BU Men's Soccer Team Announces Home Game Promotional Schedule
Bearcat scarf also available for all men's and women's soccer season ticket holders
August 27, 2014Tweet
Contact: David O'Brian (firstname.lastname@example.com)
VESTAL, N.Y. – The Binghamton men's soccer team has announced its home game promotional schedule for the 2014 season.
On Monday, the athletic department will hold its Welcome Back BBQ for all student-athletes at 4 p.m. at the Events Center. Immediately following that event is the Bearcats' 5 p.m. home opener against Marist.
Binghamton's game against Army on Sept. 10 will feature a tribute to all military personnel. Other home games will honor BU faculty & staff (Sept. 23 vs. Syracuse) and the university's international students (Oct. 22 vs. Columbia). Details for all three of those games are still in the works.
The Bearcats will continue their support of the Red Card Cancer program at a pair of games this season (Sept. 13 vs. Cornell and Nov. 1 vs. Stony Brook). The match against Stony Brook will also serve as Senior Night.
On Oct. 4, the Bearcats' America East opener against Hartford will serve as youth and team poster night. A Youth Day Clinic will also follow Binghamton's Oct. 11 game against New Hampshire.
The game against New Hampshire has been moved to a 1 p.m. kickoff to accommodate Family Weekend at Binghamton University. In addition, it will also be a SUBWAY "Pack the House" game.
This year's Homecoming game takes place on Oct. 18 against Vermont. It marks the fourth time since 2008 the Catamounts are the Homecoming Opponent. All three previous meetings have been decided by a single goal.
"We are thrilled with the home promotional schedule," head coach Paul Marco said. "Overall, I think our department has done a very good job with it. We are looking forward to putting a good product on the field with an entertaining, fast style of play. We hope our home fans will really appreciate it."
In addition to the single-game promotions this year, Binghamton has created a season ticket package for both the men's and women's soccer teams. A $20.00 season ticket comes with a Bearcat scarf to be used as an admission ticket for all men's and women's regular-season home games.
"What a terrific idea to have the scarf this year," Marco said. "Our marketing department has come up with a great plan to boost the season ticket sales. It is a staple in the soccer world. Every great club in every country has a scarf. I am very happy we have unveiled our season ticket and scarf at the same time."

The maker of soft drinks, Frito—Lay snacks and Quaker cereal also cut its 2011 earnings forecast. Shares fell nearly three percent in premarket trading.
PepsiCo Inc.'s fourth—quarter net income fell five percent because of higher costs, despite a surge in revenue due to acquiring its bottlers.
The maker of soft drinks, Frito—Lay snacks and Quaker cereal also cut its 2011 earnings forecast. Shares fell nearly three percent in premarket trading.
Net income fell to $1.37 billion, or 85 cents per share, matching analyst expectations, according to FactSet. That's down from $1.43 billion, or 90 cents per share, last year.
Revenue rose 37 percent to $18.16 billion, helped by acquiring its two biggest bottlers. PepsiCo sold nine percent more of its products.
CEO Indra Nooyi sounded a cautious note for 2011. She says consumers remain pressured by high unemployment and costs for raw materials are expected to remain high. Competition, especially with rival Coca—Cola Co., remains stiff, and Pepsi's numbers suggest Coke is taking business.
Still, the company expects buying its bottlers and its $3.8 billion acquisition of Russian food company Wimm—Bill—Dann Foods will help results.
Pepsi now expects earnings per share growth of seven to eight percent. It previously forecast growth of 10 percent to 11 percent.
Pepsi's Frito—Lay snack division volume rose slightly. PepsiCo Americas Beverages volume rose one percent.
For the full year, net income rose six percent to $6.32 billion, or $3.91 per share, from $5.95 billion, or $3.77 per share last year.
Revenue rose 34 percent to $57.84 billion from $43.23 billion a year ago.
Rival Coca—Cola Co. said on Wednesday fourth—quarter net income more than tripled on the acquisition of a bottler and stronger sales of its drinks worldwide.
Shares fell $1.62, or 2.5 percent, to $62.80 during midday trading.

A word from La Bottega - Vail
La Bottega has been a mainstay for both locals and tourists alike since 1997. Having started as a sandwich and deli operation, La Bottega has grown into one of the top destinations for dining in the Vail Valley. La Bottega offers authentic Italian cuisine with the Chef Stephen Virion having worked in Tuscany and the Veneto regions of Italy. His wife, Elisabetta, is from Asiago, Italy and has crafted the wine list to compliment the cuisine. La Bottega's Wine Bar is a great place for apres ski or to just have a glass of wine with friends from our award winning wine list. Of course our famous sandwiches and our stone oven pizzas are still a big draw. At La Bottega there is something for everyone so as to make your dining experience enjoyable.Continued

- Off season diningLocalVailDined on 11/6/2014We love going here for dinner & what a treat to have a discount during the off season. The menu was limited, compared to their regular menu. I was fixed on having their Milanese, which was not offered. I did have the fruita de mar app for my entree, which is always good. I thought the ceasar was not up to their normal standards.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- must have been an off nightJillnancyVIPDined on 8/4/2014I've been eating at this restaurant for years but last week it was lousy. The pizza tasted like it came out of a box and the pasta was gooey. Not sure if there is a new chef but they most def need to get back to where they used to be.
- Great food!OpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 8/2/2014This is one of our favorite places to eat in vail. Food is always good. The service this time could have been much better but we would still go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing!!!Mags1739Dined on 8/1/2014My family goes to Vail every August and we always make a point to stop at La Bottega. The food is AMAZING. We crave it all year and it always meets expectations! Service was good, and atmosphere is wonderful.Special Features:
- The following 298 reviews are from the La Bottega - Vail reviews archive.
- Not so greatOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/30/2014Been here several times in the past, and those visits have been much much better. We were there to celebrate a birthday and honestly so disappointed. The goat cheese appetizer that has been great in the past was awful, the sauce was like tomato soup! The lobster ravioli should have been called garlic ravioli, the mussels were so spicy, almost too spicy to eat. The service was very unattentive and almost rude. With all the other wonderful choices in Vail I wish we would have celebrated somewhere else!Special Features:
- Outdoor patio diningBeardiesRuleVIPDined on 7/27/2014Nice spot to have a quick meal with our grandkids. Greek salad with seared Ahi was delicious. Bowl of mussels also excellent, but Margarita pizza disappointing (no sliced tomatoes) just sauce, cheese & basil. TED sandwich (Thanksgiving Every Day) also disappointing since I never visit Vail without eating one. It just wasn't up to usual deliciousness. Sangria was great.Special Features:
- Count on it!OpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 7/10/2014Always a first stop when visiting Vail. Great food and service.Special Features:
- DeliciouslocalvailDined on 7/4/2014The food was fabulous, the first table where we were seated was much too loud, especially for a group of 5 one hard of hearing, we were reseated and it was much better.Special Features:
- Very good meal.martyVIPDined on 7/3/2014the staff went out of their way to accomodate us as we arrived about 2 hours before our reservation (we were tied and hungry and wanted to see if they could fit us in) and they did!Special Features:
- You are on your ownseethedolphinsVIPDined on 6/17/2014Service was poor from the moment we got there. Party of four, reservations, arrived early enough to sit on the patio. Servers seemed confused about what to do with us! We did our own seating. After waiting a while for our wine, we started to relax, then asked for bread. It eventually showed up -- three pieces for four people -- math is hard! We asked for additional pieces. And asked. Eventually decided to go ahead and start -- how surprising it was hard and stale. Lunch leftovers maybe? So around the fourth or fifth go-round we did get some warm soft fresh bread. Of course, by then entres were on the table. OK, so bread isn't the end of the world and the entres were OK. But server attitude really sets the tone.Special Features:
- Nice dinner after the season.JohnVIPDined on 4/21/2014Season had just ended in Vail and there were not many restaurants open. We had a very nice meal at La Bottega, good food, great service, and very nice people. My veal Milanese was very good and well seasoned, but slightly over cooked. Regardless, we had a nice evening and would go back.
- Excellent food + great ambiancePrg311VIPDined on 4/13/2014This restaurant never ceases to be one of the most enjoyable restaurants to visit in Vail. Each season, we make it our unspoken requirement to dine here at least once. It's because of its delicious food and it's always amazing ambiance that this restaurant greatly distinguishes itself from all the others, both must-sees when in Vail.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Cozy, yet refined ItalianphllysweetDined on 4/5/2014I am Italian and from Philadelphia, where quality Italian food is easy to come by. However, since moving to Colorado, I have yet to find an authentic Italian restaurant. La Bottega not only had the perfect ambiance, but the food was also delicious. The baked goat cheese appetizer and the lobster ravioli are delicious! We finished off the night with tiramisu, which was perfectly light and creamy along with the Biscotti vin santo, a tuscan favorite of mine.Special Features:
- Cozy and the well thought out menujillFDined on 4/1/2014The decor and ambiance was great and the Italian menu was well thought out. The lobster ravioli was delicious and the beef carpaccio with a truffle cream sauce was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Better go to Olive GardenEmilioDined on 3/25/2014Made a reservation at 6.45PM. Showed up at 6.20 and told the guy at the desk if he could sit us early. He grumbled something and then proceeded to sit us.... there were many empty tables.... should have taken that as a signal. We asked for two appetizers and 5 main courses. The appetizers were fine... especially the Burrata salad. The pastas were terrible. Everyone left at least half their plate. The reality is tha the place, although located in prime real estate (Vail) it could barely cook italian better than your average cheap chain. At the end they show up with an 18% "optional" service charge... Spent almost $300 on bad italian for the family.
- Last year I came to have dinnerGillDined on 3/24/2014Last year I came to have dinner at La Bottega and had a wonderful experience, when I looked at the reviews I was a little concerned that it was not the same. But the food and service was fantastic. Actually, better than last time.We will return again with no hesitations. Highly recommend!Special Features:
- Pleasant surprise!TenneesseeJulieVIPDined on 3/24/2014Food was great! Worth the money we paid. Drinks are slightly overpriced. We will return for dinner the next time we are in Vail.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was not good- meals cameOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 3/21/2014Food was not good- meals came cold and not very tasteful.Special Features:
- A staple for every Vail visit!McForkleDined on 3/16/2014We go to La Bottega every year when we visit Vail - great comfort food, good wine and consistently good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing Experience!WonderfullyRomanticVIPDined on 3/14/2014The night started out with a hitch as another group of five individuals "stole" our table by telling management that they were us! Well, they were NOT us--a little upsetting (for all involved). Without missing a beat, the manager told us (in no uncertain terms) that he would "handle the situation!" In a matter of seconds, we were given the best seat in the house! The appetizers were amazing. The salads (Josephine and Caesar) were fantastic! The main courses (wagyu ravioli with truffles and lobster ravioli and salmon) were all wonderful. However, possibly the best part of the night was the outstanding service from Zizi. He recommended the world-famous tiramisu! Loved this experience. We will be back next time in Vail!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Double thumbs downVailDined on 3/11/2014Dont go to this restaurant. It was terrible! It may offer pizzas, but at Vail there are so many other options. You lived learn.
- old saladLillyDined on 3/10/2014I had the Greek salad with Salmon. The Greek salad was old except for a side of greens right out of a supermarket bag with no dressing, Salmon was overcooked and not the freshest tasting. The soup was not good either. Our waiter was playing the disappearing act a lot. So we ended up asking other waiters who were all helpful.
- AverageMichaelDined on 3/5/2014We made a reservation weeks in advance and when we arrived the stuck us in a back room in a cramped corner. And there were 2 other tables in the small rood with screaming children. The other section of the restaurant had a much better atmosphere and we felt we missed out on a major part of the attraction of the restaurant. So we sat in a cramped corner in the crummy part of the restaurant with screaming children. We will not go back.
- Nice and quiet upstairsrbpsDined on 3/5/2014We ate in the upstairs dining room for the first time and highly recommend it as a quieter and less busy room. The food was excellent, as always.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Would not recommendChuckDined on 3/4/2014A $40 bowl of pasta w/ truffles should be good. WRONG! Pasta, not the truffles, was so dry I sent it back , 2nd time it was worst! DON'T go there. Other had a so-so meal
- Food was great, service wasrbpsDined on 3/2/2014Food was great, service was acceptable but we didn't get the impression that our server really was focused on ensuring our satisfaction and enjoyment. Seating at the café tables is awkward and the noise level in the bar was rather high, but the good food offsets those aspects of the dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- food was goodgoodVIPDined on 2/28/2014despite the fact that it closes at a certain time and I've heard bad reviews from the locals about the owner the this was one of the better places we ate at in Vail. Much better than Campo and less expensive too. We stayed across the street and really enjoyed everything we ordered. Def will go again when we get back. Best part is it closes so early that you can still go to a bar afterward.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great atmosphere and delicious foodDeliciousDined on 2/21/2014A wonderful evening with delicious food! The decor and the cozy tables and bar seating give La Bottega a neighborhood bistro feel. The noise level is rather high, so this is not the place for a romantic evening out. We chose La Bottega based on the variety of its menu and its convenient location in the heart of Vail Village. We were not disappointed! The presentation of the all dishes we ordered was impressive, and the desserts were a special treat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- most accommodatingangieDined on 2/21/2014The service and the food quality was outstanding! The staff couldn't do enough for you, anything you asked for you received even if something was not on the menu they prepared for you and to your liking. !!!!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good enough food, mediocre serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 2/18/2014Maybe it was the night we were here, but we had to choose our wine 3 times because they were out of whatever we asked for, then they were out of one of the diner's dinner choice. Did our server have no idea when the order was placed? Had to ask numerous times for requested things like drinks, wine bucket, more bread/ breadsticks. Food was fine but not outstanding and annoying dining experience, especially for the guy paying the bill!I would recommend this to a friend.
- DelisiosoMadioochDined on 2/17/2014Ate here last here on our trip to Vail. Only problem was that it was our last night and could not return for a second night! We weren't going to let that happen this year....love the seat at the brick oven bar but it can be hot. They have a great wine list, huge salads, great pasta dishes and yummy entrees. My 16 year old son always gets the spaghetti and meatballs and my husband loves their Dover sole. Last year I had the spaghetti carbonara (very memorable) but this year had the immense bowl of mussels that I watched Caesar make right in front of me! Spectacular! If we can carve out the time we will most definitely return this week and,if blessed to make it back to Vail again, on our next visit! Also, their pizzas are not to be missed!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best restaurant in vail!!Debbers18VIPDined on 2/16/2014Best food and a lot of fun , very energetic !!! Hot spot in town, not to be missed!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mediocre at bestOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 2/14/2014Started off with a "bang" when hostess threw down menus at a bar table because she did not like the that I asked for a regular table and not a high boy at the bar against a cold window. The bread was nothing remarkable and the linguine and clams was dry and was not memorable. My wife had overcooked cannelloni in that the pasta portion was down right hard. Eventually another hostess came over and apologized for the first hostess...I asked the waiter his opinion on the selected entrees and he said great to everything I asked...obviously they have not eaten their own food.

Thanks guys for all the feedback, no rush though as son numero uno still isn't here yet. I feel if I would to have an Evander, Zinnia and Rafferty that if i had a fourth child they would need to have 3 syllables, and im not sure i really want to limit myself and my next favourite girls name is Laurel.
I get what your saying @valentine but my thing with Lennox is that im 90% sure i pronounce it wrong, i perfer len-knox as to the actual way len-iks which is frustrating. I get that Huxley has the trendy -ley in it, but i find it more modern than trendy, not sure why.
I see that its is between Huxley Oliver and Rafferty Hugo mainly, but i can't cut any off yet, any more opinions?my joy, Felix Rafferty (9.2013)

A science fiction blog featuring science fiction book reviews and with frequent ramblings on fantasy, computers and the web.
The 2014 inductees to the Science Fiction Hall of Fame have just been announced!
Congratulations to:
I haven't watched The Simpsons in a very long time, over a decade at least. But this clip, where the animators pay homage to legendary Japanese animator/director Hayao Miyazaki makes me want to watch tonight's entire episode, at the very least. There are so many references to Miyazaki films that the 1:24 running time seems to just fly by. Well done!
If by some chance you haven't seen any of Miyazaki's films, good grief stop reading and go get Spirited Away to start with. You won't be disappointed!

As a paid up member of the geek squad, there are two animation studios that I naturally revere above all others: Pixar and Studio Ghibli.
Studio Ghibli is, I don't suppose many folks round here need telling, the spring from which such wonders as Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke and (personal favourite coming up) My Neighbor Totoro have flowed. As I understand it, its origins can be traced to the success of a much earlier film, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, which was an adaptation by Hayao Miyazaki (subsequently one of Ghibli's co-founders) of his own manga.
I've never seen the film version of Nausicaa (I'd quite like to now – I assume it's worth a watch, but maybe someone can confirm?), but I gather it's a somewhat slimmed down version of the story told in the manga. That's easy to believe, as said manga covers a lot of ground. Ground that's so strewn with the themes, preoccupations and tropes that pervade Studio Ghibli's later output that it feels completely convincing as the seed from which that great tree has grown. It almost feels as if all Miyazaki's subsequent filmic output is hidden here in the pages of Nausicaa, in embryonic form.

Since we did Kiki's Delivery Service last week, let's keep the Hayao Miyazaki theme going with the 1984 post-apocalyptic film Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind:

Fun and (some) sun on the French coast
October 20, 2014 § Leave a comment
Now that we are just days away from fall break, I find myself thinking back wistfully to the wonderful week we spent in France at the end of August. We rented a house with friends in the small town of Le Pouliguen, in the Loire-Atlantique department and just along the southern border of Brittany. It boasts (along with the town next door, the ritzier La Baule) some of the widest sandy beaches in France. But it also has la côte sauvage—the wild coast—consisting of rocky coves and tide pools and dramatic, windswept vistas. Add to this wonderful daily markets, charming towns, scenic bike rides (even if a little heart-stopping with the kids), and the most incredible chocolate cake on the planet, and we all wished we were staying for longer than a week (even if our clothes couldn't expand enough to keep up). « Read the rest of this entry »
Almost annual apricot jam
September 6, 2014 § 5 Comments
I've made a batch of apricot jam every summer except one (when I missed the short season during which apricots are available in New York) since I moved into my own apartment in Brooklyn, in 2001. Even last year, when we arrived in Brussels at the end of June and had a few other things to occupy our time (like unpack our entire household), I couldn't resist the beautiful specimens I saw at the outdoor market. They were from Provence, and were perhaps the best I have ever eaten: sweet, juicy, and heavily perfumed. I bought 5 kilos. I quickly realized that, of all the decisions regarding the many mounds of stuff I either gave or threw away in preparation for our move, one of the few I regret was getting rid of my Ball canning jars. I thought it would be silly to bring two or three boxes of empty glass jars halfway across the world, so I listed them for free on Craigslist—and must have gotten close to fifty responses.
I figured I could find some canning jars here fairly easily, but with a very large box of ripe apricots and no luck finding any jars in our new neighborhood, I decided to store the jam in the freezer. I had never done done this before, and I was happily surprised with the results (though I shouldn't have been surprised because my mom makes delicious strawberry and raspberry freezer jams). But I like the act of canning. It requires a blank slate of sorts. You must clear the counters and submit to an almost surgical mise-en-place. You have to slow down and focus on nothing else for that period of time in order to correctly execute each step of the process. And at the end, you have a stack of pretty jars to eat yourself (I mean share with your family) or give away. « Read the rest of this entry »
Summer lovin' (happened so fast)
August 21, 2014 § 2 Comments
It's less than two weeks before back-to-school around here, which means another summer is almost over. I also know this to be true because yesterday we were up at 4 a.m. following our return from California to Brussels, and after an ill-advised 3-hour nap in the afternoon, the boys were still up playing at 10:45 last night. You'd think this was the first time we'd done this! They were both great travelers, even though they only slept for two hours (total travel time: 23 hours). Our highly anticipated nearly five-week, bicoastal trek is now behind us.
It's not easy being so far from family and friends (and believe me, California especially does feel far). There is not enough time with the former, and it's impossible to find a way to see all of the latter. And yet we feel very lucky to be here: experiencing a different culture, having so many opportunities at our fingertips. While travel possibilities should not be understated, some of my greatest joy of living in this place at this time comes from watching our kids find their legs in a new country. On a practical level, I love that they are soaking up a new language. But they are also (hopefully) learning that they are adaptable, that there is a big world out there and they can make their way anywhere in it, that leaving what is familiar to you isn't always easy but it is worthwhile—and, often, fun. (Of course our embrace of all things different still leaves room for cursing local quirks such as mind-boggling bureaucracy and stores' odd opening hours.) « Read the rest of this entry »
Chocolate cake for a rainy Wednesday (+ recipe!)
June 11, 2014 § Leave a comment
On Wednesdays, school in Belgium lets out at noon. This might seem like a cushy deal (for the kids anyway), but in my experience Wednesday is the craziest day of the week. There's the mad dash home for lunch, persuading the youngest and soon-to-be-grumpy member of the family to take a nap, and then waking him up prematurely (and grumpy) in order to get to whatever activity has been signed up for. So on a recent gray and rainy Wednesday it didn't take too much complaining of some probably make-believe malady to convince me to skip the activity for one day—and make a chocolate cake instead.
Not just any chocolate cake, but one made with olive oil. It's based on this recipe by Nigella Lawson, which I came across recently. I made the version that uses flour instead of ground almonds. I used a little bit less sugar and mixed all-purpose and whole wheat flours. Unsurprisingly for a chocolate cake from Nigella, it is delicious. It's very moist, and while the olive oil taste isn't at all overpowering, you can tell this cake is a little different. And because we all know how good cocoa is for us, I think this could even be considered almost healthy, right? (RIGHT?)
Nigella says to beat the eggs, olive oil, and sugar until they are a "pale primrose" color. Is this right? I actually have no idea what color primrose is.
Have I mentioned how in love I am with my covered cake plate?
Here's the recipe (in metric, but you can search online for cup equivalents):
Chocolate Olive Oil Cake
- 50 g good-quality cocoa powder (sifted)
- 125 ml boiling water
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 125 g flour (I used all-purpose and whole wheat)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 150 ml olive oil
- 200 grams sugar
- 3 large eggs
- confectioner's sugar for sprinkling
Preheat oven to 325°F/170°C. Grease 9-inch springform pan with olive oil.
Measure and sift the cocoa powder into a bowl, and whisk in the boiling water until you have a smooth, still runny (but only just) paste. Whisk in the vanilla extract and set aside to cool. In another smallish bowl, combine the flour with baking soda and salt.
Put the sugar, olive oil, and eggs in a large mixing bowl and beat vigorously for about 3 minutes, or until you have a pale primrose, aerated, thickened cream. Turn the speed down and pour in the cocoa mixture. Once it is all incorporated, fold in the flour mixture.
Pour the batter into the pan and bake for about 35 minutes (Nigella says 40–45 minutes, but mine was done sooner), or until the sides are set and the very center, on top, still looks slightly damp. Let cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack, and then ease the sides of the cake with a thin spatula and remove it from the pan.
Off to Lille
June 2, 2014 § 2 Comments
There are so many places to visit a mere stone's throw from Brussels, sometimes it's hard to decide where to go next. So it took a deadline of sorts to get us to Lille, just over the border in France and a little over an hour by car. I'd been eying an interesting-looking museum, LaM (Lille Métropole, Musée de l'art moderne), which was having a soon-to-close exhibition on Meret Oppenheim, the Surrealist artist and muse to the likes of Man Ray and Marcel Duchamp. (Unfortunately, her famous teacup wasn't on view.)
There are only a few galleries of permanent collection on view, so it's really about seeing whatever temporary show is on. The museum buildings themselves make for an interesting approach—one part of the structure is made up of squat brick buildings, and the other white cubes with delicate cutouts—and you are also greeted by some great outdoor sculpture. We were caught in an absolute downpour on the walk from the car, which quickly gave way to sunshine alternating with cloud-filled skies (hence the fact that these photos look like they were taken on at least three different days).
I would love to see these buildings at night, when they glow like lanterns.
and an impressive Calder stabile/mobile. (Note sudden lack of menacing clouds!)
A Daniel Buren cabane éclatée was a source of fun…
Stuffed toys in the shape of France seem pretty interesting.
The Sunday market springs back
May 5, 2014 § 2 Comments
Oh how we love the Sunday market in our commune of Watermael-Boitsfort. And if we forgot that just a little bit over the winter (even though it was about as beautiful a winter as we could ever hope to have), it is now abundantly clear once again. You can get everything here: fruits and vegetables, cheese, bread, flowers, rotisserie chicken (be prepared to wait in line), fresh pasta, quiches, cured meats, fish, nuts and dried fruit, candy, plants. There are specialized stalls for poultry, beef, pork, and lamb. You can stop for a glass of wine. You can buy socks. I could go on.
It's not a farmers' market per se—you can buy pineapples and lemons and bananas—but it is seasonal nonetheless. And when a particular item is in season, it's everywhere. It being the height of spring there is of course a lot of choice right now, but there is no doubt that the current stars of the show are strawberries and asparagus.
I usually do a couple loops, partly because I get a little turned around and partly because I like to see what's on offer before plunking down my euros. Thankfully the stands stay in roughly the same place from week to week. Come with a list if you must, but be prepared to find yourself leaving with more peonies than you can carry, a hunk of comté, and the first apricots of the season, because you just couldn't resist.
Two Cornwall gems, Stonehenge, and a cool little castle
April 28, 2014 § 2 Comments
There is far too much to see and do in Cornwall to even scratch the surface in a week, but you have to start somewhere, right? And one thing was clear: we had promised the boys castles, and there would be trouble if we didn't deliver. So we sort of stretched the truth and told them that Lanhydrock House, a beautiful estate that was built beginning in the early seventeenth century and continuing to Victorian times (when it was updated with all the "mod cons"), fit the bill. And it worked! To our amazement, they both loved touring the house, from the "below stairs" where the servants worked to the upstairs with its tiger-skin rugs, children's rooms, and bedpans (!). (Lest we sound like complete frauds, we did visit a real castle too—see below.)
The original gatehouse, dating from the mid-1600s, looks rather castle-like.
The kitchen, where "vast quantities of butter and cream" were put to work.

Socks For Seniors, a non-profit community service project to help senior citizens keep their feet warm in the winter, is hosting its annual sock drive. Volunteers are currently collecting new socks for distribution to area senior citizens.
The Socks for Seniors project started in 2002. Since then, the sock drive has grown into a nationwide network.
The holiday season can be the friendliest and most giving time of year, but not for everyone. Each year, thousands of lonely and financially challenged seniors dread facing the holiday season alone.
Socks For Seniors volunteers work to bring holiday cheer along with a pair of new socks to warm the hearts and cover the cold feet of seniors. The program benefits seniors who are living alone, in nursing homes or who are homeless.
The organization encourages donors to collect fun and funky holiday styles of socks. They also need traditional tube socks.

A NB is very accurate at showing the 14.7:1 cross point. And manipulating the PCV air flow by hand while watching the gauge will show you where you are at.at various above idle rpm/throttle points.. Thats what you need to know.
is it richer than or leaner than//.Stoichiometric....?
You do not need to know the exact AFR. Off idle transition AFR leaner than say 15.5 is too lean (drivability)
richer than 12.8:1 is too rich.
Just get it close to 14.7:1. There is no ideal ratio. close to 14.7:1 is good enough thru the idle transition.
But first set the curb idle for best idle using a vacuum gauge and get the throttles position correct.
The AFR gauge will be richer than 14.7:1 at idle, when the idle is set correctly. usually 12.5 to 13.8:1 ratio @ idle.
Idle quality and manifold vaccuum is the priority , not curb idle AFR.
Play with the pri and sec throttles idle position and idle base timing .
You don't need a wide band for any of this tuning.
Same with WOT power main jet tuning. You don;t need to know the exact AFR.
You just need to know if the jet change you just made up or down in jet size made you go faster or slower.
and wether your jet changes are getting you way too lean @ WOT.
It is a lot friggin easier to just find a different PCV valve air flow rate to correct a simple slight off idle/transiton lean spot
than to start drilling blind. You very rarely ever need to drill a carb. EVER.

Candace Lacy, Koda' Turner and Brother Yusef to perform at the 2014 Women of Achievement Breakfast.
CANDACE LACY started making music at the Baptist Church her father pastored in Houston, Texas. By the time she was 14, she was Minister of Music at the church. Years later, she's still making music, as Minister of Music at her beloved, Refuge Christian Center in Pasadena. It's a position she has held since 1990. The accomplished pianist and singer attended Texas Southern University, in Houston, in 1984, studying music. She had already began to play by ear, and when the family saw that it was her God given gift, they started her with lessons in junior high school.
Over the years Lacy has developed and perfected her talent. Her resume includes working with the likes of the Kirk Carr Singers, Shirley Caesar, Mary Mary, Stevie Wonder, and Al Green. She's also appeared in international venues including Switzerland and England.
When she is not playing and singing at church, she serves as an elementary school teacher (music) at Pasadena Unified School District. She takes great pride in watching her students go from 'can't read or sing' to singing a three and four-part harmony. She says it is great watching the manifestation of her work as a teacher.
BROTHER YUSEF has been described as a master solo guitarist, as well as a uniquely passionate vocalist. He remembers first hearing the call of the Blues as young child attending church with his grandparents in Bakersfield, CA. The raw and intense emotions in church left a lasting impression which he carried with him into other music genres. At age 19, Brother Yusef picked up a guitar and began experimenting with reggae, rhythm and blues, and jazz. He found himself at a musical crossroads in 1989 when he went to the Bakersfield church of his childhood, to pay his last respects at his grandfather's funeral. A soloist there began picking out a soothing church hymn on guitar, connecting Yusef to his grandfather, elders and ancestors in the rich tradition of the blues.
Brother Yusef has gained recognition from audiences and musicians throughout the Los Angeles and Orange County area for his range of sounds and emotions - sadness, joy, anger and laughter. He keeps "one foot in the past and one in the present", by combining "traditional" finger picking and slide guitar playing with the contemporary feel of urban blues. Audiences love the full sound of his solo performances (he uses his right hand thumb to beat out a percussive bass-line and shuffle, while the index finger plays rhythm and lead lines); and musicians nicknamed him "Fatback" or "Fatt-Back Bluesman", for his intense playing and vocal style.
Since 2001, Brother Yusef began performing regularly at Downtown Disney located at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. In addition, he also performs throughout North America and Europe at various festivals and special events.
KODA' TURNER has been a Deputy Sheriff for 23 years. Her passion is singing since the age of four. Formerly with the Kurt Carr Singers, she has sang background for nationally known artists including Chaka Khan, Natalie Cole, The Clark Sisters, Tremaine Hawkins, Mariah Carey, Marvin Sapp and Kirk Franklin to name a few.
She has also performed as vocalist/actor in three Don B. Welch plays and appeared as a choir member on the movie First Sunday. Koda' (pronounced co-day), affectionately called "DAY", is a child of God and her goal is to help build Gods kingdom.
In addition to those performing, Jewel Diamond Taylor will be the keynote speaker, Dr. Pamela Short Powell will once again serve as our Mistress of Ceremonies and Dr. Rosie Milligan will give the invocation.
JEWEL DIAMOND TAYLOR is a dynamic author and motivational speaker. She received her education in Psychology from California State University, Dominguez Hills, then took a leap of faith when she left her Human Resources job in the aerospace industry in Southern California to begin her public speaking career. She soon found herself breaking ground as one of the first female African American motivational speakers. Today she is highly sought after by corporations, conferences, churches, campuses, and individuals.
Known as "the self-esteem doctor" and "the minister of motivation," Jewel is a speaker, minister, life coach, workplace trainer, retreat facilitator, and has authored five books. She is also founder of the Women on the Grow, Super Goal Saturday Motivational Seminars, the Don't Give Up Conference and Women's Paragon Leadership Training Series. Her high-impact keynotes and workshops are empowering, effective, electric, engaging, informative and memorable. She inspires, energizes, educates, and transforms.
DR. PAMELA SHORT POWELL is a longtime educator who has served at every level of the education scale. She is a former teacher and she served as a principal in the Pasadena Unified School District where she rose to the level of Assistant Superintendent. Dr. Powell became Assistant Superintendent of Schools for Oklahoma City and later served as the interim Superintendent of the Oklahoma City School District.
The Chicago-born educator holds a Doctorate in Education. As Superintendent, Dr. Powell served as the Board of Education's Chief Executive Officer and adviser. She was responsible for the supervision and management of the day-to-day operations of the School District and provided leadership and educational advice to the Board of Education, Administrators, teachers, support staff and community as well as the supervision and implementation of all programs and services.
DR. ROSIE MILLIGAN is a nationally known motivational speaker and the founder of Milligan Publishing Company. Her company has published over 150 new African-American authors in the past ten years. She has personally written and published over 10 books. Her Black Writers on Tour conference has attracted writers from across the country including the daughters of Muhammad Ali and Malcolm X.
She lives in Southern California and is sought after across the country as a speaker.
We hope you have made your reservation for this event to come and hear these remarkable, talented performers at the Annual Women of Achievement Breakfast. This year, eight special women who have given much to their chosen community church will be honored at the Brookside Clubhouse, on Saturday, April 12.

Justin Bieber Allegedly Went After Selena Gomez in Text Message Exchange
The next chapter in Justin Bieber's epic meltdown, after saying he'll retire, throwing eggs at a neighbor's home, and then having his house strewn with drugs when the police raided a week ago, is a recent text message exchange with Selena Gomez.
RadarOnline reported that after the police raid last week, Bieber then texted Gomez, telling her he loves her; if this is true, it follows statements from the "Boyfriend" singer that his recent string of bad behavior stems from his breakup with the former Disney star. But then Gomez put together an angry response, which then set Bieber off.
The conversation allegedly went as follows:
Bieber: "Baby come on, I love you"
Gomez: "I don't buy that bulls**t anymore. I was honest with you and I gave you a second chance. All my friends were right, You"re such an a*****e."
Bieber: "You're all I need right now. I know I can make it right with you."
Gomez: "U r a drug addict. U need help."
Bieber: "Come on. Don't tell me you don't miss this."
Gomez: "Stop. You need to listen to Scooter and go to rehab. U r sick."
Bieber: "Rehab? F**k that! I make that f****r so much money. Cum on baby."
Gomez: "Why r u sending these to me. We r done. And how can u let [Lil Za] take the fall for your actions. U need to grow the f**k up. I hope you get jail time. U deserve it at this point."
Bieber: "F**K YOU!!!!! I need to grow up?! HA ok! Enjoy life with OUT ME B***H!!! F**k you. F**k Scooter. F**k all y'all. IAM DONE!"
Gomez: "Good!!! Go retire or whatever bulls**t attention ur trying to get."
Justin: "Can't hear you over my cash, babe! You're only famous cuz of me. You know it. I know. Everybody knows. Bye. … Go f**k someone else. Keep that talentless p***y away from me!"
Since the initial report from RadarOnline, MailOnline followed up with Gomez's representative, who claims the above statements are not accurate. Bieber's representatives haven't commented yet.
All recent incidents concerning Bieber stem from egging a neighbor's house last week. The police came by with a search warrant to investigate the surveillance system on the singer's home for footage of the incident, which reportedly resulted in $20,000 worth of damage to the neighbor's house. Along with this, Lil Za was arrested after having drugs out in the open. Sources, as well, claim that the pop star had drugs, such as cookie jars of weed and Styrofoam cups that held Sizzurp, all over his Calabasas home during the raid.

Christie Debuts MicroTiles at Miami's AIA National Convention
Showcases Interactive Gaming and Touchscreen Demonstrations at Booth # 295
Christie will introduce Christie MicroTiles at the American Institute of Architects National Convention, in the Miami Beach Convention Center, June 10 – 12.
Christie MicroTiles bestow the ultimate design freedom to specify and create a digital media display that fits any commercial or public space. Architects and design professionals attending the show will have the opportunity to interact and play with this breakthrough modular digital display technology designed for wayfinding, interactivity and communication to large audiences. The MicroTiles will be configured in different shapes and designs, presenting gaming and touchscreen demonstrations at Christie booth # 295. Also on display will be one of Christieâs most advanced and versatile HD projectors, the Christie HD10K-M.
Showcasing a new interactive technology, Christie has partnered with never.no AS (www.never.no), a Norwegian software developer, andShow+Tell (www.showandtell.com) of New York City, to bring Boink-O! to AIA 2010. Displayed on a 4-wide by 8-high MicroTiles display, Boink-O! is an interactive game that is controlled by players using their mobile devices and never.no technology. The never.no interactive signage platform enables audience participation by using any mobile phone as a wireless peripheral interface, in this case a game controller. This technology is ideal for captivating and engaging large audiences by enabling active content browsing and selection, instant polling/voting, or controlling interactive games such as Boink-O!. Show+Tell created Boink-O! as well as the M&M's® characters for the M&M'S WORLD® flagship store in Times Square, and were one of the content providers for the Christie MicroTiles launch in November 2009.
Christie has also teamed up with Float 4 Interactive (www.float4.com) laser sensor technology and Arsenal Media (www.arsenal-media.com) content to showcase a gesture-based interactive retail shopping experience on the popular âBig Oâ? display. Made up of 14 MicroTiles shaped in an â0â? configuration (4 on the top row; 4 on the bottom row; and 3 on each side) users can shop for their favourite style of watch. The rugged and robust screen surface of the MicroTiles is cool to the touch, which makes them perfect for touchscreen applications. Being driven at their native resolution of 720 x 540 pixels per tile, the tiles yield a pixel pitch of 0.567mm for crisp, high-resolution viewing up close and at any angle.
A sky scraper shaped display will also be on the booth presenting various wayfinding scenarios for audience engagement; and a digital 1 x 5 column will demonstrate the jaw-dropping resolution, brilliant color and true blacks that Christie MicroTiles are renowned for. Video and high resolution images are provided by Arsenal Media, Christieâs lead digital media content agency.
MicroTiles spectacular image quality and flexibility opens up wide possibilities for companies charged with designing and creating large, vivid visual displays for architectural installations, digital out-of-home, event centers, and retail environments. With an unobtrusive, modular building block design, designers can specify any size, and any shape display to fit their intended environment. Amalgamating the strengths of LED and DLP® technology, Christie MicroTiles have a color range that far exceeds conventional LCD and plasma technologies and offer the right combination of high brightness and rich contrast for demanding indoor, high ambient light environments.
The revolutionary digital display technology was recently awarded the Janus de lâIndustrie Award from the French Institute of Design (Institut Francais du Design) â Franceâs coveted design label for outstanding creative products in the field of industrial design.

Shabana Azmi's on-screen debut, as peasant woman Lakshmi in Shyam Benegal's Ankur (1973), includes an ironic prophecy. "You look like a film star today," says Anant Nag, playing her urbane, arrogant young landlord, intent on seducing his attractive serf. "You know, heroines in films who sing, dance, make love." Surprised by his candor, the married Lakshmi registers a quick flash behind her demure countenance, then turns away. The moment is not merely one of transgressive sexual attraction made manifest. She recognizes her boss's desires could likewise offer her a forbidden taste of self-determination.
Following Ankur, an elegant and powerful treatise on rural feudalism that crossed over from the New Indian Cinema's government-sponsored purview into commercial success, Azmi indeed became a film star. And the characters she plays in over 60 features since then do, at times, sing, dance, and make love. But she forged a path decidedly unlike that of the coy beauties who skip and twinkle through Bollywood's famous musical confections.
Raised in a family of prominent Marxist artists, Azmi trained at the Film and Television Institute of India, incubator of parallel cinema auteurs like Mani Kaul and Adoor Gopalakrishnan. Atypical for a marquee movie star, her diverse filmography includes small-release art pictures, mainstream masala epics, international co-productions, and a little Hollywood fare (including John Schlesinger's Madame Sousatzka and Roland Joffé's City of Joy).

HOT TOPICS: Alcoholism Addiction AA Cocaine Heroin
The Netherlands Bans Khat
The chewy East African leaf with stimulant properties has a long history. But the Dutch are changing their image.
The Dutch government formally announced yesterday that it's banning the use of khat—an East African leaf that's chewed as a stimulant. "If taken in moderation there are no major problems, but an investigation showed it to be problematic among some 10% of khat users, leading to health and social issues," says immigration department spokesman Frank Wassenaar. Khat has been chewed for centuries by people in Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia and Yemen. But Wassenaar claims the drug is especially problematic within the Netherlands' Somali community. Around 843 tons of khat—valued at $18 million—passed through Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport in 2010, up from 714 tons in 2009. Fifteen of the European Union's 27 states currently list khat as an illegal narcotic, while the US bans it as a Schedule I drug. The Netherlands has been trying to distance itself from its drug-loving reputation, with foreigners being phased out of Dutch "coffee" shops this year.

Uncle mikes stuff is OK in a pinch, but its pretty cheap.

I could make a list of a bunch of guns i have, or "have", or wish I had. Why would one feel compelled to provide that infornation freely? Do you feel the need to show off? Is it some immature game of oneupsmanship?
Why do you feel it necessary to list your guns?
