Supply and Demand – Green Revolution
An interesting thing is happening here at Eco Brooklyn. It seems our mission of radical green building without compromise has tapped into something that people really resonate with.
This week it dawned on me as my phone was ringing off the hook that there are two forces pulling on Eco Brooklyn.
On one side we are inundated by passionate and skilled green workers looking for work they can believe in. And on the other side we are equally inundated by Brooklyn homeowners excited to hire us for green renovations.
Both sides say the same thing: What you are doing is so amazing and we want to be part of it.
It is a great thing to be in the middle of such energy. It is a little overwhelming and certainly keeps us busy.
But most of all it is awe inspiring to see that all of us involved have a chance to do what is right, without sacrifice, without compromise and without resistance.
While it seems everyone around us is moaning about compromise on their jobs because the client doesn't want to be as green as they should, or that the green jobs are not to be found, we are booked solid.
Why? I think because we went balls out, all or nothing, black or white. We are very clear with our clients and ourselves: if it isn't 100% green then we walk away. Period. No negotiations, no watering down, no second best.
And instead of clients being turned off they welcome the strong stand. "Finally a company that walks the talk", they say.
Lets be clear: green is about putting the planet first. Money, power, success, security – everything else comes second. If a client can't deal with that then they shouldn't be renovating in the first place. If a green builder can't deal with that then they will smell like greenwashing from a mile away.
The green building revolution is so powerful because it does what all other revolutions failed to do: it brings humanity together without polarity. In the green movement there are no winners or loosers, us vs. them, good vs. bad. There is only the urgent need to stop screwing up as a race and get back on track to global ecological harmony. Or die.
The green revolution is doing what the hippies of the 60's thought they were doing until they realized the vast majority of the world had no plans to become hippies and join them.
In this case though we are all on board. From corporate headquarters to grass roots gardens we all see the same urgency to turn the world into a more verdant place, to clean it up, to stop the damage, and to finally do something.
And it is great being in the green building industry. Leading the way here in Brooklyn it is really easy to feel green. Construction is so wasteful, especially NY construction where money is thrown around, so green building is really easy!
It is good to be such a central player in this revolution because it means we can help guide its direction, with the knowledge that ultimately we were just in the right place at the right time and are simply here to enjoy the ride.

I'll buy one and never use it, only if AmRen gets a cut.
I think there's enormous potential for a long list of names for colors in this line that will make it relevant to the suburban kids looking for an authentic ghetto experience, in much the same way that the makeup industry has a thousand names for "red" –
"Baby Momma Black"
"Police Brutality"
"Section 8"
"Das Raciss Red"
"Malt Liquor Lime"
"37 Year Old Grandma", etc.
They've already thought of that-
Ghetto Crayola Colors
That was nasty. And those people wonder why others don't respect them.
On a side note, I just logged in to my youtube account to watch the video after numerous warning about adult content.
Youtube is now prompting me to use my real name so my friends and everyone can know who I am.
This data mining is out of control. They're trying to build personality profiles of everyone.
I can envision the day when you're picked up for a crime and your entire online history is brought up in court.
They're going to have to say "anything you say or post on line can and will be used against you in a court of law".
Big Brother is watching and recording your key strokes.
Google "Big Brother's Digital House of Mirrors." It's an article about the internet and government surveillance by Jim Goad. It goes into a lot of what you mentioned. Sadly, we are becoming the United Surveillance States of America.

State and local law enforcement groups want wireless providers to store detailed information about your SMS messages for at least two years — in case they're needed for future criminal investigations.
Speaking of data mining. Three times in the last two days, charges to my debit card were rejected. There was a small amount charged to my card in the amount of $2.53. I called my bank. Sure enough a Chinese web site had gotten my bank card number and fraudulently charged against it. I filed a fraud complaint with the officer. I can tell when something is up,as I type and the letters don't appear immediately. This happened this week. Heads up the web site is pgvin.com. The charge came from Mayanmar or something like it .Couldn't understand the country name, but the characters appear to be chinese. Watch out for your accounts! Keep your account balanced daily.
I figured I had a minute to kill, so I watched these two Shakespeares. I see this all day in the City. Same stuff, different day. Everybody wants to 'out thug' the other low-life, and whomever 'wins' gets the most street cred.
However, I did lose 22 IQ points in a minute and 14 seconds. I could've put that time to better use – like stabbing myself in the eye with an ice pick…
"Same Salad, Different Dressing" -Red Lobster 1991…

I have just watched this youtube filth. One view of this "ghetto" grime is enough. Switched on my British television – perfume advert comes on with a mixed-race group "dancing" and then in affectionate contact, with one of the scantily dressed white girls sitting across a nearly naked black youth's lap face-front and lustfully caressing his bare torso. Soon on screen a dancing competition with several black-white partners. We now have a new TV teenage "soap" making a similar point. It never stops. "It is no accident" (Trotsky).
Trotsky? As in Lev Bronstein? The guy who ended up in Mexico City with an ice axe in his skull? Go figure.
That's the one, paisan. His killer, Stalin agent Ramon Mercado, served 20 years in a Mexican prison.
Talk about multiculturalism – a Mexican was used by a Georgian to kill a Jew.
Mercader was a Spanish communist who fled to Mexico after the reds lost the Spanish Civil War.
I'll stick with Almay and Physicians Formula. They make cosmetic lines pre-selected to flatter green eyes–which is encouraging to me, because I've noticed that Women of Colored Eyes are becoming rare. When the cosmetic counter only carries color palates for brown eyes, I know that store is hostile to White women. Same as when I can't find a pair of jeans in tall or long inseam, but can find petite and average in every size–that tells me that long-limbed Nordics are not welcome.
Green is the most rare eye color on earth. I do not have a hard time finding make up to complement green eyes and fair skin, but I live in a white neighborhood. What I do find disconcerting is that at my local big box store all the poster-sized advertisements, especially in the makeup department, are of black and brown women. Most of the customers are white, and the make up selection caters to white customers. It makes no sense to me to have a giant poster of a dark black woman hovering just above the base make up that runs from Classic Ivory to Beige Bisque.
Of course I can always shop elsewhere, and many times I do.
I honestly didn't know green eyes were rare. That makes me feel proud of my bright green eyes, however, I'll always be jealous of my mother's neon green eyes that will catch anyone's attention, even across a crowded room. Mine aren't quite THAT bright, but close.
Yes, only 1% – 2% of the global population has green eyes. I always thought blue eyes were less common than green, but that is because green eyes run in my family, so they didn't seem so rare to me. Both of my kids have inherited my green eyes. My daughter's are a very striking lighter green, almost a sea green. The reason they are so rare is that it's not simply melanin in the eye, or pigmentation of the iris, but an interaction of genes and other variants. I read about it years ago, but can't remember where. I wish I had a link for you. It's a very interesting subject.
I`m a 1%er!!. Just checked my license to see if I was hazel or green. it said green… Do women like them as much as men do?!?…
YES. Girls — especially non-White girls, Asian girls in particular — fall all over my 19-year old green-eyed son. He says they constantly mention his green eyes…
I tell him they're coveting his White genes — the ones for high intelligence, blond hair, green eyes, creativity, wonderful sense of humor, curiosity…What the vast majority of non-Whites do not have in their gene pool.
We are rarae aves.
And, most importantly, our lineage is dying out.
Green eyes run in my family too, so I didn't think they were all that extraordinary until I moved away from the Midwest, and out to Phoenix.
My best friend also has green eyes–she's from German stock like I am. I've been wondering for a while if green eyes is a Germanic trait. I briefly dated a half-Filipino, half-German guy, who is appears to be White with blonde hair and green eyes, but who rocks the AA quotas by having Hispanic and Asian heritage. Aside from not having anything really in common with the guy, I was worried about having a quadroon accident who didn't look anything like me. So I broke it off with him.
I want kids, but I don't want them badly enough to miscegenate.
Green eyes are a Germanic trait. Although rare, they are more often found in people of Celtic and Germanic stock. Brown eyes are dominant, and blue eyes are recessive, green eyes are a combination of genes and variants that line up, and I'm paraphrasing here, that have taken on some melanin, without succumbing to the dominance of brown eyes, and resisted the recession of blue eyes. It's kind of like winning the eye lottery. Two emeralds. Of course scientists would rightly say it's a mutation, and it is, but then when I think of the word 'mutation' I think of an extra ear or some odd thing like that. If you're going to be be blessed with a mutation, be grateful it's two (and not three) green eyes.
Congratulations for your bravery and loyalty to your race!!! May you live long and prosper!!!
Thanks for letting me know I'm special (green eyes).
I live on the east side of Phoenix, where the White population is being smothered by mestizo. Finding make-up and clothing that fits is getting more difficult, as stores stop carrying products for people like me, and emphasize products for the brown-eyed and squat women from down Mexico way.
And you are correct about non-White models selling cosmetics; when I worked at the "Blue Devil", the Health & Beauty department was a major offender. Even though I was working in a 90% White area, where the winters are so long that the population starts to take on an ivory-like hue by March, most of the models were mocha.
Glad you jumped off the Rainbow Train, Ang'. It's a one-way ride to heartbreak. The reason you gave was sufficient-that CAN and DOES happen. As for the local merchants.. in my part of N. California, "vibrant diversity" love is off the charts. It isn't the big chains-which are limited in their presence here by the fanatical NIMBY enviros, it's the small businesses here that have embraced the NWO with gusto. The climate here for white workers is disgraceful. I have reached the stage where I only patronize five local businesses-all family or employee-owned with nearly all native white English-speakers on staff.
There's nearly nothing I cannot get more cheaply and with better service online. I know many bristle at the thought of doing most of their buying, or even some of it, online, but I'll be damned if I'm going to augment the locals and their lifestyles and bank balances when as a worker, I have been abused repeatedly and been shown the door when I became to "expensive" to keep around. With local opportunities drying up, I have had to live almost exclusively on what I can make online. It's difficult at first, and there's no guarantee that I'll ever replace my former wages in the "real" (ha ha!) world, but the potential is there, and I am sure that in time the number of folks going off radar will be legion. There really isn't any other alternative, as I see it. Let the local merchants slag you off..they'll regret it soon enough when their losses begin to catch up with the bottom line. And may that be sooner than later.
BED, I do almost all my non-food shopping online – I save on state sales taxes that way, which can be considerable.
I hate having to go into shoe stores looking for a pair of shoes, and have some high-pressure salesman try to sell me the store and fixtures.
I depends were you live.Green is very common amongst Russian girls and seems to me more common than blue.The most brilliant emerald green eyes I have ever seen were on a Spanish girl(Catalan)
Green eyes are actually the most common in Hungary(land of the Hun) and Turkey. They appear to occur more where people of different backgrounds have mixed.
That's very interesting. I'm also tall and long-limbed (arms and legs) and have trouble finding clothes that fit properly. I look a lot like my mother, with her lily-white skin, jet black hair and light blue eyes, and I just don't see that many young people today with this combination of physical characteristics. I guess we really are a dying breed.
The coloring you describe makes me think of the actor Tom Hiddleston, who plays Loki in Thor and the Avengers movie. I know a lot of women who think he's way cuter than Chris Hemsworth, who plays Thor.
Just more defining deviance down…
Urban Decay is for the children of Rich White People, ages 12-16
Truth in advertising.
A lof of cosmetics now have these cheesy titles just to sell more. It makes them seem more exotic to the consumer. Instead of saying just boring old red, they'll say something like "sizzling redhot" or something. Just advertising.
Some history. Urban Decay's original palette for lipstick, nail polish and eyeshadow totally emphasized the macabre and weird. They had various shades of fungus green and morbid grays and blacks with names like "Mold", "Mildew", and "Frostbite" which latter was a quite realistic shiny blue-black. The inventor/founder was one of the very few female electrical engineers and tech CEOs of the time (was co-founder of Cisco). I think her color choices emanated from feminist sensibilities plus the edginess and aggressiveness of the electronics world.
The competitors are merely following her lead.
This indicates how far down the scale female taste has gone. Some women who uses these cosmetics look bizarre. A few even like to appear corpse-like.
Urban decay sounds like nostalgia for the 1970's, when post-war ecomomies were flat-lining, and the flight to the suburbs was all but complete.
The 'urban ghetto' still carries a mythical cachet for whites who don't get enough subversion in their lives. It was a staple image in Warhol-esque MTV culture, associating gritty sexuality with the liberalized multi-racial downtown.
It's pure fantasy for pampered whites.
I saw the most unusual thing while working out at the club tonight on one of those unavoidable
big screens hanging from the ceiling: a
shampoo commercial with all white women in it. Four different models,
all white. Such a rarity these days. I guess someone in the marketing
department slipped up.
looks like hooker make-up to me
Maybe I'm dumb, but I don't get the message. This is some make-up collection. So what ?
This is my opinion on makeup, and what I told my daughter:
Makeup is like salt. It is meant to enhance the beauty that is already there and not to mask it.
Young people do silly things, wear odd clothes, strange makeup and hair colors. This too shall pass.
Their webpage says their product is dangerous, so why would anybody buy it?
So where are "Gibs me dat Green" and "Obama Fone Orange" or "Food Stamp Fuscia"?
Urban Decay cosmetics: brought to us by the same folks who gave the world "Death Row Records".
What's next? a "Cesspool" clothing line, or maybe "Concentration Camp" furniture?

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) -- Oclaro Inc. has completed its acquisition of Opnext Inc. in an all-stock deal, the optical communication companies announced Tuesday.
The companies announced the deal in March, which they said will create a leader in the fast-growing optical components and modules market. They will also work together to create laser diodes. Their products are used for everything from transmission on fiber optic networks to lasers for medical equipment.
Under the deal, Opnext shareholders will receive 0.42 shares of Oclaro common stock for every share of Opnext stock they own. With about 91 million shares of Opnext outstanding, Opnext shareholders qualified to get about 38 million Oclara shares worth almost $88 million as on the close on Monday. Opnext is based in Fremont, Calif.
The combined company will operate under the Oclaro name.
"Our vision is that the power and speed of light will change the way we live and work," Alain Couder, chairman and CEO of Oclaro, said in a statement. "Through this merger, we have assembled the optical technologies, products and expertise at the heart of this new world of innovation."
The companies had about $833 million in combined revenues for the fiscal year that ended July 2, 2011 and 3,200 employees worldwide.
Shares of San Jose, Calif.-based Oclaro jumped 31 cents, or 13.4 percent, to $2.62 in trading Tuesday.

This undated image made available in May 2013 shows a stem cell colony developed from cloned human embryos. Scientists have finally recovered stem cells from cloned human embryos, a longstanding goal that could lead to new treatments for such illnesses as Parkinson's disease and diabetes. In the Wednesday, May 15, 2013 edition of the journal Cell, scientists at the Oregon Health & Science University report harvesting stem cells from six embryos. Shoukhrat Mitalipov, who led the research, said the success came not from a single technical innovation, but from revising a series of steps in the process.

The flowers advertised on the website are nothing like the flowers you receive. I ordered a bouquet for Mothers day and when I received them half of the hydrangeas had dropped off, the roses were green and the arrangement was bent out of shape. For £40 you would expect flowers of decent quality however I felt embarrassed giving them to my mother. The customer service is APPALLING. Like many others it is so difficult getting through to their telephone service, I am still yet to receive a reply. As for emailing them again no reply. The customer service is shocking, flowers are overpriced and poor quality. NEVER AGAIN.

Phish just wrapped up their three night Halloween Run (Review) at Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall, and one of the most memorable moments saw legendary actor Abe Vigoda make an appearance during one of Phish's many new songs, 'Wombat'. As soon as their new song mentioned Abe Vigoda, as an inside joke most likely, a performer in a large wombat suit appeared on stage and broke into dance, along with a few other dancers. After the song, Trey invited the performers on stage, except with Vigoda in the wombat suit, without its helmet, implying that it was the actor himself doing the dancing.
Abe Vigoda made a name for himself in the 70s with memorable roles in The Godfather and Barney Miller, but has more recently become a pop culture icon since surviving several death hoaxes. The actor called into WGNTV in Chicago to talk about his recent experiences with Phish,
"Halloween night…it was a lot of fun…it was just wonderful. I was told it was 38,000 people in this auditorium, and so I had a very lovely time. At my age, yet! Could you imagine?"
Even at 92, the actor is still churning out random works, as he explains,
"Yes, I've been busy….I've been busy one way or another. Out of left field, people do call from different areas such as this one. I find myself busy with interesting projects."
Watch the Full Interview With Abe Vigoda Here!
Phish also recently released the full length video of their performance of 'Wombat' on Halloween, which you can see below.

Review of the Year 2012 - The club enjoyed a successful year with a host of silverware being brought back to Bray.
In May, our Senior hurlers won the Division 3 Leinster League title by defeating fellow Wicklow side Carnew Emmets in Dr. Cullen Park, Carlow.
However, the same opponents sent us crashing out of the county championship at the semi-final stage but hopefully a county final appearance isn't too far away for this group of players.
The Junior hurlers claimed the county championship trophy in November by just edging out near neighbours Eire Og Greystones in a keenly contested final with the usual blend of youth and experience providing the backbone of the team!
A hat-trick of hurling titles was secured when our Minor hurlers bounced back from a controversial drawn county final to emerge victorious against old rivals Glenealy in the replay.Under the guidance of former Kerry player, Stephen Stack, the Senior footballers made huge progress after a disappointing 2011 and can count themselves unlucky not to have reached the county final, losing to Baltinglass after a replay in the semi-final.
Similarly, our Minor Footballers lost out at the same stage but the players can look back with pride on their achievements this year.
However, there was no hard luck story for our Junior footballers, who recovered from a poor league campaign, to end the season as county champions after a faultless performance in the final against Blessington played in Aughrim in October.
The juvenile section of the club also enjoyed a number of highlights throughout the year.
The U-16 girls won their camogie final and football Shield final while their counterparts in hurling also claimed championship honours.
The U-12 hurling squad secured a county title and Division 3 honours in Dublin, the U-12 girls won their football Shield final and the U-14 camogie team performed superbly to reach the Division 4 Feile final.
While not all of our underage teams may have won a trophy this year, our players have shown plenty of promise and we look forward to their achievements in 2013.Away from the action on the pitch, the club once again hosted a very successful Kick Fada competition in September and the event is now becoming an important date on the national GAA calendar.
We also ran a number of innovative programmes like the 'Mum and Me' camogie training sessions for our members and such activities will continue to be run in the New Year.
Our renovated clubhouse was also officially reopened this year and we now boast facilities that would be the envy of any club in Ireland. 2012 has been a fantastic year for everyone involved with Bray Emmets and let's hope 2013 is as good!Mailing list - The club notes are also circulated every week by e-mail. To be included on this mailing list, please send your details to email@example.com and we will be happy to include you in future correspondence. Páidí Ó Sé R.I.P. - GAA fans around the country were saddened by the recent passing of Kerry legend Páidí Ó Sé.
Our Senior football manager for 2012, Stephen Stack, arranged for Páidí to come to Bray to speak to the team earlier in the year and it was hardly surprising when the Ventry great delivered an inspiring and motivating talk, one of many he had made throughout his career.
He left quite an impression on the players who appreciated the opportunity to talk to one of the icons of modern football. Bray Emmets GAA club extend our deepest sympathy to the Ó Sé family. Ar dheis dé go raibh a anam.

The Eddie Farrell Memorial Cup took place in Newcastle on December 29 in Healy Farrell Park.
The Newcastle Homeboys took on the Newcastle Exiles and what a match.
The game started with mixed fortunes for the Homeboys. They were first on the scoreboard with a good goal from Colman Kelly but then they lost captain Robbie O'Gara to injury. Luckily there was an eager young sub on the line who came on and gave Redser a torrid time!
Gradually the Exiles took command with a series of well taken points and some silken skills from Shane Doyle and with Mick Neary minding the net.
The deciding score came from the foot of Ben Doyle who took a ball into his chest and found the net with a low hard strike. There were three penalties saved and the game finished Homeboys 1-4, Exiles 1-7.
The presentations for players of the year took place later that evening in the Castle Inn.
Players choice for player of the year went to Shane McGee, while the manager's choice went to Christian 'Kicky' Mulligan. "This award was well deserved and long overdue," declared Kicky modestly.
Belated congratulations to Gretta Wheatley who recently won the Newcastle GAA jackpot of €9,000.
Finally we wish all friends and supporters of Newcastle GAA club a very happy new year!

Just wondering how you got along at The california show? Did you get the raspberry off your deers nose ? :-)
Return to The Taxidermy Industry Category Menu
Jeanette did very good, she got a Blue ribbon on he Whitetail Buck.
Way to go
I know that deer had your anxiety level quite high. Hope you feel better now with a job well done. Oh yeah, just return the paxil sample I sent to you!(LOL) Peace- Jeff F.
I just got home from the show. I had a blast! I was pretty worried about entering the open for the first time, but I found that it wasn't so bad. I recieved a blue on my FHW buck (90) and a red on my doe (88)-I was so close! My other wt buck I recieved a second and on all 3 deer the nosepad was the MAIN problem. I am going to be redoing them as I will be taking these mounts with me to the Idaho show in a couple of months. My pig head suffered many faults and I got a 3rd place on her. I went for a radical turn that is just not possible in a real hog. I did not know that sows couldn't turn their heads that much, so my mount was not up to Todd Kranau's standards. I will be mounting another hog for the ID show, and I will not be doing a radical turn on it. I will write more on the show tomorrow. I need to unpack and get some rest.
I will hold on to the Paxil until the shows are over!
Way to go! =)
I see you've already become a veteran of questioning judges. LMAO. I love it.
But, since I don't know Todd, I have to defend the standards as not exactly HIS but Nature's. A hog really CAN'T turn it's head very far because of it's jowls and anatomy. They actually spin around when they need to turn their heads.

Soga Chokuan, (died after 1610, Sakai?, Japan), Japanese painter who specialized in bird-and-flower pictures and founded the Soga family of artists. He is especially noted as a painter of fowl (as his son Chokuan II was noted as a painter of falcons). His brightly coloured, realistic bird-and-flower screen paintings are in the Hōki Temple on Mount Kōya, the Daitoku Temple in Kyōto, and the Tokyo National Museum. He also did Chinese-style, or suiboku ("water-ink"), paintings executed rapidly with a stiff brush on screens, such as "The Four Grayhairs and Three Laughers" (Henjōkō Temple, Mount Kōya).

Celebrated our five-year anniversary at Cosmos this past weekend. I've only had cocktails at the bar, but the space remains pristine. Very easy on the eyes.
I went with the chef's five-course prix-fixe. Wife assembled her own from the tasting portions offered on the menu.
My wife is pregnant, so the waiter swapped up her amuse (tuna tartare with foraged mushrooms... yikes). She loved her play on a ranch salad. I like a bit more kick from an amuse. Reminded me of a poke appetizer.
First course for me was a deconstructed soft-shell crab sandwich. Everything was solid. The marinated tomato led to the disc of bread, which blended nicely with the aioli (which itself was an exercise in restraint... too many aiolis taste like miracle whip). It seemed to be missing salt. More on that later.
Wife had a beet salad. She always orders beet salads, and usually gives me a bite. No dice.
Second course. For me: Rabbit Risotto. For her: Pad Thai
Loved the risotto. Perfectly cooked, nicely chewy, set against a moat of sweet vinaigrette. The rabbit confit was seamlessly integrated.
The pad thai was actually quite good. The noodles were al dente, and the chef was a bit more forthright with the tomato action (literally halved cherry tomatoes). Herbs carried the flavor rather than sugar. Not sticky at all. Maybe this can be an upscale dish.
Third course: For me: Snapper over black-eyed peas w/truffle oil. For her: Spicy basil shrimp
Mine tasted like halibut, but I'm quite awful at identifying fish. Either way, this was the weakest dish of the night for me. Legumes gobble truffle oil the way an overcooked steak eats salt. Everything was a bit dry here, and I wanted a flavor to carry the day.
On the shrimp, my wife noted that it was a marked improvement over the shrimp she had at the Oceanaire. Yep. Very well done.
Mezze tasting: An experiment in molecular gastronomy w/citrus (I cannot comprehend the details). Essentially, the contents of an ersatz gelee (or, if you played 8-bit role playing games as a kid, a jelly) literally explode in your mouth. So much fun. You could tell when the other tables hit this point. I haven't had an experience quite like it. And they say the palate cleanser is dead.
Fourth course: For me: Pork belly. For her: The deconstructed crab dealio
The pork belly preparation was flawless. I cannot remember what else was on the dish. It doesn't matter. If you love pork belly, you owe it to yourself to eat this stuff.
My wife's crab sandwich included a strip of intensely smoked bacon, which had been omitted from my dish. Oh, so it's a play on BLT. That makes much more sense. Other than that, we both agreed the dish was tasty.
Dessert course: For Me: Panna Cotta. For her: Chocolate 47 (or so) ways
I've never met a panna cotta I've enjoyed. It usually tastes like flan: pure sugar; the texture of snails. Oh, so it can be done well. This preparation was surrounded with foam (another thing I typically loathe) but also a carmelized crisp.
The balance of textures was fantastic. It was like a fried ice cream float. Instead of being curdled and nasty, the panna cotta was rich and luxuriant.
Wife largely fended me off from her dessert (I still have the prong marks... Do not challenge a pregnant lady for her sesame crisp), but it reminded me of the dessert boards at V-44 and Travail, but with a bit more focus.
At the end of the meal, we were made aware that the chef (formerly of D'Amico Cucina) had taken over the reigns that very week. At minimum, I'd call this a seamless transition. If he can improve upon what he has going, Cosmos has some special things in its future.

By Camellia Khalvati, Guest BloggerDecember 4, 2015
I turn 23 next week, so I thought it'd be appropriate to think of the many lessons I've learned over the years and share a few with you.
Through the hundreds of hurdles I've cleared, tripped over, or just run away from, I present you my..
"23 Lessons from my 23 Years."
(in no significant order)
- Treat others the way THEY want to be treated.
- Through all the highs and the lows, stay in the middle to avoid the exhaustion that comes with the rise and fall.
- If you think tomatoes are awesome and your friend doesn't agree, it doesn't make them any less awesome. Don't let anyone yuck your yum.
- When the student is ready, the teacher appears.
- The lives of strangers matter just as much as the lives of those you love.
- When feelings of envy arise, try celebrating the person and see them as inspiration.
- The more self discipline you practice, the more freedom you welcome into your life.
- Swap snoozing the alarm clock for a moment to set your intentions for the day.
- Do your best, then detach yourself from situations you don't have any control over.
- What comes easy won't last, what lasts won't come easy. Except for love.
- Invest in experiences; invest in other people; invest in yourself.
- Make a budget, follow the budget and don't complain.
- In moments of stress, write EVERYTHING down so your brain can take a break. Then blast music and dance your heart out.
- OWN your dance moves, no matter how goofy or off-beat. They are FABULOUS.
- Take time to evaluate your feelings before pointing a finger at someone else.
- Plan for spontaneity. That's right, plan ahead so you have the flexibility in your schedule to run off for the weekend!
- Back up all your devices on a regular basis. I mean like everyday.
- Always make excuses to celebrate! Every bit of growth deserves a party.
- Don't compromise your beliefs and values just to please other people.
- Make sure the words you choose to express yourself with don't hurt others.
- When you move backwards in life, it only means you're about to launch forward.
- Don't wait until it's too late to start appreciating your blessings.
- Seekers are finders. So dream on, sister!
Let's Chat!
What are three lessons you've learned in the last year? Tell us about it below!

I'm delighted to announce that my season review book "James Allen on F1 2010 – Five Rivals, One Champion" will be published on November 29th.
But as from today you can pre-order your copy by clicking on THIS LINK or on the front cover icon to the right.
The book is large format paperback, 248 pages with 8 pages of colour photos and costs just £9.99. All copies ordered through the JA on F1 website will be signed by me and sent out on November 29th. We are printing a limited number so it's wise to order sooner rather than later. We sold out last year.
The book is a collection of the best posts from the season, plus plenty of new material. Having listened carefully to readers' comments on last year's book, I've added a lot more retrospective material, to provide a more rounded picture of the season.
Once again the photography is by Darren Heath, F1's premier photographer.
It's been a fascinating season and the JA on F1 2010 book shows the arc of the key stories of the year, from the feud between Webber and Vettel, to the Ferrari team orders row, the struggles of the new teams and the troubled comeback of Michael Schumacher.
There is plenty of thoughtful analysis on all areas of the sport, including the contrasting approach of Red Bull, McLaren and Ferrari to prioritising drivers, a red hot topic at the moment as the season reaches its climax.
And readers will find plenty of behind the scenes colour on the everyday soap opera of life in F1.
Can't wait to have it James!
Will there be an audio version?
Excellent, I will order this in time for Christmas (gulp!).
When you say 'new content' how much can you say is new?
Publishing so soon after the end of the season you must have written alternative endings by now. Any chance we'll see the unused ones afterwards as a feature on your blog? I'd like to see a "Seb gave way to Mark to keep Alonso out of the title" story, even if it was totally imaginary.
The mathematical chance that Lewis has is actualy better than one would think.
Here's my scenario
Red Bull are leading and being hounded by Alonso. The two red bulls take each other out and now with Alonso being chased by Lewis.
Alonso's engine can't take it any more and blows up in a cloud of white smoke.
Lewis with a big grin on his face, wins the race and the drivers Championship
If both Bulls get out, Alonso would nurse his engine till the end of the race. It will be enough for him to finish tenth!!
Ahh, I would also like Seb to run a Vettel on Mark's car on the first corner... 😉
Here's wishing...
Haha that is a brilliant idea! Unfortunately I somehow doubt that alternative endings have really been written: surely it is more effort and complicated to write 5 alternate ending, all of which might be completely untrue, than to simply write one immediately after the event!
¿Will it be translated to Spanish?
quality, can't wait to read this! is it paperback or hardback james?
Just ordered! A copy for me and a copy for my dad.
Looking forward to it arriving.
I'm surprised how good the price is, only 9.99. Ordered!
Looks great James.
Will I be able to buy it for my e-reader?
Good news!
Do you know if it will be dispatched to shops in Australia, as it might be quicker/cheaper to wait for that rather than paying delivery costs?
do you send copies outside europe ?
I heard that among the new rules for next year the ballast use will be somehow limited. Can you tell us more please
Damn, thought I was first! Looking forward to another good read, James. Are you planning any books on particular drivers, teams or era's in the sport?
Any chance of a Kindle version?
Agreed, also interested in a Kindle edition
At least a third sale via Kindle if it's available!
Ah was wondering when the book would be out. Loved last years, I best get ordering!
Great front cover photo from Darren.
I tried to preorder the book but my country, URUGUAY is not in the popup list!
Sara from grandprixlegends.com contacted me and solved the 'missing country issue' in a few hours. Great customer support, I already preordered.
Ordering the book - but I would love that photo on the cover as a poster - who owns the rights to it/where can I find it?
must have!
Brilliant James. Once again you're underselling yourself though 😉
9.99 is a bargain!
Great stuff. Have you already written your champions section? I bet you have 😉
excellent news ....
incidentally, with there be a reprint of your 2009 book any time?
"The book is a collection of the best posts from the season"... Oh! So do we get commission on that James? 😉 Of course, I jest... it's your posts that you refer to, NOT the rubbish we post in response.
Y'know, I so wish you'd chosen the picture with Button doing rabbit ears 🙂 But good luck with the release!
James, will this include the WDC result and its analysis?
Post number 1
post numbers 2 to 300000001 to follow shortly...can I have my book now ?
So who ends up winning then?
Great news - just ordered my copy and can't wait for it to arrive! It's a long time until Bahrain 2011 and I need an F1 fix to keep me going until then.
Bit more effort with the signature though this year please, James... 😉
£9.99.......! Bargain at half the price - Last years book was superb James, and this years I expect no less.
Well done and thanks for makes F1 more accessable this year to the fans.
Of course it would be a bargain at half the price - that would be £5! 😉
There's a colleague of yours who says that Maldonado's deal is done. It remains to be seen who among the Williams drivers will be dumped.
I think that Williams wants to keep the Hulk and are using Barrichello to put pressure on Hulk for a 5 year deal with 15 Millions exit clause.
I look forward to seeing the really small typeface in the last few pages if lots of unexpected and noteworthy things happen in the last race... considering how you've already announced the number of pages 😉
done, going to have a nice collection over the next couple of years!
Looking forward to it James, so much has happened in a season that will be talked about for a very long time to come.
Top 10 get a free copy?! Tsh! It's quality not quantity! ;).
Only joking. This website is superb and the level of debate in the comments section is by far the most intelligent debate I have come across on the various F1 blogs which exist. Far too many of them descend into slanging matches.
James, you do a great job here and I can't praise highly enough the standard of the articles you write and the content in them.
Last year's book was a great read, I bought it from the website and thankyou for signing it. I will also be buying this years as soon as I get home from work today. I look forward to it. A quick word for Darren Heath as well - his photography is stunning.
Keep up the good work James.
That's right. I have never seen more intelligent guys elsewhere and the knowledge they have is very high.
If anyone is going to disrupt this healthy debate, I say dont allow them to post the comment again forever.
By the way, Congrats to James on the book.
I remember buying James "Michaeal Schumacher: Edge of greatness" and I read is 8 times so far from front to back
Ordered!. Is it possible to buy a copy of the 2009 edition?
Can't wait for next weekend!! Almost sleepless!!
Hello James,
I'm from Brazil and I have your first book which is really great. I had no problem ordering it.
However, I proceeded to pre-order the 2010 edition and sadly my country does not show on the countries' list.
How can I order it again?
On a side note, if you ever need a translator to release your book in Brazil, contact me. I'd be glad to help this book see print in Brazil!
This has been an exciting season, albeit through mistakes as much as skill; not, as a certain gimlet may have you believe, of a revised points system!
I didn't get last years' book because I wasn't so sure if the season warranted it. When I realised Brawn's unique achievement wouldn't be repeated, it had sold out.
Won't be making that mistake again.
havent been on this website enough this year to be honest. going to order the book regardless. looks very good. all the best
James, if you've already written the ending, could you please reveal who wins the WDC this weekend?
No Terry, he said he is going to finalize it on Monday. It is a waste of time to write alternative endings...
A clumsy joke on my part, Veeru. Enjoy the finale!
Many thanks James - 2 copies ordered. I shall look forward to reading it over christmas as will my father in law (yes malcolm this is one of your pressies!)
Just read some comments from Lewis Hamilton saying of he can't win the wdc he'd like mark webber to win it.
I bet mclaren would love to skupper Ferrari and one side of the redbull garage!
I just wish it was the weekend. It is going to be brilliant.
Looks cool. Or, you could have called it "4 Champions, One Rivalry..."
Problem is in a way youmight struggle to have a happy ending to this season for your book, I feel more controversy comming our way (as this surley is a big part of the 2010 season)
1. If Vettel wins it are we going to be talking about how RB blew up Mark's engine from the pitwall just after Alonso's wheel came off cause red bull would ever only let vettel win it.
2. If Webber wins surely its because Vettel let him through and he only wins it through team orders eventhough they had sworn on their lives they would not.
3. If Alonso wins it its just because either the two RB drivers could not get out of eachother's hairs and thus the worst result ever by a car that is so dominant or he ends up winning with a 2nd place and is accused of winning due to teamorders.
My predicted ending is that Hamilton won it after Vettel took himself and Alsonso out at the first corner, while Mausschnitzel got so angry about this he accidently blew that big red button on the pitwall Horner told him not to touch (you know the one that puts young pretty germans before old stuborn Australians by "accident")
Will you ship to the U.S.A.?
I would love to have one!
After reading gerhard bergers comments recently I started to recall some of the practical jokes gr pulled on ayrton over the years.
I'm sure you have heard most of them, but I thought it would make a great book that fans would love.
One of my favourites is the story about Berger and alesi "borrowing" a lancia delta integrale from outside the offices at maranello and trashing it around the test track. Legend has it that alesi was driving and Berger was on the hand brake. I believe they parked it on it's roof, and it was Jean todts.
Any idea if that is true? I wouldn't be surprised with gerhard involved.
What's Your favourite story or Annecdote on practical jokers/bad behaviour.
I have ordered 2 copies, as I managed to 'convert' a neighbour of mine over here in Canada from Nascar. He is just amazed now with F1 and he will be very surprised to see your Book under his Xmas Tree.....
Tis sure has been one hell of a season and it is not quite over just yet, maybe one more sting in the tail to come.
Keep up the fantastic work James.
Any special foreword in this years book James? Nice touch getting Ross for last years.
Will definately order this book, just have to wait until I'm home because my creditcard is not with me right now.
Shipping would have to take place to Costa Rica or to friends in The Netherlands that can bring the book for me.
James, you have fans all over the world ;).
James, typical off topic coment.
Some people have texted before about an interesting issue: to know the origin of your readers split by countries. I seem to remember a comment of yours saying that some 60% of your readers are non-UK based, could this figure be right? Are you including in the book some data regarding this point?
Hmmm Webber is looking like a champion in that picture James. The book is published on my birthday, how could i not order a copy! 😀
Offtopic here - any chance you could invite Darren Heath to write a guest article on the blog about his experiences this year, the gear he shoots with and some of his favourite pics of the year?
Can't believe the season is over this weekend. Hoping Webber or Vetell win in fair and square. This brilliant season deserves not to be remembered for a "team orders" World Drivers Champion.
Any reason why you didn't hold off the print run until after the last race to get an end of season comment in the book?
Ive ordered my copy, have throughly enjoyed all the views and news on this website, im very pleased i found it. a fantastic insight into the world of f1.
Enjoyed last year's book James. Thanks
Hi James, will you be doing a public book signing like you did last year?
Fantastic! I enjoyed last years' and looking forward to this year.
James, you're living proof of journalism paying in the Internet age; Rupert Murdoch should be offering you a job considering the struggles he's having with his online strategy.
Purchased, thanks for great coverage once again and the fan forum earlier this year James, great stuff!
I was going to order the book and then when I found out postage to Australia was almost the same as the book I thought again and then read the comments on your book post I then thought again and have ordered one and now I thinking about ordering another for a present. The book is so cheap for what it is, thanks. As a Mark Webber fanatic I am hoping the final chapter on Sunday will involve a Mark Webber Pole and authentic win which he is capable of.
Love your work and your site James. Thanks for quality F1 articles.
I won't rule out a Webber victory but a Webber pole is very unlikely.
This has got to be the most comprehensive website of F1.
I found the site about half way through the season, and it has gone straight to the top of my bookmarks!
BTW,We miss you on tv commentary!
ha, i am very happy. My second book from JA. Love it !
Can't wait to have it too James!!
Thanks a lot for your work.
My son is a bigger f1 fan than me, I think I will buy it for him and read it when he has finished it.
James what a season, I hope next year will be just as exciting.
I am really interested in who will partner Kubica at renault next year,I feel he needs a Team Mate to push him before we can say he is the next big thing.
I guess it's Vitali Petrov. Putin tested a Renault in Russia. There's a Russian GP in 2014 and Renault (which is no longer Renault) has a Russian sponsor and above all needs money so without the slightest clue, I'm sure Petrov will be there next year.
Book ordered,...but I thought it rather expensive when the postage to Australia was included,...however, I am sure it will be worth the cost.
Any chance of you returning to commentating James?, ....would be good if you did.
Cheers, Ken
I have been waiting just so I can order an xmas gift for myself that I know I will really like and want.
Thanks for the insightful commentary...
LOL. I just sent it out to my family and said, in case you are looking for ideas for my small christmas presents 😉
Who wrote the book? The typeset on the cover is too small.
Just a quickie, Nathan in post#4 asked how much is new content?
Last years book was a good read despite the fact that I had read it all here during the year, but then again if it's good enough for Clarkson . . . .
Cant beleive it ! Never read a book in my life but i still oredered this one.
I am a huge schumy fan and i want to read more about his struggled comeback.
Also this season has seen some intereting episodes with the top 4 teams.
I am sure it will be a good read. Looking forward to it !!
Thanks James.
I hope you have covered all five contenders equally with no bias, giving credit where its due!
Thanks James. Looking forward to it.
Just preordered it!
This is actually the first F1 book I have ever bought, and considering how great this blog is there's no doubt this book will be a fantastic read.
ordered with pleasure!
One is travelling for Croatia.
Just ordered it.
Only i can't understand why are shipping costs so high.
100 km from here and difference is 4 pounds...
Lokking forward to receving it...
Hi James, Hope it is ok I have posted a link on our forum telling our members about your book.
Just ordered it and I'm really looking forward to this, it's a great idea. I love the this site and the way you go about things. I've also enjoyed your editorials for one HD (TV Channel in Australia). Keep it up I'm loving it!
Hello James,
I'm from Brazil and I have your first book which is really great. I had no problem ordering it.
However, I proceeded to pre-order the 2010 edition and sadly my country does not show on the countries' list.
How can I order it again?
On a side note, if you ever need a translator to release your book in Brazil, contact me. I'd be glad to help this book see print in Brazil!
Yeah, shame on me. I opened your blog this morning even before I checked my mail and it was already sorted.
Already ordered!
Thanks James! Roll on Abu Dhabi!
Looks like it will be a great read...
I'm interested to know if you had any thoughts on if/how Jenson's season has been compromised by the situation with his race engineers illness since Canada? At this point he seemed to be right on Lewis' pace, whereas since then there more often than not been few tenths between them ?
After last years debacle where I made so many hints to my girlfriend (now fiancee so she is forgiven) that I wanted JA book - imagine my incandescent rage on Christmas morning when I unwrapped my presents to find - socks-ties-jumpers-and a raft of other extremely useful stuff and a mixture of toys but no JA book.
This year im getting it for myself...
Hi James,
Is it shipped within GB/EU only?
I'd love to get it but couldn't order with delivery to Moscow (Ru).
May i please know if these will be available in the Philippines or anywhere in Southeast Asia?
James, hi.
I pre-ordered the book yesterday but have no email confirmation yet. Will you be able to check it?
Order Ref. No. is 303309
Will you be able to check if the order has gone through? A posting at the same time was never picked up either.
Pre-ordered my book! Cannot wait to get reading it, I will have another read through last years book just to refresh my memory!
May I make a special request?!
You and Martin Brundle must do a book today, I think you worked really well together, with his racing background knowledge and your over-all knowledge of the sport. I'm sure their would be plenty of interesting stories between the two of you!
The pre-order link has been subtly emailed to my other half. Hopefully father christmas will be leaving it as a stocking filler. 🙂
I ordered it but I'm in the US. Wouldn't the postage be different for sending it over the Atlantic?
It's been this year that I discovered this site and it's been a nice addition to races and a great insight into F1. Thanks a lot :).
What's more this is going to be my first book about F1 :).
And I was just wondering - what one has to do to get the authograph of the author in the book ;-)?
Will there be a movie ?
Maybe with Sylvester Stallone playing the part of Mark Webber :-/
Will there be a movie ?
Maybe with Sylvester Stallone playing the part of Mark Webber :-/
Sign me up.
Ordered this year's book, will sit nicely alongside last year's, before we know it we will all be ordering next year's. 2010 has flown by so quickly, what a fantastic F1 season.
Have read this website everyday, Thanks James.
James, if you had the chance to go back and write about another Formula One Season in terms of your book format. What year would it be?
Ok, i ordered!
I'm in Canada and it's costing me a FORTUNE!!
Better be good! and definitely a feedback will do! 🙂
thank you!
Ordered, I await with anticipation. Il take this opportunity James to thank you for providing this website, I think this is by far the best F1 website out there. Your insight and stories into our quite hard to follow sometimes sport, are superb.
hi there James, is this the first year you publish this kind of book? sorrry for my lack of knowledge, but i started following your blog this year. btw, just ordered the book two minutes ago!!!
hello James,
will the events of last Winter* also be included in this book? Or does the book start with the Bahrain race?
* Jenson's sudden departure from Brawn, Schumacher's shock return, the Mercedes Brawn merger, the race of the new teams getting ready for Bahrain and the demise of USF1. What a hot Winter it was.
And it looks like this Winter will be no exception with the ongoing yet confusing Lotus feud: Group Lotus is trying to rewrite the history books. Historically, Group Lotus and Proton have nothing to do with Team Lotus. Bring on the black/gold cars!
Hi James, will this book be available through Amazon again? I have some gift vouchers to use up and this will do very nicely!
Hi James. Your book is very very interesting. I`ve got this book 2 days ago and I`m already on the chapter 5.
But why you put only a few pictures and all in a middle of the book ? Is this a matter of costs ?

I often watch that fight, its a cracker, so is the first. I wish i was there for it, the tension and energy in the room must have been immense with punchers like those two about to square off. McClellan might have been the most vicious fighter ive ever seen, i love the clip when he hears he is number ~2 p4p (by someone's ranking anyway) and he simply replies with a cold glare in his eye and a stern tone "who's number one!?" as if he is offended by the very notion that there is a better fighter out there
His left hook to the body was a rib wrecker
Shame his career/life went the way it did (That clown of a cornerman he had should take a lot of the blame) he Should have been one of the GREATS
Anybody watch "The Fight Of Their Lives" the other month? Very sad but excellent piece on Nigel Benn and Gerald

Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z Trailer: Revenge Gets a Release Date
Subscribe to 95.7 KEZJ on
We've been waiting to see more of Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z since it was announced, and this latest trailer certainly doesn't disappoint in showing more gameplay footage. It's the rest of the content that's a major let down.
Yaiba centers around a protagonist of the same name. He's a ninja soldier who was killed by Ryu Hayabusa during one of the Ninja Gaiden games, and has been rebuilt like the Six Million Dollar Man. He's faster, stronger and has some new abilities thanks to cybernetic attachments like his arm and eye. The cel shaded style looks impressive, and the action on display in the footage above looks appropriately brutal and bloody.
Unfortunately, the writing leaves a lot to be desired. Yaiba frequently treats his female handler like garbage, at points referring to her as "sugar tits," and asking if his cybernetic eye can see through her clothes. It's all very Dostoyevsky. There's even a great moment when a massive billboard of a woman's spread legs has a truck drive right into the sweet spot. Thirteen year-olds around the world will certainly find plenty to laugh at. The rest of us? Not so much.
It's a shame the amazing presentation had to be dragged down by such sophomoric writing. Perhaps this trailer isn't indicative of the final product's narrative or characterization, but we're not going to hold out hope that's true. Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z will be out on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on March 6, 2014.

Cheers! David Cameron overrules World Cup pub 'ban' for late England matches
ENGLAND and Aston Villa fan David Cameron has overruled the Home Office and told it to think again about banning pubs from staying open late during the World Cup.
I have ordered a rethink on pub opening times for England's World Cup games - will consult with pub trade, police and councils.
The Prime Minister stepped in after pubs were refused permission to extend opening hours for England's clash against Italy on June 14, which kicks off in Brazil at 11pm UK time.
In a message on Twitter, Mr Cameron said: "I have ordered a rethink on pub opening times for England's World Cup games - will consult with pub trade, police and councils."
Home Office minister Norman Baker turned down a proposal from the British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA) asking for an extension of licensing times across the country.
Pubs were being expected to apply individually for temporary licences to remain open after 11pm to show games, a process that would have cost a total of £738,000.
The BBPA, which represents England's 49,400 pubs, believes the extended opening times could be worth an additional £20 million to the industry in drink and food sales.
England's remaining two group-stage games will be played at more convenient times for pubs, with the June 19 clash with Uruguay scheduled for 8pm UK time and the potentially decisive match against Costa Rica at 5pm on June 24.
If Roy Hodgson's team make it past the group stage, all the remaining fixtures they could be involved in will kick off at 9pm UK time, apart from the final, which will be played at 8pm on July 13 in Rio de Janeiro.

CIRCA rods are a technologically advanced collection of slow action rods that will appeal to the angler with a slower, more deliberate casting tempo, while realizing a fast recovery, accuracy and overall high performance.
Using Konnetic technology, the CIRCA collection has more carbon fibres packed into a smaller diameter blank, resulting in a radically narrow taper throughout the length of the rod. This results in a consistently slow, yet responsive action from butt to tip.
The casts are methodically smooth and graceful, yet crisp and purposeful. Sensitivity gives the angler precision for the control needed for delicate presentations and is said to be the ideal rod for matching the hatch style fisheries and conditions.

GW Men's Hoops Edged Late in 80-73 Loss to Youngstown State
Armwood, Garino Combine for 31 Points in Debuts for Colonials
Nov. 10, 2012
Box Score | Box Score | Photo Gallery | RaiseHigh.tv coverage: Highlights | Post-Game | Full Game Replay
COACH LONERGAN POST-GAME vs. YOUNGSTOWN STATE
WASHINGTON - Senior Isaiah Armwood debuted with an alley-oop dunk in the opening seconds, then tied it at 71-71 with a slam with 58 seconds to play, but Youngstown State responded with a three-point point and pulled away late as George Washington men's basketball suffered an 80-73 setback in its season opener at the Charles E. Smith Center on Saturday.
The loss is just GW's 30th in 99 all-time season-opening games (69-30) and only its second in the past eight seasons.
Five newcomers debuted for GW (0-1) with Armwood scoring a team-high 18 points on 5-of-8 shooting and 8-of-12 free throws in his first game with the Buff and Blue. Freshman Patricio Garino keyed a second-half rally and finished with 13 points, seven rebounds, two assists and two steals in his first outing.
A seasoned Youngstown State (1-0) team with its top three scorers returning got a 19-point, 11-rebound double-double from freshman Bobby Hain. Senior Blake Allen made four three-pointers and matched Hain's game-high 19 points, while DJ Cole added 12, senior Damian Eargle scored 11 and Shawn Amiker chipped in 10. The Colonials managed to limit YSU senior Kendrick Perry, the leading scorer in the Horizon League last season, to just three points and 0-of-9 shooting from the field, but the Penguins relied on their balanced offense with five players in double figures.
Senior Lasan Kromah secured the opening tip and lobbed to Armwood for a season-opening alley-oop jam that brought the 2,198 fans in Smith Center to their feet. GW used that momentum to maintain a lead throughout much of the first half, capped by an Armwood three-point play that made it 28-23 with 6:03 left in the period.
However, Youngstown State went on a 20-4 run from that point, with Hain scoring 11 of his 19 points during the spurt, to surge to a 43-32 advantage at halftime.
The Colonials slowly worked their way back into the game and returned to within a possession of the lead at 52-50 on Kromah's controlled drive and reverse layup at the 11:40 mark. GW stayed within two possessions of YSU through to the final minutes.
With 2:40 to play, Allen drained his final triple of the game to give the Penguins a 71-65 lead. GW freshman Joe McDonald answered with a three-point play on a baseline reverse layin, sophomore John Kopriva made a free throw, then Kromah drove and dished to Armwood for a two-handed throwdown to draw even at 71-71 with 58 seconds left.
On the next possession though, Eargle converted a three-point play off an offensive rebound and YSU made 6-of-8 free throws down the stretch to produce the 80-73 final.
Both teams made 11-of-24 shots (45.8 percent) in the second half, as YSU's 14-of-33 effort (42.4 percent) from the field and 12-of-17 performance (70.6 percent) at the line was a key factor in putting GW in a double-digit deficit. The Colonials shot just 36.4 percent (12-of-33) from the field and went to the stripe just seven times in the opening 20 minutes.
GW will take a week to prepare for its first road game of the 2012-13 season at Boston University on Saturday, Nov. 17. The game will be played at BU's Case Gym at 1:00 p.m., and will air locally on Comcast SportsNet, as well as NESN, and be broadcast on 1050 AM, FederalNewsRadio.com and RaiseHigh.tv.
The university's Boston Alumni Club is sponsoring a pre-game brunch at 11:00 a.m., in the Faculty Dining Room in the George Sherman Union (775 Commonwealth Avenue), just a short walk from Case Gym (285 Babcock Street). The brunch will feature remarks on the future of GW Athletics with Patrick Nero, director of athletics and recreation. The event is open to the entire GW community including alumni, parents, and friends of GW. Click here to register.

Puzzle the Past
As genealogists we spend many hours unpuzzling the past of our ancestors. Maybe we should spend some time puzzling it!
A great way to share the past with the next generation of family historians is to create picture puzzles of ancestor photos. One tool that can do this is a web site called PuzzleTouch.
The next screen asks you to upload a photo. This is a picture of my grandmother when she was a little girl in Largo, New Mexico. The family lovingly refers to her as the "Largo Kid".
The next screen asks you how many pieces you want in the puzzle. You can choose 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, or 60. So that it would be easier for younger children, I chose 12. In less than a minute, the puzzle is created and uploaded to the Puzzle Touch server. A unique web address is created for your puzzle that you can send to others in an e-mail or post to Facebook, a blog, or family website.
When you click the link, you see the puzzle picture in the top left side.
You can view the puzzle full screen, zoom the work area in our out, auto solve the puzzle, see a picture hint, or save the game for later. As soon as you see the puzzle pieces, a timer starts. You can click, rotate, and drag each piece to put it in place.
Go ahead and give it a try. Puzzle your own past!

MADRID, March 13 (UPI) -- Spanish prosecutors in Madrid are hearing testimony from witnesses in an investigation into baby-trafficking during and after the Franco era.
Hundreds of Spanish families have already come forward in the last month claiming the theft of their babies, Think Spain reported.
One witness said the day after giving birth to a healthy girl, the hospital told her husband the baby had died and gave him a death certificate without an official stamp.
She remains convinced her baby was "sold like a piece of furniture," she said.
Many prosecutors in Seville said they were unable investigate such cases given the time that had elapsed and the institutions involved no longer exist.
In Malaga, police said their investigations failed to uncover any evidence of an organized baby-trafficking ring.
However, prosecutors throughout Spain have been instructed by the government to keep all cases involving suspected theft of children open.

New Awning Leading to Soda Shop
Hi! We just had our new awning, which covers the walkway from the Spa to the Soda Shop, installed and it looks so nice! It is a very natural sort of dark beige color that really suits our new look that we are moving towards. Instead of featuring a lot of teal we are going to a natural look throughout the property with more neutral colors. In fact, I am happy to report that we just ordered new lounge chairs for the beach that have the same tones. To me the color reminds me of sand……which is definitely in keeping with the idea that our guests and members choose Lago Mar because they have a love for the beach! I will let you know when the chairs actually arrive….sometime real soon…Deb
