A quarter century ago, ABC Sports revolutionized all television production with innovations such as sophisticated Chyron graphics and unique "minicam" views of the action. Now' in partnership with its cable sister, ESPN' ABC Sports is at it again, this time bringing new production techniques to televised basketball.
NBA games, which began airing last week, are getting new camera angles, sights and sounds' all inspired by jazz music. Viewers will now be able to see the action from above any spot on the court via a floating overhead camera system called "Free Flight." From another extreme, first-ever floor-view images will be presented looking up at the action from a lens imbedded into the playing surface itself. That new system is called "Floor Cam."
To accompany the new visual sensations, the animation and graphics will blend the feel of vintage Blue Note Records album covers with samples of the look of ESPN The Magazine. An extensive music package will accent the design with diverse sounds ranging from contemporary to jazz to large orchestral fanfares.
The new Free-Flight system will hover over the court, moving in three directions. Similar to "Sky Cam," which debuted on ESPN's Sunday night NFL coverage this season, the new flying camera goes from end-to-end and side-to-side with the ability to rise or descend on pre-programmed or operator-controlled flight paths. It will be used during both live action and replays, providing a look at play from overhead any point on the court.
In another NBA first, the "Above the Rim" camera angle looking down at the basket will be equipped with Super Slo-Mo capability. This technology uses more frames (90 per second) to provide a slower and more detailed replay.
ESPN and the NBA are working together to develop Floor Cam. The embedded lens will be able to pan and tilt, and the exact location may vary from game-to-game. This technology is still under development, with an anticipated debut before New Year's Day.
The same "Xducer" microphones developed for NBC's defunct X Games will enhance audio. They are sensitive to vibrations, not sound waves, and when placed in the actual court provide the sound of the ball bouncing without adding to the ambient sound of the crowd.

good coffee and food,plenty to choose from,good service friendly staff,with great views out the back looking over the park and the ovens river
There are a number of good cafes in Bright but we loved this one most because the baked muffins and breads are fresh and delicious. Coffees do not disappoint either. It is also one of the more spacious cafes which both indoors and outdoors seating available. I would come back again next time I'm in Bright.
My family and I enjoyed lunch here earlier this week. We had a number of shared plates of the most yummiest comfort food we have ever enjoyed, including meatballs, slow cooked duck and potatoes....all the time being kept very warm by the number of open fire pits.
I have had coffee and breakfast here on several occasions when staying at Bright and both the food and coffee have always been great. I especially love the pancakes. In winter they close off the outdoor area and have two wood firs for warmth. In summer the big oak trees out the back provide a lush cooling coverage.
This little cafe is situated by the Ovens River in Bright and is filled with charm and ambiance. The owners and staff are incredibly engaging and passionate about their cafe and the area. They make you feel at home and like one of the family as soon as you walk in. The open log fires keep everybody snug and warm...
Great ambience and service. Cosy comfy. Coffee and tea hot a fresh. Third time visiting. A regular spot when in Bright, summer or winter.
What a great cafe, tucked away behind clear blinds and with the open fires burning warmly, it's a great place to people watch. The share plates are tasty and leave you wanting to try every one they have on offer, beautiful food at great prices, highly recommend
Visited Ginger Baker for coffee on most recent (last couple of years) trips to Bright and did so again this time
Coffee and service has been good on previous visits but wasn't this time.
There were 4 of us for coffee only at about 9 Saturday morning. We arrived with 4 other parties - the others mostly couples. We were...
This was probably a middle of the road experience for us. Lovely food, lovely setting on a cold winters morning, but the service was a bit abrupt and there was a struggle with wait times when tables filled up. Great food, but I'm not entirely sure about value for rmoney..
If you're looking for a pretentious place to eat in Bright, you've found it!
My partner and I came in at about 3pm to make a reservation for the evening. After being shown the menus and told to come past after 6pm to secure 'your table' as they do not take bookings, we were left hungry and disappointed to find...

Joshua Barrie, reporter / / News
A Bromley sign asking people to get rid of their chewing gum in a polite manner has landed itself in a sticky situation.
The message has come under fire from users on Twitter for its 'please stick your gum here' prompt.
It asks members of the public to stick their minty chews on a picture of happy, normal, and sad faces.
The sign - how does it make you feel?
The offending post was tweeted by @Kent999s and has prompted some laughs online.
Bromley Council says the whole point of the sign is to avoid gum going on the floor, but some feel the alternative doesn't look any better.

Effects of bisphenol A on thyroid hormone-dependent up-regulation of thyroid hormone receptor α and β and down-regulation of retinoid X receptor γ in Xenopus tail culture
ABSTRACT We investigated effects of different concentrations (10(-7) - 10(-5) M) of bisphenol A (BPA), which is known as an estrogenic and anti-thyroid hormonal endocrine disrupter, on the expression of thyroid hormone receptor (TR) alpha and beta and retinoid X receptor (RXR) gamma mRNA in tails of stage 52-54 Xenopus tadpoles in organ culture in the presence or absence of different concentrations of triiodo-thyronine (T(3)). In the absence of T(3), BPA at any concentration examined did not show remarkable effects on tail length but blocked 10(-7) M T(3)-induced tail resorption in a concentration-dependent manner. Semi-quantitative analyses of TRalpha and TRbeta mRNAs by RT-PCR in the tail specimens indicated that BPA shows an apparent antagonistic effect towards the receptors and reduced their mRNA levels relative to controls. When administered together with 10(-7) M T(3), the antagonistic effects of BPA were detected more clearly and dose-dependently. While BPA prevented the autoinduction of both TRalpha and TRbeta genes by T(3), the effect was less marked on TRalpha than on TRbeta. BPA also moderately suppressed RXRgamma gene expression. Gene expression of RXRgamma, a partner for heterodimer formation of TRs, was supressed by T(3) alone and also by BPA alone, but no additive effects were observed so far as studied. The present study indicates that a relatively low concentration of BPA, 10(-7) M, as compared with those examined previously (10(-5) to 10(-4) M) by us and other investigators, acts as an antagonist of T(3) through suppression of TRalpha and TRbeta gene expression in Xenopus tail in culture.

ABSTRACT: Classically, thyroid hormones (THs) have been primarily associated with postembryonic development (Tata, 1968), notably metamorphosis in anuran amphibians and flat fish. This period is parallel to the perinatal period in man and many marked developmental transitions in other species. As amply described in other chapters, metamorphosis is characterized by a peak of thyroxine (T(4)) and triiodothyronine (T(3)) that is synchronous with the metamorphic climax. In contrast, the developmental period that characterizes embryonic development prior to the significant production of TH by the endogenous thyroid gland has received little attention. Furthermore, the prevailing concepts of TH physiology during this period have been framed by two observations in amphibians and mammals: first, TRs are expressed, while circulating TH levels are much lower than those during metamorphosis and, second, extrapolating from the knowledge largely obtained from in vitro models, in the absence of TH, the aporeceptor represses target gene transcription during premetamorphic development. We propose to revisit both concepts in the light of accumulating data, first, on TH availability both in eggs and in embryos and, second, on the increasing knowledge of the complexity of TR and TH control of transcription.Current Topics in Developmental Biology 01/2013; 103:365-96.

ABSTRACT: Synthetic endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been found in surface waters throughout the United States, and are known to enter waterways via discharge from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Studies addressing EDCs in wastewater do not examine their specific sources upstream of WWTPs. Presented here are results of a pilot study of potential sources of selected EDCs within an urban wastewater service area. Twenty-one wastewater samples were collected from a range of sites, including 16 residential, commercial, or industrial samples, and five samples from influent and effluent streams at the WWTP. Samples were analyzed for the following known and suspected EDCs: five phthalates, bisphenol A (BPA), triclosan, 4-nonylphenol (NP), and tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP), using well-established methods (EPA 625 and USGS O-1433-01). Twenty of 21 samples contained at least one EDC. Phthalates were widely detected; one or more phthalate compound was identified in 19 of 21 samples. Measurement of two phthalates in a field blank sample suggests that the accuracy of sample detections for these two compounds may be compromised by background contamination. Triclosan was detected in nine samples, BPA in five samples, and TCEP in four samples; NP was not detected. The results of this and future source-specific studies may be used to develop targeted pollution prevention strategies to reduce levels of EDCs in wastewater.Science of The Total Environment 09/2008; 405(1-3):153-60.

- "Bisphenol A is known to be an estrogen agonist that can activate the expression of the estrogen receptor gene (Min et al., 2003; Levy et al., 2004; Richter et al., 2007). Furthermore, in BPA-exposed animals over expression has been reported of progesterone receptors (Funabashi et al., 2001), androgen receptors (Richter et al., 2007) and thyroid hormone receptors (Iwamuro et al., 2006). Therefore, our results suggest that the Chironomus ecdysone receptor gene has the capacity, along with other steroid receptors of vertebrates, to be modulated by BPA. "
Article: The endocrine disruptor bisphenol A increases the expression of HSP70 and ecdysone receptor genes in the aquatic larvae of Chironomus riparius[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor that can mimic the action of estrogens by interacting with hormone receptors and is, therefore, potentially able to influence reproductive functions in vertebrates. Although information about the interaction with the endocrine systems in invertebrates is limited, it has also been shown its effect on reproductive and developmental parameters in these organisms. As little is known about its mechanism of action in aquatic invertebrates, we have examined the effects of BPA on the expression of some selected genes, including housekeeping, stress-induced and hormone-related genes in Chironomus riparius larvae, a widely used organism in aquatic ecotoxicology. The levels of different gene transcripts were measured by Northern blot or by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Exposure to BPA (3 mgl(-1), 12-24h) did not affect the levels of rRNA or those of mRNAs for both L11 or L13 ribosomal proteins, selected as examples of housekeeping genes involved in ribosome biogenesis. Nevertheless, BPA treatment induced the expression of the HSP70 gene. Interestingly, it was found that BPA significantly increases the mRNA level of the ecdysone receptor (EcR). These results show for the first time that exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals, such as BPA, can selectively affect the expression of the ecdysone receptor gene suggesting a direct interaction with the insect endocrine system. Furthermore, this finding suggests a common way of BPA action, shared by vertebrates and invertebrates, through interaction with steroid hormone receptors. Our study adds a new element, the EcR, which may be a useful tool for the screening of environmental xenoestrogens in insects.Chemosphere 06/2008; 71(10):1870-6.

At the 2012 NAB Show, LYNX Technik will introduce its new family of yellobrik multichannel embedders/de-embedders. The three new modules expand the ever-growing yellobrik line of compact signal processor solutions. An eight-channel 3G/HD/SD audio embedder/de-embedder is available in two versions — one for AES balanced audio and a second version for AES unbalanced audio. The PDM 1284B AES audio embedder /de-embedder for unbalanced audio is multi-functional in that it functions either as a four-channel AES embedder or de-embedder, or as a two-channel AES embedder and de-embedder. Additional channels of audio can be embedded and de-embedded by cascading modules together. The PDM 1284D AES audio embedder /de-embedder for balanced audio provides simultaneous embedding and de-embedding for four AES inputs/outputs. Both the PDM 1284B and PDM 1284D automatically detect the audio format and deactivate the sample rate converters to preserve encoded bit streams such as DolbyE. Also making its debut at NAB is the PDM 1382 analog audio embedder/de-embedder. This unit selectively de-embeds four channels within any audio group of an SDI video signal to any of the analog outputs. It can also simultaneously embed up to four channels of analog audio replacing the previously de-embedded audio and/or add audio into the SDI output. Additional channels of audio can be embedded and de-embedded by cascading modules together.

BERLIN — Jailed Pussy Riot member Nadezhda Tolokonnikova says she regrets nothing about the band's anti-government performance in a cathedral that got them convicted of hooliganism and sentenced to two years behind bars.
Tolokonnikova told Germany's Der Spiegel magazine in an interview released Sunday that her conviction with her two band mates were Russian President Vladimir "Putin's personal revenge" which served to put a global spotlight on his government.
She says, "I think the bottom line is that the trial against us was important because it showed the true face of Putin's system."
Der Spiegel said the performer's answers to the magazine's questions were provided through her lawyer, who is allowed to visit her in prison.
She says Pussy Riot's goal remains "a revolution in Russia."

Color for a cause
Volvo Rents has recently launched its "Color for a Cause" initiative to increase brand awareness and support various charities. The campaign allows franchise owners to choose a cause that they care about, as well as the equipment they would like to paint. A portion of the sales generated from that particular piece of equipment is then donated to the supported charity.
Taking his cue from the American Flag, franchise owner Paul Bullock (West Monroe, LA) has painted an Aerial Lift red, white and blue. Each time the Stars and Stripes Boom is rented, 50 percent of the revenues will be donated to Operation Gratitude and to the NE and NW Louisiana War Veterans Home to help support our troops — active and retired.
"It was the right thing to do — the smart thing to do," Bullock said. "It's absolutely working out well, but our goal was not to increase revenue, our goal was to support the troops and the veterans. It does bring us recognition for doing a good thing, but it was just a way to get our customers involved. When they rent the boom they're supporting the troops, too."

*D'Angelo, Janelle Monae and Rick Ross along with his Maybach Music Group are among the first booked acts announced by Jay-Z for his upcoming Budweiser Made in America Festival, to be held Sept. 1 and 2 at Philadelphia's Benjamin Franklin Parkway.
As previously reported, Jay-Z is curating the festival, which will include the long-awaited live return of D'Angelo. Tickets for the show go on sale on Wednesday and more acts will be announced soon.
Among the 28 acts that will hit three stages for the show are first night headliners Pearl Jam, as well as Jay himself, Grammy-winning star Skrillex, Odd Future and the Maybach Music Group featuring Rick Ross, Wale and Meek Mill.
Other performers include Afrojack, Calvin Harris, Passion Pit, Santigold, Miike Snow, Dirty Projectors, X, Prince Royce, Rita Ora, the Knocks and a DJ set by Savoy.
Before unveiling the line-up for the fest, Jay said he was hoping to break down some barriers with the Labor Day gathering.
"Whenever I enter into a project, I try to hit on some touch points. The first thing is: Is it great?" Jay asked rhetorically at a May 14 press conference on the stairs of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. "The second one is: Is it gonna push the culture forward?"

Balance bikes are the trend in teaching a kid to ride a 2 wheeler. The idea is to allow them to learn balance before they have to coordinate pedaling. There are very nice custom bikes built specifically with this in mind. However, they tend to be a little spendy and when your kid is ready for pedals you've got no choice but to buy an entirely new bike.
There's a pretty good background of what I'm talking about here:
Step 1: Tools and getting started
To do this you're going to need a 12" adjustable wrench, a chainbreaker, and a screwdriver. If you have a used bike you're going to want a pedal wrench.
Our objective is to remove the chain and cranks. If you're starting with an assembled bike, remove the training wheels and the pedals - note that the left pedal is reverse thread. You should probably use some penetrating oil before trying to remove them.
Step 2: Remove the chain guard and chain
Once you have access, use the chainbreaker to remove the drive chain.
Step 3: Remove the crank
Next turn the bike around and take a look at the way the cranks are held in - on this bike it is a one piece crank held in with a single nut that was reverse threaded. Remove the nut, washer, and the bearing cup. Remove the bearing (this one is caged, thankfully) then remove the crank.
Step 4: Clean up the bottom bracket
Clean all the grease off of everything and put the bearings, cups, washer and locknut somewhere for safekeeping - you'll need them to put the cranks back on. On this bike the edge of the bottom bracket was nice and smooth so I just left it as it was, but if the edge of your bottom bracket is rough you'll want to put some tape or a hunk of innertube on there to keep it safe.
Step 5: Finish the build
From here if you have a bike that was already built you're done. If there are any brakes you might want to remove them but it's not important. If you have a new bike, finish building it according to the directions you have.
Keep in mind that this size bike is not intended for riding on roads and that with the drivetrain off it has no brakes! Always have your kid wear a helmet.
Once your kid is comfortable riding, stopping, balancing, and turning you can put the pedals and crank back in.
Have fun!
I remember when I tried to learn to ride a bike the first time I could not learn because the training wheels made me nervous. The second time there where no training wheels and within two minutes I could ride my bike.
This was a very good guide to do this. I have been trying to teach my kids to ride with no training wheels for a bit now. Both of them seem to want to kick their feet up and not use their pedals. I feel this will eliminate the need for pedals all together and allow them to learn how to keep their balance better. Very great guide. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I found all I needed to do for my son was take the pedals off. The crank didn't seem to get in the way, and it was just 2 evenings going down a grassy hill before he asked for them back on.
he never really had a problem with the pedal crank there as his feet were out wide for balance. If you have a child that is a slow learner then I guess this I'ble would work for the long term.
my son was the latest to learn. what i did for him was to find a modest hill into a parking lot that isn't used very much. the parking lot was big and had plenty of room to coast to a sop. i started at the bottom of the hill and as my son got more and more confortable with coasting we worked gradually higher and higher. at the middle of the hill I had him pick up his feet and pedal when he felt comfortable. by the time we worked our way to the top he was a pedaling master.
I had him use this small bike with the seat set low for a couple weeks. he would shuffle to get going then pick up his feet and pedal. after a couple weeks I set his seat higher, and then after a couple weeks of that I switched him to a correct size bike for his size.

Nets players stick up for coach, say Jason Kidd not the problem
Nov 20, 2013, 12:02 PM EDT
There is not one problem with the Brooklyn Nets this season, there are many — injuries, Kevin Garnett looking his age, an offense that devolves quickly into isolations.
However, in the NBA where star players are at a premium and everyone has guaranteed contracts, it is coaches who shoulder the blame. That has already started to happen with Jason Kidd — there are questions about what he is doing and if he is in over his head popping up around the league.
As you had to expect, Nets' stars Garnett and Paul Pierce have come to Kidd's defense saying blame us, not the coach, reports the New York Post.
"Dismal. No one's happy about how we're playing. No one likes the current state. But everybody's willing and committed towards changing it. The way you change it is through work, and that's what we're doing,'' Garnett said. "The blame's on all of us. It's not just on Jason. You can't put the [blame] all on him. We're players who obviously have to be professional, come out here and do our jobs.''
"As competitors, we're angry. Nobody likes to lose," Pierce said. "Everybody in this group that we're here with are very angry. Nobody's happy about losing.
"We've got to hold everybody accountable: The players, the coaches, this one big group and we're all in it together, so it's not only on [Kidd]. It's on all of us.''
They're right, it's not all on Kidd, but he is the one likely to take the fall if things do not turn around because you can't fire players in the NBA.
Kidd was thrown into an almost impossible situation. He was hired straight out of his time as a player, with no coaching experience, to come in and meld six all stars and an older roster into a contender this season. It's a role Phil Jackson would be hesitant to take, let alone a rookie coach.
That said, expect the Nets to start playing better (expect better energy Wednesday night against Charlotte, to start), it was always going to take them time to get it all put together.
However, if things don't turn around, it is always the coach that becomes the scapegoat. Fair or not.

Blue Jays miss Reyes after trade with Rockies
TORONTO - The chemistry of the Toronto Blue Jays' clubhouse has been altered.
Shortstop Jose Reyes — one of the liveliest and most popular players among his teammates in Toronto — was sent to the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday along with reliever Miguel Castro and minor-league pitchers Jeff Hoffman and Jesus Tinoco.
Roger Goodell upholds Tom Brady's 4-game suspension
NEW YORK, N.Y. - The commissioner pointed to concealed evidence. The team described it as a folly. And the agent added sham to the lexicon of "Deflategate."
Then the players' union said it would take it all to court.
Tom Brady's four-game suspension for his role in using underinflated footballs during the AFC championship game was upheld Tuesday by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
Busy day off the field as Jays lose 3-2
TORONTO - A close loss by the Toronto Blue Jays was overshadowed by events off the field on Tuesday.
Second baseman Devon Travis and right-fielder Jose Bautista both left the game as Toronto fell to the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2, hours after shortstop Jose Reyes and three Blue Jays pitchers were traded to the Colorado Rockies for shortstop Troy Tulowitzki and reliever LaTroy Hawkins.
Breaking Lucky wins Prince of Wales race
FORT ERIE, Ont. - Breaking Lucky proved to be a bad omen to Shaman Ghost's Triple Crown aspirations Tuesday night.
The 13/1 longshot came from last to edge the Queen's Plate winner by a neck in the $500,000 Prince of Wales Stakes at Fort Erie Racetrack. Breaking Lucky's victory leaves Wando (2003) as the last Canadian Triple Crown champion.
Jays acquire Tulowitzki, send Reyes to Rockies
TORONTO - Toronto Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos couldn't miss the chance to get one of the top shortstops in baseball, even at the cost of more prospects.
Anthopoulos acquired shortstop Troy Tulowitzki and reliever LaTroy Hawkins in a trade with the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday in exchange for shortstop Jose Reyes, reliever Miguel Castro and minor-league pitchers Jeff Hoffman and Jesus Tinoco.
Sam to make CFL debut some time in August
MONTREAL - Michael Sam's CFL debut is getting closer, but Montreal Alouettes coach Tom Higgins won't say exactly when it will be.
Some time in August, perhaps as early as Saturday in Calgary, the defensive end who gained fame as the first active pro football player who is openly gay will get into a game.
"He's going to see the field in August, but we have five games in August, four on the road," Higgins said Tuesday. "He is getting so much closer to being able to play.
Toronto's Bradley to skip MLS all-star game
TORONTO - Toronto FC captain Michael Bradley is skipping Wednesday's MLS all-star game because of a calf problem.
Bradley, who is coming off a six-game Gold Cup campaign with the U.S., was scheduled to undergo a scan Tuesday.
"We're hoping that's it a contusion (not a tear), of course," said Toronto coach Greg Vanney. "But he's having some discomfort in the calf and some swelling in there. We're going to get a scan today and we're going to get him some necessary rest over the course of this week and hope that he can get ready for the weekend."
French Connection grows at Toronto FC
TORONTO - A former defender himself, Toronto FC coach Greg Vanney is a big believer in communication on the backline.
And in newly signed centre back Ahmed Kantari, Vanney has a man of many tongues. The 30-year-old Kantari speaks French, English, Spanish and Moroccan Arabic.
Kantari is the latest member of Toronto FC's French Connection. Born in France, he plays internationally for Morocco thanks to his parents' bloodlines.
Canucks acquire Sutter from Penguins
VANCOUVER - Willie Desjardins was part of the reason Brandon Sutter never made it to the second round of the Western Hockey League playoffs.
Now the pair will be working together to get the Vancouver Canucks back to the NHL post-season.
The club acquired Sutter and a third-round pick in 2016 from the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday in a deal that sent fellow centre Nick Bonino, minor-league defenceman Adam Clendening and a second-round selection next year the other way.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
Pittsburgh in mid-June, dry and bright with a high sun, and Porter Ellis was in that kind of fragile mood where something as dumb as the weather could make him feel good. As he cruised along Washington Boulevard and rumbled out onto the potholed span of the Highland Park Bridge, Porter couldn't believe this was the same gloomy city where he'd spent his entire adult life. The Allegheny River -- that smelly trough of green goo -- looked like one big vacation. Sleek boats shot up and down its shimmering surface. Clusters of fishermen dotted the industrial shoreline, casting their lines merrily into the swill.
It had been three weeks since Porter's wife had died. And today -- after all the well-wishers had come and gone, after the phone calls had slowed to a trickle, after Porter's boss had delicately hinted that maybe he should return to work soon -- Porter traded in his wife's old Mazda on a used truck with a camper on the back and decided that, startingno, he was going to try to be happy. He was going to appreciate his life, damn it. And he wasn't going to allow himself to be dragged down any further by grief or by his in-laws' opinions of how he ought to conduct his life and the lives of his two children, who now, as he did not need to be reminded, had no mother.
Porter descended the off-ramp into Sharpsburg, drifted past its bars -- IRON CITY BEER! -- and pizza pubs and auto-body shops, then turned onto Kittanning Pike and began the steep climb to Fox Chapel.
How many times had he made this drive in the past twelve years? A thousand? Three thousand? But always in Lucy's Mazda. He'd spent so many hours behind the wheel of that car,the stick shift felt like an extension of his hand. Downshifting his way up Kittanning Pike was a rhythm as familiar as breathing -- fourth to third at Oakhurst, third to second at the Greenwood Cemetery, and then the slow, grinding push over the top into Fox Chapel, where the road left behind all the lower-class drudgery and pollution of the valley and began its happy journey through forested enclaves of million-dollar homes and sprawling golf courses.
As he climbed the hill today, Porter kept waiting for the drag of gravity to puff at him, for that plaintive sigh of the engine to tell him to downshift, but this truck, despite its age and the added burden of carrying the camper, powered on up like a mighty plowhorse. The camper itself was a faded Magic Bus -- a purple-and-green tin shack complete with shag carpeting, velvet curtains, and a spare gas can that had been affixed to the rear bumper with silver duct tape. But the truck's engine thrummed. Porter sailed over the top with an exhilarating lift and whoosh that he had experienced only inside the plush, suede comfort of his father-in-law's Mercedes E320. Porter kept it floored down the backside and carried too much speed into the first sharp corner, and as the camper rocked on its haunches, Porter had to grip the wheel and tap the brakes to bring it under control. Feeling chastened, he negotiated the three roller-coaster hills of Old Mill Road and swung into the entrance to his in-laws' house, which was marked on either side by decorative split-rail fencing.
The Winters' driveway was a hushed, leafy tunnel that served as a drumroll for the sight of the Winters' house, which burst into view at tunnel's end to the accompaniment -- in Porter's mind, anyway -- of trilling woodwinds and an angels' chorus. Sloping up toward the house, as if in homage, was an exquisite carpet of dandelion-free Kentucky bluegrass (which had arrived by flatbed truck, in stacked layers of sod, several summers before). The driveway ascended the lawn in two short switchbacks, graced along the way by terraced pockets of tulips and rosebushes, towering maples and Douglas firs. Porter had never seen nature so whipped into shape as it was here, always trimmed to perfection and dolled up in its Sunday best.
The house -- sitting atop the yard like a statue on a podium -- was an English Tudor jumble of eaves, peaked windows, and white stucco that William had built to match his childhood house in Oxford, England. Tucked neatly into the backyard, as if out of embarrassment, was a full recreation facility: a red-clay, tennis court; a sand play area with slides, swings, a jungle gym, and an in-ground trampoline; and a teardrop-shaped pool surrounded on its fat end by an apron of pale blue ceramic tile, at the edge of which sat a white cabana, with its minibar, bathroom, and TV den.
For years Porter and Lucy had managed to decline the Winters' offers offinancial support, determined to forge their own way in life. But the Winters' backyard paradise was their one guilty indulgence. It, had started that first summer, when Kaylie was eight months old. It was an evening in late May, a real scorcher of a day for so early in the summer, and, unfathomably, Porter had chosen to grill kielbasa on their cramped porch. Kaylie was a red-faced piglet in Lucy's arms, and Porter was circling their little hibachi with fork and hot pad in hand, cursing trying to avoid the smoke. And Lucy said, "You know, we should call my parents and see what they're up to. I'll bet they'd love to have us come over and take a swim."
Normally Porter would have laughed at the thought. He had struggled to like Lucy's parents, or even just to be pleasant with them. But that evening, standing teary-eyed in the funnel of kielbasa smoke that kept pursuing him around the porch, he'd imagined that pristine...After Lucy. Copyright © by Daniel Jones.

Ukip councillor Gordon Gillick: 'Poor, badly educated people are fat because they like it'
They enjoy being 25 stone, said Councillor Gillick.
Andy McSmith
Andy McSmith is a senior reporter at The Independent. He has vast experience in political journalism and has also appeared on documentaries for BBC Radio 4.
Thursday 24 July 2014
The reason poor, badly educated people are fat is because they like being fat, according to Gordon Gillick, the Ukip member of Cambridgeshire County Council.
He contributed his thoughts on the undeserving poor during a debate on whether the council should focus its reduced resources on the most socially deprived parts of the county.
"The people we describe as obese, thick, badly educated, whichever way you like to phrase it... they enjoy being 25 stone, they're not discontent, they're just a burden on the state," the Cambridge News reports him saying.
He then appeared to contradict himself by blaming unemployment on competition from East European migrants who were willing to live in their cars or "14 to a house".
Liberal Democrat Cllr Ian Manning told Gillick he was a "fool" for making such statements.
"Demonising people on benefits, saying people on benefits want to be there, is a complete misunderstanding of how horrible it is to live a life dependant upon the state."
Last November, Gillick provoked a flood of complaints after he asked three children from foster homes what it felt like to be "takers".
An investigation concluded that Cllr Gillick had failed to treat three teenagers in care, who were visiting Shire Hall for a training session, with respect.
Cllr Gillick, who is a father of 10 and has 42 grandchildren, said in a letter to the council that he "completely accepted" the findings.
His wife, Victoria, was briefly famous in the 1980s for her campaign to prevent doctors prescribing contraceptives to under-16s without parental consent.
