Hello, I have 2 rooms to let in a new and central Hobart townhouse. Rent amount is still to be finalised on the new lease (due to increase) but will be around $165 per week.

We usually eat dinner together and connect as a family and talk...it can get pretty raucous at times but you are welcome to be part of it or whatever makes you feel most comfortable.

Any idea why the top heat on the pepperoni seemed to be so much less that the other one?Nice looking Margarita style, but I would hit both of them. 2 hours is "super emergency", if you could make it 4 or 6 would make an exponential difference.my .02

Mixed lightly to form a batter like consistency.Let sit approx 20 min until it started bubbling."Let that sit for 2 hrs. then proceed.....you might find the cornicione snap an air you are seeking in this emergency dough. Good luck, Mark...always enjoy watching your experiments, thanks.

Topic: Creating SQL Joins to reduce SQL queries
Hi, me again:
Just looking for a way to either create a SQL join to reduce the number of SQL queries run.
Basically, now I have some clients which have an owner (from the users table).
I am producing a list of all clients and I want to print the name of the owner but I don't want to run a query for each client.
I would normally construct a query like:
SELECT c.*, u.surname AS owner_surname, u.forename AS owner_forename
FROM clients c
LEFT JOIN users u ON c.owner = u.id
At the moment I have a belongs_to setup:
belongs_to :owner, :class_name => "User", :foreign_key => "owner"
However, this is running a query for each client which isn't ideal (espically when you have lots of clients)
Client Load (0.001652) SELECT * FROM clients WHERE (clients.account_id = 1) ORDER BY name
Rendering within layouts/default
Rendering clients/index
Client Columns (0.002466) SHOW FIELDS FROM clients
User Load (0.001473) SELECT * FROM users WHERE (users.`id` = 1)
User Load (0.001415) SELECT * FROM users WHERE (users.`id` = 1)
I've had a look through the Agile rails book and a quick google although can't seem to find anything useful.

Favourite song is probably "With a girl like you", love the way Idle hams up his Macca impression!
Fave moment- love it when George is doing the interview and all the stuff's getting nicked from Apple (or whatever it is in the movie)
It's such a funny film
Eric Idle + Neil Innes = genius

In short: very nice friendly raceDate of review: July 30, 2012
In short: mud glorious mud, and 5 water crossings for the hell of it In full: I always enjoy this race. A real x-country race, of muddy fun. I was well surprised with my time, a new pb for the course, as I'm not as fit as I was last time I ran it. I probably paced this race a lot better this year. Bearbrook running club always organise a good race, and with a lot of marshalls out on the course, at the water crossings and ditches everyone was well looked after. A good mix of fast and fun runners, so this is a good race for anyone that wants to have some muddy good fun. A big thanks to everyone at Bearbrook. Date of review: February 19, 2012
In short: The hills were tougher than I rememeredIn full: This was my second comeback race and I found it a lot tougher than I remembered. Probably because I'm not as fit as I used to be. The hills were steeper and longer than I expected. The race is run on rememberance Sunday. And before the start their was one or two minutes silence. I arrived at the start with about 30 seconds to spare. Due to turning up late. The race started straight after the silence. The field set off on some well trodden grass which made it very muddy and slippy. I think a race was held there the day before. The first 1/2 mile was also the last 1/2 mile and it was good fun trying to stay upright as I was flat out for the finish. After the first mile on grass you have a short streatch of tarmac, which leads you to a hill and out of the park onto a golf course. I know this was going to be harder from that point as the hill was steeper than I expected. We was quickly across the trail and into the woods. There was lots of muddy puddles but it was easy to go around them and not lose anytime. Then the hills came quick and often. A couple of the hills were a little slippy but with a little care you was able to take them without slowing. The course was well marked,and had mile markers every mile. And lots of marshalls to help you on your way. It was nice to hear the marshall at the top of the last hill tell me it was easier from there. The trails were wide so overtaking wasn't a problem. After the last hill it was back across the golf course on a nice flat then gently down hill section. before you rentered the park for the last mile, returning the oppisite way back to the start, finish area.There was Gaterade for all finishers. And a bootbag for a momento. After a short walk back to the clubhouse. There was a buffet of sandwiches and other bits and loads of cakes and drinks. A big thank you to everyone who made this race possible. And a very big thank you to Colin the race organiser who emailed me the results because my computer wouldn't open the ones on the website. Date of review: November 17, 2010
In short: Great raceIn full: We had another good morning in Marlow. wot a lovely day for a race made all the more special as Jade won the junior girls category in 38:45 to set a new Pb. Once again Handycross joggers put on a very well organised race. With a fantastic goody bag. We don't want to sound ungrateful but we did think a trophy would have been a better prize for the junior winners, than a John Lewis voucher. WE stood by the Grant and Stone banners just before the finish line and was amazed how many runners we had to shout at to keep going as they fought they had just crossed the finish line. I think the organisers need to think about the way they can prevent this in the future. Maybe a 100 meter board would be a good idea. Apart from these two small points, we would all like to thank all the organisers and Marshall's for making this another great race.Date of review: May 10, 2009
In short: great venue nice friendly raceIn full: The race is run around a lovely lake. And the race HQ is in a pub that has a great big windmill as part of the building, very scenic. The organisers were very friendly, there was a nice relaxed atmosphere about the whole event, with a good mix of runners of all abilities, a good race for a first time run. There was about a 5 minute walk around the lake to the start, which was nice for the spectators, as we were able to see the whole course, and watch the runners on the other side of the lake, as we made our way back to the finish next to the pub. After just 200 meters we knew who the winner would be as she just ran away from the others. My step daughter started off in second place but soon dropped to fourth where she finished, first junior, I think she might have been the only one in the race. Her time of 22.24 was a new pb. So although a little disappointed at not finishing in the top 3 she was very happy with the time.There was bananas, choc biscuits and lollipops and water after the race, and a nice meddle, but the only disappointment was that there was no trophies, and I have marked down the value of the race for this. We came to the race looking to take away a trophy and was disappointed not too. A look at the previous results show that not many of the top 3 finishers in the earlier Chick Chase races have returned, So maybe the organisers need to address this. The only other bad thing about the race was the midges, but the organisers have no control over this problem. A nice pint in the pub after the race helped make this a very enjoyable morning. Date of review: March 25, 2009
In short: I started racing for this raceIn full: I'm a local and some friends of mine was talked into running it by another friend who runs it every year. It's one of the main events in the local callender.Two hard as nail hills followed by a long easy and fast down hill back to the local pub. Great views from the top of the hill. On a clear day you can see for miles. The race is open to all ages and you get families running it with their young kids. A very enjoyable event come and have some fun. Only down point it has been known to be short of marshalls but I think the problem has been adrssed.Date of review: April 7, 2008
In short: My favorite race was even more fun in the mudIn full: that was fun, the tough challenge was made even harder because of the mud. It was the third time I have run the race and I train on the course, and I would never have dreamt of getting up that hill in those conditions. After a few laps It would have been almost impossible to climb the hill with out the ropes. But that made it all the more fun and probably made the climb easier as you could rest your legs and pull yourself up. That's not to say there is anything easy about getting up that hill. As you run laps you get lots of support from other runners as you pass each other. For me the only thing that was missing this year was the cake and chocolate bars Rory provided for an energy boost. I love this race and will be back for my 4th crack at the 1/2, the marathon is to far for me, in the autumn. If you fancy a challenge this is the race for you give it a go. Date of review: March 21, 2008
In short: I nice senic run along the ThamesIn full: Due to the organising skills of the Donalds, who managed to change the course at very short notice, due to the flooding the race went ahead. A very pleasant run along the Thames. A bit muddy in places. In fact it was better than I had expected. This was the first time the race had been run and apart from 1 or 2 problems that can be sorted out for next year, the race was a great success. With better weather conditions before the race and a good starting postion as it was a bit narrow in places this is definatly a multi-terrain PB course.Date of review: July 29, 2007
In short: A new 10k pb course for me.In full: I knocked 23 secs off my old pb set last year. so very pleased with the run. Possibly a little to undulating for some that's why I've marked down the Pb potential. A very good race around some nice country lanes. The marshals were in all the right places and used tape and cones at some of the junctions to make sure the runners stayed out of the road. Would have liked to see some more encouragement from the marshals on the course. And that is the only knock I can give the event. Apart from that a very well organised race. Date of review: July 8, 2007
In short: This race truely lives up to it's nameIn full: Set in the beautiful Wendover woods, this is a truely great race. But only for the brave or the mad. I'm sure beginners would be welcome but they would need to be brave. I've only been running for just over 2 years but I'm mad.The course was changed for this year and it was a lot harder than last year. I ran, walked the 1/2 I don't think anyone can run up that hill 11 times 20 times if you did the full marathon. It's probibly the steepest hill in the woods and at times my hands were on the ground. I hadn't trained properly for the race due to injury and it was a stuggle from the word go. If you are thinking of running this race train properly for it. This is without doubt one of the toughest races in the country. And I beleive it is something everyone should run at least once. This was my second time and i'll be back in November to try again.The race is run over 2km laps up and down hills of verying degrees of differculty from gentle to you must be joking I can't run up there. Even the gentle hills become a challange as the big hill sapps your strenght and your will to carry on.The organisation is first class for a small race like this. Ambition events really know how to do things. The race organiser Rory Colman was there with his camara taking photos and videos of the runners which can be found on the Ambition events website. If you think you are tough enougth for the tough challenge then do it you won't regret it. Or at least you won't forget it.A big thanks to the Ambition events crew for another great race.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: A very good first Severn Bridge Half, which could become great with some tweaksIn full: A lovely location for a race, with a very unique location and setting.Plus Points :- Great course, with the main hill not being at all as bad as feared (but did still walk some of it. Oops)!- Nice medal and Technical T-Shirt- Entry fee was quite reasonable for what you get, and considering the major road closure.- Water was in bottles on the run, not cups. Always much appreciated and easier to drink from.- Good local support along the wayNegative Points :Several of these have already been realised by the organisers, but here we go anyway...- Parking queues. Thankfully we were directed down a side street so were lucky, but suspect many waited for a long time to park.- Toilets. Carnage. How were they ever meant to be enough with an entry limit of 2,600? Should have 3 or 4 times as many.- Toilets (again). Was a long time from leaving event HQ to starting the race (30 mins in the end) with no facilities, which meant I saw a lot of people in the first mile nipping into the fields, and one lady stopping whilst still on the bridge! If starting from the same spot next year, suggest portaloos on the bridge.- Footpath to the event HQ / finish. To narrow for the finish with all the spectators along the way- Finish line chaos as everyone was backlogged due to having to be given a carrier bag, then self service goodies. Just throw stuff in bags in advance and give to people. They can swap things later if wanted.- Food stalls down the hill. Stupid location, as wifey couldn't get there with a pushchair, and I was hesitant climbing up/down due to the slippery grass and no steps. Please rethink.All in all, was a great run, despite having to walk the final 6km due to injury.Would love to return in 2015.Date of review: August 28, 2014
In short: Well organised and managed Charity HalfIn full: Ample facilities and parking makes a good start for this run.The course has several ups in the first 3 miles, down for one, then 9 miles of undulations.Four water stations, all with bottled water, is fantastic, and one just before halfway had Gu gels also.All in all, a very good event, and whilst a PB may be a struggle here, it's a good course that I intend to do again.Date of review: May 12, 2013
In short: This small half just gets better each year!In full: A completely unexpected PB aside (albeit by 13 seconds), this event continues to shows the others how it should be done.Good race hq, friendly organisers, great value entry, which covers a t-shirt and post run sandwich.Looking forward to a 4th year at Droitwich in 2014!Date of review: March 3, 2013
In short: Another great StaggerIn full: Another superbly organised Stagger.Easy parking nearby, large meeting/changing area with ample facilities.Marshalls were superb throughout, holding up traffic, and shouting encouragement.Course was a very muddy for long stretches several times, slowing things down a lot, but at least there was no snow this year!Date of review: February 3, 2013
In short: A fast course, well organised and marshalled, with a bargain entry fee!In full: My second Cricklade Half, 4 years after my first try. I won't leave such a long gap next time!Very well organised, with various places to park for free (albeit with a 10-15 min walk to the hq). HQ had ample loos, bag storage, massage benches, and a coffee shop.5 min walk back to the race start, for a fast, flat course, on a perfect running day. Marshalls were all supportive, 4 water stations, and a good atmosphere.Will be back in 2013, and aiming for a PB!Date of review: October 9, 2012
In short: Good first time eventIn full: Really enjoyed this run, despite the persistent rain falling relentlessly throughout!Felt sorry for the marshalls being stuck there, but most were supportive of the 366 that completed the race.Facilities were all good, but I was very much deceived by the race letter that said parking was a 5 minute walk from the registration. It was actually 20+ minutes away, meaning my being late already, turned into a mad panic to get to the start line just as everyone was setting off! Pre-race stretching is over-rated anyway!Other than that, it was a lovely rural course. Forgot my jelly babies in my haste, so the energy gels on offer at 7 miles were an unexpected pleasure, followed by other offerings if wanted.No need for a medal and t-shirt, I believe just one will suffice, but thanks all the same.Would be happy to come again next year, but will leave home sooner!Date of review: September 27, 2012
In short: Great first running of this rural 10 milerIn full: Ten mile road races are something I feel we're very lacking in, so was very happy to try this inaugural event in Hereford.There's ample on site parking, adequate facilities, and a nice predominently rural course of undulating country lanes.The marshalls were all supportive, as was the cyclist who kept passing us by, and two well manned water stations to hydrated.The entry fee was good enough value that I was not bothered by the lack of a pointless cheap momento at the end.Hopefully Wye Valley will make this an annual event, and it can build upon the near 100 that completed it this year.Date of review: September 10, 2012
In short: Squelchy Squelchy!In full: Great organisation once again, ample parking and facilities. The course was pretty muddy, which sapped the legs of all strength early on, making it very heavy going, but great strength training!The course was 13 miles of peaceful woodland, passing jut a few other hikers and dogwalkers. Sadly, most of the time was spent looking down to see where it was safe to put your feet, rather than admiring the views!With the great value entry fee, and the beautiful location/course, it's just a shame that more people don't take advantage and participate in this magnificent run.Date of review: July 9, 2012
In short: Great local event, lovely rural route.In full: First time here. Arrived later than expected due to M54 problems, which led to a struggle finding a parking space. That aside, it was a perfect day and run.A lovely rural route primarily consisting of mildly undulating country lanes and farm tracks, with a little offroad intermingled. Water stations every 2 miles, with bottled water at every other stop, which is always appreciated over cups!Great supportive marshalls, good value entry, and the oranges at the end were a pleasant first!A well recommended alternative to larger, costly road races.Date of review: July 1, 2012
In short: Very fast course, with pleasant scenery and supportIn full: Enjoyed my first time here, and smashed my PB, which always makes for fond memories!Course is very flat, with just a few short bumps with a couple of miles to go.Ample parking at the hq, and good organisation throughout. Bottled water was gratefully received compared to the usual plastic cups.Scenery was a mixture of strong smelling fields of rape, open views, and small villages, with some good support scattered around.Will definately plan this one in for 2013!Date of review: May 8, 2012

In 2012, nearly $39 billion was spared to American givers via the charitable tax deduction, $33 billion of which went to the richest 20 percent of Americans. If that sounds like a lot, consider that it's associated with roughly $316 billion in charitable donations.
Yet for Professor Robert Reich, former Secretary of Labor under President Clinton, much of this generosity is not devoted to, well, "real charities." His beef has something to do with the wealthy's obsession with "culture places" — the opera, the symphony, the museum — realms that, in Reich's opinion, are undeserving of what should be an allocation to his own pet projects. "I'm all in favor of supporting fancy museums and elite schools," he writes, "but face it: These aren't really charities as most people understand the term."
The picking and choosing follows in turn, descending farther and farther into the typical terrain of progressive materialism — focusing excessively on surface-level transfers of this particular dollar into that particular hand and lambasting those rebellious Makers and Givers for getting it all wrong.

Seared Sea Scallops in Beurre Blanc with Baby Spring Vegetables in Puff Pastry
- 1 sheet of frozen puff pastry, thawed and cut into 4 1/2-inch diameter circles
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- Sea salt
- 1 cup sweet baby peas, frozen or fresh
- 2 bunches baby carrots, trimmed and peeled with a little stem left on
- 1 pound sea scallops
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 pint chanterelles, halved (or similar wild mushroom if chanterelles aren't available)
- 1/2 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
- Buerre Blanc:
- 2 shallots, sliced
- 2 cups dry white wine
- 1 cup white wine vinegar
- 8 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 bay leaves
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, cut into cubes and chilled
- 2 tablespoons freshly chopped chives
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Begin by baking the puff pastry "cups". Lay the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured, cool surface. Using a 4 1/2-inch round cutter, cut out 4 circles. Set them on a parchment-lined sheet tray. Lightly score the tops of the puff pastry with a 4-inch round cutter. This will help remove the top of the puff pastry after it is cooked, to create a "cup". Beat egg then use a pastry brush to brush the tops. Season with sea salt and place into the preheated oven. Bake in oven for 12 to 15 minutes until golden and crispy. Once cooled, cut the "tops" of the "cups" and lay bases out on plates.
While the "cups" are baking, make the beurre blanc. In a large, clean saucepan add shallots, white wine, white wine vinegar, fresh thyme and bay leaves. Simmer until reduced by half then season well with salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Strain the sauce, place back over low heat and reduce. Add the cream and stir. Add butter several cubes at a time while stirring until the sauce thickens. Keep warm and set aside.
Blanch the peas and carrots. Set a pot of salted water over high heat and bring to a boil. Add carrots first to give them a head start then add the peas briefly to cook the vegetables until tender but still firm - about 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Clean scallops and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set a large saute pan over high heat and add olive oil. Once heated, add scallops and cook undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until well browned. Set aside on paper towels.
Increase the heat and add the chanterelles and saute. Add carrots and peas to the pan and saute for 1 to 2 minutes until heated through. Add the scallops back to the pan, on top of the vegetables, to heat through.
To serve, portion out amongst the pastry cups. Top with a matching pastry lid - rest it just off center so you can see the filling and garnish with chives and a stem of fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Jim Davis is earnest and detailed, if not very flashy.
By ALEX LEARY
Published July 29, 2006
The congresswoman from South Florida trembled at the lectern, her defiant words carried on national television on Palm Sunday.
"Where will we stop if we allow this to go forward?" she asked. "Today it'll be Terri Schiavo; tomorrow it'll be my brother ..."
Slowly, the camera pulled back. A thin, gray-haired man stood in the rear of the conference room, head cocked to the side, eyes squinting.He stepped forward. It was a dramatic moment. Jim Davis had something to say.
But before he could speak, the moment disappeared. Another congressman beat him to the microphone. Davis retreated and, like a proud father, patted Debbie Wasserman Schultz on the back.
That scene, captured on C-SPAN as Schiavo's right-to-die saga concluded last year, exemplifies Davis' 17 years in politics.
Over a career that has stretched from Tallahassee to Washington, Davis has been intimately involved in some of the biggest and most complicated issues of the day, from oil drilling to class-size reduction to limiting the influence of lobbyists.
Yet his low-key, studious personality — all the more emphasized by patrician looks — means Davis has often gone unnoticed. He is comfortable as the wonk, toiling in the background to shape policy, sometimes, as with class size, well before it becomes a popular issue.
"I turned down Larry King three times after Schiavo," Davis said on a recent Monday, gobbling down a blueberry muffin after stepping off an 8 a.m. flight into Tallahassee. "I didn't see the purpose. I did my job. I organized the press conference. I helped organize the debate."
Now Davis, 48, has firmly placed himself in the spotlight as one of two main Democratic candidates for governor.
He is a typical Democrat in many ways; staunchly supportive of public schools and health care, strong on the environment. He was an early advocate of mandatory recycling and energy conservation and has supported his share of taxes.
But he also has shown a tendency to veer from his party's traditional stances. While in Tallahassee, he voted in favor of a bill that, had it not been vetoed by Gov. Lawton Chiles, would have permitted student-led school prayer.
In Washington, he supported a constitutional amendment to ban the desecration of the American flag and favored a ban on partial-birth abortions.
As a member of an energy and commerce subcommittee, he helped write the law cracking down on broadcasters after the infamous Janet Jackson Super Bowl incident. Davis once voted against gay adoption, though he now says he has changed his mind.
After serving as a state representative from Tampa for eight years, the final two as majority leader, Davis launched an improbable bid for Congress in 1996 when Sam Gibbons retired. Davis faced a primary crowd of better-known Democrats, including former Tampa Mayor Sandy Freedman. The race got ugly.
Davis hit first, blaming Freedman for the shooting deaths of two police officers in 1995 because of a policy forbidding them from carrying shotguns in the front of their cruisers. Freedman blasted Davis for voting years earlier against a restitution package for Freddie Pitts and Wilbert Lee, convicts who had been pardoned for a 1963 murder of two service station attendants.
Davis won a runoff, then defeated Republican Mark Sharpe. Davis was named president of the freshman class in Congress and joined a group of centrists named the New Democrat Coalition that worked with President Bill Clinton to forge consensus with Republicans.
As a member of the minority party in the House of Representatives, Davis has had little of the freedom he enjoyed in the Florida Legislature. Without Republican support, bills go nowhere, so he tends to not file many. In an odd way, the partisan landscape has played to Davis' strength by forcing him to do much of his work out of sight, in committee and through the amendment process.
In 2001, for instance, after trying for three years to push a bill to provide grants up to $5,000 to encourage mid-career people to become teachers, he was forced to slip the program into an appropriations bill packed with pet projects. Davis, who publicly abhorred such tactics in the past, threw up his hands. "If I were in control of this place, and it ran the way it was supposed to run, this is not the way I would do it," he said at the time. "But I am not going to sit back and watch this (teacher shortage) get worse."
In March 1999, Clinton gave Davis one of his earliest legislative victories by signing into law a bill barring nursing homes from evicting Medicaid patients to make room for those with more profitable insurance. The issue arose after a retired mail carrier in Tampa complained to Davis and other lawmakers about the treatment of his mother. Today, on the stump, Davis invokes the law as an example of his ability to work with Republicans — Rep. Mike Bilirakis of Palm Harbor was a co-sponsor — and a philosophy of listening directly to constituents.
In 2001, Davis again formed a cross-party alliance, this time to oppose oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. He and former Rep. Joe Scarborough of Pensacola, now a conservative commentator, won a House vote derailing President Bush's plans for the offshore oil and natural gas reserves.
"Congressman Davis was the architect of that victory," said Mark Ferrulo, director of the Florida Public Interest Research Group. "He's the one who drafted amendments, held town hall meetings, picked up the phone and lobbied other congressmen."
But Davis has not always displayed such flexibility. With gas prices soaring and the Middle East increasingly unstable, offshore drilling has resurfaced with gusto this year. Support has never been greater for the idea of expanding gulf drilling to the waters off Florida.
Only two days before a House vote, Davis and others refused to budge to the changing political reality. The House voted in late June to allow rigs as close as 50 miles offshore. Davis' intransigence was seen by some as aimed at scoring points in his bid for governor while hurting the Florida delegation's chances for negotiating a better deal.
"He played no active role in the negotiations," said Rep. Adam Putnam, R-Bartow. "Anything we could have done to bring on more Democrats would have given us additional leverage to create a better deal for Florida."
Davis' higher aspirations also were called into question during his July 2005 vote against the Central American Free Trade Agreement. He had long been an advocate of free trade, so the move seemed to some a political calculation to secure union support. Davis declared he was running for governor in February of that year.
Davis said it was a difficult decision, but he feared CAFTA countries would not be accountable for enforcement of labor and environmental laws. In an interview this month, he acknowledged the legislation has some benefits for Florida, which exports billions to CAFTA countries, but said he stands by his vote. The vote drew praise from the Florida AFL-CIO, but Davis did not get its endorsement this year (nor did his opponent state Sen. Rod Smith. The union let local chapters make their own call).
Today, Davis' stump speech reflects his personality — earnest and detailed, seldom flashy. With one exception: Terri Schiavo. It is one of his most aggressive talking points; at times, he seems swept up in his own fervor, boldly declaring his actions the "beginning of the end of the Bush administration's stranglehold on our freedom."
He was campaigning in Pasco County the day before Palm Sunday last year when he got a message about the impending House vote to intervene in the case. "And I got on the plane the next morning and I went to Washington.'' He says he was advised by party colleagues to steer clear of the matter, which had Christian conservatives up in arms.
But Davis and other Democrats persisted and got the Republican leadership to hold a debate at 9 p.m. instead of midnight. "I was amazed," Wasserman Shultz said. "He had already declared for governor and there had been no polling on the issue. The path of least resistance for him would have been to stay home."
Davis entered politics in a crowd. Just like his congressional run years later, his first crack at a state House seat in 1988 came amid a crowded field of candidates. He was a 30-year-old lawyer, determined to follow the public service of his grandfather, Cody Fowler.
Surprising almost everyone but himself, Davis won state House District 64 on a diet of relentless door-to-door politics and fundraising.
As a state House member, he emerged as a leader on environmental and education issues, known for meticulous preparation. In 1990, he won the Allen Morris Award as most promising first-term member. "He was about as close to an intellectual as you could be," said former state Rep. Carl Carpenter of Plant City, who sat next to Davis.
His focus on the arcane came out on complex issues such as energy. In 1992, Davis got hold of an insider report on how many power plants were needed to meet the state's growing demands. So he drafted a bill calling on utilities to offer more conservation measures, offsetting the need for plants. The bill died, but Davis had modest success in getting the Public Service Commission to pass a rule mandating more conservation.
In 1995, incoming House Speaker Peter Rudy Wallace tapped Davis majority leader. It came at a trying time for the Democratic Party because Republicans had begun their ascent. Davis himself barely won re-election against an unknown challenger. Still, the year provided Davis with what he considers one of the biggest accomplishments of his career — class-size reduction.
The idea arose after Eric Draper, staff director in the majority office, complained about how crowded his twin daughters' first-grade class was at a Tallahassee elementary school. "Jim said, 'Let's do this,' " Draper recalled.
The bill was filed by another member, but Draper and others say Davis was crucial. "Unlike a lot of people, he doesn't stop to think about who's going to get the credit or the headline," Draper said.
The plan set aside tens of millions of dollars to build more classrooms, but was scrapped not long after Jeb Bush became governor in 1998. In 2002, however, then-state Sen. Kendrick Meek put class-size reduction at the forefront with a successful constitutional amendment. (In a twist, Meek has endorsed Davis' opponent, Smith, who initially opposed amending the constitution.)
One of Wallace's objectives was to change the culture of Tallahassee with a proposal to bar lawmakers from accepting meals from lobbyists valued at more than $25. Davis had the job of rounding up support. "This change is overdue. I think this change is inevitable," he said during a floor debate in April 1996. "Change is hard, we know that better than anybody. But I think today is the day to make that step and adopt this change."
It was one of Davis' final acts as a state lawmaker, and he went out with a lopsided defeat. In a week, the session was over and he turned his attention to the race for Congress.
Nearly 10 years later, in 2005, Tallahassee lawmakers approved a lobbyist gift ban.

I wrote the review "I would love to love this" which I have pasted below. After the review someone from the company responded and the sent me a replacement. I think it is awesome that a company is willing to do that and I am so excited to get to use the Eggspert again. Because of this I am changing my recommendation to a "yes I would recommend" and will be looking to get things from this company again since I know they stand behind their products.Original Review:I had used the wired eggspert for years and was happy to upgrade to the wireless version. I received the unit halfway through last year and it worked well. This year I went to use it and the teacher remote won't work. Without that, the system is useless. I'm not sure what happened to the remote since it was working fine the last time.

I use the wireless eggspert and it has been VERY FRUSTRATING, it doesn't seem to get the signal from the eggs or the remote. Students had to press the eggs many times before it lights up, if even does it at all. Does things when you have not touch the eggs or the remote.It is very expensive product that doesn't do his job at all.I want to smash it against the wall sometimes.

Great for adults too - but buzzers are unfixable
By Cecilia
from Mexico City
About Me Education Oriented
Comments about Educational Insights Wireless Eggspert® 2.4gHz:
I use the wireless eggspert as an exciting and unexpected tool for adult training sessions and they love it! Easy way to add gamification and fun to an otherwise boring training. I'd been using it for two years and suddenly, on the same day, two of the buzzers broke - purple and orange. Sadly, that means I can only use wheel of fortune model from now on, and it is not quite as fun as participants using the buzzers. Tried to buy replacements or get them fixed, but that's not possible. I don't think I'll be using it again.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: Hi CeciliaEmail me at email@example.com, we want to be sure you continue to use your Wireless Eggspert in your training sessions.

Broken Buzzer
By Wilks

About Me Teacher
I received mine yesterday and used it today for a skills review. We found the blue buzzer did not work. I thought it was the batteries, so I replaced them. It still was not working. Is there a way for me to get a replacement?

Longtime Eggspert User, but Saddened by Wireless
By loveykel
from Wilmington, DE
About Me Parent of Two or More Children
I am a teacher. My current role is a Reading Specialist. My Wireless Eggspert is my 3rd Eggspert purchase. My first 2 were with wires. I had two because I wanted my interns and parent volunteers to be able to use them and it was a special reward during inside recess sometimes! Anyway, I was thrilled when the wireless version came out. It really keeps my small group table neater. However, 2/6 buttons no longer work. I've changed the batteries multiple times. It is very frustrating to have them working, and then not. My students ask for them, but it isn't the same to only play the "wheel of fortune" mode and not the "quiz show" mode. I'm just very disappointed. The warranty is limited and buying replacement buttons is very expensive.
Merchant response: Oh no loveykel, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com, this is one of our favorite items and we want you to love it to!
By Amber
from Bellville, OH
I use this product in my classroom to do trivia to review for tests and quizzes. I had no issues, but then the pink buzzer broke. I replaced the batteries, and it still does not work. Is there any way to get a replacement buzzer?
Merchant response: Hey Amber! Yikes, hopefully you've received the new pink buzzer and are back in action this school year! Let us know how it's working firstname.lastname@example.com.

About Me Child Care Professional
I use this product in my high school classes. I told my students that they must be EXTREMELY careful with the buzzers. Even after saying this and observing them being delicate with them, after one session two buzzers stopped working. I replaced the batteries, tried moving them closer, restarted everything, but nothing happened. The main tower also does not light up the broken buzzers 'eggs' when using 'wheel of fortune' mode. I'm really disappointed. I wanted to use this throughout the year, but right now I'm frustrated that I spent so much on it.
Merchant response: Hi StephI'm sorry your Wireless Eggspert is not "egg-septional". Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com so we can get you some new buzzers right away!
I very love this product... but he is broken
By ISa
from Varennes, Canada
Hi! I have buy the Wireless eggsperts and my student very love them. Last week, i want to use the Wireless and i realise that he dont work. I open the eggspert before the teacher remote (like you said in the guide), but all the light open and never close. The week before, my orange button (the button for student) doesn't work, and i only can use 5 buttons. Do you think that the orange button it's the reason why nothing work now? My students are very sad that we can't play anymore. Thanks for your answer!

Works well for the price - be careful with the buzzers
By Chesirewonders
from La Porte, TX
I use this for my "Fabulous Quiz Show" and have lots of success. The only negative is the lasting quality of the pods, or buzzers. The purple one is already broken. We use them quite a bit, though, and the purple buzzer was broken after another teacher borrowed the set. I plan on buying an extra set to have ready replacements. Perfect for the use and I think priced for the value.
I would love to love this...

PHOTOS: Freak Flags, Bare Buns Fly At The Fremont Solstice Parade
As they have for the past 21 years, the Solstice Cyclists kicked off the Fremont Solstice Parade in Seattle on Saturday, June 16, when overcast skies and temperatures in the 60s didn't stop bold participants from stripping naked and painting their bodies for a brisk spin down Market Street. What a cool way to celebrate the arrival of summer!

Is the censorship really necessary? Seems like even some mainstream mags would print these pictures without it. But maybe I wrong.
Seriously you're going to hide the jiggly bits? Sheesh.
Guess I am an old prude but I would not take my kids (especially little girls) to watch a bunch of guys with their junk hanging out. Bad taste in my opinion! It's okay at an all gay or even all adult event but certain standards should apply where children are concerned.
@Bob: There are nude women there too….and I disagree. Everyone has a body, even children.
@Bob: Agree with jerald and to expand on it.
teeny weenies
"Everyone has a body, even children."
Sounds like something a pedophile would say to justify showing his junk to kids.
Mostly nude men that I can see, but maybe that's due to being on this site. I still say that little children, particularly little girls don't need to witness naked grown men with their dicks swinging in the breeze. Yes eveyone has body, including children, but there is a big difference between an adult's body and a child's body. I an not against nudity, I go to nude beaches, but I do not like seeing children on these beaches and stay clear of them. Many people in these nude beaches agree. I blame the parents who bring them to this event. @jerald:
I need to figure out how to open an intergalactic wormhole to an invasive alien race so these guys will come and give me a collective spanking. Captain america, I have been real naughty!
@Bob: Perhaps the parents who bring their children to these sort of events are teaching them that there should be no shame or discomfort attached to the human body. If parents are open and communicative about nudity, it helps to remove the mystery and may avoid body-issue stigmas as kids grow older.
@TanyaHyde: Another pedo.
@Bob: You are asserting your beliefs onto others. The kids in the parade don't look traumatized. As long as these folks don't perform sexual acts on the streets, a bit of planned nudity won't shatter the pillars of our society.
Here is a flickriver link to the parade.
http://www.flickriver.com/search/fremont+solstice+parade+2012/ (NSFW, of course)
@Wow: What a depressing spectacle. Is this what America's come to?
Nudity is not sex.
It is being held in America after all in Seattle and the gov there doesn't think its illegal or immoral or indecent.
But I am sure some religious Reich person was their screaming their condemnation.
WTF? what is with the silly censorship here? are we still so prudish? on a GAY website? why even bother to print photos or even report on this event? and NO, nudity does no harm to children – I wish that I had seen such a parade as a kid, I would have grown up without so many gotdamn hang-ups that I had to bust out of in the 60's & 70's
Wow! Where do I see the pictures without the little black boxes?!?!?! Haha!
@Tony: There is a little-known tool called Google.
To those not familiar with our city, Fremont is an enclave of Seattle. It is basically the area of Seattle where San Francisco's Haight/Ashbury decided to retire. This is an annual event that is revered and well publicized throughout Seattle.. It is predominantly heterosexual people, pretty evenly split between men and women. Also to get to this area you need to make a special trip. There is no accidental viewing by anyone "just passing by". The few kids I have seen at this event in years past seemed completely happy, comfortable and content. The kids there are not children of high strung conservatives, but kids whose parents have raised them to be comfortable with the human body.
#9 is drop-dead GORGEOUS!!
Here is a nsfw link to the video of the cyclists…Captain America appears at the end =)
DOH, link here
My monitor must be broken. There are little black boxes all over it. I hope it is still under warranty.
This is why as a gay person mysel, I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE THE GAY COMMUNITY AND GAY LIFESTYLE BECAUSE OF FILTHY SHIT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!
at least provide a link back to the original site with the unedited pics. Saw Captain America on the youtube video. That black box is quite impressive.
""This is why as a gay person mysel, I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE THE GAY COMMUNITY AND GAY LIFESTYLE BECAUSE OF FILTHY SHIT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!"""
The painted cyclists are not a gay group. It's only posted here because a couple of them are good looking men. And there is nothing filthy about the human body.
Spoken like a morally correct Christian.
With that Godwinian comment, you have shut-down a conversation about nudity.
Forget about even getting nude
Tanya, note how the "moral majority" quickly resorts to name-calling, character assassination and demoralizing people who are comfortable with their bodies and those of others.
This is how they attempt to control and dominate the thinking of others by instilling shame, guilt and bad feelings about themselves and their bodies.
They claim to believe in an omnipotent, inerrant God who makes no mistakes.
Yet they would debase the human body which he created and which is supposedly fashioned after his own image.
And comment number 24, is the living embodiment of a person who has been so successfully brainwashed about the "filthiness" of the human body, that he must be living in a self-imposed hell.
@Schlukitz: Before you hurl insults at me, have you ever stopped to think that maybe I'm a victim of a child sexual abuse? That maybe my pedophile talked me into it by first telling me that it's OK, because "we should all be comfortable with our bodies"?
Picture 12 is not from the Solstice parade, as it breaks two of the three rules of the parade: No printed signs or logos, and no motorized vehicles. It's probably from Seattle's drab and boring pride parade.
You are the one laying your disdain on others, hurling insults and calling people pedos….and you are the one whining that insults are being hurled at you? What's wrong with that picture?
I am truly sorry that you were the victim of sexual abuse as a child. It was heinous of the person who committed this crime against you.
That said, did you ever stop to consider that the very reason he committed this crime, may well have been due to the brainwashing and conditioning that made him feel ashamed of his body and his sexual urges? So much so, in fact, that he became totally incapable of expressing his sexual desires in a mature, socially acceptable way and had to resort to the only sexual situation in which he would have total control which was by forcing himself onto a totally helpless child?
What this man did to you was certainly the inappropriate actions of a pedophile and there is absolutely no excuse for what he did. He obviously needs counseling to help him deal with his sexual needs and desires that have run amok and I dare say that you also could have benefitted greatly from some counseling as well to help you work your way through your feeling of having been sexually violated.
Had you cared enough for yourself to get some help, you would not be turning your understandable hurt and anger outward toward the rest of us and trying to make us feel guilty for what happened to you. We are not the ones who committed this crime against you and you need to understand that.
If you care enough about yourself, I would strongly suggest that you do avail yourself of some help in dealing with the conflicted feelings which you are obviously suffering from. There is absolutely no reason, whatsoever, why you should be carrying this burden on your shoulders alone.
I wish only the best for you.
With: "Is the censorship really necessary?" I was referring to the report of the event in this gay, adult-oriented e-zine, not the event itself. Whether that is acceptable or not is another matter entirely.
Since it did take place,I think we can risk a bit of non-erect dick on a site like this. Women and children can seek out or stumble upon every sex act known to man and beast on the rest of the Internet; nothing in this parade is going to scar anyone for life.
@Schlukitz: Yeah. Just what I expected. You blamed the victim and found excuses for the criminal.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Beautiful people – each and every one of them.
And can we calm down the pedo meter here? There's nothing sexual going on here and this is an annual tradition. I'm sure every parent knows what their child will see and are fine with it. It's not a big deal.
@Schlukitz: And just so we're clear, pedophiles aren't victims. They're not the ones to be pitied. They are selfish, reckless people. They destroy lives. And they do so knowingly.
Hopefully one day you'll be able to understand that.
@Making up stuff is fun!: I hope we can all agree that pedophiles commit appalling crimes. While "Everyone has a body, even children" is definitely not the most articulate defense of public nudity, the implication that non-sexualized nudity in a setting like this parade is somehow equivalent to sexual abuse does nothing more than distract from the truly heinous crimes perpetrated by sex traffickers, child pornographers, and other pedophiles.
June 28th and temperatures in the 60's in Seattle. Thank goodness
I don't live there. But sure wish I was visiting.
Nice, I want to bang Captain America.
What kind of an example are these people setting for our children? Very few of those bicyclists were wearing helmets. If any one of them was in an accident this could result in serious, life long injuries even death. No matter how long your trip or the speed at which one is traveling, a helmet is a MUST when on a bicycle. We need to consistently model this behavior for children.
And that body paint better be non-toxic.
anyone know of a link to see the captain america full frontal?
Ummm…where can I find these uncensored photos of Captain America?!
@Making up stuff is fun!:
No, better this then prudish be ashamed of your body and as others have said, nudity is not sex.
Wanting to see naked children might be pediophilia, this is not.
Claims that public nudity will lead to pedophilia are as absurd and un-based as the religious right claiming that same-sex marriage will lead to incest and man-on-dog sex/marriage.
There is no scientific evidence to support either claim.
You gays make me laugh. These people are NOT gay they are hippies who have no body issues.
Its my personal experience that most gays have tons of body issues, so understandably some of you will be personally not in favor of this
but equating these hippies to pedophiles? Wow… that reminds me of the religious nutjobs who equate homosexuality to pedophilia. Fucking self-hating homo!

Looking forward to seeing the results.
My raisen starter is super bubbly just after 4 days. The plastic on top is domed as in your pictures and it does smell very sweet right through the plastic wrap. I'm being impatient and not sure I can hold off feeding it for 3 more days.
I'm so darn impatient but you're right Mike. LOL, a few of the raisens have swelled up from the gas build up, they look like they are gonna pop. My wife saw it on the counter this morning and said, "What's with the science project with the beans?".
TM,Today is your day, right?? Feeding time.
Well Mikey, I just came home from dinner. It has been about 3 hours since the first feeding and this sucka has DOUBLED in volume. I took a whiff and nearly passed out. This thing must be 100 proof! If I didn't know any better, I'd say it's ready to be used now. I'll stick to the feeding regimen though. I can see why you say it has excellent leavening power. To me, it smells even more alcoholic than it did before feeding. Looking forward to trying it out.
Oh, and make sure you keep us posted and post pics of your upcoming pies!
Essen,You stated you see good browning characteristics with sourdoughs?I recognize the opposite, I find that my sourdough breads are very difficult to get a golden brown coloring in them.That is why I thought the dough would be perfect for a high-heat situation like a WFO running at 900+ degrees, the crust would not burn like typical bread flours burn.

Favorite Cameras of 2011
2011 wasn't a good year for camera companies, as production was hammered by the twin disasters of the tsunami in Japan and the floods in Thailand. But even though they were beaten they were not bowed, and a few gems still managed to make their way into our hands. Time to look back, reflect and rediscover my favorite cameras of 2011.

This week, in more than 18 countries around the world, women will come together with a broad coalition of supporters in their communities to participate in the Vital Voices Mentoring Walks, a global effort to raise awareness on the positive power of mentorship.
Since 2006, the State Department and FORTUNE have teamed up with Vital Voices to build on our annual Global Mentorship Partnership to expand the network of women -- and men -- who use mentorship to empower others. In fact, the mentoring walks started when founder and former CEO of Oxygen Media Geraldine Layborne's schedule didn't allow her to meet with the scores of young women who sought her advice. Instead of rejecting meeting requests, she opened her morning walks each day in New York City as a gateway for her to connect with these young women. Today, these walks have spread across the United States and throughout the world.
As Secretary Clinton said, "There are women and girls in our country and around the world, who have the talent, the intellect, the drive to succeed, but who lack the support." The State Department/Fortune Global Women's Mentoring Partnership seeks to provide the support to springboard women leaders into action as they pursue their dreams. You can learn about this thriving partnership in the video.
Now, with close to 200 women alumnae of our Global Mentorship Partnership, we have expanded that reach to every region of the world. This week, Mentoring Walks will take place in Argentina, China, Egypt, El Salvador, Ghana, Haiti, India, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Lebanon, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Panama, Poland, Serbia, South Africa, Tunisia, and Uganda.
From small towns to thriving metropolises, these Mentoring Walks serve as a reminder that through mentorship we can spark the next new idea, empower a young girl, or inspire the next generation of global leaders.
Join the conversation on Twitter and share how mentorship has impacted you. Use the hashtags #MentoringWalk and #VVLead and let us hear your story.

About the Forums RedesignMark Nichoson May 10, 2012 9:13 PM
Thank you to everyone who participated in our Forum reskin private beta. We received a lot of very helpful feedback that went a long way in helping us really understand what is most valuable and important to all of our members.
The Adobe Forums have not had a major design update since we originally launched on the Jive platform back in 2009. However, with the launch of Adobe Creative Suite 6 and the Adobe Creative Cloud, we expect that the Adobe Forums will become an even more essential resource for the entire Adobe community.
In fact, one of the major design goals was to create a more integrated user experience between the Creative Cloud, Adobe.com, and the Forums. Some of the major changes include:
- Dramatically simplified global navigation
- More consistent sign-in/sign-out experience
- Common UI elements and interface conventions, including shared fonts (Adobe Clean served via TypeKit) and color palettes. In fact, both the Creative Cloud and Adobe Forums now use a dark-grey right-hand navigation panel where all of the tools/actions are aligned (just like in our desktop apps).
- Streamlined interface, pared clean of cluttered icons and redundant options — so you can really focus on the content that you care most about.
- And finally, an optimized layout designed to cultivate the true heart and soul of the Forums experience: community Q&A.
This last goal, in particular, is the most exciting for all of us on the Adobe team – we understand that in a true community of experts, help is not a document. It's a conversation. That conversation starts here – in this forum with this community. And the whole team here at Adobe, from design to engineering, honors that simple idea and we hope to share more exciting news with you over the coming months as we explore fresh ways to create connections, conversations, and content.
And yes, we know -- the new theme is still not 100% perfect so please continue to report bugs in the Known Issues thread. The team is listening and we will be responding quickly with new patches and bug fixes on a regular basis. In the meanwhile, we look forward to many, many great conversations to come!

JBS lagoon on fire
Comets clinch playoff berth, 48-13
CONRAD – BCLUW coach Jess VanderWeerdt had to plug a few holes in the trenches.
Though his shift in personnel showed very few leaks as a unit Friday.
Limiting the Wolverines to five first downs, 36 rushing yards and 212 yards of total offense, BCLUW wrapped up third place in Class A Division 4 and its first playoff berth since 2006 with a 48-13 drumming of GMG Friday.
Conner Ubben rushed for three touchdowns and tossed a pair of TDs to Taylor Sams as the Comets (4-4, 3-2) piled up 455 yards of total offense. Ubben reached the end zone on quarterback keepers of 9, 7 and 2 yards all in the last 6:11 of the second quarter to stretch a one-point lead to 27-6 at the half.
"It starts up front. This is how we hoped it would go," said VanderWeerdt, who saw an opportunity for his team to dominate the line of scrimmage after comparing stats from his team and GMG against Belle Plaine.
"They weren't able to run the ball up the middle very well. Chuck (Neff) and Nolan (Emley) got that push and kept that line of scrimmage to keep those linebackers free."
Due to the suspension of Lane Caster, Jeremy Burnett and Gavin Patterson stemming from an incident Saturday, VanderWeerdt moved around several players on his roster including Clarke Macy, Carter King and sophomore Austin Willett, who made his first varsity start at receiver.
The transitions proved pretty seamless as BCLUW's defense allowed just two first downs in the opening half, one resulting from a roughing the kicker penalty, as GMG managed just eight rushing yards in the first two quarters.
"We couldn't get a couple of their kids blocked," said GMG coach Mike Spurlin. "When we can't get the people up front blocked, we can't run our offense. It got to a point where we had to pass most of the time and even when we threw we still couldn't get most people blocked."
The Wolverines (4-4, 2-3) found some early momentum with a 65-yard strike from Bridger Claassen to Bryce Newcomb on the third play of the second half. The score pulled GMG within 27-13, though the Comets closed things out with 21 unanswered points in the fourth.
Luke Asche's 3-yard touchdown run stretched the margin to 34-13 on the opening play of the fourth, before Emley blocked a punt on the Wolverines' ensuing possession to set up another score. Ubben hooked up with Sams for their second scoring connection with a 15-yard pass at the 10:05 mark. Sams led the Comets' receiving corps with 144 yards on five catches, while Ubben completed 9-of-12 passes for 193 yards, two touchdowns and one interception, while also helping out on defense.
Tyler Lutes punched in a 2-yard score in the final minute and led the BCLUW ground game with 109 yards on 15 carries. Asche added 84 yards on 18 rushes and Ubben dashed for 66 yards on eight carries.
Sams got the Comets on the board with a 37-yard reception to close the first frame, before Claassen matched it with a 37-yard pass to a wide-open Dillon Slingluff early in the second. BCLUW blocked the extra point to ensure they held the upper hand all night, before Ubben widened the gap with his three rushing scores.
"When we got in the red zone tonight, we put the ball in the end zone, which is the first time we've consistently done that all year," said VanderWeerdt, whose squad has responded from a 1-3 start by winning three of its last four.
"Our kids didn't quit. Realistically we knew our schedule was front-loaded."
Caster, Burnett and Patterson will miss at least the next two games – including the program's first playoff game in seven years, which VanderWeerdt expects to be against Turkey Valley in Jackson Junction.
"We miss those guys. We're going to miss them next week and we're going to miss them against (Turkey Valley)," said VanderWeerdt.
"Just having that extra depth and being able to roll more guys in and out. … Hopefully we can stay healthy. Our guys are pretty excited, it's been '06 since there's been a playoff team here."
Claassen finished 9-of-12 passing for 176 yards and two scores, while Newcomb was his primary target with four receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown. Slingluff had two grabs for 42 yards. Vaughn had a 20-yard catch and led the Wolverines on the ground with 33 yards on 13 carries – 29 of which came on a fake punt.
Both teams cap the regular season on the road next Friday. GMG takes on No. 10 ranked Gladbrook-Reinbeck, while BCLUW faces off with Iowa Valley.
BCLUW won the last meeting between the teams 48-17 in Garwin last year.

Spring 2000
Volume 4 Number 4
A theologian, a biblical scholar, and a historian
sit down to discuss the Gospel
A bad way to start a joke, but a good way
to introduce three of Princeton Seminarys newest faculty members:
William Stacy Johnson, C. Clifton Black, and Scott H. Hendrix.
Over lunch in the cafeteria, students already
praise and critique them, observations running from theological nuance to
teaching style to fashion sense. In a relatively short time, students have
come to know them well. So how to introduce the new professors to those
who dont daily interact with them on campus?
Professors Johnson, Black, and Hendrix exchanged
ideas for ninety minutes over coffee and juice in a small reading room in
Luce Library. They focused the lenses of their different perspectives,
disciplines, and denominations (Presbyterian, Methodist, and Lutheran,
respectively) on what unites them to each other and to their faculty
colleagues, to students, to alumni/ae, and to the rest of the church: the
Gospel of Jesus Christ. The discussion (edited for space) focuses on
Romans 1:16.
More than just introducing themselves, the new
professors wrestle with what it means for us to be unashamed of the Gospel
