Quick hits: Week 1 of prep football in EV, southern Arizona
Quick observations from first full week of football in East Valley and southern Arizona while I continue to dry out from steady, but not heavy rain last Friday:
Chandler, playing its toughest opening-night opponent in a decade fared quite well with a 41-21 thumping of Centennial. Bryce Perkins, the Wolves junior quarterback debuted with 314 yards of total offense. A pretty even split rushing and passing.
Ironwood Ridge, ran its record to 2-0 with a 35-27 victory on the road at Cienega. Always a tough, competitive game -- this one didn't disappoint. Ironwood Ridge off to a good start as defending D-II champs with pretty much an entirely new lineup on both sides of the ball.
Valley Christian gave a good account of itself in debuting for new coach Jeff Rutledge. The Trojans fell to defending D-V champ Northwest Christian, 19-13, up at NAU. Playing the defending champs out of the gate is a tough go, but the VC did more than expected. It took a NWC TD pass with three minutes left to provide the Crusaders their margin of victory and overcome a 13-12 deficit.
Mesquite won the battle of new coaches with its hard-fought 10-3 triumph over Gilbert. Mesquite and Jim Jones and Gilbert and Tim Rutt played solid defense as the final tally indicated. Both need more output on the offensive side going forward.
Campo Verde (2-0) finished strong last season and has demolished its first two foes this season -- Goldwater (46-0) and Catalina Magnet (56-6). The rise to D-II is going good so far for the Coyotes, although Goldwater and Catalina are D-III schools. Better tests to come.
Queen Creek (2-0) leaped two divisions and came away from D-I Highland with a 21-14 victory to run its winning streak to 16 games dating back to last year's D-III title season. Queen Creek has been relying on strong defense to keep its streak alive, but it didn't hurt that running back Matt Guida turned in a pair of nifty TD runs. It proved Guida is a quality back at any level, if that was at issue at all.
The state's D-I powers went out of state and fared nicely in winning and losing. Defending D-I champ Hamilton toppled Eastlake (Chino, Calif), thanks to a fast start, 28-17. Basha had its way with Green Valley (Henderson, Nev.), 41-17, due in large part to quarterback Zach Werlinger (373 yards passing) and running back Rajhan Meriwether (four TDs, 2 rushing, 2 receiving). Desert Vista and Desert Ridge were defeated by quality foes in tight games. Desert Vista took a 13-0 loss to Mission Hills, Calif. and Desert Ridge bowed to nationally-ranked Junipero Serra (Gardena, Calif), 28-22. Desert Ridge trailed 28-6 at halftime, but made a game of it in the second half.
Combs High made a successful debut with new coach Jesse Hart, topping Globe, 9-0. Wins have been hard to come by at Combs so all are welcome. This is Combs fourth year of varsity football and last Friday's win as its fifth at that level.

Recipe by RUBYJI
"This is a simple preparation that lets the sprouts speak for themselves instead of masking with another flavor. You may be surprised, but if you listen you'll hear them saying 'I am yummy!'
Makes a great side with turkey or tempeh."

Really a great way to fix brussels sprouts! Sometimes I use lemon-flavored sea salt and add bacon bits for added flavor. I have baked this mixture in the oven at 350 until done with same results. Thanks RUBYJI...love your recipe!
I really liked this recipe, and I don't even care for Brussels Sprouts! My husband loves Brussels Sprouts, and he really enjoyed these tonight. The simplicity of this recipe will make me try them again. They were served with 'Mimi's Slumgullion' from AR, homemade applesauce and bread sticks. Thanks, RUBYJI for sharing your recipe.

Seriously, you compare things that are not comparable (entire Java methods VS simple lines of Python, this is ridiculous). Who cares about the "System.out.println" verbosity (in NetBeans, simply type "sout" + TAB) ? Java is: one of the (maybe the, with C++) greatest and biggest ecosystems; very good IDEs (NetBeans, eclipse, etc), a very popular language; a lot of servers, new features (look at Java 7 and 8 VMs) etc. In addition, there are the JVM languages (if you prefer, they are Python killers, like Scala ^_^).
pdolega replied ago:
Exactly. Plus some of the examples are really broken - i mean no one is creating list with elements in Java as it is shown in the example. Really this one is poor. ,
talvik replied ago:
So it boils down to java requiring class definition and main method... There are much more important differences between Python and Java to be tackled. But all I've seen is: "ZOMG. Java takes 6 lines for a hello world!!!11!"

About this title: Recent decades have been marked by the decline or collapse of one fishery after another around the world, from swordfish in the North Atlantic to orange roughy in the South Pacific. While the effects of a collapse on local economies and fishing-dependent communities have generated much discussion, little attention has been paid to its impacts on the overall health of the ocean's ecosystems. In a Perfect Ocean: The State of Fisheries and Ecosystems in the North Atlantic Ocean presents the first empirical assessment of the ...

"Steeping" by Gordon McAlpin
Saturday, November 22, 2014
A short experimental film I made for schoolz. (Mostly) shot in 240 fps slow motion on an iPhone 6. Edited with Final Cut Pro. There are a few shots I'd have liked to redo if I wasn't under the gun for a deadline (and hadn't run out of tea), but… oh well.

So I am about to brew a batch using Coopers Selection IPA. It says that is pre hopped. Would it be worth while to boil it for 15 minutes after the hot break with some hops for added aroma? Or will there be plenty of hops aroma and flavour already? Also how many grams of hops pellets would you use for a standard 5 gallon batch?
like unionrdr said, its pre-hopped. Boiling or even heating that up a lot will just remove any hop flavor. You just want to warm that up a little so it's easy to pour into the water. Those Coopers cans are basically just a concentrated beer, add water to them, aerate, add yeast and let ferment

- Publisher: Lo-Fi Games
- Release Date: Nov 21, 2011
- Summary: Kenshi is an independently developed single-player RPG focusing on open-ended gameplay features rather than a linear story. Touted as a sort of squad-based Oblivion spliced with X-Com Apocalypse, players control a team of samurai characters in a massive desert world, adventuring around and getting stabbed, such as RPG characters tend to do. Starting off with just a single weak character with a rusty sword and no shoes, the player can work his way up through a number of professions to develop a team of hardened warriors powerful enough to influence or even oppose the more powerful factions in the world.… Expand

Oct 1, 2013This was one of the best games i have played in a long time currently being worked on by several devs it was designed by one guy till recently. Updates are steady and updates do not contain many bugs, sound is being worked on along with females, clothing, and other game play features. You can create a town, a army, and more. You can be a bandit, established faction leader, Mayor, or just a simple merchant… Expand
Nov 28, 2013When I first saw this game, thought it was gonna be a M&B: Warband clone, only in a Asian setting, and that sounded great. But what this game is, is so much more, or at least potentially.
You create a character in a post apocalyptic fuadal japan-ish world, and from there your on your own. You can be a merchant, thieve, docter, shop owner, start your own town/outpost, craft your own weapons and armor, build different kind of fuctional buildings, research technology to build/craft even better stuff. You can train in fighting, recruit an army of any size, and control and train each person individually. Well you get the idea...
At first the game had sub-par GFX and no sound, but bear in mind it was still in Alpha (and still is), the graphics keep inproving immensely, and there is sound now. On top of that new major features keep being added every couple of months.
In its current state (29/11/2013) the game is allready very enjoyable, so buy it now while i'ts still in it's Alpha pricing $20.… Expand
Jan 31, 2014I keep this short & clean. Pros - Much of play styles - Able to compensate hard situations with simple tactics & mind play. - This game is the only one I've ever came cross with, and I find this very unique and potential game.
- Good & tough world with no "OP" setup to go with.
- I find this game atm balanced.
- Price/Content rate is ridiculous, so "cheap" for such a big amount of content which is updated constantly
- And the most valuable thing for this game: Freedom to do what you want.
- No quick travel
- Unique "leveling" system
- Full customization over squad members
- It can be frustrating (atm) to aggro constantly bandits (if there are many) which are recovering from critical blows after fights, as you & faction aggro them. (If they(=bandits) are assaulting ie. npc city)
- Can be little bit lagged sometimes to move around the global map and get stuck somewhere. (often between heights and low environments)
- Random crashes are annoying if you haven't saved frequently.
- Enemy AI can sometimes feel shabby.
Anyways cons are minor things, which can be fixed anytime soon
I have much of things to say, but I suggest this for anyone seeking unfair adventure for glory & pride.… Collapse
Sep 29, 2013This game is in Alpha stage, and is unfinished and unpolished as of right now. (which is completely natural considering its current development stage) So why a 9/10? That doesn't make sense does it?
I disregarded:
-bugs, glitches etc
-lack of content that is announced.
and focused entirely on its potential and current playability:
If i had disregarded potential as well, i would have to drop it to 7/10. 100+ hours of fun in this state, deserves at least that.
Why i like it:
It's a squad based RPG in a sandbox environment. And its highly mod-able. Yeah sure there's limited stuff to do in the game, as of right now, but new content are added regularly. The feeling of freedom is great in this game.
Want a new outpost, so you can trade with the trade caravans? Alright, better go pick up some slabs of stone and start building.
Want to run around killing bandits? Then do that.. Just make sure you're ready for a fight. You might want to scavenge a few fights between the holy order, samurai lords or bandits first.
Want to befriend the bandits? Run around healing the bandits after they get crushed by an enemy.
Want to fight a faction, go right ahead.
Finding the end game a bit easy? Go mod in your own faction of bad-asses and look at them rip apart the world.
If you're put off by the early access, don't buy it and wait.
If you don't want to buy a game based on its potential, then pick it up if it drops its price a little and you feel comfortable paying for it. It's still enjoyable in it's current state, especially if you like tweaking stuff.
Which leads me to the last bit:
If you like to modify and tweak game mechanics etc, and the game concept intrigues you. BUY IT. I sincerely doubt you will regret it.… Expand
Jun 25, 2014There are hours of entertainment to be had here. Still lacks content, and a but buggy, but if you can see past that it's fantastic. I can't wait for the final product.
Definitely worth the money.… Expand
Mar 25, 2013A unpolished, unfinished product that is currently being sold for "early access" (aka cash grab), Kenshi advertises itself as a "open ended, sandbox, squad based strategy."

With a strong storyline, a stunning and expansive world, inspired level and mission design and a hefty amount of time required to see it through to completion, inFAMOUS is an essential PS3 release.
The audio in inFamous is incredible, especially when piped via HDMI to a capable 5.1 receiver.
inFamous is a type of game that doesn't come around often enough and is easily one of this year's strongest titles.
It is not "Fable" and it does not try to be, it just takes these elements and combines them with some others to create very fun videogame, with its own personality and a well-achieved and told story, perfectly integrated with its gameplay. A more than recommended buy.
Despite its rough edges and somewhat lacking story, inFamous manages to grab the player and offer a compelling and action filled gameplay experience that surpasses most other super hero games out there.
For everything Infamous does well there's a counter-balance of agitating design decisions.

VitaliV.May 28, 2009More like 9.5. Overall an awesome game. Some minor flaws such as enemies half stuck in the wall after being defeated. What was most surprising is the fact that you can't mindlessly jump in the middle of a group of enemies and expect to win which is often the case for these types of games. While the the choices for karma are obvious it is really tempting to use the evil side. Game is really enjoyable and from what I heard there are different cut scenes for both sides. So far I have not encountered any major slowdowns and/or glitches. Really a must buy if you are a fan of the genre and even if you're not definitely give it a try.… Expand
ThomasM.May 30, 2009This is a fantastic game. While it doesn't do anything new or innovative, what it does do is mold a very fun open world game, with super powers with some difficulty and the choice to be good or evil and actions within the game can change. The game isn't perfect, far from it, but this is a solid title and exclusive for Sony users. It has some cool additions and reminds me a little of spiderman 2. Games are meant for fun, and this game is so fun I haven't stopped playing it since I bought it. Very addicting.… Expand
Jul 3, 2011One of the few superhero games, that actually made me feel all "giddy like a school girl". Infamous is also one of the few games that I replayed a few times, which I consider a shining recommendation of its brilliance.… Expand
TylerH.May 27, 2009Its a fun game. Not perfect, graphics are well done, but could have been better in certain areas. Some definite repetition, but its integrated well enough with the plot and your powers to be completely tolerable. Environment is great with everything climb-able, fantastic cut-scenes, and a pretty good plot for as far into the game as i am. 3 islands, each fairly large. This is a definite must-buy, if for whatever reason afraid about purchasing, at least give it a rent... or you'd be missing out on a truly fun game.… Expand
May 13, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A game that is throughly enjoyable from start to finish, no matter what path you choose.
In inFamous, you play a messenger known as Cole McGrath. After a freak explosion, which caused Cole to gain electrical related powers, you go on a journey throughout Empire City to find out the truth on why this happened to you. I really like the comic book layout when it is displayed through various cutscenes, as it gives a true sense that this is a 'superhero' kind of game. One of the main factors that I really liked was the whole Karma system. The Karma system throughout the game, is where certain decisions you make in the game, affect your appearance, the colour of your electrical powers and how characters react to you. Basically you can either be hated upon, or looked upon as a hero in the eyes of the stricken city. The Karma system gives more depth and realism to this sort of game. Instead of just being a straight forward game, where you just have to play as the 'hero', this game gives you the choice. You can help the citizens of Empire City or restrain or kill the citizens.

A group of Kansas youngsters is finding out what it might have been like traveling hundreds of miles across wide expanses of prairie in the 1800s.
More than 85 fifth- and sixth-graders are in the third day of a 12-day journey across Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and New Mexico on a whirlwind tour of the Santa Fe trail. Camping in tents overnight and sharing chores such as cooking and cleaning, participants say they are getting a hands-on experience similar to what early pioneers might have gone through.
All except the air-conditioned bus, of course, that takes them from stop to stop.
The trip has been offered every two years since 1985, and organizers say it builds an appreciation of history the students will someday pass on to their own children.

Wealth Check: Getting rid of costly card debt the first step to building a deposit
Jennie is keen to start saving for her first home, but our experts say she will struggle until she sorts out and prioritises her various debts
Saturday 17 August 2013
The patient
Jennie Davies, from Bootle in Liverpool, is keen to clear the debts she's built up so she can start saving for a house deposit. The 28-year-old works as a test analyst and earns about £27,000 a year. She has been in this job for three years.
Jennie lives at home with her grandparents, but she hopes to take the first step on to the property ladder in the not-too-distant future.
"I'm hoping to buy a three-bed home in Liverpool for around £125,000-£150,000," she says. "But I know I'll have to save hard to make this happen as I've only got around £1,500 in my current account with NatWest, so I'm essentially starting from scratch."
The biggest obstacle at the moment is her debts. "I owe £3,500 on two credit cards: one with Barclaycard and one with Capital One," she says. "I also owe £10,000 on a loan with NatWest, and £15,000 on a student loan. In addition, I've run up an overdraft of £1,500 on my current account. These are debts which I mostly amassed while travelling – and I really want to get these paid off quickly so I can concentrate on building up my savings."
Jennie is in the fortunate position of not having to pay rent or a mortgage as she lives with her family; she contributes £250 a month towards the household bills.
As yet, Jennie has not begun paying into a pension. She also has no protection policies in place.
The cure
Our panel of independent financial advisers agree that getting on to the property ladder can be extremely difficult for young people in Jennie's position, with house prices having risen and lenders more reluctant to lend.
They urge Jennie to focus on paying off her debts so she can start saving seriously for a deposit. They add that while it may not feel like a priority at the moment, the sooner she starts paying into a pension, the better.
Focus on reducing debt
Adrian Lowcock at Hargreaves Lansdown says Jennie needs to settle the debts on her cards, bank loan and overdraft as a priority.
"The higher the interest rate, the greater the urgency with which Jennie needs to pay off that debt," he says. "Credit cards are usually the most expensive, but they require the smallest monthly payments. Loan rates are likely to be lower, but the minimum repayment will be higher."
Consider consolidating debts
Mr Lowcock suggests Jennie may want to look at consolidating the credit card debt into the bank loan.
"This would save her money in interest payments," he says.
"She could also ask her bank about making overpayments on the loan. Equally, if the rate on the overdraft is also high, it may be worth consolidating the overdraft into the bank loan as well. The reduction in interest payments will free up some cash which she can use to repay her debts more quickly."
As an alternative, Patrick Connolly at AWD Chase de Vere suggests that Jennie could get better terms by moving her credit card and loan debts elsewhere. Useful sites for comparing rates include MoneyFacts.co.uk and MoneySupermarket.com.
"She should then look to pay off her overdraft," Mr Connolly says. "However, paying off the student loan is far less urgent as Jennie will be paying a lower rate of interest on this loan. She can leave this on the back-burner for now and let this clear naturally through her payroll as her income increases."
Build up savings
Mr Lowcock says that while it's admirable that Jennie has saved £1,500, she would actually be in a better position financially if she used this money to pay her debts off first.
"She may be earning little over 0 per cent on money in her current account, yet paying a hefty rate of interest on her credit cards," he says. "In this situation, there's no point have both savings and debt."
Once Jennie's got her debt under control, her next priority must be building up some cash savings.
"She'll need cash for two reasons," says Mr Connolly. "Firstly as an emergency fund so she has money available for any short-term requirements; this will help her avoid having to go any further into debt. Secondly, she will need savings to build a deposit."
When Jennie is in a position to save, Mr Connolly urges her to build cash savings in an individual savings account (Isa).
"This would separate her savings from her day-to-day current account money, and all interest would be earned tax-free," he says.
"Jennie could also look to set up a regular direct debit from her current account into a cash Isa to help her get into the savings habit. In addition, she should look to boost her income by making use of a cashback site such as Quidco, as this will give her money back each time she makes purchases online."
Plan for a deposit and other house-buying expenses
Dave Penny from Invest Southwest suggests that when it comes to taking the first step on to the property ladder, the Government's recently announced Help to Buy mortgage support scheme could be worth considering.
"This would enable Jennie to buy with a deposit of just 5 per cent – meaning any deposit in excess of £7,500 should give her the opportunity of buying a house in her desired price bracket," he says. "With the right discipline, she could reach this goal in around three years' time."
Nonetheless, Mr Connolly reminds Jennie that she can't start saving for a deposit until she's sorted out her debts. "And if she ends up needing a deposit of 10 per cent – or more – this could mean further years of saving," he says. "At the same time, Jennie needs to give some forward thought to her day-to-day expenses as having her own place will be considerably more expensive than paying £250 to live with her family."
Don't ignore pension planning
While saving for the future may not be Jennie's most pressing financial objective at present, given that she is now 28, this is something she simply can't ignore.
"The sooner she starts saving, the easier it will be for her to achieve a reasonable standard of living in retirement – or to be able to retire when she wants," says Mr Connolly.
Mr Penny urges Jennie to check whether her employer offer a workplace pension.
"If the firm doesn't do so already, it will have to do so in the very near future under a scheme known as auto-enrolment," he says. "With this scheme, not only will Jennie have to contribute, but her employer and the Government will have to make contributions too. Jennie should take up this offer when it becomes available."
Once she's completed her house purchase, Mr Penny advises her to think about increasing the amount she pays into a pension.
Delay investing for the time being
Jennie can afford not to put money into investments for now, according to Mr Connolly.
"Her focus must be on paying off her debt and building cash savings before looking at making longer-term investments," he says. "When she is in a position to invest, it might be sensible to consider tax-efficient stocks-and-shares Isas and to invest in these for the long-term. This will work well alongside her auto-enrolled pension scheme."
Take out decent protection policies
Mr Penny says there is no point in Jennie making big plans if it all goes wrong beforehand, and urges her to check what protection benefits are available from her employer.
"She should then consider an income protection policy which pays a tax-free monthly benefit if the policyholder is off work, until retirement, recovery or death," he says. "But as Jennie does not have any financial dependants at present, she does not need life cover at this time."

Originally written on Mets Merized Online | Last updated 11/15/14
I know it's early, but the promising start to the 2012 campaign for Mets former top prospect Wilmer Flores is extremely encouraging. He was ranked at the top of the organization in recent years due to his hitting ability and future potential, but did not live up to the hype on the field. So far this season he is showing that maybe all that talk of him being a big time hitter was accurate and the recent lack of production was just part of his growing pains. Wilmer is absolutely raking for Single-A St. Lucie. I know it's only A ball, but he has been at that level for a few seasons now and it's about time he started to figure it out and earn himself a promotion. Despite hearing about him for the past few seasons and watching his stock drop as he did not progress through the ranks in the Mets system as many had hoped, he is still just 20 years old. Flores has a world of potential offensively and he is finally starting to give the Mets a return on their investment. Here are his numbers ...

Christina Aguilera was honored this week for ... hey, her eyes are up here, Hillary!
Earlier this week, while President Barack Obama was getting drubbed in a debate with Mitt Romney, the U.S. Secretary of State was honoring The Voice judge.
Not just for her curve-tastic body, either, despite the photo below suggests:
Clinton was on hand for the 11th annual George McGovern Leadership Award ceremony, held at the U.S. Department of State, and Xtina was an honoree. Why?

For months, the San Miguel County Commission has been considering whether the Sheriff's Department should use Tasers.
Last week, the commission held a public hearing on the electroshock weapon. Sheriff Benjie Vigil invited several other sheriffs; speaking for them was the director of the New Mexico Sheriffs and Chiefs Association, Jim Burleson.
Burleson's message was simple: The sheriff should decide whether to use Tasers, not the County Commission.
I would like to offer some of my reasons for opposing consolidation of the East and West school administrations. First of all, I finished my elementary education in West Las Vegas in 1947. At that time, few of the kids from West Las Vegas would attend Highlands High School. Some of the West kids whose families could afford it attended Highlands High School or the I.C. Catholic School. ...
A few weeks ago, a political observer told me that he was hearing reports that Mayor Tony Marquez wouldn't run for a second term.
I didn't really believe that at the time. Marquez is a relatively young, ambitious guy. Why would he voluntarily relinquish his throne?
Of course, the mayor won't show his cards about his plans for next year. He won't even return my calls or e-mails.
Marquez works in Santa Fe, so people around here don't see him much. He's removed from the town he leads.
I am a West Las Vegas High School graduate class of '81. I currently find myself serving my 27th year in the U.S. Navy in Kuwait. I am asking for your help in contacting my classmates for our upcoming class reunion in 2011. We are trying to get everyone on Facebook so that we can get the ball rolling. I live in Denver, Colo., but won't be back until May 2010. If plans don't change. My e-mail is email@example.com.
Thank you for your help.

When it comes to fairness and consistency, the city missed the mark in its recent handling of how to allocate lodgers tax proceeds.
In July, the council approved a request to give $15,000 to Albuquerque company Fresquez Productions to promote a boxing fight featuring Holly Holm in Las Vegas. The firm's owner, Lenny Fresquez, didn't have to show up to answer any questions.
thumb UP for ... GOING ONLINE. Luna Community College students can now register online, and officials say that this may already be helping to increase enrollment. It's really a no-brainer to have this service; greater efficiency in the admissions process will make education more accessible to all.
Besides, most students are younger, and they live and breathe the Internet. As such, a school without online services seems archaic to the younger generation.
If Robertson High School's 2009 Homecoming is any indication of what the school year is going to be like, we are in for a great year!
How long do you think it will take for the Rail Runner to serve Northern New Mexico? This is the question I asked Gov. Bill Richardson, after I visited the Rail Runner when it came to Raton and Las Vegas in July.
In my opinion, one of the governor's greatest accomplishments has been the Rail Runner. My understanding is that the original plan was to have the train go all the way to Raton. When the train visited in Las Vegas, I learned that New Mexico has purchased the rail line from BNSF.
