Festive meal plan: Our three B's menu gives plenty of opportunity for dad to let loose. Kick things off with a bourbon cocktail freshened with ginger beer. (Bill Hogan/Chicago Tribune) |
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
Black pepper gravy:
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup reserved meatloaf drippings
1/2 cup chicken stock
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
A few drops fresh lemon juice
8 slices Texas toast or other white bread
1/2 cup mayonnaise
8 thick slices tomato
3 tablespoons butter
8 eggs
Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. For the meatloaf, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions, celery and garlic; cook, until softened, 8 minutes. Add the bacon and mushrooms; cook until mushrooms give up their liquid, 6 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Let cool to room temperature. Transfer vegetables to a food processor; pulse until finely chopped, but not a puree.
2. Add the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg and extra yolk, ketchup, cola, bourbon, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper to the bacon-vegetable mixture. Mix with your hands until evenly blended. Form into a loaf; transfer to an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan.
3. For the glaze, mix the ketchup, brown sugar and soy sauce together. Brush it over the top of the meatloaf. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center reads 145 degrees, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Remove the meatloaf from the oven; carefully pour the drippings into a small bowl by holding the meatloaf in the pan and tipping it slightly. You should get about 1 cup drippings; save this for your gravy. (Add broth to equal 1 cup, if needed.) Let the meatloaf cool, about 20 minutes. Leave the oven on.
4. While the meatloaf is cooling, make the gravy: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth; whisk in the drippings and chicken stock. Heat to a simmer, whisking; simmer, 2 minutes. Add salt to taste, the black pepper and a few drops of lemon juice to brighten the gravy. Turn off the heat; keep the gravy warm until ready to use. (The gravy keeps well in the refrigerator for up to a day. Rewarm it in a small saucepan and add a few drops of water to help smooth it out.)
5. For the sandwiches, arrange the bread slices on a baking pan and toast in the oven until nicely browned, 6-12 minutes. Let cool. (Or toast in your toaster.)
6. Unmold the meatloaf; cut into eight 3/4-inch-thick slices. Smear a tablespoon of mayo on each toast; top with a slice of meatloaf and tomato.
7. Melt a little butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the eggs sunny side up, 2 eggs at a time, about 3 minutes. Lay a fried egg over each slice of meatloaf. Drizzle the gravy over the eggs; top with chopped parsley.

This little bird-like dinosaur was a very quick hunter, and it may have been an important step in dinosaurs' evolution into birds. Scientists believe that feathers and fuzz covered its body. The fuzz would have been like the downy covering on baby birds. Bambiraptor had quite a few features in common with modern birds. It had a wishbone, something all modern birds have that allow them to flap their wings, and its arms and hands were very long for its body size. In fact, the length of its arms and hands approached the lengths needed for flight. It also had an ossified sternum, a bone that is essential for birds to be able to move their wings for flying. Even with these similarities, however, there is no doubt that Bambiraptor was still a dinosaur from the raptor family. It had the killer claw on its foot like Velociraptor, and it had a mouth full of sharp teeth. It is considered by many to be the North American version of Archaeopteryx. Clearly a short step away from its European relative, this specimen is an exceptionally important piece of the bird/dinosaur puzzle. With more than 90 percent of the animal discovered, along with the remains of what may be a second individual, this specimen will continue to provide insight into the evolution of birds.

For more information on the amazing discovery, see this site. On May 19, 2009, researchers unveiled the fossil of a 47 million-year-old creature that offered clues about what some of our earliest ancestors might have looked like.

Financial Security - ATOL Protection
Pioneer Expeditions holds an ATOL License 10113 under our corporate name: Pioneer Expeditions Worldwide Ltd.
To acquire an ATOL license we have to undergo a very rigorous inspection from the Civil Aviation Authority.
The ATOL license guarantees and protects consumer funds for all our flight-inclusive programmes. If a tour operator were to go out of business for any reason, the Civil Aviation Authority refunds an monies paid by a customer. If a tour operator were to go out of business for any reason, the Civil Aviation Authority refunds any monies paid by a customer. And if a client were already overseas in the event of the failure of a travel company, they will arrange for clients to finish their holiday and then fly them home.
The CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) is the closest thing there is to a government licensing scheme. The CAA issues licenses to qualifying tour operators and also requires either a bond (an amount of cash set aside) or a price per passenger to be paid for every flight inclusive holiday sold. This is tightly controlled and regulated by the CAA. There are very strict rules involved in acquiring and retaining an ATOL license.
If you are not booking a flight with us, you will not be covered by our ATOL license, however instead your monies are held and protected in our Client Trust Account until the completion of your holiday.
Are we members of ABTA?
No - and this is very deliberate. We do not intend to become members of ABTA because it really isn't relevant to us. Here's why...
ABTA stands for the 'Association of British Travel Agents' and we are not a travel agent. It is merely a trade association, one of several organisations (like the Passenger Shipping Association) and is a kind of club for members who have things in common. ABTA is mainly a club for retail Travel Agents, rather than Tour Operators, so it really doesn't apply to us, or our style of operation.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Sahara!
Facts about Sahara
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Orange Or Red Tabby
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Sahara's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with cats.
Sahara is a cute, playful orange tabby kitten. He is very playful and likes to be around people. He likes to use his scratching post, does not destroy the carpet or furniture in his room. He is very well mannered, not a climber or attacker!
Sahara's Mama was taped in a box and left at a shelter after it closed. An employee opened the box to find an agressive cat, and she was schedueled for euthanasia. The next day, they opened the box to euthanise her, and she was delivering the 3rd of her kittens. She was given a cage to recouperate in. Our rescue picked her up the next day. Sahara, his siblings, and Mom have been living in the foster home. They were raised with children.
Sahara has been raised in foster care and currently lives in Gilbert. He can be seen by appointment only. His adoption donation is $95 and fully refundable within 30 days. He is neutered, FeLV/FIV tested negative, reveived a 4-in-1 vaccine and and FeLV vaccine.
Other Pets at Fairy Tails Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Sahara, a Mesa Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Mesa, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Mesa.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Mesa already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Mesa breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Mesa paves the way for another one to be saved.

There are no Antipodeans in our class, but if there were we might use the Aussie slang phrase 'We'll be apples' (meaning it'll be alright), as we started to understand the workflow, and make our first tentative steps at modelling fruit in Maya. For on Monday night Mark began our second week of tuition with an exercise in creating an apple, giving new meaning to Maya Core.
Explaining the principle behind curves we started by learning how to draw a line, we then adjusted the control vertices' to create the outer shape. After that, we used Revolve to form the NURB surface of the object, and make the flesh of the apple body. Finally, we deformed the symmetrical shape with a lattice, and scaled a hull or two to give an organic irregular appearance.
All the while we were reminded of good working practice techniques, such as drawing from the origin, keeping a tidy Outliner window and snapping curves to the grid.
To make the stem we made a primitive circle which we then duplicated, and Lofted creating isoparms, after which we rotated and moved the construction curves, to give the stem a realistic bend. Mark had a day off work on Wednesday, so Gideon Corby stepped into the breach for our the second class to finish the exercise, and we made the leaf using similar techniques.
Judging by the results displayed on the screen of my neighbour Nikolai, it is clear my skills are still clearly lagging behind those of my more adept colleagues. His proud, fruity orb with arcing stem and three perfect leaves would grace the virtual food halls of Harrods, but in contrast, my scruffy little rag-tag fruit would be more at home on a stall at Deptford i-Market.
But Gideon and Mark are very helpful by reminding me different people learn at various speeds, and the key to these early stages is to understand the principles, not to create perfect models. Hopefully, in the long run my skills of observational drawing may give me an advantage, of course after I've learnt which are the correct buttons and the right order to press them in.
Although I'm still very much primitive Mayan man, I'm buoyed by the encouraging comments on my last post, and do feel "like a young antelope, taking those awkward first steps in the Maya". But I definitely need to do more practice at home, before the days of "bounding around the Savannah with custom mel and python shelf commands" come in to view.
But there are predators which could upset the apple cart and halt this home practice, namely my girlfriend. She would like to spend her time with me at the weekend, rather than I foraging alone on the Maya Savannah. However, she remains supportive and helpful, but getting the right work/life balance in the world of VFX, is an all too common one I believe.
I wouldn't say I'd had an 'apple fall on my head moment yet', but I did get occasional flashes of wonder at the awesome power of creation lurking beneath my fingertips, whilst clumsily modelling my sorry little fruit.
So I press on and until next week, toodle pip!

"Made this up on Sunday and have been eating it for lunch every day. It is just something that I don't get tired of, and it is nice to have something warm instead of the usual sandwich.

You probably won't remember where you were around around 6 p.m. ET on Tuesday, May 29. It was most likely a normal day, and you were just leaving work. Maybe you were on your way to the grocery store to complete one of life's most mundane chores, or maybe dinner preparation was nearly finished. Or, most likely, you were watching another re-run of NewsRadio, because you're unable to shake an addiction to horrible mid-90s sitcoms.
So when you, a dearly dedicated fan of all things pigskin, heard about Terrell Owens' latest painfully predictable and incredibly unsurprising tumble from grace, the reaction consisted of one word.
You, me, your dog, and your distant cousins saw this coming. Yet for some reason, the Allen Wranglers didn't, likely because they were willfully ignorant during their undying pursuit of the almighty American dream. They needed to make a dollar. They had to make a dollar.
To review, Owens was cut by the Wranglers of the Indoor Football League because he failed to show ambition and any hint of effort or the ability to care about anything. He wasn't professional, and he didn't contribute in the meaningful way that the Wranglers had evidently–and quite foolishly–expected.
In short, he was Terrell Owens. He's always been Terrell Owens, and that's been his greatest obstacle.
Except this time even when we thought it was surely impossible, Owens found a new low through his unique blend of laziness of selfishness. You know all those times that we see or hear about athletes appearing in hospitals to cheer up sick kids? The athletes are smiling, and the children certainly are too, but the truth is that for some athletes it may be a show and a chore. Like any human, they have many other obligations in life, but they still smile on the outside and go through the motions while following through a community appearance that's part of their profession.
Owens couldn't even muster that much ambition.
From ESPN, via Dan Graziano:
Wranglers owner Jon Frankel cited Owens' refusal to play in two upcoming road games that are critical to the Wranglers' playoff hopes and Owens' no-show for a scheduled appearance at a local children's hospital as the breaking points in the team's relationship with the receiver.
Owens caught 35 passes for 420 yards and 10 touchdowns in eight games for the Wranglers.
"It's disappointing and unfortunate," Frankel said of releasing Owens, "but (he) could no longer be tolerated by the Wrangler organization."
It's difficult to understand why the Wranglers expected any other outcome, although it's not hard to understand their motivation. They saw the opportunity to hire a name, and that name brought attention to a league and a team that receives little of it. It was purely and simply a marketing opportunity, and if Owens could contribute a little on the field too, great.
The problem is that to get the return on their investment in Owens as a marketing tool, they also had to deal with the fact that he's an unapologetic jerk. Just like the 49ers, Eagles, Cowboys, Bills, and Bengals, the Wranglers decided that the benefits of the former were far outweighed by the drawbacks of the latter.
And so ends Owens' relevance. In some ways, this is sad, and it always has been. Here's a player who had the physical gifts and the hulking body to excel, and he did for much of his career. Yet down to his final day buried deep in a league no one cared about he was still selfish and arrogant, and we'll always remember that far more than his touchdowns.
He hung on to football because he has no idea how to release that grip. Despite his deep character flaws, that's why we're still worried about Owens as he now officially enters life after football.
Very worried.

- That sound you just heard has Alex Smith chortling with great delight. If Smith's odd and random pot shot towards Newton last week serves as a referendum on the tired and often curmudgeon-y "wins vs. stats" debate, then Smith actually provided more evidence showing how ridiculously good Newton was as a rookie.

But Schwartz has done everything within his power to provide guidance, so eventually the responsibility to behave like a normal, functioning adult falls to the individual. [Detroit Free Press]
- Or maybe–and more likely–the problem in Detroit is far more deep rooted, and it starts in the front office. There's a reason why we hear about character assessments and ominous red flags so much during draft season, and the risks surrounding Nick Fairley, Titus Young, and Mikel Leshoure were well known and documented last spring.

Typically, with the engine running at full throttle, an air cooled engine can consume up to 1 oz. of oil, per cylinder, per hour. If your engine consumes any more than this, please consult a Briggs & Stratton Authorized Dealer.
White/blue smoking usually indicates the burning of oil. Causes to this condition include:
Also, be aware that any small air leak can cause an excess of air entering the crankcase and will create a higher oil mist than the breather is capable of handling. The excess oil will then return through the breather tube and back to the air filter. Other possible causes include operating or tilting the unit at an angle, an obstruction in the breather tube (located behind the air filter), damage to the cylinder/piston rings, etc.

you found? I have two ready to go that do not pass thru analog but I have heard that some stations have already switched to digital which I have noted while surfing. So I was wondering if anybody else has experimented yet... |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have a DTV tuner since springtime. Most, if not all, tv channels are currently broadcasting both digital and analog. And have for a few years now. On February 19th they shut off the analog transmitters. |
jdbillp- I called our local tv guy- he maintains the signal towers here (a small town). He said we will not even need a box, as the stations have already gone to digital. One of my tv is about 6 yeras old- it is a small, 13 inch. I don't know if it has HD or not. When I tried the box on it, the picture was better, but I could only get PBS stations with the box. I am confused. |
Many boxes support "analog pass through", and this is useful for the moment. But after feb 2009, it will be far less useful because there will be very little analog left. I currently use a Channel Master CM-7000 CECB on my old Panasonic TV. It does not have analog pass-through. But I get away with it because the Panasonic has provisions for a "cable descrambler" box output and second antenna input. I connected the CM-7000 to the descrambler output and it works fine. (Though the signal is reduced a bit compared with a direct antenna connection.) Again, after Feb, there won't be any analog in my area. So I will then recable the antenna to feed directly into the converter box. The reason I chose the CM-7000 is that it has S-video output and reportedly the best picture quality of any of the CECBs. The Zenith DTT-901 also gets high ratings - with a decent picture and more features than the CM-7000, but does not support S-video. I also have had a Samsung SIR-T451 for several years on a newer HD-ready TV. This supports full HD capabilities (e.g., 480p/720p/1080i), numerous outputs (component, s-video, composite, VGA, etc), has analog pass-through, and a number of other features. It is a nice box, but not as sensitive to weak signals as the CM-7000. I would assume the newer Samsung boxes are better. ilmbg: I think your "local TV guy" misheard your question. If your TV is more than about 3-4 years old, it is unlikely that it has a digital tuner in it. You will need a converter box. And it sounds like you will also need a better antenna. BTW, do not confuse "digital" with "high definition". They are two different things. Everyone will need a digital tuner for over-the-air broadcasts. But not everyone wants or needs HD display capabilities. For many folks, 480i may be just fine. |
ilmbg, are you watching TV via an antenna, cable tv, or satellilte? |
I use an antenna. I will have to talk to him again so I can get it clearer in my mind why he said the boxes are really not needed.....I keep forgetting.... |

PHOENIX (AP) - Police say three people have died after a pickup truck rolled over in northeastern Scottsdale.
Officer David Pubins says in a news release that no other vehicles were involved when the pickup carrying four adults rolled over Saturday at 141st Street and Rio Verde Drive.
He says one person died at the scene and three others were taken to a hospital. Police say two people were transported with life-threatening injuries and later died at the hospital. The other person had injuries described as non-life-threatening.
Pubins says the investigation is just beginning but that alcohol use and fast driving have not been ruled out as factors.
Rio Verde Drive has been closed between 136th Street and 144th Street as authorities investigate.

Apple has revolutionised how we consume and play portable games with iPhone and iPad. In this new regular series, CVG discovers and celebrates the most innovative new iOS games on the App Store. Click through the links to find our full list of best iPad and best iPhone games.
Best iPad games: Symphonica
- Also available on:
- iPhone
Square-Enix's latest App Store experiment is Rock Band does Radio 3 in Japan. You are a trainee orchestra conductor in this oddball, oh-so Japanese rhythm action game.
What that means is tapping and swiping along to Symphonica's repertoire of well-known classical ditties. Keep in time and the orchestra plays well, passing the stage to advance the narrative. The plot revolves around you, the aspiring conductor, a strange supernatural doll named Chloe plus a gang of other characters.
Presumably we all learn valuable life lessons by overcoming adversity by the end. I don't know. Not being a fan of texty, interminable cut-scenes, I skipped every single one to get to the meat of the game, which is surprisingly excellent.
It's certainly not the kind of game to be idly dipped into - headphones are essential and absolute concentration is just as important. Mozart and Tchaikovsky's tunes are made all the more rousing when you tap along, and the varied ways in which you conduct your orchestra lead your fingers a merry dance.
One and two finger taps are the most common commands, providing a foundation of short, sharp percussive stabs. Longer notes are replicated on-screen by holding your finger(s) down on the screen, while pinches and swipes play other parts in your one or two digit symphony.
Episodes 1-3 are free, with episodes thereafter costing £1.99 each. You can also choose to buy four at a time for £4.99 or the entire set of 12 episodes and four bonus chapters for £10.49. The first three episodes provide an excellent hours' worth of free entertainment, though. The only drawback is having to slog through the dialogue, unless you happen to be a fan of surreal Manga-esque melodrama. There is also a concert mode, in which you can practice the tunes you have unlocked in the main game.
Symphonica is an odd game, but one well worth sampling for free, despite those cut scenes. Square-Enix has turned conducting your own iOS orchestra into an unexpected thrill.
Symphonica's first three chapters are free on the App Store. Download it here.

This was the first hair product I'v ever fallen in love with, honestly. I would french braid my hair at night after my shower and sleep on it, then wake up and scrunch it with this product and every day people would compliment me all day on my hair, it was just so perfect. Now I can't find it anywhere. At all. Its like im searching for my first love from High school (kinda) I searched every store on Long Island and its no where to be found

I used this for years & years, but haven't been able to find it in recent months. A few weeks ago, I found it at my local Big Lots for $1, so I stocked up. I still love this product just as much as I did back in high school. It fights frizz & keeps my curls in place without making my hair crunchy as gel tends to do. The only thing I dislike, is that I feel like I have to pump it a million times to get enough product out. One pump dispenses a very small amount of product, so it kinda annoys me to have to keep pumping & pumping...but overall, I love this! :)

This is the best product I have ever found for my hair. Sure it took a little getting used to - trying to figure out the right balance for my hair - but I LOVE IT! I have extremely dry hair and cannot stand what mousse does to it. This product makes my curls soft and bouncy and doesn't make my hair look wet ALL day long.

My review is for the "waves" not "curls" version of this product but as someone has wisely pointed out, the ingredients are the same for both products. Anyway, I really like it, though not for the intended purpose. It doesn't do much for creating or holding waves in my slightly wavy hair, but I do get a great straight blow-out with this stuff! And it's very moisturizing - I live in Alberta, the driest place on earth in the winter, and my hair has been looking amazing. Edit Dec 2010: I cut my hair pretty short (angled bob) and now this isn't doing much for me... I'll keep my rating as is, because it was great when my hair was longer (shoulder length).

Hmm. I've used this product about 3 times since I bought it a week ago. I'm a bit confused by it to be honest! It doesn't hold my curls at all but makes them insanely soft and actually de-curls them almost to a wave. I'm thinking if I can work with it a bit more I may be able to achieve a nice beach-wave look which is a look that I love. When combined with a stronger gel it does work better. One things for sure, you can't scrunch with this product at all! I tried and failed horribly until I had about 4 pumps full into my short-medium length medium-curly hair! I rated this a 2 for now since I don't know how to work with it but I'm not giving up! I have a feeling I may be able to pull something off if I give it a little more time. I'll be back to update!

The 1980s were full of aging rockers coming together in seemingly random configurations. See Asia, which rose out of the ashes of Yes, King Crimson, and ELP to the heights of commercial cheese-dom.

USL PRO News Release
Tuesday, July 2, 2013
TAMPA, Fla. – USL PRO named its Team of the Week for Week 15 of the season on Tuesday, with Richmond Kickers goalkeeper Andrew Dykstra earning Player of the Week honors after recording a pair of shutouts as the Kickers remained undefeated after a weekend trip to Florida. Dykstra, on loan from D.C. United, is now tied for the league lead with six shutouts this season.
Dykstra became the first goalkeeper in USL PRO to shut out Orlando City at the Citrus Bowl as the Kickers took a 2-0 victory on Saturday night. Dykstra made four saves to record the shutout, including a pair of outstanding stops that kept the Kickers ahead in the second half while up 1-0. The following night, he continued his strong weekend as he made six saves in a scoreless draw with VSI Tampa Bay FC that moved the Kickers within two points of Orlando at the top of the USL PRO standings.
Dykstra was joined on the Team of the Week by teammates Joseph Ngwenya and Michael Seaton, who combined for what proved to be the game-winning goal in the Kickers' win against Orlando. Ngwenya put in a strong performance in the center of midfield for the Kickers, helping his side control possession and break on the attack. His well-weighted pass sprang Seaton behind the Lions' back four as he was able to score his third goal of the season with a fine low finish.
Joining Seaton in the Team of the Week attack is Harrisburg's Sainey Touray, who had the game-winning goal as the City Islanders defeated Phoenix 2-1, and Wilmington's Steven Perry, whose 88th-minute goal gave the Hammerheads a 2-1 win against the New York Red Bulls Reserves.
New Wilmington signing Mickael Oliveira is also named to the Team of the Week after he began the Hammerheads' comeback with a fine long-range strike against New York. He is joined in the midfield by Charlotte's Jorge Herrera, who had a goal and an assist in the Eagles' 2-2 draw with Dayton, and Phoenix's Obodai, who helped the Wolves earn a scoreless draw with the Rochester Rhinos.
Dayton's Shane Smith leads a trio of defenders after his 85th-minute goal earned the Dutch Lions a point against Charlotte on Friday night, and he is joined by Charlotte's Shaun Francis, who scored the game-winning goal for the Eagles in their win against the Chicago Fire Reserves. VSI Tampa Bay FC's Alex Freitas, who was impressive at both ends in his side's scoreless draw with Richmond, rounds out the selections.
The USL PRO season continues Wednesday night as the Wilmington Hammerheads host Orlando City at Legion Stadium at 7:30 p.m. ET. Thursday brings a Fourth of July tripleheader, with the Dayton Dutch Lions and Rochester Rhinos leading off the day at 1 p.m. ET at Dayton's Beavercreek Stadium. The Pittsburgh Riverhounds then host the Charlotte Eagles at Highmark Stadium at 7 p.m. ET, with Antigua Barracuda FC's visit to the Los Angeles Blues rounding out the night at 10:30 p.m. ET.
Friday night brings one of the marquee matches of the season as defending USL PRO champion the Charleston Battery hosts 2011 champion Orlando City at Blackbaud Stadium at 7:30 p.m. ET. Then on Saturday night, five games round out the holiday weekend, with the Richmond Kickers visiting the Dayton Dutch Lions looking to continue their undefeated run through the season at 7:30 p.m. Also slated for Saturday on the east coast is a visit by the Los Angeles Blues to Pittsburgh, the Rochester Rhinos hosting the Charlotte Eagles at Sahlen's Stadium, and the Wilmington Hammerheads welcoming the Harrisburg City Islanders to Legion Stadium. The night is capped by Phoenix's FC's return to Sun Devil Soccer Stadium as they host Antigua Barracuda FC.

Football: Lake Central's David Yancey commits to Purdue
By Mark Lazerus 648-3140 or firstname.lastname@example.com June 23, 2012 6:56PM
Lake Central quarterback David Yancey passes against Munster during the first quarter at Munster High School in Munster, Ind., Friday, August 19, 2011. | Guy Rhodes~For Sun-Times Media
Updated: July 25, 2012 6:54AM
David Yancey knows he could have waited, had another big season, and potentially could have had his pick of countless schools across the country.
But why wait? He already had the offer he wanted.
Yancey, the Lake Central quarterback, committed to Purdue on Saturday morning. The Boilermakers offered him two weeks ago.
It's a school Yancey knows well. His brothers Keenan, Haakon and Derrick all went to Purdue.
"When I went down for the visit, I just felt at home," Yancey said. "I felt that's where I should be. They're the ones that said they wanted me, and that's the first time I heard that from a college — that they really wanted me. That's all I wanted to hear.
"It's close to home, it's Big Ten football, my brothers graduated from there — it just felt like that's where I should be."
Boilermakers coach Danny Hope has him pegged as a running back — no surprise, considering he rushed for 1,345 yards as a junior. Yancey thinks he fits in well in the Purdue offense.
"To be a running back at Purdue, you have to be an every-down back," he said. "You have to be able to run routes, be able to be a scatback, be a first-down back and a third-down back. You have to be versatile."
Yancey also has been looked at as a defensive back and a quarterback during the recruiting process. He was being looked at by many schools, including Wisconsin, Minnesota, Northwestern and Iowa.
"I told Coach Hope I just want to help the team win, and he said running back would be the best position," Yancey said. "They were really in need of a running back."
Lake Central is coming off an 8-2 season and its first Duneland Conference championship. With Yancey carrying the ball and a stellar defensive unit, the Indians are expecting big things this fall. And Yancey didn't want his college decision to be a distraction.
"I wanted to make the commitment before our senior year," he said. "We have a good team coming back and I wanted to focus and help us make as deep a run at state as we can."

Anyone ever grown scarlet runner beans in hanging pots? I need something to put in some hanging pots that can take the heat and sun and is fast growing. Any other ideas welcome.

In my experience a SRB would be a bit big for most pots. I have had them grow straight over my garage and keep going. Also they prefer to twine up rather than hang down and might even double back on themselves to make a knot. Maybe nasturtiums would be nice instead? |
I have LOTS of nasturtium seed and I had thought of that ...first thought actually, but I have not had any luck growing them in pots in the past. Maybe too hot. Wouldn't you know the easiest flowers to grow and I can't grow them in pots! Maybe if I start them in peat pellets.Hmmmm. Ginny |
Ipomoea? |
I have planted petunias, lobelia, asarina in hanging baskets. I also tried the small flowering morning glory and they did great. I tried the black eyed susan vine (thumbergia?) but instead of hanging down, it decided to climb onto the patio roof. Guess some plants would rather climb than hang around. Marg |
I broke down and went to Can Tire for some petunias. I have put petunias in these planters for a few years till two years ago when they got badly infested with aphids. They don't do too great in the heat hanging on the deck. I have different pots this year so maybe they will be better. I think I'll plant some nasturtium as well just for the fun of it. :) Ginny |

Ipomoeas as Shazam suggested are very nice too. I like the tricolour one with pink, and the dark purple. They thrive in hot sun. Nasturtiums are one of my favourite annuals but for me, some years they do and some years they don't if you know what I mean. They either go nuts or sit sulking. |
- Posted by oilpainter (My Page) on Wed, Jun 3, 09 at 23:45
Geraniums both the zonal and hanging ones. I grow them in pots on my south facing patio and they get plenty of heat and sun. They like to dry out between waterings so they are ideal for hot places Get rid of your aphids with insecticidal soap if you ever get them again |

Soulforce Update–Action Steps you can take to continue the work of Relentless Nonviolent Resistance
Update–Here's what's going on at Soulforce. Look for action steps you can take now to participate in Soulforce's work of Relentless Nonviolent Resistance of oppression!
Cindi on the New Pope – continuing a 13-year engagement with the Roman Catholic Church
As the new pope takes his place at the Vatican, LGBTQ people of faith and their allies look to Rome in hope that one of the most powerful religious figures in the world will use his position to lift the stigma of fear and rejection from tens of millions of LGBTQ Catholics and their families.
In her most recent Huffington Post article, Soulforce executive director Cindi Love reminds us that Soulforce has been engaging the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church on its anti-LGBTQ bigotry since Mel White and Dignity USA led a nonviolent protest at the National Council of Catholic Bishops meeting in 2000 in which 104 people were arrested. Cindi expresses the hope for change, and challenges the Vatican to overcome its history and lead the church into a new dawn of acceptance an reconciliation with LGBTQ people worldwide.
See also: "Republicans, Report Cards, & Roll Call" about Cindi's visit to lobby the Texas state legislature, and the importance of telling our elected representatives our stories so they can see the human face of state-sponsored anti-LGBT discrimination.
Action Step: Click on the articles, Like them on Facebook, and leave comments on the Huffington Post page-move these stories up on the page so more people can read about Soulforce's amazing work!
Alfredo's Fire Kickstarter Campaign
An important film project being developed by director Andy Abrahams Wilson and Open Eye Pictures, Alfredo's Fire tells the story of Alfredo Ormando, a gay Italian writer who set himself on fire in front of Saint Peter's Basilica to protest the Vatican's anti-LGBTQ dogma. In 2000, Soulforce founder Mel White led a nonviolent protest at the location of Alfredo's self-immolation begging then-Cardinal Ratzinger, now Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, to change the Roman Catholic Church's policies before more people died.
Action Step: Click on the link to the Alfredo's Fire Web site, read about the Soulforce 2000 Jubilee Year action at the Vatican and click through to the Kickstarter page. Donate to help this film get made and to spread its message of hope!
Preserving History: Equality Ride Tumblrs Celebrating 7 Years of Justice in Action
"Learn from history" was the slogan of the first Equality Ride in 2006. As Soulforce is redesigning its Web site and increasing capacity to host searchable and user-friendly archives from our 15 years of activism, we want to start collecting that history. We've set up Tumblr pages for all five of the Equality Rides. If you have photos, articles, mementos, or written memories from the Equality Rides to post, please go to your year on Tumblr and submit those items.
We would also like to have a volunteer editor from each of the years to help organize the submitted items into chronological narratives. If you're interested in being the volunteer editor, for your year, please contact Soulforce P.R. and Media Coordinator Richard Lindsay at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Action Step: Those who participated in any way in the Equality Rides of 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, and 2012, click on the Tumblr and submit your photos, personal stories, and articles. Label people in photos and tell which stop along the Ride each piece of history describes. Please be respectful of gender pronouns or changes in gender identity or names since the Ride took place. If you're not sure, ask the person in question.

A Few Favorite Summer Activities with My Baby
Posted by Janssen Bradshaw
Summer is starting to wrap up – this morning when I went
You can read more of Janssen's writing at Everyday Reading and on Twitter. She's also on Google+
More on Disney Baby:
The Pool
Of course, the pool was a big favorite this summer. Our swimsuits are all looking well-loved by now.
Learning to Crawl
This was her big milestone of the last weeks of summer. Hooray!
Since we've moved to North Carolina, the weather has been much more mild than it was in Austin, so we've enjoyed many many walks.
Trips to the Park
Both of my girls are enormous fans of swings, so we visit our neighborhood park often.
Library Visits
The library has lots to recommend it, but perhaps the biggest selling point to me is the air conditioning. Perfect for getting out of the house when it's too hot to be outside.
Indoor Sister Play
Over the summer, my baby got old enough to play with my toddler a little more. I'm loving it!
Pretend Camping
This tent was a lifesaver on days when my girls had summer colds or we couldn't leave the house.
Do you think she liked it?
The Beach
We took one beach trip this summer and my girls were in heaven. So was I.

brushed oxford shirt
by SCHNAYDERMANS
Believing a crisp Oxford shirt to be the cornerstone of every complete wardrobe, Schnayderman's was founded by a small group of designers in Stockholm and New York. Schnayderman's, which means, "tailor-man," maintains that the button down shirt is the thing that helps us rise to all occasions and travels with us in our journeys. Using fine fabrics, classic colors and contemporary cuts, Schnayderman's draws on a rich tradition of shirt making. They offer three lines, Formal, Leisure and Oxford, each in the same cut. Once a customer has determined their size, reordering is consistent and convenient. Inspiring, versatile and effortless, we second Schnayderman's assertion that button downs should be of the highest order.

I love Summer. Why?
(first) because I live in Florida, which is just a few minutes away from the nearest beach.
(second) because I love going to beach! (Oh, I miss Bali!)
(third) because it's the perfect weather to chill by the pool and my apartment got the best pool ever. There are 2 swimming pool with a breathtaking lake view, a mini beach + volleyball court and a BBQ Patio. Uh-yeah how's that?
(fourt) because of... SUMMER SALE!!! I can shop, lol.
Anyways! one of my favorite thing to do when I'm super bored at lecture is to browse through online stores. And yes, just like everybody else I think, Net-a-Porter is one of my faves. Well, since their products are mostly pricey... I just can't wait until they are having Sale, like now!! Lately, I have been looking different style of Bikinis (since, I am going to Miami in one month for Summer Break, yiha!). As I browse through Net-a-Porter's Sale Section, I saw cute swimmies! So here's my top 5 picks for Swimmies that I found from Net-a-Porter's Sale.
1. Herve Leger Cutout Bandage Bikini, shop here
I love Bandage skirt or dresses. and I just knew that they have Bandage Bikini!!! Awesome.
2. We Are Hansome The Anchorage Halter-neck Bikini, shop here
First, I like the prints because it gives you a 'Beach-y' atmosphere with the blue-white color for the top. Second, I just love halter-neck type of Bikini.
3. Mara Hoffman Printed Triangle Bikini, shop here
For those who know me well, they know that I love electric colors like the prints on Hoffman's bikini! Style is standard but I (heart) the prints!

Pineapple Trainwreck
Contrary to its name, this cocktail is a perfectly balanced blend of sweetness, spice and acidity.
1 1/2 oz. aged rum (Magarian uses Bacardi Añejo)
1 1/2 oz. fresh pineapple juice
3/4 oz. spicy ginger syrup (see below)
1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice
1 dash each Angostura and Peychaud's bitters
Ice cubes
Tools: shaker, strainer
Glass: Old Fashioned
Garnish: skewered sour cherry and a pineapple leaf (optional) Combine all ingredients and shake with ice. Strain over fresh ice cubes into an Old Fashioned glass and garnish.
For the ginger syrup: In a large sealable container, add 3 1/2 oz. of granulated sugar to 4 oz. of fresh ginger juice. Stir until sugar dissolves, add a small splash of vodka (optional, it acts as a preservative), seal, and keep refrigerated.
