Lurcher Mac (Club Member) stayed Apr 2012 This review is for Trinity Camping and Caravanning Spent a great weekend at Trinity, we were the only ones there so had the site to ourselves. It is a basic site in a large, well maintained, flat field at the rear of the church. There are toilets which are in a portacabin, a CDP and a water tap. The owners are friendly and knowledgeable on the local area. The site is best approached via Gilberdyke due to the narrow roads. It cost £7 per night for 2 adults and a dog. There is a pub in Blacktoft which serves good food and has great views over the river Ouse. It is very popular for Sunday lunch so booking may be necessary. There is also a small cafe/book stall/information stand in Village Hall. There are great walks along the river which is part of the Trans Pennine Trail. There is also a bridle way at the end of the camping field which is handy for exercising dogs off the lead. The surrounding area is very flat and the local roads are quiet so it's an ideal place for cycling. There are a number of shops/pubs/takeaways in the area, the nearest being at Gilberdyke and Newport. There is a bus stop in village with buses going to Goole or South Cave. The site is close to Humber Bridge and is ideal if visiting The Deep in Hull. We had a fantastic time at Trinity and will definitely return in the future.

Hi all and welcome to
As I have mentioned before I haven't been a 100% wrestling addict all the time, I've left during the bad times and returned during the good.
I wanted to share my defining wrestling history and the moments that sent me away and moments that brought me back.

Hi All,
I have been away from this site for a while for 2 reasons;
1.Personal reasons, let's just say me and my 'tag team partner' parted ways after many years.

Hi all it's Dazzaschofield back with another blog.
I hear a lot of argument on her about different era's and how people want the WWE to move on and others don't think it's been as good since the attitude era. This has all been personal opinion so I though I'd throw a blog together with some stats and a Raw 1999 vs Raw 2012 analysis.
Firstly here is the roster breakdown for
Hi all and welcome to another weak dose of Dazza with today's Blog - Let This Era Die!
This last Monday night on Raw we got an excellent promo from HHH regarding his inevitable match at Wrestlemania with The Undertaker.
This promo seemed to blur the line between promo and shoot for HHH as he brought up the subject of how he could not end The Undertaker as he is seen as a
I was reading through a previous thread about unifying the two main WWE titles and was struck by a comment on there that was somewhere along the lines of...
"Unifying the titles is stupid as there wouldn't be enough title opportunities for 40 odd wrestlers"
After I picked my jaw up off the floor at this comment I decided to reply and part way through realised this

HARWINTON >> A challenge for the second selectman's seat in Harwinton could stir tomorrow night's Republican Town Meeting and caucus.
The nominating committee, under chairwoman Candace Jones-Pacholski, have suggested Dan Thurston for the seat of second selectman instead of incumbent Jon Truskauskas.
Thurston, a decorated Vietnam veteran who has been active in community and state veteran affairs, said he interviewed for the position and found out that the committee was officially nominating him at a Republican committee meeting.
He said the idea of running has crossed his mind in the past but the opportunity presented itself and he is now in the position to pursue it.
"It was about time for me to put my money where my mouth is," said Thurston. "I've long held the opinion that more townspeople should be involved in the political system."
While the nominating committee has chosen to support Thurston, Truskauskas is not ready to give up the seat and has vowed to challenge the nomination at tomorrow night's meeting.
"I intend to run for the position and keep the seat," said Truskauskas, a fourth-generation Harwinton resident.
His expectation is that he will get a nomination from the floor during the committee meeting before the caucus. At the caucus, the slate will be opened for all registered Republicans to vote on. According to Truskauskas, the slate that includes Thurston is just a suggestion, and things can change in the meeting.
If he doesn't come out of the committee meeting with the nomination, there is an opportunity for him to be nominated from the floor during the actual caucus.
"That's the way we expect it go to," said Truskauskas. "I have every intention of going to a primary if I don't get the nomination, but I don't expect it to go that far."
First Selectman Michael Criss, who has been nominated by the party for re-election, said he fully expected Truskauskas to get the nomination and in fact, had filed his paperwork with Truskauskas as his running mate. He was as surprised as anyone to hear that Thurston got the nomination instead of Truskauskas.
"It changes the game plan a bit," said Criss.
Regardless of who wins the nomination, Criss said he's prepared to work with either candidate. He has told both Thurston and Truskauskas that he will not campaign for either one of them.
"Is one better than the other? Who knows," said Criss. "Your coin toss is as good as mine."
Of the issue of a primary, Criss said he doesn't think it's a good idea.
"I've talked with both of them and expressed my dissatisfactions with a primary," said Criss. "They're grown men and they're entitled to fight for the position if they want to."
Truskauskas said he has speculations as to why he wasn't nominated by the committee, but said he wouldn't comment further.
Criss said he asked the same question and was told that the committee felt this individual was what was best at the time; an answer Criss has not questioned.
The town meeting will begin at 7 p.m. and be followed by the caucus set to start at 7:30 p.m. in the Harwinton Town Hall.

Kind of like how the old (circle tool) Wizards were over-stable, but the modern ones are purely stable...I encountered the same with the Challenger. My sources on the inside say that this is simply what they do (both Discraft and Gateway), people complained that the putters were too over-stable and so they started to tweak the blend to get them more stable instead. Publicly, of course, the Discraft folks are supposed to parrot the "consistency" garbage peddled by Discraft (consistent my ass!).
Still, I dream about that older Pro D Challenger. Disc golf just isn't the same without it. Maybe another manufacturer will make one like that one day.

Category: Wall Street names
In the course of leading a basically bicoastal life, I've had the opportunity to spend a lot of time walking and driving the streets of both New York and L.A. And I have to say, as rhythmic and melodious as so many of the California names are– e.g. Alameda, Amanita, Mariposa, Morella– for native New Yorker me there's nothing like the solid, straight-forward, usable street names of downtown Manhattan, from Greenwich Village to the Wall Street area, names resonant with references to early American history.
The names of these meandering streets, lanes and alleys were subject to shifting trends. Many British names were changed after the Revolutionary War, for example, and for a time fashion dictated that streets named for local property owners would carry the first names only. Leaders in the War of 1812 provided a goodly share of names, as did figures connected to Trinity Church.
Here are Lower Manhattan street names with their historical roots–any of which would make a possible namesake.
ALLEN — after War of 1812 hero Captain William Henry Allen
ANN – named for either a member of the Beekman clan or the wife of Captain William Henry Allen
ASTOR –named for John Jacob Astor, "the richest man in America"
BARCLAY – Reverend Henry Barclay was the second rector of Trinity Church
BARROW— artist Thomas Barrow was known for his portraits of Trinity Church
BAXTER—originally called Orange Street, renamed for Mexican War hero Colonel Charles Baxter
BAYARD –Nicholas Bayard was mayor of NY in 1686
BENSON — Egbert Benson was New York's first Attorney General
BETHUNE—named for philanthropist Johanna Graham Bethune
BLEECKER—the street ran through the farm of Anthony L. Bleecker
CARMINE—for Trinity Church vestryman Nicolas Carman (sic)
CATHERINE – the wife of land owner Henry Rutgers
CHARLES ––named for landowner Charles Christopher Amos
CHARLTON — Dr. John Charlton, an English-born surgeon, became president of the N.Y. Medical Society
CHRISTOPHER—also named for Charles Christopher Amos, a local landowner
CHRYSTIE – named for Lt.-Col. John Christie (sic), killed in the War of 1812
CLARKSON – Revolutionary War hero Matthew Clarkson
CLINTON— George Clinton, was a Revolutionary War hero and the first governor of New York State
CORNELIA – a beloved granddaughter of landowner Robert Herring
CROSBY – named for William Bedlow Crosby, who inherited much of the Lower East Side
DELANCEY – named after James De Lancey, Sr, whose farm was located in what is now the LES
DUANE –James Duane was an early mayor of the city
ELDRIDGE –named for a Lieutenant killed in the War of 1812
ELIZABETH — unknown
ESSEX – named for the English county (as were nearby Norfolk and Suffolk Streets)

Ex-Jay Arencibia responds to boos with home run
TORONTO -- J.P. Arencibia felt right at home when he stepped to the plate at Rogers Centre as an opposing player for the first time on Friday, greeted by a chorus of boos.
The former Blue Jay, who was non-tendered by Toronto in the offseason after spending parts of four years with the club, proved as much in his third plate appearance of the night.
Arencibia smoked a first-pitch offering from Toronto starter R.A. Dickey on a line to left field for his second homer of the season to put the Rangers ahead 5-0 and silence the crowd of 38,012.
"I view it as they cared for me," Arencibia said of the boos, following the Rangers' 5-1 series-opening win. "It's definitely better as an opposing player if you get booed.
"I have a lot of great memories here and that's definitely not going to do anything to take it away. It's kind of flattering when they boo you, it gives you a little bit more fire."
After serving as Toronto's starting catcher for three seasons from 2011-13 and averaging over 20 homers a year, Arencibia returned to Toronto as Texas' starting first baseman.
In four trips to the plate, he went 1-for-3 with a season-high three RBIs and was hit by a pitch in the fifth, later coming around to score on Rougned Odor's triple.
Rangers manager Ron Washington is hoping Arencibia can build off Friday's game.
"I hope it gives him confidence. He certainly didn't lack it when he arrived here from the Minor Leagues," the skipper said. "It was nice for him to come through right there. It was big, it was huge. Getting hit by the pitch was huge, too. He had a good night back.
"It has got to continue. At least he gives us some threat in that lineup."
Arencibia, who had his contract purchased from Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday, had an up-and-down ride with the Blue Jays, who selected him in the first round of the 2007 First-Year Player Draft.
"This is where it all started for me," Arencibia said. "I have a lot of memories. This is home for me. It was home for me for a long time. I spent a lot of hours in this dome, in this city. It's different to come back but I'm excited to be back."
Arencibia became an instant fan favorite in Toronto after going 4-for-5 with two home runs in his Major League debut at Rogers Centre back in August 2010. His relationship with the fan base strengthened due to his active community work, but took a downward turn as a result of his struggling play in 2013 -- he hit .194 with a .227 on-base percentage -- and well-documented social media and radio spats with Toronto reporters.
The 28-year-old steered away from answering pregame questions about the rocky times leading up to his departure with the Blue Jays, choosing instead to focus on the positives.
"All the people that no one really knows about that make this thing go, that's what's most special for me, that when I walk through these hallways, all of them are excited for me to be back," Arencibia said. "I always wanted to treat everyone the way I wanted to be treated myself. There's a lot people I feel like I made a positive influence on, and if it's one person, I think you're doing a good job and I think I was able to do it to more than one."
Arencibia is back for his second stint with the Rangers after hitting .279/.320/.542 with 14 homers and 41 RBIs in Triple-A. With a logjam behind the plate -- the Rangers now have four catchers on the active roster -- the plan is for Arencibia to receive the majority of his playing time at first base.
The Florida native broke camp with the Rangers but was optioned to Triple-A in mid-May after hitting .133 with a .182 on-base percentage over 20 games and 66 plate appearances.

Studesville Joins Bills As Running Backs Coach [3:44 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'A native of Madison, WI, Studesville (pronounced �STEW-dus-vill�) spent the last three seasons coaching running backs with the New York Giants. He broke into the NFL coaching ranks with Chicago as the Bears quality control coach from 1997-2000. Prior to that, he worked in the collegiate ranks from 1991-96.'

Phillips and Williams both took the fall [1:16 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports: 'Williams did not get fired ... he merely wasn�t renewed. But even as his tenure fell apart, Williams declined to blame his assistants, particularly offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride whose stubborn, inflexible philosophy and play-calling did more than anything else to cost his boss the job.'
Mularkey names three assistants [8:51 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'April's reputation took a hit in St. Louis, where his units allowed 10 special teams touchdowns while scoring only one the last three seasons. He lost control of kickoff coverage (ranked 30th this season) in 2002, but he did oversee the punt coverage unit, which finished last this season (15.1 yards per return). His kickoff and punt returns finished in the middle of the pack.'
Mularkey connects with Bills fans [5:16 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: 'Although she did take Donahoe�s remark as an attack on fans, she said she doesn�t see Mularkey�s greeting as a makeup call. Rather, with her $390 season ticket bill coming in the mail soon, Babiarz said it�s simply a case of the team buttering her up, high-tech style. �I thought more that Tom Donahoe would make sure he was touching base with his season ticket holders as soon as possible to get them pumped, because that bill is coming next week, I know it is,� she said.'
Three Finalists Interview for Football Opening [5:15 AM]
Cornell Daily Sun reports: 'Gilbride, a 29-year coaching veteran, has spent the last 14 years in the pro ranks, including two seasons as a head coach and 11 others as an offensive coordinator. Known as one of the preeminent offensive minds in the game, Gilbride has spent the last two seasons as the offensive coordinator for the Buffalo Bills, which he led to offensive rankings of 11th and 30th in the 2002 and 2003 seasons, respectively. Prior to his stint in upstate New York, Gilbride served as the offensive coordinator for the Houston Oilers (1990-94), Jacksonville Jaguars (1995-96), and Pittsburgh Steelers (1999-00), where his teams were perennially ranked near the top of the league in passing offense.'
Inside slant [5:14 AM]
CBS Sportsline reports: '"There are some guys that you can't ask them to do things they aren't capable of," Mularkey said. "There are great schemes and ideas that go on across the league every Sunday, but if you don't have the personnel to do it, you're asking for failure. It starts with the quarterback but it's coordinated across the board. That's my philosophy with it."'
Strategy and personnel [5:13 AM]
CBS Sportsline reports: 'Gregg Williams could've saved his job and Kevin Gilbride's too had they given Henry the football eight to 10 more times a game.'
Notes, quotes, anecdotes [5:12 AM]
CBS Sportsline reports: 'The Bills are keeping close tabs on University of Pittsburgh WR Larry Fitzgerald eligibility ruling for the draft. They are in need of a talented wideout, and while they pick 13th, might consider doing whatever it takes to move up into the top 10 for a chance to grab Fitzgerald.'
Mike Mularkey talks to Channel 2 [5:11 AM]
WGRZ-TV reports: 'Many NFL head coaches are so consumed with their jobs they're known to sleep in the office and forget the name of the family pet. Mike Mularkey says he will not be one of them. He believes balance is the key to success, both on and off the field. He says he will be passionate about coaching the Bills, but says he will also always make time for his wife Betsy and two sons. Mularkey, however, does admit the hectic pace of his new job is consuming him right now.'
Things to get off my chest [10:12 PM]
HBO reports: And while we're at it, everyone is comparing the Philadelphia Eagles (losers of three consecutive NFC Championship games) to the Buffalo Bills.
Now, wait a minute. The Buffalo Bills won a ton of huge playoff games. They never lost a championship game in their house-much less two in a row. In fact, Jim Kelly was 9-1 at home in the postseason! As Philadelphia has found out, it is very difficult to reach one Super Bowl-never mind four in a row. Before anyone finds an easy way of comparing the Eagles failures with the Bills-check the facts. Those Bills defeated Dan Marino's Dolphins and Joe Montana's Chiefs and John Elway's Broncos in the postseason. They won AFC Championship games at home and on the road. They won them with offense, and they won them with defense. So, to Eagles players, fans, and media; enough already with the Bills bashing. Today's Eagles would be fortunate to have one Hall of Fame player like Bruce Smith, Andre Reed, Thurman Thomas, or Jim Kelly.
Bills hire April to coach special teams; retain LB coach Blackmon [5:05 PM]
AP reports: 'The Bills retained Don Blackmon as their linebackers coach. Blackmon completed his first season in Buffalo, coaching a revamped corps that featured two new starters -- Pro Bowl selection Takeo Spikes and Jeff Posey.'

Coaching Staffs Try Not to Go Overboard [4:10 PM]
ESPN reports: 'One of the most effective defensive game plans in championship contest history, the design with which the underdog New York Giants blunted the explosive Buffalo Bills attack for a one-point victory in Super Bowl XXV, was drawn up on the fly. Literally.'
Bobby Shaw, Mike Mularkey Reunited [2:08 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"He's a really good coach that will really get guys going and hopefully we can get that chemistry and get as far as we can next year and it'll be a tribute to a lot of people," Shaw said. "I'm surprised that he's had the success he's had the past three years and not gotten a head coaching job. But he's our coach now."'
Veteran named special-teams coach [2:07 PM]
ESPN reports: Bobby April, essentially fired by the Rams last week when St. Louis elected not to renew his contract after three years, has agreed to become Buffalo's special-teams coach, ESPN.com has learned.
Making a splash [5:16 AM]
Fort Lauderdale Sun Sentinel reports: '"He is a perfect fit for Buffalo," Egelsky said. "He is a blue-collar guy for a blue-collar town. The thing about him that you never forget is his competitiveness. I don't care whether it was football, basketball, cards or pool. He wanted to win, or he wanted to keep playing until he did. That's the mentality a coach has to have."'
Wheelers� Francis signs with NFL's Bills [5:15 AM]
Quad City Times reports: 'SteamWheelers head coach Rich Ingold introduced the Bills to Francis by calling Tom Donahoe, Ingold�s former high school head coach and now the general manager at Buffalo.'
Byner to coach Redskins' backs [5:14 AM]
Washington Times reports: 'It remained unclear whether defensive coordinator Gregg Williams would be able to reunite with Buffalo Bills defensive line coach Tim Krumrie. The Bills have been blocking Krumrie from speaking to Washington, but there was no official word on whether he would remain on Mike Mularkey's staff.'
Thoughts on recent coaching moves [5:13 AM]
Fox Sports reports: 'Mularkey also made a key hire in Jim McNally to coach the offensive linemen. The Bills have guys with intriguing tools along the offensive line, but they have been underachievers � most notably Mike Williams. McNally has a reputation of getting a lot from his blockers.'
Bills scouting Senior Bowl this week [9:03 PM]
WGRZ-TV reports: 'The Bills new head coach, Mike Mularkey, got his first job as an NFL coach by going to the Senior Bowl. One of his key assistants, offensive line coach Jim McNally, a graduate of Kenmore West, is spending this week in Mobile before coming to Western New York.'
Opening flop didn't stop run to Super Bowl [9:02 PM]
AP reports: 'Certainly, the setback must have motivated the Patriots. Some good must have come out of such a problem-filled opener. "Good?" coach Bill Belichick said. "No. No. No." In the four months since then, Buffalo faltered and missed the playoffs while the Patriots are 16-1.'
A Look Back At Mularkey's Playing Days [4:40 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"I think he�s going to be a great fit for Buffalo. As a guy who has covered the Steelers for the last 10 years, I�ve watched him as a tight ends coach and then as an offensive coordinator and he�s always had the look of a head coach. The way he sees the game, the way he teaches out there, the way he interacts with players and other coaches and with the media, he�s just got that thing. He just looks like a head coach."'
Westside [1:17 PM]
The Learning Channel reports: 'Buffalo Bills star Lawyer Milloy gets the custom treatment as his 2003 Hummer is torn apart and turned into a special-order masterpiece.'
Gibbs Still Trying to Lock In Top-Flight Assistants [10:52 AM]
Washington Post reports: The issue became moot last week when Buffalo's new coach, Mike Mularkey, chose to retain Gray as defensive coordinator. Gray intends to keep his defensive staff intact, meaning the Redskins will also lose out on two other Bills assistants: linebackers coach Don Blackmon and defensive line coach Tim Krumrie.
Bills have ways to go to catch Super teams [8:51 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'At any point Sunday, did you look at Weis, or at Carolina's head coach, John Fox and say, "They could have hired that guy?" Did you find yourself wondering if Tom Donahoe, the Bills' president and GM, really got the best man when he picked Mike Mularkey as his coach?'
Bills should follow in Panthers' pawsteps [5:16 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: 'In 2003, Carolina continued to improve while Buffalo regressed. The Panthers were 11-5, outgained opponents by 26.0 yards per game and outscored opponents by 21 points. They ranked 16th in offense and eighth on defense. The Bills finished 6-10, outgained opponents by 2.2 yards per game and were outscored by 36 points.'
Bills pick up Wheelers� Francis [5:15 AM]
Moline Dispatch reports: 'However, the 'Wheelers organization is celebrating that fact, with last season's af2 sackmaster set to sign today with the NFL's Buffalo Bills, and bound for an important pre-training camp in the spring developmental league, NFL Europe. Francis' agent, Martin Prince, confirmed Monday his client was in Buffalo, N.Y., for a physical. If he passes that, it would clear the way for Francis to sign a contract believed to be for the NFL's minimum salary, $230,000, according to the NFL Players Association Web site.'

If you are looking for the perfect little finishing touch to your crafty projects, then today's steal, the We R Memory Keepers Metal Hardware, could be just what you are looking for! I imagine it's pretty much the equivalent of what a handyman may feel walking in to a tool store when opening a tin of hardware made just for crafty fun!
To make the fact of such a fun steal even a little more exciting, today we have the ever-so-talented guest blogger Emily Lanham with us to show us just how the hardware can be used. I knew right after seeing her toilet paper roll mini album featured a few weeks back that she'd be the perfect one to ask to design for today. I think you'll agree with me that the wow factor is through the roof!
• • • • •
Hey everyone! My name is Emily Lanham and I am very excited to be a guest designer today for this ScrapbookSteals! When I was first asked to make something with this hardware, I was a little hesitant. Hardware is something that I don't normally use on my paper crafts. I am sure glad I didn't turn this one down! I had so much fun playing with this hardware and I really love that extra look that it added to my pieces.
I made a paper bag mini album as well as a matching recipe box. I used various pieces of the hardware on each project. I especially loved the little nameplates. I added glossy accents to them to make them look more dimensional. I wanted to achieve an overall rustic look for these pieces to go with the hardware.
• • • • •
Is this not the most incredible mini album? WOW! My jaw is seriously hanging on my keyboard. Thanks again Emily for taking the time to share your talents with us.
Be sure to check out Emily's blog for lots of further inspiration including a little more detail about today's steal.
Hope you have a super craft-tastical sort of day!. That's got to be a good one, right? :)

Pilot Survives Plane Crash at Lake Whitney State Park
AUSTIN, Texas — A small, single-engine private plane crashed and caught fire around 10:15 a.m. today near the public airfield inside Lake Whitney State Park. The sole occupant, the pilot, was transported in stable condition to Harris Methodist Hospital in Fort Worth.
The Texas Department of Public Safety is the lead authority investigating the accident and is in charge of the crash scene, assisted by the Hill County Sheriff's office and other agencies.
State Park Superintendent Jeffrey Towers said he saw the plane descending slowly and suspected trouble. Towers said within five minutes after the crash, he and other park employees were on the scene and found the pilot had walked away from the plane on his own.
The crash occurred in an undeveloped open pasture area in the central part of the 955-acre state park, about 300 yards east of the Lake Whitney State Park Airfield. Texas Parks and Wildlife Department operates the general aviation runway, which was there before the state park opened in 1964. TPWD allows private use of the 2,000-foot paved runway, charging standard state park entrance fees for its use. The plane crash caused a small grass fire, about a quarter-acre in size, although initial observations indicate the crash did not cause any major impact to state park resources.

Okay, it's time for me to give some props to this mold. I have bought a bunch of discs and enjoyed trying different long distance drivers. The 2 that I've settled on is the Roadrunner and the Sabre.
I probably own 12-15 different drivers and these 2 stand out for my style. I play on wooded courses (we all play on courses like these) and need straight drives 80% of the time with very little room for error. For practice i take all the drivers out in a field and practice on where I mark the 300 foot mark to give me perspective. The roadrunner is always the one disc i can throw the lowest (on a line) with NO left turn and the distance is about 10% longer than all the others after the perdictable skip at the end.
I am most consistent with this disc and it has now become my #1 driver over the XL, Sidewinder (not broken in yet), Cyclone, cyclone 2, valkryie, beast, Tee bird L (although this one is still in the running but a bit shorter).
The roadrunner's flight ratings show that it should go Right durning the high speed part of flight but evidently i'm not getting enough spin on it because it is straight as an arrow for me with no high speed turn or low speed fade. I'm loving this one.
I actually use my Sabre for slightly right turning shots between 250-280. The roadrunner is for 280-330. That's the furthest that i can throw right now and i've done it 3 times with the roadrunner. 3 times a week i try all those other discs but i can never get that extra distance from them. Actually I can throw the leopard just as long as all my other drivers but it goes right now that it is broken in.
this is the end of my ode to my roadrunner speach. Try one. They are great discs.

From victory comes extreme controversy
May 29 2008 09:27AM
Yeah yeah, Pens win 3–2. Crosby scores two, is declared Mayor of Pittsburgh. We get it.
But here's the thing that no one is going to want to talk about today, lambs. That wasn't Sidney Crosby who scored two goals last night. We don't know who it was, but according to the Pens website yesterday, Sidney Crosby was holding court in a clearly clean shaven manner. We even wrote about it, and it was agreed all around in the Nation that he is incapable of growing a decent beard.
So who was this bearded wonder scoring last night? The rat was back, and in full effect. We can't help but think it is one of the following scenarios:
- Sidney Crosby has been replaced with an alien—or possibly robot—clone. The Aliens—or possibly robot technicians from the future—didn't take the grooming changes Crosby made into account for their prototype.
- Mario Lemieux went back in time and kidnapped the Sidney Crosby of three weeks ago. You remember him—scoring, smiling, gross beard-wearing. Seeing that May 27 Crosby had significantly diminished skills, Lemieux went back to a time where Sid was still filled with confidence and poise and stole his golden boy.
- Losing the first two games in the SCF has caused Sidney Crosby to age so much, he is now capable of growing that rat beard in less than 24 hours. The series is really taking its toll on the star, who now has the body of a 40-year-old man.
- Drinking extremely large amounts of Gatorade has caused significant cellular damage to Sid the Kid, and coupled with an ability to see through time, he is also able to grow facial hair in an extremely patchy distribution, in a short amount of time.
Whatever the case, things are getting dangerous. Sidney Crosby clones, alien technicians, time travel? We can't WAIT for Game Four to get underway! Who knows who will show up?
We know one thing: if we lived in Pittsburgh, we'd be demanding a bone marrow sample from Crosby, and we would be sending it down to the boys in the lab to certify it's really him.
When I saw that last night, I actually thought about how wrong you were Wanye. But I knew it! I knew there was a reason hahaha
In reality Crosby was tied up in Mario's basement so Michel Terrien could bring in his secret weapon.
That was Haley Wickenheiser wearing Crosby's jersey last night...I recognize the beard from the Womens Gold Medal game during the last Olympics.
Rick - you brought Haley Wickenheiser's beard into the mix. You are our kind of guy.
Was it just me, or didn't Sid still have the teeny-bopper beard last night (Wed)? Was the May 27th pic photo-shopped? I smell controversy! Or perhaps you just can't see the growth in certain light...
...oops. Thought this was the old article. Sorry. I better start paying attention...
You guys forgot one possibility: hair transplant. Unfortunately for Sid it seems that unlike a skin transplant where you can take the skin from a region that is normally left unseen to the prying eyes of the public, taking a hair transplant from the same region does not produce a desirable outcome (see Shawn Horcoff circa june 2006).
Matt: You could be right, there have been many times I have achieved a similar look by not wearing shoes or socks. Stupid hairy big toe knuckle...
Yeah, that's gross...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Better Business Bureau of Northeast Florida is warning consumers about the local used car dealer and repair shop Motormaxx, which also does business as Ocean Auto Sales and Easy Auto Repair & Towing LLC.
According to the BBB Business Review gave this business an F rating. In the past three years, Motormaxx and its affiliated companies have been the subject of 36 complaints, with 25 of those having occurred in the past year.
Motormaxx has failed to respond to all 36 complaints processed by the BBB. The majority of the complaints allege problems with product or service, with secondary issues of billing or collection issues.
Easy Auto Repair and Towing LLC advertises free towing if repairs are performed at their shop without disclosing the diagnostic fees to the consumers up front. Complainants allege that repairs performed on vehicles are faulty or not performed at all.
Complainants also allege that Motormaxx/Ocean Auto Sales are selling used vehicles "as is" that are in desperate need of repairs. When consumers have confronted the company about the condition of the vehicles they have purchased, the company has not been helpful in offering a solution.
Channel 4 spoke with one of Motormaxx's customers Thursday night, who said she wasn't surprised to hear about the Better Business Bureau warning. Marsha Thomas told Channel 4 that the company actually took out a second title on her Buick.
"They said we owed them for towing and an estimate," said Thomas.
Thomas had originally brought her car to the auto repair shop for an estimate on a paint job for her car. She filed paperwork and was told a technician would get back to her. After a month with no response she got on the phone.
"I've asked them over and over again what do I need to do to? They said pay us $300 and we'll release your title," said Thomas.
Thomas said she still has her car, but can't get it repaired or even painted because Motormaxx holds the second title. Adding insult to injury, Thomas' car is now listed for sale on Motormaxx's website.
"I called them up and said 'How do you have my car for sale and you don't even have my car?' And the lady said 'well we can sell anything we want,'" said Thomas.
If you feel you have been a victim of this unethical business you can file a complaint with the BBB or you may wish to file a complaint with the Florida Office of Financial Regulation, which regulates their ability to issue loans on the vehicles and repairs.
Channel 4's Crime Analyst, Ken Jefferson, said the BBB warning about this car dealership should act as a reminder to consumers to do their homework and research a company before making a deal.
"They're not telling you not to buy, they're telling you here are the complaints, hear what the complaints are, these are the risks if you go to these places," said Jefferson.
"Don't ever put your VIN number down because that's where they got us. Because when they get your VIN number they can do whatever they want," said Thomas.
Alternately, you can also file a complaint with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, which issues licenses to sell vehicles.

That's fine by me, considering Destroyers tend to only come out flat (or vulcan-ized) as of recent. If its a good Destroyer with more glide and less fade, I'll probably make the switch.

If you don't want to mess with heating, just throw the disc in a big ziplock bag full of dye. Let it soak overnight if you aren't going to use heat. The heat method is much faster and more even, in my experience.
Doing this did not change the dome or flight characteristics for me.

Astronomy: Pakistan's New Future?
By Saadat Anwar Siddiqi
The year 2009 was the International Year of Astronomy (IYA) and hundreds of organizations worldwide celebrated mankind's understanding and unraveling of the universe. In Pakistan, these objectives were actively pursued by the Khwarizmi Science Society (KSS). The astrofests, or falakyati melas in Urdu, are the Society's latest initiative in popularizing science and bringing modern scientific knowledge to the remote and far flung areas of the country.
The KSS is one of Pakistan's most active grass-roots science associations, aimed at furthering a science culture in our educational institutions. Since 1997, the Society has maintained an impressive series of seminars, workshops, field visits, conferences, student orientations and panel discussions, all aimed at university and research students. APS members will be glad to know that physics has remained one of the most popular focus areas.
KSS Resource List
However, in our academia, there is also the strong appreciation that of all the Pakistani students entering university, it is extremely hard to find those who are adequately prepared and excited enough to undertake the rigors of advanced physics. Without doubt, a massive overhaul is required to transform the way science and physics is taught at the primary and secondary levels. One of the reasons is that the current approach is largely textbook-oriented with little emphasis on real scientific activity, if any at all.
Feeling the need for contributing to scientific outreach and science popularization at the level of the schools and the laity, the KSS decided to take part in the IYA. The idea was to make a roving observatory and use astronomy as a vehicle for promoting science education in distant and rural schools and showing students, and importantly, their teachers, that science can after all be made interesting and inspiring!
In our astronomy initiative, we chose to connect science with tradition and technology with socialization. In our incarnation of astrofests, the word mela, literally meaning a 'carnival' or a 'festival,' is a centuries' old tradition in the Indo-Pak subcontinent, where people of all ages flock and engage in festivities: sports, shopping, acrobatics, circuses, merry-go-rounds and emphatic recitations of folk songs and epics. These melas have stood the test of time and form long-awaited occasions of community gatherings. We believe that these concepts steeped in tradition and history can be used as a potent vehicle for the transmission of science.
For example, the live astronomical observation of the moon, Jupiter, Saturn and Venus triggered the biggest gathering in the District Public School and College, Okara in the Punjab province. More than two thousand men, women and children gathered in the evening at the school, that had been transformed into a festive carnival by the school authorities, first to listen to a popular lecture on the subject and then to observe the heavenly bodies, all in real time. The idea we use is very simple: connecting the scope's eyepiece to a high-resolution CCD camera and projecting the live view onto multimedia screens.
Let me share a few interesting experiences. While the astronomers aligned their telescopic gear, the witty headmaster of Okara's Public School, Mazhar Hussain, arranged an impromptu competition on poetic recitation relevant to the moon. In Urdu literature, the moon has remained a popular poetic icon and is used as a simile for the beloved. (However, viewing the lunar craters proved to be a complete surprise against the established literary notions!) The older generations were delighted as they were shown the various stellar constellations identified with their horoscopes. Finally, the magnificent rings of Saturn grabbed everyone's attention.
Similar melas have also been arranged in Lahore's Punjab University and at a large school in Phoolnagar, 70 km from the provincial capital. These events have attracted schoolchildren in the thousands and clearly, these are the country's biggest star parties.
Through the KSS outreach, I have concluded that the best way forward of bringing science, astronomy, and physics to the masses is making connections with the cultural and social contexts. For example, our wonderful resident astronomer, Umair Asim, freely uses the local vernacular in his demonstrations; the poetic recitations that have now become a common theme in the intermissions are also a great resource for attracting the masses who in most cases have refined tastes for poetry and music. We are now also aiming at producing small readable pamphlets for children and their parents. Furthermore, in remote areas where Internet and emails are almost non-existent, we use the local mosque loudspeaker for announcing the festivals.
I must mention that it is a real delight seeing parents, teachers, children, housewives and toddlers, all sitting together, with their jaws dropped, reveling in the magnificent views of lunar shadows, craters named after Arab scientists, the mythical Pleiades, the tilt of the Saturn rings and Jupiter's awe-inspiring moons. One does not find many opportunities where school fields are used as grounds for gathering families, teachers and children. Reputable schools send out invitations to nearby schools, so the melas also become a meeting point for the local educational administration.
Clearly, our spectators have never looked through a telescope before. I believe that these well-deserved moments of bliss can have a lasting impact, burning indelible impressions into their memories. This way, schoolchildren can be attracted to taking up careers in science, astronomy and physics, filling up the void of enthused and motivated physics students at the university level. I have seen many school children asking our team questions about careers in SUPARCO, Pakistan's space agency as well as the NASA.
The most recent thrust of the Society's melas is amalgamating science with history and architecture. Being a largely emotional and traditionalist society, Pakistanis show a deep sense of bonding with their past. In this spirit, the KSS decided to extend the outreach to architectural monuments, a program also resonating with the joint UNESCO and International Astronomical Union project on World Heritage.
On the 30th of May, there was a large gathering of local residents and tourists on the plateaus of the marvelous Rohtas Fort in District Jhelum. The fort, completed in 1547, is a blend of Indo-Afghan architecture and a declared World Heritage Site. One of the gates inside the Fort is the Suhail Gate, named after the star with the same Arabic name, (called Lambda Velorum in modern catalogues). Interestingly, there is a saintly derwish with the name Suhail Bukhari who is now buried at the gate, resonating with our nation's continuous blending of science with tradition.
The unhindered mixing of science and tradition could also be witnessed in news reports airing after the solar eclipse viewable from Pakistan on July 23. The event highlighted the many superstitions associated with the natural phenomenon such as protecting pregnant women from its evil influence or its propitious power in healing the disabled. However, the solar eclipse not only exposed the challenges but also presented for the first time a rare opportunity to educate the Pakistani society about science. I hope we can make full use of these opportunities.
These melas go hand in hand with the series of public lectures on astronomy we are organizing throughout the year. So far, the KSS has organized Dr. Pervez Hoodbhoys's lecture on multiple dimensions and Dr. Jameel-un-Nabi's exposition on stellar life cycles. These lectures are being followed by practical workshops on telescope making and backyard astronomy.
In the coming months, the Khwarizmi Science Society plans to continue its scientific festivities and the falakyati melas with greater vigor and keep on inciting the minds and hearts of future astronomers and physicists. You are welcome to help us in our efforts!

Retailers eagerly await opportunities to promote fresh cherries.
"Everybody is always excited about good cherry promotions," said David Stone, an owner of Valhalla Sales & Marketing Co., Kingsburg, Calif. "It's a really good item."
Unlike commodities such as grapes or stone fruit, cherries still are mostly a seasonal item and readily lend themselves to promotions.
"It's tougher to get cherries year-round," Stone said. "It's not an item people see every day in the store, so when they come out people love to buy cherries."
Cherries are one of the highest rings retailers will get all year, said Roger Pepperl, marketing director for Stemilt Growers LLC, Wenatchee, Wash., which has a large cherry program in California.
"We don't have a lot of trouble getting ads," he said.
Stemilt supports promotions with signs, point-of-sale materials and display bins.
The only problem promoting California cherries is that the season comes and goes so quickly.
"We usually find that the California deal is so fast and furious that by the time the shelves get filled, and you have Memorial Day, you're almost into (the Washington season)," Pepperl said.
The Flavor Tree Co. LLC, Hanford, Calif., the sales arm for Warmerdam Packing LLC, is looking forward to its first retail promotions for its proprietary cherries, said Maurice Cameron, president and global sales manager.
The company will start with its Sequoia variety.
This season will be the first time the company will conduct a chainwide promotion with a major retailer that will be devoted exclusively to proprietary cherries, he said.
"It's new ground for us and it's very exciting."
Memorial Day
Delta Packing Co. of Lodi Inc., Lodi, Calif., may conduct limited Mother's Day promotions this season, but general manager Paul Poutre said ads were looking good for Memorial Day, May 27.
The brooks and coral varieties should be coming off by early May and should be in good supply by Memorial Day, he said.
Later, as the tulare and bing varieties come on, volume might drop a bit, he said.
"If that happens, we'll pick and choose our ads," Poutre said.
Rivermaid Trading Co., Lodi, Calif., will work with its core customers to develop customized promotional programs for California cherries this season, said Mike Isola, salesman.
The company purchased Wes Pak Sales Inc., Dinuba, Calif., last summer and has absorbed that company's operation.
Rivermaid also handles sales for Farmington Fresh LLC, Stockton, Calif.
Social media push
Stemilt plans to support cherry promotions with an extensive social media campaign, Pepperl said.
The company plans to offer electronic digital downloads from a special Facebook page where the firm will share recipes with consumers, talk about ways to use cherries and conduct contests.
Stemilt expects to promote cherries on Pinterest and Twitter, as well, and change the face of its website to focus on cherries during the season.
The company also will work with bloggers to help spread the word about cherries.
"(The social media) community is getting pretty big for us," Pepperl said. "We're starting to get pretty big numbers every month."
Stemilt also plans some special programs for the late season.

Pietersen will join West Indies captain Darren Sammy and Australian veteran Brad Hodge at the Zouks who are coached by former England and Glamorgan batsman Matthew Maynard. The tournament begins in July and ends in August.
A tweet from the CPL read: "@SLUZouks have chosen Kevin Pieterson as their pick of the first Round ! Welcome to the Caribbean Kevin !"
Defending champions the Jamaica Tallawahs chose Andre Russell with their first pick while the Antigua Hawksbills chose Sheldon Cottrell, the Trinidad and Tobago Red Steel picked Darren Bravo, the Barbados Tridents went for Dwayne Smith and Mohammad Hafeez was chosen by the Guyana Amazon Warriors.
Pietersen's first round selection meant he was in the maximum 80,000 US dollars 'salary slab', setting his base earning at approximately £48,000.
Each of the six teams are allowed one West Indies franchise player and one International franchise player which were selected before the draft.
The teams then select 13 players each during the draft and add four local under-19s players to make up a final squad of 19.
Following his England axing after the winter's Ashes whitewash, Pietersen has been freed to pick and choose where he plays around the world.
Pietersen is already signed up to play, and captain, the Delhi Daredevils when the Indian Premier League begins later this month, while he is set to appear for Surrey in the newly-badged Twenty20 Blast in England.
A clause in his Surrey contract allowed Pietersen to accept an approach to play in the CPL, with some reports that he would be ready to commute between the Caribbean and England for matches.
Pietersen has stated that he would be available for Surrey whenever required, writing on Twitter: "I will be fulfilling ALL my @surreycricket commitments and just flying into the Caribbean to honour this opportunity..."
With the IPL to begin in the United Arab Emirates, before returning to India after the country's elections, Pietersen is set for a hectic jet-set lifestyle as he follows the domestic Twenty20 circuits.
"April - Dubai, May - India, June/July - London, Aug - Caribbean, Sept - London, Oct - Africa. Pretty chuffed with my summer!" he wrote on Twitter.
Ireland's Kevin O'Brien was selected in the sixth round by the Red Steel but former England players Simon Jones, Owais Shah and Dimitri Mascarenhas all went undrafted.

Ocean bugs infesting RI beaches
Beach-goers across Rhode Island are reporting an infestation of bug-like marine critters in the water from Westerly to Middletown that's making it difficult to go swimming.
State officials said the creatures are crustacean isopods, which are reddish brown, about a half-inch long and look like tiny shrimp.
Health officials say there are no known illnesses associated with the critters and they don't appear to bite, but people may want to shower after swimming because the isopods' hard shells and scaly legs may irritate the skin.
Officials say isopods occur naturally in salt water and hatch in algae, and it's not uncommon for them to appear in late July and August. They say the problem might be due to many days of little wind and low surf.

I am posting a link to the Spurs message board that has been referenced here a time or two because they have a thread discussing a report that suggest Karl Malone will be a spur. (The report is quoted and cited there, you have to be a member to read the article where it is cited).
If Malone goes to SA then I definately cement the Spurs at the top of my power rankings coming into the season (even if he isn't 100%). Would Duncan move to the 5 or would Malone be a short Brad Miller like 5 seeing as he was so effective at creating assists and rebounding in LA when he was healthy.
Also, do the Spurs ever make moves that hurt them? It seems like every year the Spurs improve.

We're nearly a month into summer and I've decided not to watch any more television re-runs or horrendous reality shows.

It's been a while since I've posted here, and I shouldn't make any promises that I'll start doing so again regularly, but every now and then something pops up that deserves more than 140 characters or a Facebook post.
I got a question via email today that I realized would be useful for lots of folks, and so decided I wanted to share it here as well. Enjoy.

The March release has been released and it definitely organizes the friends much better.
Read an update from Microsoft is working on the external hdd support. I worry that it will be something like only Microsoft Approved hdd. I have to imagine that they could not be dumb enough given the bad publicity they got leading up to the release they would do something like that. I hope I can just got to Frys and buy like a 4 TB hdd for a few hundred bucks and be set for a long time.
Definitely excited for Titanfall.

New plans could see Torfaen ex-mining site redeveloped
10:11am Friday 6th July 2012
10:11am Friday 6th July 2012
NEW plans could see a former colliery site in Torfaen redeveloped after lying derelict for 30 years.
The site, known as the British, at Talywain covers 1,300 acre (526 hectares) and has seen many failed regeneration bids since mining and iron working ceased there.
The proposal would make the brownfield site safe by removing existing hazards including mines and voids, treating contaminated ground and solving drainage problems.
On the 17th July, Torfaen s Cabinet will be asked to allow talks to continue with the Welsh Government and HSBC bank on a joint venture which could secure the reclamation scheme.
Cllr Bob Wellington, leader of Torfaen council, said: "The British is the largest remaining site of industrial dereliction in South East Wales and the inability of the private sector to secure its development has been demonstrated since 2004."
He added: "Our proposal to HSBC demonstrates that an arrangement with the public sector has the potential to give the bank a fair return on its investment and achieve the council s aim to regenerate the area and reclaim the site for the community.

One is to just go completely flat and not trade at all. That's really only an option if you are a short-term trader.

Community campaigners have rallied round to organise a major fundraiser to support the family of tragic toddler Riley Turner.
The four-year-old died at his home in Harewood Road, Bracken Bank, last month.
Now a Keighley pub – the Royal Oak at Damside – is hosting a fundraising evening, with backing from the town's Jam Radio.
Paddy Gaskin, assistant manager at the Royal Oak, said: "One of our regulars is a close friend of Riley's family and we were all totally shocked at what happened.
"We want to raise as much money as we can, either to help with the funeral costs or for a trust fund for Riley's twin brother Kenzie."
The event, from 6pm on February 17, features Jam Radio presenter and DJ, Phil Hickinson, plus live bands.
There will be an auction, with lots including signed football shirts and Keighley Cougars season tickets.
Among shirts going under the hammer will be one worn by ex-Scotland international and current Motherwell boss Stuart McCall during his days with Bradford City in its Premier League spell.
A raffle will include prizes such as hampers, and items can be left at the pub. A pool contest will also take place, and a cold buffet will be served. Admission is free, but there will be buckets for donations.
Sharon Cooper, a presenter and community involvement volunteer at Jam Radio, said: "I live in Keighley and the whole community has been affected in some way by what happened to Riley. We just wanted to give something, and everybody is doing this out of the goodness of their hearts."
* Anwar Rosser, 32, of Harewood Road, charged with Riley's murder, has been remanded in custody to appear before Bradford Crown Court in April. An inquest into Riley's death will be opened today.

I used to think it was the red uniforms, but I now know it's actually the movement of the Bulls players.
So this is the D Rose suck off,eh? Unbelieveable
Lance needs to get untracked. He, PG, and several others need to get that we are a team. Not going to win it all trying do go to solo.
I'd rather die standing up than live on my knees.
-Emiliano Zapata
Outside of a few, Lance's FGA have been good for the most part. He's just off. Plus the bulls are definitely focusing on him, which is something he hasn't experienced so far this year
Ugh. Not fun. A few too many threes.
Lance and West...
The game has no rhythm whatsoever either with some of these weird calls and no-calls (for and against both teams).
"Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better." - Albert Camus
"Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well." - Voltaire
"Everyone's values are defined by what they will tolerate when it is done to others." - William Greider
Thank goodness the game is on FSMW.
2 of our top 6 players are out. That makes a big difference. Not much you can change till they come back.
While we struggled on the glass some, the defense has mostly been there.. Thankful we aren't down 15 right now. A painful quarter of basketball, especially on offense, but we have been solid in the 2nd half this season.. Must say I'm actually looking forward to the next half
Who is the blond in the background?
The Bulls are like the Wisconsin Badgers- they play good defense and their style of play limits offensive possessions. Their ball movement and half court offense are very good and they always seem to hit the big shots down the stretch.
You have to be very disciplined to beat Chicago and the Pacers are not a very disciplined team.
Of course, it's ESPN.
The good news is that we are on pace to hit 18 turnovers again!
No, I thought Scola was the new Tyler. After all, Luis has 2 assists in 80-some minutes of play this season.
Just kidding. I know that 1 Luis = multiple Tylers.
Lol at that Russel Westbrook jacket. Now I know who buys the stuff those models wear
what is SAT?
Well Copeland is sitting because of coach decision
@WhatTheFFacts: Studies show that sarcasm enhances the ability of the human mind to solve complex problems!
Currently at the game, this is as few bulls fans I've seen at BLF in a long time.
And those were def SAT chants from Area 55
We need to get a big lead before the bench comes back in deep in the 2nd half
Refs took over that quarter to the point of a game that started the same time as ours is nearly halfway through the 3rd quarter.
I wish we could just play paul 48 minutes a game.
"We've got to be very clear about this. We don't want our players hanging around with murderers," said Larry Bird, Pacers president.
The Pacers charter flight has just landed at O'Hare. It has been reported that they should be able to make the arena in time for the second half.
More news at 10:00.
Edit: Too bad we showed up at the wrong arena.
Who are these imposters?

Yeah, it didn't sound like a lot on TV. I would imagine that the early weeknight (6 CST) start time has a lot to do with it. One of the games they invaded last year was on a Sunday.
