Hayley Caulfeild-James
Ferrum Bests Hollins
|Roanoke, VA - Hollins University Swimming vs. Ferrum College, January 17, 2014
The Hollins swim team was back defending their home pool on Friday night. The Panthers of Ferrum College came to Roanoke for a non-conference dual meet. It was a rematch of a November meet, won by the Panthers.
Hollins got off to a quick start by winning the opening event of the meet, the 200 Medley Relay. After just missing first place points in the next three events, Hollins broke through once again and took the 100 Butterfly with a season best time. Having to swim in back-to-back events eventually took its toll on a depleted Hollins squad and despite several season best times, Hollins fell once again to Ferrum, 72-123.
Amanda Young (Henrico, VA), Grace Iaquinto (Huntington, WV), Rachel Hertzler (Toano, VA), and Michelle Douglas (Chesapeake, VA) won the meet opening 200 Medley Relay. Iaquinto and Young each added a third and fourth individual finish later in the meet.
Hayley Caulfeild-James (Willow Street, PA) finished runner up in the 50 Freestyle then brought home third place points in the very next event, the 200 Individual Medley. Swimming her third consecutive event, Caulfeild-James covered the field by over a second in winning the 100 Butterfly. Her 1:14.20 time was the best 100 Butterfly time of the season for the first year swimmer.
Meg O'Brien (Chattanooga, TN) continued her strong J-term with another solid meet. O'Brien scored a second place finish in the 200 Individual Medley, a third in the 100 Backstroke, and another runner up finish in the 500 Freestyle.
Hollins will travel to Hampden Sydney to face Frostburg State on Saturday afternoon. It will be the second weekend in a row that Hollins will swim on back-to-back days.

Inputs for vegetable production and goat raising activities to ease the burden of Food and Livelihood Insecurity in Upper Egypt
In the last year, as a consequence of the social and political unrest in the Middle East Region, Egypt has been faced with a high number of returning migrants from Libya. These returnees who have mostly been supporting their families through remittances, are finding themselves in need of support with very little coping strategies. This is currently putting pressure to rural communities and families, resulting in a progressive increase in the vulnerability of the rural poor and, in particular, of the most at risks groups in society, namely women and youth.
The return of migrant workers from Libya exacerbates pressure on already weak labour market as households are forced to support and share limited resources with returnees. Further to this, many of the migrant workers find themselves in a situation without any real prospect of socio-economic integration.
As a timely action to mitigate the impact of these multifaceted challenges, FAO has undertaken a pilot project in Upper Egypt to empower returnees, their communities and families and strengthen, at the same time, the livelihood of poor and vulnerable communities affected by the increasing percentage of returnees.
The pilot project has provided agriculture and livestock inputs for farming and capacity building to promote income generation
activities for 120 households. This has enabled beneficiary returnees and local communities to rebuild their lives, and support the local economy. The capacity building provided has triggered an empowerment process that a big number of rural youth and women have been benefiting from. Many of them are now able to improve production efficiency and standards of their produce.
"I used to support my family by sending remittance when I worked in Libya. After the sudden return it was very difficult for me to depend on them. With the inputs provided by FAO I can now feed and support my family". Says Ahmed Mohamed, a young farmer from Gafar Village, Beni Suef Governorate.
"I am happy since the cost of buying inputs and renting land is very high. I feel I can stand on feet now!!"
FAO works to reach communities and families most in need, many of whom face the double burden of food insecurity and the volatility of the political situation in the region.
As Mohamed, many other returnees have been benefiting from the FAO project and from the capacity building activities with a cascade effect on more and more communities which share now satisfaction on the positive impact of the FAO intervention on their lives.

So you're tying the knot. Congratulations! But before you say "I do," have you and your partner discussed the financial realities of becoming legally wed? Romantic or not, now is the perfect time to discuss joining financial accounts and credit histories and merging your incomes from that of two singles into a shared household.
Odds are that you and your partner will be taking on some shared loans sometime in the future. Whether it's a home mortgage or a new car loan, your credit scores will have an impact on each other. Be upfront about any loan defaults, identity theft issues, large credit card balances or anything else that you don't want to come as a shock to your partner later on down the road. Now is a great time to take steps to make a positive impact on your credit score.
Many couples are very successful at opening joint checking and savings accounts right off the bat and making it work for both partners. But others want to retain a bit of financial independence by keeping their individual accounts intact. This is a major area you and your future spouse will want to discuss and reach a mutually satisfactory agreement. To some, reluctance to merge accounts may appear to be a sign of distrust. But from a practical standpoint, it's a good option for some couples. These days, many people have their accounts wired in for direct deposits, automatic deductions and all kinds of other purposes that makes changing accounts a headache. Another concern arises for couples on a tight budget. Having two people drawing off the same account can result in overdrafts and other unpleasant issues. A happy medium reached by some couples is to keep the individual accounts intact, but link the accounts and put both names on each one. Make this decision before tying the knot. You'll be glad you did.
If you and your future spouse are merging your separate households together, you'll want to discuss how the expenses are going to be divided. Couples with joint accounts often designate responsibility to one partner for paying the bills and managing the accounts. Couples that choose to maintain their own individual accounts often divide the expenses and pay the bills individually. It's important to balance income level with monthly expenditures, however, and be sure you are flexible if need be. Tying the knot makes you equal partners!

A little about me...
Hi I love animals,esp. dogs, love road racing, classic rock, being outdoors as much possible in warm weather! I like cooking out or just sitting in my swing. Even though I lost of my sight about 13 yrs. ago I can still tell a beautiful smile & give a warm hug! With that I've also learned to appreciate the simpler things in life such picnics quiet times, the enjoyment of time spent with someone special! A soft kiss, warm embrace, or just the soft brush of a hand can a lot! Needless to say I'm a bit of a romantic & still believe in Chivalry!
About the one I'm looking for...
I'm looking for someone for someone that enjoys things simple, that is beyond game playing (I think we've experienced it & know where it leads), loving, & be happy with themselves. If you like hand holding that's just great!
I'd just like to add...

Retirementology: Rethinking the American Dream in a New Economy
By Gregory Salsbury
"...Looking ahead to retirement? Depending on your circumstances and your age, you may no longer have any margin for error. And your emotions and irrational behavior could be perpetuating a dangerous cycle of overspending and rising debt that may shatter whatever vision of retirement you still have. Welcome to the world of Retirementology. Retirementology bridges retirement planning with investor psychology and the market Meltdown of 2008 to produce an entirely new way of thinking about how we spend, how we save, how we borrow, and how we invest. Financial mistakes are deeply rooted in human nature, but you may be able to overcome them--if you understand the breakthrough principles of behavioral economics and apply them in your own retirement planning.
"Dr. Gregory Salsbury identifies some of the classic cognitive biases and behavioral mistakes most of us keep making when it comes to retirement planning. For example: Why will people drive 45 minutes to use a $2.00 coupon? Why won't people sell a poor performing stock just because they inherited it from grandma? Why do people spend differently with a credit card than they do with cash? Why do people believe that they paid no income taxes because they received a refund? You'll learn why the financial meltdown has amplified the impact of these all-too-human cognitive mistakes and discover ideas for addressing them. The bottom line for your bottom line is that retirement can no longer be ignored, viewed as a single event, relegated to a 'zone,' or romanticized. Instead, you must understand how every spending and financial decision you make from here on can impact the way you will spend your golden years."

Good yellow cake?
- c
- curiousbaker Jun 4, 2007 10:01 AM
It's funny - I never make yellow cake. I make chocolate cake, nut cakes, genoise, but a plain, American-style yellow butter cake? No. I need to make one for a party next Saturday and was wondering if anyone had a particularly good recipe. (No Rose Levy Berenbaum, please.)
This is unbeatable:
Restaurant Eve's Cake [from Washington Post]
This simple recipe uses butter that is melted rather than creamed with the sugar, as in many recipes. Don't be afraid of overbeating it. Both the cake batter and the frosting require a good deal of whipping in order to incorporate the necessary air.
8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus additional to grease pans
2 cups sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 eggs at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk (may substitute low-fat or nonfat)
Frosting (recipe follows)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
Melt butter and let it cool to room temperature.
Combine the sugar, flour, baking powder and salt in the large bowl of a stand mixer. (A stand mixer is preferable for this recipe, though a hand-held electric mixer may be used.) On medium speed, add the butter, incorporating in several additions. Beat for about 2 minutes, or until combined; the texture should resemble cornmeal.
In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, vanilla extract and milk. Add to the flour-butter mixture in two batches (scraping the bowl once), and beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until smooth.
Distribute the batter evenly between the two prepared pans. Bake for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for 20 minutes. Remove cakes from pans to cool completely. Frost the cake. It can stand at room temperature for 1 hour; otherwise, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Serves 12.
This makes a generous amount of icing, so those with a not-so-sweet tooth may want to reduce the quantities or expect leftovers.
8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 pounds (7 1/2 -8 cups) confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream, (may substitute whole, low-fat or nonfat milk)
Food coloring (optional)
In a stand mixer on medium speed, beat the butter until fluffy. On low speed, add the sugar in batches, increasing the speed to high after each addition is incorporated. Scrape down the bowl as needed. Add the vanilla extract and cream in a steady stream on low speed until incorporated. Add a few drops of food coloring, if desired. (Restaurant Eve uses red to make pink.) Beat on high speed for 8-10 minutes, until light and fluffy.
re: KeriT
Ditto: Carol Walter's yellow cake recipe is superb, in comparison to many others, including Rose, whose is fine but not as good.
re: janeer
Have you made anything else from her book? I have yet to do so although I take it out on occasion and browse.
re: KeriT
Her Cream Cheese Pound Cake rocks. Highly recommend!
re: KeriT
Okay I compared this recipe with the Moist Yellow Cake from Epicurious and there are only two small differences - one less egg in Walters' version, and she uses 1 cup of plain milk, whereas the Epicurious recipe uses 1 1/4 cup of buttermilk. Otherwise, identical recipes. I like using buttermilk, because I like the tang and the acid can tenderize, so I'm using the buttermilk. Because I'm making a 1 + 1/3 batch (the largest that will fit in my mixer), I'm splitting the difference on the number of eggs. Walters also specifies a few things that are generally good practice, like using superfine sugar instead of regular and beating the sugar and butter for a very long time. I followed her cues. So it's in the oven right now, and I'll give y'all the report when it's been tasted (not until Saturday, I'm afraid - it's going in the freezer, because I don't have time at the end of the week to make it.)
re: curiousbaker
please let me know, I always love mixing recipes to come up with the ultimate; and I agree superfine sugar should be used, I prefer it in most cakes actually.
re: KeriT
They say this is it.
re: yayadave
This is the Carole Walter's cake we were discussing above.
re: chowser
Thanks - I've got The Best Recipe at home, so I can check that. At the moment, I'm inclined toward the "Moist Yellow Cake" from Epicurious, just because I tend to like baked goods that include buttermilk. But I'll check out the Best Recipe as well.
To julesrules: I think "yellow" cake and butter cake are pretty much interchangeable, although those called yellow cakes tend to be a little sweeter/lighter. More like a cake mix cake, really, though homemade tends to be a bit heavier and more buttery, without the chemically taste of box cake. I'm not really a fan of white cake/yellow cake/butter cake at all, so I usually avoid them, but sometimes you have to honor the birthday boy's request...
re: chowser
I love the one from The Best Recipe, too. Wonderful. A friend, who's unfortunately accustomed to box-mix cakes, ate it and declared, "Oh my, you can taste the butter and the sugar and even the eggs!" She said it reminded her of her grandmother's cake.
How does yellow cake differ from butter cake? I just realized I've never had homemade yellow cake...
I have been on quest for the perfect butter cake and finally found it a few months ago. It's from Fine Cooking as a base recipe for layers to use in a layer cake.
It's my Platonic ideal of plain cake - moist, and delicate crumb yet with more heft than a genoise (too delicate for me). I will paraphrase/post when I get home if you desire.
This one is a yellow cake, not a butter cake, and it is not made from scratch, but it is a family favorite...Light and delicious and very easy to make...Great with a chocolate, butter cream, or penuche frosting...The recipe can be found at www.runway.net/food/recipes/dream-cak...

The Story of Kalliope, Phoenix's Extraordinary Party Car
By Amanda Savage

How a Single Tweet Launched A Cloud for Climbing
By Troy Farah
By New Times
A call or package from local DJ/archivist Johnny Dixon is usually cause for celebration. The noted Arizona musicologist has an encyclopedic knowledge of the state's rich musical heritage and an ear for the obscure. While Dixon is usually touting the unknown, the most recent project he's connected with is a new concert album from Phoenix's preeminent country legend Waylon Jennings. The disc, The Restless Kid: Live at JD's, captures Jennings and band in top form during some of their regular gigs at the legendary honky-tonk in 1964 and 1965. As Dixon's authoritative liner notes point out, the club, once located near the river bottom on the Tempe/Scottsdale border, was an aesthetic rarity in the world of Valley nightlife -- a double-decker stage and dance floor built specifically to house Jennings' prodigious talents by promoter Jim Musil. If memory serves, the location is currently home to a futon store or waterbed outlet, instead of the protected historical site it rightly should be (the original JD's building, later renamed Scene West, burned to the ground in 1976).The cover-heavy set is at times stunningly intimate (check the audible intra-band banter on the opener "Just to Satisfy You") and equally raucous, especially on get-'em-dancing interpretations of "Memphis, Tennessee" and "Hi Heeled Sneakers." The disc features plenty of other stabs at early rock 'n' roll, including Jennings' takes on a pair of Roy Orbison signatures: "Dream Baby" and "Candy Man."
As one might expect, there are plenty of country standards included in the set, with Jennings favoring the work of twang tunesmiths like Harlan Howard ("Heartaches for a Dime," "Still in Town"), John D. Loudermilk ("Th' Wife") and Whisperin' Bill Anderson ("Alpha and Omega"), as well as traditional arcana like "Sloop John B," "I'm Gonna Marry Polly Ann" and "Streets of Laredo."
He also takes on Dylan, a fairly bold move for a hard-core honky-tonk artist at the time, considering that the Great White Wonder was just then raising hackles for "going electric" at Newport. But Jennings summons his best efforts for the lilting "Girl From the North Country" and a Johnny Cash-styled redux of "It Ain't Me Babe."
Jennings' original backing band, the Waylors -- longtime drummer Ritchie Albright, bassist Paul Foster and guitarist Jerry Groop -- aims for and captures the tight-knit Tele-kineticism that marked the work of Buck Owens and his Buckaroos, especially on Owens staples like "Excuse Me" and "I Don't Care." Still, Jennings' big pipes keep most of the focus front and center, as he showcases both the brilliant range and singular style that would earn him a contract with RCA and see him move to Nashville just a few months later.
Taken from never-before-released tapes recorded by bassist Foster, the album's release comes courtesy of Germany's Bear Family imprint. Last year the label put out a pair of multidisc Jennings boxed sets. The first, The Journey: Destiny's Child, is a compilation documenting his pre-1968 material (which includes a complete version of Jennings' debut album, Waylon at JD's-- actually a batch of early '60s Phoenix studio recordings). The second, Six Strings Away, chronicles his post-Arizona, pre-Outlaw period offerings. For those not in the habit of dropping two to three hundred dollars for exhaustive boxed sets, a more modestly priced (and sized) Bear Family collection is 1995's single-disc anthology Clovis to Phoenix: The Early Years. All of those selections and the new The Restless Kid: Live at JD's are available in stores or from Bear Family online at www.bear-family.de/.
Number Crunching: It's been a busy week for 4614, the local hard-core funk-rap combo led by former Bldg 5 guitarist Kevin Dye. First, they followed in the footsteps of local rap-metalers Bionic Jive by taping an appearance on the USA Network's music talent search program Farmclub.com. The group is also putting the finishing touches on its debut full-length, Cut Throat Logic. Reportedly, the band is shopping the disc, with interested parties including the DreamWorks label. In fact, the group is set to open a show for potential labelmate Henry Rollins at the Nile Theater this weekend (see the story).
The band will also shoot footage for a video during its June 17 performance with Oil at the Bash on Ash. Group members have been involved in a spate of side projects and guest work recently. 4614 mouthpiece Brian Hacker is set to work on a song with local boys Big Shot Allstars for its upcoming Mammoth Records debut. Meanwhile, guitarist Dye has lent his talents to a local hip-hop side project called The 10 Commandments, which features members of Underground Empire and Know Qwestion. The 10 Commandments, by the way, opened up a show for Def Jam rapper Jay-Z this past week in Philadelphia.
Mind Jam Traffic Report: The past few weeks have brought a deluge of calls about the annual Earth Mother Mind Jam. In its 10th year, the two-day event held in Flagstaff is being billed as an "independent multicultural art festival with a focus on sustainable living that celebrates the family and respect for Mother Earth. Seeking to create a better global community one community at a time." Right. While we could happily spend the remainder of this column making snide-assed remarks and wisecracks about wheat germ and basket weaving, we will instead use the space to expound on the festival's merits, of which there are many.

Planning Commission Tweaks UDAs
Following prescribed procedure, the Stafford County Board of Supervisors recently sent their tentative plan for allocating 4,000 Urban Development Area housing units to the Planning Commission to begin the Comprehensive Plan amendment process.
After about two hours of discussion last night, commission members had taken a few steps away from the supervisors' recommendation.
Most notably, commissioners voted 5-2 to eliminate the Brooke Station UDA from their proposed amendment. Concern was expressed over how it would effect schools, public utilities and the Virginia Railway Express. The Brooke housing units were moved to the Courthouse UDA. Commissioners Ken Mitchell and Gordon Howard were in favor of the Brooke UDA, and Howard said not supporting the Brooke UDA was "a huge mistake."
But it will be months before the Board of Supervisors ultimately approves a plan for the remaining UDA units. The Planning Commission will likely hold a public hearing on their proposed amendment–as well as the one sent to them by the supervisors–on or before April 1. Supervisors will then have a chance to take the commission's recommendation and change it as they see fit.

Written by Phil Guarnieri Thursday, 28 November 2013 00:00
Saint Paul had it right in Ecclesiastes: There is a season for everything. This timeless sentiment has nurtured and salted my objection to what appears to me an amalgamation of America's most cherished festivals and holidays. I don't want to sound peevish about this, cross or just touchy about things that bring people joy and happiness. But why is it that people can't celebrate the holidays in their proper and sequential order?
Is it necessary for us to hear "Jingle Bells" two weeks or more before Thanksgiving? It is not that I don't adore Christmas music; I just don't want to listen to it when I'm at the beach on a hot, summer afternoon. Orson Welles, in another context, once pitched a commercial saying, in a way only Orson Welles could, "That we will sell no wine before its time." The holiday season, just like good wine, should observe a timetable that will bring out the full flavor of its effervescence.
Abiding by this protocol is a matter of aesthetics and tastefulness and should not really be such a self-denying proposition. As I observe the cosmogony of festive occasions that appear in the months of October, November and December, it is clear that they are not separated by such orbital distances that we must celebrate them either prematurely or concurrently, as is now happening with Thanksgiving and Christmas, or risk missing them altogether. No, Halloween,
Thanksgiving and Christmas can be spaced apart at decent intervals and still allow us to fully savor, perhaps even more so, their respective blessings and convivial diversions. To do otherwise, given history and tradition, is an ill-mannered cultural usurpation.
It must be counted as one of the paradoxes of human nature that while we are always complaining about the winged bird of time, the inexorable swiftness of the days, we are often impatient with how slow the day is moving. These two opposing feelings struggling to be paramount is what the philosophers call "cognitive dissonance" and is no doubt the cause of these storms of bewilderment and anxiety that often afflict us as we scramble amid the daily rush and tumult. Forbearance has long since ceased to be a virtue these days; indeed the modern psychosis of instant gratification is perhaps the most conspicuous staple of our self-indulgent age. We have to possess things instantaneously as evidenced by the insanity that breaks out on those long, winding, serpentine waiting lines that materialize whenever Apple introduces a new iPhone.
There are, of course, other factors that have invited this irrepressible hastiness into our lives. When I was a child, Halloween was a rather minor event, not exactly trivial by any means, but nothing like the gargantuan revelry it has morphed into. One no longer needs to rummage through the dark recesses of the imagination to conjure up images of ghosts, goblins and headless zombies; one only needs to gaze out on the neighbor's front lawn to see a menagerie of horrors staring back at you.
As for myself, I've always been somewhat subdued about Halloween; the charm of trick or treating exhausted itself by the ripe old age of 10 and this weariness has lingered on, which may account for the singular lighted pumpkin that graced my real estate this past October 31. This is not a criticism of the season's more ostentatious displays, since some very estimable people revel in the merriment of the macabre. It is only to underscore that the copious exuberance for Halloween combined with the onset of an ever earlier Christmas has led to an attenuation of Thanksgiving, perhaps the most quintessential of American holidays.
So the question is not, at least for me, a matter of ostentatiousness but of seasonal apportionment, whereupon one festival holiday does not rudely elbow out the other. One can be as evangelical as they like in promoting their favorite holiday provided one is respectful of the chronological boundaries of the others. Traditionally, my place of residence is inclined to cultivate the accoutrements of the Christmas season, when our home becomes delightfully transfigured in the light and color of the season, although we refrain from decorating until after Thanksgiving and obsequiously relinquish the furnishings of the season by sunset of January 6, Little Christmas. The sleds, the bells, and the crystalline lights that twinkle amid the cold and sometimes frosty nights are an indelible part of the joyousness of the season. There is always a touch of sadness in extinguishing those lights; as if Santa Claus had taken a razor to his cherubic, red cheeks and decided to go beardless.
The trappings of Halloween and Thanksgiving barely survive a day longer for us as we make room for the next fete. But this is never accompanied by sadness, because the season of peace and goodwill beckons around the corner. So this is by no means a remonstrance of overdoing any particular holiday, but an invitation to live in the moment and to enjoy the season that is with us rather than hurriedly revving up our engines for the next.
I must, however, confess that despite all of my heartfelt implorations to my beloved readers this last paragraph, alas, had to be quickly revised when I discovered that my dear wife, 10 days before Thanksgiving, had unbeknownst to me, and to my utter disbelief, adorned our hedges with large, red Christmas bows serving as a rather pointed repudiation of everything that I just wrote. I suppose that before I began pontificating on the impulsiveness of the world, I should have taken the temperature of hearth and kin. Maybe I should have just said, "To each his own" and left it at that.

Leaks were detected in at least six underground storage tanks of nuclear waste in Hanford, Washington State. Authorities have requested additional federal aid for cleaning the place, according to AFP.
"There is no immediate risk to health concerning the leaks we just found. The tanks are located at a distance of five miles (about eight kilometers) from Columbia River," said Inslee, after a meeting with U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu on Friday in Washington.
"However, the news is worrying for all state residents," he added.
Governor pointed out that Steven Chu informed him last week of possible leak on a tank. But Chu admitted that his department had not analyzed properly the information which could have revealed additional leaks.
"This raises serious questions about the 149 tanks containing mud and radioactive liquid in Hanford," added Jay Inslee.
"I think we need new procedures for emptying old vats and I am pleased that the Department of Energy already examines new ways to accelerate the process," he added.
Hanford nuclear plant is located about 300 kilometers southeast of Seattle. Originally it was used to produce plutonium for the manufacture of two nuclear bombs dropped on Japan in 1945, which ended the Second World War.
Subsequently, the production of the nuclear facility grew during the Cold War, but the last reactor was closed in 1987. "The production of nuclear weapons left solid and liquid waste that pose a risk to the local environment", particularly the Columbia River, it reads on Hanford site.
Federal and state authorities have made an agreement in 1989 to clean the facility and the 177 tanks that are part of it.
French group Areva, associated in the facility management since 2008, has revealed a little different statistics talking about 170 cells containing approximately 200,000 cubic meters of chemical and radioactive waste.
Governor Inslee asked federal authorities to act quickly to ensure that some budget cuts do not affect the measures taken to clean the system.
Department of Energy (DoE) confirmed, in turn, leaks to six nuke waste reservoirs.
"There is no immediate health risk. Energy Department cooperates with Washington and other partners to solve issues related to these thanks," said Lindsey Geisler, a spokeswoman for the department, without specifying the exact nature of the substances leaking from the containers.

Disappointment has often followed excitement
Missing the playoffs was a travesty no doubt, the Bucs probably would have done some damage in the opening round, and may, just may have been lucky enough to sneak out another win too. But that is not to be, and I'm here to tell you, that's probably a good thing in the end.
History has shown us that young teams almost always have a let down a year after experiencing some success. Our past here in Tampa Bay is proof enough.
Immediately after the magical 1979 season, the Bucs proceeded to produce a 5-10-1 stinker in 1980 in which they were ranked in the bottom half of the league in defense!
1997 marked the return of the Bucs and Pewter Power, but 1998 was an 8-8 season of promise that ended with a shutout win on the road, but a win one week too late.
The Bucs could not find the same fire in 2003 after amassing 12 wins and a Lombardi Trophy the year before.
Even our Tampa Bay Rays aren't immune; they missed the playoffs the year after making it all the way from Worst to World Series!
2011 should be different; these Bucs are young, and that is a concern, but they had the season end in an "unfinished business" kind of way. Their hunger and fight will probably just intensify during the off-season .
So while it may make for a boring January, 2011 should end up with a pivotal September-December to remember.

For those who thought this would be one more act of Lance Armstrong defiance -- one overhyped, Oprah-enabled song and dance -- the 90-minute interview Thursday night had to be disarming.From the opening questions, a preamble for which Oprah Winfrey said she only wanted yes or no answers, to Armstrong's final, uncomfortable words about the friends he betrayed, this was a confession, not a plea for mitigation.Yes, said the seven-time Tour de France winner, he used banned substances to enhance his cycling performances.Yes, Armstrong said, he used erythropoietin (EPO), blood doping, cortisone and human growth hormone, even though for most of the past 16 years he had denied it all."I know the truth," he said in the televised interview, "and the truth isn't what I said."The second half of the 21/2-hour session, taped last week in an Austin hotel room, is scheduled to be telecast tonight on OWN, Oprah's network.It would be difficult, though, to top the riveting 90 minutes that were shown Thursday.This wasn't Winfrey doing her best heart-to-heart impression of her buddy Dr. Phil. Nor did it come across as Armstrong trying to do a verbal soft-shoe on someone who didn't know a bike chain from a strip of tree bark.On the contrary, Oprah proved herself to be a quick study both of Armstrong's career and of the messy web in which he has tangled himself.Why now, why publicly confess now, she asked him?"That's the most logical question," Armstrong said. "I don't know that I have a great answer."This is too late, probably, for most people, and that's my fault."I view this situation as one big lie that I repeated a lot of times."He chose not to name names. The only fingers that Armstrong pointed seemed to be directed at himself.Seeking to explain his motivations for using performance-enhancing substances, Armstrong said: "This story was so perfect for so long. I mean, you work on the disease, you win the Tour seven times, you have a happy marriage, you have children."It was this mythic, perfect story, and it wasn't true on a lot of levels."The fairy tale, once told, simply got out of hand from there, Armstrong claimed."Beyond that picture, there is momentum," he said, "and I lost myself in all that."I couldn't handle it. It controlled every outcome in my life. And now the story is so bad, so toxic."Armstrong said it was his early belief -- that performance-enhancing substances were rampant in cycling and that a rider couldn't win the Tour de France without them -- that led him to rationalize using the drugs."I didn't invent the culture," he said. "But I didn't try to stop the culture, either. And that's my mistake. I didn't have access to anything that nobody else did."Behind the cheating was what Armstrong described as a "ruthless, relentless, win-at-all-costs attitude."It made him a bully. It made him defiant in the face of even his strongest accusers. It also made him think that he was above the rules.Armstrong painted a picture Thursday of a sport that was so corrupt, blood doping and EPO use was like "putting air in our tires or water in the bottles."Did it feel wrong, Winfrey asked?"No, and that's scary," Lance answered.Did you feel bad for doing it?"No," he said, "even scarier."Did you consider it cheating, Oprah asked?"No, and that's the scariest," Armstrong said. "I didn't view it that way. I viewed it as a level playing field."He saved his harshest words, however, for himself."I am flawed," Armstrong said. "Deeply flawed. And I'm paying the price for it. And that's OK. I deserve this."I see the anger in people, the betrayal. They have every right to feel betrayed."I will spend the rest of my life trying to earn back the trust and apologize to people."His 90 minutes with Oprah on Thursday were a good start.Lance Armstrong can be a compelling, disarming personality.Which, I suppose, is how we got to Thursday night in the first place.Gil LeBreton, 817-390-7697Twitter: @gilebreton

Rampart Shooting Range in the Pike National Forest will remain closed at least through the winter. It was closed last July after a man shot and killed a friend while they were unloading guns at the range northwest of Colorado Springs.
A report released this week by the El Paso County Sheriff's Office indicated the shooting was not a result of poor design at the range.
The National Forest Service has had a plan in place since 2007 to make improvements on the range, which is the only non-commercial shooting range on Forest Service land on the Colorado Front Range. The plan was written by the National Rifle Association.
Planned improvements include clean up, new signs and fencing to keep lead out of nearby Manitou Creek. The report also suggested a full-time manager for the range. That may be accomplished through a partnership with a non-profit recreational group, but it will take some time.
According to John Peterson, Deputy Forest Supervisor for the Pike National Forest, that won't happen until next year.

Find a recipe for every occasion
Picked in association with Waterstone's, this cookbook comes from the UK's most successful chef who brings Michelin-star glamour to pub grub.
Scores of pubs lay claim to the 'gastro' prefix, whether they deserve it or not, but Gordon Ramsay's gastropub was always going to be a cut above the rest. When The Narrow opened in 2007, critics bedgrudgingly acknowledged Ramsay's refusal to fail at anything, and two more pubs opened in the following year.
Now, with the help of his right-hand-man and top drinking buddy Mark Sargeant (who runs the pubs when he's not being a head chef or appearing on Market Kitchen), Gordon reveals the secrets of perfect pub grub in this enticing new book.
This is a homage to simple food made great. Take the pork dishes, for example. The porky treats that sweat beneath Cellophane in grotty pubs are brought squealing into gastro-land: Scotch eggs are lovingly, properly prepared and sausage rolls are reinvented by the use of wild boar. There are even recipes for home-made pork pies and pork scratchings.
In the idealised pub this book envisages, the crisps are fresh from the fryer, and the pickled eggs…well, they're quail's eggs. For anyone who's drawn to bar snacks, but wishes they weren't quite so horrible, this book will come as an exciting revelation.
The mouthwatering snacks continue in 'Savouries with toast', a whole chapter devoted to little plates of Scotch woodcock, potted shrimp, devilled kidneys and Welsh rabbit – which are all surprisingly easy to prepare.
The enticing index of mains is divided into categories like 'Catch of the Day', 'Comfort Food' and 'Grills and Sautés'. Cooks looking to emulate the food at Claridges or Pétrus will be better off with one of Ramsay's other books, but for everyone else this book is full of homely, comforting, achievable food, made great by the flourishes of a culinary talent whose restaurants have won him a total of 14 Michelin stars.

Govt to make second appeal to overturn High Court solar ruling
The Government is to set to make a second appeal against a High Court ruling which said that its decision to lower solar feed-in tariff payments was illegal.
The Government lost its first attempt yesterday after the Court of Appeal rejected energy secretary Chris Huhne's claim that he had the power to go ahead with the scheme.
In a statement after the appeal was rejected Huhne said that the Government disagrees with the decision and is now seeking permission to appeal to the Supreme Court.
He says: "We have already put before Parliament changes to the regulations that will bring a 21p rate into effect from April for solar PV installations from 3 March to help reduce the pressure on the budget and provide as much certainty as we can for consumers and industry.
"We want to maximise the number of installations that are possible within the available budget rather than use available money to pay a higher tariff to half the number of installations. Solar PV can have strong and vibrant future in UK and we want a lasting FITs scheme to support that future and jobs in the industry."
In November, the Government announced it was bringing forward the date for its reduction in feed-in tariffs to December 12, 2011, rather than in April 2012 as previously planned and 11 days before the consultation ended on December 23. Friends of the Earth argued this change with little notice was unlawful.
Under the proposals, solar panels installed post December 12, 2011 receive reduced FIT payments. For new residential units up to the 4kW band the rate was reduced from 43.3p per kWh to 21.0p per kWh. The proposals lead to some EIS and VCTs withdrawing offerings or considering changes to product mandates.
Friends of the Earth, which brought the challenge alongside two solar firms, has called on the Government to introduce a plan to reduce solar power payments in line with falling installation costs, rather than prolonging industry uncertainty and jeopardising jobs by pursuing an expensive legal appeal.
