VIDEO: Blades beat Gwinnett again in game featuring goalie fight
ESTERO - There was a penalty shot goal, an all-out brawl including a fight between the two goalies and a victory by the home team. In other words, if Wednesday night's Florida Everblades 6-2 victory over the Gwinnett Gladiators was your first-ever hockey game, you left with a smile on your face.
The Everblades thrilled the crowd of 5,769 in the final home game of the calendar year, taking command early and never relinquishing the lead as they earned their second straight victory over last place Gwinnett. Florida heads into a four-day holiday break having won back-to-back games, and sits just three points behind Greenville for the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference.
With the Everblades up 4-2 at the 12:39 mark of the second period, a typical hockey fight between Florida's Jared Staal and Gwinnett's Paul Flache broke out near the boards behind Florida's goal. When the game's officials went to break it up, Florida's Ethan Graham and Drew Larman engaged in fights with Gwinnett's Danick Paquette and Sam Roberts, respectively.
As the two fights raged on, Graham fell to the ice and had his head repeatedly slammed down by Paquette. With the officials tied up with Staal and Flache, Florida goalie Bobby Goepfert intervened, leaving the crease to check Paquette into the boards. This action caught the attention of Gwinnett goalie Billy Sauer, who left his crease and skated into the fracas to challenge Goepfert.
"I don't really know what started it I just looked over and saw Paquette, who is the Sean Avery of our league, going at Graham when he clearly didn't want to fight," Goepfert said. "I did what any teammate would do and defended our guy."
With the crowd on its feet, the two goalies duked it out near center ice, where Goepfert eventually got the best of Sauer.
"It's not the size of the dog…," joked the 5-foot-10 Goepfert after besting the 6-foot-2 Sauer. "But more importantly the game went well and we got a big win going into the break."
The fight resulted in a combined total of 65 penalty minutes, including match penalties for Goepfert and Sauer.
Because Paquette and Flache were both assessed double minor penalties, the Everblades came out of the brawl with a 5-on-3 advantage. Florida immediately converted, taking a 5-2 lead at the 12:49 mark of the period on a goal by Alexandre Imbeault.
Staal scored with 0.4 seconds remaining in the game to give Florida the final 6-2 advantage.

how do you color a grayscale image ?
This video is in three parts (three separate videos). It starts with the sketch, going to grayscale, and then coloring it.
It isn't really a tutorial like: do this, then this, then this...
He tells and shows you what he does, and you can draw your own conclusions on what you want to do from there.
He is using Corel Painter, even if you don't have it, the same effect can be achieved in other programs, you will just have to mess around with the brushes and properties of them first.
I hope this helped at least a little bit!
This is a wonderful work! *WWW*

Superintendent Brian Binggeli addresses the Brevard County School Board on Tuesday night. The board voted to place a half-cent sales tax on the November 2014 ballot.

Matt Reed column: "Save us, Bill Nelson
Tony Cicarella
Bill Nelson, a moderate? You are seriously joking me. This man is a partisan all the way and always votes the party line. I have written him several times and the canned responses never address my issue but regurgitate the leftist talking points that he marches to. He is a prime example of why we need term limits, as it seems the majority of voters are too foolish to vote him out. He is just another career politician.
Fred D. Bartleson, Jr.
I'm a moderate Republican, but I like Bill, and will support him and any other Democrat in order to rid this country of the tea party far-right extremists.
Vernon Densler
Compared to the progressives who are ruining our country, he is a moderate, but he is still very liberal. The majority of this country are true moderates and we need a party to support real moderate views. So far, the only party that is close to that is The Centrist Movement, and hopefully it gets some traction. Both of our current parties are corrupt and worthless.
Story: "School Board backs putting half-cent sales tax on ballot"
John Byron
In the last go-around, the members of the School Board were MIA. A political issue, these elected officials hid in the weeds, putting all the responsibility for getting the tax initiative passed on the superintendent, though he is forbidden to advocate and could only present facts (which he did very well in many open meetings with citizens). School Board members couldn't be bothered to actually develop and mount a campaign to pass the levy, and it sank like a rock. This time, let's see if these advocates of the tax overcome their political cowardice and actually work to get the initiative passed. Education is like everything else - you get what you pay for. Let's see if School Board members can and will make that case to the voters and get this needed levy approved.
Marcus Hochman
Our vote will depend on what argument you are willing to have after the sales tax vote. Do you want to argue what needs to be cut first, or do you want to argue what to fix first? I know which one I want to argue for. What about you Brevard County?
Lalania Corces
I voted yes last time, but not again. Thank you, School Board, for opening my naive eyes to see that giving you any more money would be a complete waste. Until I see a board that puts children and teachers first, you will not have my vote. I have not forgotten how your "surprise" deficit somehow got smaller and smaller than originally reported, nor I have I forgotten that magic "surprise" surplus you ended up with. I also have not forgotten the many times it was stated schools would be closing no matter the financial situation. Remember? It was about capacity? Flawed, incorrect data about current capacity and estimated growth.
Story: "Brevard breaks class-size law on purpose"
L. Vanessa Moore
This makes me so angry. My daughter has 38 students in her physics honors class and 32 students in her Algebra 2 honors class. The teachers are so overwhelmed with so many students the students are not able to get individual help in class. The statement by Cyndi Van Meter, Brevard's associate superintendent for curriculum and instruction - "But it didn't harm children. The approach we took this year was much less painful to the children and the teachers in the school" - is ludicrous. There are other ways to cut back and save on money that isn't at the expense of the students. The school district's justification of what they are doing is preposterous, and they should be held accountable for their actions.
Peter Fusscas
My understanding is that it was cheaper to break the rules than to maintain small class sizes. As you well know, legislation is not always rational. I seem to recall there was public discussion on breaking class-size requirements, so this comes as no surprise, especially when the penalty does not exceed compliance.
Julie Locke Stewart
I have been told by several principals that it is cheaper to pay the fine than to pay an extra teacher. It's appalling that they are putting a number on our kids, and then going with the cheaper option.
Matt Reed column: "Follow label, save our lagoon"
Vince Lamb
Asking people to comply with a fertilizer ordinance that includes a rainy season ban and prohibits phosphorous without soil testing does not seem like a heavy burden. The Indian River Lagoon is dying from excessive nutrients, and dramatic action is needed to reduce the nutrients immediately. As Matt's personal experience indicates, lawns fertilized in April or May with slow-release nitrogen will stay very green through the rainy season. Reducing the impact of residential fertilizer will not be enough to restore the lagoon to healthy conditions, but this represents an important step in the process.
Stephen Chalmers
Whether you agree with Matt Reed or not on a strong or weak fertilizer ordinance, he has modified his lawn maintenance program in the right direction. Should we all do the same, it will help. Give some care to what you are doing, as Matt did when he saw the problem, and take action, strong or weak, in your yard.

Reviews for Next Generation Focus Inc
I have been working with NFG for the last year and I am absolutely impressed with the program. Amy does a wonderful job of reaching out to the community and providing a tutoring service for children. The tutors and the curriculum are top notch!
Next Generation Focus is a wonderful program that provides low income children the opportunity to receive quality tutoring. The staff and the volunteers are very committed to making a difference in the lives of all the students that pass through the program. I am glad to be part of the program and cherish the chance to work with such a special organization.

I have been involved with Next Generation Focus for three years. The organization has not only provided me with positive role models who care about their community, but I can also see the difference it is making in the lives of the students involved. NGF helps prepare high schoolers for leadership roles, gives kids more self-esteem and boosts their performance in school, and serves as a resource for parents to connect with educators and become invested in their children's education.
I have been watching how Next Generation Focus serves children and youth in Forsyth County for close to 2 years. I have been amazed at their enthusiasm and dedication to helping children learn. This is a very organized non-profit company and they are making a difference!
This is my first year at NGF and I already feel like I am part of the family. It is a great organization that promotes the value of education to students who may be having difficulty keeping up in school. Not only does it offer math and english help but also science, arts and piano, available for all grades. It has a friendly atmosphere in which not only the students learn, but also the mentors, all while having fun!
NGF invests heavily in the youth that it serves! The tutors are dedicated and really care about each and every student. Amy makes sure that the teen volunteers grow in their skills as well, it is a winning solution for everyone involved. It is great to see how the students grow and begin to catch up in their curriculums. These are kids who can't afford private tutors and would struggle without the help of NGF.
The energy I have witnessed from the Saturday teens and teachers volunteering their time, is nothing short of amazing! From the wonderful leadership of Amy Sol to all the great people she surrounds herself with, they are making great things happen for kids who need it the most. The greatest fun is to the see the excited kids who come in each Saturday morning to LEARN - they really like the environment and it shows in the effort they put into their work. Couple that with the appreciation of parents who are so grateful for the their children receiving the help they need so much, but wouldn't otherwise be able to afford. It is my joy to be part of Next Generation Focus and SmarterMe Saturdays!

I've been with NGF since the very beginning and still don't realize the full impact that NGF has on the community. NGF invests in our youth, from the teen tutors to the children that they tutor. That they go on to become leaders and contributors to society is NGF's legacy. Right now, our tutors from five years ago are graduating college, while the children they tutored are matriculating at middle and high school. I'm confident they will enter society as bright, inspirational lights.
NGF has also focused on helping the parents, and the parents have come together to support NGF as well. They recently made and sold over 500 hot, delicious tamales to help raise funds for NGF. It's wonderful to see the community - parents, volunteers, professional, businesses - support NGF.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
This is my second year volunteering for NGF. It is a truly amazing, wonderful program. I love waking up on Saturday mornings to meet my group of kids and teach them everything they need to be prepared in school. Not only does this program provide the kids with help in school, but teaches them life lessons. As tutors, we act as their mentors and role models in life. Making creative activities and telling them stories makes me love what I do, and I would encourage everyone to join in to making this program bigger and better!
NGF A unique program designed to meet the needs of those children most likely to "slip through the
cracks". The volunteers include adults and students in High School and Middle School. What a
great experience for these young people. Possibly the next generation teachers gaining hands
on real life situations. Amy Sol , program director, is dedicated to finding methods to help
these children succeed in academics. Language barriers, reading skills, math skills and social
skills are those areas that this program endeavors to address. Some of these children lack
exposure to hands on science. Amy addressed this need by asking groups, professionals,
and other volunteers to come once a month and present hands on science experiences.
A wonderful program meeting basic skills, raising self-esteem, for real children in our schools.
Judy Green Volunteer science program
NGF is a wonderful program that helps our youth excel. Amy Sol is very dedicated in all her endeavors with this program. I have seen her personally go above and beyond, sacrificing her own personal time off to make sure this program is continually running smoothly. She truly loves these children and wants them to have the same advantage any other child does to get a better education.

Wow, that's an awesome record. There are only 4 schools that we played more than once that have a winning record against us:
Only one of these, USC, is still a major program.
Tha's how you get to be the winningest program of all time.

I want a piece of the Tar Heels. They're only ahead in the first place because of Lawrence Taylor's dirty hit on Wangler.
I'm with you on that one.
Of the ones that still have football teams, wouldn't you like to see us play almost all of them?
I'll never rest until we're 2-1 over the Cleveland Athletic Club.
Screw these neutral site games. The only neutral site games I want Michigan in are the B1G Championship Game, good bowl games and FBS National Championship Playoff.
I could see playing a game against UMass in Foxboro instead of UConn's low capacity stadium. Oh wait, we've tried that already? Anyway, if a team with a small stadium (40K or less) was willing to play a home and home, but have their home game in a larger venue, I guess that'd be ok, and better than playing on a field that wouldn't accomodate our fan base.
I've said this before in a thread similar to this one, but I like seeing Michigan going and playing in new places such as ROAD games with non-conference teams. I think It's kind of neat for lack of a better word.
Neutral site games are the absolute worst. Terrible atmosphere, neither here nor there. Too quiet. Might as well just play the game in a shopping-male. One of the best parts of the college game is the local atmospheres.
Those shopping-males are down right blah.
Until they let all major conference champions into a bona fide playoff system, scheduling games like this is playoff suicide. Fans here are already referring to the Big Ten schedule as "brutal," but those same fans want to see matchups like the one this week. Meanwhile, the teams that scheduled three or four tomato cans are going to get the limited berths currently available.
to play real teams. i'd so much rather watch games that mean something, rather than smack around a hapless emu team. yawn... who cares?
As long as DB doesn't consider Utah to be "a notch above some of the things we've done in the past" I will be pleased. There must be a way to increase revenue from these big games that is lost by not having them at the Big House.
Utah has been pretty good, and the move to the Pac-12 has been pretty good for their recruiting. Its a whole hell of a lot better than playing UMass, or as I like to call it umASS. Lets say that our four non-conference games are :
Utah, Notre Dame, Central Michigan, and Ole Miss. That, to me, is pretty good and a heck of a lot better than playing all cupcakes.
The 4 teams you mentioned have the potential to be cupcakes themselves depending on where they are in their life cycles. Utah is on the rise but in a few years if they step up big in the PAC12 they might have to deal with a coaching change if their coach is poached. ND is ND - didnt we hand them their worst losses in program history within the past decade? They might be on a new coach in a few years too. Any directional school is usually a cupcake, and Ole Miss blows and has blown for several years now.
I'd love to see this as a nonconf if SOS is part of the playoff equation:
Notre Dame (for the tradition of playing them), Navy or Army to give a service academy some love, a top SEC school - USC, GA, FL, LSU, Bama, or Ark; and a good Big 12 school - Tex, Ok, Ok state.
Also, I'd love to see us play at hawaii for the extra game since you can schedule a 13th game if you play there, just so I'd have an excuse to travel to Hawaii.
I would love to go back to the days of UM playing better non-cons. I can remember days of playing ND and sometimes 2 other teams from big conferences. Seeing ND and 3 body bag games gets kind of boring. The only thing that sucks is when you sign a deal with a team so far out in the future, and then 8 years later when the game actually rolls around they stink. I guess you could stick to playing only truly elite programs, something Ohio has actually done pretty well when you consider their home and homes with USC, Texas, Miami (YTM), and Virginia Tech and Oklahoma in future years. However, we are all too familiar that even that can go wrong (see Mich 2008-2010, Oklahoma 1994-1999, Texas in 2010, Ohio last year, et al.)
I dont mind Nuetral site games at all.....I kind of wish each year a power conference team could host a huge game remotely close to home.
I mean we have games in Dallas, Atlanta.....why not have a Big 10 team play at Lucas Oil/Ford Field for an opener and a pac 12 team play a huge game in Seattle at their stadium up there.
If anything at least some of the major college teams would be at least willing to play in huge nonconference games.
I wouldn't mind a neutral site game if it was closer than Dallas to our home base. Iowa is opening its schedule at Soldier Field in Chicago this year, there's a ton of UM Alums in Chicago, so that would be nice if they played a neutral site game in IL. Ford Field would also work, it'd be like the hockey games at the Joe. Having the game closer to the B1G footprint would allow us to make it more like a home game atmosphere than Jerryworld is going to have tomorrow.
Home and home with Georgia and home and home with LSU, arguably the biggest name opponent Michigan has never ever played.
I would love to see a home and home with Georgia. I've been down to Athens for a game and the entire experience is top notch. It would be awesome to see them in Ann Arbor!
The Volunteers are 1up on us I believe and I have lots of buddies whos faces id love to shove a W in
We are ahead of Tenn. in head to hea matchups. They beat us in a bowl game but Charles beat Peyton, and that has way way way more meaning to both sides than the stupid bowl game that I cant even recall. Tenn is STILL mad about that Heisman.
I'm all for this, as long as DB doesn't consider the likes of Oregon State or Colorado to be "high-profile." Get Georgia or FSU up here. I'd love to see a game under the lights against them.
would be AWESOME....
Michigan will soon announce a neutral-site game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. The following season the Wolverines will face off against the Irish National Rugby team on the surface of the moon.
Brand name teams without premiere opponents already scheduled in 2017-2019:
USC (Texas in 17/18 but no one in 19/20. Awesome home-and-home if it could be scheduled to replace ND the first of those years.)
UCLA is also free in all those years.
In the SEC, Arkansas, Georgia, and Tennessee all have 2018-19 openings.
In the ACC, Clemson, Miami, Virginia Tech, and (maybe) FSU are available.
The two big guns in the Big 12 are full up, but Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, and West Virginia have space.
BYU is probably always open to scheduling home-and-homes given the issues with being an independent. (Idaho would probably be willing to play a 3-1 home-away split given all the issues they're going to have scheduling, but, um, pass.)
In my mind, USC is perfect except the years don't align right for ND, so we'd need a one-off in 2018 (or two premiere games in 2019.)
Any of the SEC schools, Clemson, or FSU would be my preferred if USC doesn't work. If I were going to bet, I'd say either Tennessee or BYU in 2018-2019.
If we couldn't get a home and home with USC and had to do a neutral site, where would you want to see it? Do you think we'd be back in Jerryworld? or split the difference geographically and play them at Mile High in Denver? Or somewhere else I am not thinking of at the moment?
I love the strategy and hope we see some games in California. U of M has a huge alumni base here, particularly in the SF Bay Area and thebay area has one of the best football high schools in CA (De La Salle High where Amani Toomer went). In CA I'd like to see games against Stanford and USC.
Elsewhere Tennessee, Florida State, and Texas are on my wish list. Excellent recruting states after we fill up with the best that the midwest has to offer.
I have a long running dispute with my college roommate/best man with Tennessee football so they're probably my #1 ooc game followed by
Arizona State
1. Michigan has a two-year break in the Notre Dame series in 2018/19. UM tried to get Oklahoma for those seasons in a home-and-home series, but OU already has LSU those two seasons.
2. If Brandon is talking about releasing schedules out to 2018, consider the possibility of another neutral site game sometime in that time frame. Stephen Ross (major UM contributor and owner of the Dolphins) has indicated he'd like to see Michigan play a game in Miami. With ND on the schedule thru 2017, there is a possibility that neutral site game could be in 2018. Michigan also has two open dates in 2016 (home game with Colorado and road game with ND is already on schedule).
3. The Michigan-Notre Dame series agreement allows either school to cancel or modify the series with a four-year advance notice. Right now, Michigan's home/away schedule is uneven in that the Wolverines play ND, Nebraska and Ohio State all at home or all on the road at least thru 2016. In 2015/6, Wisconsin replaces Penn State and UW goes on the same rotation as those three other teams. UM plays them all four of them at home in 2015 and all on the road in 2016.
This leaves open the possibility that the ND series will be cancelled starting in 2017 with another major home-and-home opponent replacing them that year. This opponent would be one that Michigan would play on the road in 2017 (Nebraska and Ohio State are home games that year) and in Ann Arbor in 2018 (when UN-L and OSU are on the road) in order to "balance" the overall home/away schedule.
4. The Big Ten schedules for 2017/8 haven't been released, so we don't know if the scheduling imbalance is going to continue those seasons. Notre Dame doesn't seem to be willing to move the timing of the games because ND wants to play USC and UM one home/one away each season.
5. The Big Ten has opted not to play nine conference games and I assume Brandon is working on that assumption in putting together the non-conference schedule.
6. Based on the future published schedules, Michigan will only play seven home game each season from 2013 thru 2016. In past year, UM has played alternating season of seven and eight games, so this might be a trend.
Keep in mind that Bill Martin was reponsible for scheduling the home-and-home with UConn in 2013. Brandon is responsible for the home-and-home with Utah which ensure the 2015 season will have only seven home games. UM plays ND on the road in 2014 and 2016. Will Brandon be willing to cap Michigan at seven home games in order to bring in better opponents? Keep in mind that UM was one of the B10 teams supporting a nine-game conference schedule (which would have also capped UM at seven home games per year), so it's certainly possible.
If Notre Dame is dropped in 2017 (that would have been a home game for Michigan) and replaced by another major program (with that game on the road to balance the schedule), then UM would have seven home games that year and probably in 2018.
7. Despite not being part of the national conversation at season's end for almost 20 years, Notre Dame is still the #1 brand in college football and if there's anything Brandon knows, it's marketing. He has to know that ESPN will hype ND in the pre-season and any UM-ND game is going to get big ratings and will be heavily promoted by that network and ABC (plus NBC). As the Under the Lights game shows last year, you also attract the crowds (attendance 114,804--and yes, I know it was also a big deal because it was played at night, Desmond Howard was honored, etc.)
So cancelling out on the Notre Dame series might be a difficult proposition. But if he does do it, Brandon will have to secure a program with a similar amount of "buzz" for the networks, the lease holders on the stadium boxes, people who buy PSLs, etc. That's especially vital if Michigan is capped at seven home games per season because it means the relative "value per game" has to be better than when there are eight home games.
The number brand in college football is whomever is the dominant team now. ND was king when both of Catholic grandfathers cheered them on in the 40's. It isn't now.
Why do I fear we'll soon be pining for the good ol' days when tix for top games were only $95?
Until I see a home and home set up with Georgia (who has open dates in 2016 just like we do) or LSU, USC, OK or other programs on that level, it's all smoke and hoohah. When DB says "that will be a notch above some of the things we've done in the past" he's leaving a hole big enough that BWC and Ondre could fit through after Thanksgiving dinner. DB's intentionally leading us to think "Ooooo goody, finally a home-and-home against LSU" when in reality he means single home games against Tulsa or Memphis or Colorado St.
Michigan get U Conn to play at Ford Field. Work on it Mr. Noid. Beer and MEEECCCHHHEEEGAN. That would work.
Only if UConn's the home team. I'd never tolerate giving up a home game at the Big House.
For me, the ideal 4 game nonconference schedule would be as follows:
1: Tune up game against in-state MAC school.
2: Notre Dame
3: Big Name prestige program (USC, Alabama, Oklahoma, Texas or new rich such as Oregon.
4: Mid-level BCS opponent or solid mid-major program (think Virginia/UCLA or SDSU/Air Force).
Brandon can talk all he wants about aggressive schedule making but scheduling that game is completely indefensible.
this year's schedule is probably the toughest we should have....
no need to go all out on marketing. Look at what happened to ND...their talent level dropped as the SEC started becoming dominant on recruiting while ND's schedule remained tough year in and year out.
In my opinion we need atleast 2 gimme games in a year.
gets very good recruiting classes, though they seem to have come down a bit.
They have two problems:
a) coaching talent (and indecisiveness around who is the qb)
b) not in a conference: no guranteed path to a major bowl and no interim goals (like win the division or conference) to keep them focused after early season losses
Brandon showed a lot of faith and vision when he scheduled Bama, even before the Hoke resurgence at UM. DB can be a little maddening sometimes with his marketing, uniform innovations, etc., but you gotta love his faith and vision.

I picked up the pace on my cross country adventure and didn't stop much for a few days, but I found some random interesting sites I'd like to share here.
I picked up the pace on my cross country adventure and didn't stop much for a few days, but I found some random interesting sites I'd like to share here.
I have very little to say about these at the moment…just, enjoy!
When checking into my hotel in Montana, I was struck by how busy the town was, and asked the clerk at the hotel what was going on. She said it was because of the oil boom in Williston, North Dakota, so after much hemming and hawing, I decided to go out of my way to check it out a bit the next day. Pretty interesting stuff going on there. Google it for a good read or two.
I've been looking forward to crossing South Dakota again ever since I did it in 2010. I forgot how empty it was for much of the state when driving from east to west, but I saw plenty of interesting things in the state, and was glad that I returned.
Alright, enough of the movie quotes. Iowa was a pretty interesting place. As imagined, there were massive amounts of corn plants and overall it was a very agricultural landscape.
If it weren't for Detroit's issues, I'm sure you'd all head much more about St Louis, Missouri, and East St Louis, Illinois. There's some interesting tourist sports in St Louis, but it doesn't take you going very far to find massive swaths of blight and abandonment. You can tell it was a very vibrant city, but I don't know what's going to happen now.
US Route 50 is one of the original roads from the US Highway system, and I find it fascinating, even though Route 66 gets all the publicity. Some day I might drive the whole thing…although some of it is divided highway with exits now, and I don't even like going on those roads.
It really seems like all of the activity is by the interstates and on the edges of the towns…gas stations, hotels, restaurants…none of them busy in the center of town.
Here are some photos from on and near Route 50 in Virginia, West Virginia, and Ohio.
I was in Wichita, Kansas for a few days. I was too busy being the Best Man for my brother's wedding to do much photography, but I did get this shot of the footbridge and "Keeper of the Plains" sculpture where the Arkansas River and Little Arkansas River meet, along what they call "Water Walk".
I finally spent some time in Cleveland, Ohio. I have a great interest in the rust belt, and scenes from the American Industrial Revolution and the heyday of American industry, so Cleveland has been on my list for a while. There's some beautiful architecture and some interesting sights to behold.
I visited Chicago for a night, and it was mostly a social visit with my cousin, but I did get a bit of photography in. I decided to call this post Chicagoland instead of Chicago just so I could get the picture of Gary, Indiana in without making another post.

Deer antler found on beach believed to be 6,000 years old
A DEER antler found by a Tywyn family could be 6,000 years old, experts have suggested. Tabitha and Samuel Kendall, aged eight and nine, were with their dad Mark, when they discovered the antler while exploring the ancient forest uncovered on the beach south of Tywyn after the recent high tide.
Prof Henry Lamb, of Aberystwyth University, said he believed that the antler belonged to a red deer.
He added: "It's the base of an antler, which looks like it may have come from quite a substantial stag." In January 1919, the Cambrian News reported on a similar find of deer antlers on the beach. The article said:
"The recent discovery of a pair of fine antlers of the Carw or red deer on Towyn low water line by Mr Williams of Cadvan House taken in conjunction with similar antlers, bones, etc, previously found by Mr W C Kettle on the same shore level at a quarter of a mile distance northwards, are especially interesting as bearing on the question of the irruption of the sea, known in legendary lore as the submergence of Cantref y Gwaelod in the times of Gwyddno Garanhir, Prince of Meirionydd, in the fifth century.
"On referring to the keeper of geology and palaeontology British Museum, a courteous reply was received to the following effect: The specimens you send are two portions of antlers of red deer, and part of pelvis either of large deer or small ox. "The submerged forest at Towyn evidently corresponds with that at Barmouth from which five antlers of red deer have been obtained.
"Unfortunately the bones do not fix any definite date and the deposit may well belong to the historic period."
The article suggested that the deer had become exhausted from swimming and a letter in response to the article suggested the deer were caught in a sudden irruption of the sea, or that the deer were attracted to the shoreline in search of a drink."

Glenn Beck, whose popularity has skyrocketed this year thanks to his television show on Fox News and radio program, held a rally over the weekend that the conservative commenter estimated drew close to 400,000 attendees.
The Restoring Honor rally could prove to be a defining moment in Beck's ongoing career and may have struck a chord with Americans who are more religious in nature.
During the rally Beck said that the country "for too long had wandered in the darkness" and that the potential answer would be that more Americans need to "turn back to God."
A piece by columnist Ross Douthat was featured in the Monday edition of The New York Times and remarked that the rally carried a more religious tone, and that Beck may be a much more powerful voice than some realized.
"To this rally-goer, though, the most striking thing about 'Restoring Honor' was the way the pageant effortlessly tapped into the same rich vein of identity politics that has given us figures as diverse as Palin and Howard Dean, George W. Bush and Barack Obama but did so, somehow, without advancing any explicitly political agenda," wrote Douthat.

Superwhites Full of Bottle
On April 21-22, Slow Food and the Friuli Venezia-Giulia Regional Authority organized the second edition of the Superwhites. The event was again a success with over 1,250 people in attendance. On Saturday, New York's Italian Wine Merchants hosted four taste workshops that celebrated the great wines of Friuli with the best foods of the US and Italy. In one, Fred Plotkin, author of La Terra Fortunata, the Splendid Wine and Food of Friuli Venezia-Giulia (available in bookstores after next week) skillfully communicated the special connection Friulans feel to their food and wine.Miles Cahn of Coach Farm Dairy conducted a special workshop that featured his famous goat cheeses and how they combine so well with white wine. Dave Pasternak, chef at New York's Esca, introduced participants to the Italian tradition of crudo using local New York fish. Finally, many of the great cured meats of Friuli were tasted at the last two workshops.On Sunday April 22, over 1200 people walked through the doors of the Puck Building, where 40 Friulan producers served their wines. Seen Lippert and Mona Talbott laid on a fabulous buffet including spectacular porchetta sandwiches and organic produce from the US. No one left the Puck Building hungry or lacking information about the US and Friulan food heritage. Among the 1,200 participants were more than 100 culinary students who were given free admission to the event. The Puck Building was also venue to three workshops - Aromatherapy (a tasting that explained how to combine white wines with spices), Foie Gras and Wine and Prosciutto from Friuli Next year the Friulans plan to be back in NYC, so reserve your tickets soon for 2002!

10 Creative Ways to Kick your Hangover. ~ Jolee McBreen
Many of us – at some point in our lives, have probably had one too many. Or four too many. In any case, a hangover is never a welcome visitor, but sometimes he can't be stopped.
With summer upon us I've notice the ever more present itch to let our hair down. School's out for most, we're being invited to countless weddings and barbeques; holidays generally come with the excuse to eat and drink too much. Or if you're me and it's just another Friday morning, you could find yourself in need of some assistance.
So here's a list of some creative and healthy ways to kick your hangover to the curb.
At least until next week.
1.) Miso Hungry.
Miso soup can help us replace a lot of what our bodies need to feel better: water, sodium, and other nutrients that are depleted by the diuretic effects of alcohol. Miso soup offers trace minerals, amino acids, and B vitamins, among others, to help cleanse the body. Because it's fermented and contains healthy bacteria, it also aids in digestion. Adding some miso soup to your diet can help you get back some of the nutrients you've lost the night previous. I wish I could say the same for your missing shoes…
2.) Mega Omega 3s.
If you don't know already, omega 3 fatty acids are phenomenal for you. Enjoy them in pill form or integrate some flax seed, salmon, or spinach into your diet. To help a hangover, take some when you get home, wake up, and you can continue to do so during the next day. Alcohol causes inflammation and since omegas are proven to fight inflammation, they're a match made in hangover heaven. Omegas also do wonders for your skin, so pop a few if your skin is feeling dry and blotchy the next day.
3.) Drink Kombucha Tea.
I will admit that I have yet to try this stuff because I'm not a huge fan of weird stuff floating in my beverages. But I might have to start since they're rumored to help your hangover. Lindsay Lohan approves so who am I to disagree? Like miso, Kombucha is fermented which will help with your angry tummy. Too much alcohol disrupts the stomach lining and lets just say your digestive track can be a bit… upset. Kombucha is also been attributed to "restoring healthy balance in the body" and even contains a bit of alcohol itself – a little hair of the dog?
4.) Have Sex. Or Just Cuddle.
I approve of both since physical contact releases oxytocin and other hormones that make you happy. After a night of drinking your laziness could leave you feeling glum. Any sort of intimate interaction could be just the thing to put that skip back in your step. But only do so if you enjoy the other person. Sex with someone you don't like won't help your hangover – or anything else for that matter.
5.) Get It Worked Out.
If there's ever a reason to splurge on a massage, a hangover just may be your reason. The verdict is still out for many people on whether or not a massage is a good idea after a night of drinking – but venturing out for some R&R could do wonders. Getting a massage is obviously relaxing and makes you feel good, but they're also proven to boost your immune system with more white blood cells. This might not help you feel 100% right in the moment, but it could ward off other illnesses lurking behind your hangover due to lack of sleep, a lowered immune system, and so on.
6.) Bath Time.
Not only are baths soothing and relaxing, adding some mustard or wasabi can be beneficial to you hangover. Stay with me on this one. Mustard is known to increase circulation and draw out toxins. Using mustard powder or buying a pre-made mustard bath product (yes, one exists) can help soothe and replenish.
Wasabi, like mustard, is another toxin eliminator. Wasabi bath treatments are also available for purchase and mixing it into a bath can help with nausea, fever, and indigestion.
7.) Squeeze in a Mini Work Out.
The stance on whether or not to exercise is divided, but if you feel up to it, go for it. Obviously, if you can't peel yourself from the couch, or off the bathroom floor, then it's best to take the day off. If you are going to exercise, take it easy and hydrate! Exercise increases circulation and releases endorphins. I know for myself, working out even a little just helps put my mind at ease. Try some light cardio or yoga. Since you're most likely already dehydrated don't over do it; stay away strenuous cardio or hot yoga. Otherwise you may find yourself apologizing to other yogis wondering why it smells like Tequila.
8.) Make A Banana, Blueberry, Kale and Lemon Smoothie.
Antioxidants, check. Potassium, check. Natural sugars, check. Vitamins, check. Digestive enzymes, check. Rather than all the resting, waiting, or feel-good attempts, this remedy really does help heal your hangover with all it's nutritional goodies. Just remember to make it fresh and finish every last drop!
9.) Coo Coo for Coconuts.
The milk found in coconuts is like nature's Gatorade–but better. According to TIME, it has the identical five electrolytes found in blood. (Gatorade only has two, just sayin'). It's a great addition to water to help you replenish and revive your body.
10.) Enjoy It?
Sometimes I like to think of a hangover as a good friend you see from time to time that reminds you to just take it easy. He tells you to have a seat, kick up your feet, and you deserve a day off. Now, he is probably saying this while punching you in the head, but there's nothing you can do about it now. Just remember how much fun last night was, even if you can't remember much at all.
Jolee McBreen is a student at the Art Institute and whips up delicious coffee concoctions at a coffee shop in Denver. When she's not avoiding homework or steaming milk she can be caught with her family, friends, snuggling her two adorable dogs, or dancing… pretty much anywhere.

and this is related to yoga how??? This ain't what I pay $9/month for, EJ.
It has never been my understanding that elephant journal is a purely-yoga publication. A lot of yoga pops up in their content, but it's not their sole focus. I love seeing the other topics they bring up in pursuit of "the mindful life," and this is no exception.
Great job, Jolee!
Point taken about the diversity of subjects EJ covers, Sarah, however, this article does appear under the yoga tab, so…
I'm also not sure how curing the effects of mindless consumption of alcohol fits into the pursuit of "the mindful life". Peace, Jane

Alright Pen, two thoughts.First, how do you feel about the snow elves taking a blow and losing one of their cities? I am begining to think about Azgo learning of their worship of them only to be disgusted by their lack of devotion when he sends commands and visions. Basically something cataclysmic.And second, Azgo will be needing a smith soon. I was thinking about just creating an exarch, but that seems a little cheap in a cooperative game. What if you created a proud (race goes here) smith, accomplish any ends you might want to (especially against me), and then off him for me to pick up and use in the Abyss? That seems much more fleshed out to me.But as always, the choice remains with you.
He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. -Revelation 21:6
Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for thee.-John Donne, Meditation XVII

Why do you ask? I didn't ask anything... intentionaly. I thought you said earlier that the continents needed names. If you did, i agree. If you didn't, then I think they do anyway. Mainly because i am getting very tired of writing East continent and West continent over and over. Seems unnatural that they wouldn't have named it by now.Or perhaps it doesn't, if nobody else is bothered by it.
Err... sorry. Wasn't asking why *you* were asking about names, I was trying to poke fun at my own suggestion of 'Westeros' as the name of a continent, when that is the name of a continent in one currently highly popular book and TV series...I do think they need names.

Restaurant owner on police raids: 'I don't know what they are looking for'
YAKIMA, Wash. -- 17 of the 21 men and women arrested when federal agents raided dozens of homes and cars made their first appearance Thursday in Federal Court. Both El Mirador locations in town were also raided under suspicion they were knowingly hiring illegal immigrants.
While federal agents came armed with weapons, KIMA Facebook fans came armed with words, speaking out about Wednesday's raids of suspected illegal immigrants.
Thousand of comments filled our page. One comment reads, "They broke the law and now are paying the price."
A thought echoed by Yakima resident Daniel Ross.
"Everyone has to abide by the law, so why not them, too?" Ross said.
Many other Facebook fan feels this shouldn't be a crime, stating "they weren't doing any illegal stuff. They were working to provide for their family."
"The fact that they are working makes a difference?" Action News asked.
"That makes all the difference," Yakima resident Lacie said. "They weren't living off the welfare system. They are working to provide for and just live life."
A Latina who asked not to be identified says she sees both sides.
"It is wrong. Of course, as a Hispanic, you want to say it's not wrong, because it's for the right reasons, but it's still illegal."
Action News learned the people in custody face charges range from from misusing a social security card to unlawful production of immigration documents.
Our cameras weren't allowed in the Federal Courthouse, but more than a dozen of those arrested Wednesday made their first appearance.
The majority of those facing charges either worked at one of the El Mirador restaurant or are related to owner, Abraham Brambila.
He's under scrutiny for hiring them but was not arrested.
"I don't know what they are looking for," Bambila said. "They look for papers, social security for employees."
Brambila said he is cooperating with agents and has no knowledge of employees making counterfeit documents under his roof.
"So you never knowingly-hired someone who was illegal?" KIMA asked.
He wouldn't answer the question on the record, but he admits while he asks each employee for their papers, he doesn't check them to make sure they're legal.
Brambila believes these people needed a job and had the proper documents to be hired.
"It's family, employees, business. It's all we do," he said.
But for now the restaurants are closed -- following the massive raids.
El Mirador's owner says he plans to reopen both restaurants by the end of the week with new employees.
Those arrested will have a bail hearing next week.
The president of the Yakima County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce said the timing of the raids with the recent push for immigration reform in Washington D.C. is the reason for the strong reaction to this week's raids. Watch the video below:

Spring is finally here which means wedding season is now upon us. If you're like me, you often get invited to weddings from distant cousins, high school friends and co-workers. Although you may think the hardest part is finding a suitable date that friends and family won't pry too hard into, the hardest part is finding the appropriate gift.
Sometimes gift registries aren't exactly what you had in mind gift-wise. No one really wants the bread maker in most cases but, it's usually one of the last items left to pick for the couple. That or the $500.00 crystal vase. In these cases I always turn to giftcards because really, that's what most of the gifts result in anyhow. My favorites would include Tiffany's discounted gift cards and Crate and Barrel discounted gift cards. I find that for a young couple starting out together, these are most likely to be used and appreciated.
You may be thinking that among the onslaught of beautifully and ornately wrapped gifts on the table your envelope will look pretty plain and unnoticed. This can also be fixed: a little plain box from a stationary store or craft supply store can remedie this. Just add a little dried flowers or tissue in the box, nestle the giftcard inside, and top it off with a ribbon matching the color scheme and instantly turn that drap envelope into a pretty mystery!
Also, with using Cardpool you can catch a break on giftcards receiving a discount of up to 18% to help your wedding gift budget and hopefully allow you to attend all the weddings you're invited to, leaving you only to worry about what to wear!

LONDON — While some Europeans swelled with pride after the European Union won the Nobel Peace Prize, howls of derision erupted from the continent's large band of skeptics.
To many in the 27-nation bloc, the EU is an unwieldy and unloved agglomeration overseen by a top-heavy bureaucracy devoted to creating arcane regulations about everything from cheese to fishing quotas. Set up with noble goals after the devastation of World War II, the EU now appears to critics as impotent amid a debt crisis that has widened north-south divisions, threatened the euro currency and plunged several members, from Greece to Ireland to Spain, into economic turmoil.
The vocal anti-EU politicians known as euroskeptics burst into a chorus of disdain Friday.
"First Al Gore, then Obama, now this. Parody is redundant," tweeted Daniel Hannan, a euroskeptic European lawmaker — yes, such things exist — from Britain's Conservative Party.
Nigel Farage, head of the U.K. Independence Party — which wants Britain to withdraw from the union — called the peace prize "an absolute disgrace."
"Haven't they had their eyes open?" he said, arguing that Europe was facing "increasing violence and division," with mass protests from Madrid to Athens over tax hikes and job cuts and growing resentment of Germany, the union's rich and powerful economic anchor.
And Dutch populist lawmaker Geert Wilders scoffed: "Nobel prize for the EU. At a time (when) Brussels and all of Europe is collapsing in misery. What next?"
Britain, which has been an EU member since the 1970s but likes to keep an English Channel-wide distance between itself and the union, gave a muted reaction. Prime Minister David Cameron's office had no comment — a safe policy for the leader of a Conservative Party deeply divided between pro- and -anti-EU camps.
The Foreign Office noted, tersely, that the award "recognizes the EU's historic role in promoting peace and reconciliation in Europe, particularly through its enlargement to Central and Eastern Europe. The EU must always strive to preserve and strengthen those achievements."
Conservative lawmaker and former foreign secretary Malcolm Rifkind, whose party is deeply divided on Britain's role in the EU, probably spoke for many Britons when he called the decision slightly eccentric.
"If they want to give the prize for preserving the peace in Europe, they should divide it between NATO and the EU," he said. "Until the end of the Cold War, it was NATO more than anyone else that kept the peace."
Others praised the union's role in reuniting post-Communist Europe but pointed out its greatest failure — the inability to halt the bloody Balkan wars that raged just outside the EU's borders during the 1990s.
Some Europeans wondered whether all of the EU's 500 million residents could claim a share of the glory — and the $1.2 million prize money.
"I've just won the Nobel Peace Prize? How exciting," tweeted CNN's British talk show host Piers Morgan.
"As a member of the EU, I am delighted to accept the Nobel Peace Prize," joked British playwright Dan Rebellato on Twitter. "I shall keep it in the spare room, in case people want to look at it."
BBC business correspondent Robert Peston wondered whether everyone in the EU would get a share of the prize money, which works out to about a quarter of a cent per person.
"What will you spend yours on?" he asked followers on Twitter.

Could anyone comment on whether the following technique is safe/reasonable for security?
I require users to login. At the login, they enter their username and pass. A query is run against a MySQL users table. If there is a match to that username and pass, I set a SESSION variable to a particular word. Then on the rest of my code, that is, on the code for the rest of my pages, I check to see whether that SESSION variable is set and equal to that predetermined word. If it is, code executes. If it isn't, code doesn't execute, and sends user back to login page.
It seems to work just fine, but was wondering whether this is really a safe way to do it.
Thanks in advance.

Frank Phillips College Volleyball Coach Ashley Dyer added to the Lady Plainsman roster with the recent signing of Kayla Silva of Edinburg, Texas.
Ms. Silva is a 5' 8" Outside Hitter who played varsity volleyball for four years at Economedes High School, earning team MVP honors three of those years. She earned 1st Team All-District 31-5A for three years, and 2nd Team All-Valley honors two years. As a senior she won the E.H.S. Heisman Award as the school's outstanding athlete.
This weekend, members of the Borger Bulldog football team traveled south to take part in a 16 team 7-on-7 football tournament in Snyder.
In pool play, the Borger squad went 2-1, just missing out of reaching the tournament semi-finals. In the wins, Borger defeated San Angelo Grape Creek 26-6 and beat Roscoe 26-0 before losing to Lamesa 27-20
The Borger team plays in the Caprock 7 on 7 tournament later in June, and the 9th grade 7 on 7 will play in a tournament in Amarillo on June 17th.
PLAINVIEW-On Saturday afternoon, a comeback just was not in the cards for the Borger Bulldogs in their 3A Regional Quarterfinal series with the Lubbock Cooper Pirates.
The Pirate hitters did a good job flexing their muscles by sending five balls over the fence to take game two and get the series sweep by a score of 11-0 at Wayland Baptist University in Plainview.

Logan Hoff
Sr. - West Texas
High School
Throughout his time in high school, Hoff has played a key role in the success of the Comanches in football, basketball, baseball and track.
In football, Hoff helped lead the Comanches to the bi-district playoff round by collecting 1,023 yards on 96 attempts, rushing with nine touchdowns while throwing for 1,031 yards, on 53 or 106 attempts, with 13 passing and seven interceptions.
Rusty Purser
Borger High School
Prior to his arrival in 2009, the Borger Bulldog football team had endured a couple of hard years on the field and was a football program that had not seen a district title since 1981.
Under the leadership of Rusty Purser, the Borger Bulldogs improved greatly on the field, which includes earning a share of the 1-3A District title in 2009, followed by claiming the title outright this season with a perfect 3-0 mark in district play.
PLAINVIEW-In three different innings, the Borger Bulldogs loaded the bases with opportunities to have big innings, but the team managed to get just one run across home plate through five innings of play.
But in the other dugout, the Lubbock Cooper Pirates used a big fourth inning to score nine runs on their way to defeating Borger 12-1 in game one of the best-of-three 3A Regional Quarterfinal Playoff Series at Wayland Baptist in Plainview.
On Thursday afternoon Borger High School senior soccer player Hannah Blakely signed a letter of intent to play colleigate soccer at West Texas A&M University in Canyon.
A four-year letterman for the Lady Bulldogs, the 2011 team captain has established herself the past couple of years as one of the best high school girl soccer players in West Texas.
On Thursday evening coaches, athletes, family and school administrators of West Texas High School celebrated a great year in sports at the Comanche and Lady Comanche Athletic Banquet in Stinnett.
Winning the 2010-11 Fighting Comanche award was senior Logan Hoff, while winning the 2010-11 Fighting Lady Comanche award were seniors Erin Frost and Maci Forrest.
Receiving the National Scholar Athlete Award were Maci Forrest and senior Terrence Bonds.
Hoff was recognized for being named as one of the Amarillo Globe News Scholar Athletes of the Year.
A ranking of ninth in the state to go along with a 30-5 record typically would cause an intimidation factor going into a playoff series for the opposing team.
That could have been the case in Plainview this week, as the mentioned high ranking and great record belongs to the Lubbock Cooper Pirates, the Borger Bulldogs' opponent in this weekend's best of three 3A Regional Quarterfinal series.

Sorry to go off thread a little here, but how does the non-clumping additive effect Sodium Chloride in a photographic formula? The reason I ask, is that I have never noticed a problem with this.

I've been making this off and on for 5 years now and just love it. I can't eat dried peaches or apricots so I sub canned, drained, at the very end of cooking. Excellent!
Used dried apricots instead of peaches. Next time I plan on cooking it a bit longer to soften up the beef and thicken the stew.
Couldn't find dried peaches so we used dried apricots. Also added a little corn starch and water at the end of cooking time to make the liquid thicker. It turned out delicious and was so easy to make. Carmenere wine is a great match.
