JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Feb. 24, 2012) – For Tarita Gordon (Wichita, Kan.), Natalie Pickwell (Kingsport, Tenn.), and Gwen Washington (Manassas, Va.) they want their Senior Day memory to be a winning one.
The three seniors and entire ETSU women's basketball team hope to close out regular season play and head into the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament with a bang, as the Lady Bucs host league-leading Florida Gulf Coast on Saturday afternoon. Tip is set for 1:30 p.m. inside the MSHA Athletic Center and will be aired live on ESPN3.
This senior class has already built a strong resume as they have been a part of three A-Sun Championships and two NCAA Tournaments, but they hope to add a few more items to that list before their careers come to an end.
One of those items can be the only team in the A-Sun to hand FGCU a loss this season.
The Eagles (25-2, 17-0) are looking to become only the second team in the conference to finish with a perfect conference record. Florida International accomplished the feat twice (1992-93, 1995-96).
FGCU is coming off a 76-63 win at USC Upstate on Thursday night, marking its 17th consecutive victory. The Eagles, who rank first in the country with 11.1 threes made per game, only went 6-for-15 from beyond the arc at Upstate, but outscored the Spartans 46-20 in the paint. Sophomore guard Sarah Hansen went 10-of-11 from the field en route to scoring 22 points, while senior guard Courtney Chihil followed with 15 points on 6-of-8 shooting and dished out six assists. As a team, FGCU shot 55.4 percent (31-56) from the field and recorded 18 assists, but turned the ball over an uncharacteristic 22 times – resulting into 28 points on the offensive end for Upstate. The Eagles did, however, force the Spartans into 24 turnovers and cashed those miscues into 24 points.
Overall, the Eagles lead the A-Sun in scoring offense (75.0), defense (52.3), scoring margin (+22.6), field goal percentage (.437), three-point field goal percentage (.368), three-point field goal percentage defense (.274), assists (17.1), turnover margin (+7.4), and assist/turnover ratio (1.3).
While FGCU is looking to cap off its perfect season, the Lady Bucs (8-20, 7-10 in A-Sun) are coming off a thrilling 74-72 win against Stetson on Thursday night. After seeing its 11-point lead evaporate late in the second half, Gordon stepped up and scored ETSU's final five points, while banking in a three-pointer with the shot clock winding down and 35 seconds showing on the game clock. Stetson had one final look at a game-winning three, but Victoria McGowan's attempt at a three fell short at the buzzer, lifting the Lady Bucs to the two-point conference win.
Gordon led the Lady Bucs with 20 points on 8-of-16 shooting, while dishing out a season-high eight assists and pulling down six rebounds. Meanwhile, sophomore Destiny Mitchell (Bluffton, Ga.) recorded her ninth double-double of the year by registering 10 points and a career-tying 14 rebounds, and Pickwell scored all 14 of her points in the second half as she netted four of ETSU's eight threes. As a team, the Blue and Gold scored 20 points off 19 forced turnovers and recorded 16 second-chance points on 15 offensive rebounds.
Prior to Saturday's game, the three seniors will be honored with a pregame ceremony. The group of Gordon, Pickwell, and Washington have been a part of three Atlantic Sun Championships, including two NCAA Tournament appearances, while combining to score 2,397 points, 1,083 rebounds, and 380 assists in 294 career games. Washington enters Saturday's game eight points shy of becoming the 20th player in Lady Buccaneer history to reach the 1,000-point club, while Pickwell has scored 79 percent (651 points) of her 828 career points since her junior season. In addition, Gordon has scored over 500 points (577 points) in her two-year playing career at ETSU and was named to the 2010 Atlantic Sun All-Tournament Team.
The Lady Bucs trail the all-time series, 6-2, and have lost the last four games in the series, including an 88-60 setback in Ft. Myers back in December. Freshman Maria Bond (Macon, Ga.) led the Lady Bucs with 16 points on 6-of-11 shooting with six rebounds, while Gordon added 12 points, four rebounds and two assists. The Eagles netted 16 threes (37 attempts) and had three players score in double figures with Kelsey Jacobson finishing with 24 points on 8-of-12 shooting from beyond the arc. The last time the Lady Bucs defeated FGCU was back on Jan. 16, 2010 when ETSU knocked off the Eagles by five, 88-83, in Johnson City.
Fans unable to make the trip to the Dome can listen to all the action on WXSM-AM 640 The Extreme Sports Monster as "Voice of the Lady Bucs" John Stevens will carry the play-by-play. The game will also be aired live on ESPN3 as Paul Crane will handle the play-by-play and Dee Romine will be the color analyst. Live stats will be provided via Gametracker.

Procore Nutrition
Procore Nutrition is a supplement manufacturer of products geared towards men and women. Our goal is to create a line of supplements that have a soft look and feel while maintiaining the intensity of the workout industry.
This product will be sold in retail stores along with other products. The target audience will be men and women looking to use protein to get into shape, maintain their shape or build lean muscle. Our goal is to supply these customers with a clean looking new age product.
The label will go on a 3 pound black tub with a silver lid. The first label attached is an example of a label that was on a similar product that a designer put together for us (it is far from what we want but is an example). The total label size is 5 x 17.35. When you look at the label, we are mainly focused on designing the customer facing portion which is 5 x 6 inches, the rest is the supplement facts and nutritional facts. I have attached a rough sketch of the basic information we need in this space. We were leaning towards using silver as a background in the label but we are open to creativity here. We need a logo for precision nutrition on the label and are looking for creativity here. Our goal is to find a label / designer that we like and produce multiple products. Thank you!

When I found this in the store, I rolled the bottle over a few times in my hands and thought "Yeah....yeah this is for me..." I'm glad to say that that feeling remained after I put it on my nails. Tons of people have described this before me and done a magnificent job. Suffice to say, it is mainly white with a good helping of grey to it, that helps to keep it from looking too stark and bright on the nail. It reminds me of paper mache and I think it is supremely cool.
Has anything surprised you in person lately? I really didn't think I needed this before I saw it in the store!

I'm unable to shrink Windows partition using gparted live CD.
The partition filesystem is NTFS. Windows 7 is on it and boots fine.
Gparted information dialog gives the following:
- Status - unmounted
- ERROR - the disk has at least 19 bad sectors
- Run chkdsk /f /r on Windows and reboot it TWICE! Then you can resize NTFS safely by additionally using the --bad-sectors option of ntfsresize
- The cause might be a missing software package. The following list of software packages is required for ntfs file system support: ntfsprogs / ntfs-3g.
I've scanned for disk errors and rebooted twice as suggested above.
How do I get rid of this red exclamation mark? (The red exclamation mark looks like this).
Thanks in advance.

As a world-class medical center, UAB Medicine is dedicated to the preservation of health and prevention of disease. In order to provide the best care and support to patients, UAB Medicine employees must be in the best health possible. For that reason, UAB Medicine is launching a tobacco-free hiring policy for all new hires on or after July 1, 2013.
"Tobacco use is a major cause of illness and death in our state," says UAB Health System CEO Will Ferniany, Ph.D. "For more than 100 years, UAB Medicine has been dedicated to preserving health and preventing diseases in Birmingham and beyond. As health-care providers, UAB Medicine and the entities that comprise it should be role models for good health behaviors, and lead by example in the quest for good health. We believe one of the best ways to accomplish this is to encourage people to stop using tobacco products and, in anticipation of the 37th Great American Smokeout tomorrow, we are announcing our new hiring policy."
The policy will extend to anyone applying for a UAB Medicine job after July 1, 2013 — this includes jobs with the UAB Health System, UAB Hospital, University of Alabama Health Services Foundation, The Kirklin Clinic, The Kirklin Clinic at Acton Road, UAB Callahan Eye Hospital, University of Alabama Ophthalmology Services Foundation, Triton Health Systems L.L.C./VIVA Health Inc. and Birmingham-area UAB Health Centers. The policy does not apply to the University of Alabama at Birmingham as a whole.
According to the new policy, tobacco use includes smoking, sucking/dipping, chewing or snuffing any tobacco product. Prospective employees will be tested for nicotine use as part of their pre-employment drug screening following a job offer. Those who test positive for nicotine use will not be hired.
"We care deeply for all members, and prospective members, of the UAB Medicine family, and as health-care providers we wanted to take a major step toward providing a healthier environment for employees, patients and hospital visitors," Ferniany says. "Our intent is not to eliminate people from applying for positions with UAB Medicine, but rather to send the message that as the largest health-care provider in the state, we are committed to the health of our employees and all Alabamians."
Each year in Alabama, 7,500 people die from tobacco-related illnesses and more than 800 non-smokers die from illnesses related to secondhand smoke, according to the Alabama Department of Public Health. More than 20 percent of Alabamians smoke and nearly 10 percent use smokeless tobacco.
The policy does not apply to current UAB Medicine employees or individuals hired prior to July 1, 2013 who smoke or use other forms of tobacco. For current employees, UAB Medicine is ramping up efforts to provide smoking and tobacco-cessation programs to help them achieve their best possible health.
"Our employees are the most valuable asset UAB Medicine has and their health and that of their families is very important to us," Ferniany says. "Knowing that tomorrow is the Great American Smokeout, we are encouraging current members of the UAB Medicine family to take advantage of the many programs and services, including smoking-cessation classes, which we provide. They can visit the UAB Employee Wellness website for more details on all of these services."
UAB Medicine is not the first health-care organization to adopt this type of policy. Hospitals and health systems in Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee and Texas also have stopped hiring people who use tobacco, according to the Society for Human Resource Management. This includes several nationally ranked health-care providers, such as the Baylor Health Care System, whose policy went into effect earlier this year, and Cleveland Clinic, which has had a tobacco-free hiring policy since 2007.

I imagine Stonebridge and Scott are finally finishing their motorcycle ride across the U.S. now that they've finished their latest mission.
Just because the boys and Cinemax's "Strike Back" are gone again until next year doesn't mean fans will have to miss all the military action completely. Cinemax is bringing us "Strike Back: Origins," the original British series that inspired the Stonebridge-Scott version we've enjoyed for three seasons.
It debuts at 9 p.m. CT Oct. 25 on Cinemax.
Originally titled "Chris Ryan's Strike Back," this six-episode season was based on the book series of the same name by former British Special Forces soldier Ryan. Dan Percival, the co-exec producer of the first Cinemax season of "Strike Back," was the key creator for the original series.
The season, which stars Andrew Lincoln before he played Rick Grimes in "The Walking Dead." It aired in Britain in 2010. Cinemax has titled the earlier season "Origins" because it really acts as a prequel to everything that has happened since. You may remember star Richard Armitage from his brief appearance as John Porter in the first Cinemax season of "Strike Back."
In the premiere, Special Air Service soldier Porter leads a dangerous mission into Iraq on the eve of the 2003 invasion by Allied Forces. Intelligence specialist Hugh Collinson (Lincoln) joins Porter's team to help extract an executive from a British arms manufacturer who is being held by fundamentalists.
Of course things go wrong. Porter is blamed and basically booted out of the service until, years later in 2010, he recognizes a terrorist in a news report about the kidnapping of British journalist Katie Dartmouth (Orla Brady) in Iraq. Seeing a chance to help Dartmouth and regain the military career he lost, he seeks out Collinson.
Collinson and Section 20 team members Layla Thompson (Jodhi May) and Danni Prendiville (Shelley Conn) have doubts about Porter. They shouldn't.
Colin Salmon ("Arrow") plays Section 20 overseer James Middleton. The episode was written by Jed Mercurio and directed by Daniel Percival.
These episodes bear only a few similarities to the show we've been watching in the U.S., which isn't a bad thing. The first two episodes feel more like a star vehicle for Armitage, which again isn't a bad thing. He's great in it. Check him out in the exclusive clip below, where Porter tries to get a job after being drummed out of the service. (Armitage was the first ever winner of RedEye's Best TV Character contest in the early 00s for his role as Guy of Gisbourne in "Robin Hood.")
The scope of the missions doesn't seem as large as in the Cinemax version, but the sacrifices these operatives make, the danger they put themselves in, the high stakes and stress of their jobs, is all here.
I've added the exclusive scene below, as well as a behind-the-scenes clip and another preview. At the top of the page are photos from the episode.
Let me know what you think after you watch.

Do we know if they're allowing units to break up into singles and regroup? That would make sense but I must have missed that info.
If its anything like other OG games then they'll probably dedicate an arc to it like they're going to probably do with every other new game's plot before turning the whole thing into a massive clusterfuck of villains, upgrades, and plots.

Jon Hamm in the pool?
I heard that Jon Hamm, his too-small bow tie, and Jennifer Westfeldt hit up the Chateau Marmont at some point after the Globes on Sunday night. And he jumped into the pool, underpants only. (Thanks N!) No one had the good sense to send me a blackberry photo. Sometimes it's better to use your imagination.
This is Hamm in New York today shooting Friends With Kids, written and directed by Westfeldt. They were able to make the schedule work before he has to start on Mad Men again. Kristen Wiig is also in the movie and, of course, Megan Fox. It kinda impresses me that Megan Fox landed this movie. Some say that they were hoping originally for Anne Hathaway in that role. Megan Fox stepping in for Anne Hathaway in a movie is all kinds of crazy to you, isn't it?

Here begins my Storify summation of day one from this week's timely conference, "Science Writing in the Age of Denialism." Go to the conference website for complete details on panels and speakers, which also featured PLoS Bloggers Deborah Blum and Steve Silberman. (In case you're not familiar with Storify, what you're reading between the short passages I wrote is a selected assortment of tweets made by participants at the conference on the hashtags #sciencedenial and #denialconf, and which I later curated.) I'll have one or more further summaries of this sort on the rest of the conference, which I'll try to complete soon.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison assembled a roster of science-writing all-stars to consider the roots of the public's resistance to accepting the science about evolution, climate change, vaccines, and other matters.
The organizers made their goals for the event clear in the description listed on its website at sciencedenial.wisc.edu:
Science writers now work in an age where uncomfortable ideas and truths meet organized resistance. Opposing scientific consensus on such things as anthropogenic climate change, the theory of evolution, and even the astonishingly obvious benefits of vaccination has become politically de rigueur, a litmus test and a genuine threat to science. How does denial affect the craft of the science writer? How can science writers effectively explain disputed science? What's the big picture? Are denialists ever right?
Welcome and Introduction
Science writer par excellence Deborah Blum of UW-M welcomed the audience at the event's start and introduced some of those making it possible. University chancellor David Ward considered the tensions between science and irrationality, modernity and anti-modernity, inclusive pluralism vs. ideological pluralization.
David Krakauer, the head of the relatively new Wisconsin Institute for Discovery (the venue for the day's discussions), then pointed out that all of us engage in our own forms of denial. For example, journalists covering the denial of climate warming et al. fooled themselves into thinking that they could change public opinion. For decades, Krakauer noted, popular films had carried the message that we ignore scientists' warnings at our peril, yet the public still had this distrust of scientists.'
David Krakauer: "the science communicator's denial? That the work makes a difference." #sciencedenial sciencedenial
David Krakauer: "If Steven Spielberg and Ridley Scott have failed, what can science writers do?" #sciencedenial Mark Riechers
"But journalists aren't the only ones." Scott Dodd
"We're actually in the age of denial – of the end." John Krakauer #sciencedenial Adam Hinterthuer
Communicating Science in Politicized Environments
Arthur Lupia, professor of political science at the University of Michigan, kicked off the session with an energetic and engrossing review of what biology and psychology had discovered about the challenges of making complex arguments to diverse audiences. The fleeting, fragmented nature of human attention and the phenomenon of "motivated reasoning" almost guarantee that people will not absorb and accept upsetting information unless it speaks meaningfully to their priorities and values.
Lupia: "Familiar communication plan is that if we give people right info, they will make the right decisions. But often fails." #sciencedenial John Rennie
Lupia: "The problem is us, not them. We have unrealistic expectations about how they'll react to info." #sciencedenial John Rennie

|Mary League   **

**The Office of Advice Counsel is responsible for
providing legal advice to all Boards, Commissions
and Panels. These attorneys do not provide legal
advice to parties outside LLR.
I am an LMSW moving to SC from another state. In SC can I practice in a private practice setting, deliver clinical services in private practice and receive direct payment from the client or third-party reimbursement?
No. In SC, an LMSW cannot practice in a private or independent practice setting but can only practice in settings such as social, medical or governmental agencies. All clinical services in independent or private practice must be provided by LISW-CPs (those social workers who have met the education, supervision and examination licensure requirements of the Board for the LISW-CP.)
Must I have a degree in Social Work to be licensed as a Social Worker?
Yes. Graduation from an accredited program in Social Work with a BSW, MSW or DSW is a requirement for licensure. Persons who have bachelor degrees in sociology, psychology or related disciplines and who are interested in practice as a Social Worker are encouraged to contact one of the accredited programs in this state. Many courses from those degree programs may transfer to a Social Work degree.
How do I become an approved LISW supervisor?
To become an approved supervisor, one must first be a Licensed Independent Social Worker, CP or AP and have a minimum of 4500 hours of clinical/advanced practice earned over a period of not less than 3 years beyond receipt of LISW CP/AP and have obtained 45 academic coursework hours or continuing education hours in supervision.
Can a Licensed Masters Social Worker who is under board approved supervision accept additional or changed duties or modify his or her area of practice during the period of supervision?
The LMSW may accept additional or changed duties so long as those duties fall within the defined scope of the practice for which supervision was approved. Supervision is required for both LISW-CP and LISW-AP. Supervision of clinical practice does not qualify an applicant for LISW-AP. Similarly supervision of advanced practice does not qualify an applicant for LISW-CP. However, the applicant may take on a variety clinical or advance practice duties during the time of supervision.
Do I have to attend a workshop or can I get C.E. credit from home study course over the Internet?
Yes. You can obtain C.E. credit from home study courses via the Internet. There are many excellent Board approved home study courses available to licensees that can be taken in the comfort of their homes. Some of these include www.medicalupdate.com, www.aswb.org, www.nasw.org, or www.psychoeducationalresouces.org, just to name a few or you may contact the Board office for more home study options.
How do I know if a training/seminar is approved for CEUs?
First check to see if the flyer denotes approval by the S.C. Board, ASWB or NASW. If the flyer does not indicate this, check your guidelines to see if the sponsor falls under the pre-approved sponsor list. If you're still unsure if the workshop/seminar is approved, contact the sponsor of the workshop/seminar. The sponsor will know if the South Carolina Board has approved the workshop for Continuing Education.
If the presenter of Continuing Education is a Ph.D., would the hours be social work or non-social work hours?
The hours would count as non-social work hours, unless the presenter's degree was a BSW, MSW or DSW. If the Ph.D. is in social work, the CEU's would then count towards your social work hours.

Amazon has announced their iPad competitor and as rumor had it, it's called the Kindle Fire. The biggest news is the price -- only $199 for a 14.6 ounce, 7-in IPS 1024x600 169dpi display. It's dual core, Wi-Fi only, and has only 8GB of storage (plus free Amazon cloud) but again -- $199.
If you're looking for something that resembles the BlackBerry PlayBook, is running a fork of Android OS, and comes with all the content Amazon is happy to sell you, this could be a very compelling product. But if $199 is still too much for you to spend on a Kindle, just wait -- there's more! They've also announced an ultra-cheap classic-style Kindle for just $79, and a new Kindle Touch at $99 for Wi-Fi only and $149 for 3G. Those are the prices with ad-subsidized "special offers", however. They'll cost you $30-$40 more or so if you want them clean and ad-free.
Also, Amazon remains focused mainly on the US market and its international content offerings don't look to be improving just yet (though I'll continue to hold to hope given all the money Apple is making outside the US.)
Kudos to Amazon, though, for doing what Apple so far hasn't done -- release the iPad shuffle and iPad nano tablet price-points into the US market.
And hey, if you're thinking about pre-ordering, here are some handy links that let you test out the non-Apple waters, but still support your favorite Mobile Nations sites at the same time. Win. Win.
For more on the Kindle Fire, jump over to Android Central's new Kindle Fire Forums, then jump back here and tell us what you think -- did Amazon just announce the first viable iPad competitor?

E.D.W. needed a new print or packaging design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 134 designs submitted by 15 freelance designers.
We're a small, family-run boutique winery. We hand craft small lots of wine made from grapes grown in our vineyards. Our estate vineyards have been certified organic for 24 years, since 1986. Recipient of prestigious "Masters of Organics" Award. No pesticides, herbicides, fungicides or chemical fertilizers are used. Every day is Earth Day here. We use sheep in our vineyards to eat the grass and weeds rather than extra tractor time and chemicals.
We are committed to rigorously following organic farming practices. We believe that these traditional methods insure healthy soil which nurtures robust vines that yield vibrant grapes- the basis of great wines!
Over the last decade we are proud to have won 446 medals in major wine competitions in California -more than any other winery using certified organic grapes.
We also have always recycled everything, have moved to lighter, more eco-friendly bottles and packaging.
However we are not hippies and do not wear tie-die shirts. We care about the environment and want to do the right thing. We expect that our product quality will be the high and competitive and hope that our buyers have a small extra sense of gratification supporting social and environmentally conscious companies.
Ben & Jerry's is an inspiration. People like brands that are fun, happy, true to themselves and avoid pretense, what Ben & Jerry's manages to be so well.
People who enjoy premium wine. Typically 30 to 55 years old. Tend to be very well educated and like to have wine with dinner several nights a week or more. Males tend to get into all the details of the wine, yet often women tend to be the buyers. Thus both are of equal importance.
They tend to be somewhat traditional in that they expect a wine label to look like a wine label and have the information they're looking for in a familiar manner.
These consumers believe the following: A "green" business strives to have a positive impact on the environment and community. It develops and practices business strategies that go beyond regulation and demonstrate commitment to a healthy and sustainable future. A green business adopts principles, policies, and practices that improve the quality of life for its customers and employees.
Update front wine bottle label. Two objectives: 1) Use new logo [attached] 2) We operate in an eco-friendly way and want to convey that message better. Our actions have been "green" but not our image.
Two things to be submitted: 1) A new label design shown in two color schemes to show where the color would change. 2) A color swatch showing 12 different earth tone/ "green"/ natural colors including PMS code for each. They should be in a consistent tonal range but different enough to easily discern
Details: We produce 12 different wines, so we'd like each one to have a different secondary color code that is subordinate but compatible to the main green color (PMS 350) in the logo, which should also be used elsewhere on the label. [There is the option to add a matching accent color to each of the12 wine colors.]
Label MUST be: 3" wide by 4-3/4" tall
The exact words to be included:
Yorkville Cellars "Y" logo
Cabernet Sauvignon
Yorkville Highlands
Made with Organic Grapes from our Rennie Vineyard
Wants: A design that portrays the feeling of rural, chic, understated
Modern color patterns that convey a "green" image
Somewhat minimalistic
Like asymmetrical designs
Don't Wants: Photo's. Designs not consistent with a premium product, or are overly fussy or old-fashioned; or not distinctive & therefore not memorable. Text that is difficult to read. Over-used Vineyard/wine imagery

"Give a month at least to this precious reserve. The time will not be taken from the sum of your life. Instead of shortening, it will indefinitely lengthen it and make you truly immortal." John Muir — Our National Parks — 1901
John Muir once advised visitors to spend "a month at least" exploring Montana's Glacier National Park and while the advice was a stretch in his day, it seems virtually impossible in ours. In today's fast-paced world, most people struggle to find a week of vacation time — let alone a month. The best our family could do recently was a four-day weekend exploring both sides of the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, and while it may not have been enough time to make me truly immortal as Muir once promised, it was just enough time to make me wish I had more.
Situated along the Continental Divide, the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park is a stunning ice-carved terrain of mountains, valleys, glaciers, waterfalls and trees. On the Canadian side, Waterton is the place where "prairies meet mountains" and this provides prime wildlife viewing opportunities — especially in August and September when the berries ripen and bears come out to enjoy a pre-hibernation feast. On the Montana side of the park, the Going-to-the-Sun Road provides a breathtaking view of the Continental Divide and is one of the most spectacular drives in the world.
Together the two parks are relatively free of crowds and wonderfully full of wildlife. Most visitors don't have a month to spend exploring either Waterton or Glacier, but anyone who has visited either almost always wishes they did.
Hitting the Highlights
- Located in the southwestern corner of Alberta about three hours south of Calgary, Waterton Lakes National Park has had a long connection with Montana's Glacier National Park. The two parks are linked geographically via the Continental Divide and in 1932 they became officially linked as the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park — the world's first International Peace Park. Together, the two parks form a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Waterton Lakes National Park
- Bears Hump: At 1.5 km, the Bears Hump hike is a short and strenuous family hike that is well-worth the effort. At the top, you are rewarded with great views of the mountains, the lakes and the valley.
- Red Rock Canyon: The 16-km drive to Red Rock Canyon is one of the best wildlife-viewing routes in the park. From the safety of our car, we saw 10 bears on a recent visit. The hike along the canyon provides great views of the striking colours of the bedrock layers.
- Waterton Shoreline Cruise: Take your passport on this two-hour scenic cruise and you can get a goat-shaped stamp at the Goat Haunt crossing in Montana. You'll also need a passport if you want to do the hike to Kootenay Lake, Montana.
- Mountain Meadow Trail Rides: Located just outside the national park, this outfitter offers trail rides and pack trips that are not your typical nose-to-tail treks. Multi-day trips include accommodations at a lovely high-country wilderness base camp. (mountainmeadowtrailrides.com)
Glacier National Park
- Pie for Strength: No visit to Glacier is complete without pie and the Park Café in St. Mary, Montana has some of the best pie in the state. Their slogan is "Pie for Strength" and there are 17 different kinds of pie baked fresh daily on-site. They also serve salads, burgers, sandwiches and other classic American fare.
- Going-to-the-Sun Road: The Going to the Sun Road is a spectacular introduction to the International Peace Park — twisting and turning around mountains and hugging cliffs as it crosses the Continental Divide. Completed in 1932, the Going-to-the-Sun Road is a National Historic Landmark and a Historic Civil Engineering Landmark that is absolutely spectacular and should not be missed. If you feel uncomfortable driving this road, consider taking one of the red jammer buses that run regularly between the historic lodges in the park. You don't have to stay in one of the lodges to use the buses. Be sure to stop at Logan Pass and take the short hike to Hidden Lake Overlook.
- Lake McDonald: At 16 km in length, Lake McDonald is the largest lake in Glacier National Park and one of the most scenic spots in the park. While in the area, enjoy a lake cruise or one of the day hikes in the area, such as Trail of the Cedars or the Avalanche Lake hike. For a more challenging full-day adventure, consider exploring the Highline Trail and taking the free shuttle back to your car. Lake McDonald Lodge is one of the best bets for accommodations in the area. New this year are hostel-style rooms that sleep two to three people for $75 per night, as well as new luxury suites starting at $315 per night. (nationalparkreservations.com)

We've discussed it in the skype channel, but nothing posted on the site about it.
Some pretty big news about PSO2 has been dropping, first and foremost, its coming out on PS VITA as well as PC, and Sega is "trying" to ensure that PC and Vita will be cross-compatible. Awesome! The PSV release won't be out till 2012, though.
They've also confirmed the game will be FREE to play. You can download the PC client for free (and to the Vita a well?), and we can most assuredly assume there will be premium upgrades for costumes and weapons and crap, par for the course with F2P games nowadays.
Sega also announced that there will be a version of PSO2 for iOS and Android.
according to Andriasang, Sega promised "social game elements," and simpler controls and character creation. Data will be shared between the phone and PC/Vita versions, but crossplay will not be possible. This version is due winter 2012, between the summer PC release and the 2013 Vita release.
I wonder if the "Shared Data" is specifically your character, or if its like a side-game with Mag Raising or some shit?
And now Most importantly, they're releasing a BETA, first they're releasing a version of the character creator on April 5th (boob sliders!) Later that month they'll hold a private beta for 100,000 invitees. I don't know how to register yet, but I'm sure Donkey can figure it out.

I dunno I figure there would be plenty of neckbeards and dependapotomuses still playing that. The dreggs of internet society.
Anyway, I'm excited for this. It's making my investment on a serious gaming laptop a much more worthwhile venture.

On each of those three diverse itineraries, guests will have the opportunity to learn from and interact with one of the world's most renowned experts and foremost authorities on the oceans they are sailing on. Like his father, Jean-Michel Cousteau has dedicated his life to conserving the planet's oceans and marine wildlife, and his perspectives will enrich guests' sailing experience.
In addition to lectures tailored to the region of each sailing, Cousteau will offer interactive and engaging presentations discussing his father's legend and his own legacy, as well as insights into ocean life that most captivates him, including the delicate balance of the roles of orcas and sharks.

Distance Education | News
The first semester of a completely online bachelor's degree program in music will kick off in September, when Berklee College of Music expands Berklee Online. The new program will offer two degrees, one in the music business and the other in music production. The Boston-based school has been offering online classes since 2002, including free, non-credit bearing courses through Coursera and edX. Among the students who have taken online classes through Berklee are members of bands including Nine Inch Nails, Dave Matthews Band, Karmin and Sugarland, as well as studio producers and other industry executives.
According to Mike King, assistant vice president for marketing and recruitment in the online program, the decision to open the degrees was "really based on demand" and a goal of providing Berklee credentials "to students who cannot come to Boston to study."
Tuition in the new program is 60 percent lower than tuition in the physical college. The online degree tuition is $57,960 for 120 credits or about $14,490 per year. Tuition for the face-to-face degree program is $37,800 per school year. Admission will be limited to 300 students, a goal it is on track to reach, the college reported, for its fall 2014 and spring 2015 semesters.
The music production degree will have required courses such as music production analysis and mixing and mastering with Pro Tools and electives such as advanced audio ear training for mix engineers and audio post production for film and TV.
Music business develops expertise in music publishing, licensing, management, touring, marketing and legal aspects. Required courses include music business 101 and music industry entrepreneurship; electives cover copyright law and "online music marketing.
The degree programs also have general education requirements in writing, history, social sciences and math and sciences. But even there the focus is on music. For example, the history requirement can be fulfilled by taking history of rock, and math classes include math for musicians and sampling and audio production.
Both programs will accept up to 60 credits earned from another accredited institution or from the college's certificate programs or individual courses.
King said that although the college's production courses "cover pretty much every major [digital audio workstation] out there, from Pro Tools to Ableton Live to Cubase, Logic [Pro] and many more," the degrees will be "more focused on teaching the Berklee approach to music production using a particular tool, as opposed to simply teaching folks how to use the tool."
The greater value, he added, is the caliber of the teaching faculty. "We have some of the best music producers around teaching our courses, so what we offer is access and direct feedback to their approaches and techniques, in addition to expert guidance on the tool itself."

Nashville, Tenn. – Thursday marked the end of the four-day second-annual Travis Williams Summer Camp hosted by Tennessee State University.
Over the course of the sessions, 80 boys ages 6-15 improved their basketball skills by completing drills and receiving instruction from the TSU men's basketball coaching staff.
Williams started the day by teaching the fundamentals of defense before giving dribbling lessons that involved weaving around cones.
The kids then broke into groups to work on lay-up drills and outside jumpers with some going a full minute without missing a basket.
Later the campers formed teams based on age and scrimmaged each other, all the while receiving pointers from the six TSU coaches in attendance.
Following the pick-up games, there was an awards ceremony that included every participant being given a certificate and some exceptional performers receiving basketballs and t-shirts.
Williams closed the day with a prayer circle before bringing everybody in for a huddle and a chant of "TSU family".
Hear Williams's thoughts on the camp below:

SANTA CLARA — Twitter's eye-popping IPO last week led many pundits to predict a new wave of optimism for consumer Internet startups — if not an outright stock bubble.
But the first initial public offering by a Silicon Valley company in Twitter's wake seemed to lay such fears to rest Wednesday. Shares of Santa Clara-based Chegg, an online textbook rental clearinghouse, landed with a thud.
Its 22.6 percent loss was the worst first-day stock performance of 2013, according to IPO advisory firm Renaissance Capital.
Demand for Chegg seemed solid Tuesday night, when the 8-year-old company sold 15 million shares to institutional investors at $12.50 apiece. That was $1 higher than the expected price range, netting the company $187.5 million and valuing it at more than $1.1 billion.
But Wall Street didn't share that enthusiasm. Trading under the symbol CHGG on the New York Stock Exchange, the stock opened Wednesday at $11, then kept falling. Shares finished trading at $9.68.
Still, Santa Clara University professor Steve Diamond said the flop isn't a reflection on the length of Twitter's coattails.
Diamond, who teaches business law and also advises startups, argued that Twitter's 73 percent first-day "pop" was a sign that the microblogging stock was underpriced, not proof of runaway investor optimism.
"I don't read the Chegg result as indicating the bubble was there and now it's gone," he said. "The Twitter IPO does show there's an appetite out there. There's going to be hits, and they're going to be misses."
Chegg CEO Dan Rosensweig, asked whether he was surprised by the market's tepid reaction, said he was thinking long-term.
"Our mission is to put students first," he said via email. "Today we raised the capital that allows us to further invest in our vision. … The market will do its job and we will do ours by staying focused and delivering long-term value."
Founded in 2005 by a group of Iowa State students and alumni, Chegg's name refers to the chicken-and-egg dilemma of students who need jobs to pay for college but have difficulty getting good jobs without an education. The company's co-founders hoped to help users get around that problem by cutting college costs; textbooks and supplies cost students roughly $1,200 a year, Chegg stated in its IPO filing.
Rosensweig took the company's reins in 2010 after stints as Yahoo's (YHOO) chief operating officer and president of tech news sites CNET and ZDNet.
Revenues and net losses have grown over the past three years. In 2012, Chegg lost $49 million on revenues of $213.3 million; over the first nine months of this year, the company lost $50.4 million while generating revenues of $178.5 million. In addition, deep-pocketed competitors like Google (GOOG) and Amazon have entered the textbook rental business.
Chegg has branched into other services in recent years, including study guides and online help with tough subjects. The company claimed in its prospectus that it reaches 30 percent of all college students and 40 percent of college-bound high school seniors.
"The additional element with Chegg is the broader set of offerings, the fact that we can be involved in many different aspects of a student's life," said Paul Holland, a general partner at venture firm Foundation Capital and a Chegg board observer.
"The physical textbook market was a great opening for that," Holland added in a Wednesday phone interview, "and then over time we'll be in a lot of different areas."
Chegg has landed almost $200 million from Foundation and other venture capital firms such as Floodgate and Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. Its board includes Shutterfly Chief Executive Jeff Housenbold and San Francisco 49ers CEO Jed York.
The only insider selling any stock in the IPO, however, was co-founder Aayush Phumbhra. He unloaded 600,000 shares, retaining nearly 2 million after the offering.

He would get the same fate as his father, but he was in love with Thuma so much that he didn't care about anything.
Pawan met Sathorn, a man who helped him from attacking by a drunk man. Sathorn was in debt and saw that Pawan was very rich, so he tried to introduced Nian (Ploy), his daughter to Pawan. He asked Pawan to accepted Nian to work in his company. He told his daughter to try to seduce Pawan. Pawan accepted Nian to work in his company, but he was not interested in Nian more than just a young pretty girl because he loved Thuma so much. When Nian saw that Pawan was in love and dating Thuma, she was very jealous and wanted to win him.
Pawan told Thuma that he wanted to marry her, so Thuma told him to wait and she would divorce her husband to be with him.
Tao came back to Thailand with Aer, his new boyfriend after he had some trouble in America. His mother was very angry at him and refused to give him money anymore. One day, Aer saw that Thuma dating Pawan. They feared that Thuma would divorce Tao and Tao's mother would know that truth and be angrier at her son, so Aer told Tao to threaten Pawan to stay away from Thuma. Thuma asked to divorce with Tao but he refused it.
Nian created evil scheme. She tried to act as an innocent angel and flatter everyone who was close to Pawan, such as Panee, Pawan's aunt and his step-mother, and Pawan's secretary. She tried to get close to Pawan until everyone in company thought that she was dating Pawan and would be his wife in the future. Pawan couldn't refuse her when she asked him to give her a ride everyday or went out with him because he thought that she was his friend's daughter.
When Pawan's secretary took leave to give birth, Nian was assigned to work as a substitute. Nian kept obstructing Thuma and Pawan from seeing and talking each other.
After Thuma knew that she was pregnant with Pawan, she was very happy and wanted to tell him, but Nian still kept her from meeting him. Thuma was very hurt and thought that Pawan was bored of her and didn't want to see her anymore. She also heard everybody in company talking about the relationship between Pawan and Nian. She tried to send message to make appointment with him, but he didn't get it because of Nian and didn't go to see her. Thuma saw that Pawan went out with Nian instead of going to see her, so she decided to quit her job and go to Hawaii to stay with Tik, her youngest brother. Anyway, Pawan had no chance to see Thuma's resignation letter because Nian threw it away.
Jaengla, Pawan's lawyer friend, worked with Tao'mother accidentally knew that Thuma was going to leave for Hawaii, so he told Pawan. Pawan hurried to go and met Thuma at the airport before she left. Thuma was very hurt and told him she was going to leave with no return. Pawan didn't understand anything and thought that she didn't want him anymore, so he let her go.
After Thuma left, Pawan was very sorry. He kept drinking, getting drunk and sleeping around. One day, when Pawan was drunk and Nian took care of him, he thought of Thuma so much and kept raving about her. He thought that Nian was Thuma, so he hugged and kissed her and fell asleep after that. Nian was very angry when she heard Thuma's name and nothing happened as what she wanted. However, in the next morning, Pawan woke up naked and saw that Nian was crying. He though that he raped her. Nian tried to say that it was alright. She didn't care about it.
But later, Nian's father told Pawan that Nian was pregnant with him and forced him to marry his daughter. After marriage, Pawan realized that Nian was a materialist girl. He was bored of her and quarrelled with her so often. He started going out and sleeping around with a woman in a bar.
In Hawaii, Thuma heard the news that Pawan got amrried with Nian. She was very hurt. She told Tik, her brother about everything and told him that she wanted to get abortion, but after she got the accident and felt that the baby in her belly was moving, she changed her mind to keep the baby. She wanted to give birth her baby in Thailand, so she and Tik decided to go back Thailand.
Tik was the first guy that Tao used to sleep with, but at that time, Tik told Tao that he couldn't live his life like that with Tao, so they had to separate. Coming back to Thailand this time, they got back their relationship. Tik tried to open Tao's eyes seeing that Aer was not a good man. Aer was using and pimping him. Tik also told Tao about Thuma's baby with Pawan, a guy she loved, so Tao decided to let Thuma free and divorce her.
Nian tried to call for attention from Pawan, so she tried to commit suicide. Jaengla, Pawan's friend, could catch that Nian didn't get pregnant and unable to get pregnant anymore for the rest of her life. He also saw Thuma in the hospital giving birth a son. He knew that her baby was Pawan's baby, so he told Pawan.
Nian asked for a lot of dowry for divorce from Pawan, and Pawan didn't refuse it. After divorce, Pawan tried to get back with Thuma and asked for her forgiveness.
Thuma didn't want to forgive him easily at first, but for the sake of thier son, she forgave him at last. They lived together happily after that and she got pregnant again.

Song: Dab Tawan (Put out the Sun)
Artist: Mai Charoenpura
มันไม่จริงใช่ไหม ที่บอกกันว่ารัก
It's not true that you told me you love me?
คำที่เคยสัญญา จะรักจนตาย
The words you promised that you will love me to death,
แต่เพียงแค่ไม่นาน ก็เปลี่ยนไปมีใครใคร
but not for long, you've changed to have someone else...
และทิ้งฉันไว้คนเดียว อย่างนี้
and leave me alone like this.
สิ่งที่เคยว่าหวาน มันกลับขมเกินไป
The thing that's used to be sweet turns to be too bitter.
เธอเบื่อแล้วใช่ไหม ถึงทำเช่นนั้น
You're bored of me, right? So, you've done that.
เธอลืมถ้อยคำสัญญา จะรักชั่วกาลนาน
You forget the promise that you would love me forever.
Finally, I mean nothing at all.
Please put out the sun for me.
Because I'm not worth enough to see...to remember.
I don't even want to look at myself.
เจ็บช้ำจนตาย ก็รู้ไม่มีผู้ใดเห็นใจและรักกันจริง
Though I'm hurt to death, I know no one sympathize and really love me.
ไม่อยากมองใครใคร ไม่อยากเห็นใครใคร
I don't want to look at anyone...don't want to see anyone...
ไม่อยากพบและเจอ ผู้ใดทั้งนั้น
don't want to meet and face anyone.
จะอยู่กับความมืดมน ให้มันผ่านพ้นไปวันวัน
I will be with the darkness to let it pass by day by day.
No matter how suffering it is, I must let it be.
Though I'm hurt to death to make you turn to see me,
I know it's no way.
Though I'm dying, I know you will not turn to see me.
because you're not like the same person.
Original Soundtrack
Song: Ja Hai Chan Tam Yang Ngai (What do you want me to do?)
Artist: Potato
I know the rule and I see the truth...
ว่าเราทำผิด ที่มารักกันอย่างนี้
that we're wrong for loving each other like this.
ทั้งที่รู้ดีแก่ใจ ว่าเจ้าของเธอมี
Though I know well that you have the owner.
เจ็บปวดกับคำนี้ แต่มันคือเรื่องจริงใครก็รู้
I'm hurt with this word but it's the truth that everyone also know.
แม้สมองจะคอยสั่ง คอยบอกให้ฉันนั้นเลิกไป
Though my brain keeps telling me to stop.
But deeply, do you know I want to love?
What do you want me to do?
จะให้ถอนใจจากเธอ ก็คงสายจนเกินไป
To withdraw my heart from you, it may be too late.
แต่ถ้าฉันจะไปต่อ ก็ไม่เห็นหนทางจะไป
But if I go on, I see no way to go,
no any hope at all.
ฉันไม่รู้วันต่อไป ฉันไม่พร้อมจะเจอมัน
I don't know the next day. I'm not ready to face it.
ฉันไม่ตต้องการ ที่จะถามถึงวันพรุ่งนี้
I don't want to ask about tomorrow.
เพราะว่าฉันนั้นสุขใจกับชีวิตที่ดี มีเธออย่างวันนี้
Because I'm happy with a good life having you like today.
That's enough for me.

The Luke Schenn-James van Riemsdyk trade seemed like a bad one for the Philadelphia Flyers when it happened. After a season and a half, it looks even worse — van Riemsdyk is an Olympian for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and deservedly so. Schenn has regressed.
On Sunday, it actually got a little worse for Philly. General manager Paul Holmgren turned down a trade that would've sent van Riemsdyk to the Phoenix Coyotes for defenseman Keith Yandle a few hours before pulling the trigger on Schenn-JVR, according to CSN Philly's Tim Panaccio. Discussions between the two teams were reported at the time, but this is the first time we've seen it in such uncertain terms: the Flyers could've had Yandle, and said no thanks.
MORE: Lessons from the Bobby Ryan saga
The reason it came up: Yandle, surprisingly, missed out on the U.S. Olympic team. He's an elite puck-mover, but USA Hockey had concerns over his perceived high-risk style and suitability on the top four. He also can only play on the left side. Holmgren, by the way, helped choose the team.
From Scott Burnside's all-access piece on the selection process:
"It's not that he wouldn't be on the power play if he were on the team," (former Flyers coach Peter) Laviolette says. "But the risk in his game seems to be more than Dan's willing to take or wants to take with that type of player," he adds referring to head coach Dan Bylsma.
One fan: L.A. Kings coach Dean Lombardi, who wrote what was referred to as "The Yandle Manifesto" in the piece. It was funny.
"Yandle is clearly the only guy that I would consider for this team. I started this trying to figure out why the kid isn't basically amongst the top six," Lombardi says.
Because the central knock on Yandle is that he's not responsible enough defensively, Lombardi says he focused on situations in which this might be revealed in Yandle's game and how the same assessment might be applied to the other candidates.
There is no question, he says, that Yandle is the superior puck-mover and uses a combination of superior skating and passing ability to move the puck quickly up the rink.
He is the highest-scoring American defenseman over the past four years, Lombardi points out.
"Why are we discounting this kid?" he asks. If they use the theory espoused by some that inclusion should be based on current level of play and body of work, "This kid's right up there with Duncan Keith in terms of points over the past four years."
In any case, Yandle isn't on Team USA — or the Philadelphia Flyers.

If you ever happened to be at the Bedford YMCA when Sgt. Charles Nelms of the Bedford Police Department was lifting weights, you knew why it was foolish for anybody to try to resist arrest when he hauled that person in. In his prime, Nelms bench pressed 365 pounds.
Nelms officially retired on July 1 and the Police Department held a farewell dinner for him at Olde Liberty Station Monday. During the dinner, officers who worked with him and for him offered compliments and some humorous stories.
Several people spoke Monday evening, during the citizen comment period that precedes every board of supervisors meeting, urging the county leaders to act soon to hire a new tourism director.
The job came open last month when the previous tourism director, Sergei Troubetzkoy, left to take a job with Lynchburg starting that city's first tourism department.
Bedford County's supervisors voted 6-0, with District 7 Supervisor Tammy Parker absent, to appropriate the county's $89.38 million general fund budget for the fiscal year that starts on July 1. The budget's capital improvement fund includes $800,000 designated for emergency apparatus. It also includes $2 million for water and sewer debt service.
The Bedford Regional Water Authority (BRWA) needs to stick a bigger straw in Smith Mountain Lake.
The new water treatment plant BRWA will build on the former Camp 24 site will be able to treat up to 6 million gallons of water a day, according to Brian Key, BRWA's director. He said the current High Point plant draws up to 1 million gallons a day. This means BRWA will need a larger water intake pipe, bigger pumps and a larger pump house.

A letter written by School Board Chairman Gary Hostutler to the Bedford Regional Water Authority (BRWA) may have created some confusion about the Moneta Elementary sewer project.
But, according to Brian Key, executive director of the water authority, the letter isn't the issue at all.
People in Bedford will be seeing higher water and sewer bills. A new rate schedule, approved by the Bedford Regional Water Authority's (BRWA) board of directors last week, will take effect on July 1.
According to Brian Key, the rate structure depends on the volume of water used and the meter size.
"Your average customer is going to have a $3 increase on water and a $4 increase on sewer," Key said.
Bedford County's supervisors may have decided last week to help fund an extension of sewer lines in Moneta.
This would solve Moneta Elementary School's failing septic system problem, although the proposal that District 5 Supervisor Steve Arrington brought up at the very end of last week's meeting, just a little before midnight, would treat it as an economic development measure and funnel the funds though the Economic Development Authority (EDA) instead of transferring the money to the school board.
Unlike the Commonwealth of Virginia, Bedford County has a budget.
The problem is, the county will only be able to appropriate local revenue until the state adopts its budget. Monday night, the county's supervisors adopted an $89,337,592 general fund budget on a 6-1 vote.
A joint public hearing between the Bedford County Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors packed the supervisors' meeting chamber, Monday night.
It wasn't even standing room only. Every seat was taken, people lined three sides of the room while others stood in the hall because there was no room for them.
Bedford County Director of Tourism Sergei Troubetzkoy is leaving his position here to become the city of Lynchburg's director of tourism.
Lynchburg City Manager Kim Payne announced Tuesday that he had appointed Troubetzkoy to that position, effective July 2.

Cathy Kramer needed a new stationery design and created a contest on 99designs.
2 winners were selected from 28 designs submitted by 9 freelance designers.
We are a professional traffic control company located in Denver, Colorado. The company provides traffic control solutions that meet the strict work zone safety needs of Colorado road construction projects. Our flaggers pride themselves on being professional, "best-in-safety" crews. We offer road construction sign set up and tear down, day and nighttime traffic control services, channeling devices, permits and equipment, traffic control plans and traffic analysis and restructuring. When you see a set of orange cones and workers in bright yellow vests directing you safely through a road construction zone in Colorado, that may be StreetWise!
The company provides services to the B2B and B2G markets. Our target audience is decision-makers of medium to large corporations (prime contractors in highway construction and horizontal development), as well as state and municipal government (project managers/engineers and procurement).
Typically, this audience is comprised of educated males between the ages of 35 – 50 who are business-oriented with engineering backgrounds. Representative clients from past projects that fall in this category are Colorado Department of Transportation, Sema Construction, Edward Kraemer & Sons and Keiwit Western.
StreetWise has an existing logo and we would like to leverage it into business cards and letterhead. Our color palette is orange, yellow and black. We would like to stay within this range for the stationary however we are open to designs with complementary colors (e.g., grey). We are okay with a 4-color design rather than sticking to 2-color to save a little on print costs.
The design should be clean and professional rather than comic (many of our competitors use clip art of traffic control signs) or playful (because safety is our mantra, we need to be taken seriously). As a startup, we would like to portray an image of a larger company that has the experience and resources to be a trusted partner for large-scale highway construction projects.
Business cards should be double-sided with logo/tagline (see attached .jpg) and graphic design on front. Information for back:
Traffic Control & Sign Co.
12080 E. 3rd Ave.
Aurora, CO 80111
(Anywhere on card - don't have to use the word "Certified")

Phone: 303-369-9600
Fax: 720-536-0992
Email: email@example.com
Letterhead (standard 8 1/2" x 11") should include the company logo and tagline, mailing address, website URL, phone and fax numbers. At a minimum as a PDF. We would like to be able to turn it into an MS Word doc.

I do love a yoghurt cake; it's something to do with the lightness of texture and the rich tang to the finished sponge's flavour. This is a simple cake (in method and in look) but it packs lots of flavour.
Total Yoghurt very kindly donated a selection of their yoghurts for me to bake with, well, I say "a selection" but in truth their generosity virtually filled a whole shelf in my fridge!
If you don't like rum you can omit it from the cake or replace it with any spirit, or indeed other flavour, that you wish. I used extremely dark overproof rum as I love the syrupy kick it packs.
This isn't a crumbly cake in the Victoria sponge genre; it's a really moist, springy sponge – I reckon it would keep for days...I'm surmising here because, as usual, mine didn't hang around that long!
A random thought that has occurred to me whilst writing this blog post: "Yoghurt" is one of those words that the more you type it or say it, the less it feels like a real word. I hope it is a real word – I've lost all sense of judgement on the matter!
A second random thought is that neither pronunciation of the word makes it sound any better. I'm definitely in the "yoggert" school and feel myself flinching every time I encounter a "yo-gert" eater! Whether you're reading this as Yoggert cake or Yo-gert cake, I hope you enjoy it!
For the cake:
250g Greek yoghurt – I used Total 2%
200g caster sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
80ml vegetable oil
1 tablespoon dark rum – I used Gosling's Black Seal 151 proof
240g plain flour flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
For the icing:
115g /4oz icing sugar – I used golden icing sugar
½ tablespoon dark rum
1 tablespoon water – add more if required
Preheat the oven to 180C/fan oven 160C/350F/Gas 4.
Line a 20cm springform round cake tin with baking paper.
Whisk together the yoghurt and the sugar.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
Beat in the vanilla, oil and rum.
Weigh out the flour and add the baking powder and bicarbonate of soda to it.
Sift into the yoghurt batter and mix until just combined.
Pour into the prepared tin and level the surface.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
Leave to cool on a wire rack until you can safely handle and turn out the cake.
Leave to cool completely on the wire rack.
Now make the icing: Beat together the icing sugar and orange juice until smooth and glossy.
Pour over the cool cake and smooth, before leaving to set.
Bask in the glory of the wonderful thing you have created.

What Rare Sports Feat Will Happen Next? — Sports Survey of the Day
There are plenty of records in professional sports. Some are somewhat easily broken and some seem unreachable. So which rare feat will be next?We thought that we were going to see a horse racing feat over the weekend, but those hopes were extinguished when news broke Friday that I'll Have Another was scratched from the Belmont Stakes. The horse would be retired later that day. Once again we got close to a horse racing Triple Crown, but don't get to see it. It's now been 34 years since that accomplishment has been reached.
Some of the unbelievable records in sports are individual, while others are a complete team effort. It would take one heck of a team to beat the Los Angeles Lakers' 33-game winning streak in the NBA. In baseball, we had two pitchers earn the triple crown in 2011, which hadn't happened since 2007. Hitting for a triple crown is even rarer — the last hitter to do it was in 1967.

The Great Summer Outdoors: the Beach
The Great Summer Outdoors: the Beach
2015-08-17 - Whether it's downtown or a five-hour flight away, going to the beach is a guaranteed good day out. Here's how we avoid heatstroke and maximise the fun!
Who doesn't remember building sand castles and jumping through waves as a child? If not an actual sandy port, maybe a lake, lagoon or loch dominated some part of your childhood. To recreate endless fun for your own kids and a relaxing time for yourself – without ending up looking like a beachcomber –follow these simple tips to help you on your way.
While the older kids are cavorting in the sea, building sand castles and burying themselves (and each other) elbow-deep in the sand, the beach itself can potentially be a bit boring for the youngest brood. While some may be lucky enough to visit tropical bounty beaches complete with warm yet refreshing water, most of us are not. Don't think for a minute we're going in waist deep through salt, sludge and a potential cardiac arrest due to freezing temperatures. Instead we're bringing a small inflatable pool to keep our youngest close and entertained – okay, and to have our own personal foot spa. Inflatables, plastic toys, bath books, basically anything that jumps in at bath time is suitable for this VIP swimming area.
Images Jessica Hartley
The beach used to be such a relaxing place before there were toddlers in our midst, now we are constantly searching the horizon, hawk's eye firmly fixed on our brood. There are ways to minimise the risk – and sheer terror – of losing a kid at a crowded beach. Brightly-coloured lycra shirts are great and even provide extra sun protection, but writing your phone number on your kid's arm (with non-toxic, waterproof ink) is always a good idea, just in case.
The more the merrier certainly applies to beach visits, the more grownups that is. Take shifts spotting the kids while the other relaxes with monthly horoscopes, celebrity gossip and beauty news; short bursts of info are best for the beach so don't bother brining your Kafka.

Sand patties
Beaches tend to be pretty sandy, and the sand will get everywhere. In your ears, up your nose, up your… you get the idea, it's sandy. Although this is all part of the fun, the texture of sand combined with sandwiches just isn't great. A little baby powder on sandy hands will get most of it off but there is no shame in hand-feeding. Portioned snacks are great – if you drop one, just grab a new one – and we love the idea of bringing frozen goods such as water and fruit, which will remain cold, meaning less need for a cooler!
Don't forget your stroller doubles as a shaded lounge bed for baby and a vessel for transporting all your beach essentials! And we hardly need to remind you, but as Baz Lhurmann's 1999 anthem taught us: "Wear sunscreen."
