U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal said Tuesday that in the aftermath of the school shooting in Newtown he will introduce a bill to require background checks on people buying gun ammunition.
The government has a background-check system for gun purchases but not for ammunition, even though it is illegal to sell both firearms and ammunition to felons, fugitives, drug addicts, the mentally ill and perpetrators of domestic violence.
Ammunition is the "black hole of gun violence prevention," said Blumenthal, D-Conn., because under current law there is virtually no way to enforce the prohibition.
"A felon who walks into a store to buy ammunition can load an entire shopping cart, pay and walk out, no questions asked, because there are no background checks," he said in a press conference call.
Blumenthal said that after the Dec. 14 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, he spoke with many people in Newtown and throughout the state about gun violence and devised a set of proposals to introduce in the coming weeks.
The other bills will focus on banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, closing a loophole that allows the private sale of guns without background checks, and addressing the relationship between mental health issues and gun violence, Blumenthal said.
In addition to requiring ammunition buyers to undergo an instant background check in the FBI's national database, the Ammunition Background Check Act of 2013 would require sellers of ammunition to notify law enforcement officials when someone buys more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition at once or within five days, or when a large quantity of ammunition is stolen.
Teflon-coated bullets and incendiary ammunition would be banned by the bill.
Several members of the new Congress have introduced measures to combat gun violence.
Blumenthal was asked during the conference call whether it would make more sense to wait for the administration to come up with a plan and make one concerted push. Blumenthal said his bill does not preclude a unified effort and it could be included as part of a larger initiative.
The system for background checks is in place and most background checks can be done in about 30 seconds, he said.
"I'm incredibly hopeful that a common sense enforcement tool like this one will have traction and success," Blumenthal said. "And maybe, most importantly, I regard it as keeping faith with the people in Newtown and across Connecticut, people who were directly affected by this horrific tragedy."

I would just like to let you know how impressed I have been with the Avid Nano DLS system. The ease of use with the disposable sample holders is so much better than anything I have worked with, and the 5μl sample size is a great benefit too. Also, the data analysis is simple and robust. In the past I would think twice before using DLS, but now I routinely examine my samples with the Avid Nano. Great little machine!

Assistant Professor of Fine Art Matthew Groves will exhibit a solo exhibition entitled "Universal Statuary" at the Chicago Cultural Center in fall 2013. Click here to view some of his work exhibited.
Universal Statuary is a new body of work by the Chicago based artist and educator. Collectively, these figurative ceramic sculptures bear witness to Groves artistic journey. Singularly, they do not represent or illustrate any one particular moment or event, rather they interweave many significant milieus, associations and obsessions. The product of a deep personal exploration and commitment to his medium, the work is visually dynamic, technically innovative and unique in concept, demonstrating extremes of effort and engagement with ceramics. Groves brings to his process a broad knowledge of historical art forms, such as Japanese Kamakura sculpture, and whilst the work incorporates recognizable components which have universal appeal, the title of the exhibition "Universal Statuary" is more a direct reference to the Chicago based corporation of the same name, where Groves worked as a commercial sculptor in the Product Research and Design department in the in the late 1990's. Groves hopes his sculptures can never be described or interpreted in any strict or absolute terms. It is Groves' intention that the meaning of the work should be dependent upon the viewers own poetic imaginings, and the experience of viewing and interpreting the work should factor into the larger creative experience of a viewers life.
What motivated you to create the work for your most recent exhibition?
I make art in order to reevaluate everything I think I know about myself and my relationship to the world. As an immigrant, I ask, "Why am I here? How should I live? What is my purpose?" My life and my art are informed by these kinds of deep personal inquiries and without any opportunity to make art, I have felt a strong loss of direction. I am inspired by, and seek to create, work which exhibits both great skill and great imagination. I am particularly interested in art which transcend its materiality, in objects which aspire to the creation of some sort of accord between the human spirit and our terrestrial existence.
What are the most challenging and most rewarding aspects of creating new work?
On the down side, overcoming the fear of failure and the possibility of rejection. Failure to meet my own expectations in terms of advancing my technique and my personal vision, that the work will be unrecognizable and derivative, that I am wasting my time and energy on something of no value to others. The contradictory fear that someone or something might come along and take away the hard won opportunity, and an apprehension that I am sacrificing close personal relationships in order to create time in the studio.
On the up side, I am fulfilling a childhood dream of moving towards the creation of original and unique objects which are recognizable (i.e. part of a larger continuum of objects made and being made), closing the gap between myself and artists whose work I have admired since childhood. Another rewarding aspect is the pleasure of the act of making, the intimate knowledge of the process gained, and the insights it gives into understanding and interpreting cultural artifacts, their use and their manufacture. Also, setting an example for my son to follow his heart and his passion.
How does your creative approach differ in putting together a solo exhibition rather than a collaborative exhibition?
My creative approach is always the same because I see all visual arts exhibitions requiring a number of people pulling together behind the scenes. It is also my experience that, very often, visual arts exhibitions are "themed,", putting forward a position or point of view, and I apply to group exhibitions whose topic is sympathetic to my own thinking and process. I don't change my creative approach to match the theme in other words.
When creating solo exhibitions, I choose titles and write statements which relate to some common aspect of my work, usually something which I am preoccupied with or which is particularly appropriate to the venue space and the audience, and regardless of the venue or the type of exhibition, I always submit work which is new to me or my audience. I try to exhibit my best, most accomplished work to date, which offers a new perspective on my thinking and process, and which hopefully asks new questions and raises fresh perspectives on the medium.
How does your recent work in the studio intersect with your career as a fine arts instructor?
I welcome this opportunity for my students to see my work in a professional cultural context, and to engage me in the same sorts of external, objective, and positive critical dialogue which I subject them to at Loyola University Chicago every day. Hopefully, the exhibition will reinforce in the minds of our student body, and in the eyes of our administration, that I am engaged in living research and beneficial personal growth. It will help confound my least favorite idiom (composed by George Bernard Shaw in his play 'Man and Superman'); "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach." It will demonstrate my expertise, my commitment to deepening personal understanding of the value and meaning of art, and I sincerely hope it will inspire our students to continue to want to engage in the artistic process.
What are the most challenging and most rewarding aspects of teaching?
Figuring out who my audience is, what they need from the experience, and what is most essential for them to understand, from my perspective, given the time and resources available. It is very difficult deciding what are the best methods to present and measure artistic knowledge, but I am fortunate to have at least one willing partner, in the form of clay. Humans have been shaping it into all sorts of things, utilitarian, symbolic, ritualistic and artistic for over 30,000 years, and there are countless entry points into the medium, regardless of an audience's interest, experience, or level of engagement. Most people are more connected to ceramics that they know and it is wonderful to be able to demonstrate how.

Pretoria — Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Minister Richard Baloyi says he will work closely with the Western Cape province to investigate allegations raised by Swellendam residents during a community meeting at the weekend.
Baloyi and Western Cape MEC for Local Government, Anton Bredell, visited Swellendam to obtain first-hand information from the community about problems that may have led to the recent protests in the area.
Residents embarked on fierce protests last week which turned into a rampage marked by the looting of local shops and damage to private property.
They said corruption in the municipality and the removal of the acting municipal manager were the primary reasons for the violent protests.
During the meeting at the weekend, Baloyi emphasised that government was willing to listen to challenges that were facing Swellendam and appealed to the community to be patient and give government a chance to resolve them.
"We understand the community's frustration and anger. However, people must exercise their right to protest peacefully and refrain from violence and damaging property," said Baloyi.

Tampa, Fla. (October 27, 2006) – Jessica Lebohner (Fr., Seminole, Fla.) scored the game-winning goal in the 78th minute to propel the Saint Leo University women's soccer team (14-2-1) to a 1-0 win over Nova Southeastern University (11-3-2) in the Sunshine State Conference Tournament Semifinals on Friday at Tampa's Pepin Stadium.
The Lions stretched their winning streak to seven matches, and won by the 1-0 scoreline for the third straight match. Saint Leo will now face top-seeded Tampa in Sunday's SSC Tournament Final at 1:00 p.m.
Lebohner's second goal of the season came after the two sides played an even match during the first half and for the opening 33 minutes of the second. Hard work on the right by SLU freshman midfielder Hannah Beard (Liverpool, England) eventually saw the ball bounce free to Bridget Godwin (So., Ocean Springs, Miss.).
Godwin's cross deflected off the crossbar and directly to teammate Evelina Viiri (So., Heby, Sweden). Viiri played a square ball to an unmarked Lebohner, who fired into an empty net for the eventual game-winner.
Saint Leo kept the Sharks at bay through the closing minutes, and allowed just two shots on target throughout the entire match. The Lions kept a clean sheet for the fourth consecutive match and the 12th time this season.
Sunday's Championship will be broadcast live on the Internet via the Saint Leo Athletics Audiocast Network. Visit SaintLeoLions.com for "Listen Live" links and schedule information.

Originally written on Fox Sports Arizona | Last updated 11/12/12
PHOENIX The Los Angeles Lakers have hired their next ring master in a bracing move that resonates throughout the Arizona desert. By choosing Mike DAntoni instead of Phil Zen Master Jackson, the despised Lakers have found a key that could unlock the combustible talents of the greatest Phoenix Sun of em all. Now were all left to wonder if Suns owner Robert Sarver would have facilitated Steve Nashs escape to a playoff contender had he known the Lakers also would end up with the coach who became Nashs ultimate enabler. But rather than attempting to define the level of teeth gnashing that will occur in Phoenix, lets look bigger picture at just how deadly another DAntoni-Nash alliance can be. When our Fourth of July reverie was disturbed by news that Nash had gone Hollywood (with the Suns help), a lot of Suns fans were excited. You know storm-the-castle excited. The level of disgust dipped a bit, however, when the locals remembered that Nash would be attempting to direct the Laker ...

As of late, I've been eating relatively poorly. No matter how hard I try to get on a health kick again! So, I decided to browse through some fun recipes on the Tone It Up blog and pinterest pages – AWESOME IDEAS. I somehow came across one similar to this idea, and since I was craving getting more filling, veggie-filled meals in, it was perfect.
Cauliflower Buffalo Bites
I began with a 5 inch head of cauliflower. A pretty decent size.
Cut it into 1 inch pieces and soak to cleanse.
Heat water to a boil with a vegetable steamer.
While the cauliflower is steaming (for about 15 minutes), I got the wing sauce ready. You can probably find a healthier option, but I figured this would work :).
You only need about two tablespoons since it spreads thin. I placed the desired amount into a bowl.
Finally, once the cauliflower is softer, place it on a dish and pour the bowl of sauce onto it evenly. I mixed mine around on the plate, of course.
That's it! You're ready to go! I was pretty surprised at how filling it was, but this is definitely a new favorite when I crave something like fast food :D.
How do you spice up your veggies?

In an effort to take my own advice, I would like to remind any and all that the ugliest win in the world is better than the prettiest defeat. Also, that wins are very difficult to find in this league, so the last thing you want to do is to get picky about how aesthetically pleasing to the eye a victory might be. But, wow. Nothing comes easy for your 2012 Dallas Cowboys. And they proved that by needing nearly 70 minutes to take down one of the least frightening teams in the entire league. At home. In a critical matchup. Before we get to the countless concerns that this team seems to have right now as they frantically prepare for their next nail-biter in 72 hours time, let's say something extremely complimentary about this crew under Jason Garrett: This team competes hard. I am not sure every reader will agree, but having watched many Cowboys teams over the years - some who played as hard as they could and some who looked like they picked their spots - I would like to report that th...

News media release 10th January 2012
Hyundai Motor America has introduced the all-new 2013 Veloster Turbo armed with 150 kW of peak power in a world debut at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS).
2013 Veloster Turbo highlights (exclusive Turbo features for U.S. market)
The 1.6-litre turbocharged GDI four-cylinder engine in the 2013 Veloster Turbo produces 150 kW @ 6000 rpm and 264 Nm of torque from 1750 – 4500 rpm with standard unleaded fuel. The Veloster Turbo is estimated to deliver 8.7 L/100km city and best-in-class 6.2 L/100km highway for manual transmission models. Hyundai's 1.6-litre Gamma turbocharged engine features a twin-scroll turbocharger that when combined with the GDI system, results in instantaneous power delivery.
Twin-scroll turbocharger designs have two exhaust gas inlets divided by split walls inside the turbine housing, with both gas passages controlled by a waste-gate. A twin-scroll turbo recovers more energy from the exhaust than a single-scroll turbocharger, thanks to a divided manifold. The twin-scroll design separates the cylinders whose exhaust gas pulses interfere with each other, resulting in improved pressure distribution in the exhaust ports, and a more efficient delivery of exhaust gas energy to the turbocharger's turbine. Another advantage is improved low-end torque and faster transient torque response.
The twin-scroll turbocharger design has several other advantages over traditional, single-scroll turbo charging systems, including:
Thanks to the integrated stainless-steel turbine housing with the exhaust manifold, not only is the weight and cost of the casting dramatically reduced, the durability of the turbine housing is also improved. In addition, heat energy recovery and thus turbo efficiency is significantly improved based on the fact that a traditional two-piece design effectively insulates some of the heat energy at the joint/gasket area.
By adapting the motor-driven electrical waste-gate, the boost pressure is precisely controlled. The back pressure is reduced when turbo boost is not necessary by opening the waste-gate, which improves fuel efficiency. During cold starts, the waste-gate remains open, which results in faster catalyst light-off for reduced exhaust emissions.
A GDI fuel delivery system contributes to improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions. This shorter, more direct path of fuel delivery allows for greater control of the fuel mixture at the optimum moment, thus improving efficiency. The fuel is injected by a camshaft-driven, high pressure pump operating at pressures up to 2175 psi. Direct injection also utilises a higher-than-normal 9.5 compression ratios, while achieving a best-in-class93.6 kW-per-litre. The piston heads are "dished" to increase combustion efficiency in the cylinder.
Veloster Turbo's unique design takes inspiration from a custom high-performance sport bike. Hyundai designers have removed the Veloster's trapezoidal centre exhaust and replaced it with two larger free flowing circular pipes and a new intake manifold allowing engineers to give the engine a more full-bodied sound. From a bigger, bolder hexagonal front grille, through to the sculpted side skirts and new dynamic rear bumper with prominent diffuser vents in the lower fascia.
SPORT-TUNED suspension
McPherson strut front suspension, coil springs, gas shock absorbers and a 24 mm diameter front stabiliser are fitted to all Veloster Turbo models. The rear suspension is a light-weight V-torsion beam, a Hyundai-first, with an integrated 23 mm stabiliser bar to allow bracing of the arms for greater stiffness and to further control body roll. The rear suspension uses monotube shock absorbers for ride comfort.
To handle the power enhancements and keep with Hyundai's commitment to making fuel efficient vehicles, Veloster Turbo is paired with a standard six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic transmission. Both transmissions were developed in house at Hyundai. The manual features a wider gear ratio spread (5.71 vs. 5.25) to handle the additional torque output. The high-revving turbo helps during acceleration, especially at highway speeds.
The Veloster Turbo is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel-mounted paddle-shifter controls rather than the naturally aspirated Vesloster's DCT. This is due to the increased torque output from the 1.6-litre Turbocharged-GDI engine. The gear ratio spread on the automatic transmission is slightly narrower than the DCT (6.0 vs. 6.38). A narrower spread maintains the engine in the power band when going from one gear to the other. The base Veloster's DCT is tuned for fuel efficiency and not for the performance feel needed for the Veloster Turbo.
The Veloster Turbo has a 265 centimetre wheelbase, while the Veloster Turbo is 3 centimetres longer and 15.2 centimetres widerthan the naturally aspirated Veloster.
All Velosters have an exceptional level of standard safety features highlighted by a Vehicle Stability Management (VSM) system, which optimally manages ESC (Electronic Stability Control) and the Motor-Driven electric Power Steering (MDPS).
VSM works to control two effects. The first is when a driver accelerates or brakes on a surface with varying grip (e.g. slippery on one side and dry on the other) and the vehicle wants to pull in one direction. VSM detects this condition and sends a signal to the MDPS to apply steering assist. VSM counters the pull and automatically provides up to eight Newton meters (Nm) of counter steering. VSM reacts the same way during sudden lane changes or fast cornering.
All Velosters feature six airbags—including dual front, front seat-mounted side-impact, and front and rear side curtain airbags.
Velosters feature a state-of-the-art braking package. The package includes four-wheel disc brakes and an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) including Brake Assist, to provide maximum braking force when a panic stop is detected, and Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), to automatically adjust the braking force to front and rear axles based on vehicle loading conditions.
Note: Specifications, features and options relate to the U.S. market Veloster Turbo. The naturally aspirated Veloster launches in Australia 12.02.12, whilst launch timing, specification and pricing of Australian Veloster turbo variants are yet to be confirmed.

I was inspired to write this post by a chef in New York. He was posting pictures on Facebook of a gnocchi he was making using lobster roe. The gnocchi was green, and after he boiled the pasta it turned an orange-y, red color. I questioned the prestigious and well-known chef and may have even gotten a little snarky: Surely, you mean tomalley? The tomalley is green and the roe is red!
Well, as it turns out, (sigh) I was wrong. The chef was using the lobster in raw form, and when the roe is removed from the raw lobster it is green and does in fact cook up red, the color that most of us are used to seeing it. Initially, I thought I should be a bit embarrassed of my blunder, but then realized that many of my fellow fishing friends did not realize that the raw lobster roe was green either. We don't often use the raw product. (If you're interested in trying raw lobster, you can check out Shuck's Maine Lobster)
Let's dissect a lobster, shall we? The lobster has a head; a body called the carapace; antennae; a tail; and some claws. Inside the lobster is reproductive parts, liver, muscle and poop. There are more scientific names, like chelipeds, but that's not important for what we're talking about. All of these parts of a lobster, in some form, are edible, but for the most part Mainers and the average consumer just steam lobsters and use the meat for lobster rolls or simply to dip in butter. There's nothing wrong with that because lobster is just so darn delicious!
The shells and bodies can be utilized to make seafood stock: just add the bodies and leftover shells to some water with a few onions, veggies, and garlic, then boil; strain the water, and you have stock! Sometimes, the bodies are given away by seafood markets because locals will take them for stock or to pick the tiny morsels of meat out for stews or stuffed fish. (This takes too much time for the market but picking seafood is a favorite past time of some local fishing community members.) I love when the "Free bodies. Bring your own bag," sign shows up in front of our local market. What must people think?
As I'm learning, even the sort of slimy parts on the inside of a lobster, both in raw and cooked form, can be used for other recipes such as gnocchi. In cooked form, the green stuff or the liver is often referred to as tomalley. Some local people like to eat this right out of the body, or will put it on toast. I've also seen recipes for tomalley bruschetta that look pretty delicious! The coral or roe or red bread is red in cooked form and some old-timers, locals, and more daring folks will eat this, too. (I tend to think it sounds a bit more appetizing in a gnocchi!) And, as I've learned, the roe is green in a raw form and can be removed from the uncooked lobster and used in various recipes.
Maine lobster is a sustainably harvested product, harvested by hard-working Maine fishermen from beautiful, quintessential Maine fishing villages. Maine lobster has a long, proud heritage and it is still a very proud and respected industry in this state, and all over the world. Maine lobster is absolutely delicious, though, I can't help but wonder who ate the first lobster and what made them make that decision? The lobster is not changing, but the way chefs are using the product is evolving, so even us fishing families are having to keep up with the new and exciting ways it is showing up on menus. So, no matter what form it takes, you can always rest assured that if you're ordering Maine lobster it's an excellent choice. And, if you need more proof, you can always come to Maine and check it out for yourself.

Many fungal infections, or mycoses, of humans and animals affect only the outer layers of skin, and although they are sometimes difficult to cure, they are not considered dangerous. Athlete's foot and ringworm are among the common superficial fungal infections. Fungal infections of the mucous membranes are caused primarily by Candida albicans (see candidiasis). It usually affects the mouth (see thrush) and the vaginal and anal regions.
The fungi that affect the deeper layers of skin and internal organs are capable of causing serious, often fatal illness. Sporotrichosis is an infection of farmers, horticulturists, and others who come into contact with plants or mud. The disease affects the skin and lymphatic system and, in rare cases, becomes disseminated. Blastomycosis is caused by a yeastlike fungus that reproduces by budding. The North American variety, caused by Blastomycosis dermatitidis, occurs more often in men and seems to be limited to the central and E United States and Canada. Wartlike lesions appear most often on the skin, sometimes spreading to the bones and other organs. The South American variety of blastomycosis is caused by B. brasiliensis. Chytridiomycosis, caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, is a deadly fungal skin infection in amphibians, which it kills by damaging to the animals' normally permeable skin, thus disrupting the transport of air and moisture.
Among the fungi that infect the deeper tissues is Coccidioides immitis, which causes coccidioidomycosis, sometimes called valley fever, a lung infection that is prevalent in the SW United States. Cryptococcosis is another fungus disease that may be localized in the lung or disseminated, especially to the central nervous system. It has a worldwide distribution, affecting men twice as often as women. The causative agent (Cryptococcus neoformans) has been isolated in pigeon excretions. Histoplasmosis, which is caused by spores of the fungal genus Histoplasma, is a severe infection that shows varied symptoms. In acute cases ulcers of the pharynx and enlargement of the liver and spleen are present. In other forms tubercularlike lesions of the lung occur. In its benign form no symptoms may be present.
Fungal infections sometimes follow the use of antibiotics, which kill nonpathogenic as well as pathogenic bacteria, thereby providing a free field in the body for fungal invasion. Opportunistic fungal infection occurs when a fungus enters a compromised host, as in the case of such diseases as AIDS. Treatment for fungal infections includes systemic antifungal agents, such as amphotericin B, fluconazole, and itraconazole, and agents usually used topically, such as clotrimazole (Lotrimin) and miconazole (Monistat).
Serious damage is done to crops each year by fungal infections of plants such as smuts, rusts, ergots, and mildews. Dutch elm disease, a disease that has seriously depleted the number of elm trees in the United States, is caused by the fungus Ceratostomella ulmi. Such diseases are usually fought with fungicides or by developing resistant plants. See also diseases of plants.
A fungal keratitis is an 'inflammation of the eye's cornea' (called keratitis) that results from infection by a fungal organism. Keratomycosis is the Latin terminology equivalent of fungal keratitis - it is the fungal infection of the cornea, the anterior part of the eye which covers the pupil. Those experiencing these symptoms are typically advised to immediately visit the appropriate eyecare professional.

Baked eggplant with Mozzarella
I wanted to find a recipe that uses our new terracotta bakeware, and this came out great. Plus, it uses fresh mozzarella -- one of my favorites. It's ligher than a traditional eggplant parmesan, but still has nice big flavors.
1 large eggplant
2-3 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion
1 4-6 oz mozzarella ball
2-3 tablespoons good quality tomoto sauce (I smashed 2 whole San Marzano tomatoes, plus a little juice)
Core the eggplant, and dice the eggplant meat. Mix the eggplant with 1-2 tbl olive oil, salt and pepper to taste.
Dice and saute the onion in 1 tbl olive oil. Add the diced eggplant and saute until soft.
Dice the mozzarella (there is an almost 1:1 ratio of eggplant to cheese) an add it to the eggplant and onion.
Put the cored eggplant halves in a terracotta dish, and brush the inside of the cored eggplant with olive oil. Add the cheese/eggplant stuffing. Top with tomatoes sauce (not too heavy) and put in a medium hot brick oven.
If your oven is too hot, you can cover the dish with foil.
The finished dish is brown on top and the eggplant is soft all the way through and the cheese is melted.

Wed 11/26 - Thanks to everyone who came out to the farm on Sunday to race, cheer or volunteer! We counted more than 500 racers (plus another 60+ kids and doggie racers), and from what we could tell everyone had a great time on and off the course. After last year's sunny and dry edition, the mud made its comeback in style and the rainstorm that moved in around Noon made for a true "belgian-style" November cross race. To get a taste of the grit and beauty of it all, check out the amazing action photos shot and posted by racers Matthew Lasala at Lasala Images and Jonathan Maus on BikePortland.org.
A big thanks to our title sponsor West End Bikes and
our other generous sponsors Specialized, Hopworks Urban Brewing, Showers Pass, Chris King, Bob's Red Mill, Icebreaker, Nossa Familia, Rip van Wafels, Rad Dogs, Gevenalle, and Larabar.
Also a major shout to Portland Design Works for putting on the much-enjoyed CX doggie dash. Last but not least, our heartfelt thanks to Don Kruger and everyone at Kruger's Farm for the great venue and their help in making it all happen!
Results for all categories and the winners of Sunday's raffle have been posted.
In 2015, Portland Racing will again organize three unique bike races at Kruger's Farm:
the Kruger's Kermesse CX Farm Crit & Bike Relay (Sun 5/17)
the Kruger's Kermesse... Encore Farm Crit (Sun 8/30), and
the 10th edition of the Kruger's Crossing Cyclocross Classic (tentatively Sun 11/22).
And of course, we hope you will make it out to the other popular Portland Racing events: the Portland Short Track Series (Mondays 6/1 through 7/27) and the Six Hours of Mount Hood (Sun 6/28).
So make sure to mark your calendars and start figuring out your winning winter training strategy... but first, time to relax and enjoy the holidays!

Race Flyer | Final Call-Up List | Updates | Results 2014 | Prizes
On Sunday November 23, West End Bikes and Portland Racing are bringing you the eight edition of the Kruger's Crossing Cyclocross Classic. This fun AND epic race - a longtime favorite with racers and spectators alike - will take place at Kruger's Farm, located in the beautiful countryside of Sauvie Island (only 20 minutes from downtown Portland!).
This will NOT be your usual cross race! Besides the challenges thrown at us by the November weather gods, you can expect a wild course that will lead you along rutted farm roads, through berry fields, pastures, a barn, past a free-range chicken coop, and a giant sow named Mathilda.
Check out the course map and the photos, videos and race reports of previous editions to get an idea what we are talking about!
In the morning, Kruger's Farm Market will greet racers with free Nossa Familia Coffee and, later in the day, their food stands will serve veggie chili, baked potatoes, hot soup, and a variety of sausages and other grilled goodies. Around noon, Hopworks Urban Brewery will come out to serve free samples of their much-acclaimed Abominable Winter Ale and some other HUB classics.
In good tradition, we'll lighten up a giant bonfire along the course to keep everyone warm and toasty, we'll have DJ-ed music (and continuous race announcing by Luciano), free kiddie races (presented by Islabikes), and throughout the day we will raffle off a ton of prizes, courtesy of our presenting sponsor West End Bikes and our other generous sponsors Specialized, Portland Design Works, Showers Pass, Nossa Familia Coffee, Hopworks Urban Brewery, Chris King, Bob's Red Mill, The Lumberyard, Icebreaker, Gevenalle, and Osmo Nutrition.
Last but not least, we'll stage another encore of the Doggie Dash CX World Championship, presented by Portland Design Works and benefiting The Pixie Project. This wild cross race - sans bikes - for your four-legged friends of all stripes and colors (lycra dog team kits strongly encouraged!) is a hoot for racers, dogs and spectators alike. And we'll raffle of a bunch of great prizes courtesy of Rad Dogs, among all participants of the dog races!

'The Walking Dead' Season 5: Will Rick lose a limb at Terminus?Add to Favorites | The Writers' Room
Warning: Spoilers for "The Walking Dead" comics are in this article.
In Robert Kirkman's "The Walking Dead" comics, Rick loses a hand. Just don't expect that same storyline to play out in the TV show.
"I like the fact that he lost his hand in the comic," Kirkman says in a clip from "The Writers' Room" on Comic Book Resources. "To be perfectly honest, the practical difficulties of having a guy who doesn't have a hand is extremely complicated in the comic and would be impossible in the show. For instance, in a recent issue, I think it's No. 122 or 123, Rick is standing on top of a truck. It would take him quite a while to climb on top of a truck with one hand, but we just show him standing on that truck. And you're reading that comic, and you're like, 'There he is on that truck.'"
He adds as a tease, "Yeah, but spoiler alert, he loses a hand in Season 5, so ..." To believe him or no to believe him, that is the question.
"The Writers' Room" airs Fridays on Sundance. "The Walking Dead" will return with Season 5 in October 2014.

OMG Madonna used the word "Gay"
You know the uptight gays and lesbians who are sitting at their computers watching Buzzfeed are so offended they will never buy another Madonna concert ticket again. She has went too far this time Madonna has crossed the line saying the outrageous word of gay. Does anyone not remember that Madonna is basically bi herself. She is basically a part of the gay community and she can freely say the word as she wants. If anyone has a problem with that then you obviously do not know what she has done for our community and I guarantee you would not have half the freedoms you do now if it weren't for Madonna helping bring about the gay culture across the WORLD. Her tours have helped open minds and free gays and lesbians worldwide and saved many lives.

They feel bad, so they found you these other deals to make up for it.
Select Local Merchants
The Louisville Game ShopRead MoreThe founders of Beach Tennis USA imported the volleyball-and-tennis hybrid sport from Aruba in 2005, bringing Americans of all ages and athletic abilities a fresh twist on beach-bound recreation. During the two-hour intro classes, instructors teach students how to bump, smack, or teleport de-pressurized tennis balls over lowered beach-volleyball type nets using nothing but stringless paddles. Like in volleyball and tennis, each team desperately attempts to keep the ball from hitting the ground on their side while using brute force and surreptitious bribery to convince the fast-moving orb to strike the opposing team's sandy surface. The gurus will impart valuable arm-swinging and sand-diving techniques for the first 30 minutes before letting pupils compete in match play for the remaining hour and a half.925 Baxter AveLouisville, KY US
C C Steepleton Co.Read MoreA maker of quality billiard tables since 1910, Steepleton's wide range of entertainment furniture keeps a lively rec room from curdling into a dreary fun dungeon, or fungeon. A dartboard ($80?$199) and a couple bar stools ($25?$700) create a cozy habitat for pet Irishmen, and corn-hole bags ($40) provide twice the backyard fun of beanbag tosses, mostly from the game's name. Homebody hustlers, meanwhile, can take home a pool table ($999?$7,000) and pair it with high-quality pool cues ($22?$500). Otherwise, soothe sore muscles or reheat leftovers in a hot tub ($3,000?$13,000) on brisk Kentucky nights. Steepleton's showroom also shows off a variety of basketball hoops, air-hockey and foosball tables, safe outdoor playsets ($1,400?$12,000), and even safer Springfree trampolines?whose hidden frame and soft edges protect rugrats from spring gouges, broken bones, and double-bounces that send them crashing into passing cell-phone satellites.282 North Hubbards LaneLouisville, KY US
Toys R UsRead MoreFor more than 60 years, Toys"R"Us has been helping kids be kids and grown-ups to revisit their childhoods by providing one of the largest selections of top-brand toys, electronics, games and everyday baby essentials. Founder, Charles Lazarus, revolutionized the toy business by modeling his stores after supermarkets, providing a variety of options to suit varying ages and interests and offering customers to help themselves and have fun in the process. Today, that sense of playfulness is evident at nearly 600 stores in the United States alone, including a flagship location in Times Square where kids are greeted by a 60-foot Ferris wheel, a 5-ton animatronic T-Rex, and a life-sized, 4,000-square-foot Barbie house. Beyond everybody's favorite bikes, trains and video games, each Toys"R"Us store keeps its shelves stocked with the season's must-have toys as well as nostalgic standbys that never go out of style. Time-tested brands such as LEGO, Radio Flyer, NERF and Fisher-Price share the shelves with an expansive selection of electronics for older kids, including Wii U and tablets. And though the company has inspired generations of boys and girls to try their hardest not to grow up, it also strives to ensure budding brains develop right on track by devoting a significant portion of its stores to "smart-play" with a wide selection of electronic learning toys and software. Toys"R"Us—whose extended family of brands includes Babies"R"Us and FAO Schwarz—has earned a number of awards and recognitions through the years, including a spot on Fortune's list of the World's Most Admired Companies in 2012. The company has also drawn considerable recognition for its expansive charitable efforts, which include partnerships with the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation and Save the Children. This year also marks the tenth consecutive year that the company has partnered with the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation to collect new, unwrapped toys and monetary donations in its stores to benefit the organization.4805 Outer LoopLouisville, KY US
Re-KidRead MoreNo one gets to be a kid more than once, but thanks to Re-Kid, the same pair of pint-sized jeans can delight more than one chid. The store specializes in re-selling kids' clothing, with styles that run the gamut form baby onesies to size 14 fashions. Their basics, such as Nike sneakers and Gap tees, complement Matilda Jane dresses and other outfits for special occasions, such as pre-school prom dresses. Meanwhile, the assortment of re-sold gear includes Carter sleepers for napping tots, along with assorted toys, books, and kid-friendly videos.3101 Richmond Rd.Lexington, KY US
Sugar and Spice A Childrens ShopRead MoreSugar & Spice shines a spotlight on boys and girls. The business has two sides, serving as a boutique clothing shop as well as a venue for birthday parties and special events. New shirts, dresses, shoes, and other items arrive on shelves regularly; the shop's Facebook page keeps customers up to date on new arrivals. For parties, hosts supply everything needed, including cake and activities, which range from making friendship bracelets to appraising the gemstones on the birthday girl's tiara.3381 Tates Creek RdLexington, KY US
Glowgolf DAVENPORTRead MoreWith iridescent miniature golf courses in malls throughout North America, Glowgolf adds elements of phosphorescent fun to shopping sessions. Courses contain sights such as light-defying blush corals, incandescent animals, and lush foliage reminiscent of the glowing trees on Neptune. Each pass is good for three 18-hole games, giving golfers ample opportunity to get familiar with each hole's obstacles. Equipment is available on the spot, so players won't have to carry around personal clubs or seek out a bioluminescent caddie.2028 Florence MallFlorence, KY US

You could still use SpamAssassin's locale filters: I have mine set to
nix anything in Korean. This works great, because I need to be able to
receive Japanese mail from a friend of mine.
Of course, if you're talking about spam in English from Asia, that
won't help... but right now probably 80% of my SPAM is in Korean. I
don't know a lick of Korean, so I have no problem throwing it all
out :-)

Bounder is a free 3D CAD application for solid modelling. It targets a feature-based approach where parts are designed by sketching profiles and extruding, or modifying existing faces.
This project started as an exercise to teach myself about BREP modelling, but has grown into a proper application. It's not Blender - this workflow is more appropriate for engineers than artists.
The emphasis is on design and parameterization rather than shaping, so that it is easy to create automatically many similar parts which differ only by the size or position of a feature. In the future this software should provide equivalent functionality to commercial products such as Pro/ENGINEER and SolidEdge.
The name Bounder is derived from the modeller which uses Boundary Representation (BREP). Any amusing synonyms are purely coincidental.
Bounder is currently alpha software. That is, it is possible to demonstrate (part of) the workflow, but the application is not feature complete. It will of course abort at the slightest provocation :)
If you're looking for something more complete, try FreeCAD.
This is entirely my own work - all of the code has been written from scratch without reference to any other code. As the sole author, I release this software into the public domain. You may use, duplicate, modify, distribute and relicense the software without restriction, but it is entirely at your own risk.
However, when compiled, this software uses libraries including gtkmm and gtkglext which are released under different conditions. If you distribute binaries made from this code, you must make sure that you comply with the license conditions of any libraries you link against.
The software is written in C++, using some features from the proposed C++0x standard. In particular, lambda expressions and shared_ptr from TR1. (C++0x has some really cool stuff in it - go check it out!)
You will need a very new compiler to build this. I use the experimental cxx0x-lambdas-branch of GCC. See linked page for build instructions.
Earlier versions built with GCC 4.3 and ICC 11.0, but these no longer work. Future versions of these compilers may work as support for the new standard is added.
As for libraries, install development files for the latest versions
gtkmm and
gtkglextmm and you should be set.
I work mainly on Ubuntu Linux 8.10
Please note that there are no binary releases yet. In its current state this software is likely only of interest to developers. If you are unable to build the code yourself then please hang around until the beta is ready (sorry!).
Alpha release 0.1 is out! See the downloads page. Here's a screenshot:
