WATSONVILLE -- For Jason Cordova, researching a community issue and making a mini-documentary about it started out as just another school assignment.
But as he looked into Watsonville's high unemployment rate and possible solutions last winter, Cordova began to understand the connections between education, job training, and the city's economic base in industry and agriculture.
The lesson Cordova, then a junior at Watsonville High School, took away though was somewhat larger than the facts he acquired.
"Originally, I didn't see a problem. It was normal, the way it is," the 18-year-old senior said. "I got to see what was wrong with my community, and how I can try to fix it."
That's a response sure to bring a smile to Bob Gliner, a retired San Jose State sociology professor and award-winning filmmaker with a goal of encouraging civic engagement. His latest documentary, "Schools That Change Communities," features the Watsonville High project. The documentary will premier Thursday, Jan. 3, on KQED Plus.
"Social change is not something other people do," Gliner said. "If we're going to have a democracy, we need people who understand issues and get involved in solving them."
Gliner, a Boulder Creek resident, has made more than 40 documentaries since 1984, covering a range of issues, from green energy to global economics. "Schools That Change Communities" is a follow-up to his 2007 documentary, "Democracy Left Behind," a critical look at the impact of standardized testing.
Gliner said he became concerned about the narrowing of curriculum as schools focused on prepping students for high-stakes tests. The programs highlighted in his new documentary "buck the trend," he said, and provide an alternate model of education.
The film opens with Maryland's Crellin Elementary School, where students studying the environment helped clean up a creek polluted by coal mining and continued to monitor the watershed as energy companies began hydraulic fracturing in the area. Along the way, the school, situated in an impoverished mountain town with a rough reputation, posted the highest test scores in the state and restored a sense of community pride.
Other segments look at schools in Boston, South Dakota and Oregon that use an educational strategy known as place-based learning to connect classrooms to the real world as a way of engaging and motivating students.
At Watsonville High, students are split among eight academies that link them to potential careers. At 22, the Video Academy is by far the oldest. As juniors, students, working in small groups, complete projects that incorporate their learning in English, social studies, science and video production.
Students are required to write papers about their projects, but it's putting their work on film that makes it real for them, said Christine Kopecky, an English teacher and a founding member of the Video Academy faculty.
"When you have people involved in a project and then show it to people, they buy into it," Kopecky said. "They remember forever these projects that we do."
Last year's juniors tackled pressing issues in their city: immigration, farm labor, unemployment, gangs and homelessness. Kopecky said when Gliner proposed filming their efforts, she was leery, thinking about what it would add to her workload. But she said she was amazed and grateful at how well it turned out.
"I saw how fired up our students were, how they rose to the occasion, the ownership they took of their projects," Kopecky said.
Having Gliner on campus added a dimension she hadn't imagined.
"For all of (the students) to watch in person a real documentary maker with that intensity and precision and passion and seriousness of intent at work, I don't think they'll ever get that great an example," Kopecky said.

Salmon with Yellow Pepper Cilantro Pesto
Hubby and I love all sorts of seafood. Well everything except squid sushi. Tried it once – gross! Anyways, we always just grab whatever seafood is on sale that week and either use it right away or freeze it for later. Our store has been having salmon on sale a lot recently. We usually just bake it or pan sear it with some spices, but tonight I wanted to dress it up a bit more.
I went to Penzey's this afternoon since there's a store in the Boston area and I hadn't been yet. I ended up with twice as many things as were on my list, but that's ok. It was a fun shopping trip! One of the things I grabbed was some smoked paprika. You have to try this. It smells amazing. I think it'll be great in the crockpot pulled pork that we already love. I decided the smoked paprika would be a great way to dress up our salmon and set out to find a recipe.
This recipe is amazing. It combines many of our favorite flavors. I LOVE cilantro, Hubby loves garlic, and we both love our new smoked paprika. Hubby and I agreed this was the best fish I had ever made. You need to try this.
Barbecued Mahi-Mahi with Yellow Pepper-Cilantro Pesto – from Bobby Flay via Ezra Pound Cake
Barbecue Rub
2 tablespoons Spanish paprika – I used smoked Paprika
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon chile de arbol powder – I used more chili powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Yellow Pepper-Cilantro Pesto
2 large yellow bell peppers, grilled, peeled, seeded and chopped – we don't have a grill, so I just cooked them for a few minutes on our griddle
1 clove garlic, chopped – I used 2
2 tablespoons pine nuts – I omitted since we didn't have any
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves – I used a whole bunch from the store, came out to about 1 1/3 cups
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan – I omitted to make it dairy free
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly grated pepper
Mahi-Mahi4 Mahi-mahi fillets, 8 ounces each – I used salmon fillet
4 teaspoons olive oil
"Barbecue" Rub
Cilantro leaves
Combine all the rub ingredients in a small bowl. Place peppers, garlic, pine nuts, cilantro and cheese in a food processor and process until combined. With the motor running, add the oil and process until emulsified and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Heat grill to high. Brush each fillet on both sides with oil. Rub 1 side of each fillet with 1 tablespoon of the barbecue rub and place on the grill rub side down and cook until slightly charred and a crust has formed, about 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the fish over and grill for 3 to 4 minutes longer or until cooked to medium doneness. Top each fillet with a few tablespoons of the pesto and garnish with cilantro leaves.
5 Responses to "Salmon with Yellow Pepper Cilantro Pesto"
Yum!! I'm always looking for new ways to make salmon. Can't wait to try this!
This looks delicious! I love pesto with salmon and this adds even more great flavors.
Looks like a perfect salmon recipe! I still haven't been to Penzey's, but will make it there one of these weekends!
So how powerful was the cilantro flavor? I'm not a big fan of cilantro, but Steph is. I might try to make this if it isn't to powerfully flavored with cilantro.
I don't know if we can be friends Scott. Cilantro is awesome. Honestly, it was more garlicy than cilantro flavored, but I've heard that people who don't like cilantro really can't stand it and I love it, so I don't know if that's a fair assessment… I say give it a shot. If you don't like the pesto, eat yours without it.

We are in Charlottesville VA
This is a tried-and-true audience favorite! And now it's BETTER THAN EVER! Some clever features have been added, making your performance so much easier! I'm so excited about this, I just had to make a quick video (filmed in my office) to show you this great trick. And, of course, you are free to use my routine in your own show!
Here's how it goes: you place a red, a yellow and a green ball into the narrow tube. Instantly, the balls change places! But that's not all! Next you put the yellow and green balls into the tube, but put the red ball into a small box. Instantly the box is opened- the red ball has vanished from the box and has reappeared in the tube with the other two balls!
Very easy to perform and gets a great reaction every time! The red, yellow and green colors are also perfect for a show with a safety message, too!
This NEW Pro Model Joker Tube features:
And that's all you need!Clear tube is plastic. It is fixed on a square wood stand.Outer tube with balls design is metal.Balls are hollow plastic.Box is painted wood with Joker design.

I had a question for/people with knowledge of senior disc golf.
I wanted to purchase discs and other equipment for my mom for mother's day. She is 65. She recently had a pretty bad injury to her non-dominant arm. She was a great athlete, played a lot of tennis and other sports, but now she can't really use her right arm (she is left handed). She is in pretty good shape. I was wondering if disc golf could be something she could get into? I am pretty new myself, does throwing put strain on the non-dominant arm?

The mixture has cumin, coriander, chile powder, paprika, cinnamon, allspice, and ginger, and cloves, and it's great to keep on hand, so I highly recommend you make the full amount I'm giving here in the recipe, and then try it on other vegetables as well. I'm guessing if you don't have one or two of the spices listed here that this would still be tasty if you left them out, but I'd encourage you to use make the spice mix as written if possible, because it is so, so, so, so good!
Roasted Butternut Squash with Moroccan Spices
(Makes 4-6 servings, recipe adapted slightly from Fine Cooking Magazine, November 2007.)
(Here is How to Peel and Cut Up a Butternut Squash if you need help with that. I highly recommend using freshly-cut squash for best flavor, but if that just won't work for you this will still be delicious with the pre-cut squash cubes you see in the stores this time of year.)
4-6 cups butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes (one very large butternut squash)
2 T olive oil (or slightly less if you prefer)
1-2 tsp. Moroccan Spice Mix (I used to use only one teaspoon, but now I prefer more.)
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper to taste
sea salt, for seasoning cooked squash
Spice Mix Ingredients:
(makes enough for quite a few batches of roasted veggies):
2 T ground cumin
1 T ground coriander
1 1/2 tsp. chile powder or chili powder (I used ground Ancho chile)
1 1/2 tsp. sweet paprika
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp. ground allspice
3/4 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (or less if you don't want it spicy at all)
pinch ground cloves (optional)
(You can buy all these spices in your local grocery store; I am just including the shopping links for people who like the convenience of ordering online. Kalyn's Kitchen does make a few cents on the dollar when you shop at Amazon through my blog, so thanks for that support!)
This spice mix is also great on other roasted vegetables. Fine Cooking suggests carrots, cauliflower, parsnips, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and turnips.

I'll start the draft around 9 o'clock Saturday morning.
Since the draft order will be determined by the computer at the start of the draft there is no way of knowing who will draft when, until that time.
Since that is the case... Please make an effort to be on the Sports.ws site at that time, incase you have an early draft pick
Also.... we will be using a 24 hour draft clock
This means when the person just ahead of you in the draft order, makes his selection, you will have up to 24 hours to make your pick.
I know we have about 6 weeks to complete the draft but please try to be ready as your selection is nearing. There will be many that will become board & frustrated with those that tend to take too long to make a pick.
Finally, I will be on line as much as possible during the draft, both here as well as the Sports.ws site. If you need help with something or have a question, please send me a PM or post it on the trash talk board.

If you're going to be the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament, you probably ought to get a favorable draw on the road to the Final Four.
For the Louisville Cardinals, so far, so good.
MORE: Louisville vs. Oregon preview | Live NCAA Tournament bracket | March Madness photos
They faced a 16 seed, an 8 seed and, Friday's Midwest Region semifinal, they will play No. 12 seed Oregon. Tipoff is 7:15 ET.
And even though the Ducks are a team many viewed as being underseeded by the NCAA selection committee, they happen to be a team ideally suited to be wrecked by Louisville's full-court pressure defense.
Oregon turns over the ball 15.1 times per game, which is 299th in Division I. Louisville just got done forcing a combined 44 turnovers from North Carolina A&T and Colorado State with a jazzed-up press they rarely used in Big East competition. They figured to retreat to their soft press and 2-3 zone as soon as they faced a serious Final Four contender. But now?
"We've got to do a better job handling the ball against them," Ducks coach Dana Altman said. "They do extend their pressure. They do a great job at changing it up.
"We're not, in three or four days, going to change the way we've played all season. We've got to try to clean it up a little bit. But we're going to make mistakes. We've just got to play through those mistakes. We've been able to overcome our turnovers in most situations."
ALSO: Florida Gulf Coast vs. Florida; will dunk show be enough?
Even in a punishing victory over Midwest No. 4 seed Saint Louis, Oregon committed 18 turnovers. Point guard Johnathan Loyd had four. Forward E.J. Singler committed eight.
Singler said in practice this week the scout team has sometimes fielded six players to make it more difficult for the regulars to advance the ball.
"All you can do is practice it, have some plays for it to break," Singler said. "But there's really nothing else you can do."
PLUS: Michigan vs. Kansas; 7:37 ET tipoff | Michigan State vs. Duke, 9:45 ET tipoff

Kevin Durant: Walking With the Lord (Gospel Light Minute #56)
He said that it is tough to stay humble in a world that is often hyped with fortune and fame. He said, "I sometimes have to remind myself that any day this can be gone. In the Bible, it says the Lord exalts humility, and that's one thing I try to be all the time. When I'm talking in front of people or when people tell me I'm great, I remind myself that I can always be better. I've just got to be thankful to the Lord for the gifts He's given me. My gift back to Him is to always be humble and to work as hard as I can. I've got to continue to be that way." He helps encourage his teammates to put God first in their lives and to allow the light of Christ to shine through in everything they do both on and off the court. His name is Kevin Durant.

Vacation Days
Don't Sweat Vacations
Just because school is out for Winter and Spring Break doesn't mean working parents have to scramble to find activities for their school aged children. The JCC Kids Center works with a wide variety of schools on the North Shore to offer the Big Chill covering Winter Break and The Big Thaw covering Spring break. This series of activities lets you and your child enjoy school vacation but with a routine and structure that occupies and engages them in fun physical and social activities.
Vacation days are also offered anytime local schools are out throughout the school year as well, not just winter and spring breaks.
For more information about vacation days and your options for your school, contact Aaron Stern at 414-967-8218.

When you start talking about must see games, this is one of them. Two of the most dominate, most respected, and most feared teams from the Natural State going head to head.
That is right. It is time, once again, for another epic showdown between the #1 Class 4A Shiloh Christian Saints and the #4 Class 5A Greenwood Bulldogs to lock it up one more time.
What is at stake? Pride, honor, and bragging rights.
Greenwood is the host team, and will have several quality players on the field.
Tyler Shook will lead the Bulldogs on the field. The six foot quarterback threw for 2,865 yards in the Bulldogs spread attack, while completing almost 56% of his passing attempts. Backing him up is junior Tony Sandifer, who also plays running back and wide receiver. He accounted for 822 total yards on offense last season, adding 11 touchdowns.
5-11, 185 pound Travis Green will start at the running back position. The senior battled injuries last season, rushing for 605 and three touchdown. Green showed his potential last season against CAC, where he rushed for 181 yards and three scores to lead the Bulldogs to a 31-17 win. Senior Brodie McCranery has the chance to be change of pace back this upcoming season. The senior ran for 56 yards against Greenbrier in his best outing last season. Junior Marco Vota, one of the returning all-conference players, could see time at running back, but Jones values him too much as a linebacker for him to see extensive duty toting the ball.
Shook's go to receiver for the upcoming season will be 6-3, 180 pound senior Spencer Harris. The other returning all-conference player, Harris has an offer on the table from Missouri State already. He hauled in over 70 catches last season, 14 of them going for touchdowns. Stephen Hogan gives the Bulldogs 6-3 bookend receivers and as a sophomore, caught 21 passes for 274 yards. Classmate Seth Parker, should man a slot position, while three talented sophomores, Daniel Fritsche, Blake Hasley, and Landon Williams will assist.
Greenwood's vocal and spiritual leader, senior Bryan Lloyd, could play either guard or center this upcoming season. Classmate Kyle Helms is coming off a knee injury, but should contribute at the other guard spot. Versatile senior Austin Thomlison can play both guard and tackle. Austin Riggs, Orin Burrows, and Colton Redding will battle it out for the remaining line spots.
Greenwood has perhaps the best kicker in the state in Austin Hartness, who hold state records for career extra points and field goals. The senior connected on 10 of 11 field goals last season. His backup, sophomore Derek Morgan, handled all of the kickoff duties in the playoffs last season and should continue that trend this season.
Helms could pull double duty at defensive tackle, where he had 49 tackles and 7.5 sacks last season. Fellow senior Damien McClain should play alongside him at the other tackle spot. Seniors Tyler Mauch and Michael Wallace play the two end positions. Sophomore Casey Coward, 5-8 and 210 pounds, can play play every line position, linebacker, as well as fullback when Greenwood lines up in a formation that requires one.
Vota collected 94 tackles, 14 for a loss, and four sacks last year. He added three forced fumbles and and two interceptions as well. McCraney has the ability to play all three linebacker spots, as well as safety. Seniors Josh McCutcheon, 6-2 and 200 pounds, and Torry Nixon had great off-seasons and will factor heavily into the linebacker rotation. Sophomore Howie Cox has the size at 6-0 and 220 pounds to make an immediate impact as well.
Sandifer leads a proven secondary from his strong safety position. Senior Kyle Simmons acculmated 40 tackles last season and has the height at 6-0 to match up with almost any receiver. 6-2, 180 pound senior Drew Halsey returns at free safety, where he amassed almost 30 tackles last season. His sophomore brother, Blake, saw varsity practice time in the spring and could play on Friday nights this fall. Harris sees spot duty in nickel and dime packages.
Shiloh Christian will also host a platoon of quality players.
Quarterback Kiehl Frazier been getting major recruiting attention, and recently picked up an offer from the University of Miami. Even as a junior, he is one of the Natural State's top quarterbacks.
Senior Chris Bryant and junior Garret Harper will lead the way in the backfield at running back, while Wilson Huett leads the way at fullback. Mitchell Roberts could even see time at fullback, though he is one of Shiloh's top defensive players at the linebacker position. Junior's Will McKay and Jason Schisler could get reps as well.
Leading the way on the receiving corp will be junior Zann Jones who earned All State honors as a sophomore. Senior Jake Scott, juniors Jon Hawes and Collin Self look to get major playing time as well. Others in the rotation could be Casey Holloway, Ryan Marchewka, and Scotty Sappenfield.
The linemen holding down the trenches will be one of Shiloh's many strength's this season. Junior Travis Bodenstein will lead the way at left tackle, while senior Josh Salbury will be in his fourth year on the line, and third at center. Junior Samuel Harvill who bench presses over 530 pounds, will play right guard, while senior Justin Young will hold down the left guard position. Troy Goss, Ryan Hyde, Jimmy Riggs, and Andrew Rowe could see time as well.
Senior Trevor Tumlinson is setting state records as kicker, and is poised to have a big season as well.
On defense, Harvill will lead the way at nose guard for the Saints, while Hyde will see time at defensive end. Salsbury and Goss will hold down the interior line, while junior Chase Richards could see time at end and linebacker.
Speaking of linebackers, Mitchell Roberts will lead the way for the Saints. The senior is another Saint with numerous scholarship offers, and looks to be backed up by sophomore Tyler Harris. Junior Colt Thomas was strong all last season, to include making 10 key tackles in the State Championship game against Dollarway. Others who could see time include junior Jacob Coffman, senior Dylan Ceola and sophomore David Petrino.
Wilson Huett will lead the secondary for the Saints. The corner had 66 tackles and 7 interceptions last season. David Matthews could see time in the secondary as well if he does in fact play for the Saints this season, and Jon Hawes could see time as well. Frazier could see time at safety as well as Will McKay.
The game will kick off at 7:30 PM at Greenwood. It should without a doubt be one for the ages, as the game has turned into a rivalry, and both teams are looking to make a statement.
You can rest assured, despite who wins the game, a statement will be made, and the winning team will be able to hold their heads high.
If you can not make it to this game, you at least need to try to listen to it. Visit www.HogsNow.com to view radio stations around the state that will be airing this game, or to listen live.

The first thing I noticed about this Mini is its adorable cream, black, and silver color scheme, which I love. The second thing I noticed is that this Mini Camden Edition talks to you! Start the car and a male/female trio starts chatting through some unseen speaker. It all starts as soon as you insert the flat round key and push the start button. Usually the woman chirps in first with some sort of comment like "All systems go!" and an admonition to fasten your seatbelt. All of them have British accents. Here's a sampling of other conversations I got to listen to. They can be switched off, but I was curious to see how large of a conversational vocabulary is built into the car; quite large, it seems:
Male voice: "Now hold on, I'll let you know when I'm warmed up and ready to go full tilt."
"This is engine. I want to make an announcement. I am warmed up and really, really ready for action!"
There was light rain, which the car clearly could detect, because the woman said: "Be careful, everyone! It's raining out!"
Male voice: "OK, here comes the rain."
She replies: "I'm always ready for some weather."
He chimes in: "Seatbelt checked. Happiness is driving a Mini. Letttt's Mini!"
Other commentary: "We have ignition. The rest comes naturally to a Mini."
"After the rain comes sunshine. Only this time, the prince or princess rides a Mini!"
"Let's clear a view, shall we?" (after I get in the car and the windows are fogged up)
"This is the Mini in motion," he says. "I'm in love." He continues: "Never underestimate a Mini. I told you."
This morning, the woman noticed that it was cold: "It's not exactly icy outside, but it sure is chilly," she said. He added, "I'll be sure and let you know when I'm warmed up." Then he says when I accelerate a bit, "Oh, my, take it easy! I'm only partially warmed up yet. I'll let you know as soon as I'm good to go." Shortly thereafter, he confirms, "I'm warmed up now."
When I arrive at the office and hit the start button to turn off the car, the woman says, "Bye, take care."
You, too, hon.
Joe DeMatio, Deputy Editor
Seriously, officer; the car told me to do it. In addition to the various dialogues outlined by Joe DeMatio, Mini's "Mission Control" can occasionally goad drivers into doing some absolutely entertaining (and likely illegal) activities. "Engine"-one of three personas that randomly pop into the cabin-cheers when you peg the throttle against the floorboard, celebrates when you hit 5000 RPM, shouts out your acceleration times, and compliments your manic driving by saying it's like a scene straight out of The Italian Job. As if I needed more encouragement to drive like Charlie Croker…
Mission Control may be a main talking point (pun intended) of the Camden package, but I'm rather smitten with the other upgrades it throws in. I found the cream and black color scheme attractive, but it's even more so inside-the striped dash appliqué and the shiny fabric used in the seat inserts aren't substantial upgrades, but they do look quite spiffy. I also dig the grille badge and the old fashioned pedal set, both serving as subtle hints at the original Mini.
Sadly, I can't defend opting for the entire package. $4500 is a lot of money for a talking toy and some spiffy duds, to say nothing of the additional $500 you're forced to spend for one of the three colors mandated by the Camden package. Similar money can upgrade buyers from a Cooper to a turbocharged Cooper S-I promise you the extra power is more entertaining than a collection of digitized voices.
Evan McCausland, Web Producer
For $4500, I could probably hire Dick Van Dyke to ride shotgun with me and reprise his role from Mary Poppins. (Seriously. Does he has anything better to do?) That would basically have the same effect as listening to this Mini drone on and on with over-the-top British enthusiasm. Although charming at first, the voiceovers soon become simply one more annoying electronic intrusion into the driving experience. Like Evan, I'd rather put that money toward a Cooper S than have some computer congratulate me on every turn and remind me to buckle my seatbelt.
Of course, you could just not opt for the extras and enjoy the Mini for what it is-a fantastic, fun-to-drive small car. Beyond the cheap thrills it provides on any back road, the Mini also does impressive work on the highway, cruising comfortably as speeds that would require a white-knuckle grip in a Honda Fit.
David Zenlea, Assistant Editor
Yes, the talking Mission Control is pure gimmick, but it's a novel concept in a novel car, and there's always the off button when you've had enough. Interestingly, Mini has simply provided the sound files on an SD card in the upper glovebox. As my casual, half-hearted hacking proved, the Camden can also be reprogrammed to say whatever the heck you want it to say. Just pop out the SD card and drop on a few strategically named MP3 files. So while a Mini that talks like Knight Rider's KITT may not be any less annoying, it may satisfy your inner nerd that much more. I imagine some Camden owners will eventually take the time to develop more complete packages of new voices.
As others have mentioned, $4500 seems like a steep price to pay for the Camden package, which adds seventeen-inch wheels, sport seats, foglights, premium audio, and the unique color scheme. That paint job, though, is largely lost on me, and the premium audio is ruined by the interrupting trio of digital passengers. Of course, you can't argue with the exceptional driving dynamics of the MINI Cooper, all of which are still intact.
Eric Tingwall, Associate Editor
This is the first base Mini I've driven in years, and I was very happy to sample the normally aspirated engine. Since Minis are essentially small, front-wheel-drive BMWs, they get incredibly expensive once you start adding the go-fast parts that come standard on the S and JCW cars. While the extra power can be a hoot, it's certainly not needed. A $19,500 Mini with no added equipment is still a great ride for an enthusiast, and you won't feel like you're riding in an economy car. And how about that 37 mpg EPA highway rating! For once, a subcompact car has an appropriate fuel economy rating.
Mini offers the only truly premium small car on the market today. Everything from the suspension tuning to the interior materials feels distinctly upmarket, and the cute exterior is probably enough justification for a lot of people to downsize into a Mini. Just for fun, I optioned out a Mini without any concern over the price and came out a bit under $25k. The best part of optioning out a base Mini instead of going for the S is that you can skip the performance run-flat tires, which makes for a much more comfortable ride over broken pavement.
Phil Floraday, Senior Online Editor
Like Phil, I haven't driven a base-engine Mini Cooper in quite a while, but I was very pleasantly surprised with the quickness of this car. In fact, after a few acceleration runs, I wondered if I might have been driving a turbocharged Cooper S after all. Given the extreme torque steer that plagues turbocharged Minis (particularly those with limited-slip differentials), I almost prefer this cheaper, more economical, yet less powerful base edition.
This particular Camden edition, however, I'm less sure about. I tend to floor the accelerator pedal quite a bit, and I quickly got annoyed by the "Fuullll thrrotttlle!" comments from the digital peanut gallery. I also didn't like being nagged about upshifting when I was in a traffic jam.
Still, as Evan noted, the Camden does have a very attractive black and white interior. And I can definitely understand the appeal of special editions of cars with huge enthusiast followings such as the Mini, the Corvette, the Mustang, and the Miata. They help individuals' cars stand out, and they can make for interesting collectible footnotes years down the road. (For instance, I own a 1967 MGB/GT "Special," which is one of less than 500 sold. It's not really worth much more than regular MGB/GTs today, but it helps my less-than-pristine car stand out from the crowds of MGBs and other little British cars.)
Rusty Blackwell, Copy Editor
The Camden Edition exterior color scheme is a bit bland but the interior looks and feels really special. The textured seat material provides some character but doesn't overpower the small cabin. The same goes for the striped plastic insert on the dash. It adds nice texture to the Mini's generally plain cabin but because it's slightly transparent it looks great and offers a nice contrast to the seat pattern.
This normally aspirated Cooper has a completely different character than the turbo. I certainly wouldn't call it slow but it definitely lacks the urgent acceleration of the turbo and the JCW editions. More importantly, though, it lacks the torque steer that the turbo exacerbates, which I didn't miss in my short time with this Mini. It still has the fun-to-drive factor in spades despite this Camden edition's annoying pseudo English-accented electronic peanut gallery.

New York -- Brian Atwood, designer of luxury footwear and handbags, opened its first flagship, in New York City. The company was acquired by The Jones Group Inc. last June.
The store, designed by William Sofield of Studio Sofield, in collaboration with designer Brian Atwood, spans 1,500 sq. ft. of retail space and houses the largest selection of Brian Atwood footwear and handbags in the world. Select items are labeled with quick response (QR) codes, allowing customers to use their smartphone or an in-store iPad to activate a series of videos in which the designer shares insider details like his inspiration and other anecdotes.
Designed to convey the glamorous lifestyle synonymous with Brian Atwood, the salons feature satin upholstered cylindrical displays, mirrored panel walls and rock crystal ornament detailing. The store's color palette ranges from aubergine and violet to sea foam and mercury.
Brian Atwood, creative director and designer of Brian Atwood, said: "I wanted the store to be the chicest luxury haven – where beauty encompasses you from the moment you walk in, like a Faberge egg."
Other brand-centric design details include stiletto heel facade window displays and shelving with mohair and antique bronze trimmed shoe trays. The Sofield-designed custom furniture, such as the curved settees in violet mohair with bullion fringe trim and the satin scroll benches, is a mix of Regency and French flourish.

A Huge Kiss for Soap & Glory!If I had to change one feature, it would be my lips. They have a great shape, but I wish they were fuller, ala Angelina Jolie's. Evidently other women feel the same way, as lip plumpers appeared on the market and continue to flourish. When they first arrived on the scene, I wasn't sure what made them enhance one's pout. And then I did some research: Plumpers actually irritate the thin skin of...read more the lips with ingredients such as Menthol, Camphor, Cinnamon, and/or Cayenne Pepper, which rushes blood to the area to produce a temporary swelling. Others rely on Niacin and Retinol to increase the size of the blood vessels, resulting in the same effect. When lips are fuller, annoying lines and creases are smoothed and are less noticeable. Once lips have ballooned, they are enhanced by emollients to keep lips supple and lines blurred. Soap & Glory's "Super Color Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss" claims to contain Superfill® Technology and LIPSWELL™ plant oil infusion. This gloss is chock-full of hydrating ingredients, to keep lips lush and bountiful once they are slightly enlarged: Mineral, Castor Seed, and Apricot Kernel Oils, along with Silica. The "stinging" sensation which comes along with this gloss is not as harsh as it is with some other brands, and there is a delectable scent and taste as well. The colors are beautiful and produce a patent-leather shine: Among others, there is "Baby Doll" (sheer pink and a chocolate/raspberry flavor), "Dusty Rose" (with a taste like buttered popcorn!), "Yummy Plum" (dark coral-plum and a chocolate/raspberry tang), and "Candy Gloss" (champagne shimmer with a vanilla flavor). Since the plumping effect is only temporary, you do have to reapply for the effect, but you'll need to do so less often than with other brands as well. I've tried many, and this remains my favorite. On a diet? Apply some lip gloss and live vicariously. You'll save yourself from too many calories and keep beautiful at the same time! — 4 years, 6 months agoGigiSD | 1102 reviews

Best lip gloss purchase I have madeI'm a bit bummed that target quit carrying Soap and Glory. I loved it when the products went on sale!!! I bought the 3 pack of lip glosses over two years ago and am about half way through two of the tubes- the third I haven't even cracked yet. The gloss lasts and lasts and it really does plump my lips. However, I find that it really only works if it can make contact with your lips, in otherwords d...read moreon't expect to experience the full effect if you put it over lipstick or Chapstick. It also takes a few minutes before I start to feel the tingle that lets me know that it's working. I usually put it on before I leave the house and then apply lipstick in the car about 5 minutes later. It works well over matte lipstains as well, I would just advise allowing a few minutes for the stain to dry down and set before gloss application. I will say that this gloss is pale, very lightly pigmented- I perfer it that way though, as it augments my lips and I can choose any color of lipstain or stick to work with it. Oh, and I'll also add that although I've had this gloss for 2 years, I haven't experienced any diminishing returns- works as great as the first day! — 5 years, 7 months agoElphieGranger | 80 reviews

Good for Sensitive LipsMy lips peeled with other lip plumping products. Soap & Glory has a more gentle formula, although it's just as effective. My lips were slightly fuller, but they didn't peel as they did with the other items. The colors are beautiful and the gloss is non-sticky and smooth. Love it! — 4 years, 6 months agoLaRu | 56 reviews

A Trowbridge man who was accused of possessing a prohibited weapon has had the charge against him dropped.
Bryan Burrows, 45, would have faced the prospect of a mandatory five-year jail term had he been convicted of having the Brocock .38 self-contained cartridge system.
But prosecutors offered no evidence against Mr Burrows, of Westfield Road, Trowbridge, when he appeared at Swindon Crown Court on Friday.
Judge Tim Mousley QC entered a formal not guilty verdict and ordered Mr Burrows' out of pocket costs be paid.
A second man, Frank Welch, 50, of The Glebe, Freshford, Bath, is still set to face trial on the charge.
It is alleged he had the cartridge with a Brocock ME38 Magnum revolver on Tuesday, November 19, last year. The case against him was adjourned to Monday, September 15.

University budgetary support for the Athletics Department at the University of Colorado at Boulder will be reduced by about 5 percent this year, according to a budget request summary presented Monday, June 2, by athletics Director Dick Tharp.
The 1997-98 athletics budget is part of the overall Boulder campus budget request to be presented by Chancellor Richard L. Byyny at the CU Board of Regents budget and planning retreat June 3-4 in Estes Park.
The Athletics Department also will make a contribution of $65,000 to the Boulder campus from departmental revenues in support of undergraduate education programs.
Byyny said, I am pleased with the departments response to CU-Boulders budgetary challenges. Dick Tharp and his staff have demonstrated a commitment to fiscal accountability in an era of fewer and fewer resources.
I believe this budget request is consistent with campuswide efforts to streamline operations and focus on priorities within the framework of strategic planning, said Tharp. We are working hard to continue improving our program while recognizing the limited availability of institutional resources.
Highlights of the athletics budget include:
University and campus support will be reduced from about $2.2 million to about $2.1 million, continuing a downward trend in institutional support. This is the ninth year of reductions in university support.
The 1997-98 athletics budget totals about $22 million, compared with about $21 million last year. The reported increase is due primarily to the transfer of financial responsibility and management of the Coors Events Center and increased costs associated with additional projected promotions and marketing revenue.
The pool for salary increases will be 3.8 percent, consistent with faculty and unclassified staff increases on campus.
The budget includes more than $230,000 in increases designed to help bring the department into compliance with Title IX.
No new positions are budgeted, other than those mandated for Title IX compliance.
Aside from Title IX obligations and other extraordinary costs, direct costs of projected program growth including inflationary factors are limited to less than 3 percent.
The student athletic fee will be held at the 1996-97 level.

For one final autumn Saturday, the man who ought to be college football's coach of the year will board one of the blue buses with his team. He'll probably have a cup of Dunkin Donuts coffee in one hand, and he'll likely stare silently out the window as the caravan makes that familiar right turn onto Fox Hollow Road.
Will Bill O'Brien allow any sentimentality to invade his thoughts as the majesty of Beaver Stadium comes into view? Will he even pay much notice to the fanatical globs of humans in their thick white attire who line the streets and wave their signs and slip into an almost trance-like worship as the buses grind by?
This could be his last trek to this magical place, so perhaps O'Brien will savor the experience even more than normal. NFL teams have begun sniffing around, and while he will not dignify their interest with any public remark, he must view these past months with a large heaping of satisfaction.
— Penn State tops Wisconsin in overtime
No coach in history has ever been burdened with such an enormous task. O'Brien wasn't only hired to fill the loafers of Joe Paterno, a man who ages ago soared past the mortals and into the mystics. In taking over the head coaching reigns at Penn State University last January, O'Brien was asked to resuscitate a team that had been unfairly gobbled up in one of the most horrific scandals of our time; he was summoned to soothe sponsors, donors and recruits and to assure those who care about the football program that there would be life after the sanctions.
Oh, and a decent season sure wouldn't hurt.
So here are the Nittany Lions now, as this sui generis time comes to a close. Saturday is Senior Day, and that alone ought to squeeze a few extra tears from players who decided to stick around when transferring to a university with far less problems would have been the easier route.
Wisconsin, always a difficult test — last year's embarrassing rout still stings — has the same 7-4 record as the Lions, but that's where the comparisons fade. The Badgers represent the Leaders Division in the Big Ten Conference Championship Game and await only an opponent. This is Penn State's bowl game, its chance to deliver a fierce parting shot to all who mocked the Lions when they were at their nadir.
Coaches at every level are supposed to do a little mind shaping and pruning. O'Brien's challenge went so much deeper. He had to change the way his players thought, to clear their heads of so many heavy ideas and doubts and ugly visions brought about by the pedophile Jerry Sandusky and his evil enablers. These players had zero to do with Sandusky's depravity or the ensuing cover-up and trial, but they nonetheless had to endure torrents of cruel jokes, catcalls and questions.
How many times would a player be asked by family or friends why he chose to stay at THAT university? You know the one — Pedophile U. There's a reason we never heard about a rash of players acting out, of defending their school's honor. O'Brien, the ultimate outsider, convinced them to turn the other cheek.
The hiring of this taciturn New Englander was despised by plenty of fans and former players. They claimed it would take a man whose arteries bled blue to understand the culture and heal a community that was raw and angry. O'Brien could have allowed reporters to trail him as he spoke almost daily at coffee houses and high schools and in the living rooms of families who wondered why they should send their child to THAT university. But if Happy Valley were to recover, if it were to return to some sort of new normal, the mending could only be aided by someone who wasn't a megalomaniac, someone who might not have been raised in central Pennsylvania, but who respected its static charms, its powerful loyalties.
O'Brien will never be the sort who feeds the cameras. For that reason alone, the locals ought to throw him a party.
His mid-week press conferences are hardly folksy gather-arounds. He's known to answer even soft questions with the spot-on imitation soberness of his old boss, Bill Belichick. But a few days ago, when the subject of his senior class arose, a lump caught in O'Brien's throat.
"It's hard to put into words what this senior class means to this football program, this athletic department and this university. These are young guys (who have) been through a lot," he said. "They've been through the death of their former head coach, a legendary coach. They went thorough all the things that went on off the field. … They hung tough."
From an 0-2 start came more whispers about more players transferring. Senior running back Bill Belton was injured; field-goal attempts were missed. The loss to Ohio State hurt most. But in between there were those five consecutive victories, and an offense that caused old-timers to wonder if they had been transported to another place and time. It was so cutting edge, so diametric to decades of the staid run-first mentality of the previous century.
Bring some noisemakers to O'Brien's party, to salute the innovator who dared usher in change.
Quarterback Matt McGloin, the walk-on who for season after season chomped silently on the sidelines under the Paterno regime, has reworked the school's record books via O'Brien's pro-style passing attack. After finishing with three catches last season, sophomore wideout Allen Robinson has also shattered school records, while Zach Zwinak, last year's third-string fullback, might finish the season with more rushing yards than Silas Redd, who in the scandal's wake transferred to Southern Cal. It's pretty hard to mock a team when it's blowing past the pylons.
"(O'Brien) and Coach (Charlie) Fisher have done a great job of teaching me how to play quarterback the correct way," McGloin, the Big Ten Conference's top passer, recently told reporters. "They have so much experience that it can't help but rub off on you."
How does so much good happen to a team that lost 10 offensive starters before the season began? How does it score an average of 10 points more every game than previous years? How does it keep setting records even while under the thick shadow of NCAA sanctions? Somehow O'Brien got his players to see beyond history and limitations and buy into what he knew could be.
"He was completely honest with us and told us it was going to be difficult. He knew what we were facing. He didn't pretend like it was going to be a lot of fun," linebacker Glenn Carson said. "Coach didn't tell us what we wanted to hear, he told us what we needed to hear and that was the truth. That truth helped us form a really strong bond."
Eventually O'Brien will share his future plans with them — possibly even in the emotional glow of this final Autumn Saturday, after Penn State's extraordinary season comes to an end. Eight years remain on his contract, but no matter the rosy sheen, the reality is still harsh. The Lions are not eligible for the postseason for the next four years. In 2014, the number of scholarships allowed will be slashed by 20.
He certainly couldn't be faulted for heeding the NFL's siren call, for returning to his recent roots.
Last season, O'Brien served as Patriots offensive coordinator. The Jacksonville Jaguars viewed him as a top candidate for its head coach, but even that mess seems minor compared to what he faced in State College.
A win against Wisconsin would seal Penn State's final record at 8-4, a beyond astounding accomplishment considering all that transpired in the darkest offseason imaginable.
At a chic dinner in Houston on Jan. 17, the winner of the Paul "Bear" Bryant Coach of the Year will be announced. Eighteen coaches are on the final list, including the 43-year-old O'Brien. Back in 1986, Paterno was the award's first recipient.
That was another world, a different lifetime.
If O'Brien's name isn't announced this time around, we might as well rip up the definition of coach and start from scratch. Nobody's fulfilled the job requirements quite like this.

Israel halts peace talks with Palestinians
AP Friday, April 25, 2014, 1:08 pm TWN
JERUSALEM -- Israel broke off Mideast peace talks and brought the U.S.-brokered process to the brink of collapse Thursday, protesting a reconciliation agreement between the Western-backed Palestinian Authority and the militant group Hamas, the Jewish state's sworn enemy.
Israel's Security Cabinet made the decision during a marathon emergency meeting convened to discuss the new Palestinian deal. The rival Palestinian factions Hamas and Fatah announced the reconciliation plan Wednesday, meant to end a seven-year rift.
Israel objects to any participation in Palestinian politics by Hamas, which has killed hundreds of Israelis in suicide bombings and other attacks over the past two decades.
In a statement issued by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office, the government said it would not hold negotiations with a government "backed by Hamas."
"Instead of choosing peace, Abu Mazen formed an alliance with a murderous terrorist organization that calls for the destruction of Israel," the statement said, referring to a name Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas is also known by.
The statement said Israel also would respond to Abbas' recent decision to join 15 international conventions "with a series of steps," language that typically refers to financial sanctions against the Palestinians.
Even with the tough stance, Netanyahu left the door open to salvaging negotiations, which are set to expire next Tuesday.
"He still has the opportunity to reverse course, to go to the right direction, to abandon this pact with Hamas," Netanyahu told U.S. broadcaster NBC. "I hope he does it. Because if we encounter a Palestinian leadership and a Palestinian government that is ready to pursue genuine peace negotiations, we're going to be there."
Israel transfers about $100 million in tax and customs money to the Palestinians each month. It has withheld these funds in the past as a punitive measure, money needed to keep Abbas' self-rule government afloat.
Abbas won assurances in recent Arab League meetings that Arab countries would pay $100 million to the Palestinian Authority if Israel freezes the transfers. However, some of the Arab donor countries have in the past not met their aid commitments.
Saeb Erekat, the chief Palestinian peace negotiator, said Palestinian reconciliation is an internal matter.
"Israel had no right to interfere in this issue," he said. He condemned any possible Israeli sanctions as "piracy," saying the tax revenues are Palestinian money.
For U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, the Israeli decision was the latest -- and perhaps final -- blow to the peace efforts he has led for the past nine months.
With great expectations, Kerry persuaded the sides to resume peace talks last July after a nearly five-year break.
Initially, he hoped to forge a comprehensive peace deal ending decades of conflict. But after months of fruitless efforts, Kerry scaled back his goals and said he would seek a preliminary "framework" agreement by April, with the goal of extending talks to hammer out the final details.
Despite more than 10 visits to the region, and numerous phone calls with the Israeli and Palestinian leaders, Kerry had to abandon even that more modest goal for simply seeking a way to extend talks.

I am working on cleaning up pages that were built wth Twitter Bootstrap. Every page has the complete set of Booststrap Javascript codes that COULD be used. But to speed up the page I want to delete all the JS that is not used. (see example below)
From trial and error on one page, I found that only two of the JavaScript codes were actually used. :eek:
Is there an easy program or some automatic way to determine which JavaScript pieces are used? (I really don't want to do trial and error removal on all the pages )
<!-- Java Script placed at the end of the document so the pages load faster -->
<!-- Le javascript -->
<script src="../assets/js/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-transition.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-alert.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-modal.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-dropdown.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-scrollspy.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-tab.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-tooltip.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-popover.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-button.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-collapse.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-carousel.js"></script>
<script src="../assets/js/bootstrap-typeahead.js"></script>
It would only really be worth removing those that none of your pages use - they will be cached by the first page that loads them so any you remove will make no difference to the load time of subsequent pages unless that page uses the one removed in which case it will be slower to load.
Also if they are at the bottom of the page then they will be loading while your visitor is interacting with the page and so it will make no difference to them how long they take to load.
Unless the ability to interact is dependent upon the scripts' functionality, which is not unusual.
Hi Greg,
There are various tools for finding redundant Javascript functions, but I'm not sure how useful these would be to you.A quick Google search turns up quite a few interesting discussions around this topic on StackOverflow.
One of the more interesting suggestions to emerge from reading these, was to use Google's Closure compiler for this purpose.
From the Closure compiler's documentation:
Compilation with ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS removes code that is provably unreachable. This is especially useful in combination with large libraries. If you use only a few functions from a large library file, the compiler can remove everything except those functions from its output.
Regarding, the removal of individual files, as felgall points out, the browser will have cached them anyway, so this makes little difference to your overal performance.
However, I just had a look at your site and have a couple of suggestions/observations:
Hope that helps
... in which case, the site has failed to observe the principle of progressive enhancement, which ensures that the page is usable with or without scripting ...[/ot]
I did the switch to the combined & minified versions of JS and CSS. Between doing that and compressing the images I was able to get the Page speed score to improve from 78/100 to 85/100.
Thanks for the tip Pullo!

A buddy of mine told me yesterday that in a state tournament last year, he was in a situation where moving forward towards the basket was a total losing battle and would have cost him at least 3 strokes to get out of the brush and trees. However, the path the disc took into the woods and brush was wide open. So, he marked his lie, threw back out of the woods from the direction he came into the woods (playing back to the fairway), and was told told he had to re-throw that. Two of the guys on the card told him he had to "advance his lie" beyond his marker and could not throw behind his lie. So not knowing the validity of this, he just went back to his lie, muscled a big hyzer out of the woods (almost going backwards, but landing a foot or more beyond his 'lie'.
This sounded funny to me, so I look it up this morning on the PDGA website and can't find anything about this "advancing your lie" situation. Am I missing anything?
