Interviews: Playoff Interviews Notes: Match Notes
With Timber Jim and the Timbers Army out in full force on an overcast day at PGE Park, it was the Whitecaps that looked comfortable keeping possession of the ball on the hard playing surface in the early stages, as a crowd of 8,522 looked on. It was the visitors that had the first chance of the game on three minutes, as Tony Donatelli forced Portland goalkeeper Josh Wicks into a fine save from his free-kick strike after captain Jeff Clarke was fouled near the edge of the Timbers box. Portland were then forced into an unexpected change on seven minutes, as Ambriz had to replace Chris Bagley in the Timbers attack after he re-aggravated a previous abdominal injury. Ambriz then caused shouts from the Portland fans for a penalty after going down in the Vancouver box, but referee Jair Marrufo waved away the appeals on nine minutes. It was not until the quarter hour mark that the Timbers had their first real threat at goal, as Shaun Higgins volleyed Gregor's cross over Matt Nelson's crossbar. At the other end, Sebrango failed to make a decent headed connection to Martin Nash 's corner from the left on 23 minutes. In need of a goal to get back into the series, Portland delighted their home faithful by taking the lead on 27 minutes from a Gregor corner on the right. His set-piece found Bryan Jordan at the far post, where his header hit the crossbar before Thompson knocked home the rebound to make it 1-0. The goal prompted a spell of Timbers pressure on the Whitecaps goal, with Gregor striking over the crossbar on 33 minutes. To their credit, the Whitecaps remained positive and responded on 40 minutes when a Donatelli header from Nash's corner forced Wicks to make an important save. It was Portland that ended the half in the ascendancy, with the home side kept out from scoring a second goal after Nelson and defender Steve Kindel made a vital save from another Timbers substitute in Luke Kreamalmeyer following a scramble for the ball in the Whitecaps box. Donatelli had the final chance of the half in the three minutes of stoppage time when he struck a shot from the edge of Portland's box over the crossbar, as the tie was left well poised for the second half. Lilley was forced to make a change at centre back for the game's restart, as Diaz Kambere replaced Lyall after the Victoria, BC, native had re-injured his right ankle just before the break. With the Timbers Army adding to a great playoff atmosphere in The City of Roses, it was Nash that tried his luck from the edge of Portland's box, but his volleyed effort deflected wide of Wicks' goal for a corner on 47 minutes. The energy and urgency of the contest was evident from both teams, and Sebrango had a chance to test Wicks on 63 minutes, but his byline shot went straight into the arms of the former Whitecaps keeper. On 66 minutes, Jason McLaughlin replaced Marcina in attack before Kindel nearly scored with a close-range shot that hit the side-netting after the left fullback took a neat pass from Sebrango in the Portland box. The pivotal moment of the tie came on 70 minutes, as the Timbers took a vital lead when Gregor's strike from near the Whitecaps box took an unfortunate bounce in front of the diving Nelson and flew into the net for 2-0. "The ball hit the perfect spot of the turf," Nelson said of the second goal. "It hit the seam of the third-base baseball line where they put the turf down and it took a terrible bounce over my shoulder. I'm not making excuses, as I should be making the save, but the surface there made it difficult to save that one." With his side 2-1 down in the series, Lilley cut short Kambere's day by replacing the young defender with the attack-minded Alfredo Valente on 73 minutes and the midfielder soon forced Wicks into a comfortable save for a corner. Even the introduction of Friday's goalscorer Jason Jordan for Sebrango could not sway the series, as Portland sealed their place in the semifinals with a decisive third goal on 82 minutes. Gregor's free kick forward found Justin Thompson at the far post before his header struck the crossbar and found Ambriz in front of goal to knock the ball home. "It's disappointing for all of us," a downcast Klein said after what could be his final game as a professional soccer player. "I thought we came out to score goals and not sit back. We tried to win this game outright, but a couple of bounces didn't go our way. On the whole, I thought we played well and kept going, so I'm proud of that." Needing two goals, the Whitecaps pressed Portland late on, but were unable to find a way past the impressive Wicks. "The second goal made it very difficult for us," Lilley told reporters. "It's disappointing because I thought we played well. We didn't come here and sit back, we started the game well and they got that first goal on a dangerous ball played into our box. We knew it would be difficult to deal with their set-pieces, as Portland like to crash bodies into the opponent's box. To miss Adrian and then have Geordie get injured, we were getting thinner and thinner at the back, and on the day, they were better than us. The referee called a good game, but he allowed it to be a physical game and I think that played in their favour." The Timbers, meanwhile, celebrated their passage into the next round of the USL-1 playoffs with their adoring fans, with Wilkinson expressing his delight at going through. "We tried to bring a different level to our game tonight," the former New Zealand international told whitecapsfc.com. "On Friday, it was an unfortunate goal to give up, but Vancouver are difficult to beat in Vancouver. I still think they are a very good team, but we took our chances tonight and that's just part of the game. We looking forward to the challenge, as it's new territory for us." Portland will now face Atlanta Silverbacks in the semifinals after Jason Smith's side knocked out last season's finalists Rochester Raging Rhinos, while USL-1 regular-season champions Seattle Sounders will play Puerto Rico Islanders in the other semifinal after they disposed of Carolina RailHawks and Montreal Impact respectively.

Jenkins, Ortiz impressing in Blue Jays rotation
TORONTO -- The Blue Jays' pitching rotation has been a bit of a mess lately.
With J.A. Happ and Josh Johnson injured and Ricky Romero unable to find the strike zone consistently, Toronto has turned to veteran Ramon Ortiz and youngster Chad Jenkins to take the reins temporarily.
"The guy that's pitching the best deserves to pitch," manager John Gibbons said.
Both pitchers were formidable last time out, enough so to keep them with the team at least until May 21. Ortiz managed to keep the Red Sox to only one earned run Friday, while Jenkins held Boston to two earned runs two days later.
Jenkins was particularly impressive for general manager Alex Anthopoulos, who said that Jenkins' outing Sunday was the best that he's ever seen him.
"Right now we need both of them," Gibbons said. "We're going to need two guys for next Monday and Tuesday, but then we'll see how everything plays out after that."
Toronto's manager has been happy with what he's seen from Wednesday's starter so far in his two outings with the club.
"One thing about Ortiz is he competes; he's been around. He knows what this level of baseball is all about," Gibbons said. "He relies on hitting his spots and getting a lot of ground balls like he did the other day. If he does that, he should be effective."
With it being over a week before Jenkins is next scheduled to start, either Monday or Tuesday at home vs. the Rays, he was available to pitch out of the bullpen Wednesday and possibly Friday and Saturday depending on how things go.

Frevert Appointed As NW?Regional STEM Advisor
DES MOINES An Emmetsburg resident has been appointed to a state advisory group. Iowa Governor Terry Branstad announced the appointment of former State Representative Marcie Frevert of Emmetsburg to the Northwest Regional STEM Hub Advisory Board on Friday, Aug. 3.
A total of six STEM, or science, technology, engineering and math hubs were launched in May as the first major initiative of the new Governor's STEM Advisory Council, a public-private partnership whose overarching goal is creating greater student achievement in STEM subjects and a stronger STEM workforce. The Northwest Iowa hub is Iowa Lakes Community College.
The northwest Iowa STEM hub is being headquartered out of Iowa Lakes Community College, who has hired Kari Webb of Spirit Lake as coordinator.
Joining Frevert on the council overseeing the Northwest Iowa hub were Shaun Arneson, Wade Weber and Rick Reinking, all of Spirit Lake, along with Jerry Chizek of Manson, Jim Christensen of Holstein, Linda Gray of Everly, Cheryl Heronimus of Alton, Walter Johnson and Debora Robertson both of Sioux City; Dr. Jasper Lesage of Sioux Center, Mary Trent of Carroll, Gerald Van Roekel of Orange City, Ryan Welsh of Sioux Falls and Mark Zabawa of Spencer.
Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds says those appointed " will serve as boots on the ground and be the most entrenched members of the STEM initiative in their region of the Iowa."

New Republic, Old Pay Wall
Information wants to be free, but Chris Hughes wants to get paid. So how will the new owner of the New Republic handle that balancing act?
The same way lots of other online publications are handling the balancing act: A freemium/pay wall model.
Hughes' publication, which relaunched yesterday with a redesigned website, iPad app and print magazine, will also use a new pay wall, which will allow nonsubscribers to read up to eight online articles per month, per device. That is: You could read eight articles on your MacBook, and another eight on your Kindle, etc.
Hughes doesn't reference the pay wall in his letter introducing his redesign, and there doesn't seem to be any direct reference to it anywhere else on the site. But a registration page does note that paying subscribers will get "unlimited online access;" a rep for Hughes confirmed the pay wall this morning.
"Free up to a point" is an increasingly common strategy for online publications: The New York Times, for instance, launched its pay wall in the spring of 2011, but allowed nonsubscribers to read up to 20 stories a month; a year later, it made the wall harder to jump by lowering the limit to 10 stories a month.
And our News Corp. colleagues at The Wall Street Journal have had a much stricter pay wall in place for years, and only allow nonsubscribers to read a handful of stories. (But AllThingsD is 110 percent free, free, free! No plans to change that, as far as I know.)
Hughes, who got his start and made his fortune when he helped Harvard classmate Mark Zuckerberg build Facebook, looks like he wants to position the New Republic as a not-super-exclusive club. In addition to the print and iPad magazine, subscribers will also get access to other goodies, like live events.
Will that pitch, plus a dollop of advertising, be enough to ensure that the 98-year-old publication turns a profit? We'll ask Hughes himself at our own live event next month: You can see him at our D: Dive Into Media conference Feb. 11-12 in Laguna Niguel, Calif.
That one isn't free, but it is going to be an excellent show, says this very conflicted reporter. Head here if you want to join us.

text: An Economy Doing Half Its Job This report presents the findings of HBS' 2013-14 survey on U.S. competitiveness. While HBS alumni saw strengths in elements of the business environment that influence firms' success, the weaknesses in elements that drive prosperity for the average American indicate that the American economy requires a strategy in order to do its full job. The survey delves into three elements of the business environment that play a key role in restoring U.S. competitiveness: K-12 education, workplace skills, and transportation infrastructure.

HandbookIf you are planning to run a tournament then the BGA Organisers Handbook is essential reading. It provides many practical guidelines on using a computer to do the draw as well as explaining the McMahon system in detail.
In this section we will introduce you to some specific features of GoDraw, which are outside the scope of the manual, but which help you to run a smooth tournament.
Avoiding Same Family Games
There is a field in the register called Group - it is to the right of the Rounds field. You can use this field to prevent family members from playing each other. This is done by tagging each family member with a group code consisting of a group identifier(a single letter from A to Z) followed by a group attribute. There are 5 possible group attributes, each one is shown below in []:
[~] MUST NOT play [-] PREFER NOT to play [+] PREFER to play [*] MUST play [:] TOP Group or Supergroup
So, by setting the group code of each player in your family to say A~ the draw will never pair players in the same family. If you have two families, give them different group identifiers.
The MUST and MUST NOT attributes are strictly enforced, and if the program cannot satisfy the requirement it may terminate with some players unpaired. The PREFER and PREFER NOT attributes attempt to modify the strict definition of same club or same country, but if they can't be satisfied they are ignored.
The top group above the bar is automatically given the group code 0: You promote players to the supergroup by giving such players the group code 1: It is possible to have up to 9 supergroups, and the score difference between groups can be set in Rules.
Please see the Glossary for the full meaning of all the group attributes.
As Drawmaster it is your duty to be fully conversant with the tools you are using to do the draw, be it cards, a computer or some other device.
GoDraw provides training facilities via the Settings | Training menu. If you set the Draw Mode to Model in this menu, then when you do the Draw you will get a noddy pairing, which may include repeat pairings, or some players may not even be paired! The purpose of this feature is to ensure that you become familiar with the process of editing the draw. If you use the feature on your actual tournament entry, don't forget to set it back to Normal when you are finished.
You can also set the Draw Mode to Test. In this case you get a proper draw, but now when you come to enter results, you have the opportunity to simulate the results. They get entered without you having to key in every result manually. To simulate results right click on the results grid and choose Simulate results from the pop up menu. You can also Clear results from the same menu.Plausible results are generated based on the player's grades and current performance in the tournament. You will also notice that all types of result are generated, so again you can get practice editing results, and finding out what the codes mean from the Result Field in the Glossary.
Hint: by clicking a result field and then hovering, you will get a summary of all the possible result codes.

The prices of metals in the currencies of countries that mine the commodities can vary considerably from prices commonly quoted in the press, most of which are denominated in US dollars. Ultimately, it's the price of the metal in the domestic currency that's of importance to the metal miner. As such, the dollar exchange rate is a crucial aspect in determining the profitability of a mining company that sells a product internationally.

Marlins first-round pick Moran homers in first at-bat
It didn't take Marlins first-round Draft pick Colin Moran long to get settled in with Class A Greensboro.
In his first professional at-bat, the 20-year-old third baseman mashed a home run off starter Dan Camarena to right field in the first inning of his club's 4-3 victory over Charleston on Wednesday night in Greensboro, N.C. He finished 1-for-3 with a walk.
Moran was selected sixth overall in last month's First-Year Player Draft out of North Carolina. Prior to the Draft, MLB.com had ranked the 6-foot-3 lefty slugger the sixth-best prospect.
"It feels like Opening Day all over again," Moran told the Greensboro News Observer before the game. "I'm really excited to get my professional career under way."
Moran's debut lined up with another bit of family success, as his brother Brian Moran, a reliever for the Mariners' Tacoma affiliate, tossed a scoreless frame in the Triple-A All-Star Game in the Pacific Coast League's 4-3 loss to the International League on Wednesday night.
Moran is also the nephew of former big leaguer B.J. Surhoff.

First, I created a bookshelf page to list the sources that I am using to trace my downeast ancestry. I will update it as I go along.
Second, I added a page for sketches. I think it will be the best was for me to share my work with others. As I find new information, I will go back and update the sketches. Each sketch is will be stored as a PDF on the blog.
My first sketch has been posted. It is for my 5th Great Grandfather, Israel Foss. Link

I've been lucky recently. Bill Arnsparger's book tends to cost closer to $100 than a penny, but an inexpensive copy appeared and I grabbed it (even the Kindle version is around fifty dollars). Compared to Homer Smith's book, this is less a compendium of diagrams, concepts and ideas and more of a handbook on how to organize and play football defense. It is at times synoptic, at times terse, something of a densely annotated outline. Bill is fond of capital letters, acronyms, and motivational slogans. He also needs to learn to spell "Wilkinson".
As a defensive handbook, it's full of fronts, pass defenses, pithy comments, and a fair amount of defensive gold. He talks about which pass defenses should be paired together. He's good at finding ones whose reads would be the same to a QB but whose collective actions would be quite different (Cover 2 with his Two man coverage, for example).
As befits a handbook, nothing is beyond the ken of the curious mind. It's in the depth of the material where it can be daunting. It feels like those sophomore survey courses where the instructor tries to teach everything. Clearly, a lot of time and effort have been poured into the collection of material in the book to make it a cohesive and workable system.
His approach to the history of defenses is pretty original. He starts with the wide tackle six, and between what Jones and Wilkinson have said about the wide tackle six, what Jones and Wilkinson have said about four and five spoke contain, what Homer Smith said about the evolution of the 8 man line, and this delightful Rod Rusk quote from Doctor Z's tome:
We had trouble with Atlanta's one back. I was very tempted, but I didn't have the guts, to line us up in an old fashioned wide-tackle, six-man line, an old 6-2 defense. It keeps going around and around in my head. You can do it with nickel people. The defensive ends are strong safeties, then you've got four linemen inside them, then the two inside linebackers are, well, inside linebackers. I still might do it. You might see a lot of people going back to old ideas next year.
Is this the time when the modern 4-2-5 was conceptualized? I'm really intrigued by this train of thought.
Later he points out that the wide tackle six, if you put one of the linebackers at the nose on the line, becomes a kind of seven-diamond.
And then talks about how similar this seven-diamond is to the 46 defense.
Later, he talks about the Tom Landry flex defense, and rather than focusing on the tackle up on the line, he discusses a flex strong and the pursuit play of the weakside defensive end. He never outright says it, but considering that he later discusses the development of his 53 and over/under 4-3 and 3-4 defenses, it's hard to lose the impression that the weak side end, often handling the weak side A gap in pursuit, was a factor in his later 3-4 setups. Did he see it as a step towards a 3-4? Was the weak side flexed end a poor man's "3-4 linebacker"?
With the notes I've shown so far, I'm really only scraping the surface of this book. I get the feeling a good coach could, in many ways, start and end with this book, and not suffer very much. If you're a fan, the book is expensive enough that you should wait for an inexpensive copy. A defensive coach might actually find reason to buy this one as an ebook, and keep it around.

***There are certain foods that are worth dreaming about, and artisan cheeses certainly deserve a spot on that list. I was recently contacted by the awesome folks at Belle Chevre Creamery, who wanted to feature my blog on their website as part of a four week series spotlighting healthy summer recipes by none other than Chef Marvin Woods. I was so thrilled about the opportunity!
Take a look at the article HERE!
Take a look at the article HERE!
Chef Marvin Woods is an Emmy Award-Nominated television host, celebrity chef, and cookbook author. In addition, Chef Woods was chosen as the very first chef to kick off Michelle Obama's Let's Move! campaign.
Pretty amazing stuff, huh??
I was equally excited to find out that Belle Chevre Creamery, a company that has produced internationally acclaimed chevre cheeses for over 20 years, is located right here in my home-state of Alabama! Belle Chevre has teamed up with Chef Woods to create a new e-Cookbook filled with wonderful and HEALTHY summer recipes for you to enjoy.
After one bite of Belle Chevre's goat cheese, and I am hooked. The texture is amazingly creamy, mild, and distinct. It's not like other chevres...It's way better! My husband - Brad - has never really been a big fan of goat cheese, but even he loved these wraps!
I was in disbelief.
The day after we ate these, he was still talking about them. The tartness of the apples adds such a perfect crunch, while the avocado just sends it over the top. And the spiced chicken - Where can I even begin? The cinnamon, paprika and cumin spice mixture is simply incredible. You might think that the cinnamon would give the chicken a somewhat sweet taste, but it's perfectly balanced by the other spices. The next time that I need a quick and easy way to flavor boring ole' chicken breasts for dinner, I am going to use this spice rub...It's so yummy!
I really think you'll LOVE this fresh and healthy summer recipe. It's absolutely perfect for a healthy lunch or easy dinner.
Bon Appetit!***
Spice mixture made of cinnamon, paprika and cumin...Yum!
Spiced Chicken, Green Apple, Belle Chevre Goat Cheese Avocado Wrap
© Recipe courtesy of Trailblazing Productions, LLC, All Rights Reserved
Serving: Makes 2 Wraps
2 Spinach or whole wheat wraps
1 Chicken breast (butterfly chicken breast if you like), skin removed
4 tablespoons canola oil
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon smoked paprika (preferred) regular will do
¼ teaspoon cumin powder
4 ounces Belle Chevre Goat Cheese, room temperature
4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons honey
½ Granny Smith apple (skinned and core removed, cut into slices)
½ Red apple (skinned and core removed, cut into slices)
½ Avocado (skin and pit removed, cut into slices)
½ Lemon cut in half and juiced (seeds removed)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
Combine cinnamon, paprika, cumin powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Place chicken breast on a flat surface. And sprinkle with spice mixture.
Tip - If you pound out the chicken breast slightly to get an even thickness across the meat it will cook more evenly as you sauté it without overbrowning. Just place the chicken in a baggie and pound lightly with a rolling pin to an even thickness.
Place canola oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Put chicken breast in the pan and cook for 3 to 5 minutes on one side. Turn chicken over and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes. If need be, alternate turning chicken over on both sides until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°. Transfer the chicken breast on a plate to cool and slice into strips.
In a bowl, mix together goat cheese, cream cheese and honey. In a separate bowl add apples, avocado and a pinch of lemon juice.
Place wraps on a flat surface. Add an even amount of the cheese mixture in a straight line to the front of the wrap. Add apple and avocado slices, then chicken strips. Take one of the wraps sides and fold it in to the middle. Roll wrap starting with the side that has the chicken mixture. Roll as tightly as you can without breaking the wrap. Serve.

What does it mean to work at ESPN in a post-Sarah Phillips world?
For freelancers, it means: Dust off that resume! For editors, it means: Lots more paperwork.
To wit:
"It's not a big deal. They just want resumes from all the freelancers," Schatz, an ESPN contributor and editor-in-chief of FootballOutsiders.com, told me in an email. "Totally understandable."
Schatz isn't the only one who's had to produce papers. We've heard about other contributors who have been asked to get on Skype or video chat, or to send in an updated resume.
How'd this get started? A few weeks ago, ESPN.com senior managers—not to be confused with "ESPN.com managing director" Nilesh Prasad—told editors to ask their writers for resumes and to establish some kind of face-to-face contact before making any new hires. Sensible enough.
An ESPN spokesman said that there have been no "specific policy changes" since the Phillips saga, and it's really up to individual editors if they want contributors to refresh a nine-year-old resume.
"Some [editors] may have individually taken the opportunity to take some added steps as part of the process," said an ESPN spokesman. He added: "As you would expect, we took the opportunity to remind people the importance of continuing to be diligent when hiring contributors with an added emphasis on face-to-face contact," the spokesman said.
And what of ESPN senior Jonas Brothers correspondent Lynn Hoppes, the Page 2 editor who brought Phillips aboard in the first place? He's still around. Earlier today, he wished Warren Beatty a happy birthday.
Update 5:05 p.m.: Turns out Hoppes screwed up both Beatty's birthday (March 30, not May 30) and his age (75, not 77). H/T Erik.
Update 6:14 p.m.: ESPN has removed the Hoppes piece. Here's a screengrab of it.

Farr finishes as Top 10 batter in collegiate league
Jake Farr is the type of baseball player that Teddy Roosevelt would have appreciated. He speaks softly and carries a big stick.
It wasn't a surprise that Farr hit over .300 this summer for the Riverhead Tomcats. That was to be expected of the good-hitting second baseman from Strawberry Plains, Tenn. What wasn't expected, however, was the slow start Farr made to the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League season.
"I didn't get a hit like the first four or five games," he said. "I was like 0 for 10 or something. Crazy."
Tomcats manager Randy Caden noticed some things in Farr's swing and worked with him for a couple of days at Caden's Long Island Mariners Sports Facility in Bohemia. Farr said he began putting more weight on his front toe and that led to him feeling more balanced at the plate. It also helps that Farr, who throws right-handed but bats left-handed, is proficient at hitting to the opposite field.
The results speak for themselves. Farr finished the season with a .310 batting average, tying him with teammate Michael Brosseau for seventh in the league, which uses wood bats. He also drove in 18 runs, scored 25 runs, walked 21 times and stole three bases.
This was the first time Farr had played extensively with wood bats. Like many college players, he was swinging aluminum in his recent freshman season for Walters State Community College (Tenn.). Using wood to find hits is more difficult.
"The sweet spot's a lot smaller with the wood," Farr said. "I like it. At first I was a little bit intimidated because I didn't know how I was going to do with it, but now, you know, it feels right. It makes you feel a lot better when you get a hit with a wood bat."
Farr found that sweet spot often enough to help the Tomcats' offense.
"He's a tough out, good eye, and he's been able to make contact with good pitchers, keep us in games," said Caden.
Farr said hitting is his strength. In high school he was an all-state player in 2012 with an extraordinary .498 batting average. He led the state with 24 doubles.
Confidence is a big thing for a batter, and Farr should have no shortage of it after the way he performed against some tough pitchers in the HCBL.
"I've been really focusing on my timing a lot," he said. "A lot of it is confidence. If you're feeling good, you can hit them off the end and drop them in and stuff. When you're feeling bad, man, it seems like nothing drops in."
That confidence could come in handy for Farr, who wants to go far in baseball. He has one more year to go at Walters State. He hopes to receive an offer to play for an NCAA Division I school and be drafted by a major league club. His numbers should help draw the attention of some Division I teams.
"They always look for offense," said Caden.
As a defensive player, Farr had to become accustomed to charging slow rollers off wood bats, something college players don't have to worry about too often with aluminum bats.
"That's the big adjustment for a lot of these guys," Caden said. "I would say he's an average second baseman. He's not bad, but he's average."
Caden raved about Farr as a person.
"Great kid, a great team ballplayer," the manager said. "I think he's said seven words the whole year, that's just cheering for his team. [He] works hard. A coach wants this type of kid on a team."
Having grown up outside of Knoxville, Tenn., in a state that doesn't have beaches, Farr took the opportunity this summer to visit Long Island beaches in his free time.
"I've had a great time," he said. "Too bad we didn't make the playoffs, though. I was hoping to stay a little bit longer."

There's not much known about the eBrompton right now but it'll fold no problem. The motor will likely add a bit of weight to the frame but there's no details on how much. The eBrompton is supposed to go on sale in the UK and Germany next year with a worldwide release coming in 2013. [Road.cc via Wired]

Update 4: the NYT has released a brief biopic on Lanza's, who it turns out had Asperger's Syndrome:
He carried a black briefcase to his 10th-grade honors English class, and sat near the door so he could readily slip in and out. When called upon, he was intelligent, but nervous and fidgety, spitting his words out, as if having to speak up were painful.
Pale, tall and scrawny, Adam Lanza walked through high school in Newtown, Conn., with his hands glued to his sides, the pens in the pocket of his short-sleeve, button-down shirts among the few things that his classmates recalled about him.
He did all he could to avoid attention, it seemed.
Until Friday.
The authorities said Mr. Lanza, 20, wearing combat gear, carried out one of the deadliest mass shootings in the nation's history. He killed 20 children and six adults at the elementary school where his mother worked, they said. He then apparently turned his gun on himself. The police said he also earlier killed his mother.
In his brief adulthood, Mr. Lanza had left few footprints, electronic or otherwise. He apparently had no Facebook page, unlike his older brother, Ryan, a Hoboken, N.J., resident who for several hours on Friday was misidentified in news reports as the perpetrator of the massacre.
Adam Lanza did not even appear in his high school yearbook, that of the class of 2010. His spot on the page said, "Camera shy." Others who graduated that year said they did not believe he had finished school.
Matt Baier, now a junior at the University of Connecticut, and other high school classmates recalled how deeply uncomfortable Mr. Lanza was in social situations.
Several said in separate interviews that it was their understanding that he had a developmental disorder. They said they had been told that the disorder was Asperger syndrome, which is considered to be a high functioning form of autism.
"It's not like people picked on him for it," Mr. Baier said. "From what I saw, people just let him be and that was that."
One former classmate who said he was familiar with the disorder described Mr. Lanza as having "very flat affect," adding, "If you looked at him, you couldn't see any emotions going through his head."
Others said Mr. Lanza's evident discomfort prompted giggles from those who did not understand him.
Law enforcement officials said Friday that they were closely examining whether Mr. Lanza had such a disorder.
More here. Indeed, there is a statistical predisposition, at least anecdotally, for those with Asperger's toward both murder and violence. In other words, watch as the debate rages over the traditional bogeyman of gun control, in a country with over three hundred million weapons, when we may well simply be talking about a mentally ill young adult.
As for the misidentified Ryan, who for a few brief hours was presented by law enforcement as the suspected shoorter, we learn from the WSJ:
Israel raids Palestinian NGO officesKatie Colaneri, a 24-year-old resident of Hoboken, N.J., described herself as a friend of Ryan, the suspect's brother who for hours Friday was incorrectly identified as the alleged gunman. "He [is] a little shy, but very nice and sweet," said Ms. Colaneri, who has known Ryan for over a year.
She said Ryan is a gentle guy who was devoted to his job at the Ernst & Young accounting firm. A representative for Ernst & Young would not comment on his employment status.
A law-enforcement official briefed on the investigation told the Associated Press that Ryan has been "extremely co-operative" and is not under arrest, although he was still being question late Friday.
The official said Ryan's computers and phone records were being searched but only "in an abundance of caution." Ryan told authorities he had not been in touch with his brother Adam in recent years, and the official said he isn't believed to have any connection to the school killings.
In Hoboken, Ryan lives in a newer building that was hard-hit by superstorm Sandy, Ms. Colaneri said. He lost power for a number of days following the storm.
The last time she saw him, about a month ago, Ms. Colaneri recalled that Ryan ran up to her and gave her a hug. "I'm really shocked," she said. "As the details unfolded, I was totally devastated."
Update 3: ABC has released a picture of the real shooter, Adam Lanza, taken in 2005 when he was ~13 years old.
Update 2 : NY Post now refuting CNN's initial report, and stating that the shooter's real name is Adam Lanza, not Ryan Lanza, who is instead brother of the latter. At this point there appears to be a ridiculous amount of confusion who did what, so it perhaps would be prudent on behalf of the authorities to double check this information before releasing it to the media. And just out from AP:
BREAKING: Law officials: School shooting suspect is 20-year-old son of teacher; older brother questioned. -SS— The Associated Press (@AP) December 14, 2012
The AP confirms this further here:
The suspect in the Connecticut school shootings is Adam Lanza, 20, the son of a teacher at the school where the shootings occurred, a law enforcement official said Friday. A second law enforcement official says the boy's mother, Nancy Lanza, is presumed dead.
Adam Lanza's older brother, Ryan, 24, of Hoboken, N.J., is being questioned by police, said the first official. Earlier, a law enforcement official mistakenly transposed the brothers' first names.
Both officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak on the record about the developing criminal investigation.
The first official said Adam Lanza is dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
According to the second official, the suspect drove to the scene of the shootings in his mother's car. Three guns were found at the scene — a Glock and a Sig Sauer, both pistols — and a .223-caliber rifle. The rifle was recovered from the back of a car at the school. The two pistols were recovered from inside the school.
The official also said Lanza's girlfriend and another friend are missing in New Jersey.
Meanwhile, former Jersey Journal staff writer Brett Wilshe said he has spoken with Ryan Lanza of Hoboken, who told Wilshe the shooter may have had Ryan Lanza's identification.
Ryan Lanza has a Facebook page that posted updates Friday afternoon that read that "it wasn't me" and "I was at work."
Update: According to CNN the shooter's name is Ryan Lanza, out of New Jersey. Based on a White Pages reverse lookup there is an 18-24 year old Ryan Lanza living in Hoboken, NJ whose FaceBook profile lists Newtown, CT as his home city. Whether it is the same person remains to be confirmed officially.

Sadly, increasingly it appears that not a day, and certainly not a week can pass, in the US without news of some mass killing somewhere. Several days ago its was a mall in Oregon, and today it is a shooting rampage at the Sandy Hook Elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut. Here is what is known: the shooter, who CBS reports is a 20 year old from New Jersey, is reported to be dead. A second shooting suspect, a 24 year old man with a bulletproof vest and 4 guns has been apprehended in custody (this has subsequently been not confirmed). According to CBS 27 people are dead, of whom 18, Connecticut Post 27 people are dead, of whom 20 tragically, children. Among the dead are the principal and the school psychologist. The AP has already dubbed it "the worst school tragedy in American history."

More from Reuters:
At least 27 people, including 18 children, were killed on Friday when at least one shooter opened fire at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, CBS News reported, citing unnamed officials.
If confirmed, it would be one of the worst mass shootings in U.S. history. The holiday season tragedy follows a series of shooting rampages in the United States this year that have killed multiple victims, and it was certain to revive a debate about U.S. gun laws.
The principal and school psychologist were among the dead, CNN said. Witnesses reported hearing dozens of shots with some saying as many as 100 were fired.
The suspected shooter, 24, was armed with four weapons and wearing a bullet-proof vest, WABC reported.
There were unconfirmed reports of a second shooter.
Another person was being held in police custody after he was detained in the woods near the school wearing camouflage pants, CBS reported.
Sandy Hook Elementary School teaches children from kindergarten through fourth grade - roughly ages 5 to 10.
"It was horrendous," said parent Brenda Lebinski, who rushed to the school where her daughter is in the third grade. "Everyone was in hysterics - parents, students. There were kids coming out of the school bloodied. I don't know if they were shot, but they were bloodied."
Television images showed police and ambulances at the scene, and parents rushing toward the school. Parents were seen reuniting with their children and taking them home.
"This is going to be bad," a state official told Reuters, requesting anonymity because the scope of the tragedy remained uncertain.
President Barack Obama was notified and would receive regular updates throughout the day, White House spokesman Jay Carney said.
"We're still waiting for more information about the incident in Connecticut," Carney said when asked about the president's reaction to it.
Carney called the event "tragic" and said there would be time later for a discussion of policy implications.
Obama remains committed to trying to renew a ban on assault weapons, Carney said.
All Newtown schools were placed in lockdown after the shooting, the Newtown Public School District said.
Lebinski said a mother who was at the school during the shooting told her a "masked man" entered the principal's office and may have shot the principal. Lebinski, who is friends with the mother who was at the school, said the principal was "severely injured."
Lebinski's daughter's teacher "immediately locked the door to the classroom and put all the kids in the corner of the room."
Danbury Hospital, about 11 miles (18 km) west of the school, had received three patients from the scene, a hospital spokeswoman told NBC Connecticut. The mayor of Danbury, Mark Boughton, told MSNBC: "They are very serious injuries."
An early report from CBS:
A shooting at a Connecticut elementary school Friday left several children and the gunman dead, law enforcement sources tell CBS News. At least one teacher was wounded in the shooting that sent frightened pupils into the parking lot.
It is unclear if there was more than one gunman at the school.
Law enforcement sources told CBS News senior correspondent John Miller that preliminary and unconfirmed information indicates that the shooter was the father of a student.
The shooter was killed and apparently had two guns, a person with knowledge of the shooting told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still under way.
It wasn't clear how many people were injured at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown. CBS Hartford affiliate WFSB-TV reports around 600 students attend the school.
Connecticut State Police spokesman Lt. Paul Vance described the situation to CBS New York station WCBS-AM as a "very serious school shooting."
A dispatcher at the Newtown Volunteer Ambulance Corps said a teacher had been shot in the foot and taken to Danbury Hospital.
Stephen Delgiadice said his 8-year-old daughter heard two big bangs and teachers told her to get in a corner. His daughter was fine.
"It's alarming, especially in Newtown, Connecticut, which we always thought was the safest place in America," he said.
Lisa Bailey, a Newtown resident with three children in Newtown schools, told CBSNewYork.com, "Newtown is a quiet town. I'd never expect this to happen here. It's so scary. Your kids are not safe anywhere."
The superintendent's office said the district had locked down schools in Newtown, about 60 miles northeast of New York City. Schools in neighboring towns also were locked down as a precaution.
State police said Newtown police called them around 9:40 a.m.

That headline might sound corny, but it really could. You'll see why in a second. Johnny and his colleagues at Google's Project Tango are working on a phone that is able to scan the world around it and, over time, create maps out of it.
The primary purpose of this will be for Google's obsession with mapping and navigation, of course, but as you can see at around 1:35 in the video below, they're already coming up with game ideas as well.
Augmented Reality like they're proposing isn't new - there are primitive forms of it available on everything from current phones to the 3DS - but this phone's tech could turn your entire world into a game stage, and let you simply add new content just by visiting new areas. Throw in the touch screen and motion controls and you've got a completely new way to play video games.
Which is kind of exciting! Then again, motion controls and touch screen input are often a nightmare on their own. Combine them and we'll either have one hell of a breakthrough, or one hell of a problem.

Newtown seeks public input on what to do with Sandy Hook school
NEWTOWN -- Newtown's first selectwoman is asking residents for advice on what to do with the Sandy Hook Elementary School building where 20 children and six educators were fatally shot last December.
The News-Times reports that First Selectwoman Pat Llodra urged residents to make their opinions known at a meeting set for Friday.
A task force of 28 elected officials has been meeting for several weeks to determine a location. A technical advisory team also is considering a remodeled facility or a new school.
A decision may be reached May 3 or the following week. The recommendation will be sent to the Board of Education.
The task force has narrowed its choice to the current Sandy Hook Elementary property on 12 acres and a neighboring site.
Children, teachers and administrators are temporarily at a Monroe school.

This is the first house, that we have lived in, that has a pantry. This is one of my favorite things! In the past I have had to use a cabinet in my kitchen to store food. In our last house, I had my cake plates stored above the kitchen cabinets. Since we have had very limited space, I have not been able to buy in bulk (which can save a lot of money).
BEFORE pictures: See through the open door at the end of the kitchen? There was a mudroom/breezeway - not really sure how the former owners used the space. There was also a doorway from the mudroom into the bathroom (that is the white door in the back middle of the below picture.
Brick stairs up into the kitchen, some shelving & then the doorway into the bathroom. Oh & some really gross blue carpet.
AFTER pictures:
We saved some laminate flooring that we ripped out of other parts of the house. We put it down in the pantry & in the bathroom (which is on the other side of that wall). In the pantry, we used two separate kinds of flooring to do a stripe look. We used leftover paint from our former kitchen.
At some point, Jake will be adding one more shelf up where the seam is from the drop ceiling, as well as a shelf above where we walled up the former doorway.
I found this little shelf at a yard sale for $3. I have most of my baking stuff on it. Lily "helps" me bake.

With the release of Sam Mendes' enthralling World War I epic 1917 around the corner, it seems fitting to look back at the last decade and see which other films set in wartime made the grade. There's been no shortage of war films in the past few decades and there have been some absolute classics along the way.
The following list features some excellent films based in various wartime eras that were released in the 2010s. There are some big-name titles and some lesser-known gems that you may have missed, making for some required viewing before (or after) you catch 1917 to keep the war movie theme going.
10 Beneath Hill 60 (2010)
The little-known Australian film, Beneath Hill 60, follows the story of the 1st Australian Tunnelling Company as they attempt to tunnel under enemy lines and set explosives to aid the advance of their allies during WWI. The titular 'hill' in the title refers to a location in Ypres, Belgium, which was home to some of the first world war's biggest battles.
Based on actual events, Beneath Hill 60 features excellent performances, led by Australian actor Brendan Cowell, and is a gripping film that depicts the realities of war accurately as well paying homage to the perseverance of the soldiers involved. It's a great film to expand your war-movie viewing repertoire as well as broaden your knowledge of some of the lesser publicized battles of WWI.
9 Centurion (2010)
Centurion takes us way back to early second century Britain when the Romans were big on conquering all the lands around them. After a Roman squadron is eliminated by the Picts (ancient Scotsmen), all but one survivor remains, Centurion Quintus Dias, played by Michael Fassbender (at a time when Fassbender was only just beginning to make a name for himself). Lucky to escape with his life, Dias joins his fellow Romans on a quest to wipe out the Pict threat.
The film is tense, brutal and full of epic historical wartime action, with director Neil Marshall pulling no punches on the violence. Centurion is a gritty and grounded take on Roman-era conflicts and is one that will stick with you for a while after watching it.
8 Tomorrow, When the War Began (2010)
Australia gets another entry in this list with Tomorrow, When the War Began, a film based on a popular novel of the same name which sees a group of teenagers from a small town come together to fight an invading military force.
有时候,人们误以为这种冷静是缺乏紧迫感,而在瞬息万变的科技业,紧迫感至关重要。许多人对于Apple Watch今年还未上市感到失望。但分析师表示,苹果的风格就是一定要等到产品至臻完美,这常常会带来更强劲的长期业绩。三星(Samsung)的智能手表已推出第六代,但至今没有真正大火起来,其今年的智能手机销量也大幅下挫。
v. 强调,着重
In its decision to not boost its monetary stimulus efforts, the Bank of Japan noted industrial production was one area where the economy was just puttering along. Certainly, there were other parts of the economy, such as the labour market, that were doing much better.
很多人会这么想:"只要我努力工作,我总会被人注意到的。" 但是这通常不对。如果你想升职,那么当一些责任分到你头上,让你大施拳脚,你一定要让你的上级,你上级的上级知道你到底为公司贡献了什么。
Sun Yixiao was on his way up last Tuesday evening after school, when the lift suddenly lurched to a stop.
7 Overlord (2018)
For all the horror-movie lovers out there, Overlord tells the story of a group of American paratroopers that are thrown behind enemy lines on the eve of D-Day during WWII. Their mission - to destroy a radio tower housed inside a church in a small town in France that's heavily guarded by Nazi forces. They soon find out that things are not as they appear.
Overlord is a violent and gory horror slash action film that features a diverse and quirky cast of characters. The film is tense right from the opening scene and things turn even darker once the American soldiers discover a series of horrific experiments taking place on unwilling victims. The film mashes various genres together and is a nice departure from the often grounded and gritty portrayals we see in films based on war. A good watch if you enjoy your body-horror films.
6 Unbroken (2014)
Unbroken is the true story of US Olympian Louis Zamperini (Jack O'Connell), who's forced to spend 47 days in a raft with two fellow soldiers after crash landing his plane in the middle of the ocean during WWII. If that wasn't painful enough, he's then discovered and captured by the Japanese Navy and taken to a prisoner-of-war camp, where he faces more torturous challenges.
Directed by Angelina Jolie from a screenplay by the Coen Brothers, Unbroken is a truly inspirational story of resilience in the face of adversity. The film will have you emotionally invested in the plight of Zamperini as you root for him to get through the arduous situation he's found himself in. Check this one out if you like your films uplifting.
5 Beasts of No Nation (2015)
This Netflix Original film follows the story of a child soldier fighting in a terrifying civil war in Africa. He's ripped apart from his family and taken under the wing of a rebel militia leader (played by Idris Elba) and forced to do some horrendous things before becoming a member of the gang.
Beasts of No Nation is one of the more shocking films on this list, as it features the conversion of an innocent young villager turned a violent killer against his will. It's a confronting film that will make you ponder how a 杭州:探索村集体10%留用地上建设租赁住房 can house some horrific atrocities.
4 Hacksaw Ridge (2016)
BETTER CALL SAUL (AMC, Feb. 8) Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould's "Breaking Bad" spinoff is probably the most anticipated new series of the winter. Starring Bob Odenkirk as the crooked lawyer Saul Goodman, the show is set before the action of "Breaking Bad," so any appearances by Bryan Cranston or Aaron Paul would be cameos at best. But the audience favorite Jonathan Banks reprises his role as the phlegmatic enforcer Mike Ehrmantraut.
?All the Bond actors have been tall. This isn't a coincidence. A man who is five foot six needs to earn $175,000 a year more a year to be as attractive as a man who is six feet tall. A lot of people commented on Daniel Craig's buff physique in Casino Royale. Once again the depiction clicks with the research: muscular men have more one night stands and you can tell how many women a guy has slept with by the size of his arms. That chiseled torso may mean he's a better lover.
Global warming and a powerful El weather event combined to make 2015 the planet's hottest year since modern records began in the 1800s, according to scientists, who warned this year could be even warmer.
此次交流显示,两人在长期的安全和外交事务的处理中他们并没有大的区别。在伊朗问题上他们都发誓不会允许其拥有核武器。 罗姆尼说他将出台更严厉的制裁,奥巴马说他们已经尽最大可能的严厉了。
adv. 未料到地,意外地
Director Mel Gibson has never been one to shy away from showing brutality in his films and it's no different here. The film's violence comes late in the story, however, as we're treated to a heartfelt character study before the action arrives. Hacksaw Ridge pays tribute to the human spirit in adverse times.
3 American Sniper (2014)
Bradley Cooper turns in a career-best performance in Clint Eastwood's American Sniper. This biographical film tells the story of Navy S.E.A.L. sniper Chris Kyle (Cooper), who would become known as the deadliest sniper in US Military history.
The film's riveting war scenes include one extremely tense standoff between Cooper's character and a rival sniper, which is the highlight of the film, but American Sniper is at its core, a film about the after-effects of war on its soldiers. It's this theme that lays heaviest on its audience and is one that's reflected with poise and respect by the director.
2 Zero Dark Thirty (2012)
Kathryn Bigelow's Zero Dark Thirty is not so much a classic war film like some of the above, but rather it's based on the war on terrorism as it highlights the conclusion of the decade-long hunt for al-Qaeda's notorious leader, Osama bin Laden. The film is not afraid to confront some of the more controversial aspects of the search, including questionable practices by the CIA revolving around getting information from their prisoners.
Zero Dark Thirty is one of the more wordy, complex films on this list that gives credit to the due process involved in finding Osama bin Laden, as contentious as it may be. The final act which sees a raid on the terrorist outpost hiding bin Laden is worth the wait, however, as it's extremely thrilling.
1 Dunkirk (2017)
Arguably the greatest war film to come from the 2010s is Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk. Set in WWII, the film sees allied forces trapped and facing imminent doom from their German adversaries as they scramble to evacuate the town of Dunkirk, France. The story is cleverly told from three different perspectives - air, land, and sea, and contains minimal dialogue, focusing more on the music and visuals to build the tension.
Dunkirk should be considered a masterpiece of wartime cinema, up there with the likes of Apocalypse Now and Saving Private Ryan, and is easily one of Nolan's best films (if not the best). The film is suspenseful all the way through and doesn't rely on common tropes to get the point across. It's a truly unique and visceral war film that will keep you guessing and have you on the edge-of-your-seat.

TRUMPF provides efficient solutions for sustainable energy production in the future.
Solar power is playing a particularly important role in our endeavors to create a sustainable energy economy. It has experienced the highest growth rates of all renewable energies in recent years, but its potential is far from exhausted. TRUMPF offers customized solutions for this industry of the future, and is opening up new opportunities for solar cell manufacturers and system constructors. TRUMPF lasers structure and interconnect the cells on the solar module, and ensure through targeted de-coating that the modules have the necessary insulation resistance. TRUMPF Hüttinger is an industry leader in providing stable and precise process power supplies for coating solar cells.
Energy conversion
To protect thin-film solar modules from external influences, short and ultrashort pulse lasers remove the layer system at the edge of solar cells to a width of around a centimeter, so that it can be covered with film lamination. Lasers also impress during selective ablation of passivating layers on crystalline solar cells, and when performing accurate drilling tasks in silicon. Lasers improve the conversion efficiency and ensure a high performance level.
Energy storage
Since solar systems do not produce a constant supply of energy, storage systems need to be used. In order to connect the storage systems to the power supply, TRUMPF Hüttinger develops and supplies innovative bidirectional inverters, which efficiently charge and discharge the battery system. Due to the modular design, they can be used in storage solutions of different power classes ranging from kilowatts to megawatts. TRUMPF lasers are also used to weld the electrical contacts. Distortion-free seams are guaranteed as the heat input is low and restricted locally.
In the production of silicon wafers and thin-film solar cells, the quality of the layers applied plays a crucial role. The better the application of layers, the greater the ultimate module efficiency. TRUMPF Hüttinger's high-tech generators significantly influence the quality of the layers as they precisely control the energy input in the coating processes of the solar industry. Renowned system constructors rely on the precise, stable process power supplies from the market leader for solar generators.

As far as renaissance men go Jim O'Rourke could handle the patronage of a very extended Medici family. As a producer his skills have brought out a mahogany toned richness in the work of Smog, Wilco and Sonic Youth to name his more mainstream clients. Simultaneously O'Rourke is also at home adding even more texture to the inner workings of Nurse with Wound, Merzbow and Whitehouse.
First coming to prominence in his early twenties as a member of both Illusion Of Safety and Gastr Del Sol, O'Rourke became the in demand producer / collaborator with the avant garde of an older generation: Faust, Tony Conrad, The Red Crayola. However, O'Rourke also revealed a rainbow-wide pallet ensuring a reputation for a widescreen working practice that took him outside the underground. Nowhere is his breadth of vision more in evidence than the trio of solo albums recorded in quick succession at the turn of the century and released on Domino. The Jim O'Rourke solo trilogy traces a line of heritage through Great American Music as though he were curating an O'Rourke endorsed Hall of Fame.
Bad Timing draws on the steel string drones of Robbie Basho and John Fahey and helped rehabilitate the career and kick-start the influence of Fahey (whose comeback Womblife O'Rourke produced). Eureka showcased O'Rourke's mellifluous voice for the first time and drew on the kick drum bagatelles of Van Dyke Parks and the orch pop of early 70s Burbank. O'Rourke followed up these two beautifully constructed essays in arrangement and detail with the raucous Insignificance: a re-working of the modal guitars of The Allman Bros and the everyman sophistry on The Doobie Bros and 70s studio Grateful Dead.
Lurking beneath the sophistication of his sound O'Rourke's lyrics are often deliberately vituperative and unsavoury. This sense of the magic being interrupted by something malevolent is echoed in the fact that each album in the trilogy takes its title from a movie by the maverick filmmaker Nicolas Roeg. Roeg's sense of richness, candour and mild nihilism is blotted on these recordings. Having concentrated on his solo output O'Rourke then joined Sonic Youth as a fifth member for a trio of albums. The highlight of this collaboration was Murray St on which O'Rourke's input as producer recalibrated the bands dynamics to great effect. His on stage presence as bassist or guitarist allowed one of the richest catalogues of the last twenty years to be re-plundered and re / mis-interpreted nightly. Few artists seem as capable of wearing so many hats simultaneously and so successfully; currently O'Rourke's interests lie in film and animation confirming him as one of today's true auteurs.

Sauce-Sational: An Experiment in Applesauce - Fireside
Next up to talk about it the Fireside. Now, the Fireside's are big apples and are a bit more tricky to get through my peeler, corer, slicer but I still managed!
The Fireside is a very large fruit with sweet, pleasant flavor and fine-grained flesh good for fresh eating, salad, and baked apples. Good storage life.
I cooked the apples down in the miniature slow cooker for 3 hours. It was a sweet, chunky sauce. I did like it better than the Gala as far as flavor goes. I thought there was a lot of great flavor at first but it died off. It was decent but I could see that would add a fantastic sweetness if it were mixed with another apple or two.

A complex ancient landscape at Wheen, Glen Clova
My name is Eve Boyle, and for over twenty years I have served as a field archaeologist with RCAHMS. This job has led me all over the country, identifying, mapping and describing visible remains of our ancestor's homes, farms and fields. It comes as a surprise to many people (and sometimes ourselves too!) to learn that there are still many areas of the country, particularly in the Highlands, with an abundance of unrecognised and unrecorded sites. The Angus Glens, on the edge of the Cairngorms, is one area that still has archaeological riches awaiting discovery. As an illustration of this, I have chosen as my favourite site this small area of pasture at Wheen, straddling the public road running into Glen Clova.
We mapped all the sites you can see in the picture in 1999, but it was only in the previous year, when this aerial photo was taken, that we realised there was anything of significance to be recorded in the glen. The crisp low light on a November afternoon throws up long sharp shadows that cause the low banks and knee-high footings of stone walls to jump out at us, almost shouting 'Here I am! Look at me!'
The most exciting features are the prehistoric round houses, dating from the Bronze and Iron Ages. Three of these are clearly visible, one just left of centre in the foreground, another (which is oval rather than truly round) at the bottom right corner, the third in the middle distance, close to the right-hand edge of the frame. But there are others for the sharp eye to find. Our survey map shows seven round-houses in the area of the photo, with another six in the forestry and on the moorland to the north (the survey map has been turned to have south at the top to match the aerial photo). These are big structures, up to 50 feet across, the homes of farmers and herdsmen living in the glen two or even three thousand years ago. Around them the low light picks out small heaps of stone, now overgrown with grass and heather; these were formed as our ancestors threw into piles the stones dragged up by their ploughs.
But there are many other structures here – rectangular buildings occupied in more recent times, perhaps no more than three or four hundred years ago. The largest group of these, at the top of the photo, represents the remains of a farmstead from the 18th century, while the other small buildings (all shown in red on the survey map) were once perhaps the homes of labourers. The survey map also shows (in brown) short lengths of ruined walls and earthen banks, the remnants of a system of fields, some of which may be medieval or later, while others perhaps are as old as the round houses.
This photo is a marvellous example of the great wealth of archaeology in our countryside, often no more than a stone-throw from roads we drive along every day.
This is what I've chosen for Day of Archaeology, but why not tell us your favourite archaeological sites in Scotland on Twitter using #MyArchaeology.

New homes for Perth and Regional Western Austraila
The Liberal-National Government of Western Australia has announced a major stimulus package to boost the housing construction industry and reduce pressure on the states social housing sector. Treasurer and Housing Minister Troy Buswell and Regional Development Minister Brendon Grylls said $316million would be brought forward from future budgets to fund construction of more than 1,000 new dwellings in Perth and regional Western Australia. Of this, $116million would be spent on social housing and $200million from Royalties for Regions funding to boost the Government Regional Officers Housing (GROH) program.
This immediate and targeted spending on new housing will help address the sharp decline in building activity and deliver much needed social housing in a more timely way. It will provide for 600 new dwellings available for rental by Homeswest applicants and more than 400 in regional areas under GROH. Despite significant increases in the first home owner grant and substantial interest rate reductions, residential construction is at its lowest level since 2001. " Mr Buswell said. The building industry is one of the Western Australia's biggest employers and this cash injection will help the industry ride out the current economic downturn. It will also help the State Government get good value for money by taking advantage of reduced building costs in the current economic climate. The Treasurer said it was important to emphasise this was not new money but funds from future budget provisions brought forward because it was needed now to help support the economy in extremely difficult times. Mr Grylls said that the Royalties for Regions program had allowed the Government to increase its investment in regional housing. By reconfiguring the Housing our Workforce component of Royalties for Regions, we can fund more than 450 new houses across regional WA in the next year. This will help sustain regional economies and provide much better housing to encourage government employees to live and work in the regional Western Australia. The State Government is also looking at more innovative housing solutions such as new generation prefabricated dwellings and lifestyle villages as a way of delivering more housing with current funding." he said.
Mr Buswell said bringing forward funding would have no net impact on state debt over the published forward estimates. By spending this money now rather than in three to four years, we can provide an immediate economic stimulus for Western Australia, as well as delivering a range of social benefits, the WA Treasurer said.
