For a man whose name alone in Scotland is enough to inflame passion, be it furious or joyous, Neil Lennon chooses serenity when the heat of battle has subsided. This is how it was around 10pm last Wednesday, in Glasgow, when the assembled Scottish and Spanish media corps pressed in on him, eager to hear his thoughts on what had just unfolded before them all. Lennon's Celtic team, with an average age of 24 and a collective price tag of £6.5m, had inflicted defeat on Barcelona, the best team in the world and assembled at a cost of £125m. The Catalans' squad is studded with World Cup and Champions League winners, yet they were undone on the night by a Lanarkshire 18 year old who had been playing for Airdrie against teams such as East Fife and Stenhousemuir barely two years previously, before Celtic paid £50,000 for him.
Lennon was entitled to be ecstatic, triumphant even, at having steered his young charges to arguably the greatest victory witnessed at Celtic Park. Instead, the journalists encountered a reflective man, proportionate in his admiration for the way his team had played and measured in his thoughts about what the future may hold for them.
"My players are all heroes to me and I can't speak too highly of their performance," he said. "You can talk about tactics until you are blue in the face, but football is about the players. They covered themselves in glory tonight. We can give instructions to them, but it's down to the players to go and do it."
Lennon is entitled to some peace and tranquillity after 12 years of sheer tumult and brimstone. In 2002 the garlanded Ayrshire-born classical music composer, James MacMillan, penned a solo piano piece in tribute to him, called For Neil. The musician's dedication hints at the tempest that has swirled around Lennon. "I felt moved to write this little gift piece for him because of the pressures that have been put upon him, as a Celtic player, from Northern Ireland, and to remind him that he is greatly revered by many, in spite of the sectarian abuse he receives from other quarters. It is reflective and intimate, with the lilt and accent of an Irish folk song."
"The pressures that have been put upon him" began almost as soon as Lennon joined Celtic from Leicester City in 2000. From the outset, his debut at Dens Park in Dundee, he was routinely singled out for abuse at almost every ground he visited with Celtic, and most especially at Ibrox and Tynecastle, the homes of Rangers and Hearts. Part of this was due to his belligerence as Celtic's midfield enforcer in the team that Martin O'Neill, his old Filbert Street mentor, guided to the Uefa Cup final three years later. But for many, the sight and sound of a stocky, mouthy, red-haired Catholic Ulsterman playing for Celtic was simply too much to bear and enkindled some of the sectarian fires that glow just beneath the surface of civic and cultural life in the west of Scotland.
He was forced to quit international football after threats that were manifest in graffiti painted on the street where he lived in Glasgow and in his home town of Lurgan. "I had played nearly 40 times for Northern Ireland before I came to Glasgow and had no problems," he said in 2010. "But that all changed after I joined Celtic."
He has been physically attacked and abused in the street, and a handful of Rangers fans have been imprisoned as a result. This year, two men were jailed for attempting to send an explosive device to Lennon through the post.
Until recently, though, he has been regularly caricatured in the Scottish press as an immature hothead and a loose cannon who was somehow partly responsible for the vicissitudes he has encountered. One former Scotland international, writing in a Sunday newspaper, even suggested Lennon had brought the death threats upon himself because of his edgy demeanour.
As they flock to praise him now they adopt a supercilious tone in the manner of a headmaster handing over the best-pupil prize to a classroom miscreant who has changed his ways. The patronising tone has not gone unnoticed by Celtic's chief executive, Peter Lawwell, and it irks him. "What people are seeing now is the real Neil Lennon, a man who is highly intelligent, articulate and gifted. We have always known this, though, ever since he started working with us as a player, then captain and now manager.
"Yes, he has changed in the three years he has been manager, but only in the way most people change, including me, three years into any job. There were a few occasions when Neil reacted in a way that he later regretted, but Alex Ferguson, Arsène Wenger and José Mourinho have all reacted similarly in the heat of battle."
When Lawwell speaks about his manager there is barely concealed pride and affection for him. Much of this stems from his achievements as a player and now manager, but also from the way Lennon conducted himself in the face of "events that no other manager in world football has ever had to endure".
Nor will it have escaped the chief executive's notice that his young manager is building a solid reputation beyond Britain. He is now in his third full season as manager of Celtic and club insiders believe he is capable of taking them to heights unimagined since Jock Stein's Lisbon Lions reached two European Cup finals and two semi-finals in the 1960s and 70s.
In Lennon's first season as a Champions League manager Celtic stand poised to qualify for the last 16. Their titanic tactical struggles in the Barcelona double-header have captivated a new audience. Barcelona granted Celtic little more than 20% of possession over their two games, yet this was no frantic anywhere-will-do, rearguard action. Gary Neville, the former Manchester United defender, was impressed. "It wasn't desperate defending; it wasn't legs on the floor, flailing around and diving in. They were controlled, they stayed on their feet. They all did their jobs in a disciplined manner."
They played a bit, too. What also characterised both games against Barcelona was that Celtic had several players who could hurt their lauded opponents. That they did this so effectively was also due to the way Lennon deployed them. He played with two strikers, knowing that his team would have the chance to break and thus secure some dead-ball opportunities. He made them keep a relentlessly narrow shape in the knowledge that Barcelona are uncomfortable playing crosses from wide and that Celtic now have a some intelligent defenders playing together at the same time.
Those who think that Lennon's imminent departure to the Premier League is inevitable may be unable to grasp the strength of the relationships Lennon has forged at Celtic. Last Tuesday, the eve of the Barcelona fixture, 1,000 worshippers crowded into St Mary's church in Glasgow's east end for a mass and celebration to mark the 125th anniversary of Celtic. The club's board and management were joined by seven Barcelona directors who were surprised to learn their slogan, Més que un club, had been coined by a Celtic chairman years earlier in a documentary made to mark their annus mirabilis of 1967, when they became the first British team to win the European Cup.
Earlier that day, as if to underline their commitment to social responsibility, Celtic had announced a gift of £120,000 to four schools to enable pupils to play musical instruments after local authority cuts in musical provision. In the past two years, the club has established initiatives in India and Mexico, where poor communities will receive coaching, football kit and regular visits to Glasgow. The locations were chosen in the knowledge that there will be no commercial spin-off.
Those close to Lennon speak of his appreciation of Celtic's commitment to social justice and the way in which Lawwell and Dermot Desmond, the club's largest shareholder, stood shoulder to shoulder with him when it seemed one strand of Scottish society had unilaterally declared war on him.
He has had to deal with clinical depression and speaks regularly at events to help fellow sufferers. Lennon is also venerated by the Celtic supporters. Barcelona's players lined up to say that the Celtic fans' fervour was unlike anything they had previously encountered, and Lennon's bond with them is the strongest of any of the club's 17 managers.
Some also believe that there would be an incongruity in Lennon managing an English club that is the mere plaything of foreign plutocrats; where success can be bought rather than earned and where the desire for instant gratification has rendered the values of sacrifice and industry utterly redundant.
Lennon's entire career has been lived in the shadow of adversity; it is as if he is destined always to scale his heights by the north face in winter while others are granted a gentler route. He may be at Celtic for some time yet.

Flory and Wilson step up to lead CMU to bowl win
Redshirt freshman wide receiver Andrew Flory has been forced to step into the spotlight a couple of times this season.
First on Nov. 10 against Eastern Michigan when he caught nine passes for 118 yards and two touchdowns filling in for the injured sophomore receiver Titus Davis.
And then again in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl where he caught two more touchdowns in his three receptions for 105 yards while filling in for the void left by Davis and sophomore receiver Courtney Williams, who were suspended for the bowl game.
"We know he is very talented," head coach Dan Enos said. "We know he and Cody (Wilson) are going to be number one receivers on a lot of teams in our league."
Senior receiver Cody Wilson has been in the spotlight since his freshman season.
He and Flory combined for three touchdowns against Western Kentucky in the Little Caesars Pizza bowl leading Central Michigan to a 24-21 win.
It did not take long for him to get noticed by the WKU defense, catching two key passes on the Chippewas first drive.
The first was a short out route for seven yards that gave CMU a first down. Three plays later, senior quarterback Ryan Radcliff and Flory connected on a slant-and-go route for a 69-yard touchdown pass.
He proved to be a viable deep threat once again on the Chippewas next drive when Radcliff found him open in the end zone for a 29-yard score.
"It's not what you'd expect to do in the first quarter of a bowl game," Flory said. "But it happened and it was great for the team, and I was just happy I could help my teammates out."
Flory did not have any more receptions, but Enos said his early contributions helped open up the running game for junior running back Zurlon Tipton.
"I think it loosened (Tipton) up a little bit," Enos said. "Obviously, when you have a guy like Titus that isn't playing, the other team is probably thinking (the Chippewas) are going to lack big play potential, but then we ran our touchdown play and Andrew ran a great route.
"At that point, I think it opened up our running game and gave everybody confidence on our team that we were going to be balanced."
With CMU also without Williams, it relied on the experience of Wilson.
He delivered with ten catches, the last one giving CMU the 24-21 edge with 5:11 remaining in the game.
"(Wilson) never lets us down," Enos said. "Anything we ask him to do, he does. He got hot today and we kept calling his number, and we know this about Cody—if the ball is anywhere near him, we know he's going to catch it."
He also had four catches for first downs and finished with 101 receiving yards.

Not many people can say they've lost a lot of weight to get down to 339 pounds, but not many people have the build of former Alabama offensive tackle D.J. Fluker.
Fluker was among the first players to get weighed and measured as the Scouting Combine kicked off in Indianapolis today, and according to Daniel Jeremiah of NFL.com, Fluker weighed in at 339 pounds.
That sounds like a lot until you remember that just a month ago Fluker weighed in at 355 pounds at the Senior Bowl. Losing 16 pounds in a month isn't physically possible for a lot of people and probably isn't healthy even for most overweight people, but if NFL coaches and scouts were telling Fluker at the Senior Bowl that they'd like him to slim down, they have to be impressed that he took that advice to heart.
In addition to his weight, Fluker's arm length got him noticed at the Senior Bowl. NFL Network's Mike Mayock said this week that coaches will look at Fluker and think he has the body to develop into one of the top run-blocking tackles in football.
"Fluker has the longest arms in the draft or one of the longest pair of arms in the draft. He's huge. I'm anxious to see him in some of the drills. He wasn't able to participate in the Senior Bowl, but he's a solid, first round, right tackle to me," Mayock said.
At 355 or 339, Fluker looks like he's ready to step onto an NFL field and start right now.

As BBC America's "Copper" neared its first season finale last fall, star Tom Weston-Jones suggested that his character, Det. Kevin Corcoran, is capable of forgiving those who betrayed him. (Season 1 spoilers ahead!)
The first trailer for the show's second season suggests otherwise, as Corcoran stares down his former best friend and fellow detective, Francis Maguire (Kevin Ryan). Later, Maguire pulls a gun on a man who from the back appears to be Corky, as Corcoran is called by his fellow officers working New York City's notorious immigrant neighborhood of Five Points in 1865.
In the first season, Maguire helped Corky search for his missing wife, Ellen, and a killer. Turned out he was faking it, as he knew exactly where Corky's wife was--and he was the killer they were hunting. To cover up his affair with Ellen while Corky was away fighting in the Civil War, he murdered both her abortionist and his own fiance, Mary. As for Ellen, well, she confessed that she was responsible for the death of her and Corky's daughter, Maggie.
I asked Weston-Jones if he thought Corky could forgive his wife or Maguire.
"I do really think anything is possible within this world. I think he could forgive her," he said, mulling the idea. "Then again, we all know what Corcoran is like. ... If anything were to happen again, or if anything were to upset him again, I think he'd become a rabid dog.
"Then again, he can also forgive. It just all depends how the story unfolds."
When the 13-epsiode second season begins at 9 p.m. CT June 23, Corcoran is struggling to rebuild his life while those around him strive to find their place on the rough New York streets. He has someone knew to worry about, too, in the form of Donal Logue, who joins the cast as Brendan Donovan, a Civil War general who has returned to his station in Five Points. The political boss of the Sixth Ward, Donovan is reasserting himself as one of the most influential and powerful men in the city's political machine.
"New York is fueled on secrets and lies," Donovan tells Corky in the preview above. "Let's not let the body count get any higher."
Sounds like Corky might be using his brass knuckles again, which Weston-Jones really enjoyed playing with in Season 1.
"I love those things. I really do," he said, adding that he wanted to take them home to London when he finished shooting the season. "I wasn't allowed. Also, I couldn't get them back on the plane. There is no way they would let me take them back on the plane. It's such a shame."
No doubt they were waiting in the props department when he got back to the Toronto set in February.
The Season 2 video also teases a counterfeit cash ring, a possible bank robbery involving Maguire, and a lot of shooting in the streets. We get a quick peek at Alfre Woodard, who guest stars as Hattie Lemaster, a former slave who arrives to the Five Points to start a new life. "Chicago Fire" star Eamonn Walker, Lee Tergesen and Andrew Howard also guest star.
Returning cast members include Kyle Schmid, who plays Robert Morehouse, the unruly son of a Manhattan aristocrat who is reeling from the consequence of his father's deceit and disgrace. Anastasia Griffith is the sophisticated Elizabeth Haverford, now threatened by exposure and ruin as a result of her double life. Franka Potente portrays Eva Heissen, the shrewd businesswoman who presides over Eva's Paradise, a brothel at the center of Five Points. Ato Essandoh is back as Dr. Matthew Freeman, now considering an expansion of his practice that means a return to Five Points.
Also returning are Dylan Taylor as Det. Andrew O'Brien, Kiara Glasco as Annie Reilly and Tessa Thompson as Sara Freeman.

Caltrans completes new Cushenberry Bridge project
San Bernadino, CA – Caltrans has finished major construction on a $3 million bridge project on State Route 18 in San Bernardino County. The project was financed entirely by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act). "My Administration is working constantly to ensure recovery dollars are delivered into California quickly and responsibly to stimulate the economy and in this case, invest in the future of our transportation infrastructure right here in San Bernardino," said Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The project constructed a new 40-foot-wide bridge over Cushenberry Creek on SR-18 near the existing bridge, which was constructed during the Eisenhower era. The new bridge was built according to current seismic standards, making it more likely to withstand an earthquake. The highway is a popular route for residents of the high desert communities of Victorville, Hesperia, and Barstow travelling to and from the Big Bear mountain resort. Caltrans also constructed a new turning lane at the intersection of SR-18 and Camp Rock Road, giving motorists a safer and smoother transition from the highway to Camp Rock Road. "This project is a great example of how funding provided by the Recovery Act enabled us to build a new, seismically safe bridge that generations of motorists will use," said Caltrans Director Cindy McKim. Under Governor Schwarzenegger's leadership, California has obligated nearly $2.6 billion in Recovery Act funding to nearly 1,000 highway, local street, and job training transportation projects statewide.

Peter Post, grandson of etiquette maven Emily Post, finds Wabash College's Gentleman's Rule interesting. But he would suggest giving students a more specific definition of being a gentleman.
Post, director of the Emily Post Institute, spoke at a dinner for college sophomores then to a group of students, faculty, staff, and guests of about 100 in Salter Hall.
Hear Post explain his basic philosophy and see more photos by clicking here.
He called the Gentleman's Rule "interesting" but added he wasn't quite sure he understood it. After all, he questioned, what is a gentleman?
"A Gentleman should be considerate, respectful and honest in his interactions with others in his personal life as well as in his professional life," was the addendum the author and nationally-acclaimed expert offered up.
Post mixed his presentation with common-sense advice, wit, and more than a decade of family wisdom handed down from family matriarch, Emily Post.
He said proper etiquette really is quite simple. "Think before you act because we're likely not to make as many mistakes," he began. "Second, once you're done thinking make choices that will build relationships."
Post, who has written and contributed to several etiquette books bearing the family name, appears frequently on the national morning talk and news shows to discuss etiquette and manners.
He did offer some specific business advice appropriate for students that apply to anyone of any age. For work life: be on time, listen carefully, dress appropriately, avoid gossip and complaining, get your work done and be willing to take on other responsibilities and tasks.
Post really had his audience's attention, roaming up and down Salter's aisles, when talking about e-mail etiquette and the use of cell phones and similar devices. In regards to electronic communication his advice was simple: control it, don't let it control you. He also suggested such devices simply be turned off when you're situations where a ringing phone might seem the least bit inappropriate.
Before his formal presentation, he met with approximately 30 Wabash sophomores and took a lot of questions. He spent time talking about opening doors and handling job offers.
Post, who also has his own marketing and public relations firm, gave the students advice on writing. "I worked for a newspaper and was a reporter for one year," he recalled. "Learn to write so that others can read it."
He called that experience one of the best and most influential of his life.
Sophomore Blaine Cooper-Surma attended both events and walked away with one of Post's etiquette books. "I really learned a lot especially since I'm majoring in business," he said. "This helps fill in some of the gray areas I wasn't sure about."
Post appeared as part of the LEAD (Linking Education and Alumni Development) Program and through Career Services.

NEWTON, Mass – The Mount Ida College women's lacrosse team nipped the Falcons of Fitchburg State University on Thursday afternoon by a final of 15-14. Senior Molly Sheppard (Brookhaven, N.Y.) scored the game winning goal with ten seconds remaining after a sprinting Kaitlyn Affhauser (Chesire, Mass.) found Sheppard who buried home the winner.
Mount Ida improves to 4-8 (1-5 GNAC) while Fitchburg State drops to 2-5 (0-1 MASCAC).
Freshman midfielder Rebecca Beaulieu (Weare, N.H.) started things off for the Mustangs at 26:52 mark tallying her first goal of the day before teammates Samantha Basler (Plymouth, Mass.) and Affhauser notched their first tallies of the day giving Mount Ida the early 3-0 advantage. Beaulieu would add her second of the contest giving Mount Ida the 4-0 cushion.
Andrea Comeau (Watertown, Mass.) ended the Mustangs streak by cutting into the hosts lead on a free position goal and bringing her team within three before Basler responded for Mount Ida scoring on a free position goal of her own bringing the Falcon deficit back to four at 5-1. The Falcons started to chip away by scoring the game's next three goals off tallies from Kayla Panek (Belchertown, Mass.), Comeau, and Ali Laferriere (Tyngsboro, Mass.).
Holding onto a one goal advantage at 5-4 Beaulieu would continue her early game dominance and tally her third goal of the opening half increasing the lead to 6-4 in favor of Mount Ida. Comeau returned the favor for Fitchburg brining the Falcons back within one before Markie Apple (Pittsfield, Mass.) brought the visitors all the way back to tie things at 6-6 at the 9:59 mark.
Once again the Mustangs returned the favor on Sheppard's team leading 34th goal of the year before Basler recorded her 15th of the season and retaking the lead 8-6 on her second free position goal of the afternoon. With 6:22 remaining in the half, Fitchburg stood pat and once again tied the game off the sticks of Apple and Laferriere. With the score knotted 8-8 both teams would exchange goals over the final 2:30 minutes on markers by Beaulieu and Apple.
At the end of a back and forth first half battle the Mustangs and Falcons remained tied at 9-9.
The second half began and continued just as the first half did for the Mustangs and Falcons. Sheppard came out of the break scoring the first goal of the stanza while regaining the lead for the home team at 10-9. Both teams played excellent defense for the next seven plus minutes before Fitchburg scored two free position goals in a seven second span from Laferriere and Apple to take their first lead of the game at 11-10. It wasn't long before Mount Ida found their scoring ways to retake the lead at 13-11 off of three straight goals from Affhauser, Amanda Bowen (Randolph, Vt.) and Beaulieu's game high 5th goal of the contest.
With less than ten minutes remaining in the non-conference matchup and trailing by two goals, Fitchburg fired back at the Mustangs tying the game back up on a free position tally from Laferriere and an unassisted goal from Comeau. Seconds later, Bowen regained the lead once again for Mount Ida off an unassisted goal with 7:45 remaining.
As the second half neared its end, Apple got her team back in the contest by knotting the high scoring affair back up at 14-14. After a Laferriere draw control and ground ball, the Falcons held onto the ball and began working the clock for a potential last shot to win the game. However, a costly Falcon turnover in the Mount Ida defensive half of the field saw Mustang Kayla Bravo (East Providence, R.I.) pick up the ground ball and fire a pass to Affhauser up field who found Sheppard running alongside for the eventual game winning goal.
Junior Sammy Levitt saw the entirety of the game in net for the Mustangs making nine saves on 30 shots and earning the win. Falcon keeper Elizabeth Darrigo (Billerica, Mass.) took the loss while notching 11 saves on 33 shots.
Mount Ida held the 29-18 advantage in ground balls as the Mustangs saw Levitt and Basler each record five a piece on the afternoon. Apple led the way for Fitchburg with six ground balls.
The Mustangs will be back in action on Saturday afternoon when they host Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) conference foe Emmanuel College with a 1:00 start. Fitchburg State will also return to action on Saturday when they entertain Westfield State University.

Now if I were to tell you that this pineapple layer cake comes from a booklet of recipes to celebrate the coronation you would probably think I was talking about Queen Elizabeth II's coronation in 1953. And you'd be wrong! This recipe comes from a souvenir supplement presented with "Woman's World" magazine in January 1937 and it relates to the coronation of King George VI, who was the father of our current queen.
There are many fascinating recipes contained in this slim pamphlet and many have evocative names such as "empire cake", "Ladies in waiting", "Windsor cake", and "Princess Elizabeth cakes". It was tough to pick just one recipe but the pineapple cake interested me because there is no icing between the layers, just finely chopped pineapple and this struck me as rather tasty!
It's amazing to make a recipe and know that a housewife was making exactly the same cake over 70 years ago; I know it would have been a woman baking it as the foreword makes it quite clear: "there will be few wives and mothers who are not called upon to see to the preparations for a party".
I forgive them a bit when, further on, they add: "the first thing that take one's eye on entering a room with the table laid for a party tea are the plates of tempting-looking cakes and pastries." Here is a hard-working lady making her cake; the simple line drawing tells us so much about the age– her clothes and hairstyle, the equipment on her counter top...it may just be a pamphlet to some, but I see it as social history:
As with many older recipes there's little guidance as to oven temperature, cooking time or which size tins to use, so I've added this based on what I know from my baking. Also, to my eyes, the original quantities looked mean so I've gone for 1.5x the quantities and it is these that are listed below. The recipe also measures liquid in cups; I'm pretty certain they don't mean the US cup measurements but rather teacups. Luckily, I have a teacup so used that and then poured it into a measuring jug to find out the quantities which I have listed in the recipe below.
The finely chopped pineapple filling was a revelation – when you eat the cake it tastes like pineapple jam but without any of the effort of making jam! The one thing I would say is that next time I would use twice as much pineapple filling. It added a fresh zinginess to the rich sponge. I'm glad I used pineapple juice in the glace icing too as this added an extra dimension of flavour.
The icing was a glorious smooth dome – appreciated by those of us with a sweet tooth!
There is often a trade-off with sponge; if it's crumbly and light to eat it's a pain in the backside to cut neat slices! I would always rather the taste and texture was right – hence these rather crumbly, raggedy looking slices!
This photo of the cake on my fork shows the light, airy texture of the sponge:
For the cake and filling:
170g vegetable fat – I couldn't face this and used unsalted butter!
300g caster sugar
3 eggs, separated
340g self raising flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
100ml milk
50ml pineapple juice or syrup – I used juice and found I needed a little extra
Some pineapple rings or chunks – not hugely helpful! I used a small can with a drained weight of 260g (next time I would use double this amount)
For the icing:
340g icing sugar
Dash of vanilla extract
2-3 tablespoons water – I used pineapple juice
To decorate (optional) – pineapple rings or chunks
Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan oven 160°C/350°F/Gas mark 4.
Line the bases of two 20cm loose bottomed round sandwich tins.
Beat together the butter and sugar until thick and creamy and well combined.
Beat in the egg yolks.
Sift together the flour and baking powder then beat into the egg mixture.
Beat in the milk.
Beat in the pineapple juice or syrup – don't be afraid to add a dash more if the batter feels heavy.
In a separate bowl whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks, then fold into the batter.
Spoon into the prepared tins and level the surfaces.
Bake for 30-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cakes comes out clean. Mine took 40 minutes.
Place on a wire rack until the tins are cool enough to handle, then turn out of the tins and leave to cool completely.
Cut the pineapple as finely as possible, ideally so it's in shreds.
Place one of the sponges on a plate, flat side up and scatter the pineapple over the top.
Place the other sponge, flat side down, on the pineapple to sandwich.
Now make the icing: place the icing sugar in a bowl and add the vanilla.
Add enough pineapple juice or syrup to make a smooth, thick paste that will spread nicely over the sponge.
Pour the icing over the sponge and allow to set. Don't worry if it drizzles over the sides.
When the icing is set, decorate with some pineapple (optional)– don't do this too early of the pineapple might ooze into the icing and make a mess.
Bask in the glory of the wonderful thing you have made.

How to Have a High-tech Holiday Without the High Price
(BPT) – Have a holly, jolly, high-tech holiday – and in case you didn't hear – it doesn't have to cost you an arm and a leg. Some of the season's hottest tech gifts are more affordable than ever this year.
Spending on consumer electronics this holiday season is expected to grow 2.6 percent, according to the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), with three quarters of American gifters planning to purchase tech gadgets.
Big screen TVs continue to be on consumers' top wish-lists. In fact, a nationwide survey conducted for LG Electronics USA found that about six in 10 (58 percent) said they are likely to consider giving a TV as a gift.
Surprisingly, more than half of respondents (52 percent) said they'd prefer to receive an 84-inch 4K Ultra HD Smart TV (roughly $17,000) over an expensive piece of jewelry or watch (23 percent). More consumers also said they'd like to receive a $2,300 Internet connected "smart" TV than a European vacation.
For more budget-minded Santas, here are five tech gift ideas with big appeal and big value. Just imagine how your teen, college student, parent or best friend will react when they open up one of these:
1. Dual docking speaker
For the music lover in your life, few things beat a great speaker system. A Dual Docking Speaker system allows anyone to get the most out of a music collection with impressive style, design and functionality. A Dual Docking speaker like LG's ND5630 is compatible with iPod, iPhone and Android and also boasts built-in Wi-Fi, so it's simple to stream music via Airplay or Bluetooth. You can even charge one device while playing another. At a suggested price of $249, you get a lot of holiday bang for your buck.
2. Ultra-wide monitor
Gamers and geeks alike will light up when they open a modern ultra-wide monitor that brings cyberspace to life. With a 21:9 aspect ratio screen (2560-by-1080p- resolution), these new monitors produce a theater-like experience when playing games or watching your favorite movies. The dual link-up feature allows the monitor to display two source devices at once. For example, any combination of two devices, such as computers, cameras, smartphones or Blu-ray players can be connected to the monitor and displayed on a single screen simultaneously. One of the most popular ultra-wide monitors, the LN450W from LG is both PC and Mac compatible, has a built-in tuner so it can be used as a TV and you can get it for $649 or less at some online retailers.
3. Earbuds
Is one of your loved ones still rocking the factory earbuds that originally came with his smartphone or MP3 player? It's time to gift them a better listening experience. Earbuds and headphones will be the most popular consumer electronics devices given his holiday season, CEA says. Earbuds – tiny in-ear headphones – are convenient for listening to music or other audio in private, but just because they are small doesn't mean they shouldn't produce quality sound. Starting at about $50 you can give high-end earbuds with noticeably better sound capabilities. This is one gift that is sure to be used over and over again.
4. Smart/3D Blu-ray disc player
Know someone who loves movies? Some Smart Blu-ray Disc players can play DVDs, and 2D or 3D Blu-ray discs. They can also stream content like movies from Netflix or Hulu Plus or videos from YouTube – especially great if that special person on your shopping list isn't ready to upgrade to a smart TV yet. You can get one from LG (BP530) as little as $100 at some online retailers.
5. Tablets and accessories
Some tablets come with outrageous price tags, but every month new models become available, many of which are surprisingly affordable. CEA says tablets are at the top of adult's wish lists this holiday season. You can find options for $200 or less that include a quality processor, impressive battery life and considerable data storage. Compare to save and don't be afraid to shop the sales. Does your special someone already have a beloved tablet? You can't go wrong by gifting accessories like attachable keyboards and decorative protective covers.
This holiday you don't have to choose between giving high tech gifts and saving money. You can have both and impress your loved ones with the best tech gifts of 2013.

Redneck, toolish, uneducated, obnoxious Alabama football fan who has no connection to the University of Alabama, save that he/she lives within the border of the State of Alabama. Bammers tend to live in clusters and erect small shrines to Bear Bryant in their living quarters. Bammers liberally use the term "we" when describing the exploits of the University of Alabama footbal team.
Now that the University of Alabama's football program has won a few games, the Bammers grow more insufferable by the day.

by nichole December 29, 2004
A term used in the Southeast U.S. to describe arrogant, redneck fans of the University of Alabama football program. Most bammers have never set foot on the school's campus, much less taken a class or graduated from there, and don't care about any sport other than football. A bammer usually can't tell you anything about the University of Alabama unless it is football related. More intelligent bammers may know that the school is in Tuscaloosa, but don't count on it. Despite having absolutely no affiliation with the school besides liking their football team, bammers use the word "we" when talking about Bama football. They will also pick a fight over "their" school, especially if you talk smack about Bear Bryant. Bammers have a deep-seated hatred for Auburn football, often referring to anyone affiliated with Auburn as a "barner," and are very sore losers. You are most likely to find bammers in trailer parks, and in line to collect either unemployment or welfare.
No, he didn't even graduate high school. He's just a bammer.

On Monday, Lisa Dusseault ; gave an overview of "Recent evolution in RESTful Web Protocol design". Then Lisa also did an intro or "why" for the OAuth BOF.
Next was IDNAbis, and as important as this is, and as well attended as the meeting was (like 100 people, of whom 10 spoke) the meeting time was the canonical draft-status-draft-status-draft-status form.
Tuesday started with IDNAbis, and John Klensin presented the ASIWG proposal for digits. Should there be any rule regarding the presence of digits of these three types, "latin" (U+0030..U+0039), "arabic-indic" (U+0660..U+0669) and "eastern arabic indic" (U+06F0..U+06F9) within a label?
Then, there was a IPv6Ops discussion and after the DNSEXT meeting. Every hack post-Kaminsky was discussed and discarded.
Wednesday there was DNSOP, and the Mozilla registry came up again. There is a cookie spec and all this is actutally related to registries and new gTLDs (well, actually, delegation points). See the "public suffix list" thread.

Why the Fiscal Cliff Is So Important
11/12/2012 10:30 am EST
Focus: MARKETS
The fiscal cliff has the potential to drag down the US economy at the precise time the rest of the world is relying on it to keep global growth going, says Andrew Busch.
We're at the World MoneyShow in Chicago and I'm talking with Andrew Busch about the fiscal cliff. Now we hear a lot about the fiscal cliff. But I'm not quite sure: A) people really know what it is; and B) what the implications are for it.
Well, the fiscal cliff is a series of tax changes that are coming to the US economy. It depends on how you calculate it, but the way that we look at it, it's about $1 trillion that will be moved from people to the government if it all hits at the same time.
This runs from the Bush tax cuts rolling off to fixing AMT—alternative minimum tax—to all sorts of things that kind of add up to about $1 trillion. And if you look at it, it's about 4% of GDP...so if you're looking at GDP, if GDP was running at 2.5%, you'd lose about 1% off of that so you're at 1.5%.
That's significant because Christine Lagarde, the head of the IMF, said this is the biggest risk for 2013. In other words, if the US economy slows down by 4% to 5%, then the rest of the world essentially catches the cold. It's really disconcerting for them as far as growth prospects going forward. So that's why there's a lot of focus on it, and I think that's why we'll get some action by Congress before the end of the year.
Yeah, we're the strongest engine in this weak economy at this point in the global economy.
Yeah, we really are. And that really stands out when you look at growth rates in Europe, when you look at China slowing down significantly. The US still is the best place, and we've got some good things going on here. The housing market looks like it's stabilized.
We've seen the economy improve—not great, but it's not falling off a cliff. That's a good thing, too. Finally, we do have a central bank that's easing and will continue to ease unlimited until they comfortable with growth going forward. So those are three positive things that are happening.
So on the political side of this, what are the hot button issues? Who is really...I mean is the Tea Party involved in any of the issues that are on the table here? Are there splinter groups that are making this more difficult to get through, or...?
You've got to remember, the Tea Party got involved because the American people were very upset with the fiscal deficits that were expanding and blowing out. We're talking about over $1 trillion a year for the last four years in a row. You can blame some of that on the Bush administration, you can blame the rest of it on the Obama administration.
The thing is with the Tea Party, they rightfully came to the fore because they wanted to change that dynamic. So yes, they're involved with this process, and yes, it comes in the House of Representatives.
But I think overall, they're pointing us in the right direction. We cannot sustain these debt levels. We cannot sustain these deficit levels. So the Tea Party, they do take an extreme position to the extent that they don't want to have any taxes go up. But I think they pulled the conversation of where it needs to go.
Right, and it's kind of what we're seeing happen in Europe at this point, where they had a social network in place and they had their social democracy but they couldn't afford it when things got tight, and now they're trying to dig themselves out of it.
Right, and I think that's a great point. Forever, we've heard Europe has this different social contract with their population and it's great. You want to spend that amount of money, fantastic. But you can't do it and accumulate a lot of debt, because it's unsustainable.
So at some point, you have to have the conversation that Canada had in about the 1990s, when they said, "What can we do for our people and what can we afford?" And Canada's really been the shining star as far as balancing that out. They don't have it perfect, but they really are a great example not only for the fiscal situation, but also in their banking system as well.
So those are all good things to keep in mind when we're looking at the United States.

FAYETTEVILLE —Arkansas forward Marshawn Powell suffered through his most frustrating day as a Razorback a few weeks ago.
Powell was held scoreless in Arkansas' Southeastern Conference opener at Texas A&M on Jan. 9. He managed two rebounds too, as foul trouble limited one of coach Mike Anderson's most important players to 12 minutes in an 18-point loss.
So Powell vowed to use the disappointment as motivation as Arkansas prepared for the rest of SEC play. It's obvious the junior has made good on that promise so far.
Powell is averaging 20.0 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2.4 blocks and 2.2 steals in Arkansas' five games since, serving as the bright spot for a team struggling with inconsistency. While Anderson is urging others Powell must have help, it's clear he serves as the focal point for the Razorbacks as they take another stab at solving their road woes against Alabama (12-7, 4-2) in Coleman Coliseum tonight.
"I just think it's been a progression with Marshawn," Anderson said of his surge. "Just from the way he's playing. The way he's walking. The way he's talking. Even when he talks to our guys, I mean, I think he's having confidence in what he's doing.
"Not only that, I think he's feeling like, 'Hey, I'm the most experienced guy here and these guys will follow.' So I just like his body language at this point in time."
Powell, who was named a team captain earlier this month, leads Arkansas in nearly every major statistical category in SEC play despite his rough start at Texas A&M.
He tops the team in scoring (16.7 points), rebounds (6.3), field goal percentage (55.6), 3-point field goal percentage (46.2) and blocked shots (2.0) in conference games. Powell also ranks second in steals (1.8), behind guard Mardracus Wade (2.0).
Powell has posted two double-doubles in the past five games. He recorded an SEC-best 28-points against Auburn, a career-high tying 13 rebounds at South Carolina, and a career-best six steals against Vanderbilt.
It's an impressive stretch for Powell, who has shown he is no longer feeling any issues from last season's knee injury. His ability to score in a variety of ways has left the biggest impression on opponents as they prepare for the Razorbacks.
"That's the type of skilled forward that I'd like to have on my team," said Mississippi State coach Rick Ray, who watched Powell score 17 points in 19 minutes against his team. "I just think he's a really good player and he played well against us."
South Carolina coach Frank Martin called Powell a "first-team all-league player" who has become a difficult matchup for other SEC big men because of his ability to score.
Martin also said Powell's demeanor on the court is impressive.
"When he makes a basket, he doesn't run around punching his chest and doing all that stuff," Martin said. "He just plays. He's done a great job understanding how to play within Mike's system and they're doing a good job with him."
But Powell's recent success comes with a caveat.
He's the only person playing at a high level for the Razorbacks, who will begin a difficult stretch of three games in six days against the Crimson Tide tonight.
Powell was the only player to score in double figures at South Carolina. The next closest was Rickey Scott (9 points). His 13 rebounds accounted for half of Arkansas' team total (26), which was a big reason the Hogs were outrebounded by 16.
Powell was 9-for-14 from the field (64.3 percent) in the loss, while the rest of the Razorbacks were 12-for-47 (25.5 percent). He made his only 3-point attempt. But the rest of the team went 1-for-15 from long range in the 21-point loss.
"Right now, you look at our team, Marshawn Powell has probably been like a one-man wrecking force for the most part," Anderson said. "We have got to get other guys involved. …
"It's really important for our other guys to kind of piggy back and really get in there and really help him from that standpoint. He can't do it by himself."
Powell's performance since the Texas A&M loss has been the big reason Arkansas remains in the middle of the SEC standings through six games.
So if others follow his lead, Anderson believes the Razorbacks can make up ground quickly because of Powell's contributions on both ends of the floor.
"When Marshawn touches the ball good things have taken place for our basketball team," Anderson said. "He's playing at a high level right now. It's important we know he's a guy that has been a tough matchup for people. And I think he'll recognize when people are doubling him and he'll create for others as well."

Woman Gets 3 Years In Prison For Abducting Baby
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - A Minneapolis woman has been sentenced to three years in prison for abducting a friend's baby.
Thirty-year-old Isabel Diaz-Castillo was sentenced Monday after earlier pleading guilty to one count of kidnapping. The abduction of the 8-month-old boy last February prompted an Amber Alert. Prosecutors say Diaz-Castillo befriended the baby's mother about a month before the child was taken from his Minneapolis apartment.
Authorities found Diaz-Castillo with the baby in her arms in the basement of her apartment.
The defendant will get credit for 181 days she's been behind bars. After she finishes her sentence, she must register as a predatory offender or face deportation.

Panthers' volleyball hoping talent trumps experience
STANDISH – Young, but talented.
That's how Standish-Sterling Central varsity volleyball coach Becky Murphy described her team heading into the new season.
"We're a very young team and we're kind of rebuilding," she said. "We're very talented, skill wise, across the board, and we're strong at the net if our hitters come through for us."
Murphy coached the junior varsity team last season, but served as the varsity coach a few years ago and returns to that position.
The Panthers lost four key players to graduation from last year's team in Ellen Walderzak, Tara Hartley, Cassie Rhoehm and Lauren Perrin, but she still had talent back, including seniors Christy Schott, Megan Heiser and Danielle Milan. Schott is expected to play right-side hitter and will serve the team as a secondary setter, Heiser is a back row specialist and main passer, and Milan will play libero or main passer.
Juniors Christina Proulx and Kierstin Sanch are also expected to play keys roles, Proulx at middle-hitter and Sanch at outside-hitter.
Murphy's roster consists of several other juniors, including Chelsea Szostak, Emily Meschke, Kelsey Prohaska, Jessica Feiner, Katie Ouillette, and Karina Pierce.
Brooke Bartlett, a sophomore, is expected to see plenty of action at setter.
The Panthers opened the season Saturday, Aug. 22 at the Remus Chippewa Hills Invitational where they went 0-3 in pool play before defeating Hart in the loser's bracket semifinals, 25-16, 25-16. The Panthers finished the day with a loss to host Chippewa Hills in the loser's bracket final, winning the first game but losing the next two.

All Halo Wars leaderboard data - and by this, "all" means "everything" - disappeared from Xbox Live today, says Major Nelson, meaning braggin' rights have been reset to launch day status.
"Human error" is blamed. It covers singleplayer. It covers multiplayer. It covers Trueskill leaderboards. It covers all matchmaking data. Gone. Says the Major:
This was human error related to Xbox LIVE servers. It is not a broader service issue and will not impact other titles or Xbox LIVE experiences. The Xbox LIVE team is investigating the cause to prevent this from occurring in the future.
Larry goes on to apologize, on behalf of Xbox Live ...
"for the incident and any frustration Halo Wars players have experienced in having their statistics disappear from the Leaderboards. You can rest assured that we're putting processes in place to prevent this from happening in the future.

Pumpkin Banana Oat Muffins
I set out to try and find a clean way to enjoy pumpkin, and found inspiration from Katie at Good Things Catered. She took a pumpkin banana oat muffin recipe from recipeZaar.com and made some substitutions to make it a little more nutritious. Still, her recipe packed plenty of sugar and white flour, and that wasn't going to work for me. I switched out the white flour, whole eggs and sugar with some cleaner ingredients and the results were fabulous! This was my first time working with sucanat as a sweetener, and although I was hesitant to try it - it's great! The molasses flavor is fantastic and really adds to the complexity of the flavors in the muffin. I omitted the nuts this time around because I wasn't sure where I would be with the calorie count, but might throw them in next time now that I know the base recipe is only 100 calories per muffin!

After defeating Baldwin School in the opening round of the Pa. Independent Schools lacrosse tournament, Springside Chestnut Hill Academy ended its season with a quarterfinal loss on the road last Monday. The seventh-seeded Blue Devils succumbed to number two Friends Central, 15-8, ending their season with an overall record of 10-12.
Elsewhere in the Indy tourney quarterfinal round, the three other remaining teams from this side of the Schuylkill also fell to Main Line opponents on the same afternoon. The three seed, Germantown Friends, was tripped up by number six Agnes Irwin (15-11), fifth-seeded Germantown Academy was edged out by fourth-ranked Academy of Notre Dame (12-11), and number nine Penn Charter lost to the top seed, Inter-Ac League champion Episcopal Academy (16-9).
Episcopal emerged as the Pa. Independent Schools champ, as well, knocking off the Friends Central Phoenix, 19-11, in the finals on Thursday. The Phoenix, who had defeated GFS in the Friends Schools League finals back on May 17, ended their season with a mark of 19-3.
In last week's quarterfinal at FC, the hosts got a handle on the opening draw, but Springside Chestnut Hill was first on the scoreboard, as sophomore Sinéad Brierley made a successful drive through the left side of the arc. Friends Central's Emily Tedesco answered with 4:07 elapsed in the game, and the home team tacked on two more goals over the next three minutes.
After a player from each team hit a goalpost with a shot, FC added the next actual goal to make it 4-1 with a dozen minutes left in the first half. Sophomore Francesca Fabiani fired one for SCH for a 4-2 tally, and sometime later, with under five minutes to go in the period, the Phoenix still led by two, 7-5.
The game started to get away from the Blue Devils in the closing minutes of the first half. Sophomore Sophie MacFarlane scored Friends Central's eighth goal off a feed from junior Emma Dahle with two-and-a-half minutes left. At the other end the talented goalkeeper for the Phoenix, senior Aubrey Faggen, had already turned aside shots from three of SCH's strongest attackers, Fabiani, Duke-bound senior Kitty Morrissey, and freshman standout Mikaela Watson.
More damaging were the developments of the final minute. The Devils had possession and it appeared they would have the last shot of the half, but they committed a turnover with 36 seconds. FC's Dahle then scored with just nine ticks on the clock for a 9-5 halftime lead.
The figure held up for more than six minutes early in the second half, then the Phoenix put in a pair. Morrissey and freshman Natalie Schwartz responded for the visitors, but they never could get closer than four points, and in the end Friends Central pulled farther away by netting the last three goals of the afternoon. PC's Faggan and SCH freshman goalie Elsa Rall were each credited with eight saves.
SCH freshmen Watson and Schwartz finished with three and two goals, respectively, and the Blue Devils got single strikes from Brierley, Fabiani, and Morrissey. Almost half of the winners' scoring load was carried by the Tedesco sisters, Lafayette College signee Ashley (four goals) and sophomore Emily (three). MacFarlane also had a hat trick for the winners and Dahle scored twice. Rounding out the scoring with one goal apiece were juniors Kate Forrest and Bianca Newton, and freshman Jesse Rubin.
Springside Chestnut Hill finished the 2013 campaign a little under the .500 mark, but the Blue Devils' record included three overtime losses and a single-goal setback in regulation play.
"A lot of individual players improved and also we became better playing as a team," pointed out first-year head coach Allison Thomas. "We had a group of seniors who fought hard and led the team well, and we also had a lot of young players step up, too."
In addition to Morrissey, the graduating class included Shelby Jackson, Vanessa Pierce, Gianna Pownall, Maud Simms, Jackie Willitts, and Taylor Wrubel. Another senior, Jennie Lukoff, played early in the season, then left to take advantage of a special academic opportunity. Winter Chernak was the lone junior on the varsity roster this spring.
Sophomores Brierley and Fabiani were steady point producers, and five freshmen, Rall, Schwartz, Watson, Remi Fillipini, and Megan McCool were everyday players for the Blue Devils.
"A lot of our returning girls are going to be involved in club lacrosse over the summer," Thomas noted. "There are a few who need to work on conditioning and speed, and some others who need to focus a little on their stick skills."
Turning to the rising freshman class, the Devils' mentor said, "I've heard a lot about the eighth-graders who are coming up and it seems to be a good, solid class. The varsity girls are actually going to get together with them next week for sort of a clinic to help get them started thinking about being part of the upper school program next year."

Revision as of 16:05, 12 December 2011
Starling was a science fiction fanzine by Lesleigh Luttrell and Hank Luttrell.
Starling was first published in the 1960s in Missouri, U.S.A. The first two issues were published by Hank Luttrell with Tim Elkand. Luttrell edited a few issues by himself, and was then joined by Lesleigh Couch, who shortly after became Lesleigh Luttrell. The two moved to Madison, Wisconsin, U.S.A. where they continued publishing. Early issues of Starling were distributed through the Southern Fandom Press Alliance APA. It was published for more than a decade, with issue 3 appeared in 1964 and issue 37 in 1979. In 1975, Starling was nominated for a Hugo Award for Best Fanzine.
In sf critic Rob Latham's article "Fanzine Research", in the April 2008 issue of el,, he wrote of Starling, Susan Wood's Aspidistra, and ODD, by Raymond and Joyce Fisher with Richard Elsberry, that they were, "vehicles of antiestablishment attitudes virtually indistinguishable at times from the contemporary underground press." He cites these fanzines as examples of sf fans seeking "...to bring sf into dialogue with a larger universe of discourse and action—rather than, as elitist snobs sometimes suggest, looking to "escape" from the real world into aimless fantasy."
Contributions of writing were by Grant Canfield, Michael Carlson, Juanita Coulson (Yandro), Roger Cox, Andrew Darlington (Ludd's Mill), James Dorr, Barry Gillam, Richard Gordon, Steve Grant, Clay Hamlin, Terry Hughes (Science Fiction Five Yearly, Fuck The Tories), Dwain Kaiser, Leo Kelley, Gene Klein (a.k.a. Gene Simmons) (Faun), Banks Mebane, Tom Perry (Quark), Joe Sanders, A.M. Schneider, Angus Taylor, with his column called "Sgt. Pepper's Starship", Bob Tucker (Le Zombie), and Jim Turner.
Contributions of artwork were by John Berry, Sheryl Birkhead, Tom Foster, Alexis Gilliland, John Ingham, Jay Kinney, Denis Kitchen, Joe Pearson, Dan Steffan (Boonfark), and Reed Waller.
Letters came from Douglas Barbour, Leigh Bracket, Juanita Couson (Yandro), Ray Nelson and Susan Wood.
Lesleigh Couch Luttrell had previously co-published Quark with brother Chris Couch.

About an hour North of Salt Lake City, high above the town of Ogden lies a resort known for deep snow, steep lines, and some of the most insane ski lodges of all time. Snowbasin itself is a wild zone, one of the only places where lifts and trams allow access to terrain of a caliber usually only accessible by heavy climbing and deep backcountry excursions. On top of the terrain, three lodges complete with chef prepared food, chandeliers worth more than most houses, and award winning bathrooms (top 5 in the USA in 2011), allow riders to fully enjoy the apres scene, and maybe score some high end tail if the opportunity arises.
This past week, Snowbasin opened its doors with some solid terrain, including a handful of what marketing director, Jason Dyer likes to call "pocket parks". After a short ride up to the resort, our crew was guided by Terrain Park Manager Tim Eastley. We cruised and slashed through the rollers and parks offered up right now at Snow Basin.

The Little State that Could
It is not often that you find forest officers sitting face to face with mining officials to discuss environmental sustainability—especially in a state which is rich in both minerals and forest resources. Nor do you often see fishermen walking toe to toe with farmers in sweltering 48° C heat to be heard alongside tribal chiefs and industrialists. And it is not often that a state, dubbed as the disaster capital of India, and which lags behind on every conceivable development indicator, comes out on top by being the first to consult with its people on how to tackle the onslaught of climate change.
Well, this happened last week in India's coastal state of Orissa, one of the poorest states in the country. While the richer states - Maharashtra and Gujarat - were busy building fancy climate models to predict temperature and rainfall changes fifty years from now, Orissa focused on what it can do today.

Wildlife Warriors Terri, Bindi and Robert Irwin saw the results of their novel fundraising efforts put into action when they released a rehabilitated Green Sea Turtle off the Sunshine Coast yesterday, and will now monitor the turtle's activities via a satellite tracker.
Funds were raised to purchase Minka's tracker by auctioning off wildlife encounters with Terri, Bindi and Robert over a number of days in the Christmas school holiday period.
Australia Zoo's Rescue Unit rescued the turtle, a female named Minka, who was found with a crab pot rope wrapped around one of her flippers. Minka was assessed by vets at the Australia Zoo Wildlife Warriors - Australian Wildlife Hospital, and underwent surgery to amputate the affected flipper.
Prior to Minka's release she was fitted with a satellite tracker, which will enable Australia Zoo, researchers at the University of Queensland (UQ) and the Department of Environment and Resource Management (DERM) to track her journey and progress.
"This is the second turtle that will take part in this program, following Rafael the Loggerhead Turtle's successful release in June last year," said head of Australia Zoo Rescue Unit, Brian Coulter.
Valentine's Day Silent Auction
Marine life will again be the focus of an auction for a unique wildlife encounter with Terri, Bindi and Robert on Valentine's Day, when their time goes under the hammer to raise funds for Seal Alert-SA, a seal rehabilitation facility in South Africa.
The work undertaken by the privately-funded seal rehabilitation facility touched the hearts of Terri, Bindi and Robert while they were in South Africa in 2009, as they witnessed first-hand the threats faced by seals in this area, and played a part in helping to rescue a vulnerable baby seal. Only a few months old, the pup named Hope by Bindi, was orphaned and dehydrated when found by Bindi, Robert and Terri. Thanks to the care provided by Seal Alert-SA, Hope has made a full recovery, and has been released back into local waters.
With Seal Alert-SA being a privately run, self-funded rehabilitation facility, the money raised through the unique wildlife encounter with Terri, Bindi and Robert will go a long way to assist seals in the area. The unique animal encounter with Terri, Bindi and Robert will be auctioned through a silent auction on Valentine's Day, Sunday 14 February, with the encounter taking place later that day.
By visiting Australia Zoo on Valentine's Day you will also have the chance to win a romantic weekend away for two people through the Major Prize Draw, plus there will be romance in the air with free chocolates and roses.

Dan Henning is the Miami Dolphins offensive coordinator. Everything that offense does -- or fails to do -- is supposed to be Henning's responsibility.
Henning isn't shy about telling you his offense isn't producing at a level that is acceptable to everyone. Actually, how couldn't he deny it. But the veteran coach is clearly of the thinking that players and their execution are the only things that make an offense go or stall.
His responsibility in the entire recipe? Rarely if ever mentioned.
Take today's press conference for example. The Dolphins offense has sucked struggled the past couple of weeks and most of the season. What does Henning believe is wrong?
On what is the central issue of the running game's problems: "Blocking. That's the issue ... Second level blocking. Getting to the second level. Breaking tackles. Same as it always is."
On the passing game: "We haven't done very well here in the passing game lately ... There's a lot of moving parts in the passing game. Sometimes it's difficult to pin down what the major problem is or what the problems are and sometimes you might just run into a team that is playing pretty good or weather conditions and that type of thing. But we can't continue to exist with as little a passing game as we had last week. We have to do better than that."
Henning mentioned a Chad Henne gaffe in miscalling one protection during Sunday's game. He said the quarterback missed Fasano on a play when the tight end was open.
And then Henning broke down the whole picture for us, relating his thoughts on why the Dolphins are 31st in the NFL in points scored:
"We have to block better. We have to throw better. We have to run better routes. We have to catch the ball. We cannot have penalties. We have to move the ball in a more consistent, efficient manner than we have in the last three week -- not unlike we did in the Raiders game."
None of this is wrong. Henning is to be applauded for his relative candor. But I struggle with the fact that not once does the coach mention that, well, his coaching could perhaps have been better on an occasion or two or 10 this season.
It's like he is disconnected from the mess. It's as if he only calls plays and if the execution is 100 percent by those darn imperfect players, the plays he calls would work perfectly.
I'm trying not to be harsh or unfair. I've been told by a couple of folks that coach Tony Sparano is "disappointed" with me because I'm holding some of his assistants, such as Henning, responsible for some of the Dolphins struggles this year.
Well, maybe if some of those assistants would hold themselves responsible, I wouldn't have to say a word.
