In his first public comments since his arrest in August 2012, Brandon Brown maintained his innocence in the June 2012 murder of Iowa City man Donelle Lindsey.
�I�m sorry for your loss,� said Brown, turned to face Lindsey�s family. �I�m sorry for that, but I didn�t kill him.�
The sentence for first-degree is life in prison. Brown also was ordered to pay $150,000 in victim restitution and $8,210 to the crime-victim-assistance program.
During the lengthy statement, made Monday at the Johnson County Courthouse during Brown�s sentencing for first-degree murder, Brown claimed that there was no evidence to convict him and that he was unable to get a fair trial from a predominantly white jury.
Brown was found guilty of murdering Lindsey in November.
�I don�t feel like I got a fair conviction or a fair trial,� Brown said.
Brown was accused of killing Lindsey on June 21, 2012, in Iowa City. Testimony showed Lindsey had spent the day with his friend, DiMarco Harris, at an apartment complex on Petsel Place on Iowa City's west side. Brown had spent the afternoon with his friend, Byron Fisher.
The four men converged sometime around 11:26 p.m. that day. Harris� and Fisher�s testimony offered different accounts of what came next, but both men agreed that Brown shot Lindsey several times at close range. A medical examiner testified Lindsey was shot five times, with two of the bullets piercing Lindsey�s heart, liver and kidney.
A third state witness, Nicole Blosser, testified she drove Brown to Chicago the night of the shooting and heard Brown confess to shooting Lindsey.
Brown called into question the veracity of those witnesses, as did his attorneys, who requested a new trial based on a lack of evidence. Before the sentencing began, Judge Marsha Bergan denied that request, stating the basic elements of the witnesses' testimony essentially were in agreement that Brown killed Lindsey.
While Brown professed his innocence on several occasions, it was clear Lindsey�s family had no doubt in their minds about his guilt. Each time Brown claimed he didn�t kill Lindsey, a family member in the back of the courtroom quietly responded, �Yes, you did.�
Lindsey�s mother and sister � Marvella Lindsey and Teonna Eason � both made victim-impact statements.
�I don�t feel sorry for Brandon,� Marvella Lindsey said. �I feel sorry for his mother. I feel sorry for what he has taken from each of us as a parent.�
Lindsey said her son was loved and told Brown the two men might have been friends had Brown not killed him. Lindsey also lamented that her son didn�t live long enough to give her any grandchildren.
The mother told Brown that she moved her son to Iowa City when he was eight years old to escape the violence of Chicago. She said she was shocked when she heard he was gunned down in Iowa City.
�I brought my son here to not get killed,� she said. �When I found my son was dead, I couldn�t believe it, not here in Iowa City.�
Added Lindsey, �He took not only his life, but he took some of mine too � . I�m not going to forgive him.�
Eason said her brother�s murder also affected her eight-year-old son. Eason said Lindsey took her and her son in and looked after them. She�s now left worrying how Lindsey�s murder will affect her son.
�We all miss my brother very much, very much,� she said.
Brown has 30 days to appeal the conviction, which he said he will do.�I didn�t kill this man,� he said. �I�m going to have to fight to the Supreme Court to get my freedom back.�

Lovely, dark, intense, experimental sounds from Chris Mapp! his latest E.P Listen/purchase: doomprov 3 by Chris Mapp
Looking forward to my gig at a great songwriters night in Brisbane tonight, click the link to find out all about The Round!
Good music, is good music right? Once your band or project comes to an end, it doesn't matter how many people were at your gigs. It doesn't matter how many online followers you had or if you even released a record. If the memory of great music you played or heard is enough you will always have that. Music can live on. If you actually did record something, it will be there to listen to when you are long gone, waiting to be discovered by someone, somewhere in the world. Better make it good, right?
This is the short story of a rock band, which only lasted 6 months. In that time the three of us wrote and rehearsed ferociously with every last ounce of sweat, exuberance and talent we had. Like a great wave rising up, we surfed it, until it landed on our heads.
It was not to be. We separated as quickly as we collided together but what happened in the middle was really what music is all about, a wonderfully intense artistic collaboration of mind, heart and spirit. We had a lot of fun. I learnt a lot and I lost a lot. We have a few demos, and after listening to them again, it is time to share and let more people listen to a moment in time that produced some great music and some amazing memories.
As far as I know, only a small bunch of people in the U.K heard this rock band in 2007, we did about 5 gigs. I would say we were probably the greatest rock band that the world never heard or saw!
If a tree falls in the Forest, does it make a sound? It does, and it's the sound of a wild bunch of marauding Iceni warriors charging towards you, Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Bodecca.
Turn it up and rock out!
I thought I would start writing down my thoughts about music in the same way I have been writing about running. A good place to start for me is to say a few words about the instrument that got me started in the word of music, the trumpet.
I am a trumpeter, since the age of 9, after hearing my grandad Ron's jazz records. When I heard big bands and New Orleans music, the trumpets were loud and proud and so triumphant they made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. When I heard a muted trumpet playing a ballad, it filled me with a warm melancholy that was emotional and mysterious to my young ears. I started to practice. First, my grandad showed me the ropes on an old cornet and then as soon as I can remember I started to improvise. My ears guided me through my improvising and I was able to solo long before understanding what I was doing musically.
The trumpet is a difficult instrument to master, It requires a physical and disciplined approach, a weight lifters mentality when exercising to increase range and master technique. A lead trumpeter in a big band for instance, must have great chops*. They need a combination of breath, muscle and fine technique to play a full range of notes with a controlled tone and perfect tuning. Learning any instrument requires patience and a keen interest in everything involved. I, however, was not a technician, I wasn't interested in looking after my trumpet, wasn't into talking about trumpets with other trumpeters. Ask me what mouthpiece I used, how big was my bell? No idea! I just wanted to play and improvise.
Although in awe of trumpet gymnastics, when younger, I did not aspire to this way of playing. I heard players like Miles Davis with his warm, melodic, almost nonchalant sound and I wanted to play like that. At that time, that was the way I wanted to express myself with the trumpet and it sounded effortless. However, many great musicians are like swans. They look majestic above the water, but underneath, where you can't see, they are paddling like mad.
At points when learning anything, you hit a plateau, you realise you are going to have to put some effort in to get better and this tests your resolve. It happens at any age, any ability. Artists must keep learning and innovating, they must rise above to discover themselves further. When younger, I often lacked the discipline to keep progressing on the trumpet. I threw my energy into developing skills in other areas; I discovered singing and playing other instruments, composing and recording, all of which of course make me who I am today.
In the last few years, and for the first time in my life really, I have started to enjoy the act of studying my trumpet further, and studying jazz harmony. I love performing, but there are things you can only learn through sitting down and reading or working them out yourself and fortunately I find pleasure in it now, I feel proud about my small achievements and progressions. Perhaps the discipline I have learnt training for marathons has somehow translated over to the trumpet, or maybe I am just a bit wiser now and ready to learn again. I will endeavour to study and learn more throughout my life, to keep progressing with this challenging instrument I have found myself attached to.
One final note, I Brasso'd and polished my trumpet (Stomvi mambo) for the first time ever, what a great feeling to have it nice and shiny. It has survived a decade of gigs, travelling with me around the world. It has been dropped; dented, forgotten in numerous places, mysteriously disappeared and reappeared, left on a train, left off a train, jumped on mistakenly by an exuberant band member, it has sprung a leak live on stage which fired spit in my eye as I was playing (imagine a clowns flower), its been patched up, fixed three times and most recently, dropped out of a locker after a long haul flight onto a ladies head (A whole jumbo jet tutted at me). Poor thing, how did it end up with me!
*Chops are not something for the BBQ. To a musician, it means skill or excellence in their particular field. More specifically to a trumpeter, chops are also another word for embouchure*.
*Embouchure - The embouchure is the use of facial muscles and the shaping of the lips to the mouthpiece of woodwind instruments or the mouthpiece of the brass instruments, Embouchure is not a way of cooking chops.
At Brisbane Jazz Club, March 2014. I am singing and playing a great tune after I heard the Nat King Cole version.
"Boulevard of Broken Dreams" is a 1933 hit song by Al Dubin (lyrics) and Harry Warren (music), set in Paris.
The song appeared in the 1934 film Moulin Rouge and was sung in the film by Constance Bennett. I thought I would sing it and I tried it out in the video at the jazz singers jam night. I hope you enjoy it folks, this was a great trio to play with. John Reeves on piano, Peter Walters on Bass and Joe Marchisella.

Hi folks! Here is a link to a quick sample of our album that we are finishing at the moment. We will be releasing it in a month and hopefully selling it at our gigs in November. Here is a list of where you can catch us next month:
Great recording session in The Saints, Suffolk last Friday with Paul Fitzgerald who also took these pics.

Little is known about the Wombat of Doom beyond it's clumsiness, voracious appetite, and legendary cudliness. Many an opponent has fallen against the Wombat by failing to grasp just exactly how dangerous it truly was. It is necessary to drive him away however as he can devastate croplands if left alone. He doesn't mean harm, but his apparent indestructability rivals that of the Tarrasque (well almost). Some part of it is that opponents staring into his huge blank eyes just can't bring themselves to really hurt him.
Tunnel Fighting (Ex): The Wombat's penalties for fighting in restricted spaces (see Underdark page 112) are lowered by an additional -2.
Trample (Ex): DC 54 Reflex Save, Save DC is Str based.
Squish (Ex): The Wombat of Doom is notoriously fumbly. Anytime an opponent requires it to make a Reflex Save it falls over. If the opponent is within melee the Wombat falls on him. If he is at range everything on adjacent squares to 1 side of the Wombat (roll 1d6, even it falls left, odd it falls right). Victims the Wombat falls on take 10d6+30 damage.
Armored Butt (Ex): Wombats have thick smooth hide on their behinds to prevent predators from pulling them from burrows. The Wombat of Doom's DR increases to 30/Epic against attacks from the rear.
Speed Burst (Ex): If scared, or it wishes to leave, once per hour the Wombat may move up to ten times it's base Land Speed for 1 full round as long as it takes the Run action.
Deceptively Cute (Ex): The Wombat is unusually dumb and cuddly looking. If he fails an Intimidate Check against an opponent that opponent gains a -2 Penalty to AC until he takes damage from an attack the Wombat makes.
Combat: The Wombat isn't a predator and doesn't much initiate Combat unless scared or surprised. He is notoriously stubborn though and will not give up a good food patch once he has found it.

It has been HOT. HOT, HOT in here today and this week! Our air had been working on and off and the people finally came to fix it today. In order for it to get fixed, it had to off all day though…ugh! So after letting the temp. inside the house get to 88* we got to turn the air back on and it's currently a cool 85 in here now.
Despite the hot weather, I had a fun day! I ran about 5 miles with Anna this morning. Then took a much needed shower. Shortly after that Hallie arrived for lunch with Bethany and I. We went to Northstar where I got my favorite veggie burger(black bean, brown rice and beets!) After lunch the air people came. Then Anna and I ran errands, dry cleaners and grocery store until it was dinner time. It's amazing how fast the day goes!
Anyways, I was not even thinking about cooking anything on the stove or oven tonight so the grill was needed. Brady grilled some chicken I marinated for him and I had a Mexi-Veggie Feast!
My plate included:
It was so amazing and refreshing!
Brady opted for the Chicken Tacos. He piled up the same ingredients in a soft taco shell and added chicken and cheese. His plate was clean, so I am going to assume he liked it!
Hopefully it will be down to 80 or at least 82 in here by the time we go to sleep! Poor Little A.

|Giants-Packers draws highest conference championship rating since '97
|Written by Admin
|Tuesday, 22 January 2008 14:35
The NFC title game drew a 29.0 national rating and 43 share on Fox. The New York Giants' 23-20 overtime win over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night attracted the highest rating for a conference championship since Green Bay-Carolina earned a 30.1/58 in 1997.
The undefeated New England Patriots' 21-12 win over the heavy underdog San Diego Chargers drew a 25.7/46 on CBS. That was up 2 percent from the early game last year, the Chicago-New Orleans NFC championship that attracted a 25.1/45.
Combined, the two games averaged 49.7 million viewers, the most for a conference championship weekend in 13 years. The Chargers-Steelers and Cowboys-49ers matchups averaged 49.9 million viewers in 1995.
The rating is the percentage watching a program among homes with televisions, and the share is the percentage tuned into the broadcast among those households with TVs on at the time.

Infiniti's new compact is heading to production in 2014, but it appears that it might not be the only small model that the luxury Japanese automaker is working on.
Get the Flash Player to see this player.
Infiniti's new Etherea concept, unveiled at the Geneva Auto Show, takes the coupe-styled sedan trend and meshes it with the added functionality of a crossover. As this wasn't enough, Nissan's luxury brand added plenty of wild styling cues and even bills it as a hybrid.
Designed to attract younger luxury buyers, the Etherea is powered by a 2.5-liter V6 engine, mated to a supercharger and an electric motor. Making 245-hp, it uses the same twin-clutch setup as found in the Infiniti M Hybrid.
Infiniti tout the Etherea's functionality, although there's no mention of cargo room – an area where Infiniti SUVs and crossovers have always been lacking in.
Taking Infiniti's already bold design language a step across the line, it's not what we'd call 'a looker', however, knowing Infiniti its sure to make up for 'out-there' styling with driving dynamics that are hard to resist.

3Ellen Page Comes Out: "I'm Tired Of Lying By Omission"
Ellen Page did it, you guys: she came out. And to a roomful of people while giving a very stirring speech. She spoke at the Human Rights Campaign "Time To Thrive" conference for LGBTQ youth.
Here's what she said:
I am here today because I am gay. (Applause, standing ovation.) And because maybe I can make a difference. To help others have a easier and more hopeful time. Regardless for me I feel a personal obligation and a social responsibility. I also do it selfishly, because I'm tired of hiding, and I'm tired of lying by omission. (Applause.)
I recommend watching the entire thing, it's pretty good.
February 15, 2014 at 12:00 pm by Catherine St. Ives
0For Your Viewing Pleasure: 'The East' Trailer
I am not being sarcastic – if you are even just a little bit like me, I am sure that you will take a certain twisted kind of pleasure in watching Ellen Page in a thriller about guerrilla activists having their revenge on the all-powerful, evil corporate clique that poisons the environment and the minds of the people. Insert Occupy Wall Street jokes here.
I am so excited about seeing this, I almost wish it was real life.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.


text: just moving this thought from the post game thread because i think it deserves its own thought. For those who missed, Bingham pretty much threw down the gauntlet. He either wants to start or wants out. all season i thought we were just gonna ease in to Bingham starting this next season. But then i see Busch getting all sorts of horizontal on a Beckham freekick from 20 yards out like our final match. He did it all season. Busch is still one of the top goalkeepers in the league. Busch is an absolute boss in the box, you never see confusion from defenders on account of him. In light of this season Im officially in the extend Busch for 4 camp, give him a solid contract. Hes shown no signs of letting up. Besides......you KNOW in 3 years maximum we are going to homegrown MacLintosh, who is an absolute boss from our academy. And funny enough we have ANOTHER youth goalkeeper getting playing time with the U-17s after MacLintosh. My personal opinion.......but maybe we should look at trading bingham. Perhaps Bingham for Feilhaber + allocation to take that hefty contract off their hands? They are not not nooottt happy with Shuttlesworth and are looking for a number 1. i think we should oblige.

Once Stoughton school officials gets the OK for a new high school from the Massachusetts School Building Authority this morning in Boston, they will get down to the business of moving the project forward.
Tuesday, though, was a day for celebrating getting on the agenda for a new high school. State Sen. Brian Joyce, State Reps. Louis Kafka and Bill Galvin attended the school committee meeting to announce the next steps in the process. They were also thanked by the school committee for their help in getting the project in front of the Massachusetts School Building Authority.
"This is a big, big deal, 10s and 10s of millions of dollars to the town of Stoughton," said Sen. Brian Joyce,
He pointed out the positive affects of having new or rebuilt schools have helped out other towns in his district, including the building of new schools in his hometown of Milton. Joyce said Milton was on the verge of losing its accreditation and young families were deciding to relocate elsewhere.
"We ended up with taxpayer support and got all new schools," said Joyce. "There was a dramatic change in the face of the town. We saw the same thing happen in Sharon and Easton."
Joyce pointed out the value of homes will go up with a new school and that the town will save money on maintenance of the buildings.
After today's meeting, the school committee will be appointing a school building committee and taking several steps to get the project moving towards building a new high school.
The first step will be form a committee where will include town manager Michael Hartman, Stoughton High principal Juliette Miller, school committee chairman Joyce Husseini, building director Joel Harding, some familiar with the school facility, individuals involved in architecture, construction and electricial work.
"Stoughton is at first base," said Joyce." There is a lot of work to be done on your end."
Working with the school building authority, the town will have 270 days to get project ready to go.
"This is totally enough time," said Stoughton school superintendent Marguerite Rizzi. "They (the building authority) have it down to a science.
'It helps that they have been through it several times."
The first step will be form a committee where will include town manager Michael Hartman, Stoughton High principal Juliette Miller, school committee chairman Joyce Husseini, Joel Harding, the director of maintenance and operations, some familiar with the school facility, individuals involved in architecture, construction and electrical work.
School committee member Deborah Sovinee has been chairing the feasibility study committee. They will be meeting one more time before dissolving in favor of the new committee.
Joyce said he was confident that Stoughton would be able to see the project to the future, citing the commitment and support the town has already received from the town meeting vote and all the letters that were sent to elected officials.
'The school building committee is a very serious board," said Joyce. "You have bring the project in on time and on budget. It is a shared effort. I'm confident it can be done."

Chesapeake Beach Oyster Cultivation Society (CBOCS)
Chesapeake Beach Oyster Cultivation Society
All CBOCS members and interested friends are needed for the annual oyster moving events. August 23, 12 Noon - 2:00 PM is the unloading and counting of the spat which have been housed under the trail for the past year. This is at Abners Boat yard and many people are required to unload cages, count spat, clean cages, load oyster tubs and take them to the reef in the Bay.
Come and enjoy this fun and rewarding activity.
September 5, 10 AM we will be receiving 150 bags of oyster spat from DNR. This is at Marina West and we need 6 people to help temporarily house the oysters in the water.
September 6, 10 AM - 12 Noon we will be loading oysters in to the Rotating and MGO cages. This is at Marina West. This requires a lot of people to move cages, load oysters, count spat and take the cages up the creek. A couple of boats are necessary. Members housing oysters in MGO cages should pick them up at this time.
This is your special invitation to participate in the OYSTER BALL (molding that is) PARTIES. At these exciting events you will learn how to do THE OYSTER (a new exercise routine soon to sweep the nation).
Parties are being held TUESDAYS and [FRIDAYS] for the next 7 weeks at 9 AM in the spacious pavilion next to the Chesapeake Village water tower. During each party you will get the opportunity to construct a reef ball mold, mix the special reef ball concrete, pour the concrete in the reef ball and decorate its top. In addition you get to autograph your own special reef ball, which will be deployed on the Old Rock Reef in late August.
Parties are free and fun for all ages. This is a great activity for parents and teens to work together. Each party needs 6 people who come with old clothes, shoes and gloves. Ice water is provided.
In order to allow sufficient time for the reef ball concrete to harden we are changing the molding dates to Tuesday and Friday starting July 18. New dates are July 22, 25, 29, August 1, 5, 8, 12, 15 19. Location is the Chesapeake Village Water tower and the time is 9 AM each day.

2014 CBOCS Education Project - May 10 Meeting. Educating future generations about the value of oysters and their contributions to the environment has been a goal of CBOCS for the past 3 years. Various CBOCS committee members have participated in field trips, school and civic events and published the "Treasures of Fishing Creek" activity book. The initial publication of 1000 copies has been completely distributed. A revised and expanded version has just been received from the printers. All 1500 copies will be ready for the summer and fall field trips by school students, youth, church and civic groups and individuals.
To continue our educational activities in 2014 we are planning to prepare a complementary smart board / smart notebook program on the "Treasures of a Tidal Creek". This is interactive and computer based preliminary education for those taking field trips or just interested in tidal streams and marshes.
In order to complete this program by fall we are looking for volunteers to help create it. Needed are writers, photographers, video producers, editors and advisors. The ultimate product is a CD, instructor notebook and flash cards.
Please join us at the Chesapeake Beach Town Hall Council Chamber on May 10 at 9 AM for 1.5 hours. At that time Mary Butz (5th grade science teacher at Beach Elementary School) will discuss the use of smart board / smart notebooks and their value in education. We will also flush out the content and ask for you to help in any way possible.
See you on Saturday. John Bacon: Chair, CBOCS Steering Committee
April 8, 2014 -- Special Announcement and Contest Results: Two ospreys were seen on the platform in Fishing Creek at 8:36 AM on April 7, 2014 by Bob Munro.

In 2011, the Town of Chesapeake Beach partnered with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources' Marylanders Grow Oysters (MGO) program to provide a fun and collaborative opportunity for the citizens and businesses of Chesapeake Beach to help improve local water quality and their knowledge of the Bay ecosystem, while assisting with national, state and private efforts to restore the Chesapeake Bay through oyster cultivation and oyster reef restoration.
Following proven models developed by the Southern Maryland Oyster Cultivation Society (SMOCS), MGO and the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, the Chesapeake Beach Oyster Cultivation Society (CBOCS) relies on citizen volunteers to grow oysters in cages from their piers and the town's Railway Trail Boardwalk along Fishing Creek. The cages protect the vulnerable baby oysters (spat) from larger predators until their shells have grown thick enough to keep them safe. After growing for 9-10 months in the cages, the yearling oysters are released, or planted, on local reefs in designated oyster sanctuaries where they will continue to grow, reproduce and help sustain wild oyster populations and help return balance to the Bay's ecosystem.
Why are oysters (Crassostrea virginica) important?
Oysters clean the water through filter feeding. A single adult oyster can filter 50 gallons of water per day removing phytoplankton, pollutants and microorganisms from the water. This process reduces the likelihood of anoxic (oxygen depleted) zones in the Bay and results in greater water clarity, allowing light to reach important underwater plants.
A Buoyant Oyster Cultivation System cage (BOCS). For a hands on view, stop by Town Hall to see one on display in the lobby...
Oysters provide food and shelter for hundreds of species. Like a coral reef, an oyster reef provides a complex three-dimensional habitat that hundreds of estuarine species use, directly or indirectly, for food and shelter. For example, gobies and skilletfish use oyster reefs as their primary habitat, while blue crabs and striped bass visit oyster reefs to breed, find food and/or hide from predators.
Oysters are good for the economy. Until recent decades, oysters supported a thriving shellfish industry in the Bay region. Steps being taken today to reduce water pollution, manage harvests, combat disease, restore wild populations, and encourage oyster aquaculture hold promise for an oyster renaissance.
Oyster reefs attract some of the highest densities of fish of any type of habitat in the Bay, helping to sustain vibrant recreational fisheries.
How it is done: Spat (baby oysters) and cages, delivered in late August or
A DNR Oyster cage
September, are placed under Fishing Creek boardwalk, or under participant's private piers. After growing for 9-10 months the yearling oysters are ready to be planted on local oyster reefs by CBOCS participants, and then the cycle begins anew.
Time Commitment: Approximately two half-days during summer, by all CBOCS participants, to: 1) help refill oyster gardens with new spat on shell, and 2) remove yearling oysters from cages and plant them on local reefs. We'll also need help in early spring and late fall to help weatherize the BOCSes under the boardwalk. There are other opportunities to help out as well throughout the year by serving on a CBOCS committee (See Committees link above.).
General Schedule of Activities
Yearling oysters planted on local oyster reefs.
Spat on shell delivered. Oyster cages refilled and deployed to boardwalk and private piers.
BOCSes winterized
BOCSes de-winterized
Who can participate? CBOCS is a volunteer organization sponsored by the Town of Chesapeake Beach. Everyone is welcome to participate, especially the residents, students and businesses of Chesapeake Beach.
How can you help? Register to participate! Individuals, families, businesses and organizations can offer their time and/or agree to sponsor a BOCS to grow oysters. You can grow oysters from your pier, using a self-cleaning Bouyant Oyster Cultivation System (BOCS) or a Marylanders Grow Oysters (MGO) cage, and help plant them in local oyster reefs. Don't have a pier or water access? That's okay. The town will provide growing space below the Railway Trail boardwalk in Fishing Creek.
Types of Oyster Cages -- There are two types of cages that are used by CBOCS participants to grow oysters. They are:
Buoyant Oyster Cultivation System (BOCS)
Only BOCS may be used along Fishing Creek boardwalk.
May be used along private piers as well.
Not suitable for open Bay piers due to wave action.
Cost: $500, plus $30 tax. The $500 is eligible for full tax credit on Maryland taxes. After the tax credit the real cost to you is $30. MD tax credit form

Local CBOCS Sponsors -- The following local businesses, schools and associations have generously sponsored the purchase of Buoyant Oyster Cultivation Devices (BOCSes) for use in the program:
Beach Elementary School
Celebrate! LLC
Richfield Station Homeowners Association
Rod-N-Reel Restaurant
The Bay Business Group
Chesapeake Beach Garden Club
Chesapeake Station Homeowners Association
In addition, CBOCS secured a grant from the Chesapeake Bay Trust for the purchase of four BOCSes.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are spat? Spat is a life stage of the oyster during which they transition from mobile larva to "fixed" organisms attached to hard surfaces where they continue to grow into mature oysters.
Where are the spat grown? The spat are grown in cages for 9-10 months from your pier, or below the Railroad Trail boardwalk in Fishing Creek if you do not have a pier.
Where are yearling oysters released? The yearling oysters will be released in designated oyster sanctuaries under the guidance of the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR). A suitable planting site has already been identified in the Bay just offshore from Chesapeake Beach; the location is known as Old Rock. CBOCS is also exploring Fishing Creek planting options. However, oysters must be planted on a hard substrate or their likelihood of survival is very small. So given Fishing Creek's muddy bottom, it is unclear at this time if a suitable solution will be found to allow oysters to be planted there.
Do I need to purchase a BOCS, or have a pier to participate? No. There are a variety of ways to participate in CBOCS without purchasing a BOCS or having a pier. Primarily we need people willing to donate their time and energy to help maintain the program. For example, we need your help receiving and deploying spat in the fall, planting yearling oysters in the spring, weatherizing BOCSes annually, or there are a variety of committees to help out with as well.
Are there any schools involved in CBOCS? Yes. Beach Elementary School is an active partner in CBOCS and is currently incorporating aspects of oyster restoration into their environmental curriculum for fifth graders.

The championship round of the NFL playoffs was dominated in the media by the rivalry between Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, but the 49ers' Colin Kaepernick and Russell Wilson have their own budding rivalry to consider. Manning and Brady are known for being the top passers in the league, while Wilson and Kaepernick represent the new breed of NFL quarterback.
On Sunday, it was Wilson's Seahawks who were victorious, punching a ticket to the Super Bowl with a 23-17 victory in the NFC Championship. But how did the individual quarterbacks perform?
Kaepernick was the one making waves early in the game. He certainly didn't make things happen with his arm, but he ran the football as well as he ever has. Early in the game, San Francisco used numerous designed runs for Kaepernick, and he escaped more than his fair share of pressure. He finished with 11 carries for 130 rushing yards, all of which were pivotal in the game being close.
But at the end of the game, it was his arm that hurt the 49ers the most. Kaepernick threw an interception on the second play of the team's penultimate drive, after San Francisco came up with a huge stop and fumble recovery on the previous drive.
On San Francisco's final drive, Kapernick completed multiple big passes, including a 17-yard reception to Frank Gore for a fourth down conversion and a 16-yard pass for another. But with two timeouts remaining and the team knocking on the door of the red zone, Kaepernick made a poor, poor decision to throw a pass right at Richard Sherman, who promptly tipped it to a waiting Malcolm Smith who intercepted it to end the game.
Wilson, on the other hand, did not attempt to run the ball much. That's partly because the 49ers effectively bracketed him in, forcing him to multiple situations in which he had to throw it away, but it was still an uncharacteristically slow game from a keeper standpoint. Wilson finished with just five carries for 0 yards.
But more importantly, Wilson completed 16 of his 25 pass attempts for 215 yards. That was plenty efficient to get things done in this game, and he had a touchdown on top of that. The biggest factor in this game: Wilson did not throw any interceptions. He wasn't the most accurate and he didn't make "huge" plays all game, but he made smart decisions and that was a difference maker.
Both quarterbacks have a long, long road ahead of them in the NFL, but both have already accomplished so much. Both also have a lot to still prove, and a lot to improve on when it comes to actually throwing the ball. But it's Wilson who will get his shot at a Super Bowl ring this season, and Wilson who clearly came out ahead on Sunday.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dz3294/south_africa) has announced the addition of the "South Africa Telecom Market Forecast - Mobile Apps, Mobile Ads and Cloud Services to Drive Growth Through 2017" report to their offering.
The South African ICT market is dynamic, strategic and growing fast. It is one of the key markets in the Africa & Middle East (AME) region because of its size and wealth and because it is the home of several important regional telecom players. Its low fixed broadband adoption is a major contributor to the dynamism of the mobile data segment, while the increase in bandwidth afforded by new international connections such as WACS (West African Cable System), which came online in May 2012, is enabling lower data pricing and higher bandwidth.
The growth in the adoption of data services, which Pyramid forecasts on a quarterly basis, is supporting the development of a range of other opportunities and it is here that this report will focus, looking specifically at mobile apps, mobile advertising and cloud services. Not only do these emerging segments afford new revenue streams, but they also provide strategic opportunities in terms of competitive positioning and differentiation.
South Africa Telecom Market Forecast analyzes the South African telecom market in some detail, highlighting a number of key areas of growth now that traditional voice services revenue is flattening. The report focuses on three main areas of growth: mobile apps, enterprise cloud services, and mobile advertising and their influence on the South African market.
Target audience
The report is targeted at a range of industry participants requiring an overview of the market and an analysis of the different players, including:
- Mobile network operators
- Service providers
- IT managers
Companies Mentioned
- Apple
- Business Connexion
- CellC
- Dimension Data
- Internet Solutions
- Mendix
- Microsoft
- Neotel
- Nokia
- Teraco
- Vodacom

Barnard and Columbia first-years were the first to attend a new, two-part workshop on sexual violence and gender-based misconduct on Thursday, which administrators reworked following criticism from student activists, as a mandatory part of this year's NSOP.
Student Life
Following the organization of a student-led task force to examine Columbia's leave of absence policies, the Center for Student Advising announced several changes in August to the medical leave policies for Columbia College and the School of Engineering and Applied Science—but students say there's still more to do.
Though several changes were made last semester and through the summer, the battle to improve the way Columbia deals with cases of sexual assault will likely stretch throughout much of this year, as student activists continue to draw attention to the issue.

Morningside Heights
Morningside Heights has seen its fair share of labor issues over the past year, and more contract negotiations are expected throughout the academic year.
Welcome to Morningside Heights, the neighborhood that Columbia and Barnard call home.
A Columbia Public Safety officer is in critical condition at St. Luke's Hospital after being hit by a car over the weekend.
Book Culture has rehired four store managers who were terminated after last week's vote to unionize, store owners Chris Doeblin and Annie Hedrick announced on Thursday.
During contract negotiations last month, Student Worker Solidarity sent a letter administrators urging them not to sign with Command Security, another company that the University was considering, calling the firm "irresponsible and non-union."
A new gender-based misconduct policy unveiled Friday addresses some long-held student concerns about how Columbia handles cases of sexual assault.
Amale Andraos will become the new dean of the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation on Sept. 1, University President Lee Bollinger announced in a press release on Tuesday.
Kristine Billmyer will step down as dean of the School of Continuing Education at the end of the academic year, University President Lee Bollinger announced in an email on Wednesday.
West Harlem
To the east of Morningside Park lies the legendary neighborhood of Harlem, a neighborhood lined with an eclectic mix of big-box stores, boutique restaurants, immigrant centers, and bodegas.
Rangel received 47.4 percent of the vote, a 3.8 percent and 1,800-vote lead over Espaillat. On Thursday, Espaillat conceded defeat and announced his reelection campaign for State Senate.
After last week's police raid on gangs in the Grant and Manhattanville housing projects, anti-violence advocates are seeking to defuse tensions and direct more funding to community organizations.
Under the plan, first introduced in September 2013, the DOT will reduce lanes and create medians along Morningside Avenue between 116th and 126th streets in an attempt to reduce traffic speeds and improve safety for pedestrians.
David Rosand, CC '59, GSAS '62, and GSAS '65, a longtime Columbia professor who chaired the art history and archaeology department for seven years, died on August 8. He was 75.
Barnard received an $800,000 grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to fund an academic initiative geared toward digital photography, design, and visual storytelling.
Colleagues remember Morton Friedman, a longtime professor and former vice dean at the School of Engineering and Applied Science, as a mentor and a repository of knowledge about Columbia.
A new Core science course to replace Frontiers of Science is on its way, but it won't be ready for the fall.
Upper West Side
The Upper West Side is full of trendy cafés, restaurants, bookstores, and shops up and down the main thoroughfares: Broadway, Amsterdam, and Columbus avenues.
Jean Chambers was hit Thursday afternoon at 95th Street and West End Avenue when a 2004 Ford Expedition made a left turn.
After two nights of impassioned and well-attended public hearings last week, locals against the proposed Jewish Home Lifecare building on West 97th Street are counting the weeks until a final environmental impact statement is released later this summer.
Manhattanville sits on a low, flat plane just north of Morningside Heights. This former industrial neighborhood will soon house Columbia's new campus expansion, which will feature graduate school facilities in the arts, sciences, and business.
The Columbia University Medical Center filed a set of permits on Monday and Tuesday with the Department of Buildings for the School of Nursing's $34.4 million expansion.
In a statement circulated by incumbent Rep. Charles Rangel's campaign last week, former City Council member Robert Jackson said Espaillat should not run for State Senate if he loses the congressional primary.
Members of the recently formed Housing Coalition Against Downsizing gathered Tuesday night to discuss a potential lawsuit against the Department of Housing Preservation and Development to prevent the downsizing of Section 8 housing.

... leaving the palace we had a pasta lunch before going to a cool book shop. They had some cool stairs made of books and after we went to a art gallery. It was a old house converted to a gallery and we saw many paintings and sculptures and got a feel for the history of Venice. When we finished at the gallery we walked through the markets on the way back to our hotel. We were all tired and we watched a movie and had wraps while our parents went out for dinner. Tomorrow is Florence. ...
The Romantic Yet Smelly Venice
... unique part of the world Venice is. As there are no cars on Venice, the buildings are closer together which created another different experience again. Today's booked tours for the group were also different from what had experienced for the last week. This was welcome as the churches are all starting to look the same and we are at the stage where we can't possibly take in anymore information from museums. So we had a glass blowing and a lace and linen tour ...
Venice, blogging on the same day!
We got up this morning to fresh made croissants that had jelly IN them ( I don't think that Italians eat anything but carbs) and headed to San Marcos Square and the Doge Palace. Momma D was rushing us because at 11 the high waters were to be in the square and she wanted us at the palace before that. Luckily, we were late and got to see the whole square flooded and got to walk on the platforms they set up when the the water comes up. Steve, Nate, Tori and I toured the ...

I did try to get some pics but have yet to master the night scene setting on my camera, and my trusty iPad wasn't flashing so nothing much came up. I gave up after a few minutes and decided to enjoy the ride. The Gondolier did remarkably well steering it across the Grand Canal. Which made me wonder, what are the road rules here? With so many ...
Leaving the Ship Behind
... right train that stopped at our hotel and headed to our rooms. After distributing luggage to the proper rooms, I decided to grab a shower and discovered a bathroom so big that eight of our ship bathrooms could fit inside it! It was almost as big as our sleep area. We had gotten so used to cramped quarters that the most exciting thing about our hotel was how huge the bathroom was. An added bonus was this shower didn't move!

*Reviewed on 12.07.2005
The beer pours a malty brown base, white medium head, retention hold for about 30 minutes and signs of lacing upfront but no signs after the first few swigs. The smell is a pleasant light sweetness aroma of malts.
The taste is medium-strong of malts, not too chewy, good aftertaste. The beer partially cleanses the palette, it's never heavy. This is a nice beer to have a 2 beer or 1 Liter session with, after that would be to much at 8.9%
Final Thought: The beer smell and tastes like a lighter doppelbock which contradicts it's ABV, therefore I like it a lot! Thumbs up!

Appearance: hazy with a copper/deep orange colour. The head is big, light tan and well formed. It may not last long and presents little lacing.
Aroma: alcoholic vinous, sweet malts and red fruits notes.
Taste: confirms the aroma plus some toasty bread presence. No hops.
Mouthfeel: unctuous and oily, medium to low carbonation, high but not overwhelming alcoholic strength and a full body.
Finish: warming aftertaste.
Overall: nice doppelbock, thought it lacks bitterness. No bad feature but nothing outstanding either. Worthy a try.
