From Comcast SportsNetRENTON, Wash. (AP) -- Instead of reveling in shaking 29 years of postseason road futility and completely looking ahead to another cross-country trip, Pete Carroll was left waiting Monday for the results of an MRI that only confirmed what the Seattle Seahawks originally feared.Seattle will go forward in the postseason without pass-rushing defensive end Chris Clemons, who suffered a torn ACL and torn meniscus in his left knee in Sunday's 24-14 win at Washington.Clemons was hurt when it appeared his cleat got stuck in the messy, dirty turf at FedEx Field early in the third quarter. Seattle was immediately concerned the injury could be serious and Monday's scan confirmed it."It's a big loss for us in a lot of ways," Carroll said. "Chris has been a great football player and just a symbol of consistency in the years that we've had him, but he's been a great leader for us too and a tough dude and a guy we've become very comfortable playing with and we'll miss the heck out of him."The loss of Clemons and uncertainty about the availability of kicker Steven Hauschka, who suffered a calf strain, overshadowed what should have been a day of celebration after Seattle won its first road playoff game since beating Miami on Dec. 31, 1983.Clemons was the most consistent pass rusher for the Seahawks since arriving in a trade from Philadelphia before the 2010 season. Clemons had 11 sacks in both 2010 and 11 and followed up a new contract over the summer with 11 sacks this season.Rookie first-round pick Bruce Irvin, drafted to be a pass-rushing complement to Clemons, will get the first shot to start. Irvin set a franchise rookie record with eight sacks, but the real challenge will be whether he can hold up in the run game, an area where Clemons did well."This is Bruce's opportunity. This is what we drafted him to play and we'll see how he does," Carroll said. "We expect him to do really well as he steps up."Players were not available at the Seahawks facility after arriving back in Seattle in the early hours of Monday morning. Clemons tweeted, "I want to thank everyone for ... prayers. I will be ready for next season. We still got a Super Bowl to win!"Even with Clemons going down, the Seahawks continued to display a level of resolve that has now carried them to six straight wins and eight of their last nine. Despite falling behind 14-0, Seattle solved the defensive problems that allowed Washington to roll down the field on its first two possessions. In turn, Russell Wilson, Marshawn Lynch and the Seahawks offense was given time to chip away at the two-touchdown deficit.The 14-point hole was the largest deficit overcome in Seahawks playoff history and the largest of any game this season. Wilson directed Seattle back from a 23-10 fourth-quarter deficit to beat New England 24-23 in Week 6. Being down 14 in the first quarter seemed easy compared to that."I think people take notice we've put together a lot of games together," Carroll said. "When you look at our schedule you can misread the schedule a little bit if you just look at the W's and the L's. We've played really good solid football for a long time. It hasn't just sprung up at the end of the season."Seattle's sudden defensive change was helped by hobbling Washington quarterback Robert Griffin III, but also by the Seahawks not overthinking. Carroll said he was concerned that with all the intricate details of learning how Washington runs its unique offense that his defenders could be thinking too much early in the game.But instead of sticking with the zone-read plays Seattle was ready for, the Redskins simply used Alfred Morris to run right at the Seahawks. Washington had 129 total yards in the first quarter and just 74 the rest of the way.The sticky defense allowed Wilson and Lynch time to get Seattle's offense clicking. After falling behind 14-0, the Seahawks had five drives of 60 or more yards, including a 68-yard drive to start the second half that ended without points after Lynch fumbled at the Washington 1. Lynch atoned for the mistake with his go-ahead 27-yard TD run in the fourth quarter.Lynch carried 12 times for 99 yards after halftime. Seattle rushed for 224 yards as a team, the highest-total in franchise history for a playoff game, and third time during its six-game win streak they have topped 200 yards on the ground."We haven't been as solid as we are now," Carroll said. "We're much more solid in our thinking and mentality and just the resolve about everything we're doing."Notes: Carroll said both offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell and defensive coordinator Gus Bradley are focused on the game at Atlanta even as both are courted by other teams for possible head coaching jobs. Seattle has granted permission for Bradley to speak with Philadelphia and Bevell with Chicago. ... Carroll said the team would have kickers in on Tuesday to try out because of the uncertainty about Hauschka's calf. ... The Seahawks may also look at linebackers Mike Morgan and K.J. Wright as pass-rush options with Clemons out and Irvin filling his role.
Report: Celtics likely to guarantee Amir Johnson's $12M deal for next season
Report: Celtics likely to guarantee Amir Johnson's $12M deal for next season
The Celtics will likely guarantee the second year of Amir Johnson's two-year, $24 million deal he signed last season, the Boston Globe reported.
Hearing that it's likely the Celtics will guarantee Amir Johnson's $12 million contract for next season.— Adam Himmelsbach (@AdamHimmelsbach) June 30, 2016
Johnson, 29, a 6-9 forward, signed as a free agent last summer, averaged 7.3 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 79 regular season games for the Celtics and 8.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in the six-game, first-round playoff loss to the Atlanta Hawks.
Report: Celtics to make qualifying offers to Sullinger, Zeller
Report: Celtics to make qualifying offers to Sullinger, Zeller
The Celtics will make qualifying offers to Jared Sullinger and Tyler Zeller by the Friday deadline, the Boston Herald reports.
According to league-related sources, Celts to give qualifying offers to Jared Sullinger & Tyler Zeller, making them restricted free agents.— Steve Bulpett (@SteveBHoop) June 29, 2016
With offers of $4.4 million to Sullinger and $3.7 million to Zeller, the two will become restricted free agents, meaning the Celtics have can match any offer sheet they sign. The two would have become unrestricted free agents without the qualifying offers.
Sullinger could take the offer to become an unrestricted free agent next summer, but the Herald reported Zeller would likely be looking elsewhere to find a bigger role after his playing time decreased last season.
Sullinger started 73 games and averaged 10.3 points and 8.3 rebounds in the regular season. He averaged 5.2 points and 4.5 rebounds in 13.5 minutes in the first-round playoff loss to the Atlanta Hawks and lost his starting job two games into that series.
Zeller averaged 6.1 points and 3.0 rebounds last season. He played in three of the six games in the Atlanta series.
Celtics' ace in the hole in pursuit of Durant: Brad Stevens
Celtics' ace in the hole in pursuit of Durant: Brad Stevens
Kevin Durant is hanging out in the Hamptons waiting to be wooed by six NBA teams, including your Boston Celtics.
(Wait, this just in: A seventh party has entered the sweepstakes. Kelly Ripa, a fellow Hamptonite has requested to pitch KD on becoming her co-host. "It's LIVE with Kelly and KD!" It flows.)
Today Durant meets with his current team the Oklahoma City Thunder. What the hell is anyone going to say in this meeting? "Hey, KD. Anything new since we saw you a month ago, when you couldn't make a shot in the clutch against the Warriors?"
Seriously, what can OKC tell the guy about their team that he doesn't already know? He could have just stopped by the GM's office on his way to the Hamptons. But, in this day and age of the power player, all must bow to him. Ah, what the hell. I would probably do the same thing.
I have a gut feeling about OKC and Durant. He wants out. If not this year -- because it looks like he's going back to the Thunder for one more season -- than the next. Is it the small town? Is it that Russell Westbrook could bolt next season to the Lakers? Is it coach Billy Donovan?
Ahhh ha! That's what I'm going with.
I've always read that Durant loves the fans in OKC. He has never seen like a "big city" guy to me, or someone who has to live in South Beach or Manhattan. Kevin Durant has always seemed to be about basketball and that's why I think he has man love for Brad Stevens.
I have this moment during the playoffs when OKC was playing the Warriors engrained in my brain. Durant commits a stupid mistake out of frustration that results in a turnover and a Warriors hoop. On the sideline, Billy Donovan chews his ear off for what seemed forever.
That was a mistake. Billy the Kid needed to realize he wasn't in Gainesville anymore. Remember, Billy is chip off the old Rick Pitino coaching block. Both love to talk and love to coach.
That can work against you in the NBA.
Brad Stevens, who is a better coach than Donovan, would never do that. Heck, Brad rarely shows up a rookie on the sideline. He's smart enough to know if a veteran like Durant errs because he's mad, nothing needs to be said. Players like Durant, LeBron or Steph know when they screw up.
I can see Durant talking basketball with Brad for hours, I mean, leave the room at lunch and come back after dinner and you'd find the two still jawing about everything from calling plays after time outs to Texas's prospects next year.
I know Danny Ainge sat next to Durant's mother during the tournament and was fined for it. Still, it was a very nice touch and it certainly made an impression on KD.
But the real reason, in my opinion, that he's thinking about Boston is Stevens.
Now if the Celtics can sell on him on playing with Jaylen Brown, they have a real shot.
Good luck with that.

He has just launched his latest show, Infamous, which is full to the brim with incredible illusions.
But when it comes to the love between Derren Brown and his boyfriend Marc Hagan Guirey there's no trickery involved.

Snakey ladies: Both Claire and Cleo had incorporated snake print into their outfits
Delighted: Simon Callow and actress Jill Halfpenny looked excited about the production
Fans: Morwenna Banks and David Baddiel wore similar glasses with their blazer and jeans combos
She wasn't the only TV star in attendance, a casual looking Davina McCall was on hand as was a very excited looking Jonathan Ross.
And making sure the party had plenty of colour was Cleo Rocos and Claire Sweeney, who enjoyed catching up over a glass of wine.
The former Brookside actress looked healthy and tanned wearing a multi-coloured maxi dress which really accentuated her bronze skin.
Showtime: Jemima Khan went for a pretty white dress while Davina McCall (R) went for a more casual look
Summer casual: Jonathan Ross wore a summer blazer with a pair of white loafers
Laid back: Jemima's white dress was teamed with a pair of wedges, while her hair was tied back loosely
Derren's latest show –Infamous- combines his humour, wit and skills to ensure an evening of entertainment and mind-bogglingly confusion.

The Utah Jazz continued to struggle on the road, falling to the Denver Nuggets 104-84 in Denver on Friday.
After outscoring Denver 27-26 in the first quarter, the Jazz were outscored in the final three quarters, including 27-11 in the decisive second quarter. The Jazz had a stretch in the second where they were outscored 17-2 by the Nuggets, a hole too deep to get out of.

Gordon Hayward led the Jazz in scoring with 15 points on 6-7 shooting from the field. Derrick Favors chipped in with 10 points, 11 boards and five blocks.
Denver's Corey Brewer had a game-high 20 points.
The loss drops the Jazz to 2-4 on the season and is the team's fourth consecutive road loss.
The Jazz travel back to Salt Lake City to play the Phoenix Suns, Saturday at 7 p.m.

Chinese banks may invest up to $5bn Siberia electricity networks: report
May 22, 2014 - 11:56 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Chinese banks may invest up to $5 billion in the next five years in electricity distribution networks in Siberia, RIA Novosti reported, citing a source close to negotiations.
A Russian power company, Russian Grids, has signed a preliminary deal with China's state grid company, under which annual investments of Chinese banks in the projects of MRSK Sibiri, a subsidiary of Russian Grids, could reach from $500 million to $1 billion, the source said Thursday, May 22.
In September, a joint venture is expected to be established between China and Russian Grids, where the Russian company will have a controlling stake. Now talks are underway that the banks' annual interest rate will be fixed at 3.5 percent.
China will participate in the construction and reconstruction of electricity distribution networks, which could be managed by the Chinese side in future, the source said.
OJSC MRSK Sibiri transports electricity though distribution networks and connects consumers in the Russian republics of Altai, Buryatia, Tyva, Khakassia and the Altai, Zabaykalsk, Omsk, Kemerovo and Tomsk regions. In the wake of current standoff between Russia and the West over the Ukrainian crisis Moscow and Beijing have been cementing their business ties.
A number of documents in trade and economic, energy and humanitarian fields were signed during President Vladimir Putin's visit to China on May 20-21.

Molly Winton Demonstrates Wood Burn Basket Weave Brand
May also be viewed on YouTube – But please stay here if you can!
For this video, I have a special guest, Molly Winton. I recently attended one of her workshops where she taught pyrography or woodburning. She was a great teacher and gave me the bug — I have to incorporate wood burning into some of my projects.
In this video, Molly demonstrates making her basket weave tip and how to best use it. She uses 20 gage wire (sometimes 22 gage). She uses a hex drill bit as a mandrel that is cut off where the flutes begin. A vise grip holds nichrome wire to the hex part of the mandrel. She wraps the wire five times, removes it from the mandrel, then straightens and trims the leads.
Molly's website: http://www.turningmaven.com/
Molly's email: firstname.lastname@example.com
If you have a chance to attend one of her demo's or workshops – DO IT!
If you want woodburning tips pre-made by Molly visit Packard Woodworks at http://www.packardwoodworks.com/
Here's a link to my Vaporizer (power supply) video
and a link to my woodburning pen and a link to my first woodburning project.
Good turning.
Christmas Drum Ornament For Little Drummer Boy
May also be viewed on YouTube – But best right here.
This video uses the third and last pieces of wood glued into a stave segmented block: The first was a traditional globe ornament; then a vase ornament; and now a drum ornament.
I do not know the pen blank wood – this wood was part of a "exotic tropical wood" pen blank Black Friday sale a couple of years ago. However, I did use Padauk in between each pen blank.
The tropical wood is quite soft and tears out from end grain very easily. This ornament is finished with Mylands Friction Polish.
To finish turning the exterior of my cylinder, I needed to customize a chuck to hold and center the hollow wood. The chuck is a threaded wood faceplate with a t-nut to receive a bolt from the other side. Small adapters turned from cedar center the cylinder. Check out my video of February 2013 for how to make threaded wood faceplates. I use them all the time.
Walnut discs form the drum heads.
The drum is for the Little Drummer boy who beats his drum for the baby Jesus.
Good turning.

Christmas Ornament Vase Reminds Of Spirit Of Giving
May also be viewed via YouTube – but best right here.
This Christmas vase is turned from mixed "tropical pen blanks". I had glued up the pen blanks for an earlier project and had ample left over. Move than enough for this project.
Since the wood was already glued up, this was a simple project. I hollowed it, then added a top and a bottom to the vase.
It reminds me of the gifts given the the Christ Child.
Good turning.
Meanwhile, we're starting the judging for the Christmas Ornament Challenge – What a tough job.
DIY Pyrography Pen And Tip For My Woodburning
May also be viewed on YouTube – But Better Here!
There's still time to enter this year's Christmas Ornament Woodturning Challenge. See this year's challenge playlist here for all ornament video submissions.
We appreciate all skill levels and all types of Christmas ornaments.
As promised, this is my build video for my DIY or home made pen for pyrography or woodburning on my woodturning projects.
This pyrography pen uses;
- 6″ ¾" PVC pipe
- 6-8 feet 14 gauge insulated stranded wire – Ace Hardware
- ¼" Male Power Jack
- 4 PA10HDS-R connectors from connector strip – #215029 TERMINAL BLOCK,12-POS,10MM, $2.3900 – Jameco Electronics
- 8" – 1/8" brass rod
- JB Weld Epoxy
- 1 cotton ball
- 1–strip thick veneer, popsicle stick, or solid wood a little longer than the brass rod plus connector length
- electrical tape.
The most difficult item to source are the connectors. I could not find them in local stores such as Radio Shack or Fry's. I ordered them online from Jameco electronics. Others from my club found them at a commercial electronics supply firm.
The connectors are sold in a block of connectors. I tried to unscrew the screws to extract the metal tube but could not remove the screw from the plastic housing. Then I succeeded when I tightened the screw then clipped the plastic and pried back the plastic. Then I could easily remove the screw and slide out the metal connector.
I soldered the wire to my 1/4″ power jack which matches the jack I installed in the vaporizer.
I cut two pieces of 1/8″ brass rod about 4 inches long and tightened a connector to each end. Then I glued the flats on the metal connectors on one brass rod to a piece of veneer. After the glue dried, turned it over and glued the other rod with connectors to the other side. Then I wrapped both ends with electrical tape.
With my sub assembly complete, I connected the wire and inserted the rod assembly into the PVC pipe. After stuffing cotton into each end, I filled each end with JB Weld epoxy.
This completed the pen.
Home made tips are made from nichrome wire 18 to 22 gauge. Molly Winton recommends 20 or 22 gauge.
My pen can use both Razortip commercial tips and home made tips.
This is a great project, very economical, to create a variety of effects applied to woodturning projects. My "Vaporizer" packs enough power punch to drive even larger pens.
Good turning.

As promised, this is my build video for my DIY or home made power supply to use for pyrography or woodburning on my woodturning projects. Graeme Priddle is the source for this design that he called a "Vaporizer".
This vaporizer uses a battery charger modified to remove much of the internal circuitry with the addition of a household dimmer switch.
- 1- Harbor Freight – 10/2/50 Amp 12V Manual Charger With Engine Start ~$39.99 – watch for a sale and/or coupon.
- 1- Ace Hardware – Lutron Push On/Off Dimmer (D-600PH-3K) ~$9.49
- 2- ¼" Female Panel Mount Jacks
In Graeme Priddle's notes, he often uses a NAPA battery charger. I don't believe this matters as long as you can figure out the internal wiring that needs to be removed. He also hard wires his pyrography pen to avoid any power loss from the connection. However, I chose to mount two 1/4″ sockets in the front panel to enable two pens to be plugged in at once. However, only one can be used at a time. I used a switch from the battery charger to control which switch is powered.
The most difficult part was routing power to the switch and to the power sockets. Had I used a single in-line connection, the work would have been much simpler.
At the input to the battery charger, I removed a circuit board and wired the dimmer switch into the black or power input wire. I had to use additional wire to make the connections since there was just not enough extra wire.
On the output side, I traced back the wires leading out to the battery clamps. I was able to remove a couple more pc boards that otherwise control current.
After removing these components, I soldered a wire leading from the front meter to the center connector of the switch that originally controlled amperage. Then I soldered wires from the two poles of the switch to the power socket terminals.
I cut these wires from the output cable running to the battery clamps. This wire is heavier and should handle the power adequately.
Another couple of wires from the other connectors on the power sockets and connected to a wire that originaly lead to a component.
For operation, power is controlled by the push on/push off operation of the dimmer switch then by rotating the dimmer clockwise to increase power. It's best to start with the dimmer rotated completely to the left.
The front switch controls which power socket will receive power. Two pens can be plugged in but only one will receive power.
This power supply has ample power to drive a large pen tip and to quickly reheat a tip after a touch to burn wood.
Please remember to unplug when not in use. Rotate the dimmer counter-clockwise before powering up. Let tips cool before touching. Whoever uses and modifies a commercial unit to adapt its use has to take full responsibilities for maintenance, safety and proper operation.
That said, this is a great project, very economical, to create a variety of effects applied to woodturning projects.
In another video, I'll show how to make a pen to use with this power supply. Don't worry, the pen is easier than the power supply.
Good turning.
Salvaging My Christmas Bell Ornament
This video may also be viewed via YouTube – But Best Viewed Right Here!
This Christmas bell is turned from maple about 2 inches in diameter and three inches tall. It is finished with colored artists pens and lacquer.
It started life as a hollowed bulb ornament. However, one end got too thin. My salvage efforts resulted in a bell.
While I'm happy with the bell, I'm always disappointed when I turn a wall too thin.

This year's Challenge Playlist for all ornament video submissions is continually growing here.
We appreciate all skill levels and all types of Christmas ornaments.

Woodturning Stave Segmented Pen Blank Christmas Ornament
This video may also be viewed via YouTube – But best viewed here.
This is another ornament for this year's Christmas Ornament Woodturning Challenge The ornament's body consists of eight 'exotic tropical hardwood' pen blanks cut in stave fashion with strips of padauk between each. Each pen blank was ripped at a 22.5 degree angle.
The ornament's top and bottom are walnut. The ornament is finished with Myland's Friction Polish.

Woodturning Hollow Christmas Ornament With Wood Burning
This video may also be viewed on YouTube. But much better here.
This ornament is my first for this year's Christmas Ornament Woodturning Challenge. It is cherry with the bulb about 2 inches in diameter plus about 1 inch integral finial. I hollowed the bulb by cutting it in half, hollowing the two halves, and gluing it back together. It is finished with shellac friction polish.
For decoration, I turned several v-grooves and woodburned (pyrography) some random designs. I then sanded the burned areas before finishing and buffing the ornament.
Enter your ornament video at http://www.AsWoodTurns.com/Challenges. There's still lots of time before the deadline of November 30, 2015.

Pyrography For Lid Of My Segmented Utility Bowl
This video may be viewed on YouTube.
This video builds on my last video to make a lid for my bowl. It went well except for the home-made plywood I used in the lid. I had expected it to blend well to make the lid. While it sanded well, and had a smooth surface, it did not look right at the size it was and for the more visible top of the vessel.
Last year, I took a workshop from Graeme Priddle. More recently, I took another from Molly Winton. Both used pyrography or woodburning to enhance vessels. I decided to enhance the look of the lid by burning a pattern over the plywood area.
To burn, I used three burning tips: a skew for the outline; a large basket weave for the outer fill; and a ball point to stipple the inner fill. After burning, I painted the area with black gesso. Finally, I burnished the burned area with RubnBuff to give the high points a gold luster.
The lid is three segment rings with twelve segments each for thirty-six segments. The lid is finished with walnut oil like the bowl portion. At ten inches in diameter, the lid add about two more inches to the bowl's height.
Good turning.

My used car didn't have mats. On a college budget, I bought the cheapest ones I could buy and put up with them sliding around for nearly six years. I finally invested in these Lloyd RubberTite mats and am very pleased with my purchase. The mats fit excellently and do not move around. Only downside so far is a slight skunky odor from the fresh rubber, but it's slowly going away and I don't expect it to be a problem.

It is a mistake to assume that content development is an assumed talent, or that it can be an afterthought in the digital marketing realm. Content strategy is more than writing for the web. There is a science and strategy behind developing quality content for web pages, blogs, advertisements and social media. And although every successful copywriter must have a foundation of basics writing skills, such as subject matter expertise, an engaging style and tone, and basic grammar usage, there is much more to being a content king.

Here are five that are well worth a try.
The U.S. Open has already started, which means Wimbledon is just around the corner. Before you know it, you will be a tennis fanatic for two weeks. Don't let that newfound enthusiasm go to waste. Instead of sitting on the couch, get out of the house and down to your local courts. Tennis is a brilliant sport because it is very strenuous. As a result, it will keep you fit and active. It's also very enjoyable. As long as you have a playing partner and a racket and a ball, you can enjoy hours of fun. Just make sure that you get down to the courts early as they might be full.
Fishing isn't as active or as strenuous as the other activities on this list, but it's still a sport in the eyes of many. The reason for that is more mental than physical. Sitting on a river bank watching a fishing line won't burn many calories but it brings psychological benefits like relaxing and giving your mind a well-deserved break. Your mental health is just as important as your physical health, which is why fishing is a great choice. Plus, it can be hard work. Fly fishing experts know just how difficult it is to catch a good haul. If fishing sounds like a plan, take a look at stores like Stillwater Fly Shop for tips and equipment.
Wouldn't it be great to mix the benefits of fishing and tennis together? You can if you go cycling. As you know, cycling is one of the most intense workouts possible. Due to the intensity, you work almost every muscle in your body. Only swimming is as strenuous. The psychological benefits emerge when taking a path far and away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Out in the countryside taking in the view, you won't fail to see life differently.
Cricket is an outdoor sport, so it's a good idea to get your fill while the weather cooperates. Once the season changes, cricket might not be an option for months. That's why the summer is a good time to play. It doesn't take much to start a game: a ball, bat, and a few friends. Before you know it, a game will be well underway. North America isn't exactly a cricket hotbed, so finding a local group with interest and experience in the sport might require some internet searching. Close to a coast? Try a game of beach cricket for the most fun.
Know the Basics
First of all, you should learn the basic rules. You need to know about which teams play in the league, how the league structure works and what the rules are. Then you can learn about the different playing positions on the field and how coaches formulate their team's tactics. Once you have all these bases covered, you will have a good foundation of knowledge from which to launch off and enjoy watching football.
Watch as Many Games as Possible
The best way to learn about football is to watch it played by professionals. The National Football League is one of the most popular sporting leagues in the world. It's easy enough to watch games, so why not start? As you start to watch the games, you will get drawn into them. Maybe then you will understand why people passionately root for their favorite football teams and players. Pick a team that you can support. When you have a team that you can follow and cheer on, watching football becomes much more fun. The quiz at www.foxsports.com/nfl can help you choose which team is right for you.
Read Game Reports and Follow NFL News
If you really want to become engulfed in the world of football and NFL, then you'll have to do some reading. People who truly love the game will spend their time following it even when no games are being played. As you take more of an interest in the sport, you will realize this. There are game reports, pre-game analysis and round-the-clock news to follow. You can pick up magazines and bookmark the best websites that allow you to keep on top of everything that's happening. Sites like www.thefootballeducator.com/ are good for beginners. They offer everything in a straightforward, easy to understand format.
Try Playing It
Often, the best way to learn about a sport is to get out there and actually play it. You can learn a lot about how the games and its rules function when getting to grips with it in real life. Watching others play the game is one thing, but you don't get the same first-person experience. You might even gain a little more sympathy for the players that frustrate you when you discover how difficult the game can be to play. There are plenty of amateur teams and leagues that you can get involved in. It's worth finding a level that is suitable for you though. So, if you've never played the game before, join an informal team that doesn't take ability too seriously. You can then move on up if you enjoy it and are good at it.
Trailer, RV and Luxury RVs
Rather than heading out into the wilderness with nothing but a tent and sleeping bag, why not purchase a trailer RV? The market offers a wide range of choices, from those under $20,000 to those costing just less than half a million dollars. It all depends on how much you want to spend on your next vacation. One of the more expensive models offers the promise of a five-star hotel you can keep for the rest of your life. Put that way, an RV offers great value for the money. Before you dismiss the idea of paying this much for a camping trip, we should tell you a little about what these bigger RVs have to offer.
First, you'll have a beautiful, luxurious living area. There might be a recliner seat, a widescreen UHD TV, even king-size beds with memory foam mattresses. Wondering what you'll subsist on? The best RVs have a full kitchen, equipped with whatever you might need. If you hate the idea of driving that RV everywhere, there's two options. You can either get a trailer and detach once you reach your destination. Or, you can get an RV with luggage space for your car. No, we're not kidding. These actually do exist.
Batteries, Heaters, And WiFi
One of the major disadvantages of camping is that you have to say goodbye to all the little and large home comforts. You're tied down to staying on a crowded campsite if you want eletricity. Well, not anymore. Now you can buy portable batteries, heaters, and WiFi hubs. That means you'll be able to live in the same comfort that you do at home no matter where you are. You'll have freedom to roam, camped halfway up a mountain or in the middle of a field. But you'll still be warm with everything you could ever watch on Netflix.
Great Camp Sites
There are plenty of holiday resorts across the country that have camping facilities. That means you don't have to cross off the idea of a fun filled family vacation if you go camping. You can even camp in Fort Wilderness at Disney World. You'll be right next to where the boat docks, ready to take you to the Magic Kingdom long before the crowds.
We hope you see now that if you're planning on heading camping, there's no reason for it to be a chore. It can be a dream come true.
The Caribbean
The Caribbean Sea is home to many different islands. Throw a dart at a map and pick one; you're bound to fall in love no matter what. Real Estate is available on most islands, including Nevis, St. Kits, and Barbuda. If you have real estate in this corner of the world, you are almost guaranteed perfect weather whenever you visit. There are also plenty of opportunities to try out water sports. Don't want an active vacation? Stick to sunbathing on a beach! In the Caribbean, buying a home on one island doesn't mean you must stay there. Visit a neighboring island by boat on a day trip!
United States
How about a staycation? The United States is a vast country; there's always plenty of land to see and explore. Buying a holiday home here will give you an extra base from which to explore the country. If you live on the West Coast, how about buying a second home on the East Coast or vice versa? Buying a holiday home in your own country will also reduce costs as some countries will make foreign buyers pay extra fees.
Copenhagen, Denmark
Copenhagen benefits from an awesome location. This southern tip of Scandinavia places you within easy reach of the Nordic countries and most of central Europe. So if you are a fan of road trips, this cosmopolitan city could be your perfect base! Not only that but you will have plenty to discover in Denmark's capital city. Visit Tivoli Gardens to ride on roller coasters or take a tour around the historic Christiansborg Palace. If you rent out a car while you are staying in your Copenhagen holiday home, you can easily explore the rest of the country. Aarhus and Odense are well worth a visit!
Scotland is another brilliant location for road trips. It's also possibly the cheapest location for real estate in the United Kingdom right now. You'll find many pretty cottages in idyllic locations, most of which are within easy reach of the country's famous lochs. There is also lots of tasty food to sample in Scotland. While you're there, don't forget to try a local whisky and the national dish, haggis. Holiday homes in Edinburgh and Glasgow will place you just steps from some of Britain's top museums and galleries. And England isn't too far away either! You can be down south within no time on high-speed trains.
Of course, there are a load more cool destinations for vacation homes. No matter which corner of the globe you prefer, there are enough choices to make your final decision difficult.]]>
Personalized Gifts
We all like to buy personalized gifts on the occasion of birthdays and Christmases. When it comes to golf, you've got plenty of opportunities to get personal. At websites like atthetee.com, you can buy items such as personalized golf tees. Another great choice is to personalize the golf balls themselves, although you can't guarantee they won't end up in a pond at some point! You could even personalize their clubs for them.
I'm sure you're aware of all the golf-related media products out there. For example, there are thousands of DVD's about the sport, from major tournament coverage to improving your game. The same thing goes for books, where you can buy autobiographies, training material, and much more. This can be a great way to buy a present for a golf fanatic that you don't know that well. As long as it's related to the sport they love, they're sure to like it.
Golfers have to wear specific clothing. Most courses have strict dress codes, so a gift in this realm could go a long way. There are even sun visors specific to golf that can prove essential in the summer months. You can't go wrong with polo shirts and shorts. You could can also invest a golf glove if the golfer on your list doesn't have one yet, but most golfers have a pair as a basic necessity.
Arguably the most obvious, appropriate gift to give a golf fanatic is the equipment itself. It's also the most expensive in many cases. Start with one of many clubs every golfer needs on course. They're also going to need somewhere to store the clubs, so how about a golf bag? Make sure they haven't got one already — a bag is a basic piece of equipment that many golfers purchase early.
When the rain is pouring, and the golf course is no option, they'll have no choice but to head inside. If they're still in the mood to play some golf, they can revert to games. There are all sorts of options on the market: tabletop family games, full-blown AAA video games. You might want to buy them something like Rory McIlroy's PGA Tour by EA Sports. Be sure to check easports.com to make sure they've got the right machine to play it!
This list only begins to scratch the surface. A true golf fanatic will gladly accept anything remotely related to their sport.]]>
The Prairie State is one that has provided beautiful scenery forever. A lot of it remains unspoilt as this is a big farming State full of forests and wetlands. Scenic walks are one of the best ways to truly appreciate the landscape. Hiking is a very popular activity throughout Illinois. The cities may be bustling and vibrant but there are lots of great places for stillness and quiet.
The Ohio River and Erie Canal are thought to be the most important waterways in Illinois. Historically, they have brought settlers here, and brought trade to the region where Chicago is now. Chicago is one of the main areas that has a large body of water. It sits on the edge of Lake Michigan. Illinois is bordered by several states including Indiana, Iowa and Wisconsin.
Chicago is one of the biggest cities in the United States. It in internationally renowned for its skyscraper skyline. The city is also hugely respected for its incredible museums. Any visitor to the city should make the time to tour a few of them. In particular, fans of Impressionist Art should take the time to enjoy the Art Institute in the heart of the city.
Getting around such a large place is easier than you think. There are good rail and road connections. And flying in is just as easy from most other cities. Perhaps there is a group of you coming into town for a sports event? Whether it's the Cubs, Bears, Bulls, Blackhawks or White Sox, you're in for a treat! Chicago has bus rental options to get your entire party to the game on time. You could also use the service for seeing more of this great city and State.
With over two and a half million residents, Chicago is a great place to enjoy food, culture, and entertainment. You might be here on business or simply looking for something to inspire you. This city has plenty to offer. But don't be afraid to tour the rest of Illinois. Springfield is the State's capital and can be reached easily from Chicago. It is Lincoln's hometown and its heritage is widely celebrated. Enjoy this historic town for a unique insight into the United States of America.
Route 66 is another favorite Tourist stop. Part of the route passes through Springfield. The annual festival celebrating this much-loved road has become epic. It's certainly a must-see if you're in the area during that weekend.
Illinois has a great deal to offer any traveller or vacationer. It is worth making this State your destination of choice for this year. Enjoy all that Illinois can offer you.]]>
Really, that's a shame. After all, for many small towns and cities, these sports clubs are a valuable asset to their communities. They give kids and adults alike an outlet for physical exercise and are often an integral part of the local scene. Without funding however, they will simply cease to exist. So we have put together a few ideas for you if you need to raise money for your community sports club. Let's take a closer look.
Be vocal
First of all, make sure you are vocal about your club's need for financial help. A lot of people in your community will be happy to help, but if they don't know about your problems, they won't be able to dig deep. A few announcements in the local newspaper and community websites will help. Make sure you let people know about how valuable you are to the community. A local journalist might fall in love with your story and give you plenty of space to talk about your financial woes.
Contact your state
There is often public funding available for amateur sports teams, but you won't get it if you don't seek it out. Contact your local authorities, apply for a grant, and you might get lucky. There are no guarantees of course, but it will highlight your plight. If you can prove you are a valuable asset to your local community, it might just pay off.
Host an event
One-off events can help raise quick cash for your club. And, in the vast majority of cases, they are easy to set up. You could hold a quiz night, for example, at a local community hall. You could charge people for entry, set up a bar, and find some prizes to make it worth their while. Try looking at an Online Sports Memorabilia Auction to see if you can find any bargains. Or, contact professional clubs to see if they can lend a hand. A signed shirt from a current or retired professional athlete can be a tempting prize for sports enthusiasts.
Find new sponsors
Sponsors are a great way to raise regular funds. You can approach local businesses and ask them to sponsor your team's shirts, or to advertise on giveaways at your stadium, park, or field. It will help out with many of the costs of running a sports team, from shirts and kits through to paying for venue fees. And, if you strike the right deal, it can lead to a constant income stream for more than one or two seasons.
We hope one or more of these ideas can help. Feel free to chime in with one or more strategy of your own.]]>
As a beginner, that isn't a realistic goal at first. When it comes to the basics, how much do you know about paddle boarding? And how can get you get started doing stand-up paddleboarding or SUP? Here are some of the basics:
Choosing a paddle board
It goes without saying that you need the right paddle board if you wish to start paddle boarding! So, how do you know which one is best for your needs? A few different types exist, so it's important to know what they are to make an informed decision.
All-round or "touring" SUPs are one of the most common types. They have round "noses" and are flat on the bottom. They're also quite wide and long, offering a greater volume. Because of those characteristics, they are the most stable boards you can get. All-round SUPs are ideal for boarding on lakes and calmer waters.
In contrast to all-round SUPs, "surf" SUPs are shorter and lighter. They have narrower noses and tails, offering more sharp turns. As you can imagine, surf SUPs are perfect for surfing!
Those with a lot of boarding experience that enter competitions will need "racing" SUPs. They get designed to cut through choppy waters and glide for longer. They also keep tracks straight. Racing SUPs with wider tails are more stable while the pulled-in types are more agile.
You can also get inflatable paddle boards. They are useful for ease of transportation. And if you're into yoga, there are even yoga-specific boards available to buy! Before selecting a board, it's crucial to check out some paddle board reviews first. That way, you'll get the best value for your money.
What else do you need?
You'll need to bring more than just a board to the beach, starting with a paddle. As you might expect, they come in a range of styles and sizes.
You should also get a leash to attach your paddle board to you. The leash fastens to your calf or ankle via a Velcro strap. You'll also need a paddleboard bag to protect your pride and joy from damage.
Last, but not least, you'll need a PFD (personal flotation device). They are a legal requirement if you go beyond the limits of a swimming or surfing area.
Getting started
It makes sense to take some professional paddleboarding lessons beforehand. That way you can learn the right techniques to be a safer boarder. In general, here is how you would get started:
Good luck!]]>
Your Kids Will Follow Your Example
If you're stressing or don't feel great on any particular day, your kids will follow your example. This means everybody ends up in a bad mood. There will likely be clashes, arguments, and things that will ruin your trip or make the day a downer. Just relax! Breathe. Stop worrying about things you can't control. Keep things upbeat and positive and it'll rub off on everybody.
The Place You Stay Can Make All The Difference
The place you choose to stay can make a huge difference to your trip. It can make things easier if you go somewhere that will go the extra mile for customers. Vacation rentals can offer more privacy to families if that's what you're after. The key is knowing what your family will enjoy more. That's not to say that your accommodation is the be-all, end-all factor. If your family is travelling somewhere great like Orlando, you're bound to have an amazing time. There are so many different things to do there, from theme parks to beaches. However, you should still think about what your family would prefer. You can get your Orlando vacation rentals for a private trip, or a hotel for something with more of a theme, maybe.
Itineraries Can Be Too Rigid
Itineraries give structure to a vacation, and help to make sure you pack in everything to your time. However, they can also be rigid. Everyone needs time to relax and days to explore with no rules. You might even find activities you didn't know were there once you arrive. If you do want to make an itinerary, make sure it isn't too strict. It's always better to be flexible on a family trip.
Make Sure You're Spending Quality Time
It isn't an awesome family trip unless you're spending real quality time. If you're still reading emails, playing video games or not taking in your new surroundings, it's not quality time. Enjoy your surroundings. Live in the moment. You don't need to take work on vacation with you. Encourage the kids to enjoy this time away from home properly too. Families often find that they spend the most quality time together when they are camping!
Take Home Comforts
In some cases it's a good idea to bring some of the comforts of home on vacation. Kids might struggle to sleep in beds that aren't their own, so it could be a good idea to take a cuddly toy they like. Letting them take tablets and things can be OK, but don't let them use them the whole time. They won't enjoy the trip if they are stuck in the online world!
Do Free Stuff Too
Research free things you can enjoy together. You don't need to buy expensive tickets to things to have a wonderful time. Make a list of free things to enjoy and you'll save more money for other activities.
Ready to plan an awesome trip with your family? Remember these things and you can't go wrong. If you have ideas and tips of your own, leave a comment. Come back for more soon!]]>
However, you can't walk into the Great Outdoors and hope everything falls into place. That mindset usually ends in having a terrible time or a dangerous situation. Camping is fun but hazardous. For that reason, you need to respect it by taking the proper equipment. The right equipment could save your life. At the least, it will make the experience much more comfortable and enjoyable. Here are a few ideas when it comes to camping essentials.
It is obvious that you will need to take a tent of some kind on your trip. What you might not realize is that you need a rather large one. Even if only two people are sharing a tent, the small ones tend not to have a lot of space. Also, you have to think about your bags and all the other accessories. You can't just leave them outside for the bears! Everything you have should be on your person or in your tent at all times. With that in mind, double the recommended size. For instance, if it's a two-person tent, get a four-person tent instead. Obey this rule, and you'll have the perfect amount of room to do more than sleep.
Even in the middle of the summer, the temperature will plummet at night. There's no central heating in the wilderness. Apart from lighting a fire, only another layer of clothing will help. It stands to reason that these extra layers should retain heat. After all, you can take them off during the day when you are hot. Clothes that use thick materials and heavy fabrics are best because they prevent heat from escaping, radiating the warmth toward your body instead. Lightweight clothing might keep you warm, but it is expensive. Look for Gore-Tex material. Climbers use these to scale Mt. Everest, so they should be fine for camping.
A decent sleeping bag will keep you warm at night. Its purpose is to radiate your body heat around the bag. Because you're tucked in, the heat can't escape. To be fair, most sleeping bags are pretty good as long as they use decent materials. What you need to look out for are good tent and ground cover. Thanks to companies like Nasus Supply, they are easy to locate and buy. Still, you should know what is best before you make your final purchase. With regards to ground cover, you need a piece of material that keeps your body off of the floor. Then, you won't radiate the cold from the ground. A good idea for a tent cover is a storm tarp. As you can tell from the name, they will hold up in the most extreme weather conditions.
Those of you that take camping seriously shouldn't rock up to a campsite five minutes from your house. To be honest, you might as well pitch your tent in your garden. For the ultimate experience, you need to go deep into the woods. However, deep forests are notoriously unkind and harsh environments. Because they are not tourist attractions, there are no paths or walkways. And, the vegetation grows wild like in a jungle. If you want to get through this vegetation, you will need a big, sharp knife. Think of a machete or an ax. Although they might seem over the top, they have the ability to cut through the forest. Plus, you can use them to chop wood for the fire.
Speaking of fire, it's always a good idea to bring matches. Our cavemen ancestors created sparks by rubbing two pieces of stone together, but this isn't a practical solution when a match is available. Even the most avid campers use certain "cheats," and using matches is high on the list. It will save you a whole lot of time and energy, two things you don't have when you are trying to get warm. Instead of picking up the first brand you see, opt for the waterproof ones. Rain can get into matches, making them impossible to light. That isn't the case if they are storm- or water-proof. You might prefer a lighter to a match, but a match is the best option. When your hands get cold, sparking a lighter is one of the hardest things in the world.
Depending on the climate, rain might be something to contend with. The main problem with rain when camping is that it soaks all your essential items. From your clothes to your rucksack, everything will get a soaking unless you secure your items in waterproof cases. It doesn't take much — only need a protective plastic case. Keep your essentials in the case to keep them safe. There's nothing worse than waking up in the morning to find the weather has destroyed your trip. A little tip: put one item in one bag unless it is only small. If the case is fit for bursting, it negates the entire point of the case.
Just because you are out in the wild doesn't mean that you don't need electricity. In fact, you need it more in the wild than you do at home. If there is an emergency, you need to be able to contact the emergency services regardless of your location. The problem with electricity is that you don't have any outlets when you go camping. You can buy electric tents, but they are a bit of a novelty. Instead of spending all that money, opt for a solar charger. As the name suggests, the charger absorbs sunlight to create electricity. As a result, you will always have the ability to charge your phone or other essential items. A solar charger is a particularly brilliant piece of kit that you should consider for your excursion.
You have to eat and to eat you will need the proper utensils. Obviously, you won't be sitting down to a three-course meal anytime soon. But, that doesn't mean you can't prepare a decent meal for your lunch and dinner. And, all it takes is a small gas cooker. Most camping stores sell these cookers because they have become a major part of the experience. The logic is simple: you turn on the gas, light it, and heat the pan. When the pan is hot enough, you throw in your food and create a basic meal. You can cook your food over the fire if you prefer. But, there is no need thanks to this piece of kit. It does all the hard work so that you can sit back and relax.
For those of you that want to find your food, there is nothing wrong with being a hunter-gatherer for a day. Still, you won't be able to find certain foods in the forest. Bread, for example, isn't readily available when you go camping. The same goes for a lot of food groups, which is why a cooler box is essential. The box will keep everything cool for the majority of your trip. Then, you can enjoy some luxury while you are 'slumming' it under the stars. As long as you take enough ice, the food will keep for a very long time. If you want, you can even take a few beers and enjoy a nice cold one under the stars. Sounds like a good idea!
You can't turn on a switch when it gets dark. When the sun drops, you will need to make light on your own. Thankfully, there are plenty of lanterns that use kinetic energy to create light. As such, you should never run out of light on your trip. To take it one step further, you might want a lantern with removable panels. That way, you can take a panel if you need to leave the comfort of the campsite. And, anyone at the campsite will still have light. They think of everything nowadays!
Surviving in the wild isn't easy, but it's a lot easier with the tools above.]]>

It's a Merrill summer....

At least here in the UK, lovely weather, flowers in bloom, lazy hazy days splashing about on the river/canal and all that jazz, no finer place in the world to be when it's like this for me. Perfect conditions for my light seeking Merrills, my XTI lies forlorn and neglected (Your time will come in the winter!) it's time for some Merrilly goodness, here are few recent shots from a green and pleasant land (all DP2M)

Blueberries are not something new to the Hood River Valley, but they're also not something commonly associated with Hood River like apples and pears.
"The season started a week early this year," said Roger Nelson of Nelson's Blueberry farm, who sells fresh blueberries. "They usually don't last long," he said. "As soon as we pick them people buy them."
"Blueberries are very labor intensive," said Nelson. "You need a lot of fertilizer, mulch, water and the picking is very tedious because the berries don't ripen at the same time. The production goes on a bell-curve. It starts out small and works its way up through the peak of the season and works it's way down towards the end."
The season usually ends around the third week of August.
Grave's Orchard, a new blueberry farm in Odell, was visited by the OSU-Mid Columbia Agricultural Research and Extension Center's field day agricultural tour on Thursday to show people options for fruit production in the area. The blueberry plants at Grave's Orchard were just planted this spring and there will be no harvest until next summer. They will harvest their berries specifically to be dried for use in the Gorge Delights pear bars.
