Are words really necessary?
So I dropped the Beggar's Chicken. So we didn't get to ceremoniously crack the clay crust with a hammer at the table. So I ended up with a greasy clay slurry all over my kitchen floor. Big deal. I'm over it.
Happy now thanksalot?
The chicken itself was luscious. Stella liked it. Or did we just tell her to pose like she did for a photo?
The stuffing -- full of Virginia ham and black mushrooms -- was terrific. Meat, moist and tender. Served Cecilia's garlic noodles as a side. Also a three-shreds salad (wimpy) and some salty star-anise peanuts.
For dessert: red bean cakes. "When I was a girl, vendors with steamers set over braziers on the back of their rickshaws used to ride through the alleys and streets of Beijing selling warm sweet bean cakes," Cecilia Chiang reminisces.
In the absence of vendors on rickshaws, you can make your own bean cakes according to Madame Chiang's recipe. Cook tiny Chinese beans, then soak them in a sugar syrup. Mix the syrup and beans with a pound of rice flour, pour into a buttered cake tin and steam over boiling water for an hour.
At this point the cake has the texture of an eraser and is the color of a bruise. You thinly slice, dip in sugar, and fry in peanut oil, which gives each piece a crisp, caramelized crust. In the photograph below, the bean cakes are the ragged things that look like burnt meat loaf. I wish I'd bothered to stage this shot with a little more panache because the cakes were, in fact, strangely addictive. But this was the end of a long, slightly tragic evening.

County leaders, FWS talk chicken
PORTALES — County commissioners from around southeastern New Mexico met in Portales Thursday to voice their concerns to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife's regional official about the Service's plan to invoke a "threatened" listing for lesser prairie chicken.
The scarce and skittish lesser prairie chicken has the potential to wreak economic havoc within communities across a region that are already struggling, commissioners from across the state told USFWS Regional Director Benjamin Tuggle during a three-hour meeting.
"It is an issue that is important to our counties and the state of New Mexico," Chaves County Commission Chairman Greg Nibert said. "Our presence here today should establish that we're truly concerned, not only for our industries, but really for every person that resides within these communities.

There's no doubt that having Norman North travel more than 125 miles while Owasso will travel less than 20 to play Friday night's semifinal game between the two at Tulsa Union isn't completely neutral.
High school football: Norman North to face Owasso at Tulsa Union
But Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association rules made clear long before this issue arose that the game would be played in the Tulsa area.
"In an even-numbered calendar year, the best available site on the east side of the state will be selected. In an odd-numbered calendar year, the best available site on the west side will be selected," the OSSAA rule says regarding semifinals and finals in 6A and 5A.
The rule has been in place since 2004.
In 2009, Jenks traveled to play Southmoore at Putnam City, and in 2007 the Trojans played Midwest City at Edmond's Wantland Stadium.
In 2008, Union played Midwest City at Sand Springs and Jenks played Mustang at Broken Arrow.
This week's Hennessey-Vian quarterfinal clash is the most anticipated matchup in Class 2A since the playoff bracket was released.
It could be compared to a Joe Frazier-Muhammad Ali title bout, round two.
"I know Vian has been looking forward to it ever since we played them in the third round last year at our place," Hennessey coach Rick Luetjen said.
Hennessey won that game, 18-7, on its way to a second straight state championship.
This year's game at Vian will feature the No. 1 team in the state, and the club most pundits pick to win the title, against the two-time defending state champions.
"It's the same scenario as last year," Luetjen said. "We knew that was going to be a very physical football game between two teams that were real similar. We expect the same thing this week.
"It's going to be a fistfight from the start. Whoever can stand it the longest is probably going to be who comes out on top."
Vian (12-0) has crushed its opponents this season but hasn't faced anyone as good as Hennessey (10-2).
The Eagles will rely heavily on running back Levi Hill, who rushed for 283 yards and three touchdowns on 26 carries in Hennessey's 56-21 win over Washington Friday night.

At this point in winter, I am starting to think about how excited I am for summer to come so I can spend some lazy summer days in Madison's beautiful parks. But I've never thought about how those parks came to be. Recently we went live with a collection dedicated to the Madison Park and Pleasure Drive Association, these are the people who helped create the parks we have today.
The Madison Park and Pleasure Drive Association Reports and Related Materials collection provides accessibility to early information about the City of Madison around the turn of the 20th century. The reports detail money coming in and going out and work done on various parks and pleasure drives. The drives and parks that this group helped create are an integral part of our Madison community.
During the turn of the 20th century, the Madison Park and Pleasure Drive Association wanted to attract attention to this cities beautiful lakes. They wanted to make Madison a popular place for summer vacation homes and visitors.
If you've ever wondered how our parks and pleasure drives were constructed take a look at this new collection. And cross your fingers that we will be able to enjoy our Madison parks soon.

Finalize() :
1.Finalize() is called by the runtime GC.
2.Is a destructor, called by Garbage Collector when the object goes out of scope.
3.Implement it when you have unmanaged resources in your code, and you want to make sure that these resources are freed when the Garbage collection happens.
Dispose() :
1.Dispose() is called by the user
2.Same purpose as finalize, to free unmanaged resources. However, implement this when you are writing a custom class, that will be used by other users.
3.Overriding Dispose() provides a way for the user code to free the unmanaged objects in your custom class.
4.Be sure to call base class dispose if requred(if that also has some unmanaged resources) Do you remember writing virtual destructors in C++?

Yankee Depth And The Return Of Cody Ransom
RJ Anderson at Fangraphs looked at the trio of outfielders that the Yankees have stashed in the minors:
That offensive state of mind exists beyond the pantheon of new Yankee Stadium. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, home to the Yankees' Triple-A affiliate, features a triplet of red-hot bats. Shelley Duncan, Austin Jackson, and John Rodriguez patrol the outfield while...

The Oklahoman's Berry Tramel took questions from readers in today's Power Lunch Chat. Join our Power Lunch Chats Monday-Friday at 11 a.m. on NewsOK.com/Sports.
Berry Tramel: Power Lunch Chat transcript, October 10, 2012
Will Malcolm Brown be ready for Texas?
I assume so. But the bigger question is, will Texas use him? The 'Horns have seemingly gone with Jonathan Gray and Joe Bergeron at the expense of Brown. I would expect Brown to see few carries.
In your opinion, what single part of the OU/Texas game does a victory for OU hinge upon?
Turnovers. If I have to pick one priority, it's turnovers. If OU protects the ball, I think the Sooners win. Turn it over twice or more, Texas wins. One? Tossup.
Give me some advice, Mr. Trammel. This will be my first OU/Texas game. What do I need to know?
Oh, you need to know lots of things. Go early. Real early. Or stay off the interstates at least. If you're in North Dallas, go 635 East and follow it all the way down to I-30 West and come to Fair Park from the backside. You'll thank me later. Don't engage in heckling, pregame or postgame. Some day, someone will get shot in an OU-Texas argument in the shadow of the Cotton Bowl. I don't want it to be you. If you're going to partake in the fair, as far as food or rides, takes lot of money. Or your ATM card. But if you want to just look around, there's lots to see.
Hey Berry, in your 'expert' opinion, what is OU and UT's biggest weakness that each will try and take advantage of Saturday? As improved as Texas 'seems' to be I still feel OU should win this game if they can counter UT's beast of a defensive line. Your thoughts? Thanks!
Why the quotation marks around expert? You'll give me a complex. I agree that OU should win. UT's defensive ends are great, but UT's defensive tackles are all that good. I think OU will throw on Texas, too. OSU and WVU have both run and passed on the 'Horns. The Sooners will try to do the same.
What is your opinion of the new college football rule where the ball comes out to the 25 yard line when the kickoff goes in or out of the end zone?
I don't like it. Five extra yards that the offense doesn't need. Why wouldn't we go the other way? Make it the 15-yard line. But the truth is, rule makers don't want kick returners to bring the ball out of the end zone. They want to limit kickoff returns.
If the Thunder are going to lose James Harden, what about figuring out a way to bring in Monta Ellis? He is due to make $11 million this year and next.
No way. First all, he's not the kind of ballplayer the Thunder needs. And if you're going to lose Harden, don't retool with someone who would cost just as much as what you were offering Harden. Signing Harden at $11-12 million would be severe hardship on OKC. If you're going to lose Harden, why take on the hardship, too. Get a veteran who just wants to win and will play for less.
Landry Jones looked pretty darn good to me last week against Texas Tech. Do you think he will continue on a better path?
I think Landry the rest of the year will play about six good games and one or two clunkers. The problem is, you don't know when the clunker will come.
IMO, if Lazar Hayward's option is picked up then the Thunder can no longer use money as an excuse to not bring back Harden. If they keep Hayward they might as well just take $2 million and light it on fire.
I don't know. You've got to pay somebody down at the bottom of the roster, and most anyone would cost $1 million. You're probably right, they won't re-up Hayward, but I don't think keeping him is a sign that money doesn't matter.
Do you see West Virginia going undefeated in the Big 12? Can OU still pull it out?
OU can still pull it out. It won't be easy, but it's not impossible. No, I don't think West Virginia will win out. Stillwater, Lubbock, Ames, not easy places to play. Home games against KSU and OU. Tough games.
Please explain the rule in college football — last OU game, Brown catches a ball in the end zone lying on the ground with firm possession. Play over. TD, right? Defender strips the ball. No catch. If defense tries to strip it for 5 minutes, does the play last 5 minutes? Stupid rule.
I don't know that the refs called the play right. It's possible the call would have been overruled, if it had gone to replay. I think it was a touchdown. You have to control the ball as you go to the ground, if you go to the ground.
I kind of like what I saw from Frank Shannon and A. Franklin. Will we see more of them?
Yes, absolutely. I think Shannon will play a ton. Franklin quite a bit. I think Shannon is ready to take over at MLB, but OU will use Wort some still, because of experience.
What about bringing in JJ Reddick when James Harden leaves?
I guess that would be OK, so long as he doesn't cost too much. Redick is not replacement for Harden. Redick is more like Daequan Cook than James Harden.

While all-star players like Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk provide great insurance for the following season, young prospects like Brendan Smith and Gustav Nyquist, who got a taste of the NHL this season, Petr Mrazek and Calle Jarnkrok, draft picks who've dominated at the junior level, and Riley Sheahan and Tomas Tatar, are likely to become the successful next generation of Red Wings.
Though the Wings dealt their first-round pick in June's draft to reacquire defenseman Kyle Quincey, Holland feels comfortable with the prospects currently in the pipeline and was at ease with dealing the first-round pick.
Prospects such as Smith and Nyquist are expected to be challenged during training camp to reach their potential and make the roster, but a constant progress of the franchise's draft picks and their eventual graduation onto the will also become a priority.
"In training camp (last September), we challenged our 20-somethings to take a step and I thought a lot (of that group did) take a step," Holland said. "That's part of growing a team. At the end of the day, when you look at the four teams left in the West (Conference playoffs), they've been building and growing. It's the league (right now)."
With the potential retirements of captain Nicklas Lidstrom and gritty forward Tomas Holmstrom, and the unsure returns of unrestricted free agents Brad Stuart and Jiri Hudler, the future could be now for those prospects.
"As l look today at the teams playing in the West (playoffs), isn't that what they've done," Holland said. "They've drafted, they've developed and they've built and they got themselves in position where they have pretty good depth, and they have good players and now they've won a playoff round."

We were very saddened to hear that Tim Rix, CBE, who was the Chair of Book Aid International from 1994 to 2007, passed away last year (8/11/12). Tim had a very distinguished career in publishing, which saw him become MD and Chair of Longman Publishing. He had also served as President of the Publishers Association.
Tim led us through some difficult times – supporting then Director Sara Harrity MBE through a period of financial difficulty when the Department for International Development ended its perennial grant to the charity, and then through a new phase of developing our financial support from individuals. He brought a strong business mind to his leadership, along with a genuine concern for the people involved with the charity – the people reading the books we sent to Africa, and Trustees, staff and volunteers alike. He was also known for his great generosity and sociability: Tim always knew the first names of every staff member and visited the offices and warehouse frequently. Also, unbeknown to most of the staff, Tim paid for the staff Christmas party for many years.
Current Book Aid International Chair, Philip Walters, MBE, said "Tim was a huge support to BAI as Chair of the charity for such a long time and during such a period of change. His great wisdom and kindness will be missed by everyone here."

With the aging of the baby boomers many will want to,as I do,
either continue to ride,or return to, a bicycle of some sort.
With the huge selection available now they will be face to
face with the one thing they don't like in selecting a bike.
The are now growing older and at times less able to do the
things with the gusto they once had which limits the types
of bikes they can ride.
In my personal quest to return to cycling I've found a that
the boomer group hasn't been fully spotted by those who make
multi-wheeled bikes.Which leads to a somewhat limited
selection of product to choose from. Sure there many trikes
and 4 wheelers but they are by and large aimed at the
speciality market or the "go fast" group.
So my question to the folk's here is why doesn't more
information (I've found very limited info on the web and
even less in print) & selection exist in the U.S.A. on
multi wheeled bikes??
From where I stand this is a huge market waiting to be tapped as boomers age.
Do you think that multi wheeled bike will ever be more mainstream??
If so what type will be most common? 3 wheel? 4 wheel?
Will dealers ever see this market enough to stock multi
wheeled bikes??

Construction along Hwy 101; drivers 'shouldn't expect many delays'
COOS BAY, Ore. -- Drivers might see more traffic delays on Highway 101 in February as crews start to lower and adjust manholes.
The construction is a part of the Oregon Department of Transportation's "Hwy 101: paving signals and sidewalks project".
Crews will set to work near the Mill Casino, heading north toward the McCullough Bridge before working their way south along Hwy 101.
There are about 80 manholes in total, so Knife River Project Manager Randy Cotton anticipates repairs to take about a month and a half.
"They shouldn't expect many delays. We're gonna do single lane closures and they should be able to just merge into one lane and get right on through," said Cotton.
He said that the adjustments will make the road smoother when the paving work is finished.
Police officials ask drivers to slow down in construction areas, and to obey all flaggers and traffic signs.

Sorry, Macho Men with Small…no more Hummers.
Hummers may have been the love 'em (macho) or hate 'em (eco-responsibility) symbol of American excess, but…in the end, no one bought 'em.
Via NYT:
Mr. Richards said Hummer dealers in the United States had about 2,500 vehicles in their inventories. In January, the brand sold just 265 units in the country. Hummer sales plunged 67 percent in 2009, to a total of 9,046.
Perhaps people were afraid of looking like, or being treated like…or being, a**holes.
All that said, our condolences to those workers who are losing their jobs. Hopefully they can come work for Tesla, or some other more responsible, yet still cool and growing car manufacturer.

How a Small Business Can Build the Perfect Website
By Penny C. Sansevieri, Adjunct Instructor NYU & CEO of Author Marketing Experts, Inc.
- Strong call to action: You must tell your visitors what you want them to do, otherwise they will leave without taking action and that won't serve you well at all.
- Contact points: Make it easy for someone to contact you, either through a phone number, contact form, direct email, or a combination of these three.
- Secure shopping: In an age of identity theft and online scams, I can't emphasize enough that you must have a secure shopping cart. How do you get this? Tell your website developer that you want this, though most will insist on it.
- Testimonials: People like what other people like so be sure to add testimonials, reviews, and endorsements to your website.
- Signup: Most visitors won't make a decision to buy the first time they land on your site; in fact, the number is frighteningly small. Getting folks to sign up for your blog, newsletter, or announcement list is a way to stay on their radar screen (permission marketing) and getting them back to your site again and again. By doing this, you'll deliver the sale.
- Easy share: There are a lot of articles on having sharing features on a website and blog so I won't belabor this. Suffice it to say that you want to be sure that your site is sharable on any and all relevant social media sites.
- Blog: In an age of almost monthly Google algorithm changes a blog is no longer an option if you're trying to get some visibility for your site. It's a must and you'll want to update it at a minimum of twice a week.

Repeating earlier success in the regular season, Appalachian State University women's tennis shutout Western Carolina, 4-0, in the opening round of the 2012 Southern Conference Tennis Championship at The College of Charleston
Tennis Center on Thursday. Originally scheduled for 2 p.m., the match concluded shortly before 10 p.m. due to lengthy rain delays. "The toughest part of today's match was that the players had to wait for so long and then play under the lights," noted head coach Colin Crothers.

I have a 0.5-watt PB Superflash that I have been using at night (which works well) and also on darker overcast days. The light is visible on overcast days, and it probably helps a little bit, but I'm wishing for more. Will the 1-watt Superflash Turbo or Radbot 1,000 be eyecatching in daylight, or should I go for something better? I'm trying not to be unrealistic - I doubt that they will show up at high noon on a sunny day. I always use my current light in flashing mode, and expect the same for the new one.
The reason I'm focused on these lights is that I already have PB seatpost mounts on 3 bikes, and I love that I can just have one light in my pannier and stick it on any of the bikes. (I heard that Portland Design Works lights work with the PB mounts, but correct me if I'm wrong about that). It would be nice to have a better light that would work with these mounts, and also keep my current light as a backup.

10-month Versus 40-week Versus 200-day SMA
July 11, 2013 • Posted in Technical Trading
A reader asked: "I would love to see a backtest pitting a 10-month simple moving average (SMA) against a 200-day SMA for SPY. I assume trading costs would go through the roof on the latter, but do performance gains offset the additional costs?" Other readers asked about a 40-week SMA. Using monthly, weekly and daily dividend-adjusted closes for SPDR S&P 500 (SPY) from inception on 1/29/93 through June 2013, along with the contemporaneous daily 13-week Treasury bill (T-bill) yield, we find that:
For this contest, we make the following rules/assumptions:
- Buy (sell) SPY at the close when it crosses above (below) its SMA, anticipating crossing signals such that trades occur at the close on the day of the signal (calculations occur just before the close).
- The 10-month SMA rule uses (and trades) only monthly closes, the 40-week SMA rule uses (and trades) only weekly closes, and the 200-day SMA rule uses (and trades) daily closes.
- Test cumulative/terminal values of $10,000 initial investments made on the first day that the sample enables calculation of all three SMA rules, with dividends reinvested frictionlessly.
- Use the T-bill yield for the return on cash (ignoring settlement delays).
- Test sensitivity to one-way trading frictions ranging from 0.0% to 0.5%.
The following chart compares terminal values of initial investments of $10,000 at the close on 11/11/93 for buying and holding SPY and for applying 10-month, 40-week and 200-day SMA rules to SPY with one-way trading frictions ranging from 0.0% to 0.5% over the entire sample period. The 10-month, 40-week and 200-day SMA rules are in the market 73%, 72% and 73% of the time, respectively. The respective number of switches between SPY and cash are 20, 76 and 148.
The 10-month SMA rule beats both 40-week and 200-day SMA rules due not only to lower cumulative trading friction (fewer trades) but also to better timing (winning for zero trading friction). The 10-month SMA rule beats buying and holding SPY for all levels of trading friction. The 40-week and 200-day SMA do not beat buying and holding SPY for any levels of trading friction.
Since this contest involves only about 25 completely independent observations (25 10-month signaling intervals), differences among the SMAs could be due to luck.
Daily data offer insight regarding why the 10-month and 200-day SMA rules perform differently.
The next chart plots the cumulative returns by trading day for $10,000 initial investments at the close on 11/11/93 for buying and holding SPY, a 10-month SMA rule, a 40-week SMA rule and a 200-day SMA rule with 0.2% one-way trading friction. The 10-month SMA rule mostly leads the other two SMA rules. Notable points are:
- The average daily returns for the 10-month, 40-week and 200-day SMA rules are 0.042%, 0.026% and 0.026%, respectively, compared to 0.040% for buying and holding SPY.
- The standard deviations of daily returns for the 10-month, 40-week and 200-day SMA rules are 0.82%, 0.78% and 0.79%, respectively, compared to 1.25% for buying and holding SPY.
- The average daily return for SPY for the 202 trading days when the 10-month SMA rule is in stocks but the 200-day SMA rule is out of stocks is 0.21%.
- The average daily return for SPY for the 158 trading days when the 10-month SMA rule is out of stocks but the 200-day SMA rule is in stocks is -0.10%.
Relative performance of the rules may derive in large part from major stock market turning points, in which case sample size is much smaller than the 25 independent signaling intervals.
Visualization of the returns on days for which rules disagree may be instructive.
The following scatter plot shows SPY returns for days when the 10-month and 200-day SMA rules disagree on whether to be in or out of stocks. As calculated above, it appears that the days when the 10-month SMA rule is disagreeably in stocks tend to have higher returns than the days when the 200-day SMA rule is disagreeably in stocks. The number of clusters (about a dozen) rather than the number of days arguably better characterizes disagreement sample size.
As a robustness test, we perform a simpler test on all three SMA rules using the longer sample available for the S&P 500 Index.
The final chart compares terminal values of initial investments of $10,000 for rules applying 10-month, 40-week and 200-day SMA rules to the S&P 500 Index for one-way trading frictions ranging from 0.0% to 0.25% and no return on cash over the period November 1950 through June 2013. The rules based on the 10-month, 40-week and 200-day SMAs are in the market 69%, 68% and 69% of the time, respectively. This contest involves about 76 completely independent signaling intervals.
Only the 200-day SMA rule beats buy-and-hold for low trading friction (less than 0.02%).
The trade-off between loss of dividends and return on cash while out of the market may be decisive for SMA rules versus buy-and-hold.
The S&P 500 Index is not directly tradable, and replicating it in the older part of the sample may have been costly. The right-hand side of the chart may be realistic (or even optimistic) for the early part of the sample period.
In summary, evidence from simple tests indicates that a 10-month SMA outperforms 40-week and 200-day SMAs under reasonably realistic trading assumptions for the broad value-weighted U.S. equity market over the past 20 years, but the source of outperformance may be luck.
Cautions regarding findings include:
- Lagging trades after signals may materially affect results.
- Actual trading frictions would vary with account size. In general, the smaller the account, the bigger the advantage of the 10-month SMA rule over the 40-week and 200-day SMA rules for trading SPY.
- As described in "Trading Frictions Over the Long Run", trading friction varies over time. More precise modeling of trading friction over time may materially affect results.
- Realistic accounting for dividend reinvestment timing and costs may materially affect results.
- Per "Is There a Best SMA Calculation Interval for Long-term Crossing Signals?", the selection of a 10-month SMA may be an artifact of pre-1980 data. Other month-based intervals may work as well.
- Per "Pure Versus Buffered SMA Crossing Signals", buffering 200-day SMA signals to reduce trading costs may not help much.
Several readers suggested looking at: long-run combination SMAs; optimized confirmation days/weeks after 200-day/40-week SMA signals; and, exponential moving averages instead of SMAs. Testing of additional and more complex rules elevates data snooping bias, both direct and inherited from prior studies. Also, as noted above, credible modeling of variations in trading friction over the long run is problematic. Uncertainties argue for priority on seeking incremental edges elsewhere.

These suffs hit the streets in 1914 in Washington, DC to spread the word. Meanwhile, back in New York on November 3, 1914, my grandmother Edna climbed up on scaffolding high above the city. She was one of eight suffragists who volunteered to paint a billboard at 110th Street and Amsterdam Avenue to advertise a suffrage event at Carnegie Hall. See article. Edna was fond of clipping articles and underlining her name, just so people like me would be sure to know it wasn't a clipping destined for the trash bin.

PLYMOUTH — More than 220 high school students from 50 New England high schools will join Plymouth State University ensemble singers in the 46th annual All New England Choral festival tonight at 7 p.m. at the Silver Center for the Arts.
The youth will join the PSU chorale and chamber singers, directed by PSU Professor Dan Perkins, conductor and artistic director of the festival. PSU collaborative pianist Charlie Blood will accompany the singers.
The concert is the culmination of weeks of preparation and a full day of rehearsals for the students and workshops for their teachers. J.W. Pepper music company and voice faculty instructor Emily Jaworski will present workshops during the day.
This year's theme, "Images of Light," will be highlighted by projections of the aurora borealis and other images by Christopher Georgia, an astrophotographer and graduate of Plymouth Regional High School, as well as program selections, including "Lux aurumque" by Eric Whitacre; "Northern Lights" by Gjeilo; "True Light" by Hampton and "Light of a Clear Blue Morning" by Dolly Parton.
The PSU Chamber Singers, with 16 to 24 voices, performs both on and off campus, traveling to England, South Africa, Vietnam, Italy, Canada, the American Southwest and throughout New England and the East Coast. The University Chorale features 70 to 80 voices and often collaborates with other New Hampshire choirs and orchestras.

Harry Fry grabs a second place with Subtle Sovereign on debut at Wincanton
Posted: October 19, 2012|
Fledgling trainer Harry Fry so nearly had a dream start to his career when Subtle Sovereign finished second to Gas Line Boy at Wincanton.
Fry, who was the main man at Paul Nicholls' satellite yard and was credited with masterminding champion hurdler Rock On Ruby last season, will be very pleased with the performance of the 20-1 shot.
Having looked a little outpaced half a mile out they grey stayed on strongly, albeit seven lengths behind the 8-1 winner, trained by Philip Hobbs and ridden by Richard Johnson for the Mick Fitzgerald Racing Club.
Johnson told Racing UK: "We didn't really know much about him and he was very green but he's got an engine.
"He'd won an Irish point-to-point and you never know how good that form is."
Former Grand National-winning jockey Fitzgerald said: "You can't get better than that. It's all about fun and what better way than having a winner."

Beth Hoeckel works mainly in the field of collage but also creates paintings, drawings, and photographs. She studied painting, photography and printmaking at the 'School of the Art Institute of Chicago' and after some years abroad, including living in New York and Los Angeles, she found her base in Baltimore. She is working in collage, mixed media and photography. Her series 'Evidents' is a play on words. Thereby 'evident' means perceptible or obvious, and 'evidence' is a proof or verification. Like this the series is otherworldly yet coherent, surreal yet believable and so you can see little kids eating a giant sandwich or hands and arms crawling out of the landscape. She says 'Each piece is a portrayal of a moment that seems unlikely, but tangible signs are revealed and cannot be denied'.

Campus may not look much different from the ground, but a crop of thick sedum now covers 50,000 square feet atop the Golda Meir Library. Nearly complete, it's the largest green roof on a public building in Wisconsin, and the fourth and the largest green roof at UWM.
A ribbon-cutting will be held on Campus Sustainability Day, Tuesday, Oct. 18, at 2 p.m. in the fourth floor Conference Room in the library. The planting, which tops the third floor of the West and East wings, is visible from the fourth floor.
The green roof project was made possible through a partnership with the Metropolitan Milwaukee Sewerage District (MMSD). The 30-kilowatt system of solar cells that is also part of the project was sponsored by WE Energies with the support of Focus on Energy grants.
Along with completion of the library's green roof, this summer's project included expansion of a green roof on the Sandburg Commons building, which is now more than 33,000 square feet.
Another green roof, installed in 2003, covers about 7,600 square feet of the WATER Institute's lower roof. In 2007, the student environmental organization Ecotone put in a 175-square-foot green roof adjacent to the east end of the Maryland Avenue footbridge.
The green roofs initiative began when Jim Wasley, associate professor of architecture, and his students launched a "storm-water master plan" in 2005. Wasley helped design the Golda Meir project and says the ultimate aim is to cut the amount of storm-water runoff pouring from pavement and roofs and washing surface pollutants into Lake Michigan.
"This will help Edgewood Avenue, where a lot of flooding takes place," says Wasley, who has also submitted a proposal to the Environmental Protection Agency involving a multiyear Monitoring, Research and Education Initiative.
UWM's profile is rising in green circles. In 2010, UWM made the Princeton Review's Green Colleges List, a guide to 286 institutions that have demonstrated an exemplary commitment to sustainability. The list was compiled by both the Princeton Review and the U.S. Green Building Council.
We are very excited about this new addition to our building," says Ewa Barczyk, director of libraries. "It complements all the green features and practices incorporated into our recent Daniel M. Soref Learning Commons remodeling project, including the re-use of doors and windows, a reliance on daylight rather than artificial light where possible, low VOC paint and flooring, and the recycling of over 75 percent of the demolished portions of the building."
In addition to the ribbon-cutting, Campus Sustainability Day will feature two other green activities:
7:30-10 a.m. The Organic Pancake Breakfast in the Union Ballroom East is open to all, but free to students. Winners of the Reduce Your Use Energy competition in the residence halls, which ran from Sept. 25 to Oct. 8, will be announced at the breakfast. Follow the competition on the university's sustainability dashboard, which tracks energy consumption: http://buildingdashboard.net//uwm/.
4-6 p.m. The Green Book Club will feature a reading and discussion of Dr. Seuss's "The Lorax" in the Wisconsin Room Lounge. Check out the sustainability website or Facebook for other information: www.sustainability.uwm.edu.

One Pucci dress, two very different ladies. Who looked best? You decide! (Though let's be real, it shouldn't be too hard.)
When we chatted with Alexa Chung at a party celebrating the new Pucci boutique at Saks on Tuesday, we admired how awesome she looked in a vintage-looking velvet Pucci dress. The lace sleeves, Peter Pan collar, and satin neck bow looked sweet in an ironically cool way on Chung, a vibe she played up with t-strap Mary Janes.
The very next morning Kris Jenner went on the Today Show to defend Kim Kardashian's 72-day marriage in the EXACT SAME PUCCI DRESS. And she looked decidedly not as great as Alexa did! This was not a morning show-appropriate dress, Kris. We also have to believe Alexa always beats everyone in "who wore it better" contests, but feel free to prove us wrong.

Vancouver Fishing Store
Vancouver Fly Fishing Information
Is located 20 minutes north of YVR International Airport in the heart of the city. Vancouver not only provides one of the most beautiful cityscapes in the world, but also provides a great hub for many of Vancouver's fishing opportunities.
BC Fishing Info - Vancouver Fishing Opportunities
Vancouver saltwater fishing opportunities abound in the inner harbor throughout the summer months. The same season also holds opportunities on the mighty Fraser River, 1 hr. east on the Trans Canada Highway. Here the angler can do battle with chinook, sockeye and pink salmon. For the ultimate test the Fraser River also is home to the giant white sturgeon one of the most underestimated gamefish in the world. Located 2 hrs. north from the city is the 2010 winter Olympic venue, Whistler. This area is reached via the Sea to Sky Highway and offers some exceptional fishing for rainbow trout in a multitude of streams and lakes.
Fly Fishing for Trout in British Columbia
Located further east, 4 hrs. to be exact lies the high desert plateau region of British Columbia. The Thompson / Nicola region offers the greatest lake fly fishing opportunities in the world! This region of the province has over 500 lakes seasonally stocked with Kamloops rainbow trout. These trout are famous for their arial displays and hard fighting abilities. This fishery begins in May and continues through into the Fall. During this time period the angler has the opportunity to catch these beautiful trout using a variety of fly fishing techniques. So for any related BC fishing information and insight into Vancouver fishing opportunities.
