Last season the Knicks were 1-1 against the Jazz. In their only post-Melo trade meeting, the Knicks dominated the Jazz 131-109 at the Garden. Tonight, Jeremy Lin will make his first career start coming off his unbelievable 25 point performance against New Jersey Saturday night. Unfortunately, Amar'e Stoudemire suffered a tragic loss this morning when his older brother, Hazell, was killed in an early morning car accident. Stoudemire has taken an indefinite leave of absence and will not play tonight.
Here is what to watch for:
- Linsanity! The asian-sensation, Mr Shao-Lin himself, Jeremy Lin will make his first career start tonight. Iman Shumpert will come off the bench for the Knicks. It will be interesting to see what Lin can do tonight against a stout Jazz defense. Unlike the lowly Nets, the Jazz boast a strong defensive front court featuring center Al Jefferson and power forward Paul Millsap. Check Dan L's latest post at Knicksfan.net for more details.
- It is absolutely tragic what happened to Amar'e Stoudemire's brother, Hazell, this morning. I understand, as should all of you, that basketball is secondary to life. While not perfect timing for the Knicks, I believe Amar'e should take all the time he needs to mourn with his family and he should come back when he is ready to play. That being said, this is a basketball blog and so we will discuss basketball. Stoudemire's absence will greatly hinder the Knicks tonight against one of the best front courts in the NBA. Jared Jeffries will start in his place. The Knicks need other players not named Carmelo Anthony to score tonight in order to make up for Stoudemire not being there. I think we could see some of Jerome Jordan tonight. The 7 foot Jordan gives the Knicks a far better chance of slowing down Utah than would going small with Renaldo Balkman playing the 4.
- Something that hasn't been talked about, but lets pay attention to Melo's conditioning. I think his conditioning has been off the past couple games as he was ineffective in the 4th quarters against Chicago and Boston and he was ineffective the entire 3rd game against the Nets. It will be interesting to see how he plays tonight now that he has had a day off to rest. CJ Miles, Gordon Hayward and Josh Howard are good players but they cannot hang with Melo. Maybe Raja Bell may draw the assignment of trying to guard Melo but I don't like his chances either.
- Tyson Chandler vs Al Jefferson. A great defensive center against a quality offensive center. This should be a fun matchup. Chandler has played up to his contract this season and has played well against good centers. Most notably is when Chandler kept Dwight Howard from doing much in the MLK day game at the garden versus Orlando. I am interested to see what kind of defensive job Chandler can do against Al Jefferson, who averages 18.5 ppg and 9.2 rpg. In order for the Knicks to win, Chandler will also need to score 15-20 points.
- Utah's bench vs Knicks bench. Oh boy… With Stoudemire out, the Knick bench will need to step up tonight. We know the effort Shumpert will get but it is unknown what the Knicks will get out of Walker, Balkman and maybe Jerome Jordan. Lets see what Jordan can do against some very good competition in Al Jefferson. The Knicks need to get a good showing out of their bench tonight or else they'll be in trouble.

The focus of the second keynote presentation at the Club Industry 2007 Conference and Exhibition has shifted from medical wellness to sustainability. Phillip Mills, CEO of Les Mills, will be the keynote speaker at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 12, at the McCormick Place Convention Center in Chicago, according to Zari Stahl, show director for Club Industry 2007.
Dr. Mike Nichols, CEO and founder of TempusClinic, was originally scheduled to deliver the second keynote address but had to cancel for personal reasons.
Mills will speak about sustainability and how health clubs should accept the challenge and the opportunity of embracing the "green" agenda.
"In doing so, we will keep faith with our role of helping people change their lives for the better," he says. "We will also connect with a rising groundswell of public concern about the state of the planet and create a more powerful relationship with current and prospective members."
Mills will discuss how greening their facilities will enable club owners to become effective advocates for sustainability and how they can influence their members to embrace the cause and take meaningful action on their own.

Light Weight
Aluminium is a very light metal with a specific weight of 2.7 g/cm3, about a third that of steel. For example, the use of aluminium in vehicles reduces dead-weight and energy consumption while increasing load capacity. Its strength can be adapted to the application required by modifying the composition of its alloys.
Corrosion Resistance
Aluminium naturally generates a protective oxide coating and is highly corrosion resistant. Different types of surface treatment such as anodising, painting or lacquering can further improve this property. It is particularly useful for applications where protection and conservation are required.
Electrical and Thermal Conductivity
Aluminium is an excellent heat and electricity conductor and in relation to its weight is almost twice as good a conductor as copper. This has made aluminium the most commonly used material in major power transmission lines.
Aluminium is a good reflector of visible light as well as heat, and that together with its low weight, makes it an ideal material for reflectors in, for example, light fittings or rescue blankets.
Aluminium is ductile and has a low melting point and density. In a molten condition it can be processed in a number of ways. Its ductility allows products of aluminium to be basically formed close to the end of the product's design.
Impermeable and Odourless
Aluminium foil, even when it is rolled to only 0.007 mm thickness, is still completely impermeable and lets neither light aroma nor taste substances out. Moreover, the metal itself is non-toxic and releases no aroma or taste substances which makes it ideal for packaging sensitive products such as food or pharmaceuticals.
Aluminium is 100 percent recyclable with no downgrading of its qualities. The re-melting of aluminium requires little energy: only about 5 percent of the energy required to produce the primary metal initially is needed in the recycling process.

Artisphere is the first and only venue in the United States to present Frida Kahlo: Her Photos, an exhibition featuring 259 images from the artist's personal collection of photographs sealed until 2007.
The collection of photographs in this exhibition reflect Kahlo's tastes and interests, the experiences she shared with those close to her, and her complicated, but also exciting, personal life. The child of a Mexican mother and a father of mixed Hungarian and German ancestry, Frida Kahlo grew up during the Mexican Revolution, survived polio, and was in a bus accident that left her in a full body cast for three months with permanent injuries and the inability to have children.
Kahlo's work and travels allowed her to become acquainted with many important figures of the age. She had several lovers, including the sculptor Isamu Noguchi and American photographer Nickolas Muray. These photographs also expose her connections with friends and the people she admired such as Russian Marxist Leon Trotsky, American artists Georgia O'Keefe and photographers Edward Weston, Alfred Stieglitz and Tina Modotti among others.

This is the second part of our two-part series on how the silly season for next year's MotoGP rider line up may play out. If you missed the first part, you can catch up with the situation in the Honda and Yamaha factory teams here.
Up until late in the 2013 season, changes in the rider lineup for Yamaha and Honda's MotoGP squads looked to be limited. Though all four riders will technically be on the open market at the end of 2014, the most likely scenarios for 2015 and beyond looked fairly settled.
Either the lineups of the Repsol Honda and Movistar Yamaha teams would remain identical, or Jorge Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa might swap seats. The biggest question mark, it appeared, hung over whether Valentino Rossi would continue racing after 2014.
Two major shake ups changed all that. For Valentino Rossi, the replacement of Jeremy Burgess with Silvano Galbusera – and the increased role for electronics engineer Matteo Flamigni – has helped him find at least some of the time he was losing to the three Spaniards who dominated MotoGP last year, making it more likely he will stay on at Yamaha for another couple of seasons. That leaves the situation at Yamaha look more stable than before.
The biggest change, though, came at Ducati. The top of the entire Ducati Corse department underwent radical change. Gigi Dall'Igna was brought in to replace Bernhard Gobmeier as head of Ducati Corse, while Davide Tardozzi joined Paolo Ciabatti and Ernesto Marinelli to help manage the MotoGP and World Superbike teams.
The arrival of Dall'Igna and Tardozzi has had a major impact, and will likely become even more significant as the season progresses. Dall'Igna has greatly improved communications between staff at Ducati's Bologna headquarters and the race teams at the track, making for a much more efficient organization.

I want to know what you notice first in a person and what your top three pet peeves are and if you have any phobias and what you've always wanted to do but don't have the courage to go through with and what you do when you feel overwhelmingly sad and if you ski and if plastic surgery was 100% safe and painless, would you get it and where and why and where you think home is and if you think politeness is important and what you think of indecisive people and if you think there's ever a reason to go to war and something that scares you and if you believe in therapy and what you want in life and what you look for in a partner and what you want to change about yourself and about the world and who you want to be and who you are.

– I Want To Know You, The Wasted Generation // Jeg synes denne teksten er så utrolig fin og tankevekkende. Bare tenk på alt hvert eneste menneske i verden faktisk sitter inne med. Det er så mye vi kan spørre, lære og få vite om hverandre. Jeg skulle gjerne visst både smått og stort om så mange mennesker som mulig, jeg. Det er så enormt interessant å sette seg inn i andres liv, hverdag, tanker, følelser, opplevelser og synspunkt, og jeg kunne mer enn gjerne viet tiden min til å lytte til andres livshistorier og småhistorier. Fint.

Good food is more than a smidgen of this and a pinch of that.
Good food is about doing things the right way in a clean kitchen, washing your hands and not taking unhealthy shortcuts.
Not only have 26 Lancaster High students been learning how to cook from scratch this year in the culinary arts class, they've also been learning why you don't scratch while you cook through a 12-hour nationally accredited ServSafe Food Safety certification course.
In 2007, the yard of the Springs House on West Gay Street received a little makeover from The Lancaster Garden Club.
Six boxwoods found a new home along the front porch.
Now, after a complete overhaul last spring, the joint headquarters for Lancaster County Council of the Arts and See Lancaster SC and arts gallery has been named as the February Yard of the Month by the Lancaster Council of Garden Clubs. In February, the council always selects a business or public building as its yard of the month.
WAXHAW – JAARS will hold its first JAARS Day of 2010 on Saturday.
JAARS Day is an opportunity to see how the life-transforming work of Bible translation is done and how to become a part of it, JAARS media relations officer Arthur Lightbody said.
"Just over 1,200 people attended a JAARS Day in 2009 and 2,300 took one of the daily tours to learn how JAARS reaches the Bibleless people," he said.
"More than 2,200 language groups around the world have no Scriptures," Lightbody said.
Don't be fooled.
The plastic yellow pin flags in a cow pasture across the road from the Buford Battleground don't indicate the route of underground utilities leading to the Dollar General store now under construction on Pageland Highway.
Those markers don't have anything to do with intersection improvements, either.
Those small flags have everything to do with the three historical markers that are directly across Rocky River Road (S.C. 522).
Archaeologists have found the actual battlefield of the Buford Massacre.
Last fall, volunteers launched a local scouting Hall of Fame to recognize those whose footprints have made a difference to the lives of others by a lifetime devoted to community service.
One set of those footprints with Lancaster ties was into the lunar surface in the Descartes Highlands on April 21, 1972.
Dale Laney walked over to the folding table beneath the front window inside the Buford Little General Store on Monday night.
He stared at the table full of orange, green, yellow, red, blue and purple boxes that were neatly stacked by color.
So many tempting choices, so little time.
But for Laney, his mind was made up, already having given into the temptation of vanilla cookies covered in caramel on top and bottom, rolled in coconut and striped with chocolate.

Roses always make a dazzling appearance on Valentine's Day.
But if you want the roses planted in your yard to cause a similar stir in upcoming months, now is the time to get started.
February is still too early to cut back many plants, but it is the perfect time to prune roses.
"The old story goes that if you prune roses on President's Day, you'll have blooms on Mother's Day," said Betsy Steele of Lancaster Garden Club.
It's pretty evident that Janet Nelson has a strong attachment to sewing.
Nelson shows it everywhere she goes with a personalized license plate that reads "LV2QWLT."
Someone once asked her if it meant that she loved to quilt or lived to quilt.
"I told 'em both," Nelson said in a 2007 interview.
For Nelson, that love of fabric hasn't changed, but the fabric of her life sure has.
The woman who loves and lives to quilt is just hanging on by a thread these days as her life slowly and silently slips away.
For more than 200 years, the debate has raged over what happened in eastern Lancaster County between British Lt. Col. Banastre Tarleton and Col. Abraham Buford's Virginia Detachment.
What is known is that on May 29, 1780, Tarleton's dragoons and mounted infantry caught up with the Continentals about 3 p.m.
Within 15 minutes, 113 of Buford's infantry had been killed, 150 were wounded and 53 were missing or captured.
Tarleton's force of 275 men had only four killed and 15 wounded.
If you love to sew, Saturday's One Stop Shop Hop is for you.
Now in its fourth year, the shop hop is co-sponsored by the Piecemakers Quilt Guild of Heath Springs and the Magic Needle Quilt Guild of Lancaster.
The craft show offers almost everything needed to create your own handmade heirlooms under one roof.
The One Stop Shop Hop was created by local sewing enthusiasts Janet Nelson and Pat Ussery in an effort to make quilting and sewing idea and materials easier to find. By providing this one-day event each year, the products come to you.
For the bluegrass duo of Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent, the last two weeks have been a blessing.
The reigning International Bluegrass Music Association's Entertainers of the Year have just seen their most recent album, "Dailey & Vincent Sing the Statler Brothers" debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Bluegrass Albums chart.
Some of those Statler songs – blended in a distinct bluegrass sound and harmony – will ring out from the Fairway Room on Saturday night when Dailey & Vincent return to Lancaster.
As the resident "house band" at the Dollywood Theme Park in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., it's estimated that the Kingdom Heirs sing to more than 2 million people each year – more than any other Southern gospel group.
They put on multiple performances each day from March through October.
When that ends, there is Christmas show that runs through Jan.1. And it's been that way since 1986.
That only gives the Kingdom Heirs about eight weeks a year to get out on the road.
Reshi Clyburn isn't alone.
When she selected a Valentine's Day card for her husband, Mont, and daughters, India, 7, and Regan, 3, at Annette's Hallmark on Friday, those little love notes number among the 190 million cards that will be exchanged in the United States today.
But if you count the number of cards exchanged in classrooms this year, that number tops 1 billion, according to the Greeting Card Association.
But how did cards become such a part of Valentine's Day?
Financial embarrassment can be a cruel malady, come Feb. 14.
You want to do something special for a special someone, but your Benjamins are in short supply.
Don't fret. Just head into the kitchen and check the cabinets.
A one-of-a kind Valentine's Day dinner is only a romantic song or two away.
With a little homework and help from the kids, you can prepare that special gal or guy an extraordinary dinner on a rather ordinary budget.
This is what the good china, crystal and cloth napkins were meant for.
Having the Glenn Miller Orchestra return here Saturday at 7:30 p.m. as part of the See Lancaster SC Performing Arts Series was a foregone conclusion.
In January 2007, the talented big-band musicians played to a sold-out crowd on the Bundy Auditorium stage inside the Bradley Arts and Sciences Building at the University of South Carolina at Lancaster.
The warm welcome they were shown three years ago, along with some down home hospitality, is reason enough to come back, said band leader Larry O'Brien.
It's been said that Cathy Smith Bowers' poems read like miniature short stories.
If that's the case, those stories will be heard a lot in the next 24 months.
The Lancaster native, who now makes her home along the foothills of the Smoky Mountains in Tryon, N.C., has been named North Carolina's new state poet laureate.
A prolific poet, writer and college professor, Bowers will be installed during a ceremony Wednesday at the N.C. State Capitol in Raleigh.
When Wayne Bell was looking for a way to fill his days after retiring from the state of South Carolina several years ago, he remembered something he learned from a great-uncle as a youngster.
"He was a beekeeper and I loved to watch him," Bell said. "I tried to help him, but I don't know if I was very much help."
When it comes to a subject as complicated as beekeeping, you have to get started somewhere, Bell said.
COLUMBIA – Despite recent rains and the recovery from South Carolina's most recent drought, the S.C. Forestry Commission is sounding the call for readiness as the state enters its wildfire season.
In South Carolina, the wildfire season runs in the later part of the winter through early weeks of spring, when flammable ground litter is dry and the relative humidity is low.
Some residents are burning yard waste or lighting outdoor fires for warmth during this time of the year.

Do you remember the horrific Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E) natural gas pipeline explosion in San Bruno, California, that killed eight people and burned down dozens of homes? Two years later, there are still several proceedings pending before the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to figure out who should bear costs resulting from the accident, and how much PG&E should be fined for what appears to have a been negligent disregard for pipeline safety.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that PG&E has offered to pay a $550 million fine as part of a settlement with parties to the proceedings. The Chron also reports that consumer groups and the City of San Bruno have rejected the deal. It gets even more interesting when the newspaper reports that the Commission's President had a private meeting with the Mayor and City Manager of San Bruno and was "livid" that the City turned down PG&E's offer.
I certainly don't know if any of these things are true – whether PG&E offered to pay the amount stated, whether the Commission President met privately with parties to the negotiations, and (if so) what he said. But I do know that if these assertions are all factual, there are several reasons that this should be concern to all of us.
The concern goes to the heart of economic regulation. The CPUC was established as an independent agency — legally obligated to serve as an unbiased arbiter of the public interest, bound by its own rules, and required to adhere to the standards of due process. Although it has become common for parties to major proceedings to offer settlements for the Commission's consideration, the Commission can only adopt a settlement that it finds, after public notice and opportunity to be heard, to be in the public interest.
The Commission's own rules require that what happens in negotiations must remain confidential. Someone violated that rule by giving information to the press, but someone also violated the rule by letting the Commission President in on the conversation. The President never should have allowed anyone (whether it was PG&E or the City of San Bruno) to reveal confidential information to him. And he certainly should not have commented, in any way, on the pending negotiations.
Why should we care? Because a settlement creates its own momentum. One assumption is that parties to negotiations deal at arms length and that none has a special advantage. Another assumption is that a settlement represents a better expression of the public interest than could be derived through litigation. The result is that the burden of proof often shifts in the face of a settlement — it is adopted unless someone can prove that its terms are not consistent with the public interest. Government officials often like settlements because they provide political cover, and can enable officials to evade criticism for a result that leaves one or more parties unhappy. After all, why else would a commissioner, who can cast his vote to support whatever resolution of the matter he chooses, be so upset if parties fail to cut a deal?
What would be so bad about a government official meeting privately with one party to negotiations to press for agreement to a particular deal? A commissioner sits as judge and jury. By talking about negotiations with any party (especially in support of a deal offered by another party), the commissioner tilts the playing field. He has tipped his hand as to what makes him happy, and increases the likelihood that any eventual settlement will be tainted as a result. How can the commissioner try to influence a deal and then pretend that the deal represents the parties' best expression of the public interest? The Commission might as well forget about due process and just issue whatever decision it feels like.
And then there is the question of whether a government official who has worked to achieve a deal with a certain dollar amount attached can then sit as judge on that same case. Due process and fundamental fairness demand that officials recuse themselves from the ultimate decision when they have demonstrated bias or the appearance of bias. In the absence of recusal, the decision is legally vulnerable, and its adoption stands less of a chance of gaining public confidence.
A final issue, which will be left for consideration on another day, is the appropriateness of any private meeting between a party to a pending regulatory proceeding and a commissioner. Most agencies similar to the CPUC prohibit such meetings. Over the years, the CPUC has received some support for private meetings in the form of legislation. However, a legislative fix does not evade an ethical dilemma. Who feels good about having the judge meet with a single party, behind closed doors? Even if the law allows it, commissioners don't have to do it.

The Marlins today completed their new coaching staff. Rob Leary will be bench coach and Chuck Hernandez the pitching coach. Other members of the staff had been announced previously.
Here is the Marlins' official news release:
MIAMI – The Miami Marlins today announced they have finalized manager Mike Redmond's 2013 coaching staff, naming four new coaches and returning two coaches from 2012. Rob Leary has been named bench coach, Chuck Hernandez has been named pitching coach and Tino Martinez has been named hitting coach. Perry Hill, who coached for the Marlins from 2003-06 and in 2011, has been named first base/infield coach. Returning from 2012 are third base/base-running coach Joe Espada and bullpen coach Reid Cornelius. Also, Jeffrey Urgelles returns as the Marlins bullpen coordinator. The announcements were made by Marlins President of Baseball Operations Larry Beinfest.
Leary, entering his first season as a Major League bench coach, rejoins the Marlins after serving as the Indians minor league field coordinator in 2012. He spent the 2010-11 seasons as the Red Sox Major League coaching staff assistant, after seven seasons as the Red Sox minor league field coordinator (2003-09) and one (2002) as their minor league catching coordinator. Prior to that, he spent seven seasons in the Marlins organization, working as catching coordinator (1995-96), minor league field coordinator (1997-98), director of field operations (1999-2000) and Major League advance scout (2001). Leary, who played five minor league seasons in the Expos organization, began his coaching career as a player/coach with single-A Rockford in 1990. He then managed Rockford in 1991-92 and single-A West Palm Beach in 1993-94.
Hernandez, who has 31 seasons of professional experience, has spent the last two years as an assistant coach at the University of South Florida. He last worked in professional baseball as the pitching coach for the GCL Phillies in 2010. Prior to that, Hernandez had two stints as a Major League pitching coach, with Detroit (2006-08) and Tampa Bay (2004-05). He coached in the Rays organization for seven years (1997-2003) following 11 years (1986-96) coaching in the Angels organization, including four-plus seasons as the Major League pitching coach. Hernandez pitched for five seasons in the minor leagues with the Yankees (1979-83) and White Sox (1983).
Martinez enters his first season as a Major League coach after four years as a Special Assistant to the General Manager with the New York Yankees. A four-time World Series champion, he retired from his 16-year Major League career in 2006 with a career .271 average, 339 home runs and 1,271 RBI in 2,023 games with Seattle (1990-95), New York-AL (1996-2001; 2005), St. Louis (2002-03) and Tampa Bay (2004). An All-Star in 1995 and 1997, Martinez won a Silver Slugger Award in 1997, finishing second in the AL MVP balloting that year. He appeared in the post-season eight times, including five World Series.
Hill rejoins the Marlins as first base/infield coach, the same position he held from 2003-06 and in 2011. The 2013 season will be his 17th season as a Major League coach and his 27th as a professional coach. In 2003, under Hill, the Marlins infield finished with a franchise-best .987 fielding percentage.
Espada returns for his fourth season as the team's third base coach. He enters his eighth season with the Marlins, joining the organization in 2006 as hitting coach at single-A Greensboro, before stints as hitting coach at single-A Jupiter (2007) and minor league infield coordinator (2008-09).
Cornelius, entering his fourth season as the club's bullpen coach, begins his 11th season in the Marlins organization. He began his Marlins coaching career in 2003 as double-A pitching coach and returned to that post for the 2008-09 seasons after five campaigns as the Jupiter pitching coach. He appeared in 45 games in the Majors, compiling an 8-17, 4.91 mark with Montreal (1995), New York-NL (1995) and Florida (1999-2000).

fun than a month of Sundays. Or is it? I'm not sure
if I'd want a month of Sundays. A month of sundaes
sounds pretty good however. by
Cole Smith
6, 2006 - If
you're easily offended by a little religious ribbing,
then you might not want to read this review. We don't
want the Canadian Embassy bombed by any over-zealous
was assigned the task of reviewing The Bible Game.
What were the powers-that-be thinking? They knew that
I would poke fun of it just for the hell of it. Yes,
I can and do respect other peoples' religious choices
but when something like this wanders into the middle
of my video gaming territory, it's fair game. I have
an absolute ball making fun of the Olsen twins and
any other similarly contrivances. I'm not going to
stop at organized religion.
be quite honest, The Bible Game isn't as lame as I
thought it was going to be. It's not great, hell,
it's not even good but at least it doesn't totally
suck. It actually pokes a bit of fun at itself with
a gameshow segment called "Do Unto Others"
and the "Wrath of God" which if selected,
will erase all your accumulate points.
bible trivia questions in here that are so difficult
you probably couldn't even get them right if you had
a bible in your hand. The presentation is good and
there is even some up-tempo Christian rock music to
keep things on the light side. A lot of my contempt
for organized religions dates back to my early church-going
days where things were so morbidly serious that Hell
looked like a great alternative. If everything that
I liked to do - such as listen to rock music and watch
cartoons - was evil, then I was willing to accept
the consequences and pay for my indiscretions later.
It took the church a long while to realize that they
were losing recruits with their hardcore stance of
negative reinforcement. The very fact that we see
a vidoe game such as this with cartoony graphics and
pop/rock music proves that the times are a changing.
Image is everything.
of the questions in this game are based on the Old
Testament. This allows Christians and Jews alike to
play it. Don't alienate a demographic if you can help
it. That's one of the Ten Commandments of marketing.
of your religious beliefs, the Old Testament is filled
with plenty of action and colorful characters but
it's not relevant to today's society. The "eye-for-an-eye"
law, slavery and human sacrifices are barbaric practices
that have no place in a progressive society. If anything,
the Old Testament serves to highlight the ignorance
of the people at that time. Consider it as a collection
of fantastic stories designed to force the masses
into adopting specific morale practices, thus making
them easier to control. With video games and hip hop
music, the bible has got a lot competition.
are two main components to the game: a trivia game
and mini-games. The trivia portion of the Bible Game
is based on questions from the Old Testament. These
are some really tough questions as I already mentioned,
but I'm trying to fill up space. Unless you're a biblical
scholar you won't get most of them. Considering that
this game is recommended as a party game for up to
four players, anyone that could answer these questions
is likely to be afraid of attending any gathering
with the word "party" associated with it.
Obviously Rod and Todd Flanders' have this on their
Christmas lists, but with Santa out of their equation,
will they ever get to play it?
"Do Unto Others" gameshow is kind of like
a biblical Jeopardy. You earn points by answering
questions. There is a playing board where each section
lights up in a random sequence not unlike that big
UFO version of Simon. The player presses a button
to stop the light on a particular section which initiates
a party game. It can be a trivia question or one of
several mini games. You may even evoke the "Wrath
of God" which takes away all of your points.
Let that be a lesson to ye. Your god is vengeful,
jealous, angry - and random.
can play just the mini-games if you want, in the Challenge
Game mode. Regardless of which of the two modes you
play, you have to play with four other players. If
you don't have enough players on hand you can choose
some AI to stand in for your missing humans. The AI
is typically unfair. They don't seem to loose and
they sometimes answer questions before you finish
reading them. Obviously the AI is controlled by the
devil and his minions. There can be no other explanation
for such incredible black magic.
are no other modes to choose from. There is no storyline
or online play.
mini games have titles such as the Walls of Jericho,
Jonah's Whale, The Red Sea, Leap of Faith, Stone the
Philistines, Lion's Den, Noah's Ark and David &
Goliath. In each of these games you press buttons
on the controller to complete your objective. In the
Lion's Den you will move your character through a
maze located in a Roman coliseum in an attempt to
lure the man-eating lions into various traps. In Noah's
Ark you match images of various creatures as they
progress on a four-lane conveyor belt of sorts, and
in David & Goliath you use your slingshot to knock
down pop-up targets of Philistines and occasionally
Goliath himself. These games are basically unsatisfactory
as they suffer from sloppy controls and poor implementation.
With the split screen it's often difficult to see
where your character is and what you're supposed to
do with it. Eventually you will get used to things
but at that point all of the games have repeated themselves
and some of the questions are also in danger of appearing
twice. Not that you were paying attention to the answer
in the first place.
really doesn't matter how well versed you are in the
bible or how good of a gamer you are thanks to the
Wrath of the God, and the Grace of God, which appears
at the last round. Uncovering the Grace of God near
the end of the game can put you from last to first
place, showing you that God isn't such a bad guy after
all, even if you are a bit of little jerk yourself.
there isn't a lot of iconic, religious graphics but
at least you'll know that you're playing in some kind
of holy land. There is a slight "fun" element
to the game but I use the term "fun" in
only the loosest of terms. The cartoonish graphics
are bright and colorful but the animation and facial
expressions are downright ugly. Overall the graphics
would be more at home on the first PlayStation.
with the Christian rock music are plenty of noises
such as buzzers, dings, orchestral crescendos, grunts,
laughter and a few voiceovers such as the gameshow
announcer and a gravelly-voiced God. The announcer
sounds like a gleeful vampire but the voice of God
is done rather well. The actor sounds almost like
the voice I heard in my dream when God visited me
and said, "Tell all the kids that I, in no way,
endorse this game, but I can't say enough about Halo
2. "

The Tailgating for Troops program is well on its way to being a nationally sponsored program based right here in Owen County.
My wife and I purchased land off of 607 back in October and fell in love with the area. We are very happy with our decision to buy in the area and eventually move down full time.
We moved our company headquarters to Owen County just a few short months ago due to the generosity of John Ashcraft and the support of Kim Hawkins at Ashcraft Realty. We cannot thank them enough and we are thrilled to be here.
I wish to ask the people of Owen County to join in a nationwide prayer and fasting from Sept. 1 through 11 against a possible attack on American soil.
Our prayers are mighty through God.
"For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but divinely powerful for the pulling down of strongholds," II Corinthians 10:4.
Please pray for protection over our banking systems, highways, airways and mass-transit systems, public arenas, and especially our shopping malls.
We were caught unaware on 9-11, 2001 by we must be wiser this time.
I would like to say a few things about Rick Morgan.
I have know him since I was a police officer back in the early '70s and when he started with the fire department about the mid-70s.
He was already ready to volunteer to help in any way he could.
In the 20 years that I have been in pubic office, I have had a lot of contact with Rick and discussions about a lot of things. He was always for what was best for Owen County.
When I was sheriff and we had the snowstorm of 1978, he was there.
Whne we had the flood of '79, he was there.
It has recently been said that there will only be five people who will profit if Elk Creek Vineyards is allowed to open our tasting room on Sunday. That statement isn't true, and has compelled me to share my story.
My name is Laci Rollins; my husband, Rob Rollins, first moved to Owen County with his family in 1988, and in 2008, he introduced me to this hidden gem of a town that I now call home.
Over the past year, the winery has become part of our family.
The winery is not the issue here. Voting on a matter without seeing the evidence that filled the courtroom with concerns citizens is.
How can an elected official clearly represent the people if he does not require all information to be presented, and demand, on my behalf, to see the full picture?
Is that how the government of our county is going to be run - secret petitions?
When an honest election is presented, there should be no fear of the public's full knowledge and full disclosure.
Peggie Tisch-Rollins
It's great to live in Owen County!
I am so thankful that I get to live in Owen County. I have not lived anywhere else and have never wanted to. Owen County is a beautiful town with great scenery, great agriculture, and great people! If you ask me, I say this is the greatest town in the world! Owen County has always been home to me and recently I've been reminded that it is also a family.
To the City of Owenton, City Council, and the Mayor of Owenton,
Thank you so very much for the repair of our sidewalk. We thank the city Council and the mayor of Owenton for the blessed donation. My self and the seniors appreciate all of the hard work and how fast it was taken care of. It has made our building look a lot better.
Stacey Long and the seniors
Owen County Senior Center
On Aug. 12, it was amazing to see so many Owen countians who filled the old courthouse - folks standing everywhere hoping their voices would be heard.
All but two of the speakers stated strong cases against expanded alcohol sales but it fell on deaf ears.
I would like to thank Magistrate Asa Phillips for standing and voting with the concerned voters of Owen County against Sunday sales.
Also a hearty thanks to (Owen County Judge-Executive) Carolyn Keith who allowed so many people to voice their fears and she also cast a 'no' vote for the record.
What are we to do? Our homeland is filled with violence. Alcohol and drugs are the frontal attack to weaken us before the full-scale assault. The hearts of many of our leaders have been turned to stone. Their hearing is dull.
For Christians, the future is still bright. Our God, Jesus Christ, is alive and still in control. Just as in the frontier times, the bear is at the cabin door seeking to devour us.
But as Pharaoh said about Moses "his God is God." That is still true today. Our God is God.
Meeting the Needs Ministry would like to thank all churches and individuals who have donated to Meeting the Needs Ministry Building Fund. Your support and generosity is greatly appreciated.
For many in our community, hunger is a daily challenge. There are children, families, and seniors who struggle to have enough food each day and your contributions to Meeting the Needs Ministry makes it possible to feed the hungry in Owen County. Thank You!

Parvum Systems Project Build
The OC3D forums not only provide quality and informative advice, entertainment and a friendly atmosphere, it also showcases some of the best PC builds on the internet via our Project Logs and Rig Gallery.
Forum users document their custom creations with live updates and pictures and then share their project with our special community.
Every once-in-a-while, a project catches our attention with its level of sophistication, creativity, and sheer beauty - today's example is just that - beautiful.
Forum user, Imersa, from Parvum Systems was kind enough to post their latest creation on our forums - an Acrylic ITX.
Parvum Systems have come a long way in their short history and that is a testament to the hard work, extensive knowledge and passion for doing what they love. Thankfully for you, they want to provide you with exactly what you want - a unique, stylish computer case with exceptional build quality.
A fully customised version of the Parvum Systems S1.0 case, this little beauty packs a punch sporting:

ITX cases seem to be getting very popular, and for good reason - especially when you see them built like this. However, it's a rarity to see such astute craftsmanship and style in an ITX case that invites you to be able to see all the awesome-sauce that's running through the veins of the power it's housed in.
We had a chat with Justin from Parvum Systems about this build and the plans for the future. Read on for what he had to say...
Q. How much planning goes into building something with this level of complexity? And, how long was that process?
A. For this build the planning process was actually very small. I suppose most of the build pulls ideas from previous projects such as Onwards and Upwards and any other things we've found along the way doing customer orders. If we learn a technique or do something we really like, it usually goes onto the mental list for the following project.
For this build, no sketch-up or renders where used. Any ideas pretty much came in the moments before one falls asleep.
Q. From the first day of building to the last - how long did it take you guys to finish the build?
A. 24th May 2013 - 5th Jul 2013
Q. How can our readers place a custom order with yourselves?
A. We primarily focus on just cases rather than custom builds. For custom spec' cases simply fire an email over to -[email protected] and we will do our best to cater for their needs.
Q. Will our readers be able to see some of your work in the flesh at up-coming events?
A. Loughborough Lan Freshers LAN41: 27th October 2013 Confirmed (we are having a exhibitor stall at this LAN and doing a student Q&A)
- The Gadget Show Live: 1-3 November Confirmed
- Multiplay iSeries i50: 29 November 2013 Confirmed
- Loughborough Lan 6-8 December 2013 Confirmed
- E-Spark LAN 15-17 March 2014 Confirmed
- Multiplay iSeries i51: 22-25th March 2014 Confirmed
- Multiplay iSeries i52 23-26th August 2014 Confirmed
- Dreamhack Winter 27-30 November 2014 Confirmed
We are always super friendly and ready to discuss everything and anything with peeps.
Q. Any insider information on your next project?
A. BIG. 6 Radiators. 4 GPUs. 8 SSDs. 4 PUMPS. Imagine project ITX on steroids.
Q. What's the short and long-term vision for Parvum Systems?
A. Short term: Release the retail version of the ITX case. Long term: Improve our current range of cases based on customer feedback. Expand the range to a full series of cases. Implement a more web accessible user customisation option for our already modular cases.
We would like to thank Justin for taking the time to answer a few questions.
You can see just from this build alone what Parvum Systems stand for. Their first-class knowledge in design, keen eye and attention to detail for the things you love the most, not to mention having the ability to bring to life visions of the seemingly impossible. If the future is acrylic then Parvum have got you covered.
If you're planning an exciting project or if you have any questions you would like to ask Parvum about this build then head over to our forums and document your creation with our community.

Safes from Sam's Club
Safes are a great home security option when you want to keep valuable possessions secure but don't want to rely on a safety deposit box. Safes available from Sam's Club are designed to be too heavy for your basic burglars to carry off and too secure for them to get into, so you can relax with the peace of mind that comes with knowing that even if a burglar should get in, he or she will have a hard time getting to your most treasured items. Through Sam's Club, you can order safe with reliable digital locks, safes that are fire and water resistant and depository safes. You can choose a floor safe or a wall safe, and you can choose key or combination locks. The important thing is to find a secure safe that you are comfortable with for your valuables, and Sam's Club has plenty for you to choose from.
If you're ready to make home security your number one priority, find the right safes, door locks, intercoms and monitoring systems at Sam's Club today, and protect your home the right way before another night goes by.

Last week, on my birthday, I posted 50 things I wanted to do before my 50th birthday, which is still a couple of years off, thank goodness. I am happy to report that one week into my project and I am making some progress.
The funny thing about list-making, is that the act of writing it down, somehow makes it more likely that the task will get done. The really funny, like strange, thing that has happened, is that now that I have sent out a message to the Universe about what I would like to accomplish, the Universe is sending messages back to me. For instance, I listed that I want to contact some former teachers and thank them. Well, the other day, I received a Facebook message from some of my high school friends about an informal reunion. This led me to find one of my favorite former teachers. We are now friends on Facebook! Number 32 on my list states, "Take a sunset horseback ride." Last week I received an email offer to take a sunset horseback ride in nearby wine country! Needless to say, I bought the offer and during the coming months I will be able to check that off my list too. In the meantime, here's my progress, so far:
I spent my birthday at the beach. We went to Paradise Cove in Malibu. This stretch of Southern California coastline is a local landmark that I have never visited before. So, I just completed the first month of Number 21 on my list. Paradise Cove was perfect location for relaxing on my birthday, and I can now understand why it is a Southern California favorite. There was a small pier, lounge chairs and cabanas, it had a nice restaurant. I don't know why it's taken me
47 48 years to visit.
I have also been replacing my coffee with green tea, number 28 on my list. I really only drink coffee in the morning, when I need it most. I miss the taste of coffee in the morning and I guess my body is missing the caffeine kick too, since I seem to take longer to get going now that I am drinking green tea instead of coffee.
I noticed that I was a little slower on the uptake the other morning, as I was practicing speaking Spanish, number 50, on my list. Juan, is fluent spanish speaker. He is helping me out by speaking more and more Spanish around the house. I am not a fluent Spanish speaker, but I notice a dramatic improvement after a margarita . Anyway, I felt like the extra practice was helping until Juan tried speaking Spanish to me in the morning, after I had cut out the coffee. No caffeine or margarita at 6:30 a.m., and I couldn't understand a word he said, nor could I form a cohesive sentence. Note to self: Do not attempt to speak spanish without having caffeine or margaritas.
The last thing I did to make some progress on my list was to buy a new food and use it in a new recipe, numbers 19 and 37 on my list. I went to a farmer's market and bought Black Kale. Then, I went home and made Tilapia and Escarole, a recipe I found here. The recipe called for esarole but I substituted kale. When Erica and Juan saw I was cooking with kale they were not sure they'd like it. To be honest, I wasn't sure I would like it either. But the recipe was healthy, easy and it got great reviews, so I thought I would try it. It turned out great.
So, that's my update on my 50 Before 50 list. I'll be posting more here as soon as I have checked more off my list.

This started out as a bad research week for me, but it got better.
1. For a while I thought that the FamilySearch Record Search pilot page had gone away when all I could pull up from the main page was census information. I found links directly to the databases on Randy Seaver's Genea-Musings, and was able to access the them, but many of the databases I use (Arkansas Marriages, Alabama Deaths, among others) did not have images (Texas Deaths did). Then later the images were back and new databases were added. Sigh of relief!
I was even able to find a few new items on some of the new databases.
2. We installed a new version of Microsoft Office for Mac on my computer, and Reunion has decided it does not want to use it for generating reports. It is telling me that we have to buy iWork. I'm doing the 30-day tryout for now, but really…. Oh, yes, and I don't like this version of Office – palettes gumming up my screen, among other things. Why is it that some people can only feel they have accomplished something when they have completely redone something that didn't really need to be changed?
Norman research earlier in the week did not go as swimmingly without the Arkansas Marriage images, but I'm back to work on them.
This has been a great Brinlee week and I haven't even been doing any Brinlee research! Earlier in the week a second cousin once removed, a granddaughter of Clarence Brinlee (see A Noble Life) got in touch with me and has sent me information and pictures! I am so thrilled that I can find out more about Clarence and Ethel Brinlee.
Today another researcher, who is not part of my Brinlee family but descends from Brinleys who are not related and has been involved in keeping track of the various Brinlee/Brindley/Brinley families I this country, sent me some material he had received from a couple of Brinlee researchers. I was familiar with a little bit of it, but there is a lot of detail and some good information supporting the theory that John T. Brindley (m. Ann Twitchett) of Christian County, Kentucky was the father of George and Hiram Brinlee Sr. (my great-great grandfather), with whom the spelling "Brinlee" apparently started.
There is apparently a Brinlee family legend that Hiram Brinlee Sr.'s older brother George ran away from the family home in Kentucky to Texas when he was sixteen years old; by my reckoning, that would put him in Texas at the same time or earlier than Stephen Austin!
I also tried Google News Archive for "Brinlee" and there were a lot of hits; I'll have to take some time to go through all of them. One of the first things I found was an article on my father's death in a car accident.
Late Acknowledgement
For some reason I forgot to include Dee Akard Welborn at Funeral Cards & Genealogy in my acknowledgements for the Ancestors Approved Award. Thank you so much, Dee! Funeral Cards & Genealogy has also been added to my "Texas Team" list. I would also like to thank Jennifer at La Mia Familia for this award. You all are the greatest!

— The International Biathlon Union (IBU) World Cup is coming to Canmore and Soldier Hollow in 2019, according to an IBU press release earlier this week. The IBU Executive Board met from Nov. 18-19 to decide upon, among other things, the 2018/2019 IBU World Cup calendar. Canmore, Alberta, will host World Cup races from Feb. 4-10, 2019, and Soldier Hollow in Midway, Utah, will host the following week, Feb. 11-17 (the last World Cup before 2019 Biathlon World Championships in Östersund, Sweden, from March 7-17).
— Earlier this month, The New York Times reported that the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has obtained a digital trove of information that could expand the revelations about Russia's state-sponsored doping program. Since late October, the agency has been in possession of "an electronic file that was long considered a final piece of the puzzle revealing the contours of the doping system", the Times wrote, and it came from a whistle-blower. Its information is expected to present more evidence against the Russians as the International Olympic Committee (IOC) continues to investigate Russia, and decide how to penalize the nation's sports federations, before the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, South Korea. President Vladmir Putin has criticized the recent disciplinary decisions, calling them an American attempt to undermine Russia.
— Stina Nilsson of Sweden is on the list of prominent skiers who will likely skip the Tour de Ski in order to focus on the Olympics, according to Dagbladet. Nilsson said that she has Plan A, Plan B and Plan C and, as of late October, the Tour de Ski was not part of her Plan A. However, she hadn't completely ruled out the possibility of starting at least one of the races in the multi-stage Tour. Her teammate, Charlotte Kalla has also said that she would be skipping the tour this year to prepare for the Olympics.
— With the FIS World Cup to opening Friday, Nov. 24, in Kuusamo, Finland, organizers were already expecting to host more nations than ever before. Athletes from 34 countries were expected, beating the previous record of 29, according to Inside the Games. For the first time, Iceland will be represented in cross-country and Turkey will make its debut in ski jumping.
— Norway's Niklas Dyrhaug will not be racing the first FIS World Cup in Kuusamo, Finland, from Nov. 24-26 due to a lower-back injury. He damaged a disk in his lower back and needs to take more time to heal before he makes his return. As of Nov. 14, Dyrhaug planned to make his debut in Lillehammer, Norway, at the start of December. He finished eighth in the overall World Cup standings last year.
"Of course it is very boring and disappointing to miss the first weekends with competitions," he told Inside the Games. "The form has been very good this fall and I have been looking forward to getting started, but now I have to look forward to coming back as quickly as possible."
— As of earlier this month, the 13 venues for the 2018 Winter Olympic Games in PyeongChang, South Korea, were "99.7 percent" complete, according to the organizing committee as reported by Inside the Games. Among these venues, the Gangneung Oval, which will host speed skating, is now South Korea's largest-ever structure with a total floor area of 37,846 square meters.
— Olympians can now be designated by name, much like a doctor would by a Ph.D., thanks to the World Olympians Association's OLY post-nominal letters initiative, which it unveiled at the 8th International Olympic Committee (IOC) International Athletes' Forum in Lausanne, Switzerland, earlier this month. The first Olympian to receive these initials? IOC President Thomas Bach, an Olympic fencer from Germany. World Olympians Association (WOA) President Joël Bouzou, a former French athlete and World Champion of modern pentathlon, presented Bach's certificate and encouraged other Olympians to sign up to use "OLY" after their names as well.
"By participating at an Olympic Games, Olympians have achieved something unique and for that, they must be recognized," Bouzou said in a press release. "They are truly leaders and role models in society and as ambassadors of the Olympic Movement. That is why the OLY initiative is so important. Much like a doctor, a lawyer or a university professor, becoming an Olympian takes many years of hard work and requires a diverse range of skills. I believe this initiative will provide Olympians with the professional recognition they deserve."
— The Visma Ski Classics has increased its overall prize money this season as well as added a new award, the Visma Skier of the Day. The prize money went from 200,000 Euros to 235,000 for the 2017/2018 season. The Vasaloppet awards the most money of the marathon series' events, with 10,000 Euros for both the winning man and woman. The Visma Skier of the Day will be handed out to the most "offensive" (in other words, aggressive skier) in each event "if there are one", according to a press release. "The goal is to create more action within the races and award the skiers who dare to step forward and take charge, even if it might not lead them to victory," the release explained.
"We believe the extra prize money will add excitement to the upcoming ski tour," Ski Classics CEO Øystein Moan said. "Visma Skier of the Day rewards the hard work of athletes who usually wouldn't get any distinction, and will contribute to creating even more positive experiences between our brand, the skiers and the teams."
— Team United Bakeries, which competes in the Ski Classics series, has changed its name. After 10 years, the team has officially changed its name to Team Koteng to reflect its new sponsor, Koteng Eiendom AS, according to a Ski Classics press release. The property management company is based in the team's home of Trondheim, Norway. Team Koteng consists of John Kristian Dahl, Tore Bjørseth Berdal, Torleif Syrstad, Astrid Øyre Slind, Stian Holgaard, Masako Ishida and Team Director Bernhard Rønning.
— A 30-year veteran of the American Birkebeiner has compiled the results from every race since 1999. It is a database containing of 75,000 individual results. Jim Coors, a professor emeritus from the University of Wisconsin Madison, created this database in search of answers to questions, such as, how does age affect performance?
"Cross country skiing may be unique among endurance sports in that excellent performance can be extended well into the sixth decade and beyond," Coors explained in an email to FasterSkier. "Other questions involve how classic and freestyle techniques compare historically, or whether relative performance of male and female skiers has changed over the years. There's also the perennial question of whether wave assignments are done appropriately."

— Earlier this month at the historic New York City Marathon, Shalane Flanagan became the first American to win the race in 40 years. A few notable nordic skiers raced as well, with the Czech Republic's Eva Vrabcová-Nývltová, who has primarily focused on marathons since the leadup to the 2016 Rio Olympics, finished in 36th overall in 2:29:41. Anja Gruber, a former University of Vermont skier and current assistant nordic coach at Montana State University, finished in a time of 2:51:11 for 474th overall, and Annie Pokorny, a former Middlebury and SMS T2 skier, finished in 3:44:27. Results
— Does the name Chummy Broomhall sound familiar? If so, send him a note on his 98th birthday. Friends are requesting that cards be sent to the two-time Olympian and oldest living member of the Chisholm Ski Club in Rumford, Maine, who turns 98 on Dec. 3.
"Last year, the Chisholm Ski Club sponsored a card campaign for Chummy's birthday and he received almost 150 cards! Let's blow that number out of the water this year and start sending him birthday wishes now. Send cards to Wendell 'Chummy' Broomhall, c/o Maine Veterans' Home, 477 High St., South Paris, ME 04281," an article in the Sun Journal encouraged.
"Chummy donated 300 acres to the Chisholm Ski Club, used to create skiing facilities in the Rumford area after returning from World War II. These efforts culminated in the formation of Black Mountain of Maine, a ski resort that opened in 1962. The site has hosted numerous national cross-country skiing championships."

text: I've noticed comments that some folks are looking for winter-friendly caches. Families may not have any, or not enough, snowshoes for everyone so that they can seek caches in the winter. They have resigned themselves to seek out guardrail or lamp post caches. Well, after finding Laughing Terry's "LT Snowmobile Cache" series I can tell you that all of them are on such perfectly groomed trails that no snowshoes are required. You can park your car and walk in on the packed trails and he has chosen cache locations that are above ground and accessible. So those of you who are depressed about deep winter snow and lack of caching possibilities look for: LT Snowmobile Cache #1 (#2, #3, #4, #5, #6) etc. Get outside, get some fresh air, and enjoy caching all year long.

Customers of Mid-Kansas Cooperative and Frontier Ag will not see the companies merge this year after all.
Merger talks, which began in September, stalled this week after company leaders on both sides could not settle on the terms of the agreement.
"The merger wasn't canceled over anything specific," MKC communications director Kerry Watson said. "The way the merger process works is it has to be agreed upon by both parties."
There is no ill will between the two companies, Watson said.
"The deal was left open indefinitely so that way it could be further pursued down the road," she said.
While that merger is off the table, another one is being discussed between MKC and Farmers Cooperative Association, based out of Manhattan.
Farmers agreed to take its proposal before its membership this month, ending a two-year search by the company to find a cooperative company to merge with that would provide the best benefits.
Merger documents are currently being developed and awaiting approval from both company boards. If approved, a vote by Farmers' membership will be required to move the merger forward. The vote has been set for March 6.
Farmers has four locations in Alta Vista, Manhattan, Onaga, and Westmoreland. It is a full service cooperative with annual sales of $50 million.
MKC owns four co-ops in Marion County in Goessel, Peabody, Florence, and Burns.

Clutha Gold Trail
The Clutha Gold Trail is one of the 23 Great Rides under Nga Haerenga, The New Zealand Cycle Trail.
Status: Open
Grade: Easy (2)
Duration: 2 days
Total Length: 73km
The full trail is an easy 2-day ride with stopovers at either Millers Flat or Beaumont villages. Accommodation is available at Millers Flat and Beaumont along with a range of farm home stays along the route. Accommodation is also available at either end of the trail at Lake Roxburgh village, Roxburgh and Lawrence towns.
The Clutha Gold Trail will offer a unique heritage experience along the mighty Clutha Mata-au River then through the Beaumont Gorge, branching off into the verdant valleys of the historic gold mining town of Lawrence.
To enhance the experience, stories showcasing the area's history of early Maori moa hunters, Chinese gold miners, European pastoral farming, mining and rail histories, as well as updates on local orchards, and arts and culture will be provided.
The trail forms part of an extensive network of Great Rides in Otago. Once the trail is completed, is intended to link directly with the well-known Otago Central Rail Trail via the Roxburgh Gorge Trail, which will follow along the true right bank of Lake Roxburgh to the Roxburgh Dam. It will be achievable for most fitness levels.
Clutha Gold Trail – Part A:
Linking with the Roxburgh Gorge Trail, the first 50km section of the Clutha Gold Trail will start at the Lake Roxburgh Dam upstream from the Central Otago historic gold mining town of Roxburgh. The trail will then follow the Clutha Mata-Au River and pass through the Teviot District and Millers Flat to reach the rural town of Beaumont.
Clutha Gold Trail – Part B:
This section of trail will run from Beaumont village inland from the Clutha Mata-au River to Lawrence.
Side trails
Mountain bike riding is also available off trail on quiet gravel roads from Millers Flat to Lake Onslow and from Beaumont into the Blue Mountains and from Lawrence to Lake Mahinerangi. These 20-30km trails are at an elevation of about 1000m and are for experienced riders only.
Best time to ride
Summer and autumn offer the best riding experiences with local fruit harvesting underway and then vibrant autumn colours. Spring will appeal for green pastures and frolicking lambs, especially visible around Lawrence. Winters are dry and cold with short, sunny days, and moderate frosts averaging -1 to -3 degrees when they occur.
Getting there
The trail is accessible from either end. From Dunedin city and airport a one hour car journey along State Highway 1 via Milton to Lawrence. Alternatively access to Roxburgh is a two hour drive from Queenstown airport via Cromwell and Alexandra.
For riders wanting to attempt a near circuit of Otago, leave Dunedin via the Taieri Gorge Excursion Train, then bike the 150km Otago Central Rail Trail, then boat Lake Roxburgh or ride the Roxburgh Gorge Trail from Alexandra to join the Clutha Gold Trail at the Roxburgh hydro dam. End your bike ride at Lawrence and take a further one hour car trip to Dunedin.
Trail partners
The trail is a joint initiative of Clutha Gold Trail Charitable Trust and The New Zealand Cycle Trail project.
