He built it and they're still coming. Disappointed by the lack of nearby baseball fields a Columbus County man built his own.
After Williams Township Elementary in Columbus County burned down two years ago, it had to rebuild over two of its baseball fields. That's when local little league coach dean benton took matters into his own hands.
Dean Benton said, "I built this field for my son and anyone else who wants to come out here and practice and play."
"After the school burnt and they took the spaces we had for practicing baseball, for a parking lot, it was kind of limited for where we had to practice. And so i come out here and my mom let me use her land to make a ball field."
Benton spent six months clearing the land. A team fundraiser bought the backstop and the local school donated the clay to put around the bases.
Williams Township little leaguer Ethan Barnhill said, "Good cut grass, good clay around the bases, it's really nice."
Madison Benton is Bentont's son. He said, "We just love it a lot. It's real fun."
Without the field Madison and his teammates would have to travel twenty minutes to practice. Now they can play pretty much whenever they want.
Other little leaguers said, "I'm glad Mr. Dean built this. We get to all play on this field. We all share it. It's really fun."
It's fun for the kids and a chance for dean to share his love with the next generation.
Benton said, "I love baseball. It's always been a passion of mine ever since I was about eight years old. I really enjoy it and I'm just thankful I can pass on what I've learned over the years to my son and other kids now."
Benton says other teams are starting to practice on his field but he hasn't hosted any games yet. He hopes the community will build more fields so more kids can play ball.

Shout all you want that The Simpsons hasn't been good for the past [insert number less than or equal to 16] years; either way, you can't deny that the show's recent spate of elaborate, extended couch gags has led to some dazzling, audaciously creative stuff.
This is especially true when The Simpsons turns over its opening to famous animators and filmmakers like Michal Socha, Guillermo del Toro—and, most recently, indie idol Don Hertzfeldt, beloved for absurdist fare like the Oscar-nominated short film Rejected. (Contrary to semi-popular belief, he has nothing to do with those lookalike Pop Tart commercials from 2011; as the F.A.Q. section of his website states, "Unfortunately it seems to be the vogue these days for creatively bankrupt corporate types to copy his work, which is why you may be noticing an abundance of vaguely familiar, cowardly lifeless parrots parading around selling Pop Tarts or mobile phones.")

Good quality one limitation
By Swimnut from Santa Rosa, CA on 1/27/2015
Size: TRUE
I bought this wetsuit to keep me warm during the winter months keeping in shape in a local public pool. The suit is very high quality. Only one problem, the shoulders are restricting when swimming. Otherwise an excellent product.

Great for under wet suit
By bo from Denver, CO on 1/25/2015
Purchased this to wear under scuba my wet suit. Worked great and there was no bunching up like a normal swim suit.
A nice lap swim top!
By GreengardenMH from South Bay Area of SF. on 1/22/2015
Size: NA
When I first saw it and tried it on I felt it was too small. However when using it in the pool I discovered it stretched very easily and was effortless to use. No feeling of drag but just a little issue with the air pocket between the shoulder blades. Maybe a little change on the neck collar would take that away. But for all in all, swimming on the days when the heater is off and the water at 73-74* it is great.I would order a size larger then I think I would need as they seem to run a bit tight. The XXL was a good choice for a man wearing a 44L, 6'4" and a 38" waist.
Good Product
By E from Hawaii on 1/21/2015
Size: TOOSMALL
Would have given it 5 stars, but torso is a little short for me. Being an Asian American, my torso is longer than the average white (or black) male of same height. If you have similar proportions and go by sizing chart, you will end up w/a torso that is a little too short. Not much of a problem if you are only buying a top, but in this case, I have to keep pulling down the crotch. I'm going to try to see if I can slowly stretch the wetsuit by hanging a weight from it. Other than that, all other dimensions are perfect. An size "ST" would have been perfect, instead of an "S."

Good Wetsuit
By BShipCocoaBeach from Cocoa Beach, FL on 1/8/2015
Fits exactly like reviews said, I'm 5'10" 183 lbs, Extra Large Short fits really good, used it surfing first time other day, water was only 62deg that day and I was hot, had to keep letting in a little water so I'm guessing the suit will do well even in colder water. Very pleased with the suit for the price, shipped quick, very satisfied.
Great product just what I needed
By JAW from San Gabriel Vally , CA on 1/7/2015
Love the fact that that the strap is adjustable
nice wetsuit jacket
By hobby420 from Huntington Beach ca on 12/19/2014
I wish it had a side zip but other than hard to get off it is nice.
Loves it!
By Kari c. from San Jacinto, CA on 12/16/2014
Gift for my husband who is always cold, even in our So Cal waters. Perfect fit, Keeps him warm. Fast shipping!!
Too old to paddle but still use them daily.
By Old man of the Sea from Sarasota, FL on 12/15/2014
Perfect for senior's exercizing in pool or gulf during Florida's cool winter waters.And great for keeping wrinkling skin from afternoon's sunburning rays. Greatproduct as are your paddle gloves. Wish I'd found your website sooner.

nice shorts
By z from michigan on 11/14/2014
Glad I bought the large.
Great idea!
By Joie from Charleston SC on 11/10/2014
I love the resistance that these gloves give. You use lots more energy per swimming stroke.
Great for Tall Men
By The Short Wife from Richland, OR on 10/28/2014
I was having a hard time shopping for my husband to find him a wetsuit, because he is 6'8" tall with a very long torso and legs. After reviewing information and watching the videos for several wetsuits, I decided to purchase this one. Long story short- it fit him perfectly and we will now be visiting the coast whenever we can.
Excellent top!
By Cyndi from Jacksonville Beach, FL on 10/28/2014
This wetsuit jacket is perfect for fall surf. Keeps you warm up top while your bottom half is still in the water and the cool wind is blowing on the surface. It is very flexible and good looking.
Quiksliver 3m long john
By Long John from San Diego on 10/27/2014
Fits well, I am 200, 5' 10" with short legs and a long torso. You have to be a little careful with the velcro fastner on the shoulder when putting the suit on, it tends to stick to everything. Other than than minor issue, no complains. However once you suit up and fasten it it stays fasten. The blue band around the middle is a rougher material that grips the wax on your board and keeps you frlom slipping off, while the other material of the wetsuit is slicker. Have worn the suit a couple of times, water has been warm so it was not the best test conditions. Plenty of flexibilty for 3mm.
By Skippy from Virginia Beach, VA on 10/14/2014
Fits just right. I'm 6'1" at 184 lbs.
good fit
By goodfit from Omaha, NE on 10/9/2014
Good fit for water aerobics.
50/50 split
By simmingfool from Pac NW on 10/1/2014
I ordered 2 , a L and a M for layering over a cap. The L was mis-manufactured ie: they forgot to make the opening elastic, so I couldn't get it over my head, yet the M size is very adequate but too small for layering over a cap, that's why it's a good try to order one size up if that is the intention..
excellent 5 star *****
By swimmingfool from Pacific NW on 10/1/2014
excellent 5 star ***** for my purposes. I use this as top layer over cap, sometimes over a thin hooded vest. I swim year round open ocean and lakes in the Pacific NW. Layers are best for me.
GREAT! but funky fit
By Fart face from san diego, ca on 9/24/2014
fast shipping, great price, but a little tight around the chest.

By Jersey bigdog from Beach town, nj on 7/7/2014
Best thing I can say is I forget I'm wearing these.Yes, all day long, in and out of ocean surf.Very comfortable. Purchased a few more.
Exactly what I wanted.
By Adam P from Oceanside, CA on 6/28/2014
They fit perfectly. Perfect to wear under a wetsuit to make changing in the parkinf lot easier or under boardshorts for extra warmth and comfort against your surfboard.
Outstanding value
By CeJ from San Diego on 6/14/2014
Nice wetsuit for the money

Works for Surfing
By llestell from San Francisco, CA on 6/6/2014
I bought this beanie as an alternative to my one-piece hood/rashguard. (It's a pain to get on/off and caused my suit to flush.) Pros: Keeps my head warm and my hair out of my face, and doesn't cause any flushing. Cons: Chin strap could be more comfortable, and the velcro placement right over the left ear makes putting it on and taking it off really loud.
Nice Fit...
By Damian from Washington, DC on 5/12/2014
The Beanie really helps to keep the water out of my ears!
Great long johns for the summertime
By The Sandy Shandy Surf Shack from Long Beach, Ca on 5/7/2014
These are the first long johns that I have had that are not the over-the-shoulder velcro strap and I must say that they are a different experience for the summertime. There is surprisingly little flushing; I had expected a lot more water to get into the suit.Movement is amazing! The freedom felt while paddling around in this suit is spectacular. I bought a L when I usually wear a LT so I was expecting some resistance in the shoulders, but experienced none. I would recommend this suit. It has a pouch for your key that sits in the middle of your back and the velcro to keep the zipper from falling is small enough that it won't tear up the suit too badly too quickly.
By christine s. from WHITEHALL, PA on 4/20/2014
It keeps your warm so make sure you put it on outdoor, because if you put at home you sweat like a pig jejeje
Great surf booties!
By Michael from Highland, UT on 4/18/2014
Appear to be well constructed. Worked well. Very happy. My son and I each took a pair with us on a recent surf trip to San Clemente, CA.

Works for the pool
By David from CT on 4/3/2014
I purchased this for the lap pool on days it feels cool. The suit feels good, not much drag, and no arms / farmer style gives you good arm movement. I am 5"8 175lbs and M seems to work, slightly snug but not unexpected either. I did get a bit of water in the neck but surprisingly less than expected given the fact it does not have a turtle neck design. Seems like a winner for rec swimming.

By Stuart S. from Culver City, CA on 2/20/2014
excellent comfort /fit and the price being on sale
By Surfing Nomad from Mid Atlantic on 2/11/2014
I have been surfing for 35 years. The older I get, the more the cold water affects me. The whole point for us older dudes and surfing IS TO HAVE FUN! If you are cold, you are not having fun. If you are not having fun, you don't surf as much in the winter. This heated vest increases my amount of surf sessions in the winter. I find myself surfing way more. It does not constrict your surfing at all. You have way more freedom/flexibility with the H-bomb vest under a 3/2 wetsuit, than wearing a 4/3, and it keeps you just as warm. Other cool things are that the heater coils warm your back muscles up, so your back muscles are actually looser. Finally, it extends your time in the water because your body is using less energy to keep you warm. You can use the energy savings to surf more. That's an advantage for an old guy like me. It does last about 2 hours on high. I drained the entire battery charge yesterday surfing. What does it feel like... kind of like a heating pad underneath your wetsuit. I will never surf without it now.
Nice suit for cooler weather
By Todd B. from Tampa, FL on 1/28/2014
This seems like a great cooler weather wetsuit. I'm looking forward to getting in the water with it soon. It does fit a little more snug in the torso than I thought it would, but I'm sure it will do the job.

All I know is that Zimmerman
All I know is that Zimmerman lied about Trayvon grabbing his gun. The medical examiner testified that Zimmerman's injuries were insignificant. Zimmerman said that he had no idea about Stand Your Ground, yet a professor who taught Zimmerman testified that he did. Zimmerman also said really crazy things like Martin banged his head on the ground 25 times. 25 times? Of course that is such a perfect number, but doing so would have caused massive injury and taken so much longer.

Video Cards
- Leadtek A250 Ultra TDH (GeForce4 Ti4600)
Since the GeForce4 was released onto the market a bit more than a month ago, it has redefined the meaning of performance desktop graphics. In some tests, the GeForce4 scored more than 50% higher than the previous speed champions, the Radeon 8500 and GeForce3 Ti500.
The GeForce4 is available in 2 flavors at the moment, the top of the range GeForce4 Ti4600, and the middle of the range GeForce4 Ti4400. In the coming month, the GeForce4 Ti4200 will be released, which is a sub US$200 performance card. The only difference between the GeForce4 models lies in the speeds they are clocked at. The specs are:
- GeForce4 Ti4600
Core: 300MHz
RAM: 325MHz
- GeForce4 Ti4400
Core: 275MHz
RAM: 275MHz
- GeForce4 Ti4200
64MB version
Core: 250MHz
RAM: 250MHz
128MB version
Core: 250MHz
RAM: 222MHz
Note: Remember, these cards use DDR RAM which means the RAM speed is doubled.
All GeForce4 Ti4400/4600 cards have 128MB of RAM. The GeForce4 has been updated quite heavily since the GeForce3, but it doesn't include any major steps forward. The main additions to the GeForce4 are the nFiniteFX II engine, the addition of a second vertex shader, improvements to the pixel shaders, Accuview, nView, which is basically the ability to use a dual monitor set up, and LMA II (Lightspeed Memory Architecture), which is one of the biggest reasons why the GeForce4 has such a performance increase over the GeForce3.
Enough about the GeForce4 and onto the Leadtek card. The Leadtek card certainly isn't the most feature rich on the market, but it can still hold its own. The card comes clocked at the standard 300/650, has 128MB of 2.8ns DDR memory, an analogue monitor port, TV out, DVI, hardware monitoring (only on the TDH model), Winfox suite of tools (ranging from overclocking utilities to games), and the mother of all heatsinks! If you look at most other GeForce4 Ti4600's, they feature no RAM sinks, and a solitary core fan. Leadtek obviously wanted to prove a point and increase the overclocking potential of the card, so they put on a massive heat sink that covers both the RAM and the core, and put two 30mm fans onto it. To cap it off, they put a passive heat sink on the back of the card (the same size as the front heat sink).
The performance of this card is unbelievable; like the other Ti4600 cards but doesn't have any real advantage over the other cards. Nearly all the cards these days are scoring within a few frames of each other. The real selling point of the card is its excellent overclockability. The massive heat sink and dual fans give it an edge over the other cards, which often don't even have RAM sinks.
The GeForce4 Ti4600 is without a doubt the leading video card on the market. If you're looking for performance and overclockability, you can't go past this Leadtek card.
However, if you want the performance without the overclocking ability and a much lower price, try the Sparkle GeForce4. If you're looking for features, the MSI GeForce4 is an excellent bet.
- Find the best price on Leadtek A250 Ultra!
- Leadtek A250 TDH (GeForce4 Ti4400)
This card is exactly the same as the one above, except it is classed as a Ti4400, which means it has a lower core/memory speed (see above for speeds). The performance on the card is excellent, but obviously not up to Ti4600 speeds. The overclocking of the card is also very good, but you won't be able to get the RAM to the same levels as a Ti4600 overclock, as this card runs slower 3.6ns memory.
Again, if you're after features, go the MSI route, and price is the Sparkle route. But if you want performance and excellent overclocking, the Leadtek is the card for you.

- GeForce3 Ti200
While the GeForce4 Ti4400 is an excellent price/performance card, it's still AUD$700 dollars, which is a lot of money. If you're after something that is a lot cheaper, but still provides excellent performance, then the GeForce3 Ti200 is for you.
The GeForce3 has the nfiniteFX engine, which supports programmable vertex and pixel shaders. This is the main reason the card was chosen over the cheaper GeForce4 MX as it gives the card DX8 hardware support, which the GeForce4 MX (all versions) lacks.
The GeForce3 also has the first incarnation of LMA, supports shadow buffers, and according to nVidia, the nfiniteFX engine of the GeForce3 gives consumers true 3D textures. When the GeForce4 MX was released, nVidia ceased production of the GeForce3 line. However, nearly all online stores still stock the Titanium versions, so supply shouldn't be an issue.
The best brands to go for include ASUS, Abit, Gainward, Hercules, Leadtek and MSI. The Hercules card will be very difficult to find as they switched camps to ATI a while ago, but they are worth getting if you can. All the other cards perform well and usually overclock well. The choice is yours; go for whichever one suits your budget and your desires for features.

Richard "Rick" Gallot, Jr. is an African American Democratic member of the Louisiana House of Representatives, who has represented the 11th District since the fall of 2000.
The district was established after the 1990 census to guarantee a black voter majority. Gallot won the position after the popular incumbent Pinkie C. Wilkerson of Grambling was killed on August 1, 2000, in a six-vehicle accident on Interstate 20 in Bossier City. At the time of her death, Wilkerson had been scheduled two weeks thereafter as a delegate to the 2000 Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles, California.
Gallot is ineligible to seek a fourth term in the Louisiana House in the nonpartisan blanket primary set for the fall of 2011. In the 2007 primary, he handily defeated the sister of Pinkie Wilkerson to win his third term in the legislative chamber. Gallot is also a member of the Gamma Psi chapter Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Incorporated.

Dangerous Ground is a 1997 thriller starring Ice Cube and Elizabeth Hurley. It was directed by Darrell Roodt and written by Greg Latter and Darrell Roodt.
The film opens in 1983, a young Vusi (Thokozani Nkosi) organizes a radical student protest that is soon put down by police, Vusi is captured and forced to leave for the U.S. where he settles down in the Bay Area.
14 years later Vusi returns to South Africa to attend his father's funeral at the village he grew up in but is unable to bring himself to slaughter a cow as part of the funeral ritual. Vusi's younger brother Ernest, a former soldier, constantly berates him for his choice to run away to America instead of take part in "the struggle", this angers Vusi who tells Ernest "i was in the struggle while you were still pissing in your pants." While talking with his mother Vusi wonders why his youngest brother Steven was not at the funeral, his mother admits that they have not seen Steven in a while but provide Vusi with two addresses and send him out to find Steven. The first address Vusi checks is Steven's apartment in Johannesburg, where he meets his brother's neighbor Karen (Elizabeth Hurley) and gives her his contact information if she should hear anything. While driving out of Soweto after checking the second address Vusi is confronted by three armed thugs who take his car, jacket, and shirt as well as break his father's spear he had been given. Later on at his hotel Vusi calls his fiancee to tell her what had happened when he receives a note from Karen telling him to meet her at The Summit Club.
At the club Vusi discovers Karen's occupation as a stripper and she tells him that she had been hearing noises coming from Steven's apartment, after the show the pair returns to the apartment complex and decides to check the room. Karen climbs along the outside of the building to Steven's open window where a thug attacks her and flees, knocking over Vusi in his escape, which causes him to wonder what is actually going on with Steven. Karen finally confesses that Steven had borrowed cocaine on "credit" from a drug dealer named Muki (Ving Rhames) to sell and make enough money for Karen and him to travel to the U.S. to visit Vusi but instead took the money and drugs for himself, with the truth finally revealed Karen suggests they check out the local clubs to see if they could find any leads. At a hard-rock club Vusi finds out about Karen's crack cocaine addiction after watching her take a hit from a pipe, he confronts her about possibly getting Steven hooked on it as well when they are accosted by white supremacist punks outside the club. Two of thugs pin Vusi to a wall at gunpoint while the leader of the gang hits Karen for associating with a "kaffir", Vusi is able to get the upper hand on the punks while Karen grabs the gun and gives it Vusi who holds the leader at gunpoint before knocking him out and pistol-whipping the other punk. Back at the apartment Karen asks Vusi to visit her drug dealer and purchase a gram of crack for her or she won't tell him anything else about Steven, Vusi reluctantly agrees.
Karen's drug dealer Sam is suspicious of Vusi but becomes relaxed when Vusi reveals that he knows Karen, prompting Sam to tell Vusi that Muki will not allow him to sell to Karen due to the fact that her and Steven may be working together to hide the money, so Sam charges an extra 50 dollars and tells Vusi to stay in the apartment. While Sam is gone Vusi answers the door to find Steven, who flees from him down an alley, and upon returning to the apartment is confronting by a switchblade-wielding Sam demanding to know why he left. Vusi pulls a gun and forces Sam over to the window, interrogating him on the whereabouts of Muki to which Sam replies "you don't find Muki, Muki finds you." and with that Vusi is given his money back as well as the drugs Karen asked for. Vusi heads back to Karen's where she becomes extremely paranoid upon learning that Vusi told Sam about Steven being his brother, figuring Muki would find out they leave and go to Vusi's hotel room. The next morning after Vusi drops Karen off back at her apartment he is confronted by one of Muki's men in his car, the car is stopped by more of Muki's men and Vusi is captured and put in the trunk of one of the cars. Vusi is taken to meet with Muki at a soccer stadium, where Muki tells Vusi about his brother's massive debt of 45,000 rand, a debt that would be the cost to have the entire Madlazi family killed however if Vusi is able to bring him 15,000 U.S. dollars in two days he will spare Steven's life.
Karen tells Vusi that Steven headed for Sun City in order to gamble back the money he needs in order to pay back the debt, so the pair head out for the casino. Finally arriving at the casino after driving through an AWB rally Karen and Vusi split up to search the casino, while playing on a slot machine Karen is approached by Steven who immediately asks her for some cocaine, but becomes sad when Karen tells him about the death of his father. Steven tells her that he only managed to make back 2,000 of the 45 he owes Muki, but still has 5 grams of Muki's product stashed away, so Karen heads up to Steven's room where he shoots up over half a gram of crack into his arm. Vusi finds Steven and becomes angry at Karen for allowing his brother to become an addict, but he calms down and the trio leaves the casino.
Vusi is only able to get 14,100 to pay back Muki, but the trio heads off to the hotel to pay him back anyway. Steven yells at Muki for trashing his apartment, but is told to shut up by Vusi, Muki is pleased with the money Vusi was able to bring him and Vusi promises to have the rest to him by the next day. Muki tells Steven that the word is out that people can "fuck" with Muki and that he must send a message despite their deal, so Muki shoots Steven with Vusi's gun that was confiscated on the way in. A man in the apartment, who is revealed to be a detective sergeant, is disgusted at Muki's actions and while Steven's body is moved out Muki takes a large hit from a bong he offered to Steven before shooting him. Steven's corpse is brought back to the village for burial and Vusi recruits Ernest to help him take revenge on Muki, while in the village Vusi's spear is also repaired and he finally is able to slaughter a goat as part of Steven's funeral, and Ernest leads Vusi and Karen to a weapons cache he had buried. With the weapons to take their revenge the trio goes back to Sam's apartment, where under threat of torture, they convince Sam to help them by carrying in a bomb that Ernest had put in a present box.
At Muki's, Sam attempts to warn Muki's men of the bomb in the box but it goes off and kills Sam as well as the two men guarding the door. As Vusi and Ernest move through the apartment killing Muki's thugs Vusi is nearly shot by Muki's wife, but is able to see her drawing a gun and kills her. Ernest checks a back room only to be jumped by the drug-crazed Muki who holds him hostage in order to get Vusi to drop his weapons, he drops his gun and sees Karen coming up behind Muki, she lets off a burst with her rifle into the ceiling giving Vusi an opportunity to get close to Muki and stab him with his father's spear. Muki is stabbed three time in the stomach and falls out a window onto a car below, the trio flees the building as police show up to investigate the scene. At the end of the film Vusi convinces his fiancee to come to South Africa and live in his village, she agrees to be on a plane there as soon as possible, and Karen considers checking into a rehab facility for her addiction, but Vusi suggests she come live with them to get some fresh air away from Johannesburg.

littleturtle's Note:
A traditional Hungarian dessert. Many sugary balls of coffee cake dough, studded with raisins and coated with cinnamon and nuts in a syrup-like glaze on the outside. Similar to monkey bread. This recipe is not a quick one. Yeast is used in the dough, so it does take 2 1/2-3 hours for the dough to rise. This does freeze well for later use.
My Private Note
Units: US | Metric
- 4 3/4-5 cups flour, sifted
- 1/2 cup whole milk, scalded (to scald milk heat in the top of a double-boiler over simmering water, just until a thin film appear)
- 4 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm water (110-115 F)
- 1/2 cup shortening
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 eggs, well beaten
- 1 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup walnuts, finely chopped (about 3 ounces)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 cup sweet butter, melted
- 1/2 cup raisins (about 2.5 ounces)
- 1Soften yeast in warm water and let stand 5-10 minutes so that it proofs.
- 2In a large bowl, combine shortening, 1/2 cup sugar, and salt, then immediately pour scalded milk over mixture.
- 3While mixture is warm, mix in 1/2 cup flour and beat until dough is smooth.
- 4Stir the yeast, then add it to the dough, mixing well.
- 5Add half of the remaining flour and beat until dough is very smooth.
- 6Beat in the eggs and enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough.
- 7Turn dough out on lightly floured surface and let rest 5-10 minutes.
- 8Knead by folding opposite side over towards you, then using the heels of your hands to push the dough away, then give it a quarter turn and repeat process until smooth and elastic (5-10 minutes) (always turn the dough in the same direction and use as little additional flour as possible).
- 9Form dough into a large ball and place in a greased bowl.
- 10Turn the ball over so that the surface on the top is greased and cover bowl with waxed paper and a towel.
- 11Let rise in warm place (80°F) until doubled in bulk (1 1/2-2 hours).
- 12Punch dough down with fist, pull the edges into the center, and turn ball over inside the bowl.
- 13Cover bowl and let dough rise until nearly doubled again in bulk.
- 14Meanwhile, lightly grease the bottom of a 10-inch tubed pan.
- 15In a shallow dish combine 1 cup sugar, nuts, and cinnamon and set aside.
- 16Place melted butter in another shallow dish and set aside.
- 17Tear off bits of dough and form into balls 1-1 1/4-inch in diameter (about the size of walnuts).
- 18Roll balls first in melted butter, then lightly in the cinnamon mixture.
- 19Arrange a layer of balls in the bottom of the pan so that they don't touch each other.
- 20Sprinkle about 1/3 of the raisins over the balls and gently press into the dough.
- 21Continue this process until all of the dough is formed into balls and arranged in the pan and all of the raisins have been used up.
- 22Sprinkle any remaining butter and cinnamon mixture over the top layer.
- 23Cover pan with waxed paper and towel and let dough rise until light (30-45 minutes).
- 24Bake at 375°F until golden brown (35-40 minutes).
- 25Run spatula around sides of pan and invert onto a plate.
- 26To serve, break cake apart with 2 forks.

The Singapore women's team retained the gold medal in the Commonwealth Games table tennis, blanking India 3-0 in the final at the Yamuna Sports Complex here on Friday.
Indian men's team, the defending champion, failed to raise its game a notch higher and lost 3-1 to a resurgent England in the semifinals. India will meet Nigeria for the bronze.
Playing against a team with five players in the top 25 in the world must have been a learning experience for the Indian women. To be fair, the Indian eves played with a free mind, knowing pretty well that it could be nigh impossible to defeat the world champion. So they did what they know best — fight hard.
Mouma Das took a game against World No.3 Tianwei Feng in the first match while Shamini lost in three straight games to Yuegu Wang (world No.5). In the second rubber, Poulomi Ghatak took a game off Jiawei Li (World No.23) in the third and last match.
Early advantage
England's victory over India was as much psychological as anything else. After Sharath Kamal's drubbing of teenager Liam Pitchford that gave India a head-start, it was left to Amalraj to find a way to beat Paul Drinkhall, ranked 59 places above him at 122, in the second rubber. Amalraj did match the 19-year-old stroke for stroke after a nervous beginning. Slowly and steadily, the Indian clawed his way back twice from arrears to take the match to the fifth game.
Leading 5-0, Amalraj was given a point penalty for wrong service and then again at 10-5 for the same reason. Tension gripped Amalraj even as Drinkhall kept attacking from the back of the table with immaculate accuracy, and Amalraj began to panic. He lost six straight points to lose the tie.
Though fully recovered from the right shoulder injury, Subhajit Saha, replacing Soumyadeep Roy, was not at his best in the third rubber against Andrew Baggaley, who has been a Games medalist in the '02 and '06 editions. Saha succumbed meekly 11-4, 12-10, 11-8.
With the tie heavily loaded (1-2) in favour of England, India looked up to Sharath to show the way. The top-ranked Indian sparkled in patches, but it was Drinkhall who dominated the proceedings. His blocks and attacking play from the back provided little chance to Sharath.
The 11-9, 11-5, 10-12, 11-4 victory put England in the final where it will take on Singapore.
"Amalraj's match was very crucial. He could have set the momentum for us. But Drinkhall played really well. He was determined as the momentum was with them," a crestfallen Sharath said.

Poe: A Life Cut Short.
A concise new biography marks the 200th birthday of Edgar Allen Poe.
Hippocrates's classic pronouncement that life is short but art is long could have been coined with Edgar Allan Poe in mind. Although he died in 1849 at age 40, his literary legacy endures – not just in lugubrious stories and poems like "The Tell-Tale Heart" and "Annabel Lee," but in his influence on literature, including 19th-century French Romantic poetry and detective and science fiction.
Just in time for the bicentennial of Poe's January 19, 1809, birth, master biographer Peter Ackroyd – born 100 years after Poe's death – has written the brief but still amply detailed Poe: A Life Cut Short.
Ackroyd has demonstrated his adeptness at distilling masses of information with lively, full-gore biographies of such long-gone literary lights as T.S. Eliot, Charles Dickens, William Blake, and Thomas More. In "Poe," he provides a pared-down but rich portrait of a productive but dismal existence.
Poe dwelt, like the narrator of his poem "Eulalie," "in a world of moan" against a backdrop of "midnights dreary" not unlike that in his most famous poem, "The Raven." Ackroyd writes, "He was dogged by poverty, and cursed by lack of success.... His entire life was a series of setbacks, of disappointed hopes and thwarted ambitions."
Setbacks that started in childhood
He breathed the "air of menace and fatality" from early childhood. By the time he was three, he'd lost both parents, travelling actors, leaving him with "feelings of utter abandonment," which, along with an association of death with beauty, would become a leitmotif in his work. As an adult he would be burdened with an unfortunate inclination to seek nurture from dark-haired consumptives like his mother, even as he battled a predilection for alcohol inherited from his father.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Former Pavement leader Stephen Malkmus is one of the only performers I can think of whose solo records are of equal quality as those of his former band. Most people go solo and lack the power that they once had. (Every now and then, you find someone who gets better after going solo. Bjork's records have more resonance than her records with the Sugarcubes, but that's an isolated case.) In Malkmus' case, it all seems to run in a straight line, from 1992′s classic "Slanted and Enchanted" all the way to this album, "Real Emotional Trash," his fourth post-Pavement record. Sure, there are differences. Pavement's songs were usually quick little crunching power-nuggets (think of the 18 tracks packed onto "Wowee Zowee") whereas the Malkmus records tend to jam out with more prog-y and jam-rock touches. But it all remains the same. He is a cult hero now for the same reasons he always was. He's the perfect storm. He's got a lot of winning qualities. Sometimes he's got a similarly wacky stream-of-thought lyrical method as Beck, sometimes he comes off as a similarly garbled (but much, much happier) cousin to Kurt Cobain and he's always got the same, lanky, effortless cool of Thurston Moore. The coolest new development in Malkmus' backup band, the Jicks, is the new arrival of former Sleater-Kinney drummer Janet Weiss, who replaces John Moen, who has now been drafted by the Decemberists. Weiss makes her presence known right from the get-go. Her drums are right at the center of the opening track "Dragonfly Pie," attacking with the kind of force that made her former band's full-throttle swan song, "The Woods" such a hard-hitting indie-rock classic. If you aren't prepared, Malkmus' songs can seem rather dizzying (especially on this record) but give it a few listens and your ears will fall into line. There's also a pseudo-psychedelic, long winded vibe. (The album's title track is over ten minutes long. Has Malkmus been listening to old Traffic records?) When "Hopscotch Willie" jams out, it gets a crusty Santana-via-Allman Brothers vibe. Unlike all the groups mentioned above, though, you get the sense that Malkmus has never taken himself too seriously, especially when he is repeating the word "hopscotch" over and over again. There's an underlying, built-in, winking sarcasm to his tone which may make this record bearable for those people who don't normally like such extended jams. The whole album is full of ornate guitar-work. However, some tracks are flashier than others. After "Dragonfly Pie" and "Hopscotch Willie," "Cold Son" seems much more straight-forward.
"Out of Reaches" is a mid-tempo gem so catchy that by the second chorus, you'll probably be singing along to Malkmus' "Out! Out! Out! Out of Reaches!" This is a potential single that Adult Alternative radio would be all over. When it ends with him singing, "I know the tide will turn" over and over again, though it is cryptic, you believe in his sense of optimism. "Baltimore" is another highlight. The riffage gives it a sense of drama, while distant background vocals give it an angelic feel. When it changes tempo at just before the 3-minute mark, you wish you had a lighter to raise. At 2:53, "Gardenia" reminds us what a smart craftsman Malkmus is in a shorter form. With its sing-song-y "ba-ba-ba" background vocals provided by Weiss and bassist Joanna Bolme, along with its semi-comical shout-outs to Richard Avedon, it is the most digestible track here. By Malkmus' standards, this is finger-snapping pop candy, and because it is jam-packed with wit, it becomes all the sweeter. "Elmo Delmo" returns us to a more experimental setting, but this seems to be one of the band's specialties. It's hard to think of another band from today who can rock out so righteously. Only Wilco's recent work comes to mind. In the middle of the track when keyboardist Mike Clark throws in a swirling keyboard pattern, you can almost imagine a rainbow of bright, whirling colors. Like "Gardenia," "We Can Help You" is another quick number assisted by female la-la-la-style background vocals. There's a great friendliness to such touches. Amid a record full of complexity, such sudden simplicity is comforting and familiar. Perhaps this kind of balance is Malkmus' secret formula. When something similar happens on the longer closer, "Wicked Wanda," you are completely a believer that Malkmus and his band are among the finest indie-rock has to offer. Like all the Pavement records and the Malkmus records before it, "Real Emotional Trash" is a no-holds-barred classic. No matter how complex the compositions are, Malkmus and his band just make it look so effortless. If you are down with the easy-going mood of the record, they knock most of their peers clean out of the water. Malkmus is one of the most unsung, skilled guitarists around on top of everything else. After years in the game, it is evident that Stephen Malkmus still can rock quite substantially. Quite simply, even at their silliest, Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks flat-out rule!

TripAdvisor Reviews Le Soleil Beach Club Kikambala
Travel Blogs from Kikambala
Is this my life?
We are at the beach this weekend; just
north of Mombasa at the most charming bungalow getaway. It's the
same one where we came on my birthday last month.
So what has been going on in the past
two weeks? A lot. I had to look through my journal to see what's
been occurring because the days just seem to run together. Here are
some disjointed exerpts:
My host dad has been working as motor
bike driver (illegally of course-most ...
It's a long one- pace yourself
As I sit here at my hotel in Mombasa, I can't help but think back to the past three days of incredibly intense experiences. Today, has been an amazing day- also my birthday so it works out ;) Universe always delivers.
So let me back up.
I was dropped in my village on Saturday. My house mother looks all of 17, but she can't be because she has a 10 year old, but regardless she's young. Charro is my house father, then the kids ...
I have arrived
Friday June 15
I set my alarm for 8:10 this morning-delirium from lack of sleep led me to believe that I would
actually need it. How did I forget that life in developing nations begins when the sun rises and the sound of it doesn't afford one to sleep in? I am more tired than I think I have ever been with the reason being other than exhaustion from physical exertion. We had been traveling for nearly 30 hours when we arrived so we ...
You're my butterfly, sugar baby!
... br> So the alcohol chase is still on! (makes me sound like an alcoholic ... this is only for my cellar&friends!)
Better get off now... tomorrow will be a long day! I am off to Mombasa (and I am very excited about it)!
I will probably only report back the day after...
I'll use the time as well to give some feedback to Cheeky Kathi (the book is a dream come true for nutters like me!)
Kwa heri!
A hospital to forget...
Sunday 8th February 2012
For various reasons there are no photos of what we witnessed today. But have put other photos up from outside the hospital and Kikambala Feeding station. We left at 8am and Lesley took in what she had missed in the dark on the way from Mombasa to Shimba Hills. I could see her face change as she witnessed the poverty and buildings of Ukunda and Likoni on the way to Mombasa. Again no waiting for the ferry, ...

I have been working at Quanta Services full-time
ProsThe people at Quanta are great, and there's definitely a team mentality. The company's performance and growth is very strong, and there are always new and interesting projects to work on. Upper management is committed to providing necessary resources to the various departments to ensure people have the tools they need to succeed. The company has also recently updated the bonus program to focus more on individual and department performance, rather than overall company performance.
ConsPaid time off is limited to two weeks. The financial reporting system is a bit outdated, although there is a plan in place to upgrade soon.
Advice to ManagementAdviceManagement should consider giving more flexibility to each department to manage their own time off and flexible work arrangement policies. Annual employee reviews, along with employee satisfaction surveys and anonymous feedback might also help decrease turnover.

They will then compare their estimates to the actual data from the CERES instrument. This lesson uses student- and citizen science-friendly microsets of authentic NASA Earth system science data from the MY NASA DATA project. It also includes related links, lesson extensions, an online glossary, and data analysis tools. (View Less)
This is an activity about the phases of Venus and the planet's variance in angular size as seen from Earth. Learners will use an online program such as Solar System Live to determine Venus's distance from Earth for one half of its cycle. This... (View More) activity requires access to the Solar System Update software and a computer with Internet access. This is Solar System Activity 6 in a larger resource, Space Update. (View Less)
In this activity, students engage in an ongoing investigation to find patterns of sunlight and shadow in a classroom (or any room that gets sunlight) at different times of the day and different times of the year. Students look for repeating... (View More) patterns, keep a log to describe and sketch observations of when and where certain easily recognized patters appear and turn the room into a solar calendar that may survive into the future for other classes to use. Part 1 of this activity requires occasional note-taking and casual observation over the course of a day. Part 2 requires 30-60 minutes to create the calendar record, then casual observation and note-taking throughout the school year. The lesson plan includes a math extension activity and background information about the Sun Dagger at Chaco Canyon. This activity is the third lesson in the Ancient Eyes Look to the Skies curriculum guide. (View Less)
This is an activity about the properties and characteristics of Earth's magnetic field as shown through magnetometer data and its 3D vector nature. This resource builds understanding of conceptual tools such as the addition of vectors and... (View More) interpreting contour maps displaying magnetic signature data. Learners will make several paper 3D vector addition models, watch podcasts on how to analyze magnetometer data, and employ 3D vector plots to create a model of the 3D magnetic field in the location of the magnetometer closest to their town. This is a multi-step activity with corresponding worksheets for each step. The activity uses data from the THEMIS (Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms) GEONS magnetometer, and requires the use of a computer with internet access and speakers, 2-inch polystyrene balls and bamboo skewers. This is activity 16 from Exploring Magnetism: Earth's Magnetic Personality. (View Less)
In this activity, students produce a land cover map of a 15 km x 15 km GLOBE study site from hard copies of Landsat satellite images. Students place clear transparencies over the Landsat TM images and use markers to outline and classify areas of... (View More) different land cover using the MUC System. Students use their local expertise of their GLOBE study site and their sample site measurements to create and assess the accuracy of their maps. The resource includes a sample Landsat image, an example of an accuracy assessment work sheet, and a difference-error matrix to validate the degree of accuracy of the student product. This resource is a procedural tutorial supporting the protocol within the Land Cover/Biology chapter of the GLOBE Teacher's Guide. (View Less)
