Havelock coach Jim Bob Bryant didn't like what he saw. He shouted at his running back. "You've got to cut that up inside!"
Bryant wasn't about to let a 63-0 lead get in the way of an opportunity for a coaching moment with a young player.
Julian Cuthbertson returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown, and Havelock never looked back, beating the outmanned Jones Senior Trojans 63-0 Friday at Havelock High.
"We wanted to get some young kids some looks against varsity competition," Bryant said. "Our future's bright. We had a bunch of young guys out there playing the whole second half, and the majority of them are freshmen and sophomores. We brought up a bunch of guys from the junior varsity, and I thought they came in and did a good job."
Two of those players, Tony Sharp and Cory Cooper, had touchdown runs in the second half, which included a continuous running clock as the defending 3A state champions hosted the 1A Trojans in the Havelock home opener.
Cuthbertson's 58-yard return in the opening kick set the stage for a Rams team that scored on seven of eight first-half possessions, with halftime interrupting the final drive. By then, Havelock led 49-0.
"Jones Senior's a good football team, but they're 1A and they just don't have any depth," Bryant said. "When you've got 22 players … you have to play everybody both ways, but those kids never quit fighting the whole night. Coach (Greg) Hampton and Coach (John) Davis are two of my really good friends, and they do what they can. They don't have a whole lot of players, but they will keep fighting and they should be commended for that."
Havelock quarterback Travis Sabdo threw for two touchdowns --- 59 yards to Matthew Boykin and 41 yards to Kyran Bowman --- sandwiched around a Boykin 6-yard rushing touchdown to lead 28-0 in the first quarter. Sabdo was 3-of-4 passing for 105 yards and for the third straight game as a starter, did not have an interception.
Jones Senior got a 32-yard pass play from Glen White to Nihkee Jones, and converted on a fourth-and-1 play to move into Havelock territory midway through the first quarter, but a penalty pushed the Trojans (0-3) back and they weren't able to recover.
"We showed some flashes of brilliance, but then the wheels would come off," Davis said. "That's going to happen when you're playing a bunch of freshmen and sophomores. For a 1A school, we probably play the toughest schedule in the state. We've got our work cut out for us, but this is great experience and we hope it pays off in October."
Taylor Woods had a 30-yard touchdown run for the Rams in the second, and Derrell Scott added scoring runs of 18 and five yards as the Rams led 49-0. Scott totaled 176 yards on just 10 carries.
"It was great, but I have to give the credit to my offensive line," said Scott, who had a pair of 58-yard runs that did not go for touchdowns. "If they didn't block for me, I wouldn't be able to do anything. They really opened up some holes for me."
Scott said he was pleased with how the Rams played but said they are always looking to get better.
"There's always ways you can improve," he said. "Jones Senior came out here and played a great game. I give credit to them. But, there are always things for us to improve on. Tonight, there are some things we learned, some things we know we need to work on. Every game, no matter what the score is, there are always things we can learn."
As for the defense, Havelock didn't allow a point and got an interception from Jordan Cuthbertson and a fumble recovery from Shondel Granison. The Rams have given up just two offensive touchdowns in three games.
"Our defense, we wanted to get a goose egg on the board," Bryant said. "And our defense played great."
The Rams are next scheduled to play at Kinston next Friday.

DAY 1: On Dec. 28, three Orange County mountaineers reached Camp 2 high on Cerro Aconcagua in Argentina. While they waited their turn to summit, they watched above them as another team tried to ascend a 3,300-foot wall of ice. Over the next 30 hours, tragedy would bring the two teams together.
Tomorrow would be Alex Barbers turn to stand on top of the Western Hemisphere.
For 14 days, he and two friends had stalked the 22,841-foot summit of Argentinas Cerro Aconcagua.
They were supposed to be down by now. But Aconcagua – the tallest mountain outside the Himalayas – had not been kind. She greeted them with four days of snow. Rejected their first summit bid with 135 mph winds. Inflicted high-altitude migraines on David van der Roest, 26, of Santa Ana, and sprained the ankle of Carter Cox, 26, of Irvine. At this altitude, either ailment could prove lethal.
Barber, 24, of Orange, and a guide on Washingtons Mount Rainier, knew the dangers of big mountains.
But Aconcagua was bigger than any hed climbed.
And already, 2,000 feet above him, tragedy was unfolding.
Dec. 28 was summit day for fellow climbers Eric Nourse, 41, of Greeley, Colo.; his twin brother Greg Nourse, of Portland, Ore.; and their best friend, Dave Reinhart, 42, of Lake Oswego, Ore.
Reinhart had been slow since leaving Camp 2 at 5 a.m., but no one was worried. Not yet.
On steep ice, you cant ever take a break, says Greg Nourse. Everyone is slow.
Youre front-pointing – meaning the spikes of your crampons are sticking into the ice. Youre roped in, using ice screws and ice axes. Its exhausting. There is no opportunity to sit and rest.
Over 23 years, the three adventurers had summited the likes of Washingtons Mount Rainier, Alaskas Denali and the Swiss Alps.
You have to push yourself beyond the limits of comfort, Greg Nourse says. Most people have an excuse for not reaching the summit. 'It was too windy, too cold, blah-blah-blah. But we stopped using excuses.
At 21,000 feet, however, Reinhart said something that struck fear in the hearts of his teammates: I think I got what Eric had.
Reinhart didnt say HAPE – high altitude pulmonary edema, a potentially lethal buildup of fluid in the lungs. He didnt have to. Everyone knew.
In 2000, team leader Eric Nourse survived HAPE by quickly descending Bolivias 21,122-foot Illimani. The trouble was they could not descend the route they were on, known as the Polish Direct. It was too steep. Too treacherous. Their only option was to summit and descend an easier route.

This powerpoint presentation was excellent! I found the lesson's interactive style to be extremely engaging. Students were given so much control over what they were learning at each step, providing them a level of autonomy. While there was direct instruction it did not feel like a lecture style presentation. I also enjoyed all the visual representations, it made the presentation feel alive. My favorite part of this presentation was the manner in which the quizzes were presented. During the lesson students were given the opportunity to practice their knowledge before the final test at the end, giving extra opportunity to check their understanding. But the author also provided specific feedback for the student based upon their answers to these questions. When a student answers the question incorrectly they are given specific information reminding them of the lesson and why the answer is wrong. I feel that students can gain a lot from this lesson without much more teacher provided support, which gives students accountability for their learning in a way that blends guidance and independence beautifully.

I really enjoyed your Stair. You kept the content uncomplicated and to the point. Nice clean graphics with bright colors. I only have one question, and I'm not a health teacher so I may be off on this, but didn't the government redesign the food pyramid? It took me a little under 10 minutes to complete the powerpoint, without doing the meal design activities. You might consider placing links on the meal design pages to a template that stuents could work off of, and links back to each catagory of nutrient. Other than that really nice job.

I loved the Lace Country design as soon as I saw it and knew I'd be using that one. The Save the Dates came out fantastic!! I even received them ahead of schedule! I cannot wait to order my Lace Country invitations!!
Fast delivery, very professional presentation!
Fantastic service! Website is easy to use, and very personalized. Very professional presentation! Love our save the dates!
Great save the date magnets
Our save the date magnets came out amazing! Excellent quality and value. The only thing we couldn't personalize was the "Save the Date" font, but everything else was exactly what we wanted it to be. We loved the custom lookbook that came with our shipment, too! I would definitely order from MagnetStreet again.
Exactly what I was looking for!
I am very satisfied with my save the date magnets! They are the perfect size and match our theme perfectly! I searched a lot of websites before I found these, as I just couldn't find anything that fit my style for my budget. I was also extremely impressed with how quickly they responded to my custom changes to the design (1 business day). They arrived in a beautiful box that I will definitely be using even after my wedding. The magnets themselves were even prettier than I thought they were going to be!
Quality + affordable price +country style = just want i wanted!
I really can't express how much I appreciate quality merchandise at an affordable price. Not only was i impressed with the packaging, but everything was shipped and sent to me in a very timely fashion. The colors i picked were very true to what their web page showed. Another plus was that this was the only company that had my country burlap color along with lace as an option as the background. (This is an ongoing theme for my wedding.) All in all, my save the date's turned out better than i expected. The few i have sent out so far my guest have been nothing, but impressed. I highly recommend using Magnet Street for magnet save the dates. Since i had such a wonderful experience, i also plan on purchasing my wedding invitations through them.

Paul Goodwin has always loved to dance.
Goodwin, who twirls signs and dances to advertise Little Caesar's on South Lafayette Street, said he started dancing for a job when in Miami, Fla.
"I was just out looking for a job one day and saw a guy dancing at Liberty Tax. I thought, 'Wow, I would love to just get paid to do that all day,'" he said.
Goodwin has been dancing for about two years and has worked at Little Caesar's since October.
He journeyed to Cleveland County from Miami because his daughter lives here. He said he biked 900 miles to Grover, a spiritual journey detailed further in a documentary on his website.
When he came to Little Caesar's to find work, they asked to see his moves.
And once they did, "They hired me in 30 seconds," he said.
The power of dance
When Goodwin dances with the sign, he listens to a wide variety of music.
"It's either gospel or Spanish merengue, or Michael Jackson," he said. A fan of Michael Jackson, Goodwin said his some of his moves are inspired by the famous artist. But mostly, "I just process the music and it comes out."
Goodwin said he went through many hardships a few years ago, but he rediscovered dancing through a mall in Miami. The dancing helped lift his spirits.
"Every Wednesday and Saturday, they play Spanish music," he said.
As a Puerto Rican, Goodwin loved the Spanish music, so he joined the crowd and started dancing.
'God put this in my heart'
As many have heard, Goodwin is also a preacher and spiritual counselor. Some have called him an apostle.
"Everywhere I go, I just let the Lord shine through me," he said.
Dancing on South Lafayette lets him show others that life isn't so bad.
"God put this in my heart," he said. He also said he simply wants to make people smile.
Making friends in Shelby
Goodwin has made a lot of people smile since coming to the county.
As The Star interviewed him on the roadside, many drivers blew their car horns, waved or smiled at the dancing pizza man. He's also made friends here in Shelby.
A recent post about Goodwin on The Star's Facebook page drew more than 50 likes and half as many comments.
One person recently bought Goodwin a hat.
"People come up and give me money, they bring me things to drink," he said.
Others come to hear encouragement. Goodwin said he tries to give inspiration to those who visit him.
"Even though things are hard these days, God won't let you fail," he said.
Interesting facts about Paul Goodwin:
- He spends more than five hours per day studying the Bible.
- He loves to sew.
- He is a minister.
- He was in the Navy.
- He loves everyone.

Smith hopes to follow in Kearse's footsteps with Seahawks
Elaine Thompson / Associated Press
Jermaine Kearse, who played at Washington, was an undrafted free agent who has become a part of the Seahawks wide receiver group.
Associated Press
Undrafted free agent rookie wide receiver Kevin Smith, a long shot to make the team, is in the same position as fellow former husky Jermaine Kearse was in 2012 with the Seahawks.
But Kearse's eyes don't light up when he's describing a play that would be a career highlight for just about anyone. And he doesn't get a big smile when discussing his emergence as a regular in the receiver rotation.
No, what really gets Kearse talking is the mention of another fellow University of Washington receiver, Kevin Smith.
"Kevin Smith, that's my guy," Kearse says of Smith, an undrafted rookie who signed with Seattle last month. "He's been doing extremely well, making some nice catches."
Indeed, Smith has had some good moments in his first NFL training camp, including a very impressive touchdown catch in traffic on the opening day of camp, and Kearse gets excited for Smith because he sees a lot of himself in the rookie, who by all accounts is a long shot, at best, to end up on the Seattle Seahawks' roster this season. Smith went undrafted in May, was signed by Arizona after the draft, later released, then was signed and released by Jacksonville before landing in Seattle.
Then again, long shots seem to fit right in when it comes to Seahawks wide receivers. Kearse, undrafted out of Washington in 2012, signed with Seattle, spent the first half of his rookie season on the practice squad before joining the active roster for the final seven games of the season.
Doug Baldwin went undrafted in 2011, then went on to lead the team in catches and receiving yards as a rookie. He was also Seattle's most consistent receiver in 2013, and will almost certainly be a starter this season. Ricardo Lockette, also undrafted, bounced around between Seattle, San Francisco and Chicago, also spending a lot of time on practice squads before contributing to Seattle's Super Bowl run as a receiver and special teams player.
So yeah, Smith seems to be up against a numbers crunch at a position that includes the aforementioned receivers, not to mention Percy Harvin and the two receivers Seattle drafted this spring, Paul Richardson and Kevin Norwood. However, the Seahawks' history under Pete Carroll should serve as a reminder that you can never count out a long shot this time of year, especially not a long shot receiver.
"Whether you're drafted in the first round or not drafted, it does not matter here," Seahwks receivers coach Kippy Brown said. "It really does not. If you're willing to do the things we ask you to do, and you have enough ability to help us win, then we'll play you. We don't care. That's what's happened with Doug and Jermaine and Lockette, and Phillip Bates is coming on and doing the same thing. It's a good thing."
With examples like Baldwin and Kearse to look up to, Smith spends every day around living and breathing proof that he will get a real chance to show what he can do, regardless of his draft status.
"Those kind of guys got an opportunity and they took full advantage of it, so I'm trying to follow right behind them and take advantage of every opportunity I get here," Smith said. "Every rep I get, and when I'm not out there, the mental reps so I can be on top of my game. Coming in late I'm a couple of months behind, but I've got to be on top of it. I'm just trying to take full advantage of it."
Like Kearse before him, Smith knows his best shot at making the team, or ever the practice squad, is to show he can contribute on special teams. If you're fighting to be a team's fifth or sixth receiver — the realistic best-case scenario for a player like Smith — making a big impact on special teams is the best way to stand out. That's why Smith is getting work in as a gunner on punt coverage and on both kickoff coverage and as a blocker on the kick return team.
"(Kearse) told me the little things you've got to do to try to make your way up there," Smith said. "He's given me some tips."
For Kearse, helping and undrafted rookie like Smith is just the next step in the journey from being roster hopeful himself to now being a near lock to not just make the team, but be one of the team's top pass catchers.
"I talk to him all the time, I'm on him all the time," Kearse said. "I'm trying to do everything I can to help him out. If a younger guy — it's funny I say 'younger guy' — if a younger guy asks me a question, I'm going to try to help him out the best I can. With Kevin, that's my guy, so I'm trying to help him."
As for Kearse, he's looking forward to building off of a 2013 season in which he caught 22 passes for 346 yards and four touchdowns, including the game-winning 43-yard score in Seattle's season opener at Carolina. Kearse also had a 35-yard touchdown catch in the NFC Championship game to put Seattle ahead in the fourth quarter, then had that now famous 23-yard score against the Broncos in the Super Bowl.
"It was huge," Kearse said of his breakout season. "It just gives me a sense of what I can do. I don't ever want to stay complacent. I'm always trying to get better, I'm always trying to perfect my craft. It just gave me a sense of the type of things I can do and made me want to do more."

Vasquez is not a victim. The team is a victim because of him. While he does rack up assists, he turns the ball over, horrendous defender, and doesn't shoot well from the floor. Add that up, he's terrible.
Rivers has been terrible overall this season. No other way to slice it. He's shown some improvements, but not much overall to improve his overall terrible performance.
Uh-oh, fire-up the jet.
Offense looks better when it doesn't touch Vasquez's hand much.
Rivers gotta keep attacking. And vazquez has gotta be smart.
Why Vasquez doesn't do that more boggles my mind.
Wow. Look at that. Find Davis = good things happen.

What you need to know about fish oil
By Koren, Pure Matters
In another example of the media highlighting just a small piece of a story in an attempt to get more readers, USA TODAY ran an article today claiming fish oil supplements don't have a significant effect on heart attacks, strokes or death.
The truth is, that isn't the entire story -- there is in fact, a lot more to the research noted in the article. Doctors and medical professionals agree: a healthy diet includes one rich in omega-3 fatty acids and oils. And as Duffy MacKay, vice president for scientific and regulatory affairs at the Council for Responsible Nutrition points out, the studies didn't test whether the participant's diet was already high in fish oil or if they were already sick.
Mackay also noted that Americans know they should be eating a diet high in fatty fish, but "the reality is that people are simply not doing this. Omega-3 supplements serve as an affordable, convenient and safe way to obtain omega-3 fatty acids and the array of health benefits they offer."
There have been countless research studies that show many benefits to taking a daily fish oil supplement. In a majority of the studies, fish oil supplementation was shown to lower triglyceride levels among other health advantages. For a full review of recent fish oil supplementation studies, check out our research section here.

Locality pay, official time reports likely to rekindle federal pay debate
Thursday - 11/15/2012, 5:27am EST
Get ready for another round of every federal employee's favorite game, "Are your pay and benefits too high?"
Two new reports expected in the coming month are expected to rekindle the always heated pay debate. The Federal Salary Council in the coming weeks will make new recommendations to change which counties get locality pay increases.
At the same time, the Office of Personnel Management is finalizing its 2011 report on how much time employees spend on union activities.
Angela Bailey, the Office of Personnel Management's chief human capital officer, said the council will submit its recommendations to the President's Pay Agent as early as this week.
"There's a recommendation for the creation of dozens of new locality pay areas" Bailey said Tuesday at the annual open meeting of the Chief Human Capital Officer's Council in Washington. "There's a change in the criteria for adding counties to existing locality pay areas, and there's an adoption of the occupational employment statistics program method developed by Bureau of Labor Statistics for measuring non-federal pay levels."
Locality pay unchanged in recent years
The council's recommendations are by no means guaranteed to be accepted by President Barack Obama.
Angela Bailey, chief human capital officer, OPM
Last year the pay agent rejected the council's recommendations to create new locality pay areas for six areas: Albany, N.Y; Albuquerque; Bakersfield, Calif.; Charlotte, N.C.; Harrisburg, Pa.; and Portland, Maine.
In 2011, the President froze locality pay at 2010 levels.
The second report, called the official time survey, measures how many hours employees spend on union related activities during working hours. Under law, they are allowed to spend a certain amount of time on union activities, but it must be tracked and measured.
Bailey said the annual report to Congress shows increases in the use of official time across the board.
"Total official time across the government has gone up 10.85 [percent] increase from 2010 to 2011 in the actual number of hours," she said. "And a little over 13 percent increase in the cost of official time hours."
The official time survey likely will gain a lot of interest on Capitol Hill. Last year's hearing before the House Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee on the federal workforce on the report was contentious.
OPM released the results of its 2009 survey just last year and found non-postal service civilian agency employees spent almost 3 million hours performing union work on government time. This equates to an average of 2.58 hours per employee a year. OPM estimates that official time cost the government more than $129 million in salary and benefits.
Pay freeze to continue?
On top of both of these reports, federal pay will remain in the spotlight during the budget negotiations and leading up to the end of the continuing resolution in March. Obama froze employee pay during the CR, which runs through March 27.
"Right now, we are coordinating with OMB on the presidential memorandum directing agencies to continue the freeze on pay adjustments in the general increase granted by administrative action to the first day of the pay period beginning March 27, 2013," Bailey said. "That would make it consistent with the extension of the pay freeze on the statutory pay adjustments. We also are preparing guidance to go out with regard to that on the pay freeze as well."
It's unclear what OPM and OMB are preparing in the memo and guidance. A request to OMB and OPM for further explanation on the memo and guidance was not returned.
Pam Malam, deputy chief human capital officer, Department of the Interior
Beyond the reports and pay issues, the CHCO Council addressed several other hot button workforce issues, including diversity, veterans hiring, the need to certify federal HR employees and a USAJobs.gov update.
Pam Malam, the deputy CHCO at the Interior Department, said USAJobs.gov is making progress.
Malam said the council will hold a meeting with agency officials to create a new strategy for recruiting workers through USAJobs.gov.
x In the short term, OPM plans to prioritize new functional requirements and ensure technical changes will continue to meet mission needs.
OPM Director John Berry said potential applicants posted more than 17,000 resumes on the site last year. And he said the site's customer satisfaction rate is higher now than at any other time over the last five years.
New home for HRU
OPM also moved HR University to the employee services division and out of the CHCO Council's purview.
Kathryn Medina, the CHCO Council's executive director, said HR University has more than 16,000 users and saved the government more than $31 million.
Bailey said OPM hired a program manager to further develop HR University.
"Some of the more exciting things we are doing is working with these colleges and universities to get credited HR degrees up on HR University," she said. "One of the things, I really have a dream, is to create a federal HR degree that would be accredited that we could run through HR University so that it's one of the greatest ways we could go about closing the skills gap."
Kathryn Medina, executive director, CHCO Council
Federal employees also are using HR University to relearn the basics of HR.
"Everyone talks about being a consultant and having a seat at the table. You can't have a seat at the table or be a consultant if you don't know the basics of HR," Bailey said. "Some of the things we want to concentrate on is staffing, classifications and labor and employees relations. It's our nuts and bolts of how we get our jobs done."
The program also is working with American University and George Mason University on programs. OPM is running a pilot with its own employees and with George Mason to create a master's degree in federal HR.
200 PMFs ready to be hired
The council also will review plans in December for a governmentwide HR certification program. Treasury has one in operation and that's a model for the rest of government.
OPM also is developing both an exit survey for Senior Executive Service members who are retiring or leaving government and is considering a survey on why SESers stay in government.
"The purpose of this survey is we want to obtain information that is relevant to the executives in regards to retention, workforce planning and recruitment," Bailey said. "We will use our own staff here to get this survey up on a weblink so that you can use it and doesn't become an onerous process for you."
OPM is testing the SES-stay interview about why they are staying in government and what would make them leave.
Bailey said OPM's experience with the Stay interview was helpful in understanding the motivations of SESers. OPM found SESers stay because they feel good about their jobs and the impact they are having. They can also leave a legacy. The agency found if SESers would leave if they felt their job wasn't a benefit or not valued.
Bailey said many SESers say if they left, they would go somewhere to continue to make a difference, but not necessarily to make big money.
OPM also is extending the deadline for applications to the 2013 Presidential Management Fellows Program by another week. Berry said it's now due the Monday after Thanksgiving.
In the 2012 class, Berry said about 200 fellows are still looking for jobs, and agencies could hire them immediately. Of the 566 fellows available for placement, the Department of Health and Human Services brought on 86, the most of any agency. The State Department brought on 42 fellows and the Homeland Security Department hired 32.

The eight short-listed design teams have been announced for a competition to redevelop the Windermere Steamboat Museum on the shores of Windermere.
The Lakeland Arts Trust recently secured initial support for a £7.4m Heritage Lottery Fund bid, including £494,000 development funding, to take the project forward. The project aims to create an exciting and active museum which will use the lake and the lakeside setting to display the nationally significant collection of steam launches, motor boats, yachts and other vessels which are all associated with Windermere.
The first stage of the competition attracted 114 expressions of interest. The short-list (in order of the architect leading the multi-disciplinary design team) is as follows: Carmody Groarke; Adam Khan Architects; Niall McLaughlin Architects; Terry Pawson Architects; Reiach and Hall Architects; 6a Architects; Sutherland Hussey Architects; Witherford Watson Mann Architects.
Martin Ainscough, Chairman of the Lakeland Arts Trust, commented: "We are very encouraged by the quality of entries in the architectural competition and the judging panel had a difficult decision to select the final eight for the shortlist. We are looking forward to working with the successful practice to create a world class facility in the heart of the Lake District.."
Gordon Watson, the trust's chief executive, added: "We are looking for a fresh, well-detailed and sensitive response for the stimulating and highly significant site on Windermere and to display the museum's wonderful collection of boats."
The second stage of the competition will seek design concepts for the project. Architects will need to take into account the requirement of displaying the boats and other items in the collection in the exhibition space and wet dock, and enabling visitors to see the boats being restored in the conservation workshop, as well as designing an appropriate facility for the location to provide a world-class visitor experience.
The design proposals will be subject to public display and comment in late October 2011 and the design teams will be invited to present their schemes to the jury panel at final interviews in late November 2011.
THE Bassenthwaite Ospreys have moved home to live in marshes nearer to Bassenthwaite Lake.
After successfully nesting at their treetop summer home at Dodd Wood since 2008, the pair decided it was time for a change and have been gradually building a new nest since returning from their wintering grounds in West Africa.
Fortunately, the new site is visible from the Dodd Wood viewpoint so visitors can still enjoy watching the birds of prey this season.
Ospreys are normally faithful to successful nest sites, so the move was a bit of a shock for staff at the Lake District Osprey Project (LDOP). This is only the second time staff have seen the ospreys change nest in the project's 11-year history.
Nathan Fox of the RSPB's Lake District Osprey Project, said: 'It has been an interesting and exciting start to the season, with the birds deciding to move. We have been working closely with local landowners and farmers to make sure that the birds are fully protected and therefore have a good chance of raising their chicks."
A PAIR of ospreys have returned to their nesting site in the Lake District. The birds are back at Bassenthwaite Lake - 10 years after the first male osprey chose the area for a nesting site.The bird, known as No Ring, was the first to nest in the Lakes for 150 years. Experts say he has returned with the female he paired up with for the first time in 2007.
It is hoped the birds will rear an 11th generation of young after two male chicks were produced last year.
Graeme Prest of the Lake District Osprey Project said: "It is wonderful news that the ospreys have returned for another season and have already mated. With a bit of luck, the female will be laying her eggs soon."
Almost 100 people are part of a volunteer project to provide 24-hour observation on the nest. They also engage with the public about ospreys at the Dodd Wood viewpoint and Whinlatter Visitor Centre.
The public Osprey Viewpoint at Dodd Wood, near Keswick, has been opened and telescopes are being provided to see the birds.
Live images from the nest are also being beamed to a big screen at the nearby Whinlatter visitor centre. The osprey project is managed by a partnership of the Forestry Commission, Lake District National Park Authority and the RSPB.

Hira Cast Iron teapot reflects symmetrical beads on the surface depicting water drops. Matte Black outside finish with black enamel inside. Also includes a removable stainless steel infuser for ease in brewing pure leaf teas.
Size: 7" d. x 2.25" h. 22 ounce capacity.
The origin of cast iron teapots is beleived to be in China. Traditionally, they were used as kettles for boiling water. With the advent of Zen in Japan, these teapots (known as Tetsubin in Japanese) became more popular. They adopted the aesthetic elements of Zen into their designs and emerged in the last century as more of a tea service item.
The use of cast iron emerged due to its ability to distribute heat evenly and keep the brew warm for extended periods.
In making the cast iron teapots, wooden patterns are first made to develop the design. Wood allows the artisan to intricately etch, carve or shape the teapot. For production, the wooden patterns are converted into metal patterns (the use of the material varies as per the manufacturer) and subsequently to sand molds. Molten cast iron at 1600 celsius is poured into the molds in the final making of the teapots. Lastly, details and cleaning are performed.
Proper care of the cast iron teapots will ensure longevity and proper seasoning. Upon receipt, please rinse inside of teapot with warm water. We do not recommend using soap or any abrasive materials. After rinsing the pots, use a dry towel to remove any remaining moisture in pot. We do not recommend using this pot on stove top or for boiling water.

Old English Sheepdog
Physical Characteristics
Breed Group:
Herding group.
Approximately 45 kg (95 lbs).
The Old English Sheepdog stands approximately 55 cm (22 inches).
They are typically grey and white.
They have a full, thick coat with longer hair that works as an insulator in hot and cold weather.
The Old English Sheepdog is a sociable and intelligent dog that adapts well to new environments. They like to play. They're bred as working dogs and as such tend to be quite active and independent.
Country of Origin:
These dogs were originally bred to herd livestock and as pets. Throughout popular culture, they have become very popular dogs and are often featured in television and movies. They first appeared in the early 1800s although their ancestry is unclear. Many breeders believe they are descendents of collies being bred with the Russian Owtchar. As they were bred to herd and protect sheep in southern England, they developed a thick, weatherproof coat and are strong and hardy enough to guard against predators like the fox.
They're name is derived from the fact they're from England and were traditionally used for herding sheep.
They're intelligent, social, and adaptable and bond closely with their owners. They are usually gentle with children and make excellent pets. They can become somewhat frustrated when the do not get enough exercise and in such cases will likely exhibit destructive behavior. Because of their strong herding instinct, these dogs are gentle and love to play with other dogs.
Old English Sheepdogs are very intelligent and as such are relatively easy to train. They are however somewhat stubborn which can make training more challenging.
As they are herding dogs, they are quite active. They like to play, run, and go for long walks. Ideally, they should have access to large fields or yards to roam with other dogs or animals for companionship.
Careful consideration of the grooming requirements of Old English Sheepdogs should be considered before deciding to have one for a pet. They need a lot of exercise and because of the nature of their coat need to be brushed regularly. In addition, they are prone to cataracts so hair over their eyes can actually be beneficial. They will shed their heavy coat after the winter season which can be a nuisance.

Comments about Ritchey WCS Carbon Streem Road Bar:
Coming from years of alloy bars, these were a small but positive revelation. Significantly lighter and noticeably more comfortable. Could immediately tell the difference in terms of road vibration - much less. Combine that with a double wrap of cork bar tape on the tops (above the hoods) and the ride is absolutely luxurious, even on the most jarring of road surfaces.
Love the flat tops. My previous alloy bars had this and I find it greatly reduces hand fatigue and numbness.
The drop distance. somewhat neutral - not too deep not too shallow - is nice for me, but that may be a matter of preference.

Doi Luang Chiang Dao is one of the less well known birding sites in Thailand. It is gaining recognition amongst birders as there are over 300 documented species which visit this area. Stars of the show are the Mrs. Hume's Pheasant and the Giant Nuthatch, but the supporting cast is pretty impressive too.

Last week, Whitecaps FC kicked off their 2012 preseason camp and included in the squad are three young Canadians from the club's Residency program in Caleb Clarke, Ben Fisk, and Callum Irving. This is in addition to program grads Russell Teibert and Bryce Alderson.
It was also confirmed prior to the start of training camp that Philippe Davies has left the club. Now, don't for a second think that everyone at the club doesn't wish the best for Phil – he's a great person and a bright young soccer player who has a strong future to look forward to in the game of soccer – but I know from experience that it's about being in the right situation at the right time.
- Updates on everything about the 'Caps.
- Regular columns on whitecapsfc.com featuring opinions on hot topics in soccer.
- Fun videos (with my partner in crime, videographer extraordinaire Zac Ratcliffe), including behind-the-scenes footage.
- And of course – most importantly – interaction and feedback from fans. Because in the end, nothing is more important than you the fans.
- Soccer has been part of my life since I can remember, and I am obviously biased when I say that this is the best sport in the world. It's awfully hard to argue that point though when you see the devotion and passionate opinions of the fans.

Twenty years ago Chelsea Green published the first trade edition of The Man Who Planted Trees, a timeless eco-fable about what one person can do to restore the earth. The hero of the story, Elzéard Bouffier, spent his life planting one hundred acorns a day in a desolate, barren section of Provence in the south of France. The result was a total transformation of the landscape-from one devoid of life, with miserable, contentious inhabitants, to one filled with the scent of flowers, the songs of birds, and fresh, flowing water.
Since our first publication, the book has sold over a quarter of a million copies and inspired countless numbers of people around the world to take action and plant trees. On National Arbor Day, April 29, 2005, Chelsea Green released a special twentieth anniversary edition with a new foreword by Wangari Maathai, winner of the 2004 Nobel Peace Prize and founder of the African Green Belt Movement.

King credits her spirit of adventure to her mother. "My mum used to take us on spontaneous road trips. We never knew where we were going, and I loved that," she says. As a teenager, King yearned to venture outside her hometown of Boise, in Idaho in the United States, and began booking tickets to faraway destinations such as China, Brazil, India, Russia and Mauritius. She never let anything hold her back.
Born with no hearing in both ears, King relies primarily on her ability to read lips, leaning on her hearing aid to help her understand conversations better. She's travelled to 31 countries and five continents. Along the way, her iPad has become an indispensable sidekick. "Even simple things like overhead announcements at airports are hard for me to pick up," says King. "So I've missed flights because I didn't hear about a gate change. Now I use apps on my iPad to see notifications of flight changes." King uses multiple apps — from travel guides to maps to language and translation apps — to connect with people and explore every destination to the fullest. "iPad is one of my essential travel tools," says King.
Marrakech, Morocco
But King isn't content to see the beauty of the world for herself. She knows there's always something new to discover and experience. That's why she's just as passionate about sharing her travels. She keeps her network of friends up to date through her site, Flight of the Travel Bee, and on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
King hopes that by chronicling her experiences, she can be an example for other people with hearing impairments. "I've met countless deaf people, and they all tell me how brave I am for travelling. But now that they've read my site, they realise they can do it too."
From Beijing to St. Petersburg, King has wandered down winding streets, pulling up Maps whenever she needs to find her way again. Since most people don't sign, and King can only understand English, she relies on the local language captions on Maps to show cab drivers exactly where she needs to go.
When she doesn't have a destination in mind, King uses iPad apps like AroundMe and tripwolf to discover nearby places. This way, King feels free to navigate every corner of a new city and venture off the beaten path to explore hole-in-the-wall eateries and sample the best com tam in town, or join a pickup game of jianzi in Hoan Kiem Lake. "iPad is my travelling companion and my guide," she says. "It always helps me discover interesting things I wouldn't know about otherwise."
To King, there's an incredible discovery waiting at every turn, and her iPad helps her the whole way through. She can stop for a chat at a neighbourhood café using BabelDeck and other communication apps on iPad. She'll turn to the Triposo app on iPad to create walking tours of a new city. And during the inevitable down periods and waiting times at airports, in hotels or on planes, King watches closed-captioned movies and TV shows from iTunes, keeps in touch with family and friends using FaceTime and iMessage, or jots down ideas for her next post using Notes. When she returns home, she uses WordPress to write and publish her latest travel tale.
Long before she set out on her own, King felt that behind every journey was the potential to discover something new about herself and the world. She believes that more and more with every trip. "I love travelling to different places. You never know who you'll meet, and how that might change you," she says. "iPad has allowed me to become a more adventurous and spontaneous traveller. And I'm just getting started."
Ha Long Bay, Vietnam

Love, Again tells the story of a 65-year-old woman who falls in love and struggles to maintain her sanity. Widowed for many years, with grown children, Sarah is a writer who works in the theater in London. During the production of a play, she falls in love with a seductive young actor, the beautiful and androgynous 28-year-old Bill, and then with the more mature 35-year-old director Henry. Finding herself in a state of longing and desire that she had thought was the province of younger women, Sarah is compelled to explore and examine her own personal history of love, from her earliest childhood desires to her most recent obsessions. The result is a brilliant anatomy of love from a master of human psychology who remains one of the most daring writers of fiction at work today.

Kent State Dance Majors Present First Student Choreography Production in New Performance SpacePosted Jan. 26, 2011
Kent State University's School of Theatre and Dance proudly presents junior and senior dance majors performing 3.14 ~ INFINITY: BFA Senior Dance Concert and Student Dance Festival Concert. This collaborative concert will offer audience members the opportunity to see works with seventeen different and exciting artistic visions in dance, music and choreographic explorations in the new, state-of-the-art Louis O. Erdmann and William H. Zucchero Theatre (EZ Theatre). The concert takes place on Fri., March 11 and Sat., March 12 at 8 p.m., and Sat., March 12 and Sun., March 13 at 2 p.m. in EZ Theatre in the Roe Green Center for the School of Theatre and Dance at 1325 Theatre Drive in Kent. Tickets are $16 adults, $12 seniors, and $8 students with valid ID. The box office is located in the lobby of the Roe Green Center. Hours are 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays, and one hour prior to curtain on show days. Visa, MasterCard, Discover, personal checks and cash are accepted. Contact the box office at 330-672-2497 or online at www.dance.kent.edu.
This concert marks the first student-choreography production in the EZ Theatre in the Roe Green Center for the School of Theatre and Dance. This new performing venue for the School of Theatre and Dance will showcase the choreography of dance major and minors, as well as dance education majors.
Guest choreographer Richard Brandon Hall, along with student lighting designers from the Theatre Division, will help in presenting this collaborative concert. Graduating majors in dance performance and choreography Amanda Black, Tamara Landry, and Katie Naso present works which explore individual and diverse meanings with a focus on modern dance. Black's work, inspired by the quote, "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain," is about making personal choices that others try to undermine. Landry's piece explores seven different phases of her life as a dance artist. This piece focuses on her exploration of various techniques, her struggles, and, ultimately, the celebration of dance. Finally, Naso's work concentrates on the extremely difficult situation a couple faces when they come to the realization that their life's paths have become divergent.
The graduating seniors will also perform a new dance choreographed and directed by Dance Division guest choreographer Richard Brandon Hall, providing them with an opportunity to perform together for a final time. In this new work, entitled The Encounter with Angels, Hall explores his relationship with his deceased great-grandmother and the impact she had on his life. Incorporating personal experiences from the dancers, Hall will pay homage to those who have come before and now watch over life's continuing journey.
Along with the three BFA senior choreographers and guest artists Richard Brandon Hall, thirteen junior choreographers, comprised of dance performance and choreography majors and dance education majors, will premiere works representing various styles and artistic visions. Among those, Proximity, choreographed by Jessica Kraft, is an exploration of the feat of being touched mentally, physically, and emotionally, and explores the inability to trust others in one's life. Angelique Lipford's choreography will investigate friendship, including aspects of personal struggles and encouragement. Choreographer Stephanie Moran states: "Everyone has a point in their lives where they are forced to knock down barriers." She asks, "Does one ever think about the barriers they create for others?" Tohopka Onatah, meaning 'wild beast of the earth,' choreographed by Colleen M. Weiher is inspired by ideas from Native American culture. Her piece will delve into the connections with the earth, plants, and animals as well as the dancers themselves.

For most of Hebron Christian's Lady Eagles, Saturday's visit to Freedom Ridge Park in Ridgeland was their first. At least it was their first in uniform.
Hebron made its first appearance ever in the softball state tournament on Saturday, and much like their trip to North State last week, they distinguished themselves immediately with a 4-2 win over Hiedelberg.
The Lady Eagles would fall in their next match, a 12-2 defeat at the hands of Silva Bay, but they would rally to stay in the tournament with a 5-4 win over Union Christian.
That set the table for Monday's action that would determine the state champion.
Yesterday the girls were 1-1 in two games, but it was not enough to stay in.
They defeated Franklin 15-7 in game one, but fell to Sylva Bay 8-1 to finish out the 2010 season with a third place trophy.
Chloe Tapley pitched four innings in the game against Franklin, and after the Lady Eagles got a large enough lead, Jessica Flemming took over for the final inning.
The next game saw Sylva Bay chip away at Chloe Tapley and Flemming until they amassed a seven-run lead to put it away.
"I would have like to have had that championship, but where we are is really nice," said Hebron head coach Cass Tapley.
In the Eagles' first game on Saturday, they jumped on the board in the second inning with three runs. The fourth run was added in the fourth.
Two runs in the sixth by Hiedelberg did not rattle starter Chole Tapley, who finished with seven strong innings, striking out 18 batters.
At the plate, Alaina Hill had two hits in three at-bats, as did Beverly Blake, who scored a run.
Jessica Flemming had a hit and two runs. Hillary Arnold scored one run in the game.
"I thought we were very slow with the bat, but that isn't unusual for a first game," said Hebron head coach Cass Tapley. "We got the hits we needed to win, and Chloe shut them down pretty well.'
The next game was Hebron's only loss on Saturday, and that was the Sylva Bay Game.
"We started out well and were up 1-0 until the third, when Sylva Bay took a 3-2 lead," Tapley said. "I still felt good that we were going to sore few more runs, but in the fourth, things just fell apart."
Sylva Bay hit the ball well and put up an eight-run fourth to put it away.
Hill had two hits in the game, including a triple and two runs. Chloe Tapley had a hit, and Magen Tapley had a double and an RBI in the game.
Cathryn Moore had a pair of hits, including a double.
The next game was a redemption match for Hebron, as they took care of Union Christian by one run.
Tori Nichols got the run scoring started in the second inning with a single, followed by a walk to Arnold. Hill was kind enough to follow that with a two-run triple, and she later scored the third run on a pass ball.
Union was able to climb back into the contest in the third scoring three runs to take a 4-3 lead.
In the bottom of the inning, Brittany Ousley led things off with a hit to right field. Hill would reach on an error, and she would be followed by Moore who delivered a clutch double to put Hebron in front 5-4, permanently.
Flemming came into the game in the fourth to relieve Tapley, who finished with 4.2 innings pitched. Flemming pitched 1.1 innings.
"Jessica giving us that last inning and a third was huge," Tapley said. "Chloe had been completely out of gas for quite a while, but as has been the case all year, another senior stepped up, this time in the circle and at the plate."
That win gave Hebron life in the state playoffs.
"I can't say enough about this win," Tapley said. "We were playing a tough team after being at the field for some 12 hours and we were beat up. We are putting on the bandages and ice packs."
At the plate, Moore had the double and two RBI. Nichols had a hit and one run. Ousley finished with a hit, as did Arnold.
Magen Tapley had been injured in the first game, after being hit in the mouth with a pitch, but she returned to play the final two games of the series, pushing it to Monday.
