A bedridden Chuck Pagano had to have welled up when his young quarterback, Andrew Luck, got into the genuflect offense at the end of a tense, emotional afternoon at Lucas Oil Stadium.
He had just watched his too-young-to-know-better Colts pull off a stunner, one that was made possible by two incredible individual efforts.
If the other 43 guys on the Colts' roster were the yoke, then Andrew Luck and Reggie Wayne — two incredible talents on opposite ends of their careers — were the oxen.
Luck had calmly led the Colts down the field on a drive that started at their own 20-yard line. He made throw after pinpoint throw, perfectly weaving in the no-huddle attack along with a clock-milking clinic. Luck targeted Wayne on three of his first five throws of the drive and on three of his final five.
They knew the Packers had no answers for their connection. So they squeezed every ounce out of it. With the entire Packers secondary shadowing Wayne after an 18-yard catch put the Colts in scoring position, Luck found Donald Brown for a short gain and called his own number on a draw down to the Green Bay 4.
Then came the spine-tingling game-winner: Luck's bullet pass to Wayne, which he reached over the goal line for the touchdown that gave the Colts the lead. Although Aaron Rodgers had the last shot, driving the Packers into field-goal range, fate seemed to intervene with bad play-clock management and a wide-left field-goal attempt. The Colts hung on to 30-27 win.
The kid looked like a pro. The vet turned back the clock. The coach, honored by "ChuckStrong" shirts everywhere — even worn by classy Packers players — earned what interim coach Bruce Arians called "the greatest win I have ever been a part of." Everyone was moved by the effort.
After a slow start, Luck cranked it up mid-second quarter and kept his team in it. This is a game the Packers should have won. They held a 21-3 second-half lead before Luck and Wayne willed the Colts back.
This was not a case of strange forces or the fighting spirit of a coach having control of a game. This was the case of two terrific players eliminating distractions, harnessing their emotions and delivering two terrific performances.
Wayne made 13 catches — a few of them will make his greatest hits album — for a career-high 212 yards. Luck turned in the best numbers of his five NFL games: 31-of-55 passing for 362 yards and a pair of passing TDs, along with a score on the ground.
But beyond the numbers, they carried a team that came out of their long bye week as banged up — emotionally and physically — as any in recent memory. These are the performances that make a career.
For Wayne, it's a trip to Canton one day. He's 17th all-time in receiving yards and could finish his career, easily, in the top 10. For Luck, he'll have more yards in a game sometime soon, and he'll have a four- or five-TD game before it's all said and done. But few will be sweeter than this one for a while.
"We tried to keep it out and just play football," Arians said. "This game is emotional enough without adding more pressuring emotions, trying to do something that you're not capable of doing or more than you need to do. Just do your job. The guys did it. I think the emotion built from the crowd; that's what we need every week. Feed off the crowd, play good football, and your emotions are pretty good.
"I think everybody knows what this game meant to Reggie, and he brought his A-game. Wednesday, I challenged our five-star players and our five-star players showed up. He lead the way."
Wayne could have signed anywhere. He probably could have followed Peyton Manning to Denver. He definitely could have gone to New England, where the Patriots wanted him (and offered him more money). But he embraced a leadership role to stay in the confines of the only NFL city he has known as home.
Colts fans were thrilled then and they have to be even more ecstatic now. Landing Luck required a bit of fortune and a tough, seismic call to release Manning. But their future is cemented now, and we've been given the first concrete signs that they did the right thing.
Pagano should know upon his return — and ask anyone with the Colts: he will return — that his team is in good shape with these guys. We suspect he knew that already.
Would 49ers have been better?
A fascinating debate has to do with something Jim Harbaugh somewhat denies, everyone else believes to be true and yet many don't remember. Peyton Manning ended up in Denver, but don't forget that he was courted by Harbaugh and the Niners. As we've seen Manning continue to get better and the Niners play, at times, like the best team in football, thoughts of what might have been tickle the imagination.
After all, the 49ers' biggest weakness in the first quarter of the season had been the passing offense. But Alex Smith, following two poor games, responded with one of the more important games of his career. Quietly, the pressure around him had risen, even during the blowout win over the Jets when he played a sub-par game in spite of the score.
Smith delivered in Week Five with one of his best performances, at an even higher level than where he spent most of his breakthrough season of 2011. He hit strikes downfield, moved well in the pocket, scrambled and was confident in leading scoring drives of 79, 74, 28 (one play after a turnover), 66, 94 and 67 yards before giving way to Colin Kaepernick.
There had been some thought that Kaepernick's role could expand after his strong supporting role against the Jets, and he was effective again this week, rushing four times for 39 yards and a 16-yard TD. But Smith put the brakes on that talk for now with a strong outing.
Of course, it must keep up. Smith won't battle the Manning talk more than he will face pressure from his own performance or based on what Kaepernick might continue doing. But it will be a question worth readdressing once the playoffs are closer in sight: Would the 49ers have been significantly better with Manning under center, and not Smith?
Smith is hoping his strong play can put that talk to rest for now.
Eli's motivational touch works
When Eli Manning suggests, hints even, that a player could stand to improve his performance, it can speak volumes. So when the politically correct Manning didn't exactly sing the praises of WR Rueben Randle earlier in the week, it was taken as a slight for the rookie as he entered a big spot.
The Giants were down WRs Hakeem Nicks and Ramses Barden against the Browns, and this was Randle's chance to step up after making only one catch in the first four games for a mere four yards.
But Manning needed to get on the same page as the second-round pick before this game, so he texted Randle and invited him to a midweek film session. Needless to say, Randle accepted.
"He's the quarterback. He's the leader of the offense," Randle said after the game. "As a young receiver, you want to be on the same page as him, gain that confidence with him, and I feel like I was obligated for me to go in there."
Smart kid. Randle stepped up with six important receptions for 82 yards, keying a Giants TD drive after the Browns had built a 14-0 lead in what would become a 41-27 Giants victory. Randle also drew two pass-interference calls that netted the Giants 37 yards and also made at least two nice blocks on Ahmad Bradshaw runs. Bradshaw finished with a career-high 200 rushing yards.
Randle is the latest example of a Giant stepping up when called upon. It was Andre Brown against the Buccaneers. It was Barden and Brown against the Panthers. And Manning has been a key in keeping his team afloat and keeping his teammates accountable in his own, quiet style.
Atlanta's Matt Ryan has been the early-season MVP, but we should remember moments such as these when the award is handed out after the conclusion of the season.
Winston's tirade shows rare emotion for K.C.
There are some interesting debates raging in Kansas City these days. To fire or not to fire Romeo Crennel (and/or Scott Pioli). Whether Matt Cassel deserves to start when healthy. And now another one is starting following the comments of ORT Eric Winston.
Cassel went down with an apparent head injury in the second half of Sunday's game against the Ravens in which he was struggling mightily, committing three turnovers (and being involved in another) despite only 15 pass attempts, and he was replaced by backup Brady Quinn.
From this vantage point, watching the TV broadcast, it appeared that the Chiefs' fans, most of whom have been unhappy with Cassel's performance this season, were respectfully quiet while Cassel was down on the ground and that they offered support when he walked off the field under his own power. Now, the loud cheer for Quinn was more than just a case of the backup QB being the most popular guy on the team; it did feel like something of a sarcastic vibe as much against Cassel as it was for Quinn.
But at no point did I say to myself, "Wow, the Chiefs' fans just booed Matt Cassel getting hurt." I even wrote on Twitter that I was mildly impressed that the Chiefs fans were being as respectful as they were.
Clearly, Winston did not see it that way. Whether he was frustrated by losing and falling to 1-4, doing so on a questionable call or if he truly felt the fans were going after his QB isn't entirely clear. But listen to Winston's voice in this clip in which he's nearly shaking with anger talking about the incident, and you get the idea he was more than just a little irked with the Arrowhead fans.
Among his biggest hits of the tirade:
- "We are athletes, OK? We are athletes. We are not gladiators. This is not the Roman Coliseum."
- "But when somebody gets hurt, there are long-lasting ramifications to the game we play, long-lasting ramifications to the game we play. I've already kinda come to the understanding that I won't live as long because I play this game and that's OK, that's a choice I've made and a choice all of us have made. But when you cheer, when you cheer somebody getting knocked out, I don't care who it is, and it just so happened to be Matt Cassel — it's sickening. It's 100 percent sickening."
- "I've been in some rough times on some rough teams, I've never been more embarrassed in my life to play football than in that moment right there."
- "Hey, if he's not the best quarterback then he's not the best quarterback and that's OK. But he's a person. And he got knocked out in a game and we have 70,000 people cheering that he got knocked out?"
- "I'll sit here and I'll answer all your questions for the next 30 minutes if you want to ask them and I'll take all the responsibility I can take because I deserve it but don't blame a guy, and don't cheer for a guy who has done everything in his power to play as good as he can for the fans."
- "It's sickening. And I was embarrassed. I want every single one of you people to put this on your station and in your newspapers because I want every fan to know that."
Winston gets his wish in this space. But is he right? Did fans boo Cassel and his getting hurt? It's debatable.
What is undisputable is that Winston is one of the few Chiefs to show some real emotion in what has been an incredibly trying season, one Jamaal Charles-fueled comeback in New Orleans notwithstanding. Maybe this display of support for Cassel will rally the locker room. The schedule is not brutal, and there is a bye week coming up after the Tampa game on Sunday, which could be much-needed.
We'll see what effect, if any, Winston's fiery speech has. Remember, the Chiefs lost three straight to start last season before finishing 7-9 and almost stealing the AFC West. Despite the disappointing start, the team is only two games back of the first-place Chargers.
Bye-week blues
The Colts lost to the Jaguars at home in Week Three. The Steelers fell at Oakland later that same day.
The Lions lost to the Vikings in Week Four. The Raiders were whipped by 31, the Bucs fell at home and the Cowboys were embarrassed on Monday night, all in Week Four, too.
The Panthers and Jaguars were both tripped up at home in Week Five, the Jags by a mere 38 points.
What do these games have in common? They were all in advance of the losing teams' bye weeks. Or as Pro Football Talk's Darin Gantt said of the Panthers' weak Week Five effort, "With the bye week coming up, the Panthers picked a bad day to have a bad day."
Overall this season, teams in advance of their bye have a record of 2-8, and one of those wins was guaranteed with the Bears and Jaguars (both with byes in Week Six) facing each other Sunday. The other came when the Saints came back from a 10-point, second-half deficit on an emotional night when Drew Brees broke Johnny Unitas' consecutive-games TD record with Sean Payton in the house.
Is it fatigue? A trend with some kind of connection? After all, teams were 19-13 in the games prior to their byes last season — perhaps teams were not as rest-needy coming out of a lockout?
We'll wait to see if the bye trend keeps up this season. It's too early to make any sweeping statements about it. But it is worth noting just how many listless performances teams have had this season prior to getting a league-mandated four consecutive days off at some point during the team's bye week, which is new to this year's CBA.
It's a rule that player like but coaches hate. Do you think Jason Garrett was happy he couldn't work out his team's problems on the field after the Bears undressed them last Monday night on national TV? What about disciplinarian Mike Mularkey this week after his team's 38-point home loss to the Bears?
Keep an eye on the Falcons, Broncos, Chiefs, Dolphins, Chargers and Eagles — the Week Seven bye teams — for this coming week's games in Week Six. It wouldn't be surprising if a few of them come out flat.

Townshend man charged with hate crime assault of VPIRG canvasserJuly 17,2013By SUSAN SMALLHEER
Staff Writer
BRATTLEBORO A 62-year-old Townshend man pleaded innocent Tuesday to charges of racially-based simple assault for a July 2012 incident involving a canvasser with the Vermont Public Interest Research Group.
Herman Donna is charged with threatening an African-American man, Maroni Minter, 27, of Burlington, who was canvassing on behalf of the Montpelier-based nonprofit organization. He was not injured in the incident.
The simple assault charge, with a hate crime enhancement, could land Donna in prison for two years with a $2,000 fine.
According to the Vermont State Police, Minter believed Donna had a gun in his hands and threatened to shoot him, and called him racial epithets. Police said that while Donna did not own a gun, he admitted using a long-barreled lighter and a garden tool to threaten Minter.
Donna then got into his sport utility vehicle and chased Minter, who was traveling by bicycle. Minter told police he was carrying his VPIRG identifying information, as well as a clipboard and brochures about the groups programs. Minter told police that a woman at the home told him they were not interested, and he had turned to leave when he was yelled at by a man.
Minter stated that he turned around and observed the male reach up and grab a gun, described as a black colored pistol, from above the porch doorway, state police said.
VPIRG regularly canvasses during the summer, raising money for its programs on health, the environment and the economy, state police said.
State police investigated the July 17, 2012, incident at the time, and charges were brought a year later by the Vermont attorney generals office. Assistant Attorney General Ultan Doyle, who is handling the case, did not return a call for comment for the delay in bringing the charges.
According to a press release from the attorney generals office, Donna used several racial epithets and chased the canvasser from his property, while threatening to kill him.
Minter believed that Donna had a handgun and he told police that Donna threatened to shoot him repeatedly, and even followed him down his driveway at 216 Jay Road in an SUV. Police determined that Donna actually had a garden tool and a lighter with a tube extending from the handle.
Minter, who was on a VPIRG-issued bicycle, said he tried to get away from Donna as quickly as possible, but his bike wasnt working well, so he went to a neighbors home to ask to use the phone and to get away from Donna.
The neighbor told police Minter was shaking and appeared very afraid after the incident. Minter told police that on a scale of 1 to 10, his fear was the maximum.
Donna and his wife Deborah Donna told police their home had been broken into a few years ago, and he has now become paranoid so he locks the house and cars to keep from being burglarized again.
He said he is vigilant and watches out for his neighbors too and he was not sure what Minter was up to nor did he recognize him, the police officer wrote.
Deborah Donna said her husband did yell at Minter, but never threatened to kill him.
Herman Donna denied making any racially-based statements, the affidavit filed in court stated.
Paul Burns, executive director of the Vermont Public Interest Research Group, said last summers incident with the canvasser was an isolated incident, and he declined further comment because it was a criminal case.
He said that VPIRGs experiences going door-to-door were overwhelmingly positive. VPIRG started canvassing in Windham County again last week.
Burns, who said he was not aware that the charges had been brought, said the canvasser in question was again working for VPIRG this summer.

By RACHAEL OSBORNE
---- — CHAZY — Jane and Ralph "Pete" Hubbell started their lives together expecting to be in it for the long haul.
And on Feb. 6, the Chazy couple celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary at their beloved Sunnywood home.
"Sunnywood is the roots of this family," Jane said of the lake-view home her husband built. "We always knew this is where we wanted to end up."
Jane, 90, and Pete, 91, lived in Garden City, Long Island, and summered at Sunnywood for most of their lives, but they have been full-time residents of the North Country since 1984.
"We always said when we retired that we were going to retire here," Jane said.
The two met during dancing school at a Long Island country club.
"I enjoyed dancing with her (and) being with her," Pete said.
They differ on details as to when they officially started dating. Pete says their journey began in junior-high school; Jane insists it was in high school.
"You see, we don't always agree," Pete said, smiling. "Even after 70 years."
After graduating, they went off to college; he to Cornell, she to Smith.
"And then the war came along, and he was the first in his fraternity house to enlist," Jane said.
Pete attended cadet school in Denver while Jane continued her education.
The wedding proposal came by phone.
"He didn't go down on any bended knee," Jane laughed, adding that Pete had been talking about marriage for months.
"I think that's when she sort of said, 'If you're going to be in the States for six months, all right, we'll get married,'" Pete recalled of the fateful phone call.
"And that's the way it worked out."
A second lieutenant, Pete graduated on Jan. 1, 1943. On Feb. 6 of the same year — a cold, snowy day — they were married at the Cathedral of the Incarnation in Garden City.
"It was a beautiful day, really," Pete said.
"And that was just about the way it was," he said. "I was here for about six months, and I went over to England (for the war)."
They lived apart those first couple of years, and Pete returned from war in November 1945.
For the next 25 years, the two raised their family — three boys and two girls — while Pete worked in the industrial textile business. Jane started a nursing career at age 50, a job she stuck with until she was about 75.
Both were involved with a number of community groups through the years; Jane was president of Northern Adirondack Planned Parenthood, and Pete was on the board of United Way.
All along the way, they've traveled the world and made lots and lots of memories.
"We just always had a good time together doing things," Jane said. "That's what's kept us going and our children coming."
"I think the thing that means the most to me is the fact that my children still all love to come and see us and be with us," Pete said.
What's the nicest thing they've done for one another?
"I asked her, and she said, 'Yes," Pete said.
"I gave him five children," Jane quipped.
"Yeah," Pete replied.
"Pete was always cute," Jane said. "He didn't like buying greeting cards and things, and so he'd always make something. I was always impressed with what he would make as a card or what he would say."
The secret to a long marriage, the Hubbells say, is loyalty, love and laughter.
"I think we've played jokes on each other a lot," Jane said. "That keeps interest going. You have to keep a little bit of the unknown that's going to happen, I think, in life."
Their advice to young couples is to keep a sense a humor and be accepting.
"Be loving and forgiving," Pete said. "Because you're going to be different, but forgive the other one's differences; accept them."
When times get tough, it's important to forgive and forget, Pete said.
"You struggle through, and usually it works out," Jane added. "Just have patience, understanding. And love is the basis of it all."
Pete stressed the importance of never going to bed with a disagreement.
"Whatever it is, we always kiss each other (and) say we love each other before we go to bed. We never, ever go to bed mad at each other."
Jane agrees.
"We, you know, work it out somehow."
"Whatever comes along, we try to accept it," Pete added. "And certainly … the most wonderful thing is the love that we have for our children and they for us."
Pete hopes his legacy is happy great-grandchildren.
"And then some," he said.
Though Pete has had some health problems over the years, the couple's future looks bright.
He's been volunteering in the medical library at CVPH Medical Center weekly for more than 20 years. She cross-country skis whenever there's snow and rides her bike when the weather's nice.
"I have a goal that maybe we might reach 100," Jane said.
"That's what I'd like," Pete replied, gazing over at his bride.

"Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Days of our Lives." For over one-third of a century, those words have introduced and underscored one of daytime drama's rare mainstays. Days of our Lives, which turned 45 in November, first premiered as a half-hour drama in 1965 and expanded to an hour 10 years later. Today, it remains a consistent favorite among viewers of daytime television serials.
From demonic possessions and serial killers to genre traditions such as baby switches, amnesia and classic love triangles, Days of our Lives remains a perennial favorite among viewers of all ages. Days of our Lives is set in the fictitious Midwestern town of Salem. The core families are the Hortons and Bradys, and the multi-layered storylines involve elements of romance, adventure, mystery, comedy and drama.
Executive producer Ken Corday is following in the tradition of his parents, Betty and Ted Corday, who co-created DOOL and helmed the series for many years.
Watch full-length episodes of Days of Our Lives for 7 days after the original broadcast without log-in.
Season 5 begins with two lives hanging in the balance. But life at 15 Division must go on – the officers have sworn an oath to serve and protect, no matter the consequences.
Welcome to the night shift, where the toughest and craziest cases always seem to come through the door. Every shift is a fight between the heroic efforts of saving lives and the hard truths of running an underfunded hospital.

£200K to help Fareham shops
2:59pm Friday 10th August 2012 in Fareham
NEW cash to boost a Hampshire town will be concentrated on helping independent traders, a council boss has promised.
Fareham Borough Council has pledged £100,000 to improving the town centre – matching another £100,000 grant given by the Government.
The pledges come as a brand new £64m shopping centre prepares to open in nearby Whiteley.
But council leader Sean Woodward, pictured, says he is confident that the £200,000 can be used to boost trade in Fareham . He said: "Fareham town centre is performing well at the moment, but I'm conscious of the fact that Whiteley is opening a centre, and that's for more than Whiteley residents.
"It's going to have to seek to draw people in from outside Whiteley, so we may need to up our game."
The majority of the money is set to be spent on improving West Street, where most of the town's independent shops are situated.
Parking charges will be reviewed, there will be a new website for traders and a "destination" at the end of the street will be created to entice shoppers into the area.
Councillor Woodward added: "We have got a large covered shopping area with standard high street shops, and then we have got West Street, which is a long street with a lot of independent shops. That area isn't as popular as it might be – people tend to come and park right next to the shopping centre and never make the journey into West Street.
"We're going to set up a website where every trader will have a page free of charge. We'll also be looking at what sort of destination we can produce at the westerly end of West street, so shoppers would use those independent shops. Maybe that will be some kind of leisure or community facility that would draw people up to that end of town. I think we can make differences with this money."
The council will discuss an "action plan" for the town centre at a meeting next month.

And shouldn't we be having Rookery Lane and Whiteley Way opened up (as promised for 15 years or more!) before the new shopping centre opens??? Otherwise locals will be avoiding going there because the traffic problems will be even worse than now!

Madison High School senior wrestler Michael McComish gets ready for a much-anticipated match up at the Madison Square Garden, Friday night, but never would have thought what would eventually happen next.
"I walked over to the center, set, and the next thing I know the lights are on top of me. It's bright. I couldn't stand up, it was awkward. I fell back down and got some cuts on my knees," Michael McComish said.
Those moments are a vivid memory now for McComish with the help of a popular YouTube video gone viral.
"It was really strange. After a couple of seconds, I kind of realized that's what it was. At first, I said to myself 'what just hit me?' it was really bright. I noticed all the glass. I was like 'okay, this isn't good'," McComish said.
And it wasn't good, after nearly 80 pounds of heavy aluminum spotlights came crashing down.
"When I was under the light trying to stand up, I heard screams like girls in movies, I heard those," he said.
His injuries are minimal. All he has to show for it are a handful of stitches: a few on his forehead and a few on the back of his head.
"If I would have been standing or if the mat wouldn't have been in the right place, it would have done serious damage," McComish said.
McComish says he's always loved wrestling and, if he had to chose, he wouldn't want to get hurt any other way.
"Something I've heard from a lot of people, they say, 'in Madison Square Garden, everyone gets to wrestle under the lights', but I'm the only one who's truly gotten to wrestle under the lights."
The family does not plan to file suit against the district.
The Madison High School official released a statement saying the accident was a scary moment for everyone and the school is thankful to report the student is recovered and back at school.
On a final note, McComish lost the match that night due to 'injury default' but his opponent, showing good sportsmanship, wanted him to have the winner's medal. He gave it to Madison's head coach who then passed it along to McComish.

API Workshops in Europe
I had a great time presenting on API design and management trends at our London API Workshop a few weeks back. James Governor from RedMonk delivered an exciting talk on APIs, the need for API Management and some stark truths, like the fact that Java is still at the top of the programming pile. All of the trend talk and analysis was followed by a great real-world example when MoneySupermarket.com's Cornelius Burger described his organization's journey implementing the MoneySupermarket API with a SecureSpan API Proxy. We had excellent feedback on the event, so I know I wasn't the only one who learned a lot from our speakers.
I was particularly impressed by the range of industries and organizations that were represented in the audience. We had developers from large enterprise shops, specialized Internet-focused start-ups and even a few entrepreneurs just getting started. I think this range of interest is indicative of the value of Web APIs for all and bodes well for a continued investment in designing great APIs, rather than just chucking them out into the ether.
Next up on the tour is our Paris API Workshop taking place tomorrow (Tuesday, October 16). As always, we have a great set of speakers lined up, with Martin Duval from bluenove talking about building developer outreach programs and Benoit Herard from Orange Labs discussing their API launch. France has a great start-up culture and a reputation for enterprises like Orange driving innovation, so I'm expecting good conversation, some excellent API Management presentations and – if I'm lucky – some great wines.

Platinum record vocalist and charismatic entertainer Tony Sandler will join the Danville Symphony Orchestra on Saturday for an evening of romantic music that is reminiscent of the 1960s and '70s.
The concert "My Paris, A Tribute to Maurice Chevalier" will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the Dick Van Dyke Auditorium at Danville High School. Featured will be some of Chevalier's signature songs, including "Thank Heaven for Little Girls" and "I Remember It Well" from the 1958 film "Gigi."
Ravel's "Bolero," Chabrier's "Espania" and other French orchestral favorites will round out the symphony's performance.
DSO Maestro Jeremy Swerling said, "We try to select a nostalgia program every season, and Maurice Chevalier's memorable selections certainly fit under this category. When you add the light French favorites such as Ravel's 'Bolero,' it makes for an evening of wonderful music."
Sandler's entertainment career spans more than 50 years and has taken him to four continents to perform before millions of fans. He has recorded dozens of albums and has performed in four European films, as well as on hundreds of television shows in the United States and abroad.
Originally from Belgium, he began singing as a boy with the French Gregorian choir Let Petits Chanteurs a la Croix de Bois, which performed at the Basilica of St. Peter for Pope Pius XII. After recording his first hit ("Song of the Sea") in 1954, while serving in the Belgian Air Force, Sandler became a stage, television and film star throughout Europe before coming to the United States.
The famous Sandler and Young duo, formed with American vocalist Ralph Young, became one of the hottest acts in Las Vegas. They frequently appeared on the Johnny Carson, Ed Sullivan, Dean Martin and Merv Griffin shows.
David and Sandi Wood of Danville are sponsors of this concert, and Sandi was also chairman of the recent Cirque de la Symphonie event at the David S. Palmer Arena on April 20.
"We had a very enthusiastic crowd of more than 1,200 from the general public at the Cirque performance, as well as more than 200 gala attendees, which shows wonderful support for our symphony," she said.
"In fact, Danville is the smallest town that the Cirque has ever come to, which reaffirms our town's commitment to the performing arts."
For tickets
Ticket prices for Saturday's Danville Symphony Orchestra concert will be $30 for adults in Section A and $28 in Section B. Senior ticket prices are $28 in Section A and $26 in Section B. Student tickets are available for $15. Visa and MasterCard are accepted. To order tickets by phone, call 443-5300.

No longer just for drinking, chai tea has made a big splash in baking
No longer just for drinking, chai tea has made a big splash in baking recently; enhancing everything from healthy breakfast granola with chai spices to decadent cupcakes with rich chai butter cream frosting. These cakelettes are a sweet and simple way to enjoy the aromatic spices of your favorite chai tea You can make them in a regular cup cake pan or even into a loaf cake. We have adapted this recipe we received from King Arthur Flour which is the only flour we use in our baking.
1 1/2 cups Unbleached King Arthur All-Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup brewed Oregon Chai tea
1 cup granulated sugar
1) Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease the wells of an autumn cakelets pan, or mini muffin pan (see "tips," below left).
2) To make the cakelettes: Whisk together the flour, spices, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3) Beat together the butter and sugars until light.
4) Beat in the vanilla; then the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between each addition.
5) Add half the dry ingredients, then all of the sour cream, then the remaining dry ingredients, stirring just to combine.
6) Scoop the batter into the prepared wells until they're ¾ full — a jumbo cookie scoop works well here.
7) Bake the cakelettes for 14 to 17 minutes, until a cake tester inserted into the center of one comes out clean.
8) While the cakelettes are baking, prepare the syrup: Heat the tea and sugar in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves, stirring frequently.
9) Remove the cakelettes from the oven; cool them in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn them out onto a rack. Brush with syrup immediately.
10) Repeat with the remaining batter and syrup.

Here is what is new this week for great cooking from Home Farm Herbery.
Home Farm Herbery created their own Canadian Steak Seasoning by hand blending the following ingredients: Organic Garlic, Black Pepper, Coriander, Chili, Salt, Dill, Corn Oil and Oleoresin of Paprika to produce a peppery, salty and full flavored taste and aroma whenever you use it on steak, hamburgers, potatoes, vegetables, fish, chicken and beef. A gourmet meat eaters choice. Order now.
Corned Beef Spices are easy to use and are available from 1 oz. samplers to 50 lb. bulk. Order now.
At Home Farm Herbery we have been corning beef for years and we use our own Epicurean, Gourmet Corned Beef Spices or Seasoning as some of our customers call it.
In our Home Farm Herbery Kitchen we use it for Corned Beef, brisket, pastrami and other meat. It is easy to use. Simply add approximately 1 tablespoon for each pound of meat.
We have created a spicy, powerful taste with a combination of many flavors and the complexity of our blend makes it have a wonderful aroma. Order now.
Home Farm Herbery's New York Pizza Sauce Seasoning is hand blended from basil, marjoram, savory, ground rosemary, ground thyme, sage, oregano and parsley.
Regardless of the sauce or the crust the secret to great NY-style sauce is to achieve the perfect balance between acidity, heat, sweetness and a noticeable herbal base with a texture that's thick enough to keep your pizza from getting soggy but still thin enough to spread.
Now while many of us prefer using fresh herbs over dried herbs when possible our pizza guy prefers using dried herbs in his classic pizza sauce. Because savory herbs tend to grow in dry relatively hot climates they remain relatively stable at high temperatures as the real flavor is contained deep inside the leaf.
Some people think the key to a good pizza seasoning is cut and sifted but we know the key to the herbs used in this pizza sauce blend is that some of them are ground. This is especially critical with the ground thyme and ground rosemary as when using these in the normal dried state they tend to create more flavor explosions which makes the sauce less smooth. Order today
Our Gourmet Baby Back Rib Dry Rub is our biggest seller so order yours today for any and all outdoor and even indoor cooking.
Home Farm Herbery chemical free, organic Gourmet Baby Back Rib Dry Rub is another secret blend of herbs and spices by The Little Old Lady in The Flowered Hat. All ingredients are organically grown.

How to make your own chemical free European Beer Mustard
Why consume condiments from a grocery store that contain texturizers, stabilizers, preservatives and refined sweeteners? Why consume large amounts of high-fructose corn syrup when it is easy enough to make your own condiments?
Are we that busy or that careless about our family's health?
At Home Farm Herbery we make beer mustard that is terrific and once in a while, just for variety we substitute some left over dry white wine, when there is some, for the beer. Whenever you want to experiment you can substitute salt for fish sauce or lemon or lime juice for the vinegar and for those who want sweeter beer mustard just double or even triple the amount of honey.
Here is our recipe for Home Farm Herbery European Beer Mustard
Makes about 1 & ½ cups
¾ cup of brown mustard seed
1/3 cup beer (brown ale, porter or stout)
½ cup white wine vinegar
2 gloves garlic minced or 1 teaspoon pure garlic powder
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (make sure either one you use are pure with not additives)
In a bowl with a lid, stir all the ingredients together and set aside on your kitchen counter for a couple of days or in your refrigerator for a few days and simply forget about it for a time being.
When you are ready pour everything into a food processor and puree until smooth. You can use it immediately and any leftover will store in the refrigerator for the next several months.
We use this with Bratwurst & Sauerkraut
or we love it with healthy raw foods as a dip
How about making some as gifts?
Who can resist a cold glass of beer and homemade pretzels?
How about a good corned beef sandwich?
and last but not least Bratwurst and Sauerkraut
Happy and healthy eating begins when you just say NO to genetically altered foods.

An added bonus is this blend goes well with any other Italian cooking so buy some today and keep it handy in your pantry. We often add some into the Italian meatballs when we make them.
The exact origins of pizza are unknown and a heatedly contested issue, although the United States often gets credit for the invention of pizza, however I do not personally believe it since I do not remember pizza popping up all over the US until after the GI's returned home from WW II.

Home Farm Herbery's favorite recipes for Sweet Yellow Banana Peppers
You are getting ready to plant your garden and you are considering Sweet Yellow Banana Peppers and you look and at them and think what do I do with a bumper crop of Sweet Yellow Banana Peppers?
Here are some of Home Farm Herbery's favorite recipes.
Of course the obvious is to try canning your sweet yellow banana peppers. Here is the typical pickling recipe for banana peppers. You can always add ingredients to customize it -- some people like to add jalapeno peppers for a kick of heat; some add garlic. Be creative.
First you'll wash about three pounds of peppers, and then remove the stem ends. Slice them into rings about a quarter inch thick. In a saucepan, bring 5 cups cider vinegar, 1 1/4 cups water, 5 tsps. canning salt, 2 tbsps. celery seed , and 4 tbsps mustard seed to a boil. Put some dry celery and mustard seed
into the jars. Then fill up the jars with your peppers and cover with the boiling liquid. Can according to instructions. We use them in salads, on burgers, sandwiches and more.
Since Banana peppers are tangy and sweet, so their flavor mixes well with cheese and other toppings; think cured meat or a green leafy vegetable, like spinach or arugula. Here's a quick recipe: Make your own pizza dough and sauce (or buy some at the grocery store). Roll out your dough, leaving a border around the edge for your crust. Ladle on a thin layer of sauce, spreading it around with the back of the ladle. Sprinkle on grated mozzarella cheese. Next, place a layer of torn arugula leaves on the pie. Top with small sliced pieces of cured Italian salami or pepperoni. Top the whole thing off with sliced rings of banana peppers. Bake on a baking sheet for 20 to 25 minutes at 450 degrees. I bake on a stone so I only bake for 10-12 minutes. Top with grated parmesan cheese. Delicious!
Because Banana peppers have a much milder taste than bell peppers, and bring a different flavor to the traditional dish of stuffed peppers. You can make stuffed peppers meaty or meatless, depending on your preference. If you don't eat meat, think about using rice, quinoa or some other meat alternative. Use about a pound of meat for every four good-sized banana peppers. Use mild or spicy, whatever your preference. Slice the top of the pepper, making it into a sort of flip-top. Brown sausage or ground beef in a skillet and set aside. In a large bowl, mix bread crumbs, Romano cheese, an egg, and some salt and pepper together. Stir in the meat and add more bread crumbs/cheese or another egg, depending on how moist or dry you want the stuffing. Gently fill the peppers with the stuffing and close the tops of the peppers. Fry the peppers in olive oil until each side is browned. Serve with a bit of marinara sauce and some grated cheese on top, if desired.
Fried banana peppers are a Southern favorite, served as an appetizer or as a side dish next to roasted ham or fried chicken. You can fry fresh banana peppers, pickled banana peppers, mild peppers or spicy peppers -- whatever you like best. The recipe is super simple and everyone loves them. Here's how to make deep fried banana peppers:
The secret to the Southern recipe is saltine crackers. Wash the banana peppers and slice lengthwise. Remove seeds and pat dry with a paper towel. Soak the peppers in milk, then dip in a mixture of flour and crushed saltine crackers. Fry in hot vegetable oil until golden brown. Remove with tongs, drain on paper towels, and serve while still warm.
Fried banana peppers taste great on their own, with cocktail sauce or even with ranch dressing for dipping. Give your family a variety of dips to choose from!
A very popular appetizer, poppers are peppers split open, filled with cream cheese and deep fried. If you like poppers but don't like the spiciness of jalapenos, why not try some banana pepper poppers? You can get the yummy taste without the heat, and you can make them at home.
Wash the banana peppers and pat dry. Cut in half lengthwise and remove seeds. Fill each half with cream cheese. Here comes the good part. Wrap a small (about a third of a slice) piece of bacon around each pepper and stick a toothpick through to hold. Place them on a baking sheet and bake at 375 degrees until the bacon is crispy. Warning: These are addictive!
For variations on the theme, mix in shredded cheeses like parmesan,

Two More Good Reasons to Grow Haricot Vert Beans, try these recipes today
Two More Good Reasons to Grow Haricot Vert Beans
Haricot Vert with Shallots
1/2 pound of haricot vert, trimmed hopefully that you grew yourself.
2 teaspoon butter (Please not margarine)
1 Tbsp Dried Shallots,
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons diced tomato
Wedge of lemon
Bring a pot of well-salted water to boil. Boil haricot vert for 3.5 minutes (yes, I honestly believe that this level of timed precision will be rewarded). Plunge them into an ice bath and drain the beans.
In your empty pot (because we're always looking to save dish-washing time in the smitten kitchen) melt two teaspoons of butter over medium heat. Add the shallot and sauté them until they're just translucent, not browned–about one to two minutes. Add the drained and cooled haricot vert back into the pot and reheat them in the butter and shallots. Season with salt and pepper. Spread haricot vert and shallot onto a plate, throw the diced tomato over them and squeeze a few drops of lemon juice* over the dish. Serve immediately.
Haricot Vert Beans with Butter and Herbs
1 pound thin green beans (haricot vert), trimmed
1/4 cup red onion, chopped fine
3 Tbsp butter
2 Tsp dried parsley
3 Tsp dried thyme leaves
3 Tsp dried tarragon
3 Tsp dried chives
Salt and pepper to taste
Lemon wedges
1 Bring a large pot of salty water to a boil. Prepare a large bowl of ice water. Boil the beans for 2 minutes. Plunge them into the ice water to stop the cooking and set the color. Drain the beans and pat dry on a cloth or paper towel.
2 Heat the butter over medium-high heat in a large sauté pan. Cook the onions until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
3 Add the green beans and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring often.
4 Add all the herbs and some salt and pepper and toss to combine. Cook for 1 minute more.
Serve hot or at room temperature, with lemon wedges.

How to make Mullein Leaf Tea
Dried mullein leaves, flowers and roots can all be used to heal these lung abating conditions. A mullein tea is the most common method of preparing the herb and the recipe below makes one cup of tea, which can be consumed up to 3 times a day. Using the tea as a gargle once it has cooled down is very effective for coughing and soreness in the throat.
Mullein Leaf Tea
1 ½ cups boiling water
1-2 teaspoons dried mullein leaves and/or flowers (flowers make a sweeter tea)
1 teaspoon dried spearmint (optional for flavor)
1-2 teaspoons honey (optional)
Steep the mullein leaves in hot water inside a tea ball or strainer for 15 minutes. Add honey if you like a sweeter tea.
If the flavor of mullein doesn't agree with you, another great way to reap its benefits is by preparing an inhalant. To do this, boil the leaves in water for 5 minutes and inhale the steam to relieve coughs, congestion and asthma. Mullein can fight asthma and keep away colds because it actually prevents infections from settling into the delicate respiratory tissue by curing dryness and constriction.
Rather ironically, mullein can also be smoked, thus rendering itself the only type of cigarette that could be considered beneficial in treating lung conditions.
Mullein is primarily a respiratory herb, although its benefits reach much further than our lungs. The herb is a diuretic and thus can relieve urinary tract inflammation when taken through a tea. It can also be used to decrease inflammation in the bowels, helping to reduce colitis and other issues. Mullein extract infused with olive oil has been used to reduce the inflammation of earaches, sore joints, insect bites and hemorrhoids because of its soothing properties. Simple poultices made out of fresh, mashed mullein leaves and flowers mixed with water can also be used to relieve, burns, boils and sores.

It is really easy to make Home Farm Herbery Gourmet Linguica Sausage
It is really easy to make Home Farm Herbery Gourmet Linguica Sausage Seasoning and this recipe makes great Linguica Sausage.
You do not need a lot of equipment. An old meat grinder will do or get your meat ground at the meat department. You simply make patties and/or scramble sausage instead of links.
To Make Home Farm Herbery Linguica Sausages you will need the following ingredients:
The contents of Home Farm Herbery Linguica Sausage Seasoning, 5-lbs pork butt, coarsely ground, 2-tbsp liquid smoke, 2-tbsp minced garlic & 1/2-cup red wine.
Hand-trim fat from the outside of meat to your desired fat preference. Grind the meat with a course grinding plate. After grinding, add the Linguica sausage seasonings to the meat and blend by hand or use a meat mixer.
Be sure to mix thoroughly to ensure the ingredients are spread evenly throughout the meat. Stuff by hand or by using a sausage stuffer or sausage stuffing attachment for an electric meat-grinder.
(Note: do NOT use the blade in meat-grinder when stuffing and it is best to use a stuffing (bean) plate). If you wish, You can also form patties without casings.
Happy Sausage Making.

Rowling and actress Emma Watson discussing the character of Hermione coming from book to the screen. In one moment, Miss Watson recalls a letter Ms. Rowling once wrote to her in which the author refereed to Miss Watson as "my perfect Hermione."

Google engineers have volunteered the company's VP8 video codec for an emerging standards project, called WebRTC, that could provide a real time communications protocol for the Web.
"We believe that the WebRTC effort represents an unprecedented opportunity to establish a new real-time communications platform," wrote Justin Uberti, Google's tech lead for WebRTC, on the WebRTC development email list. "Therefore, we believe the sole mandatory-to-implement video codec in WebRTC should be VP8, the only viable royalty-free option."
[ Learn how to work smarter, not harder with InfoWorld's roundup of all the tips and trends programmers need to know in the Developers' Survival Guide. Download the PDF today! | Keep up with the latest developer news with InfoWorld's Developer World newsletter. ]
Google acquired and open sourced the VP8 codec, which is used to compress and decompress video streams, when it purchased On2 in 2010.
Started in 2011, WebRTC Working Group (Web Real-Time Communication) started authoring a pending HTML5 standard, as well as an accompanying open source framework, for running real-time communications across the Internet, such as telephone calls, video share and peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing. Today, such services require the provider to create the capability from scratch, or borrow from commercial solutions.
The W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) and the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) are collaborating on the effort.
For Google, the need to use open technologies was paramount in this effort, because it would allow anyone to use the technology without prior approval. "This approach has worked wonders for the [W]eb, and we hope for the same result with WebRTC," Uberti wrote. "Given the ability to deliver a royalty-free platform with no compromises on quality, we see no reason to include mandatory royalty-bearing codecs."
Other participants have their doubts though. A representative from mobile equipment provider Ericsson voted for the more widely used H.264 codec as the mandatory codec, or at least include H.264 as one of mandatory codecs.
H.264, often packaged in the MPEG-4 container, is used by Apple, Microsoft, Adobe Flash, and others. Chip manufacturers such as Intel and Texas Instruments offer processors or add-on chips to speed H.264 decoding, thereby making the format appealing to power-sensitive mobile device manufacturers.
Use of H.264, however, requires developers to license the technology, which Google, Mozilla, and others have railed against. "Non-free MTI codecs would be a massive problem for Linux/BSD [distributions] and other open source projects, as well as Mozilla," noted Mozilla WebRTC tech lead Randell Jesup.
In a sense, Google's stance is part of a larger split in the Web community over which video codecs should be included as part of the official HTML5 standard. Here, Google has offered VP8, and has gotten support from Mozilla and Opera, while Microsoft, Apple, and others have put their weight behind H.264.

Rush hour gridlock after A420 accident and traffic lights failure
10:30am Tuesday 4th December 2012 in News
OXFORD drivers faced rush-hour misery yesterday when temporary traffic lights and an accident on the A420 conspired to cause miles of queues and hours of delays.
To add to the problems on Oxford's Botley Road, temporary traffic lights at the Ferry Hinksey junction malfunctioned.
A collision on the A420 at 7.30am near the Bampton turn resulted in an hour-long road closure, while heavy rain forced the closure of three roads on the outskirts of the city.
The diverted traffic clogged the main road into the city in both directions, with cars at a standstill near Cumnor Hill, and crawling between the Botley Interchange and the Hythe Bridge Street junction.
There were also reports of long traffic delays in St Giles.
Many irate drivers took to Twitter to unleash their anger at being stuck.
Oxford resident Gareth Ellis said: "@oxfordshirecc please do something about the temp lights on Botley/Ferry Hinksey Road – causing worse gridlock than the floods."
The issues also affected commuters as Oxford Bus Company said its services suffered due to the gridlock.
Queues built up at 7.30am but the volume of traffic had not subsided by 3pm when power to the Ferry Hinksey traffic lights was eventually restored. The lights were knocked out amid last week's heavy flooding and took four days to repair.
However, yesterday the temporary lights set up there also failed as traffic was beginning to build.
Southern Electric said it would investigate. A power feed to the main lights was inaccessible on Friday, according to the energy company, as it was locked inside a council-owned box.
