Cost: $3.00/gal for 16 gal.
They have a sliding price scale starting at #3.25/gal going to $2.25/gal for 1000 gal. Their policy is that they will give you the discount if you pay for the quantity at time of purchase and you can take possession 1 gal at a time if you want to, of course they get to keep your money in the meantime.
Very nice people to deal with and they understand biodiesel.

just got a 55 gal drum of methanol from Taurus lubricants in Lowell, MA for $185. The owner also sells NaOH/KOH and is very interested in supplying the Biodiesel community. He will even deliver as far south as RI(where I live) if he has an order of at least 3 barrels. So, it's an opportunity for people to get together on supply needs.

Not ready yet (still in batch test mode) but should be interested in 1 barrel if you can get a delivery. Where in RI are you? Thanks.

we are in the northwest corner-Burrillville area.
Moved Reply: Hi,
I got a quote of $167/55gal here in Worcester from Schultz Lubricants. Plus a $20 barrel charge unless you can swap a good shape barrel the salesman said. That price was 2 weeks ago.
I called Taurus in Lowell in August and the guy didn't seem to interested and had only one barrel to sell. His price was around that $185... I can't remember exactly.
Do you think they would do a multi drop delivery? ie: 5 of us order at the same time getting a better price then deliver to different locations?? I doubt it... might be worth a try.

Is this fact or urban myth??

Caroline Welker, a junior wing at Ohio Wesleyan University, was hit by a Delaware, Ohio police officer driving to the scene of a disturbance in the early hours of Thanksgiving. Welker was in the crosswalk on Central Avenue when officer Mark Jackson turned onto Central and immediately collided with her. She went sprawling a good 10 feet across the ground after impact.
Welker, who notched her first career double-double the night before, is recovering and says she has a concussion and overall body soreness, but no broken bones. Jackson was charged with failure to yield.

Shade Spotlight
Zoya Nail Polish | MarleyBeautiful!
I love Marley. I wasn`t sure if it would be too pale or too purple or too white, but I was absolutely thrilled when it arrived because it`s really beautiful. One coat did a nice job, but I added a second coat (because I always do). It went on like a dream, and looks really pretty several days later. This is one of those colors that makes me stop and look at my nails throughout the day. Just enough white, just enough purple, not too bright but not too pale. I really do love it - Definitely one of my favorites!
Zoya Nail Polish | Marley love!
this is my new favorite color. i don`t care if it`s winter, i`m wearing it all the time! looks totally great on fingers and toes.
Zoya Nail Polish | MarleyNot for me
Marley was one of the colors that sat in my shopping cart for weeks. But when I saw it at a local Ulta, I had to buy it. It applies amazingly. However, the color is a little too "blah" for me. It needs something to give it a little more depth, if that makes sense. It`s also a lot more pastel than I was expecting. I`ll be keeping it just because it was my first Zoya purchase.
Zoya Nail Polish | MarleyPale Perfection
Marley was my very first voyage into the land of Zoya. Basically, I had read all the reviews stating it was a better formula than OPI, and the free Remove promotion was the perfect excuse to put a few pale polishes (OPI`s one streaky weakness) to the test. Wowzers! Marley, a pale-as-can-be milky lavender, went on like a dream in a single coat, and it`s opacity is only rated a 4 out of 5! In two quick coats, I had no streaks or bald patches, like with so many light colors. In terms of the shade itself, I think Marley is a lot more flattering and forgiving than some of OPI`s more popular pale lavenders (Rumple`s Wiggin, for example). I think I found my new favorite Spring shade!
Zoya Nail Polish | MarleyNow that`s what I call lavender!
While I was expecting this to be a soft, subtle lavender on my nails, what I got instead was the most awesome of Easter egg lavenders, in the most vibrant pastel version possible. It`s quite a fun, cheery colour. I have pumps almost this exact same shade too. Opacity can be achieved in one, sorta thick coat.
Zoya Nail Polish | MarleyLove it!
I wasn`t sure if I would like Marley, but it`s become one of my favorites! It`s a very unique, pastel lavender with hints of gray and a very subtle pearl effect at just the right angles. Needed only 2 coats to be completely opaque. Mine was a bit thicker going on than my other Zoya colors, but it could just be the bottle I got. It`s a perfect color for Spring! Has great longevity on the nails as well.
Zoya Nail Polish | MarleyPretty…but needs something to make it magical
Fell in love with this one at the first sight of it online…and it's very lovely in the bottle. Sadly disappointment set in upon application (for the first day I was actually looking forward to it chipping for an excuse to change it). The magic to be found in Marley is completely dependent upon lighting and angle of viewing it. On Day 2 (same lighting inside & out) it was beginning to redeem itself and I now have a fondness for it, and wished I had put the effort into a lasting paint job. If this had just a bit more depth to it, -and a little bit less whiteness/grayishness to it (which is minimizing its overall charm) it would be really special, -and a bit more of the 'pearl' finish would maybe be helpful.
Would *LOVE* to find this in a shade that makes you say 'hmmm…is it pink or is it purple…?!?' (rather than 'is it purple or is it white?')

If I could have a breakfast rallying cry, a breakfast mantra, if you will, it would be, It's not cake! It's breakfast! It would be rather dull, naturally. I know that the line between Cake For Breakfast and our various formats of Breakfast Cakes (muffins, coffee cakes and pancakes) is thin, I know the distinctions on either side of it are, at best, tiny, but they are what allows me to pretend I'm eating cake for breakfast when I'm really not, so I cling to them.
I said as much a few weeks ago when I made coconut muffins. Oh sure, they're like a glorified macaroon, but! a macaroon full of healthy oils and Greek yogurt and whole wheat flour and a moderate level of sugar. They win at breakfast. Cake, 0, Breakfast 1, you could say. But when I spotted a recipe for carrot cake pancakes, replete with what we all know is the very best part of carrot cake, a sweetened cream cheese topping, I said, "No way, uh-uh. Carrot cake is dessert, not breakfast."
Thank goodness I studied them more closely from there because when I did, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find a trace of evil. A smallish amount of flour, minuscule amount of sugar, single egg and not a lick of melted fat (inside the pancake, that is) batter up with the better part of a pound of carrots, and together they make The Very Best Way To Skirt The Breakfast/Cake Divide and Totally Win. Or, more succinctly, you could just call them Carrot Cake Pancakes.
I should have known they'd be delightful, based on the source, the first cookbook from one of my favorite voices in food blogging, Joy the Baker. Joy is — in case the glamour gal in the cocktail dress, holding a towering pink birthday cake, on an even pinker book cover didn't give it away — a delight. When I found her blog a few years ago, I was drawn to the girly chattiness, like being on the phone with a friend and realizing that you're eating chocolate cake for dinner and laughing about it. She's that kind of fun. But when I think of Joy, I really think of pancakes because this woman, she knows her pancakes. From the The Single Lady Pancake to Cornmeal Molasses and Smashed Raspberry and Chocolate Chunk Pancakes, she's got more pancake recipes on her site than I can count on both hands and I love this story about her dad and pancakes. If I was going to drag her book into the kitchen with me, I knew it would have to be to make pancakes.
This recipe is the kind that will go instantly into a regular weekend morning rotation. Or, perhaps, you regularly get your meals mixed up like I do. I made these on Thursday afternoon, thinking we could heat and eat them on Saturday morning. But Thursday 5 p.m. crept up, then 5:30, then 5:45 and I couldn't put off making dinner any longer, and little thought crept into my head… two cups of carrots, two cups of carrots and I think we know what happened next. By Saturday, it was time to whip out the grater again.
The only thing I can say I gravely dislike about making carrot cake is the need for finely grated carrots. My love for my food processor's shredding blade, which reduces potatoes to hash browns in two seconds flat, is well-documented but it's not the right tool for these pancakes, because (at least in the case of my FP) the shredded carrots are too coarse, and won't cook to a point of tenderness in their few minutes on the grill. Hand-grating on the fine holes of a box grater is the way to go.
Nevertheless, once you've endured that hardship, it's delicious sailing the rest of the way. If you're of the misconception, as I was, that cream cheese frosting has no place at the breakfast meal, I think this will change your mind: softened cream cheese is beaten with just a fraction of the sugar you'd use in a real frosting, and milk, not cream, is used as a thinning agent. Despite concerted dolloping efforts, we had a bit of extra and should you, as well, I advise you to definitely not try to figure out whether it would taste good on banana bread, or an oatmeal muffin, or a… spoon. Just don't. It's a slippery slope.
Yield: About 12 to 16 3- to 4-inch pancakes
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (I used a smidge less)
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts (optional, I skipped them)
2 tablespoons golden raisins (optional, ditto)
1 large egg
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups finely grated carrots (from about a 3/4 pound bundle whole carrots)
3 tablespoons butter, for griddle
Cream cheese topping
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Dash of ground cinnamon
Place a rack in the upper third of your oven and preheat to 200°F. This will keep the pancakes warmed as they're fried in batches.
To make the pancakes: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and, if using, nuts and raisins. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, brown sugar, buttermilk and vanilla. Stir in carrots. Stir carrot mixture into dry ingredients, stirring until just Incorporated. Let rest for five minutes while you make the cream cheese topping.
To make the cream cheese topping: In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese until fluffy and lump-free. Whisk in powdered sugar, two tablespoons milk, vanilla and cinnamon. If you'd like the mixture thinner, add the remaining tablespoon of milk (I did not).
Over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a cast-iron skillet or griddle pan. Spoon 2 tablespoons batter into the hot pan per pancake (to me, this seemed like too little but after experimenting with larger pancakes, I advise you to listen to Joy; It's a wiggly batter and much easier to and cook in small puddles), flipping once, until pancakes are golden on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer finished pancakes to a serving dish or tray in the oven, to keep warm while you repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter as needed.
Serve warm with cream cheese topping.

Financial Considerations When Starting Your Own VT Bharadwaj Business.
It is very important that you have sufficient interest in finances and enough knowledge of finances before you even start your own business. In fact, this is one important factor of why small businesses fail so much – they don't adequately know how to control costs or make proper collections and not let debts grow beyond an unreasonable limit. For countless entrepreneurs, the major stumbling blocks in starting a business are forecasting sales, compiling financial statements and projecting regular cash-flows. VT Bharadwaj – Of course, there are accountants who will help you with the nitty-gritty of things but you have to at some point be able to have a global picture of what your finances are like and where you are headed. In fact, it is thought that the reason out of thousands of firms launched every year, only a few survive. Those that do not are ones wherein the owners did not have a good understanding of what their expected revenues, would be or how they related to the expenses and profit.
VT Bharadwaj – Only a lucky few can start their business in this world with unlimited finances.
Therefore making financial forecasts allows prospective entrepreneurs, to estimate how much time will be needed for the business to settle down, reach a break-even point and then actually start making profits. Most investors and experts believe that it is best to prepare financial forecasts of at least two to three years which will include profit and loss statement for all years and monthly cash-flows for at least one year. These forecasts will help you get a reality check in terms of where you stand with the money and what you will need to do to fund the business till it starts making profits. VT Bharadwaj – You may need to consider various options of finding the money including using your own resources, asking a partner to pitch in with some investment or speaking to family or friends who can lend you some money. For large sums it is best to approach a bank or credit union. You could also try other investors and specialty loan programs. Financial forecasts also serve another important function. Working on these details will help you realize the true costs of starting and running a business. You will be able to judge for yourself on whether you will be able to build a self-sustaining business with the kind of financial projections that you anticipate or should you just cancel the project instead of wasting more time and efforts in it. Do not delude yourself into thinking that your business will start flourishing in its very first year. Even if you projections are showing that, redo them and then make sure you are honest and realistic about sales projections and cost estimates. If your projections show that you are losing a lot of money in your first year, then you need to look where you can reduce your spending and how you can reduce your fixed costs.

Dr. Mark Beilstein, a Mercer Postdoctoral Fellow in the Mathews lab of Arnold Arboretum, was very excited to discover previously overlooked fossil evidence that bears on the age of Arabidopsis thaliana, the foremost genetic model in plant biology. Prior estimates have been widely cited (more than 400 times) in a broad range of journals including Nature, Science, PLOS Genetics, Genome Research, PNAS, Nucleic Acids Research, Genetics, and many more. Beilstein and colleagues estimate ages for Arabidopsis and other splits in Brassicaceae to be two- to three-fold older than the published estimates, suggesting that the pace of gene, genome, and developmental evolution occurred more slowly than has been appreciated, and that Arabidopsis evolved in a period of significant warming rather than in a period of cooling. Although Arabidopsis is a weedy herbaceous plant, it is the experimental system in which basic plant processes, including those of woody plants, are being studied.
Well-preserved fossils of flowering plants that can be placed reliably in extant families are rare, hindering estimation of divergence times. A fresh and more detailed look at an ignored fossil, Thlaspi primaevum, allowed for the use of a fossil calibration point within the plant family Brassicaceae, which has a significant impact on divergence estimates. And given the importance of Arabidopsis, the revised estimates will impact multiple disciplines, including comparative genomics, evolution of development, and coevolution of animals and plants.

He was 19 then, and awoke early that fateful morning. He bought a Sunday newspaper, then sat in the transmitter room aboard the USS St. Louis, enjoying the Honolulu headlines with his feet up.
"All of the sudden I hear these explosions, and I'm thinking, 'What are those dumb Marines doing out there?'" Kotovsky said after speaking at a Pearl Harbor Day Memorial ceremony Friday morning. "It was a couple of these before I realized it wasn't that. I ran out on the deck and realized the war had started.
Kotovsky, 90, earned his ham radio license in high school. The military had a high demand for radio operators then, and he saw the Navy as a chance to see the world - before that, Kotovsky hadn't ventured far outside of his small Missouri hometown.
On Dec. 7, 1941, the Las Crucen had a box seat to one of the most historic and horrific days in American history.
Said Kotovsky to the Friday morning crowd at Veterans Memorial Park: "We're at peace and the next moment, we're fighting for our very lives. ... It was unbelievable."
According to Naval Historical Center, the USS St. Louis was the first major vessel to reach open water after the attack. The fiery carnage played out in front of him as his ship sped toward the Pacific.
A radio operator, Kotovsky hurried to set up an antenna on the ship's yardarm rigging "so we could have communications," he said. Kotovsky saw Japanese torpedoes fired at his ship hit nearby coral reef.
Kotovsky punctuated his short talk as he regularly does when talking about his experiences.
"Remember Pearl Harbor," he said. "Keep America strong. And, above all, support our men and women in the armed forces."
That message certainly wasn't lost on the people at Friday's ceremony, which included the raising of the Garrison Flag. Many of those in attendance were veterans, including a handful that served in World War II. There was also one other Pearl Harbor survivor, Archie Luce.
A pair of WWII vintage aircraft from Santa Teresa's War Eagles Museum made two passes over the memorial.
Simon Mendoza, 90, was another veteran in attendance. He enjoyed the brief ceremony, reflecting on his experiences as he dunked a cookie into his coffee cup.
"It's a wonderful thing," he said, referring to Friday's commemoration. But, he added, "It's pretty sad to me because I remember my friends that I lost in the war."

ALL BALL NERVE CENTER — We're ba-ack!
NBA training camps have convened, exhibition games are underway, and we all know what that means: The return of MUSCLEWATCH.
Before we get to the muscles, what, you may ask, is MUSCLEWATCH? Basically, it began decades ago when my friend Matt and I noticed our local paper would always report that players had gained 15 pounds of MUSCLE in the off-season. No matter the sport, it was never 12 pounds, never 16, never 9, never 18, but it always seemed to be "15 pounds of muscle." So we began keeping an eye on the papers looking for references to the magic 15 pounds of MUSCLE. Eventually, MUSCLEWATCH became about more than just the "15 pounds of muscle" and more about guys who had either gained or lost a lot of weight. Previous winners include Thaddeus Young and Rudy Gay.
And remember, MUSCLEWATCH cannot be successful without your help. The most effective way to let us here at MUSCLEWATCH HQ know if you see any MUSCLEWATCH news is to tweet and use the hashtag #MUSCLEWATCH.
Also, for what it's worth, we need numbers. If you're going to be vague, that's not MUSCLEWATCH. I'm talking to you, Bulls GM Gar Forman…
Hey. we're all glad Derrick Rose "looks terrific," but if you want to play MUSCLEWATCH, we need actual digits.
Now, let's get swole …

Attorney General Criticized For Law Enforcement Remark
The Justice Department is defending Attorney General Jeff Sessions' use of the term "Anglo-American heritage." Sessions made the comment yesterday during a speech to the National Sheriffs Association. A Justice Department spokesman pointed out that Anglo-American law is a common legal term to describe the shared legal heritage between England and America. The term prompted some Democratic lawmakers to cry foul.
Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii said he didn't see any purpose behind the term other than to pit Americans against each other.

Selena Gomez Explains Her Tattoo + Ring From Justin Bieber
Selena Gomez is shedding some light on her ring from Justin Bieber and on her first tattoo. The first things she'd like to clarify: The ring isn't an engagement band, and the tat's not a heart!
Gomez actually got a tiny music note inked on her wrist, an ode to the importance of music in her life. She and the Scene are on a break so she can do more movies, so perhaps it's a reminder to her fans that she's still a songstress at heart.
Gomez talked to Access Hollywood about her ink (quotes via the Daily Mail). "It's a music note. Everybody thought that it was a heart for some reason, but music is a big influence in my life," she dished. "I was named after a singer, I'm a singer and a lot of other personal reasons, so, that's what I got."
As for her bling? Jelena fans, don't get ahead of yourselves! It's not an engagement ring nor is it even a promise ring, she revealed. "No, no — that's like almost a friendship ring," Gomez said. "It's just for fun." Good thing, too — Biebs isn't even 18 til Thursday!

April 17, 2006
This year's Wabash College Senior Art Majors Exhibit has some interesting displays and impressive artisans.
The exhibition opened with a reception in the Eric Dean Gallery in the Fine Arts Center, and runs through May 14. Gallery hours are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday and 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday. Admission is free and open to the public.
Each year the display serves as a rite of passage for graduating art students. This year's crop is Tim Parker, Adam Miller, David Murphy and Billy Whited. Each offers his own unique background and perspective to his specific medium.
Parker has been a football player far longer than he's been making sculptures. In fact he only took one art class at Warren Central High School in Indianapolis. He came to Wabash attracted by its football program and rigorous academic standards. He found a home in the college's art department.
"It's the ability to work with my hands and the craftsmanship, and all the tedious details I'm used to putting into my work," Parker said of what endeared him to sculpturing (pictured on the right).
For his senior exhibit, Parker has four figures representing hip-hop, his cultural background. They're set within historic backdrops, of time periods he's come to appreciate through his studies.
"It's kind of an ironic twist I have going, with two different eras," Parker said.
"He's a quite talented man," said Prof. Greg Huebner, art department chair. "He has tremendous drafting/drawing ability, and has a good means of translating the visible world into either two-dimensional or three-dimensional form."
Miller is a painter. He's also colorblind. Normally the two don't accommodate each other. In Miller's case, he considers the condition more an advantage than burden.
"I have a more unbiased approach when I come into (painting)," said Miller, who was into drawing before he came to Wabash. "I don't have the idea in my head of what would work with this, what would not. It gives me the option to experiment more."
He has eight abstract paintings ready for show. Miller's also untraditional in that he rarely uses a brush conventionally, but to throw paint at the canvas. Drips, pours and splatters are still more of his common means.
"I got interested in how you can put different colors together for just the way they look," said Miller, who's attending school at Daytona Beach for automotive motorcycle design following graduation. "Most people see complementary colors — this one looks good with that one — but I more like the action that's created with them." "I really didn't find out (he was colorblind) until probably his sophomore year," Huebner said. "I know people who aren't colorblind that don't work with color as well as he does."
Other forms at the 2006 Senior Art Majors Exhibit include Murphy's ceramics and Whited's kinetic installation (photo right). Murphy's technique is to work his clay with no preconceived notion of how it should turn out. A kinetic installation includes multiple media. Whited's senior project combines toy-like creatures and a fascination with flight to touch on larger societal consequences.
It's a culmination of years of study and vigorous creation. The performers don't take it lightly.
"I've been in the art studio every day for the past two months," Parker said. "It's been stressful, too, just making sure I make deadline. I'm actually still working on my pieces, trying to finish the touch-up work. It'll be down to the wire, but when it's all said and done, it'll be a good show and I'll have a big smile on my face."
Coggeshall is a reporter for the Crawfordsville Journal Review.

Just days after a lightsaber-wielding flash mob invaded Bristol, a slew of Starfleet Officers descended upon London on to celebrate the release of Star Trek Online.
Organizers claimed it was the largest gathering of begarbed Trekkies ever, but how many showed?
This Valentine's Day, 99 Trek fans showed up to the London Star Trek MMO event clad in cosplay - that number seems a tad but suspect, but regardless, it's nice to see unabashed Trek fans taking it to the streets. Plus, the world can never have too many Beverly Crushers. Well, unless they're evil, alternate dimension Beverly Crushers. Who'd probably have goatees, I guess.
Also keep your eyes peeled for Jean-Luc Picard if he was seemingly played by Grant Morrison. Set all phasers to Barbelith!

Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports tweeted Thursday morning that the Angels and St. Louis Cardinals have discussed a trade that would send third baseman David Freese to Anaheim, a move that makes some sense for the Angels but would hardly address their most pressing need — starting pitching.
But knowing Angels General Manager Jerry Dipoto, who is far more aggressive and creative in trade talks than his two predecessors, Tony Reagins and Bill Stoneman, the guess here is that Freese is not Dipoto's only Cardinals target.
In starters Michael Wacha, Shelby Miller, Lance Lynn and Joe Kelly, St. Louis has the kind of young, inexpensive arms that the Angels, who are already pushing up against next year's $189-million luxury tax threshold, covet.
And any one of the Cardinals' young relievers — Trevor Rosenthal, Carlos Martinez, Seth Maness and Kevin Siegrist — would immediately upgrade the Angels' bullpen.
Wacha, Rosenthal and Martinez are surely off limits, but St. Louis might be willing to part with Miller, Lynn, Kelly, Maness or Siegrist if the Angels would include shortstop Erick Aybar or center fielder Peter Bourjos, who have been linked with the Cardinals this winter. Angels slugger Mark Trumbo would probably yield an even better return.
Losing the switch-hitting and slick-fielding Aybar would be a huge blow for the Angels, who don't have a major-league ready replacement and whose top shortstop prospect, Eric Stamets, played in 2013 at Class-A Inland Empire.
But Dipoto could fill shortstop with a temporary stop-gap. Prime free-agent targets Stephen Drew and Jhonny Peralta wouldn't come cheap, but Dipoto could look to swing another deal with a team such as Arizona, which is deep at shortstop with Didi Gregorius, Chris Owings and Cliff Pennington.
Freese, 30, had a down year offensively, hitting .262 with a .340 on-base percentage, .381 slugging percentage and nine home runs, and though he's considered a solid defender, he was often removed in the late innings of games for defensive purposes.
But Freese began 2013 on the disabled list because of a back strain, and the pain lingered throughout the season. He was a post-season hero in 2011, winning National League Championship Series and World Series most valuable player awards during the Cardinals' run to the title, and he had a .293/.372/.467 slash line with 20 homers in 2012.
The Angels traded third baseman Alberto Callaspo to Oakland in July and do not appear very enthusiastic about their three top candidates to replace him, Chris Nelson, Luis Jimenez and Grant Green.

Hill Climb Heats Up!
The Mt Ashland Hillclimb Run this weekend was a huge success, in 28 year's the run had never seen so many participants and dusty shoes. In the end, Rogue Valley Runner's posted a number of top finishes. Store employee's Ixel Sanchez, Darcy Kleiman, and Ian Torrence found out why so many people shy away from this monster run, 5,500 feet in 13 miles! John Leuthold and Neil Olsen both finished in the top 15 along with Ian and Hal, as did fellow ultrarunner's John Anderson and Lewis Taylor who traveled far and wide to participate in this unique race. The Mail Tribune covered the run and had a phenomenal write-up as can be seen below. Do we have to wait until next year?
ASHLAND — Bob Julian jokingly referred to them as "those darn mountain goats."
They were actually nationally-ranked, professional cross country skiers from Bend, and they ruled the 28th annual Mt. Ashland Hill Climb Run on Saturday.
"We're used to really hard, uphill climbs for long periods of time, but that was definitely the hardest run I've ever been in." — Brayton Osgood, winner of Mt. Ashland Hill Climb Run.
Brayton Osgood, 26, won the grueling 13.3-mile run that started at Lithia Park and ended at the summit of Mt. Ashland in 1 hour, 57 minutes and 14 seconds.
Ashland's Hal Koerner, 31, the defending champion and the winner of the Western States 100-mile ultra marathon in June, pulled even with Osgood with a couple miles remaining but Osgood found another gear while scaling the final, brutally steep ski runs between the Mt. Ashland lodge and the finish line at the top of the mountain.
Koerner completed the race five minutes faster than last year but settled for second in 1:57:56.
Zach Violett, 25, another Bend-based cross county skier, took third in 1:58:19.
Two other members of the Bend group known as XC Oregon — J.D. Downing and Colin Mahood — finished ninth and 13th, respectively, while the group's Evelyn Dong and Sarah Max went 1-3 among the women.
"We're used to really hard, uphill climbs for long periods of time," said Osgood, who didn't even seem out of breath as he conquered the top of the Tempest ski run to reach the finish line. "But that was definitely the hardest run I've ever been in."
Asked what would prompt a person to compete in a run that goes uphill virtually the entire way, gaining 5,600 feet in elevation, Osgood laughed and said: "That's a good question. Maybe just being able to talk about it the next day and having people say, 'You did what?'"
Osgood, who grew up in Vermont, and Violett, who hails from the Lake Tahoe area, are ranked among the top 15 cross country skiers in the country and are aiming for the Olympics.
"This is one of the best training exercises we could do," said Violett, a former standout skier at the University of Alaska-Anchorage. "Working out that hard for two hours does wonders for your body. You're in a steady state of pain, but once it's over, you feel good."
The XC Oregon skiers worked out at Diamond Lake Friday, using custom-made roller skates while wearing their Nordic boots, and planned another workout near Crater Lake on their way home.
Koerner, no slouch himself when it comes to challenging fitness activities — he runs a dozen ultra-marathons a year — started conservatively and was in sixth place at the halfway point. He put on a burst the last few miles and pulled even with Osgood shortly before reaching the ski lodge.
"He (Koerner) came out of nowhere," said Violett.
Koerner had visions of defending his title, but he was no match for Osgood on the steep ski runs.
"I gave it a go but my quads (quadricep muscles) said no," said Koerner, who moved to Ashland from Seattle 11/2 years ago to open a running store. "He (Osgood) had a fantastic push up that steep pitch."
Koerner has competed in an uphill half-marathon on Pike's Peak in Colorado that starts at 7,000 feet elevation and ends at 14,000 feet.
"To have a race here that mirrors that one is awesome," he said.
Julian, meanwhile, had the lead with about 31/2 miles to go but then, he said, "All the mountain goats took over."
"Mountain runners are a different breed," he added.
Julian, a two-time runner-up in the event, wound up 11th in 2:07:0 as he struggled to get past the lodge and up the final ascent.
"I don't think this is as hard as a marathon," Julian, 39, said. "It doesn't tear you up, but you use up so much energy. My mistake today was not using the aide stations enough. You lose time at them, but you end up losing more time out on the course if you're not well-hydrated and fed."
Dong, the women's winner and 17th overall finisher in 2:17, said endurance trumped speed during Saturday's taxing run.
"You don't need much speed in this race," she said, "just a strong pair of legs and lungs."
Top 15 Finishers
1, Brayton Osgood, 1:57.14; 2, Hal Koerner, 1:57.56; 3, Zach Violett, 1:58.19; 4, John Anderson, 2:00.44; 5, John Swain, 2:01.56; 6, Lewis Taylor, 2:03.04; 7, Andrew Stevens, 2:03.34; 8, John Leuthold, 2:04.38; 9, J.D. Downing, 2:05.20. 10, Andy James, 2:06.12.

Another startling look into the mindset of the administration during the ongoing budget negotiations came out of the Sunday morning talk circuit today. This one was picked up by Robert Costa at The Corner and involves senior White House aide Dan Pfeiffer during an interview with George Stephanopoulos. George asks him why the President is still engaged in hostage taking when it comes to the very modest bits of entitlement reform contained in Obama's upcoming budget, and why they shouldn't just put them in place if they believe in them. The answer is telling. (Video follows)
PFEIFFER: Well, there are a couple of things here, George. First is, the House has passed a budget, the Senate passed a budget. The hope is that the House and Senate can come together and work to try to find a compromise. The president's focus, in addition to the regular order process that members of Congress say they want, is to try to find a caucus of common sense, folks who are willing to compromise, that don't think compromise is a dirty word, and try to get something done. And – but if Speaker Boehner's position, as he said it in that statement, remains his position, then we will not make progress, because what this president will not do is come in, right after getting reelected, and enact a Romney economic plan, which is what the Republicans in the House are proposing.
Yes, he really did just say, "… enact a Romney economic plan." And keep in mind, this is a staffer from the same team who was saying, right up until two weeks before the election, that Mitt Romney has no economic plan.
I often wondered what would happen if and when the expiration date was ever reached for blaming Bush. It seems that the question has been answered. We'll blame the guy who lost the election. Brilliant!

If you don't know what Fate is, here's the link the downloads.
This game will take place in the same Brikverse as all the Brikwars games, Warhead is splintered, the Immortal War is still a thing that is happening (Including Zombie Zulu Dawn), and so on; but using your choice of Fate Core or Fate Accelerated.
The plot? You and each of your respective squads (NPC's the you write-up, but I control) have each be tasked w/ the exploration and recon of a newly discovered space-faring nation (the fact they've achieved Vast empire status before be noticed is still being examined be the higher ups). This region of space has come to your respective factions' attentions because there has been a dangerously high level of peace and is getting more peaceful by the second. Your mission: confront this menaces to Minifig society and let them know of their wrong doing by mitigating conflict. Ironically, your orders also state that violence is to be reserved as a last resort, or until the mission is a success, whichever comes first.
Fate of the Brikverse
For all those games that happen to not be BrikWars

Cache Maine
There was a nice piece during the 5:30 report on WABI TV 5 News tonight, which gave many positive comments about caching. The reporter also followed along with a group of students searching around the Fields Pond Nature Center for Parmachenee's Nature Walk (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=ab930dad-8958-4e5d-9e8a-20c5f889d80d) cache. The group learned to use a compass and a GPSr, donned snowshoes and headed for the cache with their pockets full of treasures. Unfortunately, due to snow cover, they did not make a find. Hopefully, these new cachers will try again after the melt.

Drone Valves from Highland Reeds – set of three. These drone valves are screw adjustable which means that they can be accurately set to suit your blowing strength and don't fluctuate with bad blowing. Benefits are:
[unordered_list style="tick"]
- Assisting with strike in and cut off
- Accurately set to suit your blowing strength
- Regulate air flow to the drones giving a much steadier drone sound
- A real help for pipe majors who need a uniform sound from their unsteady blowers

Best system I have tried so far!
Thank you so much for sending me a new bass reed and the rubber connectors. Fast shipping. The Bass is perfect, steady and with little adjustments it is playing very well. Thanks for the amazing after sale service,and excellent tips. Also, your … MCS2 is the best system I have tried so far – very light, no dust, and very effective. Keeps my reeds dry and steady.
Best price/performance available!
This is the first time I have ever been asked by a pipe drone reed manufacturer if I was satisfied with the product. However, I'm not shocked, instead, I am very impressed. As impressed as I am with the reeds. I absolutely love the sound they create and delighted with the perfect visual set-up of the drones I have been able to set. Another significant plus, your reeds are probably the best price/performance currently available. I suspect you hear this a lot. Congratulation on a great product, my piper friends are certainly aware of my delight with my new incredible drone reeds.
Thank you.
Service was first class, will buy again!
I have tried other synthetic reeds and so far your's are the best. From an engineering point of view I liked the design, especially the flat tongue and cut away body and the condensation groove. They are easy to set up, very steady and consistent in tone, stay in tune longer, and to my ear sound more like the cane reeds I grew up with. I blow the pipes nearly every day and I find that from one day to the next, the drones need only minimal adjustment. Your service was first class … and I shall certainly buy from you again.
No frustration with these!
I am very pleased with the drone reeds. I put them in and set them up in about 20 minutes. It is very different from my previous experience with other brands…..hours of frustration.
Tuned me in record time!
Have been using the Balance Tone Reeds for several weeks now. When I went to practice I did not say anything about the reeds but noticed the P/M seemed a bit surprised by the steadiness and great tone, tuned me in record time. A lot to be said for these great reeds.
Not the most expensive, but the best I ever bought!
I always thought that the most expensive synthetic reeds also would be the best. That was a great mistake. Balance Tone are not the most expensive, but they are the best I ever bought. They are amazing!
Thank you very much!
Exceed everything you say about them!
Last week I installed my Balance Tone drone reeds. Wow! I didn't know my pipes could sound so rich. They meet or exceed everything you say about them.
Lowest maintenance and steadiest bagpipe I've ever had!
Taking only seconds to remove and reinstall before and after each performance, this hassle free moisture control system has greatly increased my playing duration with no noticeable change in tonal quality or volume … definitely the lowest maintenance and steadiest bagpipe I've ever had.
The bridles arrived three weeks ago … I placed the bridles. I adjusted them then balanced the drones and adjusted my reed. WOW !!!!!
My early cocus wood David Glen pipes are again happy. Your reeds cause these pipes to hum!
Winner of Highland Society of London's Gold Medal says…
The Balance Tone drone reeds are an excellent product. I won the Highland Society of London's Gold Medal at the Northern Meeting in 2005 playing a full set of Balance Tone drone reeds and my students play them as well. They are easy to work with, take a minimal amount of air, and are very steady.
Made my life as a Piper so much easier!
Just had to write to congratulate you on an excellent product! I recently purchased the … moisture control system from you. Last night I played at an RAF Officers Mess Burns Night and was incredibly impressed with the performance … I am THE wet blower and having played for well over two hours (in total) my reeds were as dry as when then started. You really have made my life as a piper so much easier. I wish you every success with the system, you deserve it.
Thrilled to bits!
Thrilled to bits with all the reeds. Thank you so much; its great to deal with someone who cares.
Second to none!
Your Balance Tone reeds are second to none. I've recommended them myself to people here in Australia.
Making these my permanent reeds!
Bruce, thank you for the help – I did as you indicated and after a few adjustments, they worked fine. I used them in a competition last weekend and they sounded very nice. I even had a pipe major help tune me and he also thought they sounded very mellow and rich. I plan on making these my permanent reeds in part because they sound so good and in part because they are so easy to play and to tune. Again, thank you for the help – it made all of the difference.
You thought of everything!
I have been playing with the reeds and may I say that I`m very impressed you seem to have thought of every thing.
Easy, air efficient, nice sound and timbre!
I've been playing Bruce "Balance tone" drones for 8 years and I used to play Hepburn cane reeds. I found balance tone reeds very efficient and got the same sound and harmonics as with cane reeds. These reeds are easy, air efficient, easy to set, give nice sound and timbre, never stop due to moisture even during a long performance as ceol mor, all in all, Bruce has achieved a terrific level with his reeds. Well done Bruce an thanks a lot for yer grea' job!
Thrilled with performance!
I bought a set of your drone reeds at the Winter Storm event in Kansas City, Missouri this month. I also bought the drying system for my bagpipe. So far, I have only installed the drone reeds but I wanted to let you know how thrilled I am with their performance. I did not expect the results I am getting. The air efficiency is incredible and my bagpipe is so nice to play. It makes me realize how hard I was working before. Initially, the volume was a bit of a shock but now I love it!
Best performance ever heard out the band!
I just wanted to let you know that I recently purchased a set of your Balance Tone reeds…..AWESOME SOUND!! Being as I live up here in Flagstaff, we are always being chided about having lousy tone. We did a Burns dinner last weekend and Chris thought that this was one of the best performances he's ever heard out of the band. Essentially my tone was able to match that of the higher band. Strike in/ cut offs were solid.
Struggled with previous reeds, playing yours straight away!
Thanks for the four chanter reeds that arrived today – very promptly!! I do not play the pipes a lot now and have been struggling with some reeds that I bought some time ago that were supposedly "soft" or "easy". I was getting nowhere, they are very hard and even with a lot of scraping don't improve much. Yours arrived, a brief wetting and they play straight away!! Wonderful! I can now pipe the haggis in on Saturday with a lot more confidence than I had a day or two ago.
Playing beautifully with almost no tweaking!
The reeds arrived less than half an hour ago and are playing beautifully in the McCallums already with almost no tweaking. They are brilliant with my nice solo chanter. Many thanks,
Best thing since sliced bread!
Received the drone reeds,amazed how good they are. I am 70+ and they have gave me a boost,now enjoying blowing. Best thing since sliced bread!
Play longer, perfect cutoffs, drones always strike in!
I've got to say that the Moisture Control System works great. I can play longer, I have perfect cutoffs, and my drones always strike in. I've recommended to many of my friends.
Simply the best!
The Reeds are just the best, simple!
Playing is now a pleasure!
Just a note to let you know how much I'm enjoying the … Balance Tone Drone reeds I purchased from you at the "Worlds". Playing is now always a pleasure with drones starting and stopping with ease.
Strike in every time and do not stop!
I am very pleased with the reeds as they strike in every time and do not stop – in fact, almost idiot-proof as far as the youngsters in the band are concerned.
Great product, great advice!
Excellent advice … I will use the drone stock method from now on for your MCS2. I did manage after writing last night to get them adjusted and they are just great.
Pipe carrier is a great idea and handy thing to have!
While participating in the Tartan Day Parade on April 6th in NYC, I became aware of your pipe carrier. What a great idea and a handy thing to have. I was given your e-mail address and have checked your web site and now enclosing a cheque for a Hand Free.
Utterly thrilled!
I am utterly thrilled with the reeds I purchased. I have passed on the word and will continue to do so. Thank you again.
Can not believe how great they sound!
I have just put your new moisture control system MCS2 into my pipes and can not believe how great they sound.
Would not put a cane reed in my pipe again!
I put in the full set of your reeds and after only 10 minutes to set up and settle I played Old Men of theShells. The pipe never moved. Don't think I would put a cane reed in my pipe again. Can you please send me another 2 sets as I want to put a set in my other pipe and have a back-up set.
Rock-steady, full of harmonics!
Just a short note to tell you how delighted I am with your Balance Tone reeds. I only played cane before and I have not been attracted so far by synthetic drone-reeds, but I must admit that your reeds are great, rock-steady, and full of harmonics, in particular on my MacDougall set. I will make publicity here in Brittany!
Reeds fantastic. It's a pity they weren't available 60 years ago; it would have been a breeze.
New piper finds them easier to strike with no necessary adjustments!
I am more than happy with the Balance Tones, as a new Piper, still in the learning stage, I find the reeds easier to strike in than cane reeds and once set I have not had to make any further adjustments. The tone sounds good and fits in with the band (South Cheshire Pipe Band) that I play with well.
Hi Bruce ! hope ye're
Hi Bruce ! hope ye're fine You really bring a very clever solution for moisture capture, I used to now about the venturi effect, as I' ve worked a part of my career as a storeman, in car spare parts trade So I know that the venturi effect used in carburators can provocate condensation and even freezing by acceleration of the air flow, but I never thought that phenomenon could occur in a moisture control system, in fact it's of the most logical, but it was necessary to think of it In addition, as I'm a current user of Balance tone, I' m very interested by yer resonance reeds To finish with, I'm still a proselyte of your products Well done pipe major !
Switching all our pipes to your reeds!
We had a good test this summer while touring Northern Ontario, where some of the weather was cool and very wet. My concern was their ability to resist moisture build up from condensation. I am happy to report they worked out admirably and resisted to the bitter end under extremely poor conditions. I have been switching all our pipes to your reeds as the occasion arises. Good tone, low air consumption, easy start/stop. Tuning and volume control in all types of drones is excellent.
The only ones that work!
Your drone reeds were the only ones that worked in my Kilberry pipes! Thank you very much.
No moisture problems
I am really happy with your moisture tube. I have been playing this for three weeks now and it is currently my favorite system. I am able to play for over an hour without any moisture problems.. I'm going to recommend this system to my students from now on.
Very simple to setup and very easy to adjust and tune!
Having ordered your drone reeds I have found them very simple to set up and very easy to adjust/tune in. Whilst my views may not be of value to your more experienced clients it certainly is the case that the plastic drone reeds produce a very clear and steady sound and are not as temperamental as the traditional type. As you will appreciate this is a big help for enthusiasts such as myself.
I liked the idea of the rubber flexi-joint on the MCS2 which really made me decide to try it and it arrived just in time. I fitted it right away and I am very pleased with it. I played for quite a while and the reeds stayed bone dry, have played regularly since then and have no more problems with wet reeds. Also your Balance Tone reeds are very good and I'm very impressed with them they give me a good consistent sound with very little tuning time. Brilliant.
No setting up … and spot on
Received both sets of bridles today and both sets work fine. They took no setting up and are spot on … Also using your drone valves another excellent product. Thanks again and appreciate the extremely fast good service.
Every single judge I played before this year loved the drones!
I just had to drop you a line to let you know that it's official – EVERY SINGLE judge I played before this year loved the drones!!! Several of them asked me about them after the competitions, and one even swore they were cane until I showed him otherwise!

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Restaurant Chain Ignores Repeated Complaints of Sexual Harassment by Female Employees, Federal Agency Charges
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – Rafael's Italian Restaurant, a Tennessee restaurant chain, violated federal law by subjecting a class of female employees, including some teenagers, to sexual harassment at a Tullahoma, Tenn., restaurant, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit announced today.
The EEOC charged that the company ignored repeated complaints of sexual harassment made by several women to management starting as far back as 2005. The EEOC alleged that male kitchen workers repeatedly subjected female employees, two of whom were teens at the time, to egregious acts of sexual harassment including crude comments, requests for sex, and physical touching -- which encompassed using vegetables to simulate sodomy and to hit the victims between their legs. Although several of the women made repeated complaints to the store manager and the store owner about the treatment, management failed to address the problem.
Failure to correct known sexual harassment, whether by a co-worker or customer, violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The EEOC filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, Winchester Division, Civil Action No. 4:10-cv-00070, after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement. The suit seeks monetary relief in the form of back pay and compensatory and punitive damages, reinstatement, and an injunction against future discrimination.
"Allowing serial harassers to repeatedly victimize female employees without facing consequences is plainly and simply illegal," said EEOC Memphis District Director Katharine Kores. "Restaurant owners and managers must take serious action to stop this sort of abuse when they receive complaints of sexual harassment from their employees, especially when these complaints are coming from teenagers who are in the work force for the first time in their lives."
Rafael's Italian Restaurant is one of several restaurants operated by Santos Macias across Tennessee.
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

The ABC has apologised to conservative News Corp Australia columnist Andrew Bolt over accusations he is racist that were aired on the Q&A program last week.
In a newspaper column Bolt later said the attack by indigenous academic Marcia Langton "may have been finally too much for me."
"This time I was so bruised by Q&A that I didn't go into work on Tuesday. I couldn't stand any sympathy — which you get only when you're meant to feel hurt," he wrote.
In a discussion about racial discrimination laws last Monday night, Professor Langton said Bolt had heaped "foul abuse" on indigenous woman Misty Jenkins, which led to her withdrawal from private life.
"Nothing that he said about her was political. It was simply racial abuse," Professor Langton said on the program.
"He argued that she had no right to claim that she was Aboriginal and, like most fools who put this argument in public, we are expected to deny our parents and our grandparents because somebody believes in race theories."
Professor Langton later backed down from her comments in an interview with Bolt and radio broadcaster Steve Price on 2GB on Wednesday.
Professor Langton told Bolt that while she doesn't think he is racist, "he's playing with racist ideas. He goes too far to the line".
"I will apologise to you," she said.
In his online blog for News Corp Australia, Bolt published most of the transcript from the interview, drawing attention to the relevant sentences, and challenging the ABC to "correct the record".
"Langton's slurs devastated me and were false and defamatory. The damage should be repaired as best the ABC can," Bolt wrote.
The ABC, through Q&A host Tony Jones, said on Monday night's show that Professor Langton had since publicly apologised "so, as a result, the ABC also apologises for broadcasting her remarks".
In September 2011 a Federal Court judge found that Bolt breached section 18C of the Federal Racial Discrimination Act, a law which the government has pledged to repeal.
Section 18C, now known colloquially as "Bolt's law", protects people from "offensive behaviour because of race, colour or national or ethnic origin".
Mr Bolt's series of blog posts that were found to have breached the law suggested that "fair-skinned" indigenous people took advantage of their heritage to make political or career gains.
In campaign promises leading up to the federal election last year, Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Attorney-General George Brandis said they would repeal section 18C.
On the program with Professor Langton on Monday last week, Senator Brandis said he still intended to amend the Act.
"Regardless of whether you agree with what Mr Bolt said ... our view is that it's not the role of the Government to tell people what they are allowed to think and it's not the role of the Government to tell people what opinions they are allowed to express."
