair of standouts, known as the i-deck line.
Two i-deck models are currently available: the i-deck 100 and i-deck 200. Priced at $499, the i-deck 100 features two 3-inch C-CAM bass drivers, two 0.75-inch C-CAM Gold metal dome tweeters, a 28/56-bit dual precision DAC, and twin 30-watt class-D amplifiers. With an MSRP of $599, the i-deck 200 has two 4-inch C-CAM bass drivers, two 1-inch C-CAM Gold metal dome tweeters, the same 28/56-bit dual precision DAC, and 50-watt amplifiers.
Both have a pivoting dock on top that promises to be compatible with almost any type of iPod. Of course, in addition to playback, that dock can also charge the unit when it's in place. Other common features between the two include the Automatic Position Correction (APC) system, DSP control, and a 3.5mm auxiliary input jack.
According to Monitor Audio, both i-deck docks are available now. Check the company's website for a list of dealers in your area.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

To the editor:
We were struck by the make-up of the front page of Oct. 17's Daily News: The top story, with a photo above the fold, is "Purr-fectly fun time – Fur Ball fundraiser to support feline rescue group." Well below the fold, its headline set in smaller type, we saw: "Homeless, hungry find local agency straining to keep up." Pictures of pretty cats are heart-warming. Pictures of the homeless, hungry would be depressing.
Reading both articles, we learn that with a budget of some $1.5 million, the Merrimack River Feline Rescue Society runs its excellent programs, including helping local residents with emergency vet bills. With a budget of only a third of the MVFRS's, Pettengill House aids over 700 local homeless people, of whom about a third are children — and in addition to the homeless, Pettengill House aids the hungry, the sick who are not homeless.
Where are our priorities? Your priorities, as the major local newspaper? Our priorities, as your readers and as citizens? The placement and presentation of the two articles sends a depressing message about what we, as a community, value and are willing to invest in.

THERE OUGHTA be a law.
Oh wait, there is a law. It says that if a person fishes on a given lake and can't keep the fish from attacking his hook, and then that same person takes a friend to the same spot on the same lake with assurances that the fish will be snapping, by official decree it is mandated that the person of the first part and the person of the second part — his friend — will catch absolutely no fish.
There is even a sub-clause which states that if two or more people clobber the fish on any given lake, that a return trip to that lake one day hence by one or more of the successful party will result in a fish-less outing.As examples of the above law and its clauses,

'Hamas would lose PA elections'
By BY BENJAMIN JOFFE-WALT / THE MEDIA LINE
02/21/2010 09:40
Survey finds Fatah to be 33 percent more popular than Hamas.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas
Photo: AP
A poll conducted earlier this week in both the West Bank and Gaza and released Thursday found that 48 percent of voters would support Fatah were presidential elections held next week, while only 11 percent would vote for Hamas. Ten percent of respondents said they would vote for other Palestinian political parties and 31 percent said they were undecided or would not vote.
The poll, based on a survey of 880 Palestinian women and men, was conducted by the Ramallah-based polling group Near East Consulting and has a margin of error of +/-3.4%.
"There is widespread support for Fatah," Dr. Jamil Rabah, director of Near East Consulting in the PA, told The Media Line. "They support the Fatah political process and don't think Hamas is on the right path politically."
The survey found 45 percent of Palestinians to have confidence in Abbas, while only 13 percent were found to have confidence in Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh. 54 percent of Palestinians were found to perceive the Fatah-led government in Ramallah as the sole legitimate Palestinian government, 19 percent see the Hamas-led government in Gaza to be the sole legitimate Palestinian government and 27 percent believe both governments are illegitimate.
In terms of overall national interest, 49 percent of Palestinians were found to prefer Fatah's approach, 12 percent expressed support for Hamas and 38 percent did not like either party's strategy or refused to answer. The support for Fatah was a few points higher in the West Bank and a few points lower in the Gaza Strip, while support for Hamas was a few points lower in the West Bank and a few points higher in the Gaza Strip.
"It doesn't surprise me that the sentiments of the people are in this direction," Abdallah Abdallah, chairman of the Palestinian Legislative Council's Political Committee, told The Media Line. "Over a year has passed since the Gaza war and still people are living in the streets. People want those responsible for this to go and I think the sentiments of the people after three or more years of this is that it's about time that those who are not capable of running the affairs of the people – go."
However, Dr. Rabah warned that Fatah's 33 percent lead over Hamas might be deceptive.
"There are two factors to keep in mind," he said. "First, from our point of view, Fatah is not as unified as Hamas. It's very pluralistic and means many things to many people."
"In addition, we found many people – some 31 percent – who said they won't vote," Dr. Rabah added. "Ideologically these people are politically closer to Fatah, but … their profiles tell us that they are closer to Hamas in terms of Islam and identity, so if the peace process is not going anywhere they will likely go for Hamas. If there is a sign of progress, those people will shift and vote for Fatah."
The Media Line news agency
The survey found that just over half (51 percent) of Palestinians believe President Abbas is working hard to fight corruption in the Palestinian Authority. However, the survey was taken between February 13-15, just as Abbas was faced with a sex scandal involving his Chief of Staff, Rafik Husseini. The Abbas aide was first accused of using his position to pressure women into sexual relationships. Those claims were followed this week with a leaked videotape allegedly showing Husseini soliciting sex from a prospective job applicant. Abbas has been forced to suspend Husseini and launch an investigation.
Dr. Nabil Kukali, director of the for Public Opinion, said that while Hamas was losing support, the Husseini episode might have decreased Fatah's popularity.
"Hamas is clearly losing their support, including in Gaza," he told The Media Line. "But to be honest, it's very difficult now to predict what would happen if elections were held, especially now after what happened to Mr Husseini."
"The majority of Palestinians are independent," Kukali said. "So before this episode, Fatah may have been more popular, but I'm sure it will affect Fatah's support and it will be a while before people forget about it. So I think the results will be different in a month."
Abdallah rejected the idea that the Husseini episode had hurt Fatah.
"As for the rumors or scandals, if there are individuals responsible for a mistake, they will be held accountable before the law," he said. "No one will be immune if an investigation proves any wrongdoing."
Suha Barghouti, a member of the Palestinian Non-Governmental Organizations' Network's steering committee, argued that the majority of Palestinian civil society was no longer allied with either of the two major Palestinian factions.
"This poll is not correct at all," she told The Media Line. "It's such a mixed picture so it's very hard to come up with an objective survey. It all depends on how you ask the questions."
"The reduction in Hamas's popularity since the last elections is the result of the division between the Palestinians, but I believe that Fatah has also lost a lot of popularity," Barghouti said. "So the majority of people in the organizations I work with now say that they are independent, will not vote for either party, or will simply not vote. I think among the people who will vote, the support for Fatah and Hamas is equal."
Barghouti took particular issue with the data on Palestinians' support for negotiations with in the poll, which found that 71 percent of Palestinians support a peace settlement with , and 49 percent support negotiation with over armed resistance as the best path towards reaching that settlement.
"The vast majority of Palestinians are not supportive of the continuation of negotiations," Barghouti said. "Not because they support armed resistance but because they are fed up and feel totally hopeless about the negotiations."
Ihab A-Ghusein, a spokesperson for the Hamas Interior Ministry, also took issue with the poll.
"These polls are not done by professionals and are all propaganda," he told The Media Line. "There were many polls issued before the elections in 2006 that claimed Fatah would win and look what happened."
"We don't fear the elections," A-Ghusein said. "All the Palestinians believe in the way of Hamas and resistance. I'm not saying that nobody supports Fatah, but it's not like people say."
"Fatah's popularity has gone down over the last 4 years," he said. "Especially because of their coordination with the Israelis, political arrests and what happened with Husseini. Every day we see something that Fatah did against the Palestinians so I know that people don't support them like they did in the past."

Reflections Bingo, named Best Bingo joint in both 2008 and 2009 by the Phoenix New Times, has drawn flocks of players for more than 20 years to compete in cash-prize games that ultimately benefit local arts and entertainment causes. A real human rather than an electronic machine calls out numbers so players don't have to translate robotic bleeps and bloops. Reflections Bingo features a different game every evening, such as the $9 special session, which features a $1,000 jackpot every night. A portion of game proceeds go toward local charities such as the Young Sounds of Arizona, Phoenix Federation of Musicians, and the Phoenix Chorale.
The Stuffington Bear Factory's staff and guests manufacture stuffed animals on-site from scratch, filling the store with plush creations and youthful joviality. Toy companions are crafted from American-made materials and well trained to accept blame for crayon drawings on the living-room wall. Kids choose from a variety of fauna—such as bears, bunnies, horses, and monkeys—from which to expand their plush menageries. Before taking their friends to their new forever homes, tykes engorge their new charges with stuffing and stock their plush pals' wardrobes with T-shirts, dresses, and even Halloween costumes.

ANDERSON — It's a far cry from the sweeping change of 2012, but there will be plenty of new faces in tow when the Indianapolis Colts arrive July 27 for their fourth straight summer of training camp at Anderson University.
The 90-man roster currently includes 36 players who were not part of last season's remarkable turnaround from 2-14 and the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft to 11-5 and an AFC wild card playoff slot.
And the coaching staff includes two new coordinators — Pep Hamilton on offense and Tom McMahon on special teams. All of which, the team says, is business as usual in professional football today.
"It's just the way it is," head coach Chuck Pagano said at the close of the Colts' three-day mini-camp two weeks ago. "There's going to be turnover. Some years you don't want to, you'd love continuity. But, like we said last year, when you do win and you have success and you put your ego aside, good things are going to happen. There's going to be enough credit to go around."
That credit helped former offensive coordinator Bruce Arians land a head coaching job with the Arizona Cardinals. As Indianapolis' interim head coach while Pagano received treatment for leukemia, Arians led the team to nine wins in 12 tries.
Hamilton, fresh off a record-setting run at Stanford where his stars included quarterback Andrew Luck and tight end Coby Fleener, is expected to bring balance to the offensive attack. His system is steeped in West Coast principles and likely will allow Luck to improve his completion percentage and cut down on his turnovers.
And while the running game — which now features two-time Super Bowl champion Ahmad Bradshaw, a free-agent addition earlier this month — is expected to be a greater part of the game plan, Hamilton promises not to stray too far away from the big-play capabilities that helped Luck set a rookie record with 4,374 passing yards last year.

Congratulations, Ohio! You are the most foul-mouthed state in the country, according to a new survey of more than 600,000 customer service phone calls analyzed by the Marchex Institute, the data and research arm of the ad firm Marchex.
Here are the five most foul-mouthed states in the country, according to the survey:
5. Illinois
4. Louisiana
3. New Jersey
2. Maryland
1. Ohio
Marchex also gathered some fun facts from the call data, such as that 66 percent of the cursing came from men.
The calls that contained the most cursing were more than 10 minutes long. So the longer someone was on the phone, the more likely that call was to devolve.
Also, calls in the morning were twice as likely to produce cursing as calls in the afternoon or evening.
The survey also looked at which states were the least likely to curse on customer service calls. Here are the five least foul-mouthed states in the country:
5. Virginia
4. Texas
3. Arizona
2. Massachusetts
1. Washington

Paul Collins, 66, admitted his wrong doing when he answered the door to home in The Ridgeway to police at seven o'clock in the morning.
Prosecutor David Chrimes told St Albans crown court that the officers asked him if he had been viewing material that he should not have been.
"The defendant accepted he had and his laptop was seized. He was arrested, interviewed and made full and frank admissions.
"He said that following the death of his mother some years previously he had viewed adult pornography and came across images of young children. He accepted he started viewing it,"said Mr Chrimes.
He said he viewed girls aged 12 to 13, but some were aged 10 to 12. One image involved a baby. To access the material on one occasion he had used the search term: "Pre teens."
The lap top was analysed and found to contain 209 images. 179 were in Category A, the least serious level, 21 were in Category B, and 9 in Category A, the most serious level.
Collins pleaded guilty to one charge of possessing indecent images of children.
Richard Storey, defending, said on the day of his arrest Collins sought help from the Lucy Faithfull Foundation and paid £800 to attend a course. He said Collins was of previous good character and had made an early guilty plea.
Following the death of his mother in 2004 he had a period of depression made worse after his partner was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Sentencing him, Judge Marie Catterson said: "Not for the first time the court has heard that the viewing of adult pornography had led to the viewing of pornography of another kind. You should not have viewed images of this kind."
She passed a 12 month Community Order with 12 months' supervision. Collins must pay £500 prosecution costs. His laptop is to be forfeited and destroyed.
Collins must also register as a sex offender for 7 years and abide by the terms of a 7 years Sexual Prevention Order which means his internet browsing history must be recorded and not deleted.

A former Oklahoma judge convicted for using a penis pump while presiding over trials has lost his appeal.
Retired Judge Donald Thompson was convicted of four counts of indecent exposure and sentenced in August 2006 to four years in prison, the Associated Press reports. Yesterday, the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals upheld the conviction, Tulsa World reports.
Thompson's lawyer, Clark Brewster, had maintained the pump should not have been repaired to make it work when it was introduced as evidence. But the court said the alteration was explained to the jury.
A hat tip to How Appealing, which posted the stories.

Canon-fans: Why have you been abandoned?
Why on earth would Paramount so disrespect you - YOU, the loyal Trek fan base! The ones who have been putting food on their table! The ones without whom Star Trek would not have become the international phenomenon it is!
I have a theory. Try to follow along.
Let's take a look at the last few "canon-respecting" Star Trek movies.
Star Trek: First Contact
$45m budget
$92,027,888 gross domestic
$146,027,888 gross worldwide
Star Trek: Insurrection
$58m budget
$70,187,658 gross domestic
$112,600,000 gross worldwide
Star Trek Nemesis
$60m budget
$43,254,409 gross domestic
$67,312,826 gross worldwide
Maybe that's why. The more money they spent trying to make you happy, the less you appreciated their effort. I suggest that you all had come to take Star Trek for granted. They kept releasing Picard movies and you eventually stopped caring. And now - NOW, something is "different", and suddenly you're all in a tizzy, and threatening to "boycott" the movie because it doesn't fit your perfect canon...well, what happened the last time they stuck to canon? Where were YOU in December '02? Fine, we know NOW that Nemesis was a horrible movie - but nobody knew that on opening day, so where was everybody? George Lucas released two epicly-crappy movies and people STILL lined up at midnight in all their robe-clad, plastic-sword-wielding geekdom when Episode III came out. Where was the representation for Star Trek? Say what you want, but the fact is, most of you were watching Lord of the Rings, or Harry-frickin-Potter. The numbers don't lie. Your threat to "boycott" simply doesn't have any teeth, because apparently you've been boycotting Trek in growing numbers for the last several years.
What have you managed to give TPTB for sticking to canon?
First Contact: $101 million.
Insurrection: $54 million.
Nemesis: $7 million.
Why has Paramount abandoned you? Exactly who has abandoned whom?
All this movie has to do is net more than $7 million dollars to prove that you purists are not the asset you all seem to think you are.
Just my two cents.
He's got a point, you know.
Personally I can tell you where I was in December of 02, at least for a few hours. In my College town theater, which by the way is for some reason an hour outside of the college town, SEEING NEMESIS...oh and did I also mention I bought the DVD of Nemesis? just to have all 10 trek movies. Yeah, I'm sure I'm not the only one. So if you ask me if I personally feel justified in my position, you sure bet I do. That 7 million had to come from somewhere, and part of it came out of my pocket. I regretted it afterwards. They should have given the director's job to Frakes, like he wanted, and stuck with the original script.
Mom, how many times do I have to tell you, Track is what athletes run on. Trek is what the Enterprise goes on.
-Free Enterprise
"Now I did a job -- and got nothin' but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character, so let me make this abundantly clear: I do the job... and then I get paid. Go run your little world."
It's true, that the $7 million had to come from "somewhere". But the point is, that "where" is one heck of a lot smaller than it was even 5 years earlier. When you talk about the "loyal fan base", you're talking about the Incredible Shrinking Woman, plain and simple. And the point still stands: those of you who choose to boycott will ultimately make zero difference whatsoever. If everybody didn't show up for the last movie, it's not going to make Paramount feel bad that you all won't show up for this one.
Another canon thread!!! Wooooo-Hooooo!! Gotta love it!
Now that I got that out of my system.....I think this thread starter has a point. We may not agree on it, but the point is still valid. I have enjoyed ALL the Trek movies. I am not a writer, I don't work in the movie industy, and I am not a real critic (although I can be critical!). I enjoyed the movies and supported them throughout all the bickering and sneering. Most of the movies that have recieved poor ratings from critics tend to do alright in the box office, then the highly acclaimed movies sometimes don't even make it to my local theater!!
I think Saint has agood point as well. Canon is MORE of an issue when you covering a "history" period in Trek. There are tons of little facts we already know about the TOS characters, so there is more to violate and ignore for this movie. Moving forward in the Trek universe is easier and few canon references are seen onscreen. Even first Contact made "canon" errors with how quickly they made it back to Earth from the Neutral zone, and they beemed out the Defiant crew through their shields!! Tons of mistakes like that have been made and they are better to be ignored.
To secure the peace is to prepare for war. -Metallica
Besides, my last point still stands: You've said yourself that it's not "just canon" but this story that you've decided is bad, that makes you dislike this movie. Well, if this "badly-written", non-canon story nets more than $7 million next summer, your excuses about bad writing will turn out to have been rather empty.
You've been "abandoned" because your loyalty, such as it is, to the brand doesn't pay. Paramount can't afford to keep feeding you for free.
I think it's easy to start going round in circles again, but we all know the box office declined significantly from FC to NEMESIS. Now there are a hundred and one different reasons (LOTR, bad script, apathy, or anything you care to mention whichever side you fall on) but it shows that a major rethink of where the franchise was going was needed.
Now we all can (and frequently do) disagree on where this new film is heading, but I don't think either side is blameless - yes, some of the material sent our way could have been better, but why did the box-office collapse so much in just two films?
Now I can understand not wanting to spend money seeing it second time round, but NEMESIS had the lowest opening weekend of the recent films, so a lot of people never really went to see it in the first place. I don't remember that far back regarding early word of mouth, but was it supposed to be that bad going in? Or did it just hold no interest for anyone? Was it simply apathy by some people?
All hail the mighty dollar!

This weekend will be one of America's most indulgent. Based on last year's estimates, we can expect to ravage 1.23 billion chicken wings that we will wash down with 325 million gallons of beer. Perhaps the most stunning projection is that Americans will eat 3.8 million pounds of popcorn.
Think about that: 3.8 million pounds of one of the lightest foods known to man.
Game day has truly become one of the country's top holidays. Masterminded by the NFL, America's most popular and shrewdest professional sports league, the big day ranks second only to Thanksgiving in food consumption — sorry, St. Nick, Christmas dinner isn't what it used to be.
Well, all this fanfare is for good reason. The NFL is red meat for the American dream. It's fast, flashy and its made-for-TV format makes the event ripe for consumption. Not just in homes across America but at the event itself. A typical host city can expect nearly half a billion dollars to flood into its local economy.
The pre-parties, game, after-parties, hotels and limos — not to mention the ocean of jet fuel it takes to get everyone there — must have a carbon footprint about the size of Rhode Island. Now, don't worry, I am not about to rain on your game day parade by complaining about this gluttonous fervor. I'll be right there with you. In my mind, it's America's cheat day, and I am not about to grudge it.
The NFL, however, seems to disagree. Not willing to concede environmental irresponsibility, this year is being touted as the greenest Super Bowl ever. The idea of an eco-friendly orgy of consumption seems a bit ironic, but if you look at the reports, the efforts being made are nothing to scoff at.
Going for the environmental touchdown
The event is being held at the league's greenest venue. The resume for MetLife Stadium includes recycled and sustainable building materials, the use of rehabilitated land, composting initiatives and an on-site solar generation system. Game day efforts also will include converting cooking oil to bio-diesel, eliminating polystyrene foam containers, and recycling and composting whenever possible.
Of course, all this is lost on the average NFL fan. I mean, it's not exactly a green demographic, right? Wrong. Using recent data from our MRI database, we've seen that some of the most eco-conscious consumers are just as big football fans as the rest of the nation. The stereotype that Americans who really care about the planet will be eating granola and doing yoga during the game is simply not accurate. Their wings may be free range and their Seahawks/Broncos stickers may be affixed to hybrids, but they will be cheering as loudly as the next guy.
So, is the NFL trying to be a good corporate citizen? Or is it, as one of America's shrewdest brands, simply trying to leverage its market and build more brand loyalty? My guess would be both. As wildly successful as the NFL is, rough road may be ahead. The bad press about how it has managed its most valuable natural resource — player bodies/brains — is mounting, and a planet-friendly initiative can help build goodwill. The NFL, a brand truly built on excess and consumption, is implementing a pretty basic principle that all successful companies are becoming aware of: Sustainability is good for business.

WESTVILLE — These recipes were provided by Susan Biggs-Warner, historic interpreter with the Vermilion County Conservation District.
Biggs-Warner will demonstrate how early settlers cooked from 1-4 p.m. today at the Pioneer Homestead at Forest Glen Preserve east of Westville.
Cream and Lemon Braised Pork Shoulder
(makes 8 servings)
One 7-pound bone-in pork shoulder or pork butt
1 head of garlic, halved crosswise
2 sprigs of sage
2 cups heavy cream
5 cups water
1 lemon
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. In an enameled cast-iron casserole, add the pork, garlic, sage, cream and water. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from the lemon in strips. Add the zest to the casserole. Halve the lemon and squeeze in the juice. Season with salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Cover the casserole and braise the pork in the oven for three hours, until the meat is very tender.
Transfer the pork to a plate and pat dry. Strain the liquid into a heatproof bowl and skim off the fat. Return the liquid to the casserole and boil until reduced to 2 cups, about 45 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, if using the more fatty pork shoulder, heat oil in a large, deep skillet. Carefully add the pork, skin side down, and cook over moderately high heat, turning until the skin is crisp, about 15 minutes; use two pairs of tongs to steady the pork. Transfer the pork to a cutting board, skin side up, and slice it ¼-inch thick. Serve with the gravy.
If using the pork butt, there is no need to sear the fat — just serve with the cream reduction.
(Recipe adapted from "Food and Wine")
Braised Fingerling Potatoes with Fennel and Thyme
(serves 4)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
¾ pounds of fingerling potatoes (7 or 8 medium), cut lengthwise into ¼-inch-thick slices
1 small bulb of fennel, trimmed and halved lengthwise into ½-inch-thick slices
1 medium sweet onion, thinly sliced
½ cup lower-salt chicken broth
3 sprigs of fresh thyme, plus 2 teaspoons of chopped fresh thyme for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat 1½ tablespoons of the oil in a 10-inch straight-sided sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and ¼ teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes begin to brown, about 7 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a plate.
Add the remaining 1½ tablespoons of oil and the fennel to the pan with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the onion to the pan and cook, stirring often, until starting to soften and lightly brown, about 2 minutes more. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Gently nestle the potatoes into the fennel-onion mixture and add the thyme sprigs. Cover the pan and braise in the oven until the potatoes and fennel are tender, about 20 minutes.
Uncover the pan and continue to braise until most of the liquid has evaporated and the vegetables are meltingly tender, another 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, discard the thyme sprigs and season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with the chopped thyme and serve.
(Recipe adapted from "Fine Cooking")
Mushrooms with Herbs and White Wine
olive oil or butter
garlic and green onions
herbs (oregano, thyme, rosemary)
chicken broth
white wine (dry)
Sauté mushrooms in oil or butter until brown. Add garlic, herbs and onions. Cook 1 or 2 minutes. Add broth and a good dash of wine and simmer to reduce. Serve with bread for dipping.
Fireplace Cranberries
Place in spider skillet the following:
1 bag of cranberries
water to cover
brown sugar or maple syrup to sweeten
Cook over coals until cranberries start to pop.
To roast chestnuts, pierce each nut just through the shell. Place nuts over fire in a metal basket, shake until they brown and pop open.
Cherry-Pecan Bread with Bourbon Caramel Sauce
(makes 8 servings)
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup golden brown sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons bourbon (preferably Wild Turkey)
2 tablespoons plus ½ cup sugar
1¼ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ pound egg bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter, melted
¾ cup whipping cream
¾ cup half and half
3 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ cup dried cherries, dried cranberries or raisins
½ cup pecan pieces, toasted
4 ounces imported white chocolate (such as Lindt) broken into ½-inch pieces
¼ cup powdered sugar
vanilla ice cream
For sauce: Bring whipping cream and sugar to a boil in a heavy medium saucepan, whisking constantly. Boil until mixture bubbles and thickens, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add butter and bring to a boil, whisking constantly. Whisk in bourbon. Cool to lukewarm. (Sauce can be prepared one day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Reheat before using.)
For pudding: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix 2 tablespoons sugar and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon in a bowl. Butter eight 2/3-cup soufflé dishes. Coat each lightly with cinnamon sugar; reserve remaining cinnamon sugar. Place bread cubes on heavy, large baking sheet. Pour melted butter over; toss bread to coat. Bake until lightly toasted, about 10 minutes. Cool bread. Maintain oven temperature.
Whisk cream, half and half, whole eggs, yolks, vanilla, ½ cup caramel sauce, ½ cup sugar and ¾ teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl to blend. Mix in cherries and pecans. Add bread; toss to coat. Let stand until bread has partially soaked up custard but is not mushy, pressing down gently on the bread, about 3 minutes. Divide bread among prepared soufflé dishes, mounding in the center. Tuck in chocolate pieces.
Place soufflé dishes on baking sheet. Pour any remaining custard over puddings. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon sugar over. Bake until brown on top and just set, about 40 minutes. Cool 10 minutes.
Mix powdered sugar and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon in a bowl. Sift powdered sugar mixture around the edge of the plates. Run a small, sharp knife around the soufflé dishes to loosen puddings. Invert each pudding onto a small plate; turn right side up and place on a prepared plate. Spoon warm sauce around the puddings. Top with ice cream.
