"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life." John 3:14,15
Suggested Further Reading: John 12:20-36
Let each of us who are called to the solemn work of the ministry remember, that we are not called to lift up doctrine, or church governments, or particular denominations; our business is to lift up Christ Jesus and to preach him fully. There may be times when church government is to be discussed, and peculiar doctrines are to be vindicated. God forbid that we should silence any part of truth: but the main work of the ministry—its every day work—is just exhibiting Christ, and crying out to sinners, "Believe, believe, believe on him who is the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world." And let it be remembered, that if the minister preaches Christ plainly, that is all he has to do; if with affection and prayer he preaches Christ fully, if there were never a soul saved—which I believe would be impossible—he would have done his work, and his Master would say, "Well done."
I have gone away from this hall, after preaching upon various doctrines, and though many have complimented me, foolishly, I have said to myself, "I can but groan that I had such a subject at all." And at another time, when I have been faltering in my delivery, and committed a thousand blunders in my speech, I have gone away as happy as a prince, because I have said, "I did preach Christ." There was enough for sinners to be saved by; and if all the papers in the world should abuse me, and all the men in the world should say 'cry him down'; he will still live and still breathe as long as he feels in himself, "I have preached to sinners, and Christ has been preached to them, so as they could understand and lay hold on him and be saved."
For meditation: "We would see Jesus" (John 12:21) is not just something to say to the preacher, but something to pray for the preacher (Colossians 4:3,4).

Even as former U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan rushed to Damascus to meet Syria's President Bashar al-Assad on March 10 in a futile effort to achieve a ceasefire, church aid workers were scrambling to find housing for hundreds of Syrian refugees fleeing the increasing violence. About 200 families made their way to the border town of Qaa in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon on March 5 and were struggling in the region's near-freezing temperatures.
The Rev. Simon Faddoul, president of Caritas Lebanon, said that "women and children and the elderly are coming out in the cold with nothing but the clothes on their backs." The United Nations reported that as many as 2,000 Syrians crossed into Lebanon on March 5 and 6 to escape violence that has claimed hundreds of lives as President al-Assad continues a brutal crackdown on resistance to his regime.
Father Faddoul said most of the refugees arrived on foot from areas near the besieged city of Homs. "They are leaving the young men behind in Syria to guard their houses" from attack, Father Faddoul said. "These are people fleeing from war, their homes under bombardment." Before the latest surge, about 100 families had fled to Lebanon and were receiving assistance from Caritas, the priest said. Father Faddoul estimated that about 40 of the newly arrived families were Christian; the rest were Muslim.
"This has nothing to do with religion. Whenever there is suffering, we have to be there with them and to help them," he said. Father Faddoul said the availability of adequate housing in the poverty-stricken town of Qaa is limited. About 35 refugees are currently crammed into small rooms, but Caritas is collaborating with municipal officials to locate homes that three or four families could share.
Caritas Lebanon has had a regular presence in the Bekaa Valley, coordinating programs in agriculture to address the region's poverty. "Now we have so many [new] concerns—how to find shelters, especially if the situation [in Syria] drags on," Faddoul said. "We hope the situation doesn't deteriorate further," he added.
In Ottawa, Ontario, Carl Hetu, national director of the Catholic Near East Welfare Association, said his agency was monitoring the situation of Christians in Syria. "Right now," he said, "there are thousands of people who are displaced. Among them are Christians, but that has been because of the conflict, not because of direct attacks on them." Many fear that as the uprising among Syria's primarily Sunni majority persists, minority groups, like the politically powerful Alawites and the nation's Christian communities, could become targets for sectarian reprisals.
"Christians are stuck between a rock and a hard place," Hetu said. "They cannot show approval of the Assad government, but they have to be careful, because they can't be seen to be supporting the rebels, either."
Mr. Hetu said his agency was preparing for a possible massive influx of Syrian refugees to neighboring Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan, should the already tense situation grow worse. "Our offices in Jordan and Beirut are expecting the worst if the country goes into wide civil war or the Assad government falls," he said.

The Austin College softball team split its season opening doubleheader against Alverno College on Thursday night, falling 7-2 in extra innings in game one before shutting out the Inferno 6-0 in game two. The 'Roos are now 1-1 this season.
In game one, Alverno jumped on top early with an RBI double from Stef Wilmore in the top of the first, but in the bottom of the second Briana Hernandez gave the 'Roos a 2-1 lead when she launched a home run to left in her first collegiate at bat. That's how the score would remain until the fifth, when Alverno plated another run to square things up on an RBI double from Lauren Colette.
That's how things would stand after seven, and after one scoreless extra frame the Inferno exploded for five runs in the top of the ninth to make it a 7-2 game and the 'Roos were unable to get anything going in the bottom half of the inning.
Sam Matulis went the distance for the 'Roos, surrendering seven runs, six earned, on 15 hits with eight strikeouts and two walks. Rachel Ramos and Jessica Baker each had a pair of hits and Hernandez finished 1-for-4 with a homer and two RBI.
In game two, Sophia Hernandez turned in a gem in her first collegiate start, pitching a three hit, complete game shutout with seven strikeouts and just one walk. Hernandez took a no-hitter into the fourth in the game, and that's also the first inning either team would get on the scoreboard as the 'Roos jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the bottom half of the inning.
The scoring got started when Taylor Steelman drew a walk with the bases loaded, and Amber Pemberton did the rest with a pinch hit double off the fence in left field to plate three more runs. All four runs game with two outs in the inning. Two more runs would cross the plate in the sixth as Ramos slapped an RBI single into right and came home to score from first on a double by Baker to make it a 6-0 game.
Baker, Briana Hernandez, and Chelsea Delaney each had two hits in the game and Jenny Dowsey scored a pair of runs and the 'Roos totaled 10 hits as a team.
Austin College is back in action tomorrow when travel to Longview to play a doubleheader at LeTourneau starting at 4:00 p.m.
Austin College athletic teams participate as a member of the NCAA Division III and the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference.

The new iPad, the one with a whopping 128 GB of storage, is only $70 cheaper than the cheapest Macbook.
To some people, that seems insane.
Macbooks, with their USB ports, keyboards, and mouses can do a lot more than an iPad.
Partly because of this tiny gap in price, Gizmodo says the new iPad is "A lmost Definitely Not For You."
But smart New York tech startup scene guy Drew Breunig makes a smart point.
First he quotes Apple's release on the big iPad:
iPad continues to have a significant impact on business with virtually all of the Fortune 500 and over 85 percent of the Global 500 currently deploying or testing iPad. Companies regularly utilizing large amounts of data such as 3D CAD files, X-rays, film edits, music tracks, project blueprints, training videos and service manuals all benefit from having a greater choice of storage options for iPad. The over 10 million iWork® users, and customers who rely on other incredible apps like Global Apptitude for analyzing team film and creating digital playbooks, Auria for an incredible 48 track recording system, or AutoCAD for drafting architectural and engineering drawings, also benefit greatly from having the choice of an iPad with more storage capacity.
Then he says that Apple will sell a boatload of these things because "This is the iPad Pro."
"An enterprise iPad, if you will. It will sell, mainly to businesses and independent contractors."
Meanwhile, Jay Yarow says the end of the Mac is coming, and Apple is thrilled.

Members of the Land Use Planning and Zoning Committee discussed the city's ongoing efforts to reform the zoning code and its impact on Chestnut Hill's zoning hearing process.
Under the proposed zoning code, any applicant seeking zoning relief would be required only to conduct a single neighborhood meeting with a new entity identified as a Registered Community Organization (RCO) within the project area before they could present their case before the Zoning Hearing Board. An RCO is defined as a community organization that is registered with the City Planning Commission, and "maintains its registration status pursuant to rules established by the CPC." RCOs are organized around geographical areas, not specific issues. Any developer or property owner seeking a zoning variance from the ZBA must notify and meet with any or all RCOs within the boundaries of the property in question.
Language pertaining to the registration of RCOs has raised concerns that the CHCA may be undermined as the recognized community organization in Chestnut Hill. The one meeting requirement has prompted fears that the established development review process could become extinct.
LUPZ Committee co-chair John Landis and committee member Steve Gendler met with Eva Gladstein, executive director of the Philadelphia Zoning Code Commission, to discuss these concerns.
"It was a cordial meeting, but I think Eva was not particularly sympathetic to our position," Landis said.
According to Landis, Gladstein felt that a significant amount of work has been done to date and there is little interest in making additional changes that would uphold the CHCA's process.
Landis said Gladstein told him any conflicts between the CHCA and other RCOs would be settled before the ZBA. Landis offered that the CHCA was a value-adding organization that worked with developers to make proposals better – more than just concerned residents. She was "not sympathetic to that."
Her response was "almost eye-rolling," Gendler said.
"Let them all roll their eyes at us," said committee member and co-chair of the Development Review Committee Larry McEwen. "I only care about the value-added process we provide."
Landis proposed two possible solutions: a change to the new code that would make the CHCA the permanent RCO or the creation of a second level of review that would preserve the established process in Chestnut Hill.
"We spend some time being considerate about these projects and engaging in dialogue with the project sponsors and the community to try and improve them," said Landis. "For whatever reason, Eva doesn't feel that that process added value and…I think it's fair to say her general view is that if there are conflicts or disagreements they should be brought before the Zoning Board of Adjustment. And that's not our position."
McEwen asked about the position of a group called the Cross Town Coalition, saying he'd be surprised if the CHCA were the only group with concerns. He suggested the next step should be coordinated with other groups that would be affected by these changes.
McEwen said his concern was with the "truncation" of the entire review process.
Ned Mitinger said that the professionalism of the participants in CHCA committees provide greater input and offer a broader grasp of the facts, although other groups may feel more strongly about certain issues because a project is in their back yard.
"A lot of entities here in Chestnut Hill would probably qualify in the new RCO category," Mitinger said.
He concurred that the new code should be written as clearly as possible to emphasize the community association's role as the established RCO.
"I would recommend that we have the Board meet with the City Council person as well as any other person who represents Chestnut Hill," Mitinger said.
Landis told the Committee that he would reach out to the other groups in the city to gauge their concerns with the one-meeting requirement and report back at the September meeting.

Read: Quincey Claim
UPLAND – Former City Manager Robb Quincey has filed a notice of claim with the city over his termination.
Quincey, who was terminated in May by the City Council, is seeking unlimited damages, accusing the city of breaching his employment contract, wrongful termination and violating labor codes.
The claim also accuses Mayor Ray Musser and Councilman Ken Willis of defamation and placing Quincey in false light.
Quincey seeks reimbursement for attorney's fees associated with filing the claim as well as indemnification of his defense costs in the federal grand jury investigation of the city of Upland, per his employment agreement.
"I guess the overall feeling is that Robb Quincey had a deal with the city, and a deal's a deal," said Joseph Wohrle, Quincey's civil attorney.
In addition, according to the claim, the city withheld payments and other benefits that were due to Quincey. The city also took inappropriate deductions from funds due to him as well as from his retirement and similar funds, according to the claim.
Wohrle said he did not want to disclose the amount of damages Quincey may be seeking, but said "unlimited" means more than $25,000.
"Well, there is a dollar amount, we just have not finished the calculations, but they are substantial we believe," Wohrle said.
An amount will also be sought for the defamation and false light claims, he said.
"There will be a dollar amount, but because of the damages to Mr. Quincey's livelihood it is at this time incalculable," he said.
Willis and Musser said they were advised by the city attorney not to comment.
Quincey's employment agreement with the city included an arbitration provision, Wohrle said.
"So we anticipate that if the claim is not resolved beforehand, then ultimately we will be in arbitration," he said. "We would certainly be interested in entertaining a settlement offer or discussing settlement with the city, but we already tried to do that."
Quincey was placed on paid leave of absence in January following reports that he settled two claims in January 2010 involving Upland police for $50,000, which at the time surpassed the amount he was allowed to settle.
However according to Quincey's claim, the two claims were settled separately for $25,000 each, which was within his authority.
The council terminated Quincey for violating his employment contract and failing to follow specific council direction. However, the city never specified the violations that resulted in his termination, Wohrle said.
The claim states that, based on the events leading up to his termination, Quincey believes he was terminated for scrutinizing the billing practices of City Attorney William Curley and his firm, Richards, Watson & Gershon; refusing to execute a waiver of conflicts of interest that would have allowed the law firm to to represent other local municipalities and/or water agencies of which the city was a member, in some instances, in litigation matters against the city; as well as his settlement of the two Upland police claims.
According to the claim, the reasons for termination constitute a wrongful termination and violated the state's public policy and labor codes.
"It is my understanding that the former city manager benefited greatly from his personal relationship with the former mayor, much at the expense of Upland taxpayers," said Councilman Gino Filippi. "Unfortunate to say the least. I would vote again to terminate his contract if I had the opportunity."
City Councilman Brendan Brandt said, "I have been advised by the city attorney that the matter is now a legal matter, and that I have no comment other than it'll run through the standard legal process with the city."
Cause for termination
Quincey's claim alleges three causes for his termination, which he believes to be in violation of his employment agreement with the city as well as other labor laws and public policy.
Quincey's claim alleges part of the reason for his termination was because he conducted a third-party audit of the billings from Curley and his law firm.
In November 2010, Quincey asked the city's third-party claims investigator, NovaPro Risk Solutions, to audit one month of the law firm's legal fees on the litigation involving the San Bernardino County Flood Control District and G3 Holistic, a medical marijuana cooperative in Upland.
In an email sent in December to Quincey from then-Finance Director Stephen Dunn, who is now city manager, Dunn noted several instances in which the city may have been billed amounts that were "excessive and possibly frivolous."
Quincey relayed the concerns to the City Council.
The day before Dunn sent his email, the city received a federal grant jury subpoena seeking documents related to a claim by then-Upland police Sgt. John Moore, alleging he was harassed and passed over for a promotion because he had investigated a domestic dispute involving Quincey, as well as payments made to police union attorney Dieter Dammeier and emails, police reports and other documents involving Quincey.
The city was being investigated by the FBI at the time.
Former Mayor John Pomierski was eventually indicted in March on federal corruption charges.
On Dec. 8, Quincey informed the City Council that Curley was requesting a list of federal projects budgeted for the city, which he believed to be far beyond the scope of the subpoena.
According to the claim, Quincey was concerned that Curley was retaliating against him because of the audit as well as his prior refusal to execute any waiver of conflicts of interest that would have allowed his law firm to represent other local municipalities and/or water agencies of which the city was a member, in some instances, in litigation matters against the city.
According to the claim, the city violated a labor code because Quincey's audit was protected conduct.
Two settlements
In December 2009, Dammeier filed a claim on behalf of Upland police demanding the city pay them for "donning and doffing" – the time putting on and taking off their uniforms and gear.
Quincey settled the claim in January 2010 for $25,000 in attorney's fees and $57,816 in damages owed to Dammeier's firm, Lackie, Dammeier & McGill.
Quincey reported the claim to the council, which gave unanimous approval of the settlement, according to the claim.
That same month, Dammeier emailed a tort claim to Quincey on behalf of Moore who investigated the domestic incident involving Quincey and an ex-fiancee.
According to the police report for the incident, officers were called to the home of Quincey's ex-fiancee on July 27, 2008, after she received three text messages from him that she found threatening.
The officers also investigated claims that Quincey kicked and punched her car when she was leaving his residence earlier in the day.
No charges were filed.
Quincey agreed to settle with the officer for $25,000 in attorney fees and a promotion to lieutenant.
Quincey negotiated the settlement with the approval of former Mayor John Pomierski, according to the claim.
Quincey did not need approval to settle for $25,000 nor was he required to report the existence of Moore's claim to the council, according to Quincey's claim.
"I can tell you Mr. Quincey had the authority to settle the Moore claim, and he settled it within that authority," Wohrle said. "And certainly it was not hidden and as I said earlier the check that was issued was issued pursuant to the normal channel."
The two checks were written in January and August of 2010, after being processed through the city's Finance Department. The payments were included on the city treasurer's registers as well as approved by the City Council's Finance Committee, according to the claim.
Quincey's claim also seeks damages caused by comments made by Willis and Musser in public and in the newspaper.
"Each of these statements would be highly offensive to a reasonable person," according to the claim. "Musser and Willis each knew, or with the exercise of reasonable diligence should have known, of the falsity of each of these statements and of the false light in which such statements would have placed and did place Claimant."
Damages sought as a result of the alleged defamation could be determined by an expert specializing in how one's ability to find work again is impaired by such statements, according to Wohrle.
Quincey has been impaired in his ability to find a new job, he said.
"Robb Quincey is 51 years old and I hope he lives a long life and he wants to go back to work, but at this point he can't get the kind of work that is commensurate with his education, training and experience," he said. "He certainly doesn't want to retire."

I finally got to see League of Extraordinary Gentlemen on the satellite. Ouch. And I like comic book movies... I can't imagine how people who don't share that taste felt about this one (and I don't want to imagine what Alan Moore must think). On a happier note, I got to see Hero in the theater the other day. A good Jet Li movie... who knew? But I still have a vexing movie situation facing me: I have a free pass to see Alien versus Predator, but it's actually not playing at the local cineplex(?), meaning to see it I will have to (gasp) break with my movie routine. That's pretty drastic, we'll just have to see how that goes.

Potato Salad with Crunchy Pastirma
October 16th, 2009 | Category: Salad
The inspiration for this potato salad came when I was preparing eggs & pastırma for a brunch with friends. For those who haven't heard of it before, pastırma (pass-trrr-mah) is an air-dried cured beef, which I consider to be one of the ultimate treats for a typical Turkish breakfast or brunch. Pastırma is believed to be the origin of the Italian pastrami, but for me the taste ...

"This symposium is truly unique in that it brings together a diverse audience all with a common interest," said Raymond Schneider, symposium coordinator and plant pathology professor with the LSU AgCenter.
Leaders in state and federal government, grower organizations, international institutions, research, Extension, crop consulting, agribusiness, and others will collectively hear results, determine progress, and share perspectives on soybean rust in the 2007 growing season.
"The 2007 symposium will examine Asian soybean rust from virtually every angle," said Schneider. "In addition to opportunities to network and explore new areas of investigation, the symposium will feature presentations and discussions on such topics as molecular biology and genetics, development of disease resistant varieties, use of fungicides, disease management strategies and tactics, computer simulations, and other areas of importance.
"New this year will be a session devoted to experiences and perceptions of producers and crop consultants," he said.
For more information, visit www.apsnet.org/online/sbr/.
Proceedings from the 2005 and the 2006 soybean rust symposium are available on the Plant Management Network's Soybean Rust Information Center ( www.plantmanagementnetwork.org/infocenter).
APS is a non-profit, professional scientific organization. The research of the organization's 5,000 worldwide members advances the understanding of the science of plant pathology and its application to plant health.

Blues Agree to Terms with Pochiroby Staff Writer / St. Louis Blues
ST. LOUIS – St. Louis Blues President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Doug Armstrong announced Wednesday the club has agreed to terms with forward Zach Pochiro on a three-year entry-level contract.
Pochiro, 20, has spent the past two years with the Prince George Cougars of the Western Hockey League (WHL).
This season, the 6-foot-1, 162-pound forward has dressed in 63 games, ranking third on the club with 66 points (27 goals, 39 assists) while leading the team with 123 penalty minutes.
Prior to Blues training camp, Pochiro represented the club at the 2013 Prospect Tournament in Traverse City, Michigan, where he posted two points (one goal, one assist) and eight penalty minutes in four games.
Originally born in St. Louis, and a native of Las Vegas, Pochiro was originally drafted by the Blues in the fourth round, 112th overall, of the 2013 NHL Draft.

LOWELL -- He points to a knee, to a shoulder, to an ankle, to his neck. Having just been asked which injuries from his football glory days still pain him, 61-year-old Mike Esposito keeps pointing to body parts.
"It's a sick game," says Esposito, a former star running back at Wilmington High and Boston College who played three NFL seasons with the Atlanta Falcons before his career was ended by a flunked physical in Houston because of his injuries.
After providing his listener with a quick tour of crushed vertebrae, numb fingers, long-gone cartilage and long-ago touchdown runs, Esposito points to a funny-looking plastic device on a table in front of him.
Sun staff photos can be ordered by visiting our SmugMug site.
Esposito, who studied history and marketing at BC while rushing for 2,844 yards and scoring 27 touchdowns from 1972-74, channels his inner Thomas Edison; he describes an idea that came to him in his sleep after another day when he and a friend hobbled by Lyme disease labored to keep their construction projects straight and level.
Why isn't there an easy-to-use hands-free bubble level that attaches onto anything regardless of shape?
Old aches and pains became the mother of invention. Such a device, "The Beny," was born late last year. Esposito named it after a friend's father.
One of Esposito's old college teammates, Tom Ward, a marketing coordinator for a private-equity firm, is in on the ground floor.
"The Beny" website already teems with testimonials from satisfied users. An infomercial could be in the works. The patent is pending.
Dennis Scannell, former head football coach at Lowell High and UMass Lowell who is president of Lowell Iron and Steel on Tanner Street, rolled his eyes when Esposito, an old friend with a million ideas, first tried to explain his invention to him.
Sun staff photos can be ordered by visiting our SmugMug site.
"I'm thinking, 'What is this? A part to a still? What is he getting me into?'" recalls Scannell, who back when he played football at Villanova, once caught BC's Esposito from behind at the 1-yard line on a kickoff return.
Scannell now sounds like he is auditioning for the infomercial, "It's better than I ever could have imagined," says Scannell, who has used Esposito's invention on numerous projects, including during the construction of the Richard P. Howe Bridge.
There must be something about the football mind that is always searching for the next way to beat the blitz, defend the screen, keep the Howe Bridge's steel level. Tennessee Titans safety Bernard Pollard, a notorious Patriots-killer who as a Kansas City Chief took out Tom Brady's left knee in the 2008 season-opener, recently patented a tray he invented that fits into sinks and is designed to alleviate clutter.
"Football players think analytically when playing," says Esposito. "It's all training from sports."
Esposito's name is prominent in any discussion about this area's greatest high school football players ever. Injuries his senior year in college caused Esposito to slip into the seventh round of the 1975 NFL draft. He began his senior season at BC projected as a possible first-round pick.
Esposito, who was Billerica High's head football coach from 1983-89, lives in Hampton, N.H. with his wife Lee. They have two grown daughters and one grandson. Esposito has a company called Rockman Construction and two more construction-related inventions he is keeping secret until he applies for patents.
Football taught Esposito to be inventive and daring. He certainly had to be daring while running down on special teams during his NFL career.
He became more daring and inventive while serving as Paramount Pictures' consultant for the filming of the football scenes in School Ties, a 1992 movie shot locally that starred Brendan Fraser, Matt Damon and Chris O'Donnell. The film dealt with anti-Semitism. Bitten by the movie bug, Esposito wrote a screenplay for a football-theme movie set in Boston during school desegregation.
"Five producers read it," says Esposito. "But you have to be out there (in Hollywood) trying to push it for it to really have a chance."
Esposito wondered whether any business venture could ever ignite that heightened passion he felt when playing football.
"At (age) 61, here it is," he says, admiring "The Beny."

if I work directly with patients and do touch around their eyes, ears, and nose, but do not do any surgery or operations or anything invasive, could i still do this work if i had hiv?
Response from Mr. Chambers
As long as universal precautions are taken when working with patients, there should be almost no risk of transmission. This is recognized in the medical community and there is virtually no prohibition on persons with HIV treating patients.
That should be checked with your local medical groups and state laws. There are some areas where invasive procedures are still limited but that isn't the case in your situation.
But, overall, you should have no problem being permitted to work.
Good luck, Jacques

On my last visit to Manhattan, I was impressed at the rise in quality coffee. On this year's trip, I wanted to try two of the well known Chelsea espresso bars: Cafe Grumpy and Stumptown.
Cafe Grumpy is a surprisingly quiet little shop tucked away on West 20th Street. The set up is pretty no frills, but they do a good drink. My cappuccino had a nice, bright flavor and creamy texture. It was pretty standard third wave coffee fare, but the standard these days is high.
Stumptown Coffee, along with Intelligentsia, was one of the pioneers of the Third Wave. Founded in Portland in 1999, they now have outlets in Seattle and the one I visited on 29th Street in Manhattan. I've never been to a Stumptown, so I was excited to try it. Quite the contrast to the casual Cafe Grumpy, Stumptown had a long line and sort of an industrial feel. The seating area is the ultra-cool lobby of the Ace Hotel. The coffee at Stumptown was superb. The cappuccino was perfectly balanced with just the right amount of tannic notes coming out in the cup. I had an espresso as well. It was darker than what I'm used to from Intelligentsia, which I personally enjoy in an espresso, even if it's against the norm these days. (Note that the cappuccinos from Grumpy, above, and Stumptown, below, look almost exactly alike, down to the cup.)
All in all, both of these were great cafes. I enjoyed Stumptown's coffee more, but the ambiance was nicer at the less uptight Cafe Grumpy.

Jabari Parker was selected with the No. 2 overall pick in the first round by the Milwaukee Bucks in Thursday's NBA Draft, while Rodney Hood was taken No. 23 by the Utah Jazz. Duke has now had two or more players selected in the NBA Draft 16 times under head coach Mike Krzyzewski.BROOKLYN -- Duke's
"I'm going to bring everything I got," said Parker during a post-draft press conference in Brooklyn. " You know, you ain't got to ask for anything else. When I said that I was committed to going to Duke, I gave them everything I had, and even with my high school. So I'm going to try to do the same thing with Milwaukee."
Parker, a consensus first team All-America in 2014, averaged 19.1 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.2 assists per game while setting or tying Duke freshman records for points (670), points per game, rebounds (306), double-doubles (14), free throws made (160), free throws attempted (214), dunks (61), double-figure scoring games (33), 20-point games (18) and double-doubles (14). The 6-8, 235-pound forward from Chicago, Ill., was named the National Freshman of the Year, while also earning first team All-ACC and ACC Rookie of the Year accolades.
Parker also became the first Duke freshman (12th freshman in ACC history) to lead the team in scoring and rebounds. He closed out the year ranked fourth among ACC freshman all-time in scoring and 10th in rebound average. Parker and Joe Smith (Maryland) are the only two players to rank in the top 10 of both categories.
His top performance came on the biggest stage when he scored a career-high 30 points on 10-of-17 shooting to go along with 11 rebounds in a March 8 win over North Carolina. The 30-point game was the fifth in school history by a freshman and the first since Kyrie Irving had 31 against Michigan State on Dec. 1, 2010. Parker's 30-point effort was the most by a Duke freshman in the 238-game series history with North Carolina, breaking the previous freshman record of 29 points set by Austin Rivers on Feb. 8, 2012.
Hood, a second team All-ACC selection, averaged 16.1 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game in helping the Blue Devils to a 26-9 record and the program's 19th consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance last season. He finished the year ranked among the ACC leaders in scoring (8th, 16.1 ppg.), field goal percentage (4th, .464 – 191-of-412), free throw percentage (9th, .807 – 109-of-135), three-point percentage (1st, .420 – 71-of-169) and made three-pointers (8th, 2.03). Hood was the only player in the ACC to rank among the top 10 in each of those categories. The Meridian, Miss., native was second on the team with 30 double-figure scoring games, including 10 games with 20 or more points scored.
A transfer from Mississippi State where he was named to the SEC All-Freshman team in 2011-12, Hood had the most points and three-point field goals in a first season by a transfer under Coach K. He was at his best in Cameron Indoor Stadium, where he averaged 17.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game, while shooting 51.5 percent (101-of-196) from the field, 41.0 percent (34-of-83) from three-point range and 87.2 percent (68-of-78) from the free throw line.
"It has been my dream to play in the NBA and I am excited to be joining the Utah Jazz," said Hood. "I am looking forward to joining the franchise and getting to know my coaches and teammates. My two seasons at Duke have really helped me prepare for this moment and I can't wait to start the next phase of my basketball career."
Parker and Hood are the 13th and 14th NBA Draft early entrees from Duke. Nine of the 14 Blue Devil early entrees were selected in the NBA Draft Lottery, including No. 1 overall selections Elton Brand (1999) and Kyrie Irving (2011).
With two players selected in the 2014 NBA Draft, Krzyzewski has now mentored 49 draft selections, including 18 NBA Draft Lottery picks. Duke has produced 82 NBA draft picks overall.
Duke Draft Notes
• Parker and Hood become the 27th and 28th players under Coach K selected in the first round of the NBA Draft ... Coach K has now had more NBA first round draft selections (28) than any other coach in NCAA history.
• Duke has now had 20 first round selections in the last 17 years.
• Duke has had 35 players selected in the first round of the NBA Draft.
• Parker becomes the first Duke player selected by the Milwaukee Bucks.
• Parker is the third Duke player selected with the No. 2 pick in the NBA Draft. Jason Williams was taken second overall by the Chicago Bulls in 2002, while Danny Ferry was selected No. 2 by the Los Angeles Clippers in 1989.
• Hood becomes the first Blue Devil drafted by the Utah Jazz.
• Hood is also the first Duke player selected with the 23rd pick in the NBA Draft.
• Duke has had two or more players selected in the same draft 28 times, including 16 times since Coach K's arrival in Durham.

Courageous Kohl Confirms Details of Transfusions While Armstrong Denies
In contrast, despite the discovery of his blood in the freezer of notorious Dr. Eufemiano Fuentes, 2006 Giro d'Italia winner Ivan Basso had the audacity to claim that his only crime was "attempted doping." With unflappable Italian style and panache, Basso explained that even though he had planned to blood dope for the 2006 Tour de France, he had actually never taken banned drugs or used blood transfusions.
"I did admit having attempted to use doping for the (2006) Tour de France and I am ready to pay the penalty for that," Basso said. "All my wins have been achieved in a proper and clean manner and I have every intention of returning to action and continuing with the job I love once I have paid the penalty."
Thus, the rider whose blood was identified by the moniker Birillo - the name of Basso's family dog - served an abbreviated two-year ban after refusing to admit to having done anything worse than think about doping. He returned to the lucrative top-tier of professional cycling in late-2008 and earlier this year won his second Giro d'Italia.
Bernhard Kohl, meanwhile, is the owner of a bike shop in Austria.
While Basso is again being paid hundreds of thousands of euros to ride his bike over the mountains of Europe, all the while publishing on the internet the results of numerous blood tests in an effort to convince the public (and authorities?) that he is clean, it is Bernhard Kohl who gets on with the hard work of fighting against the very same doping that - depending on your perspective - either destroyed, or fueled, his career.
Even after earning a lifetime ban from cycling for his troubles.
Lance Armstrong is waging a desperate rear-guard action to deflect scrutiny from his own possible doping back onto his accuser Floyd Landis (another Tour cheat), claiming that his compatriot's tales of a frighteningly-brazen team-wide doping program at US Postal can't be taken seriously because of Landis's history of lying about his own doping. Lost in the din is the voice of Bernhard Kohl, quietly confirming the protocol Landis detailed for conducting illegal blood transfusions during the Tour de France.
"That was exactly the way I also did it," Kohl told the Wall Street Journal, referring to Landis' description of how the transfusions were carried out by the team. "The details of the blood bags and the checking for cameras and microphones, the cutting up of the bags and flushing them in the toilet…it all took place in exactly that way."

I believe Floyd and Kohl, there is a price to be paid for the truth. But, if this is the case, why is it taking so long to bring charges toward Armstrong? From what I've read, these drugs are being produced by pharmaceutical companies in China. Unregulated and untested, they can contain levels of mercury, lead and other dangerous chemicals. If that's true, what diseases do mercury & lead have links to? So I'm left puzzled at why Armstrong is left untouched and twittering.ReplyDelete

Until recently I only had the gear to hang 2 of my 4 hammocks at a time. Since then I have acquired a 5lb bag of random webbing. There is a bunch of 1.5in stuff in there which I am hoping to use. The question is how to attach strap A to hammock B. Hammock B is a tank. It's a short double layer upholstery fabric beast. It has issues with shoulder squeeze so I'm planning on doing some form of spreader bar mod. With that I may end up with two amsteel eyes on each end. My first though was to maybe use an elephant hook or Dutch buckle, but those are designed for 1 in webbing. SMC rings have crossed my mind, but they are only 1.5 in ID so I'm wondering if they'd be too small as well.
So, I'm looking for something that is 1) cheap 2) easy to set up/ adjust. Weight really isn't an issue as the hammock must already weigh 10 lb. It will be used to go out and hang in the yard for an hour or two. Anyone have ideas?

* ReCycle Craft: Cardboard Box Puppet Theatre
"C" and I made this puppet theatre out of a box
recently. The perfect place to act out little plays
with our finger puppets!
Here's our basic set up, just a simple hole I cut in the box lid
for the stage opening.
It would be less floppy if I glued the boxes together in this "L" shape
but we kept it separate so it's easier to clean up and put away.
For the rainbow design, we just glued little
scrapbook paper squares
around the edges of the box.
For the curtain, I just strung some yarn between two buttons
(small holes poked in the side of the box with an x-acto knife)
The curtain is just some fabric with a simple pocket sewn for the yarn to run through.
To add some pizzazz to the theatre,
I made this little dry-erase board topper
so she can write the title of the play.
It's just a scrap of white cardboard,
cut into a semi-circle with
clear contact paper stuck to it,
glued to the front of the theatre (with glue gun)
We can use dry-erase markers to write
the name of the play on top.
Then it just wipes off when we're done!
A good way to practice our letters.
Time for the Ballerina show!
Time for The Three Little Pigs!
Remember these toilet paper tube finger puppets we made?
I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down!
The top can lay back down in the bottom of the box
so we can slide it on a bookshelf when it's time to clean up.
View from Backstage.
Then we were on to the
Three Little Kittens Who Lost their Mittens!
Happy Playing!

Luis Pato, Bairrada, vinho tinto, 1998
From a local shop purchase this past weekend. Not sure if this has seen better days or not, but it's probably drinking at peak right now. Texturally similar to an old-styled Rioja or nebbiolo, there is not a lot of fruit with this weaving prune and sour cherry mash with the stinky-cheese aromas and salt-encrusted leather saddle notes. There is high-toned florality, flirting so close with outright volatility (ala Musar) but never completely going that route all out. Whopping TONS of sediment. This must have been stored upside-down, because I've never seen a neck black from sediment paste before. 13% I'm thinking it's showing all it has right now. Decant and drink up. B+

Similar note on palate, cassis liqueur, graphite and smoke, short on structure and blurry taste. Short finish. Seems lacking a clear identity. Finally opened after 1.5 hour in the decanter, mineral nose with spice, currants. Softer tannin, still dry though.

Placing organisational awareness personal insight over knowledge transfer, our inspirational ground-breaking person-centred approach to learning has earned us a global reputation for impact by using experiential and innovative learning techniques.
Our distinctive approach to leadership development is carefully designed to complement other programmes in our portfolio. We build upon general management or specialist skills, elevating individuals or groups of individuals to their next level of development. Building on the knowledge and experience they have already acquired. This could be the final 'polish' ahead of, or just after, a promotion. Or it could be elevating a particular aspect of leading themselves or others.
