SYRACUSE With the imminent arrival of Oklahoma transfer Drew Allen, Terrel Hunt knew he had to make the most of spring practice to get a leg up in the competition at starting quarterback for the Syracuse University football team.
And though first-year SU coach Scott Shafer isnt likely to announce a starter until shortly before the Aug. 31 season opener, Hunt has shown he is up to the task.
The 6-foot-3 junior was the clear standout during Saturdays annual spring game at the Carrier Dome, leading the White squad to a 27-7 victory over the Blue squad. The white squad consisted mainly of projected starters and the blue squad was made up of the expected second unit, with several players lining up for both teams.
Im just excited about the competition, Shafer said. Any time you bolster the roster with more numbers, obviously we think the kids can play that were bringing in, it creates more competition. I know when I played, when I was afraid of that guy behind me taking my job from me, I became a better player. And I feel that way at a lot of positions.
Were going to figure out this quarterback thing, Shafer added. We got all summer to figure this thing out and see all the new faces that are coming in wearing the blue and orange. And I look forward to the competition as we start moving forward.
Hunt completed 19 of 29 passes for 209 yards and two touchdowns, including a perfectly placed ball on a 49-yard streak to senior Jarrod West to open his groups second series of the afternoon.
Both of Hunts touchdowns went to West, who led all returning wide receivers with 588 yards last year. He caught six passes for 82 yards on Saturday.
Shafer said that throughout the spring session, Hunt created a little separation, between himself and the other returning signal callers, seniors Charley Loeb and John Kinder. But the 6-foot-5 Allen, who has just one year of eligibility remaining, will be another player Hunt has to go through when preseason camp opens.
When I first found out that he was coming, I went to go work out, because I dont ever want to be a starter in spring and then lose the spot because another guy came, Hunt said.
Hunt also showed the ability to read the defense on Saturday. He called an audible that resulted in a 39-yard touchdown run by sophomore George Morris III, a play that capped off a drive that started on the White squads own three-yard line.
He threw some good balls out there and made some good checks against the pressure, which is higher learning for a young quarterback, Shafer said. (He) got us out of a couple bad plays, that was good to see.
After winning the first phase of the competition, Hunt is preparing to enter preseason camp as the starter, which he described as a dream come true.
It still doesnt seem real to me yet, Im still learning how to become the starting quarterback, Hunt said. I was learning how to fight for it, now Im learning how to become the starting quarterback and all the responsibilities that it takes.
Morris III, hyped as one of the major standouts during spring practice, ran eight times for a team-high 69 yards and a touchdown Saturday.
Another newcomer, Devante McFarlane, took a pair of screen passes and weaved his way through defenders for a total of 47 yards.
Shafer said that he was pleased with both players during the spring session and each could contribute this fall in a backfield that already features four returning playmakers.
We have good running backs. So we need to find a way to get them all on the field, be creative on offense. We got great competition, Shafer said.
SUs backfield includes incumbent starter and workhorse, senior Jerome Smith, Prince-Tyson Gulley, who tallied 275 totals yards and three touchdowns in last years bowl game, dynamic sophomore Ashton Broyld and tank back, Adonis Ameen-Moore.
Smith gained 38 yards on 11 carries and Ameen-Moore ran the ball nine times for 17 yards Saturday. Gulley and Broyld both missed the game with injuries.

Waiting On: FFXV, KH3, Tree of Savior, RE:FFVII · Saving For: New Computer
i am actually pretty excited for this! i played WK for a while back when it was open. i found it pretty entertaining.
I'm all down for Wonderking back in my hands... I had a blast with the community and made many friends.
But.. yes there's a but..
I heard that the other 2 versions of WK2, Japan and Thailand, I think those were the 2, are now shutting down.
If those 2 are shutting down, then won't the NA Version soon go down as well?
Or can, whoever publishes this, keep the game up and running with their own updates, etc.?
The controls are abysmal, the skill animations are significantly worse than anything on the current version of Maple Story (keep in mind that all old classes have been revamped, visually and technically).
If you think Wonderking has better sprites than Maple Story your opinion is pretty much invalid and you need to get your eyes checked. They both have pretty bad art direction but at least I can enjoy Maple Story on an ironic level. Wonderking just looks like ass.
This game is pretty much the same as Maple Story in every way, except significantly worse. There's even mining in Maple Story now. At least LaTale attempts to be different than Maple. Wonderking didn't even try. There's a reason it keeps getting shut down and it's not because it's amazing.
Just to clarify, I'm not saying that Maple Story is the most awesome game ever and you should all play it. It is what it is. Wonderking is a worse version of it. Kinda gives a bootleg-vibe, it's sloppier, buggier, Chinese knockoff-ish.

Now that there's new management at the helm of Canadian BlackBerry manufacturer Research in Motion (RIM), the company's future is the subject of much discussion and speculation. I have been researching, collecting and consolidating information to our readers with an exclusive insider view of the Research In Motion's (RIM) product and release road map strategy for 2012.
I came across the following RIM Roadmap Deck that best illustrates where the company is headed in the coming months. The following summarizes RIM's product launch roadmap for the next 15 months:
- Apparently two new Blackberry Curve smartphones are to be launched in short order. the BlackBerry Curve 9230 and the BlackBerry Curve 9320. The 9230 will be an EDGE smartphone and the Curve 9320 will be an HSPA device
- Rumor has it that RIM will be launching two new Blackberry PlayBook - a 10-inch Playbooks running the latest build of RIM's well-received Playbook OS, version 2.0. Playbook OS 2.0 with the capability to support 4G LTE is scheduled to arrive in February. With a 7-inch 3G capable model coming by April.
- It seems that the BlackBerry London which will reportedly run RIM's new QNX-based smartphone operating system, BlackBerry 10 is still on track for a September launch
- There is now another BlackBerry 10 smartphone in the works that will launch as part of Balackberry Bold series accessories. The phone features a touchscreen display and QWERTY keyboard, and it is planned for a December release
- A QWERTY slider running BlackBerry 10 has been talked about for the first quarter of 2013.

Hey guys. I finished MEPS and passed everything and secured my spot for 68W. I want to know if they do a height and weight test at reception? What's reception like, what do they test? What's "fat camp", how does it work? If I had to go to "fat camp" (which I highly doubt) would I go back to basic like nothing happened and my AIT spot would still be there when i'm done or what? Thanks for all your time.

Few Questions about ReceptionTags: None
Re: Few Questions about Reception
"Fat camp" usually happens after BCT if the soldier can't pass the final APFT. They are helf back to get in better shape and tested againa very couple of weeks. If you go to BCT in decent shape you will have no problem. If you have a weight/APFT problem concentrate on your PT and do extra during you free time in the evening. Also watch what you eat in the DFAC.
Your height and weight will be tested again at MEPS before you ship. If you need to loose weight, start now. Start running 4-5 days a week, knock out 25-40 push ups every hour or 2 duting the day and mix some situps on there. Cut out all soda, juice, coffee, etc. Drink lots of water.
Re: Few Questions about Reception
"Fat Camp" as you call it is remedial PT. If you make it to your line company at BCT and start failing the PT test, they will pull you out of your company and take you back to Reception BN where you will be put in a special Company that does basically nothing but PT all day, every day. You would re-enter BCT "if" you could then make tape and pass the PT test at whatever point you left off, so you'd end up in a different Company or possibly even a different BN depending on where they are in the training cycle. This means you will be on station at BCT longer and your AIT slot is going to get jacked up. You might even lose it depending on timing.
AIRBORNE hit the nail on the head, don't go there expecting BCT to get you in shape. You should be able to pass the PT test as a first time go, otherwise you're just asking to get labeled by your DSs for the rest of the cycle.
Re: Few Questions about Reception
Thanks guys. I know I can pass the PT test (1 mile 8:30, 17 SU 13 PU or something like that) I just think I weigh more than I should is all. First time i've heard of FTU, that's why I wanted to learn more about it. I got 3 months to drop weight so i'm good.
Re: Few Questions about Reception
you should be aiming for the 2 mile, 2 min PU 2 min SU standards. Also, an 8:30 1 miles is only 17:00 2 mile and the second mile is always the slower one. And unless you are over 27 that is not a passing time. Once you get to BCT there is no more 1-1-1. Do you mind telling us what your height, weight, age and gender?
If you have a smart phone download the army APFT app and use it to test yourself weekly.
Re: Few Questions about Reception
Male 18 yoa, 72 in, 200 lbs. I don't have to pass this test until later during basic though right? Not at reception? No smart phone at the moment.

42 - 71 pushups in 2 min
53 - 78 sit-ups in 2 min
13:00 - 15:54 for 2 mile run
max weight of 190#'s & 20% body fat
You will be assessed during reception for the 1-1-1. After that you will have to pass the first APFT with a minimum of 60 in each event in order to continue to the next phase and eventually graduate.
Hope this helps. Others will chime in to correct me if needed.Last edited by bai78; June 4th, 2013, 11:56 PM.
Re: Few Questions about Reception
A 60? How do they score you? I take it the counts above are minimum to maximum for my age group?
Re: Few Questions about Reception
What is missing there is a % sign. You have to score a minimum of 60% in each event. For the above numbers 42 pushups is the 60% mark with 71 pushups being 100%. The Situps is the same, but the run is different. 13:00 minutes is 100% and 15:54 is 60% (shorter time = better run). So right now with your 1 mile at 8:30 then your 2 mile is probably around 17 min, maybe more. That gives you an idea of what it is that you have to work at.
Re: Few Questions about Reception
Originally posted by Abu-shalbak View PostA 60? How do they score you? I take it the counts above are minimum to maximum for my age group?
60 pts = 42 pushups in 2 minutes
60 pts = 53 sit-ups in 2 minutes
60 pts = 15:54 for 2 mile run

Re: Few Questions about Reception
Yes i'm going to RSP this weekend. I'm only going to three total before BCT. During that time I will be working out and eating healthy. I'll make the minimum cut for sure. I train high (run 3 miles, not 2) but aim for acceptable. I'm hoping at basic they'll straighten me out past acceptable standards. But right now I just want to pass.

Orange and chocolate top nearly everyone's chart of favorite flavor marriages, which is what makes this sauce so appealing. If you have candied orange peel on hand, chop some and pair it with the sauce for an extra dose of orange. Use a Microplane grater to zest the orange.
Start by placing the butter in a sauce pan and melt using a medium flame. Keep cooking the butter, stirring occasionally, on a low-medium flame. The milk solids will rest to the bottom of the pan and will eventually start to turn brown. In French this is referred to as a Beurre Noissette. The burned butter provides a warm nutty flavor to the finished cake. Turn the heat off once the milk solids have reached a dark brown color. Pour the butter into a bowl and allow to cool.
In a mixer with a paddle attachment combine the powdered sugar, almond flour, and vanilla. Add the egg whites to the dry ingredients followed by the cooled butter. Finish with the sifted all purpose our and baking powder.
Place the batter in an airtight container and allow it sit overnight in the refrigerator (minimum 12 hours).
Pull the batter out a few hours before the desired baking time.
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Financiers are traditionally baked in a rectangle shape about 2 inches by 1 inch. These molds can be found as individual metal molds or a single silicone mat. Any small mold, whatever shape, will work just fine.
Spray the chosen mold with a cooking spray or using a pastry brush, brush with butter. Fill the molds a little more than half way. Bake in the 350F oven for six minutes and then rotate and bake for another four.
Baking times will vary depending on the oven.
The Financiers should be a light to medium brown on the outside and warm on the inside. As another option, before baking, place a small pi

Still sore about 28k? I am in the same basic boat as you, Kenshi. But you know, I don't mind it too much. I do wish that I had the same download speed as at work, but they don't offer that type of speed here (56k is the fastest we get, period).
Oh boo freakin hoo. You must be one of those dsl nazis.
A dial-up brother! It's not very common that we run into each other. We really need to form a fraternity and stick together as one. Together, we will overcome the dsl nazis and cable communists.Still sore about 28k? I am in the same basic boat as you, Kenshi.
Cable is t3h 1337! I can download in seconds what you download in hours
Communist! You will be eliminated!
The dsl nazis and cable communists should be eliminated. Maybe the future versions of Linux XP will have new dial-up features that let our customers use only those ISP's that our company finds reliable, thus letting the users avoid the confusion of choosing their ISP themselves. But right now we would like to announce our newest Service Pack, the Linux XP Service Pack Improved Features Package Ultra Plus VII. It will have new bugs, security holes, software upgrades and provide access to Linux XP's website and its software archives. Here are some highlights:
Advanced file management. In other Linux distributions, it's easy to accidentally overwrite or delete an important file, without the chance to undo the changes. In Linux XP's new upgraded graphical file manager the risk of doing this unfortunate mistake is smaller. For example, when the user deletes a file, Linux XP will show a dialog asking: "Do you want to delete this file?" If the user clicks OK, another dialog says: "If you delete this file, it will be removed from your system. Proceed?" If the user clicks OK, another dialog informs: "If you remove this file, you won't be able to view or execute it anymore. Are you sure?" If the user clicks OK, another dialog says: "Removing this file may affect other files on your system. Do you want to continue?" If the user clicks OK, a dialog asks: "Are you sure you want to delete this file?" If the user clicks OK, the file manager will move the file to Trash and Tuxedo pops up telling the user that he's removed the file and he won't be able to execute it again, unless he wants to restore it from Trash.
Improved virus and worm support. The unfortunate fact is that there are many viruses for Windows but very few for Linux. Linux XP has a special support for Windows viruses, which means that Windows viruses can damage a Linux XP system just as much as they damage Windows! This makes users who migrate from Windows really feel like home. The new Outlook compatible mail client for Linux XP ensures the easiest and most efficient way of getting infected by new viruses and forwarding them to all of the user's friends. When a Linux XP system gets infected, the system will show a dialog giving detailed information about the type of infection, showing a status bar and telling the user: "Please wait while your system is being destroyed."
Trojan Horse downloads. The new upgraded Linux XP's website has a Customer's Area with huge software download archives, and the users can easily download many different Trojan horses to their system. And because every normal user on a Linux XP system has the same rights as the root user, our customers can be confident that the damages caused by Trojans are maximised on a Linux XP system, thus letting the users experience exciting moments.
Cracker friendly. Because it is very easy to crack a Windows system, we have realised that most Windows users would feel trapped if they used a normal Linux installation. Fortunately, the new Linux XP has a security system which makes sure that every possible port on a Linux XP system is open. If this isn't enough, we also have a "Cracker Invite Wizard" which walks the user through an easy procedure where he can define how, when and how often he wants the system to be cracked. As a new feature in the latest version of the Cracker Invite Wizard the user can also enable the "Script Kiddie" option and define the age range he prefers, and the Cracker Invite Wizard automatically generates scripts and little programs based on the user's preferences and sends them to the Linux XP 1337 5cr1p7 k1dd13 Community.
You will get all these features and more when you buy our newest Service Pack. The Service Pack will cost only $500 if you order it quickly! Get it now!

Many residents of southeastern Utah and the western United States may have considered the idea of mining uranium for nuclear power as a practice long past the point of reality.
But the nuclear power industry has been sitting just around the corner. The industry has been waiting for something to change - first for an increased demand and second for the public's perception and opinion of nuclear power to change.
It currently appears that a rapidly approaching nuclear perfect storm has appeared on the horizon.
The demand for and cost of oil, natural gas and carbon based resources and the fact that the country relies on foreign sources so strongly for the fuels along with global climate change concerns are making many Americans rethink nuclear power.
It appears the age of worrying about the Three Mile Island accident or the catastrophic Chernobyl incident seems to be fading from the people's minds.
Years of negative press and stories about nuclear power seem to be fading from the populace's attitudes, and there are some out there that are ready to gain from that change.
And that change will affect southeastern Utah, possibly in a major way.
Presently, the world has nearly 450 nuclear reactors that are generating electric power.
There are nearly three dozen reactors under construction and almost 350 nuclear facilities are proposed or on the way to starting the building phase.
At present, none of the plants are under construction are in the United States although there are a number of companies proposing 30 more reactors that remain in the planning stage.
At present, there are 104 active electric generating nuclear plants in the U.S. The facilities supply 20 percent of the electrical power for the country, while coal continues to provide nearly 50 percent.
At present, the country's reactors consume more than 50 million tons of nuclear material per year.
Weight wise, the nuclear consumption figure may be small when compared to the generation of power by coal.
But the majority of the coal fueling America's power plants is produced domestically, while a lot of the material running nuclear reactors comes from outside the country.
Some of the uranium supplies come from friendly countries like Canada, Australia and South Africa.
But some also come from areas that are as volatile and, at times, unfriendly to the U.S. as many of the countries supplying oil.
The U.S. contains around 4 percent of the known uranium supplies, but operates one-fourth of the reactors in the world.
Therefore, demand outstrips domestic supply.
Consequently, the concept of the U.S. becoming independent energy wise through the use of nuclear power currently seems as unlikely as the country not having to import oil.
The first major push for nuclear material came in the 1940s and 1950s when most of the nation's mines were located in the western U.S.
A good example of empires built and lost based on uranium was the story of Charlie Steen.
The poor prospector/geologist found uranium in southeastern Utah and became a multi-millionaire.
In the process, the development of the yellow cake reserves changed the town of Moab forever.
However, the largest known U.S. deposit of yellow cake is in southern Virginia. The uranium is located under a farm owned by the same family for 200 years.
Discovered 30 years ago, the Virginia uranium deposit is estimated to contain enough reserves to run all the electrical nuclear power plants operating in the U.S. for two years.
Although Virginia has nuclear power plants and a processing facility located within its boundaries, the state has a law against mining nuclear materials.
The law passed by Virginal legislators in 1982 was apparently a reaction to the Three Mile Island incident.
At present the state will not even let the owner of the property do a study to see if mining the material is viable.
Statistics show that the consumption of oil in the world may already have passed the ability of the planets oil fields to supply enough to meet demand.
While the supposition is still in doubt, primarily due to the complexity of oil production and consumption, nuclear experts indicate that the production of nuclear materials for power plants is already behind the eight ball.
Presently, the world produces about 108 million pounds of usable material for processing per year. But the world consumes 70 million more pounds than the amount of material produced annually.
The shortfall is made up by using nuclear material from decommissioned weapons the U.S. and Russia have agreed to release. But the joint agreement and the number of weapons being decommissioned are finite.
New sources of nuclear material need to be found and mined to keep up with the status quo, not to mention the growth that will take place in the future.
The nuclear industry is not sitting still. The mining of yellow cake in the eastern part of Utah mostly died out decades ago, primarily due to falling prices and decreasing demand.
Just as coal reserves economically unmineable three generations ago are being tapped for today's energy needs, the sources of nuclear energy still remain locked away in sandstone.
Energy companies have been holding onto many of the inactive claims and buying up others.
The question may be when the boom for mining nuclear material will resurface on a major scale.
Editors note: Today's story is the first in a two-part series on nuclear power, its potential growth and how that might affect eastern Utah. Information sources include the U.S. Department of Energy and Heritage Foundation.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping (shown in photo) were the dominant players at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) conference, held this year in Bali, Indonesia from October 5-8. President Obama, who did not attend the event, sent a delegation led by Secretary of State John Kerry. Taking part in the APEC-2013 forum were business and political delegations from Japan, China, Malaysia, Russia, Australia, Brunei, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, Papua-New Guinea, Peru, the USA, Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea and Chile.
Minnie Chan, writing in the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post on October 10, noted of the growing Beijing-Moscow axis:
When President Xi Jinping met his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin at the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation (Apec) leaders meeting in Bali this week, both greeted each other like old friends.
"This is the fifth meeting we had during the year and it is strong evidence of the high level and uniqueness of China-Russia relations," Xi was quoted by Xinhua as telling Putin.
Just five weeks ago, Xi met Putin in St Petersburg at the G20 summit, during which China and Russia opposed a US proposal for military intervention in Syria after UN chemical weapons inspectors confirmed that hundreds of civilians were killed by the nerve gas sarin near the capital, Damascus, on August 21.
The past few months have witnessed major advances in Russian-Chinese joint ventures in the economic and military spheres.
In June, Rosneft, the oil giant owned by the Russian government and China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), the oil behemoth owned by the Chinese government, signed a $270-billion deal to supply China with oil over 25 years, an agreement that Putin hailed as "unprecedented."
The agreement was signed by Rosneft chief executive Igor Sechin and CNPC head Zhou Jiping in the presence of Putin and visiting Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli.
"An estimated value of the contract in current market parameters is absolutely unprecedented — 270 billion dollars," Putin told participants of the annual Saint Petersburg International Economic Forum.

The Orange County Sheriff's Office is looking for a man who they say committed armed robbery of a Chase Bank around 1 p.m. Tuesday.
After arriving at the Chase Bank at 12528 S. Orange Blossom Trail, deputies learned from witnesses that the suspect is a 6-foot-2-inch black male approximately in his late 20s. He was described as wearing a red long-sleeved shirt, dark pants, glasses, and a red, yellow and green beanie-style hat.
The suspect said he was armed after presenting a teller with a note demanding money. He then fled the scene heading south after taking an undisclosed amount of cash. No injuries were reported.
Anyone with information is asked to call CRIMELINE or the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

NYP's Ken Davidoff predicts Melky will sign with Mets
The New York Post's Ken Davidoff predicts that free-agent OF Melky Cabrera will eventually sign a one-year, $4 million deal with the Mets.
ESPN.com's Keith Law ranks Cabrera as the fifth best free-agent outfielder, behind BJ Upton, Michael Bourn, Josh Hamilton and Nick Swisher, saying:
"Cabrera's 2012 season looked like a severe statistical fluke; he was thriving almost entirely on a spike in his batting average on balls in play, with his lack of patience and power exactly where they were prior to his trade to San Francisco. He isn't a selective hitter but has good plate coverage. His ability to convert more of that contact into hits is what changed, or seemed to change, this season. However, his suspension for testosterone use throws his entire performance into doubt. Some teams will assume his performance boost was due to testosterone and others will look at the BABIP jump and figure he would have eventually come back to earth. He's a poor center fielder who's just average in left or right. But despite the PED and makeup questions, every team should be willing to give him a one-year deal, as even a return to his 2011 performance level would allow him to play every day for some clubs"
In a special report for ESPN.com, Jerry Crasnick surveyed 22 general managers, assistant GMs, advisers, scouting directors and talent evaluators for their opinions on seven questions that are likely to drive media coverage between now and New Year's Day.
In regards to Cabrera, how much money and how many years he will get as a free agent, most executives said they expect Cabrera to sign a one-year, make-good deal worth between $2 million and $10 million, plus incentives.
In a poll to MetsBlog on October 13, nearly 52 percent of voters said they would sign Cabrera to a one-year contract.
Matthew Cerrone, Lead Writer
In my view, the Giants essentially kicked Melky to the curb when they didn't add him to the World Series roster. Also, I lost count of how many people implied it was mostly because of his role in the clubhouse. So, it seems the Giants might not be a player for him any more.
Despite that, I've changed my tune on Melky. I was against it, but the more I think about it, especially on a one-year, $4 million deal, I think I'd do it if I were the Mets – depending on how other attempted acquisitions go this winter. I think Cabrera will be motivated. He's done well enough in New York City.
Worst case scenario: He's a bust, a headache and more trouble than he's worth, and so they cut him.
Best case scenario: He's motivated, hits and is a bargain.
To me, that's worth a $4 million gamble, especially if the team frees up money by trading off salary.

Love: the secret spice that goes into thousands of treats each year during the annual St. Vasilios Greek Orthodox Churchs Greek pastry and sweet bread sale.
Steven J. Kalamaras said it takes as much dedication and patience to make pastries as it does each required ingredient.
Its the way you put the ingredients together, and the syrup on the baklava, he said Friday, during the first day of the sale at the church. I used to make it for myself at home. Now we just buy from here and help the church out.
St. Vasilios, 502 Franklin St., hosts the two-day sale each December to raise funds for the salary of the small churchs part-time priest and other needs. A similar, one-day sale is held each spring.
Mr. Kalamaras, who is known as the baklava king at the sale, said he oversees the making of the classic Greek pastry with layers of filo dough and a walnut mixture, covered with honey syrup.
Other offerings include: kourambiethes, an almond holiday cookie with powdered sugar; flutes, rolled layers of filo dough and a walnut mixture dipped in honey syrup; kataifi, a shredded wheat pastry rolled in a walnut mixture and dipped in honey syrup; finikia, a walnut holiday cookie dipped in honey syrup; and koulourakia, a butter-twist cookie covered with sesame seeds.
Also for sale are spanakopita, a spinach pie made with layers of filo dough and spinach with a feta cheese mixture, and sweet bread, a braided loaf made with mahlepi, a spice made from kernels of fruit pits from a cherry and covered with sesame seeds.
The sale continues at 9 a.m. today until everything is sold out. Most items range from $1 to $2 each. One dozen koulourakia are $4, and the spanakopita are $16.
As one customer waited, he said he drops a few hundred bucks at the sale each year, but worried whether younger generations would carry on the tradition.
Mr. Kalamaras said the church has been trying to recruit younger members who may help with the sale. Ms. Thomas said some are away at college, and the churchs youth members are too young to help.
Lisa A. BonDurant, Watertown, said she feels the love and kindness from people who prepare the goodies and those who help organize the event, such as the Thomas family: Olga M., Samuel S., and Christina Athanasiou.
Its phenomenal, she said, looking at the piles of pastries as church members helped pack them in boxes. I get enough and I freeze them, and we get it Christmas morning.
Her favorite pastry is the finikia, but baklava and kourambiethes are not too far behind. As she explained how her husband recently died, she shed tears and was greeted with a hug from Olga Thomas.
Finikia was his favorite; wed eat that frozen, she said.
Mrs. BonDurant said shell have an extra piece for him this Christmas.

The NHL is at a crossroads.
Last night, Vancouver Canuck Alexandre Burrows encountered a unique situation with referee Stephane Auger where he was called for two highly-questionable penalties. Two penalties that he said were called intentionally.
''A ref came over to me and he said I made him look bad in Nashville on
the Smithson hit and he said he was going to get me back tonight,''
Burrows said to reporters after the game.
TSN's Bob McKenzie has the remainder of the postgame quotes, but suffice to say there is foul play afoot.
And while this is brewing up to be a major storm between the NHL, Vancouver organization, and officiating union, there is a greater problem that comes to light.
The objective of an NHL referee is to objectively manage a game, not just call penalties. This is a common mis-conception. A referee needs to keep the game moving and encourage even, fair play between the two competitors.
The officials are not supposed to be the stars of the game. They are not supposed to be major influences in the game. Most importantly, they are not supposed to be the deciding factor of an outcome.
Games should be decided by two teams who have equal opportunity to defeat one-another within the confines of the NHL rule book.
How many times in the past decade have we heard the adage, "the key to a winning team is a good power play and a good penalty kill." Or "special teams really made the difference with tonight's victory."
Why is that? Because officials have too much of a presence in the game. If penalties weren't so prevalent and inconsistent, than there would be more focus on 5-on-5 and less need for your special teams to carry you through a game.
Now, if you add personal vendetta's and biased into that mix of inconsistency, you have two on-ice individuals who can dictate a game as they see fit regardless of the competitors.
Is that the nature of the greatest team sport on earth?
When disgraced NBA referee Tim Donaghy conducted a recent interview, he explained the biases amongst officials in the NBA and their tendencies to officiate based on the teams and players. Everybody discredited him, just as they did Jose Canseco.
An A-Rod, Andy Pettite, and most recently Mark McGwire later, he doesn't seem so outrageous.
While the officials are at fault for looking to become larger than the game itself, the true onus lies with the NHL.
Ridiculous rule changes and additional officials on the ice created nothing more than a micro-managed shell of the game. Perhaps Commissioner Gary Bettman, a former NBA executive, likes how a basketball game stops every two minutes for a foul, but the strength of the NHL is the speed and flow of the game.
All officials do now is prohibit that.
The rules also made officiating unreasonable. If a stick is parallel to the ice it's a hook? If two players smack sticks and one of them breaks, it's slashing?
Let's be realistic here.
When you have players looking around for who did what and throwing their hands up in the to avoid a penalty, the product is not only embarassing, but it is fundamentally wrong.
Everyone wanted to eliminate hooking, holding, clutching, stickwork and general obstruction, but in reality, there were already penalties in place for these infractions.
They were called: hooking, holding, slasing, and interference.
The problem wasn't the penalties, but the poor quality of official who chose to "interpret" penalties rather than call them by the book.
The NHL needs to look at hockey from the late 70's through the 80's for what the on-ice product should look like. One referee. Reasonable penalties. A fast free-flowing game built on both finesse and grit.
Now as soon as you move your hand off of your stick, it's holding, even if the play isn't interrupted.
Hopefully this incident will prompt a re-evaluation by the league and its officiating policies, but in all likelihood, this will just lead to further empowerment of the officiating union and discipline to Burrows for his comments.

AKRON -- Two Akron police officers injured in an early morning crash remain hospitalized but do not have life threatening injuries according to a department spokesman.
The two officers were hurt around 5:30 a.m. this morning while responding to a burglary call.
According to Lt. Rick Edwards, the officers were southbound on East Avenue when a minivan headed northbound attempted to turn left onto Iona Avenue in front of the cruiser.
A father and son in the van were also taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The incident remains under investigation.
The officers' names are being withheld pending the notification of family. The driver of the police cruiser is a six year veteran. The passenger has been on the force for less than a year.

This morning I drove east to the Triangle to photograph a friend from high school and her family. I haven't seen Megan in forevs, but she was just as sweet and funny as I remembered her. She has the two sweetest men in her life. Benji (the short one) and Brett. I put some more pictures over on my brand spankin new photography blog. You can check it out at mandypowers.com. Is it weird that having my actual name as my domain pleases me to no end? It really does.
I'm trying to build my portfolio, as they say, and so right now there's not much to see over at the other site. Speaking of that, if you're near me (North Carolina) and want some free photos, please get in touch! I'm really learning so much from taking pictures of people who aren't my immediate family. And I've learned that I LOVE taking pictures of people. So unpredictable and spontaneous and FUN! Like today, little Benji was not giving up the smile. Although I love the pictures I got, and I think his family will too, I know I need a few more tricks up my sleeves for the toddler set.
Many thanks to Megan and Brett and Benji for letting me come play with them today. Also, thanks for the Skittles and the fresh-from-the-oven pumpkin chocolate chip bread. I think I'll go have a slice right now.

Nearly $500,000 in budgeted personnel and programs are on the chopping block in the Watertown City School District.
Officials will inform staff members about layoffs and program cuts through today.
Weve made some decisions, Superintendent Terry N. Fralick said Monday. Until we tell the folks today and tomorrow whats happening, I dont want to share anything.
Mr. Fralick began meeting Monday with those whose jobs or programs will be cut. He said the number of retirement announcements is higher than the district initially predicted, but he did not comment on how many positions or programs would be cut from next years budget.
The district is trimming about $476,000 more in expenses, including $450,000 in personnel, than it originally planned to reduce the blow of a possible depleted fund balance for the 2014-15 school year. Mr. Fralick announced the cuts to staffing, programs and equipment at the Board of Education meeting April 10, when members approved a $66.2 million budget.
According to a fund balance worksheet provided at a Board of Education meeting in late March, the district expected to have $3,308,932 in the undesignated fund balance for the 2013-14 school year. Although the unreserved fund balance is expected to increase to $10.3 million by the beginning of July 2014, the district expected to spend $15 million to keep the tax levy low. That would leave the district $4.7 million in debt.
At that meeting, Mr. Fralick said the district might have to cut $1 million in staff and programs to close the budget gap.
The district had to eliminate 55 positions a few years ago. According to a recent budget presentation, the district has 45 fewer employees than it did in March 2009.
Dianne H. Loonan, president of the teachers union, the Watertown Education Association, did not return a phone message left at her home Monday.
I guess I can tell you that anytime there is a cut on the personnel, the ultimate effect is on the students, Mrs. Loonan said in an interview last week.

OGDENSBURG Investigators are still searching for the cause of a Monday night fire that damaged the Stonefence Resort Motel, 7191 Route 37.
Morristown and Ogdensburg fire departments initially responded to a report of a boiler fire at 9:30 p.m. However, firefighters said Tuesday that the cause of the blaze may have been faulty electrical wires.
Morristown Fire Chief Kevin J. Crosby said he believes the fire started near an electrical distribution center in a basement crawl space. Investigators were still combing the scene Tuesday.
When firefighters arrived shortly after 9 p.m., heavy smoked exuded from the building as fire traveled through the walls of several adjoining rooms.
We encountered heavy fire and smoke in the basement and first floors of the building, Mr. Crosby said. There was moderate fire damage done to four rooms (one room upstairs, three rooms downstairs) located in the middle of the unit. The fire damage was concentrated in the center of the building at a wall that was shared with the basement through the second floor.
Ogdensburg firefighters applied water through the front of the building, with Morristown firefighters sending attack teams and lines into the basement and to the back of the building.
Firefighters from multiple departments were able to contain the blaze before it spread to the rest of the building, Mr. Crosby said. He said without firefighters rapid, aggressive response, it would have been much worse.
This is a very large wooden building, and we had a major fire when we arrived, he said. These guys went at it with all they had and saved most of the building.
Morristown Volunteer Fire Department was assisted by Ogdensburg firefighters and volunteer departments from Brier Hill, Heuvelton, Lisbon and Rensselaer Falls, as well as the Ogdensburg Volunteer Rescue Squad, National Grid, St. Lawrence Gas and the state Department of Transportation.
A portion of Route 37 was closed for several hours, while multiple departments delivered water to help put out the fire.
The fire took over five hours to put out, Mr. Crosby said.
Todd D. Meseck, of Norwich, was staying alone in Room 105 when the fire started. He had taken a sleep aid but was awoken by the smell of smoke.
All I remember is dreaming and smelling smoke in the dream, he said. I woke up, and was extremely confused. I had no idea where I was or what was happening.
Mr. Meseck said he staggered out the back door of his hotel suite and onto the back deck when he realized the building was on fire.
My senses started to come to me, and I ran to the lobby, he said.
Mr. Meseck informed the front desk clerk, Donna Mae Daum, about the smoke. Mrs. Daum said she made sure people exited the lobby and the rest of the motel.
Another guest in Room 104 also exited the motel safely in time, Mr. Meseck said.
The hotels other roughly six guests were staying in four other buildings on the resort, and were unaffected by the smoke and flames.
In a message on Facebook, Simplicity Restaurant owner Trevor R. Brunet said while his restaurant did not catch fire, the smoke caused damage to the restaurants heating and electrical systems. The restaurant will remain closed for the time being.
A representative of the hotel said Tuesday that the resorts other four buildings will remain open while the building is repaired. The exact cost of the repairs to the motel has not yet been determined.
