Where I stayed
Cairns can be done in a day - although there are day trips and tours once you escape civilisation - and of course the sea might have something to offer.. ;)
The town has this fabulous man-made lagoon for chilling/swimming, as the area is actually just mangrove swamps.
I popped into the local museum = a very entertaining experience - a slightly crazy tour guide who got us all to 'wear' croc skulls, shark jaws and even sawfish! Other weird stuff included gas-operated irons and water-powered kitchen mixers - it was all there!
The YHA had a great communal area - including pool and spa - extremely nice having a foot spa when waiting for midnight Greyhound buses! As I left the rain cleaned out Cairns.

stpetegirl:I know it's not good for wine, does it matter with spirits? I need to pick some up for me and for a friend's bday gift and I would rather not walk into the office with a few bottles of vodka under my arm.
lol. I think that it is fine. My answer is based on yo ho ho and a bottle of rum. It's hot in the islands, right?
Was it you who I was discussing infused vodka last year?
In any case, TRY SAGE infused vodka (throw a bunch of sage in absolut, no need to make it grey goose or anything).
Then muddle bing/rainier cherries in fresh lime juice and a bit of more sage, and add the sage vodka.
You WILL thank me.
lol. i just clicked "watch this thread" so I can remember to play w/ this recipe later.
I'll try to scrounge up an herb lemonade i had at a food show this year. I don't know if was just the pg talking but it was f*ing fantastic.
Oh, and it's not my favorite to leave booze in the car, but I think vodka would be decently stable. If you've got any bags or fabric shopping bags in the car, perhaps you could bring them in those. Diaper bag? does vodka fit in a diaper bag? this seems like an important question.

Our Photography Courses Blog - Culzean Castle, Scotland
First few pictures from Culzean CastlePosted in Culzean Castle, Scotland on October 12th, 2010 by Phil – Comments Off
Joanne came to Culzean Castle as an absolute beginner – with her new camera keen just to get a blurry background. These are some of the pictures she took – the first one being taken after about 90 minutes of instruction!
Joanne, wisely, has a Nikon D70 camera – one of our favourites (in fact, we have just bought one for the princely sum of £90). It just goes to show it's not about the camera, it's about the photographer.
Well done Joanne!!

Eat here: Green Gables Café
Green Gables Café in Coral Gables serves mostly takeout to devoted, like-minded customers who even bring back the cardboard cup holders to be used again. This is a natural-food place with a gourmet touch where the planet is treated with care and respect. All paper products are 100 percent recyclable and containers are biodegradable.
All the fruits and vegetables are organic, bought in bulk from Global Organics in Sarasota. Owner Ana Rabel hopes to go organic eventually with her signature roasted and pulled turkey breast (served with avocado and cilantro aioli on toasted whole wheat bread) and baked chicken with roasted pepper (served on a baguette with shaved Parmesan and pesto).
At first, cooking was a hobby for Rabel. After her first child was born, she began making organic baby food and paying attention to nutrition. Friends encouraged her to open her first restaurant, Yerba Buena. She sold it in 2001 and managed the Neiman Marcus restaurants in Bal Harbor and Coral Gables for several years until a family friend bought the building she now occupies and offered her the space. When she opened the café in September, her daughter Laura Alfonso left a job at the Daily Bread Food Bank to work with her. Their philosophy: "Save the world one bite at a time."
Do your part by biting into a flaky baked crab and panko cake served on a heap of salad greens drizzled with ginger dressing. On a hot day, cooling gazpacho enriched with ground almonds is refreshing. The Cobb salad has "bacon" made from roasted eggplant (nothing is fried here). The same eggplant shows up in a spinach wrap with hummus, roasted onions and sprouts. (Sandwiches come with blue corn chips or carrot sticks.) Chicken curry salad studded with golden raisins is stuffed in a pita, while lean roast beef is slathered with Dijon mustard on a baguette with arugula and mozzarella. There are also melts on flat bread, daily soups, a juice and smoothie bar and a selection of teas and coffees.
The coco-cacao macaroon, made from grated coconut and raw chocolate, makes a sweet ending.
Green Gables Café, 166 Alhambra Circle, Coral Gables; 305-445-7015; 8 a.m.-3 p.m. Mon-Fri; breakfast $1.50-$6.50, salads $7.25-$8.25, sandwiches $7.50-$8, dessert $1.50-$3.50

New Zealand golfer Greg Turner will make his debut in a senior professional event on Friday morning (NZT) when he tees it up at the 74th Senior PGA Championship in St Louis, Missouri.
The 50-year-old Otago professional, who retired from competitive golf in 2004 when he was ranked inside the top 200 players in the world, has been preparing to compete in the senior ranks since dusting off his clubs to play in the Harewood Open on The Charles Tour last October.
Turner will play in his first senior major championship at the renowned Bellerive Country Club, which is hosting the Senior PGA Championship for the first time. It is his first major championship since he missed the cut at the 2001 Open Championship.
He will tee off the first hole alongside American Lee Rinker and Japanese senior pro Kiyoshi Murota at 7:45am (local time) as the only Kiwi in the field.
Turner will once again rub shoulders with many household names in world golf.
Two-time Senior PGA Champion Tom Watson and two-time PGA Champion Nick Price, who won the 1992 PGA Championship played at Bellerive, are in the field alongside two-time US Open winner Andy North.
In his comeback Turner has shown that he has lost none of his cunning or shot-making ability.
He finished in a share of 25th place at the Harewood Open on the Charles Tour and was in contention at the halfway stage of the New Zealand Open at Clearwater last year before fading in the final rounds with 79 and 75 to finish tied 62nd.
Turner will take a lot of confidence from his most recent result of note. He finished in a share of 14th place at the New Zealand PGA Pro-Am Championship at The Hills in March.
The 1984 NZ PGA Champion shot rounds of 71, 68, 67 and 71 for an 11-under par four-round total to be only eight shots back from the winner Michael Hendry.
He will look to become the first Kiwi to win the Senior PGA Championship and a senior major championship title.
Sir Bob Charles won 23 times on the Senior PGA Tour, or The Champions Tour as it is now known, but never claimed a senior major championship.
At his peak in the 1980s and 90s Turner won four times on the European Tour and five times on the PGA Tour of Australasia.
His best result in a major was a tie for seventh at The Open Championship in 1996 at Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club where Charles famously claimed the Claret Jug in 1963.

Nacho Guzmán for Opale's "Sparkles and Wine"April 18, 2013
Remember when we just had movie previews at the theater and music videos on MTV? Now we got Daft Punk buying ad space on SNL to tease the costumes they are going to wear in support of their new album, and album teasers that are more creative than half the music industry. Nacho Guzman has created this fantastic teaser for French band Opale, and their new LP, Sparkles and Wine. The effect of the lighting shows you how much a face can change with shadows, color, and some good ol' LED lights.

(LONDON) — A study shows that drinking alcohol lightly during pregnancy may not have a negative effect on children.
The study, which was published in the British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, evaluated over 10,000 children whose mothers were either non-drinkers or light drinkers – fewer than one to two drinks per week – during pregnancy. Researchers tracked the children's development from nine months to 7 years of age.
According to the study, light drinking during pregnancy did not have a significant impact on the children's cognitive or behavioral growth. The research did not differentiate between types of alcohol, or determine whether drinking during a particular portion of the pregnancy were more or less dangerous.
Researchers did point out that because women may handle alcohol differently, avoiding alcohol entirely is more safe.

Republican Tom Emmer and Democrat Mark Dayton staked out their positions on the upcoming recount.
During a twenty minute news conference, Emmer said he wants to let the process take its course but declined to say what role he would personally have in that process. He wouldn't say whether he'll file a legal challenge in court or if he was fully in charge of the recount. MNGOP officials are heading up many parts of the effort.
You can watch some video of Emmer's newser here.
Democrat Mark Dayton met privately with Gov. Pawlenty. He discussed the recount, his possible transition and the possibility of a lengthy court battle. You can watch video of Dayton's newser.
Meanwhile, Emmer and the MNGOP announced that they hired former MN Supreme Court Chief Justice Eric Magnuson as their chief litigator.
AP reports that Dayton filed a recount committee. He told reporters all of the funds will be disclosed. Emmer told reporters that he'll follow the law which means he doesn't have to disclose anything.
The Star Tribune writes about how Emmer and Dayton are organizing to win the recount.

Passing (and Failing) at West Point
A favorite expression among West Point instructors is that much of the history we teach was made by people we taught. Notable names such as Grant and Lee, Pershing and MacArthur, Eisenhower and Patton, Westmoreland and Schwarzkopf are among the more than 50,000 graduates of the United States Military Academy. Then there are some who left the academy without graduating and became known in fields other than the military.
Notable Graduates
and Class Rankings
Robert E. Lee, 1829: Second out of 46
Ulysses S. Grant, 1843: 21st out of 39
George E. Pickett, 1846: 59th out of 59
George B. McClellan, 1846: Second out of 59
George Armstrong Custer, 1861: 35th out of 35
John J. Pershing, 1886: 30th out of 77
Douglas MacArthur, 1903: First out of 93
George S. Patton, 1909: 46th out of 103
Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1915: 61st out of 168
William C. Westmoreland, 1936: 112th out of 276
Alexander Haig, 1947: 167th out of 363
H. Norman Schwarzkopf, 1956: 43d out of 480
Wesley Clark, 1966: First out of 579
David H. Petraeus, 1974: 40th out of 833
Famous Former
Poet and author Edgar Allan Poe deliberately caused his expulsion in 1831 for gross neglect of duty and disobedience of orders. As an enlisted man, Poe served for two years at forts in Boston and Charleston, South Carolina, before attending West Point.
Artist James McNeill Whistler was judged deficient in chemistry and dismissed in 1854. He later said, If silicon were a gas, I would have been a general one day. Whistlers father was an 1819 West Point graduate.
Narcotics researcher and experimenter Timothy Leary left the academy in 1941, perhaps foreshadowing his 1960s advice to turn on, tune in, and drop out.

It's too bad, I'm too good....
Its a game of homor that all players who compete accept.
Are there amateurs who cheat? Once in a while. I know a couple. But they are usually exposed and as I said, no one wants to play with them.
I'm not expecting you to like it. I'm just telling you the way it is. Having "golf referees" would ruin a great game.

Al Simmons (Children's)
A native of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Simmons started his career as an entertainer very early, staging neighborhood parades, circuses, and magic shows. Later, Al teamed up with fellow Canadian Fred Penner on a concert tour of Canada. The successful series lasted three years, until 1976. Penner continued the friendship into the following decades, often asking Simmons to guest star on his syndicated children's television program, Fred Penner's Place.
In the '80s, Simmons was also featured on Sesame Street, and even starred in a Canadian National Film Board movie about his "horse-cycle," Ol' Spoke. Simmons also became an Official Representative of Canada, touring Expos in Tokyo, Vancouver, and Brisbane.
Simmon's first solo effort for kids, Something's Fishy at Camp Wiganishie, was filled with eclectic, humorous songs about Lego underwear and collecting feathers. Simmons didn't write one of the most memorable of the songs on the Oak Street album; "I Want a Pancake" was a rousing rendition of an old favorite. Although the album had limited distribution outside of Canada, many of its songs were featured on children's radio and compilation albums.
In 1996, Simmons created an ode to vaudeville, Celery Stalks at Midnight. The album featured classic songs such as "Sam, You Made the Pants Too Long" and the title cut, a tune from the Depression era that concludes with "All eyes are on the potato, and the beat goes on." Typical of Simmons' fearless style, the album also included what may be the longest pop song ever recorded for kids: an eight-minute song about the life cycle of the mosquito. But Simmons' instincts paid off: the album won the coveted Juno Award in 1996.
Simmons returned to a more folk-oriented sound in 1998 with The Truck I Bought From Moe. As in his earlier releases, Simmons featured unusual songs worth re-recording, such as the Copp/Brown classic "The Dog Who Went to Yale" and "Gypsy Sock," a tango about a sock with wanderlust ("I want to run with the wild hose, where pens and pencils and the car keys go"). With Simmons at the helm, even incorrigible socks and erudite dogs seemed to work together. ~ P.J. Swift

Fans put their Super Bowl picks on the line
It may not be the Ducks vs. Beavers, but there's still plenty of interest in Super Bowl XLVI.
Since you're reading the sports section, you probably know that a week from Sunday a couple football teams will meet in Indianapolis. It may not be the Ducks vs. Beavers, but there's still plenty of interest in Super Bowl XLVI. So we recruited five local NFL fans (two coaches and three armchair quarterbacks) to make their predictions. Next week, we'll report on who came closest to picking the score.
Jeffrey Kirk Johnson
Music instructor,
Gaston School District
Patriots: 24 - 17
and #9632; Childhood loyalty: Pittsburgh Steelers 'because my brother and father rooted for them on TV.'
and #9632; This year rooted for: The Indianapolis Colts; 'I have followed Peyton Manning since his days as a Tennessee Volunteer.'
and #9632; On Super Bowl Sunday he'll be at home with good friends; wife, Jennifer; and 11-month-old daughter, Jillian.
and #9632; Why the Pats will win: Tom Brady is most likely fuming after his last debacle on the field. He also remembers the 2008 loss, and won't disappoint his team this time. Coach Bill Belichick is a preparation machine.
Monica Christopherson
Athletic secretary,
Forest Grove High School
Giants: 31 - 27
and #9632; Childhood loyalty: Childhood loyalty: San Francisco 49ers. 'I was a big Joe Montana fan.'
and #9632; This year rooted for: The Chicago Bears. 'I joined my husband in rooting for the Bears since the days of Walter Payton. I enjoy watching Brian Urlacher play and the whole Bears organization in general.'
and #9632; On Super Bowl Sunday she'll be at her son Chad's house in Forest Grove (he's a Giants fan) with lots of family, friends and good food.
and #9632; Why the Giants will win: 'Although Tom Brady is an outstanding quarterback, I think Eli Manning is playing really great right now and the combined play of Manning and Cruz will put the Vince Lombardi trophy in their hands.'
Jeannine Murrell
Farmers Insurance,
Giants: 24 - 21
and #9632; Childhood loyalty: 'My Dad was a 49ers fan and I've been a 49ers fan since the 4th grade when I would bet lunch money on the games with schoolmates.'
and #9632; This year rooted for: '49ers. I've waited a decade for the ole magic of the team to shine through. I'm thinking right now we have that with Coach Harbaugh. Alex Smith has some of the skills that we have been missing since the days of Joe Montana and Steve Young.'
and #9632; On Super Bowl Sunday 'I'll be at the Keller watching 'Madame Butterfly.' I would have exchanged my opera tickets if the 49ers had made it. Now, I'll DVR the game.'
and #9632; Why the Giants will win: 'I can't stand Eli Manning, so it's hard to pick the Giants, yet since this is a New England Bowl game the Giants look stronger to win. They are pretty even in ability, but I give the edge to Manning.'
Ben Buchanan
Football coach,
Banks High School
Giants: 27 - 24
and #9632; Childhood loyalty: 'Although I didn't have fanatical ties to any NFL team, I was partial to the Rams because of their cool uniforms.'
and #9632; This year rooted for: 'I always root for the Seahawks since they are local but also for the Lions since they have been down for so long and they have Ndamukong Suh.'
and #9632; On Super Bowl Sunday
'I'll be either at my house or my brothers'.'
and #9632; Why the Giants will win: 'The defensive line is going to put a lot of pressure on Brady, who isn't extremely mobile. Their pass rush will force several uncharacteristic mistakes by Brady that Manning and his big play receivers will capitalize on. If the Giants can run the ball effectively, they will be able to use play-action really well.'
Keith Buckley
Head football coach,
Pacific University
Patriots 30 - 27
and #9632; Childhood loyalty:
The 49ers. 'I grew up in the Bay Area during the Bill Walsh/ Joe Montana era.'
and #9632; This year rooted for: The Boxers. 'It's the only football team I think about.'
and #9632; On Super Bowl Sunday he'll be with friends and family ('and some great tailgate-type food!')
and #9632; Why the Pats will win: 'My wife Kara is childhood friends with Tom Brady's sister, so I can't root for anyone else. Also, it's very hard to beat someone twice in a season, Brady is very motivated and Coach Bill Belichick is a gameplanning mastermind.'

The rough start to McNeese State's basketball season is not poised to get any easier tonight.
Both the Cowboys and Cowgirls have had all of one day to recover from losing their conference openers at Northwestern State before facing comparably stern tests today at Stephen F. Austin.
The Cowgirls (5-7, 0-1 Southland) tip off at 4 p.m. with the Ladyjacks (5-7, 0-1) in a rematch of last year's conference championship game, which McNeese won.
That game will be followed by the Cowboys (6-5, 0-1) and Lumberjacks (11-1, 2-0). Cowboys head coach Dave Simmons has never beaten SFA at Johnson Coliseum.
That gorilla isn't going to be any easier for Simmons to shed from his back today.
"We've never really shot the ball very well here," Simmons said. "That's been the biggest difference."
SFA coach Danny Kaspar is on the cusp of his 450th career win. The 'Jacks won at Oklahoma last month, and their lone loss was at Texas A&M.
SFA enters the game on the heels of a 79-43 drubbing of Lamar in which it forced 29 turnovers. It also posted a conference victory over Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.
The Lumberjacks enter the game with the nation's best scoring defense, allowing an average of 49 points per game with their slow-down pace.
"When Danny's at home, when you get to play at his pace; he gets ahead and they don't make a lot of mistakes," Simmons said. "They don't beat themselves. We've got to beat them."
The Cowboys are trying to bounce back from a lackluster 78-63 loss at Northwestern State in their conference opener.
"We got a chance to look at the tape. It confirmed that we looked like a team that's been off," Simmons said. "That was the biggest thing. A lot of things are correctable."
On the women's side of the doubleheader, both of last year's title contestants are trying to avoid falling to an 0-2 start in conference.
"It'll be a great battle. Stephen F. has a lot of kids back from that last game and we don't," said Cowgirls coach Brooks Donald Williams. "The young kids that weren't a part of that game, they don't understand yet the effort we're going to get from our opponents. That is something we tried to address (after Thursday's loss at Northwestern State). We're going to get everybody's best game.
"We all know the last time we saw each other was in an extremely important moment. They will have urgency, as should we."

So Jordan wakes up in a bright and cheery mood. She woke up an hour later than usual and I thought that was a little strange… So I took the boy to school by himself while Randy stayed at home. So when I come in, I hug Jordan and take her to the bathroom. Along the way, she told me "my face is broke." I didn't think that made any sense and gave her a big smooch.
A little later I brushed her hair out of her face to find: A BLACK EYE! Oh man. It's nasty. That strangest part? I'd ask Jordan what happened and she'd respond: "I not know."
Tonight she told me she was bouncing on her bed when it happened. My theory is she hurt her face while she was bouncing on her bed and slammed her face into the crib. It's more reason to snag one of our anchor's daughter's white twin poster bed!! Fewer slots for Jordan to faceplant!

TORONTO: After 47 years of living in Canada, feminist Ceta Ramkhalawansingh wants Canadian anthem be more "inclusive"
Toronto city councillor pushes for "O Canada" change
Ceta Ramkhalawansingh wants city council to ask Ottawa to make the national anthem more gender-inclusive.
By: Zoe McKnight Staff Reporter, Published on Thu Aug 21 2014
In one of her only acts as a politician, interim city councillor Ceta Ramkhalawansingh wants to make history.
At Monday's council meeting, Ramkhalawansingh will introduce a motion to request the federal government change the English words of Canada's national anthem to be more gender inclusive.
If successful, singers of "O Canada" will eventually proclaim "true patriot love in all of us command" instead of "true patriot love in all thy sons command."
"It's about inclusion, and you're really changing two words," Ramkhalawansingh said.
Changing the national anthem requires an act of Parliament, not city council. But Ramkhalawansingh wants to push her colleagues in that direction.
"It's my last city council meeting and I'm a feminist," she said. "If you go back and look at the city's history you will see the City of Toronto has provided leadership on many gender equality issues."
The recommended word changes are based on the national "Sing all of us" campaign, founded by former prime minister Kim Campbell, author Margaret Atwood, Senator Nancy Ruth, former University of Toronto chancellor Vivienne Poy and educator Sally Goddard.
"It will be very interesting to see who supports and who may not support it," Ramkhalawansingh said. "I can predict there will be a couple who won't."
Before joining city council, Ramkhalawansingh was a municipal civil servant for three decades and retired in 2010 as manager of diversity management and community engagement for the city.
Country of Origin:
Trinidad and Tobago
My name is Ceta Ramkhalawansingh, and I moved to Toronto in August 1967. I came with my family, which included my mother, my father, my brother and a sister. The five of us moved here in part because our parents wanted us to attend university in Canada. We moved from Trinidad and Tobago, and although there are very good schools there, I think that they thought that travel and living overseas would be a very good thing for us to do.
When I moved to Toronto in 1967, I attended one year of high school and then entered the University of Toronto, where I became very involved in a range of student activities, in addition to going to school, of course. I became very involved in student government, as well as various course union programs. At that point in time in 1968 onwards, there was a move afoot to change the curriculum of the University of Toronto towards a more integrated, interdepartmental approach to curriculum, rather than very rigid programs of study. I became very involved in advocating and working towards establishing a feminist studies program.

There was a time when this Southern condiment/side dish was made with canned fruit. Cookbook author Nathalie Dupree and her assistant, Margaret Ann Surber, updated an old recipe by using dried fruit.
The recipe doubles easily; use a Dutch oven (without the lid) instead of 2 skillets or saute pans.
Make Ahead: The fruit needs to macerate overnight, with an occasional stir. The curried dried fruit can be prepared, covered and refrigerated up to 2 weeks in advance.
Servings: 12
- 2 pounds mixed dried fruit, such as apricots, apples, cherries, cranberries, figs, peaches and raisins (coarsely chopped, if desired)
- 1/2 cup dry sherry or Madeira (may substitute chicken broth for a nonalcoholic version)
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) salted butter
- 1/2 cup light or dark light brown sugar (packed)
- 4 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth (may substitute vegetable broth; in that case, add an extra dash of dry sherry or Madeira)
Combine the fruit and sherry or Madeira in a large bowl; cover and let sit overnight (to macerate). Most of the liquid should be absorbed.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet or saute pan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, curry powder and cumin; cook for a few minutes, stirring to combine. Add the macerated fruit and toss to coat evenly, then add the broth and mix well. Transfer to the oven and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring the mixture every 15 minutes or so to prevent burning. The fruit should be evenly coated and glazed.
Serve warm, cold or at room temperature.

Gaming Gift Guide 2013: What are the Best Gifts for a Retro Gamer?
If the gamer in your life likes things retro-style, check out this list of oldschool cool merchandise.
'Tis indeed the season for festive goodness and wanton purchases. With Black Friday and Cyber Monday barely behind us, the question needs to be posed: if you failed to do your Christmas shopping last week, what now? Never fear. Now that we've exhausted the cheaper options, it's time to delve into the eclectic, the eccentric and the all-out weird. We're creating a series of outlandish, original and just plain crazy gift ideas suitable for, well, pretty much anyone. As long as they enjoy good things. We can't help you if your friends have bad taste. This article is all about:
Gifts for the Retro Gamer
Kokiri's Emerald
Help someone re-live the glory days of the Nintendo 64 by sending them this excellent interpretation of Kokiri's Emerald from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Though far from the most elegant piece of video game-inspired jewelry you'll be able to find on etsy, dweebishdelights' Kokiri's Emerald is charming, cheaply available and easily paired up with these equally delectable earrings.
A380 Pocket Emulator
Pffft. Developers these days. They think they know what gaming is, what with their crazy save points and their intricate plots. In my day, we had nothin' like that. You were lucky if you could walk for ten minutes without having to start from the beginning. The A380 Pocket Emulator is everything that is good about the contemporary generation brought together for one noble cause: to provide its users access to every classic console game ever. The retro handheld is fully configurable and will work with any of the ROMs you find online. (We don't officially condone the usage of such software, of course.) It even doubles as an eBook Readers and an audio recorder.
The Hyperkin Retron 5
The Hyperkin Retron 5 was supposed to be available December 10th but complications arose. On the bright side, this may mean you now have the perfect excuse for present-related tardiness. Want something great? You're gonna have to wait. And the Hyperkin Retron 5 is honestly quite spectacular. It's nine vintage consoles rolled into one, a hardware emulator that comes packaged with a custom Bluetooth controller purportedly capable of working with any system. It's supposed to be less than $100 and, unless something else comes up again, will be available next year. Woo.
NES Controller Print Set
You'd probably have to work real hard if you want to turn these into something truly revolutionary but why go out of your way to design toddler-sized origami masterpieces when you can use these as the final accents in your Nintendo tribute chamber? There's not much to be said here. They're prints. For the wall. For your nerd cave/game room/(wo)man bunker. How much more awesome did you need them to be?

Last night, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra rocked St. Paul's Xcel Energy Center. As part of their annual holiday tour, TSO once again succeeded in entertaining a jam-packed house for two shows on Sunday. Both shows featured an array of musical talent (under the direction of world class guitarist and music director Al Pitrelli) that kept concert goers entertained from beginning to end.
Trans-Siberian Orchestra began their nearly three-hour performance with their annual Christmas act featuring creative renditions of classic holiday songs with a rock flare. Taking the lead from deep-voiced narrator Phillip Brandon, TSO told their classical Christmas story utilizing state-of-the-art lights and stage set. At first glance, TSO's stage prior to the show looked like the set of the next Transformers movie. The group used a state-of-the-art rigging system that essentially put lights all over the stage and performers out on platforms floating above the audience on the main floor. By the time the show ended, I had to check to see if I still had eyebrows due to the extreme amount of pyrotechnics used during the show.
The performers are truly what make this performance a staple in many Minnesotans' Christmas schedules each year. In my opinion, vocalist Chloe Lowery stole the show with her gorgeous voice and upbeat on stage presence. Keyboard masters Jane Mangini and Vitalij Kuprij put on a mind-bending solo performance, which was one of the most enjoyable portions of the show. The Shout House was not the only place to find dueling pianos in the Twin Cities last night 🙂
If you have a chance to see them next year at the Xcel Energy Center or another city, do not pass on the opportunity!

Nicalis, who published La Mulana on WiiWare in Japan, has decided to suddenly cancel its North American and European release, citing declining sales on WiiWare and developmental issues as the cause. Nicalis's Tyrone Rodriguez told GoNintendo: "With the Wii U in the not too distant future and WiiWare sales almost non-existent, I had to make a call today. I wish them the best. They're good game developers and good guys." Click the link for the full statement, which points to the DLC as the main reason why La Mulana was having trouble passing certification in North America and Europe (it's apparently more strict than in Japan). You may also want to check the Twitter accounts of NIGORO and Nicalis for more details.
Thankfully, it's not all bad news: according to NIGORO, a PC release of the new La Mulana is almost finished and will be self-published. Distribution has yet to be determined.

Ocean Wonders: Sharks!, a new 57,000-square-foot building that will house more than 115 species of marine wildlife, is set to open at the New York Aquarium in Coney Island in 2016. The project was delayed due to Hurricane Sandy.
Rendering of Ocean Wonders: Sharks! at the WCS New York Aquarium, scheduled to open in 2016
On Jan. 10, the Wildlife Conservation Society's New York Aquarium in Coney Island celebrated the groundbreaking of Ocean Wonders: Sharks!, a 57,000-square-foot building that will house more than 115 species of marine wildlife, including sharks, skates, and rays. This historic event marks the beginning of the rebuilding and transformation of the New York Aquarium, post Hurricane Sandy. Ocean Wonders: Sharks! will be a destination for education and conservation programming. Education is a vital part of the exhibit, which will include a new state-of-the-art Oceanview Learning Laboratory where the 220,000 school children who visit the aquarium annually will learn about aquatic wildlife and their habitats.
In addition, the New York Aquarium has teamed up with the WCS Global Marine Program to ensure that the transformed aquarium includes additional educational exhibits about the New York seascape and to ensure a robust local conservation program from Cape May to Montauk.
Elected officials and community leaders who attended the event included: Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams; City Council Member Mark Treyger; Former City Council Member Domenic M. Recchia, Jr.; Council Member Vincent Gentile; Executive Vice President, Economic Development Cop. Tom McKnight; First Deputy Commissioner, NYC Parks & Recreation Liam Kavanagh; Director of the Natural Resources Defense Council's Ocean Initiative Sarah Chasis; Director of Operations for the Alliance for Coney Island Johanna Zaki; and Principal of the Rachel Carson High School for Coastal Studies Ed Wilensky.
The Ocean Wonders: Sharks! project was delayed due to Hurricane Sandy. It is scheduled to be completed in 2016. New York City has committed $111 million to the $157.1 million capital project.
"The New York Aquarium's spectacular new Ocean Wonders: Sharks! exhibit will lure visitors to Coney Island from far and wide, and immerse them in all the wonders of the watery deep," said Mayor Bill de Blasio. "It's the result of years of hard work and creative planning by the Wildlife Conservation Society and its partners in City government. And today's groundbreaking is another huge step forward in the Aquarium's – and Coney Island's – continued recovery from Hurricane Sandy."
Cristián Samper, WCS President and CEO, said: "We are thankful to our trustees, the City of New York, and all of our supporters for making the transformation of the New York Aquarium possible and for standing by us in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. Ocean Wonders: Sharks! will provide a magnificent, state-of-the-art home for 25 species of sharks and rays while educating people about wildlife found in New York waters. The exhibits will raise awareness about the threats facing marine species and habitats and educate people about the need for marine conservation in New York and around the world."
The new exhibit will feature sharks, rays, sea turtles, thousands of schooling fish, and more. Showcasing WCS marine conservation work, the exhibit will hold more than 500,000 gallons of water in fully immersive and interactive exhibits. It will forge connections between people and wildlife while highlighting the need for conservation of delicate marine ecosystems.
The building's façade on the oceanside will include a 1,100-foot long shimmer wall constructed of 33,000 individual 4-inch by 5½ -inch aluminum panels that will wrap the exterior. The transformation will turn a visit to the aquarium into seamless experience with the famous Coney Island Boardwalk and the nearby Atlantic Ocean.
Ocean Wonders: Sharks! is part of a larger initiative announced in 2009 to help revitalize the aquarium, Coney Island, and its economy. Other elements of this initiative include the building of a holding and quarantine area for the aquarium's sharks, sea turtles, and other marine wildlife, and the renovation of Conservation Hall and Glover's Reef, which opened in 2011.

This section describes how most Christian denominations can be sorted into 15 families, according to their historical roots. We have largely patterned the following list of Christian families of denominations after the work of J Gordon Melton, the editor of the Encyclopedia of American Religions. 1 It is one of many possible ways of sorting individual denominations.
One of many possible lists of families of Christian denominations
To which might be added a number of additional faith groups and secular systems, some of which have only a loose connection to Christianity -- if at all.
How the Christian "families" evolved:
With the exception of the first few years after the execution of their founder Yeshua of Nazareth (a.k.a. Jesus Christ), Christianity was never a unified religion.
Size of religious groups in the U.S.
Polling data from early 2001 indicate that:
The percentage of Americans who are Protestants are expected to dip below 50% at sometime before the end of 2006.
Size of religious groups in Canada:
The 2001 census by Statistics Canada found that:
Although the percentage of adults who consider themselves Christian are almost the same in Canada and the U.S., the two countries differ in two significant ways:
In general, the more conservative churches are rapidly growing in membership; the main line and liberal churches are in a gradual decline. The Unitarian-Universalist Association is an exception. It is a very liberal religious organization which is often considered to be part of Christendom by statisticians and pollsters, but not regarded as Christian by most of its members. It is growing.
Christianity throughout the world
According to the 1992 Encyclopaedia Britannica Book of the Year, Christianity is the most widespread religion in the world. They have established "significant" communities 254 countries and territories. This leads the Baha'i faith at 205 locations and Islam at 172.
The percentage of the world's population that regards themselves as Christians appears to be remarkably constant. It has risen only from 33.7% in 1970 to 33.9% in 1996. Its current annual growth rate is about 2.3% which is approximately equal to the growth rate of the world's population. 3
Within Christianity, not all denominations had the same growth rate:
By 2003, a smaller percentage of the world's population identified themselves as Christians, The 2003 New York Times Almanac reported that Christianity had almost two billion adherents in 260 countries. 7 They reported the total world's population at 6.2 billion. 8 This implies a drop in the percentage of Christians among the world's population to almost 32%.

Rockaway Beach Volleyball Thunder and Lightning
I just want you to know that I started to write this article from the dashboard of my car, but I did make it to Connelly's. Wonder Why?
Some say that tonight was Les Miserables, while others say it was like bumping a Bowling Ball. You decide. But what a combination, soup and frozen drinks at Connolly's in June. It was no different than what we had at Riis tonight. Thank God the soup at Connolly's was Hot Chili. It warmed everyone down to the soul. In the most extreme conditions the league has ever played in, memories were created to last a lifetime. Or at least until next weeks rain.
The match of the night was ironically for last place in the Ocean Division. Kerry Hills Eiele was not happy about being dissed and swept in their initial appearance in the top division in week one. After getting swept last week, they won the first game against Bikini Bottom All Stars in a close first game. The All Stars took the next two games and were confident after going ahead 11-3 in game four. After Katie and Kenny put their heads together, the Hills stormed back taking game four in triple overtime. The Hills finished their first winning week by taking game five, also in OT. The sunny side to this rainy day for the All Stars is that in their losing effort, Mike and Eva played the best games of their young careers.
If anyone questions why Coppersmiths and Marie's Traitors are the best in the league the answer could be seen in the pouring rain when everyone was heading home to a hot shower, they played a pick up game. Coppersmith's beat Abbracciamento's 4-1. Maybe the weather had something to do with it, or maybe it was Rocky's "condition" that kept him out of the last 4 games. Condition? Now we have you thinking!
Marie's Traitors feel they need to respond to last week's article. Coppersmith's may be having more fun without the evil one, but the Traitors have one thing to say to Mark Gentile after a crushing victory over Kevin O'Malley and Bobby Whelan's "Super-Squad" or otherwise know as Healy's (we need a Time Out) Tavern. Why is the evil one (and the rest of her benedict Arnolds) #1? Two questions to be answered next week …. Can anyone tell us what 5+5+5 equals and where does the new Superstar "Mike Dallas Casey" come from? Dallas?!?
Where is Kenny? That is what Steve + Party Boy would like to know. The Bishop (aka Party Boy) was in awe as he saw the "ray of light" as he was planting the poles in the sand getting the net ready for play. If you want to know who won the Wet T Shirt contest, check the website for the pictures. Overall they won 2, but the rules stated you have to win by two not 21 (so Steve says). Steve said that the Cookie run begins tomorrow evening at 7pm and the VB games will be played (no matter what, even if we see snow) on Wednesdays from here on in.
Connolly's Island wants to know where is the rest of their team? Doesn't matter, those that showed up to play this evenings game won 4-1 over the Tap + Grill. Even though due to the wet weather and the fact that her pants kept falling off, Cpt. Denise took what she had and gave it her all.
And now a word from The Ramblers and The Gamblers. Kudos to everyone who showed and played due to the weather. Bonnie said the rest of the players were building the Ark to help the team get through the rest of the season (and the weather). They did manage to get 3 games in, Its All Good they one the two. As Bonnie was getting her Game On (aka Coors Light) all games got halted. Much to their surprise, the rest of the league continued on. Billy "Quack" Kaufman played like you wouldn't believe.
Jay Butler states the Rugby Club House defeated the Rugby Fisheads 5 games to 0, in the torrential, arctic downpour. Much to the dismay of local H.S. Cheerleaders, the Polar conditions prevented Fisheads Tyrone Sperling from going shirtless and or shortless. Rugby Clubhouse's Big John Biscaino was named Tank Top Man of the year for remaining in his Wife Beater T for the remainder of the night. Does he belong in Rockaway? Also, in an unprecedented move, furious about the Divisional demotion, Jay Butler requests that the Rugby Clubhouse step up a division on position night to play Abbracciamento's. Is this a challenge?
Irish Tunes held its own considering Wonder Women couldn't land the Invisible Plane due to weather conditions. They played their best, but lost to the Suns of Beaches 3-2. In last weeks action…..
By John Sica
Shock and Awe! John Brennan's Stelths had a score to settle for two years. Kerry Hills eliminated them in 2001 from the playoffs and they took a year off preparing to get them back. Although Kerry Hills has split into two this year, The Stelth's pounded the elder half of the ex-champs into submission. John Brennan Jr. and Pat Benn were in mid- season form already, and Stevie Wallace was exceptional. Laura Brennan, Michelle and Justina's sets showed why Patty made a mistake by putting the Stelth in the Beach Division.
The Rugby Fisheads would like to thank Regina for going to a stupid Bronx Girl Dinner and leaving Renee' and Ëllen to eat sand for five straight games. Luckily they stood up strong and were able to salvage two wins against the Federations. The Feds meanwhile are happy to be back where they belong, winning matches. The addition of Ryan Ford added some stability to the aging squad, once his teammates realized they should get out of his way and let his solid skills lead the way. Big Brian O'Hagan showed no signs of rust from his three year lay off.
Mark Gentile could finally smile. Two straight championships were not enough to get him to smile. Something was always missing. After going two and three against Healy's, Mark was reciting poetry, "Coppersmiths is finally having fun, because they got rid of the mean one, and kept the better sister."
Speaking of the Queen of Mean, Marie's Traitors easily handled the depleted Bikini Bottom All Stars, 5-0. Ex-BBAS players, Bernie and Rich were too much for their old team.
The Irish Circle provided a great spread of food as usual, under tough circumstances, with the delay and all.

There's a classic line from The Sopranos when Tony grows annoyed with his gangster pals for reminiscing about their bygone glory days. "'Remember When' is the lowest form of conversation," the Jersey mob boss informs his crew. You know who needs to take that advice? al-Qaida.
The latest issue of al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula's online English-language lifestyle magazine, Inspire, doesn't bother trying to, um, inspire any homegrown extremists to blow up bits of America. Its signature feature, the "AQ Chef" — who cooks up recipes for murder for you to emulate — is out of the kitchen. Which is odd, since that's the entire rationale for the magazine.
Instead, Inspire #7, the thinnest issue yet, is devoted to reminiscing about the halcyon days of 9/11. "Shaykh Usama might be dead but his deeds are not," recalls writer Yahya Ibrahim, who at least acknowledges that bin Laden is dead. "9/11 has left a permanent scar on the American psyche and will live long after in the hearts of every American." Blah, blah.
American-born extremist Samir Khan pens the issue's anchor essay, about how bad the U.S. is at messaging and propaganda. Which in this case is rather ironic: not only is Inspire #7 a good three weeks late for a 9/11 anniversary issue, but it's mostly padded with a photo gallery of familiar images. In other words, a celebration of "The Greatest Special Operation of All Time" is canned and padded. (And actually, jerks: this was a much better special op.)
If there's anything surprising in the issue, it's the magazine's front-of-the-book attack on the 9/11 Truthers — principally, Iran's Mahmoud Ahmedinejad. al-Qaida is pissed that Ahmadinejad would deny the terrorist group its due credit for the attack, all out of sour graps. "Al-Qaida, an organization under fire, with no state, succeeded in what Iran couldn't," writes Abu Suhail. "Therefore it was necessary for the Iranians to discredit 9/11 and what better way to do so? Conspiracy theories." Paging Rick Veitch.
That kind of counterintuitive inter-extremist feuding might make for a good #slatepitch, but it's far afield from al-Qaida's mission with Inspire. Once, Inspire was encouraging American Muslims to trick out Ford F-150s with blades in the grill and run people over, or to shoot up crowded D.C. lunch spots.
But starting in the January issue, the "AQ Chef" started phoning it in, publishing unlikely schemes to collapse a building with explosives. And the previous issue even bragged about failed attacks like the printer-cartridge bomb plot. No wonder a recent Rand Corporation report described homegrown extremists as the Bad News Bears of terrorism.
There's an unresolved plot at the end of The Sopranos where it seems like Tony's crew is getting into bed with possible terrorists. But if any real-life gangsters actually bothered to read Inspire, they wouldn't stop laughing at the weaksauce wannabes. And then they'd probably steal their cash.

Bill O'Brien's youngest son, Michael, will often tell people he learned to throw a football from Tom Brady.
It's hard for a 5-year-old not to fall in love with the game after having a catch with one of the greatest quarterbacks ever — who is coached by his father.
Now Michael is 8, and he's still enamored with football. He watches games on TV and researches statistics afterward. His father is the head coach at Penn State, so he frequently stops by practices. He brings a football and plays along the sidelines - sometimes with friends, sometimes with Penn State players, sometimes with his father.

The technique, described in the April Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, enables enzymes, with the help of a long, noodle-like polymer molecule, to self-assemble layer-by-layer on a single carbon nanotube.
Lin and co-author Guodong Liu, a postdoctoral fellow in Lin's group, coaxed electrostatic clinginess in a polymer and an oppositely charged protein-enzyme, in this case glucose oxidase, which reacts in the presence of blood sugar. The catalyzed products from the reaction ping the carbon nanotube; if the tube is connected to an electrode, the tube will carry a signal that corresponds precisely with the amount of glucose detected. The first polymer binds to the carbon nanotube. Enzymes are attracted to the polymer, leaving an outer layer for the next polymer of opposite charge to cling to, and so on.
An individual strand coated with one to six layers ranges from 30 nanometers to about 50 nanometers thick. "Each polymer layers is porous," Lin said. "This allows the glucose to diffuse in and come into contact with the enzymes."
"The polymers trap the enzymes in place," Liu said. "You can go up to five or six layers to improve the sensitivity of the detector, but after that, the more enzyme layers" inhibit diffusion of the glucose.
Now that the glucose enzyme biosensor has passed the test, Lin said, it should be possible to build a similar sensor using other enzymes that react specifically with other biological chemicals, environmental pollutants or even microbes and their toxic byproducts. Lin and colleagues also reported, in February issue of Analytical Chemistry, having used a similar technique to construct sensors for nerve agents.
The research was funded through PNNL's environmental biomarker initiative . PNNL is a DOE Office of Science laboratory that solves complex problems in energy, national security, the environment and life sciences by advancing the understanding of physics, chemistry, biology and computation. PNNL employs more than 4,200, has an annual budget of more than $725 million annual budget, and has been managed by Ohio-based Battelle since the lab's inception in 1965.

You can now unlock iPhone 4 baseband 04.10.01, or iPhone 3GS 05.16.02 baseband. Some websites are now offering permanent unlock for iPhone, that is independent of iOS versions. Negri Elelectronics brings a new method, remotely unlocking after receiving your iPhone's IMEI code, which is permanent and lasts through firmware updates and other software modifications.
You can get it from here:
* NegriElectronics ($174.50)*
* Cut Your SIM ($170)*
You have to send your device IMEI over to them to let them complete the permanent iPhone unlock. If you have preserved your baseband (with sn0wbreeze 2.5.1 or PwnageTool 4.3) to any of following, you can use ultrasn0w 1.2.1 to unlock iPhone on iOS 4.3.1:
* 01.59.00
* 04.26.08
* 05.11.07
* 05.12.01
* 05.13.04
* 06.15.00
Presumably Apple would not close this unlocking method in the future as it is the "official" way to remove a subsidy lock – if AT&T offered the carrier unlock, it would be delivered the same way.

Backed into a corner Consider the Reilly camp's handling of the AG's now-infamous call to Conte, which was first reported by the MetroWest Daily News on December 30 and became a bona fide Big Story five days later. To win the Democratic nomination over former Clinton-administration official Deval Patrick — and to win the general election, if he gets that far — Reilly needs to be able to control this kind of story. From the outset, though, the story seemed to be controlling the AG.
On January 4, Reilly struggled to explain the propriety of his actions on WGBH-TV's Greater Boston, an appearance that was widely panned as unconvincing. Then came a January 5 press conference, called by Reilly after Healey and her boss, Governor Mitt Romney, accused the AG of trying to "hush up" the investigation. Reilly appeared overwhelmed; his voice was barely audible, and at one point he seemed close to tears. The AG also found himself denying a cover-up, thereby playing right into the Republicans' hands. And the diminutive Reilly delivered his remarks while standing in front of a wall, with no podium to set him apart from the gaggle of journalists pressing toward him. He looked, literally, as if he'd been forced up against a wall.
Furthermore, Reilly and his handlers did more than their part to keep the story alive. During a January 8 TV interview, Healey accused Reilly of "managing to stifle and probably obstruct" a criminal investigation into whether the state's social-host law had been violated prior to the Murphy girls' deaths. Healey made these incendiary comments — which haven't been borne out by the facts of the case — to CBS-4 political analyst Jon Keller, whose Sunday-morning broadcasts have a small though loyal viewership. And they might have been broadly ignored, if Reilly hadn't shot back after a State House press conference on anti-gang legislation that he and Healey attended the following day. As a result, Healey's charges found their way into the Globe and the Herald one day later.
Perhaps Reilly made the right call there, since his retort prompted Healey to backpedal. But it's impossible to justify Reilly's dubious decision not to confirm his conversation with Davis until January 10, five days after his original press conference. Reilly and his advisers may have deemed this exchange irrelevant. But by refusing to acknowledge Davis's involvement for the better part of a week, Reilly only reinforced the notion that he had something to hide.
Truly an outsider? These missteps would have been bad enough for any candidate. But here's the problem: ever since Reilly began targeting the governor's office, he's been telling voters that he isn't just any candidate.
The challenge for Democrats running for governor in Massachusetts is simple: a hefty share of voters think poorly of the Democrat-dominated legislature, which they see as a tax-happy bastion of patronage and corruption. Send a Republican to the corner office, the argument goes, and they'll help keep the Democrats from running amok. Send a Democrat, meanwhile, and you're taking your civic life in your hands. That's what made Mitt Romney's "Gang of Three" gambit so brilliant back in 2002: by linking Democratic candidate Shannon O'Brien to soon-to-be Senate president Robert Travaglini and then–House Speaker Tom Finneran, Romney catered to and inflamed this fear.

France condemns teacher for educating students about the Holocaust
- By Andrew SwiftAndrew Swift is an editorial researcher at Foreign Policy.
A history teacher has been suspended in France for spending "too much" class time on teaching the Holocaust.
Here's a classic example of where France goes wrong. A July report condemned Catherine Pederzoli for "lacking distance, neutrality and secularism" and that by spending so much time on the Holocaust she was "brainwashing" her students.
For the past fifteen years, Pederzoli has organized annual trips for students to death camps in Poland and the Czech Republic. The number of students she was allowed to take had been cut in half, prompting her students to hold a protest when French Minister of Education Luc Chatel visited the school. Pederzoli was accused of inciting the protests.
Here's how ridiculous the report was:
The ministry's report cites that in meeting with investigators, the teacher used the word "Holocaust" 14 times while using the more neutral term "massacre" only twice.
Seriously? She's brainwashing her students because she used an internationally recognized term for the heinous crimes committed against Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, and other "undesirables" by Nazi Germany? It's hard to imagine a more preposterous condemnation.
France's republican tradition means that it doesn't officially recognize differences between demographic groups, and that secularism is the overriding state virtue. But that deliberate non-recognition –"I can't see you!" — itself leads directly to policies that are often used, intentionally or not, in an anti-Semitic or Islamophobic manner.

B-Mets Sweep Sens, Earn 70th Win of Season
B-Mets first to 70 wins
By Greg Murray / Binghamton Mets | August 4, 2013 1:26 PM ET
HARRISBURG, PA - The Binghamton Mets completed a three-game sweep over the Harrisburg Senators with a 6-0 victory on Sunday afternoon at NYSEG Stadium. The victory made 2013 B-Mets the fastest team in franchise history to reach the 70 win mark.
For the third consecutive game, Danny Muno got the offense started in the top of the first inning. He began the game with a hard line drive to right field. The ball was misread by Destin Hood, and it rolled all the way to wall for a leadoff triple. Two batters later, Josh Rodriguez hit a fly ball to right field deep enough for Muno to score on a sacrifice fly.
After the first, Harrisburg pitcher Rob Gilliam held the B-Mets scoreless for the next four innings. They threatened in the third inning by getting Alonzo Harris to third base, but he was left stranded there.
On the mound. Noah Syndergaard continued the tone set by the Binghamton pitching staff from the previous two nights. Billy Burns beat out an infield single in the third inning for the first hit against the righty, but he did not allow a runner to move into scoring position in his five innings of work. Syndergaard only gave up two hits, and struck out three to earn his fifth win of the season.
The B-Mets busted the game open with four runs in the sixth inning. Muno began the big inning with a solo home run into the Harrisburg bullpen in right field. It was his eighth home run of the season, and his first since July 6th. Travis d'Arnaud followed with a hard-hit single, and Rodriguez walked to put runners at first and second with nobody out. Rhyne Hughes was up next and brought home both runners by knocking a two-run triple into the right field corner. Two batters later, Travis Taijeron drove in Hughes with an RBI double off the top of the left field wall.
With a five-run cushion, Binghamton Armando Rodriguez took over for Syndergaard in the sixth. He did not allow a hit in three relief innings, and kept the shutout intact. The offense got one more insurance run in the top of the ninth inning. Xorge Carrillo provided a pinch hit single into right field which brought home the sixth run of the game. In the bottom half, Ryan Fraser worked around two walks, but tossed a scoreless ninth.
The win gave Binghamton their fifth series sweep of the season. Sunday was their last scheduled game against the Senators; Binghamton finished 7-3 against them in 2013.
The B-Mets (70-43) have an off day on Monday. They return home to take on the Altoona Curve on Tuesday to start a four-game series. Tuesday is a doubleheader at NYSEG Stadium, with the first pitch of game one at 5:05 PM. Both games are slated for seven innings. The Horizons Federal Credit Union Pregame Show is set to begin at 4:50 PM on Newsradio 1290 WNBF.
POSTGAME NOTES: Danny Muno has reached base in the first inning in eight consecutive games…Travis d'Arnaud is 4-for-18 in four games with Binghamton…Binghamton has thrown three two-hitters this season (July 26 vs. Trenton, April 27 vs. Akron)…Binghamton pitching only allowed two runs in the entire series

Stone grinding makes this butter extremely smooth - and thin. Compared to almond butter, the mouthfeel is much less chalky. The hazelnut taste is quite intense, borderline bitter, probably because of ground skins, but acceptable if you spread it thin.

Dastony Hazelnut Butter
Posted by Reviewer2678675 on Jan 25, 2014 | Verified Purchase
Love this stuff! My new addiction. Wish it came in larger jars. I've always loved the taste of hazelnuts, and it's been hard to find hazelnut butter. Always before I've gotten the roasted kind, but this is better. Be prepared for its thin consistency, which is fine with me, but wouldn't work if you're planning to spread it in a thick layer like you could with almond or peanut butter.
Runny consistency
Posted by 5530458417621484716 on Jul 29, 2015 | Verified Purchase
The flavour is pleasant and fresh, but the consistency is unusually runny for a nut butter. I wonder if they mixed water into it. It runs even when I scoop it out with a spoon; let me not even try with a butter knife cos I don't get anything if I do! And when I put it on my rice cakes, it flows all over and makes a mess. I'd had good experiences with iHerb products thus far. It's not easy finding a hazelnut butter without chocolate and the flavour is fine. So I'd buy this again if the consistency was right.
Very.. oily?

Very creamy and very, very "oily", not what I am used to, maybe it´s normal in the U.S.? But it´s good, not that much taste though, maybe it´s because of the consistency?

The igredient is great- just hazelnuts, but the product does not convey warm and wounderful taste and it has very thin, runny texture. Will not buy it again.

not very creamy but taste like the real thing (i.e. mashed up hazelnuts and not "creamy" unhealthy hydrogenated oils); it's best in smoothies or on biscuits. Probably great to bake with too, will try that next.
Best hazelnut butter!

I am a HUGE fan of the Dastony brand, as well as stone ground nut butters in general. They're much smoother with a more intense flavour and for me, far more versatile. I add this to chocolate avocado mousse and it's quite frankly, incredible. It would also go well in smoothies etc. Seriously in love with it.
It has a good taste

I like the taste of this and I like that the oil doesn't separate. You can make your own healty chocolate by adding cocoa and honey or stevia.
