St. Patrick's Day Layout
March 7, 2015 by Mary Pat Siehl
Filed under Scrapbooking, Uncategorized
Mary Pat here with you and today I have a fun St. Patrick's Day layout to share. I had a lot of fun creating this layout because I got to do some fun techniques: Misting, sanding, and layering!
St. Patrick's Day Layout Supplies:
- Core Essentials Cardstock
- Core Basics Patterned Paper (green & yellow patterns of your choice)
- Darice foam shamrock stickers
- Gold shimmer mist
- Gold doily
- Sand It Gadget and Dust Buddy
- Die cutting machine
I started with misting the white cardstock with a gold shimmer mist.
Using my Silhouette I cut out an overlay with shamrocks. I then used my Sand It Gadget and Dust Buddy to sand and distress my overlay.
I then layered my white cardstock on to a green cardstock that matches the green in the overlay.
Next, I layered my 4×6 photo with the new Core Basics Patterned Paper.
Finally I layered everything on my layout. I added a title also cut using my Silhouette and Core Essentials cardstock. For some cute little touches I added the foam shamrock stickers from Darice.
Thanks so much for joining me today.

Butterfly Luminary
February 21, 2015 by Joann Jamieson
Filed under Core Blog, Core Projects, Decor
Hi there Core Fans! It's Joann here with you today. This month we are featuring projects made with the fabulous Core Vellum and Core Vellum Quotes, and today I decided to combine both for you for this particular project. This was my first time using Core Vellum and I must tell you it's a pleasure to work with. In the past when I've used regular vellum I have not had a lot of success with heat embossing… Not the case with Core. Your heat embossing works like a charm. I will never use any other vellum again now…
Butterfly Luminary Supplies:
- Coredinations Vellum Baby Pink – GX-2300-98
- Coredinations Vellum Gold Metallic – GX-2300-94
- Coredinations Vellum – GX-1810-10
- Coredinations Core Essentials Pastels Cardstock
- Coredinations Inspirational Vellum Quotes
- Core Basics 80 lb White Cardstock
- Sand It Gadget & Dust Buddy
- Darice Nesting Rectangles Embossing Essentials Die
- Spellbinders Butterfly Magic Die
- Spellbinders Dainty Dots Embossing Folder
- Spellbinders Les Papillions Two Die
- Heartfelt Creations Arianna Blooms PreCut Set – HCPC 3608
- Heartfelt Creations Arianna Blooms Die – HCD 748
- Versamark
- Party Pink Embossing Powder
- Liquid Adhesive
- Silhouette Cameo
To make this project, follow these steps.
Step 1. Start by cutting a piece of White cardstock 11″ x 6 1/4″ and using the Spellbinders Butterfly Magic Die cut out your pattern. For the best possible box use the Core Basics 80 lb or 110 lb. card stock! Next, taking a piece of Coredinations Vellum Baby Pink in the same size, emboss it using the Spellbinders Dainty Dots Embossing Folder. Once the vellum is embossed, attach the vellum to the White cardstock and then roll into a circle. Note: try to curve your cardstock prior to attaching it in a circle. This will allow the project to hold the shape better.
Step 2. Using the Darice Nesting Rectangles Embossing Essentials Die, cut out the Vellum quote and the paper using the next larger size. The flowers are stamped using Versamark and Party Pink Embossing Powder and heat embossed prior to die cutting them out.
Step 3. Finally, layer on your pieces and decorate the box as desired.
Here is pic of what the Luminary looks like with the flameless candle turned on.

Valentine Hinged Heart Box
February 12, 2015 by Joann Jamieson
Filed under Core Blog, Core Projects, Gifts & Party, Seasonal
Hi everyone! It's Joann back with you today with a fun twist on a valentines box perfect for that special someone. This project uses your Core Essentials cardstock and some of the new patterned papers.
Here is a closer look at the detail of this lovely box.
Hinged Heart Box Supplies:
- Core Essentials Pastels Collection
- Core Basics White 110lb. Cardstock Smooth
- Coredinations Light Pink Plaid Patterned Paper GX-2300-52
- Sand It Gadget & Dust Buddy
- Darice Layered Heart Background Embossing Folder
- Spellbinders M-bossibilities Dainty Dots
- Heartfelt Creations Vintage Floret Die HCD 727
- Liquid Adhesive
- Pearls, Glitter and Ribbon From My Stash
- Silhouette Cameo
To make this project follow these steps.
Step 1. Start by 3 scalloped hearts out of White cardstock. For best results, I would suggest using the Core Basics 110 lb. card stock. The larger hearts are 6 1/2″ x 7″ while the smaller one is 5″ x 4 1/2″ in size.
Step 2. Cut 3 solid hearts out using the Core Essentials Pastels Collection. The hearts measure 6″ x 5 1/2″.
Step 3. Using the same cardstock you use for the solid hearts, cut two 12″ x 2 1/2″ strips and score on the 1/2″ mark on the long edge. If you want your box deeper, simply make these pieces taller. Now, in order for these strips to take the form of the hearts you will need to make a series of relief cuts to allow them to bend. Once your relief cuts are done, emboss and sand your cardstock. Don't forget to use your Dust Buddy to cleanup!
Step 4. Attach 1 strip to one of the solid hearts and the other solid heart. Make sure that you attach the strips to the opposite sides of the heart so that when you attach them together they will form the box.
Step 5. For one the pieces, cut the excess from the strip off and for the other piece only cut off the 1/2″ score. You will use the extra paper to attach the 2 hearts together.
Step 6. Flip over the top heart and attach the strip of paper so that the box will open and close. For a clean look, attach the paper on the inside of the box. Once the glue has dried, attach the last solid heart on the top for added strength.
Step 7. Finally, layer on your remaining hearts and decorate.
Thanks for stopping by for a peek… Have a wonderful day my crafty friends!
Valentines Keepsake Box
January 5, 2015 by Joann Jamieson
Filed under Core Blog, Core Projects, Decor, Gifts & Party
Hi there Core Fans! It's Joann with you and today I want to show you my twist on the classic rectangle box that is also super easy to make!
Valentines Keepsake Box Supplies:
- Tim Holtz Kraft Core Nostalgic Collection
- Tim Holtz Kraft Core Shattered Collection
- Coredinations Love Vellum Quotes
- Core Basics 110 lb White Cardstock
- Sand It Gadget & Dust Buddy
- Darice Embossing Folder Swirl Background
- Spellbinders Grand Labels One
- Spellbinders Rose Creations
- Spellbinders 5 x 7 Reflective Moment
- Liquid Adhesive
- Silhouette Cameo
To make this project follow these steps.
Step 1: Start by cutting 2 pieces of White cardstock 9″ x 3″ and another 2 pieces 2 3/4″ x 3″. For the best possible box use the Core Basics 110 lb. card stock!
Step 2: Starting with the 2 smaller pieces place them on your scoring board with the 2 3/4″ side to the left of the board and scor at the 1/2″ mark. Next placing your larger pieces on your scoring board, scor on the long side at the 1/2″ mark and the sort side at the 1″, 2″, 7″ and 8″ marks.
Step 3: In order for the base to fold properly make relief cuts as shown.
Step 4: Fold your 4 pieces on the scor lines and don't forget to use your bone folder to make those creases sharp.
Step 5: Assemble the pieces as shown and allow your glue to dry.
Step 6: To finish the inside of the box cut a 6 1/4″ x 4 1/4″ piece of card stock and cut off the corners. Hint: Place your assembled side over the inside piece and trace where to cut off the corners. Also using the largest Grand Labels One die, cut 2 pieces out of the same card stock. These will be your top and base of the box.
Step 7: You will want the top to hinge open. To allow that to happen cut a 5 x 5 3/4″ piece of card stock and scor at the 2 1/2″ mark. Once scored, fasten this to the inside of the box.
Step 8: Attach the top to the hinge. Hint: Fasten the top to the hinge using a glue that gives you a bit of time to adjust to ensure that your top is on evenly.
Step 9: Now it is time to decorate your box. Using the largest Grand Labels One Die, cut out 2 pieces in Grey Cardstock. Take the next smaller die and cut another 2 pieces out of patterned paper and finally cut 2 pieces 9″ x 2 1/2″ and another 2 pieces 2 3/4″ x 2 1/2″ out of Burnt Orange.
Step 10: Using your sanding tool, sand each piece and don't forget to use your dust buddy to cleanup.
Step 11: Finally, layer on your pieces and decorate the box as desired. Here are a few additional detail shots:

Filed under Cards & Tags, Core Blog, Core Projects, Seasonal, Winter Projects
Mary Pat here with you today and it seems like winter is back and it is going to be a long cold winter! Here in Ohio where I live it has been really cold and I love to send little notes in the mail to warm up my friends! So I made this fun and easy winter mitten card.
For my project I took a Silhouette image and turned it into a shaped card. I love shaped cards because I think they are just so darn fun and cute! I really wanted to use a variety of Core on this card. I used The Chocolate Box collection, The Vintage collection, Core Essentials, and Core Couture (Everyone needs a little bling, right?). I also had to include some stamping for a super cute sentiment.
Winter Mitten Card Supplies:
- Coredinations Cardstock- Core Couture, Core Essentials, The Vintage Collection, The Chocolate Box
- Sand It Gadget
- Dust Buddy
- Some Odd Girl Stamps
- Jenni Bowlin Ink
- Silhouette Cut File
- Darice Embossing Folder
I made a video for you. I demonstrate the techniques of embossing and sanding. Enjoy!
Thanks for joining me today. Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Step 2: Die cut numbers also out of white cardstock. And attach to lower right corner of envelope. Mine are about 1 inch tall. Again, you will need numbers 1 through 25 if you are starting your countdown on the first day of December.
Step 3: Fill envelope with small toys, games, art supplies, candies, gift cards, etc. according to the recipients tastes. Be sure and seal the envelopes to prevent prying eyes.

We tell you about these stories every summer, children who die after being left alone inside a hot car.
It keeps happening, so safety experts continue reminding anyone who drives children around to never leave them unattended in a vehicle.
Carilion Community Outreach Health Educator Jill Lucas Drakeford suggests placing your purse or cellphone in the back seat, to help make sure that you don't forget your child is in the car.
Drakeford also says to keep your car locked, so children aren't tempted to play in the vehicle, and then accidentally lock themselves inside of it.
Think safety first when you take the kids to the playground this summer.
Drakeford says to make sure your child is using age- appropriate playground equipment with a safe surface, like mulch or wood chips. And check for signs that say the playground has been inspected recently.
Always bring along a water bottle, too. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends five ounces of water for an 88 pound child every 20 minutes.

We love anything that makes our lives easier, which is why we bow down to philosophy®purity made simple™. The award-winning, one-step daily facial cleanser removes makeup, cleanses, tones and lightly hydrates the skin. Really, what more could you ask for?
I have heard fantastic reviews on this. I tried it out for a week, the smell is nice, the texture is great, I just don't think it works for my skin type. Right now, my skinny is extremely COMBINATION (oily to the max, and dried out in other ares) Bummer!3
I liked to cleanser for what it does. I can't speak of it's make-up removal abilities (I had waterproof sunscreen on and didn't really trust it to remove it so I used a oil-based remover prior to using the product). As a cleanser though, it's soft and comfortable. I don't see how it tones the skin, but I might purchase it in the future simply because it's a good cleanser.3
I'm not sure if this face wash leaves a residue or if I'm just not used to the super "moisturiziness". I've only used it a couple of times. No breakouts so far. I do always wonder if my face is completely clean. I'll continue to give it a try. Fingers crossed!3

Can u give me any info on how to tightening tappets as I changed my real dirty oil yesterday and now the lifters are very noisy, so I thought I should tighten them. Please advise. Thanks kindly
December 1, 2011.
December 1, 2011.
No, no, no. They are hydraulic. You do not tighten anything. If the lifters are clattering, then you likely let it go way too long and now they are not pumping up. There is no fix for that short of rebuilding the engine and boiling the block. Change the oil next time.

Oh sorry, for double post, but likely won't get the edit in in time.
I spent about 2 hours today trying to figure out the time I am taking off work. I don't know how often I might have mentioned that I hate other foster parents, but I do, I hate most of them.
My Mum is coming here in 2 weeks, I haven't seen her in 3 years, so the kids are spending the first two days with us, and the last 2. The rest of the time, I am using my respite = vacation time, so I can be with Mum, go on day trips etc.
So kid 1 has baseball, games Mon, Wed, Fri, and a practice either Tues or Thurs.
No other house would take him as they won't drive him to his games. It was hours of phone calls, with the office as they figured out what to do. His case worker is having to drive him to a few, the foster family agreed to a few - and there is one that I am going to pick him up and take him to.
It's a joke. No he is not 'their' kid, but they are being paid for him. I guess I am too, as it's a paid vacation, but heck!!!
So very annoying. But if they only hired the people who gave a crap, sadly there would be a max of 20 kids in the program as there's only about 3-4 of us who do care.

- Marital Deduction
- A deduction allowed by the federal estate tax laws for all property passed to a surviving spouse who is a U.S. citizen. This deduction (which really functions as an exemption) allows anyone, even a billionaire, to pass his or her entire estate to a surviving spouse without any estate tax at all.Under current federal law, this deduction is not available to same-sex couples even if they were validly married in a state that allows same-sex marriage.


text: I express strong opposition to the governor's proposal to cut home-school transportation. This cut will put the safety and lives of schoolchildren at risk. It will disproportionately impact the neediest students, including those with disabilities and the economically disadvantaged. The impact puts small children in harm's way by traffic, dangerous roads, weather, child predators and forcing parents to make unthinkable choices. I urge you to reject this unthinkable cut and to protect California's schoolchildren! Bring sanity, balance, co-operation and common sense to the budget conversation in Sacramento!

As it turns out, Kevan Miller's style of play is exactly what the Boston Bruins are looking for.
The big, physical defenseman signed a two-year, one-way contract through the 2015-16 season, with an annual cap hit of $800,000.
Miller, who has appeared in 16 games for the Bruins this season, has a goal and an assist with seven penalty minutes. The 26-year-old has skated in 19 games with the Providence Bruins this season and has registered two goals and three assists with 39 penalty minutes. He has skated in 154 career AHL games with Providence from 2011-2013, notching seven goals and 38 assists.
Miller played well in the Bruins' 3-2 win over the Kings on Sunday, knocking around Kings star Dustin Brown on numerous occasions.
"He was really solid for us tonight," Claude Julien said of Miller after Monday's game. "Big body, threw some heavy checks, and was a big factor in our win today because again, we're a little young back there."
Miller was asked about his future with the team after the game as well, where he said he was just taking things "one day at a time". He's undoubtedly feeling a lot better about that future today.

Natasha Hart, MBE – by Royal Appointment!
June 12, 2015 – Natasha Hart, founder and chief executive of Newham All Star Sports Academy (NASSA), has been made a Member of the British Empire (MBE) in the Queen's Birthday Honours list for services to Sport in East London.
In the 10 years since Natasha took her sons to Balaam Park to teach them basketball, NASSA has become one of the most successful and caring basketball clubs in the country.
Established as a charity in 2006 with just £20 in the bank, NASSA has made a huge impact on community sport in east London. It was the first basketball club in London to be awarded 5-star Club Mark status by Basketball England, while NASSA teams have won 16 National League titles since 2007.
Natasha's aim has always been to produce good citizens as much as great basketball players. The mentoring talks delivered by NASSA coaches under our Carry A Basketball Not A Blade (CABNAB) initiative have educated 2,000 young people every week about the dangers of knife crime and gang culture.
Natasha moved to east London from her native Russia 25 years ago and holds the unique distinction of having carried torches at consecutive Olympiads. She carried the Olympic Torch for the London 2012 Games and was then chosen to carry the Paralympic Torch ahead of the Sochi 2014 Winter Games.
On being awarded the MBE, Natasha said: "I'm bursting with pride. This is beyond anything I could ever have imagined. I was truly shocked when I opened the letter to tell me about the honour. I am so grateful.
"It was the farthest thing from my mind when I took my sons to the local park to show them basketball, the game I love, ten years ago. I just wanted to give them and their friends somewhere to play in a safe environment and something to look forward to each week.
"I want to personally thank everybody in the NASSA family for all of their hard work and dedication. If I could, I would share this honour with everyone in the NASSA family because the players, the parents, the coaches, the volunteers, they all deserve it."
NASSA goes East – for a day and an honour
June 1, 2015 – Visiting the Kensington residence of the Russian Ambassador to Britain was a world away from their daily lives for 40 young people, parents and coaches of Newham All Star Sports Academy this week.
Suited, booted and keen to impress, the 40-strong NASSA party was hosted by Ambassador Alexander Yakovenko as part of his commitment to the work done by NASSA founder Natasha Hart, who moved to the UK from her native Russia 25 years ago.
Mr Yakovenko laid on a guided tour of the residence, which has hosted heads of state, including former Prime Ministers Harold MacMillan and Sir Winston Churchill. The NASSA guests were then treated to a Russian tea party.
Players on NASSA's Under-14s National League team received their 2014-15 league winners' certificates from Mr Sergey Nalobin, Counsellor for Bilateral Relations at the Russian Embassy. Those Under-18s present received their 2014-15 league runner-up certificates.
In return, Mr Yakovenko was given a NASSA basketball jersey signed by all of the players in the NASSA delegation.
Natasha Hart said: "It was an amazing experience for everyone from NASSA and I want to say a huge public thank you to Mr. Yakovenko for the kind invitation.
"Our young people at NASSA are called All Stars for a reason – for their dedication to basketball, their schoolwork and to the causes they support like our anti-knife crime initiative CABNAB and anti-bullying. One of the great joys I have is being able to give them experiences like this as a reward."
NASSA's Under-14s are still one of the country's best
May 5, 2015 – NASSA's Under-14s maintained their marvellous record of achievement with a third-place finish at the Basketball England National Final Fours competition at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield.
It could have been even better for the side which has won the national title three times in the past four years. The NASSA team, coached by NASSA Head Coach Chris Facey, led their semi-final against London Greenhouse Pioneers South by as much as eight points in the third quarter. In the end, a heartbreaking 67-65 loss in the final seconds cost NASSA the chance to defend their title in the final against Worthing Thunder.
The NASSA side showed commendable spirit to overcome their disappointment and defeat Manchester Magic 69-61 in the third place play-off.
NASSA Chief Executive Natasha Hart said: "It is a great achievement for NASSA to have the third-best Under-14s side in the country and, with a little luck, it could have been even better. What pleased me most of all was the sportsmanship and the mature attitude our players showed.
"At NASSA we always say that we want to create good basketball players but that it is even more important that we create good citizens. Having said that, we want our national title back and we'll be doing everything we can next season to win it again."
NASSA receives minibus from Dennis Wise and a visit from the Russian Ambassador
March 19, 2015 – In the tenth anniversary year of its first informal basketball session in an east London park, Newham All Star Sports Academy (NASSA) has received its first minibus, from former Chelsea and England footballer Dennis Wise on behalf of the Dennis Wise and Frankham Consultancy Group Trust.
The 17-seater vehicle will be used to transport NASSA's seven age group teams to away Basketball England National League fixtures. It will also be used to help support disabled young people who attend NASSA's inclusive wheelchair basketball sessions.
With many of NASSA's 100 club members in attendance, as well as NASSA founder and Chief Executive Natasha Hart and Head Coach Chris Facey, the presentation of the minibus was made at the University of East London's SportsDock building. The ribbon was cut by a special invitee to the event, the Russian Ambassador to the UK, Mr Alexander Yakovenko.
Dennis Wise said the choice of NASSA as recipients of a minibus marked a departure from the Trust's usual policy, but added that the east London welcome he and his fellow trustees Steve Frankham and Becky Bosman had received from the NASSA coaches, parents and players confirmed to them that they had made the right decision.
He said: "Everything we do is for kids, so that was an important factor. We normally donate minibuses to special needs kids and Down's Syndrome kids, but we know that Natasha has been trying for a long, long time to help the situation at NASSA.
"As a group, we looked at it and we felt it was a good cause. Coming here today, seeing the bus and all of the kids, as well as seeing Chris the coach, who's fantastic, you can see it's going to be a worthy cause. We're really pleased that we have done this today. Good luck to them all.
"It's lovely to be part of the NASSA family now. Natasha's invited us to come back in September for their 10-year anniversary event. If I'm around, I'd love to pop back to say 'Hi' and make sure that there are no dents in the bus!"
Natasha Hart added: "We cannot say thank you enough to Dennis, Steve and everyone at the Frankham Group Charitable Trust. This minibus will make a huge difference to NASSA and to all of the players' parents who have spent so much money over the years helping us take the teams to games.
"It is a really special feeling that they thought of us as worthy of receiving one of their minibuses and we will always have a smile on our faces when we see their name on it."
Mr Yakovenko said: "It's a great pleasure for me to be a guest at this very special event today. Team sports are all about uniting people regardless of their religion and race and the Newham All Star Sports Academy (NASSA) is a perfect example of a charity that does just that.
"Having won all the existing awards in this sport, the Newham All Star Sports Academy has been hugely successful, and most importantly, it has played a transformational role in the lives of local young people, providing high-quality community service in East London.
"NASSA's trainees not only achieve athletic excellence but what is equally important, practice teamwork and understanding. They learn how to surpass themselves and how to win, how to think big and put their dreams into reality. These invaluable lessons in life will surely secure a better future for every young person involved. As a diplomat, I can fully appreciate the importance of this charity's truly inspirational activity and I am especially proud to know that Ms Natasha Hart its founder and leader, is my compatriot."
NASSA plays its home games at SportsDock as part of its community partnership with the University of East London (UEL). David Cosford, Director of Sport at UEL, said: "Today has been another milestone event. NASSA has been a great supporter of our institution and without NASSA's commitment, our SportsDock home would not be the facility it is today. I hope that we can enjoy another 10 years of sporting success together."
CABNAB receives support and recognition from 10 Downing St
January 7, 2015 – Newham All Star Sports Academy (NASSA) player Anthony Okereafor has received an award from the Prime Minister for his work in using basketball to combat knife crime.
He has been named a Point of Light by the Rt Hon David Cameron for the Carry A Basketball, Not A Blade (CABNAB) campaign he established in 2008 after two of his friends were stabbed to death within weeks of each other.
In a letter to Anthony, the Prime Minister wrote: "Sport has a fantastic power to change lives. By founding Carry A Basketball Not A Blade you have given young people a safe place to be and are raising awareness of the dangers they face if they choose to carry a knife. You have engaged an impressive number of young people and schools in your important campaign.
"I believe it is my duty as Prime Minister to hold up examples of great volunteering and service as an inspiration to others. Through your hard work and dedication you are making our communities stronger and our country a better place. On behalf of the whole country, I hope this Points of Light Award can be a small way of saying thank you."
Over the past six years, the unique CABNAB sessions, which incorporate mentoring talks from NASSA coaches about the dangers of knife crime and gang culture, have reached 15,000 young people across east London.
Anthony and NASSA have also formed close links with the Metropolitan Police office. Police officers regularly visit the club to deliver presentations to the young people on the dangers and consequences of carrying a knife.
Through NASSA, Anthony has rolled out his campaign to the neighbouring London Boroughs of Hackney, Tower Hamlets, Redbridge and Waltham Forest. In the next few years he is looking to take turn CABNAB into a national campaign.
Anthony said: "Too many young people are dying just because they happen to walk into the 'wrong' area. If we can get to the youth of today before they slip into gangs or are involved in gang culture itself, getting them to do something positive and constructive like basketball, the impact will be lives with great prospects. To change just one young life is an achievement. CABNAB has inspired many.
"It is amazing and very humbling to receive this award from the Prime Minister but it really belongs to everyone at Newham All Star Sports Academy (NASSA) for their commitment to our young people."
It's official – Coach Chris is the UK's best community coach!
November 20, 2014 – Everybody at NASSA already knew about our amazing Head Coach Chris Facey and now the whole of Britain does, too, after he was last night named as the Community Coach of the Year at the UK Coaching Awards 2014.
Chris received his trophy from HRH Princess Anne, The Princess Royal in front of the UK's leading sports coaches at the City Chambers in Glasgow on Wednesday evening. He later returned to the stage and was given a standing ovation as he picked up a special runner-up trophy in the overall Coach of Year category, beaten only by Gary Street, who led England to their Women's Rugby Union World Cup triumph.
The UK Coaching Awards are the country's most prestigious coaching awards and Chris, whose first name is actually Kelvin although he is universally known as Coach Chris, was both shocked and humbled to be recognised by his peers.
"I didn't think I was anywhere close to winning the award," he said. "They called out my name and I didn't hear it really. It was called out two or three times and I said: 'Me?' I was very emotional. I don't know how I held myself together. Community Coach of the Year in the UK? I wasn't trying to run in any race, I was just given a job to do. And I realised that if I wanted to better the kids, I had to better myself in a certain way. I'm overjoyed and I'm coming back to work even harder now.
"As a community coach you have to work hard like any young man but you also have got to have some kind of passion and just love what you do. There is not too much money in being a community sports coach but passion is what you need to teach.
"It was a special evening. I loved sharing my thoughts with the other coaches and hearing theirs. And I got a chance to shake a royal hand, too. Meeting Princess Anne was so great. I couldn't have imagined ever having a conversation with her, but she gave me this amazing smile and I felt like I had known her from yesterday. She just asked me to keep pushing myself. I felt very comfortable talking to her and I invited her to come and see what we do at NASSA and the kind of kids we have here. She told me she would love to if it can be arranged."
For most of NASSA's 100 club members, Chris is NASSA. He coaches them basketball skills and mentors them through their teenage years in one of London's most deprived boroughs. He is passionate about their commitment to school work, gives the NASSA young people the drive to get extra qualifications at school and broadens their horizons.
NASSA player Sidney Ekio said: "We've had a lot of deep chats and I feel like Coach Chris isn't really my coach, he's more of a family member, somebody that I look up to and really respect. He's an extremely good basketball coach as well. I've played under a few coaches, at regional level and for England and I haven't come across another coach who has got his experience or his people skills. He's able to put across a complex idea in a very simple way whereby everyone on the team, whatever their ability, can capture it instantly and work with it."
The parents of the NASSA young people are just as grateful to Chris for the influence he has had on their children.
"Chris doesn't just talk about basketball to the kids, he talks to them about life. That is the difference between him and other coaches," said Jenny Mendioro. "Coach Chris has the patience to teach the kids basketball on the court and behaviour off it. I know that my son is being mentored by someone who can teach him how to be a good man."
Another NASSA parent Marina Gunn is equally effusive in her praise for Chris. She said: "What Chris does as a coach that no-one else does is gives himself. Young people want to play basketball because of him. He treats every kid as his own. He prioritises schoolwork and being respectful to your parents over basketball. That's the greatest thing of all because not every kid is going to play in the NBA, but he tries to get them to have an education. He lives and breathes it all. He's absolutely fantastic."

Hollywood star Ving Rhames visits NASSA
October 16, 2014 – Mission Impossible star Ving Rhames made a surprise visit to NASSA, giving coaching tips and inspiring the young NASSA players.
The American actor, who is in London filming Mission Impossible 5 and who has also starred in Pulp Fiction and Con Air, spent four hours with us.
He praised the NASSA youngsters for the level of their fundamentals skill and for their commitment to the game of basketball.
Ving met Carry A Basketball Not A Blade (CABNAB) creator Anthony Okereafor to learn about what the initiative is doing to help reduce knife crime in east London.
He will return to Newham next month for a basketball challenge with NASSA players. The tournament will be dedicated to CABNAB and to the six young lives in Newham lost as a result of knife crime in the past 12 months.
NASSA Director Natasha Hart said: "It was amazing for the young people to have a Hollywood actor come and watch them play. It is really great to have the support of Mr Rhames and we are already looking forward to his next visit."
Metropolitan Police Commissioner presents award to NASSA
July 7, 2014 – NASSA has become the first community sports project in Newham to receive a special award from Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe 'in recognition of NASSA's outstanding work with young people in Newham.'
Sir Bernard spent two hours watching the NASSA training session at Rokeby School in Canning Town, talking to coaches, parents and players as well as attending a knife crime workshop. The Commissioner was told about NASSA's Carry A Basketball Not A Blade (CABNAB) initiative, which reaches out to 2,000 young people in 65 local schools and colleges across Newham every week, and met its creator Anthony Okeareafor.
Sir Bernard said: "The Metropolitan Police award we made to NASSA is not something that we give to everybody. I'm really impressed by the project. Clearly the young people are enjoying it, keeping themselves fit and getting the sport that they can take part in.
"It's very well organised. To get 2,000 young people involved in this project is fantastic. They are getting some positive messages about not getting involved in knife crime and not getting involved in the gangs, which is good. I'm glad to see that Newham Police are getting involved and contributing. If we can help, we will do."
NASSA founder Natasha Hart said: "It's amazing to receive such an award and it was such an honour to have the Metropolitan Police Commissioner come down to Newham to see what we do here. He took the time to speak to a lot of people and asked a lot of questions about our work." Read the full story here.
CHARITY OF THE YEAR! – NASSA is on top of the charity world
June 13, 2014 – Newham All Star Sports Academy (NASSA) has received the ultimate accolade by being announced as Charity of the Year in The Charity Awards 2014 – the most prestigious awards programme in the charity sector.
The highly coveted honour was announced last night at a star-studded awards evening hosted by comedian Stephen Frost at London's Grosvenor House Hotel.
Earlier in the evening, NASSA was chosen as winner of the Children and Youth category because of the impact that our Carry A Basketball Not A Blade (CABNAB) initiative has had on our young people and the local community in east London.
The overall Charity of the Year was then selected from the 10 category winners. For NASSA it is the highest possible praise for the work that began with an impromptu basketball coaching session in an east London park in 2005.
Charity Awards judge Sir Christopher Kelly described NASSA as "a really energetic organisation doing substantial things to help the local community."
NASSA founder Natasha Hart said: "We are used to winning on the basketball court but we could never have imagined winning off it in such a manner. This award is for everyone connected with NASSA – our wonderful coaches, our dedicated volunteers, the parents who entrust us with their children, the community partners who support us, our patrons, the Rt Hon Stephen Timms, MP for Newham and Rt Rev Mgr John Armitage VG and, of course, our young people. They are the reason we do what we do and they have achieved so much."
The Charity Awards, which celebrated its 15th year last night, is a year-round programme run by Civil Society Media in partnership with the Charities Aid Foundation. Read more about NASSA's night of glory here: http://www.charityawards.co.uk/winners-2014/
Following The Charity Awards, NASSA founder Natasha Hart was interviewed on the Gaby Roslin Show on BBC London 94.9. Listen to the interview here:
NASSA coaches honoured at London Sports Awards
June 5, 2014 – The dedication of coaches Chris Facey and Aurimas Verbukas was recognised last night at the Lee Valley VeloPark, formerly the Olympic Velodrome, on a stunning evening of success for NASSA.
Both earned top honours at the London Awards for Sport & Physical Activity 2014 organised by London Sport, The Sport and Physical Activity Partnership for London. Chris was named as Coach of the Year, while Aurimas picked up the Volunteer of the Year award. Each of them beat stiff competition in their respective categories to earn a well-deserved reward for all of their tremendous hard work at NASSA over the past 12 months.
Chris, NASSA's head coach, has been with us since we started in 2006. He spends all of his time – whatever he's got – coaching as many sessions as NASSA can fit in for him. He coaches up to 20 hours per week in the extra-curricular schools and college sessions NASSA runs. Chris also gives 25-30 hours of his time on a voluntary basis to the NASSA club programme.
As a mentor for the young people, many of them who have troubled home lives, he is like a dad. He is also requested for at every school he goes to. They all say: "We want Coach Chris." Read Chris' full story here.
Aurimas came to NASSA for three months to improve his English when he moved to the UK form Lithuania. That was five years ago. He gives up over 30 hours each week to coach our basketball teams. What makes this especially remarkable is that he combines this with his full-time job as a supervisor for a postal company. He truly has NASSA in his blood.
Aurimas is coach of NASSA's Under-18s side. He is also assistant coach to Chris for our National League champions Under-13s boys side. Read Aurimas' full story here.
NASSA also received an Honourable Mention in the Community Sport Project of the Year category.
Sad news from the NASSA family
May 15, 2014 – It is with great sadness that we have to pay tribute to our NASSA coach, volunteer and friend Zawdie Ogunseye (Zoodie), who has passed away suddenly at the age of just 33.
Zoodie has been involved with NASSA for the past three years. Only last week he was with us at the University of East London SportsDock at an event he organised to present certificates to our National Champions Under-13s boys' side. Zoodie contributed hugely to the NASSA family, starting as a volunteer, driving and travelling with junior and senior teams across the country, organising events and sharing in our many successes.
He will be hugely missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with Zoodie's wife and three children.
The NASSA family
NASSA Under-13s are National Champions again!
April 7, 2014 – Newham All Star Sports Academy's (NASSA) Under-13s basketball team have been crowned national champions for the third year in succession. Led by coach Chris Facey and assistant coach Aurimas Verbukas, they won the 2014 England Basketball National Final Fours competition at the Worcester Arena on Saturday, beating Leicester Warriors 117-62 in the final.
The victory marked a third consecutive triumph in that age group for NASSA captain Enoch Denkyirah who first played for the Under-13s side when he was just 10.
Speaking of the win, NASSA 's director Natasha Hart said: "This is phenomenal. It is only our seventh year of competing in the National League and we have won the Under-13s championship three years in a row."….. Read More.

NASSA Founder Carries Sochi 2014 Winter Paralympics Torch
March 3, 2014 – NASSA founder Natasha Hart passed over the Sochi 2014 Winter Paralympics Flame in London's Trafalgar Square yesterday.

London Basketball Charity Recognised in Social Change Awards 2013

It was recognised in the 'Everyday Impact – Long Term Enterprises' category at the awards ceremony in central London in December 2013.

Pope Francis calls nuns, leaves message
VATICAN CITY – Pope Francis has made another one of his cold calls to wish a group of nuns in a Spanish convent Happy New Year. Only he got their answering machine, instead.
"What are the nuns doing that they can't answer the phone?" Francis asked in the message he left, the recording of which was obtained by Spain's El Mundo newspaper and broadcast on Italian media Saturday.
"This is Pope Francis. I wanted to offer you greetings for the end of the year. Maybe I'll try to call again later. May God bless you," he said.
Francis has made a habit out of calling people out of the blue, often checking in with ordinary folk who have written him about their hardships. He places the calls himself, as evidenced by the message.

Non Trek Fic - Doctor Who - The Many Doctors

Location: Australia
Re: Non Trek Fic - Doctor Who - The Many Doctors
Chapter 8 - Interlude
A quarter of an hour later, the companions met the Doctor in the console room.
Vile has been taken into custody? Tamsin asked.
He has been, we are free to go on our way, the Doctor said.
So, are we going on our way? Felicia asked.
Yes, the Doctor said. He input a random course on the console and set the TARDIS on its way.
Where are we going? Kiara asked.
Randomly somewhere, in an attempt to find Felicias Doctor, she needs to return to him, the Doctor said.
I guess so, Tamsin said. She cant stay here, she would invariably give the Doctor hints about his future, like Ms. Song does when she cant help herself, not that that happens often.
Good idea, but the TARDIS wouldnt know where to find its future self! Felicia said.
Not necessarily. I once found out that the TARDIS had catalogued console rooms that didnt exist yet. Perhaps it knows where it is going to be shortly after the incident in which you are transferred here, the Doctor said.
That makes no sense, a catalogue of console rooms that didnt exist yet? Tamsin asked.
That was what it said, the Doctor said.
Still makes no sense, Tamsin said.
It doesnt have to, the important thing is that it is likely that we will find Felicias Doctor, the Doctor said.
I suppose so, Tamsin said.
I hope that you are right, Felicia said.
As the Doctor left the console room, Kiara looked at the console readout in thought. It just says, Random course plotted, she said.
No mention of an intercept course? Tamsin asked.
No. It only says Random course plotted, Kiara said. Were going somewhere, but it isnt where the Doctor will be after Felicia comes back here, she thought.
Keep an eye on it, whilst Tamsin and I talk about our respective universities, Felicia said.
Ok, Kiara said.
There is not much to talk about. When I am there, I am studying History at the University of Exeter, Tamsin said.
But what is the University of Exeter like? Felicia asked.
Where do you go? Tamsin asked, not sure if Felicia had told her before they had arrived at Ilkona.
The University of East Anglia, I had finished my second year in my Economics degree when I started travelling with the Doctor. It was the end of the summer vacation when the TARDIS started going off course, Felicia said.
You did say that you had only been travelling with him for five months, Tamsin said.
Yes, Felicia said.
I guess that you have got to know him well?
They continued talking about their experiences at university.
Many hours later whilst all of them were in the console room there was a jerk, and the Cloister Bell rang briefly...
The Doctor got up first. Strange, he said, as he looked at the scanner.
What is strange? Tamsin asked, as she got up.
We have entered another universe, the Doctor said.
Another universe? Felicia thought.
Does this happen often? Kiara asked.
Not very often, most of the time the TARDIS wouldnt be working properly, the Doctor said.
Why would that be? Felicia asked.
More importantly, where in that universe are we?
The TARDIS runs off the Vortex in its native universe. Another universe, therefore no vortex, the Doctor said. He went to the scanner. Were in some sort of military complex in central Colorado.
The companions could see that the TARDIS was surrounded by gun-toting MPs. Thats not good, Tamsin thought.
Lets find out about this universe, shall we? the Doctor said as he went towards the door...

In reference to the article concerning McAlister's restaurant leaving the Monroe Airport. It seems that any restaurant will have a tough time making a go of it in the terminal. There simply is not enough boarding passengers dining to make it profitable. A restaurant must have some of the local residents eating breakfast and lunch in order to survive. That is the only way restaurants survived in the old airport.
Local residents now will not frequent the airport restaurant because there is no parking. You would not be able to call for a to-go order at the airport restaurant due to the fact that the minute you leave your vehicle, someone is writing you a parking ticket.
The lounge will ultimately have the same problem because it needs local residents to frequent it in order to survive. I am amazed that in order to add the necessary essentials to make this facility a full-service restaurant it cost an additional $600,000 plus in change orders. Hopefully in the future our airport will become completely functional.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
Jen and Sean were amazing!! Jen was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was calm but helped us stay on track. She had wonderful ideas for different shots and was just a pleasure to work with!!! All of the pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL and she is a true gem!!!!
Jen was absolutely amazing with my daughter's wedding on December 7 and with her engagement shoot!!! They were engaged in California. Because Jen lived in California for a period of time, she knew the area well for photographing. She did a phenomenal job on the engagement shoot!!! Her sneak peak of the wedding is incredible - I can't wait for the rest of the pics!!! She was an incredible sport to photograph such gorgeous outdoor pics in the snow with temperatures in the single digits!! She has a second photographer and an assistant. The coverage was unbeatable!! The best part is that she was absolutely amazing to work with!!! She brought out the best in the bride and groom!!!!!
Jen was incredibly wonderful to work with and we will certainly use her again in all our future grand moments. We met Jen at a bridal show and I knew from that moment that she was exactly the photographer that we were looking for. Jen is very professional and poised which made us feel very confident. We wish we could give Jen more than 5 stars for flexibility; she was more than flexible with us. Jen was very open and assuring that this was our day making sure we got the photos that we wanted with family and also making sure to let us know when there was a great photo opportunity with the sunset and other moments during our wedding. Jen made us and our families feel very relaxed and not rushed at all. In fact, she made us so comfortable that it was like we have known her for years rather than six months or so!! The quality was superb and perfect. Jen is amazing!
Jen was very friendly and professional. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer! She captured moments that I didn't even know she was around for! She was snapping pictures constantly. The formal pictures are absolutely beautiful! My wedding was at the Botanic Gardens, and you wouldn't even know we were in the city! Multiple people have told me the pictures look like we are in a fairytale! I am so happy with my pictures, and am so glad that I chose her as my photographer! I would highly recommend Jen Bosma Photography!
Jen was GREAT to work with! We ended up with so many wonderful shots, I had a hard time narrowing them down! Fantastic!!!
We could not have asked for a better photographer than Jen for our wedding. She was incredibly flexible with the date and location for our engagement photos and made the whole process as smooth as possible. We couldn't believe how transparent she became at the wedding, which was so important to us because we had a smaller wedding. Jen was professional and very easy to get along with. And to top this all off, she took some of the most amazing photos of our wedding. Again, we could not have asked for more and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks again Jen!
Kady and Chase Doelling
Kady and Chase Doelling
Jen and Sean were both extremely friendly and flexible! It rained before our ceremony right when we were going to take pictures and Jen kept assuring me it would work and we would get the shots, sure enough it cleared up long enough to take the pictures! They gave us solid direction without being the least bit bossy. Their experience and artistry really shined through all of the creative, romantic, and fun shots they took. During the reception they were always present without being intrusive. They were so calming and knew exactly all the pictures we would want. It was great not being stressed at all about the pictures, Jen was awesome!! We would highly recommend them for any kind of photography!!!
Jen was better than we could have ever hoped for. First of all, there are several people in our families that are not exactly photogenic. She somehow managed to make everyone look great. We also told her that we wanted the pictures to go as quickly as possible and she did that so that the bride and groom actually got to be a part of their reception. She got everyone where they were supposed to be and did it with an easy yet authoritative style. During the reception she and her team were there but somehow they just blended into the scenery. The day after the wedding our florist asked us about who we used for the photographer because she had not every worked with Jen and she was extremely impressed as well. We got the pictures back and they are all amazing. The shots she managed to get are spectacular and they completely capture the moment.
Jen was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was helpful in determining what style of pictures my Husband and I wanted for both the engagement and wedding photos. She was very organized and responded quickly whenever we had an inquiry. In addition, Jen was flexible with weather changes and location changes. We really enjoyed working with Jen Bosma Photography and couldn't be happier with our choice. The photos we have seen so far definitely surpassed our expectations. The day was captured perfectly. Thank you Jen!
I could not be happier with my decision to hire Jen Bosma to capture our wedding day. I met her parents at a bridal show in the fall before she made her move back to Colorado. After one phone conversation and reviewing her work on her website, I went out on a limb and hired her. After our engagement session I was so thrilled that the risk I had taken had paid off. Her photography style and expertise made us feel so comfortable, and allowed our natural personalities to come through in the photos. Jen was so flexible with helping us find the scenery we wanted for our engagement session. We wanted to have beautiful winter photos, and when Denver was not getting snow, she suggested Eldora. The area was beautiful, had plenty of snow on the ground, and we even got lucky enough for it to actually be snowing. When it came time for the wedding, she was always happy to answer and quick to respond to my questions leading up to the big day. When the weather forecast for our May wedding started to look more like an early spring wedding, she was prepared with multiple potential photograph locations. Despite the weather being gray and rainy the way Jen was able to capture the light coming off the trees; the weather appears to be a beautiful sunny day. We are so happy with the photos of our wedding day. She captured every moment beautifully, from the candid shots of the ceremony, to the formal posed photos, to the thousands of photos she took of the reception. For years we will be able to look at the wonderful photos Jen took, and remember exactly how we felt on our wedding day! We will definitely be calling Jen Bosma for any future family photos we need!
Jen was amazing!!! From the moment we met with her she was helpful, generous with her time and most of all professional. We were impressed with her organization on our first meeting, and what really sold us was that she had a worksheet for us to fill out so that she could insure we got all of the pictures on our wedding day that we wanted without harassing us on the day of. She was always flexible, willing to work with us, and easy to get a hold of. Our wedding day was so perfect, and Jen caught all of the amazing moments. We were so happy with our pictures, and Jen has even been quick to respond four months later when we had questions about our album. I would highly recommend Jen Bosma photography and will use her again in the future!!!
We loved Jen, she was amazing. We were so happy to have worked with Jen on our special day. Our photographs were wonderful and we are so happy that she was able to capture our special day with such beautiful photographs.
Jen photographed our wedding and I can not say enough good things about her. She was so fun and easy to work with. She made my husband and I feel comfortable. I got married on a Saturday and she showed me a sneak peak of the photos on Monday. Her work is amazing. I will recommend Jen Bosma to all of my friends!

Although I liked my wedding pictures, some important shots were missed, such as a picture of the rings, there is only one kissing picture at the ceremony, and there are no pictures of our families together... However, still being positive, I asked/emailed JBosma to edit about 5 pictures I liked to remove the people walking by in the backgrounds, the campers and trucks in the background, etc... To my disappointment JBosma could not correct the photos and basically blamed me for choosing a spot with people, campers, and trucks around and further told me to seek the help of an outside photographer to fix the photos and make my wedding album... If you are looking to have your wedding photos edited and re-touched at all, look elsewhere!
Here is Jen's response to me regaurding my request to edit pictures:
Hi Lisa,
I first off want to start by saying Chris has been a valued member of my team for the past 4 years and his photography skills and post production skills are to the highest standard that I expect of all my photographers. I would also like to let you know that we give a very adequate representation of our work in the albums we show you at your initial meetings and in none of those photos do we ever "airbrush" any photos, such as the example you have sent me. I also would like to inform you that you all choose your photo location and we can not help that there are people or cars or buses in any of those photos, that is just a part of the wedding day, and the venues you choose. When I received this email I was actually quite shocked as not only have you written Chris numerous thank you emails, but you have even gone as far as to post a great review on yelp. So I am a bit curious as to if you were not happy with your product why you would not have spoken to me earlier and why you would have expressed otherwise in your reviews. I spoke to Chris and he told me he had done this work for you at no additional charge out of his own kindness, and in all honesty had he told me he was doing this for you I would have told him to make sure he was charging you for the time he put in.
So while I do take your comments into consideration, I also know that the images we supplied to you were to the highest quality as well as true to the style of photography that you hired us for. I would recommend that you continue to use the outside photographer to retouch the images you like, as well as look into having them put together you albums. I have spoken to Chris and we have both agreed that it would be best for you to do any other work with the photos outside of his company or mine.
Jen did an amazing job. She photographed our engagement pictures as well as our wedding and I can't wait to see the pictures of the day of cause I know that will be beautiful. She was great to work with and knows what she is doing. She helped make the wedding day run smoothly and would definitely use her again.
Jen was awesome to work with. She is very layed back which is wonderful to reduce stress on your wedding day. She is very organized and professional. She keeps things moving along without being pushy. Her costs are very reasonable. I would definitely recommend her!

- Stock Market Analysis - The stock market usually has a good year after a great year so
look for this in 2014. I give detailed stock market analysis about once a week so traders know the key support and resistance

Stocks - I do trade penny stocks that are listed on the NYSE, NASDAQ, or AMEX exchange. I rarely trade OTC
stocks because they are mostly a scam. If you want to increase your trading capital and avoid huge losses, stay away
from OTC/Pink Sheets Stocks. Even if you don't join my stock picks group, take this free advice to heart. 99%
of companies that trade on the OTC markets are pump and dump scams. I want to invest and trade legitimate stocks.- Support & Resistance Levels - When trading a momentum stock, I always watch key support

WSU chips away on Day 4
FROM PULLMAN — Things got a little heated on more than one occasion at Washington State's spring practice Thursday, though nothing too outlandish went down. Otherwise, things were pretty standard. Read on.
Well, not totally standard. The Cougars were without senior safety Deone Bucannon for the last half of practice, as he walked out with the training staff about midway through. Couldn't tell what happened. Bucannon was on the sidelines without his shoulder pads on for a while, then put them back on before it was decided he needed further evaulation elsewhere. Of course, injuries are not discussed, so this may be a wait-and-see situation. … Tweeted this news earlier, but linebacker Darren Markle has been removed from the roster and is no longer with the team. Markle struggled with injuries and didn't play last season. … On the injury front, the same group of players sat out — Logan Mayes, Jake Rodgers, Brent Anderson, Feddie Davey, Alex Jackson, Robert Barber and Chester Su'a. And Mansel Simmons remains out, as well.
… We mentioned it was chippy. The first notable instance of such chippiness occurred when junior quarterback Connor Halliday became visibly upset at walk-on receiver Willie Roach over what Halliday thought, apparently, was a particularly egregious dropped pass (or maybe a couple of them. I was watching the other side of the field and didn't see anything until the yelling started). The two exchanged, uh, words — though Halliday's were much louder — and had to be separated after they exchanged shoves, too. But that was all it was. … There was also a minor skirmish on the last play of team session, which ended on an Austin Apodaca touchdown pass. It's all in the competition, defensive coordinator Mike Breske said afterward. "Coach (Mike Leach) is big about winning our individual battles, and there'a lot of individual battles going on. You're going to have that," Breske said.
… It appears freshman Robert Lewis will be given every chance to earn some playing time at receiver. He's getting quite a few reps through the first four days of practice, and his shiftiness continues to be a problem for WSU's defensive backs. … There seemed to be more "explosive" plays, as Leach might call them, on both sides of the ball today. Isiah Myers went high to make a nice catch in the end zone on a pass from Halliday, though Damante Horton earlier broke up a pass thrown by Halliday to Myers near the sideline on an out-route. Darryl Monroe got the better of Theron West on a swing pass — and by "got the better of," I mean he hit him immediately after the ball arrived and with great force — and Cyrus Coen made a nice play on an inside receiver screen pass to Kristoff Williams that wound up losing yards. … Halliday's best throw of the day might have been a short fade to Bobby Ratliff that wound up a touchdown, and Apodaca tossed a long pass down the right sideline for Gabe Marks — albeit amid busted coverage — that went for a long gain before David Bucannon finally caught up with Marks and brought him down, as Breske shouted irritated encouragement about not giving up on the play. … There's still a lot of experimentation going on with personnel. For example, the offensive line at times featured, from left to right, Jacob Seydel, John Fullington, Zach Brevick, Denzell Dotson and Eduardo Middleton. And, at times, you saw Gunnar Eklund, Joe Dahl, Elliott Bosch, Matt Goetz and Rico Forbes playing together. Niu Sale had a bunch of reps on Tuesday. So what we're seeing is true to what Clay McGuire said on Tuesday: they're going to give a bunch of guys a bunch of opportunities to prove themselves, and continue to breed competition. That goes back to the increased depth they have there. … Plenty of shuffling defensively, too. Ivan McLennan and Kache Palacio are locked in a nice little battle at the buck linebacker spot with Mayes sidelined. Sophomore linebacker Jeremiah Allison is another guy who could play a lot more on defense this year. Breske said he's been most impressed by the strength and improved physique of WSU's defensive linemen — Xavier Cooper, Junior Gauta, Toni Pole and Matthew Bock are about where you'd expect them.
That's all for now.
