Rockets to Play Home-and-Home Series vs. Miami Hurricanes in 2015 and 2016
TOLEDO, OH - The University of Toledo will play the University of Miami in a home-and-home football series beginning in 2015, UT Athletic Director Mike O'Brien announced today. The Rockets will host the Hurricanes on Sept. 5, 2015 and travel to Sun Life Stadium in Miami Gardens, FL on Sept. 3, 2016.
"We are very pleased to be adding the University of Miami to our home football schedule," said O'Brien. "The Hurricanes have a great tradition, so this is a very special game for our program. We have played great games in Toledo against many fine football programs in the past, but Miami is arguably the highest-profile opponent ever to play in the Glass Bowl. We are also looking forward to visiting Miami in 2016. That will be a great trip for our football team and our fans."
"I'm excited that we are adding the Miami Hurricanes to our schedule," added head coach Tim Beckman. "This will be a great series for our future Rockets and fans to look forward to."
The Rockets and the Hurricanes have played once before, a 24-14 home-field victory for Miami on Nov. 21, 1987. Miami was ranked No. 3 in the nation at the time in both the AP and UPI polls, and went on to win the national championship that season thanks to a 20-14 win over then-No. 1 Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl. The Hurricanes have won five national titles, in 1983, 1987, 1989, 1991 and 2001.
Miami, which plays in the Atlantic Coast Conference, finished 9-4 (5-3 in the ACC) in 2009.
The Miami game is the latest addition to a challenging and exciting Rocket non-conference home schedule in upcoming years. This fall the Rockets host Arizona and Wyoming; in future years Boise State (2011), Navy (2013), Missouri (2014) and Iowa State (2015) will all visit the Glass Bowl. Previously, the Rockets have hosted schools such as Colorado, Purdue, Minnesota, Kansas, Iowa State, Pittsburgh, Navy, Syracuse, Fresno State and Indiana.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' finale: Cynthia's wedding keeps you (and her) guessing
We have to admit that we didn't properly prepare ourselves for the doom and gloom that was to be the first hour of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" finale. And then the last half hour was so touch-and-go when it came to Cynthia Bailey's wedding, we realized that we should have done like Kim Zolciak and visited a bar beforehand.
The Atlanta gals have always put the "real" in "Real Housewives," but this season they were so unsettled in their own lives that it caused this season to feel manic. And as the finale ended, we can't say anything was really resolved.
Kim: After all that Big Poppa nonsense and then the lesbian fling, we didn't think there was anything Kim could keep to herself.
So, what a surprise that she waited until Cynthia's wedding to finally come clean on her relationship with football player, Kroy Biermann. We guess she's learned something. She does have a nursing degree, after all. And now she's expecting a baby and they're still together, so let's hope for her sake that that part of her life settles.
On the flip side, it looks like her relationship with Kandi Burruss isn't in a good place. We don't understand why Kim feels she's special and that she doesn't have to pay what a normal artist would for a written and produced song. How does she think Kandi makes money?
Kandi: After losing her fiancé last season, we're thrilled to see how well Kandi is doing, but it's obvious she's a bit stuck when it comes to relationships. Maybe, she's really not over his death? And you know what? That's okay, too.
But instead of romance, she admits to throwing herself into her work and clearly she's trying to get her singing career back. We've been pretty clear that we're not fans of Kandi's music. She makes some bomb tracks for other people, but her personal material just doesn't register with us. That doesn't mean there isn't an audience for it, though. We do think she makes magic for other people. Um, Kim? And, obviously Lawrence turned it out on that "Closet Freak" single. But, will Kandi be okay if her singing career never quite takes off?
Sheree: Miss Sheree Whitfield has been a lost ship this season with no sign of getting back to port. What we like about Sheree is that she truly believes every word she says and every step she takes is right. That kind of confidence is hard to find.
But, last season it was fashion. This season, it's acting. We're happy she ended up getting that movie, but did you see her competition in the waiting room?
Plus, that casting team was boughetto and made all that drama for the camera only to cast her in the end. We don't know what she'll be into next, but mostly we think she's best spending money and needs to find that man with the seven figures Phaedra Parks was talking about.
Phaedra: Oh, girl with the problem telling the full truth. She's a big fish in a small pond and clearly she's not as classy as she believes she is. On the bright side, she likes her career, she loves her man and somehow that baby brought her authenticity out. Plus, girl can rock a business suit. So, who are we to judge if she sees the world through glittery eye shadow?
NeNe: We're always shocked that people are so angry with NeNe Leakes this season. She makes this show. Yes, she's loud. Yes, she's liable to strangle a fool. Underneath it all, she's dealing with a son with no realistic goals, a husband who has plain deceived her on more occasions than we believe the cameras have captured and now she has to figure out how to make a living if their marriage falls apart. Everyone is so quick to condemn her, but we think she's doing the best that she knows how in a time any one of us would be falling apart.
We don't blame her if she ends up leaving the show. We know we'll miss her, though. Bloop!
Cynthia: She didn't run. We'll give her that. And in the end, she made the decision that was right for her. We wonder what she did when she found out her sister and mother almost took that choice from her by hiding her marriage license? Reunion question!
It's obvious that the wedding tapped the couple out. The fact that they couldn't come up with just $3,000 for the alcohol and the wedding bands never materialized proves that much. We have to admit we weren't sure if she was just going through with the wedding, because she didn't want to disappoint her guests or if it was because she truly knew Peter was the one.
But when she appeared at the top of the stairs and Peter began to cry, we believe she did it for the love of Peter. And, well, if it doesn't work, she still has her Plan B -- or should we call it "Plan D."
As we mentioned before, this season was very different from previous seasons of "RHOA," and it will be interesting to see how settled we find the the women in Season 4.
What were your thoughts on Cynthia's wedding and where everyone landed in the finale?

For more information about food, wine and dining in Houston, listen to Cleverley's radio show Saturdays at Noon on Talk 650 AM. (By the way, she gives out prizes on every radio show!)
Kenny & Ziggy's Chicken Soup
Source: Ziggy Gruber
- 1 whole chicken
- 3 stalks celery
- 1 large whole onion, unpeeled (find one with a firm, golden-brown peel)
- 2 large whole carrots, peeled
- Kosher salt to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 bunch of dill, cleaned and tied with a string
- 1 bunch of Parsley, cleaned and tied with a string
1. Place all ingredients in a pot and cover with water.
2. Let soup simmer for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
3. When chicken cools, cut into bite-sized pieces. You can add it to the soup, just before serving, or save it for chicken salad.
4. Strain the soup, and discard everything solid except for the carrot and celery.
5. Add salt and pepper to taste. Slice carrot and celery then toss into soup. Also add the chicken pieces if desired. Other options: Add cooked noodles, rice, kasha, or matzo balls.
Kenny & Ziggy's Matzo Balls Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/3 cup schmaltz (rendered chicken fat)
- 1/4 teaspoon plus 1 tablespoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black, or even better, white pepper
- 1 1/3 cups matzo meal
1. Crack the eggs into a large bowl and beat with a fork to mix thoroughly. Beat in the schmaltz, and add the 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper.
2. Stir in the matzo meal, and then mix vigorously with a wooden spoon until completely blended and very stiff.
3. Let stand for 30 minutes. It can be refrigerated, covered with plastic wrap, until ready to use. Up to 8 hours.
Fill a large; wide pot three-quarter full with water. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon salt and bring to a boil over high heat.
4. Wet your hands with cold water so the batter doesn't stick to them, then holding and rolling the mixture between your palms, shape it into perfect balls about 1 1/4 inches in diameter. They will double in size when cooked.
5. Gently place the matzo balls in the boiling water. When all have been added, decrease the heat so the water simmers briskly, but isn't at a rolling boil, when the pot is covered. Cook for 25 minutes, preferably without removing the pot lid.
6. Remove the cooked matzo balls with a slotted spoon. Serve in hot chicken soup.

THE Zimbabwe Karate Union will bring the curtain down on their 2012 programme when they stage the champion of champions tournament in Kwekwe, which will be their last semi-contact event for this year.
The competition, which usually caters for individuals is targeting provinces and will see each province fielding a men and women's team with the men's team being made up of five-fighters while for women it will be three karatekas. The juniors are the only group that will compete in individual events from seven to 17years age-group.
The tournament begins today with a referees' course to prepare the officials with the actual competition starting tomorrow at Kwekwe Sports Club.
ZKU president, Joe Rugwete said instead of having individual events for the seniors they have decided to hold a team event in an effort to promote the sport in all provinces.
"This time styles are not important. We are targeting provincial teams for the seniors and in the individual competition we are going to have juniors only.
"The reason behind this is we are trying to decentralise karate to all provinces. We have Harare they are going to field more than two teams, Mashonaland Central, Midlands, Masvingo and Mashonaland West are also sending their teams. Some provinces are sending individuals at junior level," said Rugwete.
Rugwete said they are expecting a tough competition, as the tournament will be used for selection of national teams.
"This will increase the level of competition because we are also moving towards a panel that selects national team members. Usually the coach and national technical director are responsible for choosing the national team but we are now saying if one cannot make it into the provincial team selected then they cannot make it into the national teams.
"This will raise the level of competition because everyone wants to be part of that team," said Rugwete.
The ZKU president said they are re-launching the technical board during Saturday's tournament.
"We are re-launching our technical board which is in charge of selecting national teams. The board will be chaired by national technical director Paul Danisa, Eugene Moody the referees commission chairman and the technical directors in the provinces.
"We are also going to appoint two other people into the same board at this tournament and have a technical board meeting as we look into next year. We are looking at development of technical directors and coaches. There will be one athlete from the athletes' commission who will represent the needs of athletes," said Rugwete.
The teams will battle it out on a round robin format and the team, which would have won most matches, will claim the championship.

Nothing like some hot and hearty Vegan Pot Pie It's that time of year when something hearty and heavy hits the spot and warms the cockles (wherever they are) of the soul. This rich dish is a meal in one pot and only requires a few ingredients and a relatively small amount of time. Now let's get to some good ol' vegan cooking.
- Prep Time: 15 Minutes
- Cook Time: 40 Minutes
- Serves: 4-5
You Will Need:
- 5 Medium Potatoes (Quartered)
- 3 large Onions (Cut into large wedges)
- 1 Large Bag of frozen Diced Peas and Carrots
- 2 Cups Large TVP Chunks
- 6 Cups Vegetable broth (or 6 bullion cubes)
- 1/2 Cup Soy Sauce
- Water
- Salt and Pepper to Taste
- 1 Batter Batch of Your Favorite Vegan Biscuit Mix (Bisquick made with Soymilk works fine)
- When the potatoes and onions are cut and washed, put them in about a 1/3 full pot of water. Salt and bring to a boil. Cook for about 8 minutes. Add the vegetable broth (or cubes), soy sauce a little more water and the TVP chunks. If you don't happen to be able to find large TVP chunks, you can also use cubed seitan. Continue to boil until the potatoes are cooked and the onion is translucent.
- Add the frozen peas and carrots. This will stop the soup from boiling. At this point, turn down the heat and let simmer. Get out a large glass baking pan and get the Biscuit batter ready.
- With a slatted spoon, get most of the vegetables in the glass baking dish and pour enough broth over it to just cover them. Leave the rest of the broth for when serving.
- Using your hands (I find they are the best tool in the kitchen), just drop the batter over the top, cover it the best you can. There can be gaps- but it will rise and cover it all up.
- Place in a preheated 350 degree oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown. The topping, when cooked, will absorb most the liquid, so the broth that was set aside can be served with it. Perfect for cold and rainy days.
Add this one to you book of vegan recipes.

Misconception: Evolution leads to immoral behavior. If children are taught that they are animals, they will behave like animals.
Response: Humans are members of the animal kingdom. We share anatomical and biochemical traits with other animals, and there are many behaviors that we sharewe care for our young, we form cooperative groups, etc. There are other behaviors that are specific to particular animals. In this sense, humans act like humans, slugs act like slugs, and squirrels act like squirrels. It is unlikely that children, upon learning that they are related to all other animals, will start to behave like jellyfish or raccoons.
Linking immoral or inappropriate behavior to evolution makes no sense.
Morality is not based on what is, but on what ought to be.

Well, it's time for another awkward screen capture. Every time. But! The good news is that I finished my whole30 yesterday. I'm not sure I trust myself beyond these 30 days as I've felt lots of emotional reactions to foregoing many beloved foods. I talk about this in the video but I think I'll be sticking pretty close to what I've been doing this month with possibly a cheat meal once a week.
I do feel great. I have lost weight (got on the scale this morning). It was so freeing to slide that thing away and not think about it for a month. I'm really leaning toward taking the same approach this month: food and heart first and then weighing after really working on the internal issues.
Let's talk in the comments! Are you an emotional eater? Do you struggle with understanding what really makes you lovely? What were your struggles and victories this month?
Be sure to head over to Jessi's for her part of this conversation.

CLARKSVILLE, Iowa - The State Fire Marshal will be in Clarksville Tuesday to investigate the cause of a fire that destroyed a convenience store. The fire has also moved a polling location for Tuesday's elections.
Clarksville Police were dispatched to the Casey's General Store at 213 S Main Street at 1:50AM on Tuesday. Firefighters from Allison, Shell Rock and Clarksville all responded to the scene. Police tell TV9 the building is a total loss. That leaves only one gas station in the small town of about 1,500.
The convenience store was closed overnight, so no one was inside or hurt in the fire. A cause is still under investigation but it doesn't appear to be suspicious. Police say they've narrowed it down to the spot to where they think the fire started inside the building.
The Casey's store is next to a city polling place. Butler County Auditor Liz Williams says voting will now be held at the Clarksville Public Library on West Green Street, which is down the street from City Hall. Polls will be open until 8PM.

Behind the Scenes at Institute of Medicine's Meeting on Chimpanzee Experiments
|August 18, 2011
Chimpanzee experiments are not necessary to test new HIV vaccines. They aren't needed to create a new therapeutic for hepatitis C. Or to develop monoclonal antibody therapeutics. Or to create a malaria vaccine. Or to advance biodefense work.
Those statements from scientists at key research institutions and major pharmaceutical companies came during a recent Washington, D.C., meeting of the Institute of Medicine's Committee on the Use of Chimpanzees in Biomedical and Behavioral Research, which is evaluating the scientific value of chimpanzee experiments.
GlaxoSmithKline and Genentech representatives said their companies develop drugs without using chimpanzees. And hepatitis C treatments from Vertex and Merck were recently approved without the use of chimpanzees.
PCRM's own experts testified about the scientific and ethical problems with using chimpanzees in invasive research. And primatologist Jane Goodall also objected to the use of these highly social animals in traumatic experiments.
The Institute of Medicine committee will issue its report later this year that will affect the future of every chimpanzee in a U.S. laboratory. In the meantime, PCRM is asking Congress to pass legislation to stop funding chimpanzee experimentation and release federally owned chimpanzees to permanent sanctuaries.
We're also asking the U.S. Department of Agriculture to immediately remove 14 aging and seriously ill chimpanzees from a San Antonio experimentation facility. The chimpanzees were taken out of retirement last year by NIH and transferred to Texas Biomed, where they are being used in painful and life-threatening experiments.
The San Antonio chimpanzees have a long history of being used in invasive experiments. Rosie was chemically immobilized 99 times by researchers. Katrina has suffered through at least 36 liver biopsies and has been infected with hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV. Levi has high blood pressure and heart disease, placing him at risk of heart failure and sudden cardiac death. They are all subject to even more experimentation at Texas Biomed.
Let me ask your help in ending chimpanzee experiments and supporting modern research methods that protect human health. Ask your Senators and Members of Congress to pass the Great Ape Protection and Cost Savings Act. You'll find more details at PCRM.org/GAPA.

The Sports Network
By Tim McDonnell, FCS Assistant
DATE & TIME: Saturday, November 24, 12 p.m. (ET).
FACTS & STATS: Site: Hameline Field (3,300) -- Staten Island, New York. Surface: FieldTurf. Television: ESPN3.com. Announcers: Bob Picozzi, Rene Ingoglia. Home Record: Colgate 4-0; Wagner 4-1. Away Record: Colgate 4-3; Wagner 4-2. Series Record: First meeting. Conference: Colgate - Patriot League; Wagner - Northeast. Nicknames: Colgate Raiders; Wagner Seahawks. Head Coaches: Colgate - Dick Biddle (17th season, 133-64 at Colgate and overall). Wagner - Walt Hameline (32nd season, 212-126-2 at Wagner and overall). Playoff Records: Colgate (4-8); Wagner (0-0). Previous FCS Playoff Appearances: Colgate 8 (1982-83, 97-99, 2003, 05, 08); Wagner 0. Sports Network Ranking: Colgate (24); Wagner (NR).
GAME NOTES: Two teams that surprisingly have a lot in common meet in a contest that will be played at Wagner, which is probably the biggest surprise among all host schools in the opening round of the FCS playoffs.
The Seahawks have had an amazing season, winning eight straight games - the longest current streak in the FCS - after starting with an 0-3 record. Amazingly, the team's average attendance is just 2,216, which ranks 116th in the FCS. Hosting a playoff game is a big deal, so everyone involved in the program has to be thankful just to make the field of 20.
Wagner's road to the playoffs is partly related to a huge victory over last year's Northeast Conference champion Albany on Nov. 3, but also a lot of credit has to go to 31-year coach Walt Hameline's defense. The unit ranks 18th in the FCS in total defense, giving up 314 yards per game and 16th in passing defense at 169 yards per game.
There's no question, Colgate presents a unique challenge with the dangerous duo of quarterback Gavin McCarney and running back Jordan McCord. They have accounted for 44 rushing touchdowns in 11 games and average 119 and 147 yards per game, respectively. Even more impressive? McCord averages 5.2 yards per carry and McCarney averages 7.5 yards per carry.
Wagner is led by running back Dominique Williams (1,162 yards, 11 touchdowns) and quarterback Nick Doscher (1,574 yards, 11 touchdowns, one interception), who have spearheaded an offense which doesn't turn the ball over much.
The teams have four common opponents, which is rare for schools in different conferences. Plus, each team defeated the previous conference champion in Lehigh (Patriot) and Albany (NEC), which essentially opened up the door for their chance in the playoffs.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Colgate 33, Wagner 26.

Apple's iPhone 5 May Get an All-Metal Makeover—Is That a Good Thing?
The iPad 2 is only just out in public, but the iPhone 5 rumors are now ramping up, with hints the new phone may get an all-metal makeover. Does this make good sense?
The iPhone 1 had a 75% aluminum rear face, if you remember back through the mists of time to 2007. A full 100% unibody aluminum chassis eluded the designers because of the antenna design used in the phone—resulting in a slightly inelegant black plastic portion for radio transparency. Four years has just scooted past, and now there're hot new rumors the iPhone 5 will get an aluminum unibody chassis—tallying with Apple's design uniformity across the iMac, MacBook Pro, and iPad lineups.
According to Chinese source Economic Daily News, which has had some success in revealing Apple's future plans in advance, the redesign is guided by two headline-grabbing flaws of the iPhone 4: The metallic frame antenna, and the all-glass back. In the case of the antenna, the iPhone 4's redesign (probably falsely, given recent findings by scientists) resulted in the "antennagate" issue, with allegations of wireless connectivity problems if the phone was held in a particular way. The glass back is said to have increased the weight of the phone, displeasing some customers (and, arguably, pleasing others thanks to the sense of "quality" it gives the device), and resulted in structural weaknesses—since now you have two glass panels that could break if you dropped it. There were also issues with white-painted iPhone 4s and insulating the rear camera from leaked light,
So, a reinvention of the iPhone 5 makes sense—Apple may well have learned from the problems and redirected the phone's design to include a new metal back, one that could probably roll off the same production lines as the all-aluminum chassis of the iPad and Macs do, resulting in economies of scale for Apple (and possibly enabling the rumored "cheap iPhone"). It makes the phone more resilient, and solves the camera-light-leak problem.
There's just one issue. Antennas. Apple gets around the problem that a metal chassis blocks wireless radio signals on its iPad and MacBooks by having a radio-transparent plastic "window" cut into the case—it's the Apple logo in both devices (for the iPad's case just the Wi-fi antenna's hidden here, while the 3G antenna is behind another "black plastic bar", partly due to the modular nature of the plug-in 3G board). The iPhone 4's redesign centered on a novel approach to antennas...Apple was very proud of its lateral thinking, making the chassis actually part of the radio system, since this enabled very novel design choices.
It's unlikely to let this cleverness slide for the iPhone 5—the phone would risk looking too much like every generic plastic Android phone out there. We don't know how Apple will reconcile the problem, though we think it's unlikely to return to the ugly plastic bar of the iPhone 1 and more likely it'll work innovatively with yet another antenna redesign. And we're pretty certain it won't look like the rendering that everyone's got on their website today.
Also, if Apple does bow to the public, learn these design lessons, and follow-up with an aluminum iPhone 5, the answer to any question like "Did you get the iPhone 4 wrong?" will be "bite my shiny metal butt!"

I remember last summer Apple bought exclusive rights to some liquid metal production process that promised incredible strength and resilience... here's a link:
I wonder if beyond antenna if there is also radio transparency? That would change the game completely.
oh, how terribly boring jane.
scuttle on back to your cave and stop reading anything to do with apple. it really is quite that simple. and you'll stop annoying the rest of us. now move along .... your done.
Great, more rumors months and months ahead of the release. Until someone leaves a dev version in a bar I don't want to hear about it. Speculation about future apple products is an exercise in futility, Apple makes a few versions of each new device for testing so if someone gets it right early enough Jobsy will just change it before it's released.
Just as rumors said there will be an 7 inch iPad 2, and at last it's 9.7 inch!

Race Car Driver Wearing OSU-Like Lid
Are you an Ohio State football fan in dire need of a fix in advance of the Buckeyes' 2013 season opener against Buffalo on August 31st? If yes, then race car driver Patrick Gallagher has you covered.
Gallagher, an OSU junior, competes on the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) Pro Racing circuit. At this weekend's Mazda Playboy MX-5 Cup stop in Lexington, OH — located roughly halfway between Cleveland and Columbus — he'll pay tribute to his school by donning an awesome, Buckeyes football-inspired racing helmet.
"I am thrilled to have the support of The Ohio State University and the opportunity to wear the school colors on a unique helmet design," Gallagher said on the website of his racing team, C.J. Wilson Racing. "To have the support of so many people from such a large school like Ohio State is an incredible feeling. We will be looking to score a win for the whole OSU group!"
In addition, the helmet will be auctioned off after the race, with the proceeds going toward the Hematosis and Thrombosis Center at the Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus. Start digging into your wallets, Ohio State fans.

Snowy Signy
Welcome to this weeks update on life aboard RRS James Clark Ross. Well, we were all expecting ice this week and the South Orkneys didn't let us down. The JCR has certainly proved her ice breaking capabilities that I mentioned last week and made it round Signy Island to open up the BAS summer base situated there. We dropped supplies of men, food, equipment and helped to drag the base out of the deep freeze it has been in for the last 6 months. Once the base was independent and functional we waved our goodbyes and left John Blunn and his team to several weeks of unpacking boxes! Sorry I'm racing ahead already.
You left us last week dodging icebergs the size of the Isle of Wight in the Scotia Sea on the way from South Georgia to the South Orkney Islands. We encountered some stormy seas on the way and had a pleasant day rolling around in a stiff Westerly. Everyone seems to have got their sea legs by now but it does tend to be a little difficult sleeping whilst rolling around in your bunk (just a little warm up for the Drake Passage later in the season - Ed). It is spectacular to watch waves breaking over the bow of the ship. For a video clip click here.
Fortunately, by Tuesday, we were out of the worst of the weather and penetrated the pack to the North west of Coronation Island. Ice floating on the surface, calms the sea and so we could enjoy the ice without rolling around anymore. We edged past a small chain of rocky outcrops appropriately called 'Inaccessible Islands' which are vertical rock pillars rising straight out of the sea and very few people have landed there. The JCR made good progress slipping between the loose ice for the rest of the day until by late afternoon we arrived at the edge of the fast sea ice where we found our route blocked by a continuous ice sheet. The true ice breaking capabilities of the ship now swung into action and we merrily rammed our way into the ice.
The ship has many design features to allow ice breaking, some of which are very sophisticated but the actual technique is very simple - drive the ship with full power into the ice and watch what happens! I'm sure the Captain would like to tell you it is a highly skilled operation and I'm sure it is, but at the heart of it is a simple brutal style. To stand inside the bow of the ship as it hits the ice is an amazing experience. Initially everything is quiet and smooth as the hull cuts easily through the still open water building into a gentle rustling as it moves through the slush of previously broken ice. Suddenly the bow contacts the edge of the solid ice and the air is full of bangs, crashes, scratching, screaming, tearing, scraping and cracking. The floor shakes, moves and vibrates with each crack and the whole ship is rocked from side to side by the ice heeling system. The ship will veer suddenly when it bounces off areas of hard ice, and the solid blue ice is to be avoided! One can feel the power of the collision coming up through your feet as the hull rises up above the ice and uses it's weight to push down and crack the ice below. The hull is very thick but seems to transmit the sound effortlessly into a long cacophony of screeching that gently tapers to an end as the ship slows to a complete stop. A still silence returns as all forward motion is lost and the ship rests in the ice. For a video clip of ice breaking, click here. The ship will gently move astern several hundred meters down the narrow channel it has already cut before commencing another attack against the ice. Standing on deck is equally impressive. Huge slabs of ice crack down the side of the ship and turn over. The ice has snow on the top which is pure white but the ice is coloured by various algae and organisms that live there to pale yellow colour. It reminds me of Christmas cake icing with marzipan below. Large chunks of ice are spat out by the propeller behind the ship and bob in our wake. After several hours of ice breaking we stopped for the night still 7 miles from Signy station.
We were set to start ice breaking again the following morning but the weather intervened. During the night the barograph sank like a stone and finally dipped at 959 mmHg, the wind picked up and snow totally obliterated all visibility. Ice breaking in white-out conditions is not an option so we were forced to sit it out. The temperature reached -18°C (with wind chill -42°C -Ed). Venturing outside was cold but it was nice to play in the snow drifts on the aft deck and feel like a true Antarctic hero trapped in the ice etc etc...........The bow area was a mixture of frozen sea spray and snow drifts.

The view from the bridge windows never cleared all day so we didn't try to move except gently rocking from side to side in order to prevent us from becoming stuck. We were all very warm inside if a little frustrated!
The JCR "parked" in the ice

On Friday after John had cleared a safe path across the ice, the excited shore party were disembarked onto the ice by the 'Geordie'. The rope basket carries personnel down safely down onto the ice whilst we cling on. It was great to get off the ship and march the ¼ mile across the sea ice to the base.

All hands were needed to help unload the cargo that was towed by skidoo from the ship to the station. Last year the station was opened in slightly different conditions using the boats but this year conditions meant that everything had to be dragged across the ice by a pair of decidedly antique skidoos. Snow conditions on the ice were very soft and the sledges bogged down repeatedly. It was hard work for everyone ashore, digging out doorways and paths, moving boxes, starting generators, opening up communication equipment, dragging oil drums across the snow etc etc. The catering department sent out parcels of fish and chips wrapped in paper to restore the troops at lunch which went down particularly well. It was just like summer holidays at Whitley Bay for a moment or two! (Whitley Bay is colder and has more snow - Ed).
Above: Top left: the fish and chips went down very well at lunchtime. Top right: Skidoo loaded with foodboxes with JCR in the background. Bottom left: moving boxes with station buildings in the background. Bottom middle: even the Doc shifted some snow! Bottom right: everyone lends a hand to move a large crate.

About lunch time on Saturday, the base was running independently and the base commander, John Blunn, was happy that we could turn round and head for Stanley. The generators, reverse osmosis plant, alarms, heating and comms systems were all checked and running so we started cracking our way out towards open water and the bright lights of Stanley once more.
We have spent Sunday cruising through pack ice under cloudless blue skies, watching penguins diving off and climbing on passing floes. Next stop - Stanley.
The South Orkney Islands
The South Orkney Islands lie on the South side of the Scotia Sea and were first charted by Captain George Powell, in the British sealer Dove on 6th December 1821 during a sealing expedition in which he virtually exterminated the entire fur seal population! Originally called the 'Powell group' they were renamed the following year by Weddell. He called them the South Orkney Islands in contrast to the South Shetland Islands as they lie at a slightly lower latitude just as the Orkney Islands in Scotland, lie at a slightly lower latitude than the Shetland Islands. The islands are part of the British Antarctic Territory. The two main islands, Coronation Island and Laurie Island, are mountainous and generally covered in snow down to sea level. The islands are frequently enveloped in fog and mist, surrounded by grounded bergs and receive about 20 days of snow a month for most of the year. The Admiralty warns mariners that satellite imagery indicates that much of the coast line of the islands is 'different in shape to that charted' by up to 7 cables. Incorrect charts, strong currents, ice and below-water rocks explain why names such as 'Despair Rocks' and 'Inaccessible Islands' have been given. There is a Argentinian station, Orcadas, on Laurie Island. This was founded by Dr Bruce of the Scottish Antarctic Survey in 1903 but given to Argentina due to lack of funds in February 1904. The Argentine Government has maintained this station continuously ever since and it has the credit of being the longest continuously manned Antarctic station!
Signy island is 6.5 km long and less than 5 km wide.The name derives from Fru Signy, the wife of Kapt Peter Sorelle who surveyed the island in the steamer Paal in 1911 for a whaling company. It is separated from Coronation Island by the 1 mile wide Normanna Strait. The base has been occupied by BAS since 1947 when it was primarily a meteorological station. It was manned all year until 1995 when it was rebuilt and became a summer only station. The base is situated in 'Factory Cove' and this refers to the ruins of a whaling station that was built in 1920 by a Norwegian whaling company under British licence. Some of the original wooden decking is still used today.
We are privileged to have Doug Bone on the JCR for this cruise. Doug is currently working on the Moorings project (see last weeks science) but first worked with the British Antarctic Survey by over-wintering for two years at Signy as a marine assistant. He is a mine of information on the Antarctic and has kindly written a piece for the diary about his time at Signy and his return this year.
Signy revisited
"I first arrived at Signy Island early in December 1966 at the start of a stay lasting 2 years and 2 months. Now, late in October 2002 I am here again. Although I have visited Signy twice in the intervening time (1982 and 1994), this is my first visit since the base has been operating for the summer only. 1994 was the last season in which the base was occupied over winter and in the past few years all the buildings that were in use during my time �wintering� have been removed. One would expect that the whole place would seem strange and different, but this was not the case. The site which the Signy base has occupied for the past 50 years is very restricted and new buildings have been erected where old ones were removed. The way in which these buildings nestle into the landscape clearly does much to influence the character of the place."
"In spite of all the changes some artefacts from a much earlier occupation of the island do remain. In the 1920�s the present base site was occupied by shore facilities of the Norwegian whaling company Tønesbergs Hvalfangeri. Quite a bit of the original �plan� or flensing platform was still visible on this visit despite the deep snowdrifts. The remains of a water barge, used by the whalers, has been thrown up on the shore at the head of the cove. In 1966 this was lying on the seabed in front of the base and was a hazard to boats coming in to the jetty that being constructed at that time. By employing a bit of ingenuity and a lot of empty oil drums we were able to move this further up the cove. The sea has done the rest."
"My arrival and the subsequent �relief� of the base in 1966 also took place over sea ice; then, as now, it was very labour intensive, the only mechanical help being from the ships crane and two ancient skidoos. In 1966 we had many more tons of cargo to unload, but fortunately we also had a much larger workforce, and the snow surface was much better for travelling over."
"Well what has changed? I suspect that the greatest changes concern day-to-day life, and centre on water, food and communications. In the 1960�s and well on into the 70�s all our water came from �natural� sources, from something like November through to March melt water coming from the moss banks of the �Back Slope� provided a reasonably reliable supply that was apparently perfectly safe. We never boiled it and no one ever suffered any ill effects. From March/April onwards we should have been able to rely on snow blocks cut from drifts and put into the �melt tank�, heated by the generator exhausts. Frequently however this was a very difficult time for our water supply and we were forced to rely on gathering glacier ice (which is freshwater) that drifted into the bay from disintegrating icebergs. On more than one occasion we were forced to take a boat out and lasso pieces of floating ice and tow them in to the beach. This activity had a socially cohesive effect because everyone knew that around 4 pm they would be called upon to form a chain to pass the blocks of ice up from the beach to the melt tank. Everyone was aware of the work and difficulty involved in maintaining the water supply so very little was wasted and consumption generally kept down to a minimum."
"Now, the freshwater supply is derived from seawater, which has had the salt squeezed out in a box called a Reverse Osmosis plant and is readily available."
"In the 1960�s the majority of the food supplied was either canned or dried. Signy, like most of the British bases did not have a climate that could be relied upon to keep food safely frozen and we did not have much deep freeze capacity. Signy was in fact better off than most bases in this respect, some deep freeze capacity was required for the biological research being carried out at the time. Some of this could always (officially or otherwise!) be hived off to store fresh meat. Thus the base members commissioned one of the supply ships to purchase meat (normally fillet steak) on their behalf in Montevideo (Uruguay) where they always called on the way South. This together with sundry other supplies allowed us to have fresh meat twice a week. But as to fresh vegetables and fruit: virtually unheard of! Limited to small quantities bartered from the Chief Stewards of the supply ships. So I was interested to see the large quantity of frozen goods and fresh produce that were carried ashore at Signy on Saturday."
"The biggest change of all concerns communications. In the 60�s the only �in-depth communication�, was by �snail mail�, and it really was snail! Virtually all the mail went through the Falkland Islands and at that time there was no air link at all to the Islands. Both them and us received their mail via the monthly supply ship Darwin which plied between Port Stanley and Montevideo; augmented by occasional visits there by the BAS ships. Official radio communication was all by Morse Code, between the bases and a BAS radio station in the Falklands. This was largely sent and received by hand, �high tech� was a �Creed machine� and two speed tape recorder. The messages were typed on the Creed machine that produced punched paper tape that was fed through a �key� that operated at a higher speed than was possible by hand. Incoming messages were recorded on a tape recorder at high speed then played back at low speed and written down by the radio operator. Throughout the year we were allowed a Personal Message Facility of 200 words per month in from our families back home and 100 per month out! You can imagine how much we looked forward to the arrival of a ship carrying mail!"
"Now, there are several forms of satellite communication, including email and telephone. So Yes, the base now is more up to date, has more modern facilities and the occupants will not need to spend as much of their time simply keeping things running, but in terms of comfort we were not that badly off back in 1966. The occupants of the 1947 base would have had a far tougher time. Some would probably say that the privations that we �suffered� were �character forming�, that is for others to judge. However we really did learn what was important to us and that lots of material goods are not necessary for enjoyment or contentment."

Horse Racing
With the relief of Signy finished by Saturday afternoon we were all in need of some relaxation. Geordie and Nick laid on a 'race night' in the Officers bar. Everyone bought a horse (or donkey! - Ed) and had to jockey it along the course with moves decided by the roll of dice. The winning horse of each race received prizes. The Bank of JCR provided money for a wager and 'Honest Geordie' calculated the odds. The images below show specimens of Bank of JCR money. Click the images for a larger version.
Needless to say there were some winners and losers but everyone had a good time and things got very exciting!
Some horses were very poor and some literally fell to bits! The image below left captures some of the "close racing" action and on the right, Carli's veterinary skills are tested to the limit. Click the images to enlarge them.
Needless to say my horse, Hippocratic Oats, drowned at the water jump and was never seen again. The last race consisted of all the winners from the previous six races. In a frenzy of excitement (comparable to Aintree on Grand National day) the Champions race galloped off (or hobbled - Ed).........
The Line up
- Flippers Bitch - 16/1
- The Lovely Joanna - 4/1
- Islander - 2/1
- Taggart - 5/1
- Cuddy - 9/1
- Dogs Kahuna - 8/1
With a late run on the blind side, the dark horse Cuddy, romped over the line to record a great win for proud owner and trainer, Hamish. Despite several official and non-official inquiries, doping scandals and stable whispers, Hamish had won the Championship and his prize was the choice of any bottle out of the ships bond!
The winners were all chuffed and most of the gathered crowds tasted the sweet smell of success at some stage. We were left to count our winnings or ponder what might have been!

Thank-yous this week: Geordie and Nick for organizing a great night and also to Doug for his historical insight.
Coming up next week: Stanley and the start of a new cruise

Around 220 jobs will be cut at the group's contact center and security operations in Calgary, Alberta. Another 30 jobs will be lost in Britain when Neteller operations move from Gatwick to Cambridge in March.
Neteller said in a statement the job losses were the result of a "reorganization and restructuring of its operations."
The company's services were used extensively for payments made to online gambling sites before a change in U.S. law last year made that type of transaction illegal.
Since then there has been a mass withdrawal of online gambling companies from the U.S., prompting Neteller to follow suit.
A Neteller spokesman said the job losses are a direct result of the recent changes in U.S. online gambling laws.
Since Neteller stopped processing payments for U.S. residents, transfer volume and customer enquiries have "decreased substantially."
"The company is looking to expand in Europe and in Asia in particular," a Neteller said of plans to grow the business following the withdrawal from the U.S.
The group will continue with its current business and has "plenty of product areas (it) can expand into," he added.
Tim Ferguson of Silicon.com reported from London.

Frist thought that he was going to be president (yeah, right) and pushed this lousy piece of legislation (and if it wasn't so lousy, why was it tacked onto a port security bill) to pander to 'the base'. Then he finally figured out that he is unelectable and retired from politics after pushing and passing this crap.

- I'm still not sure how the United States can play "World Police." Is it illegal for us to establish foreign bank accounts? Oh, only if its for "gambling". Yeah, funny how that law excludes betting on horse racing. We even have a cable channel that runs races 24 hours a day. The only reason the U.S. did this is because 1) they want a cut in taxes and 2) they want to protect domestic interests (read: Caesars, etc.) who will no doubt, open their own online gambling sites and poker rooms shortly and court people to physical casinos...

- Neteller probably should have planned better for this. However, the FBI has seized over $55 million in cash and according to them most of the people won't get paid. Be happy it's only $40. Some people have thousands tied up. The US is causing most of the problems attacking licensed operations in other countries. This company has operated for years without problems up until this witch hunt by the US DA office.

- I work at a credit union, and one of our members had Neteller pulling out of his account over and over again. He had no idea what was going on. When I called their toll free number to try to find out why this was happening, they said they would look into it, but they also kept saying something about how their operations were being shut down on that very day. It all sounded very weird and suspicious so I don't really view them as the type of company with legitimate business practices. They probably should be officially shut down. This all happened about a month ago.

Cracking down on the entire industry just makes criminal enterprises easier to operate and gives them the monopoly.

- I have no objection to taxes that only target the stupid, but why should we allow con men do as they wish. If we let online gambling sites operate, should we also let the "Nigerian billionaires" rip off the 98 year old AOL users as well?

- As someone who has actually played poker online . . .
- I can tell you that it is not a rip-off. I played off and on for four years and I lost and won several thousand dollars over that time. At no time did I feel cheated by the gambling site or any of the money processors. The availability, knowledge, and politeness of their customer service puts any other industry to shame.
The only time I feel ripped off is when I go to a brick and mortar casino and pay their exorbitant fees.
The bottom line is that this law was a gift from Bill Frist to his friends on the religious right. It was attached at the very last hour to a bill that had to be passed (Port Security) at a time that was too late for the bill to be read or further amended. Most congressmen knew the law had been added to an unrelated bill, but there was nothing they could do about it.
I suggest you do a little more reading on the subject before spewing more inanity. I hate to be rude, but it is frustrating that the truth has been so effectively hidden.

- wrong
- How about phrasing it this way: "should we let people take personal responsibility for their own actions of lack thereof?"
I have no need for the Govt. telling me what games my kids can play, what programs I can watch, what profanity enters my ears, which drugs/alcohol I can use, whether I can beleive in jesus or the flying spaghetti monster. Controlling these things is not nor has ever been the role of government. its sheep like some of the posters here who so readily give things up feeling that the Govt. ALWAYS has their best interests in mind.
Give people credit for knowing what they're doing. The online gambling industry did not have a gun to anyones head, people knew what they got into and enjoyed it, including myself. Whats next, porn? How about dissenting voices in how things are run in the US? How about controversial medical treatment that may save the life of your family member? Do you want the government making those kinds of decisions as well? Guess what, they already are.

- So what -- this was never a legitimate business
- This whole business was built on exploiting a loophole created when the U.S. passed a bill making it illegal for banks and credit card firms to process payments to internet gambling groups. Everybody should have known this wouldn't last forever.

- Casinos only legit when Goverment can dip their hands into it
- It is a very hipocritical attitude of the USA. Land Casinos and River
casinos, JUST AS BAD, remain legal ... why? Because government
can make a profit on them.
Online casinos are considered competition to traditional
government sponsored casinos. It is like saying, "it is ok to kill as
long as you use US built firearms"
It is a dirty world at ALL levels.

- give me a break
- As far as i can see it a lot of American people want to gamble online so why does their government want them not to? all i can see is another sad episode of the American govenment flexing it's will on the rest of the world as this does not only affect America it affects the world. We fought to get rid of dictatorships in two world wars so why should the world submit to another.
my last point is what happened to the almighty constitution that the government is by the people and for the people, does not seem that way to me. US Government sucks.

Honeycomb Series #2
The Honeycomb Wall, 1992-4, was comprised of 100 wood panels each 11 1/2" in diameter. The panels contained found objects related to honey bees, the geometry of hexagons and the chemistry of honey as well as printed images produced from linoleum blocks and scanned and layered computer-generated images output as cibachrome photographs. In 1999, I translated the digital images from The Honeycomb Wall into a suite of five prints called the Honeycomb Series. These large ink jet prints were printed with permanent inks on Arches cold press paper using a Roland printer. Each one captures a distinct configuration created by the architecture of the wall.

antibiotics metronidazole (such as Flagyl and MetroGel),
clindamycin (such as Cleocin and Clindesse), and tinidazole (such as Tindamax) are used to
bacterial vaginosis. Depending on the antibiotic you
are prescribed, you may take it by mouth or use it vaginally.
During pregnancy, women who are high-risk for preterm labor are advised
to avoid vaginal application of any treatment. Some doctors recommend that all
pregnant women avoid vaginal treatments.
Medicines inserted into the
vagina cause fewer side effects than oral medicines, although they can make you
vulnerable to
vaginal yeast infection.
When considering
treatment for bacterial vaginosis, ask your doctor whether you should:
The oil in clindamycin cream and ovules can weaken latex. This means condoms and diaphragms may break, and you may not be protected from STIs or pregnancy.

In the few short years since I retired from public life, the Liberals have taken Miranda and the Shire for granted. They have just assumed that they can do what they like and the Shire will vote for them.
We have seen the closure of the world-class Cronulla Fisheries, the cuts to Miranda Fire Station services, an increase in beach pollution and the loss of teachers from Gymea TAFE.
It is quite clear that the people of Miranda have been let down by the Liberals and have not been getting the representation they deserve.
Mr Graham Annesley, the Liberal you elected as your State representative in 2011, just up and resigned to take up a more lucrative job in Queensland – simply because he didn't like working as a MP.
Furthermore, we see the Liberal-controlled Council ignoring the concerns of Miranda and Shire residents. With this Council forcing through widespread re-zonings and doubling local building heights, overdevelopment is rearing its ugly head once again.
Overdevelopment will destroy our quality of life in the Shire for our children and grandchildren.
The O'Farrell Government's new planning laws give residents little say – tipping the balance in favour of the big developers.
Residents cannot complain because Sutherland Shire Council has sacked the independent Shire Ombudsman.
With all of this happening on the Liberals' watch, I just can't sit back and see the great quality of life we enjoy here in the Shire being destroyed.
That's why I'm putting up my hand again. We need a strong, experienced voice with a proven track record in State Parliament to speak up for the residents of Miranda and the Shire.
That's why I'm standing up for the Shire.
We need also to send a message to the Liberal Government. To do that, I need your vote on Saturday, 19 October.
Barry Collier
Member for Miranda

Our congratulations go out to Science Hill High School's Topper Orchestra on being one of 10 orchestras asked to be a part of the American String Teachers Association's National Orchestra Festival. The Topper Orchestra was selected from more than 100 high school orchestras across the country to participate in the event, which will be held in Atlanta March 21-24.
It's quite an honor, and one that these talented musicians from Science Hill richly deserve. We also want to commend the music teachers and administrative staff at Science Hill, as well as the parents of those associated with the Topper Orchestra, for their dedication.
Lastly, we should give a commendation to the city's Board of Education for seeing that students in Johnson City still have access to an education in music. Far too many students across this country are not so lucky.
Music and art programs are often seen as a luxury that school systems can no longer afford. These programs have been cut from the curriculum of many school districts in recent years. Even in our region, art and music are the first programs placed on the chopping block during budget cuts.
Students who are involved in music and fine art programs do better in their other studies and extra-curricular activities than students who aren't. Music is a lifelong passion that will serve these students long after they graduate.

The TAT Preparation Thread-the logistical side of it
View Single Post
Serial Tinkerer
Joined: Dec 2008
Location: East Midlands, UK
Oddometer: 414
I'm heading out there late April, planning on doing the full length plus some other stuff (I'm in the US for 12 weeks).
I decided against turning the rollcharts into tracks, for two reasons:
- I've got a 60CSX, and there's no way the whole thing would fit, and I'm not taking a PC, only an android tablet, so can't run Garmin software to switch routes in and out of the internal memory.
- It would have taken an enormously long time.
What I have done is type all the waypoint coordinates in (which still took ages - maybe a couple of weeks at a couple of hours a night), and I'll have these in the GPS as Points of Interest, labelled with state and mileage. I'll be primarily navigating off the rollchart, but I've then got a double check that I'm at the junction I think I'm at.
I'll have the track logging on and some sort of map in there (do be decided, what's people's opinions of OSM in the states?) which will take care of any backtracking, etc.
Time will tell whether this works or I get horribly lost

Studio Audience: Big magazine redesign chat plus Nokia and Assange
So here we go again with the beats, if by beats you mean 23 minutes of art and design discussion in a podcast format. You did? Great! Set yourself up for the weekend and treat both brain cells and ear drums simultaneously. WARNING: Contains some hardcore graphic design chat. Please proceed with caution.
You can subscribe via iTunes here or listen via the SoundCloud link above.
Section One
First up this week we looked at Microsoft's four billion pound take over of Nokia's mobile phone division and pondered if this means they can now compete with Apple, we also talked about Julian Assange's appointment onto the Raindance Film Festival jury and welcomed the new Volvo tricks ads (below).
Section Two
This week the entire second section was spent discussing magazine redesigns, based on the new looks for Art Review and Wallpaper* rolled out in their most recent issues.
