Why it's called the Spencer Room
Main house rooms are named after former owners of this property. The earliest records for this property show that the first home was built by Edmund Spencer (1826-1894), a harness maker in 1852. It was replaced by a home built by R. S. Oliver in 1873. Mr. Spencer is buried in Lenox at the Church on the Hill cemetery.
Praise for Hampton Terrace
...Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay with your family in your inn. For a moment I thought I had walked into a Christmas story film. It was beautiful and is now a cherished memory. I look forward to my next stay, whether winter, summer, fall or spring (Vivaldi).

How To Make Classic French Madeleines
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
Madeleines. That little French butter cake that most (non-French) people think of more as a cookie. They have a classy, literary reputation, having served as Proust's muse in his famous Remembrance of Things Past. Like most muses, however, madeleines appear to be simple but actually require a fair amount of patience and careful following of instructions. In the end, though, you are rewarded with a truly unique little cake, browned and crispy on the outside and spongy and soft on the inside. A perfect accompaniment to your afternoon cup of tea.
I don't think madeleines are for the inexperienced cook. They are a little tricky and need a fair amount of confidence to turn out just right. That said, I've tried to cover all the small details in this recipe so even if you're a fairly new cook, you can certainly still give these a try.
In this classic recipe, you would normally brown the butter slightly to add nuttiness. But browning butter just right can be challenging as it can quickly turn from nutty to burnt. If you're not confident with this skill, simply melt the butter and skip the browning part. Your madeleines will still be delicious.
Another barrier for making madeleines is that you need specific equipment, namely the scallop shell pans to bake them in, which is something most newer cooks don't usually have around. It's worth it to check around with your friends and family to see if someone has the pans to borrow. You can also pick them up at garage sales and they are available online though places like Amazon and Sur le Table. Try to get two as most recipes will make 2 dozen and it's a drag to have to wash and rebutter the pans between baking sessions. It also really helps to have a pastry brush to coat the pans with the butter and flour mixture.
I'm offering the classic lemon-scented madeleines here, but they do come in many flavors. Chocolate, rose, vanilla, lavender, and orange are all popular versions. Some people add mini chocolate chips and some people add a glaze, but I prefer them simple and straightforward.
Madeleines are delicious when eaten just from the oven and cooled until barely warm. They will keep for a day or two in an airtight container, but will start to lose that nice crisp texture after awhile. It's not the end of the world if this happens, but there is a reason those fancy restaurants used to send people home with fresh-from-the-oven madeleines: they are simply at their best when super fresh.
Many recipes say that the colder the dough is kept, the more likely it is that the madeleine will form the classic "bump" on the back. I experimented with freezing one baking tray and not freezing the other, and found that the madeleines baked on the unfrozen tray had a significantly smaller bump. So if that feature is important to you, be sure to freeze the pans and then get the filled pans in the oven right away. You can even go so far as to freeze the already filled pans for about 10 minutes before placing immediately in the oven.
The recipe below is loosely based on one from Julia Child. Like many madeleine recipes, it takes a slightly unusual approach in that you mix the flour, sugar, and eggs first and add the melted butter last. (In most baling, the butter is usually creamed with the sugar, then the eggs are added and the flour stirred in last.) The batter also needs to rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour to chill and hydrate the four. You can leave it for longer than that, even overnight.
How to Make Classic French Madeleines
What You Need
4 oz (1 stick), plus 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup white sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus 1 tablespoon, divided
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
Powdered sugar (optional)
Small sauce pan
Small bowl
2 medium-sized mixing bowls
Measuring cups and spoons
2 madeleine pans
Pastry brush
Small sieve for dusting with powdered sugar, optional
- Melt the butter. Melt the butter in a small sauce pan. If you feel you can get it slightly toasty brown, go right ahead and do so by leaving it to bubble in the pan until it smells toasty and starts to color. Just remember that the butter will turn very quickly from toasty to burnt and that it will continue to color after it is off the heat unless you pour it into a new container. Spoon 3 tablespoons of butter into a small bowl or cup and set aside. Let the rest of the butter cool slightly.
- Prepare the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients in separate bowls. In a medium bowl, whisk together one cup of the flour and the sugar, and set aside. In another medium bowl, whisk the two eggs with the vanilla, salt, lemon juice, and lemon zest until the eggs are frothy.
- Combine the dry and wet ingredients. Add the eggs to the flour. Using a spatula, stir until just combined. Add the 4 ounces of melted butter and continue to stir. It may take a minute for the butter to blend into the mixture but do not over mix.
- Rest the batter. Cover the bowl with a plate (or plastic wrap) and place in the refrigerator to rest at least one hour and up to overnight.
- Prepare the pans. Add the remaining one tablespoon of flour to the 3 tablespoons reserved butter and stir to combine. Using a pastry brush, brush the interiors of the shells with the butter-flour mixture so that they are well coated. Place the pans in the freezer for at least an hour.
- Preheat the oven and fill pans. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the batter from the refrigerator and one pan from the freezer. Fill each well in the madeleine pan with 1 tablespoon of the batter. Remove the other pan and fill in the same way.
- Bake the madeleines. Place both pans on a baking sheet for easy handling and place in the oven. Check after 8 minutes and rotate plans. Check again 5 minutes later. The madeleines should be browning around the edges and puffed up a little in the middle. Using your forefinger, press lightly on the center hump -- when the madeleines are finished baking, it should spring back at your touch.
- Cool and dust with sugar. Remove the madeleines from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Using a fork, gently loosen the madeleines from their molds and then tip the whole pan out onto a cooling wrack or tea towel. Once cool, dust lightly with powdered sugar and serve. If you are freezing or storing the madeleines, do not dust with the sugar until you are about to serve.
- To store. Store cooled madeleines in an airtight container for a few days or freeze them in a double wrapping of plastic wrap for several months. Let the cakes defrost before dusting with sugar.

"something most newer cooks don't usually have around" I'm French and have been cooking for more than 25 years, and this is the first time I have been told that I should have Madeleine pans. I am a little shocked by this oversight on my part! ;-)
But worst... I have never had a Madeleine! Your pictures make me think I should remedy that ASAP!
Yum and thank you. I've never made them, yet they are so simple and delicious. I'll have to remedy that soon.
Perhaps it's thanks to the nonstick coating on my madeleine pan, or my own laziness, but i never wash and rebutter the thing before adding a new batch. I slip the fresh madeleines out, run cold water over the underside of the pan and pop it in the freezer to return to baseline cold.
They always turn out fine for me. (it seems like kind of a waste to keep multiples of what is most definitely specialty bakeware... unless you use it like, weekly)
I love making Madeleines! I recently re-read the portion of Proust about madeleines and memory, and it was the TEA that his aunt drank that reminded him of his childhood, and the flavor of the madeleine crumbs that he dunked in the tea. She drank lime flower tea, which is also linden tea. For some reason this made me so happy! I love linden flowers in springtime. So I baked some linden tea leaves right into my madeleines. They were delicious, with a sweet, haunting springtime flavor.
I agree with danielle.s. I too have a non-stick madeleine pan and I think of madeleines as on of the easiest/quickest things I can bake. If a friend is in the neighborhood and is going to stop by for tea I can get them together at the last minute.
I thought the bump was undesirable? I found a simple madeleine recipe online when I was a "new cook" (yes, I saw madeleine pans and bought one - should have gotten two as they were cheap). They were not at all hard (although the batter was significantly less thick than the recipe pictured above) and still turned out crisp around the edges and soft on the inside. Although I think it was leavened with baking powder instead of just eggs.
Whatever the case, they tasted good and looked good, so who cares if they were "classic" or not?
These madeleines look precious! I bake madeleines all the time and have baked them in several different flavors. But I hardly ever get the bumps. :S
I love madeleines! I always buy them from Starbucks, but now I can make them at home. It's so easy to make.
My batch only yielded 17... I wonder how this will turn out...
I used one nonstick pan and one stainless pan and the baking times were very different. Definitely had a better outcome with the nonstick pan. I couldn't get the ones in the stainless pan to get the nice lightly browned edges. They're all delicious though!
I just made these for the first time yesterday.So so tasty! The only downside for me was that they turned out a little dens for my liking.I loved the flavor so much I wanted to try again.This time I added 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder to the flour and it turned out perfect!
I made these tonight and followed the recipe to the letter. Fabulous flavor but a little dense. No puff! Will follow the advise above and add the baking powder. Really, really love this recipe! By the way, you can brown butter in the microwave in a glass bowl. Make sure and put a plate on top so the butter won't splatter. Cook on high for 1 1/2 minute intervals and then shorter intervals until the butter reaches a light brown color. It will brown a bit further once you remove it. It's a foolproof way to brown butter. Works every time!
I used to work for a French chef and one of the tips that he told me was to let the batter come to room temperature before baking.
I am an experienced baker...and my Madeleines, using the recipe, turned out flat as a pancake! (No bump and not spongey!) I could see from the ingredients that there was no leavening agent (other than a pinch of salt) and as I suspected the Madeleines are not the soft, spongey, cake-like madeleine I'm used to having. Has the team that submitted the recipe inadvertently left out an ingredient or two?
My nephew gave me on M. pan for Christmas and it took me ages to get around to trying my first batch. I, too, had been warned how difficult they were to get just right. Having never eaten them before I did a search afterward to find out what the perfect M. would be like. It described mine perfectly! I gained all kinds of confidence and have been whipping them up every now and then, since. They're a pleasure to make and not at all difficult. Great tips above...the chilling/room temperature advice. Great posting, thanks!
Hey there! I've tried out this recipe and the madeleines came out beautifully! I was wondering though, where can I get the smaller shell shaped pan? I've tried to search for it but so far nothing's come up :( I would really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction to where I can buy it from, thank you!!

Marc Anthony Gossip
Marc Anthony gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Marc Anthony & Chloe Green are back together
They were said to have broken up a few months ago. Now check them out in St Tropez holding hands, clearly back together. Marc Anthony and Chloe Green were first photographed together as a couple in February. By the end of April it was over. And now not over. She's 22. He's 44. She has way more money than he does. Full Story
23 > 16
Sharpshooter Images/ Splash, Jason Merritt/ Getty
44 - 21 = 23 21 - 5 = 16 23 > 16. That's the difference in age between Marc Anthony, 44, and his new girlfriend Chloe Green, 21, and his children with Jennifer Lopez, now 5. Chloe is the daughter of Topshop billionaire Sir Philip Green. She and Anthony were at Disneyland on Tuesday with his twins, clearly a couple now. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
Welcome back to those of you returning from long weekend in Canada. It was a regular work day here yesterday. For up to date posts on the Tom & Katie situation, please scroll down or click here, here, and here to get caught up. It's a fluid situation that could turn into a bullsh-t free-for-all too that, so far, seems to be totally one-sided. At this point, Tom Cruise can't even return a serve.
I was at the grocery the other day and could not recognise anyone on the covers of the tabloids. For the next few weeks though, aliens and missionaries are replacing teen moms and bachelors. Interestingly enough, last year, exactly at this time, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony announced their separation. Read Full Intro
Marc kept the Beckhams
Alberto E. Rodriguez /Mark Davis /Frederick M. Brown/ Getty Images
David Beckham was honoured last night in LA at the 27th Anniversary Sports Spectacular. His friend Marc Anthony presented his award. The Beckhams were once tight with both Marc and JLo. It's been a while since Victoria and JLo have been seen together publicly. Marc kept the Beckhams in the divorce then? It makes sense. Full Story
JLo's love tweet and Whitney, but no Bobby
Jennifer Lopez tweeted this photo of herself with that backup dancer earlier this week to commemorate Valentine's Day, their first one together, and their only one together as not man and wife. She is totally marrying him. She is totally diving right into that dumpster and pulling out her 4th husband. Full Story
He went with a model
While JLo decided to celebrate her release from marriage by slumming it with a backup dancer who, on his best day, and I am being generous, is no more than a 5.5, Marc Anthony went with a model. And he's flaunting it all over the social network. This is Marc with Shannon De Lima as posted on his Facebook. Full Story
Punished for slumming
New cover of Us Weekly is about Jennifer Lopez. According to the magazine, Marc Anthony is so pissed about her dating Casper Smart (aren't we all???) he wants to rearrange their custody agreement to punish her. Anthony had supposedly previously agreed to primary custody for JLo. Full Story
JLo doesn't want to talk about love
Neilson Barnard/Getty
What is this world? Where Jennifer Lopez, who loves loving love, doesn't want to talk about love? That would be like Mimi wearing flats, walking briskly and steadily towards the driver's side of a car and opening the door herself. Inconceivable.But there was JLo yesterday at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut to promote her fashion and home collection for Kohl's, demurring at the mention of her love life, insisting that she's no longer in the business of gushing. Full Story
Marc will be grovelling
TMZ posted photos yesterday purportedly of Marc Anthony with Jennifer Lopez in Long Island. As you know, she was the one who pushed forward with the break and the announcement. He was trying to hold on. And he still wants to hold on, supposedly in touch repeatedly, at times soft and pleading, at other times hostile, accusatory, and borderline abusive. Full Story
I don't know what it says on an iPhone, but on my Blackberry, when the phone rings, it's either "answer" or "ignore". This is Jennifer Lopez on the Georgia set of What To Expect When You're Expecting looking down at her cellphone and my first assumption was - it's Marc, IGNORE, let it go to voice. Full Story
JLo is free
Jennifer Lopez spent the weekend in Miami, part of it luxuriating on a yacht in a bikini, ready for the next after formally announcing her divorce from Marc Anthony. It's freedom. And relief. And, for us, it's as you've all been agreeing, very good for gossip. This is the most you've cared about her in years. Full Story
Video Assumption: JLo & Marc
How late do you think Ben Affleck stayed up last night pleading with his wife Jennifer Garner to let him back in the house? It was reported yesterday, in case you missed it, which I'm sorry if you did because it was the best story ever, that JLo's ma Guadalupe, emailed Ben for relationship advice for her daughter. Full Story
This Means War: JLo vs Marc AND Taupe
Us Weekly has an amazing article today with more details about Jennifer Lopez's split from Marc Anthony. Like amazing, amazing, amazing. Whether or not it's true, it's still amazing, amazing, amazing. According to the magazine, JLo's ma, Guadalupe, out of concern for her daughter, emailed Ben Affleck for advice on what to do about her crumbling marriage. Full Story
JLo: who's next
Like I said in the original post on Friday about the JLo/Marc Anthony break up – click here if you missed it – when Jennifer Lopez is done, she is DONE. She falls out of it fast, she gets over it even faster. In fact, we'll probably spend more time analysing her split than she will. Full Story

As mentioned yesterday in Non-Sequiturs, the white-shoe law firm of Milbank Tweed, in a recent press release about its new partnership class, gave a special shout-out to Atara Miller. It identified Miller as "likely the only Orthodox Jewish woman partner at a major Wall Street firm" (emphasis in the original).
The release continued: "Milbank has four other Orthodox partners who cope with the same issues, but each of them has a wife to run the household and children, while Ms. Miller takes on those duties at home."
A big shot in Biglaw, and a baleboste to boot — that's nice, very nice. But is it accurate to assert that Miller is unique?

12th March 2014
The 2014 British Gas Swimming Championships took place in the newly-refurbished Tollcross International Swimming Centre, which will be host to the swimming competition during the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.
The epitome of high performance swimming, the British Championships creates a platform for outstanding results including personal bests, new national records, and selection for Glasgow 2014.
Nearly 600 competitors travelled from all corners of the UK to swim to win this prestigious event.
Races in both able-bodied and Para-Swimming took place over six days with heats sessions taking place in the morning and finals in the evening.
This event provides fast paced action and electrifying atmosphere for the sports fan. The British Gas Swimming Championships is a fantastic event to engage both the swimming community and sports enthusiast.
Here are few things you may not know about the British Gas Swimming Championships.
- The 2014 British Championships was the first time the event has been held outside England.
- Ponds Forge International Sports Centre has hosted the event the most times with 2013 the seventh staging in Sheffield. Manchester Aquatics Centre is second in that list, having hosted the British Champs five times.
- Multi-classification Disability events were first integrated into the British Championships in 2003.
- The last disability world record set at the event was Ellie Simmonds's time of 3:08.14 in the MC 200m Individual Medley final at the 2012 Championships in London. It was an SM6 world record and the first world record to be set at London Aquatics Centre,
- The last able-bodied world set at the event was Jo Jackson's time of 4:00.66 in the 400m Freestyle final at the 2009 Championships in Sheffield.

New Year's Resolution: Eat more Cheese!
New Year's Resolution: Eat more Cheese!
During the first part of the year we make plans to take better care of ourselves: we try to go to the gym on a regular basis, we write ambitious to-do lists, we aim to get more sleep, we cut back on sugar and other carbs, we walk up stairs instead of taking the elevator, we schedule that overdue dentist appointment, and many people try to quit smoking. We all mean well but we can easily fall back into old patterns.
One of the easier resolutions to keep is to eat more cheese. By doing so you will be taking better care of yourself, you may even sleep better, you will likely cut back on other emptier calories. You may feel more like walking up the stairs, your dentist will notice your healthier teeth and gums, if you are unable to quit smoking it should offer some comfort knowing that the CLA derived from cheese has been shown to be an effective cancer fighter, and if you do head to the gym you will be a little more energized going in and you will recognize better results coming out. All this because you are eating a little more cheese!
However not just any old cheese.
When I update my picks for Max's Especially Healthy Plate I make sure that each cheese in the collection is crafted from milk that has not been compromised by excessive heat treatment, as in pasteurization. There are plenty of good nutrients in the pasteurized varieties but not quite as many as you will get from the raw versions. Some of the nutrients are destroyed by pasteurization while others are far less bio-available. The fat soluble vitamins are reduced significantly. According to recent studies conducted in Barcelona up to 80% of the vitamins A and D are lost in heat treatment. Whatever vitamin C may have been in the milk is zapped, the B vitamins are reduced, and some of the minerals that would have been chelated to the milk proteins are no longer available; the proteins that would enable their transport having been denatured by the high heat of pasteurization.
Again, there are plenty of nutrients in the pasteurized cheeses too, just not quite enough to hold up to the standards of my Especially Healthy Plate.
Do yourself some good and eat more cheese in 2014.
Max McCalman

The fifth edition of the Racer Cup turned out to become a breakthrough race for Balz Weber. The former U23 World Cross Country Champion found a nurturing home in BMC Mountainbike Racing Team which gave him back psychological and physiological strength. Balz stepped it up race after race in 2011. He arrived at the world-class level this weekend by leaving behind current World Champion José-Antonio Hermida (Multivan Merida).
"I went all-out from the very beginning", commented Balz on his furious first kilometres riding along in the lead group amongst riders such as Hermida, Lukas Flückiger (Trel World Racing), or Martin Fanger (Giant). It wasn't any different for his competition. The field quickly busted into pieces and Balz found himself alone in fourth position. At the front, race winner Flückiger and local hero Fanger rode in a class of their own.
Strong mind = strong body
"It was my head that made the difference today. Even though I was maxed out, I forced myself to think positively. This way I was able to close the gap on José in the final stage of the race and surpassed him to take third by the finish. Today's race gave me great morale", said the 30-year-old looking forward to his upcoming altitude training in the Engadin Alps.
DNF for Tamararcaz and Gallati
BMC Mountainbike Racing Team riders Julien Tamararcaz and Patrik Galati did not have a good day. Julien's race ended before it even started. His chain broke at the start. Patrik came down to Engelberg from altitude training with the Swiss national team and suffered from corresponding physiological strains. He listened to his body and dropped out.
European Marathon Championships: 13th place for Moos
A few valleys further East from Engelberg, Alexandre Moos faced Europe's best marathon mountainbikers at the continental championships in KLeinzell, Austria. He found himself in the lead group in the early stages but later missed the decisive attack at kilometre 60 (of 100) and fell back to 13th after fighting cramps in the final kilometres. Alexey Medvedev (RUS) became European Champion ahead of Jukka Vastaranta (FIN) and bronze medal winner Tim Böhme (GER).

As adorable as I think picnic baskets are, I find that I can never fit all--or even half--of the food and drinks I'm bringing into the basket. No matter what size they are. So unless you're just bringing some cheese and sandwiches, it always seems easier to me to bring everything in a reusable bag.
is it just me, or is that last one a RIDICULOUSLY good deal?
I don't know about you, but I wouldn't take porcelain plates & real glass wineglasses Williams-Sonoma) on a picnic. Although I noticed the glasses from PicnicTime (I have one of their backpacks with acrylic wineglasses) are also true glass but the plates are melamine....
Haha, that last one is hilarious, but for the price I'm sure it is a cheap piece of shit (which I especially love, because it is trying to look so fancy).
I love the one with the straps for the blanket, and the first one is adorable, but I feel like it would be cheaper and cuter to DIY one with a basket form the goodwill. They always have so many baskets,because turns out a lot more people like the idea of a picnic, than have the motivation to go on picnics. It seems simple to get one, get a nice piece of fabric and some thin batting, and make a more custom version of #1. Or use one of the plethora of patterns out there for garden totes and just switch it up a bit to hold beers and silverware.

Google Drive is finally here. It offers the promise of accessing files, even large ones, from the cloud. With Google Drive, you can create new documents, spreadsheets and presentations, and share with others.
There is the suggestion of collaborative work, by two or more, on the same documents simultaneously. In reality, that is rarely feasible. Well, it is difficult to do productively. Shared access is useful and convenient for meetings and small work groups though.
As with Google Docs, one may search by keyword, and filter by file type, owner or file size. Over 30 file types are accessible from your browser. This includes HD video, Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop—this part is key: even if you don't have the program installed on your computer!
Google Drive may be used on a variety of computers and devices. It is accessible with PCs and Macs, and Android, now. iPhone and iPad support is "coming soon".
Privacy control
There is decent granularity in file access control. One may share files or folders publicly, or with specified individuals, and choose who may view, edit or comment on content.
The first 5 GB of storage is free of charge.
The fate of Google Docs
Perhaps you are thinking,
This seems so similar to Google Docs functionality…?
I was too. Apparently that was by intent, as word has it that Google Drive will replace Google Docs for all users:
Precisely because Drive is just Docs with a new logo, Docs is being phased out. The site still works for now and will continue to work for months, but Google is pushing users away from the Docs URL and app and towards Drive.
I had noticed Docs was prompting me to try Drive recently. I suspect this was the reason. The URL will change from
http://docs.gooogle.com to
http://drive.google.com. The final changeover date has not been announced yet.
For enterprise
Google Apps users can opt-in for Google Drive. Security includes two-step authentication, encrypted connection to Google's servers and the same sharing controls as for non-enterprise users. Reliability will be reinforced with simultaneous replicated storage for documents.
Cost Comparison
How does Google Drive compare to other cloud storage services? The primary comparison of interest is between Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive and Dropbox. This is not so easy to decide, due in large part to each individual's needs.
The most comprehensive write-up I found was an article in Norwegian language publication NRKbeta, Price war in the Cloud. It compared a wider variety of cloud services, both free versions and cost for extra space, including Amazon Cloud Drive, Box, Jotta and the rumored Facebook cloud storage. Ubuntu One is mentioned in the comments. The universal language of data storage technology, and perhaps some help from Google Translate, is all that is required to understand most of the article.
Via the rumor mill: Google tablet news
According to Digitimes, and not confirmed yet by any official company release: Google's 7-inch tablet PC, which Google developed with Asustek Computer, will ship in June 2012. An initial quantity of 600,000 units is expected. Possibly.

Casmus has been head athletic trainer at Catawba College since July 1990.
He has overseen the care of student athletes while also teaching in the physical education/athletic training area. He has also been instrumental in fundraising for the athletic training program to add key equipment and make other improvements. Casmus has spearheaded several community relations projects for Catawba's student athletic trainers, including an annual Red Cross Blood Drive. He has authored several articles published in peer-reviewed journals and has made numerous presentations on a variety of topics in sports medicine, both locally and nationally.
Casmus earned his undergraduate degree in health education from Temple University in Philadelphia and his graduate degree in exercise and sport sciences from the University of Arizona in Tucson.

It reflects a lifetime of dedication to the association and the field of athletic training at the national, district and local levels.
Casmus was named the NCATA College/University Athletic Trainer of the year in 2003 and 2008. He has been recognized nationally with the NATA Service Award (2005) and the NCAA Division II Athletic Trainer of the Year (2007).
He and his wife, the former Teresa Moore, live in Salisbury and are parents of son Will.

SOMERSET, N.J. – Saint Elizabeth senior midfielder Meghan Murphy scored a team-high nine goals for the second straight game, leading the Screaming Eagles to a 17-7 victory in non-conference lacrosse action at Soccer Centers on a chilly Thursday afternoon.
CSE (2-0) begins the season with consecutive victories for the first time in program history (the Screaming Eagles started lacrosse just four seasons ago).
Screaming Eagles Senior Dina Toledo got the scoring started on Thursday afternoon, netting an unassisted score at 22:05 to ignite a 3-0 CSE run. Murray followed with a pair of goals before Cedar Crest (0-4) broke through with a free-position goal at midway through the half.
Toledo answered with her first two goals of the 2013 season and an unassisted score by classmate Cassidy Crane helped the Screaming Eagles open up a 6-1 lead.
The Screaming Eagles took a 7-3 lead into halftime after a goal from Christina Rios, off a pass from Crane, in the final two minutes.
CSE controlled the action for much of the first 30 minutes, outshooting Cedar Crest 23-11 while holding a 18-7 edge in ground balls.
Murray, who leads the team with 18 goals this season, scored twice to start the second half and the Screaming Eagles opened up a comfortable 9-3 lead after Toledo finished off a pass from Christina Rios for her third goal of the afternoon.
The Screaming Eagles again held the offensive advantage in the second half (17-10 lead in the shot category) on the way to its second win of the young season.
Murray tied her season high with the nine goals and added a game-high 10 ground balls and six caused turnovers. Toledo finished with four goals while Crane and Christina Rios both added a goal and an assist apiece.
CSE goalie Barbara Beresova posted five saves in net for her second win of the season.
The Screaming Eagles travel to Long Island on Saturday, facing the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy at 1 p.m.

text: Here's a crazy tidbit of info: I have never attempted yoga! Despite the overabundance of yoga studios in Portland and the fact that I could take free classes at my local co-op, I still shy away from this popular form of soul-centering exercise. Maybe it's because I prefer to exercise by myself. Maybe it's because I am a bit uncoordinated. I really don't know… A few of my friends have suggested I give yoga a try since I could certainly use a bit of calm in my life. Now I am overwhelmed with options and have no idea where to start! Ideally I would like to try a form of yoga that will calm me but also make me break a sweat and help tone my core. Does that exist? I am hoping my readers can guide me and offer some advice or suggestions? Please?! Thanks!

Thousands of people flocked to the corner of Haight and Ashbury during the Summer of Love, but few saw the unfolding phenomenon as clearly as did Gene Anthony. From his apartment one block up the hill, he witnessed the extraordinary pilgrimage of young people from across the country as they trooped to San Francisco in search of answers, approval and love, and he captured the compelling vignettes through his telling lens. Anthony's photographic talent, subjects and well-deserved acclaim extend far beyond the psychedelic period, but his ability to capture a mood on a face or the essence of an era from a simple street sign was recognized and refined during that time. His photographs have, in turn, become the myriad faces of the Summer of Love.

I've been thinking lately about the size of the grip on my bows. One time I would have said 'smaller the better' but after shooting my Mach X I'm not so sure.
What do you guy's prefer?
I've been thinking lately about the size of the grip on my bows. One time I would have said 'smaller the better' but after shooting my Mach X I'm not so sure.
What do you guy's prefer?
thin and narrow feels the best and gives me better groups
'14 ChillR 28.5"/74# Extreme Recon sight,Schaffer Opposition rest,LS modular stab, Beman ICS Hunter 340
I have had all three listed I shoot the best with a small thin grip.

Need a string set pm or email me @ email@example.com
or check us out @ http://bowstringdepot.com
A long long time ago when I first started shooting compounds I had a Browning Cobra, which was basically a wood recurve with a couple wheels on the end.
Got my first Martin Firecat and went for the large high grip option they had back then, in part because it felt recurve'ish in grip and I thought a full more form fitting grip helped cradle the bow better and more solid
When I got my '96 Firecat I opted for the bit smaller medium grip that allowed bow to settle in pocket better, as I had started to realize that even with a relaxed hand, that more solid full fit of first Firecat, also created some light torquing of the bow.
Now I have the standard (I consider small) grip on the Bengal and find it to be the most forgiving of slight grip/hand movement or changes.
Got the '96 Firecat out just a couple days ago and it's medium wood grip felt like I was holding a 2x4 with rounded edges. There's no way I could get myself to take a file to it and ruin that nice checkering and Matrin logo engraved into the wood, so if I start shooting it much again, think I'll just do like my Hoyt shooting friend, remove the grips altogether and run a couple layers of grip wrap/tape around the riser.

Smaller the better. We all know that the biggest detriment to accuracy is the shooter so the less contact I (shooter) make with the bow the better.

i like medium.it fits good and makes me feel like i dont have to grip my bow.it just sits therea and dont move.well besides my really shaky hands
I used to prefer the medium, until I got my new bows this year. Took me a while to get used to the new thin grips, but now that I have, my shooting has improved. And to think, I used to love my old "M" bow's wooden grip. Not even sure I could shoot it anymore.lol

Yeah, I know I'm grumpy and opinionated.
Thin and narrow, like the Silencer.
Wish the Diamond outlaw/fugitive/dead eye had a thin grip as it shoots fine, just too big of a grip for me.
Probably going to get the bow madness.
What is thick? And what is thin? I think the wood grips on the mathews looks ugly, that would be a thick grip to me. I like the grip on my Alien.

Investigators continue probe into shooting death of two Cleveland cousins
Rowan County Sheriff's Investigators have released few details days after two Cleveland cousins were shot to death. Daniel Carlton Redman, 21, and William Thomas Redman, 20, were shot and found dead inside a pickup outside a home on Hildebrand Road late Saturday night.
Some family members have said via social media sites the cousins were in the wrong place at the wrong time and others say they were tangled in a longstanding dispute over a dog, although law enforcement officials haven't confirmed a dispute.
Investigators met with Rowan County District Attorney Brandy Cook Monday regarding the investigation. No details have been released as to how or if Cook will proceed with formal charges. No one has been charged. The investigation is ongoing.
Authorities received a 911 call around 10:10 p.m. at 1025 Mountain Road, Cleveland. The caller told 911 dispatchers there were several men at the residence with guns. The caller also said shots had been fired and an orange and black Ford F-350 pickup was seen leaving the residence heading toward Carson Road.
Dispatchers received a call from 520 Hildebrand Road, Salisbury, at about 10:25 p.m. The caller told dispatchers there were two gun shot victims at the location in an orange and black pickup. Daniel and William Redman were already dead when investigators arrived. Hildebrand Road is between Sherrills Ford Road and Statesville Boulevard off N.C. 801 in western Rowan County.
Investigators continue to conduct interviews, collect and analyze evidence in an effort to establish the chain of events that lead to this incident, a statement said. The Rowan County Sheriff's Office is being assisted by the State Bureau of Investigation.
A relative who asked she not be named said William Redman, whose family and friends called him "Wilbur," worked at Airgas National Welders. The relative said William was a "kind kid" who was always willing to help others. She said he attended a church just around the corner from his home and often walked his younger brother there.
A Post reporter went to William Redman's home where his mother, Deanna, declined comment.
Daniel Redman was known by many as "NuNu" and worked as a truck driver and mechanic at Peeples Trucking. The same relative said Daniel also attended church regularly and the cousins were raised in "good homes."

Obama to address economy, 'fiscal cliff' Friday
President to make first post-election comments
Three days after being re-elected, President Barack Obama will deliver a statement on the economy Friday, two administration officials said Thursday.
The 1:05 p.m. ET statement in the White House's East Room will serve as an opportunity to address some of the big issues that Washington will tackle in the next few months -- including staving off the so-called fiscal cliff -- and to outline his priorities moving forward.
An official schedule released by the White House Thursday said the statement would address "the action we need to take to keep our economy growing and reduce our deficit."
CBO warns of fiscal cliff risk
Earlier on Thursday, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimated the economic punch of different parts of the cliff -- a series of spending cuts and tax increases that start taking effect in January.
They include reductions in both defense and non-defense spending; the expiration of the Bush tax cuts; the end of a payroll tax holiday and extended unemployment benefits; and the onset of reimbursement cuts to Medicare doctors.
Congress may choose to avert the cliff in whole or in part after what are expected to be fraught negotiations between President Obama and Congress, particularly House Republicans.
The fiscal cliff as a whole, if it went into effect for all of next year, could result in a drop of 0.5 percent in real gross domestic product, according to the CBO. And that contraction could push unemployment to 9.1 percent by the end of 2013.
The report looks at the short-term impact of different policy decisions that Congress may make to avoid parts of the cliff.
For example, Congress could choose to protect 27 million taxpayers from paying the Alternative Minimum Tax and extend the Bush tax cuts along with other expiring tax cuts. Such a move could boost real growth by 1.4 percent and increase employment by 1.8 million by the end of 2013, while adding $330 billion to the deficit, CBO estimates.
If Congress chose to do the same thing but not extend the Bush tax cuts on income over $200,000 ($250,000 if married), as President Obama has proposed, that could boost output by 1.3 percent and add 1.6 million jobs. The deficit under such a scenario would be $288 billion higher.
Should lawmakers opt to cancel the non-defense spending cuts and avert the scheduled payment cuts to Medicare doctors, real GDP could be 0.4 percent higher and employment boosted by 400,000 by the end of 2013. Those policies would add $40 billion to next year's deficit.
If the fiscal cliff were averted altogether -- minus an extension of the payroll tax holiday and expanded unemployment benefits -- real GDP would be 2.2 percent higher and there would be 2.7 million more jobs next year. The deficit would increase by $395 billion.
At the same time, the country can't afford to put off fiscal tightening for too long. The growth in federal debt, which is already at its highest point since 1950, would continue to rise much faster than the economy -- and that would hurt growth.
"Such a path for federal debt could not be sustained indefinitely, so policy changes would be required at some point," the CBO said.
Party leaders still disagree on taxes
Even after the election, Democratic and Republican congressional leaders continue to sharply disagree over the key issue of whether top tax rates should be raised to help resolve the looming crisis.
Republicans said higher rates would damage the economy, while Democrats said it was the only equitable way to tackle the debt.
In a formal speech on Capitol Hill Wednesday, House Speaker John Boehner sounded conciliatory even as he made it clear higher tax rates would be unacceptable to Republicans who control the House.
"For the purposes of forging a bipartisan agreement that begins to solve the problem, we're willing to accept new revenue, under the right conditions," Boehner said.
The speaker then insisted the revenue come from "a growing economy, energized by a simpler, cleaner, fair tax code, with fewer loopholes and lower rates for all," and not from higher rates on higher earners.
As part of a broader compromise, Boehner said that tax reform must be coupled with "concrete steps to put our country's entitlement programs on a sounder financial footing."
A Senate Democratic leadership aide complained Boehner's approach on revenue -- which might not require the wealthy to pay more -- was "insufficient" and would not raise enough money to have a significant impact on the deficit.
Earlier Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said that he and Boehner had a "pleasant conversation" by phone and that he didn't expect either man to "draw any lines in the sand" ahead of negotiations.
But Reid insisted several times that raising taxes on wealthier Americans has to be part of any compromise to resolve the crisis and, emboldened by election gains in the House and Senate, Reid said Republicans "can't push us around" on the issue.
"There was a message sent to us by the American people, based on the campaign," Reid said at a news conference. "People making all this money have to contribute a little bit more."

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (April 10, 2013)—Better Lucky, the upset winner of the Grade I Matriarch last Nov. 25 at Betfair Hollywood Park, will make her first start of 2013 in the $300,000 Jenny Wiley Stakes Saturday at Keeneland.
A Grade I for older fillies and mares at 1 1/16 miles on turf, the Jenny Wiley is the ninth of 12 races. Scheduled post time is 2:05 p.m. PDT. Track gates at Betfair Hollywood Park will open at 10:15 a.m. for simulcasts.
Owned by Godolphin Racing LLC Lessee and trained by Tom Albertrani, Better Lucky prevailed by one length at 35-1 in the Matriarch, making her the longest priced winner in the history of the grass event that annually – along with the Hollywood Derby – anchors the final day of the Turf Festival.
A 4-year-old daughter of Ghostzapper, the 2004 Horse of the Year who broke his maiden first time out at Hollywood Park for the late Hall of Fame trainer Bobby Frankel, and the Seeking the Gold mare Sahara Gold, Better Lucky has won four of nine and banked $438,950.
The Wiley field also includes Quiet Oasis, who won both the Grade III Wilshire Handicap and the Grade II Royal Heroine Mile over the Betfair Hollywood Park turf in 2012.
Trained by Ben Cecil for owner J. Paul Reddam, Quiet Oasis, an Irish bred daughter of Oasis Dream and the Sunday Silence mare Silent Heir, has won four of 11. The 5-year-old has earned $280,379.
The Saturday program at Keeneland includes four other graded races – two of them Grade I's, topped by the $750,000 Toyota Blue Grass for 3-year-olds. Scheduled for 1 1/8 miles over Poly Track, the Blue Grass is one of the final major preps around the country for the Kentucky Derby, which will be run May 4 at Churchill Downs.
From inside out, the field for the Jenny Wiley: Centre Court, Julien Leparoux rides, 120 pounds; Old Tune, Joel Rosario, 120; Better Lucky, Eddie Castro, 123; Ausus, Shaun Bridgmohan, 118; Quiet Oasis, Mario Gutierrez, 118; Samitar, Javier Castellano, 118; Abaco, Garrett Gomez, 118; Daisy Devine, James Graham, 120 and Hard Not to Like, Joe Rocco, Jr., 120.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (July 23, 2012)—Suggestive Boy, who was a sharp second in his United States debut in the Grade I Shoemaker Mile June 30 at Betfair Hollywood Park, is the 9-5 morning line favorite for the $85,000 Wickerr Wednesday at Del Mar.
A restricted race for older horses at one mile on turf, the Wickerr is the seventh of eight races. Post time is 2 p.m. Track gates at Betfair Hollywood Park will open at 10 a.m. for simulcasts.
Owned by Pozo de Luna Inc. and trained by Hall of Famer Ron McAnally, Suggestive Boy was defeated by 1 ¼ lengths by Jeranimo in the Shoemaker, which was his first race in more than eight months.
A 4-year-old son of Easing Along and the Horse Chestnut mare Suffrage, Suggestive Boy has won four of seven and earned $329,150. All of his wins came in Group I races in his native Argentina.
Idle since finishing seventh in the Grade II American Handicap May 26 at Betfair Hollywood Park, Calimonco will try to defend his Wickerr title. The Storm Cat horse won by a nose at 20-1 a year ago for owner-breeders Pam and Marty Wygod and Ballena Vista Farms Inc. and trainer John Sadler.
A 6-year-old out of the Kris S. mare Sweet Life, Calimonco has won five of 31 and banked $358,546.
