The first reaction of compound (1) is the reduction of the two nitro groups by.
Because this is a reduction, it can be written as two half-reactions. First, consider the reduction of a nitro group. Six protons and electrons are needed to produce the amine.
With two nitro groups, this equation is doubled.
The oxidation of S2O42- produces HSO4-. This produces six protons and electrons.
Because 12 [H] equivalents are required, hence half-reaction must be doubled.
Add the two reactions together to give the balanced equation for this first step.
This is written with the chemical structures to give the following equation.
The next steps are shown that for the protonation of two amine groups in the compound.
The final step oxidizes the hydroquinonamine to a quinonimine and removes an equivalent of from the remaining amine.
The oxidation of a hydroquinone-like molecule is a two-electron process.
Iron(III) can be reduced to iron(II) as shown below.
Two [H] equivalents are produced by the oxidation, so this equation is doubled.
Combine the two half-reactions to give the full equation for this step.
The three equations for each step can be combined to give the following overall equation.

Pistorius' brother facing charge in traffic death
Others have described him as a reckless risk taker who has been in trouble before, such as a boating accident in 2009 which put him into a hospital intensive care unit.
But in a report on Sunday, a South African man who said Steenkamp had stayed at his home since September, described Pistorius as moody and impatient. Cecil Myers, whose daughter was close friends with Steenkamp, said in an interview in the City Press newspaper, that Pistorius will have the killing of Steenkamp on his conscience. "I hope he gets a long sentence. Gets what he deserves," said Myers.
Pistorius appeared "very nice and charming to us when they started dating," said Myers. Myers said Pistorius initially used to come into the house but later just dropped Steenkamp off and picked her up when they began to date steadily, and he described the change as a lack of respect.
Myers recalled their first date and told the newspaper: "After that he wouldn't leave her alone. He kept pestering her, phoning and phoning and phoning her."
According to Myers, Steenkamp "told me he pushed her a bit into a corner. She felt caged in."
Myers said he told Pistorius `'not to force himself on her. Back off." He said that after initially agreeing with him, it appeared that Pistorius soon took no heed.
Myers declined to respond to a request for more information from Associated Press.
In the bail hearing, a character reference for Pistorius, acknowledged that "the only issue in the relationship that I was made aware of was that Reeva sometimes thought Oscar was moving a little fast."
Pistorius was born without fibula bones due to a congenital defect and his legs were amputated when he was 11 months old. He has run on carbon-fiber blades and was originally banned from competing against able-bodied peers because many argued that his blades gave him an unfair advantage. He was later cleared to compete. He is a multiple Paralympic medalist, and won a silver medal at the 2011 Daegu world championships with South Africa's 4x400 relay team. But he failed to win a medal at the London Olympics, where he ran in the 400 meter race and the 4x400 relay race.

The Pittsburgh Steelers not only turned the football over Sunday night in their 40-23 loss to the Chicago Bears, they also turned over their tackles as well due to poor play.
"They hadn't played well enough to justify otherwise," head coach Mike Tomlin said during his post game press conference. "We're going to look at viable guys, we're going to turn the stones over in an effort to find a winning formula and we're not going to be bashful about that."
Starters Mike Adams and Marcus Gilbert played so poorly at different points in the game that Kelvin Beachum played both spots at different times throughout the contest.
"Kelvin Beachum has earned an opportunity to play in the rotation, he did tonight because of it," Tomlin said.
Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was once again under heavy pressure most of the night and Adams and Gilbert share a lot of the blame for that. Neither are handling twist and stunts well and both have technique problems that won't be fixed overnight.
The Steelers travel to London next week to take on the winless Minnesota Vikings and I bet defensive end Jared Allen cant wait for Adams to arrive. Beachum very well might start on the left side, but even he might not be able to handle Allen.
The Steelers have second-round draft picks invested in both Adams and Gilbert and right now both look like backups. The draft is still several months away and it is obvious they will need to burn yet another early round pick on a tackle that can play on the left side if they don't acquire one via free agency.
I wonder if they have tackles under stones in London.
Im still shaking my head over Starks. He couldnt be worse.
It is hard for me to give up on guys so early in their careers, especially guys who were pegged to be good players but I agree that something needs to be done. This is where we are at and we have to make our own bed. Stick with the young guys and coach them up and if they do not improve then we will look for other in the draft. Show these guys you have confidence in them and hope they will get better and perform because we have little choice here.
even if he doesn't start just having a veteran presence to help the kids out should be a plus. Almost like a extra coach
I'm all for playing these young guys and giving them time to gell but Adams..WTH was that he got schooled by j Peppers. Gilbert should be much better he played RT last year and was decent. Not sure what's happening but there was alot of defensive guys with clear paths to the QB
I think the steelers showed a lot of good signs tonight… we spotted them 23 points and the defense save for a 55 yard run… played lights out
Plain and simple I don't know why Adams is with the team?, he get caught smoking marijuana, and last time I cheked that was What get Holmes the ticket out of town.
Gilbert should be playing well as it is his 3rd year, although he has been hurt, but you are right, what the heck is going on here?
If every single player on the Steelers were kicked off the team for smoking weed at sometime in their life we would have like 2 players on the team. Leave the past where it is unless he wants to begin doing what he had done before. I am more worried about what he did tonight in the game!
Next up….Guy Whimper!
oh god no.. Ben woud be on IR
At this point I am almost wondering how much worse he could be. Beachum NEEDS to be starting.
It took more than that to get Holmes a ticket out. Besides, Adams is better than Gilbert.
Exactly, I am just saying that above it all he sucks, so why to bother?
And with the 14th pick kn ths 2014 nfl draft, the pittsburgh steelers select taylor lewan, offensive tackle, michigan
Not enough people are talking about coaching's role in this.
He signed elsewhere this week.
The way they are playing right now, the only way they are seeing the 14th pick is if they trade back.
I think they'll be picking earlier than that.
14 pick? Too optimistic!
I say 5th pick, maybe higher!
point taken.
So they've had 9 turnovers and not a single takeaway yet. I think KC and Philly set the record last year with only 13 takeaways. Right now, 13 looks a long way off. Not being able to get the ball back has been the most frustrating thing for me to watch. They finally started getting some pressure, and I thought that might yield a turnover. But only a few near-misses.
One reporter said that the first impression of Bicknell was that he was unimpressive as an O line coach in TC. Now i see why.
In the PS, I was willing to give him a break. But three games in and the only improvement I have seen is when they finally realized Beachum is better than Gilbert.
I watched the defense to put a lot of pressure, but some how QB are getting away, maybe the problem are the backs and safeties!
Jones has whiffed quite a few times on getting the QB down.
That would be a dream, And they had a great and long run, so why not to get a season to prepare rockies ang get higher in the draft?, because 5 11 its not that bad to be inside the first 5 draft picks!
I really thought he could be a game changer, its too early to say he is not and he had a few plays, but certainly we are lacking of that spark!
Put Beachum in at left move Adams to right where he looked like a road grater last year and put gilbert on the bench to think about what he can do to get better.
In the second half I thought the D played well. Pressure causes QBs to make mistakes. I really hope this is a sign of what's to come. A few takeaways are bound to result, right? Right?
I definitely think he can and will be, but he isn't there yet.
That is step 1
trade rams gilbert for starks
It's really hard to grade the o-line from watching the network's feed, but from what I saw the worse player on the o-line was Foster. I kept seeing him join in to double-team a guy that was already being blocked while a free player made a path straight to the QB. I seem to recall a big penalty with his number on it as well.
Think of the skill players we could have instead of burning all those high picks on underperforming lineman
We have skill players that are good enough to win. What we don't have it a line.
I don't think that is Foster so much as the line overall. I don't think any of them really understand their assignments all that well.
easy fix for next year, keep Fernando at center move Pouncy to guard try to make deal with rams or see if they release starks and place him tackle and try to find another tackle in FA
I dont care if Starks looked bad for SD. The fact is THERE IS NO WAY STARKS CAN BE AS AWFUL AT PASS BLOCKING as Adams was these three games. And the worst thing is hyou could have gotten Starks for cheap and so even if starks failed, you lost nothing. You could have had Beachum and Starks producing stability at tackle. Foster has regressed big time. The only good news is Decastro looked better in this game after his awful underwhel,ming play previously. Velasco has things to learn, but he looks pretty decent, Imagine if Velasco wasnt available , this line would be in total shambles. Why does it take 3 games for Tom;lin and Haley to realize Beachum needs to go in at tackle? Why would they sign a loser like Whimper if he can't replace an awful Adams at LT?
Time to move Adams to RT and see if he can cut it there. GIlbert is a backup for now. Foster has regrssed this year.
The worst thing is these idiots were giving up sacks even when Chicago went to a time killing soft D later inthe 4th Q. How is tha tpossible? Even when the D lets up, you are stil giving up sacks.
Imagine if they had Hoyer instead of keeping Leftwich after the Balt disaster last year and passed on E Sanders to NE. THey could have had 2M extra in cap space, used and extra 3rd and 4th round pick on two players to bolster depth.
I agree that Beachum needs to get some time in to wake these guys up. Adams needs some help over there when you have someone legit on his side. He had a poor showing but it was Peppers he's good people. I will research tomorrow but was he getting any help over there with a pro bowler coming at him? TE or RB chipping? I didn't see much if any.
Why does it take 2 games to give Dwyer a major role? he is a better blocker than Felix. When your line cant block, why wouldnt you put a better blocking RB? Redman is finished. Maybe he is injured. He cant block all of a sudden. he can't run all of a sudden. I dont know what happened ot him. Why are you wasting a gameday spot for him ? Why was Paulson playing today? Why not have Moye and another lineman?
Foster has been a major disappointment. He, Gilbert and Adams have gotten worse.
I agree. Kids need time. They are going up against strong guys with years of experience. The Seahawks had a terrible line a few years ago. They were all young and had trouble staying healthy. Sounds familiar
This defense is an ALMOST good defense. When there is no urgency in the other offense, this defense is gangbusters. But once the other offense shows something, these guys are almost there on sacks. Almost there on pass breakups. Almost there on passdeflection. Oh wait, scratch that. Except Keisel and Heyward, they cant tip passes. LeBeau has to take the blame for his coaching the last two years which got too comfortable with veterans without any urgency to develop the younger players like Heyward, keisel. Heyward will be like Keisel. just as he developes into a decent player, he will be a frree agent.
How the hell does LeBeau feel like Foote is good enough as the only real option without the safety net of a half decent backup? Why does Lebeau not say Sylvestor is not an option to play this year. did it trake all of training camp and preseason to realize Slyvestor was not in their plans after they saw him play for two or so years? THeir late cut of Sylvestor left them with no real options in free agency and the draft was over. At least Hood played a better game, still maybe because he wsa facing rookies on the OL on the right side.
It's quite simple. TRADE FOR STARKS today.
Lol you think we have no corners all we have is guys that can run and tackle no cover skills what so ever.although they're acklung better i never. liked ike or gay ike gets abused on every third down play its third and two. why give the reciever a ten yard cushion go ahead an hate my post just to find out next game i was right again
Someonne explain to me how Chicago which had a worse OL in the recent past were able to get two rookies to be part of a much better line and in th emeantime we are making excuses for the slow development of 2nd and 3rd year players.
Nah, they may be up into Jake Matthews territory!
wow insightful not in any trouble since he got here hand clapping and our new gm is that guy
you tube him
And STILL nobody wants to say nary a negative word about Big Ben!!
I'll say it again, he is a bottom-ten QB now and he singlehandedly lost that game last night, just like he has lost so many others the last two-plus seasons. He had a pretty clean pocket for most of the game.
Somebody needs to do an analysis of how many games the Steelers had a chance in only to have Ben throw an INT or lose a fumble at a critical moment to lose the game in the last two or three seasons. How about it, Steelers Depot? You guys do a great job breaking down stats. Try that exercise out and I bet a lot of Ben lovers that visit this site will be shocked to see the results.
This year will probably be Starks last
Pretty clear pocket? My god his hand was smashed and bleeding, his knees were bent backwards. Several times his arm hit another player. He had no room to step up or scramble. He was being squeezed all night from both sides. Sometimes they came untouched up the middle. However it seems he was having trouble gripping the ball.
Trade who? Whimper?
new offensive line scheme
Really.Ike taylors the problem????I couldn't disagree more.Are you talking this week when he shut down marshall or last week when he shut down green with no help??I'm not gonna like your post but in order to be right again you have to be right the first timr.-just sayin
you have 2 1's and 2 2's on the OL and they are this bad? I think that even the worst drafting teams don't whiff that often. Coaching, coaching, coaching. Need to find an O Line coach who can coach. Is Russ Grimm around?
Did you really just put a space between you and tube? That's like Mc Donald's. Sorry not one for pointing out grammatical errors but this one made me GIGGLE!
I've been blaming the coaching more than the players in these posts and nothing has changed my mind. How many years have we had OL issues and we STILL have them. Both of our #1 picks have gone out in successive years due to friendly fire … some of that is due to bad technique, which goes back to coaching. Team thinks all they have to do is draft high and problem solved. Obviously not.
Here is my question for Tomlin and Kevin Colbert.
You spent all off season evaluating players like Marcus Gilbert and Mike Adams. Did you not have concerns during the off season? Are you actually surprised with how poorly they are playing? So now, you're finally going to attempt to address that position and find replacements.
This just in…….08ers have now banned team from buying snacks out of the snack machine……also next weekend Tomlin says they will unleash hell, the standard is the standard, next man up, etc. etc. etc…..
They will have one of the top three picks. Possibly the first.
3 weeks or maybe even 2 weeks ago I would've laughed at this suggestion. Now it looks pretty good actually. Pretty sad when your 7th rounder is outplaying both 2nd rounders.
I really can't figure out as this point what is worse, the talent or the coaching. Jack Bicknell Jr. is not coaching these guys up well at all. No one seems to understand the protection and the line constantly looks like a jail break. Mike Adams is getting handled consistently and Gilbert looks like he's giving up on every play.
I read somebody mentioning Duane Brown (Texans) getting manhandled for 3 sacks as a rookie early on- and now is a Pro Bowler. Adams has his ups and downs. There were plays he held his own. He is young and has the potential. This is my answer- move Adams to right tackle, draft one of the elite left tackles coming out (there are three-Bama, Mich, A&M)…then resign Velasco. This gives position flexibility. If Pouncey plays and has a dominant year, he'll want too much money, let him walk. Sign a free agent guard to play aside the rookie left tackle. Then you have Foster, Beachum and Velasco as options. (release Gilbert) And when you look at the Cap numbers, you are paying six of the eight lineman rookie salaries, Foster a manageable cap hit, and Velasco the same. There's your 8. Get a safety to team with Thomas.
Anyone else notice that the Bears ran twists and stunts on practically every play in the 4th quarter or was that just my imagination?
They need an early first round pick and make a move to get a top LT is what they need to do in the next off season
I wont' say clean…to Walter's point, he got banged around…but there were often times he could step up and make a throw. What is happening is they guys are sending six or seven guys and we can't protect that. Ben never likes the hot read… So when there is more rushers than blockers, that's where he is in trouble… I laughed when Sanders caught the screen the right way the second time and Collinsworth was praising him like he learned to ride a bike…umm, does he not know how to run the play??? Back to Ben, I think he can be selfish wanting to make the big splash play. Live to paly another down- literally and figuratively. He is such a prima donna getting up slow, but he often causes that himself because he doesn't have the internal clock or accuracy of the elite QBs IMO
I'd say, they'll have an earlier pick than the 14th pick
And apparently a better line coach than Bicknell Jr.
I agree
This season is going to be a down season and a learning season for many of the young players. We just have have to accept that. Yes it hurts to watch these games with them playing like they have being a big steeler fan. They will get an early draft pick for the first time in a while and hopefully draft a top LT with that pick.
Jaguars will probably have the first pick
For next year! how about they draft a top LT with an early draft pick
LeBeau has his CB's playing too far off of the WR's and his secondary (except for Troy) playing too soft
Just like the chiefs hired a better special teams coach. Tomlin has been looking in the wrong places and hiring position coaches for the wrong reasons
Colbert and Tomlin should be blamed some also on putting the team together and a bad product on the field
We need more ol man with the fire inside like Richie Incognito but who play a lot smarter and control their temper, but his competitive spirit is about winning.
I'll take Lewan or Matthews. Good thing we took Landry Jones and not Bakthiari or Jordan Mills…
As we were getting demolished I kept thinking "the standard is the standard" and the standard is garbage. Sloppy, no direction
His accuracy has been especially poor this year. Overthrowing and underthrowing a lot. Especially overthrowing. I feel like he's trying to do too much
Enough of this crap! Yes, they are young, but C'mon Man! These guys are pathetic! Gilbert? The guy acts like he doesn't even want to play football. I agree, I think Adams is better suited for the RT position. Neither one of them are capable of playing LT. I blame that solely on Mike Tomlin; he has done a poor A$$ Job evaluating talent. His O/L Coach is worthless! Todd Haley isn't Bruce Arians, but he has opened up the Offense. Although it still kills me on some of his play calls; Big Ben? Hmm! Curious to know why know one on here has given him some of the blame too. Yes, his O/L is pathetic, I get that. But how many times have we seen this guy throw a pick six deep in his territory? The fumbles? Like I've always said, he gets in the way of himself far too often. There is nothing wrong with throwing the ball away and living for another down or series. But oh no, he has to make a splash play on every play. Big Bens play has started to hurt the team far more than it has helped. He deserves some blame as well. I was at the game last night, first time watching the Steelers in Pittsburgh, very exciting, the outcome was pathetic. Antonio Brown is an all around better WR than Mike Wallace, lets put that argument to rest. The only thing Wallace has over Brown is speed, and he's more physical at the point of attack. The Steelers better start thinking about drafting a LT or spend some Damm Money During Free Agency and pick one up. The current experiment has gone no were with Adams and Gilbert. And for the life of me, why in the hell doesn't Colbert look at Colleges such as Alabama, LSU and Wisconsin for Offensive Lineman? He deserves just as much blame as Tomlin.This team has no dept at all. Poor drafting by Colbert the previous 7yrs in the middle rounds.
Don't forget the great talent evaluator Colbert drafted Kraig Urbik in 2009 w the second pick in the 3rd round….oh wait they cut him for….Ramon Foster…nevermind
You missed the sarcasm. I KNOW he sucks. So do Adams and Gilbert currently.
I'm praying for this at least.
It' wasn't a month ago when i said "these are the same guys that stunk it up a year ago" and don't expect good thing because they are who they are. The biggest problem is poor coaching it all started with Haley. KC. finally figured it out look where they are at. BTW they didn't have to get new players just a new coaches and a game manager at QB. What are we waiting for for nothing will change until the problem is fixed. Start by letting loose of Haley and Bricknell. Then replace them with quality coaches [not so and so kid] . It's going to take a very good coach or two to turn this mess around.
I wish we would get back to grading based on play and not on draft status.
Which two?
He shows signs of greatness…don't forget, James Harrison was looking for work his first year or two out of college.
I somewhat agree. On third and 2 play press coverage and dare the QB to get 30 yards or a TD. That's a low percentage play, make them drop back 5 or seven steps and make that throw. Giving them 5 yards is maddening.
Really hasn't worked for us yet, with the tackles both I think were #2's
I said it last week and I will say it again. Jones will be better on the inside just like Timmons is.
you may be right then go into F.A. and find a couple the 2 we got now don't like interested or just don't get it. Dominate college next level little more intense.
They cut Urbik to keep Hills, not Foster. Which is even worse.
Wikipedia says otherwise. Maybe you can edit it correctly. I'd leave link to it but I think Dave frowns upon that.
14th pick. Bwahahahaha.
Kills me when people start talking like this 3 games into a career. When's the last time a rookie has come in and played as well on defense as him as a starter?
Perhaps there's one or two hiding behind the rocks of stonehenge?
Pay close attention when we play against a good qb (not the next two games ) they go after ike gay also
This is the
Why is Wikipedia weighing in on opinions in the first place? It is true that Foster beat him out as the top backup guard in that year, but at the time Foster was a two-position player and they chose to keep Foster and Hills to have two OTs rather than Foster and Urbik to have two OGs.
The steelers will turn this around. I say 8-8 to 9-7 is not impossible.
I dont really understand..Of course they are gonna go after ike and gay.If cortez is playin they will go after him also.Thats what qbs do ..They throw to their wrs covered by cbs.The fact is our secondary is the very least of this teams problems..
Their OT are the worst in the NFL ! Another point I would like to make is This Guy Zoltan, may be the worst Punter in the NFL. WHAT was wrong with Keeping Butler, who looked god in the Pre-Season. He kicks them higher and further than this Pirate Mascot ! Bring Back Butler !
These Steeler OT's are the Worst in the NFL ! Another guy who is the Worst in the NFL, is their Punter, the Pirate Mascot, Zoltan ! He is Terrible. Why leave Butler go, who looked good in Pre-Season. Butler kicks them Higher and Further than this BUM ! BRING BACK BUTLER !
I think you fail to realize my point there are certain cbs qbs avoid i.e revis(b4 the injury)seattles cb

Unrivaled Belle wins BC Ladies' Classic
"She left them for dead leaving the three-eighths pole. I mean, it was over," Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott said.
Blind Luck ran next-to-last until rallying with three-eighths of a mile to go under Joel Rosario. She returned $3.20 and $2.40. Havre de Grace paid $4 to show.
After the fight and inquiries into the results of the first two races, things settled down until ending on a controversial note in the Ladies' Classic.
Life At Ten, the 7-2 second choice, finished last, and jockey John Velazquez later said the filly wasn't warming up well before the race. She broke sluggishly, quickly dropped back and lost contact with the rest of the field after a half-mile.
"She seemed OK," Velazquez said. "She never put in any effort whatsoever. I tried to warm her up and wake her up, and she just never felt like running."
Trainer Todd Pletcher said Life At Ten was "abnormally quiet, almost sedated-like" while being saddled. He speculated the 5-year-old mare might have had an allergic reaction to Lasix, an anti-bleeding medication legal in Kentucky.
"It's a tough situation for Johnny to be in," Pletcher said. "He asked the vets to look at her and she was moving soundly but clearly she probably should not have run. Of all the horses we've run over here today, none were doing better than her."
Pletcher's other entry Malibu Prayer finished 10th.
Life At Ten is owned by Candy DeBartolo, the wife of former San Francisco 49ers owner Ed DeBartolo Jr.
In the other races:
-Eldaafer won the 1 3/4-mile Marathon by 1 3/4 lengths for Velazquez and trainer Diane Alvarado. He paid $23.20 to win.
-Flay's horse More Than Real won the $1 million Juvenile Fillies Turf by two lengths under Garrett Gomez and paid $29.20. It was Pletcher's lone win on the day.
-Dubai Majestry won the $1 million Filly & Mare Sprint by 2 1/4 lengths, giving jockey Jamie Theriot his first BC title. She paid $19.20.
-Awesome Feather won the $2 million Juvenile Fillies by 2 1/4 lengths, making jockey Jeffrey Sanchez and trainer Stanley Gold winners in their BC debuts. She paid $10.40.
-Shared Account and jockey Edgar Prado won the $2 million Filly & Mare Turf by a neck in the day's closest race. She paid $94.

Great article. As a woman who has worked in the high-tech field, for 25 years I have run into many of these issues, but I find that the most successful companies embrace a shared culture of intelligent women and men working together and appreciating everyone's differences. I agree that girls need to be encouraged to pursue STEM from a young age. I'm a huge proponent of everyone learning to code from a young age. We teach our children other "foreign languages" -- let's teach them another that has helped form many of he great innovations in our current, an foreseeable future, world.
Hi Vivek-
Always appreciate your support of women. I agree with your suggestions and want to add a key one that is missing: Sponsorship. Mentors are great for development but to help advance women in tech (or elsewhere), someone needs to advocate for them when decisions are being made on personnel moves.
Hello Mr. Wadhwa:
I've asked you this before and I'll ask you again: If the gender disparity in the Silicon Valley tech workforce is indeed a problem that should be corrected, then is the fact that a highly disproportionate percentage of Silicon Valley tech workforce also happen to be Asian-American also a problem that should be corrected?
For example, 34% of Google's US workforce consists of Asian-Americans, compared to a 6% of the entire US population that is Asian-American. Nor is Google an outlier; I suspect that most other Silicon Valley tech firms also hire an unusually high percentage of Asian-Americans. If Silicon Valley ought to hire more women to achieve gender balance, should Silicon Valley then fire most of its Asian-American workers to achieve racial balance? If not, what's the difference?

Quality line holder By Brazenhead on 3/15/2015Brazenhead would recommend this product to a friendGood quality well made line holder. Magnets could be stronger, but overall very nice.
Works great and looks good!! By Robert on 2/13/2015Robert would recommend this product to a friendMy sump shows on my setup and I am looking for things that have a good look to them. Not only does this one look good but it does a great job at keeping the lines in place. Great product.
Nice By Old Salt on 1/17/2015Old Salt would recommend this product to a friendPackaging reminds me of Apple. Works well. I've got it holding tubes from my dosing pumps. Pricey, but it looks so cool that you'll get over how much you paid for it.
Excellent quality and works great By Jay on 9/24/2014Jay would recommend this product to a friendExcellent quality product, I am using mine to hold my ato hose. I don't have to worry that the hose might find its way out of the sump as the magnets keep the holder in place and the thumbscrews keep the hose secure.
So Close to Perfect By Jack on 3/14/2014Jack would recommend this product to a friendI really like this magnetic line holder and it is incredibly well made with super strong magnets and even titanium screws so they won't rust. However, there is one minor fault I have with this: standard airline tubing slides right through this. Only the thicker walled airline is held in place - they need to make the screws like 1/8" longer. Like everyone else, I wish it were less expensive. However, I guess the price can't really be too much of a problem since it took me like 4 months of checking back at BRS constantly to finally grab one while it was in stock!
Classy solution By Saltyhog on 2/7/2014Saltyhog would recommend this product to a friendI'm using it to secure my dosing tubes and my ATO tube. Works great and looks better. I may get the matching probe holder.
Great producy By Mackjr1969 on 12/31/2013Mackjr1969 would recommend this product to a friendLittle pricey because of the heavy duty magnets, but works great inside sump! Using it to hold auto top hose, and sipon pump hose!
Alright product By Softplan on 12/30/2013Softplan would recommend this product to a friendI would have rated it better, but on a 75 gallon sump the magnets aren't strong enough to safely secure it.
Well engineered product By Bert on 12/6/2013Bert would recommend this product to a friendA high-end solution to ensuring your tubing stays where you want it inside a tank. Strong magnets do their job and it's apparent this is a well engineered solution if you're looking for top quality.

Leader of the Opposition V.S. Achuthanandan came under fire from friends and foes alike on the first day of the two-day CPI(M) State committee meeting here on Tuesday.
The veteran leader faced criticism for his decision to proceed to Kudankulam defying the party decision not to associate with the stir currently on against the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant. Mr. Achuthanandan, publicly censured by the party Central committee for his action on Sunday, was told that his action amounted to serious breach of party discipline. What was noteworthy about the discussion was that he was criticised not only by his detractors in the party, but also by some of his loyalists.
The discussions in the party forum were on the basis of the CPI(M) Central committee resolution on the subject. The Central committee had directed Mr. Achuthanandan to fall in line with the stand adopted on the issue of nuclear power plants by the party at its 20 Party Congress in Kozhikode. Polit Bureau member S. Ramachandran Pillai briefed the State committee about the Central committee's deliberations on the subject.

PHILADELPHIA ( MainStreet) -- Accretion can be as simple as two plus two.
Company A, with earnings per share (EPS) of 43 cents merges with, combines with or acquires Company B. Company B has an EPS of 22 cents. If the deal results in an EPS total of 65 cents per share (43 + 22), then it is declared to be accretive. Actually, if the combined EPS is anything more than the acquirer's original 43 cents then it is considered accretive, as in resulting in growth. The arithmetic fact is shouted from the rooftops. Company executives brag to the Board of Directors, to the shareholders, to reporters and to analysts. And the general response is oh-so-positive.
|Accretive acquisitions are the desirable option for shareholders, as opposed to dilutive acquisitions.
Fundamentally, an accretive acquisition is any acquisition that will increase the EPS calculation for the company that makes the purchase. The opposite of an accretive acquisition is referred to as a dilutive acquisition. Just as no one wants a diluted martini, no one wants to promote and brag about something that decreases the relatively easy-to-discuss measure called earnings per share.
The word "accretive" is not so commonly used and thus it sounds like it just might be financial industry lingo for a really great outcome. But is it really all that simple? Of course not.Growth is important and it is the goal of every company executive to provide growth to the shareholders. Several companies, such as Watson Pharmaceuticals (WPI) or Canada's Whiterock REIT (WRK-UN.TO), are upfront about their desire for accretive acquisitions. But EPS growth is not necessarily true value creation... Enron proved that. Carol Heiberger is the author of ExecuSpeak Dictionary.

Bob Dylan Covers A Classic Tune
By Bob Boilen
A new Bob Dylan recording popped up on his site just now. You have to go there to hear it — it's a version of the classic 1945 song, "Full Moon and Empty Arms." The tune is written by Buddy Kaye — known for writing hits for Sinatra, Ella and Elvis — and Ted Mossman, and based on Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2.
All this hints at a new record, perhaps a covers record of classic tunes. Dylan has done this in the past: In 1992 and 1993, he put out two collections of great folks songs of the past, Good As I've Been To You and the darker World Gone Wrong.
When I know more I'll pass it along.

I had someone ask me about a tomato variety called Saudi Arabia. He grew it last year and it was a hit, but he didn't save any seeds. I think the lesson has been learned, because this year he can't find it anywhere. I thought I would try to help out. Has anybody heard of this one, or better yet, know where the seed can be located?

The North Side Municipal Election Claimed to be Corrupt
There were charges of corrupt and illegal practices at the North Side Municipal election yesterday and preparations were being made to contest the election for borough constable.
Helen Snyder, 86, Punxsutawney, died Friday, April 15, 2011, at Punxsutawney Area Hospital.
She was born Oct. 26, 1924, in Juneau, a daughter of the late John and Elizabeth (Tretzler) Lezak.
She was married to Arnold M. Snyder, who preceded her in death in 1992.
Mrs. Snyder was a secretary. She was also a member of the First United Methodist Church in Punxsutawney.
Surviving relatives include two nieces, Stacey Love of Punxsutawney, and Heather Serian Kunselman of Smyerstown; four nephews; several great-nieces and nephews; and several great-great nieces and nephews.
HOLLIDAYSBURG — Four errors, 10 strikeouts and 10 men left on base dropped the Punxsy baseball team to its first loss of the season Friday, 6-1, at Hollidaysburg.
The Chucks (4-1) fell behind 6-0 after four innings before they scored their only run in the fifth. While the Golden Tigers (5-1) were building their lead with two runs in the first and third innings and one run in the second and fourth innings, Punxsy was leaving multiple runners on base nearly every inning.
Of the 10 runners Punxsy stranded, five occurred during the first two innings.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — The first phase of the VFW Teener League's $250,000 improvements of Rich Kuntz Memorial Field have been completed.
The first step was the installation of new bleachers that were recently built down both lines between the concession stand and the home and away dugouts.
Punxsutawney native Devin Mesoraco had one of the best opening weeks of his minor league career with the Cincinnati Reds, hitting .320 with three home runs and eight RBIs through eight games.
Mesoraco, who plays for the Class AAA Louisville Bats, hit solo home runs during his first, fourth and sixth games before registering a five-RBI performance during his seventh game Wednesday.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — It all began with CB radios, and now celebrating its 35th anniversary, the Punxsutawney Radio Emergency Associated Communications Team (REACT) has become one of the premiere volunteer safety organizations in Punxsutawney and around the world.
It has been 35 years since Ken Haynes and Bill Murray first established what was known back then as Punxsutawney Radio Emergency Services (PRES), which would later become REACT.
Charlie Hoeh, REACT member, said the club originally began in 1976 by monitoring Citizens Band (CB) Radio Channel 9 for motorist emergencies.
CLARION — More than a year of investigations culminated Friday when Clarion County District Attorney Mark Aaron announced the arrest of 11 alleged heroin dealers.
The investigation involved anonymous informants, Clarion Borough Police, the Clarion Heroin Task Force, the Youngstown (Ohio) Police and the Mahoning Valley (Ohio) Crime Task Force.
Six of the alleged dealers are Clarion-area natives: Krystal Clark, Rimersburg; Nicholas Beichner, Rimersburg; Marla Forbes, Leeper; Sara Kirkpatrick, Leeper; Barry Beichner, Kossuth; and Thomas Novak, Marienville.
Josephine Beyo, 92, Punxsutawney, died Thursday, April 14, 2011, at Wellington Heights.
She was born Oct. 27, 1918, in Rossiter, the daughter of the late Nicola and Bisolina (DelPrincipe) Finamore.
In August 1953, she married Michael B. Beyo, who preceded her in death.
Although born in Rossiter, Mrs. Beyo was raised in Pescasseroli, Italy. She returned to the United States in 1939.
Mrs. Beyo was a seamstress at Pramco in Punxsutawney. She was also the co-owner of Beyo's Keystone Service Station in Punxsutawney.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — When Punxsy senior Ashley Barenchik rounded first base Thursday during the fifth inning of a tie game with Altoona, she wasn't sure if she would make it to second.
Barenchik compensated for what ended up being an extremely close play at second base by sliding head first, and that extra effort led to her being safe for the double.
Barenchik's determination to get into scoring position led to her scoring the go-ahead run later that inning to help the Lady Chucks improve to 3-0 with a 5-4 victory Thursday over Altoona.

A winning idea for wall-climbing

Article Summary
Last month we told you about a team of Brigham Young University engineering students, who created a clever Batman-inspired wall-climbing system. They were competing in the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory's 2012 Service Academy and University Engineering Challenge, in which teams had to design gadgets that would allow soldiers to safely and quickly ascend vertical surfaces. Given that the Brigham Young entry didn't take first place, however, we thought it only made sense to take a look at the entry that did ... and that would be a little something known as the Personal Vacuum Assisted Climber (PVAC), designed by a team from Utah State University.

Pro-marijuana advocates are looking to bring about significant change in the United States this November, hoping to capitalize on the recent successes in Colorado and Washington.
Just as Washington is revving up to impose limits on "tax inversions" on corporations seeking tax havens in other countries, along comes this study to show just how uncompetitive the United States already is.
Senator Tom Coburn wants the states to hold a Constitutional Convention (Con-Con) to add a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution. He would also like to have the Con-Con add an amendment mandating term limits for members of Congress.
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives' Liberty Caucus have become the sole congressional voice openly speaking out against President Obama's proposed third war in Iraq.
Despite American intelligence services declaring that ISIS poses no immediate threat to America, President Obama plans to scale up the war against ISIS without proper authorization.
In a meeting September 11 with members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough promised the congressmen that President Obama will act on immigration "reform" before the end of 2014.

Magazine and Directory Publishing in Australia Industry Market Research Report Now Updated by IBISWorld
The performance of the Magazine and Directory Publishing in Australia industry is being hampered by intense competition from digital media. For this reason, industry research firm IBISWorld has updated its report on the Magazine and Directory Publishing industry in Australia.
Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) July 12, 2013
Magazines entertain and inform consumers on particular areas of interest, periodicals inform and educate readers about specific topics and provide details about related developments, and directories and mailing lists help people to find other people, organisations and places. Magazines can also provide a medium for readers' aspirations, which can also make them an attractive medium for advertisers. According to IBISWorld industry analyst Alen Allday, "most directories tend to rely on advertising for income, while mailing lists are mainly sold to businesses for their own advertising campaigns." Therefore, the main final markets for the Magazine and Directory Publishing industry in Australia are households and businesses.
The industry is expected to generate revenue of $3.1 billion in 2013-14, down 4.7% for the year. Industry revenue is expected to decrease by an annualised 6.5% in the five years through 2013-14 due to increased competition from internet sources and lower revenue streams from online publications. "Industry revenue is expected to contract due to a weaker advertising market and a drift away by readers and advertisers from printed media to online media, which the industry is having difficulties taking advantage of," says Allday. Industry profit margins have come under pressure due to the slump in revenue over the past five years. The industry has responded by introducing online content that complements existing printed publications and by deepening their involvement in specific markets. However, this has added another layer of costs. Online profit margins tend to be lower compared with print margins. While this trend is expected to continue in future years, publishers are unlikely to develop robust strategies to take advantage of increased online activity. The Magazine and Directory Publishing industry displays a medium level of concentration, with the four largest companies accounting for a significant portion of industry revenue. Major players include Telstra Corporation Limited, Bauer Media Limited, Seven West Media Limited and News Australia Holdings Pty Limited.
Slight improvements in economic conditions and advertising markets in Australia over much of the next five years will benefit the industry. Industry performance will continue to be hampered by intense competition from digital and competing media. Nevertheless, the internet and digital devices offer publishers opportunities to retain and grow their combined print and online readership, provide value added content through complementary content, podcasts, blogs and analysis tools, and further stratify their markets, all of which could improve selling propositions to both readers and advertisers.

There's no point pretending that any of this good-to-better material would mean as much if he hadn't died. But give him credit for having the chutzpah and formal smarts to play that hand high-low. Like everything here, the title track, a failed-love plaint framed as a message from the grave, could have stayed on the record if Joey had beaten lymphoma. A bigger winner is the lovably embarrassing Louis Armstrong corndog "It's a Wonderful World," already stiffened by the punkest attack on the record and doubly credible from a mortally ill man. Similarly, the straightforward music and chin-up sentiments of "I Got Knocked Down (But I'll Get Up)," precisely the content his enfeeblement called for, would have remained so if in fact he had gotten up. But they're doubly poignant because he didn't.
On Too Tough to Die, which nobody is forever but the Ramones remained for much longer than anybody gave them, Joey sings a Dee Dee song called "I'm Not Afraid of Life." The Ramones all earned that boast. Joey's earning it at this moment.

Verizon Wireless to Join China Mobile, SOFTBANK and Vodafone in Creating the Largest Global Platform for Mobile Developers
Initiative to Help Developers in Creating Fun and Useful Mobile Widgets for Approximately 1 Billion Customers
The addition of Verizon Wireless, a joint venture of Verizon Communications and Vodafone, would mean that the JIL now has a combined customer reach of approximately 1 billion consumers.
The JIL will initially focus on creating a single global platform for developers to encourage the creation of a wide range of innovative and useful mobile widgets. These mobile widgets will be capable of enhancing the mobile Internet experience on a variety of smartphones as well as mid- and low-cost handsets on multiple operating systems.
As part of this initiative, the JIL plans to launch later this year a range of tools to encourage innovation among global mobile developers. The tools include: a common mobile widgets specification; easy-to-use developer kits; and an online repository, distribution and payment mechanism to ensure developers can roll out their products to customers in more than 70 countries across
"This partnership will enable four of the world's leading mobile operators to pool their combined expertise, innovation and scale for the gain of customers across the globe," said JIL Chairman
Mobile widgets are capable of boosting handset functionality as well as transforming the look and feel of a device to give customers quick and easy access to valued content. They are personalized, always-accessible mini applications that sit on a handset to retrieve relevant information from the Web such as weather reports, sports updates and travel timetables.
The JIL mobile widgets specification is set to enrich these services further by enabling developers to access both handset and network functionality such as the address book, camera, location information and billing in a secure environment.
The JIL has been working in close cooperation with a range of industry standards bodies such as the OMTP and the GSMA to outline specifications that will make it easier for developers to create widgets that run on a wide range of handsets, operating systems and networks.
The JIL also welcomes the co-operation of vendors, developers and other operators in the creation of new applications and services.
China Mobile has been playing a leading role in the development of the mobile communications industry in
For eight consecutive years, China Mobile has been listed in Fortune 500 with a latest ranking of 148.

KUSA - Hundreds of students from dozens of schools throughout Colorado participated in National Bike to School Day on Wednesday.
In fact, more than 70 Colorado schools officially registered for the event, which is part of the campaign for safe routes to school year-round. Of course, it also encourages biking as a healthy way for children and families to commute to school and work.
Now in its second year, National Bike to School Day is modeled after and builds on the popularity of the highly successful International Walk to School Day, which was founded in 1997 as a way to bring community leaders and children together to build awareness of the importance of making our communities more walkable. Likewise, the event creates additional energy during National Bike Month - the month of May.
Since the start of Loveland's Safe Routes to School program - a partnership among LiveWell Loveland, the City of Loveland, and Thompson School District - the percentage of students walking or biking to school has increased from 24 percent to 31.7 percent in just over three years.

Deputies say its like the Grinch who stole Christmas. They say a man broke into a home, stole Christmas presents underneath a tree. He then gave the Christmas presents to the mother of his children. The mother knew of the break in and reported it deputies since unidentified man couldn't afford to pay for the gifts. For more info check out the video at the right.

Date Reviewed: October 18, 2009
Strengths: Solid, Stable, geometry, attention to detail. Great customer service.
Weaknesses: Weight, huge walking beam is blocking the view of the cassette. I wish the seatpost size is either 30.9 or 31.6
Bottom Line:
First thing first, the frame has a beautiful finish. with the large walking beam it looks scary. Great attention to detail, carbon bridge is a nice touch although, I was told that it does make contact to the QR collar when bottom.
It's a great climber, while it pedals heaver than my 32lbs Reign, it making up big time on the technical climb. I cleared sections that I couldn't clear on my reign and 5.5. The pedal bob is quite minimal I didn't bother setting the pro pedal on the DHX air.
Cruising the single track and descending
This bike is just plain awesome. I descent the first part of my familiar singletrack with switch back at the bottom of the long first straight. I just nailed the straight and carve that SB I just couldn't believed it. It's so balanced and stable. I did a couple of high speed drop over the water bar just routine on this bike. I'm quite impressed.
I took the indicator off my shifter to make more room on the bar with all the remotes. Usually is ok on my other bikes I just have to look down to see how many gear I have left but on the Moment is quite difficult to do because it's hard to see.
I highly recommend this bike to people who's considering a beefy do it all kinda bike that's not afraid to shine on the climb. I'll post the update in a few months. I'm sure it will be good

Date Reviewed: March 14, 2009
Strengths: Astonishing traction and handling: between the Moment frame, the Fox shocks (especially the adjustable Talas travel), Stan's notube rims, and the TRULY REMARKABLE Rohloff 14-speedhub, this bike handles technical terrain like a spider running across a rock wall.
Weaknesses: Weight. Expense.
Bottom Line:
Drivetrain derailleurs and shifting are absolutely the bane of MTBers. Nothing can shake your enjoyment of a ride like shifting issues. Rohloff solves that - for good.
What I didn't appreciate until I started using the Speedhub is that it makes single track easier - instantaneous shifting >> means optimal gearing >> means better torque and leverage on the bike.
Chain-slap? Never again. Wrong gear? Never again. Derailleurs? Never again.
I loved my Ellsworth Id, but the Moment blows it away. The suspension is plush, it hugs everything. The instant center tracking and the Horst linkage keep everything in line and on the trail, even through rough technical terrain.
As built, I've turned the Moment into a 32-33 pound trail bike. It climbs great, but it's not a cross-country rig. No question, this is a big investment. But I won't be servicing much other than changing tires until it is time to service the Fox shocks.

So I just bought a NIKE PRO COMBAT SHORTS and I'm wondering if it's alright to wear them without underwear and simething on top of it?
<laughing> Hey dude... it all depends on you.... They are intended to be compression shorts so they should fit really tight, and so no, you won't wear underwear under them. Wearing something over them depends on you: where you run, what kind of shape you are in, and who you run into. Me personally, I wear a pair of light shorts over my compression shorts. My junk is my junk... :-)
Alright. Thanks very much!

I finally found a way to resurrect my old rhinestone brooch - too pretty to throw out. Now it's the centerpiece of my beaded flower - again, a mix of new and vintage beads on wire.
Very smart idea and added beads look terrific! May try something with my late Mother's jewellery (can't part with it but can't wear it either). Just love this transformation. Great job!.
I've really been admiring your work with these pins .. they are beautiful!!
I"m not usually a "flower" person, I prefer abstracts, but this is an exception. Even though its easily recognizable as a flower, to me it seems to have an abstract quality to it. It's gorgeous!
I love your beaded flower brooch. Do you seel the patterns for your designs or are the brooches just for sale.
I'm working on instructions for kits I'm planning to sell for the Christmas holiday season. Should be available in about a month. You can check on my facebook fan page for updates (I'm almost done with the first pattern kit and will do 4 more - each will be for a different design).
Facebook page is: http://www.facebook.com/#!/TFDeltaDesigns
Thanks for the feedback everyone! I really appreciate all your kind words...
Beautiful,Love the colors and design.
Love It
gorgeous! Just saw this on pinterest....so creative! Love it!
Wow! I adore it. Great idea for a terrific result. Congratulations
I love it - looks amazing

Originally written on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 11/13/14
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Redskins have reached an agreement with DE Darryl Tapp on a one-year deal. Tapp, 28, was limited to playing just 257 snaps for the Eagles last season, but despite the limited role, he's been a fairly productive player for them, according to Pro Football Focus' ratings. He'll be asked to move to outside linebacker next season, but he could prove to be a decent addition for a team that was hit hard by injuries to their front-seven last year. The post Report: Redskins Reach An Agreement With DE Darryl Tapp appeared first on NFL Trade Rumors -.

Grand Theft Auto V, you've been very good to us this week. A rash of ten screenshots spread out over the last five days has shed more light on the upcoming game than anything since the beloved trailer that came out last year.
This current batch showcases some fantastic action shots and, if they're any indication, this game is going to be intense. Hanging off of car transporter trucks in heavy traffic? Hell yeah! Not sure what we'll be doing wit that biplane but if there's any game franchise that's earned the benefit of the doubt, it's this one.
GTA V will be out whenever it's done. Maybe.

Turned off, then removed the ice maker from the freezer and followed the instructions on the video at PartSelect. Installation was very straight forward and exactly as shown on the video. It took longer to empty and dry out the ice maker than the repair. Slid the ice maker back into the freezer and turned it on. Works just like new.

The FZ200 hood - A caution
Started Oct 28, 2012 | Discussions thread
The FZ200 hood - A caution
Oct 28, 2012
The hood for the FZ200 mounts to the lens with a firm click. It takes a fair amount of force to mount or dismount it.
So, be very careful to mount of dismount the hood with the camera turned OFF and the lens fully retracted. Mounting or dismounting the hood with the camera ON seems to upset the AF and images are noticeably less sharp or out of focus.
Turning the camera OFF and back ON again seems to reset the lens to full sharpness if you do forget and mount the hood with the camera ON.
I think this may explain some of the unsharp images I (and others) have had from time to time.
I am going to look into modifying the hood to reduce the amount of force needed, and if I am successful I will report back here in a new thread.

April 9, 2014Splendora High School
CLEVELAND, Tx - Splendora used a very strong pitching performance by Junior Justin Reid to defeat the Tarkington Longhorns by a score of 10-4 before a solemn crowd at Longhorn Field.
Splendora scored one in the top of the 1st inning when Aaron Smalley walked, stole 2nd base and trotted home on a Matt Jacquinot base hit. In the bottom of the 2nd, Tarkington would tie up the score as Splendora had an errant throw from 3rd base to allow Trey McLawchilin to reach second base. After Reid struck out centerfielder Johnson, Grudzinski singled up the middle.
Splendora would score 5 runs in the 3rd inning. Smalley lead off with another walk. First baseman Dave Rauch singled to left. Kolby Reed walked. Jacquinot came through again with another single to right for 2 RBI. A couple of passed balls and the Wildcats led 6-1. In the bottom half of the 3rd, Reid would strike out the side of LeJeune, Greenland and Evans.
The 'Cats failed to score in the top of the 4th and Tarkington would counter with 2 runs on 3 hits to close the gap to 6-3. Both teams were held scoreless in the 5th inning. Tarkington would score in the 6th on an error, a stolen base and a wild pitch. Reid struck out 4 hitters in the inning (1 would reach on the dropped 3rd strike rule).
Just as the game got tight, the Wildcats went to work in the top of the 7th. Rightfielder Reed flied out to center field to leadoff. Jacquinot would reach on a shortstop error. After Ty Nixon would pop out to 1st base for the 2nd out, Kam Levis blooped a single up the middle. Pitcher Reid stepped in and walloped a shot over centerfielder Johnson's head, which landed at the base of the wall for a 2-run double and a Wildcat 8-4 lead. Splendora would plate 2 more runs on a couple of base-on-balls and some crafty basepath work...all with 2 outs.
Through the first 6 innings, Reid struck out 15 Longhorn hitters. In the 7th, after giving up a leadoff single, Reid retired the next 3 batters to preserve the victory for Splendora. The 'Cats are now 16-3 on the season and 8-0 in District 22-3A competition, and will host the Huffman Falcons (14-4 & 7-1) in a battle for 1st place (which Splendora currently holds) on Tuesday, April 15th.
In other District 22-3A action, Huffman holds off Shepherd, 2-0 & Coldspring needed 9 innings to defeat Liberty, 9-8. Cleveland had the night off.
The Wildcat JV beat Tarkington by a run. Pitchers, Grant Shuf and Ryan Roebuck combined for the win, while centerfielder Toby Clark threw a bullet to hose a Longhorn runner attempting to tag up at second base and move to third base on a fly ball to right-centerfield. The JV 'Cats have 1 loss in District play.

That was a bit of the reasoning behind "Flights of Fancy," the new 80-proof dessert at the Commodore Grill & Lounge. Anyone who's a Bananas-Foster fan knows that combining liqueur with dessert is one indisputably fine marriage. Executive Chef Anthony Arbeeny takes this one step further, lacing his petit-four-sized squares of marble pound cake and strawberries with a quarter shot of Navan, the new vanilla-flavored cognac from Grand Marnier. "Originally I thought, Why not? Sometimes more is better," explains Arbeeny. "A higher alcohol content differs from what you traditionally see in desserts, and it holds up better against the different flavors." And because the $12 dessert is so spiked with 80-proof liqueur, Commodore asks for ID before taking an order.
Watching Arbeeny assemble Flights of Fancy is pretty amusing, not unlike watching some kooky science experiment that inexplicably involves pound cakeusing a syringe, he and his staff painstakingly inject into the center of each strawberry and cake square the Navan (what Arbeeny describes as "center soaking" it). This allows the liqueur to seep into the rest of the cake or berry slowly, from the inside out. "The dessert is surprisingly smooth," says Arbeeny. "The Navan combines so naturally with the strawberries and pound cake you can't differentiate the elements in each bite." Though it's called a "flight" because the cake and strawberries are served on a tiny-tiered dessert tray, accompanied by a itty-bitty pot of dipping chocolate, don't count on it to have the same effect as a flight of tequila. "The dessert has about a quarter shot [roughly 0.375 ounces], and generally two one-ounce shots would get you intoxicated."
Damn. So much for killing two birds with one stone.
