Hello everyone. I'm new here and I was just wondering if any of you out there are 40+? If so, what are some of the adjustments you had to make and/or complications you come across in regards to age. After reading quite a few posts, I'm seeing a very young population....at least mostly under 30. Am I right. I'm really looking forward to teaching in Asia but it looks like they really want young, slim, blonde, blue-eyed females . I hope this isn't entirely true....any offers of advice or responses would be greatly appreciated. Back to top captain kirkJoined: 29 Jan 2003 Posted: Thu Jun 19, 2003 7:22 am Post subject: age is only skin deep; it depends on how you look. do you look cherubic or pixie-ish? if you usually get a charge out of the electric antics of kids chances are you'll be smiling. and how would you react to playing to a juvenile audience all day? would it get you down and give you a scowling mug? i start out with kids just out of kindy and end with sixteen year olds who kid me about having a juvenile sense of humour, i ought to act my age and grow up. i'm a stand up comic for kids all day, what do they expect, theories? having faith that you aren't just you're deteriorating higher function in a juvenile environment is a pre-requisite to looking good, ie. smiling. the only thing worse than a fool is a rigid fool. the job desciption is 'horse around with english'. and you are gogo. it took a little longer for the recruiters to find stuff. and the offer might be low. but they always offer to see if you will 'make do' or endure from the get-go. to demand more is a sign of spunky confidence which looks good to them, especially if you have already taught some. the jobs might be out in the environs. but there are people who lived and worked in seoul, and left for the environs by choice. better air, more nature, more casual. in my opinion, the best tactic is to play it safe and visit schools. take the bus around the country checking out the people. does your boss look like a good guy? sit down with him.

Thanks for the reply captain....In response, yes, I have taught young children and found it to be fun and challenging as it is with all children. I was hoping that they wouldn't be so superficial and by the sounds of it, I still have a chance. Onward and upward! You didn't mention your age? Just curious, that's all.

Back to top schwaJoined: 18 Jan 2003Location: Yap Posted: Fri Jun 20, 2003 7:09 pm Post subject: 46 when I first flew over, just signed on for a fifth year yesterday. First gig was in a hakwon & I found it invigorating. The most valuable experience I had coming in was having parented two myself. I'm working in the public school system now where age is a definite asset in terms of respect. Getting hired initially was a bit uphill. A few private institutes value maturity & stability but many directors might feel threatened by an employee older than themselves -- it seldom happens here. Age generally equates with position & there are cultural strictures against advising or criticizing an elder. But thats gradually changing. Some other hakwons have had bad experiences with older teachers. They can be set in their ways & lack the necessary flexibility. They might lack the stamina it takes to keep up with the pace or to work when sick (generally expected). Some are social misfits who couldnt make a life for themselves in the west (same can be said for some younger teachers too). An older person first applying needs to stress anything about themselves that suggests adaptability & vitality. Travel experience is a plus. Physically active hobbies are useful to mention, as well as any schooling undertaken later in life. Just about any suggestion that youre young at heart will help (& a photo that doesnt show you as a crone or a scary old guy). Once youre in & have proven your worth, youve got it made here. Work situations aside, some older folk find the expat social scene not much to their liking -- all the drinking & carousing of their own youth all over again. Fortunately for me, I never outgrew it! But some social interaction (especially at first) really helps with the transition & an ability to play along with the largely younger teaching set is a benefit. You might feel lonely otherwise.

We 're timber framing craftspeople - we build houses, barns and buildings of many different shapes and sizes. We also build trusses, gates, bridges and other similar structures. All of our work is hand-crafted, precisely joined and securely built using current best practices, balanced with a respect for centuries of traditional timber carpentry.
But there's more to us than that; we're not just builders. We do this because we're passionate about timber framing and timber frame homes, about historic preservation, about craftsmanship and employing traditional carpentry to build high quality timber buildings and structures. Aside from the hand crafting of wooden timber buildings, joinery and traditional carpentry, our life experiences matter; they provide us guidance and wisdom to make choices consistent with the plan at hand.
Traditional timber framing is the use of heavy timbers joined together with interlocking joints and pegs to form a structural skeleton for supporting something. Historically, it's found in ships (shipwrights), barn construction, church and cathedral architecture, home construction, covered bridges, and small commercial structures; perhaps a farm stand or park band shell. Timber frame construction uses King Posts, Queen Posts, and mortise and tenon joinery. In one form or another, mortise and tenon joinery has been used for many hundreds of years, perhaps even more than a thousand years.
We use our own saw mill to turn logs into beautiful structural timbers, and we recycle and reclaim old barn wood, especially when we find old timbers and vintage wood of different varieties of oak (white oak, red oak, etc).
Our shop is in Gilbertsville in southeastern Pennsylvania, about 50 miles outside of Philadelphia in the tri-county area of Montgomery County, Chester County and Berks County. Geographically speaking, we'll go anywhere to work on the "right" project. We will build locally in Pennsylvania, especially the Philadelphia area suburbs in Bucks County, Delaware County, Lehigh County, Lehigh Valley, Lancaster County, and in the Poconos (Pocono Mountains), North Hampton County, but also in New Jersey, New York, Maryland and Delaware, and we've even gone far away as South America!

It's the best peep show in Manhattan. And it's free.
Tourists strolling down the newly renovated High Line, or those tooling around the trendy Meatpacking District can simply look up and catch an eyeful thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows at swanky hotel The Standard, the New York Post reported.
"I've seen a few porn shoots -- three dudes walking around a hotel room with cameras and lights filming a couple," Joe, the manager of the nearby Brass Monkey bar told the Post. "I've seen at least 10 different people having sex. Saturday nights are the best time for the show."
A woman who works at an W. 13th St. boutique said she's seen hotel guests strip down and get busy.
"We saw a naked girl jumping up and down on a trampoline right in front of the window," Shannon Brickner told the Post. "From the street, I saw a man and a woman. Everyone was looking up at them.
"They were facing outwards, and I could see their backsides pressed up against the window. I thought it was a photo shoot or porn."
On the hotel's Facebook page, The Standard encourages patrons to let it all hang out, according to the paper.
"We encourage you to exercise your inner exhibitionist. Please share your intimate and explicit photos with us -- those floor to ceiling windows aren't just for the views," read the post, which has since been changed, according to the Post.
City Council Speaker Christine Quinn told The Post she wants the peep show to come to an end.
"The alleged actions of The Standard are unacceptable," she said in a statement.
The hotel did not return calls for comment, according to the paper.

LA QUINTA, Calif. (AP) – South Korea's Meen Whee Kim shot a 5-under 67 on Friday on PGA West's Jack Nicklaus Tournament Course to maintain a one-stroke lead after the third round of the PGA Tour qualifying tournament.
The 20-year-old Kim had an 18-under 131 total in the six-round event. The final top 25 and ties will receive 2013 PGA Tour cards and the next 50 and ties will earn Web.com Tour cards.
Sweden's Robert Karlsson was second after a 65. The 11-time European Tour winner also played the Nicklaus course. Edward Loar was 16 under after a 66 on the Nicklaus course, and two-time PGA Tour winner Vaughn Taylor had a 69 on the Nicklaus course to top the group at 15 under.
Camilo Villegas, a three-time winner on the tour, had a 66 on the Nicklaus course to jump from a tie for 23rd to a tie for ninth at 13 under. Ross Fisher also was 13 under after a 65 on the Nicklaus course.
Two-time heart transplant recipient Erik Compton was tied for 17th at 11 under after a 68 on the Nicklaus course.
Former UCLA star Patrick Cantlay was tied for 108th at 2 under after a 71 on the Stadium course. Kevin Tway also was 2 under after a 69 on the Stadium course.

Spaghetti makes very good Biff bait.
The Duck Has Spoken.
Hehehehe. Biff sure loves his spaghetti.
Ah ha, just noticed the Star Wars reference in the title. IT'S A TRAP!!!
The Duck Has Spoken.
How did that trap work? I mean, he's just tied to a tree. That branch clearly wasn't pulled down and something triggered it to snap back. Somebody must have physically tied Biff to that tree, and that person then left the bowl of spaghetti just for spite. The fiend!
#357: "In retrospection, a goblet of source of spaghetti in the center of a forest is something suspicion."
In other news, I don't get the title. o 0
he looks like he's still tryin to reach the spaghetti, even though he's tied up. if only he had a fork…
oh good lord, a meme.
We all know the Flying Spaghetti Monster was responsible.
Woo! Book coming soon, I can hardly wait!
"In other news, I don't get the title. o 0"
Ackbar was in Star Wars, famous for his line "It's a trap!"
Whoever trapped him will probably get arrested. You know…since spaghetti is illegal.
Sorry for the double post, but…
Sleepingorange: General Ackbar (the fish guy from one of the Star Wars movie) shouts "It's a trap!" at one point in the film. The quote "it's a trap!" became an internet meme at one point. Chris is making a reference to the meme and quote.
spaghetti inches from his face
nefarious trap
i'm beginning to think Biff
enjoys pain
delerious delight
So when *IS* Biff season?
Also: Is it a crime to hunt Biffs over bait?
The Pastafarians Strikes Back!
If you have no idea what a pastafarian is, then here:
Is it just me, or does spaghetti seem to cause Biff the most grief?
I'd think he'd have developed a pavlovian aversion to it by now.
… Unless we only see the random mishaps and not the usual noodly enjoyment?
ooooh! Floor Pie!
Spaghetti is outlawed too, isn't it?
I want a full size poster of this one.
Oh, him and his spaghetti.
lmao theres like 9 different ones about spagetti
its like a trademark :p
No offense to you Chris, but honestly, I prefered your other ones, he doesn't seem to get maimed as often, I loved number 102, and stuff like that doesn't happen as much. But it's still awesome, don't get me wrong.
aww! that would make me cry! being that close to an amazing bowl of spaghetti and not be able to eat it…
Poor Biff, maybe he can get at the noodles with his eyebrows?
Also, Ackbar is an admiral.
In retrospect, I guess something seemed wrong once I was stuck in the tree…Too bad they couldn't send out a handsome fireman.
And Biff, you stay away from the forest. They have bad mushrooms, gourmand hunters and kite-eating trees
All hail the FSM!!!
Poor Biff without his spaghetti. Chris Why are you so cruel to him?
If that happened to me, the minute I got down someone would pay. I love spaghetti!!!! My grandma makes GOOD spaghetti…*dreams* I just had spaghetti for dinner.
IT'S A TRAP! I love that line!
And here I was, thinking of the Indian Emperor Ackbar…
haha 😀
Nonsense. Rebel Alliance Admiral Ackbar for the WIN!
No, it's not a trap, Biff's hanging out with his best friend and favourite meal.
Biff's still trying to get the Spaghetti. It's funny.
Excellent choice of title, if I do say so myself.
I suppose Biff really likes spaghetti, considering all the comics you've made of it. It's about time it got him in trouble.
I just recently saw the original trilogy again, so a few Star Wars jokes lost on me have come back.
I saw an uneaten pie in a meadow by my house before. I was tempted to eat it but I thought I would end up like Biff here so I left it. I wonder what happened to that pie…
Use the force, of your epic eyebrows
It's like the bowl of soup that attacks you in the jungle on Improbable Island!

Inspired by the map made by Bostonography for their post about the 100th anniversary of the Red Line in Boston opening (from Harvard Sq to Park St) I decided to see what the system would have looked like in the vernacular of the modern system map. The present system map didn't come into being until the system-wide style modernization in 1967. Before then the maps didn't use colors (or when they did it was different, as in the case where the "Red" line was colored blue). Lines were known by where they went, as in the Washington St subway or the Cambridge subway, or the Commonwealth Ave trolley. The names were chosen (so the urban legend goes) because: Red Line went to Harvard (their school color being crimson), the Green Line went along the Emerald Necklace, the Orange Line went under Washington St which was in colonial times known as Orange St, and the Blue Line which went underwater.
So instead of just flashing a bunch of old maps that all look completely different, it made more sense to stick to one style and animate each year when the system was expanded (or contracted in many cases). I toyed with the idea of having text describing each change on the map but found that too confusing since you can't control it for each slide (which I may create later).
Listed below are the changes to the system by year. I refer to all lines by their present day names:
- 1897: The original subway opens for Green Line trolleys from Allston to Park St.
- 1898: Park St to North Station is opened with a trolley incline at North Station for all trolleys to the north of the city.
- 1901: Orange Line opens in four segments: Sullivan Sq to North Station (elevated), North Station to Dover St (Atlantic Ave elevated), Dover St to Dudley Sq (elevated), and a routing though the Green Line subway from North Station to Pleasant Ave.
- 1904: Blue Line opens as a trolley tunnel from Maverick Sq to Court Sq at Scollay Sq.
- 1906: Atlantic Ave station opens on the Blue Line.
- 1908: Washington St subway opens on the Orange Line, Green Line restored to trolley service.
- 1909: Orange Line extended from Dudley Sq to Forest Hills.
- 1912: Red Line from Harvard Sq to Park St opens; Green Line extended to Lechmere; Green St station on the Orange Line added.
- 1914: Green Line extended to Kenmore Sq.
- 1915: Red Line extended to Washington St.
- 1916: Red Line extended to South Station; Blue Line extended to Bowdoin Sq.
- 1917: Red Line extended to Broadway.
- 1918: Red Line extended to Andrew.
- 1919: Orange Line extended to Everett; Beach St station closes.
- 1921: Arlington station added to Green Line.
- 1922: Lechmere becomes terminal for Green Line trolleys.
- 1924: Blue Line converted from trolley to heavy rail.
- 1927: Red Line extended to Fields Corner.
- 1928: Red Line extended to Ashmont.; Atlantic Ave el service cut back, rush hour service only from Dudley to North Station (Dashed Line).
- 1929: Mattapan High Speed Line opens.
- 1932: Green Line extended past Kenmore with portals for Watertown, Boston College, and Cleveland Circle trolleys; Charles St station added to Red Line.
- 1938: Atlantic Ave elevated service ended.
- 1941: Huntington Ave subway opened on Green Line from Copley to Arborway.
- 1952: Blue Line extended to Suffolk Down.
- 1954: Blue Line extended to Wonderland.
- 1955: Science Park added to Green Line.
- 1959: Riverside Line added to Green Line from Kenmore Sq to Riverside.
- 1961: Pleasant St portal closed on Green Line.
- 1963: Adams Sq station closed; Scollay Sq changed to Government Center; Mechanics station changed to Prudential (All Green Line).
- 1965: Massachusetts station renamed Auditorium (Green Line).
- 1967: Orange Line stations renamed: Friend-Union > Haymarket, Milk-State/Devonshire > State, Washington/Summer-Winter > Washington, Boylston-Essex > Essex.
- 1969: Green Line Watertown "A" banch closed.
- 1971: Red Line extended from Andrew to Quincy Center.
- 1975: Orange Line Haymarket North extension opens from North Station to Malden Center; Charlestown elevated closed.
- 1977: Orange Line extended to Oak Grove.
- 1980: Red Line extended to Braintree.
- 1983: Quincy Adams station added to Red Line.
- 1984: Red Line extended from Harvard Sq to Davis Sq.
- 1985: Red Line extended to Alewife.
- 1987: Orange Line Southwest Corridor opened from Chinatown (renamed from Essex) to new Forest Hills; Washington St elevated closed; Green Line truncated to Heath St from Arborway.
- 1988: Columbia changed to JFK/UMass; added to Red Line Braintree branch.
- 1990: Auditorium renamed Hynes/ICA (Green Line)
- 2002: Silver Line Phase I: Washington St opens.
- 2004: Silver Line Phase II: South Boston to Logan Airport/City Point opened.
- 2009: Silver Line to City Point discontinued; Silver Line Dudley Sq to South Station opened.
The MBTA of today is hardly recognizable from the system a century ago. This says a lot about the willingness of Boston to change and adapt itself to survive. The many extensions from 1971 to 1987 were funded by transferring funds from canceled highway projects to mass transit. During the 1990s the subway was neglected in favor of expanding commuter rail. These suburban extensions were never paid for and are a huge reason the MBTA is steeped in so much debt today.
Now if you are anything like me (and obviously you are or you wouldn't be here) you want to be able to take in each slide like it's a fine scotch. I've created a gallery of each slide below so you can see each one and track the changes. The gallery viewer also has a slideshow function which works just like the animation above.

As a result of today's vote, the Commission will conduct a full review to determine whether revocation of the antidumping duty order on polychloroprene rubber from Japan would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. The Commission's review in this case will be completed no later than July 29, 1999, unless extended.
The Uruguay Round Agreements Act requires the Department of Commerce to revoke an antidumping or countervailing duty order, or terminate a suspension agreement, after five years unless the Department of Commerce and the ITC determine that revoking the order would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping or subsidies (Commerce) and of material injury (ITC). Reviews of outstanding antidumping and countervailing duty orders in existence as of January 1, 1995, began in July 1998.
The Commission's institution notice in five-year reviews requests that interested parties file information with the Commission concerning the likely effects of revoking the order as well as other industry data. Generally within 95 days from institution, the Commission will determine whether the responses it has received reflect an adequate or inadequate level of interest in a full review. If responses to the ITC's notice of institution are adequate, or if other circumstances warrant a full review, the Commission conducts a full review, which includes a public hearing and issuance of questionnaires.
The Commission's determination to conduct a full review resulted from a 6-0 vote. Chairman Lynn M. Bragg, Vice Chairman Marcia E. Miller, and Commissioners Carol T. Crawford, Jennifer A. Hillman, Stephen Koplan, and Thelma J. Askey concluded that responses were adequate and therefore voted for a full review.
A record of the Commission's vote on this matter is available from the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, 500 E Street SW, Washington, DC 20436. Requests may be made by telephone by calling 202-205-1802. In addition, a statement by Chairman Bragg is available from the Secretary's Office.
The record of the Commission's vote and the statement of Chairman Bragg are also posted on the ITC's Internet server at www.usitc.gov (under "Five-Year (Sunset) Reviews"/"Five-Year Reviews Listing"/"Polychloroprene Rubber from Japan").

About three-quarters of households participate in the spring clean tradition. Which means men and women everywhere are starting to get anxiety about this daunting task. The good news is we've still got a few weeks till the official start of spring. That's plenty of time to find the best prices on cleaning supplies and mentally prepare for the job ahead.
Make a list. The key to a good spring clean is remembering those often neglected areas. Throughout the year you vacuum the floors and clean toilets, but the hard to reach or difficult areas are often left, quite literally, in the dust. Starting a list now will ensure no surface is left behind. According to a survey by the American Cleaning Institute, the top 5 areas people pay special attention to during a spring clean are the windows, blinds/curtains, closets/drawers, ceiling fans, and carpets.
Stock up on cleaning supplies. Waiting till you absolutely need a product, often means spending more. The trick is to stock up on cleaning supplies as you find coupons and sales. So take inventory of what you have, then make a list of what you need and start checking them off as you see good deals. Here are five cleaning coupons to get you started:
Bounty: $1 off one Bounty DuraTowel 6ct. Roll Pack
Scrubbing Bubbles: Save $1 on any Mega Shower Foamer with Ultra Cling
Tide: $1 off one Washing Machine Cleaner
Glad: $1 off any two Trash Products (27ct or larger)
Windex: Save $1 on any Touch-Up Cleaner Product
Shop online. Another advantage to planning ahead, you can order online! Cleaning supplies are one item many don't think to shop online for, but why not? Especially when the price is right. New customers save 20% off and get free shipping at SOAP.com.
Book any additional cleaning services. If you need to hire carpet cleaners, window washers, gutter cleaners, or a junk removal service, now's the time to get it on the calendar. In just a few short weeks, spring-cleaning will be on everyone's mind and these companies will start to get booked up. Check the local tab at coupons.com for deals near you. I found a free sofa cleaning with carpet service and $25 off a deep clean in my hometown.
Research shortcuts for your most dreaded duties. Everyone has a household cleaning task they dread more than others, whether it's achieving streak-free windows or scrubbing bathroom scum. Fortunately there are products that make certain jobs just a little easier. For example, Windex makes an Outdoor Glass & Patio Cleaner that attaches directly onto your hose, making it easy to spray and rinse. Plus, it will clean patio furniture and play equipment, so you can get it all done at once.
Have a few all-purpose cleaners on hand. You'd be amazed at the number of things baking soda and vinegar can clean. Keep these two products on hand. If you're cleaning and realize you forgot to buy a particular cleaner, chances are one of those two can get the job done and get it done well.
Keep it clean long-term. Make 15-minute cleaning plans for each room in your house and write it on an index card. That way, you only have to do the big spring clean once a year. In between, maintain the order by completing one card at a time.

No. 1 Sioux Falls (S.D.) Holds on Against No. 3 Lindenwood (Mo.) 25-22
Dec. 19, 2009

Championship Information | Click Here
ROME, Ga. - Placekicker Braden Wieking hit three field goals and helped lead No. 1 University of Sioux Falls (S.D.) to its fourth national title after a 25-22 win against No. 3 Lindenwood University (Mo.) in the Russell Athletic-NAIA Football National Championship from Barron Stadium in Rome, Ga. In front of 5,000 fans, the game showcased the nation's top two offenses and ended with five lead changes.
The Cougars (15-0) have now won back-to-back titles and have their third ring in four tries. The win is their 29th straight win on the year, which is a school record.
"Winning a championship never gets old," said Sioux Falls head coach Kalen DeBoer, who wrapped up his fifth season with a 67-3 record. "Today was an unbelievable day for our program. These guys on the field poured their hearts out.
"We have a ton of respect for this Lindenwood team today. We knew that they were going to bring it and you could see the reason why they got here. That's a tribute to our guys and how they handled the ups and downs. Championships are won by how guys handle adversity and that is what we did today."
With both teams scoring over 700 points each this year, they got off to slow starts offensively. Lindenwood gained just one first down in the first quarter and 17 total yards. Despite 142 yards in the first 15 minutes, Sioux Falls netted just five points. However, these two teams just needed the first quarter to warm up.
Wieking hit his first 40-yard field-goal in the game, this one coming from 41 yards out to give USF a 3-0 advantage with :54 seconds remaining in the first quarter.
On Lindenwood's first play on the ensuing possession, quarterback Philip Staback committed a miscue deep in his own territory. Standing in the shot gun in his end zone, Staback let the ball slip through his hands on the snap. He was able to pounce on the ball for a safety. That helped Sioux Falls to a 5-0 lead just seconds later.
Just three minutes into the second period, Wieking connected on a 37-yarder to hand the Cougars an 8-0 edge. At that point, Lindenwood was searching for some offense and they got it from a reliable source.
Staback, who has passed for over 3,300 yards this season and 34 touchdowns, hit Matt Bramow for a 19-yard touchdown strike with 7:30 to go in the second. That catch was Bramow's 11th touchdown catch of the year, which tied him for the single-season Lindenwood record. At that point, Lindenwood got to within a 8-7 score.
After holding Sioux Falls to its only three-and-out of the day, the Lindenwood offense heated up with Bramow catching a ball from nine-yards out from Staback. That snare set a school record with 4:14 showing on the clock before the half. At that point, Lindenwood led 14-8.
Sioux Falls threatened with under a minute remaining in the quarter. Facing a fourth-down-and-one and the Lindenwood six-yard line, Sioux Falls quarterback Lorenzo Brown was stuffed by Lindenwood's Logen Wright. That stop preserved a 14-8 halftime Lindenwood lead.
Sioux Falls trailed at the half for the first time this year.
The deficit for Sioux Falls didn't last long. Sophomore Adam Lopez returned the second-half kickoff 91 yards for a score. That return was his second of the year and the first in Championship action since 2006. Sioux Falls grabbed a 15-14 lead at that point and seemingly took momentum.
In keeping with the theme of the second half, Lindenwood's Denodus O'Bryant found the end zone on a 45-yard run at the 11:39 mark of the third quarter. Staback ran in the two-point conversion to cap a 6 play-63 yard drive and the Lions led 22-15.
The next time Lopez got his hands on the ball for Sioux Falls, he ran it back 61-yards on the kickoff to give the Cougars excellent field position at the Lindenwood 26. Three plays later, running back Ryan Lowmiller put Sioux Falls in a 22-22 deadlock after a 2-yard rushing score at the 9:45 mark of the third.
From there, both teams went to work on defense.
With Sioux Falls threatening, Lindenwood linebacker Dan Carlisle stepped in front of a pass from Brown and picked it off in the end zone. That play negated a 13-play drive for Sioux Falls near the end of the third quarter. That was Brown's second interception that he threw in the game and first time all year he tossed two picks.
However, the Sioux Falls defense and running game came through when it counted. Overall, Lindenwood gained just 233 yards of offense, well below its season average of 512 yards of offense. On the ground, Sioux Falls finished with 178 yards and Lowmiller had a big chunk of that (115 yards).
The score remained tied until the Outstanding Offensive Player of the Game, Wieking, nailed a 42-yarder with 9:50 left in the game. That game-winner was Wieking's third field goal of the day and, for him, was hard to describe emotionally.
"Just being here with these guys and knowing that I can contribute for these 20 seniors means a lot to me," said Wieking. "It's an emotion that is hard to explain (on kicking the game-winner) and I am proud to be around a great bunch of guys."
Sioux Falls finished with 376 yards of offense and controlled the clock for nearly 41 minutes. However, the two costly turnovers by Brown inside the red zone were costly.
Staback went 16-of-26 for 144 yards and two touchdowns for the Lions. O'Bryant rushed for 60 yards on just six attempts but the yardage gave him enough to finish his season with exactly 1,000 rushing yards.
For Sioux Falls, Brown passed for 198 yards going 15-for-24 with no touchdowns and two interceptions. On top of Lowmiller's rushing, Brown had 41 net yards on 19 carries.
Defensively, Dominic Studzinski had a team-high of seven tackles (five solo) to go along with 2.0 sacks. For his efforts, Studzinski was named the Outstanding Defensive Player of the Game.
Lindenwood was led on the defensive side by Brandon Gould and Parks Peterson, who each tallied eight tackles apiece.

We are a well kept secret, and in support of an overhaul of our marketing and positioning, you can make a significant difference. We are a world leading vendor of customised mobile and case printers and we need a web site to reflect that. Your mission should you choose to accept it is to help put us up where we belong!
Martel Instruments is a successful company supplying high quality mobile and cased printers. Our key uniques are that we offer unstinting quality and are able to provide a level of customisation and a full service design that cannot be matched by anyone in the world. But we are a well kept secret today
We have several potential audiences for our web site. They can be broadly broken down into the following:
a. Manufacturers of equipment in the medical, automotive, and general electronic test equipment as well as manufacturers of systems that require ticketing and receipting soultions
b. Partners and potential partners for our solutions worldwide
We don't want (at this stage) to change the logo but we do want to rework the website to make it tidier, focus in on our key messaging to the audiences above, and where possible and relevant illicit a response from them.
The landing page needs to be uncluttered, with a statement of our key uniques and with a navigation metaphor that is easy to grasp and will lead the audiences to the approrpiate place to find the information they seek. It needs to be striking and stand out as professional but engaging, especially when compared to other vendors of similar solutions such as Able, GeBe, Custom Engineering,
More detail will be added here shortly but please feel free to ask for feedback as the site will be regularly monitored
- Landing Page with a placeholder for a brief statement of Martel's key unique proposition. As an example (which will be shortened and updated) "Martel is a World leading vendor of customised mobile and panel printing solutions offering a full service approach including advice and guidance on design and customisation.
The service is offered to clients looking to buy at lower volumes as well as those with larger requirements
Our objective is always to build a long term relationship with the client based upon consistently meeting and exceeding requirements, thinking of the things you didn't think of and doing it with unstinting quality"
- Easy navigation for the usual "about us contact us" type pages plus links to "partners" area "products" and "tell us what you want"
- Easy access to pages based on applications of mobile printers (I like the Custom Engineering approach to this)
- eyecatching graphic without overcluttering the site (product photographs can be supplied or taken from the curent site - preference towards products being ised rather than simple product photos)
- Please feel free to let your creative instincts suggest new areas and ways to do this
- A big invitation to "request a test drive"

European Commission - Press release
A new European Consumer Agenda – Boosting confidence and growth by putting consumers at the heart of the Single Market
Brussels, 22 May 2012 – Consumer expenditure, amounting to 56% of EU GDP, reflects the enormous power of the consumer to drive forward the European economy. Only empowered and confident consumers can fully exploit the potential of the Single Market and enhance innovation and growth. This is why the European Commission's strategic vision for EU consumer policy for the years to come – adopted today - aims to maximise consumer participation and trust in the market. Built around four main objectives the European Consumer Agenda aims to increase confidence by: reinforcing consumer safety; enhancing knowledge; stepping up enforcement and securing redress; aligning consumer rights and policies to changes in society and in the economy. It also presents a number of key actions to be implemented between now and 2014.
"Growth in the European Union needs both competitive supply and strong demand. Consumers therefore must be as much centre stage of EU policies as businesses. We need confident consumers to drive forward the European economy", said Viviane Reding, Commission Vice-President and the EU's Justice Commissioner. "We want to stimulate cross-border shopping online, and this is why the EU and its Member States need to bring consumer rights into the digital age. We have taken first steps with the Consumer Rights Directive and with the proposal for modernised data protection rules to boost consumer confidence online. As a next step, the Commission plans to modernise the EU's package travel rules of 1990 to take into account that more and more people now book their holidays on the web. However, it takes more than new laws to make the digital single market work for consumers. Member States need to step up the swift and non-bureaucratic implementation of EU rules so that consumer rights become a concrete reality for our 500 million consumers. "
"In the current economic context a strong consumer policy is a necessity. Empowering Europe's 500 million consumers will be a key contribution to growth in the European economy," said Health and Consumer policy Commissioner John Dalli. "The strategy adopted today aims to empower consumers and build their confidence by giving them the tools to participate actively in the market, to make it work for them, to exercise their power of choice and to have their rights properly enforced. We will do so for instance by revising the EU framework for ensuring that products and food on the Single Market are safe, by stepping up enforcement of EU consumer laws in close cooperation with national authorities, by providing more support to consumers shopping cross-border through the European Consumer Centres, and by ensuring that consumer interests are more systematically integrated into EU policies of key economic importance for households."
European consumers enjoy some of the strongest consumer rights and protection in the world whether protecting them from unsafe products, misleading advertising, unpredictable roaming costs or dubious practices online, or supporting them when things go wrong. The proposals for Alternative Dispute Resolution and Online Dispute Resolution (ADR/ODR) currently on the table will enable them to solve problems quickly, easily and at low cost. Another example is the European Small Claims Procedure which simplifies, speeds up and reduces the cost of litigation in cross-border cases for claims up to €2000. As of 2013 via the e-Justice portal consumers will be able to complete the small claims forms online in any official language simplifying saving them further time and efforts.
While the EU has a substantial corpus of consumer law and the consumer dimension is an important part of many EU policies, a comprehensive framework is needed which also addresses imminent challenges such as those linked to the digitalisation of daily life, the desire to move towards more sustainable patterns of consumption, and the specific needs of vulnerable consumers.
Four main objectives
The Consumer Agenda presents measures designed to achieve the objectives of the EU's growth strategy, Europe 2020. It builds on and complements other initiatives such as the EU Citizenship Report (see IP/10/1390 and MEMO/10/525), the Single Market Act, the Digital Agenda for Europe (see IP/10/581, MEMO/10/199 and MEMO/10/200) and the Resources Efficiency Roadmap (see IP/11/1046). To this end, it is built around four main objectives designed to increase consumer confidence.
Five key sectors
The Agenda supports consumer interests in key sectors.3

DG Justice Consumer and Marketing Law website:
Homepage of Vice-President Viviane Reding, EU Justice Commissioner:

These sectors were identified as some of the most problematic for consumers, according to the Consumer Markets Scoreboard.

BELVIDERE — Boylan catcher Nick Nalewanski said Will Troia "changes his rhythm all the time" and "very, very rarely does anybody get comfortable against him."
Belvidere North certainly didn't. Troia lowered his already miniscule 0.48 ERA by shutting out North on three hits in Boylan's 5-0 Class 3A regional title win Saturday.
"He always keeps batters guessing," North first baseman Luke Mitchell said.
Troia (7-0) struck out 10, all in the first five innings. His dominance was a welcome sight for the Titans, who led only 2-0 after five innings. They also trailed 1-0 until the seventh inning in their 2-1 semifinal win over Marengo.
"Troia has had our number all year," North coach Dennis Kehrer said. "He showed why he is conference MVP. The umpire was giving him a little off the plate and he just lived there. He's a master of location."
Dalton Robison's homer to lead off the second gave Boylan (27-6, 16-2 NIC-10) the only run it would need.
"It was nice to get a quick lead, because I knew Will wasn't going to give up many runs," Robison said. "Any amount of runs is comfortable enough with Will."
Boylan added a second run in the third on a Nalewanski single and a Troia double, but North (19-14, 12-6) kept it close by throwing out two runners attempting to steal in the fifth. Boylan then put the game away in the sixth on Nick Bruno's RBI double and Nalewanski's two-run single.
Boylan moves on to play Sterling regional champ Rochelle (10-17), which upset top-seeded Rock Falls 6-0, at 4 p.m. Thursday in the Rochelle Sectional.
"The talent level in this regional was a lot better than people gave it credit for," Bruno said. "Teams are coming out and playing us really tough. We have to be ready to face that competition and need a little more intensity when we get to the plate early in the game."

CalMon increased Calypso performance visibility and business productivity and lowered the total cost of ownership.
Accenture's new acquisition Formicary helped one of Canada's largest banks improve the monitoring of its Calypso platform.
BMO Capital Markets (BMO), the investment and corporate banking arm of Bank of Montreal Financial Group, uses Calypso for its cross-asset front to back office system which supports almost 500 traders and back office users around the world.
During a recent system upgrade, business users noticed a compromise in the performance of the system, in particular report processing took noticeably longer than usual. The database was found to be the root cause of the issue. However, pinpointing the problem involved many teams and took considerable effort.
In light of this, BMO recognized that better visibility of Calypso engines and server performance would put its support team in a stronger position to identify and respond to glitches before they impact business users.
BMO embarked on a project to enhance its existing generic platform monitoring tool to provide the improved insight into Calypso that was needed. Before long, the bank realized that the project was more complex and costly to implement than originally anticipated.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) � Florida is heading into storm season with some good news.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) � Florida is heading into storm season with some good news.
A state-created fund that backs up private insurers in Florida appears to be in the best financial shape it has been during its 20 years of existence.
New projections show that the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund should have nearly $12 billion available for the upcoming hurricane season that starts on June 1.
An advisory panel for the fund will be given new estimates Thursday from Wall Street firms. Those estimates show that the fund should be able borrow enough money to cover all of its claims.
The financial health of the fund is important because the state can place a surcharge on most insurance policies if the "Cat Fund" runs out of money. Critics have called this a "hurricane tax."

Can I send my employees a link to the L&I website for the poster information instead of posting the actual poster?
No. As an employer, you are required to make the posters available to your employees where they can see and read them. (See No. 10 for posting requirements.) Employers may provide electronic links to the poster information in addition to posting the actual posters in the workplace. For example, if your business has an internal Web page, you could include a link to the workplace posters as an additional resource.
Note: If you have employees who work from home, see No. 2 for specific requirements.
If I have one or more employees in Washington State who work from their home or vehicle, do they have to post the posters in their home or vehicle?
No. As the employer, you are required to make the posters available to your employees where they can see and read them. To comply with this requirement for employees working from their home or vehicle, you may:
Send each employee a set of posters. You can order them at no cost by visiting www.Posters.Lni.wa.gov. You may want to document that you sent the posters to your employees.
Send each employee an email with a link to www.Posters.Lni.wa.gov. Instruct your employees to read the posters and print them for their records. They do not have to post them in their home or vehicle.
Does a construction company have to post the posters at every job site or just in the construction office?
The key consideration is where the employees report for work. If your employees report to a central office, posting in the office is fine. If they report to a job shack, post them there. You may want to do both as the posters are free. You are not required to post them in a truck.
I have a very small office in Washington State and one employee. Do I have to post the posters in my Washington State office?
Yes. If you have a business location in Washington State and one or more employees works from that location, the law requires you to post the posters there, in a place where the employees can see and read them.
Am I required to post the Spanish portion of the posters?
There is no requirement to post the Spanish portion of the posters. However, if you have Spanish-speaking employees — even if they speak English — we encourage you to post both the English and Spanish information.
Do the posters from L&I meet the requirements for other state and federal laws or do we have to post additional posters?
L&Is Job Safety and Health Law poster takes the place of the federal OSHA Workplace Poster. For all others, employers must post both state and federal posters.
Is there a poster on the Washington minimum wage?
No. Minimum wage information is on the L&I website at www.Lni.wa.gov/WorkplaceRights/Wages/Minimum. There is a required federal minimum wage poster (see Question 6 for the link). Although Washington employers are required to display the federal poster, they are required to pay the higher Washington minimum wage.
We have a sales representative working in Washington State but our office is in another state. Do we need to post the Washington State posters in our office?
No. You should provide your employee in Washington State with copies of the posters. (See No. 2.)
Is a business that does not have employees required to post the L&I posters?
No. However, if you received posters from L&I and you do not have employees, you may want to call 360-902-4817 to make certain your business information with us is correct. Our records may indicate that you do have employees.
What are the rules for where to post the required posters?
Post them where they can easily be seen and read by employees and keep them in good condition. Areas where you might consider posting the posters include the employee break room, employee bulletin board, or the area where time cards are kept. The inside of a closet door or an area where employees have limited access would not be good choices.
What are the titles and document numbers for L&Is required posters?

What wireless USB network adapter for Xenialpup?
Subject description: I need one that will be recognized
I have been running xenialpup lately. I have it installed on several desk top computers with hard wired lan cards.
Now the problem is I bought a dell inspiration 11 toy. First thing I did was try to run it with windows after several years of puppy. I hated it and my wife did too.
So I read how to start the computer with no hard drive using a usb stick. Then i reformatted whatever that drive thing the Dell had on it.. At least now I can use it for storing files.
It runs pretty good as best I can tell. I managed to get the basic Internet network to run off a hardwire to usb adapter. Now I have to get a wireless usb adapter to work or the confounded thing.
I'm the 75year old grandfather everyone makes fun of, but in my case they have good reason to do so. I have tried to install an adapter with an accompanying linux driver disk, but I cant get the thing to turn into a pet file. The puppy genie doesn't want to make my mind clear again.
So here is what I need to know ' Can I buy a usb wireless network adapter. One that has the driver on the list of 'load' list. I have to buy one anyway, and I'm about about doing things the easiest way possible these days, so If you could just give the the name of an easy adapter, you could make a friend for life. I'm sure there is one, but the google god wont give up the name. Thanks for any help you can give me. old charlie

Hallo, DeaconDog.
I think I can help you out with this one, old son. I run Xenial myself, amongst many other Pups....and what I use on my old Dell lappie (an original 1100 from 2002!) is one of these:-
I can guarantee this'll work with Xenialpup. It uses the old favourite Realtek RTL8192cu chip, which has been in the kernel for a long time.....and Xenial's kernel has the driver for this one built-in. It should be recognised straight-away.
It's a wee bit pricier than many of the Far Eastern 'el cheapos' out there, but most of those use weird drivers that only work with Windows. This one will definitely work with Pup. You can have a read of a mini-review I did of it in the 'Hardware:Networking:Wireless' section, here:-
Hope that's of some use.

What exact version of Xenialpup??????????????????
dell inspiration 11
I will guess it is a dell inspiration 11 3000
That laptop should have a WIFI adapter built in.
You should not need to add one.
Just need to get the internal one working.
First look for a key or switch that turns wifi on/off.
First time booting Puppy does not automatically turn laptop wifi on if they have such a switch.
I will assume you have a wifi signal, that can be recieved, to provide network connection.
Boot Xenialpup.
Look for the wifi on/off switch or key and turn it on.
menu->Setup->Internet Connection Wizard->Wired or wireless LAN->Network Wizard
Network Wizard wireless connection steps.
1. Select Network Wizard
2. Select wlan0 (your network card may have a different description)
3. Select Wireless in the Configure wireless network box.
4. Select Scan and your ESSID should come up.
5. Select your ESSID and OK
6. Give a name to your profile. It should already be what you selected in step 5.
7. Encryption. Most people use WPA/TKIP - select it or WPA2.
8. A box will open for you to write the WPA password. It is called a Shared Key. Enter the password.
9. Leave the other boxes as they are. Rarely do these need adjustment.
9. Select Save
10. Select Use This Profile
11. A box will appear showing Puppy trying to connect
12. A box will come up "REPORT ON TEST 0f wlan0CONNECTION"
13. Select Auto DHCP in the Configure interface box and it will go through a handshake routine. and declare itself successful
14. Select done
If something does not work.
What step?
You do what?
You see what?
Also make sure your system's time zone setting is correct - if not, many website's certificates then act as if they are expired, and the webpage won't display.
If you are using Xenialpup 7.5 the 32bit version. It is missing a few wifi firmware drivers.
So if it is not seeing the hardware, there is a pet to install them.
613 Time(s)
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Post subject: Thanks
Subject description: a thank you
I read your reply and if my mind were sharp, I'm sure i could do this thing. At this point in my life I'm going to try the plug in adapter, before I take the long involved route' but thank you a lot. Your instruction sound nice and detailed, but I know my mind isn't clear enough these days.
I have an adapter on the way from China, by way of California, I'll try it first. Then if it fails, I'll give your method a try. Its at is a Realtek ordered before I got the first reply. I did some more research and found the driver for it was listed on the network load page so I'm hopeful
Just so you know I got so desperate and frustrated I called a local Office Geek squad to ask them to take a look at the computer. I said Puppy Linux and they ran from the room screaming. So I ask you what kind of Geeks are they.
The equipment built in is a network controller intel corp wireless 3165
I think I removed the driver when I formatted the whatever passes for a harddrive. Maybe I won't need to go forward.

okay let me give you some facts its a dell inspiron 11-3162
celetron cpu 3060
the internall emmc drive is a hynix 32 gb system
memory is 2048mb
ddr3L bios
recovery from the harddrive enabled
firmware tpm enabled
boot list option id legacy
Linux kernel is (I686) 4,4,95
addl kernels
davicom dm96xx 10/100 ethrnet devices I had to find and load the dm9601 driver for it to work with my usb adapter for the hard wire net
no usb under kernels
pci devices
network controller intel wireless 3165 (rev 79)
two usb hubs present
Input devices
Dell wireless hot keys
network interfaces.
Lo ip add 127.0.0.
tunlo empty
What did I do. I tried to turn the wifi on even though I said i wouldn't try it. My curiosity got the best of me.
First I found the hot key for and on and off switch.
Then I went into the bios several time before the computer started. I also tried the set up page before the computer started but I could find no switch. If you have a clue i'd be happy to know about it.
I do have the hardwire internet working with a hardwire from the belkin router to the usb of the Dell. I guess you were right the wifi shows up nowhere it isn't turned on I guess . or maybe I have to find the right driver to load like i did for the wired network.
Thanks for any help I have to admit that it is fun, since I have nothing to do all day long.

Always, always, always tell us this basic info!!!!!
What exact version of Puppy Linux.
Thanks for the computer spec info!
That always helps!!!!!
Nothing to do in the bios to get it working, unless you see some option to enable or disable wifi.
Boot Xenialpup.
menu->Setup->Internet Connection Wizard->Wired or wireless LAN->Network Wizard
Does it show a wlan0 for an interface device??????
If yes, it is working.
You just have to do the setup in the network wizard.
If no wlan0.
D0 the on/off combo keys, to turn it on, and check again for wlan0.
Dell manual says:
keys turn wifi off/on
(may also have a light that comes on and off to indicate wifi is on or off)
Just be slow and take the steps one at a time.
If something does not work.
What step?

The intel 3165 wireless card will work in xenial, the driver is built into the kernel (iwlwifi). Xenial may not have required
included for the intel 3165 card.
Ensure that wifi switch is in 'ON'. The following command will show if wifi is ON or BLOCKED
# rfkill list
0: phy0: wlan
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
If it is switched off, it will appear as Hard blocked : yes
In a Terminal: (Copy and paste following command)
dmesg | grep wifi
This command will show what is occurring when firmware is being attempted to be loaded.

Post subject: you guiys are awsome
Subject description: a thank you
I got that toy up and running. I want to thank you both. It was a bit of pure luck but you kept me plugging away.
Just in case anyone else runs into this I ordered a couple of usb adapters before coming here for advice. One adapter proved too complicated for my feeble mind. I was about to toss this dell nightmare when the first answer came in. His answerer convince me by explaining that he had one that worked. so I ordered the one he recommended.
So while I waited I persevered I tried to find the on off switch, but alas I failed miserably. I did learn a few thing in the process thanks to my second answer. I did and do appreciate that. Knowledge is power ie teach a man to fish.
Then this morning I got the second adapter it still isn't the one I was recommended. It was a realtek and it worked perfectly right out of the box. My advice to anyone else with the same problems is stay at it. Don't give up, you are better than the geek squad from office depot I promise.
Thanks to you all. And a big atta boy.

Hi, DeaconDog.
Sorry about that! Rather than link you to the NetGear page for that adapter, I should have given you a link to an Amazon or eBay page where you could have just ordered it straight-off.
My apologies.
But, as you've found, the one you did get
work. That's great! Getting on-line is often a major hurdle with many laptops, which by their very nature do need to be 'portable' (and that, of course, means a wifi connection).
Once that's achieved, the rest as they say, just follows automatically. You're now 'connected', so.....enjoy using Puppy!

ROCKFORD — Somewhere under that pile lay Jacob Voyles, who was dog-piled by his teammates after pitching Hononegah to a 10-0 victory over top-seeded East in the Guilford Class 4A baseball regional Saturday.
"It didn't feel really nice, but it was worth it," said Voyles, who held East to three hits and struck out 10 in the five-inning win.
No area sports team has been more open through the years about valuing postseason runs over conference titles than Hononegah's baseball team, and the Indians have backed up their words. This is the third straight year the Indians beat a NIC-10 team that finished ahead of them in the conference in the regional finals.
"If you put all your emphasis on the conference season, what is there once the conference season is done?" coach Matt Simpson said. "We realize the last team that's playing is the one people are going to remember that year from the conference."
Alec Pena's two-run double highlighted Hononegah's three-run second inning. Pena also hit an RBI double in the two-run third and was intentionally walked and scored in the four-run fifth. All his highlights were accompanied by cries of "Mr. Saturday" from a Hononegah fan.
"I started off slow in the season and one Saturday I just ripped the heck out of the ball," Pena explained. "Ever since, I've been hitting the ball better and better. The bat felt great in my hands today, but our whole team hit great. We were hitting the ball everywhere."
NIC-10 runner-up East (25-9, 14-4) had its best season in 18 years, but flopped in its two biggest games, getting drubbed by Boylan when it had a chance to tie for the NIC-10 title and getting 10-runned in five innings Saturday.
"This hurts, but it's baseball," said Wes Strayer, who had two of East's three hits. "We had a great season, the first 20-win season for East in a long time. We had a lot of great accomplishments, but we just couldn't win the big one."
Hononegah (24-11, 13-5) won its seventh regional title in eight years and now plays at 6:30 Wednesday in McHenry in search of its first sectional title.
"We've struggled at sectionals, but keep giving us opportunities," Simpson said. "We'll break through at some point."

That's The Way I Like It
Rot-Weiss Oberhausen 3-0 Arminia Bielefeld (19:11:10)
FC St Pauli 1-1 Wolfsburg (21:11:10)
Andy Hudson and Ed Barrett continue their European Football Weekend in Germany by popping into a game at Oberhausen coupled with a trip to see the Rebels Choice, FC St Pauli. Pull up a chair as we enter Huddo's world:
Saturday evening and after Bochum we arrived back in Dortmund in time to watch Leverkusen v Bayern. At last, the first part of the weekend that hadn't seen me rushing about. I had arrived at Weeze airport on Friday afternoon and knew that if I was quick then I'd make the Rot-Weiss Oberhausen match. A snap decision to jump off the bus in Duisburg was rewarded with a 5 minute train ride to Oberhausen instead of the 25 minute journey if I'd remained sitting to the next stop in Essen. With time against me and no research being undertaken other than a quick Twitter message to our EFW Editor, I bypassed the fans drinking outside of the train station and jumped into a taxi enquiring "fussball stadion bitte" of the driver who struggled to understand my accent.
Jumping out at the Niederrheinstadion I bought my ticket (only €9.50 for a German Bundesliga.2 team; when will English clubs halt their greedy ticket pricing policy?), entered the stadium, grabbed a beer and took my place on the terracing behind the goal just in time to hear "Who Let The Dogs Out?" accompanied by the club mascot, an oversized mutt, lapping up a lap of honour. The Oberhausen and Arminia Bielefeld players emerged from the tunnel and the home Ultra' group turned their section into a blanket of red with their flares. Unfortunately for me, this appeared to be merely a flirtation with a great atmosphere. The stadium is quite old school in English terms apart from one thing: an athletics track which runs around the pitch, which in German terms makes it very old school as many stadiums have since removed the offending athletics aid. Any singing from either set of fans failed to make it across the lanes and despite the efforts of two drunken fans in front of me, who continuously tried to start singing but failed to co-ordinate their songs together, the noise remained on the wrong side of quiet for me. Even as the home side took the lead, after only two minutes, the celebrations were slightly muted despite the goal being cleverly worked and hammered in from just outside of the box. Oberhausen piled on the pressure against a very poor Bielefeld team and had a two goal cushion after twenty minutes when the Bielefeld defence decided that they couldn't be bothered with any of that marking malarkey and allowed a free header in the six yard box.
Flares: yes. Flags: yes. Terracing: yes, yes. Athletics track: oh.
Fussball bitte
Grabbing another beer from the stall just behind me, and politely accepting another cigarette from the steaming-drunk guy on my left, I settled for the second half which continued with Oberhausen well on top. Their danger man, the once highly rated Nigerian Moses Lamidi, captured a well deserved third goal with minutes remaining, catching the static away defence out of position again to roll the ball across the 'keeper into the net. One person missed this goal. A few minutes earlier I heard raised voices at the beer stand and two guys were arguing over who was first in the queue. Both then got served at the same time, off two different girls, and proceeded to throw their beer over the other and follow up with a few punches. The watching Polizei were straight in and after fending off advances from friends of the protagonists they deposited one back on the terraces and the other outside the stadium.
Bielefeld were involved in the 1971 Bundesliga bribery scandal; they might have to summon the 'spirit' of that season if they are to avoid relegation this year. Oberhausen, seemingly the brother of Cliftonville FC if their club badge and kit is anything to go by, could start looking up the table and not down after this performance. My immediate future was in a Dortmund pub, which is where we also headed after the Bochum match on Saturday before joining some of Ed's friends at a party.
Who could get bored of this wonderful old scoreboard though? If only the individual bulbs lit up to to reveal a players face (imagine that - Ed.).
There is a God.
Knowing that we had to catch a train at 7am on Sunday in order to meet up with the Sankt Pauli Mafia fans' coach, we really should have started drinking a little later on Saturday evening. But then we would have looked out of place when everyone was chucking back bottle after bottle of pilsner lager. I went as Eddie Murphy by virtue of that being the first name appearing in my head when I was asked what my fancy dress was supposed to be (I turned up in a grey hoody and a leather jacket alongside Ed who is obviously well versed in wearing fancy dress and arrived as The Dude from The Big Lebowski). After a long discussion with He-Man about Borussia Dortmund, and a promise to go to a future match with him, we staggered off some time after 6am for the long journey north to Hamburg.
Being both drunk and tired the journey was arduous. Even with bottles of beer available for €1 I found drinking them to be difficult and I wasn't alone with my slow drinking. I've travelled on supporter club coaches in England before and the mantra is smuggle as much beer on as you can, drink it as quickly as you can and then dump the evidence as soon as possible. With such a relaxed vibe onboard, and talk of politics and football, the drinking took a back seat all round with the only activity completed with any speed being a smoke whenever the coach stopped anywhere.
We arrived at Millerntor with just over two hours to go until kick-off. I had expected to be heading straight to a bar like my previous pre-match St Pauli experience but today was different. The St Pauli fans are a special bunch, as most German fans are, and with their promotion to the Bundesliga, coupled with a relatively low stadium capacity of around 24,000, a new problem has been presented: ticket touts exploiting the normal fan in order to make some cash. Tickets are at a premium in Hamburg and everyone is eager to watch the boys in brown. Why should others make money off these fans? A demonstration against the touts was organised and this seemed a much better use of my time than getting destroying my newly acquired soberness in the Jolly Roger. With a stack of pre-prepared signs provided, one side displaying 'tickets for sale' and the other displaying 'I need a ticket', we set off through the funfair that sits alongside the stadium and headed for the touts' favoured stamping ground. Leaflets were distributed to passers-by and cars navigating through the throng found leaflets attached to their back windscreen wipers. I never did see any touts before the match but I was assured that they would have been there; too embarrassed to pop their heads up and exploit the fan who just wanted to watch some football.
Our tickets were in the area popular with the Ultra' Sankt Pauli, behind the goal in the Südkurve. In order to get a decent spot you have to get in early and so we made our way in an hour before kick-off and entered the already packed section of terracing. The Capos started just before the teams emerged for the start of the match, their megaphones gently directing the enthusiastic crowd towards another song. Any individual let-up in singing was noticed by our Capo who would fix an encouraging stare on that person and drive them into a roar. As I pogoed around the terraces, focused on any German songs so that I didn't let down any of my neighbours with a lack of noise, I found my throat begin to strain under the vocal pressure. But I didn't care – standing on that piece of concrete I had proper football. The flags lapped across the top of my head; arms on either side linked mine; the songs came, varied and quickly; the whole stadium was singing; and then Markus Thorandt scored for FC St Pauli from a corner. We went wild.
A quick snap, and then a pogo and a hundred songs and our work here is done.
The hand of God.
Wolfsburg, under Steve McClaren, haven't set the Bundesliga alight this year, despite having one of the world's most sought after forwards in Edin Dzeko. They were unimaginative and lacked any spark for vast periods of the match. They equalised after 54 minutes when Dzeko, receiving a pass from ex-Werder and Juve player Diego, scored from close-range with his only clear chance of the day. The Bosnian superstar said afterwards that the team "have higher ambitions, we have 15 points from 13 games. We will have to fight on" and McClaren will surely hope that he can motivate his players to perform much better if they are to avoid a lower table finish this season.
The St Pauli crowd sensed that they were more likely to grab a winner than the visitors and the noise increased during the final quarter of the game. Fabian Boll, perhaps the only player in one of Europe's elite leagues who combines a playing career with a job as a police officer, almost scored a St Pauli winner but amidst a huge "ooooooh" from the crowd the 'keeper grabbed the ball at the second opportunity. Afterwards we made our way back to the coach and caught up with the main organiser of Football Supporters Europe who summed up the mood of everyone onboard when she asked "we should have won that; how didn't we win that?". A film dubbed in German was playing loudly on the bus as we headed back to the Ruhr and I struggled to sleep due to one song playing over-and-over in my head: "'cause we support Sankt Pauli, Sankt Pauli, Sankt Pauli and that's the way we like it, we like it, we like it".
We follow.

Gunmen on Sunday freed most of the Pakistani villagers they had kidnapped from a hashish festival in the remote mountainous northwest, a government official said.
The gunmen, suspected to be Taliban, raided the festival on Saturday and seized around 100 men. Around 40 were released that day, and most of the rest on Sunday, the official said.The official asked for anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media and negotiations for the remaining captives' release were continuing.
Seven men were still believed to be held. The raid took place on the border between Khyber and Orakzai, two tribal regions in northwest Pakistan that border Afghanistan. Initial reports suggested the men may have been seized because they supported the government against the Taliban. But local media reported that the men had been attending a hashish festival, which local channels described as a gathering where men came together to smoke and sell large quantities of hashish. Large quantities of the drug were also seized, local television reported.
The Taliban insurgents have been fighting to overthrow the government and impose a strict form of Islamic law on Pakistan, a nuclear-armed nation of 180 million people. They are officially against the drug trade, although many commanders are known to tax and smuggle narcotics such as hashish and opium.

20-Minute Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup
As promised, here is your second chicken enchilada soup recipe in one week!
For those of you who missed Monday's post on Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Soup, I mentioned that our Gimme Some Oven Facebook seemed split down the middle when I asked whether they would like a slow cooker or 20-minute version of this soup. So I decided to make both! Although to "cheese" things up a bit, I based the 20-minute version off of the chicken enchilada soup I happen to adore at Chili's.
Yes, I admit it, I love Chili's. When I was in high school, Chili's was the first restaurant "hangout" my friends chose once we got our drivers licenses and realized we could eat bottomless chips and salsa for (back then) just $2. Then in my early twenties, Chili's happened to be right around the corner from the Sunday night church I attended, and all of the hipsters piled in the booths and hung around until midnight to close out the week. And now — my friends all totally judge me for loving Chili's, so I have made it a tradition to very happily eat at one of those mini-Chili's whenever I see one in an airport, where I order chicken enchilada soup and a margarita (a must before long flights) and eat chips and salsa to my heart's content.
Some things never change…
…including this soup. I learned how to make a copycat version of it back in college, and still enjoy cooking it to this day. Although I admit I have made a few tweaks to the recipe over the years, such as replacing Velveeta with real cheese. Here's how I make it!
The two things about the Chili's version of chicken enchilada soup that separates it from all others is that it is thick and it is cheesy.
The thickness is due to using masa harina, a corn flour that is available in any grocery store. (Just look for it in the flour section.) It's the same flour that is used to make corn tortillas, and it gives the soup a velvety thickness as well as some nice corn flavor.
As I mentioned above, I'm pretty sure (although not positive) that the Chili's version of this soup uses some sort of processed cheese like Velveeta. But I much prefer to use regular sharp (or extra sharp) cheddar. As with anytime you melt cheese in a soup, be sure to buy the block of cheese and then grate it yourself just before using it, because the pre-shredded stuff has a coating on it that doesn't melt as well.
If you have the time, I also highly recommend making my homemade red enchilada sauce for this soup. It's also quick and easy to make, and it is packed with my favorite enchilada seasonings. But if you're in a hurry, the canned stuff will also work. (You may just want to add in an extra 1/2 or 1 teaspoon of chili powder if you use the canned sauce, as its flavor isn't quite as strong.)
I also enjoy adding in some black beans, fire-roasted diced tomatoes and chopped green chiles to my chicken enchilada soup for substance. But if you want to go the chili's route, they pretty much just have the thick broth + chicken, which also works.
Once you mix up your soup base, just stir in the shredded cheese one handful at a time. And then this thick and cheesy soup is ready to serve!
You can either serve it plain…
…or load it up with all kinds of toppings. Whatever sounds good.
And for old time's sake, I have to also recommend serving it with some good chips and salsa. Because…just because. :)
20-Minute Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup
This delicious chicken enchilada soup is thick, cheesy, and ready to go (once your ingredients are prepped!) in just 20 minutes!
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup diced white onion (about 1 small white onion)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup masa harina (corn flour)
- 3 cups chicken stock
- 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
- 1 1/4 cups (or 1 10-ounce can) red enchilada sauce, homemade or store-bought*
- 1 (14-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juices (I prefer fire-roasted)
- 1 (4-ounce) can chopped green chiles
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, freshly grated
- 1 teaspoon salt, or more/less to taste
- optional toppings: tortilla chips/strips, diced/sliced avocado, grated cheese, sour cream, chopped fresh cilantro, and/or pico de gallo
- Heat the oil in a large stock over medium-high heat. (To save time, peel and dice the onion for the minute or so that the oil heats.) Add the onion and saute for 5 minutes, or until cooked and translucent. Add the garilc and saute for an additional minute until fragrant. Stir in the masa harina and cook for an additional minute.
- Pour in half of the chicken stock, and stir until completely combined. Add in the remainder of the chicken stock, and stir to combine. Immediately add in the chicken, enchilada sauce, black beans, tomatoes, green chiles, salt and cumin, and stir until combined. Continue stirring occasionally until the mixture reaches a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally so that the soup does not stick to the bottom of the pan. Then stir in the cheese, one handful at a time, until combined. Taste, and season the soup to taste with salt.
- Serve the soup warm with desired toppings.

I bought Masa Harina a year or more ago, just freeze it.
I also have used the torn up corn tortillas in a pinch when I didn't have any masa on hand but if you ever do decide to go for the big bag of masa, homemade corn tortillas are super easy and a great way to use it. :) Plus it does keep in the freezer like other reviewer mentioned.

Does this recipe store well? Will it still be good served the next day heated in a microwave oven?
