Jimmy Dean, the sunny country music star who branched into acting before starting a sausage company that bore his name, died Sunday at age 81.
Dean, who recorded a No. 1 hit in 1961 with "Big Bad John," the ballad of a heroic miner killed in a collapse, died in his home on200-acre estate Virginia, according to his wife.
"He was amazing," Donna Meade Dean said of her late husband. "He had a lot of talents."
Dean had been sitting down to eat dinner in front of the television when his wife went into the other room, according to The Associated Press. When she returned, he was unresponsive and was later pronounced dead.
Dean, who played Fess Parker's pal Josh Clements in "Daniel Boone," was an accomplished music and TV star when he started the Jimmy Dean Meat Co. in 1969. He became the face of the company, recording commercials in which he guaranteed the quality of his company's sausage. Fifteen years later, he sold the company to Sarah Lee Corp. for an estimated $75 million, though he continued as the company's pitchman untiil 2003.
The sausage business was a natural for Dean, who was born Seth Ward on a hog farm in Plainview, Texas. He dropped out of high school after the ninth grade. After a stint in the Air Force, he became an entertainer. He hosted CBS' "The Morning Show" and in addition to "Big Bad John," recorded "PT-109," a song which honored President John F. Kennedy Jr.'s service in World War II.
Even after becoming a meat magnate, Dean kept a hand in acting, playing James Bond's ally Willard Whyte in 1971's "Diamonds are Forever."

Great Resources for Teaching
from the August 2010 YES! Education Connection Newsletter
Read the newsletter: Lessons to celebrate and protect clean, fresh water
From measuring your water footprint to understanding the breadth of the BP oil spill, here is a bounty of resources for your classroom of local and world citizens.
H2O Conserve
Water conservation is something that anyone can do. But it does take time and awareness. H2O Conserve offers tools and information to help your students make water conservation part of their everyday lives.
Water Footprint Calculator
A water footprint measures how much water someone uses for a specific duration of time. It includes water that is used directly (shower, cooking, drinking) and indirectly to produce consumer goods (plastic to produce).
The H2O Conserve Water Footprint Calculator will give you and your students an honest assessment of how much water you use. It will applaud what you're doing well (recycling saves water!) and flag where you might improve. Rather than wallow in the fact that Americans have the world's largest water footprints—reflective of our reliance on animal products—motivate your students to find out where they can begin making positive changes.
VISIT: Water Footprint Calculator
Water Saving Tips
After your students have measured their water footprints, review these water saving tips and choose some to adopt; for a start, select one that is relatively easy and another that is do-able, but requires some thought and effort. H2O Conserve categorizes suggestions by usage (kitchen, gardening, entertainment, etc.) and notes if they're free, low-cost or somewhat pricey. Explore the benefits of graywater systems, which recycles water used in the home i.e. shower, laundry, sink, and find out if graywater reuse is allowed in your community.

I've been futzing with Apache (on Linux) trying to run an SSL-only server as a front-end for secure access to my TivoWeb from the internet.
I've yet to find the magic Apache SSL httpd.conf settings, but if I try and run it as non-SSL it works just fine proxying to/from my Tivo box.
While looking in some newsgroups I stumbled across something that I may try instead of Apache: DeleGate, which claims to run on Unix, Windows and Mac. The newsgroup article had some details on how to use DeleGate for a task such as what I'm trying to do with my Tivo.

W.M. Ramsay
British archaeologist and New Testament scholar
William Mitchell Ramsay was born on the 15th of March 1851. He was educated at the universities of Aberdden, Oxford and Gottingen, and was a fellow of Exeter College, Oxford (1882; honorary fellow 1898), and Lincoln College (1885; honorary 1899). In 1885 he was elected professor of classical art at Oxford, and in the next year professor of humanity at Aberdeen. From 1880 onwards he traveled widely in Asia Minor and rapidly became the recognized authority on all matters relating to the districts associated with St Paul's missionary journeys and on Christianity in the early Roman Empire.
He received the honorary degrees of D.C.L. Oxford, LL.D. St Andrews and Glasgow, D.D. Edinburgh, and was knighted in 1906. He was elected a member of learned societies in Europe and America, and has been awarded medals by the Royal Geographical Society, the Royal Scottish Geographical Society and the University of Pennsylvania.
His numerous publications include: The Historical Geography of Asia Minor (1890); The Church in the Roman Empire (1893); The Cities and Bishoprics of Phrygia (2 vols., 1895, 1897); St Paul the Traveler and the Roman Citizen (1895; Germ. trans., 1898); Impressions of Turkey (1897); Was Christ born at Bethlehem? (1898); Historical Commentary on Galatians (1899); The Education of. Christ (1902); The Letters to the Seven Churches of Asia (1905); Pauline and other Studies in Early Christian History (1906); Studies in the History and Art of the Eastern Provinces of the Roman Empire (1906); The Cities of St Paul (1907); Lucan and Pauline Studies (1908); The Thousand and One Churches (with Miss Gertrude L. Bell, 1909); and articles in learned periodicals and the 9th, 10th and 11th editions of the Encyclopaedia Britannica. His wife, Lady Ramsay, granddaughter of Dr Andrew Marshall of Kirkintilloch, accompanied him in many of his journeys and is the author of Everyday Life Turkey (1897) and The Romance of Elisavet (1899) .
Works by W.M. Ramsay
In the Book of Revelation, we find John's letters to the seven churches of first century Asia Minor, written during the era of the Roman Empire. The seven churches correspond to the seven congregations found in these cities: Ephesus, City of Change; Smyrna, City of Life; Pergamum, City of Authority; Thyatira, City of Weakness Made Strong; Sardis, City of Death; Philadelphia, Missionary City; and Laodicea, City of Compromise. William Ramsay presents these letters to help readers better understand their content as well as the historical context surrounding their authorship. Letters to the Seven Churches of Asia is filled with facts regarding the general importance of letter writing in the Early Church, the mobility of letters during this time period, John's intentions in writing the Seven Letters, and the influence of religion in the development of first century cities. John's letters provide historical insight into Greco-Roman culture and geography. They also serve to guide Christians in their spiritual development. Ramsay's book brings John's letters into a useful contemporary light.
Ramsay wrote this book to tell the story of Paul's life as it was documented in the Book of Acts. Before Ramsay begins his study of Paul's life, he discusses the date, composition, and authorship of Acts. "The first and the essential quality of the great historian is truth," says Ramsay. Of the four types of historical writing, namely, romance, legend, second rate history, and first rate history, Ramsay classifies the Book of Acts as first rate historical writing. The characterization of Paul found in Acts contains such individualized detail that the author could not have gathered this information by any means other than personal acquaintances and original sources. As such, Ramsay believes that the author of Acts has attained a superior mark of historical accuracy and literary trustworthiness. St. Paul the Traveler and the Roman Citizen contains an excellent study of the Book of Acts as well as of Paul's life and travels in first century Asia, Greece, and Rome.
In 19th century schools of theology in Continental Europe, it had become fashionable to be skeptical about any traditional doctrine about the Bible. Many academic theologians denied the divinity of Christ, and others claimed that Paul's letters were forgeries. Ramsay, while he used some of the same critical methods as his academic peers, was nevertheless able to counter their arguments effectively. Having spent years in Asia Minor studying the missionary journeys of Paul and the Apostles, Ramsay had become an expert on the New Testament's historical documents. He argues that Luke, the author of the Acts of the Apostles and the Gospel of Luke, was as reliable an historian as any other in the first century. Thus in answer to the question, "Was Christ born in Bethlehem?" Ramsay answers: "Yes. We can trust Luke's Gospel."

What else lives in my pond besides fish?
James – Ida, MI
If you were scientifically inclined, you could spend a lot of time considering the complexities of a backyard pond. Despite their apparent simplicity, there's a lot more going on in your pond than you might suspect.
The water in most ponds is stratified into different layers. While this effect is more pronounced in ponds with depths of eight feet or greater, even a shallow pond will demonstrate some degree of layering. The layers are generally defined by differences in temperature. In summer, the stratification is at its most pronounced, with lower temperatures and dissolved oxygen levels at the lower layers. In fall, the levels tend to equalize. In winter, the layering reverses, with cold water on top and warmer water at the bottom. Spring mirrors fall, with temperatures equalizing again before summer turns the entire process on its head once again.
Because dissolved oxygen levels vary according to water temperature, different layers are more attractive to different organisms. Some plant life, including algae, thrives in warmer, more oxygen-rich waters. Fish prefer consistency, and will gravitate toward water that balances cool temperature and an adequate supply of oxygen. Different types of bacteria – both beneficial and otherwise – will choose their own level. And frogs, cold-blooded creatures that they are, seek out warmth all year 'round.
External conditions can significantly impact stratification. A heavy rain or an extended period of unseasonably cool weather, for example, can temporarily cool upper layers during summer months. This process can stress fish stocks.
Fortunately, aeration solutions like our Airmax® Aeration Systems go a long way toward reducing the impact of layering in a backyard pond. When water is aerated, temperatures and oxygen levels stay uniform – making the pond safe and healthy for fish, beneficial bacteria and friendly plant life.
While they're invisible to the eye, beneficial bacteria are a form of life every pond needs to stay clean, clear and healthy for fish and plants. With the regular use of Pond Logic® MuckAway™ Pond Muck Reducer and Pond Logic® PondClear™ Beneficial Bacteria, you'll enhance the natural decomposition process that eliminates pond debris and fallen leaves – and increase the healthy oxygen levels necessary to sustain fish and plants all season long.
Pond Talk: Have you noticed different layers of water (with varying temperatures) in your pond?

Feb. 4, 2009 -- Ethex Corp. has extended its voluntary generic drug recall to include prescription prenatal vitamins and iron supplements, the FDA today announced.
In addition, the generic-drug recall, which was previously only aimed at wholesalers, now specifically includes patients using the following Ethex drugs:
- Morphine Sulfate Extended-Release Tablets 15 mg, 30 mg & 60 mg (all strengths)
- Morphine Sulfate Immediate-Release Tablets 15 mg & 30 mg (all strengths)
- Dextroamphetamine Sulfate Tablets 5 mg & 10 mg (all strengths)
- Isosorbide Mononitrate Extended-Release Tablets 30 mg, 60 mg & 120 mg (all strengths)
- Propafenone HCl Tablets 150 mg, 225 mg & 300 mg (all strengths)

Nobody is known to have been injured by the products. The reason for the "precautionary" recall is that "the products may have been manufactured under conditions that did not sufficiently comply with current Good Manufacturing Practice."
But for the vitamins, supplements, and most of the generic drugs, the recall still applies only to wholesalers, not to consumers.
"Patients who may have these products in their possession should continue to take them in accordance with their prescriptions, as the risk of suddenly stopping needed medications may place patients at risk," the FDA says in a news release.
The news release also warns patients that they "should contact their physician or healthcare provider if they have experienced any problems that may be related to taking or using these products, or to obtain replacement medications or prescriptions."
The recalled prescription prenatal vitamin products are:
- Advanced NatalCare Tablets
- Advanced-RF NatalCare Tablets
- Cal-Nate Tablets
- CareNatal DHA Tablets
- ComBgen Tablets
- ComBiRxTablets
- NataCaps Capsules
- NatalCare Gloss Tablets

- Ultra NatalCare Tablets
The recalled prescription iron supplement products are:

Today's recall extends a long list of prescription generic drugs that Ethex recalled from wholesalers only on Jan. 28.
Ethex Corp. of St. Louis is a subsidiary of KV Pharmaceutical Co.

Thankfully though, one of the most suppressive voter identification laws to date will not be in effect this November.

Assume you have some notion of proof complexity: for instance, at the basic level, the length of a proof, or the number of symbols used, take your pick (there are more involved measures, but for sake of simplicity I will limit myself to the above).
Now, start from some ground arithmetical theory $T$, and say that $T\vdash_k \phi$ if there is a proof of $\phi$ from $T$ of complexity $\leq k$.
I call a sentence $\phi$ $k$-godelian iff it is $k$-undecidable (i.e. neither $T\vdash_k \phi$ nor $T\vdash_k \neg\phi$ , but provable in the standard sense in the theory $T$ (and so true in $N$, for those fortunate and seemingly numerous mortals who believe in such a creature).
$T$ is $k$-incomplete if there is such a $\phi$.
Now the two questions:
(first k-incompleteness) Which $T$s are k-incomplete for every $k$?
Are there theories that become eventually $k$-incomplete for a sufficiently large $k$ ?
(second k-incompleteness). Does any $k$-incomplete theory also satisfy the $k$-version of Godel 's second incompleteness? That is, is it true that $T$ is such that it $k$-proves its $k$-consistency only if it is $k$-inconsistent?

This "Big Monday" Not About Basketball
Updated: For those asking, LW Miller did win the weekend opening Whelen Modified race at Caraway Speedway. He was almost chased down by Teddy Christopher, the Northern Modified veteran. Miller was featured in a NASCAR Now interview with Nicole Manske last week, and the show deservedly received great reviews for keeping the regional NASCAR racers on the agenda for this season. Maybe on Monday night there will be some race results.
When ESPN employees talk about "Big Mondays," they are referring to the basketball double and now triple-headers that feature top college teams. Debuting in the 1980's, it was the first presentation of college hoops during the week on ESPN. It changed the way TV viewers watched sports.
This Monday, ESPN2 will host another edition of what is rapidly becoming "Big Monday" for NASCAR fans. Even without a Sprint Cup race being run, Allen Bestwick will host a one hour edition of NASCAR Now from the ESPN studios.
Each week, Bestwick has been matched with a panel of three veterans from the NASCAR on ESPN team. This week, he will be joined by NASCAR Now's Lead Reporter Marty Smith, analyst Andy Petree and Brad Daugherty.
Over the past several weeks, it has been reporter Mike Massaro who has provided the spark on this panel, and it should be interesting to see how Smith does in filling the journalistic role. Petree was on-hand to call the Nashville Nationwide race, and is having a very good year in terms of his comfort level on TV.
Daugherty continues to fill a very unique role. In some settings, like the NASCAR Now Monday shows, he can be entertaining and opinionated. Featured on the weekday shows alone, he is not given a role in which he can thrive and often speaks simply as a fan. On Cup weekends, he poses questions to the experts from a fan perspective. When Rusty Wallace, Dale Jarrett and Andy Petree are answering those questions, the results are bound to be interesting.
Ray Evernham is the newest member of the ESPN team, and his appearances on NASCAR Now have drawn both positive and negative comments. While he is off this week, it should be interesting to see if Evernham can continue to build his personal credibility back with some fans through his on-air exposure. His perspective as a team owner does bring good information to the show, but his off-track issues continue to linger.
Since the inception of this "roundtable" format, this show has drawn the attention of fans in exactly the way ESPN had planned. Memories of the disaster that was last season's Monday programs has been completely erased. NASCAR fans respond to commitment and that is what ESPN has delivered this season.
As the show continues to grow, look for additional reports from the field as well as a continuation of the slickly-edited weekend wrap features. ESPN has shifted their NASCAR resources to provide a wealth of talent and experience in support of this featured program.
Monday at 5:30PM Eastern Time, it should be interesting to see what topics the panel will discuss following a stand-alone Nationwide Series race weekend. Hopefully, this hour program will provide an opportunity to open the door on some pressing issues in NASCAR. One thing is for sure, lots of NASCAR fans are already getting ready for their own "Big Monday."

I am slightly tempted (slightly) to give Nascar Now another chance. Since last years fiasco I would rather watch lucy re-runs and Judge Judy during that time slot (which I do). I havent watched more than 5 minutes if the Inside (insert current sponser here) Cup replace ment t his year. Speed messed up badly on the format change, hope they realize it and fix it before the year is out instead of waiting like ESPN did with Nascar Now until the next year.

bill h... You really should check out the "Big Monday" NN. It certainly is better than Judge Judy!

I think I will tripp - but I will wait till next week after a cup race so that anything they discuss will be relevant with what I watched (and watch it be an episode where Rusty hosts).

I put this column together because it is going to be a solo night for NASCAR Now. With no TWIN, it should be interesting to see how they lay it out and what topics they choose to cover.

How can this possibly be a "Big Monday" when there was limited Nascar action this weekend?

Will SPEED even bother with TWIN next week considering they don't care about Cup this weekend?

Anon 10:02PM,
This is a very "Big Monday" because of exactly that reason. The challenge of having no Cup or Truck race is on the table.
After the Nationwide highlights, it should be interesting to see what stories the network chooses to expose and what topics they put on the table for discussion.
When all three series are running, it is easy to fill an hour with talk and video. On this Monday, there is no TWIN on SPEED and NASCAR Now is the only live NASCAR program on the air.

(I had a feeling google was gonna eat this message, glad I copied it to clipboard)
Maybe NN will do an indepth report of the struggles of the Wide regulars and how they cant get into the races when the Cup guys are there.
I know when they ask, the Wide drivers all say they like racing against the Cup guys for the experience, but in truth I would bet there is a lot of resentment on the Wide side for all the Cup guys making it hard for them to get in a race.
It would be a hoot if all the Wide drivers just boycotted one race and let Nascar scramble to fill the slots with Cup regulars.
- March 24, 2008 at 12:30 PM
- Daly Planet Editor said...
One of the reasons I cricized the pre-race show was Bestwick never put this issue into perspective.
There are many drivers who go up-and-down into-and-out-of Cup. Others run full N'wide and limited Cup. There are many scenarios in the mix.
To discuss the situation, you have to suggest rule changes. Should fulltime Cup drivers be limited in N'wide competition? Should Cup drivers who run less than a certain number of races be included in the season long points of the drivers who ran all the events? There are lots of suggestions to improve the return on investment for N'wide sponsors.
It should be interesting to see what the guys say about it tonight.
- March 24, 2008 at 12:40 PM
- Bill H said...
How do other sports handle it? I am sure that the NFL doesnt let its players play in Arena Football on an off week. The problem may be that Nascar treats the drivers as independent contractors (for lack of a better term) and they can't make a rule to control the influx of the Cup guys into the Wide series (and the Truck series on a smaller scale). I would bet the easiest solution would be to not have the Wide series and the Cup series racing at the same track (or even same side of the country) on the same weekend.

As I look into my crystal ball...
I can just about sense what's to come tonight and the rest of this week.
Whether it is NASCAR NOW or the SPEED programming, we're going to start to see the "positive spin" machine go to work.
Sure, NASCAR NOW will cover the Nashville action, but then attention will eventually have to turn to the Cup series and Martinsville.
Let's see how many times this week we hear about "parity" in the sport and how well the COT is making competition great for the manufacturers. 5 races into 2008 & we have seen all 4 manufacturers decals on the cars in victory lane. We'll hear about how great this is for the sport and this is "just what NASCAR wanted" from the COT.
So... with the tire troubles, the lack of PASSING and side-by-side RACING, this weeks hot topic will be the parity we have seen.
Nothin will be mentioned preparing us ( the fans ) for yet another lack luster 500 laps to be run this weekend at the "paper clip" in Virginia.

JD - just curious,
What time is NASCAR NOW produced in the studio ?
I'm under the impression it isn't LIVE. But I wonder how close to air time they produce it and how "early" on Monday do they begin with production meetings, etc.
Thanks - Ken

International Relations and Cooperation Minister Nkoana-Mashabane said Israel's decision to call up tens of thousands of military reservists to active service was an 'ominous development'. (Gallo)
Briefing media in Cape Town, International Relations and Cooperation Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane said the South African government was gravely concerned at the escalating violence between Israel and Gaza.
"We strongly condemn the disproportionate use of force by the Israeli government, which has resulted in a significant number of deaths and injuries ... particularly among Palestinian civilians, including children."
The government called on both sides to halt all cross-border attacks and agree to a ceasefire.
"Israeli air and naval forces must cease their air strikes and shelling into the Gaza enclave ...
We also call upon Palestinian militants in Gaza to immediately suspend the firing of rockets into Israeli territory," said Nkoana-Mashabane.
Reports earlier on Tuesday were that Israel had put plans for a ground attack on Gaza "on hold" to give peace talks – brokered by Egypt – a chance.
According to the BBC, Israel has set a Thursday deadline for the talks to succeed.
Nkoana-Mashabane said Israel's decision to call up tens of thousands of military reservists to active service was an "ominous development", and implied a large-scale ground assault into Gaza was being contemplated seriously.
"The South African government accordingly appeals to the government of Israel to refrain from such a fatal step, which will not only result in the inevitable loss of a large number of both Palestinian and Israeli lives, but also further inflame sentiments in an already volatile region."
The week-long Israel-Gaza violence follows an Israeli air strike, on November 14, that killed the commander of Hamas's military wing, Ahmed Jabari.
Nkoana-Mashabane condemned the killing, saying it was "in violation of international laws".
Those who engaged in such activities needed to be called to account by the United Nations.
Asked if South Africa had any plans to withdraw its ambassador to Israel, she responded: "That is a decision we will take at the appropriate time." – Sapa

Welcome one, welcome all to our guides coverage for The Pitt DLC. The Pitt DLC allows gamers to access a completely new section of the post-war United States; in this case, the locale once known as Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Now known as "The Pitt," Pittsburgh still has working steel mills, but they're now run by slaves. A man named Ashur controls the show there, and as you'll find out, the totalitarian ruling style exhibited over the residents of The Pitt has been effective enough to hide a vital cure that you will ultimately uncover and retrieve.
And now, without further ado, I present to you IGN Guide's walkthrough for The Pitt.
ATTENTION[edit]If you're looking for Steel Ingot locations, they are in the Unsafe Working Conditions section of the walkthrough. However, for a quick rundown on the locations of all one-hundred Ingots, simply follow this link

Jerry Seinfeld is a Mets fan, for some masochistic reason. Being a Mets fan means always having to say they're sorry. But one silver lining is the very real chance of re-signing Jose Reyes, so that they can pay him $15 million when he's 36 years old, which is the soonest possible time the team will be good again.
Jerry Seinfeld recently named his dachshund puppy after Reyes, and yesterday brought him on TV to make a floppy-eared plea to the shortstop to stay. Jeffery Loria has countered with a Gatorade cooler full of fresh puppy blood, if it'll get a deal done.

CAMPAIGN ORGANISER FOR trade union Fórsa Joe O'Connor has called for an Irish campaign on a four-day working week.
Ireland needs to have a national conversation about the future of work, O'Connor has said, and Fórsa plans to lead a debate on the matter.
It has been reported that four-day weeks boost productivity and worker well-being. In the face of increased automation, entrepreneurs like Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Virgin's Richard Branson have previously said that shorter working weeks will likely become a reality.
So, today we're asking: Would you welcome a four-day working week in Ireland?

PMM mm good.
Oh blog – how I have ignored thee. Back in the saddle so to speak after some crazy time on the road (Siggraph, IBC, etc etc).
By now you have heard of our acquisition of IRIDAS technology (just spent 3 days with their team and am VERY excited about the future), and that Adobe and Automatic Duck have entered into a strategic partnership. Both of these developments are huge for AE, Premiere Pro and production workflow in general.
With that – I am also ECSTATIC that Wes Plate has joined Adobe, and specifically will be working with yours truly as the Product Marketing Manager (PMM) of After Effects (amongst other things). Not only has Wes been an integral part of AE workflows since time immemorial, he explicitly understands that production is not a walled garden. See what Walter Biscardi has to say about it:
Wes and I have known each other for years, and I can't believe we are now on the same team. For edification, the Product Manager (PM) and Product Marketing Manager (PMM) essentially work together along with the entire AE team to define, then articulate what AE will be in the future.

Hughes hails a professional job
Stoke boss Mark Hughes felt his team had done their job professionally after seeing off League One Tranmere in the Capital One Cup third round.
Stephen Ireland marked his first start for the club with the opening goal and Peter Crouch, on his return to the side, struck with the last kick of the game to secure a 2-0 win at Prenton Park.
The Potters, who made seven changes for the tie, will now travel to Birmingham in the next round.
Hughes said: "I was really pleased with how we went about our business tonight.
"When you have a fixture like this in the early rounds of the cup, if you don't approach it in the right manner and give respect to the opposition, and make sure your work is correct, you can cause yourself problems.
"But from the first minute I could tell the lads were focused on what was required.
"There was a good tempo to our passing and our play. We played some really good stuff at times.
"We were in total control of the game, which was really pleasing."
Ireland is hoping to rejuvenate his career under his former Manchester City manager Hughes after joining on a season-long loan from Aston Villa.
The Irishman was at the heart of much of Stoke's good attacking play in the first half, in which they squandered numerous opportunities to make the win more comfortable, before being removed after an hour.
Hughes said: "I was really pleased for Stephen because he is desperate to do well here. I thought he was excellent.
"He got tired and we had to take him off but he got his goal and that was reward for a good time out on the pitch."
Despite Stoke's superiority, their inability to take chances in the first half gave Tranmere encouragement after the break.
Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro and Chris Atkinson both had good opportunities but the Merseysiders, who are 19th in League One, were unable to get back into the game.
Manager Ronnie Moore said: "It was gut-wrenching they scored a second in the last minute but it was a fantastic finish, and that it was what they are all about - you give them a couple of chances and they score.
"But overall I was pleased with the way we defended.
"At 1-0 you always have a chance. Our chance came when Chris Atkinson shot wide from a good position.
"We would have deserved it at that stage for hanging in there because we were playing quality opposition - they are level on points with Manchester United."

Looking for burial place of Lord Bailey of Belfast
My gggreatgrandfather was Lord Bailey of Belfast married to Rebecca. Their daughter, Rebecca fell in love with her fathers coachman, Christopher Graham fled to Morrisburg, Ontario, Canada in 1838. They had 11 children, one of which was my fathers' mother, Julia Catharene Graham. Rebecca was widowed around 1850 and immigrated to Canada where she lived with a son, John Bailey. Daughter Rebecca Bailey Graham died in 1898 in Morrisburg, Ontario. She and Christopher are both buried across the St. Lawrence River in Madrid, NY. Recently found all this out from finding family on line and went to a reunion in Madrid. I have photos of both Rebecca's from the 1800's sometime but can't find anything out about Lord Bailey as he died in Belfast Ireland. They lived in a castle and family did have a picture of it on a wall in Madrid. Don't know where it is now as that was in early 1900's. Anyway, I am having a wonderful journey in searching Ireland. I have a feeling of it being my home. I would appreciate greatly any information anyone may have and I am hoping to find a living cousin in Baileys or Grahams. Blessings, Johanna aka Mamajo

Super Fun Figurative Language!
I love it when my students start making connections! They are seeing figurative language everywhere! It is so funny when they stop in the middle of something and shout, "Simile!"
Here is a figurative language packet I put together with a little super power theme! My students have loved it!

Manhattan Remodel and Cape Cod Affordable
The second half of Bob Vila's Home Again Season 15 features two very different approaches to building a home as Bob revitalizes a 1890s brownstone on New York City's Upper West Side and constructs single-family affordable homes on Cape Cod.
Profiling New York City and Cape Cod, Bob Vila's Home Again will show two very different housing projects in the second half of this 25th anniversary season.
The first show finds us in Manhattan, where Bob joins his son Chris Vila to rejuvenate an Upper West Side brownstone that was originally constructed as a high-end, single-family home. Bob looks at the materials and features that characterize Manhattan brownstones, then walks us through a single floor of the building, which was divided into two separate apartments in the 1940s. Bob identifies period details that remain in the building, including original wrought-iron doors, and mourns the loss of details that once existed in these homes, which featured the highest quality workmanship available.
Architect Brian O'Keefe joins Bob and Chris to review the plans to reconvert the two apartments to one single-floor apartment, bring light and open up space, and redefine the living areas to create a 21st-century urban home. The plan is to create the sleek and chic urban look so desired today. But the building catches up with them as demolition reveals the very bones and character of the place. Original cornices are discovered under drop ceilings, joist work is exposed, and the butchering of the original work is revealed through layers of deconstruction.
A decision is made to follow the context of the building, to keep the cornices and highlight them, to use wood flooring that suggests the floors that once graced the apartment, to reconnect the fireplace and search out an antique mantel, and to have an eye to the finishes that are representative of the high-quality work that characterized the building in the first place. Plasterers are brought on site instead of sheetrockers. Joists are sistered to build them back up and make them level. Throughout the project, Bob meets tradespeople who function more as craftspeople than mere installers. This is fitting for a building on the Upper West Side that sits on the doorstep of historic Central Park. Visiting the park, noting its treasures and its upkeep schedule, brings to mind the history and fabric of New York and this neighborhood.
The project in Mashpee, MA, takes a very different look at house and home, this time as a community response to a housing shortage that is pricing working families out of their own communities. Mashpee, where the average home price is $450,000, with few or no single-family homes available for under $300,000, is responding to the need for diverse housing in a number of ways. Bob visits Mashpee Commons, the ongoing development of a town-centered planned development that will feature all aspects of residential, commercial, community, civic, and religious building when complete.
Beyond the town center, Bob looks at land development and building, which have been constrained by zoning laws requiring two-acre parcels per housing unit. Bob is joined by developer Joe Valle, who seized the opportunity to bypass the ordinance and construct a mix of affordable and market housing at River Hill by invoking Massachusetts's' Act 40B, the state land-use law that says that 3 percent of a town's development must be dedicated to affordable housing.
Once qualified, Valle was able to use a 4.5-acre parcel of land that was ill suited to development as two-acre lots and instead develop them as a neighborhood of 11 homes, 4 of which are affordable by definition and will be sold by lottery to qualified buyers. The homeowners will select from three designs — ranch, cape, and colonial — and will have the same building materials and finishes as the market homes located in the neighborhood. Due to increased density, River Hill will be able to function as a neighborhood with winding streets, accessible house fronts, and adjacent backyards. The homes will all be Energy Star–certified for efficiency, with a focus on materials that make for easy maintenance and upkeep. The Cape Cod story will look at all aspects of affordability, from building, to purchase, to upkeep, to sustainable communities in Massachusetts and as it pertains to the rest of the country.

Amazon Puts Groceries in Its Shopping Cart
Online Retailer Pushes Into Produce Aisle
Even if it is huge already, Amazon.com can't help but try to find ways to get even bigger. The e-retailer, selling everything from auto parts to videogames, may eventually become known for pushing kale and cucumbers. AmazonFresh, its grocery-delivery effort, is still in its infancy: After testing it in Seattle since 2007, Amazon brought the service to parts of Los Angeles in June.
That's not exactly jumping in. But Amazon has good reason to be cautious....

Express oat milk
Oat milk is an amazing vegan alternative to milk. First of all, it's ridiculously tasty. Second, it contains nutrients and fiber. And finally: it's so easy to make at home!
Chocolate spread
Is there anything nicer on a Saturday breakfast than a delicious crisp bread roll with some rich, deep chocolate-flavored spread? I invented this recipe after playing with butterscotch, and it makes a superb sweet, yet bitter, aromatic spread. And the best part is that you can make it in no-time on your own whenever you want!
Italian-meringue buttercream
Following my search for the best icing cream, I arrived to the mythical Italian-meringue buttercream — it's simply amazing, both silky and fluffy, deliciously light and creamy... You should follow my recipe to achieve this amazing icing cream with minimal effort :-)
Shepherd's pie
This one is a real pickle — it's extremely simple, and doesn't look spectacular, but packs a serious punch of flavor and deliciousness. You can easily upgrade or downgrade the recipe based on your liking, use different ingredients, but as long as you make ground meat under a blanket of mashed potatoes, it's gonna be fine ;-)
Coffee cake
My first real cake, made with delicious coffee-flavored buttercream. It was really good, and simple! Because this cake doesn't require leveling, you can simply bake two layers separately, then stack them — a perfect recipe for beginners! :-)
I made my cake with normal instant coffee, but you can also use decaf coffee for same taste, but caffeine-free cake! :-)

At Apple and AT&T stores in Manhattan, eager first-day buyers of the iPhone 3G get their hands on Apple's upgraded smartphone Friday morning. But does it really take 10 to 15 minutes to get set up? CNET News' Caroline McCarthy and Marguerite Reardon reported live from the bustling retail outlets. Click here for CNET News' complete iPhone 3G coverage.
McCarthy, 7:08 a.m. ET at the Apple store on Fifth Avenue: There's a HUGE gathering of cop cars across the street, lights flashing and all, but it doesn't appear to be iPhone-related.
McCarthy, 7:10 a.m.: Apple store representatives are handing out bottled water, and the Waiting for Apples team is handing out apples. Looks like the cop cars are doing a routine drill. They're driving south down Fifth Avenue now.
McCarthy, 7:15 a.m.: The activists from Waiting for Apples have dismantled their "camp" to save up space.
McCarthy, 7:17 a.m.: Looks like Conde Nast is in on the promo stuff too. A whole lot of people are carrying copies of Wired.
McCarthy, 7:22 a.m.: Security is saying I don't look "credentialed" enough to be press, not letting me get a photo I wanted to. I just went around the other side, though. I think that he just wanted to exert authority and talk down to people.
McCarthy, 7:27 a.m.: News crews are everywhere. My impression is that the people waiting this year are even younger than last year, or maybe that's because I'm getting older. More dogs are in line than last year too. Greg Packer, last year's infamous first-in-line guy, is closer to No. 10 this year.
Reardon, 7:30 a.m. ET at the AT&T store on Upper West Side 95th and Broadway: With the exception of one guy, who camped out overnight in his sleeping bag, the AT&T store is relatively quiet. People didn't start showing up until around 4 a.m., store officials said.
Jeff Peidrahite, 35, lives just two blocks from the store. He arrived around 4 a.m. for the phone he said he's waited a year to buy. A current AT&T customer, Peidrahite said he is a huge Apple fan but wasn't going to buy the slower iPhone that came out last year. He also wasn't about to wait in the crazy line that started forming at Apple's 5th Avenue store last weekend.
"I'm a die-hard fan," he said. "But I wasn't going to camp out for it."
The bulk of the line at this location, which runs about halfway down the block, only arrived at the store around 7 a.m. For most, it seems like a smart strategy. The store has 60 phones, 20 of which are the 16GB models.
Natalie Green, 20, who arrived around 7:10 a.m. with her mother, lamented that she should have gotten up earlier. Green, who was toward the end of the line, most likely won't get a phone today. But she isn't deterred.
"I should have been here earlier," she said. "But it's not a big deal. If I don't get one today, I'll come back tomorrow."
McCarthy, 7:35 a.m.: I now have a cushy spot in the press section, though people keep asking me if I'm allowed to be standing here. I'm standing next to some local news crews who are wondering whether to prioritize coverage of the iPhone or of a murder in the Bronx.
McCarthy, 7:38 a.m.: Apple store representatives declined to tell me how many employees are on hand. It looks as if they will be doing a "gauntlet" of employees to usher people, as they did last year. Apple PR is having some issues dealing with foreign film crews who either don't speak much English or are claiming that they don't. They're trying to really pack everyone in.
McCarthy, 7:41 a.m.: There is massive cheering going on inside the Apple store. It sounds like the employees are revved up. There's a big press presence, but way fewer people are crammed into the press section than were there last year. There are fewer spectators too.
McCarthy, 7:45 a.m.: One of the activists from the front of the line has decided to give an impromptu speech about sustainable agriculture. Something about turning the White House lawn into an organic farm.
McCarthy, 7:56 a.m.: Four minutes left, and a gauntlet of employees just formed.
McCarthy, 8:00 a.m.: It's on. The first guy in line ran ahead and was restrained by security. He was throwing apples. The other activists are well-behaved; they got iPhones. The apple thrower was going to give his iPhone to Barack Obama (I think that's what he said), anyway. I got it on video--coming soon.
McCarthy, 8:06 a.m.: After the first "pack" of customers is in, Apple employees restricted further entry. Now they're letting the second pack in. This is the exact same protocol as last year's launch.
McCarthy, 8:12 a.m.: The first person out is a female activist. That was as fast as advertised. Now the guy who had been restrained by security was just allowed in with two police escorts. Five bucks says the cops buy iPhones too.
McCarthy, 8:20 a.m.: Turns out, the first woman to leave actually did not have an iPhone with her. Maybe she hadn't planned on getting one in the first place. It was a man who first got his hands on the iPhone--and he was not first in line. He is now surrounded by reporters.
McCarthy, 8:26 a.m.: That first guy to get his hands on the iPhone 3G, 24-year-old David Yoo, had actually been about 75th in line. He said he'd been here since midnight and somehow managed to be the first to get his phone. He then left abruptly because he didn't want to miss work. I didn't catch what his job is, but I did catch that he got a 16GB iPhone and had previously owned an iPhone.
McCarthy, 8:32 a.m.: I'm speculating that some of the very young people near the front of the line may have been having issues. The purchase requires a credit card, one's Social Security number, and possibly a photo ID. This line is definitely not moving as fast as last year's because of the in-store activation procedures.
Reardon, 8:41 a.m. at the AT&T store in Times Square: The scene in Times Square is definitely far less chaotic and crazy than it is at the Apple store on Fifth Avenue. I just did a quick appearance with CNET TV colleague Natali Del Conte on the Early Show and was amazed at the crowd assembled.
The Times Square AT&T store has a line that wraps around the front of the store on Broadway, around the block, and up on 43rd Street. The line is interrupted at points to make room for the entrances of theaters and other buildings in the neighborhood.
People standing near the front of the line said they got to the store around 5:30 a.m., and there were about 18 people in line--a far cry from the crowds assembled near Apple's Fifth Avenue store.
McCarthy, 8:41 a.m.: Greg Packer, the guy who had been first in line last year and maybe 10th this year, just left the store with his iPhone in hand. The frenzy is going to last for several more hours, but things are dying down. Press members are starting to leave.
Reardon, 9 a.m.: Word on the street (and I mean this literally, as I'm sitting on the curb in Times Square at the AT&T store) is that the Times Square store has between 50 and 200 phones.
Miguel Gallego, 30, who is about 60 people back in the line, was told when he arrived around 7:10 a.m. by an AT&T store official that it definitely had enough iPhone 3Gs for all the people standing in line at the time. Unfortunately, the store official wasn't so clear about whether it'd have enough of the 16GB model. And that's what Gallego is hoping to get. But even if he can't get the bigger-storage phone, he said he's still willing to buy the 8GB version.
Reardon, 9:15 a.m.: The line is moving very slowly. I'd compare it to a turtle crossing hot asphalt. It's almost painful to watch. People standing in line have been told that it will take 15 minutes per customer to get people activated on the AT&T network. This is regardless of whether customers have an account. But it appears to be taking much longer than that.
There are about 10 AT&T representatives in the store helping customers. And only 10 customers are allowed in the store at a time, so people are trickling in one by one to sign up for the new phone.
I'll have an update in a little bit of how that process is working inside when I talk to people coming out of the store. The security folks here won't let anyone, including reporters such as myself, in the store unless they've been standing in line. The security guard was even a bit touchy about me taking pictures outside the store through the glass door.
Reardon, 9:25 a.m.: The line is moving! The smell of the New York sewer system from my temporary office on the curb was making me a bit nauseated. Note to self: don't set up camp next to a manhole cover. Anyway, I've moved indoors.
I'm in a cafe next to the AT&T store. But now I have a perfect view of people waiting in line on 43rd Street. It looks as if the line took a major jump forward, which must mean that the AT&T represenatives inside have moved a big group of people through the iPhone activation process.
This has got to be a good sign for people like Roberto Ramirez, 35. He got in line at about 7:15 a.m. He was concerned when he realized he wasn't going to make it to work by 9:30 a.m. Luckily for him, his boss is on maternity leave. And he's got his BlackBerry, so he won't miss any of the action at work.
Reardon, 9:50 a.m. Lots of working people, like myself, are psyched about the iPhone's support for Microsoft Exchange e-mail. It means that the new iPhone 3G and the older iPhone with a software upgrade will now allow people to easily get their work e-mail pushed to them.
Being able to get his work e-mail was the main reason that David Ford, 22, wanted to get the new iPhone. Ford, who works as a public-relations representative, really needed a smart phone to keep up with everything happening with his clients. And when he heard that the iPhone would support push e-mail, he said he was sold.
But it looks like it will take a lot more than e-mail support for IT departments to make the switch. When Ramirez, who works for oil giant Hess, asked his office's IT guy if he could ditch his company-issued BlackBerry for the iPhone, he was told no way.
The biggest issue is that Hess has a service contract with Verizon Wireless. And the company isn't about to give that up for a few hundred employees who want the iPhone.
Miguel Gallego, 30, who also uses a BlackBerry for work, said his company isn't switching to the iPhone. He said the iPhone would have to access Bloomberg messaging and news for him and his co-workers to ditch the BlackBerry. But Gallego isn't concerned that he will have to carry another device around.
"It's a bummer I have to carry two devices," he said. "But it's better than carrying three. With the iPhone, I can now get rid of my first-generation iPod."
McCarthy, 10:55 a.m.: I took a live-blogging break to post a couple of other items. The line here at the Apple store on Fifth Avenue is still very long (I'm guessing that it's about 400 to 500 people strong) and slow-moving. The first 150 or so queuers are snaked through barricades to cut down on length. That's on the block between 58th and 59th streets on Fifth Avenue. The line continues to the corner of 58th and all the way to the corner of 58th and Madison. It ends slightly around the corner.
McCarthy, 11:05 a.m.: I talked to someone who was about 100 people back. He said he's been waiting two hours, which indicates that the line is moving slowly but steadily. I speculate that some people may have dropped out of the line when they realized that they wouldn't make it to work on time. It also appears that regular Apple customers (not looking to buy an iPhone 3G today) are out of luck this morning, at least at this location.
McCarthy, 11:05 a.m.: Now I'm actually in the store, after a bit of negotiating with security. There's a line leading up to the counter. Someone here commented that activation wait times of an estimated 40 minutes are the result of a problem at AT&T, not Apple.
Reardon, 11:15 a.m.: The average wait time appears to be about two hours. AT&T representatives have been working the line all morning, updating people on what's happening inside the store.
Apparently, there have been issues with getting people activated. Tim Haden, 31, had been waiting in line since 7:30 a.m. He finally made it into the store at 10:35 a.m. But it took him a grueling 25 minutes inside the store to set up his account for the iPhone.
Haden was already an AT&T customer and has the HTC Tilt, which he can't stand. So what took him so long? Haden said there wasn't anything unusual about his situation but that the computers in the AT&T store were very slow. And that's what the hold-up was.
Now Haden is headed into work about an hour and a half late. He plans to finish activating his phone on iTunes from the office.
"I have all day to play with it," he said. "I'm just looking forward to sitting down and having a cup of tea." (Did I mention Haden is British, which explains the tea bit?)
McCarthy, 11:26 a.m.: A few commenters have asked us whether they can feasibly grab iPhones during their lunch breaks. We don't recommend it, since the AT&T activation servers are continuing to be problematic, and people say they're waiting two hours or more. The Waiting for Apples activists, meanwhile, have set up shop in-store and are hanging out with customers, etc. That explains why they weren't the first to leave the store.
McCarthy, 11:30 a.m.: The line is pretty much at a standstill, and we're hearing reports from San Francisco that the New York activation system is down.
Reardon, 11:30 a.m.: The line at the AT&T store is dwindling. At last count, there were approximately 30 people standing in line. The bad news for many, though, is that the store is already out of the 16GB iPhone 3G. This means that all that's left is the cheaper 8GB version.
Gary Castillo, 19, says he doesn't care. He really wanted more memory on his iPhone 3G, but he'll take the 8GB phone. He wants it so badly, he's even willing to spend $300 to break his contract with T-Mobile to get the iPhone 3G.
Castillo has multiple lines with T-Mobile, which is why the early-termination fee is so high. Of course, if he waited a week, he'd likely be able to get the 16GB model that he really wants. But after passing on the first-generation iPhone, Castillo says he can't wait any longer.
"I just need it today," he said.
McCarthy, 11:40 a.m.: Alas, the line is moving again, but still not very fast.
Reardon, 11:45 a.m.: The big story of the day for the launch of the iPhone 3G will undoubtedly center around activation issues. Rashid Mannan stood in line at the Apple store on Fifth Avenue at 6 a.m to make sure that he could be one of the first to get his hands on the iPhone 3G. Mannan did the same thing a year ago, when the original iPhone came out.
When he reached the front of the line at 8:30 a.m., he was set to buy his new phone. But there was an issue with his existing AT&T account. Mannan wasn't sure what, exactly, the issue was, except that he has a business account.
The Apple store representatives weren't able to pull up any of his AT&T account data. So they sent him to AT&T. Mannan tried calling the AT&T service line, but he was put on hold for a half hour. He then decided to head down to the AT&T store in Times Square. But once there, AT&T representatives told him he'd have to wait in line all over again.
At this point, the line was still wrapped around the block, and the wait averaged about two hours.
"I am really annoyed," Mannan said. "I mean, I waited in line already for over two hours. It's AT&T's problem; not mine."
Mannan was already late for work around 11 a.m., so he decided to leave and try his luck again later. I'll follow up with him via e-mail to see when he finally gets his iPhone 3G.
Reardon, 12:02 p.m.: The line at the AT&T store here is much shorter now, and customers seem to be getting through the line in about an hour or hour and a half. It appears, based on news coming out of the Apple store on Fifth Avenue, that this AT&T location might be a quicker bet. I am heading downtown to the Apple store on 14th Street to check out the scene there. So stay tuned.
McCarthy, 12:07 p.m.: An iPhone was just activated next to me. It took about 10 minutes.
McCarthy, 12:14 p.m.: Staff are now estimating a 90-minute wait (from the end of the line outside) and are telling people that they are well-stocked. They didn't clarify whether they were well-stocked with both versions of the iPhone 3G.
McCarthy, 12:49 p.m.: The line is slightly shorter now, no longer extending to the corner of 58th and Madison. An Apple staffer confirmed to me that no one is going home with an activated phone. The accounts are activated, and the phones are unbricked, but the service is not activated. That needs to be done at home via iTunes. The staffer anticipates that reported iTunes activation issues will be resolved this afternoon.Amid the mayhem, it is important to note that people are not going totally psycho. The Apple store staff here are being very professional, and customers not going crazy (or at least they don't appear to be).
McCarthy, 1:53 p.m.: It looks like people are finally getting back on track with activation. Wait time is probably getting closer to an hour.
Reardon, 2:00 p.m. at the Apple store on 14th Street: The line shows no signs of letting up.
Some people just reaching the door now have been in line since 8 a.m. Allyson Franklin, 40, and her 11-year-old daughter, Giovanna, have been in line for five hours.
Giovanna, who has had a cell phone since she was 6 years old, said she just had to get the iPhone 3G the first day it came out. She, like many of the people here braving the bright and very hot sunshine, say they're afraid that if they don't get the iPhone today that Apple will not have enough in the coming weeks to meet consumer demand.
"I just didn't want it to be another (Nintendo) Wii situation," Allyson said. "We had to wait five or six months for that."
Craig Kaiser, 39, of West Chester County, N.Y., who joined the line around 11:45 a.m. and is not even halfway up the block to the Apple store, said the same thing.
"I'd rather wait in line today than have to keep checking the Internet and calling stores in a week, seeing where they have phones in stock," he said.
Despite the long lines, people are still in good spirits. With next to no shade on West 14th Street here in the Meat Packing District, Apple is handing out umbrellas and distributing free water. One woman, who happens to be an Apple retail employee, is spending a vacation day standing in line with her boyfriend, who wants an iPhone 3G. True love.

CEV launches inaugural Beach Volleyball Summer Festival
"The introduction of the Beach Volleyball Summer Festival does fulfil our intention to expand our development projects with the long-term goal to support the sport and get as many young people as possible introduced to Beach Volleyball" CEV President André Meyer says. "We are starting this ambitious project by supporting two youth festivals in the Netherlands and England. Though they differ in their concept, they share the same ultimate goal which is to make sure the young generations get to know Beach Volleyball and especially get to feel the uniqueness of this sport that has turned into one of the most successful and popular disciplines included on the Olympic program".
As the Dutch Volleyball Federation (NeVoBo) will be hosting the 2015 FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championship in The Hague, the organizers have decided to attempt a world record in conjunction with that event, i.e. to set up 500 Beach Volleyball courts there in Scheveningen where amateur players will be able to compete and enjoy the unique flavour of this sport. This follows up on the very successful premiere celebrated last year by the time Scheveningen did host the European Beach Volleyball Championship – Final and with the support of CEV and Mikasa, the organizers aim at seeing the event grow in 2013 and 2014 to become the major Youth Beach Volleyball event in the Netherlands. The CEV will be supporting the festival – which is scheduled for June 15 – by providing Mikasa branded nets and Beach Volleyballs. The festival is not only addressed to young players but will be also developing the skills of sports teachers and coaches of clubs from all over the Netherlands. During the festival the Dutch Federation will organize a seminar for its youth Beach Volleyball coaches.
The second event included on the program of the inaugural CEV Beach Volleyball Summer Festival is the Sandbanks Beach Volleyball Festival scheduled for July 5-7 at Sandbanks Beach, Poole, England. A total of 20 separate age group and gender competitions – including the British Junior Beach Volleyball Championships and the English South West Regional Junior Beach Volleyball Championships – will be held there on 40 up to 45 courts on a natural sand beach.
The event – promoted by Volleyball England – follows up on the unique legacy of the London Olympics and is most likely to deliver new and committed Beach Volleyball players. Once the festival comes to a close, the balls and nets provided by CEV and its partner Mikasa will be used to support 3 key youth projects in the South West of England. One of such projects is part of a wider Volleyball academy being run by former GBR assistant coach Joel Banks with GBR Olympians Ben Pipes and Dan Hunter as the Volleyball coaches. A former FIVB World Tour player, Denise Austin, will be running a series of Junior King & Queen of the beaches on some of the UK's best seaside resorts throughout the summer where nets and balls provided by CEV and Mikasa will be used too. Moreover, the technical equipment to be dispatched for the Sandbanks Summer Festival will be used also by the Wessex Volleyball Club to run Beach Volleyball sessions each evening and at weekends.
