Though the Red Sox finished with a losing record for the first time in the decade, 1919 was a busy year at Fenway Park. Perhaps the most memorable non-baseball event at the park was a rally in June, during which future Irish President Eamon De Valera delivered a speech to a capacity Fenway Park crowd.
Record: 66-71, 6th in American League
Manager: Edward G. Barrow
Attendance: 417,291
For the first time since 1908, the Red Sox finished below .500, going 66-71 en route to a distant sixth place finish.
Boston's top two pitchers were Herb Pennock (16-8, 2.71 ERA) and Allen Russell (10-4, 2.52 ERA). On May 20, Pennock pitched to the minimum 27 batters, despite giving up three singles. Babe Ruth won nine games but primarily played the outfield and was a star in the batter's box. In 1919, Ruth set a Major League Baseball single-season record with 29 home runs, four of which were grand slams.
The season started nicely with back-to-back shutouts, but it didn't take long to deteriorate and dissension soon permeated the clubhouse. On July 13, Carl Mays bolted the team mid-game, angry at the sloppy fieldwork behind him. Frazee traded Mays to the Yankees soon thereafter, triggering a lengthy controversy with American League President Ban Johnson.
During the September 1919 Boston Police Strike, there was a report that a gang of gunmen had travelled from New York planning to rob Fenway Park. With the local police unavailable, the state militia and volunteer policemen lined the streets outside the park before the team's September 11 doubleheader. Three days later, there was serious discussion about the Red Sox playing all their remaining "home" games at Brooklyn's Ebbets Field until the police strike was resolved.
September 20, 1919 was Babe Ruth Day at Fenway Park, and he hit his 27th home run of the season in what turned out to be his last game in Boston as a player for the Red Sox. In a sign of the rift between Ruth and the club, Ruth complained that Harry Frazee had made the star's wife pay for her own ticket. On the day after Christmas, Frazee sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees, borrowing $350,000 as part of the deal and putting up Fenway Park as collateral.
On August 23, 1919, Boston played New York at Fenway Park but it wasn't the Red Sox, Braves, Yankees, Dodgers, or Giants who took the field. Instead, the Boston Navy Yard edged the New York Navy Yard, 6-4.

Fenway Park hosted a diverse roster of non-baseball events in 1919. In late June, future Irish President Eamon De Valera delivered a rousing speech in support of Irish independence. The Odd Fellows returned to Fenway Park on September 7 for a mass and ceremony trumpeting America's solidarity with England. In addition, several football games were played at the ballpark in 1919, with a particularly busy day on November 27. That day, two football games were played and a 10-mile race was held. The race started at Fenway Park and ended back at the ballpark during halftime of the St. Alphonsus vs. Pere Marquette football game.

*Started in the 1910s, a late May memorial service coinciding with the Memorial Day weekend was often held at Fenway Park through the mid-20th Century.
Thousands were turned away on a sunny Sunday afternoon as the cause of Irish freedom was celebrated at a mammoth Fenway Park ceremony highlighted by a rousing speech by US Senator David I. Walsh and future Irish President Eamon De Valera.
While introducing De Valera, Walsh remarked, "In form, face, intellect and the cause he represents, De Valera reminds me of Abraham Lincoln, the Great Emancipator, and as that great man took the shackles off the black man, the Lincoln of Ireland will take the shackles of tyranny and oppression from Ireland." (Boston Post, June 29, 1919)
De Valera's first words in Gaelic were drowned out by ear splitting applause and once he spoke in English the crowd continued to participate shouting the response "Lies, Lies" to De Valera's speculation that many in Ireland thought America had forsaken the cause of Irish freedom.
Among the resolutions unanimously resolved at the gathering by Walsh and endorsed by De Valera were:
That we return thanks to the United States Senate for their American patriotic and sympathetic actions in instructing the American delegates at Paris to bring the case of Ireland, through its representatives to the peace conference, that her case be heard.
That we declare ourselves unreservedly in favor of the independence of Ireland and demand that our government recognize the Irish Republic.
That we register our opposition to any purported League of Nations which does not protect all American rights and ideals and which binds us to guarantee the territorial integrity of the British and Japanese empires.

You note that while the other group is also wearing the long metal claws, neither group is brandishing them at each other.

Mike Garrigan Interview
Tom Skinner sent us the following interview with Mike Garrigan, who last month won the National Elite Men's cyclo-'Cross title after an extremely hard-fought battle with Greg Reain and Max Plaxton:
I just thought I'd send you this quick interview I did with Mike Garrigan! He's a fellow rider and buddy of mine and I was a bit confused when he didn't get much attention after winning Canadian Cyclo-'Cross Nationals this year. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that he's never really been on a big team and is usually a one-man show. Nevertheless, Mike recently won Ontario Provincial champs as well so I thought I'd tell people what his plans are for the future and let everyone know how he keeps managing to win the big races. Doing stuff like this can't be bad for the sport either; pleasing the sponsor lets cyclists like Mike focus on their training!
TS: So first off, you won the biggest 'Cross race in Canada this year! Was that a big goal for you earlier in the year and tell us about the win.
MG: Yeah, I was so stoked to experience Worlds in Belgium last year. After coming home from that I knew 'Cross Nationals was going to be a much bigger focus for me this time around. It was in the back of my mind most of the MTB season for sure. It wasn't until September that I really started gearing my rides towards that day though. Regarding the win, it just felt so good to know I wasn't totally crazy; the little voices in my head had been telling me I could win.
TS: How did the last lap pan out? Were you in front the whole time or where did you make your move?
MG: The last few laps had lots of attacking! We went back and forth quite a bit. It became obvious that neither of us [Garrigan or Reain] was going down without a good fight as we started the last lap. I dug deep to get by on a re-mount section midway through the last lap, then I had to gas it hard as we hit the power sections. I knew if I could open up a gap on those then I could be more conservative on the final technical section so I wouldn't muck it up. It felt as though I had unlimited power on those last few sections. It was awesome.
TS: We know you won Provincials this past weekend too but how did that race play itself out? And how were the conditions?
MG: Yeah, that was a blast! The course was so fun! I came the day before to check things out and ended up wanting to ride all day. The course had almost everything; ice, slush, sand and slick mud. I love that stuff. As for the racing, I felt pretty solid and it went well. I was motivated to ride well that day. Andrew (Watson) had beaten me the week earlier so I knew I had to be in better form to win Provincials.
TS: What kind of training do you do in 'Cross season? What are some of your harder workouts and are you still training now?
MG: I really like mixing things up. When the weather is like it was today with snow and ice I try to get out for longer endurance rides (around 4 hours). I always feel more confident with my skills after rides like that. I really like challenging conditions. If it's just plain cold then I will ride the rollers and add 10 minutes of jogging for every 50 minutes I spend on the rollers, going back and fourth to keep it fresh. I also do a bit of 'Cross training; hiking or snowshoeing or whatever. I do lots of stuff.
As for harder stuff, I love doing sprints. I will set out to do a certain amount of time at max effort, say 5 minutes. So, over the course of an hour I will do all sorts of different efforts between 3 seconds and 30 seconds mixing it up, all maximum. Also I will do workouts where most of the effort is tempo pace, adding some 15-30 second max efforts of a specific 'Cross skill or some sort of agility training.
TS: So will 'Cross be an even bigger focus for you now that you're Canadian champ?
MG: Yeah for sure, next year I will start earlier with the specific training. Also I will be looking to get two bikes and all the proper gear. I will be more prepared with a full race schedule and more goals laid out. Should be fun!
TS: Are you planning any time off in the next couple months? Or do you have any plans to race the World Champs in January?
MG: Nope, no more time off. It's been kind of a weird season. After Nationals I really wanted to take some time off. I also wanted to travel and experience some of the races in the U.S. so I did both. I just cruised the Interstates [highways] seeing the sights during the week and then raced on the weekends. It may not have been exactly what I had in mind for time off but I'm glad I did it. Up until racing Centennial Park here in Ontario a few weeks ago I was still just having some down time with the intention to start preparing for 'Cross Worlds in December. That changed after having a good duel with Andrew. I became very motivated to try and win Provincials last weekend. So training started two weeks ago. And now yes, I am preparing for Worlds. I would love to have a solid performance there.
TS: Do you have any plans for next year already? Any big goals, new races or major changes?
MG: More focus on MTB Nationals and on the MTB World Cups in Canada. Also Trans-Rockies with a very good, very fast old friend of mine.
TS: What do your sponsors Jetpower and Epic Ride do, and how did you get hooked up with them?
MG: Epic Ride bike shop is in Orangeville, Ontario where I started riding. The owner got me into riding. It's my local shop and where I order most of my gear from.
Jetpower is a new team that I am working to develop. It began with a gentleman who has helped me lots over the past few years. Stuff like travel expenses and cycling gear. If it wasn't for generous people or parents like Mr. Jette I don't know if you would see half the riders at the big events. I know that I wouldn't be there, or at least not in any type of shape. I'd love to ride for a factory team in the future, but hopefully I can keep improving with Jetpower because they have been great to me!
TS: I've heard about your 6 hour powercrank roller rides on Christmas Day. Are those true or does Steve [Neal - Mike's coach] make that stuff up to scare people?
MG: Ha, when did you hear that?! That's how rumours start. That was some time ago, but yes, I think it was more like 5.5 hours. Thanks for the flashback. Maybe I'll go for more this year. I'll let you know.
TS: Do you realize that if you were as good at golf as you are at biking that you would be a millionaire by now? You would probably even have a hot girlfriend like Tiger Woods.
MG: Who says I can't have a hot girlfriend? As far as the dough, it's obvious that golf is far more interesting to watch on TV. And that they obviously have much more cool stuff to sell... but let's not get into that now.
TS: Okay here's a different question for you. Last one; who do you think is the coolest guy on the Canadian racing circuit these days?
MG: I always used to look up to Geoff Kabush. Pure cool factor though, eh? Hmm. I'd have to say most of the Quebec riders are generally cooler than the rest of us. It always seems like they are having a better time if we go out after the races. Also, it's not any of the racers more so the organizers over there who always come up with the coolest ways of saying my last name. Every time I race in Québec I am blessed with a new last name. I love it!
TS: Well thanks Mikey! I hope the jersey opens a few more doors to let you keep doing what you're doing! Good luck training over the winter months and I hope you lay a beat-down to all the Belgians!
MG: Thanks!

It's clear from our conversations with customers around the world that we're in the early stages of a fundamental shift in business. It's the decade of collaboration. A time of flash communities and knowledge accidents. A time when video, virtualization, social media and mobility influence everything we do. A time when employees from any remote corner of an organization can provide the spark for your next important innovation.
But only if you set the stage for collaboration.
Building a collaborative organization isn't easy. It takes a transformative approach to culture, processes and technology—and an unwavering commitment from top to bottom. Do it and you will be rewarded with an energized organization that can adapt quickly to changing markets and deliver tangible results.
That's why I recently partnered with my colleague, Ron Ricci, Cisco's Vice President of Corporate Positioning, to write The Collaboration Imperative, a book that dives into the culture, process and technology dimensions of successful collaboration. It offers practical tips and strategies for making companies more collaborative and looks at how some of the world's leading companies are sharpening their collaboration edge.
We also introduce some surprising facts. For example, did you know that….
- The biggest barriers to collaboration are not technical—they are cultural and organizational in nature
- Collaboration can't be deployed; it must be embraced
- It's not enough to change roles; you have to change rewards
- Collaboration requires stronger personal communications skills
- Although collaboration is about decentralizing, it has to start at the top
- The average return on collaboration is four times a company's initial investment
Leave a comment to share your experiences as you embrace collaboration. Which best practices are you most proud of? What issues are you facing? And what lessons have you learned? Let's keep the conversation going…

Things can be pretty slow-going on the red planet for NASA's Mars rover Opportunity. Since January of 2004, the solar-powered Opportunity has been chugging along the planet's surface at a leisurely pace of 60 centimeters an hour, but there's exciting news on the horizon. Or rather, its horizon.
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has reported that Opportunity should reach its next long-term target, the rim of Mars's massive Endeavour crater, by sometime tonight. There, it will examine ancient Martian rocks, searching for any signs that life once existed on the planet.
Opportunity is headed for a site on the western rim of the crater called "Spirit Point" (named after NASA's Spirit rover, which NASA lost contact with in March of 2010, and is identical in design to Opportunity). The image below was snapped by Opportunity's onboard panoramic camera, and gives us a view of the rim from just over 300 feet away.
From NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory:
Endeavour offers the setting for plenty of productive work by Opportunity. The crater is 14 miles (22 kilometers) in diameter — more than 20 times wider than Victoria crater, which Opportunity examined for two years. Orbital observations indicate that the ridges along its western rim expose rock outcrops older than any Opportunity has seen so far. Spirit Point is at the southern tip of one of those ridges, "Cape York," on the western side of Endeavour.
Back in 2009, the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) discovered that the older, clay-bearing rocks along Endeavour's rim represented a totally new rock-type — one that could give us a glimpse of life (or lack thereof) on ancient Mars.
"The clays [we found] are not only indicative of abundant water, but also a watery environment more suitable for life," said Steve Squyres, professor of astronomy at Cornell University and the principal investigator for the science payload on NASA's Mars Exploration Rovers. Squyres and his colleagues believe this new rock-type may have once been more hospitable to life than any of the others encountered over the course Opportunity's 7-year tenure on the surface of Mars.
Opportunity has made pit stops at various points of interest on Mars since it landed there in January of 2004. By expanding the crater image above, you can track where Opportunity has driven in the last seven years, and get a sense of how enormous Endeavour crater is.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. - The Georgia Southwestern baseball team was unable to hold a 3-1 lead on Tuesday night at Auburn-Montgomery as the Senators scored two runs in the seventh inning and the deciding run in the ninth to defeat the Hurricanes, 4-3.
It was the first time in 11 opportunities this season that GSW was unable to get the win with after holding the lead through six innings.
The Hurricanes fall to 12-7 overall and Auburn-Montgomery improves to 14-12.
GSW jumped out to the early lead when Andrew Anderson slapped a bases-loaded single down the right-field line in the first inning to score John Duran.
AUM tied the game in the third behind a pair of singles and a GSW throwing error.
The Hurricanes put together a two-out rally in the sixth when Paschal Poston walked, Corey Benson singled up the middle, Stephen Gaylor walked and Beau Parker doubled down the left-field line to score two runs.
After being set down in order in the bottom half of the sixth, the Senators began their comeback in the seventh. AUM scored two runs behind two walks, an error and a single.
Brian Wheeler started the AUM ninth with a single to right field. The next batter, Chezz McCann, was unsuccessful on his sacrifice bunt attempt and Wheeler was thrown out at second. After Chris Clements struck out swinging, Jorden Johnson ended the ballgame when he found a gap in center field and brought McCann around from first to score the winning run.
Parker and Anderson led GSW batters with two hits apiece.
Wheeler finished 3-for-3 with a walk to lead AUM.
Hurricane starting pitcher Brandon Vazquez threw 6 1/3 innings, allowed three runs - two earned - and scattered six hits. He struck out two and walked one. Cameron Blinn came in for 1/3 of an inning and Stephen Daneman (1-1) takes the loss, allowing one run in two innings of action. Daneman struck out three and gave up two hits.
AUM starter Josh Smith tossed three innings and allowed four hits and one run. He struck out one and walked four. Nathan Brown (1-1) picks up his first win of the season after holding GSW scoreless over the final 1 2/3 innings. The Senators sent four pitchers to the hill.
Southwestern returns to Peach Belt Conference action on Saturday with a 1 p.m. doubleheader against No. 10 North Georgia at Hurricane Stadium.
Putting men on base: The Hurricanes have scored 35 runs over the their last six games on 61 hits, but it hasn't been the long ball bringing the runners around to score. GSW has 51 singles, nine doubles and a triple to go with 30 walks over that span.

A few weeks ago I called your attention in this forum to the way I and countless other Americans are being smitten by our smartphones and how we can find an app for just about anything.
No one will argue that the technology supporting smartphones—and tablets as well—is dramatically changing how we live and, more important, impacting the way we do our banking, especially how we make payments to vendors and even our friends.
In the March issue of Credit Union Magazine, my feature article, "A New Payments Paradigm," simply scratched the surface on what I see has become a very complex and oftentimes confusing landscape.
The growing sophistication of mobile apps and the impact of Big Data are teaming up to exert a force that will profoundly change our lifestyles—particularly in what we purchase and how we pay for it.
The key message for credit unions in this new world of payments: Be in the game.
Don't hide on the sidelines or allow other financial service providers to muscle you out of the way. Your member/owners—American consumers—want choice, ease of use, and access on a 24/7 basis.
Lagging behind in meeting these expectations while others are dangling new payment features before their eyes can't be tolerated. And there's no reason for credit unions to take a back seat to anyone.
Already, a growing number of CUSOs and trusted vendors are providing credit unions with the opportunities to meet and capitalize on the challenges mobility presents. Many were on hand to showcase their solutions during CUNA's Governmental Affairs Conference.
Working together cooperatively, asking the right questions, and listening to one another and to those who demonstrate expertise can prove to be a winning formula to position credit unions as trendsetters, rather than trend followers.
Check out my feature article. If you feel as strong as I do about credit unions and our future, I want to hear from you.
Post your comment below and let's get the conversation going—off the record.

|IBBIS National workshop
IBBIS National workshop
ESENIAS and the ESENIAS-TOOLS project were presented at the workshop on 'Invasive Alien Species Management: Review of Activities in Bulgaria'. The workshop was held on 25 February 2016, in Sofia. It was organised by the Institute of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Research, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (IBER-BAS), and the Executive Environment Agency, Ministry of Environment and Water of Bulgaria (ExEA), within the frame of the project BG03.PDD1 'Improving the Bulgarian Biodiversity Information System'(IBBIS), D-33-72/20.07.2015, Task 3: 'Development of a module for data collection and risk assessment of invasive alien species in Bulgaria', funded by the Financial Mechanism of European Economic Area 2009-2014.
The workshop was attended by representatives of national governmental and research institutions, including the Ministry of Environment and Water, ExEA, Regional Inspection of Environment and Water – Sofia, Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Bulgarian Food Safety Agency, Executive Agency of Fishery and Aquaculture, Executive Forest Agency (ExFA), Sofia Zoo, Botanical Garden Sofia, IBER-BAS, Sofia University, Agricultural University Plovdiv, and others.
The objectives of the workshop were: (1) to inform participants about the IBBIS project and tasks on invasive alien species (IAS); (2) to present activities of the institutions in Bulgaria related to IAS management; and (3) to discuss potential contribution of different institutions, represented at the workshop, to the implementation of the Regulation (EU) No 1143/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2014 on the prevention and management of the introduction and spread of invasive alien species. Furthermore, participants discussed current issues as a result of spread and impact of alien species, such as: Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Panicum capillare, Trachemys scripta elegans, and Myocastor coypus, in Bulgaria, as well as the availability of data on alien species collected by different institutions, possibilities for data exchange and collaboration, etc.
The IBBIS project is coordinated by ExEA and has 3 project partners: IBER-BAS, ExFA and the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA). IBER-BAS is leading the Task 3, which main goal is to develop IAS module/ functionality of the National Biodiversity Monitoring System for collecting, storing, retrieving and analysing data on alien species, in order to inform policy makers and raise public awareness in Bulgaria. This will include the development of software and tools, development and testing of methods for monitoring and risk assessment of alien species, and the creation of links and collaboration with ESENIAS and the ESENIAS database.

On April 27th, 2012, the United States Marine Corps will submit their Final Environmental Impact Study and light the fuse that starts a chain of events to close 160,000 acres of the Johnson Valley OHV area. The Johnson Valley OHV area is home to the King of the Hammers race, AMA off-road races and one of the main areas off-roaders in Southern California can ride.
If the area is closed, less than 2% of the Southern California desert would be open to OHV use!
Without your help the future of the Hammers is unclear! There's more information in the included video, but to do your part visit the SaveTheHammers website below.

Boat Quay - by Sudharshan Murthy
About 2 months before our holiday, I received a very heart warming e-mail from my Best Friend Miti. It reads like this:
'I've got an assignment in Hong Kong on the dates that you'll be here and Eugene will bring the kids over to meet me . I would like for you, Ming and the girls to stay atmy new place. I guarantee that you'll like it. It's only a 10 minute walk from the MRT station. You and Ming can use my room and the girls can either share a room if they like or they can use the kid's rooms. Call it house-sitting!
When you stay here, you do not need to bring anything … not even your toothbrushes . My domestic helper will be here, she will change the bed sheets, clean after you and even feed you. Just tell Ani (her name), I would like Assam Pork, Gado-Gado and Onde Onde for dinner … she'll know what to do! There's no need to have the keys as Ani will be home except for Sunday. You can get the keys from her if you like. Feel free to use our home like it's your own and tell Ani if there's anything else you might need.
Some facts about my place –
There are 5 bedrooms plus 1 maid's room.
3 bathrooms and plus one toilet.
You can use the computers, they're in the office on the third floor
The supermarket is 10 minutes walk from my place
Get the Car Keys from Ani if you would like to use the car
There's a Bus Stop just outside our place too
The swimming pool is right at the door step, there's a gym as well.
The kitchen is open concept – you can cook whatever you like, we have both outdoor and indoor cooking. It's usually well stocked; you can get your milk and eggs from the supermarket when they run out, or you can send Ani to get it.
Since my kids are all young, they are perfectly happy to bunk in with us on the floor – we have loads of extra mattresses and they love sleepover parties! So,there's no need for you to move when we return from our trip. We've got enough room for everyone. I think I've covered everything … let me know what else you need.
Happy house sitting!
Love, Miti '
Wouldn't you just LOVE to have a friend like this? A Friend like Miti is like a Hug from God. Coincidently we were making accommodation arrangements when she so generously offered us to stay in her home, and what a home it is!

This is THE life!
Paige sure knows how to relax..
How to make 'Lemper' - 'Lemongrass infused Glutinous Rice wrapped around Spicy Chicken. Ani is a great cook! We enjoyed 3 meals prepared by her this trip.

Our favorite place to eat when we're out and about shopping is at the 'Food Republic' . We've been to two of these chain food courts so far, one with a ' yesteryear village' simulation theme and the other with an 'old library' theme.

Ming and I
What do you do when you meet up with relatives? Eat Of course! Ming's uncle who is an ardent Fishing and Boating fan, invited us to the Singapore Yacht Club for Dinner one evening. The Dinner was great - we got to 'hand-pick' our seafood and have it cooked the way we wanted. I didn't take any photos of the food though, I thought it would be rude to let everybody wait while I positioned their food this way and that while I snapped. After dinner as the sun was setting, I excused myself from the table and took these shots..

On our last trip here, we had the pleasure of meeting the Gorgeous Annette Tan of 'Greedy Goose'. This trip, Annette invited us over to her place for Dinner - she cooked up a storm of the yummiest Peranakan fare, a Eurasian Devilled Curry, A Berry Clafoutis (?) and served up flavor after flavor of the most beautiful home-made ice-creams! We had the privilege of meeting Mervin, Annette's very cute and youthful-looking partner, her good friend Deborah and her lovely, lovely critters Ralph and Oxford.
The Feast..
Annette and the girls
Annette, the girls and the frolicking hounds!
The great thing about going to S'pore is that I get to catch-up with old friends. I've known Yean , Dee and Stefan since my school days. We met for Dinner at 'Bayang' , an Indonesian restaurant in Clarke Quay and later for coffee and cake at 'Nectarie'.
We passed a quirky looking bar on the way to Dinner - 'C Clinic'- all the seats are either wheelchairs or hospital bed look-alike thingys. What a strange concept!
See what I mean?
Another Bar - this time a Moroccan Shisha Bar. Don't you just love the lighting at the entrance?

The girls, Aunty Mei and I at Aunty Mei's 'Heartroom Gallery' in Owen Road near Farrer Park MRT. Mei Ho is a Brilliant Folk Artist. She conducts folk art painting classes at the gallery and does pieces on commission. Proceeds from the sale of her work goes to the Church. She's an AMAZING lady and a great inspiration to me.

Two days before I left Singapore, Miti returned from her trip to Hong Kong and we did what two best friends do. We hung out, went for a massage, and had meals together. We didn't get to visit 'Lodger' (Roger) my Reflexologist in China Town this time around though, which is unfortunate, but I will make a point of doing so on our next trip.

I found your blog as I'm trying to see if food bloggers in Perth actually meet up, and for some reason I found your blog.
Your KL and Singapore holidays almost looks like mine which I recently went on as well, except you didn't get food poisoning/some weird infection at Madame Kwan's that knocked you out for 1-2 weeks.
Funnily enough, I was supposed to meet some KL food bloggers too (but couldn't due to the 'lovely' food poisoning/infection).
Unfortunately I stayed somewhere dodgy in Singapore, not like the gorgeous place you stayed in! I got gypped! ;)

Dean Gibbons paced Harvard with six points on three goals and three assists in the win at Princeton (Gil Talbot).
Ivy League Tournament Scenarios
PRINCETON, N.J. – Dean Gibbons scored three times and assisted on three other tallies, while goalie Harry Krieger recorded 15 saves, as the Harvard men's lacrosse team earned a 9-8 comeback victory at Princeton Saturday afternoon. With the win, Harvard improves to 2-3 in Ivy League play and remains in contention for a spot in the Ivy League Tournament May 6-8.
Matt Hull also added a hat trick for the Crimson, which sees its record move to 8-5 overall, marking the second time in three seasons Harvard has won at least eight games. Princeton sees its overall record fall to 4-7, and drops to 2-3 in conference action. The Crimson has now defeated the Tigers in two straight seasons for the first time since taking three straight against its Ancient Eight rival from 1986-88.
Harvard will close out its regular season by hosting Yale at Harvard Stadium Saturday, April 30 at 1 p.m. The Crimson's seven seniors (Noor Beckwith, Francis Ellis, Dean Gibbons, Greg Gilroy, Matt Hull, Andrew Parchman and Sam Steyer) will be honored in a pre-game ceremony on Senior Day. If the Crimson defeats the Bulldogs, Harvard will automatically clinch a spot in the Ivy League tournament and could still qualify for the Ivy postseason with a loss with help in other conference contests. Cornell won the Ivy League title and will host the Ancient Eight Tournament.
The most straightforward path for Harvard to make the field is to defeat Yale. If that were to happen, Harvard would be the No. 3 seed and Yale would be the fourth seed.
Harvard could also get into the field if it finishes 2-4 along with Princeton and Brown. In that scenario, Harvard holds the tie-breakers by virtue of its 2-0 record versus both those teams. If it were to happen, Yale would be the third seed and Harvard the fourth.
Harvard could also enter the field if it finishes 2-4 along with Princeton and Dartmouth. Those three teams would all have 1-1 records against each other and identical 0-3 records versus Cornell, Penn and Yale meaning that in this scenario, the fourth team to make the field would be determined by a random draw conducted by Ivy League Executive Director Robin Harris. Yale would earn the third seed on this scenario.
Despite Princeton outshooting Harvard, 45-30, the Crimson won 12-of-21 faceoffs, led by Gabriel Mendola who claimed six faceoff victories out of nine attempts. Each team collected 32 ground balls, with Harvard's Joe Petrucci picking up a game-high six ground balls. Princeton's Tyler Fiorito stopped 16 shots against the Crimson, while Alex Capretta led the Tigers with three goals.
After falling behind to the Tigers, 3-0, Gibbons notched the Crimson's first goal of the day, firing a shot past Fiorito at the 3:56 mark of the first quarter. Harvard narrowed the deficit to 3-2 when Mark Scalise sent a pass to Hull who tallied a goal on Harvard's next possession with 2:54 left in the opening stanza.
In the second, Gibbons knotted the game, 3-3, with his second goal, coming at 13:26. Jeff Cohen gave Harvard a 4-3 edge when he took a pass from Ryan Stevens and found the back of the net with 6:43 left in the first half. The Crimson extended its run to 5-0 when Terry White found Hull for his second goal at the 5:31 mark. With time winding down in the half, Gibbons made a quick pass to Hull who scored with just 1.4 seconds left, giving him his third goal of the day and Harvard a 6-3 lead heading into the break.
Harvard closed the half with a 6-0 run and owned a 16-8 advantage in shots on goal, despite the shots overall being even at 18-18. Fiorito had 10 saves at halftime for the Tigers, while Krieger made five stops in the first 30 minutes.
The Tigers ended Harvard's goal run with a tally by Chris McBride at 11:03 of the third quarter, as Princeton got within two, 6-4. The Crimson answered with scores by Jack Doyle at 10:22 and Kevin Vaughan at 7:49, as Harvard took a commanding 8-4 lead. Gibbons assisted on both tallies, as Harvard continued to control play.
After Princeton's Luke Armour made it 8-5 with a tally at 5:38, the Tigers managed another goal by Mike Grossman to get within two scores, 8-6, with 2:15 left in the frame.
Midway through the fourth, Gibbons tallied his third goal of the game, pushing Harvard's lead to 9-6 with 7:47 to go in regulation. The Tigers won the ensuing faceoff and quickly scored to stay within two goals, 9-7, with 6:50 remaining. Armour netted another goal for Princeton with 4:13 to play, as the Tigers cut Harvard's lead to one, 9-8.
With 59 seconds remaining, Krieger made a save on a shot by Princeton's Tyler Moni, and Harvard was able to grab possession and successfully clear the ball, as the Crimson held on for the victory.

Nazareth - Overview
The Holy City of Nazareth is the childhood home of Jesus, as described in the New Testament. A center of Christian faith and pilgrimage.
John 1: 46: "And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see".

This page is an overview of the old city of Nazareth, the childhood home of Jesus.
* Overview
* History

* Map
* Sites
* Biblical
* Links
Nazareth is located in the hills in the center of the Galilee in Northern Israel. The modern city of Nazareth was built over the old village, and few archaeological remains are left from the times of Jesus.
Nazareth is today a big city, populated by Christians and Muslims (in lower Nazareth) and Jews (in Upper Nazareth, called Natzeret-Illit). It less than one hour drive east of Haifa. The older section near the Churches is crowded with small shops and narrow alleys. The City grew around this center towards the hills around, with more Arab villages around the city that are practically connected to the City.

Taking good care of our clothes is one of the best things we can all do for the environment. Always follow the washing instructions, mend whatever can be repaired and pass any garment a child has outgrown on to a new owner. You can also transform any worn-out garment into something new, which is called upcycling or creative reuse. A top can be upcycled into a gym bag and mittens into sweatbands. Just use your imagination. GYM BAG FROM A TANK TOP An old top can be upcycled into a really great gym bag. Why not personalize your gym bag with fun cords and appliqué details?

Beachlady breaks down why you can't judge a book by its cover. Or, er, a marathon runner by her age or tummy size:
I am especially pissy about this fat = unhealthy stuff these days. I just ran my first marathon and boy oh boy did I learn about judging someone's health and physical fitness based on how they look. There were 70 year old women, 300 lb men, 100 pound college girls, 36 year old shorties (ahem) at that starting line. And how they looked on the outside (outside of the elite runners who look like elite runners) had no bearing on their ability to finish. I thought I was pretty non-judgmental about bodies, but MAN, will I no longer assume larger people are not super in shape.
So to sum up, Neil Cavuto can go screw himself.

Gophertown Residents Lived in the Abandoned Tunnels of Denver's Argo Smelter
During the Great Depression, in the mid-1930s, a group of 20 men lived in the slag tunnels of the abandoned Argo smelter in north Denver. They called their community Gophertown and jokingly addressed themselves as "Gopherites" because they lived underground. Most of the men were old-age pensioners or WPA workers.
To passerbys, Gophertown at 50th Avenue and Fox Street looked like a broken, lumpy field. The only clues of habitation were the radio aerials stretched from unused telephone poles.
Because the abandoned tunnels offered walls and privacy, each man possessed his own room. Every "apartment" contained a bed and a small cast iron coal stove. The hardened walls provided insulation and it took little fuel to heat. Most of the men had crystal radio sets, which didn't require electricity, and kerosene lamps for light.
These men, who had little money, used what materials they could find. A discarded automobile door was converted into a front door. Scrap wood lined walls. Calendar pictures and advertising art hung as decoration.
An aside –
The Argo smelter, owned by Boston and Colorado Smelting Company, closed its doors in 1909 when it was unable to economically obtain the high-grade ores needed to operate.
First established in Black Hawk in 1867 it moved to Denver in 1878, and was founded by Richard Pearce and Nathaniel P. Hill.
At the time of its closing, the Hill estate owned the majority of the stock. Crawford Hill, husband of Louise Hill, was its principal representative.
