FARMINGTON - When a team loses its first game in the first week of district play, it usually spells doom for the season.
About the only thing left to play for is pride.
Although their chances are slim, the Sikeston Bulldogs will try to keep their district title hopes alive with a win on Friday night at Farmington.
The game is scheduled to kickoff at 7 p.m.
The Bulldogs lost 32-9 to Cape Central last Thursday, pushing them back to minus-13 in the district standings.
For the Bulldogs to have a chance, they will have to defeat Farmington and Perryville by 13 or more points, and Cape Central will have to lose by 13 or more to either Perryville or Farmington.
The Tigers play at Perryville at 7 p.m. on Friday.
Since the playoff format has been set up in its current form, Sikeston has only won the district championship one time after losing its first game.
That came in 1991, after falling to Cape Central 21-7, the Bulldogs bounced back with 13-point wins over Poplar Bluff (41-28) and Vianney (13-0) to win the title. Poplar Bluff beat the Tigers (28-0) in Week 10, giving Sikeston the edge in the complicated points system.
The Tiger Boyd-led Bulldogs went on to fall to No. 2 ranked Mehlville 30-24 in a 5A state sectional game.
Now, with Farmington on tap for Friday, the 2001 Bulldogs will attempt to become the second team to accomplish the feat.
But Charlie Vickery and his club are focusing on the task at hand, rather than worrying about scoreboard watching.
"We haven't talked about the playoffs at all," said Vickery. "All we've talked about is playing good and playing up to our potential. Each game is big and it shouldn't matter whether it's a playoff game, a district game or a regular season game. We can't control what we do in the district. We only have 10 games and each game is an important one. We're approaching it like we have every game this season."
Since Sikeston dropped to Class 4A in 1998, the Knights have defeated Sikeston three straight times. This year's Farmington squad will again field a strong team, posting a 7-1 record this year.
"They're another very good team," said Vickery. "They're big and physical. They're 7-1 and they've played some real good football up to this point. They like to ram the ball at you and we're just going to have to be ready for that."
The Bulldogs will have to try to stop the Knights without two of their three captains, senior linemen Kevin Keller (knee) and Justin Lowes (shoulder). Neither is expected to return this season.
Up until being injured (Keller against Roosevelt and Lowes in the first quarter against Cape Central), the two were dominating football games, putting together all-state caliber seasons.
"We've got two outstanding football players that are out, but that's football," said Vickery. "It's a physical game and you're going to have injuries along the way. We're just going to have the opportunity for somebody to step up and play well."
The Knights are led junior running back Dallas Bryant, who has rushed for 717 yards on 96 carries with nine touchdowns.
Mike Hahn has 514 yards on 77 carries with eight TDs and Caleb Smith has rushed for 325 yards on 55 carries with five TDs.
Barry Watson is the Knights' signal-caller. He has completed 32-of-71 passes for 505 yards with five scores and four interceptions.
Chris Hayes is his favorite target, catching 17 passes for 328 yards with four scores.
Hahn leads the team with 70 tackles while former Sikeston resident Dustin Wiles has 42 tackles.
The Bulldogs are led on offense by junior running back Lavar Morgan, who has gained 585 yards on 124 carries this year. Quarterback Drew Lawrence has completed 34-of-65 passes for 475 yards with three touchdowns and four interceptions.
Backup Blake DeWitt has completed 9-of-25 for 129 yards. He threw for 114 last week against Cape Central in about three minutes of action.
Kyle Duncan, who has been nursing a muscle injury in his leg the last three weeks, should be close to full strength for the Bulldogs. He leads the team with 80 tackles.
With Lowes and Keller out, tri-captain Myron Hardin will anchor the line. He has 37 tackles and six sacks.
Andrew Lambert has had a monster season as a defensive back and as a kicker. He has snared seven interceptions and he is perfect on extra points (17-for-17) while booting 6-of-7 field goals.
He's also the team's leading receiver with 181 yards on seven catches.
Sikeston and Farmington have just one common opponent so far in New Madrid County Central. The Eagles handed the Knights their only loss this year, 28-13 in Week 3. Sikeston defeated NMCC 25-14 in Week 6.

You Can't Hide Across the Pond
Quite often, a Moose will walk the entire shoreline of the pond. When that happens, photo opps still happen if you think about it prior to it happening. What do I mean by think about it? Some of the best images are lost because of the lack for forethought.
My biggest lens with me this day was the 200-400VR2. 400mm is typically as long as I like to go with big game because it just visually compacts it too much. That's is, when the critter is up close to the lens. When they are on the other side of the pond, that's not an issue so going longer doesn't bother me visually.
So I put the 1.7x on and shot. In this low light situation, did it have problem focusing? No. Looking at the placement of the Moose in the viewfinder, did I have the AF sensor on the Moose? Nope. All I did was look for "telephoto landscape" photos along the path of the Moose and once it was in the scene, go click. Sometimes I would zoom all the way in and sometimes all the way out leaving the converter on. At the very least, it made for a killer spotting scope because watching is fun!

It's interesting to watch the automotive industry right now and listen to pundits harp on Detroit-based automakers for building products nobody wants to buy. Historically, the Ford F-series and Chevrolet Silverado have been among the best-selling vehicles in America, with the F-series perennially in the top slot. I've recently sampled two of the best trucks Ford and GM have to offer for 2009, although they couldn't be any more different.
The 2009 GMC Sierra Hybrid is the most technologically advanced pickup on the road today. I had a chance to sample one last summer and walked away very impressed. Not only does the hybrid Sierra basically do everything a regular Sierra does (with the exception of matching towing and payload capacities pound-for-pound), the hybrid is actually an all-around better truck. If you can live with a 5900 lb towing capacity and a 1418 lb payload capacity-and most people certainly can-the hybrid truck is smoother, quieter, and uses less fuel. My initial fear was the demand for GM's half-ton diesel trucks would make the half-ton hybrids irrelevant, but that engine program has been put on hold.
Last night I drove the Sierra Hybrid around my neighborhood in virtual silence. If it weren't for the clicking of stones trapped in the tire treads against pavement, this 5882 lb crew cab monster could have snuck up on anyone. I really wanted to play the theme song from Jaws and creep up on pedestrians, just to see how people would react. Perhaps a silent-running nuclear submarine is the ultimate stealth vehicle with utility, but the GMC Sierra Hybrid is clearly the best choice for those afraid of water.
To be clear, my impression of the Ford F-150 Raptor is only from the passenger seat. I managed to sneak on to a final development drive of Ford's off-road superstar last week in the Southern California desert and experienced this beast flat-out for a few hours. There is no production vehicle that can even begin compare to the Raptor. The ride over desert washes and down trails seems to defy physics. You forget there are leaf springs connecting the axle to the frame, as the truck feels very nimble and stable at speeds approaching triple-digits.
Everyone from Baja race teams to U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents wants to get behind the wheel of the Raptor, and after a demonstration of the truck's capabilities; they also want to buy the truck. Much like the hybrid Sierra is the ultimate GMC truck, the Raptor is the ultimate F-150. If you can live with 6000 pounds of towing capacity and 1000 pounds of payload, the Raptor is the most comfortable and capable F-150 that you could buy this year.
It's fascinating to reflect on these two diverse pickups as the entire automotive universe is being turned upside down. Perhaps Toyota could have beaten GM to market with a hybrid pickup, but no foreign automaker could have built a truck like the Raptor. Raptor captures the uniquely American idea of a high-performance pickup and pushes the envelope for factory performance vehicles in general. On the other hand, it seems unlikely the Raptor will be around for more than a generation or two before the emissions and fuel economy laws force it to join its reptilian namesake on the extinct species list.

Freescale's IPO and the $3 Billion Hole
Sometimes the smart money just looks dumb.
Private-equity firms Blackstone Group, Carlyle Group, Permira and TPG Capital in 2006 took semiconductor company Freescale private in a deal valued at $17.6 billion. Today, the quartet is staring at a $3 billion loss on their investment.
The Blackstone group plunked down roughly $7 billion in equity towards the Freescale deal nearly five years ago. The company is having its (re-) coming out party today with its initial public offering, which has been something of a dud. Freescale's bankers were forced to hack the price of its IPO to $18 a share from an expected range of $22 to $24 a share.
At the $18 IPO price, Freescale has a market value of $4.3 billion, excluding the effects of stock options and other stray shares. That means the Blackstone group, which owns roughly 80% of Freescale now, is taking a roughly 50% haircut on their investment, to the tune of about $3 billion.
Now, one big caveat: The Blackstone group didn't sell its stock in the IPO. If Freescale performs well, the investment picture could brighten for the PE quartet. So far this morning, Freescale shares are 5.2% higher, wiping away some of the PE guys' investment losses.

Peer deep into your router and you may find the internet is gurgling through a lot more doors today, with World IPv6 Day bringing the total number of individual addresses on the web to 340 trillion, trillion, trillion. The successor to IPv4, IPv6 dramatically increases the number of individual IP addresses - the individual identifiers assigned to each internet-connected device - to keep pace with the huge growth in online gadgets.
Until now, there have been 4.3bn IP addresses to go around; it sounds like a lot, but the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) responsible for distributing them actually ran out more than a year ago. Without IPv6, there'd be a significant bottleneck to internet expansion, with more and more connected devices forced to share IPs.
Although many companies, ISPs and search engines like Google have already been supporting IPv6 for some time, today sees the technology officially and widely turned on alongside IPv4. That doesn't mean IPv6 addresses for everyone - systems and hardware like modems, routers and computers may need software upgrades or even physical replacement, depending on age - but it does pave the way for the next groundswell in connectivity.
It's not only more IP addresses that makes IPv6 better than IPv4. There's also streamlining in how addresses are assigned and connectivity recovered when networks change, along with standardization in how MAC address identifiers are handled. IPsec is also baked in, one of several improvements in overall network security. There's more on IPv6 at Wikipedia.

This is the first issue I've had in ages and I'm not really sure that it is an issue.
I'm running PMS 1.11.335 on a Intel Core2Quad Q9550 with 8Gb of Ram on a Windows Server 2008 Standard x64 installation. My PS3 is connected to my gigabit backbone with a shielded cat6 cable (as the rest of the backbone) and is the only DNLA-capable device.
The issue is as following.
With the 64bit version of Java 1.6.0_13 the PMS suddenly shuts down with no errors. It does not matter if it's music (mp3/flac with DTS/FLAC -> LPCM checked/unchecked) or video (xvid/divx/mkv with MEncoder and TSMuxer fallback) but with the 32bit version of the same Java this works flawlessly.
Unfortunately I am unable to get a hold of a clean logfile at the moment but I should be able to produce a clean logfile tonight.
A Hint is that MEncoder frequently enters the "non-responsive" mode and has to be manually closed in the Task manager.

Christmas Bling and Cookies too!
It's hard to believe that Christmas is only one week away. The time these past couple of months seems to have whizzed by at light speed! I had plans to do all sorts, but can clearly see now that there will not be enough time to get everything done . . . oh well, there is always next year.
We did manage to get our tree up and the cottage decorated. In that area Todd and I differ completely. He is from the old school, and he's not happy unless every corner is hung and festooned with glittery garlands and Christmas bling.
Myself, I prefer a more understated look, but each year I indulge him and allow his Christmas fancies to take over. He spent far too many years on his own, before we met each other, too many solitary Christmas's . . . I let him have his way and try to make up for them now, even if it means living in a cottage that closely resembles Santa's Magic Grotto for several weeks every year.
I have a fondness for gingerbread men and my tree is covered with them, in one form or another . . . some softly sewn, other's made of glass, ceremic or wood . . . all of them quaint and beautiful in their own unique ways. I do relent and allow a few Christmas baubles and balls . . .
It reminds me of a tree that I had years ago when my children were all small and Christmas's seemed full of magic and child-like dreams. With five young bodies to please and not a lot of money in the bank, there was not much extra to spend for baubles and little pleasures on and beneath our tree. That year I decided that I would bake gingerbread cookies and decorate them to hang on the tree for decoration, along with red ribbon bows. The garland would be made of popcorn and cranberries that we strung ourselves, with white fairy lights sparkling in the background. What a fun time we had baking the gingerbread men and decorating them with white icing and cinnamon hearts!!! Each one was lovingly hung on the tree with bits of gold thread that I had been saving for just such an occasion.
I splurged and purchased a few boxes of candy canes. They looked very festive nestled in amongst the branches. It took us what seemed like hours to string the popcorn and cranberries onto dental floss, but my goodness, they looked so pretty when we were done, with the added benefit being, that the birds would get to enjoy their goodness once Christmas was over.
We were so proud of that tree and to this day it remains my favourite of all the Christmas trees we ever had. Never mind that we chose the wrong recipe of Gingerbread. Although it had been nice and crisp when it came out of the oven, it softened as the days went by . . . our Christmas celebrations that year were punctuated by the occasional soft plop of the odd gingerbread man falling off the tree as the gold threads slowly worked their way though it's sweet and fragrantly spicy softening crust.
I think sometimes the best Christmas's of all are the simplest ones . . . ones with homemade cards, decorations and oodles of Christmas cookies and goodies to enjoy . . .
Like these lovely cookies. I call them Christmas Split Seconds. The recipe is based on another recipe I have for Jelly Split seconds, but one year I thought . . .why not mincemeat instead of jelly. It's such a Christmas thing . . . with the delicious hint of cinnamon spice in the buttery crisp base and a tasty and crunchy topping of cinnamon nut streusel, these are real winners! Not only that, they are quick to make . . . I suppose that's why they are called Split Seconds . . .
*Christmas Split Seconds*
Makes 4 dozen
Called split seconds because they can be thrown together quickly and baked just as quick as a wink, these are lovely Christmas cookies for your holiday cookie trays. They are good keepers and oh so very tasty!
2 cups plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup golden caster sugar
1 large egg
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 to 3/4 cup purchased mincemeat
1/2 cup streusal topping (see recipe below)
1 cup icing sugar, sifted
Milk as needed to make a runny glaze
Pre-heat the oven to 180*C/350*C. Line two shallow baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Sift together the flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and the caster sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla, beating until smooth. Beat in the flour mixture until the dough is well mixed together. Divide the dough into quarters.
Shape each quarter into a long thick sausage shape on the parchment paper, each about 13 inches long and about 3/4 of an inch wide. Place the logs 2 inches from the edges of the pan and at least four or five inches apart. Press it a bit flat with your fingers and square it off at the ends. Taking the handle of a wooden spoon make a depression down the centre of each log lengthwise about 1/4 of an inch deep. Spoon the mincemeat carefully down the centre of each filling the depression. Sprinkle the streusal evenly over the top of each.
Bake in the heated oven for 13 to 18minutes or until they start to colour and are firm. Remove from the pan and while they are still warm and using a sharp knife cut each log into 12 diagonal slices. Slide the paper onto wire racks to allow them to cool completely before separating them. Once they are completely cold, make a glaze with the icing sugar and only enough milk to make it loose enough to drizzle. Drizzle some of this over each cookie. Let it harden before storing in air tight containers. Will keep at least a week, that's if you have them that long! They also freeze very well.
*Cinnamon Streusal Topping*
Makes 2 3/4 cup
This is very handy stuff to have in the freezer to use on muffins, cakes and cookies.
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup flour
1 tablespoon water
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup chopped toasted pecans or walnuts
Mix all ingredients together until crumbly. Use to sprinkle over cookies, cakes or muffins before baking for a deliciously crunchy and spicy topping. You may freeze this and use as needed.

Organizers are preparing for a day full of entertainment for the Queen City.
This coming Tuesday, October 26th, the 3rd Annual 'Rock the Park' will be in Meridian at 7 in the evening. It will be held at Meridian's Ben Arthur Davis Park.
'Rock the Park' will feature live music, dance, and praise. Organizers of the event say it will be an exciting night with a special guest.
"It will be, just a jolt if you will. A night where everyone can gather for free in pretty much the center of our town. Even to go with that, we have plenty of local people helping, but God has also blessed us with a regional artist and worship leader names Eddie James, who for a decade has been traveling really throughout the nation doing outreaches and events in small towns and big cities alike," describes Stacy Clearman, who is working with organizers of the event.
Organizers say the purpose of the event is to charge the city, including the youth and young adults.
The event is completely free. You can receive more information by contacting firstname.lastname@example.com or you can call 601-737-2904. And don't forget to bring your own lawn chairs and blankets.

It is very unlikely that this work is public domain in the EU, or in any country where the copyright term is life-plus-70 years. However, it is in the public domain in Canada (where IMSLP is hosted) and other countries where the term is life-plus-50 years (such as China, Japan, Korea and many others worldwide). As this work was first published before 1923 or failed to meet notice or renewal requirements to secure statutory copyright with no "restoration" under the GATT amendments, it is very likely to be public domain in the USA as well.

Joel and Rufus are back, I see.
Yep! They're back. I can tolerate them in the Sunday strip, but keep 'em away on the other six days. It's about time Walt finally has center stage.
The Sunday strips are nice interludes. Here's looking forward to tomorrow & more of Walt and his old buddies.
Send in the clowns! Don't bother, they're here.
Shore'n he is a male Abby van Landers hisself.
ha ha…like it….more comfy to cry in a caddie than on a bike…way to go
The Sunday filler. Can't wait till tomorrow!
There's some life left in that muffler which someone foolishly discarded…
Well, if Walt does decide to "retire" to the home then I guess Joel and Rufus will inherit GA for all times!
If Joel and Rufus ever inherit GA I will delete it from my comic collection. As it is I skip past it whenever they are featured.
I am very happy that Joel (and Rufus) are featured today. I have missed them. Even though it is not likely that they will be in the comic during the week this week, it was a breath of fresh air to see them back again on the Sunday comic. Thank you, Mr. Scancarelli!
If Joel and Rufus ever inherit GA I will delete it from my comic collection. As it is I skip past it whenever they are featured.
You will be missed. Not.
Or at least it can rent a reasonable facsimile.
Sometimes getting your wish isn't a good thing. People were clamoring for the junk men to get away from the tedium of the stupidity of Slim. Then they got over a week of the Junk yard bumpkins. One can't win this way.

Hi Everyone,
As part of my PhD thesis, I am collecting responses to a questionnaire survey on User eXperience. More than 100 Usability/UX researchers and practitioners have already been invited to perform this exercise and most of them agree on the fact that there is still a definite need for a standardized definition of the term UX.
By sharing your views on UX, your participation in this survey will help bringing the concept of UX to maturity.
Hey Guys,
I am currently working on a project that spans both web and mobile products. As part of this process, the UX team has create a high-level site map and individual feature flows. However, one of the developers on the mobile side is asking for an additional articifact; an "app map" or diagram focusing solely on entry and exitpoints thruout the entire application.

there are more GOP in congress than Democrats. That's The problem.
People believe what they want to believe. I sometimes wish they would make their religion an official belief system so we could prevent it from being made into the official religion of the nation by applying the Constitution. Until then, it is just grist for the mill. Interesting to note, for the "I Want to Believe" sect is that while we did miss the boat on budget and tax reform during the Democrat control of government from 2009 to 2011, the old Dutch word for miller is Mulder, and The Fiscal Cliff is what Ted Kennedy drove off on Old Dike Road after missing the ferry due to poor navigational skills. How this applies to their hatred of FOX news remains a mystery.
Its the duty of the congress to create the budget.
Under the republican house they haven't done their job for years.
Reid objected to GOP claims that the Senate has operated without a budget, pointing to the Budget Control Act, which states it will serve as the budget. "Folks, please, every time you hear the Republicans talk about our not having passed a budget, know that it is not true," Reid said.
He also called the language in the that would withhold congressional pay if a budget isn't approved a "gimmick" to appease the tea party.
"The House Republicans had to add a gimmick or two to their bill, but I understand, we all understand," Reid said. "The tea party plays a big part in what goes on in the House. They need a gimmick or two to get things done over there."
Read more: http://www.politico.com/story/2013/01/harry-reid-senate-will-pass-house-debt-ceiling-bill-86617.html#ixzz2MQjEzxCj
Interesting that Reid et. al. would do anything to appease anybody except the Tea Party, who are determined to adhere to the Constitution these same people have sworn to uphold and protect. I guess deter and obfuscate will have to do. After all, obfuscation is protection in the digital age.
We would still have A Tea Party. And the Mad Hatter would still be asking if we really want MORE budget cuts, with Alice replying that we can't have MORE budget cuts because we have not, as of yet, had ANY. But at least our Dear Leader will get his March madness Brackets filled out. That is what really matters. When I use a word, it means exactly what I intend for it to mean. Feed your head.

Francisco Liriano is making some noise down in Rochester. How would you handle his situation?
Nick Nelson, of Nick and Nick's Twins Blog: It seems to me like Liriano should be up as soon as possible. There is no reason to leave him in Rochester with the way he is pitching. He is making it very clear that he is ready.
Unfortunately, there is no one that is obviously deserving of a demotion from the Twins' rotation. They could call up Liriano as a reliever, but I don't think that would be the best course of action, all things considered.
If it were my choice, I would DFA Brian Bass, put Livan Hernandez in the long-reliever role and install Liriano in the rotation. I know the Twins prefer to have Hernandez as a starter, though.
Dan Wade: You've got to call him up, irrespective of the grievance BS. Yes, Perkins and Slowey are pitching well, but why settle for a B+ pitcher when Liriano appears to be back to A form? He is the best pitcher in the Twins' organization, and he appears to be as healthy as ever, ergo, he should be in the Twins' pinstripes as soon as possible, certainly not after the White Sox series.
Carlos Gomez is hitting .250/.284/.346 as of Saturday afternoon. Why does Gardy insist on putting him in the leadoff role everyday, and what would you do if you were the manager?
Nick Nelson: Who knows why Gardenhire continually insists on leaving Gomez in the leadoff slot despite his struggles. It is pretty clear at this point that he should be batting ninth.
Dan Wade: Well, we all got our wish last night, didn't we? Span just overcame a mini-slump of his own, so I don't think it was a slam-dunk decision, but it's one I agree with. Gomez needs to just relax, and I think hitting nine will allow that to happen. Span's 2-3 with a walk certainly didn't hurt his case.
If you could only make one trade this year, what would it be?
Nick Nelson: I'm not sure that I would make any trade. If Casey Blake could be had for a reasonable price, I think he'd be a logical addition. It seems to me that the Twins would have to overpay for a top-tier third baseman or for a dominant eighth-inning man.
Dan Wade: Glen Perkins, Ben Revere, Jason Pridie, and Ricky Barrett for Garrett Atkins and Casey Weathers.
If you could re-name this roundtable to anything you wanted, what would you choose?
Nick Nelson: Sadly, I'm just not feeling clever enough today to come up with a very good answer to this one.
Dan Wade: Twins Security Counsel, Twins Enclave, Twins Convention.

If one or more characters isn't repeating, check the Keyboard pane of System Preferences to make sure that the Key Repeat slider isn't set to Off. If a key isn't designed to repeat in the app you're using, copy the character to the clipboard. Then, hold Command-V to paste the character or word repeatedly.

All the CEI has now is a nasty letter
Kevin Grandia | July 30, 2007
By Kevin Grandia • Monday, July 30, 2007 - 16:14
So this is what the climate change "debate" has come to.
Forget debating the economic underpinnings of cap and trade or the best way to implement new vehicle emissions standards.
Instead the fine folks at the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) are spending their days playing the public victim over an email they received and subsequently posted on their site.Most likely it is such petty shenanigans that are one of the reasons behind ExxonMobil ending their longtime funding to the CEI for their climate change misinformation campaign.

BEIJING (AP) -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is in Beijing to press Chinese authorities to agree to peacefully resolve disputes with their smaller neighbors over competing territorial claims in the South China Sea.
Clinton arrived in Beijing on Tuesday after a stop in Indonesia, where she urged Southeast Asian nations to present a unified front in dealing with China and ease rising tensions in the South China Sea. The U.S. wants China and the other claimants to adopt a binding code of conduct for the region, along with a process to resolve disputes without coercion or intimidation.
Clinton was meeting with China's foreign minister late Tuesday and is to see the country's president and other top officials Wednesday.

It's the Slow Food NYC monthly Happy Hour! It's fun, social, and informal. But it's also your opportunity to talk to the leadership of Slow Food NYC and let us know what you think. Got a great idea for an event? Looking for ways to get involved? Want to learn more about Slow Food? Just looking to have a relaxing drink with other "Slow" minded people? The Slur is your opportunity - free and open to everyone.
The Queens Kickshaw is a popular neighborhood spot in Astoria that opened just over two years ago offering up a streamlined menu of specialty coffee, fancy grilled cheese sandwiches, craft ales, and ciders. The menu has evolved and expanded since then but has retained a commitment to quality ingredients, a nod to the diverse flavors of the neighborhood, and support for New York based food and beverage producers. The tiny kitchen churns out dishes from miso mustard pickled vegetables to bibimbap to a grilled cheese with gouda, black bean hummus, guava jam, and pickled jalapeños. Equally as impressive is the constantly rotating selection of craft beers and locally produced kombucha on tap, an extensive array of ciders, and even mead.
Join us at the communal table in the front of the restaurant where The Queen Kickshaw will offer a drink special for our Slur.

But life imitated art Monday night as she walked the red carpet at the movie's Manhattan premiere, where Rudolph, 36, wore a flowing Yigal Azrouël dress with a thin belt that accentuated her very real bump. Due "around November," according to her rep, Rudolph told PEOPLE that getting decked out for a red carpet these days is "not fun."
"I do my best. This is super dressed up," she said. Indicating her gown, she asked, "Isn't it beautiful?"
This is Rudolph's second pregnancy with her partner, director Paul Thomas Anderson – daughter, Pearl is 3. "I was sick as a dog for the first trimester," said Rudolph. But now I'm totally fine."
Krasinski CostarsAway We Go director Sam Mendes joked that Rudolph had gone beyond the call of duty for the sake of the film, which tells the story of an expectant couple (John Krasinski costars) who travel far and wide to find the perfect place to raise the child.
"It's an amazing act of selflessness that Maya Rudolph agreed to become pregnant a second time to promote this movie," quipped Mendes.
At the film's grandly eccentric Jane Street Hotel after-party, Mendes said that already being a mother prepared Rudolph for the role of a pregnant mom: "You remember how it feels, how to move, walk. You know how people react to you."
Added Mendes, who has a son, Joe, with his wife, Kate Winslet, "Being a parent softens you. It makes you fascinated in other parents. You're always looking at other people to see if they have it a little bit more right than you have."

The Fundraisers
How they do it on a dime
Illustrations: Sergio Ramirez
(page 3 of 3)
Vying for donors?
With the relatively small population compared with the number of charitable organizations, one might think there'd be fierce competition for contributions. But these three fundraising veterans say that's not the case.
"Among colleagues, competition is a lot less than people might think," Boettger says.
Because each organization has a different mission, a different focus, they attract different donors, although there's bound to be some spillover, she explains. But those in the fundraising business set boundaries.
"It's basic courtesy," Boettger says, adding that those in the business cooperate, communicating with each other and respecting the others' events calendar.
Watson, too, says there is no competition and, in fact, the nonprofits help each other.
"We really do share," she says, adding that if they meet someone whose interests and passion fit another nonprofit better, they point that donor in the right direction.
"We're just so fortunate to have the generous donors we have in this Valley, whoever they're giving to," she says.
Beahen Lipman notes there certainly are a lot of worthy nonprofits in the Valley.
"But there always seems to be donors who are passionate about a specific cause," she says. The success of so many charitable organizations is due to "the wonderful people who live here."

The Rebels could not size up with the Cubs' 6-foot-9 junior center William Bogan. Richland's tallest player at 6-2 was no match, and Bogan had a huge game with 20 points and 16 rebounds (eight offensive).
"Will (Bogan) used his big body well tonight," said Bell City head coach Brian Brandtner. "He really crashed the boards hard and was the difference in the first half."
The Cubs sprinted out early against Richland, going on a 9-0 run to start the game. Bogan was key in the first game as he scored six points and grabbed seven rebounds.
The Rebels had a difficult time with the full-court pressure exhibited by Bell City. Richland committed eight turnovers in the first quarter and trailed 23-7.
In the second quarter, the Cubs continued to crash the defensive and offensive boards. Bell City outscored Richland 22-8 in the quarter and had a 45-15 halftime lead.
For the first half, the Cubs had a 25-8 rebounding advantage over Richland. Bell City had 14 offensive rebounds in the first half, while the Rebels ended up with two. Bogan had a huge first half, scoring 12 points and pulling down 10 rebounds for the Cubs.
"I was disappointed with the way our kids played in the first half," said Richland head coach Jeff Jennewein. "We could have played better, but you have to give credit to an athletic and physical Bell City team. They are the better team."
In the second half, Bell City cruised the rest of the game and came away with a 74-35 victory.
"We have spent some time working on our offense," said Brandtner. "The guys are learning where on the floor they can get shots in our offensive scheme. We are learning to run the floor and execute. I was proud of the way the team played defense tonight. We were moving well and made them take some tough shots. We also did an excellent job of crashing the boards in the first half. Can't ask for a better effort from the guys."
Matt Ritch led Richland in scoring with 10 points. Cameron Whittaker had seven points and led the team with five rebounds. Tommy Harlan also had seven points and ended up with four rebounds. Nick Harris chipped in with six points off the bench.
The Rebels had 19 rebounds (seven offensive) for the contest. Richland committed 23 turnovers in the game, with only eight assists as a team.
"We played a better second half," said Jennewein. "The kids tried to execute on offense and I was encouraged that the team didn't quit. The guys played hard tonight, we were just matched up against a better team tonight."
Besides Bogan's huge game, Jeff Liggins also had a nice all-around game. Liggins had 10 points, five steals, four assists and two rebounds for the Cubs. Guard Nick Niemcyzk had 10 points, four assists, three rebounds and three steals.
Kerry Lasters scored 13 points and Philip Gross tossed in eight points for Bell City. Blaine Stewart led the Cubs with five assists, grabbed four rebounds and hit a 3-pointer for his three points on the night.
Bell City tallied 36 rebounds (14 offensive) as a team against Richland. The Cubs passed the ball effectively and recorded 16 assists as a team, with 10 turnovers. Hard-nosed defense allowed Bell City to accumulate 15 steals in the game.
"The team played well tonight and it was a good win," said Brandtner. "We got out in the running lanes and ran the fast break well tonight. The guys still have to learn to utilize the skip pass more, but we can work on that in practice."
Bell City won the junior varsity game over Richland, by a score of 55-52 in overtime.
Richland (4-8) is back in action on Tuesday night, as the Rebels will entertain the Gideon Bulldogs. Junior varsity game slated to start at 6 p.m.
Bell City (9-3) will travel to Puxico on Tuesday. Tip is set for 6 p.m. for the junior varsity contest.

The popular hairstylist and politician loved to hug his clients at the renowned "Salon to the Stars," the follicle fashion choice of many of Contra Costa's political movers and shakers. He had in his hands the hairstyles of dozens of Contra Costa's elected leaders throughout the years.
"As big as Michael was in person, he was bigger than life," said longtime client and friend Sunne Wright McPeak, a former county supervisor who served as a cabinet secretary under Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. "He was genuine, the salt of the earth and a really good friend."
McPeak heard from him Friday when Chavez and his wife, Vikki, and their two children, Austin and Dallas, sang "Happy Birthday" to her, as they do every year. She still has the recording on her cell phone.
The next afternoon, 61-year-old Chavez' died unexpectedly of an apparent heart attack during a public hearing in Concord.
Chavez had been on the council just seven months. Friends and colleagues describe a man whose impact during his 27 years in the community far surpassed his short time in elected office.
Concord residents can thank Chavez, in part, for the absence of a massive bronze statue of a recliner in Todos Santos Park, an offensive tribute to suburbia once envisioned as part of a reconstruction of the park.
"Michael was instrumental in stopping the over-the-top design of the park," said longtime client and close friend Christine Callahan, a Concord attorney and political activist. "He would talk about the park constantly as he was cutting people's hair. He got the word out and a lot of his clients were some of the movers and shakers of the community."
Chavez moved from citizen activist to serve on the Markham Arboretum advisory committee and the city's parks and recreation and planning commissions. He also served on a board for the Cal State East Bay Contra Costa Campus. He was elected to the City Council in November.
Chavez hailed from humble beginnings. As the son of a gardener, he grew up in East Los Angeles with nine siblings and would later tell clients stories about his childhood.
He joined the Marines as a teenager and used his veterans benefits to pay for cosmetology school. After he graduated, he moved to San Francisco and quickly established himself in a high-profile salon in the city's financial district.
It was in the city where Chavez met and fell in love with the woman who would become his wife and lifelong business partner, Vikki.
The two hairstylists opened their own salon in San Francisco but opted to leave the city for Concord in the late the 1970s, when they opened Charisma Salon on Clayton Road.
In the 1990s, the couple set off on the arduous, but fulfilling, journey of adopting their son, Austin, and their daughter, Dallas, from Russian orphanages.
"Like everything Michael did, he was very committed to parenthood," said Mark Rudy of Alamo, who adopted a boy from the same orphanage. "He was so proud of his children."
Chavez was a master storyteller and the antics of his children were among his favorite subjects. Friends say he could turn an ordinary event into a riotous tale, and he was never afraid to poke fun at his own foibles either.
Like Mark Twain, Chavez never let the facts get in the way of a good story. His friend Callahan dubbed his penchant for embellishment as "Michael's Garden of Misinformation, a place frequently fertilized with potent manure."
He was also a wicked impersonator who could send his friends into gales of laughter with his renditions of local personalities.
"Michael would have us rolling on the floor," said Concord Councilwoman Helen Allen. "He was never mean, and it was all in good fun. But he was really funny, and people really enjoyed being around him"
Despite Chavez' outward charm and his well-earned reputation as a master of self-promotion, he was a shy man. He struggled as a candidate and fledgling city councilman to overcome his visible discomfort with public speaking and schmoozing.
Chavez had also joined the council at a time when it faced one controversy after another, including the Wal-Mart dispute, the Concord Naval Weapons Station planning, police union negotiations and unrest about where to park boats and RVs.
It was, as one friend described Chavez' entry into elected life, a baptism by fire.
Chavez' years working as a hairstylist taught him customer service, but it ill-prepared him for the often unforgiving nature of voters, said friend and former Assemblyman Joe Canciamilla of Pittsburg.
"In many respects, his desire to make people happy is what made him a good human being, good councilman, father and husband," Canciamilla said. "But I think he cared so much about the community and everyone's feelings that it made it very challenging for him to be in a role where you can't make people happy all the time."
But in the past few months before his death, friends say, Chavez was beginning to settle into his new role, and he was sporting a slightly thicker shell around the heart he wore on his sleeve. He was loving the job and reveled in the Fourth of July parade, where he rode with his children.
"I think Michael would have grown into the job, continued to be one of the city's best council members and would have become one of the best leaders the city has seen in a long time," Canciamilla said.

I would like to know whether or not tea leaves are good for eating after using them to brew tea. For instance, using it to mix in cooked rice and adding hot water (tea rice). Although it may stain my teeth, the flouride in the tea might be good for oral health, will it not?
Eating tea leaves is common in many countries and cultures. It is used in a variety of recipes and is nutritious. As for the flouride - flouride is not all its cracked up to be and we get our fair share through other means.
As far as a nutrient though, eating tea leaves is good for us, giving us vitamins, anti oxidants and fibre alon with a variety of minerals we require to maintain good health.
