1. Prepare grill or preheat broiler. Grill the peppers over medium coals or broil 5 inches from heat source, turning occasionally, about 20 minutes or until completely charred but still firm. Transfer to a paper bag and let stand about 10 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
2. Meanwhile, brush the bread lightly on both sides with the oil and grill or broil about 30 seconds per side or until golden. Rub bread with the garlic clove.
3. For Salsa Verde, combine the oil, anchovies, parsley, shallots, capers, tarragon, oregano, thyme, and garlic in a small bowl. Stir in the vinegar, pepper and salt.
4. When peppers are cooled, remove skin and seeds. Cut into 1-inch strips. Spoon Salsa Verde over peppers and serve with grilled bread. Makes 4 servings.

TfL offers to share 2012 bus revenue with bus staff
Transport for London's head of Surface Transport, Leon Daniels wrote to the boss of one of London's leading bus operating companies, John Trayner offering to share extra bus fare revenue generated during the Olympics with bus operators on the condition that they then pass it on to workers.
The TfL offer would see any additional bus fare revenue split 50:50 with bus operating companies, on the condition that it is passed on to bus staff, following the Games. TfL offered to have the amount of additional bus fare revenue generated during the Games independently verified.
The TfL offer comes on top of an offer from the bus operators to supplement the £8.3m from the Olympic Delivery Authority brokered by the Mayor with funds of their own.

William Drabble gone and Miles Nixon is producing excellent plates of food. We have eaten about four times in the last couple of months and he deserves to be up there with some of the best. Canape, amuse bouche and pre-dessert always included with a la carte menu and even these are superbly executed with great depth of flavour – no shyness with flavours and seasoning to be found here. Not many one stars can claim all this. Each time, he has served to impeccable consistent standard…a bit of an alchemist one could say! Another example of a fine chef being passed over by Michelin, so we must continue to fly the flag for him on Squaremeal. He deserves it every bit as much as his local competitors viz. Tom Kerridge (when he was at 1 star, not sure yet whether he deserves 2) and Adam Simmonds, who at last has got his back.
The only big neg' is the atmosphere. Musically, It's stuck in a time warp (it can't surely be the chef's choice) and decor doesn't quite do it for me either (though judging by other reviews here it evidently appeals).
Some may find the wine a bit pricey, but we haven't been disappointed yet. Staff are welcoming and knowledgeable. An establishment which doesn't quite live up to the talent who resides in the kitchen. We'll definitely be back to test how long standards can be maintained. Hopefully he's up to doing quite a few 'Miles' yet.

VNA Legacy Society Introduction
Chances are the VNA has been in your home or helped one of your neighbors, friends, or family members.
The Visiting Nurse Association of Manchester & Southern NH has had a long, dedicated and distinguished record of service to our community. From the 7th day of October, 1897, to the present, the VNA has been a shining light in addressing the needs of Greater Manchester, providing personal care and support for individuals and families, often in their most trying of times.
Every year the dedicated staff and volunteers of the VNA provide the quality home health, hospice, and community services that individuals rely on 365 days a year, 7 days a week.
At the VNA we have developed some simple programs that can benefit not only you and your loved ones, but can put your resources to work for the betterment of others today as well as for future generations.
Thoughtful financial and estate planning can ensure that your financial needs are met for a lifetime and that you have provided for your family in a way that you desire.
Additionally, a thorough plan will address your charitable desires and can provide opportunities for tax benefits – a win – win situation for everyone.
If you wish to remember the Visiting Nurse Association of Manchester & Southern NH in your will, we suggest the following wording: "I bequest to the Visiting Nurse Association of Southern NH Foundation, located at 1070 Holt Ave Suite 1400 Manchester NH 03103, ___ percentage of my estate or the sum of $___ to be used for general charitable purposes".
As a not-for-profit charitable entity, the Visiting Nurse Association of Southern NH Foundation, seeks community support to cover the costs associated with meeting the healthcare and social needs of individuals who lack health insurance and to cover those costs that are not reimbursed through insurance. In-kind gifts, financial donations, and volunteerism enable the VNA to build and maintain the highest quality healthcare in a network that provides a continuum of care to our community at every age and stage of life.
For your thoughtful gifts, past and future, thank you for your support!
Benefits of Making a Planned Gift
Planned giving allows you to leave a legacy and give in a manner you never dreamed possible. Planned giving is prudent for many reasons and including the VNA in your plans will have a lasting impact on the community while enabling you to derive a benefit.
Community Impact:

Support charity care
Support innovative programs
Promote wellness education
Enhance community good health
Individual Benefits:
Maximize your charitable contribution
Tax deductions
Avoid estate taxes
Turn appreciated assets into income for yourself and others

Reach your philanthropic goals
For more information about planned giving and the VNA Legacy Society, please contact the Resource Development office of the Visiting Nurse Association at 603-622-3781 or email your question to us by using this link.
There are many ways to leave a lasting impact on a charitable organization. Planned gifts are the best means for ensuring that your charitable wishes are fulfilled while ensuring income and stability for you and your loved ones. Here are a few examples of the different options available to you:
Bequests - This is the simplest type of planned gift that requires only language in an individual's will leaving cash, property or real estate to the Visiting Nurse Association of Southern NH Foundation. Bequests are revocable. If you have already established a provision in your will remembering the VNA, please notify us so we may invite you to join the VNA Legacy Society.
Trusts - These are a more sophisticated way of leaving a planned gift and can take on different forms (Charitable Remainder Unitrust (CRUT) or a Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust (CRAT)). Both types of Charitable Remainder Trusts provide for specific distributions for one or more beneficiaries for life with an irrevocable interest to be held for the benefit of a charitable organization.
Charitable Gift Annuities - These are contracts established between donors and the charity of their choice allowing the charity to enjoy the benefit of a more substantial gift while the donor receives a guaranteed payment each year from the charity. The American Council on Gift Annuities offers appropriate rates so charitable organizations are not competing based on rates offered to prospective donors.
Charitable Lead Trust - These are somewhat opposite of a Charitable Remainder trust in that the CLT is established with a distribution flowing to the charitable organization for a specified period of time. The remainder interest is retained by the donor and reverts to him or her or some other specified, non-charitable beneficiary.
Life Insurance - Donors may name a charity as the beneficiary of their policy. Accepting life insurance does come with risk if the policy is one that is not paid.
Retirement Plans -Donors may name a charity as the beneficiary in whole or in part or as a contingency beneficiary of a qualified retirement plan (IRA's, 401k's, 403b's, and more).
This is not an all-inclusive lists of the ways in which planned gifts may be received by the Visiting Nurse Association, however, it does give some good examples of the options open to you in your planning.
For more information about planned giving and the VNA Legacy Society, please contact the Resource Development office of the Visiting Nurse Association at 663-4002 or email your question to us by using this link.

WESTBOROUGH, Mass. (BP) -- New England Baptists, at their 2013 annual meeting, adopted a $2,489,905 budget for 2014, a 2 percent increase over this year's revised budget.
The new budget includes projected Cooperative Program giving of $728,071 from BCNE churches, an increase of $34,157 or 4.9 percent over 2013 receipts. The budget includes $1,583,954 from the North American Mission Board and $65,000 from LifeWay.
The BCNE will forward 25 percent of its CP receipts to national and international missions in 2014, the same percentage as this year, after allocating $260,398 for expenses shared by the BCNE and the Southern Baptist Convention, up from $252,439 in the current budget.
SBC President Fred Luter delivered the keynote address at the BCNE 31st annual session, Nov. 8-9 in Westborough, Mass. The 147 registered messengers and 118 guests in attendance represented 87 churches, eight languages and all seven associations in the states.
Messengers presented the Robert H. Brindle award for church planting to Curtis Cook, pastor of Hope Fellowship Church in Cambridge, Mass., honoring the church's continued focus on planting congregations.
The BCNE approved three resolutions honoring those who have made significant contributions to the ministry in New England: Charlotte Hoover, a generous donor to BCNE and SBC causes; Richard Lake, a former longtime pastor; and Johnnie and Lahoma Loar, longtime Mission Service Corps volunteers in Vermont.
In a fourth resolution, messengers affirmed the biblical doctrine of the "wrath of God," pointing out efforts of some to dilute the doctrine.
Gary Palmer, longtime pastor of New Hope Community Church in Ayer, Mass., preached the annual sermon.
Newly elected officers are: president, Neal Davidson, pastor of Hope Chapel in Sterling, Mass., and vice president, Gary Rowe, a member of Island Pond Baptist Church in Hampstead, N.H. Sandy Coelho was reelected clerk and Sandy Wideman was reelected historian.
The convention's 2014 annual meeting will be Nov. 7-8 in Westborough.
Messengers chose John-Paul Lotz, pastor of Church of the Redeemer in Osterville, Mass., to preach the annual sermon, with John Revell, pastor of Stamford Baptist Church in Stamford, Conn., as alternate.
The BCNE includes more than 340 churches and church plants in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.
Compiled from a report by Jim Wideman, executive director of the Baptist Convention of New England.

Stanislau Bahdankevich: Hryvnia devaluation to hit Belarusian export
12:40, — Economics
The devaluation of national currencies of Belarus's neighbourings harms the country's economy.
Stanislau Bahdankevich, a former head of the National Bank of Belarus, talked to charter97.org about 9% devaluation of the Ukrainian hryvnia.
"I think a 9% fall is not a big one. The Belarusian ruble was devalued by almost 11% past year and the Russian ruble has fallen recently. The trade uses mainly the dollar and the euro rather than national currencies. I don't think it will bring big problems," the economist says.
The expert notes the devaluation of national currencies of neighbouring countries harms Belarus's economy theoretically, because the export and import decline.
"The import from Ukraine will be cheaper, while the export to Ukraine will rise in price. The balance between the export and import won't be to our benefit. It may happen theoretically. In general, if, for example, Russia devalues its currency, Belarus should devalues its currency too. If the Ukrainian currency fells, we should do the same. Things are interdependent," Stanislau Bahdankevich said.
On February 7, the National Bank of Ukraine set the official hryvnia exchange rate at 8.708 per dollar. The previous hryvnia exchange rate of 7.993 per dollar was kept since July 9, 2012.

BP to call 1st witness as trial over 2010 Gulf oil spill enters 7th week
NEW ORLEANS - BP is scheduled to call its first witness at a trial designed to determine causes and assign blame for its April 2010 well blowout in the Gulf of Mexico.
The BP witnesses are scheduled to start appearing Monday. They follow testimony presented by Halliburton, BP PLC's cement contractor on the Deepwater Horizon drilling project. Halliburton rested its case Thursday at the end of the trial's sixth week. BP witness testimony is expected to last at least two weeks.
U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier is hearing testimony. Barring a settlement, he could decide how much more money BP and its contractors owe for their roles in the catastrophe.
The trial's first phase should conclude this month. Barbier plans to hold a second phase that examines BP's efforts to stop the spill.

So I know the "The Neutral" is a big stats guy... I am as well. I am a trained researched in applied statistics and really enjoy this stuff. Reading about the Burish signing, I thought I could add a bit to The Neutral's comments about whether or not on-ice save percentage is driven by (1) randomness, (2) quality of the players, or (3) a bit of both.
In my view, without any empirical evidence, I would have close to 100% confidence that #3 has to be the correct choice. Now, I know that most studies by hockey stats people have found no evidence to reject the randomness hypothesis. But, there is an issue with these studies that is often overlooked. The current studies either use Corsi/Fenwick (assuming all shots are created equal) or the more advanced studies use scoring chances (which basically eliminates poor shots and keeps bad shots). Both of these measures have terrible limitations.
Remove your "stats hat" for a moment and put on your "hockey fan hat". Goals occur in a few common ways over and over again: (1) a skilled player makes an amazing play/pass/shot, (2) a goalie misses an easy save, (3) a defensive player makes a bad mistake/missed assignment, (4) a fluky bounce leads to a goal out of nowhere, (5) the offensive team scores because of constant pressure wearing out the defense, or (6) a team gets too aggressive and gives up a counter-attack/breakaway/odd-man rush. Now, those six options (and maybe there are more that I am missing) are all qualitatively different statistical events. Until they are measured properly, you cannot make reasonable statistical conclusions. Quite simply, the save percentage on a clear-breakawy is probably more like 70% (think shootouts), while shots from the perimeter probably lead to save percentages above 95%. A missed defensive assignment leaving the backdoor wide open leads to an almost sure-thing tap-in goal. Shot quality measurement has to matter!
Things like fluky goals are probably entirely driven by randomness. Things like sustained pressure are probably well-measure by player CORSI rates. Things like defensive missed assignments/giving up counter-attacks are probably the sole types of scoring opportunities that are driven by a skater's impact on the on-ice save percentage. So, by treating all shots (or scoring chances) as equal w/o including situations, you are adding noise to your measures. Basically, some goals are mostly driven by randomness and some are mostly driven by the defense of on-ice skaters. Now, you have five skaters which further complicates measurement. If you have ever played a sport, you will know that some players are very adept at communicating with teammates to maintain defensive assignments. Again, difficult to measure. But, if scoring chance data could somehow by grouped into my 6 bins (or, even better, a more comprehensive list), I think you could get a better picture of which players are allowing quality scoring chances and which are not. This would go much further than simply binning perimeter vs. non-perimeter shots.
I hope this spurs some debate and maybe we could see someone actually attempt to measure this type of scoring chance data. Hockey is a very tough sport for statistical analysis. Baseball is very conducive because events are very well isolated. An interesting corrolarry to baseball is the stat: BABIP. This means batting average on balls in play. Until recently, everyone assumed BABIP was uncontrollable. Basically, this was the randomness component in batting averages.... Then, with historical data, some studies showed that elite pitchers maintained very low BABIP's over their full careers (their pitches forced hitters to hit weak balls)... More recently, it has been shown that a few elite hitters have done the opposite; these hitters managed to get on-base when they put balls in play at a statistically higher clip. I think the same thing goes on in hockey with some players (snipers) sustaining above-normal shooting percentages and some players (defensive aces) sustaining below-normal shooting percentages. We just need the correct measures to base our statistical conclusions upon.

Old Navy workers held their third Kids Safety Day Saturday. The event promoted awareness and informed parents of what resources are in the community.
Families stopped by the Old Navy parking lot to learn more about how to be safe in the community.
"I think just from a parent's standpoint, I just like knowing that there are places and resources for us to go so we do have that information to keep him safe," said Shannon Warren. "There's a lot of things that happen every day that you don't know how to deal with."
Old Navy employees invited the Billings Police Department, Billings Fire Department, and Safe Kids of Yellowstone County to provide safety information to children and their parents.
"I just think it's important for our business to be able to help make the community safe and do what we can do to give back to the community," said Mandy Burrow, Old Navy's Store Manager.
The Billings Police Department and Fire Department gave kids tours of their cars and trucks and let them try on gear.
"It's a great opportunity for the police department, fire department, everybody involved to get out there and be one on one with the kids, actually give them some safety tips, offer things like the child id kits and some information for the parents as well," said Tom Keightly, Billings Police Department Public Relations Officer.
"We wanted to make sure that they feel safe when they're talking to us and not scared of firefighters or police men," said Alan Harber, Billings Fire Department Engineer. "We want them to be our friends and educate them to be safe."
Old Navy also teamed up with Famous Dave's and Michaels to provide fun activities for the kids at the event.

Shortly after 4 p.m. on Tuesday, emergency crews responded to what they thought was a roll-over accident near Brownfield Highway and Indiana Ave. What they found was a horrific accident nearby involving a construction worker. District Chief for the Lubbock Fire Department, Chris Angerer, says, "We arrived to find a crane toppled into a ditch."
A construction worker was driving a pipe crane when it toppled over, trapping him between the trench casing and the crane itself. Angerer says, "We responded our heavy rescue team to this location, they extracted the victim out of the trench in 10 to 15 minutes."
From there, the race was on to save the worker's life. Rescue crews frantically performed CPR and the victim was raced to University Medical Center. All those efforts though, were to no avail. Official word of the construction worker's death came shortly after six that evening. Angerer told NewsChannel 11, "The person we extracted from the trench is deceased. He succumbed to his injuries shortly after he was transported to the hospital."
After the announcement, only investigators were left figuring out the pieces of the puzzle, what happened to turn one ordinary man's work day into the last day of his life.
Officials have not yet released the construction worker's name. He worked for Rinks Leasing in Levelland. His crew was working on utility relocation for the Marsha Sharp Freeway Project.

Wikipedia Meaning and Definition on 'Terpene'
Terpenes (pronounced /ˈtɜrpiːn/ TUR-peen) are a large and varied class of organic compounds, produced primarily by a wide variety of plants, particularly conifers, though also by some insects such as termites or swallowtail butterflies, which emit terpenes from their osmeterium.
They are the major components of resin, and of turpentine produced from resin. The name "terpene" is derived from the word "turpentine". In addition to their roles as end-products in many organisms, terpenes are major biosynthetic building blocks within nearly every living creature. Steroids, for example, are derivatives of the triterpene squalene.
When terpenes are modified chemically, such as by oxidation or rearrangement of the carbon skeleton, the resulting compounds are generally referred to as terpenoids. Some authors will use the term terpene to include all terpenoids. Terpenoids are also known as isoprenoids.[See more about Terpene at Dictionary 3.0 Encyclopedia]

The class of the NL East is seemingly extending its lead on a daily basis.
Justin Upton blasted two home runs and Julio Teheran sparkled on the mound to lead the Atlanta Braves to a big-time, 11-2 win over the Colorado Rockies. The win completed a sweep of the Rockies for Atlanta, but more impressively, the Braves have just completed a flawless homestand with 7 consecutive victories.
For Upton, his barrage of blasts could potentially signify a turnaround in his fortunes at the plate. After a torrid start to the year, he's been mired in a months-long slump, but after his 2-HR, 5-RBI performance, it is certainly possible that he has fixed whatever ailed him.
On the mound, Julio Teheran was absolutely spectacular for Atlanta. The youngster lasted only 5 innings due to pitch count concerns, but he struck out a staggering 11 Rockies through a 103-pitch outing. Teheran allowed only 5 hits (and 2 walks) to go along with the K's, and his only blemish came on a Chris Dickerson sacrifice fly in the 2nd frame.
The NL's leading hitter, Braves' 3B Chris Johnson, extended his batting average lead with a 3-for-5 day that saw his average rise to .346. Also, the Braves got solid performances from Freddie Freeman (2-for-4, 2 runs), Jason Heyward (1-for-3, HR, 3 runs, 2 BB), and Teheran even helped himself with a 2-for-2 day at the plate that included an impressive double.
As it stands, the Braves have the largest division lead in all of baseball at 11.5 games over the Washington Nationals. While it is still too early to "call" the NL East in favor of the Braves (just think about 2011), it is becoming more and more of a formality every day, and with the way they are playing at their home ballpark (Turner Field), it would be a shock to see them do anything aside from cruising to an impressive division title.

In the garden
Growing a fall vegetable garden
Harvesting vegetables out of your own garden is very satisfying. Vegetables you grow yourself just seem to taste better, and it's particularly nice to know they also help reduce the grocery bill.
You can continue to enjoy home-grown vegetables until first frost or, in some cases, until several weeks after the first freeze if you begin putting a fall vegetable garden in now.
In Central Virginia, the first frost usually occurs around Oct. 15, so early August is the right time to begin planning and planting.
"We'll start our seeds during the next couple of weeks," says Henrico Master Gardener Robin Bryant, who's planning a fall garden with residents at the home where she works as a counselor. "It will be time to take out our squash, and that frees up a big space for planting."
Last year Bryant raised fall crops of lettuce, beets, collards, turnips and kale in her garden. "Some crops will even overwinter here," she says. "Last year, I thought the kale was dead and started to pull it out, but my boyfriend suggested we leave it in, and it came back in the spring."
Many vegetables can be grown in the fall, and the flavor of some, such as cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, Jerusalem artichokes, and Brussels sprouts may actually be improved after a frost.
If they're mulched, kale, spinach, onions, lettuce, parsley, parsnips, carrots and salsify can be enjoyed throughout the winter.
Before planting fall crops, you may need to restore nutrients removed by spring and summer crops by adding compost or a light application of a complete chemical fertilizer to your soil.
Seeds need to be planted in moist soil so plant after a rain or water thoroughly the day before. The Virginia Extension Service recommends sprouting seeds indoors before planting for a fall garden. Sprouted seeds can be planted deeper than normal which helps prevent them from drying out.
Bryant hasn't tried sprouting her seeds before planting, but she agrees that attentive watering is a must, especially after seedlings begin to appear. "You have to keep watering," says Bryant. "Water, water, water, every day, sometimes even twice a day, or the little seedlings are not going to make it."
Insects may not pose the same problems in fall vegetables because their peak activity is usually in mid-summer, but you'll still need to check the plants periodically. Rotating crops so that those in the same family are not put back into the same space in the garden can also help prevent disease and pest problems.
"When I was a child gardening with my father, we only had a summer garden," says Bryant. "But when I became a master gardener, I learned about fall gardens and started planting them."
"We really enjoy our gardens," she adds.
Fall gardens help optimize production from your gardening space, and they can be an opportunity to try again if something you planted in the spring didn't grow. As Henrico Extension Agent Lisa Sanderson says, "Gardening is always a lovely learning experience."

Cuisia (pictured above with festival performers) was welcomed by County Manager John Vithoulkas and Brookland District Supervisor Dick Glover (below) at the church, which is located in Lakeside.
While enjoying some of the cultural performances at the festival, the ambassador and his wife had a private lunch with Vithoulkas, Glover, Eldon Burton (an outreach representative from U.S. Senator Mark R. Warner's Office) and Father James Begley, the pastor of OLL. > Read more.

Short Pump brewery offers more than just beer
I am still (happily) thinking about my entire experience at Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery last week. Knowing nothing about this new brewery out of Denver, I was leery of brew-pub in the heart of Short Pump Town Center – this is not what I'd usually think of as a perfect fit, and yet, it was.
The restaurant and craft brewery opened in early June and features 10 beers made by female brewmaster Becky Hammond (pictured). This is the restaurant's second location in Virginia; the first is in Arlington. Behind glass walls, customers watched the beer brewing in massive steel barrels. For our up-and-coming beer region, it makes sense that Short Pump would jump on board.
As I walked up to the back of the mall near the comedy club, I was taken aback by what I saw: at the top of the stairs was an overflowing restaurant with outdoor seating, large umbrellas and dangling outdoor lights. > Read more.

I was sitting at my desk today during 2nd period of an average school day. And since it was an average school day, I began to ponder on something completely unrelated to the subject matter at hand. My mind wanders off to the green fields of RBIA so easily these days during school because, you see, I am a senior- a senior who has already completed all of my college applications, sent in my transcripts/SAT scores, yada yada yada. I've already been accepted to one of these fine institutions of higher learning. Because of this, a poor close-minded Bible thumping adolescent such as myself struggles to find genuine incentive in paying too much attention during a class which has no impact upon the process of me formulating my world-view.You've probably already labeled me as a haughty know-it-all type that doesn't know-it-all because of that run-on in the preceding sentence, but I want you guys to know that, in reality, far away from computer screens, I'm really just a simple, low-key, introspective, not overly talkative, Rangers loving white male, not unlike many of you guys. And that leads me to the meat of the introduction to this simple quandry I will humbly lay before the diverse peoples which make up our fair blog.
While I was sitting in this class today, my mind wandered to the heated political/religious discussion we had on this here blog a couple days ago in which it seemed my reputation took a hit among many of you guys for reasons I still see to be debatable. But anyways, I remember somebody saying I'd probably end up going "to some Bible college where I can continue to close my mind". I mean, I don't care that someone on here thinks that, but luckily for you guys, I am now going to release for you guys the colleges to which I have already applied and those which I am considering in order of current preference:
Oklahoma State University (been accepted to)
University of North Texas (applied) - and I know many fellow LSBers go there;)
University of Texas at Austin (applied)
Texas A&M University (applied)
Tulane University (applied)
Baylor University (applied)
Bryan College(the Bible college where I would close my mind)
So the question I leave you guys with is:
Which one should I look to attend? and yes I already know of UT's and A&M's elite academics.
Oh and for whoever asks:
my SAT scores: Critical Reading: 630
Math: 620
Writing: 640
as they say on MXC, "Get it On!"

This is a sponsored review from BlogHer and Slim·Fast.
There's an event I've been preparing for since May of 2006. No, it's not a big vacation, or a much-anticipated wedding, or another child … it's my husband's 25th college reunion. It's a time to reconnect with people we haven't seen for 5 or 10 years or more, to reminisce about what used to be, and to share our plans and hopes for the future.
Reunion, what's the big deal, you ask. Those come around every 5 years or so, right?
Yes, Princeton invites alumni back every year to celebrate, but the major reunions are every five years. When you're back for a major reunion, it's an all-out party weekend, chock-full of activities from community service projects and educational panels to music and entertainment. There's fun for all ages, with face painting, scavenger hunts, and bouncy castles to keep the kids entertained! It all culminates in the P-rade on Saturday afternoon.
And if you're going to march in the P-rade (or be anywhere near campus, for that matter), you had better like orange and black, as you'll be seeing (and wearing!) a lot of it! More than 20,000 alumni and guests return each year; that's a lot of tiger stripes!
For the past 5 years I've been collecting orange and black clothing and accessories. Orange bangles on a clearance rack? I snap them up! Black shorts that will fit my six-year-old this summer? I'll take two pair! Orange flip-flops? I add add six pair to the shopping cart!
Orange, like the camera, adds 15 pounds. OK, that's not entirely true. Aside from amassing reunion clothing, I've added a little personal padding since the last time we saw this gang. I'd like to shed 5 or 10 pounds and be more comfortable during the Reunions 5K fun run which benefits a local after-school program.
The best way for me to shape up is to be more active and to watch my food choices. I'm back on the treadmill, plugged into an audiobook, three mornings a week. That's walking (not running) three or four miles, whatever I can get done in the hour or so I have.
When the afternoon rolls around and I need a pick-me-up with my cup of tea, I'm choosing not to reach for the kids' school snacks. Instead, I grab a pack of Slim-Fast snack bars; they're only 100 calories each, and the built-in portion control keeps me from grabbing another handful like I tend to do with pretzels or chips. There are five flavors to choose from; my favorites are Chocolate Mint and Chocolatey Vanilla Blitz. I tuck a package of Slim-Fast snack bars in my handbag when I'm on the go; it keeps me from acting like a hungry tiger and over-indulging if I get the munchies on the road.
There are two months until Reunions, and I'm confident I can reach my goals, share my elevator pitch about our family, walk/run the 5K without panting (too much), and march in the P-rade in my questionably fashionable orange attire.

At today's press conference for UFC 104 in Los Angeles, both UFC light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida and his challenger Mauricio "Shogun" Rua declined to make their upcoming bout personal but they did promise to make it a clash of styles.
Shogun said he is an aggressive fighter and Machida is a counter-fighter. Also, Shogun said it was an opportunity to test his Muay Thai style and prove that it can beat Machida's karate style.
For old school fans this has a disorienting back to the future quality. When MMA first burst upon the scene in the US and Japan in the early 1990s it was seen as first and foremost a test of styles.
Coincidentally the UFC was part-owned by the Gracie family who had a very effective style of their own in Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Initially it seemed that only grapplers like Gracie or wrestlers like Ken Shamrock had effective styles for the Octagon, but with the emergence of Muay Thai striker Marco Ruas in UFC 7 it seemed that a style of striking that worked in MMA had been found.
Even with the emergence of boxer/wrestlers like Tank Abbott and Don Frye and kickboxers like Maurice Smith and Igor Vovchanchyn, Muay Thai still dominated as the preeminent striking style for MMA. The emergence of Brazil's fearsome Chute Boxe camp seemed to cement Muay Thai as the most versatile and effective standup style for MMA.
Ironically, before he trained in Muay Thai at Chute Boxe, Shogun trained in Brazil's traditional capoeira style -- a style whose exponents had fought against jiu jitsu fighters in Brazil for many years, even picking up a huge win over jiu jitsu at the dawn of the modern MMA era. But although Shogun has shown off some crazy spinning kicks from his capoeira roots a time or two, he's predominantly a Muay Thai fighter no doubt.
For most of the past decade the conventional wisdom had been set. Certain styles worked in different phases of MMA: for takedowns wrestling and judo, for submission grappling jiu jitsu and catch wrestling, and for striking it was boxing, kickboxing or Muay Thai.
Other styles -- TKD, Karate, Kung Fu -- didn't work, we "knew" this.
The rise of Lyoto Machida and his strong case for the effectiveness of Shotokan Karate techniques in MMA (as part of a well-rounded fighter's arsenal, etc etc) has turned that conventional wisdom on its head.
Machida showed in his win over Thiago Silva that he can handle a graduate of the Chute Boxe academy, now we'll get to see if he can handle the man many believe is the best to ever come out of Chute Boxe in Shogun Rua.-- image via Sherdog.com

I am a Steeler fan in St Louis, and would like opinions on Ben's perception in the Burg. A lot of the media, in particular the recent AP article did a nice job of describing the importance of the Steelers to Pittsburgh,and indicated that "most" fans want to get rid of Ben for the sake of the franchise pride (or something like that).
As a life long Steeler fan, I get the connection to the team. The Steeler mystique. The way the country is full of loyal fans. However, I tend to assume the "get rid of Ben" crowd, is likely the loud, "talk radio" types who always yell the loudest and get the most attention. What do you locals think? How does it break down?
I have read the facts, I am not pleased with Ben's behavior, and I believe he is being made an example by Goodell. I have decided to treat Ben like a good friend or family member who got in trouble- I am not going to abandon you, but you really need to clean it up.
Appreciate your perspective.

Wyalusing Creek
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wyalusing Creek is a 19.1-mile-long (30.7 km)[1] tributary of the Susquehanna River in Susquehanna and Bradford counties, Pennsylvania in the United States.[2]
It forms at Lawton at the confluence of the Middle Branch and East Branch Wyalusing Creek. The creek flows west, then southwest.
Approximately 6.5 miles (10.5 km) before joining the Susquehanna River, Wyalusing Creek passes through Camptown, the inspiration for the Stephen Foster song "Camptown Races".[2]
Wyalusing Creek joins the Susquehanna River at Wyalusing.[2]

Hertsmere Borough Council issues 'zero tolerance' recycling policy
Updated 1:39pm Wednesday 26th March 2014 in News By Anna Slater, Chief Reporter
Hertsmere Borough Council has tightened its recycling rules after finding nappies and chicken in people's bins.
The authority has told residents that brown bins will not be collected if they contain full plastic bags, even if they have recycling inside.
The brown bins are used for glass, cartons, plastic, cans, empty plastic bags and cardboard items.
For more information about recycling or to enquire about a bigger brown bin please visit www.hertsmere.gov.uk/recycling or call 020 8207 7480.

Cardboard is now meant to go in the brown bins and one brown bin cannot cope with all the recycling of a family, so things that could be recycled now have to go in the black bin and to landfill. Hertsmere council say that an extra brown bin is available but when you ask, there has to be a minimum of 5 people in the house. I have even offered to buy one but that is not allowed. It is not worth the missus popping another child out just to get another brown bin.

Of course, if your brown bin doesn't get emptied you can always take your recycling to one of the local collection points.

Frank Ward says...
The binmen are public servants employed to serve the community of Boreham Wood.
Therefore, prior to making such disparaging and condescending judgement he would be well advised to obtain a copy of the 'job description' of the binmen and a copy of the 'mission statement' of their employers, Hertsmere Borough Council who are responsible for their service delivery.
David Burcombe may then become aware that apart from the occasional lapse in common sense by the binmen, something to which we may all plead guilty to from time to time,on further examination the finger prints of an non-elected quango of European Commissioners would reveal indisputable evidence of an indelible link with Brussels where they burn the midnight oil in non-smoked filled rooms, beavering away producing legislation for central government and local authorities in this country to implement under a threat of being fined.
Meanwhile, back in Boreham Wood the Council's 'complaints procedure' I have found to be impartial and indiscriminate in dealing with members of the public but you need evidence not cynical criticism.

Matt Suggs Radio
After doing four albums as half of the indie pop duo Butterglory in the '90s, Matt Suggs made an impressive solo debut with Golden Days Before They End in 2000. Suggs' wry, laconic delivery is quite reminiscent of that of the Kinks' Ray Davies, as are his melodic and quirky tunes. He's not a total Davies knockoff, though, with more of an American roots feel to his work, as well as a more oblique lyricism that makes clever use of spooky images and turns of phrase. ~ Richie UnterbergerPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

[Ed. note -- Front Page'd]
It's pretty clear at this point that Steve Donahue has been a failure at Boston College. I always supported allowing him to coach at least through the 2014-15 season, but circumstances have led me to reevaluate that position. Donahue's current team is underachieving, and even if they were playing up to their potential, it's clear now that Donahue's fully realized program building will only ever result in an average ACC team at best.
There are no signs that Donahue is going to turn things around. In his 4 recruiting cycles he has brought in only a single top-100 player (Ryan Anderson, who wasn't even consensus). He hit big on Olivier Hanlan and Joe Rahon, but I believe that a Rahon-level player is the floor as to what is acceptable if Donahue is going to continue bringing in sub-100 players. Donahue's 2013 and 2014 recruiting classes have been absolute failures (there is no 2014 class) and there's no evidence that he has any big prospects in the 2015 class, which is the class that will need to replace the giant graduating class.
Bruce Pearl is a Boston College alum and a Sharon native. He's an incredibly successful coach, both in-game and as a recruiter. He's a proven winner at the D-1 level, who took a BCS school with no men's basketball tradition to a Sweet 16 and an Elite 8. And yeah, he has a show-cause penalty that lasts until August. What this would mean is that were we to hire him prior to that, he wouldn't be able to engage in recruiting activities of any kind. No school in their right mind is going to hire a coach under a show-cause penalty. No school in their right mind is going to hire a coach in August either. So here's what I propose.
Assuming we do indeed miss the NCAAs this year, fire Donahue as soon as the season ends. Hire Bruce Pearl. He's not in a position to say no. Let him work with the current team all summer. We'll have a good roster next season assuming people stick around (let him recruit the current team while he can't recruit high schoolers). Hopefully we make the NCAAs in 2014-15 with Hanlan and Anderson playing for Pearl, and generate some good buzz behind the program (basically the equivalent of what Donahue had his first year with Jackson, etc, but hopefully more successful).
The downside to this idea is that you essentially forfeit the 2014 and 2015 recruiting cycles. But, as I said above, there is no 2014 recruiting cycle anyway. We don't have anyone for that class. 2015 isn't gonna be much better. I have every confidence that even starting in August, Pearl could piece together a 2015 class that would be almost as good as the one Donahue would assemble. Especially if the 2014-15 team plays well, Pearl could clean up in the 2015 late-signing period. 2015-16 and maybe 2016-17 as well will be down years for the team as Pearl will have to get his system in place. But things aren't looking better under Donahue. We have an amazing opportunity this year to get a guy like Bruce Pearl. Nobody else of that caliber would ever consider coming to BC given the circumstances we're in. Donahue had his shot and it didn't work. I really do like Donahue, and I've been one of his biggest supporters since he was hired, but we need to make this move.

MEDIA ADVISORY: First African-American To Walk in Space Will Visit NJIT on July 14, 2010
WHO: Bernard Harris, MD, of Houston, veteran of two space shuttle missions and the first African-American to walk in space, visits NJIT July 14, 2010. He'll teach in the morning, then speak to youngsters at a luncheon. During the class, students will design and build a straw and tin foil raft, then see how many pennies the raft can hold before sinking. It is based on Archimedes' principle.
WHAT: Some 55 middle school students from New Jersey and New York are participating in the two-week ExxonMobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp. At the upcoming event, students will build rafts from limited supplies and face off in an intense competition. In addition, they'll learn about science careers with ExxonMobil engineers and scientists plus hear an inspiring message from camp founder Harris. NJ students live in: Closter, Cresskill, Dayton, Edison, East Orange, Ewing, Franklin Park, Hillsborough, Hillside, Jersey City, Kearny, Landing, Marlboro, Montclair; Newark, North Bergen, North Brunswick, Northvale, Orange, South Orange, Palisades Park, Parsippany, Paterson, Pennington, Roselle, Somerset, Stanhope, Teaneck, Tenafly, Union, Wallington, West Orange. NY students are from: Bellmawr, Bronx, Bayside and Hartsdale.
WHEN: Harris visits Wednesday, July 14 at 10:30 a.m. while he teaches a class. At 12:30 p.m. he'll address students.
WHERE: NJIT, Newark, NJ
WHY: Studies show that the United States is facing a critical shortage of engineers, scientists and other technically trained workers. To help address this crisis, former astronaut Bernard Harris and ExxonMobil are providing 30 free two-week summer camps across the country that offer innovative math and science programs to encourage middle school students to stay in school, develop their knowledge and foster their interest in engineering.
