Beefeater takes on 'Hungry Games' celebrity
Posted: August 13, 2014|
BEEF fans in Burton could be in with a chance of meeting celebrity quiz show host Vernon Kaye.
In celebration of Beefeater's 40th year, television favourite Vernon Kay has launched the latest summer campaign from Beefeater – 'The Hungry Games'.
Launching in Burton, 'The Hungry Games' is a quiz pack that will test the wits, brain and knowledge of the whole family. The top families from the first heat will then take part in a grand-final – a live game show hosted by Kay.
Winning prizes along the way, the final family will receive a 5 star caravan holiday worth up to £5,000.
Families who would like the chance to participate in the live final can enter in the Merry Monk Beefeater restaurant by completing the activity packs on site and placing their entries in the ballot box.
Sarah Tinsley, of Beefeater, said: "We've got some amazing quiz packs on site and it's the ideal way to spend time with the family, play some games and have good quality fun.
"Plus, the game show means you get the chance to go home with great prizes – a wonderful way to spend the summer."

Tall guys
Lean men who are 6'1" or over should go for swim shorts that land right above the knee. Shorter shorts will make your legs look too long, so these board shorts will help keep things in proportion, drawing attention away from your height.
Try: Tommy Bahama 'The Baja' Check Swim Trunks, $98
Short guys
Mid-thigh is the ideal length for guys who stand at 5'8" and under. The shorter inseam makes your legs look longer. Opting for a boxy-fit pair with a fun pattern will also add to the illusion of height.
Try: Original Penguin Gradient Jungle Box Swim, $79
Athletic guys
Now's the time to show off that bod, so don't be afraid of a fit that's shorter and tighter. A more revealing fit requires a healthy dose of confidence, but how else are you going to show proof of all those hours logged in at the gym?
Try: Mr. Turk Kent Swim Trunk, $228
Average guys
Guys who fall somewhere in between buff and "more to love" should look for a pair of shorts that feature a narrower cut and a shorter leg. A wide, adjustable waistline is ideal for hiding any hint of love handles.
Try: Mollusk Pennant Cotton-Blend Swim Shorts, $66
Stocky guys
Just because your abs aren't beach-ready doesn't mean you should avoid some fun in the sun. If your legs are in good shape, go for a boxy, mid-thigh fit. You can also choose something slightly longer for more coverup. Either way, avoid anything too bright and loud.
Try: Saturdays Surf Logan Board Short, $75
Thin guys
Shorter shorts (think around a 6-in. inseam) are the way to go here; otherwise you'll look like you're swimming (pun intended) in a pair of oversized trunks. Also, a bold or busy print will work in your favor by creating an illusion of bulk—in a good way.
Try: J.Crew 6" Swim Trunk in Hibiscus Floral, $75

Politicians too often dismiss this issue as "emotional," simply because the American public deeply cares; this seems contrary to democratic principles.
Special interest groups do not hold a monopoly over sound public policy. The American public has enough common sense to see that scientific data, ethics and fiscal responsibility all fall squarely on the side of America's wild horses.
Wild horse advocacy is considered one of the most efficient grassroots movements in the nation. This was confirmed in 2006 by several Members of Congress polled by the Institute for a Democratic Future, who called AWHPC to congratulate wild horse advocates on their grassroots efforts. We thank our coalition partners, who endorse our mission and join us in advancing our goals on behalf of America's wild horses and burros.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 12/2/12
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- For Chiefs linebacker Derrick Johnson, the nightmare came when he woke up Sunday morning and realized it had not been a bad dream, that one of his best friends, Jovan Belcher, was dead. "It was an emotional drive to the stadium," Johnson said. For Brady Quinn the realization of what had happened came when he walked into the Chiefs' locker room before the game against the Carolina Panthers and saw Belcher's uniform, pads, helmet and spikes sitting in his locker, waiting for him to come in and start getting dressed for the game. "I kind of lost it there for a couple moments," the Chiefs quarterback said. For Chiefs head coach Romeo Crennel, the realization of what had happened just 24 hours before was burned in his memory as he witnessed the moment when Belcher took his life with the same handgun that he'd used minutes before to shoot and kill his girlfriend. "You have to rely on each other, rely on your family and friends and rely on your faith -- that'...

Intern Interview
I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks – interviewed at Scottrade (Los Angeles, CA).
Applied for the position online through my University's job board in Early November 2008. I got an email from their HR coordinator 2 weeks later and had a short phone interview with her the next day in which she setup an interview with the Branch manager I would be working for, scheduled for the following week.
The interview was scheduled pretty early in the morning before any clients came in. I spent probably 20 minutes talking to the Manager about my background, previous work experience, and college degree. I was pursuing a degree in Economics, and they preferred to consider people with degrees in Finance, economics, and business. After the interview, he had me sit at one of the computers and take a personality test asking questions about how I would respond to certain situations. It was pretty obvious which answers they were looking for, so don't stress out too much about the personality test.
I got a call a week later from HR the next day wanting me to submit my references to them online, in which each reference will be sent an email asking to fill out a short survey about you. A week later HR called again saying the branch manager would like to offer me a position, which I gladly accepted. I needed to go and have my fingerprints taken and bring back to the branch office to be submitted to their HR department which is located in St. Louis. After that cleared they setup my start date. I started a week later just before Christmas.
Interview Questions
- As an intern you will be required to interact with the clients first before anyone else, and the job requires a lot of explanation about how the account setup and website management works to clients. During the interview, the branch manager asked me to explain step by step how to navigate to clear the cash and cookie on internet explorer. Answer Question
No negotiation for internship positions. When I worked there they started interns at $11 per hour, with 5% raises every 6 months.
Other Interview Reviews for Scottrade
Intern InterviewAccepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Scottrade.
First contacted by a HR rep within a day of applying online. She e-mailed me the next day asking to schedule a 30-45 minute phone interview. I talked to her for only 15 minutes though. She briefly went over the position requirements and hourly wage ($11/hr) then went into the behavioral questions. I wasn't expecting this because it was only the initial interview, but I was able to generate good answers. At the end, she told me we were going to move forward with the process based on my responses to her questions. She asked my availability for an in-person interview the next week with the branch manager. She didn't respond for a few days so I eventually contacted her asking about the interview, considering one of the days I said I was available had already passed. She then set up the interview the day after I contacted her.

Intern InterviewAccepted OfferNeutral ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks – interviewed at Scottrade (Saint Louis, MO) in March 2013.
Initial emails to establish basic information, then very quick phone interview (less than 10 minutes). About 2 weeks before call for interviews. Meet with very cheery recruiting staff for about 1 hour, then another hour with department manager, possible quick (less than 10 minutes) interviews with other senior members of department are possible. Then testing, possible customer service role-play, and final debriefing with recruiter. If hired, there is a 2-day/16 hour on-boarding experience that is standardized for all employees. HR/On-boarding/Recruitment tend to be happy and helpful people but actual departments do not exhibit the same enthusiasm.
Interview Questions
- Do you feel you are motivated more by your successes or your failures? Answer Question
Almost no negotiation. Offered a much lower hourly rate than my previous position. Had to negotiate strongly and even float possibility of not accepting the internship just to be even with previous position's low rate.

Had only two interviews, one over the phone and another in person with the branch manager. They do want to speak with a professional reference and it is a requirement.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Scottrade.
Submit resume online; wait and hope they call you for a phone interview. If you sound interested in the stock market and intelligent, you will get an interview with the branch manager. He/she will sit you down in the branch for about an hour, ask typical interview questions, and if you're the best of the 3 interviewed (yes, only 3 will be interviewed), you get the job.

I applied online – interviewed at Scottrade in January 2013.
The process first starts with a phone interview and then you get an interview with the branch manager. The phone interview was a little more intense but once you go in the office the interview questions aren't bad. They are most like ''name me a time when...'' ''what would you do if...''

Daniel Powter would like to thank "American Idol" for using his single "Bad Day" as the soundtrack to their eliminated-contestant montages each week, surely bolstering its current three-week reign as the #1 song in the country.
Someday he might even return the favor and watch it.
"I grew up doing these things called the Kiwanis Music Festival, and I used to go up there and get adjudicated by playing violin and I'd get booed off the stage by these judges," Powter said. "So there's a little bit of irony in that. And I don't watch it. I think it would kind of break my heart to watch these kids. I'm one of these wimpy, sensitive guys.
"I mean, no I'm not," he laughed. "F—in' get rid of them. Get them off the stage! They suck!"
Wimpy or not, Powter is arguably one of the hottest singers in the world at the moment. "Bad Day" has been a smash for more than a year overseas, where he's already on his second or third single (depending on the market). And last week in his home country, he won Best New Artist at Canada's version of the Grammys, the Junos.
"They just did a ['Bad Day'] parody on 'Saturday Night Live,' " Vancouver-born Powter said last week. "That's when you know you've actually arrived."
All the more interesting is that Powter never expected any sort of success, which is part of the reason he believes he's receiving it.
"I got signed more or less after we made the record, so I think if I had that in the beginning, I probably would've sang about my rims," explained the singer, whose piano pop and falsetto voice have earned him comparisons to Elton John. "Instead it was the exact opposite. I'm singing about Styrofoam in certain songs. … I'm singing about stuff that you probably wouldn't put on a record if you thought you were supposed to go out and sell a lot of them. It's kind of been a blessing in a way, though, because it's me."
Powter, who recorded the album with producers Jeff Dawson and Mitchell Froom (Elvis Costello, Sheryl Crow), wrote "Bad Day" after the melody came in his head and remained there for two weeks.
"It was driving me nuts, so I laid it down," he recalled. "I was looking for a lyric — and I thought it probably would've been the cheesiest song of all time if I'd written it really up and poppy — so I decided to make it have more of a negative connotation to it. So it's sort of like a conflict. You've got a melody going one way, which is very up, and the lyric is supposed to be a little bit more of making fun of you, sort of like a tease. The whole record's kind of like that. It's that combination of a darker element with a melody."
The lyrics loosely refer to Powter's days as a struggling musician, making $20 last a week, although there's no one bad day that inspired him.

"I think everybody knows what it's like to be thrown in the f—ing garbage can," he said. "But mostly it's about phonics. It's about words that sing great, and bad day was one of those. I was mumbling something, and those words came out right in that part."
With "Bad Day" on wax, Powter was able to score a record deal, and through use of the song in a Coca-Cola commercial overseas, he quickly found an audience. In France, he broke a 20-year-old chart record.
With that momentum, he turned his focus to America, which in many ways was the inspiration for the album.
"I grew up with American music," he said. "And when I wrote the record, I was so inspired by this music that that's the stuff that came out of me. This is stuff that was on my radio every day."
Powter had no idea his label had licensed "Bad Day" to "Idol" but happily says, "I'll take it, man."
If he has any fears of one-hit-wonderdom with the song and its "Idol" connection, Powter hides them well. "I'm gonna get past that," he said. "I got past this song in other countries already."
And Powter's already being proactive on turning the success of the song into a career. When his label pushed him to do a radio promotion tour, he agreed only if he could play small clubs in each city on those nights.
"It was one of those things that I will never forget," Powter said. "It's more important than Billboard magazine, I will tell you that much. I got to meet people and play music for 300 people who would show up to these intimate little gigs. And they would ask me questions, and I would ask them questions, and it was beautiful. That will be forevermore the most inspiring tour I ever did."Get your "Idol" fix on MTV News' "American Idol" page, where you'll find all the latest news, interviews and opinions.

Marc Wilmots' side need only a point against South Korea to top Group H and Origi, a late inclusion in the squad after Christian Benteke was injured, could get a longer run-out than the 33 minutes he enjoyed after replacing Romelu Lukaku and scoring an 88th-minute winner against Russia.
"I was able to come on to the pitch at the Maracana when the tension was at its peak and make the difference," he said. "I'm sure I'll continue to grow and improve thanks to that calmness and score more goals just as important."
South Korea's 4-2 defeat to Algeria left them struggling to stay in the tournament and their coach, Hong Myung-bo, criticised his defenders before imploring his players to start afresh. "We have to turn the page. We must prepare better for the next game, it's our only option," he said.

AMES, Iowa — Republican presidential hopeful Tim Pawlenty isn't holding back on his criticism of President Barack Obama.
The former Minnesota governor describes Obama as being "like a manure spreader in a windstorm." That phrasing drew loud cheers from a crowd of GOP activists Saturday at the Iowa straw poll in Ames, Iowa.
Pawlenty says Republican candidates have to show that they can back up their words with actions. He says his record as governor speaks for itself, and he notes that he served in a strongly Democratic state.
He says that's evidence that he can take conservative policies nationwide.

The Mall is impressive year round and at any time of day. It is particularly beautiful when illuminated at night, and in early spring when thousands of Japanese cherry trees burst into bloom around the Tidal Basin. Presented as a gift in 1912 from Japan, more than 3,700 cherry trees explode into a sea of pale pink and white, heralding the arrival of spring in our nation's capital.

To the surprise of many visitors the seat of American government is also a beautiful city, a celebration in marble and stone of the ideals on which democracy was founded.
Though laid out roughly according to the original 1791 plan by French military engineer Pierre-Charles L'Enfant, Washington D.C. has changed considerably over the years. At its heart is the National Mall -- a majestic two-mile greensward running west from the Capitol Building to the Lincoln Memorial, lined with some of the nation's most important monuments and civic and cultural institutions -- an awe-inspiring centerpiece for sure, but one that did not assume its current form until the early 20th century.
The focal point and unmistakeble icon of the National Mall is the Washington Monument; the Mall's first presidential memorial, it was completed in 1884. Thrusting skyward 555 feet, it offers visitors a spectacular 360-degree view from its peak.
To the west, the neoclassical Lincoln Memorial is probably the most emotional of the Mall's presidential memorials. Built to resemble a Greek temple, it has 36 Doric columns representing the 36 states in the union at the time of Lincoln's death. Inside, Daniel Chester French's massive 19-foot seated sculpture of our nation's 16th president gazes out, the powerful words of his Gettysburg Address etched behind him, below a mural depicting the unity of North and South. For the most profound experience, visit at night, after the crowds have thinned out.
South of the Washington Monument on the banks of the Tidal Basin, the Thomas Jefferson Memorial was designed in 1936 by John Russell Pope and modeled on the Pantheon in Rome. Inside, a 19-foot bronze statue of the third president stands surrounded by passages from the Declaration of Independence that he helped pen.

"Safari day 3" Top 5 Page for this destination Rhodes Matopos National Park by Rusket
Rhodes Matopos National Park Travel Guide: 29 reviews and 86 photos
Following independence in 1980, a lot of names in Zimbabwe were changed. Thus the name of the area is now Matobo. This sign bears the old name of the park, Rhodes Matopos National Park. The park was named after Cecil Rhodes, who is buried here. The park also goes by the name Matobo National Park.
Today's "catch": Two crocodiles, 6 rhinoes, 4 hippoes, zebras and impalas. We got quite close to the mother and child rhino you see in the picture: What you see to the left, is my son's knee, he was sitting on the hood of the jeep :-)
Due to high water table there is more and greener vegetation here than in the other parts of Zimbabwe we visited.

I LOVED Zimbabwe it is such a magical place. You were SO lucky in Matopos, we never saw that many animals - the Rhino are gorgeous though! Well worth the trip.....Hugs....Ali x
Looks like a cool adventure!
WOW again!!! I also find hippos soo cute, didn't know there were that dangerous... My son has s hippo bath sponge, should we be careful, or they are friendly when in water :)
I would love to go game watching one day - your page is very inspiring. The animal pictures are wonderful :-) And I would do exactly like your son - sleeping on the truck roof and see millions of stars :-)

We have a Taveras, whether we wanted it or not, now what?
It appears the Reds have this off-season:
1. Addressed the pen
2. At least treaded water at Catcher, although I think they will be improved there
3. Added the CF/lead-off hitter they apparently thought they needed
How to maximize their chances of being competitive given the market and what Jocketty is professing to want this team to be?
A few thoughts:
1. Taveras' whole game is speed. Nothing else. Just speed. Unfortunately, the Reds have brought a guy who can't slug to a park that requires slugging. What to do? This was touched on in the Taveras thread by mth, I believe, but worth a longer look. Given that bloop hits will be fewer for Taveras in the much tighter GABP dimensions as opposed to Coors dimensions, in order to maximize what he does, I think they need to figure out what to do about the infield. In the olden days of yore, when Astroturf roamed the land, guys like Tavares would carve out extra hits with so-called "baltimore chops" and grounders that would find holes in the infield as nothing slowed them down. Should the Reds look into shaving the grass real low on the infield? Maybe not water it is as much? Would doing that help to maximize what Tavares does?
2. If the Reds WERE to do that, they would need markedly better defense at SS than they currently have. Unless Alex G really can come back and be what he was, the Tavares signing puts a permium on them acquiring a SS who can pick it and hit it. Time to re-knock on the Braves' door re: Escobar?
3. If this is to be a "pitching and defense" team, then they need more pitching too. Spend the money on a Sheets, say. Take a chance at putting another hoss into the rotation.
4. At some point the LF hole will be filled. Let's hope that is at least an .825 OPS type bat. And he better be able to field, even though it is not a defensive position, since this team will be living on defense.
If they make those kinds of changes, it would help, I think. If they are really going to embrace the Tavares, there have to be moves that accompany it that make sense.
A lot of the frustration that many of us have with the organzation is that it is hard to discern a plan, and if there is one, understanding the approach to putting the plan into place.
It would appear Walt thinks he has addressd up-the-middle issues with Ramon H and Willy T. If so, he needs to finish that off and deal with the gaping hole at SS. And he needs to do what he can to make GABP a little more friendly to a team with less of a pure SLG approach. That would be my hope for the remainder of the off-season. Maximize the return on Tavares, whatever that may be, configure the team to truly be "pitching and defense" if that is the approach, and give it a shot. What I don't want is them to go halfway on the approach. Commit to it and make it work, if that's the plan. Show a greater organizational commitment to it. And let the fans know for certain that is the approach.

Batum's 3-pointer lifts Blazers over Cavs in 2OTs
Batum scored to give Portland a brief lead in the second OT, but Gee's 3-pointer put Cleveland ahead 114-113. Lillard followed with a basket for the Trail Blazers, but Tyler Zeller's jumper with 52.3 seconds left put the Cavaliers ahead again.
Following turnovers by both teams, the Trail Blazers missed on two attempts and Gee was fouled. He missed the first shot and made the second.
Cavaliers guard Dion Waiters left the game in the second overtime with an ankle injury. Varejao, the NBA's leading rebounder, dislocated his right ring finger in the first quarter. X-rays were negative and he returned midway through the second period.
Gee's basket off a missed shot tied the game at 103 with 6.7 seconds left in the first overtime. After Lillard missed a 20-footer, the ball was tapped out near the top of the key. Batum put up a shot that went in and was originally ruled good and the Trail Blazers began celebrating. However, replay showed the ball was still in Batum's hand when time expired.
With the Blazers down two late in regulation, Lillard missed, but Aldridge grabbed the rebound and was fouled by Varejao on his put-back attempt. Tristan Thompson was called for goaltending on the shot, a ruling that was upheld by a video review. Aldridge missed the free throw and the game remained tied at 91 with 36.8 seconds remaining.
The Cavaliers were called for a shot clock violation on their next possession. Portland called timeout with 12.8 seconds remaining. Lillard drove to the basket, but his shot hit off the glass. Aldridge's tip-in came after the buzzer and the game went to overtime.
NOTES: Batum left the game in the first quarter after being hit in the face, but returned in the second period. ... The Trail Blazers finish their trip against Charlotte and Indiana ... The Cavaliers haven't won two in a row since March of last season. ... Cleveland plays at Detroit on Monday.

Now I understand it a little better (thanks to Joel and Mark) And herein lies the issue where I tend to agree with Andrew on -- its really nice to have multiple filesystems innovating freely in their niches and eventually proving themselves in practice, without being bogged down by legacy etc. But at the same time, is there enough thought and discussion about where the fragmentation/diversification is really warranted, vs improving what is already there, or say incorporating the best of one into another, maybe over a period of time ? The number of filesystems seems to just keep growing, and supporting all of them isn't easy -- for users it isn't really easy to switch from one to another, and the justifications for choosing between them is sometimes confusing and burdensome from an administrator standpoint - one filesystem is good in certain conditions, another in others, stability levels may vary etc, and its not always possible to predict which aspect to prioritize. Now, with filesystems that have been around in production for a long time, the on-disk format becomes a major constraining factor, and the reason for having various legacy support around. Likewise, for some special purpose filesystems there really is a niche usage. But for new and sufficiently general purpose filesystems, with new on-disk structure, isn't it worth thinking this through and trying to get it right ? Yeah, it is a lot of work upfront ... but with double the people working on something, it just might get much better than what they individually can. Sometimes. BTW, I don't know if it is worth it in this particular case, but just something that worries me in general. > GFS seems to reinvent a lot more things and has somewhat uglier code. > On the other hand GFS' cluster support seems to be more aimed > at being a universal cluster service open for other usages too, > which might be a good thing. OCFS2s cluster seems to be more > aimed at only serving the file system. > > But which one works better in practice is really an open question. True, but what usually ends up happening is that this question can never quite be answered in black and white. So both just continue to exist and apps need to support both ... convergence becomes impossible and long term duplication inevitable. So at least having a clear demarcation/guideline of what situations each is suitable for upfront would be a good thing. That might also get some cross ocfs-gfs and ocfs-ext3 reviews in the process :) Regards Suparna -- Suparna Bhattacharya (suparna in ibm com) Linux Technology Center IBM Software Lab, India

June 1, 2013 - (London, ON) – Matt Pritiko and his Global Warranty / Toyota-Town Toyota Camry unloaded their FT Garage Late Model at Delaware Speedway on Friday May 17th for opening night as the team prepares to chase a championship in 2013.
After turning the second fastest lap in the night's practice session, Pritiko drew the pole position for his 10-lap heat race and when the green flag dropped he was able to blast away from the rest of the field. Pritiko opened up a small gap on Jay Doerr and picked up some bonus championship points with his first heat race win of the season by almost ½ a second. Matt explained, "We were only able to get one once to test and get ready for the season. The car was good, but not as fast as it had been last season. We'll see how good it is in the feature."
The 40-lap feature closed out the evening and Pritiko rolled off from the inside of the fourth row. In just three laps he was able to move into the top-five, running fourth, and trailing Cole Powell, Mat Box, and Jamie Cox. On lap six Box was shuffled out of the groove and both Cox and Pritiko went by, moving Matt to third, and six laps later Cox took the lead, putting Powell in the clutches of Pritiko. Matt measured Powell for a number of laps and on a lap 22 restart he was able to catch Powell on the high side to claim second. He then started to attack Cox, and with seven laps left was able to make a move on the low side of Jamie. As he applied the power the car snapped around and Pritiko spun to the inside. "I had a run on the bottom and I the car snapped around. It was a racing deal, and two guys racing for the win in the same real estate."
Pritiko restarted 10th, and climbed to seventh before being involved in a tangle with another competitor, forcing him to restart at the back of the field again. As the laps wound down, he rallied back to a sixth-place result. "It was not the finish that we were looking for, but it was still a solid way to start the season. We gained some points with a heat race win, and we'll look forward to next weekend."
1. Cox, 2. Jay Doerr, 3. Shawn Thompson, 4. Box, 5. Powell, 6. Matt Pritiko
May 24th was night number two of the Delaware Speedway championship chase, and Pritiko opened the evening with his qualifying heat. He started on the pole, and for the second consecutive week wound up in heat race victory lane, going wire-to-wire with the lead. He said, "We're after a championship and those heat race points are so big at the end of the season. Our car is pretty good, and I think we're set for the feature."
In the main event of the evening, Matt took the green from the outside of the third row and picked up three spots in the first three laps, tucking into line behind Jay Christie and Tyler Hendricks. On lap six Pritiko dispatched Hendricks, and just two laps later he made the move into the lead.
Pritiko paced the field, and despite some challenges from Cox continued to hold serve on every restart until lap 29 when Cox was Pritiko was passed on the outside. Matt tucked into line and tried to battle back to the front, but when the checkers flew had come up one position short. "We were really good once we got going, but it took a couple of laps to get up to speed. If we didn't have all those cautions in the second half of the race we were in really good shape for the win. We were still able to lead about 25 laps of the race, and have had a couple of good runs to open the season. To win the championship you have to put up top-fives and top-tens, and win heat races – that's what we've done so far this season."
1. Cox, 2. Matt Pritiko, 3. Powell, 4. Stephen Richmond, 5. Thompson.
Points (after 2 of 12 events) – 1. Cox (176 points), 2. Matt Pritiko (171), 3. Thompson (160), Richmond (160), 5. Powell (156).
Following a week off, the Global Warranty Racing Team will be back in action for a doubleheader weekend, as they on compete Friday June eighth for another regular scheduled night of FT Garage Late Model competition. On Saturday June ninth, the team will head to Flamboro Speedway for the first round of the 'Grisdale Triple Crown'. The first event of the three-race season will give Pritiko a chance to compete at the Hamilton-area oval, and he's looking forward to it. "I'm always up for a new challenge. I've never even seen the track, but I'm excited about trying another track."
This weekend, Pritiko will be part of a special event at Delaware Speedway, as part of the 'High School Challenge'. A number of weeks ago, it was announce that a group of London-area schools would be building Bone Stock Chaos Cars to compete at Delaware. Each school was paired with a Late Model driver who will be piloting the student built cars in a special race, for a feature race on Saturday. "I'm excited to be competing, and representing Thames Secondary School with their car this weekend. The students have done a tremendous job of preparing the car, and have gained a great deal of valuable experience. Hopefully we can turn some of those students into future races and crew members, and I'm looking forward to driving their car on Saturday against some of the other Late Model drivers."
Matt Pritiko and his car will also be on display Monday June third for the London Charity Golf Classic for Prostate Cancer Awareness at the Highland Golf and Country Club in London, as well as on June 24th for the Lexus of London Golf Classic, at The Oaks Golf and Country Club. The team will be auctioning off a variety of prizes, including Track Days, Ride-alongs, and Karting packages.

Coming at you with the fourth Junk @ Home challenge of 2015. I'm a few days late, sorry! I was out of two weeks ago and I got sick while I was away! Luckily it was just a 7-day cold and I'm nearly back to 100%. Just in time to make some knock-off Twinkies this weekend!
Lots of people have tried their own recipes for this classic snack cake. Two years ago, when Hostess was going out of business, everyone freaked out and developed their own recipe. Not being a Hostess snack cake fan, and knowing that someone would likely buy the patents and start making them again, I never jumped on the bandwagon.
This recipe was requested when I sent out the call for 2015 challenge foods. Rather than trying to replicate the flavor and texture of a classic Twinkie, I decided to create a homemade version with real world flavors. Of course I bought myself a box of snack cakes and did some taste testing. To tell the truth, I have no idea what the flavor is supposed to be. Mystery food. Franken-food.
This recipe is like an inside-out cupcake. Soft yellow cake, filled with fluffy vanilla frosting. It tastes natural, not mysterious, and delicious. This recipe won't save you any calories, but it's completely free of any preservatives. This snack cake won't last through an nuclear winter, better eat them right after they're done!
Save your money, make your own cake molds! Unless you want to make these cakes again and again. I didn't want one more piece of baking equipment to store in our little kitchen.

Yu Darvish and Bruce Chen both have poor ERAs, but each was outstanding in his most recent outing. These pitchers turned in scoreless efforts last week, and they meet Monday when the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals start a four-game set at Kauffman Stadium. Darvish (13-9, 4.31 ERA) struck out 10 for the second consecutive outing and pitched seven innings Tuesday for a 1-0 home victory over Tampa Bay. The right-hander has struck out at least 10 eight times in 24 starts. The only Ranger with more such efforts in a season was Nolan Ryan, with 18 in 1989. "I'm not worried about the outside stuff, or even giving up walks," Darvish said through his interpreter. "I'm just pitching right now." Although Darvish has struggled with a ratio of 4.77 walks per nine innings for one of the worst marks in the majors, he has walked only three over his last 14 innings heading into his first start against Kansas City (60-73). The Rangers (79-54) will try to hand Chen (10-10, 5.13) his first ...

In the Crease: Nabokov leaving KHL
Updated: December 14, 2010, 12:27 PM ETBy Tim Kavanagh | Special to ESPN.com
First things first: Many thanks to colleague Sean Allen for heeding the call and wonderfully manning this column the past two weeks. Vacation time for yours truly is now over, and it's time to dive right back in.
The big news this week is that former San Jose Sharks goaltender Evgeni Nabokov has parted ways with his Kontinental Hockey League club (SKA St. Petersburg), citing "family reasons." In 22 games for SKA this season, Nabokov had mustered a 3.02 goals-against average and .888 ...

The NBA says Major Gen. Ronald Johnson will resign as senior vice president of referee operations at the end of July. Johnson joined the league in 2008 to head a newly formed department following the betting scandal involving former referee Tim Donaghy. Johnson had spent 32 years as an Army combat engineer, and says Thursday in a statement that he feels he has accomplished his mission of improving the management of the league's officials. Commissioner David Stern says Johnson fostered ''a culture of compliance and discipline that is at the core of any officiating program's success,'' and wished him well in future endeavors. The league says it will begin the process of finding Johnson's replacement.
