John Boehner deserves our gratitude in finally standing up for America against the phony patriots of the tea party and their rich enablers in groups like Heritage Action, Freedom Works, and Club for Growth. In Rep. Boehner's words, these groups "are using our members, and … the American people for their own goals". Their policies […]

Common Core should be implemented nationwide
12/11/13 at 4:57pm by Letters Editor | Comments
In a recent Enquirer article, Brad Wenstrup declaimed that a "common core" of national educational standards for public schools "would force a one size-fits-all solution on uniquely different states…Ohio is not the same as Hawaii…or…Texas…or…New York…We can't be rushing to push our children into mediocrity…It's not fair to them…"? They're already there. The education of […]
Reps. clearly want to keep our students in mediocrity
12/02/13 at 7:55am by Letters Editor | Comments
It should be no surprise that Reps. Brad Wenstrup and Steve Chabot are leading the effort to prevent Common Core educational principles from reaching our children. Rep. Wenstrup says, "We can't be rushing to push our children into mediocrity." Instead, it's in his interest and that of his tea party handlers to KEEP our children […]
Wenstrup may not like health plan, but where is his solution?
11/25/13 at 11:56am by Letters Editor | Comments
Dr. Brad Wenstrup, U.S. representative of the 2nd district of Ohio recently invited his constituents through his newsletter to tell him their stories about Obamacare. In the invitation he says, as a physician, he predicted Obamacare would not work and that some people would not be able to keep their policies and their costs would […]
Congress must be required to live by the laws it writes
11/11/13 at 7:59am by Letters Editor | Comments
I wanted to take a moment to concur with a letter from Nov. 6, calling for Congress to participate in the laws they pass. Starting Jan. 1, my staff and I will be entering the health care exchanges established under President Barack Obama's health care law. The Grassley Amendment has stated all along that members […]

Perhaps it is time for The Enquirer to review the candidates you endorsed for office last November in light of your more recent editorials regarding the governance of our nation. It appears that your favored candidates are part of the problems that you now decry. What are Reps. Steve Chabot and Brad Wenstrup and Sen.Rob […]
Please Mr. Triantafilou, unshackle GOP from tea party
10/18/13 at 12:00pm by Letters Editor | Comments
Having lived in Ohio's 2nd congressional district for some time, I still tend to think of it as Rob Portman's seat in Congress. Today, in contrast to now Senator Portman, a conservative Republican who is broadly respected across the political spectrum, we are represented by tea party Dr. Brad Wenstrup who helped to raise the […]
They voted for default, and we can vote them out
10/18/13 at 11:59am by Letters Editor | Comments
I hope everyone realizes that both Congressmen Chabot and Wenstrup, in addition to putting 800,000 Americans out of work for two weeks, costing the economy $24 billion and over a half percent of GDP, they both voted for an unconstitutional default that would have put millions of Americans out of work and crushed the United […]
Congressmen should forgo medical subsidy
09/25/13 at 11:51am by Letters Editor | Comments
I have been waiting patiently for announcements from my senators, Sherrod Brown and Rob Portman, and my representative, Brad Wenstrup , that they will not accept the gift bestowed by President Obama which will allow them, their families and their congressional staffs to avoid having to purchase their medical insurance like the rest of us. Nancy Pelosi said […]
How is sabotage of law of the land patriotic?
09/24/13 at 7:50am by Letters Editor | Comments
Congressman Brad Wenstrup and Republicans like to paint themselves as patriotic Americans, with flags and mostly military tributes to our country. We have a health care law which has been in effect for some time and has been judged constitutional by the Supreme Court. The law provides insurance for millions of Americans and benefits millions […]

text: Really, I think it boils down to this: Anyone with a special food limitation has to be aware that this is their own problem and they need to take responsibility for it. This means asking the cook in advance if he can provide for them. If the cook can, then he is being curteous to them, and going beyond the basic requirements of cooking feast, and they should be grateful that he is willing to accomodate their personal special needs. My so has some food intolerances. He can't eat milk products or eggs (especially uncooked), or pork in quantities. He'll still eat some of it, but will try to not eat too much of the dishes that contain one of the offending ingredients. I always ask for the menu in advance. This is our own responsibility. If we don't ask for the menu and almost every dish contains cheese, well, so be it, it's our own fault. If the menu isn't suitable, we'll eat off-board. End of the story. And I know, at least around here, most people on a special diet do just that: bring their own meal!

I'd like to know this, too. As far as I'm concerned, Night Watch or Day Watch without the theatrical subtitles is not worth buying.

|What languages in Night Watch and Daywatch?
Night Watch is in Russian except for a few minutes at the beginning and end that are in English. I watched it with the subtitles but I think there was also the choice to watch it dubbed in English although that could be distracting too.

55. It's always fun to see how clear brings the paint alive! Traditionally, multiple layers of clear are required to get a good level coat over stripes thick enough for wet-sanding, but Metalux's clear only requires a coat and a half for a 3-mil film. That saves time and money, plus reduces the chances of getting trash in the clear.

Lessons for the budding Rare Rum Buff: Part 1
So i decided there are enough of you whom i would consider a fellow fanatic of the fine spirit to share some basic techniques of rum appreciation, broken into parts.. We will begin with the practical methodology of tasting.
How To Taste your Tipple
There are several peculiar differences between a spirits tasting and a wine tasting. The first is how one actually tastes, and it's important not to look odd, vigorously swirling the liquid in your glass with exquisite irrelevance to release aromas as if it were wine; you simply don't want to agitate spirits so much. If you vigorously swirl a rare rum, all you're going to get is a face full and some peculiar looks from your fellow fanatics. Instead, delicately twirl the glass, allowing the liquor to coat its sides. Next, begin with a tiny sip that clears the palate. Follow up with a larger sip to coat the mouth. Fine spirits should have a long, pleasant, lingering finish, so there is every reason to retain the delightful liquid in your mouth. The key is: Don't spit. You're not a camel for heavens sake.
Keep posted, for Part 2 next week.

Bidding on #rarerum auction LIVE!
I am currently online as we speak, at the Bonham's Whiskey, Cognac and Rare Spirit auction in New York, waiting for my lot to come up so I can bid on a rare rum I have wanted for a long time…
And here's why. The bottle with a red wax capsule and label with Presidential Seal reads: "This is the Fourth of Twelve bottles of Jamaican Rum of supreme quality and great age prepared especially to commemorate the visit to Jamaica by The President of the United States and Mrs. Reagan, April 7th, 1982." The back label then reads: "In 1906, when the twenty-sixth President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt became the first American to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, for his activities to improve international relations, a quantity of the finest rum from the Mona Estate in Jamaica was sealed in oak casks for ageing. The final parcel of this rum, now more than seventy-five years old, has been used in this unique blend, along with other fine Jamaica Rums, the youngest of which has been aged for over fourteen years."
I was too young to meet Reagan, and born decades after Roosevelt died. But I am old enough to know that when a rare rum with great history arises, it belongs in my cabinet, Upstairs.

Baan Krua Nua silk-weaving community
The other half of the Jim Thompson story
What we say:
When he vanished in the Malaysian highlands in 1967, American spy turned Thai silk tycoon, Jim Thompson, left behind an impressive legacy that can be experienced at his historic house turned museum. Yet most visitors are unaware that a handful of his original suppliers still weave silk a stone's throw away. If you miss the Baan Krua Nua silk-weaving community, you're missing half of the Jim Thompson story and a compelling attraction in its own right.
Rooted in the ancient Champa kingdom that once ruled vast swathes of what's now central and southern Vietnam, the story of Baan Krua begins long before Jim Thompson was born. From roughly the 14th to 18th centuries, civil war and conflicts with the Vietnamese caused thousands of Muslim Chams to flee into southern Laos and Cambodia. Some made it all the way to the Ayutthaya kingdom that predates modern Thailand, and their exquisite silk-weaving skills came with them.
After Burmese forces seized Ayutthaya in 1767, many Cham warriors fought among the Thai, Chinese and Portuguese ranks that re-claimed Siam. In the early 1780s, the Thai king rewarded them with a sizable piece of land along the San Saeb canal. Known as Baan Krua, it remains Bangkok's largest Muslim community. A group of the Cham descendents in Bang Krua Nua (North Bang Krua) have woven silk there ever since, though it was a fading cottage industry when Jim Thompson came along in the late 1940s.
Community elder and silk shop owner, Loong Khun (venerable uncle) Aood, who knew Thompson personally, told us how Thompson used to explore the hidden corners of Bangkok in his free time. One day, he happened upon Baan Krua Nua while rowing a boat along the San Saeb. When he peaked his head into a silk-weaving workshop, a light-bulb went off.
The first Thai silk samples taken to New York by Thompson were supplied by Baan Krua Nua weavers, and the two parties soon collaborated on new styles suited to Western tastes. When some of these were featured in Vogue magazine and later used for costumes in the 1956 film, The King and I, Thompson became a star. More modest but still notable prosperity came to the village, which continued to supply Thompson's silk straight up until his mysterious disappearance.
With a slight tone of resentment, Aood told us how after Thompson's nephew took over the business in the early '70s, he turned his back on the village and opened a factory in Nakhon Ratchasima. While Jim Thompson's House now rakes in millions of baht from tourists and the Jim Thompson brand rubs shoulders with Louis Vuitton and Gucci in lavish shopping centres, Baan Krua Nua is largely forgotten.
A sign near the village relates, "Because of Ban Krua Thai House, we have known Jim Thompson Thai House". Today, you can show your appreciation for this fact by visiting the silk weavers in their workshops. Compared to the highly commercialised Jim Thompson's House, the nearby village offers a far-more evocative experience.
With 60 years of experience, Aood and his family are one of a few remaining Baan Krua households that still produce silk scarves and other garments using traditional weaving methods. Made from natural dyes and silk thread that comes from Surin province in northeastern Thailand, the craftspeople sell their wears at far lower prices than what you'll find at the Jim Thompson's House store.
This is one of those increasingly rare places in Bangkok where a traditional craft lingers gingerly into the future. The Baan Krua workshops occupy century-old wood houses that sag over the narrow alleys, and it's easy to imagine Jim Thompson attracting wide-eyed stares as he wandered through. To the residents of Baan Krua, he was just another character in a far greater story.
Little English is spoken in Baan Krua but Loong Khun Aood (pronounced 'uut' as in "toot the horn") welcomes visitors to observe the silk weaving process and view some fascinating photos, including one that shows a young Aood working with Jim Thompson. If you wander around, you'll find a handful of other houses with small silk workshops, including Khun Niphon's Phamai Baan Krua.

Opening Hours: Daily 09:00-20:00
How to get there: To reach Baan Krua Nua from Jim Thompson's House, which itself is located on Soi Kasem San 2 near National Stadium BTS station, take a left (north) out of the front gates and walk to where the road ends at the San Saeb Canal. From there, take a left onto the canal-side footpath and keep walking until you reach a pedestrian bridge. After crossing to the north side of the canal, take an immediate left then walk another 50 paces or so, and you'll see the signs.

Please enter a valid mileage
Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2014 Porsche Boxster
By KBB.com Editors
Now entering its 13th model year and third iteration, the 2010 Porsche Boxster continues to reap the benefits of Porsche's traditional evolutionary method of engineering. As Porsche's most affordable offering, the Boxster convertibles offer all the stylish good looks and "Hey, I'm somebody" attitude of rivals from Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz, but in a package that is 100-percent performance oriented. Last year's engine overhaul saw a big increase in horsepower and fuel economy, although both models still trail their Cayman siblings by about 10 horsepower each. The numerical difference may seem minor but the performance difference is remarkable.
The 2010 Boxster carries on the legacy of Porsche's legendary 550 Spyder and 356 Speedster in a thoroughly modern convertible format that combines day-to-day utility with performance and handling that rival more exotic machinery. Either model, but especially the basic Boxster, provides all the benefits of belonging to one of motoring's more exclusive clubs without paying excessive dues.
Anyone looking for edgy, aggressive styling and racetrack performance to match would be better served by the Cayman. Although both the Boxster and Boxster S come fairly well equipped for the money, the option list is long and pricey and your Boxster may drive out the door with a price tag equivalent to a 911.
After a thorough refresh last year, the 2010 Boxster carries over largely unchanged.
Driving Impressions Porsches are excellent driving machines and both Boxster models more than live up to that heritage. They are rewarding to drive at nearly any level of expertise. The feel and...responsiveness of the steering is incredible, allowing for accurate and exact placement through just about any type of turn and at just about any speed a reasonable person might attempt. The handling is as exceptional as the steering, although the combination of optional 19-inch wheels and the "sport" setting of the PASM on certain road surfaces can result in a very harsh ride. Through the years, the term "Porsche brakes" has become a synonym for the ultimate in safe, positive stopping. Best of all, even though it is a convertible, the Boxster is no fair-weather-only vehicle when it comes to safe and exceptional levels of performance in wet or dry conditions. The performance of the PDK double-clutch gearbox is light years beyond the previous Tiptronic S automatic and delivers faster performance times than the excellent six-speed manual.
PDK Double-Clutch Gearbox
Really two transmissions in one, the 1,3,5,7 and Reverse gears are controlled by one unit while the even number gears are operated by the other. This setup allows instantaneous shifts on par with the best manuals in the business.
Porsche Stability Management (PSM)
Porsche Stability Management is great for what it doesn't do – interfere with your fun during aggressive driving – as much as what it does do – bail you out when the fun stops because your gumption has exceeded your ability.
The interior, a modern interpretation of the classic Porsche look – notably the instrument panel, which is dominated by a large centered-mounted tachometer – carries over the major 2005 revamp that stressed roomier accommodations and upgraded materials. Four leather-covered seating choices range from mainly-manual six-way adjustable standard seats to fully-powered "adaptive" sport seats.Exterior
Styling carries over from the subtle, but effective muscular enhancement of the fender lines that debuted in 2005. You can spot the S model by its additional horizontal cooling duct in the lower front fascia and the dual exhaust outlets at the rear.
The 2010 Porsche Boxster comes equipped with a six-speed manual transmission with a 2.9-liter six-cylinder engine, while the Boxster S includes a six-speed manual and 3.4-liter six-cylinder engine. Both models have four-wheel disc brakes with four-piston calipers at each wheel. The Boxster rides on standard 17-inch alloy wheels and the S on 18-inch alloys. Each model features a canvas top, which can be operated at speeds up to 40 mph and includes an electrically-heated rear glass window. Because of the mid-engine location and lack of a spare tire and jack (an electric air compressor and can of tire sealant are substituted), the Boxster offers ample storage with a 5.3 cubic-feet capacity front trunk and a rear trunk of 4.6 cubic-feet capacity. Safety items include the excellent Porsche Stability Management system (PSM), as well as anti-lock braking system (ABS), Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) and Automatic Brake Differential (ABD). In addition to two-stage front airbags, both driver and passenger are protected by a side-impact system that includes torso-protecting airbags at the outside of the seat backrest and head airbags in the door windowsills.
Porsche aficionados look forward to personalizing their new Porsches nearly as much as driving them. Porsche acknowledges this with an extensive, and expensive, list of options. The pleasure cruisers will opt for a full leather interior, Bose Surround Sound, a six-CD changer and the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system that combines controls for the audio and on-board computer readout with a DVD navigation system. The PDK double-clutch gearbox is available on both models. Boxster buyers can also move up to the 18-inch wheels of the Boxster S, while 19-inch wheels are optional on both models. Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) applies sophisticated computer controls to allow drivers to adjust the suspension for comfort or sport use. The Sport Chrono Package Plus allows a driver to dial in even more aggressive sportiness by adjusting the computer controls for the PSM, PASM and engine management. It also includes a somewhat gimmicky lap timing function. Big spenders and track enthusiasts can drop over $8,000 for Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB).
Both 2010 Boxster models benefit from last year's new engines that provide more horsepower and better fuel economy. The base Boxster touts a 2.9- horizontally-opposed (boxer) six-cylinder engine that pumps out 255 horsepower and, even more importantly in terms of on-the-road performance, substantial torque (214 pound-feet) that peaks from 4,400 to 5,500 rpm. The Boxster S benefits from an improved 3.4-liter horizontally-opposed six-cylinder engine that puts out 310 horsepower, allowing it to accelerate from zero to 60 mph in under five seconds when equipped with the new PDK double-clutch gearbox.
2.9-liter Boxer-6
255 horsepower @ 6400 rpm
214 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4400-6000 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 19/27 (manual), 20/29 (automatic)
3.4-liter Boxer-6
310 horsepower @ 6400 rpm
266 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4400-5500 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 19/26 (manual), 20/29 (automatic)

"Love this car. Styling, cache, handling all are terrific. The 2.7L engine makes it a little under-powered but the torque is surprisingly strong for the car. Mileage is awful, but you don't buy it for economy. It turns heads when it's cleaned up. The convertible top is very easy to put up and down (power) and everything is ergonomically well put together - as you'd expect from the Germans. Not sure I'd buy it again because the Nissan 370Z is a much better value with comparable performance (I've owned both)."

"There are a lot of impractical things about owning a Porsche. But they're all offset by the driving experience. It really is unique. I've owned a lot of performance cars and they came close. They all were more powerful but they didn't handle like a Porsche. My 2010 Boxster with less than 15,000 miles purchased 3 months ago offered a great value in a true sports car. And, it is a joy to drive..."

"I took ownership of this vehicle in Jan 06 when my grandson could not make the payments. I gave him an old Buick I had for his interest in the Boxster. It has been garaged and covered, yellow convertible with a black top. Everything works. It has been serviced by the Porsche dealer & they have records. Fair price, fun to drive but I am 80 years old and a six speed is just too much shifting."

"If you are not interested in having kids, are young and in a good career, or just something for the weekend, I recommend the Boxster S. This car has power in all gears and speeds, handles very smooth. Ride is a little rough, that just being a sports suspension. If you like flashy, people notice it, however, I feel like I tend to babysit it quite a bit. As in parking it closer, or finding places away from most traffic or other people parking. For a sports car it is not to expensive as far as maintenance, but it will run you much more than your average cars out there. This is my daily driver and am very happy with it. I hope this helps others who are looking to buy a Porsche Boxster S."

Online Retail Monitor / Q1 (January-March) 2011
All Quarters
Click on the PDF icon to download the BRC-Google Online Retail Monitor for Q1 2011
|Release Date
26 April 2011
Stephen Robertson, Director General, British Retail Consortium, said: "Online is the fastest growing part of retailing. We need to better understand that development and whats driving it. Despite any short-term effects from weakening consumer confidence, what stands out here is the fundamental strength of the growth of online retailing. A 29 per cent increase in retail searches in a year is a huge increase in potential shoppers. The star performer is mobile. A three fold increase reveals customers are taking to smartphone and tablet shopping very rapidly. The rise of mobile use to one in ten searches sends a valuable message to any forward-thinking retailer that doesnt yet have an m-commerce platform. The figures show, British retailers are very good at selling online and winning business from all parts of the world. What we need from politicians, UK and European, is a regulatory environment that helps that develop further."
Peter Fitzgerald, Retail Director, Google, said: "The launch of the Online Retail Monitor (ORM) marks a big step in understanding online consumer behaviour across retail categories. The report provides key insights into some important online trends, including the most popular products consumers are searching for and the varied rates at which multi-channel and pureplay retailers are growing online. We hope that it will provide retailers with an up to date snapshot of the ever-changing digital retail marketplace."

(6:15 p.m. Update: After Tuesday's practice Mike Leach confirmed that Canada has left the program. The running back was not listed on the practice roster.)
Chris Shaw, who covers Washington State football for Cougfan.com, reported on Twitter that freshman running back Squally Canada has left the WSU program. Canada's departure is surprising given that he has played well for the Cougars during underclassmen scrimmages and has drawn a lot of praise from the coaches. Canada, along with some other players including regular contributors, was absent from Saturday's bye-week practice.
I haven't been able to confirm Shaw's report but the Cougars practice at 3:30 so we'll ask the coaches after that.
The weather, so nice and warm over the weekend, is going to begin to turn today, making its inexorable march to the depths of winter. You know what that means, right? Tonight must be the start of the World Series, when the Boys of Summer finish their season in the Fall Classic. Read on.
Yesterday the Pac-12 announced that Washington State's home game against USC will kickoff at 1:30 p.m., making it the earliest WSU game of the season. It comes on the heels of WSU's first day game, this weekend's contest against Arizona, which starts at 3 p.m., a time that Mike Leach said on Wednesday is "probably the perfect time to play, really."
The Cougars put a badly-needed bye week behind them yesterday by getting back to the normal game week routine and that meant a Monday press conference. We have video and highlights from Mike Leach's appearance as well as video of players Cole Madison, Jamal Morrow and Destiny Vaeao. We also have game notes and a first look at Arizona.
More links are after the jump.
Washington State's game notes for this week's matchup against Arizona are out, along with a new depth chart that shows Peyton Pelluer as the starting Mike linebacker over incumbent Darryl Monroe. Monroe, a junior, has started every game following a redshirt season his first year on campus but has been somewhat limited in practice this week. While no other significant changes are listed on the depth chart, it will be interesting to see if players like Kalafitoni Pole and Charleston White are available after not practicing last week.
Destiny Vaeao has practiced at nose tackle in Pole's place, and today said that Pole "is down" during a press conference. Cornerback Kevin Griffin is not listed on the depth chart but practiced with the twos on Sunday.
The notes are after the jump, the depth chart is on page 11.
Here's running back Jamal Morrow at today's Washington State football press conference, courtesy of WSU Athletics:
Here's defensive lineman Destiny Vaeao at today's Washington State football press conference, courtesy of WSU athletics.
Here's offensive lineman Cole Madison at today's Washington State football press conference, courtesy of WSU Athletics:
Washington State football coach Mike Leach addressed the media during his Monday press conference. The video above is courtesy of WSU Athletics and the highlights are transcribed after the jump.
Who was it that said, "you are what your record says you are?" Or something to that effect? Read on.
The bye week is over and that means a return to our weekly Monday press conference. Washington State began their on-field preparations for Arizona last night with a short practice at Martin Stadium.
But that's not all. More links are after the jump.
The Cougars returned to game preparations with their weekly 8 p.m. practice on Sunday night. Washington State only practiced for about 45 minutes or so but we've still got a practice report, and some quotes from defensive coordinator Mike Breske, after the jump.
Sunday mornings are usually the pivot point for the football weekend. We look back, we look ahead. Not this morning. No rearview mirror today. We're headed full speed down the highway. Destination: St. Louis. Read on.
Oregon's offense was unstoppable on Saturday night and Stanford's never got started. Another wild Pac-12 weekend is in the books and we have links to the highlights, after the jump.
It appears likely that the Spokane Chiefs will play many 2-1 and 3-2 games this season. Nine games into their Western Hockey League season, the Chiefs have played six games decided by one goal. Four of the final scores have been 3-2 and two have been 2-1. The Chiefs continued the trend Saturday during a 3-2 overtime loss to the Everett Silvertips at the Arena. Read story
Nuke LaLoosh, the bumpkin philosopher of "Bull Durham," said it all: "I love winning, man. It's like, better than losing."
If they weren't clear on the concept before, the Idaho Vandals certainly were by Saturday night. RIding plays like Josh McCain's 49-yard touchdown catch of a Chad Chalich pass (pictured above), the Vandals halted a 13-game losing streak, dumping New Mexico State 29-17 to make it a happy homecoming weekend in Moscow.
And for the record, yes, it seemed like genuine joy trumped the relief of ridding themselves of the longest drought in the Football Championship Subdivision, even if it was somewhat tempered by the blow to the head that sidelined starting quarterback Matt Linehan — though no one is saying the "C" word yet.
For more on the Vandals and their victory, follow the link below.
Freshman running back Squally Canada was one of the players absent during today's football practice. So during the Cougars' third and final Thursday Night Football scrimmage of the week, Keith Harrington got all the work between the tackles.
He's doing so well that running backs coach Jim Mastro won't give him back to the receivers. Mike Leach wouldn't go so far as to make the switch permanent for the receiver, who did play running back in high school, but admitted that "we're heading in that direction."
More on today's practice is after the jump.
Phil Steele's magazine and website are go-to resources for statheads and football junkies and the relative success of his numbers-based prognostication means his awards lists carry more weight than most other analysts.
That's good news for four Cougars, who were named to Steele's midseason All-Pac-12 teams, including a pair of first teamers in offensive lineman Joe Dahl and receiver Vince Mayle.
Follow the jump for more on their selection.
Doesn't it feel as if you had vacations in Seattle that lasted longer than Percy Harvin's tenure there? Let's hope when you finally left town the hotel clerks and cab drivers spoke better of you than the Hawks have of Harvin. Read on.
Washington State doesn't have a game today but a lot of other Pac-12 schools do. Follow the jump for previews of todays' action.
The Kelowna Rockets, 10-0 to open the Western Hockey League season, are off to the best start in franchise history. Whether it's the best start in league history is hard to determine, because the league's official record book doesn't include that category. Read story

Festive Vegetable Gateau
- Yield 8 servings
This elegant side dish can be served over pasta or rice.
- 1 tablespoon plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 large onions, chopped
- Water, as needed
- 2 medium yellow squash, sliced very thin into rounds
- 2 medium zucchini, sliced very thin into rounds
- 2 medium tomatoes, sliced very thin into rounds
- 3 garlic cloves, sliced thin
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme, minced, or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saute pan or skillet over medium heat. Saute the onions 12 to 15 minutes until very brown adding a little water to the pan to prevent sticking, if needed. When the onions are well caramelized and very sweet, add about 1/4 cup water to the pan and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
- Place onions with liquid from pan into a 2 1/2-quart casserole. Spread to form an even layer. Use the squash, zucchini and tomatoes to form layers of vegetable over the onions. Form the rows by overlapping the vegetable rounds. Sprinkle the garlic and thyme over the vegetables. Drizzle with the remaining oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake uncovered 35 minutes until the vegetable are tender and lightly browned.

After two snowy days, Sunday marks the return of spring.
The wintry storm brought 5.5 inches to Draper, 3 inches to Olympus Cove and 2 inches of snow to Sandy, according to reports from The National Weather Service in Salt Lake City. Meteorologists expected lake effect snow to bring another 1 to 4 inches to the Tooele Valley and western Salt Lake Valley through Saturday morning before tapering off in the afternoon.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Mountain snow showers will continue into Sunday, but the NWS does not expect any more accumulation. For the northern valleys, clouds are expected to clear out on Sunday, with temperatures warming into the mid- to upper-40s by Monday.
Southern Utah will maintain its more spring-like weather, with temperatures in the 60s and sunny days with 5-7 mph winds.
All of the backcountry regions in Utah remain at a moderate risk for snowslides on Sunday, except for Moab-area mountains, which the Utah Avalanche Center downgraded to a "low" chance.
Salt Lake City is expected to hit a high temperature of 42 degrees on Sunday and 47 Monday; Ogden's highs should hit 38 and 44 degrees, respectively; Provo 43 and 49; Logan 36 and 41; Wendover 46 and 49; Duchesne 37 and 39; Cedar City 48 and 53; St. George 65 and 68; and Moab 49 and 52 degrees.

ServicePoint Class
Provides connection management for HTTP connections.
Namespace: System.Net
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The ServicePoint type exposes the following members.
|Gets the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the server that this ServicePoint object connects to.
|Specifies the delegate to associate a local IPEndPoint with a ServicePoint.
|Gets the certificate received for this ServicePoint object.
|Gets the last client certificate sent to the server.
|Gets or sets the number of milliseconds after which an active ServicePoint connection is closed.
|Gets or sets the maximum number of connections allowed on this ServicePoint object.
|Gets the connection name.
|Gets the number of open connections associated with this ServicePoint object.
|Gets or sets a Boolean value that determines whether 100-Continue behavior is used.
|Gets the date and time that the ServicePoint object was last connected to a host.
|Gets or sets the amount of time a connection associated with the ServicePoint object can remain idle before the connection is closed.
|Gets the version of the HTTP protocol that the ServicePoint object uses.
|Gets or sets the size of the receiving buffer for the socket used by this ServicePoint.
|Indicates whether the ServicePoint object supports pipelined connections.
|Gets or sets a Boolean value that determines whether the Nagle algorithm is used on connections managed by this ServicePoint object.
|Removes the specified connection group from this ServicePoint object.
|Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
|Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
|Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
|Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Enables or disables the keep-alive option on a TCP connection.
|Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
The ServicePoint class handles connections to an Internet resource based on the host information passed in the resource's Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). The initial connection to the resource determines the information that the ServicePoint object maintains, which is then shared by all subsequent requests to that resource.
ServicePoint objects are managed by the ServicePointManager class and are created, if necessary, by the ServicePointManager.FindServicePoint method. ServicePoint objects are never created directly but are always created and managed by the ServicePointManager class. The maximum number of ServicePoint objects that can be created is set by the ServicePointManager.MaxServicePoints property.
Each ServicePoint object maintains its connection to an Internet resource until it has been idle longer than the time specified in the MaxIdleTime property. When a ServicePoint exceeds the MaxIdleTime value, it can be recycled to another connection. The default value of MaxIdleTime is set by the ServicePointManager.MaxServicePointIdleTime property.
When the ConnectionLeaseTimeout property is set to a value other than -1, and after the specified time elapses, an active ServicePoint connection is closed after it services the next request. This is useful for applications that do not require active connections that are opened indefinitely, as they are by default.
In high load conditions, some applications may run out of free threads in the ThreadPool, which may lead to poor system performance (such as high and variable transaction times). See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnpag/html/scalenetchapt17.asp for a number of configuration changes you can make to fix this issue.
Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core Role not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core Role supported with SP1 or later; Itanium not supported)
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.

Hypertension/High Blood Pressure Health Center
Shaking a Salt Habit
A DASH of prevention continued...
The real problem is prepared foods, which are loaded with salt -- and the only way you'd know it is to study the label. One brand of chicken vegetable soup on the market contains a whopping 2,398 milligrams of sodium per can, way over the healthy level. A single serving of a leading canned ravioli in tomato and meat sauce tips the scale at 1,173 mg. Grab a bacon-cheeseburger with fries at your local fast-food restaurant and you'll consume about 1,000 milligrams of sodium -- and that's before you reach for the salty french fries.
Luckily, there are low-salt soups and nuts out there, along with many other kinds of prepared foods. You just have to look carefully and study the labels. I've begun to take the time to cook my own meals more often -- not just because I can control how much salt they contain, but also because I usually can add an extra serving or two of vegetables. And hitting or exceeding the five-per-day mark for fruits and vegetables, the DASH findings showed, is as important as lowering salt intake, when it comes to keeping blood pressure levels in the healthy range.
It's working for me. Two months after banishing the saltshaker, my blood pressure has dropped back into the normal range. And this reformed saltoholic is determined to keep it that way.

Best read with a glass of cold Champagne in hand!
Don and Petie Kladstrup's new book, "Champagne", is a serious but lively romp through the history of champagne...champagne, the drink and Champagne, the region.
The authors presented so much factually wrong, unsupported information and claims that I finally decided I could not justify spending more time reading it.
