Travel Skiing: Which way should you turn?
Thinking of buying yourself some skis? It helps to know what questions you'll be asked
Saturday 24 October 1998
The trick with exams, of course, is knowing what questions will come up. And I can help there.
Not only did I join Snow+Rock's annual ski test in April, at St Christoph in Austria, where all this season's new models were evaluated by 80-odd members of the company's staff; I also found out how the staff test customers coming into the shops to buy skis.
The first tip? Don't express a preference for the make of ski your instructor recommended last season: ski instructors are notoriously conservative - they've been using tradtional skis for years, and don't see why their expertise should be devalued by carving skis, which are both easier and more fun to use. Don't say, when asked about the last pair of skis you bought, that they were red ones, or, worse still, that they were slalom skis; even if the latter is true, dyslexia is so common among skiers that it will be assumed that they were in fact made by Salomon. And don't quote the old chestnut that the better the skier, the longer the ski. There used to be some truth in this, but with the advent of carving skis, which are worn comparatively short, it causes sniggers in the back of the shop.
Be prepared instead to answer honestly the following questions. For how long have you been skiing? (Answer this one in total weeks skied, because someone who says "for 10 years" may have skied for only one week, 10 years ago.) Which other active sports do you do? (The answer gives a clue to the way you ski, on a spectrum from finesse to ferocity.) What is your idea of a great day's skiing: is it powder all the way, smooth skiing on-piste, or riding the bumps? Do you have high aspirations, and need skis that you will grow into? And what are your vital statistics - budget, height and weight? (Don't lie about the last, because it is critical to the adjustment of your bindings.)
Your answers will determine which category of ski is suitable for you. In the Snow+Rock ski test, the different models were categorised - to compare like with like - and then ranked according to their suitability for a spectrum of skiers from beginners (level one) to experts (level 10). Testers pounded down the same slope at St Christoph, in consistent snow conditions, to ensure a figurative level playing-field for each pair of skis. After every three runs, they headed into the pits - literally, since the manufacturers' representatives dug themselves into the snow so that eye-level adjustments could be made to binding settings - for a quick ski-change.
This year, there were clear favourites in some categories. Among the mid-range carving skis, the Head Cyber Cross TI, the K2 Merlin Three and the Fischer Revolution Super Carve all did well on the test; for expert carvers, the Atomic Beta Carve 9.26 and the Salomon Axendo were highly rated; and among the competition giant slalom skis the clear winners were the Atomic Beta Race 10.26 and the Rossignol 9X.
But the real stars of the test were the new free-ride skis. Wider overall than other carving skis, but still with the characteristic waisted shape, they cope with all snow conditions both on- and off-piste. They are the hottest skis in the US and were in great demand among the testers, particularly the Salomon X-Scream and Atomic Beta Cruise 9.22 models. How do you qualify for them? Cheating at an exam is not to be recommended, of course, especially if it leads to buying unsuitable skis; but I did question Dion Taylor, Snow+Rock's equipment manager, about the kind of customer to whom he would recommend free-ride skis. His answer was: "Someone who says he wants to develop his off-piste abilities, have the whole ski area as his playground, and get to the bottom first." Now you know.

SOCIAL PROTESTERS rally in Jerusalem 370.
(photo credit:Marc Israel Sellem)
Two phone calls and a letter that I received a week ago reveal as much about the financial state of the country as they do about my own finances.The first was from my bank. There's something about a phone call from the bank that makes you automatically feel guilty, like a schoolchild called to the principal's office without knowing the reason.Maybe it was part of some kind of deep psychological strategy, to try to get me to agree to something I did not need, out of pure relief that I was not in trouble. My account was not overdrawn, but the pleasant voice of a teller I have known for years asked me kindly if I'd like a loan for the religious holiday season.My first reaction was to wonder why then? Why not the school summer vacation period, when expenses rocket? My second reaction was to realize that, in any case, it was not a question she should be asking.It's hard to trust your bank when instead of encouraging you to save, it is trying to push a loan you cannot afford and have not requested.And it wasn't just this bank either: The mortgage bank didn't call – it sent a lovely letter suggesting a loan to help cover the cost of renovations that I'd been thinking of.Actually, I hadn't been thinking of renovations but it wasn't a bad guess: Renovating kitchens and bathrooms is almost a national pastime in Israel.The second call that got me thinking was from a Tel Aviv investment company whose name I didn't catch because I was laughing too much.The young man at the other end of the line – obviously more used to being greeted by anger or stony silence – was taken aback by the sound of a woman assuring him that he had the proverbial wrong number. My idea of investing at the moment consists of spending money to fix my computer.The disturbing aspect of these phone calls and the seductive letter from the mortgage bank is that they were aimed at encouraging me to live at a level that I could not afford. True, the economy relies on consumers, well, consuming; but the bank loan is not in my best interests. If anything, my bank (and not some unknown investment house) should have been calling me to suggest investing (or at least saving) rather than urging me and other customers to live beyond our means.And this seems indicative of a trend. On Saturday night last week, the social protesters were back – as everyone had predicted – marching in rallies in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Haifa."There are 5,000 people in [Tel Aviv's] Ibn Gvirol Street: Where are you?" asked a colleague via the marvels of modern technology.The answer was simple. I was at home trying to figure out not only what the protesters were really demanding but – even more importantly – who they were following. I didn't quite fathom the answer to either question.The call might be for social justice for all, but I couldn't help feeling the aim was far more self-centered.It was definitely more political than last year, too. In those heady summer months last year, with obvious exceptions, the bulk of the protesters really were pulling together for a greater cause. Last weekend, the slogans and placards left no doubt what the objective was: Removing the prime minister from power.AS A student, I did rally for various relevant issues – against proposed hikes in tuition or dormitory fees, for example. But – and I know I'm showing my age – in those days not only were our means modest, so were our lifestyles. We shared dorm rooms; few students had cars; and today's expensive communications and computer equipment was undreamed of (in fact, access to a phone of any kind was the dream of most students and my ownership of an English typewriter provided me with an occasional job).When did it change? The protesters are calling for "social justice" – a catchphrase with undeniable appeal. I can sympathize with the yearning for affordable housing; free or greatly subsidized day care (a major expense for those with young children); and a more even distribution of the burden of taxes. They lose my sympathy, however, with their demands for a lifestyle they think they deserve, rather than what the country can live with.The social protest movement has raised some important issues and has chalked up some achievements, not just in raising public awareness but changing the atmosphere. The decision last week by outgoing Bank Leumi CEO Galia Maor to forgo a hefty bonus of NIS 3.25 million was undoubtedly taken with public opinion in mind.The monopolistic pyramids that control many fields of Israeli life are being disbanded, gradually – witness the change in the cellphone companies, which are finally as a result of enforced healthier competition bringing prices down (although on the flip side, people are consequently losing their jobs).I support the social protesters' right to rally – even though I chose not to exercise my right to join them. In fact, I am proud of the fact that they can demonstrate.Many talkbackers rhetorically (and viciously) asked the demonstrators questions about their presumed fate had they been protesting in Israel's neighboring countries.This is hardly the point: Thank heavens we can still have rallies, good-natured ones; demonstrations where the greatest suffering endured is a self-inflicted headache from the noise.More relevant is the situation in other Mediterranean countries like Greece and Spain. These economies are more melt-down nation than start-up nation – and it's easier to see how they got in this state than to figure out how to successfully remedy it.They got into the ugly situation they now find themselves by following a dream – one they were being sold. You can't borrow and borrow without knowing how to pay back tomorrow. My bank should know that, and probably does, which is why its policy is so disturbing.If you only have a certain level of income, then you can't go above a certain level of expenditure. It's true for the average household struggling to make it from one payday to the next; and it's true of countries.It should also hold for those unfondly known as "The Tycoons" – the few who control the purse strings of the rest of us. The same bank which would undoubtedly phone me for a far less pleasant conversation had I been even a few thousand shekels overdrawn continues to lend money to the chosen few even when they are millions in debt. I don't know who is laughing all the way to the bank and who will have the last laugh. I just hope it doesn't end in tears.OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurria during a visit to Israel last week praised the local economy but, in my opinion – humble, like my lifestyle – we still need to be careful.We cannot afford to give up on our dreams but we will never realize them if we continue to buy illusions.The writer is editor of The International Jerusalem Post. firstname.lastname@example.com

Lately, I've been amusing myself on my commute to and from my home in Fort Bend County by counting the hawks I see along the way.
"Hawks?," you ask with a mixture of confusion and awe (or boredom, depending on whether you're a screen person or a nature person). Yes hawks. The record so far is six on the way home on New Years Eve -- one on Beamer Road between the library and the beltway, four on the beltway, and one at my exit. The one at my exit actually is kind of sad, because before Christmas there were always two there, and my family this week spotted a large pile of feathers on the freeway matching the couple's coloration.

A fine dining place with a great athmosphere and a friendly staff plus excellent food. Mike Gladnick, the Manager, insures a great visit. He greets you at the door, escorts you to your table, checks on service and bids you good-bye.
The pastrami (The Rachel) equals New York.
We visited this restaurant for lunch and both of us were satisfied with our meals. The service was very good and the portions were just right
Good food, good service, but a couple of glaring deficiencies. First impression upon entering is that it's elegant, and it is, sort of. Everybody's nice too. Now the downside: small portions, limited menu, & overpriced. We were served one thin slice of bread, not a basket. I ordered pumpkin soup, they delivered lobster bisque, in spite of me telling them...
Very pleasant, charming atmosphere, delightful staff. Truly Creative Fresh Food for a light dinner - from fresh oysters to fabulous Italian dishes, great steaks, or vegan/vegetarian offerings and more. If you read their website reviews they are spot on. Truly the best meal we have had anywhere! Isabella will be our go to every time we are in the area.
The hostess met us at the door and greeted us byname. Yes, we made a reservation. The server was pleasant and helpful. We ordered a glass of wine and an IPA. The menu was adequate, the food delicious. My wife had a small plate of scallops and I had the hanger steak with signature potatoes. One of the best meals...
This restaurant isn't large, but the atmosphere is quite and calm and the food is absolutely delicious. My husband had the peach gazpacho and I had the lobster tacos--both great. My husband ordered the tuna with the coconut rice--absolutely fantastic. I wanted to steal it. We would definitely come back.
Modern, upscale atmosphere combined with great food and excellent service. Wait staff was friendly and prompt, very accommodating to menu substitutions. Reservations may be advisable on weekends or for special events as the restaurant is not large.
Food. Service. Atmosphere. All excellent. This is one of the best restaurants in NE Pennsylvania.
Lunch as well as dinner. Try the roast turkey at lunch, its not the usual deli slices most places sell. Its real, roasted turkey.
We walked in with no reservations after a day of site seeing dressed pretty casual with no reservations but they made us welcome even though you really should prepare for this fabulous restaurant. The four of as ordered different menu items and they were all fresh inspiring meals. I believe I had halibut which was as fresh as if you...
Went to Isabella Restaurant and Bar twice for business dinners. Atmosphere was better than average. Menu was high end with very high prices. Service was extremely slow and several people had to wait a long time for food to be served. Won't go back.

If you want to win in the NBA, forget point guards. Go big.
Sep 5, 2011, 6:12 PM EST
During the summer, we get a buzz watching John Wall say he is back and slash through guys at the Goodman league. Or watching Brandon Jennings cut it up at the Drew League.
We relate to the normal sized guy who can find a way to get it done in the NBA. We love Derrick Rose and crown him MVP in part because we marvel at what he can do at 6'3" as opposed to a Dwight Howard, who is a freak of nature at an athletic 6'11". We don't really relate to the guys 6'11" because we are not near that tall and nobody we know is 6'11". Or taller. We all want the next Jordan, the next Rose, not the next Kareem.
But if you want to win, you need the trees, not the point guards.
Jonathon Tjarks lays it out in a great post at SB Nation.
Since the Lakers acquired Pau Gasol in 2008, they have gone 12-2 in playoff series, either winning the title or losing to the eventual champions. The only two teams that beat them (Boston in 2008, Dallas in 2011) were the only two teams that had the size, length and skill to match the Lakers front-line of Gasol, Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum….
After making it to the Western Conference Finals in 2007, the Utah Jazz ran into the Lakers three straight seasons — losing 4-2 in 2008, 4-1 in 2009 and 4-0 in 2010. With a front-line that prominently featured the 6'9 Carlos Boozer and the 6'7 Paul Millsap, the Jazz never really had a chance. In 15 playoff games between the two teams, Boozer shot 45% from the field while Gasol shot 58%….
LeBron James is the NBA's best player because of his ability to dominate the paint at 6'9 and 270 pounds, and for all the talk of his mental fragility, the blueprint for beating him has been the same for five years now: a mobile and athletic seven-footer who can cut off his usually overpowering drives at the rim. It was Tim Duncan in 2007, Kevin Garnett in 2008, Dwight Howard in 2009, Garnett again in 2010 and Tyson Chandler in 2011.
Size matters. The old coaching adage is "tall and good beats small and good." You just can't throw a big stiff out there, but if you have a Gasol or Nowitzki or Kevin Garnett you have an advantage over a team with a great point guard and no size in the middle.
Which is something Lakers fans may want to keep in mind when they start talking about trading Gasol or Bynum.

I've felt this way ever since Robert Horry beat the 76ers in Game 3 of the 2001 Finals. The second tallest 76er to Dikembe Mutombo during that play was the 6'5″ Aaron McKie.
The diva shoot-first perimeter player needs less regard now!!! However, extremely tall kids should go to legitimate big man camps and their high school coaches should utilize them properly; instead of letting a Harlem Globe Trotter game take place!!!

Amazon developing pay-TV streaming service - report
REUTERS - Amazon (AMZN.O) is in the early stages of developing a pay-TV streaming service with live programming, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal.
Amazon approached at least three media companies, according to people familiar with the matter the Journal reported.
Representatives for Amazon did not immediately return a request seeking comment.
Amazon now offers on-demand TV shows and movies free to customers who are members of Amazon's premium shipping service Prime.
The world's largest online retailer is joining the ranks of several other companies including Sony (6758.T) that are trying to own the living room with TV programming piped through the Internet. Intel (INTC.O) tried as well, though it scrapped its ambitions and sold its project to Verizon (VZ.N) earlier on Tuesday for an undisclosed sum. <ID: nL2N0KV0FS>

If the issue remains unchecked and unrepaired, the light gets stronger and more insistent...

Help Wanted
Job: To help sengdao with >>>Studying Chess Masters<<<
How to apply: Post on this saying you're applying
What is >>>Studying Chess Masters<<<? It is a study of a chess master game.
How are you going to help? Giving me some chess master games.
I hope you apply but only the first 20 that apply will be accepted.\
Good Luck,
Count me in i like studying master chess games.
Go up to the "More" menu tab at the top of your screen there.
Click on it and then on the drop down menu select "downloads".
Look for "Masters' Games" in the download section.
There's a ton available to download there and they're annotated.
Hope this helps. :-)
Okay, I've done the job.
Provided you all the annotated master's games you could ever need.
So in reality, did the jobs of the 20 others you were hiring for too.
Just take care of my diamond for a year and you can keep the rest you owe for yourself.
Don't spend it all in one place.
Well, I hate downloading so sorry!
No need to be sorry...
I'll do the job of 21 now and you can cover 2 years of my diamond.
Go to ChessGames.com and you don't even have to download.
No excuses! You got what you hired for.
Now pay up!
I did not say 'hire' ! So, you'll be able to study master games at sengdao's forum's, there!
Pretty slick move there Sengdao. And here I was thinking I'd scored an extra income stream... Oh well, you win and lose some.
Sounds good mate.
I am always looking for new master games and also study old historic chess games. So i know many master games. Where is this forum?
Just click my name and click >>>Studying Chess Masters<<<! It's just the grand opening :D
My opinion is it is better to study your games rather than master games. Or anyone else's for that matter. I have it all spelled out in my free video lessons course, linked here on my profile. My group has many support systems in place, that's also linked on my profile. I do have a series on my own games, where I will show, game by game how I developed from a 1400 to a 2200 player. Two of those videos are public and linked in my video lessons fgroup forum.
One piece of advice that will probably do more to raise your rating than any course of study: dump the bullet.
Why do you hate downloading?
Blitz, too. In fact, at lower levels even Rapid (g/25) isn't a help.
Chess is a game of thought and planning. It takes time to learn and to play well. The only reason time limits of any sort were introduced was because some lesser players took advantage and used hours on single moves, hoping to win through attrition.
Fast time controls are fun variants, but they are fun because they are the exact opposite of what the game essentially is, they allow no time to reflect. As mindless entertainment it beats teasing the cat, but is no more likely to improve your understanding of chess.
Because I don't want alot of memory to be taken.
My upcoming simul a 2283 standard player!

I can't say enough about our incredible vacation. The house looked exactly like the pictures and the resort is beautiful. The owner, Shannon, was easy to deal with and always responded to emails quickly. We loved that we were close to so many restaurants plus the parks and downtown Disney! We can't wait to come back and will definitely be staying here when we do!
Home Away from Home
It was so great to walk in and see how nicely decorated and clean it was. Our daughter was so excited to see the picture of Cinderella's castle in a frame on the nightstand in her room. There were toys and books in the rooms and kid friendly items throughout the house and by the pool. The beds were very comfortable and the linens and towels were very plush. All the comforts of home were there and it was so nice to be able to relax and unwind there. It was nice going to Disney knowing we had such a nice place to go home to. I have recommended it already to several people and we hope to come back next year!

Jaide Becomes Trending Topic After School Bully Is Beaten Up In Viral Video [PHOTO, VIDEO]

By Amethyst Tate | February 2, 2013 7:34 AM EST
A fighting video went viral on Friday after a young girl, Jaide, tried to beat up an innocent girl in the locker room.
'Jaide' became a trending topic on Twitter soon after the video was posted.
The video shows Jaide trying to intimidate the other young girl, initially asking, "If I touch you, you gone hit me? [sic]" while putting her hand in front of the other girl's face. Jaide's friends proceed to encourage her to fight. When the fight begins, however, the bully, Jaide, is thrown off guard when she realizes her opponent can fight well.
Jaide is not able to even land a punch, as her friends stand around, surprised.
By the end of the video, Jaide is no longer as amused to fight the girl, but her friends continue to tell her to fight. At one point, when the girl leaves, one of Jaide's friends tell her to meet her outside and continue the fight.
Most people on twitter had no sympathy for Jaide, saying she deserved getting beaten up after trying to pick a fight with someone.
"I have no sympathy for that Jaide girl, how are you gonna try to bully someone, be surrounded by friends & still get beat up. you deserve it, [sic]" wrote @TiimzyHasAnEgo.
"How do you feel after the fight.....you probably don't want to experience that again huh?" @215_NuffSaid tweeted to Jaide.
According to Jaide's twitter account, both she and the other girl were suspended. Jaide was on probation before the fight even occurred, and is remaining on probation until next January.

World Bulletin/News Desk
A Libyan human rights group, the Libyan Observatory of Human Rights, has formally condemned the killing of a judge tasked with investigating the murder of a former army general who defected from the regime of former leader, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi.
The Libyan-based advocacy group has slammed the countries ruling interim government, National Transitional
Council (NTC), adding that they were responsible for Jumah Hasan al-Jazwi's killing.
Judge al Jazwi was shot dead, whilst on his way to pray at a mosque in eastern city Benghazi on Thursday.
The judge was tasked with investigating the murder of General Abdel Fattah Younes, who was killed last year.
Gen. Younes was one of the countries high profile individuals to have defected during the uprising and subsequent civil war, which resulted in toppling of Gaddafi.
The Libyan Observatory says that the NTC, currently governing Libya through its transition period, were purposefully delaying the investigation into the killing of Gen. Younes.
Younes, who had previously assisted Gaddafi is overthrowing King Idris and assuming power in 1969, defected to become the commander of the rebel forces to fight against his former close friend and leader.
He was killed in July 2011, with reports indicating that he was disliked by many and treated with suspicion, because of his former ties with Gaddafi.
Younes was killed soon after he recalled to Benghazi from the front line city of Brega. At the time, conflicting reports were given as to how he was killed, even by NTC leader, Mustafa Abdel Jalil.
Additional reports from Libya have indicated that al Jazwi had issued an arrest warrant for Younes last year, with many suggesting that al Jazwi was considered a suspect in Younes' death.

IRB to appeal 'unduly lenient' Thomson ban
ESPN Staff
November 21, 2012
All Blacks flanker Adam Thomson missed his side's clash with Italy due to a suspension © PA Photos
The International Rugby Board has confirmed that it will appeal what it strongly believes to be "an unduly lenient sanction" handed down to New Zealand's Adam Thomson for stamping or trampling on the head of an opponent.
Thomson was suspended for one week in the wake of the All Blacks' 51-22 victory over Scotland earlier this month. The blindside flanker was yellow carded during the game for his challenge on Scotland's Alasdair Strokosch but was also later cited and called to appear before an independent disciplinary panel.
Judicial officer Jean Noel Couraud upheld the citing complaint but viewed the offence to be at the lower end of the IRB's scale. That level of sanction demands a two-week ban but Couraud allowed one week of mitigation, "taking into account, in particular, the player's (Thomson's) conduct at the hearing."
The ruling provoked widespread anger with former England hooker Brian Moore describing it as "ludicrously lenient". IRB chief executive Brett Gosper repsonded to the criticism by saying that he would review the case that fell under the jurisdiction of the Six Nations Committee.
Having completed that review, they have issued a strongly-worded statement declaring their intention to appeal the ban in order to protect the image of the game.
"As custodians of Rugby worldwide, the IRB has a duty to protect its image, values and integrity together with the welfare of players at all levels in order that the sport can continue its unprecedented growth and welcome more men, women and children to the Rugby family," the statement said.
"At the very heart of this mission is the universal application of the disciplinary process as set out in Regulation 17. This IRB Disciplinary regulation is intended to protect all players and the Game through the strict application of a sanctioning regime that acts as a strong deterrent against acts of foul play.
"This stance was reaffirmed by leading international players, coaches, referees and administrators attending the IRB Morality Conference in London in March this year who unanimously agreed that a tough and consistent stance on discipline is key to Rugby's integrity.
"After careful consideration and having reviewed the full written decision in the Thomson case well within the permitted 72 hours of receipt, the IRB strongly believes that the sanction of one week is unduly lenient for this particular act of foul play and not aligned with the sanctions handed down in similar cases.
"The IRB firmly believes it is in the best interests of the Game and its integrity to exercise its ability to appeal the Thomson decision. The right of appeal by the IRB (in defined circumstances) and for Host Unions and tournament organisers was introduced into the revised Regulation 17 effective on June 1 this year to uphold the integrity of the disciplinary process in appropriate cases."
Thomson missed the All Blacks' victory over Italy last weekend but it currently available for their clash with Wales this weekend and the game against England on December 1. The IRB said arrangements for an appeal hearing will be announced shortly.
In a separate development, the Six Nations Committee announced tonight that Australia forward Rob Simmons has appealed his eight-week suspension imposed for a dangerous tip tackle on France flanker Yannick Nyanga.
Simmons was found guilty of the offence at a disciplinary hearing last week after being cited. The incident happened during Australia's 33-6 loss to Les Bleus in Paris on November 10. The appeal will be heard by a three-man, IRB-appointed committee, with a date to be announced.

21 September 2007
Schoolchildren from across Britain have taken part in a chemistry workshop at the University designed to encourage interest in the subject and address the growing shortage of scientists in the UK.
Some 350 A-Level pupils from as far as Southampton have attended the 'Uncovering Chemistry Secrets' workshop hosted by the School of Chemistry, with a further 150 participating in Bangor University where the project has recently been adopted.
The aim of the workshop is to help pupils understand the relevance of chemistry in the day-to-day world and get hands-on experience of the subject. With access to state-of-the-art equipment and instruments the students are able to perform their own exercises and experiments which are directly related to the chemistry A-Level curriculum.
Innovation and Engagement co-ordinator at the School of Chemistry, Peter Hollamby, said: "Through the workshops we're trying to get rid of the myths surrounding the study of chemistry and show people the relevance of the subject. Hands-on activities allow the pupils to find out what chemistry is all about, and hopefully consider studying the area further. Chemistry is a subject of strategic importance nationally, as is the need to excite and engage future generations of students. We hope that the workshops will inspire some of the students to pursue the area and become the chemistry experts of tomorrow."
Now in its fifth successive year, 'Uncovering Chemistry Secrets' was designed and developed by Peter Hollamby and Professor Peter Edwards of the School of Chemistry. The workshop has been fully subscribed since its inception and the numbers attending increase year on year.
Professor Edwards said: "The workshop shows chemistry in an enjoyable and informative way; a subject which is considered to be challenging becomes more attractive after seeing its relevance and wide reaching importance in our every-day lives.
"The practical laboratory experience that A-Level students need can sometimes be restricted as some of the techniques described at A-level are based upon expensive equipment no school can afford. Here at the University we can show students this equipment and how it operates giving a more rounded experience that is educationally much more valuable."
The workshop will come to a close today, 21 September, and another event is planned for next year.

Mariners lose lead, and game, to Orioles in 13th
The post-Milton Bradley era got off to a rousing start for the Mariners, full of thrills and chills, rallies, impossible escapes, and even...
Seattle Times staff reporter
Mariners @ Baltimore, 4:05 p.m., ROOT
BALTIMORE — The post-Milton Bradley era got off to a rousing start for the Mariners, full of thrills and chills, rallies, impossible escapes, and even a brief bench-clearing incident.
But not the one storybook ending that looked to have been written.
The newest Mariner, Mike Wilson, making his major-league debut after 10 years kicking around the minors, seemed to have come up the hero. Twice.
But the Orioles rallied for two in the bottom of the 13th off closer Brandon League to pull out a 7-6 win at Camden Yards. Felix Pie's one-out single off the glove of second baseman Jack Wilson tied it, and Matt Wieters' two-out single to center won it.
"A loss is always frustrating, but when you're battling, and you've played such a long game, and you ended up on top going into bottom of 13th, it's extra tough," said League, who blew his first save of the season after converting his first nine.
Wilson made a perfect throw to save the game in the ninth, and later delivered a broken-bat single in the 13th to put the Mariners ahead, 6-5.
Wilson, called up on Monday after Bradley and Ryan Langerhans were cut, made an instant impact after entering the game as a pinch-hitter in the seventh, first with his arm. He gunned down J.J. Hardy in the bottom of the ninth trying to score the winning run from second on Nick Markakis' single to left.
"It was a perfect throw," said manager Eric Wedge. "It was aggressive, under control. He did a great job of making a great feed to Miggy (catcher Miguel Olivo)."
Said Wilson: "I saw the play before it happened. I just reacted to it."
Then, in the 13th, after Jack Wilson had led off with a double to right off reliever Jeremy Accardo, Mike Wilson shattered his bat but punched the ball into left, just off the glove of shortstop Hardy, for his first major-league hit. Jack Wilson read the play perfectly and was running all the way, scoring the tiebreaking run.
"I was telling myself, 'Go ball, go ball,' " said Mike Wilson, who added that he would tape together the broken bat and present it to his mother, along with the ball.
"It came at a perfect time. I got an RBI with it, it gave us a lead in the game. It was good to get that out of the way. You can't ask for more than that."
The perfect ending, of course, would have been for League to wrap up the save after Aaron Laffey had wriggled out of trouble in the previous four innings — the last time with help from ex-Orioles closer Chris Ray. The Orioles, who stranded 16 in the game, had the go-ahead run in scoring position with less than two outs in the ninth, 10th, 11th and 12th, yet never could get the clutch hit they needed.
But in the 13th, Markakis led off with a single off League. After Derrek Lee struck out, Jake Fox singled him to second. Pie then tied the score with his hit, a grounder that ate up a backpedaling Jack Wilson.
After Fox was thrown out at the plate on Adam Jones' hard grounder to short, Wieters delivered his game-winner, a liner to center, as Pie easily beat Michael Saunders' throw home.
"It was a hard-fought game on both sides," Wedge said. "In the end, you figure one play was going to make the difference. Both teams were doing a good job of making plays. Both teams had an opportunity to win the game. But in the end, we just fell short."
Wedge said of the ball hit to Wilson in the 13th, which looked like a potential inning-ending double-play ball, "He has to come get it. He started backpedaling to the ball. When you do that, it's going to be a tough play. He had to come get that ball. If he does that, it's probably a different outcome there."
As it was, the Mariners lost their third straight game, despite rallying in the ninth inning to tie it on a two-out single by Justin Smoak off Orioles closer Kevin Gregg. Smoak was playing his first game as the Mariners' new No. 3 hitter in place of Bradley.
The M's also had a runner, Olivo, thrown out at the plate in the 12th, trying to score from first on Jack Cust's double off the scoreboard in right.
The benches cleared briefly in the bottom of the 10th after Baltimore's Felix Pie rammed into Smoak, who had fielded his slow grounder and was waiting to tag him. Order was quickly restored — the relievers were barely out of the bullpen before the field was cleared.
"He put his shoulder in me, and I didn't like it too much," Smoak said. "That was about it. We said something back and forth. It was two teams trying to do whatever they could to win — one of those moments."
The game had innumerable "moments" — but for the Mariners, a frustrating outcome.
