He carries the honor with pride, crediting all involved with Chaplin for his nomination. "Ever since the nominations came out, I've just been trying to track how many people are responsible for me being right here, right now, in this moment, in this time," McClure said. "The number of miracles that had to happen…to culminate in this celebration for me in this role…! For me to be here is the greatest honor."
But what really sent him "over the edge," he said, was when he received a text message from a student at New Milford High School, who was involved with the school's production of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. The high schooler said the entire school "erupted in first period" when they heard his name announced on television. "It's that type of thing that makes me realize how long this journey has been," said McClure. "It didn't start at my audition for this show. It started when teachers at that school started nurturing my interest in [theatre]."
McClure, truly inspired from his high school experience, added, "What they're doing at their school is remarkable. Performing on Broadway at the Barrymore Theatre in Chaplin on Broadway was the exact same experience as performing How to Succeed… my junior year of high school — in terms of what we're doing. We're playing make believe for the sake of storytelling, and trying to convince an audience that what's happening on stage is real and affect them. If high schools do it successfully, they're doing the same thing, and they're training the generations of artists who are going to keep this medium alive."

Sup, y'all. I've started working on a Knicks-themed podcast for my friends over at Stiffjab.com and our second episode just went up. Give it a listen and let me know what you think! And Seth, we're looking to start bringing in guests soon, so, ya know... Just sayin!
Watch our favorite, the man himself, big Bags, run around like a chicken with his head cut off
somehow i don't think this would make the blazers 6 games worse. and something tells me the warriors would be a little better. but it definitely makes the knicks awful. not clearly stated, knicks give one first round pick to each team in bi-consecutive years, unprotected. to the nets, warriors and blazers in that order.
From Charles Dolan to Carmelo to JR to Shumpert, Henry waxes poetic on the ugly season.
Hey P&Ters! It's been a while since I last corresponded here, but I wanted to tell you guys about a Knicks Ticket Giveaway that my site, CHARGED.fm is holding. We're giving out 2 pairs of tickets to tonight's season opener against the Milwaukee Bucks. There are only a few things you need to do to enter, and the contest is open until 6 p.m. Just follow the link above and it will give you all the details you need to know!

Final reflections on Franken vs. Coleman
by desmoinesdem, Tue Jun 30, 2009 at 04:02:55 PM EDT
It's a relief to close the book on the 2008 elections now that Al Franken will finally be able to take up the Senate seat he won last November.
Talking Points Memo posted their Top 10 moments from the mostly infuriating, sometimes comical Franken-Coleman saga.
We can laugh at Coleman's pretzel logic during the legal proceedings, but unfortunately, his gamesmanship deprived Minnesota of full representation in the Senate for half a year. In all likelihood Franken will be stuck with less-than-stellar committee assignments. Also, the delay did lasting damage to Franken's seniority. Had he been sworn in on time, he would have outranked several fellow Senate Democrats, which could become important one or two terms down the road.
Nevertheless, I have high hopes for Senator Franken and look forward to his work in Washington.
P.S.- I still don't understand why so many Minnesotans voted for Dean Barkley.
P.P.S.- Rush Limbaugh is still a big fat idiot.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass., October 14, 2006 – The Springfield College field hockey team defeated Wheaton College, 4-2, this afternoon in an important battle of New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) unbeatens at SC's Benedum Field in front of a Homecoming Day crowd.
With the win, 16th-ranked Springfield is now 11-3 overall and 6-0 in NEWMAC play, while Wheaton falls to 12-4 overall and 4-1 in the conference. SC has now won four straight, while Wheaton had a six-game winning streak snapped.
In today's game, the score was 1-1 at the half. Springfield junior forward Brittany Veazie (Dexter, Maine), the reigning NEWMAC Co-Player of the Week, gave the home team a 1-0 lead at the 14:20 mark. But Wheaton junior forward Lyndsie Ryalls tied it about five minutes later. There was a rare double assist awarded on Ryalls' goal, to sophomore forward Alisa Ardito and junior forward Sarah Dimick.
It remained 1-1 early in the second half, but then Springfield exploded for three goals in a span of 7:18. Veazie began it all with her second score of the game at 41:18. Her goal was assisted by sophomore forward Jane Kelleher (Chatham, Mass.). Then it was Kelleher scoring twice, her 14th and 15th goals of the season, at 46:10 and 48:36. Both goals were assisted by junior forward Eileen Jenkins (Gorham, Maine).
The Lyons then answered with just 3:59 remaining to close it to 4-2 on a tally by sophomore forward Rachel Alfiero.
Each goalkeeper played the full 70 minutes. For Springfield, junior Emma Kaplan (Ridgefield, Conn.) was credited with 16 saves, while for Wheaton, senior Mary Catherine Boll was credited with 15 saves.
Up next, Springfield will host Ithaca College tomorrow afternoon, October 15th, at 1:00 p.m. in a non-conference tilt. Wheaton will next host Wellesley College in a league contest on Tuesday afternoon, October 17th at 4:00 p.m.

Here's a look at a key matchup heading into Monday night's battle between the Bears and Lions.
Bears DE Julius Peppers vs. Lions OLT Jeff Backus
The Bears' defense is far less effective when Peppers is kept at bay. The secondary gets picked apart when the defensive line struggles to generate pressure, and Lions QB Matthew Stafford, who wasn't sacked in 43 dropbacks against the Cowboys last week, will make a defense pay when he has time to throw.
Peppers is a freakish athlete, but he has been credited with one QB hit over the past three games. The Bears need more from him, and he could deliver against Detroit.
Backus is slow-footed and often struggles when matched up against some of the league's best rushers off the edge, which Peppers certainly is. Vikings DE Jared Allen beat Backus repeatedly in Week Three, sacking Stafford three times, and Peppers' rare combination of speed, power, size and agility is going to give Backus problems.
There's no doubt the Lions remember Week One of last season, when Peppers sacked Stafford late in the first half, knocking him out of the game with a shoulder injury that kept Stafford out until Week Eight.
Lions offensive coordinator Scott Linehan likely will have Stafford make quick, three-step drops to help counter Peppers' quickness off the edge if the pressure starts to become an issue. It will be incumbent upon the Bears' defenders to make good tackles to keep short passes from becoming long gains.

Training for a 5K course is a success
May 08, 2010
Winston-Salem, NC-The Salem College physical education department introduced "Training for a 5K" as a new course this spring semester. The purpose of the course was to train Salem students to prepare for a five-kilometer road race. The class culminated with the members participating in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, which is hosted at Salem College.
The class was instructed by Head Cross Country and Track and Field Coach Shawn Marek. Samantha Styers (Walnut Cove, NC), Ariel Barker (Monroe, NC), Julie Ann Bigsby (Salisbury, NC) and Catherine Mixon (Simpsonville, SC) are all members of the Salem College Cross Country team that were enrolled in the class. They helped mentor the other class members to running faster times from the start of the course until the Race for the Cure. The majority of these other students had no experience with long distance running. The class also consisted of six other student-athletes from volleyball, swimming, basketball, and soccer.

Who is QUALIFIED to replace Ellen O. Tauscher?
Original post made by Community courtesy on Mar 29, 2009
Please read: Web Link
This morning's e-exchanges are filled with amazement that Mark DeSalnier and Joan Buchanan would be considered viable candidates for Congress. Ellen Tauscher has become our congressional member due to her expertise in global relationships and her well-developed conservative fiscal responsibility in office. Ms. Tauscher came into office with exceptional global financial background and operational expertise.
Mark and Joan are both talented and trusted representatives of our region in state government, but clearly neither have credentials for representing our global interests in congress. In the current global fiscal crisis and unresolved USAmerican violence, we need immediate qualifications ready for the global stage.

Any citizen, 25 years of age or older, registered to vote in the 10th CD, is qualified to run for this job. Who's best for the job? If experience in foreign affairs, money and banking were the criteria, I'd say my ex-wife Betsy would be best. She's a registered Dem, formerly Rep, like Mark and myself, but went to HS in Karachi, Pakistan, and her Dad had a degree in International Economics, Money and Banking from Yale. My son Eric, with an MS in Nuclear Engeneering, from Idaho, who worked his way through school at INEL, would be great. Experience is the best teacher, but often the cruelest. Successful political experience, such as Mark, Joan, or Joe have, all 3 centrists, are more likely winners. But, as most incumbents are blamed for the economy, who knows. Politics is the world's 2nd oldest profession, with similarities to the 1st.

Ellen Tauscher has been a blight on Contra Costa for way too long and I am glad to see her go. She has NOT represented the interests of this district for far too long and has only been re-elected because she runs as a Democrat, which is hardly enough qualification to represent this district. In the same vane, Mark DeSalnier and Joan Buchanan have done a horrific job representing this district at the state level and have proven that they can't even spell "fiscal responsibility", always voting the party line rather than representing us. We need to look long and hard for someone who has qualifications far beyond being a Democrat, but alas, I fear that that qualification will be enough for too many of this districts residents.

Anyone 25 years of age, registered to vote in CD-10, is QUALIFIED to run in this election, should it take place.

A 72-year-old man is recovering after being shot while fending off burglars at his McDonough home.Henry County police say that two intruders broke into Sidney Haskins' home on Avalon Drive early Wednesday.Sgt. Joey Smith of the Henry County Police Department said that Haskins fired a warning shot from his garage. One of the intruders returned fire, hitting Haskins in the abdomen.Haskins' son, Stewart, said that his father, a widower who lives alone, was able to crawl to the kitchen and dial 911."He knew that if he didn't climb up on that counter and get that phone that he was going to die," said Stewart Haskins.Henry County Police say the same night Haskins was shot, there were a series of auto break-ins in the neighborhood where some credit cards were stolen."They were possibly used in the metro Atlanta area and what we're trying to do is locate those places to see if they have any kind of video surveillance or anything like that," said Smith.Residents on Avalon Drive told police the two assailants fled in a silver truck. A mysterious white box truck was also seen.Haskins is in intensive care at Grady Memorial Hospital.Stewart Haskins says his father was a long time pharmacists with a big heart."Frankly, I think one of our friends said it best when they were told he'd been shot, they said, 'Why would anybody want to shoot him,'" said Stewart.Police said the intruders stole a weed-eater from Haskins' home. Anyone with information on the case is urged to contact the Henry County Police Department at 770-288-8304.

First 30 Days Campaign
This awareness campaign runs throughout the month of September as a response to the fact that college age women are four times more likely to be sexually assaulted than women in any other age group.
*The First 30 Days Campaign*
This awareness campaign runs throughout the month of September as a response to the fact that college age women are four times more likely to be sexually assaulted than women in any other age group as well as the fact the first month of college is the most vulnerable, at-risk time for first year female students.
During the campaign, the Women's Resource Center partners with the Health and Wellness Center to host the Awareness and Prevention Fair during Community Time in Ferraggiaro Quad. The fair features both on campus departments and off campus agencies that provide support, information, and resources for survivors of sexual assault and dating violence and their significant others. This year's fair was be held on Wednesday, September 18th.
30 Safety Tips for the First 30 Days
- Be aware of your surroundings. Knowing where you are and who is around you may help you to find a way to get out of a bad situation
- Try to avoid isolated areas. It is more difficult to get help if no one is around
- Walk with purpose. Even if you don't know where you are going, act like you do
- Trust your instincts. If a situation or location feels unsafe or uncomfortable, do what you can to get out of it - your insticnts are most likely right
- Make sure your cell phone is with you and charged at all times
- Try not to be isolated with someone you don't trust and know well
- Be cautious when using the internet. Never give out private information about yourself, your family, or your roommates (phone number, where you live, etc.) to people you don't know or post that type of information on social networking sites like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter
- Memorize the phone numbers of a few close friends and carry money for an emergency call
- Make sure someone knows where you're going, who you're with, and when you'll be home
Residence Hall Safety
- Lock your door when you go to sleep and when you are not in the room
- Keep your window locked (especially if it is easy to enter from the ground)
- If people constantly prop open the main res hall door, talk to an RA or RD about it
Walking Around Campus
- Be familiar with where emergency phones are installed on the campus
- Be aware of open buildings where you can use a phone or find people
- Take major, public paths rather than less populated shortcuts
- Avoid dimly lit places and talk to facilities services if lights need to be installed in an area
- Walking back from the library or a friend's residence hall very late at night is sometimes unavoidable, so try to walk with a friend. If walking feels unsafe, you can call Public Safety for an escort anytime (925-631-4282)
- Carry a noisemaker (like a whistle) and a small flashlight on your keychain
In Social Situations and at Parties
- When you go to a party, go with a group of friends. Arrive together, check in with each other and leave together
- If you choose to drink, practice safe drinking. Keep track of how many drinks you've had and don't let yourself get out of control
- Have a buddy system. Don't be afraid to let a friend know if something is making you uncomfortable or if you are worried about your or your friend's safety
- If someone you don't know or trust asks you to go somewhere alone, let him or her know that you would rather stay with the group
- Be aware of drug facilitated sexual assault:
• Try not to leave your drink unattended
• Only drink from un-opened containers or from drinks you have watched being made and poured
• Avoid group drinks like punch bowls
• Cover your drink. It is easy to slip in a small pill even while you are holding your drink. Hold a cup with your hand over the top, or choose drinks that are contained in a bottle and keep your thumb over the nozzle
• If you feel extremely tired or drunk for no apparent reason, you may have been drugged. Find your friends and ask them to leave with you as soon as possible
• If you suspect you have been drugged, go to a hospital and ask to be tested
If Someone is Pressuring You
- Don't feel obligated to do anything you don't want to. "I don't want to" is always a good enough reason. Do what feels right to you and what you are comfortable with
- Have a code word with your friends so that if you don't feel comfortable you can call them and communicate your discomfort without the person you are with knowing. Your friends can then come to get you or make up an excuse for you to leave
- Know your personal boundaries and communicate them clearly. You have the right to say no and to change your mind at any point!
- Don't assume your partner can read your mind. Tell the person you are with how far you want to go, what you want and don't want to do, and when you want to stop
- Don't be afraid to speak up. If you are being pressured or you start to feel uncomfortable, let the other person know how you feel and get out of the situation, even if it's awkward or hurts the other person's feelings
- Listen carefully to the person you're with. If your partner says no to sexual contact or her/his body language tells you that she/he is unwilling or unsure, respect your partner's limits and stop
- Don't assume you know what another person wants. Just because a person chooses to drink, wears sexy clothing, agrees to be alone with you, or consents to kissing or other sexual touching DOES NOT mean that they are willing to have sex. Always ask for consent and remember that if someone has been drinking, they're not legally able to give consent.
Remember, if you or a friend experiences sexual assault, it is not your fault and there is help! Contact the Campus Assault Resources and Empowerment (CARE) Line 24/7 at (925)878-9207 for anonymous support.

Nothing over-special about this, but it's good. appearance is average for brews... smell is also average...it smells almost like a wheat beer to me. The taste is good... reminds me of some hefe's. Mouthfeel is also good as it's smooth. The drinkability is above average because I couldn't drink it all day into the night, but I could put a few back without problem.

It has a pale yellow color with a frothy white head. The aroma is light with a grainy and hay like nose. The flavor has a bland cereal grain malt with some grassy hops. A thin body lively carbonation and a clean finish make it very drinkable and refreshing. For a pale lager it's about what you would expect but for over 5 bucks for a 12 oz. bottle at the Outback Steakhouse, its way over priced.

I decided to write an unbiased review while drinking this from the bottle (fresh twist-tops - 250mL throwies) and it's really unnecessary. Before tonight I hadn't had anything to drink for over a month, to get my head straight, and tonight I started with a 330mL Chimay, which was delicious, but when I moved on to the New, it made me want to stop drinking again, at least until I can get hold of a longneck of Cooper's. The smell is actually the worst part, but I agree it tastes really chemical, artificial and offensive, but even I can overlook these in a dingy dive with two jugs of this for $5. Tastes like shite; gets you maggot.

As a standard macro beer, you'd expect it to be at least drinkable.......wrong, horribly chemicaly and is only drinkable when ice cold (and i'm talking like 0 degrees) so that you can't taste the flavour, horrific.

Why am i drinking this beer???? Well they have started to import this beer to Sweden and i was a little curious to try it. But i'm not very curious anymore... What is there to say about it? Not much!! It doesn't taste much. It doesn't taste anything. There is a hint of bitterness in the aftertaste and there is a hint of citrus in the smell and in the taste. The colour is golden. But that is the only gold this beer gets.

Not alot to say about this poor example of a beer. I remember once having one from a bottle, thinking, hmm. This tastes better than it usually does. I held it up to the light. And realized there was floaties in my bottle. The beer was a few years old.
And it improved it.

Tooheys New
Appearance- Light copper brown with a thick soapy head. No lacing and the head disappated quickly.
Smell- Sweet corn syrup and rice, basically adjunct.
Taste- A sweet corn and rice mixture. Some sugary malt that becomes metallic.
Mouthfeel- Sweet and flat up front with a tangy metallic finish.
Overall- Blahhh. A cheap macro here, nothing more. Use it for drinking games.

12.7 oz. twist-off
AP: Crazy, spiraling bubbles, crystal clear golden color, 2" thick, bubbly all-white head that dissiptes to almost nothing quickly.
Nose: Bready makt, wheat, very,very subtle herbal hop, corn and grains. Metallic sourness after a while in the glass.
Flavor: a very thin corn and wheat malt flavor, very light and subtle flavors, basically not much more impressive than the usual imported macro lager.
Feel: light, crisp, becomes softer and flatter after only a little while.
DA: Pair this rather meek brew with some spicey indian food and the sweet malt flavors really pop out a bit more.

Beer(?) of my outing to Outback for dinner.
Poured clear gold with a white head of semi-course bubbles that receded and vanished with a minute or two.
Had a basic, grainy macro lager smell that was rather weak.
Taste was also grainy and somewhat sweet and a little metallic. No hops were detected, just some more corny sweetness at the finish. Several times during my meal I had forgotten this beer was sitting next to me and I was drinking from my mug of water at least as often. Not a beer I'd seek out again.

Tried this one at Outback Steakhouse...when in Rome right?
A - I like the bottle, and this beer pours a dark bronze hue with minimal head and only a little creamy lace on the glass. Not much to look at really, but I appreciate the darker shade for the style.
S - I smell some deep (for the style) oatmeal notes along with some grainy husky aromas. This smells decent enough. It's actually pretty assertive for the style.
T - This is husky and grainy, with a unique flavor that almost reminds me of baked beans or something. not bad at all.
M - Light, but approaching medium bodied with a good deal of carbonation and a creamy finish.
D - If this is called a macro lager, it's right up there with the good but slightly boring Japanese lagers. This is similar to Asahi or Kiriin Ichiban...must be the Pacific DNA.

Toohey's New... not bad, but nothing new. It's pretty standard. I guess they figured it was a good name to launch a new beer with.
It pours a golden colored body beneath a thick head of frothy white. It looks good initially, but the head falls rather quickly to an average collar, and only minimal lacing is left behind.
The aroma is fairly generic, displaying straight-forward golden maltiness and a bit of hops.
The flavor delivers sweetish malt upfront, but with a solid bitterness and a decent amount of herbal, grassy, and spicy hops mixed in it, it's completely balanced. It finishes dry, and short lingering as the hops fade.
In the mouth it's medium bodied and smooth.
So, Australian for beer? Ahh, maybe not. It's alright. I'd have another but I don't think it has great drinkability. I'd compare it to most euro lagers on that score. It's a solid lager though, and nicely done though. Cheers!

What the hell isn't there to like about this Aussie kick ass beer. Sure it may not be the best beer one has ever tasted...but it sure aint the worst. This is a smooth drinkable lager that can rival any shit macro in the states. It is better than BUD, Genuine, Heini-shit, Amstel, etc!!!! It is light copper color, with no real identifyable scent. Taste is solid and I COULD DRINK FOR HOURS!!!! HELLO!!! Stay thirsty my friends!

12.7oz bottle
A- Pours a golden yellow color with a fizzy white head that leaves a decent amount of lacing around the glass.
S- The aroma is grain with just a hint of sulfur and a touch of grassy hops. The aroma is also a little metallic, nothing really special here.
T- The taste like the aroma is light bodied with some grain and not much in the way of hops except for just a touch of grassy hop bitterness way in the back.
M- The mouthfeel is light bodied and fizzy from the high amount of carbonation.
D- This is a below average lager that I really wouldn't have any interest in drinking again. Not a bad beer, but nothing really stands out at all to warrant a repeat purchase.

This ended up being a very average beerfrom color and aroma down to the taste.
poured the color of what the average beer drinker would think what a beer should look like . orange , gold color.
Had a white , finger size head that faded rather quickly , lots of carbonation . the nitro widget held some but not much . left a little cap of lace.
aroma was like the smell of your local bar. a little stale smell.
slight bitterness from the hops but nothing that really stands out , some fruit , and a little sweet all mixed in. had a carb. tingle on the tongue.
over all a very average beer . nothing to go out of the way for.

Poured from a brown 12.7? oz. bottle. Has a light brown color with a very small head. Aroma is of mild malts and grains. Taste a tad malty with some bitterness, not a whole lot of flavor. Feels light in the mouth and has average drinkability. Overall this is a mediocre selection.

S: The nose had light traces of caramel, and oranges. Again not much here.
T: oranges and sweet caramel with some sweet honey malt. A brisk carbonation and dry oranges comes through in the finish.
M: The mouthful was light with some effervesce around the edges with some dry caramel.
D: less then average drinkability, though unlikely I would sit around and drink in multiples or anytime in the near future.

Tasted somewhere in Southwest Rocks.
Hmmm... I visited Australia to taste something suspiciously similar to Budweiser.... Well, it's yellowed with white head; Not much to smell here. Taste is crisp and slightly sweet. Not very full in the mouth. Clearly the attempt here was at something easy to knock back a lot of....
Overall, inoffensive, but not worthwhile.

Here's an update on how several key Browns are recovering from injuries, as well as a look at how they fit into the club's plans:
LB Scott Fujita — Fujita was one of the Browns' top defensive players before suffering a knee injury in Week 10. One of the team's leaders, Fujita helped coordinate player-only workouts during the work stoppage. Look for him to start at outside linebacker in Dick Jauron's 4-3 scheme.
RB Montario Hardesty — Slated for a key role in the offense as a rookie, Hardesty suffered a season-ending torn anterior cruciate ligament in his knee in the Browns' final preseason game of 2010. If he's healthy, he'll back up Peyton Hillis and provide another hard-nosed runner in a physical backfield. Hardesty told The (Willoughby, Ohio) News-Herald that he will be "ready" for training camp.
LB D'Qwell Jackson — He has missed most of the past two seasons with pectoral injuries, but Jackson told PFW in May that he's on-schedule on his recovery from his most recent injury. He could get looks at middle linebacker and on the weak side in the new defense, where he projects as a starter after re-signing before the lockout. One of the Browns' best defensive players before his injuries, Jackson gets a fresh start in a scheme better suited to his skills.
LB Kaluka Maiava — Maiava, who was limited to two games in 2010 after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his right knee, told PFW in June that he was about "90 percent" recovered from his injuries. He likely will play on the weak side in the 4-3.
TE Evan Moore — Moore ended the season on injured reserve with a hip injury, but the injury was not regarded as serious, and he figures to continue to play an important role in the offense. Moore, a former wideout, has the speed needed to be split out wide, which can create matchup problems.
OT Tony Pashos — Pashos missed the majority of last season with an ankle injury. He's expected to be the Browns' right tackle in 2011.
DE Robaire Smith — Smith, who's slated to be an unrestricted free agent, missed 11 games with a back injury last season. Smith played end in Rob Ryan's 3-4 scheme; if re-signed, he could figure inside. Conceivably, he also could play left end, too.

Please use the buttons below to see more information on Northampton Saints and matches between Wasps and Saints over the years.
After a storming second half which took them close to a thrilling victory, Wasps went down to a last-minute try and a heartbreaking defeat.
With snow falling, both sides had early handling problems, but Northampton started the stronger.
After seven minutes spent mostly in the Wasps half, a fine run by Lee Dickson, from a lineout near halfway, took play deep into the Wasps 22, leading to a penalty near the corner. Northampton chose to kick to the corner. They won the lineout, the forwards drove for the line, but they were brought down just short. The referee ruled that the maul had been brought down, and awarded a penalty try, which Stephen Myler converted. He also sent Rhys Thomas to the sin bin.
The Wasps forwards responded positively, with a powerful drive of their own, from a lineout on halfway. It produced a penalty, a few metres in from touch, and Elliot Daly banged over a trademark long-range kick, to narrow the gap to 7-3, with 13 minutes gone.
Three minutes later, another Northampton penalty to the corner produced another catch and drive, and Lee Dickson was at the bottom of a pile of bodies to score a try right by the left corner. Myler's conversion attempt was well off target. Wasps produced a superb response, when Christian Wade won a turnover on the right, on the halfway. The ball was moved back across the field, and Billy Vunipola's long pass found Tom Varndell, 40 metres out. The winger raced away, shaking off an attempted tackle, to cross for his 12th Premiership try of the season, which Stephen Jones converted, to make the score 12-10.
Rhys Thomas then returned to the field. Within three minutes of his return, Wasps were ahead, after Stephen Jones was on target with a 30-metre penalty, in the 24th minute. A poor clearance kick by Varndell then set the alarm bells ringing, as it was gathered by Tom Mercey, inside the Wasps 22. Luckily for Wasps, the Saints attack ended when they were penalised for not releasing the ball, 10 metres out from the line.
With 8 minutes of the half left, Northampton again made effective use of their driving maul, making 25 metres before Wasps were penalised on their 22. The visitors again went for touch, and another drive yielded a further penalty, and a yellow card for Tom Palmer.
Northampton repeated the tried and tested kick to the corner, followed by a catch and drive. Wasps did well to repel the initial drive, but a series of further surges ended with Dylan Hartley going over near the right corner. The try was confirmed by the TMO. Myler landed an excellent conversion, to give his side a 19-13 lead, five minutes before the break. Stephen Jones pulled back three points, with a 40-metre penalty to make the halftime score 19-16 to the visitors.
After a frenetic opening few minutes to the second half, Northampton stole a Wasps lineout, a few metres outside their own 22. The forwards again produced an unstoppable driving maul, which made at least 40 metres, before Wasps conceded the inevitable penalty. As expected, the kick went to the corner, and the Northampton pack mounted another catch and drive. This time, the Wasps pack drove them back and infield. Northampton drove again, before releasing the ball to the backs, but the defence forced a knockon, a few metres from the line.
Before the scrum, Wasps rang the changes, with Zak Taulafo, Joe Launchbury and James Haskell replacing Tim Payne, Tom Palmer and Sam Jones. The changes had an immediate effect, as a strong scrum produced a penalty, and Wasps were able to clear to near halfway. They again lost the lineout, and Stephen Myler hoisted a high kick to the corner. Christian Wade knocked on, Northampton attacked from the scrum, and came close in the corner. They were awarded another penalty, which was sent to the corner, but Wasps won a welcome penalty.
Tom Lindsay had now replaced Rhys Thomas, and he immediately put in a storming run, to take play deep into the Northampton 22. Wasps then produced their best sustained attack of the afternoon, with a passage of play lasting nearly two minutes, and sweeping back and forth across the field inside the 22. Eventually, Northampton were penalised, in front of the posts. Jones made no mistake, to level the scores. Within a minute, Wasps were ahead, Lindsay's barnstorming c harge punched a hole in the Northampton defence. The ball came out to the left, and Elliot Daly, from 30 metres out, showed extraordinary strength and footwork, to dance through a series of tackles and stay infield, before somehow getting over in the corner. After lengthy consideration, the TMO awarded the try. Stephen Jones's conversion was well short, but Wasps now led 24-19, with 20 minutes left. They were also beginning to play with real confidence and putting the visitors on the back foot.
With 11 minutes to go, Billy Vunipola was penalised for not using his arms in a tackle, a metre inside his own half. Stephen Myler went for the posts, but his kick was short and wide.
With six minutes left, Wasps received their third yellow card, when Ashley Johnson was adjudged to have collapsed a maul, near his line. A series of penalties to the corner, and catch and drives followed, before Northampton moved the ball to the backs, and fine defence yielded a penalty, welcomed by one of the loudest cheers of the day. Wasps were then controversially penalised for offside, following a high kick downfield. Another kick to the corner set up the inevitable lineout catch and drive.
With the clock at zero, a series of thrusts ended when the visitors powered their way over by the posts, with Christian Day getting the finishing touch. Myler's conversion sentenced Wasps to a heartbreaking defeat..
Wasps are back at Adams Park next Saturday, when Saracens are the visitors, in another important Aviva Premiership match.

The winner of London Transport's £10 prize for a Billy Brown couplet asking escalator passengers to "Stand on the Right" is Mr E.F. Worley, of Boreham Wood.
His winning entry forms the last two lines of the following verse:
Here's another bright suggestion
Standing right prevents congestion
On the right it's "Stand at Ease"
On the left it's "Quick march, please"
Over 7,000 entries were received, 25 per cent of them from members of HM and Allied Forces, among them an Australian VC.

Brent Nelson head of Welding Technology at Dawson Community College is proud to announce that DCC Ag Mechanics student Jordan Larson of Miles City Montana will be traveling to Indianapolis in October to attend the 82nd National FFA Convention.
"Lead Out Loud" is the 2009 convention theme as 55,000 of today's FFA leaders from all 50 states gather in Indianapolis to celebrate. Members will engage in the National Days of Service and take part in interactive workshops, thrilling competitions and an action-packed career show.
Jordan will be honored with an American FFA Degree. The American FFA Degree is the highest honor that can be achieved as an FFA member. This final step in the FFA Degree system encourages students to grow, achieve, and establish themselves in an agricultural career. Attaining the American FFA Degree requires a solid commitment to agriculture and FFA. "Jordan was always a serious and committed FFA student determined to work through to a solution given the toughest agronomy problem" said Jim Bott, Jordan's former FFA advisor.
Jordan will also compete in the FFA Agronomy contest which he earned the right to do by winning the state agronomy contest last spring with 3 other Miles City FFA members. Those in this field often specialize in areas such as crop rotation, irrigation and drainage, plant breeding, soil classification, soil fertility, weed control, insect and pest control.
Jordan is the son of Jack and Marian Larson owners of Larson Seeds in the Miles City area. Growing up in the seed business he learned to appreciate the outdoors as well as the complexities and challenges of his families enterprise. His interest in agronomy puts him on the leading edge of today's hot button issues that include food production, creating healthier food, managing the environmental impact of agriculture, and creating energy from plants.
Jordan is an outstanding success story. His effort and dedication over the last 4 years of high school have made him a premier example of the FFA Agricultural mission to prepare students for successful careers and a lifetime of informed choices in the global agriculture, food, fiber and natural resources systems.

One week after triple bypass surgery, Notre Dame Alum Regis Philbin says he is through "the worst of it".
The 75-year-old called in to "Live With Regis and Kelly" Friday to give a health update.
Regis says he still has some pain in his heart, back, and leg and it especially hurts when he sneezes.
He is expected to be out another month, although, when he gets back, his dressing room may look a little different thanks to guest host Neil Patrick Harris.
Harris said, "Regis, your dressing room is wonderful, but I took out all this Notre Dame stuff and put in USC billboards."
Regis countered, "Uh oh! Gelman, I don't want anyone in my dressing room!"
Regis says painkillers have kept him up at night so he is been taking sleeping pills, causing him to wander the house, saying some strange things.

Bad Left Hook recaps a big Saturday of comebacks and star performances in boxing. Featured: Juan Manuel Marquez, Kevin Mitchell, Marco Huck, Brian Viloria, and more.
From this weekend, Chris Henry KO1 Hugo Garay. A nice little brawl while it lasted, though the ending was controversial. Not something I've seen much before, but Henry actually knocked Garay out from a punch while clinching. Garay stayed down, possibly because he was out, possibly because he thought it was a push, and possibly because he thought it was a rabbit punch. It really seemed to be a little of all three, and the ref easily could have ruled it not a knockdown for a number of reasons. The result created a bit of a skirmish, where Garay's corner nearly took the ref's head off after the fight. Henry is now the mandatory for the belt held by Beibut Shumenov, although it sounds like Shumenov may be required by the WBA to face Vyacheslav Uzelkov before the mandatory becomes due.
Results from around the boxing globe. Featured: Marcos Maidana, Erik Morales, Steve Molitor, Ulises Solis and more.

Last night, Gabriel Campillo beat Hugo Garay for his WBA version of the light heavyweight strap. This makes Campillo the first Spaniard to win the light heavyweight title. Campillo managed to win a very tight decision (115-114, 114-114, 114-113) in Garay's hometown. Not half bad for a late replacement. A couple weeks ago, Campillo was supposed to fight Cuban prospect Luis Garcia, but Garcia got cold feet and pulled out. Already having trained, the natural super middleweight Campillo got his first title shot when David Gogiya pulled out of his fight against Garay last week. Evidently, Garay came out strong for the first six rounds, and when he started to gas out, Campillo took over the fight with his superior boxing skill. Campillo, a southpaw, was the European Super Middleweight champ, having beaten Lolenga Mock and having a close and disputed loss to Karo Murat.

On-tap at the brewpub, served in a weizen glass.
The aroma is spot on with spicy cloves and a hint of banana. On the palate, however, this beer is a beer is too dry and the water is too hard, it even tastes a little salty. The wheat malts and yeast character is still there in the flavor, but the mouthfeel and that dryness really detract from an otherwise tasty hefe.

Light yellow body with a decent head on top. Nose is fairly standard for the style: yeast and spice, with some vague clove notes being the most dominant in the latter category.
The flavour is also fairly straight-forward: a thin-bodied but heavily carbonated wheat beer that leans heavily on the malts, but which also incorporates generous helpings of yeast induced spicy notes with some slight banana aspects. Not huge, but enjoyable.
Mouth and drinkability were both slightly above average: reasonable decent body but not remarkable, reasonably good value and easy to drink, but not spectacular.
The bottom line: Arbor's take on the Hefeweizen style is reasonably true, but doesn't do anything particularly special either. A serviceable brew.

The beer appeared a very nice hazy orange with a huge big white head that was well retained and left some nice lacing. The beer gave off a very pleasant wheat aroma. Not great, but better than some American made Hefeweizens. The taste of the beer was good wheat flavor, but it was light on the banana and cloves that a good Hefe would have. The beer had a lighter feel to it, super easy to drink and very enjoyable. Overall, a quality brew and one that I hope to enjoy again.

What a spicy beer! I don't know if I've had one as spicy as this. Take an orange slice and drop it in a barrel of spices - this is it. As others have noted, this is a fairly cloudy brew. Not quite as drinkable as some other wheat beers like Oberon, but for those who enjoy a spicy and slightly more bitter wheat beer this is worth a try.

I made a vigorous pour to achieve very little head. It is golden in color. It has a cider smell to it. It doesn't have much taste up front, but it finishes sour. It is watery. I thought I may have gotten a bad batch, but other reviewers have had similar conclusions. I may have to try this one fresh from the tap next time I'm in Ann Arbor to give it a second chance.

Poured fast down the middle, but very little head.
Classic smell of bannana and cloves.
Very light tasting. Thin.
Tastes and smells like they used the proper fermentation temperature and yeast...but did not use the proper grains to achieve this style of beer.

Poured from the bottle into a standard pint glass.
Appearance: Pours a cloudy amber color with just a little off white head that goes away.
Smell: Standard hefe spices. There is some banana and clove along with some citrus notes.
Taste: This beer is fine until you start to drink it. It tastes like a normal hefe right off the bat, but those good flavors of fruit and spice fade to watery and then a bit sour. Light malt, but the off taste takes over. The finish is bitter and a bit sour.
Mouthfeel: Medium body with tingly carbonation and a dry finish.
Overall: Not a very good beer. Definitely won't have another.

Bought at Big Ten in East Lansing and swilled straight from the bottle.
Well, attempted to swill. Once the cap's off, it's obvious there's trouble, as a foul, bitter, college slumming-beer stench hits me. As bad as that is the taste might be worst: Acrid, rotten, fermented soggy bread. Remember when as a kid you first stole a sip of your dad's beer and wondered why the f*ck anyone would drink something that vile? This is the impression I have of Bavarian Bliss. I run to the sink because I can't wait to get this stuff down the drain.
This isn't the best rated beer on the site, but nothing to suggest THIS, so something must have gone wrong with the bottle. Not to mention, Arbor is a small brewery, no doubt working hard to make good beer, and I'm out here telling the world they made something worse than MGD? So while I feel guilty about the review, I stand by it, and hope I just got a bad, bad bottle.

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a 20oz imperial pint.
A: Pours an appropriately cloudy, golden, orange-y brown colors with the tiniest hint of head. Mostly just a thick and bubbly ring. Lots of suspended tendrils of yeasty goodness floating through the glass. No lace to speak of.
S: Nice aromas of tangy citrus, toasted bread, cardamom/clove, nutmeg, and a little peek of banana.
T: Tart lemon, toasted malt, and spice right off the bat. After it warms a bit hints of orange/grapefruit, banana, and spicy herbal hops make their appearance.
M: Dry maltiness, and tangy citrus frutiness make for a refreshing palate cleanser.
D: Summer and hefeweizens go hand in hand. This one is pretty good and quite refreshing. I expected more clove/banana/bubble gum flavors but instead was surprised by the refreshingly bracing lemon/citrus flavors.

Got this one in an Arbor taster from Holiday Market. Probably my favorite beer out of the bunch, although the Sacred Cow IPA was very good as well. Basically this one hits most of the hefe necessities right on: nice light yellow color with a solid finger of white head, nose of wheat and spices, flavor of lots of citrus, light bananas, and wheat. Good body and solid carbonation. Pours Maybe not the best hefe weizen ever, but definitely a good contribution by an American brewer.

A 12 oz bottle poured into one of my weizen glasses. This beer pours a clear medium golden color. Much clearer than I am used to beers of this style being. The nice white head is about an inch thick when first poured and settles to a decent foam layer about 1/4 inch thick and ten eventually to a nice medium size ring lining the inside of the glass. Little lace though. Aromas are a bit of citrus, toasted bread, and banana clove. Has a good citrusy, slightly toasted bready malt flavor along with banana clove spice. Rounded out with a touch of hop bitterness on the back end of the tongue. Very tasty. Has a slightly crisp, but malty smooth medium bodied mouthfeel with light to moderate carbonation. A pretty decent beer overall and flavor wise pretty much spot on for this style, but I feel it could have benefited from a bit more carbonation.

Appearance: an orangy yellow. quite hazy. small foamy head that fades slowly
Smell: bananas are very strong and just about dominate the beer. some slight spiciness to it.
Taste: again the bananas are strong but on the backside there are some clove and spice flavors
Mouthfeel: good and lighter
Overall: a middle of the road hefeweizen. not great but not bad. it has some good flavors but it is neither complex nor unique.

Enjoyed on tap at the Arbor Brew Pub.
This one poured a medium and cloudy yellow color with a small sized white head. Aromas of cloves, wheat, spicy, and lemons. Tastes of bananas, wheat, and lemons. Tastes a tad bit of a let down vs. the aromas.
Notes from 05/06/06.

This is an exeptional American Hefeweizen! Bavarian bliss indeed!
Served in proper glassware and at acceptable temperature, I was at least asked whether I took a lemon or not (passed on that, thank you very much). Pours a hazy bright gold in color with a fizzy white head that left a decent crown throughout. Nose is extremely fresh, hints of banana and that trademark wheat smell. Taste is very well balanced and extremely refreshing, hints of cloves and spice, banana as well of course. Very wheaty and well crafted, this is certainly one to look for in the warmer months!

A new business in our area is using technology to improve the accuracy of diagnosing Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder.
A recent study shows the number of kids with ADHD is increasing with a jump of nearly 25% in the last decade.
After 18 years of being a licensed school psychologist in Roanoke, Andrea Foutz says she can now do her job more accurately.
"It's much quicker and more efficient and more valuable," psychologist Andrea Foutz says.
Foutz is talking about 'Defini-Point.' A new online-tool to better assess children or adults for ADHD.
"It sends out reminders and I know exactly when they completed the evaluations," Foutz says. so "It's just a few clicks and I have the results."
For a child, parent, and teachers to all fill out the test by hand, the diagnosis usually takes 3 to 4 weeks. If they fill it out with 'Defini-Point' online, it usually takes 3 to 4 days.
"The technology is fairly sophisticated, but at the end of the day users need something its easy simple and convenient for and assessment," CEO and Founder of Attention Point, Sam English says.
Sam English, a Roanoke entrepreneur is behind the kick-start business 'Attention Point,' which produces 'Defini-Point' the technology making it easier for psychologists across the state to do their job by giving them access to testing online.
The test can also be easily sent to parents or teachers something English says helps make the diagnosis more accurate.
"When we take information from multiple parents and teachers the ability for clinicians to more accurately predict ADHD improves," English says.
English plans to take Defini-Point nationwide by the end of the summer and hopes to make a big difference when it comes to accurate treat our children.

Dr Tazeen Jafar, Dr Juanita Hatcher, Dr Mehtab Karim, Dr Nish Chaturvedi,Dr Franklin WhiteFunded by: Wellcome Trust, UK Amount: US $500,000 Duration: 2003-2006
The study is aimed to assess cost-effective strategies for control of hypertension in Pakistan. The three-year investigator-initiated intervention project will use cluster randomisation and factorial design to assess the effect of population-based health education by community health workers on blood pressure levels of population aged five years or over (n=20,000), and cost effective management of blood pressure administered by intensively trained local general practitioners on adults.
Dr Tazeen Jafar (PI) (Medicine and CHS), Dr Juanita Hatcher (Co-I) Funding Agency: Wellcome Trust, UK Amount: US $300,000
The role of the microcirculation is increasingly being recognised in the etiopathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. Delays in this recognition are in part due to the difficulty of studying the microcirculation non-invasively, in large numbers of individuals. Retinal vessels provide an easily accessible "window" to the microcirculation. Abnormalities of the retinal vasculature have been shown to be associated with cardiovascular risk factors and all cause mortality. Non-invasive assessment of the retinal circulation presents a valuable opportunity to study the structure and function of the microvasculature.
Off-springs of patients with hypertension are more likely to have elevated blood pressure, and end organ damage has been shown to manifest during childhood. People of South Asian descent as compared to Caucasians have been shown to be more susceptible to metabolic syndromes predisposing to CVD, and also to end organ damage. The prevalence of hypertension has shown to be very high in Pakistan with one in three persons aged 40 years or over suffering from this disease. Development of non-invasive screening methods for detecting early signs of end organ damage beginning in childhood is of paramount importance for prevention of these dangerous diseases, and for understanding their etiopathogenesis.
This investigator-initiated study being launched by Aga Khan University's (AKU) Clinical Epidemiology Unit (CEU) on 2,400 subjects in 12 low income communities in Karachi is primarily designed to compare geometry of retinal microvasculature of 1) hypertensive vs normotensive adults, 2) children aged 10 to 14 years of hypertensive parent (test group) versus normotensive parent (control group), and, 3) to assess the impact of blood pressure lowering on these changes over 2 years. Retinal photographs would be taken and graded by research team members specially trained in standardised technique at Imperial College London, UK. Primary outcome would be abnormal retinal geometry defined as the composite outcome of a) abnormal arteriolar length: diameter ratios (a measure of relative arteriolar narrowing), b) narrowed branching angles (an indicator of arteriolar rarefaction), or c) disturbed junction exponents (a marker of endothelial dysfunction).

Total amount: US $540,000.00 over three years (January 1, 2007 - December 31, 2009)
The Wellcome Trust, UK, has awarded US $540,000 for an investigator-initiated study on "Molecular Genetics in Hypertension, Type 2 Diabetes and Coronary Heart Disease in Pakistan" to Drs Tazeen H Jafar (CHS and Medicine) and Philippe Frossard (BBS) at AKU in collaboration with researchers from University of Exeter and Imperial College London.
The aim of this project is to establish a large study of Pakistan subjects to identify the important genetic factors for hypertension, type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease.
In addition to studying several polymorphisms, the study would also contribute to capacity building and transfer of technology via training of young researchers from AKU in leading-edge laboratory techniques in the UK (e.g. robotic techniques for DNA analyses), and in genetic epidemiology.
The current award is an excellent example of multidisciplinary research between the Departments of CHS and Biological & Biomedical Sciences, and adds a new dimension to the project, and reflects innovative approaches of collaborative thinking, which would contribute to tackling the enigma of chronic diseases in the Pakistani population.
Principal investigator: Dr Tazeen H. Jafar (Medicine/CHS) Co-Investigator: Juanita Hatcher Funding Agency: NIH Forgarty Grant Amount: US $110,000 Duration: Three years (2007-2010)
The Indo-Asian developing countries are facing an epidemic of chronic diseases including hypertension, diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Diagnosis of early CKD is essential for institution of effective and timely prevention of its complications; costly late stage treatment for end stage renal disease is currently an unfeasible option in these populations. GFR estimates of kidney function provide a common reference standard for all people and are therefore readily applicable by physicians and understood by patients. However, the existing GFR equations yield widely discrepant results in the Indo Asian population, and none of the currently available estimating equations have been validated in this population.
The study would be performed on 650 adult subjects from the general population in Karachi. A new GFR equation specific to a Pakistani population would be developed and validated using the gold standard of measured insulin GFR. The performance of the new equation will be compared to the existing ones developed in other populations.
The project is likely to contribute significantly to moving the field of kidney disease forward, and its results are likely to have far reaching implications for understanding of CKD and, ultimately, its prevention in Indo-Pakistani populations worldwide.

INDIANAPOLIS — Marsh Supermarket officials announced today that they will close seven stores in Indiana -- including two in Muncie -- and one in Ohio by the end of January.
The Muncie stores to close are at 3910 W. West Bethel Ave. and 3705 S. Madison St. The other stories slated for closure include two in Indianapolis (2802 Lafayette Road and 5249 Thompson Road), one in Franklin, one in Lebanon, one in Speedway and one in Franklin, Ohio.
Officials of the Fishers-based company attributed the closings to a shrinking customer base and, in some cases, cited expiring leases. They said the closures are part of an overarching plan to bring all stores under the Marsh brand and to renovate existing stores.
Marsh, owned by Florida-based Sun Capital, operates 62 Marsh Supermarkets and three O'Malia's Food Markets in Indiana and Ohio. Marsh also owns 25 MainStreet Markets in Ohio.

Elisabeth Moss attended the 2014 Golden Globe Awards on Sunday (January 12) in Beverly Hills, California.
A big night for Elisabeth, as she was nominated for 'Top of the Lake' the actress walked the red carpet in a runway look from J. Mendel Pre-Fall 2014.
Elisabeth joined the likes of other actresses like Olivia Wilde and opted for a beaded gown. The two-toned burgundy and black design was a bit 1920's-inspired but made modern with a structured silhouette with capped sleeves.
The nominee added a dose of gold via a thin cuff, ring, and geometric earrings by Jennifer Meyer.
Despite the interesting and certainly intricate detail of the beading, this gown did not win me over. What's your take?
