Visit an old graveyard and you will likely see stone drapery: Draped urns, draped crosses, draped pedestals, draped columns. Sometimes drapery is swagged like window curtains to reveal an urn, flowers, or the stone's inscription—or even nothing at all.
Drapery is understood to represent grief and mourning, but there are two richer interpretations of gravestone drapery: drapery as a shroud and drapery as a partition.
Does how the drapery is used favor one interpretation or the other? Perhaps it does.
Draped urn
The urn, likely a reference to the ancient Grecian funerary urn, represents the soul. Seemingly dropped casually on the urn, the drapery may represent the shroud left behind when the deceased's soul left the body.
Swagged drapery
Drapery is also thought to be a symbol for the partition between life and death, between this life and the next. In this sense, swagged drapes can been seen as creating the opening through which the soul passes in making the transition to the next life.

Grave images: Drapery
5 comments:
Those are some very fine examples of drapes, I especially liked the one in relief on the left hand side from the last pair of photos.ReplyDelete
Very informative post! Though a draped urn is common, I actually do not see a lot of swagged drapery in my area. So those images were a real treat for me.ReplyDelete

Great post. There are several stones with dapery in my area but hands seem to be the most popular here.ReplyDelete
I see lots of drapery, but the urn-and-willow motif seems to be the most popular in my neck of the woods. For 19th century gravestones, that is. Though the swagged drapery with urn seems to run a close second!ReplyDelete
A fact-packed post - thank you, And great images!ReplyDelete

I recently purchased NBA Live 10 and am having some trouble updating the rosters. I am connected online but the Dynamic DNA feature does not actually update which teams the players are on.
Is it possible to update the rosters online through the PS network? If not, how can I update the rosters without doing the whole thing manually? I was under the impression that because NBA Elite 11 fell through, EA would offer current roster updates for NBA Live 10. That does not appear to be the case though.

* Canadian dollar down about 4 percent so far this week
* Bonds gain on safe haven bid
* Focus on U.S. jobs data, U.S. House vote on bailout
TORONTO, Oct 2 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar fell hard against the U.S. dollar on Thursday, with the greenback making swift gains on European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet's comments on risks to the euro zone economy.
Bond prices surged as worried investors continued to seek the safety of government debt amid a weakening global economy and falling stocks.
At 10:10 a.m. (1410 GMT), the Canadian dollar was at C$1.0719 to the U.S. dollar, or 93.29 cents, down from C$1.0620 to the U.S. dollar, or 94.16 U.S. cents, at Wednesday's close.
"Most of the U.S. dollar strength overnight came as a result of more euro weakness heading into the ECB announcement," said Shane Enright, currency strategist at CIBC World Markets.
"Most of the other currencies, the Canadian dollar included, are trending lower. With risk aversion still high and the markets still in crisis mode, the (U.S.) dollar is a beneficiary of that, even though on some levels, it seems a little nonsensical."
The ECB kept its benchmark rate steady at 4.25 percent. Trichet said inflation risks in the euro zone have diminished, and that the central bank had discussed cutting rates, but had decided against it.
While the Canadian dollar has fallen about 4 percent so far this week, it has outperformed other major currencies against the U.S. dollar in the past quarter. Only the Japanese yen has fared better.
While it is "very hard to unilaterally strengthen" against the U.S. dollar in this volatile environment, the Canadian dollar's fall won't extend too far, Enright said.
Canadian bond prices were higher across the curve, reflecting a wait-and-see sentiment towards the U.S. House vote of the revived bailout package for the financial industry as well as recent figures that paint a picture of a deteriorating U.S. economy.
Prices have rallied this week as investors have parked their cash in the safety of government bonds in response to the huge swings in stock markets.
Canadian and U.S. stock markets opened lower on Thursday despite the U.S. Senate's passage by a big margin of a bailout package for the financial industry.
The House of Representatives is expected to vote on the new bill on Friday after its surprise rejection of the first version of the plan earlier this week, which sent stocks reeling.
"Equity markets are unimpressed with the strong (Senate) majority and I think that's just because the battleground is the House, so it still remains uncertain. Hopeful, but uncertain," said Mark Chandler, fixed income strategist at RBC Capital Markets.
"As well, there's increasing concern about the economic data in the U.S."
Poor car sales, weak manufacturing numbers and disappointing jobless claims in the United Sates have heightened concern that there will be steep losses in Friday's jobs figures for September.
Bond prices got an added lift when ECB President Trichet said the bank had considered cutting interest rates though it was a unanimous decision to keep rates on hold, Chandler said.
The two-year bond rose 14 Canadian cents to C$100.23 to yield 2.639 percent. The 10-year bond gained 37 Canadian cents to C$104.65 to yield 3.672 percent.
The yield spread between the two-year and the 10-year bond was 113 basis points, up from 105 basis points at the previous close.
The 30-year bond added 50 Canadian cents to C$114.00 for a yield of 4.159 percent. In the United States, the 30-year treasury yielded 4.176 percent.
The three-month when-issued T-bill yielded 1.75 percent, down from 1.85 percent at the previous close. (Reporting by John McCrank and Ka Yan Ng; Editing by Peter Galloway)

Notice to Students on Criminal Background Checks
Current laws generally permit a state licensing board or agency to deny a license to practice nursing if the applicant has been convicted of a felony or other specified crime. Like many state licensing boards, the Office of the Professions of the New York State Education Department requires that a criminal background check be conducted prior to granting a license to practice nursing.
Clinton Community College does not require a criminal background check for admittance, but the College's educational requirements include placement at one or more hospitals or other off-campus clinical training sites. These sites frequently require a student to pass a criminal background check before the student can be placed for clinical training. If, based upon the results of a criminal background check, the site determines that a student's participation in its clinical training program would not be in the best interest of the site, the site may deny that student admission to the training program. Even if the student has already begun the placement when the results are received, the site may elect to dismiss the student, regardless of the student's performance while in the training program.
Each clinical training site that requires a criminal background check sets its own standards and procedures, and you may be asked by the site to pay the cost of the background check. You may also have to complete more than one criminal background check during the course of the Nursing program at Clinton Community College, depending on the number of sites where you are placed and the requirements of each site.
Please note that if a clinical training site determines that you may not take part in its clinical program based on the results of a criminal background check, you may be unable to complete your course requirements. It is important for you to consider this before you enroll in the Nursing program. Clinton Community College has no obligation to refund your tuition or fees or to otherwise accommodate you in the event you are ineligible to complete your course requirements based on the results of a criminal background check, or if you are denied a license to practice nursing.
Please be aware that the University of Vermont Health Network/CVPH is currently our only clinical training site.

Legacy Leather Duffle - c/o Coach
I'm heading back to Brooklyn on New Year's Eve, because
Speaking of the kids, I went completely overboard with their Christmas presents. I didn't realize it until I was wrapping them for two straight days and completely ran out of tags (even though I bought 50 and was taping presents together to stretch the tag usage). But they deserve it, because I have the best niece and nephews, ever. I also have the best sisters, and by sisters I mean Tessa, because she's my favorite. The rest are alright, I guess. No offense, guys. No offense. ;)
Hope you had a great holiday!

Laurel Hill School is gunning for what could be the biggest win in school history. The school's Hoboes mascot has been nominated for the USA Today High School Sports Best High School Mascot 2013.
Laurel Hill School is gunning for what could be the biggest win in school history.
The school's Hoboes mascot has been nominated for the USA Today High School Sports Best High School Mascot 2013.
"The railroad came through Laurel Hill decades ago, likely inspiring the school's mascot name, the hobo," USA Today High School Sports states. "One of the dictionary definitions of a hobo is a migratory worker. Laurel Hill is the only school in America to use the Hoboes as its mascot."
With 134 high school students, Laurel Hill is easily the smallest school of Florida's five nominees.
Orlando-based Cornerstone Charter Academy, the Fighting Ducks, is the second smallest school from Florida, with 242 students.
The other Florida schools nominated are the Key West Conchs, 1,209 students; the Lakeland Dreadnaughts, 2,011 students; and the Tarpon Springs Spongers, 1,503 students.
Laurel Hill School's athletic history is a source of pride for the school and the community. The school has seven state championship girls basketball teams and numerous district championships in other sports.
Laurel Hill also has helped launch the careers of a number of coaches and players.
But now the Hoboes are in a battle that the tiny school can't win by itself.
Yes, Laurel Hill School, Okaloosa County's version of David, needs everyone to join in as the school takes on the Goliaths across the state and around the country.
Five schools from each state, as well as Washington D.C., are battling for the top prize of $2,000. Second prize is $1,000; third prize, $500; and fourth prize, $250.
State voting runs through March 5, with 51 winners moving to the regional round, where voting will take place from March 6-14. The six regional winners will then battle it out for the top prize in the national round March 15-25.
"We are trying to get the word out," Laurel Hill athletic director and boys basketball coach Kent Zessin said. "We have been voted the most unique mascot in the country by other organizations. A few years ago, ESPN the magazine had us as one of the top 10 mascots.
"Our students and staff take great pride in our mascot and it would be great to get the support of the rest of the area for this. The $2,000 would really help us a lot."

Direct action undertaken by striking Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO) students and their allies has resulted in classes being cancelled until Monday, the final day of a ten-day court injunction ordering them back to class and criminalizing protests within 25 metres of either campus.
After being kettled by riot cops for hours on Wednesday, in an attempt to prevent a large demonstration from reaching the Lucien-Brault campus, students rallied again Thursday and marched on the campus where they were met with police pepper spray and batons.
Three buses of Sûreté du Québec (SQ) riot police from Sherbrooke arrived on April 19 to reinforce the Gatineau police and their anti-riot detachment.
A massive police presence has attempted to enforce the injunction and over 300 arrests have been made in the past two days.
A professor on Tuesday was the first to be arrested, after police cordoned off his office in the Social Sciences department and arrested him for obstruction, a day after he criticized police conduct, the judiciary, and the Quebec government in a press conference.
The government has come under fire for using the judiciary and the police to enforce the tuition hikes and circumvent the democratic decisions made by students.
On Thursday, students entered the campus through a side door and occupied the cafeteria, forcing the university to suspend classes. Student action against the injunction has resulted in a resounding victory, with classes only being held in part on two days during the ten-day ordeal, after a handful of students opposed to the strike took their grievance to the courts.
For the second day in a row, police used Société de transport de l'Outaouais (STO) transit buses to hold students after making mass arrests. Police swept up 161 people on Wednesday after a multiple-hour kettle on the Lac des Fées parkway and issued fines of $444 for blocking the road. Others who were forced to urinate in public were slapped with an additional $267 fine.
On Thursday, police once again used buses to house those mass arrested from inside the cafeteria; 151 were arrested in total. Students rallied at the Gatineau and Hull jails in solidarity with those arrested, who were held in buses for hours after the sweep. In a press conference, police announced that 148 charged with mischief would appear in court yesterday evening but this has yet to happen.
Police were unapologetic for their conduct which has sent multiple people to hospital throughout the week. On Thursday, student medics and paramedics treated those hit with pepper spray and batons, and an older parent of a student was shoved to the ground and suffered a head injury. Instead, police and the university in separate press conferences condemned what they claim were acts of vandalism perpetrated by students and those traveling from outside the city.
Police were also accused of lying to parents of a minor eating at the cafeteria when the occupation ensued and caught up in the mass arrest. They apparently told the parents that their son, a Nouvelles Frontières student, would be released in the afternoon in time for his athletic training at the school. When he failed to show, the infuriated parents had to retrieve him from the police station.
Police also ticketed a woman driving by and honking in support of the students outside the jail.
Among the arrested were three international students from Senegal, as well as students who arrived from Montreal by bus. At the time of publishing, they have yet to appear in court.
On Monday, students barricaded themselves inside the Alexandre-Taché campus and on Tuesday, riot police were deployed for the first time to suppress the strike. Some students who were born and grew up in the city admit this is the first time they have ever seen the riot squad detachment of the Gatineau police.
UQO is one of the first schools to have been hit with an injunction in Quebec with police violence being used to uphold the court ruling, despite the democratic decisions made by students themselves and the mandate to strike.
The Université de Montréal received an earlier injunction but classes have since been suspended, as they have also been at the Université de Sherbrooke where an injunction was issued this week.
There are also rumours circulating that the Cégep de l'Outaouais will be the next to face an injunction as the school recently received a mise en demeure forcing professors to hold classes. These events suggest a tactic to divide students in the city as they will be forced to defend their respective campuses.
Cégep students voted to go on strike on March 13 with UQO students joining them on March 26. Students in Québec have been striking for weeks against Premier Jean Charest's announcement to raise tuition fees by $325 per year for five years beginning in 2012.
With the Quebec-wide student strike now in its tenth week, and protests crippling Montreal, Education Minister Line Beauchamp is hoping to bring the two sides together to negotiate.
However, the government attempted to create a rift between the three large student federations over alleged "violence and intimidation" perpetrated by students and the accusation that La Coalition large de l'Association pour une Solidarité Syndicale Étudiante (CLASSE) did not condemn the actions, referring to the vandalism against government offices and metro trains in Montreal.
The other large student unions, the Fédération étudiante universitaire du Québec (FEUQ) and the Fédération étudiante collégiale du Québec (FECQ) will not meet with the Minister until the CLASSE holds its congress this weekend to determine its position, marking a potentially important departure from the 2005 student strike where the FEUQ and the FECQ met with the government without the (then) ASSÉ's participation.
Police and security have been denying entry to campus buildings for those wearing the carré rouge (red square) – the symbol of the Quebec-wide student strike.
According to La Coalition large de l'Association pour une Solidarité Syndicale Étudiante (CLASSE), there are currently 184 student unions on strike representing 168,072 students.

NBC's Chuck Todd discusses how Florida may be used as a model for the rest of the country to show how changes in demographics, particular an influx of Hispanic voters in key counties, affected the outcome of the election.
Updated at 12:26 a.m. ET: President Barack Obama won re-election despite an electorate that sees a nation on the wrong track, with a weak and troubling economy, according to NBC projections and exit polls. Exit poll interviews with voters point to three big reasons for Obama's victory:
- First, despite a slim majority of voters thinking the country is on the wrong track, 54 percent approve of the way Obama is doing his job, and the electorate was almost exactly split on whether Obama or Romney would be better at handling the economy.
- Among the four voters in 10 who said they think economic conditions in the country are getting better, a huge majority, nearly nine out of ten, said they voted for Obama.
- Finally, a slight majority of voters voiced an unfavorable view of Romney personally, while a slight majority had a favorable view of Obama. On the attribute of whether the president or his GOP rival was "a candidate who cares about people like me" Obama had a massive lead over Romney.
Voters were sharply divided along lines of sex, ethnicity, age, income and religion, exit polls showed.
NBC's Tamron Hall breaks down the results of the NBC News national exit poll, which shows a gender gap that worked in President Obama's favor as well as a boost from the Latino community, from which he received more votes than four years ago.
The gender gap was distinct: Among male voters, 52 percent favored Romney, while 45 percent backed Obama. The data reflected slipping support for Obama, who won 49 percent of male voters four years ago. (Full exit polling data is available here.)
Among white male voters the disparity was even sharper: Obama was winning just 36 percent of the white male vote Tuesday, compared with the 41 percent he won in 2008, the exit polls showed.
Women voters favored Obama 55 percent to 43 percent – about the same split as four years ago when 56 percent of women voters preferred Obama and 43 percent supported Republican candidate Sen. John McCain.
Within the female vote there was a sharp divide between married and unmarried women: Married women backed Romney, 53 percent to 46 percent, while unmarried women preferred Obama by a better than 2-to-1 ratio, 68 percent to 30 percent.
Virginia Senator-elect Tim Kaine weighs in on what made the difference for him and the president in his state, how Obama plans to work with the GOP and why it may be a more cooperative relationship in this second term.
Among white voters -– who accounted for nearly three quarters of the electorate -- Romney was leading Obama by 58 to 40 percent, making Romney's performance among white voters three points better than McCain's in 2008.
Younger voters preferred Obama, but not by as lopsided a margin as in 2008: Among voters age 18 to 29 Tuesday, three out of five said they voted for Obama, compared with about two of three in 2008.
On the other hand, Romney had a substantial advantage among voters 65 and older, who favored the Republican by a margin of 11 points.

Latinos and blacks overwhelmingly voted for Obama, according to the exit polls. Latinos, an important part of Obama's winning coalition in 2008, were even stronger in their support of Obama than they were four years ago. Latinos, who accounted for about a tenth of the national electorate, favored Obama by about 70-30. Black voters continued to be exceptionally loyal to Obama – he was getting more than nine in 10 of their votes Tuesday night, just as he did four years ago.
Obama showed strength among lower-income voters, winning three out of five voters with family incomes below $50,000. Among middle-income voters Romney led 52 percent to 46 percent, and he did a bit better than that among voters with family incomes of $100,000 over more.
Another dividing line in the electorate, as in 2008, was religion. Three out of five voters who told exit poll interviewers they attended religious services weekly or more often preferred Romney, while 40 percent backed Obama. This represented about a five point improvement among such voters for Romney over McCain's performance four years ago.
Among those who said they never attend religious services (a much smaller portion of the electorate) Obama won more than three of five.
A slim majority of voters Tuesday told exit poll interviewers that they felt the country was "off on the wrong track," but the mood of the electorate was markedly more optimistic than it was four years ago when a record three out of four voters said the country was on the wrong track.
An overwhelming 76 percent of voters said the state of the economy is poor, or "not so good," but voters did not tend to blame Obama, who came into office in the midst of a financial crisis and deep recession. Only 38 percent said Obama was "more to blame for the current economic conditions," compared with 53 percent who laid the blame more on former President George W. Bush.

I've been wanting to use Biscoff Spread inside a cookie for awhile and then I saw this delicious recipe for Molasses Ginger Cookies on Table for Two and I thought it would be the perfect cookie combination and I was so right! These cookies are so super delicious without the biscoff spread but when you add it between two cookies.....WOW!
2 1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp ground cloves (the recipe called for 1/2 teaspoon but I don't really like cloves so I cut it down)
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup molasses
1 jar of Biscoff Spread (you will probably only need about a cup or so to spread inside each cookie sandwich)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheet with a silpat liner or parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and brown sugar until creamy and fluffy. Add in the the egg and molasses. Beat until incorporated.
Slowly add in the dry ingredients until just combined. Refrigerate dough for an hour or so to firm it up and make it easier to handle. Drop about 1/2 teaspoon of cookie dough into a shallow bowl filled with turbinado sugar, cover dough with sugar and then gently roll into a ball and place on lined cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before removing baking sheets. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Spread about a teaspoon of Biscoff Spread on the bottom of a cookie and then top with another cookie to create a sandwich. Store in an airtight container

TerraCycle uses only circular methods (reuse, upcycling or recycling) for repurposing the waste we collect through our various programs.
When it comes to what to do with waste, reuse (using something for its original purpose) is always the best option as it leverages all of the energy and materials that were needed to make the original product. At TerraCycle we bring reuse solutions to collected shoes, various forms of e-waste, clothing, and a range of other waste streams.
The key difference between upcycling and reusing waste is that with upcycling the original intention of the object changes. TerraCycle works with many of the world's best companies to bring upcycling solutions to many forms of waste. We sew juice pouches together into backpacks, chip bags into casual shoes, and even granola wrappers into shower curtains. Many of these products are available to buy in major retailers around the world as well as online.
The science of recycling is focused on recovering the materials that an object is made of. For example, recycling a used pen involves shredding it, separating the materials that it was made from, then melting those materials into raw materials that can be then used to make new recycled products. By volume, TerraCycle recycles over 97% of the waste that we collect.
Composting, is similar to recycling, but intended for organics; converting complex organic materials into soil and fertilizer. At TerraCycle we compost all the organic waste that we collect, such as the coffee in used coffee capsules, which is composted into rich organic materials to be used again to grow plants.
TerraCycle's team of scientists have developed a range of closed-loop solutions for many types of waste. This includes making innovative products such as the world's first pen product from used pens.
TerraCycle is always looking for partnership opportunities. If you are a waste converter that could help us recycle more waste, or a manufacturing company that is looking to make products from recycled waste, then please contact our Materials Team.

Obama Weighs Possible Immigration Orders — And Their Political Ripples
Obama Weighs Possible Immigration Orders — And Their Political Ripples
President Obama is preparing to issue new executive orders on immigration. The White House is considering a wide range of actions, one of which could provide temporary work permits for people who are in the country illegally but still meet certain criteria.
President Obama is preparing to issue executive orders on immigration. They could provide temporary work permits to some immigrants who are in the country illegally. Today the president repeated his promise to do what he can on immigration unilaterally since Congress has not acted.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: It continues to be my belief that if I can't see Congressional action, that I need to do at least what I can in order to make the system work better.
BLOCK: NPR's Mara Liasson joins us now to discuss what that might mean. And Mara, what about that? What are some of the executive actions that the president is considering?
MARA LIASSON, BYLINE: Well, the White House is looking at a wide range of actions. He could provide temporary work permits - that is relief from deportation as long as he is in office for people who are here illegally but meet certain criteria. They've paid their taxes. They have no criminal records. He could provide relief to family members of U.S. citizens. He could provide relief to parents of the dreamers. Those are the young people brought here as children that the president has already provided deportation relief to. He could also decide to increase the number of the legal immigration visas to high-tech and agricultural workers. He has the authority to prioritize deportation. Remember, Congress has only appropriated funds to deport about 400,000 people a year. So the White House is already prioritizing who they deport.
BLOCK: And even before announcement of what specifically he will do, there has been pre-reaction coming from all sides, right?
LIASSON: That's right. And the people on both sides say there would be a lot of different reactions. Hispanic advocates say the Hispanic community would be ecstatic if he did this. They would be grateful to the president and the Democrats. Republicans on the other hand say that he would be overreaching his authority. Some Republicans have already talked about impeaching the president if he expands deportation relief. The Republican leadership in Congress does not want impeachment to be their position. They feel that would be a political trap that would further alienate the Republican Party from Hispanic voters. But other Republicans are already talking about trying to defund the president's efforts by attaching measures to a must-pass piece of legislation that funds the government after September 30th. So they are threatening a government shutdown over this.
BLOCK: And Mara, of course, all of this is coming shortly before the midterm elections. What would be the political effects of all this?
LIASSON: There's a lot of debate about that. It's very hard to gain this out politically. The White House thinks not much effect on the midterms either way. They say there's only one battleground state, Colorado, where there's a significant number of Hispanic voters who might be encouraged to turn out for Democrats out of gratitude for the president's executive actions.
Republicans say it would energize their base since the child immigration crisis at the southwestern border. Earlier this summer, immigration has become a much bigger issue for Republicans in battleground races. But Democratic operatives say they don't think the Republican base could be any more energized than they are already. Still, red-state Democrats are very nervous about this with the exception of Mark Udall in Colorado. Almost all the Democratic Senate candidates in battleground states have said they do not want the president to do this.
BLOCK: So then why would the White House act before the midterms? Would there be much difference between issuing executive orders in mid-September or wait till after the midterm's due in mid-November?
LIASSON: Well, that is a good question. And I've been asking it to a lot of people. Here is one political theory about why acting before the election makes sense. If the Democrats lose the Senate, the president will have no political capital left. He'll be at his weakest moment. The Democratic agenda will look kaputt. But if he does it before, he still has some political clout. And if he wants the clearest possible contrast with the Republicans, in effect daring them to overreact and call for impeachment or a government shutdown, he has to do it this month. He has to do it in September before the continuing resolution that funds the government comes due on September 30th. So if you thought we had put that kind of political brinksmanship behind us, you would be wrong.
BLOCK: OK, and Mara briefly, if the midterms aren't the main political calculation for President Obama here, what is?
LIASSON: Well, White House aides say the president is playing a longer game. He's thinking about his legacy. These executive orders have the potential to have a huge impact on people's lives, on the U.S. economy and on the next presidential election because Hispanics are the fastest-growing segment of the electorate.
BLOCK: OK, NPR national political correspondent, Mara Liasson. Mara, thanks.
LIASSON: Thank you.

Marc Topkin is reporting that the Rays have signed Gabe Kapler to a one-year, $1 million deal. The same Gabe Kapler who is the only player in major league history to tear his Achilles Heal while running the bases after a teammate's home run.
Right field is now going to be All Gabe, All the Time. Kapler, who had a 1.001 OPS against lefties in 2008 (87 PA), will likely join Gabe Gross to form the all-Gabe right field platoon. This signing could also be a sign of a new religious diversity initiative by the Rays as Kapler, who is Jewish, will be partnering with Gross, who is a devout Christian.
Last season, Rays right fielders posted a combined .809 OPS, which is not terrible, but as a run-producing position, that only ranked 10th in the American League. The addition of Kapler should help push the Rays up closer to league average.
With the Gabes in right field, both Fernando Perez and Matt Joyce will now likely begin the season in triple-A, with the final three bench spots going to Shawn Riggans, Willy Aybar and Ben Zobrist.
The Rays now project to have 16 players with a salary of at least $1 million in 2009.
No word yet on who is being dropped from the 40-man roster to make room for Kapler. The leading candidate is JK Ryu.

Craft beers are taking the brewing world – and Ireland – by storm. So join other beer lovers in tasting the delicious wares of the island's microbreweries and small-scale producers
Think you're a beer buff? Think again. There are people out there who take this stuff REALLY seriously. "They call themselves the beer-nerds. Nice guys," says bartender Joann Erickson of the people who pop into her pub – notebook in hand – when the seasonal craft beers come in.
But just because you don't travel around bars with a notebook at the ready, doesn't mean you can't join in.
Prop yourself up at Joann's place of work, Dublin's JW Sweetman, and you can get an instant tutorial in microbrewing. Shining copper tanks bulge inside the pub, and you can often see the head brewer at work on the very ales you're sipping.
JW Sweetman's five in-house brews range from a classic Irish stout to a crisp lager, and the five-sample tray is the best way to experience the lot.

"The whole artisan beer scene is going into orbit in Ireland," wrote the Godmother of Irish cooking, Darina Allen in the Irish Examiner. And with a discerning population to taste it, and the world-famous Irish pub to sell it in, it's a wonder it took so long.
If you're looking to get acquainted with what's out there, amble down to the Oslo Bar and microbrewery in Salthill, just outside Galway city. Oslo is one of six pubs operated by the Galway Bay Brewery between Galway and Dublin, all guaranteeing extensive menus. In their Black Sheep Pub in Dublin, there are 23 craft beers on tap and over 110 craft brews on offer.
The staff is the real prize here, though, eager to assist navigation of the numerous choices.
Cork city holds dear its Franciscan Well Brewery and brewpub. The stout is piped straight from the brewery, while hulking, holding tanks of ale glimmer behind the bar.
Northern Ireland's largest microbrewery, Whitewater, runs the White Horse Inn, as well as supplying casks to the likes of Belfast's Crown Bar Saloon. The gas-lit, handcrafted wooden interior is one of the prettiest places to taste Whitewater or Hilden's latest brews. Molly's Chocolate Stout is a taste for the adventurous, though, and is best experienced at Molly's Yard pub next to Belfast's College Green microbrewery.
After The New York Times pulled up a chair at the bar of Dublin's L. Mulligan Grocer recently, it listed some local craft brews it would love to drink when back in the America. The wish-list included Belfast Blonde, Galway Hooker, and Eight Degrees Knockmealdown Porter.
Ireland's craft beer revolution has even hit Reddit. A recent thread about Irish craft brews elicited the following response from one user: "I really hope Irish craft brewing takes off to the point where I can find a few in the US."
Here's hoping.

The No. 2 Maryland (3-0) men's lacrosse team returns to the friendly confines of Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium for an ACC showdown with No. 1 Duke (4-0) on Saturday, March 1 at noon.
• Maryland is coming off of a dominating 16-8 victory in its 2014 ACC opener at then-No. 2 Syracuse on Feb. 22. Freshman Matt Rambo continues to lead the team with 12 points on nine goals and three assists on the season. Rambo has scored the game-winning goal in all three of the Terps' victories so far in 2014. Senior Mike Chanenchuk leads the team with four assists and is second in points with 11. Junior Charlie Raffa has won 39-of-58 (.672) faceoffs this season with a team-best 24 groundballs. Senior Michael Ehrhardt has made a seamless transition to the long-stick midfield spot and has nine groundballs and a team-best six caused turnovers. Senior Niko Amato has started every game of his college career (53 straight) and boasts a 5.25 goals-against average this season with a .650 save percentage.
• Duke is the consensus No. 1 team in the country and comes into College Park off of a pair of victories last weekend – 9-6 over No. 18 Penn and 14-6 over Stony Brook. The Blue Devils are led by senior attackman Jordan Wolf, who has 19 points on 10 goals and nine assists this season. Defensively, the Blue Devils have been buoyed by the return of redshirt senior Casey Carroll, a 2007 first team All-American who served with the 3rd BN 75th Ranger Regiment of the U.S. Army from 2007-12. Sophomore Luke Aaron has started the last two games in net for Duke after relieving junior Kyle Turri in cage after the first quarter vs. Denver. Aaron has seen action in all four games this season and boasts a 5.73 goals-against average. Senior Brendan Fowler was a first team All-American in 2013 after setting an NCAA record for faceoff wins in a season with 339 victories. So far this season Fowler has won 57 of 89 faceoffs (.640) with 38 groundballs.
10 … Since 2002 Maryland has won 104 of the 113 games in which the Terps have scored 10 or more goals for a .920 winning percentage.
9 … Maryland is 122-26 in games since 2002 when it allows nine goals or less, for an .824 winning percentage.
8 … This will be the eighth time since 2011 that Maryland and Duke have played each other.
7 … Mike Chanenchuk has seven goals vs. the Blue Devils in four career games vs. Duke.
6 … This will be the sixth time since 1978 that the Terps have played in a No. 1 vs. No. 2 game.
5 … Xander Ritz had five goals vs. the Blue Devils the last time these two programs with Duke ranked No. 1 and Maryland ranked No. 2 (8-7 overtime win for the Terps in 2006).
4 … Four different Terps have registered hat tricks so far in 2014.
3 … Maryland has had the same starting lineup in each of its first three games in 2014.
2 … Charlie Raffa had a career-best two goals in the 16-8 win at then-No. 2 Syracuse on Feb. 22.
1 … Only one current Terp – Niko Amato – has played in every game for Maryland vs. Duke since 2011.
• John Tillman is in his seventh season as a head coach, and fourth with the Terps, with a 58-34 career record for a 63.0 winning percentage. Tillman is 38-15 (.717) as Maryland's head coach. He had a 20-19 record in three seasons as the head coach at Harvard.
• Duke's John Danowski is in his 32nd season as a head coach and holds an all-time record of 334-168 (.665). He is in his sevent season at Duke and has a 115-29 (.799) record with the Blue Devils.
• Tillman has a 6-4 career record against Duke while coaching at Maryland and Harvard, all against Danowski. The two have met twice in the NCAA tournament with Tillman's Terps winning, 9-5, in the 2011 NCAA semifinals in Baltimore and again, 16-10, in the semis in Foxborough, Mass., in 2012.
• Maryland and Duke have played 81 times. The Terps hold a 61-20 edge (.753) in the series that dates back to 1940. Maryland's 61 wins against the Blue Devils are the most against any opponent.
• Junior Mike Chanenchuk set his career high with six points on four goals and two assists to lead the No. 1 Terps to a 16-7 victory over No. 19 Duke at Koskinen Stadium on March 2, 2013. The nine-goal victory was the highest margin of victory over the Blue Devils since a 16-4 Maryland win in 1984. Kevin Cooper, Jake Bernhardt and Jay Carlson each had two goals in the win for the Terps, while Charlie Raffa won 11-of-17 faceoffs with eight groundballs.
• The rubber match took place once again in the semifinals of the NCAA tournament and once again it was the Terps advancing to the title game with a 16-10 win at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. Maryland never trailed in the game after opening up an early 3-0 lead. The Terps held just a two-goal lead entering the fourth quarter, but Owen Blye scored twice in a 6-0 run that put the game out of reach. Kevin Cooper led all scorers with five points on a goal and four assists, while Blye finished with three goals. Curtis Holmes won 12-of-21 faceoffs with six groundballs to help the Terps control the pace of play, while Niko Amato was soldi in cage, stopping 10 Blue Devil shots.
• The two teams met in the ACC semifinals in Charlottesville, Va., and the Terps and Blue Devils played a highly physical contest that saw Duke advance with a 6-5 win. Joe Cummings and Mike Chanenchuk paced the Terps with two goals apiece, while Josh Dionne had three for the Blue Devils.
• In 2012's first meeting the Terps raced out to a 4-0 lead halfway through the first quarter and coasted to a 10-7 victory over No. 8 Duke at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium. Drew Snider led the Maryland offense with a hat trick.Niko Amato was spectacular in cage, making nine of his 14 saves in the fourth quarter.
• The stakes were much higher in the 2011 rubber match as unseeded Maryland defeated No. 5 seed Duke, 9-4, in a tough, physical game in the semifinals of the NCAA tournament at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. Grant Catalino led the offensive attack for the Terps with three goals, while Joe Cummings added two goals and an assist. The Terrapin defense was terrific in holding the Blue Devils to just four goals with Niko Amato making 13 saves to send the Terps to their first NCAA title-game appearance since 1998.
• The 2011 rematch took place again at Duke's Koskinen Stadium, but this time the stakes were a bit higher – the ACC championship. This time it was the Terps coming away with an 11-9 victory to take its first conference crown since 2005. Ryan Young scored the first game-winning goal of his career when he jumped in the air to redirect aJohn Haus pass from behind the cage. Grant Catalino earned tournament MVP honors after scoring three goals vs. the Blue Devils in the title game.
• For the second time in two years the Terps and the Blue Devils needed overtime to decide things, but in 2011 in Durham it was Duke that pulled out a 9-8 victory on freshman Jordan Wolf's game-winning goal 1:01 into the first OT. The Blue Devils held a 7-4 lead at the start of the fourth quarter, but four-straight goals by Landon Carr, Michael Shakespeare, Joe Cummings and John Haus, who finished with three goals in the game, gave Maryland a one-goal lead with 3:48 to go. Maryland appeared to have the game wrapped up in the final seconds when Carr forced a Blue Devil turnover, but a controversial holding call gave Duke another chance and Zach Howell scored with 0:03 left to send the game into overtime. Both goalies were sensational in the game with Maryland's Niko Amato making 19 saves and Duke's Dan Wigrizer stopped 17 shots.
• The 2010 meeting will go down as one of the most memorable in the series as the Terps pulled out an 11-10 overtime victory at the 2010 Konica Minolta Face-Off Classic in Baltimore. Grant Catalino was the star of the game for the Terps, netting a career-best five goals, including the game-winner. Duke scored the final three goals of regulation to send the game into OT and then controlled possession for all but eight seconds of overtime, but that's all the Terps needed for Bryn Holmes to cause a turnover, Brian Farrell to scoop a groundball and Dean Hart to push the transition and find Catalino on the left wing for the game-winning shot. Senior goalie Brian Phipps made 15 saves in the win.
• Maryland won an 11-8 decision over the Blue Devils at the 2009 Konica Minolta Face-Off Classic in Baltimore. Jeff Reynolds was the key factor for the Terps in the victory. He scored a goal and had an assist, but he won three key face-offs that led directly to goals that spurred Maryland onto the win. Grant Catalino had six points on two goals and four assists, while Ryan Young had five points on a pair of scores and three helpers.
• In 2008 the Blue Devils defeated the Terps, 15-7, in Durham, N.C. Travis Reed totaled three goals for the Terps in the defeat.
• The 2007 meeting was the first road game for the Blue Devils since their 2006 season was cancelled. Duke responded with a 14-7 victory behind a six-goal, seven-point effort from Matt Danowski. Max Ritz led the Terps in the game with a three-point effort on two goals and an assist.
• The 2006 season saw the rivalry escalate even more as the teams entered the game ranked first and second in the nation. The game more than lived up to the hype as the two squads battled and needed overtime to decide the victor. In that overtime, Xander Ritz sent the Terps home with the 8-7 win after scoring his fifth goal of the game with 1:14 remaining in the first extra period.
• In 2005 the two teams played three times with the Blue Devils winning two of the three games. It was the second time in the series the two squads played three times in a season. In 1992 the two teams played in early March, again in the ACC Tournament and in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Maryland won all three games that season.
• In the 2005 NCAA Semifinals, Duke ended Maryland's season with a 18-9 defeat at Lincoln Financial Field. Bill McGlone gave the Terps a 1-0 lead, but the Blue Devils responded with nine unanswered goals and took a 10-3 lead into halftime. Joe Walters scored three times in the third quarter, but Maryland could not close the deficit.
• In 2005's ACC Final, Maryland turned in its finest defensive effort of the year. The Terps held Duke, the nation's highest scoring offense, scoreless for more than 40 minutes en route to a 9-5 victory at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore on May 1. ACC Tournament MVP Harry Alford made 15 saves on the afternoon, while freshman Will Dalton helped the Terps control the ball on face-offs, winning 7-of-10 draws. Offensively Maryland was led by All-American Joe Walters who scored his second straight hat trick vs. the Blue Devils, while adding an assist. Freshman attackman Max Ritz also chipped in a pair for goals in the victory.
• The 2005 regular season game saw Maryland dominate Duke at the Maryland Field Hockey and Lacrosse Complex, but the Blue Devils found a way to get out of College Park with a 10-8 victory. All-American Joe Walters scored a hat trick for the Terps, but Duke outscored Maryland 6-3 in the second half to secure the win. Michael Phipps scored two goals and added an assist for his second career three-point game.
• The Terps dominated the series from 1955 through 1988, winning all 27 meetings.
• Since 1978 (the first year rankings were recorded in the Terp media guide), Maryland has played a No. 1-ranked team on 26 occasions and has pulled off the upset eight times.
• The last time Maryland played a No. 1 team came just last season when the No. 2-ranked Terps played at No. 1 Loyola on Feb. 23, 2013. John Haus led the way for Maryland, scoring a career-best four goals along with adding an assist as the Terrapins knocked off the Greyhounds, 12-10, at the Ridley Athletic Complex. Jesse Bernhardt helped the Terps control the tempo of the game with a career-best 10 groundballs.
• The most recent occasion of Maryland knocking off a No. 1 team in the NCAA tournament came in the quarterfinals of the 2011 NCAA tournament in Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. The unseeded Terps battled to a 5-5 tie with No. 1 Syracuse in regulation, but senior Grant Catalino propelled Maryland to the victory with a low-to-high shot from the right wing off a feed from senior Ryan Young. Redshirt freshman Niko Amato made nine saves, while sophomoreCurtis Holmes dominated the faceoff X, winning 11-of-14 draws with six groundballs.
• The No. 4 Terps controlled the game from the outset and pulled off a 13-7 win over No. 1 Virginia at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium on Saturday, March 29, 2008. Redshirt junior goalie Jason Carter had a career-day vs. the Wahoos, stopping 15 shots. Freshman attackman Travis Reed led the Terrapin offense with a career-best five points on three goals and two assists.
• Prior to the victory over Virginia, Maryland last upset the nation's top-ranked team on March 4, 2006 when the No. 2-ranked Terps pulled out a thrilling 8-7 overtime victory at No. 1 Duke. Xander Ritz scored five goals vs. the Blue Devils, including the game-winner for the Terrapins.
• Before that 2006 win over Duke, the last time the Terps defeated the nation's top team was on May 23, 1998 vs. Loyola in the NCAA Semifinals at Piscataway, N.J. Maryland's Matt Hahn scored five goals to help the Terrapins to a dominating 19-8 win over the Greyhounds, who were coached by former Maryland head coach Dave Cottle.
• Prior to 2008, the last time the Terps upset the No.1 team at Capital One Field at Byrd Stadium was a 13-11 win over Virginia on March 30, 1996.
• Following its win at then-No. 2 Syracuse last Saturday, Maryland has vaulted into the No. 2 spot in the latest Inside Lacrosse media poll, which sets up a No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown on Saturday when No. 1 Duke comes to College Park.
• Since rankings were first kept in the Maryland record book in 1978, Saturday's game will be just the sixth time the Terps will play a No. 1 team as the No. 2 team.
• The most recent occurrence came just last season when No. 2 Maryland traveled to Baltimore to face No. 1 Loyola on Feb. 23, 2013. The Terps jumped out to a six-goal lead early in the third quarter before the Greyhounds climbed back into the game, but in the end Maryland emerged with a 12-10 victory.
• Before that was the epic overtime victory for the No. 2 Terps when they played No. 1 Duke in Durham on March 4, 2006. Senior midfielder/attackman Xander Ritz scored five goals, but it was the final one, which came with 2:46 left in the first overtime, that gave Maryland the 8-7 victory.
• You have to go back to 1987 for the time a No. 2 Maryland team played a No. 1 squad. That season saw the second-ranked Terrapins host No. 1 North Carolina on March 28 at Byrd Stadium and the Terps earned a 10-goal victory over the Tar Heels, 16-6.
• The No. 2 vs. No. 1 matchup happened twice in 1979 with No. 2 Maryland dropping both games to No. 1 Johns Hopkins.
• While this will be the sixth time the Terps have played a No. 1 team while holding the No. 2 ranking, Maryland has never played a No. 2-ranked team while it has held the No. 1 ranking.
• One axiom of lacrosse is that if you score 10 goals or more your chances of winning are pretty good. Well, a look at the results since 2002 shows that when Maryland scores 10 or more goals there's not just a pretty good chance the Terrapins will win; it's an almost certainty. Since 2002 Maryland has won 104 of the 113 games in which the Terps have scored 10 or more goals for a .920 winning percentage.
• Maryland scored 10, but fell at North Carolina, 11-10, on March 24, 2012 and again came out on the losing end, despite scoring 11 in a 13-11 loss at Colgate on May 5, 2012. The Terps scored 11 vs. Johns Hopkins on April 16, 2011, but the Blue Jays won the game in overtime, 12-11. On April 3 of last season the Terps lost to No. 1 Virginia by a final of 11-10, giving Maryland its only loss when scoring 10 or more goals in 2010. In 2009 the Terps lost to Georgetown, 13-10 on Feb. 21 and lost again when scoring 10 in the ACC Semifinals in a 16-10 defeat at North Carolina. Prior to that, Maryland had not lost when scoring 10 or more goals since dropping an 11-10 decision to Virginia in the semifinals of the ACC Tournament in Durham, N.C. The Terrapins got to 10 goals in the 100th game against Johns Hopkins, but the Blue Jays took the game 14-10. Virginia is the only team to beat the Terps twice when allowing 10 or more goals. The Wahoos did it first in 2002 with another 11-10 decision.
• The Terps have been extremely impressive (winning 92.0 percent of its games since 2002) when it scores 10 or more goals, they have been nearly as impressive when holding opponents to less than 10 goals during that span.
• Since 2002 Maryland is 122-26 in games, for a .824 winning percentage, when it has held opponents under 10 goals. The Terps have played 197 total games since 2002. Maryland has held opponents to nine goals or less 75.1 percent of the time.
• The difference between winning and losing for Maryland this season is simple – when the Terps shoot well they win. As it turns out 30% is the magic number for the Terps historically and this season as well. Maryland is 3-0 on the year and shot 30% or better in two of its three victories and just barely missed that mark in the win at Syracuse.
W- Mount St. Mary's: 16 goals, 44 shots = 36.4%
W- UMBC: 14 goals, 45 shots = 31.1%
W- at Syracuse: 16 goals, 55 shots = 29.1%
• Since 2005 the Terps are a remarkable 64-4 (.941) when shooting 30% or better in a game. The only four losses were: 13-10 to Georgetown in 2009 (the Terps shot 10 of 30 for 33.3% vs. the Hoyas), 11-10 to No. 1 Virginia on April 3, 2010 (10 of 33 for 30.3%), 12-11 in overtime on April 16, 2011 to No. 3 Johns Hopkins (11 of 28 for 39.3%) and 13-11 at Colgate on May 5, 2012 (11 of 31 for 35.5%).
• If 30% is the benchmark, then 40% shooting is in a class all to itself and Maryland has shot 40% or better in 15 games since the start of the 2008 season. Out of those 14 games, Maryland shot 50% or better in four of them.
• With four goals in his first college game, a 16-3 win over Mount St. Mary's (Feb. 8), Matt Rambo became just the ninth Maryland men's lacrosse freshman to record a hat trick since 1998. He followed that up with another hat trick in the 14-3 win over UMBC (Feb. 15) to become the first Terp to record back-to-back hat tricks in his first two collegiate games since Grant Catalino in 2008.
• Connor Cannizzaro scored his first hat trick with three goals in the Terps' 16-8 win at Syracuse to become the 10th Terp freshman with a hat trick since 1998. This marks just the second time since 1998 that two freshman have recorded hat tricks in the same season.
• Game-by-game stats haven't been saved since the 1998 season, so the following chart can only go back to then, but here's a look at freshman hat tricks (consecutive games are underlined):
Andrew Combs (1 in 1998): 3-0=3 vs. Towson, Mar. 7
Mike LaMonica (1 in 1999): 3-0=3 vs. Penn State, Mar. 17
Mike Mollot (1 in 2000): 3-4=7 vs. Hofstra, May 14 (NCAA first round)
Dan LaMonica (3 in 2001): 3-1=4 vs. Duke, Mar. 4; 3-1=4 vs. Johns Hopkins, Apr. 14; 3-1=4 vs. Virginia, Apr. 20 (ACC semifinals)
Joe Walters (6 in 2003): 4-1=5 at Towson, Mar. 8; 4-2=6 vs. Bucknell, Mar. 11; 4-0=4 vs. Butler, Mar. 25; 3-1=4 at Virginia, Mar. 29; 4-0=4 at Navy, Apr. 5; 3-1=4 vs. UMBC, Apr. 25
Grant Catalino (3 in 2008): 4-0=4 at Georgetown, Feb. 23; 3-1=4 at Mount St. Mary's, Feb. 26; 4-3=7 vs. Yale, May 3
Travis Reed (4 in 2008): 4-1=5 at Mount St. Mary's, Feb. 26; 3-0=3 at Duke, Mar. 1; 3-0=3 vs. Providence, Mar. 3; 3-2=5 vs. Virginia, Mar. 29
John Haus (1 in 2010): 3-0=3 vs. North Carolina, Apr. 23 (ACC semifinals)
Matt Rambo (2 in 2014): 4-2=6 vs. Mount St. Mary's, Feb. 8; 3-0=3 vs. UMBC, Feb. 15
Connor Cannizzaro (1 in 2014): 3-1=4 at Syracuse, Feb. 22
• The Terps boast an all-time record of 750-253-4 (.748), dating back to the first varsity team in 1924 (a team was not fielded in 1944 and 1945 due to World War II). Maryland has finished every one of its previous 88 seasons with a .500 or better record, including last season when the Terps went 12-6. The program reached the 700-win milestone with a 15-6 victory over Penn on April 14, 2009 at Ludwig Field and became just the fourth program with 750 wins with a 16-8 win at No. 2 Syracuse on Feb. 22, 2014.
• During the decade of the 2000s, Maryland went 111-49 for a .694 win percentage, making it the winningest decade in Terrapin lacrosse history. In the decade of the 1990s, Maryland posted a 95-47 record. The .669 winning percentage matched Maryland's win percentage of the 1980s when the Terps went 83-41 and also compiled a .669 win percentage. So far, Maryland is 50-19 in the 2010's for a .725 winning percentage.
• Maryland's 15-6 victory over Penn on April 14, 2009 was the program's 700th victory in 84 seasons of varsity men's lacrosse. The Terps join Johns Hopkins, Syracuse, Navy, Army and Cornell as the only programs with 700 or more Division I wins.
• Two things that make Maryland's accomplishment all the more impressive is that the Terps reached the 700-win plateau in just their 84th season. Only Syracuse reached win No. 700 in as few seasons, but it took the Orange 53 more games than Maryland. In fact, Maryland needed only 940 games to reach 700 wins and only Johns Hopkins needed fewer games (932) to hit the historic number, but the Blue Jays did so in their 105th season.
• Maryland's 18-6 win over the Colgate on May 4, 2013 extended the Terps' streak of double-digit win seasons to 11, which is the longest active streak in NCAA Division I men's lacrosse. (Special thanks to Patrick Stevens of the D1scource.com).
• There are only four programs with a current streak of at least five-straight 10-win seasons:
Maryland (11): 2013 (10-4), 2012 (12-6), 2011 (13-5), 2010 (12-4), 2009 (10-7), 2008 (10-6), 2007 (10-6), 2006 (12-5), 2005 (11-6), 2004 (13-3), 2003 (12-4)
Notre Dame (8): 2013 (11-4), 2012 (13-3), 2011 (11-3), 2010 (10-7), 2009 (15-1), 2008 (14-3), 2007 (11-4), 2006 (10-5)
Duke (7): 2013 (16-5), 2012 (15-5) 2011 (14-6), 2010 (16-4), 2009 (15-4), 2008 (18-2), 2007 ( 17-3)
North Carolina (5): 2013 (13-4), 2012 (11-6), 2011 (10-6), 2010 (13-3), 2009 (12-6)
• Cornell's string of seven-straight 10+ win seasons came to an end in 2012 with a 9-4 final mark. Virginia's streak of eight-consecutive seasons with 10+ wins ended in 2013 with a 7-8 record, while Siena saw its run of six 10-win seasons end with an 8-9 mark this season.
• Many school's refer to their sports programs as families, but the Maryland men's lacrosse program is truly a family affair. Since 2001, the Terps have had 13 sets of brothers, including three on this season's roster, don the red and black together for at least one season.

• The 2014 season is the first since 2000 that the Terps have not had a brother combination on the roster.
• Maryland has an 85-3-1 (.961) lifetime record in season openers dating back to the 1924 season. The Terps have won their last 19 openers and 26 of the last 27, with the only loss coming to Duke in 1993, when they fell to Duke 9-5 on March 6.
• After losing their 1925 opener to Yale, 5-3, the Terps went on to win 40 consecutive season openers from 1926 through 1967. The streak was broken when Maryland tied Princeton, 6-6, in the 1968 opener. Following the deadlock, Maryland went on to win its next 14 openers, giving the Terps a 54-0-1 record over a 57-year span (Maryland did not field a team in 1944 and 1945 due to World War II.)
• After beating Mount St. Mary's to open the 2013 season the Terps have an 20-game winning streak in season openers. Five of those wins came against Villanova (1994-98) and the last nine over Denver, Mount St. Mary's (three times), Air Force, Hobart, Duke, Georgetown (four times), Bellarmine (twice), Presbyterian, Detroit Mercy and Hartford. Over the 21-year stretch, Maryland outscored its foes 306-108 (an average score of 14.6-5.1) in those games.
• The Terps have not allowed more than seven goals to any opponent in a season opener over the last 21 years. Maryland has not allowed an opponent to score 10 or more goals in a season opener since Syracuse beat the Terps, 16-13 on March 9, 1983.
• Led by senior defender Michael Ehrhardt, four Maryland men's lacrosse student-athletes were chosen in the 2014 Major League Lacrosse collegiate draft.
• Ehrhardt was chosen seventh overall by the Charlotte Hounds, becoming the eighth Maryland player to be taken in the first round, joining Lee Zink (2004, 5th), Chris Passavia (2004, 6th), Joe Walters (2006, 1st), Bill McGlone (2006, 5th), Ray Megill (2007, 9th), Joe Cinosky (2008, 9th) and Jesse Bernhardt (2013, 4th).
• Senior midfielder Mike Chanenchuk was the next Terrapin off the board, also joining the Hounds as the 11th overall selection.
• The third Terp to be selected was senior goalie Niko Amato, becoming the first Terp to join the Florida Launch, with the 29th overall selection.
• The final Terp to be drafted was senior short-stick defensive midfielder Brian Cooper, who earned the distinction of being 2014's MLL equivalent of "Mr. Irrelevant" as the final selection of the draft, going with the 64th overall selection to the Chesapeake Bayhawks.
• Five Maryland men's lacrosse alumni were named to the 30-man roster for the U.S. National Team that will compete at the 2014 FIL World Championships from July 10-19 in Denver.
• Jesse Bernhardt (2013), Dan Burns (2011), Jeff Reynolds (2009), Drew Snider (2012) and Lee Zink (2004) made the team, which was selected from an original pool of 98 players through a seven-month selection process.
• Maryland's five selections are tied for the most of any college program with Johns Hopkins, which also has five alums among the 30-man roster.
• Four players have been named team captains for the 2014 season. The quartet, which was selected by a combination of team vote and coaches' input, consists of seniors Tyler Adelsberger, Niko Amato, Mike Chanenchukand Michael Ehrhardt.
• The University of Maryland's men's lacrosse team will compete in the Big Ten Conference beginning with the 2015 season, following an announcement from the conference office on June 3, 2013 that the Big Ten has secured six men's teams when Johns Hopkins was accepted as a sport affiliate member for men's lacrosse only beginning with the 2014-15 academic year to give the Big Ten six men's programs, joining Maryland, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State and Rutgers.
• The six programs that will comprise Big Ten men's lacrosse boast 56 national championships, with schools that have competed for more than a century. Johns Hopkins has been an independent since 1883 and leads all schools with 44 national championships. Maryland has claimed 11 national titles, while Rutgers has also won a national championship. The Scarlet Knights launched men's lacrosse in 1887, followed by programs starting in 1913 for Penn State, 1924 for Maryland and 1953 for Ohio State. Michigan instituted a men's lacrosse program in 2012. Maryland, Ohio State and Penn State each qualified for the NCAA Men's Lacrosse Championship in 2013, with the Buckeyes advancing to the quarterfinals.

The world has turned.
Im going to get it on the road with the silvertop, but ultimately this car will be powered by a 2azfe 2.4 litre all alloy vvti inline 4.
wow interesting...................
still got your parts sitting in a box in my garage dude..........
------------------>>>Need something welded locally??? Hit me up, I may just be able to help<<<------------------
BENT MECHANIX - Garage 20:
nice, should be a screamer, let me know if you need a hand.
looks like a build to keep my eye on
woooo camry motor lol
what do you have to mod for this one bud?
R&D Mechanical, Seaford SA - please visit www.rdmechanicalshop.com
Our introduction - Click here
Almost everything.
I dont even know what gearbox will fit it or go close, but Im keen just to work out out all the details.
think there is a pickup in the usa, a certain model of tacoma that has a bell that fits rwd layout, goes to a either a w or r box. clutch wise would depend on the bolt spacing and what its like originally, obviously the flywheel has its radius on the wrong side for the starter, still work, but noisy, use standard ecu/adaptronic, engine mounts are no biggy, looks like it has clearance to fit pretty well.
Yeah, Im looking into reverse mounted starters (which is the correct way around for this engine anyhow, and will suit the flywheel. I might make a hybrid bellhousing rather than machine motor after motor to accept a starter like a 4age. It will be low mounted if I do it from the bellhousing side so cleaner looking bay and lower centre of gravity, also more between the wheels.
Im fitting my AE111 ITBs to it, and will invest some good money in a really well made manifold for it. the inlet ports are like a more spaced out bigport flat sided oval, so the manifold will have to adapt the shape much like a bigport from the circular itb butterfly to the oval port. The throttles will need to be centred over the ports also, and can point upwards a few degrees to aim better at the port and clear the clutch master and brakes.
Still dunnio exactly what gearbox fits it. I just hope I can use the flywheel and clutch I have in the end.
The motor is obviously here now, and Ive assessed its condition. Im comfortable to say its almost 100 percent new. It has been run. It has very light carbon deposits in the exhaust manifold, the spark plugs are nice and golden, the ports are clean, the ignition coils have no corrosion, the clutch isnt worn, its just a perfect motor. It spins over super smooth, you can still feel light friction in the water pump from the seals before really being spun. There is no water in the motor and no sign of it. There is a crappy pricing gun sticker with a date on it on the sump. November 2007. Im guessing it was a demo car motor that got rear ended or dropped off the truck pre delivery, I cant imagine any other reason to remove a motor this fresh. I imagine if the motor had really gotten hot, it would have melted the sticker off the sump in a snap.
Some photos.
Check out how bad the factory collector is!

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a type of arthritis that affects the spine. Ankylosing means stiff or rigid, spondyl means spine, and itis refers to inflammation. The disease causes inflammation of the spine and large joints, resulting in stiffness and pain. The disease may result in erosion at the joint between the spine and the hip bone. This is called the sacroiliac joint. It may also cause bony bridges to form between vertebrae in the spine, fusing those bones. Bones in the chest may also fuse.
The cause of AS is not known, but researchers think that genes play a role. A gene called HLA-B27 occurs in over 95 percent of Caucasian-Americans who have AS, but only 50% of African-Americans who have the disease. However, some people with the HLA-B27 gene do not have AS.
AS is more common among people ages 17 to 35. It can occur in children and older adults as well. The disease affects more young men than women. It tends to run in families.
Symptoms of AS tend to go away and come back over periods of time. Symptoms can occur a bit differently in each person. The symptoms may include:
The symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis can be like other health conditions. Make sure to see your health care provider for a diagnosis.
The process starts with a medical history and a physical exam. Tests may also be done, such as:
Treatment will depend on your symptoms, your age, and your general health. It will also depend on how severe the condition is. The goal of treatment is to reduce pain and stiffness, prevent deformities, and maintain as normal a lifestyle as possible. Treatment may include:
Talk with your health care providers about the risks, benefits, and possible side effects of all medications.
Over time, a forward curve of the spine can develop with AS. Patients with AS are at great risk of thinning of the bones (osteoporosis). This can result in spinal fractures. AS can also lead to psoriasis, and inflammation of the eye, aortic valve, and intestinal tract.
There is no cure for AS, so it is important to work on a treatment plan with your health care provider. Work on lifestyle changes that can improve your quality of life. Stay active and keep up with exercise to reduce pain. A physical therapist can help you design an exercise plan and assist you in keeping good posture.
If your symptoms get worse or you have new symptoms, let your health care provider know.
Tips to help you get the most from a visit to your health care provider:
Vidant Health can connect you to health care professionals to help you understand your condition and guide you through the treatment process. Let's chat.

Anxiety Reduction
Many people react emotionally to things that never even happen. If they can rehearse the worst possible situation and think of ways to respond and deal with them, they can release and clear the emotions and be better prepared to best face whatever actually occurs.
Try this exercise, which is particularly helpful for people who experience a great deal of fear, worry, or anticipatory anxiety.
- Look ahead to a situation that is creating fear, anxiety, or worry in you.
- Imagine the worst possible things that could happen. Feel what those things would feel like in your body. Make it as real as possible.
- Plan now how you would respond if any of these things actually happened. How will you take responsibility for your well-being in this situation? What will you do to take care of yourself?
- Accept these scenarios as possibilities, then release them with gratitude for the learning they may bring. Focus your attention on the most positive and desirable scenario.

CANTERBURY coach Des Hasler and Josh Reynolds's manager Daryl Mather have agreed to meet the day after the collective bargaining agreement is formalised to discuss a new contract for the boom five-eighth, despite the Bulldogs' interest in Johnathan Thurston.
Reynolds is among six members of Canterbury's top squad coming off contract this year who have been advised that the club is comfortable for them to test their value on the transfer market. He is expected to attract big offers to play elsewhere next year.
With Thurston also off contract this year, the Bulldogs are among several clubs to have spoken to his manager and are believed to be prepared to offer up to $1 million for the star playmaker to return to Belmore.
While Penrith are believed to be willing to top that figure, a source close to the negotiations has told Fairfax Media that Thurston's preference, if he left North Queensland, would be to join the Bulldogs as he believes they have more chance of winning a premiership.
Thurston played for Canterbury
between 2002 and 2004, and was recently given a tour of the club's high-performance training centre by Hasler and Bulldogs chief executive Todd Greenberg.
However, Hasler and Greenberg have made it clear Reynolds is a priority. The dual premiership-winning coach has told Mather he wants to open negotiations as soon as the collective bargaining agreement between the NRL and the Rugby League Players' Association is finalised.
The 23-year-old, who was part of Laurie Daley's 22-man Emerging Blues squad that gathered in Sydney a fortnight ago, is understood to have already been earmarked as a target by at least two clubs, but it is likely he will remain a Bulldog given the club's commitment to retaining him.
"Josh is a local junior and we are very clear and keen for him to stay, and we will be talking to him and his manager in the next month or so, but we would be naive to think other clubs wouldn't be talking to some of our players who are off contract," Greenberg said.
With the Bulldogs not intending to sign a replacement for second-rower Corey Payne, who announced his retirement on Tuesday, the club has some room under the salary cap for Thurston but they will have to release other players to accommodate him.
Among those coming off contract at the end of the season are forwards Frank Pritchard, Greg Eastwood, Daniel Finucane and Josh Jackson, and halfback Trent Hodkinson, who missed the majority of last year through injury.
"We have got a few players off contract and we have said to all of them that if they want to go and have a look and test the market or just go and meet and greet some other people, you are more than welcome to," Greenberg said.
The Bulldogs agreed to a two-year contract extension with halfback Kris Keating in August last year, but have held off on re-signing Hodkinson. The club has an abundance of back-rowers following the arrival of Manly and Australian strike forward Tony Williams.
Former New Zealand lock Dene Halatau will also be vying with Pritchard, Eastwood, Jackson, Finucane, Martin Taupau and Tim Brown for a back-row place after being sidelined with injury for most of last season.
Payne would have been another option for Hasler to consider after enjoying his best season in the NRL last year but he felt he could not commit fully to the team due to his increasing off-field interests.

Wine in a Beer Keg!
Filed Under Wine Innovation
The MAS Wine Co., which brews its red and white wines MAS Vino and MAS Vino Blanco at the Jepson Winery in Hopland, CA, is seeking to spread the word about its unusual products. MAS distributes nearly all its wines in something near and dear to the beer brewers' and lovers' hearts — stainless steel kegs, a far cry from cork and bottle and screw tops in the wine domain.
"Through our colleagues in the beer industry, we've placed our red and white kegs in stores and restaurants in all of the Bay Area's nine counties, Eureka, Mendocino and Sacramento County. We're off to a great start," said MAS President Andy Woehl.
MAS is an 18-month-old startup with officers and investors based in San Francisco, Sacramento and Sonoma County. The company has a Web site and a mailing address in Cloverdale where its winemaker and production chief live.
"No bricks and mortar. Just wine," Woehl says.
The company's airtight, 15-liter kegs hold 20 bottles of wine and keep wine fresh for 60 days. The company is also introducing 11-liter kegs that hold 15 bottles of wine. The kegs are manufactured in Germany and reduce energy consumption and waste associated with packaging, delivering and storing glass bottles. The kegs are delivered in a just-in-time distribution system. The wines are blended with grapes grown in Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino counties.
"We went to the beer industry because they are the people who know all there is to know about selling beverages in kegs to a large customer base," Woehl said. The company's main product is wine by the glass from kegs directed at a target audience of young professionals 25-40 years old who are educated, interested in wine and eat out several times a week. The kegs are at two-dozen restaurants, hotels and other eating and drinking establishments in the Bay Area.

The U.S. military took "a giant leap in the right direction" according to Executive Director of San Diego Pride Dwayne Crenshaw when it announced Thursday that gay military personnel would be allowed to wear their uniforms at San Diego's LGBT Pride Festival and Parade this Saturday. The announcement came from the office of the deputy assistant secretary of Defense and informed personnel that they could wear their uniforms in the parade "provided service members participate in their personal capacity and ensure the adherence to military service standards of appearance and wear of the military uniform."
Saturday's parade marks the very first time that gay military personnel will be allowed to wear their uniforms in a pride parade, and it ensures that, from now on, all military personnel will be covered by the same policy (before the announcement, decisions not to allow gay personnel to wear their uniforms at pride events was being made by individual commands). Since military regulations bar personnel from wearing uniforms in a way that will "bring discredit" to America's imperial war machine, the Pentagon's move comes as definite, pinch-me proof that the repeal of "don't ask, don't tell" has actually happened.
