The plays are the thing!
The upcoming 2012 season, the 30th for the Thousand Islands Playhouse in scenic Gananoque, Ontario, will be the last act for theatre founders Greg Wanless and Kathryn McKay. This husband-and-wife theatrical team will exit the stage with mixed emotions after what has been a remarkably successful run.
When the lights dim on the evening of May 11 at the Thousand Islands Playhouse in Gananoque, Ontario, it will mark the start of the swansong season for Artistic Director Greg Wanless, Arts'68, Artsci'82.
Wanless, now a long-time Queen's Drama professor, founded the theatre company in 1982, and has spent the past three decades along with his wife who is the Associate Artistic Director, Kathryn MacKay, Artsci'82, building a company that has grown exponentially in both attendance and artistic reputation. The once smalltown summer theatre company that produced three plays for a total audience of fewer than 6,000 over 10 weeks in its first season, has grown to become an impressive and internationally known company.
The Playhouse now stages eight productions a year on its two stages, and its 26-week season attracts an audience of in excess of 50,000, a dramatic accomplishment by any standard.
The road to this success had more plot twists and turns than a Neil Simon comedy. After leaving Queen's in 1968 without his degree, Wanless – a Brockville, Ontario, native, who started as a physics major – took to the stage as an itinerant actor before signing onto a five-year stint with the Stratford Festival. In 1981, he'd finished his run at Stratford and decided to see the world. He made it just 375 kilometres down the road, as far east as Kingston.
Back in the town where he spent his student days, he enrolled in an English course with Prof. Grant Sampson. "I spent a wonderful summer getting into literature," says Wanless, "And I also met Kathryn [MacKay] the next fall in Drama210 – Theatre History." The result truly became theatre history.
MacKay's class had staged a play, and at the closing night party in early 1982, one of her classmates Jill Thomson, Artsci'82, approached Wanless. "What are you going to do next?" she challenged him.
"Open a theatre," he replied.
"Gananoque," he answered. He had acted for several summers in Gananoque tent theatre and knew the town well.
"As soon as I raise some money," he replied, though he had no real plan in place.
"Well, I've got some money" Thomson replied. And that was the kick-start that set everything in motion.
Shortly after that, one very cold morning in February 1982, Wanless, who was an impoverished student and living in his housecoat to stay warm in a small, drafty apartment on Bagot Street, picked up the phone and began making calls in hopes of hustling up some support for his playhouse. First he called Gerry Tinlin, a friend, summer theatre buff, and local broadcaster, who would soon become a principal backer and a Playhouse booster. Then Wanless called Hal "Moose" McCarney, BA'52, a member of Queen's Football Hall of Fame and a prominent Gananoque businessman to ask if he might be willing to help find some support for a new summer theatre in the town.
Wanless didn't know it at the time, but he couldn't have chosen a better potential patron than McCarney.It was noon when Wanless got off the phone after a long conversation with him, and a blizzard was raging outside, but Moose told Wanless to meet him in Gananoque at 1 pm. Shedding his housecoat, he hopped into his car and raced the 25 km east to Gananoque, where he discovered that McCarney had summoned members of the town's Chamber of Commerce as well as other prominent residents to meet him. By the time their session together ended, Wanless had an additional $15,000 in pledges on the table. Within a week that amount had grown to $50,000, enough money for Wanless to start making some serious plans.
He needed a venue and the Gananoque Canoe Club seemed to be the perfect site, although the 1909 building and its broad verandas and docks were in serious disrepair. McCarney came to the rescue again, arranging for the Rotary Club to sell the building to the newly formed Thousand Islands Playhouse company for a dollar. There was just one catch: the Rotary Club had a buyback clause in the sales agreement, if the theatre didn't make a go of it. Wanless thinks the expectation was that he would renovate the building and if the theatre failed, the Rotary Club could buy back a fully renovated building for the same dollar it had sold the building for. Despite the odds, that never happened "Greg is an anomaly," says Kathryn MacKay. "He's an artist, but he's also a practical, resourceful, visionary businessman."
Wanless now had an antiquated building, but he needed contractors and actors. By the end of April, he and MacKay, who by now were a couple, had pulled together a troupe of fellow Queen's people and several faculty members who were willing to help them get started on stage and off. The students moved en masse into a run-down, barely habitable old building in Gananoque that they dubbed "The Swamp." When they weren't renovating the Canoe Club, they were fixing up the Swamp, shopping, and cooking, and somehow rehearsing for their first play – Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors – which opened on June 25, 1982.
MacKay remembers those early years together. "We had a rocky relationship at first, falling in and out of love, but we were having a wonderful time creating a theatre," she says. They finally married in 1986, and subsequently had two sons, Jeremy and Marcus. "In those days we ran the theatre during the winter from our home, while Greg was teaching drama at Queen's," MacKay recalls.
Wanless and MacKay took turns directing, stage-managing, acting, running the house, managing operations – box office, sponsorships and patrons, writing ads, and handling contracts for the professional actors who soon were attracted to the Playhouse – and raising their sons.
Wanless and MacKay have decided that this summer, the Thousand Islands Playhouse's 31st season, is the right time to step down. "Our challenges are no longer artistic ones," says Wanless. "We now spend more and more of our days raising funds. It's time to let someone else have a turn."
Wanless and MacKay have ambitious plans, with time for travel and involvement with other theatres. Wanless will also continue teaching at Queen's. "My teaching philosophy is to never say no to them. I don't want to tell students they can't do something or tell them that they're wrong," he says. "I didn't like that kind of teaching when I was a student. I want each student to think for himself or herself, to learn, and to try."
Greg Wanless is one of those rare individuals who practises what he preaches, and his "never say no" philosophy has resulted in an enduring legacy to Canadian theatre and to the town of Gananoque.

The job fair will run both days from 9 a.m. until 8 p.m. at the Ramada Toledo Hotel and Conference Center located at 3536 Secor Road in west Toledo.
One applicant says the excitement of a new store brought her to the interview. She walked out with a new job and has advice for anyone interested in applying.
"You don't know what they're looking for. You might think that you don't have anything to offer, but you don't know what they're looking for, you know? You don't know what they need. So, certainly, just come down, you know? What do you got to lose?" said Gail White.
Expected to open Nov. 14 at 5223 Monroe Street next to Target, this store will be the 15th Gabriel Brothers store in Ohio.

Overcast skies may be bad for landscape photography, but they are great for shooting portraits. When shooting under cloudy skies you've got a giant overhead softbox to work with. This creates soft light that wraps around your subject and makes it easy to capture a proper exposure without blown highlights or harsh shadows. This soft light is also a great base for adding off-camera flash.
A few tips for success on an overcast day:
•Set your white balance to 'Cloudy' to add a little warmth to your colors
•Don't include the sky in your photos. Unless the clouds are very dramatic, an overcast sky doesn't make a good background.
•Use off-camera flash (speedlights or strobes) to create more interesting or dramatic lighting. Use the ambient light as your fill and build the main light with your off-camera flash.
•You may need to bump up the contrast (I like to use a curves adjustment) in Lightroom or Photoshop.

Yesterday we told you about UFC women's bantamweight Ronda Rousey tweeting an "interesting" video claiming the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre was a government conspiracy. Rousey has since deleted the original tweet where she includes the link. Today her manager Darin Harvey did some damage control on the situation. Via MMA Junkie:
"Ronda's the kind of person that doesn't take everything at face value, and doesn't have 100 percent faith in all the news that's put out there by the mainstream press,"
After Rousey posted the video link, she also tweeted I just figure asking questions and doing research is more patriotic than blindly accepting what you're told. That "research" quip seems timely given the Manti Te'o story.
Rousey herself stated on Twitter that she didn't intend to insult or hurt anyone:
I never meant to insult or hurt anyone, sorry if anyone was offended. It was not my intention in the least. mmajunkie.com/news/2013/01/m…— Ronda Rousey (@RondaRousey) January 16, 2013
Harvey, who was obviously performing damage control for Rousey, added his own thoughts about the video:
"I don't know if it's the truth or not. I'm not an investigator, but it seemed to me that if that Bushmaster (rifle) really was sitting in the trunk of a car, and the guy killed himself inside the school, how would the gun end up in the trunk of a car? Maybe it's just bulls--- facts. I didn't investigate it. I think Ronda thought it was interesting and retweeted it, and that was the extent of it. I don't think she was saying the mainstream press was wrong. It was just a different perspective."
I'm not a PR expert, but by not dismissing the video and separating him and Rousey from the "truthers", he didn't exactly improve the situation by giving an "I don't know" answer as far as the validity of the conspiracy presented in the video. Actually, he probably made things worse and now puts both of them in a negative light.
The article also notes that the UFC declined to comment on the story.

Baseball's rally falls short at Lipscomb, 7-6
Related Links
Lipscomb scored four runs in the ninth inning to outlast the JU baseball team, 7-6, in A-Sun action Friday night at Ken Dugan Field.
The Dolphins (17-34, 6-16 A-Sun) erased a 3-0 deficit with a four-run eighth inning, capped on a three-run homer by junior Adam Brett Walker II. JU added two insurance runs in the ninth inning, but the Bisons (23-26, 12-10) rallied in the bottom of the frame to steal the win.
"That loss hurt," JU head coach Terry Alexander said. "We did a great job of battling back to take the lead. We were not sharp in the ninth and it was our downfall. We will look to even the series tomorrow."
Lipscomb reliever Gil Rehwinkel (6-2) pitched 1.2 innings to get the win, while Connor Sinclair allowed four runs on eight hits and six strikeouts in 7.1 innings for the no-decision.
Senior Sean Green (0-4) took the loss after allowing four runs, three earned, on four hits in 0.2 innings. Sophomore Chris Anderson got the no-decision after surrendering three runs on eight hits and four strikeouts in seven innings. Sophomore Adam Maxon had a scoreless eighth inning for JU.
In the JU eighth inning, sophomore Zachary Houck and junior Ethan Loosen recorded consecutive singles to center field off of Sinclair.
After a mound visit, senior Jonathan Murphy advanced Houck to third with a deep fly ball to right field. Freshman Alex McRae legged out an infield single, scoring Houck on the play to make it a 3-1 deficit. Walker II cleared the bases in the next-bat with a three-run homer to left for the 4-3 JU lead.
Murphy gave the Dolphins some insurance in the ninth inning with a two-out, two-run double for a 6-3 advantage.
Green got the first out of the ninth inning, but Lipscomb drew a walk and recorded two singles to load the bases. The Bisons scored a run on a ground out, while ML Williams followed with an infield single to score another run to cut the deficit to 6-5. Zach Messer scored the tying run with a hit to right field, while Williams advanced to third. The Dolphins committed an error in the next at-bat which scored Williams for the game-winning run.
JU junior right-handed pitcher Drew Woods (0-3, 4.66 ERA) is slated to face Lipscomb lefty Chris Nunn (0-2, 4.59 ERA) Saturday at 2 p.m. in Ken Dugan Field.

Ban on sale to other States, release from cold storage cited as reasons
After ruling firm for almost five months starting February this year, potato prices in West Bengal is on a declining trend.
The State Government's restriction on sale of potatoes to other States effective August 1, coupled with a pick up in the release of the tuber from cold storages across the State has helped bring down prices.
The recent ban on the launch of new Tarakeshwar potato contracts by the Forward Markets Commission (FMC) also helped in the easing of prices in the spot market, said Patit Paban De, member, West Bengal Cold Storage Association.
Wholesale prices of potato (Jyoti variety), which was ruling around Rs 1,250-1300 a quintal in end June and early July, has now softened to Rs 1,040-1,100 a quintal, De said.
Low Production
The rise in prices of the tuber during the first few months of this year was primarily on account of lower production. Potato production dropped to about 85 lakh tonne in 2011-12, against 95 lakh tonne last year.
"Farmers were also holding their stock in anticipation of further rise in prices. This led to 3-4 per cent lower release from cold storage as on end June," De said.
However, now with the release of potatoes picking up, prices have started inching down, he added.
"Cold storages have released close to 47-48 per cent of total potatoes stored as on August 31, against about 46 per cent during an average year. This has helped bring down prices," he said. The 403-odd cold storages in the State can hold about 58 lakh tonne of potatoes.
Futures market
Apart from banning the launch of new Tarkeshwar potato contracts, the FMC also ordered that effective August 1, no fresh positions would be allowed during the staggered delivery period in all running contracts of potato on MCX and NCDEX exchanges.
This brought down prices in the futures market thereby also softening spot prices.
Prices are likely to remain stable at these levels. "The potatoes produced in South India will come into the market by September and this will help keep prices stable around current levels," De said.

(DA -- From the FanPosts)
Sure, it's early, but we've finally gotten a decent look at this team we were speculating so much about all summer. So, who has surprised you by playing above your expectations and who would you have no problem simply cutting loose if there were no guaranteed contracts? I'll offer two of each.
Gerald Henderson- As far as young guys go, I could easily put D.J. here, but honestly Hendo has surprised me more. He looks confident and assertive on the offensive end, and is providing a great burst of energy off the bench that compliments Brown and Tyrus really well (see: the final minute against San Antonio). He's improving with each game and I'm genuinely excited to see what he looks like in March.
DeSagana Diop- He's suddenly looking more like the defensive monster that somehow earned a big contract in Dallas. A scorer he will never be (I nearly fell out of my chair when he sunk that pretty fadeaway jumper against the Spurs), but he's been a real presence inside and I actually enjoy seeing him on the court more than Nazr. Still excited to see if Kwame can be the best of both poor-man worlds as far as our centers go, but for right now I'm pretty pleased with Diopkembe.
Matt Carroll- He made it in the game last night - and stood in the corner for two minutes. I was hoping he could provide some shooting off the bench, stretching the D for our slashers to find their way to the rim, but it seems his skill set simply doesn't mesh with LB's style of ball. I like the guy, and hope we ship him somewhere like Toronto where he'll be able to put his perimeter game to use.
Stephen Jackson- Obviously, 'drop' is too strong a word, and Najera would have been an easy choice here, but I wanted to highlight a rotation player who I've been disappointed with, and right now that's gotta be Jack. He's provided bursts of scoring, but overall he's looked slow and sloppy, with too many bad turnovers. The T's have gotta stop - heck, I'll settle for slow. Bonnell pointed out today that he's on pace for 30 this year. If the Bobcats are going to find that crispness and cohesion that has eluded them so far, it's gotta start with the Cap'n.
So...what say you?

The Preserve consists of coastal sage scrub and mixed chaparral habitats. A variety of wildlife makes their home in the Preserve. These rugged habitats provide mammals and reptiles a place to stealthy forage and make their homes. Raptors are a common site over head or perched in trees. Now preserved in perpetuity, these hill tops are preserved as monuments to the natural beauty of San Diego County.
The Del Dios Highlands Trail straddles the San Dieguito and Escondido Creek Watersheds and provides a passive trail connection joining the communities of Del Dios and Elfin Forest. The trail is open for hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian use. Half way up the trail from the Del Dios Highway staging area visitors can enjoy an inspiring view of Lake Hodges to the southeast. Further up the trail the Pacific Ocean can be seen on a clear day. The trail connects with the Elfin Forest Recreational Reserve trail system managed by the Olivenhain Municipal Water District.
The Preserve is open seven days a week from 8:00 am to half an hour before sunset. In the event of heavy rain the preserve will not open for public safety and protection of the resources.

As the NCAA's Cam Newton investigation lurches onward silently in some alternate dimension, HBO Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel is set to drop a one-hour special on pay-for-play in college football that features four ex-Auburn Tigers players. Sports By Brooks claims to have a transcript of the program, in which Chaz Ramsey, Troy Reddick, Stanley McClover, and Raven Gray accuse Auburn and other schools including Ohio State, LSU, and Michigan State of handing out money (and sex) left and right.
The program is scheduled to air on March 30 at 10 pm ET. A few choice cuts:
McClover says there were money handshakes from boosters at other football camps too. At Auburn for a couple hundred dollars and at Michigan State. All the schools denied any wrongdoing. And things really started heating up a few months later when he went to Ohio State for an official visit where schools get a chance for one weekend to host prospective athletes.
McClover: "They send girls my way. I partied. When I got there I met up with a couple guys from the team. We went to a party and they asked me to pick any girl I wanted."
Kremer to McClover: "I think in one game you had four sacks, what did you earn in that game?"
McClover: "Four thousand. Against Alabama."
It goes on and on, and you really should read SbB's transcript and be sure to clear your Wednesday night schedule. Will anything come of this? College football fans know this stuff happens everywhere, but something this big could be the kind of thing that actually gets the casual public involved enough to cause some government body to lumber to life and attempt to "fix the system," whatever that means.
It's already been a busy offseason for Auburn. While celebrating their 2011 national title, they've also had to deal with a four-man robbery and a recruiting investigation distinct from the Newton case.

Can BP handle more than one profile type? Jobseekers and employees? Anyone else need this?
Hi guys,
I run a growing BP site and would like to introduce more than one type of profile for users.
Users would select whether they want to register as a job seeker or an employer for example.
This would lead to different profile fields on the registration page as well as a different profile page.
I really want to get this built and have a BP developer on standby, but I was wondering if anyone has already had experience with this and wondered if it would be something that people would be interested in introducing to BP core?
Is it on the roadmap at all, or would the team be interested in it being so?
Let me know.

Springfield, Mass. – October 27, 2012 - The Springfield College women's volleyball team secured the second seed in the upcoming New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Championship on Saturday after dispatching the Coast Guard Academy in three sets. Springfield won by the scores of 25-18, 25-11, 25-17.
Springfield improves to 26-6, 7-2 in league play, while the Bears dropped to 17-13, 6-3. The Pride will begin its title defense this upcoming week when it competes in the NEWMAC Championship, which will be hosted at top-seeded Wellesley College.
Tessa Smolinski led Springfield with 13 kills and eight digs, while fellow outside Daniella Crismani recorded 10 kills at a .421 clip to go along with 13 digs. Mary Consol, Elise Brogan, and Kelsey McGayhey all had six kills apiece, and Amy Entel recorded a match-high 14 digs. Clare Henry had a solid match on defense with 13 digs, and Whitney Miller ran Springfield's offense with 38 assists.
The Bears were limited to a .060 hitting percentage for the match and struggled to find its offensive rhythm throughout. Keriann Mason produced a team-best 11 kills and added 11 digs, while Kelsey DePorto notched nine kills and three blocks. Samantha Marmolejo led the team with 13 digs, and Karen Matic totaled 18 assists in the loss.
In the opening set, Springfield used a 8-1 run to break a 3-3 tie, and gain an 11-4 cushion after Crismani's third kill in the early going. Coast Guard battled back to get within 19-15 using a double block from Matic and DePorto. However, Springfield responded with the sets next three points to regain control, and Smolinski put the lid on the 25-18 first set win with a big swing off the Coast Guard block. Crismani had a great start to the match, producing six kills in the opening set.
After surrendering the first point of the second set, Springfield rattled off the next eight to own an 8-1 lead and force the visitors into a timeout. The Pride didn't let up as it steamrolled through the second set, hitting .325 compared to Coast Guard's -.049. Henry was especially strong in the set, collecting 10 digs of her 13 digs for the hosts.
The third set was the closest from the one set as it featured eight ties and six lead changes. With the score even at nine, a double block from McGayhey and Brogan kickstarted a 7-2 burst that put Springfield in command, 17-11. The hosts extended its lead to as much as nine before Smolinski put the match away with her 13th kill. Mason led the way for Coast Guard in the set with six kills, with Smolinski countered with five and McGayhey chipped in four.

Class C hoops final has a new look
PLATTSBURGH — The Section VII Class C girls' basketball championship will have a bit of a different flavor this season.
AuSable Valley (17-2), which has been a powerhouse in Champlain Valley Athletic Conference's Division II, moves from Class B into Class C this year to compete for the championship.
Joining the Patriots in the title game is a Northern Adirondack team that before this year hadn't won a game since the 2007 season.
The two teams will tipoff at 5:45 p.m. today at the Plattsburgh State Field House.
"My hope for this year was to win a few games," Bobcats coach Jessica Barnhart said. "I definitely didn't expect to win in the semis and have a chance to play in the finals (at the start of the year)."
One person who was expecting big things from the Northern Adirondack program this season was Patriots coach Roger Long.
"They definitely have come a long way," Long said. "They have learned to win this year, and their kids are playing well and hard together.
"Some of their kids played AAU this summer, and my feeling going in was that Jess was going to do a good job and it was only a matter of them learning to win. They played us extremely well this season. I thought they'd be at least a .500 team, and they haven't surprised me — I knew they had the capabilities."
AuSable Valley has come away with a pair of victories against Northern Adirondack this season, but both games were competitive.
The Patriots captured a 60-43 win Dec. 14 at home and grabbed a 52-43 victory Jan. 17 in Ellenburg.
"It's hard to beat a team three times in one season," Long said. "There's no question playing teams in your own section is difficult. We are all familiar with each other.
"It comes down to execution and keeping your composure. Our main focus will be playing strong defense in the half-court set and limiting them to one shot. Offensively we will try to execute with whatever they show us on defense. Try to get good looks and uncontested shots."
Meghan Strong has led the Patriots on offense this season with 14.3 points per game and has connected on 39 3-pointers. Taylor Saltus has also averaged double figures, scoring 11.4 points per game.
The Bobcats also have two players hitting double digits in points on the season. Rachael Venne leads the way at 11.3, while Taylor Durnin is right behind at 10.4. Magan Magee has connected on a team-high 16 3-pointers.
"Offensively I want my kids to have confidence and know that we can play with them," Barnhart said. "I hope they all can bring their A game and come ready to play.
"(AuSable) has some talented, hard working kids, and basketball-wise they are smart players. We will have to limit their outside shooting. Saltus and Strong also tend to take over; we will have to try to shut them down."
The Patriots landed in today's championship game after a 51-25 win over Ticonderoga in the semifinals. Northern Adirondack rolled past Seton Catholic 46-26 in its semifinal.

StoLotusan Color
Self-cleaning façade paint with Lotus-Effect®
Self-cleaning, innovative exterior paint with the Lotus-Effect®. Water is unable to
get a grip on the surface, and dirt simply washes off in the rain, keeping the façade
clean and dry for longer.
To ensure that the Lotus-Effect® works it is essential to prepare the surface with
Sto-Hydrogrund first.
For further information, visit the Lotusan FAQ.
Product Details
|Colour range:
|Available in a selection of 500 colours from the StoColor System
|Pack size:
|5ltr, 15ltr
|Approx. 5-6m2 per litre depending on substrate
|Roller, brush or airless spray device
Key Benefits
- Prevents water and dirt from settling on the surface. Any loose dirt is simply washed
away when it rains.
- By preventing damp and dirt deposits, StoLotusan Color provides the best natural
protection against algae growth on the painted surface.
- StoLotusan Color is a water based paint, free of solvents, biocides and other volatile
organic compounds.
- Excellent weather and UV resistance.
More information
- Not suitable for timber or metal substrates.
- Consumption rates shown are per coat. StoLotusan Color requires two coats to perform as intended. A 5m2 wall should therefore require 2 litres of paint.
- Requires rain water to work as intended.
- An algicidal film formation is added to StoLotusan Color to protect it during the curing process. Rain will naturally remove this ingredient once the paint has dried. This process takes approx. 2-6 weeks, during which time the Lotus-Effect® will not be 100% active.
- Oily materials, such as motor oil and tar, can't be washed away using the Lotus-Effect®.
- It should be noted that some water-borne/greasy deposits can cause staining, especially over detailing that can cause water to regularly drip onto the painted surface. It is therefore particularly important to ensure that cappings are used and that StoLotusan Color paint is only applied at 150mm above ground level to avoid ground water splashing.

The Floaters were an R&B vocal group from Detroit, Michigan, USA, that formed in 1976. The band was formed by the former The Detroit Emeralds' singer James Mitchell, with his brother Paul Mitchell, Larry Cunningham, Charles Clark, and the unrelated Ralph Mitchell. Their only top hit, "Float On", was written by Arnold Ingram, Marvin Willis and James Mitchell Jr., and produced by Woody Wilson. It became a world wide hit in 1977 on ABC Records, reaching #1 on the U.S. R&B chart, #2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, and #1 in the UK Singles Chart (for a single week in August that year).

Troopers said a Greer woman died a day after a crash in Spartanburg County.
The South Carolina Highway Patrol said the crash happened at 4:55 p.m. on Brockman McClimon Road on Sunday.
Troopers said the 45-year-old woman was driving west when she ran off the right side of the road, overcorrected, driving off the other side of the road and hit a tree. They said she was not wearing a seatbelt.
Spartanburg County Coroner Rusty Clevenger said the woman was Lorna Wright. He said she was initially taken to the Village at Pelham Hospital and a short time later she was transported to Spartanburg Regional Medical Center where she was died on Monday.
The South Carolina Highway Patrol is investigating the crash.

Please use the buttons below to see more information on Worcester Warriors and matches between Wasps and Worcester over the years.
It's two defeats out of two for Wasps, after a last-minute Worcester penalty stole a game which the Guinness Premiership champions could, and should, have made safe long before that fateful final kick, in the 11th minute of injury time. A losing bonus point will be scant consolation, after a performance which, though better than the opening weekend's defeat against London Irish, was still far short of the Wasps standard.
To add to their woes, Wasps lost both skipper Raphael Ibanez and veteran lock, Simon Shaw, to injuries. Ibanez had taking some heavy knocks and Shaw suffered a thigh strain.
The Wasps lineup included Dave Walder, making a welcome come back, five months after a fracture dislocation (against the same opposition) had brought his season to a cruel end. Sadly for Walder and the side, returning to Adams Park for the first time this season it was to be no fairytale return.
Straight from kick off Worcester won possession and attacked down the left where new signing, Chris Latham, took play deep into the 22 before a knock on ended a threatening move. Wasps won the ensuing scrum, but immediately conceded possession through an accidental offside. Eoin Reddan then did well to steal Worcester ball before sending a kick downfield which was knocked on to set up a Wasps scrum. Building momentum, Josh Lewsey came into the line down the right before the ball was recycled and moved back to the left, where Walder's long pass sent Dominic Waldouck into the visitors 22. However the home side were then penalised at the breakdown and Worcester had the chance to clear the danger.
Wasps had their first scoring chance when Paul Sackey fielded a clearance kick and counterattacked to just outside the 22 setting up a 35-metre drop at goal for Walder, however the kick was off target for the returning fly half. Wasps then strung together their first sustained move of the game with the forwards taking it through several phases before Riki Flutey found some space down the left, but frustratingly for Wasps the move ended in a Worcester penalty.
The first round of the inevitable aerial ping-pong came on 13 minutes, and, after a series of kicks Tom Voyce found himself under pressure near his own line, but Wasps managed to keep possession and Reddan put in a much-needed clearance.
Worcester were again on the attack after another series of kicks saw them win possession to set up space for Myles Benjamin down the left but Sackey was across quickly forcing his opposite number into touch. A minute later, Worcester took the lead, as a towering kick from fly half Matthew Jones got the better of Lewsey and centre Sam Tuitupou followed up to gather the loose ball and crash over. Jones was unable to add the conversion.
Walder had a chance to open the Wasps account, when Worcester were penalised for crossing after Latham gathered a high ball, but his long-range kick drifted wide. Two minutes later, Worcester stretched their lead to 8-0 as Jones made no mistake with a straightforward penalty from 30 metres.
As the half progressed a long Walder penalty downfield found space deep inside the Wasps 22 and the chasing Reddan caught winger Chris Pennell in possession, but Wasps again transgressed at the breakdown. Walder's next penalty to touch, from the centre spot, was over-hit, and went into touch in goal.
As the changing room beckoned frustration was the order of the day as Wasps continued to set up promising positions, only to be let down by basic errors and avoidable offences. Clearly encouraged by their lead, Worcester continued to apply the pressure and one powerful burst by flanker James Collins took play into the 22.
With three minutes of the half left, Simon Shaw was helped off pitch with a thigh injury and was replaced by Richard Birkett. Eager to get points on the board Wasps launched their best move of the game, ended temporarily by Tuitupou's thunderous hit on James Haskell, but the Worcester counterattack broke down and the ball was spun out to the right where Sackey went close. When play came back infield, Reddan broke to the left of a ruck, before swiveling round to pass back inside to Sackey, who went over between the posts. Walder narrowed the gap to a single point with the easy conversion.
Enthused by the score, Wasps upped the tempo in the closing minutes of the half with Riki Flutey showing the skills of a flanker to win turnover possession from a Worcester counterattack, before chipping downfield to again stretch the visitors' defence. The half ended with another powerful Wasps attack breaking down deep inside the 22.
With a point between the two sides as the second half got underway, Wasps made their second substitution of the day as skipper Raphael Ibanez was replaced by Wasps young gun Rob Webber – a heavy knock to Ibanez in the first half forcing him to retire to the bench.
Wasps did well to secure their own restart and a promising position was set up on the right but they again were guilty crossing. Then, after Tom Rees's powerful run from a lineout Flutey forced his way into the 22, but Wasps went off their feet at the tackle.
Despite these disappointments, Wasps were now playing their best rugby of the game and the Worcester defence was being severely stretched. After one furious attack, Worcester prop Chris Horsman limped off to be replaced by Tevita Taumoepeau and his side immediately turned round a Wasps scrum under the posts.
Sustained pressure on the Worcester line, after Voyce and Webber had gone close, then gave Walder a short-range penalty which he gratefully landed to put his side ahead 11 minutes into the half. Wasps were now really beginning to find their game and Rees and Haskell's powerful running was making inroads into the defence, setting up one flowing move in which Flutey and Lewsey were both prominent. Worrying, Phil Vickery went down clutching his left leg but he was able to resume after treatment.
Good hands in the backs then sent Voyce clear down the left but Latham was on hand to put in a crucial tackle and Wasps again conceded a penalty. For several minutes that became the pattern with Wasps playing some exciting rugby with Rees, Voyce, Flutey, Reddan and Birkett all to the fore. Frustratingly though they couldn't find the final pass and continued to concede penalties at the breakdown.
Walder then set up an attack with a cheeky chip from his own 22, gathering the loose ball before sending another kick deep into Worcester territory where Pennell gathered and put in a magnificent clearance finding touch near the Wasps line. This launched a period of sustained Worcester pressure, which was only kept out by desperate defence. The siege was lifted when it was the visitors' turn to concede a penalty,after a lineout from a penalty kick to the corner.
Wasps then squandered an overlap on the left, when Waldouck's pass failed to find Voyce and rolled harmlessly into touch with acres of inviting space ahead of the winger.
A minute later, Voyce's chip ahead found touch a few metres from the line. Wasps put pressure on the defensive lineout, to win what could have been crucial ball, but possession was lost in the contact and Worcester were able to clear upfield. Lewsey then set off on a counterattack, only to spill the ball in the tackle.
With just over ten minutes to go, Wasps fans had their hearts in their mouths, as a sweeping Worcester move appeared to have created a potentially match-winning try but Pennell's inside pass to Latham was adjudged to have gone forward.
With three minutes of normal time left and the referee playing advantage for a high tackle on Waldouck, Reddan put in a delicate little chip to the corner and Sackey was just beaten to the rolling ball. Play was taken back to the penalty, but Walder's 40-metre kick from near the left touchline was well short of the target.
A wonderful piece of work on the floor by Rees set up another powerful Wasps assault, but lost possession enabled Latham to clear down the right touchline. Play continued before a Worcester kick went dead at Wasps end, only for the assistant referee to bring things back to the Worcester 22 for Tim Payne's late challenge on the fullback.
The game seemed to be over when Worcester ran a penalty with the clock down to zero but the ball was scrambled into the Wasps 22, where another home offence gave replacement fly-half Crichton the chance to clinch a win with the last kick of the game. As Wasps looked on and silence spread through Adams Park he made no mistake and in a final blow secured Worcester's first ever win on Wasps territory.
Ian McGeechan Postmatch Reaction
Reflecting on the performance, Wasps Director of Rugby, was clearly disappointed with the result but did see and improvement on the previous week's outing at Twickenahm. "We were better than last week, but we still made far too many mistakes. Some of the penalties were a little harsh, but that was a game that was there for the taking.
"I think we're still trying to play too much rugby and we need to be a bit more patient. But we've a good set of players and I'm confident that we'll soon be in the position where we take the chances we set up."
The next two weeks sees tricky away trips, to Northampton and Leicester, before Wasps return to Adams Park for an evening game against Bath, on October the 1st. Tickets for both these games are available from the Northampton Saints and Leicester Tigers Ticket Office.

Shiner 101 Czech Style Pilsner - Spoetzl Brewery

4.35/5 rDev +23.9%
Shiner 101 Czech-Style Pilsner is a very good beer! It has a creamy, medium-sized, off-white head, and a bright, golden color. Carbonation is moderate. Aroma is not strong, but smells of grain and hops. The taste is smooth, and it has just the right amount of hops, even though I usually prefer more bitterness. The beer is mild, without much bite. Mouth feel is light and watery. Shiner 101 finishes nicely with not much heaviness. Overall, this is one of the better Shiner products, which sometimes (like their bock) come across bland and limp.

I think Spoetzl makes some decent lager beers,a bit modest but still pretty good.Poured into a Czech lager glass a lighter golden shade with a nice fluffy white head atop.Aromas were mainly mineral-like with a bit of toasty grain,flavors are light and crisp with some of that iron/mineral,a bit of sweetness,and a decent shot of spicy saaz in the finish.Its a good drinker and better than basic,great to drink while grillin out on a hot North Carolia day like today.

I had a few of these the day after drinking some Shiner Oktoberfest. While not a great beer, this one was light years ahead of the Ofest.
Nice clear gold color with a medium-sized white head.
Grassy, hay-like aroma. Some sweet malt.
Big malt presence in the taste. Little bit of hops.
A passable Czech pilsener. Pretty nice.

Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a Pilsener glass. The label has a brief description of the beer but no ABV or freshness date.
Appearance: The body has a bright yellow color which has good clarity and some visible carbonation. A tall bright white head sits on top and hangs on well. On the glass the head leaves decent lace patterns.
Smell: It's clean and light with pale biscuity malt and spicy floral hop notes.
Taste/Palate: A clean and pale bready/biscuity malt lays down a good base for a tasty and delicate spicy/floral come through. The finish is clean and the palate is snappy and refreshing.
Notes: This is straight up one of the cleanest Czech Pilsners that I have tried. I like to see delicate Pilsners in dark brown bottles!!!

12 ounce bottle from the Shiner mixed box, that just started being distributed in my neck of the woods.
Pours clear medium almond. Minor of white head, film, thin colar and moderate low bits of lace.
Just a hint of malt on the nose.
Malty and quite dry pils. Dark malts, some light smoke and rye notes. Dry through the finish. Decent.

Pours golden yellow with a white head. The beer is very clear. The aroma is wheat, malt and some grassy hops. I also get a slight butteryness. The flavor is similar with a nice touch of bitterness from the grassy hops. The butter is there as well, taking away from the overall flavor. Thin mouthfeel and medium carbonation. An unremarkable beer, but one of the better ones from Shiner.

A: This beer poured a nice clear golden color with a decent white head, that lasted for all but 30 seconds, however, the lacing is proving to be promising for the entire drink.
S: Smelled like a generic Czech pilsner.
T: Surprisingly this beer was bright and balanced, unlike the smell led me to believe. Where it did lead me to believe that it was a generic Czech pilsner, that would be a half hearted attempt, it didn't have the tin (or metallic) flavoring that goes with the majority of Czech style pilsner I've tasted.
M: Overall it left my mouth dry, which I like, and my tongue tingling for more.
D: I'd rate this higher if it wouldn't have just been a seasonal beer.
Overall, interesting try, would have been better if it wasn't just one run. Good luck in your findings.

A-Clear golden color, transparent thin white head.
S-Asiago cheese smells at first. This quickly fades. Then I have to go searching for any smells. Definetly pick up those wet river rock smells as described in the other reviews. There is also a slight scotch tape smell.
T&M.F.-A narrow malt presence. Overtaken by bitter hops upfront. Hops lack flavor. Tastes like extract. Maybe a bit of rice too. M.f. is smooth, uneventful.
D-This tastes like a Miller Lite. Which they may have been going for. I thought I was going to get an American presentation of a Czech Pilsner as described on the label! But this is just American Macro knockoff. Back to the drawing boards with this one.

Pours an effervescent honey color with one finger of ivory head. Average head retention & lacing
S: Grassyness & cooked veggies & a touch of honey once warm, plus some floral hops
T: Lemony hops, a touch of grassyness with light breadyness up front. Honey malt & lemony hops as this warms. Finishes crisp, with mineral dryess & a nice bready sweetness
MF: Light bodied, crisp, carbonation is nicely done on this one, great balance too
Not the best Pils out there, but engaging enough to drink 3 or 4 watching the game or hanging out at the lake. Not a huge Shiner fan, but they did a pretty good job on this one

Pours a crystal clear toasted straw color. A few shades darker than your traditional pils. The white head is fluffy and slowly dissipates leaving some lacing on the glass.
The aroma is quite light. Slightly bready malt provides a sweet aroma and there is a touch of grassy hops. Overall, a bit weak for the style.
The flavor is light and dry. A cracker flavor from the pils malt but there is some depth from a breadier malt. The hops are light but grassy. A sweeter breadier pils basically.
The feel is light and crisp, very easy to drink. Good balance, good summer time brew.
Not the most flavorful pils but no off flavors. Again, easy drinking brew.

Police in Maple Shade say they have identified the man wanted in connection to a Tuesday morning copper theft.
Investigators say they have issued arrest warrants for 46-year-old Joseph Bordo, Jr. The suspect is a former resident of Maple Shade, but investigators say it's not clear where he currently lives.
According to police, Bordo is wanted in connection to a theft that happened Tuesday morning at an unoccupied home on the 600 block of Princeton Avenue.
Officers were called to the home after the landlord's son found a pickup truck parked in the driveway. While calling his father, police say a man came out of the front door with a container full of copper pipes, threw them into the back of his truck and sped off.
Investigators say they were able to locate the copper in Camden, where the man allegedly sold the pipes.
Bordo faces burglary, criminal mischief and theft charges, police said.
If you have any information on Bordo's whereabouts, you're asked to call 856-382-8300 and reference case 2013-6334.
Police warn that you should not approach Bordo.

People start most wildfires. Owen County fire departments are responding to an increase of grass fires in Owen County due to dead grass from the winter. It only takes a minute for the wind to blow the fire from a fire and cause it to get out of your control.
David Lilly, the chief of the Owenton Volunteer Fire Department, said the public can promote and practice wildfire safety.
We certainly could learn a lesson from the grumpy old man caught napping in the recliner by his mischievous grandson. The boy sneaked off to the refrigerator and got a chunk of stinky Limberger cheese and quietly rubbed it into Grandpa's beard. Soon enough the stench awakened the old man who fussed that the house stinks. He walked outside, took a whiff and complained that the yard stinks. He walked out on the hillside, drew another breath and declared that the whole world stinks, when, in fact, it was only that old man who stunk.

Apple Cream Shortcakes Recipe
"Here's a new take on two old favorites—shortcake and apple pie," writes Athena Russell of Florence, South Carolina. The apple flavor makes it an ideal autumn dish.
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cold butter
- 1/4 cup 2% milk
- 1-1/2 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in milk just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 3-4 times.
- Roll out into an oval, about 1/2 in. thick. Using a floured 2-1/2 -in. biscuit cutter, cut out two circles. Place 1 in. apart on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
- Bake at 425° for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
- In a small saucepan, combine the filling ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 3-4 minutes or until apples are tender and sauce is thickened. Remove from the heat; cool slightly.
- In a small bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add sugar; beat until stiff peaks form.
- To assemble, split shortcakes in half. Place cake bottoms on dessert plates. Top with apple mixture and whipped cream. Replace shortcake tops. Yield: 2 servings.

People angry over Boston 'bomber' grave
The city of Boston released an updated death certificate for Tsarnaev showing that he was buried in Al-Barzakh Muslim Cemetery in Doswell, Virginia, outside Richmond.
– Ammar Amonette, imam of the Virginia Islamic center,
It was done by individuals without our knowledge or consent.We are quite upset. It's affected thousands of Muslims and we were not consulted. It has nothing to do with us.
His body was moved from the Boston medical examiner's office to the Worcester funeral home, but his family did not claim the body and the cities of Boston and Cambridge refused to accept his remains.
– Floyd Thomas, chairman of the Caroline County Board of Supervisors
We don't want the county to be known as the place where the remains of someone who committed this crime are buried. But if it was done legally, there is nothing much we can do about it.
Worcester police said on Thursday a person had approached them with a solution for the body after a public plea for help.Police withheld the identify of that person.
