Baseball Lions take two from Wiley
Dossey, Chitty earn wins in relief
SAGU hosts four home games this week
WAXAHACHIE, Texas -- Driven by full sails gained from a bottom-of-the-ninth, come-from-behind win on Friday, the Southwestern Assemblies of God University baseball team took both ends of a Saturday doubleheader from Wiley College.
The Lions, now 13-16, are 3-6 in the Red River Athletic Conference. The sweep of a league opponent was the first in five years (3-0 series sweep of Univ. of the Southwest, March 2008). The team had lost its last 14 series to RRAC teams until Saturday.
SAGU won the first game of the twinbill, 6-5, scoring a solo run in the bottom of the ninth. The Purple Pride overcame a five-run fifth inning by the Wildcats, which had put them in arrears by a 5-2 count.
In the nightcap the hosts overcame a 2-0 deficit with two in the second and three more in the fifth en route to a 6-2 triumph.
Second year Head Coach Jon Shockley praised the team for battling and for their performances on the mound and on defense.
"The guys were resilient," he said. "They never stopped fighting and finished strong in all three games."
"A week ago we gave up too many runs (against Northwood University) to count," he added. "This weekend we held a good team to 10 runs."
"Plus," he continued, "we had three different freshmen pitchers collect their first collegiate wins. Today we only allowed runs in two of the 16 innings. The guys scored the last four runs in the first game today and the final six in the second game."
On Friday, sophomore Rockie Davis (Santa Fe, Tx / Santa Fe HS) had a quality start, taking the team into the eighth inning before departing. Micah Thompson (Waco, Tx / Gatesville HS) got the win when SAGU rallied for three in the bottom of the ninth for a 4-3 victory.
Game One: Thomas has 4 hits, Davis drives in winner
Playing in weather only a duck would enjoy, the Lions overcame steady, light rain with a late rally for another win in the first game on Saturday.
The Lions were cruising with a 2-0 lead when they failed to execute a suicide squeeze bunt in the bottom of the fourth. With the bases loaded and one out, a missed bunt cost them the lead runner. Two strikes later the threat fizzled (on a strike out) and the Wiley bench came alive.
The momentum had switched teams, and 6'7 starter Jarrod Pisors (Red Oak, Tx / Red Oak HS) couldn't contain the suddenly energized visitors' bench.
He had blanked the Wildcats through four, permitting four hits while fanning four.
A double to left, a walk, and a bunt single loaded the bases for Wiley. A single between shortstop and third got the 'Cats on the scoreboard.
A single down the third base line bounded high over Taylor Froelich's (Lee's Summit, Mo / Central Christian College, West HS) head, driving in two. A sacrifice fly and hit up the middle capped the scoring surge.
Justin Dossey (Aubrey, Tx / Aubrey HS), a 6'2 strong-armed right-hander came in and shut down the Wildcats over the next four innings, buying the offense time to chip away at the three-run debt.
Jared Denton (Mission, Tx / Sharyland HS) drove a deep fly to score Garrett Thomas (Red Oak, Tx / Red Oak HS), who led off the inning with one of his four hits.
Sporting white jerseys, the Lions tacked on two more runs in the sixth to knot the score at five.
Davis' grounder to second skirted low and through the five-hole to start the frame. He swiped second, but back-to-back strike outs appeared to squealch the threat.
Leadoff hitter Jacob Spivey (Georgetown, Tx / Harker Heights HS) made up for his failed bunt in the fourth with a big time shot, a two-bagger down the rightfield line to score Davis. It came on a 1-2 pitch.
Thomas got the equalizer when he also ripped a double, this one narrowly fair along the left field line.
The inning could've produced the lead, but a Billy Mee (Fayetteville, NC / Copperas Cove HS) liner was snared by a leaping third baseman for the last out.
SAGU loaded the bases in the bottom of the ninth on a single to center by Mee, who then advanced to second when Wiley's pitcher made an errant throw on a sacrifice bunt attempt by Froelich.
Speedster Colten Conner (Flower Mound, Tx / Flower Mound HS) was inserted to run for Mee. Denton, the co-captain, then stroked an 0-2 pitch to left to fill the bags.
One out later, Davis stepped in and stepped up.
He poked a 1-1 pitch over the infield into shallow center as Conner trotted home with the winning tally.
The Lions outhit Wiley, 13-10, with Thomas going 4-for-5. He scored twice, knocked in a pair of runs and had six total bases.
He has clearly risen to the occasion since moving to shortstop a week ago.
Froelich (FRAY-lik) and Denton each registered two hits.
Dossey (DAW-see) tossed four innings, permitting a lone hit and no runs to collect the win. He walked one and whiffed three.
Game Two: Chitty stars on the mound, Denton, Froelich at the plate
The second game saw a third successive comeback.
Freshman Hayden Killebrew (Red Oak, Tx / Red Oak HS) left after just two innings with an undisclosed back injury. He was touched for two scores on two singles and a pair of walks.
SAGU quickly answered to tie the score in their half of the second.
Froelich and Denton got passes to first and then both advanced on a passed ball.
Bryant Threadgill (Whiteright, Tx / Dallas Christian College, Whiteright HS) followed with a smash to the third-baseman. It darted through his wickets, sending in both runners.
Jeremy Cross (Americus, Ga / Harker Heights HS) and Spivey scampered across the dish on singles by Thomas (to centerfield) and Denton (left) to give Southwestern a 4-2 advantage.
Froelich also scored, though his was a memorable moment. On base thanks to an infield error, he was nearly picked off by the pitcher. The throw to first was wide, rolling along the rightfield fence.
It allow him to get up after diving into first. He then ran... well, lumbered... around second and towards third where Third Base coach Andrew Rickman was waving like a NASCAR flagman. Froelich headed home, beating the relay with a head-first slide (photo above).
He got up and was smiling like a butcher's dog while greeted by a host of teammates.
The Lions got an insurance run in the sixth. Spivey singled to left, swiped second and advanced to third on a ground ball to the right side. He trotted home when Froelich jumped on the first pitch with a shot to left.
Both teams managed just six hits, with the Lions' first six batters in the order each registering one. Spivey and Froelich scored twice. SAGU had just two runs batted in, by Mee and Froelich. Errors contributed to the other scores.
The hero of the game was likely Montana Chitty (Lake Worth, Tx / Lake Worth HS), a freshman righty. Known for his sense of humor, the burly 6'2 Chitty was all-business on Saturday.
He went five innings of scoreless relief, yielding four hits and no walks. He fanned five in a performance that saw him throw just 50 pitches, 36 of them for strikes.
After a 1-2-3 third inning in which he whiffed two, Eduardo Fernandez blasted a leadoff double off the fence in left.
Chitty retired the next batter on a liner to Davis in center, and then punched out the next two on four pitches apiece, stranding Fernandez at third.
In the sixth he gave up a leadoff single to the clean-up batter, Alibay Barkley. Nursing a 5-2 lead, Chitty then gloved a come-backer, pivoted and turned it into a 1-6-3 double play.
In the seventh, he sat the Wildcats down in order on a groundout to Thomas and two flies to Denton in left.
A day that started with grey skies and dreary conditions, ended with a setting sun and a job very well done by the home team.
Schreiner visits on Tuesday afternoon
SAGU returns to the campus field on Tuesday for a game against NCAA D3 member, Schreiner University (Kerrville, Tx).
The 6-15 Mountaineers split a double-dip with Cardinal Stritch University (Milwaukee, Wisc) on Saturday, winning 8-1, and then losing to the NAIA Wolves, 5-4.
The Lions will host a three-game set, on campus, with Texas College next weekend. The teams will play a 4:00pm game on Friday, then a noon doubleheader the next day.
The Steers had an impressive showing at Northwood University over the weekend.
The 'Horns lost the first and third games, 5-1 and 8-6, and won the middle contest by a 9-8 count. They took 2-of-3 from Jarvis Christian College the weekend before.
SAGU went 0-6 against those teams, and are 2-7 in games with Texas College over the past four seasons.

Description This invention relates generally to test fixtures for high frequency packages and interconnects and, more specifically, to a test fixture using the external reflection coefficients of a beam lead PIN diode at different bias states to determine the electrical parameters of such packages and interconnects. Monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) packaging and interconnects have a significant effect on the electrical performance of high frequency systems such as microwave systems and thus it is important to characterize microwave transitions independently of the embedded circuits. In general, three different techniques have been developed for performing such characterizations of MMIC packaging and interconnects. The first technique determines bolometer mount efficiency by using radio frequency (RF) measurements of a barretter at different bias states to calculate the efficiency (Powerout /Powerin) of the mount. This is accomplished by varying the DC voltage on the bolometer mount and then computing the efficiency from the barretter resistance and the reflection coefficient for each DC operating point. One disadvantage is that the technique does not provide any information with respect to the scattering parameters (S-parameters) of the transition, and such S-parameter information is more useful to an engineer than the efficiency of the device. This technique is discussed in G. F. Engen, A Bolometer Mount Efficiency Measurement Technique, Journal of Research of the National Bureau of Standards, vol. 65C, no. 2, April-June 1961. The second, and most popular, technique is to solder or epoxy into the MMIC package a test fixture which utilizes a single transmission line as a standard. By using only one line, the amount of information that can be obtained is limited and not enough information is provided to fully characterize the package transitions. To augment the information provided, a mathematical model must be created for the package in order to determine the S-parameters. Further, the use of a straight transmission line imposes two physical restrictions on the device being tested. First, the distance between the transitions must remain fixed for all devices being characterized. Second, the orientation of the transitions must be symmetrical about the axis of the line. These two restrictions impose the requirements that the number of transitions in a package must be even and a transition must be located opposite another transition at a fixed distance. This technique is discussed in P. B. Ross and B. D. Geller, A Broadband Microwave Test Fixture, Microwave Journal, Vol. 30, No. 5, May 1987, pp. 233-248. The third technique uses a least-squares de-embedding algorithm to characterize microwave transitions from measured S-parameters. The characterization procedure outlined in the literature uses multiple insertions into the package. In many cases, however, the standards need to be soldered or epoxied into the package or interconnect. This makes insertion difficult and the use of multiple standards impractical. Multiple insertions also degrade the accuracy of the package or interconnect characterization. This technique is discussed in R. F. Bauer and P. Penfield, De-embedding and Unterminating, IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, vol. MTT-22, no. 3, pp. 282-288, March 1974. Several U.S. patents disclose test fixtures which use the second technique discussed above in the characterization of high frequency circuits. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,947,111 (Higman et al.) discloses a test fixture comprising a conductive alignment plate having a plurality of apertures therein which match the signal conductor pins of the MMIC package. Signal conductor pins pass through the apertures and form sections of a transmission line. The apertures are sized such that the impedance of these sections of the transmission line effectively matches the 50 ohm resistance of the internal interconnect to the MMICs within the package. U.S. Pat. No. 4,980,636 (Romanofsky et al.) discloses a MMIC test fixture having a support structure which is spring biased for testing MMIC chips. A set of calibration standards are provided. U.S. Pat. No. 4,897,601 (Hirsch et al.) discloses an apparatus for providing an RF contact between the ground plane surface of a MMIC chip and a test fixture. The apparatus utilizes a single transmission line to provide calibration standards for the MMIC chips. U.S. Pat. No. 5,051,810 (Katoh) discloses a semiconductor device for performing frequency characteristic tests. The semiconductor has a substrate that includes input, output and grounding electrode pads which provide contact points for a probe needle of a conventional high frequency wafer probe. U.S. Pat. No. 4,704,872 (Jones) discloses a thermally controlled transmit/receive (T/R) module test apparatus which enables acquiring MMIC T/R module data, such as S-parameters and noise figure as a function of thermal cycling. In accordance with the invention, a characterization test fixture is provided which uses a single active device, preferably a beam lead PIN diode, to determine the electrical characteristics, e.g., the S-parameters, of a MMIC package or interconnect. The fixture is capable of providing, in effect, multiple standards with only a single insertion of the fixture and without fixing the port-to-port distance. In accordance with a preferred embodiment, the test fixture comprises a U-shaped conductive ground plane having parallel arms defining a space therebetween. A center conductor is located in the space and is disposed in spaced relationship to the arms of the ground plane. A beam lead PIN diode is connected to the center conductor at one end thereof and to the ground plane at the other. An external variable DC voltage source is used to vary the bias state of the diode so that, when the fixture is inserted into a package or interconnect, reflection coefficient measurements for the different bias states can be obtained by an automatic network analyzer for use in calculations for determining the characteristics in question. Other features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in, or apparent from, the following detailed description of preferred embodiments of the invention. FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a characterization test fixture constructed in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention; FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram which models the test fixture of FIG. 1; and FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b ) are Smith Charts of the measured and modeled reflection coefficients of the test fixture of FIG. 1. Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown a MMIC test fixture 10 which basically comprises a MMIC launch 14 and a beam lead PIN diode 24. The probe head 12 is a conventional high frequency wafer probe which utilizes three micrometers to provide electrical connection between the microwave circuit and the MMIC launch 14. In a preferred embodiment, the probe head 12 is a commercially available probe head manufactured by Cascade Microtech of Beaverton, Oreg. To provide for the passage of RF energy from the microwave circuit to the MMIC launch 14, three conductive contacts, denoted 16, 18 and 20, respectively, are provided. Additionally, a coaxial connector 21 permits the RF energy signal to be displayed upon a conventional Automatic Network Analyzer (not shown). The MMIC launch 14 comprises a planar member made of a conductive material, preferably an alumina substrate with a thin layer of gold film precoated thereon. A calibration set (not shown) and the MMIC launch 14 can be fabricated by etching the gold film off of the substrate. The launch 14 includes a center conductor 22 which is attached at one end to conductive contact 18. The other end of conductor 22 is connected to a beam lead PIN diode 24. In an exemplary embodiment, the center conductor 22 is 150 μm wide. Diode 24 is oriented so that the anode of diode 24 is connected to conductor 22 and the cathode of diode 24 is connected to the central portion of a U-shaped ground plane 26. A variable DC bias voltage source 28 is connected to the contact 18 (positive) and contact 16 (negative) as indicated schematically by connector 30 and 31, respectively. Source 28 is used to apply an adjustable DC bias voltage to diode 24. Ground plane 26 is a U-shaped planar structure having parallel arms 32 and 34 which engage conductive contacts 16 and 20, respectively. The arms 32 and 34 are laterally spaced from the center conductor 22 and thus there is an air gap 36 on either side of conductor 22. In a preferred embodiment, each air gap 36 is 65 μm wide. Because RF energy must be transferred between the microwave circuit and MMIC launch 14, impedance matching is required. This is accomplished in launch 14 by selecting the width of the air gaps 36 and the width of the center conductor 22 such that a nominal impedance of 50 Ω is provided. It should be noted that the dimensions of the air gaps 36 and conductor 22 may be varied as long as the proper matching resistance is maintained and the center conductor 22 is made wide enough to allow the lead of diode 24 to be connected to the conductor 22. FIG. 2 illustrates an equivalent circuit of the MMIC launch 14 and the diode 24 used to model the MMIC test fixture reflection coefficient and to extrapolate the performance of the preferred embodiment thereof to higher frequencies. The MMIC launch 14 is modeled as coplanar waveguide (CPW) having a length which is dependent upon the location of the measurement reference plane MRPI discussed below, a width of 150 μm, and a gap of 65 μm. The diode 24 is modeled as a series junction resistance, labeled R1 and having a value of 4 Ω, a shunt junction capacitance of 0.022 pF and labeled C1, and a DC bias-dependent resistance, labeled R2. The selected values used for R2 are 0Ω, 47.5 Ω, and ∞ when the diode 24 is forward, intermediate, and reverse biased, respectively. The leads of the diode 24 were modeled as two coplanar waveguides having a length of 175 μm, a width of 150 μm, and a gap of 65 μm, and are denoted 38 (anode) and 40 (cathode) in FIG. 2, while elements 44 and 42 are the respective ground planes. The CPW short is modeled as an inductance L1 and has a value of 0.035 nH. FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b) illustrate on respective Smith charts the measured and modeled reflection coefficients when the diode 24 is in a forward biased state (represented by squares), an intermediate biased state (represented by diamonds), and a reverse biased state (represented by crosses). During the testing, the variable DC bias voltage source 28 was set at 1.03 V and 6.78 mA, 0.7 V and 0.015 mA, and -6 V for the forward bias, intermediate bias, and reverse bias states, respectively. As can be seen from FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b), the fit between the measured and modeled reflection coefficients of the diode 24 are quite good, except for the intermediate resistive state at very low frequencies. This discrepancy is due to charge storage effects which are not taken into account in the model of FIG. 2. The model predicts that the three bias states will remain widely separated on the Smith chart until about 80 GHz. This indicates that the MMIC test fixture 1 will be accurate up to about 80 Ghz but may be unsuitable for de-embedding at higher frequencies. The de-embedding procedure will fail if the reflection coefficient of the diode 24 changes upon being soldered (via contacts 16, 18 and 20) into the package. An experiment was performed to test for the stability of the beam lead PIN diode 24 with respect to temperature cycling. The experiment began by measuring the reflection coefficient, in a conventional manner, for forward biased, unbiased, and intermediate biased states. The refection coefficients were calculated using a CPW calibration set and the least-squares de-embedding algorithm referred to above, then the absolute value of the difference was calculated from the first measurement. The results from the above step, conducted at a frequency of 40 GHz, is tabulated in the first row of Table 1 set forth below (the CONTROL row). After performing the control measurement, the diode 24 was temperature cycled twice. A peak temperature of about 300� C. was maintained for at least one minute during the first cycle and a peak temperature of 290� C. was maintained for 20 minutes during the second cycle. After each temperature cycle, the reflection coefficients were measured and the absolute value of difference between the first and this measurement was calculated. This calculated value is tabulated in Table 1 in the second and third rows, respectively. This process was repeated for three other diodes. The first diode tested was a gallium arsenide beam lead PIN diode while the rest were silicon beam lead PIN diodes.

No Bias 0.013 0.033 0.030 0.015cycle______________________________________ As may be seen from Table 1, all of the diodes that were tested exhibit excellent temperature stability and thus, the de-embedding procedure is not affected by the change in temperature since the reflection coefficient of the diode 24 and the mount thereof do not change upon being soldered into the MMIC package. Another important criterion for an active standard is linearity. If the power at which the reflection coefficient is measured is too high, the microwave impedance of the diode 24 will shift as the incident power changes which will, in turn, cause the de-embedding procedure to fail. Calibrations and measurements were performed at several incident power levels and it was found that the reflection coefficients of the diodes deviated from their extrapolated small signal value by less than 0.1% when the incident power was decreased to -30 dBm. This 0.1% deviation is acceptable and will not significantly affect the de-embedding procedure. The possibility of errors being introduced by incident light falling upon the diode 24 was also investigated. An estimated 730 mW/cm2 of white light incident on the wafer changed the magnitude of the reflection coefficient of the diode 24 by only 2.3�10-5. This change is negligible and suggests that typical lighting will not significantly affect the diode impedance. As explained above the MMIC test fixture 10 including beam lead PIN diode 24 is used to determine reflection coefficients by employing TRL calibration software, a CPW calibration set and a conventional automatic network analyzer. These reflection coefficients are, in turn, used in a conventional least-squares de-embedding algorithm (disclosed, e.g., in the Bauer and Penfield reference) to determine the electrical characteristics, e.g., S-parameters, of the MMIC package and interconnects. The characterization procedure has been verified (using diode #3 of Table 1) by employing the probe head 12 as the transition to be measured. In this testing, the IF averaging factor was set to 1000 and the incident power to -30 dBm. First, the reflection coefficient of diode 24 was measured when forward biased reverse biased and biassed in three different intermediate resistive states with respect to an on-wafer coplanar waveguide TRL (Thru-Reflect-Line) calibration and using the measurement reference plane indicated at MRP1 in FIG. 1. Next the reflection coefficients of the combination of the probe head 12 and MMIC test fixture 10 were measured, for the same five bias states, with respect to the probe head coaxial connection 21 and using the measurement reference plane indicated at MRP2. Subsequent to these measurements, the de-bedding algorithms referred to above (viz., those disclosed in the Bauer and Penfield reference) were applied to determine the S-parameters of the probe heads from the two sets of measurements. As mentioned above, the algorithm in question uses a least-squares fit to the redundant measurements. To provide verification, the experiment was repeated using a two-tier TRL calibration wherein the same procedure was used except that a TRL standard set was substituted for the MMIC test fixture 10 and a TRL algorithm (see R. Marks and K. Phillips, "Wafer-level ANA Calibrations at NIST," 34th ARFTG Conference Digest, 1989) was used to de-embed the S-parameters of the probe head. Although the present invention has been described to specific exemplary embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that variations and modifications can be effected in these exemplary embodiments without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention.

Its the reason I posted is because I dont think this guy, is the actual guy who made the Nobody thread in the third person.
Because one thing is someone posting on the internet, all high and mighty, like the guy who posted about the nobody, or paraphrasing the nobody did.
Another thing is this guy Im talking about in real life.
The Nobody's paraphrases had a direct religious content and method of delivery. Both levels seemed coherent.
Now this guy Im talking about intentionally hids this from everyone he interacts with in real life. Its like a secret.
But when he does communicate, it mostly has this double meaning, but much more subtle than someone who comes around using the words "God" and "way of the angels".
So the guy who wrote about the Nobody, if its the same guy Im talking about (who knows, the guy might lock himself in his room and go to the internet forums and kick the bucket on TPTB hubs of communication).
But something tells me the guy who posted on TPTB and later got accused of speaking on third person is not the Nobody himself.
Because there is this distinct behavior. The real guy keeps to himself and doesnt look like the type would go to the internet...
But then again, the guy who said was a bird on a branch, described this guy, or someone very similar to this guy (nothing was antagonic), except the actual act of venting on the internet. What impressed me about the guy who posted about the Nobody was his depth of knowledge of the "meta-game" through the "abrahamic cosmology" and the figurative speech, parables.
You see, the details that can actually be used to identify are not conclusive, it remains being "just a theory".
Im curious about if its the same person.

Americans use smartphones more than computers, and other news for Feb. 12, 2014
Steve Jobs' famous prediction that we are moving into a Post-PC era has come to pass according to a report from Nielsen [via Engadget]. In its most recent Digital Consumer Report, the research group found that a whopping 65 percent of Americans owned a smartphone in 2013 and that smartphones are now more common than games consoles and digital cable TV, at 46 percent and 54 percent adoption, respectively.
Furthermore, Americans now spend an average of 34 hours per month using mobile apps and mobile web browsers, but only 27 hours a month getting online with their PCs. Other interesting stats from the report reveal that 29 percent of Americans own a tablet -- up from just 5 percent two years ago -- and the average American owns four tech devices.

According to ancient tradition, at New Year and on The Queen's birthday, British citizens are rewarded for their service to public life. While the medals are physically received from the monarch, who gets an honour is in fact decided by the Cabinet Office after a process of recommendation by the community. The New Year's Honours list included a number of figures from the worlds of arts, culture and heritage. However, for the second year in a row, no architects were honoured—although more women than men were recognised for the first time.
David Wheeler, MVO, the senior furniture conservator at the Royal Collection Trust, was made a Lieutenant of the Victorian Order. The sculptor Antony Gormley, OBE, was made a Knight Bachelor for services to the arts.Martin Davidson, CMG, the chief executive officer of the British Council, was made a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (KCMG), for services to British cultural, scientific and educational interests worldwide.David Finlay, OBE, the chair of the American Friends of the British Museum, was made a Companion of the Order of Saint Michael and Saint George (CMG) for services to cultural and educational philanthropy.Those who were made Knight and Dame Commanders of the British Empire (KBE/DBE) include: Seona Reid, CBE, formerly the director of the Glasgow School of Art and the Scottish Arts Council, who "has made a huge contribution to the international success of Glasgow's creative industries".Those who were made Commanders of the British Empire (CBE) include: Janet Barnes, the chief executive of York Museums Trust, Viscountess Victoria Bridgeman, the founder of the Bridgeman Arts Library and the Artists' Collecting Society; Richard Dorment, the chief art critic at the Daily Telegraph; and Rear Admiral Richard John Lippiett, CB, MBE, the chief executive of the Mary Rose Trust, which oversees the conversation and display of the Tudor warship. Those who were made Officers of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) include: the archaeologist Lindsay Allason-Jones, an expert on Hadrian's Wall and Roman Britain; the furniture designer Zeev Aram; the sound artist Susan Philipsz; Phoebe Philo, the creative director of the accessory line Céline; Erica Bolton and Jane Quinn, the founding partners of the arts PR firm Bolton and Quinn; and Christina Anne Smith, who has helped conserve the Covent Garden area. Those who were made Members of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) include: the art collectors Eric and Jean Cass; the Edinburgh-based artist Derek Clarke; interior designer Ilse Crawford; the textile designer Natalie Gibson; Albert Mark Jones, the head of conservation at the Mary Rose Trust; the Cumbrian basket maker Owen Jones; the miniature artist Elizabeth Rosemary Meek; Jane Evelyn Pritchard, the curator of dance, theatre and performance collections at the Victoria and Albert Museum; and the Scottish archaeologist Ian Gordon Scott.The overseas honours list includes: an OBE to Robert Au Nama of the Solomon Islands for services to the arts; an MBE to Verine Lindora Woolcock the owner of the Woolcock Art and Craft Gallery, for services to the community, particularly to vulnerable persons, in Montserrat; and a British Empire Medal to Vincent Clerveaux, a carpenter and voluntary worker, for services to conservation and to the community in South Caicos, Turks and Caicos Islands.

SportSingapore Open shook-up by storms With Rory McIlroy chasing Europe's top prize, storm delays at Singapore Open could prove costly for world number one. 09 Nov 2012 14:39 GMT | Sport, Golf, Denmark, India, Philippines The storm clouds gather over the Singapore Open during the second round [GALLO/GETTY]Tropical thunderstorms threw the $6 million Barclays Singapore Open into chaos on Friday and threatened Rory McIlroy's bid to seal the European money title this weekend.After a rain-hit first day, play was suspended twice before finally being abandoned for the day as forked lightning streaked the skies and heavy downpours hit par-71 Sentosa Golf Club.Thailand's Chapchai Nirat and Simon Dyson held the joint lead midway through their second rounds, with half the field yet to take the course and more rain forecast for the weekend.Organisers said more delays could force them to slash the event from 72 to 54 holes or to complete the fourth round on Monday. Last year, it was cut to 54 holes and still only finished on the Monday morning."At present, our aim is still to complete 72 holes, weather permitting," said tournament director Jose Maria Zamora."However, if we do suffer more delays we would then decide, in consultation with the sponsor and promoter, whether to reduce the tournament to 54 holes or complete the fourth round on Monday," he said. Reducing the tournament could be inconvenient for world number one McIlroy, who was tied for 29th after 12 holes of his second round and needing a high finish to confirm himself as Europe's top prize money-winner this year. The 23-year-old, bidding to become only the second man to seal the money titles on both sides of the Atlantic in the same year, completed his first round five shots off the pace and went straight back out for round two. Spiritual healing Watched by tennis star girlfriend Caroline Wozniacki but suffering from a cold, McIlroy made a wretched start to his second round with bogey and double bogey in his first four holes.But some razor-sharp iron shots got him back to one-under-par for the tournament before he was hauled off the course for the second time, in a golf buggy with Wozniacki sitting cosily on his lap.Chapchai was a first-round leader at the 2005 Singapore Open, and in 2009 he set a world 72-hole scoring record with a staggering total of 32-under-par 256 to win India's SAIL Open. "My parents sent me to the monastery and I became a monk for a while. My temper is better now but I still try to go back to the monastery once in a while" Thailand's Chapchai Nirat However, the victories have since dried up and after only one top-10 finish this year, he said he had taken his father's advice to lose some weight and had been visiting a Buddhist monastery to improve his temperament."I've been going there a lot to calm myself. I used to be very hot-tempered and I get frustrated easily especially at such a young age," said Chapchai, 29."My parents sent me to the monastery and I became a monk for a while. My temper is better now but I still try to go back to the monastery once in a while."Ryder Cup star Francesco Molinari, his fellow Italian Matteo Manassero and Denmark's Thomas Bjorn were a shot back from Chapchai and Dyson at five-under-par during their second rounds.Last year's runner-up, Juvic Pagunsan of the Philippines, hit the shot of the day with a 161-yard hole-in-one on the par-three second - the second ace of the tournament, after Edoardo Molinari's on day one.Source: AFP

Mick Arnett North Liberty, Iowa "Beer will change the world. I don't know how, but it will."
I used the recipe as a model. I switched the two row to Maris Otter, added a half ounce of Fuggles as a first wort hop addition, pre boil, and I switched the five minute hop addition to a flame out addition. It turned out to be the best beer I have ever brewed. The point of my post is to compliment the OP on his grain bill and choice of hops. A recipe that looks good as is and has the room to play a bit. Well balanced choices. Das Boot !!!
First off Congratulations on the birth of your daughter ! thank you for the recipe . I will be trying them . Hopefully my second AG will be a more pleasant experience than the first .
I never thought about using Fuggles in this recipe so I am curious to hear about how they might complement the Willamette hops.
@MarcusKillion I used a half ounce of Fuggles as a First wort, pre boil addition. I used the Cascade and Centenial during the boil. I changed the Cascade 5 minute addition to a flame out addition. No Williamette in mine though, but I am intrigued at the thought of some Williamette in this too! Das Boot !!!
I am referring to the Amber not the IPA, just info. Sorry for the confusion Das Boot
The problem with the world today is that everyone is a few drinks behind

Buttariga (Bottarga) and other Sardinian ingredients in Bay Area?

Does anyone know a good place in the Bay Area to find Sardian speciality foods? I'm particularly looking for Buttariga (Bottarga).

As a quick aside, the process of drying and curing mullet roe is not exclusive to Sardinia. There's a regional tradition of doing so along the coasts of northern Florida and also North Carolina, where mullet are also in abaundance. See the link below:
Not sure if any regional purveyors can ship out here, but looking for distributors in the Southeast U.S. is another potential source of the product.

U.S. Nonfarm Payrolls Rise 120,000 (Update2)
RDQ Economics noted that March's number must still go through two revisions and that other measures of employment have suggested the month's job growth was much stronger.
On Wednesday, Automatic Data Processing reported that private-sector jobs increased by 209,000 in March.
The March number will generate enough uncertainty that the Federal Reserve policymakers will leave open their quantitative easing options at their April 25 meeting, wrote John Ryding and Conrad DeQuadros at RDQ Economics.
But, they added, "this report, even taken at face value, is not a sign of weakness given the volatility in the data."

Alfred Tennyson poem chosen as Olympic Winning Words
A line from an Alfred Tennyson poem has been chosen to inspire athletes taking part in the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
"To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield", from Ulysses, will be engraved as a permanent installation in the centre of the Olympic Village.
The public was invited to suggest inspiring poetry representing the values of the Olympic Games last year.
Four other poems will also feature around the complex.
The selections were chosen by a panel which included Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy, author Sebastian Faulks, poet Daljit Nagra and broadcasters Clare Balding and John Inverdale.
Reasons for nominating the Tennyson line emphasised its universal appeal including comments such as "it sums up the courage needed to live life to the full".
Nagra liked it because it is "a clarion call to the best parts of our searching inquiring selves that is just as suited to a gold medal winner as it is to the ordinary worker in their daily round".
London 2012 - Begin your journey here
- Sport, news and more 2012 information
Lines from Robert Browning, Langston Hughes, Denise Levertov and Sean O'Brien poems were also selected from the public nominations.
The Tennyson installation will be seen daily by the athletes and officials living and working in the Olympic Village during the 2012 Games.
After the Games, the wall will remain after the Village is converted into new housing.

Which will be around in two years, Palm, inc or Gov Perdue? is this the best we can do for bringing new technology to the classroom? Give me a break! Maybe the governor could donate her Gateway Computer with floppy drive and Windows 95 to a school. I am sure they would just swoon for that "new" technology. »
