DO NOT google "caul" with your search filter set to anything other than strict. Trust me on this one
Other than that - as always - the recipe sound great. I'm looking forward to the weekend to try it.

Spectacular. Until my recent attempt at a Porchetta I had no idea how important it was to tie the rolled pork securely. I always thought you just needed to hold it together to get it into the pan, WRONG! Following Chef John's lead here with tight knots and plenty of individual loops will keep your roast looking amazing. THANKS CHEF!

Wrapping that lean meat in a lovely sheath of caul fat. Brilliant. I would guess that would also improve a pork tenderloin as well. I'm a low carb person so my brain is already working on non-starchy stuffing ideas. Perhaps blue cheese, greens and walnuts? Probably would need ricotta or egg or both to bind it. Hmmm.

This looks awesome! I'd love to give it a try, but I've never seen caul fat selling at butcher stores in Portugal, and really... I wouldn't even know what to ask for if I wanted to buy it (wikipedia did not help). Any replacement suggestions? Maybe thinly sliced bacon?

Hey Chef, Can we use beef with this technique? If so, what cuts are recommended? Thanks :)

Golf clap. Well done, Chef, as always. I've done a few spiral cut roasts and I still picked up a few tips here.

Made this for a dinner party I hosted and it was a HUGE hit! The only sad thing was that I couldn't get caul fat anywhere in my town so I had to use bacon instead. It still worked and I was quite pleased with the results.

Is the stuffing pre-cooked? I assume that it was.

It's not cooked! Cooks in the roast!

Thank you for solving my Thanksgiving Day Dilemma! I wanted to do pork for the two of us instead of turkey, but I wanted to make it 'holiday special'... now it'll be easy.

Chef John,
What about some brine after unrolling the roast and before rolling with the stuffing? Thanks.

Chef John: Thank you for this excellent video. I prepared this roast using your technique for a very large beach dinner party (26 people). I used 2 full loins, cut in half. Rubbed inside with olive oil and garlic, lay prosciutto, spinach and parmesan cheese over top and rolled. My butterfly technique needs some polish, but I will tell you that without your video it would have been a disaster. Very sharp knife makes quick work. With your video it looked professional. Everyone commented on how beautiful it was. Unlimited stuffing possibilities.
Cooks notes: Brining: unnecessary and renders pan juices unusable. Digital Thermometer (that snakes through oven). A must. I took to 140 and let rest. It was perfect. I did not use caul fat. Left fat cap on and roasted at 475 for 30 minutes and turned down heat to 325.
Do Ahead: Prepare roast day ahead--butterfly, stuff, tie. Put in 2.5 gallon ziploc. Next day, bring to room temp before roasting.
Rolling us was easier than I thought. Meat was very forgiving.
Thanks for taking the time to provide such professional, high content value videos.

East Tennessee State Football Defeats Gardner-Webb in Home Opener, 30-17
Saturday, September 08, 2001Johnson City, Tenn. -- Junior fullback Scott Carter scored touchdowns on consecutive ETSU drives in the second quarter to turn a tie into a 21-7 Buccaneer lead as ETSU snapped Gardner-Webb's six-game winning streak, 30-17 Saturday night from Memorial Center. The Buccaneers opened the game quickly, scoring on their first possession as junior Cecil Moore would haul in a nine yard touchdown pass from quarterback Matt Wilhjelm. Gardner-Webb would answer with 1:38 remaining in the first stanza as Jeremy Martin would connect with William Andrews on a three yard touchdown pass to tie the game at seven. Carter would then take over as he would score on a 15-yard touchdown run and a 11-yard touchdown run in the middle of the second quarter. Gardner-Webb would close out the half with a quick touchdown drive, capped off by a Justin Richardson eight yard touchdown run with 0:29 remaining in the half. The second half did not have nearly the offensive fireworks as the first half as the game turned into a battle of field goals. Gardner Webb kicker Andrew Harmon connected on a 38-yard field goal with 8:17 remaining in the third quarter, cutting the ETSU lead to 21-17. But the Buccaneer defense would then step up, shutting out the powerful Bulldog offense for the rest of the game. ETSU kicker Con Chellis would made three consecutive field goals over the remainder of the game to put the contest out of reach. Wilhjelm came out hot, completing his first 11 passes of the game. He turned in his second-consecutive impressive performance, going 16-25 on the evening, with 228 yards passing, one touchdown and one interception. His counterpart, Jeremy Martin of Gardner-Webb went 13-31 with 185 yards passing, one touchdown and two interceptions. Richardson turned in a great gane for the Bulldogs, bruising the Bucs for 133 yards on 24 carries and a touchdown. It was his fourth straight game with more than 120 yards. Carter led the Bucs with 68 yards on 14 carries. Freshman Terry Copeland was not far behind, gaining 62 yards on 15 carries in his first collegiate start. Moore led the Bucs in receiving, hauling in eight passes for 117 yards and a touchdown. William Andrews and Willie Buchanant each caught four passes for Gardner-Webb, Andrews for 40 yards and Buchanant for 37. There were many defensive heroes for ETSU on the defensive side of the ball. Sophomore cornerback Tony Tiller had the best game of his young career as a cornerback, tallying seven tackles and two key third quarter interceptions on consecutive Gardner-Webb drives. Linebacker Marco Bryant also had the best game of his ETSU career, tallying a game high 14 tackles. For the Bulldogs, Jim Maxwell led the team with 12 tackles and Jenson Turner had two tackles and picked off a Wilhjelm pass, setting up a field goal. The Bucs move on to play at VMI on Saturday, Sept. 15 at 1 p.m. in their Southern Conference opener. Gardner-Webb continues on the road, travelling to Northwestern (La.) State Saturday night.

Format: Blu-ray

The turbulent 1960s bled into the 1970s and by the end of the decade urban decay had set in and a sense of hopelessness pervaded the general consciousness. This was reflected in the hard-edged urban crime films of the 70s, especially
Death Wish
and its clones.
Dirty Harry
French Connection
a definite pall hung over a genre now more closely associated with escapist entertainment. When the urban renewal efforts of the 80s and 90s led to a lifting of this pall and the softening of the genres grime we got films like the
Beverly Hills Cop
Lethal Weapon
series: films that had moments of intense violence, but that also had equal parts comic relief to let the audience know that everything was purely in fun.
The late 70s and early 80s produced some of the grimmest and grittiest films ever released under the guise of entertainment but even by the standards of the films emblematic of this time (such as
Death Wish
The Exterminator
is an exceptionally nasty and aggressively unpleasant film. Roger Ebert famously gave it zero stars out of four, calling it a small, unclean exercise in shame. While the critical reception to the film may have been overwhelmingly negative the film opened to blockbuster business, debuting in the #1 spot nationally despite only playing in New York City. It may not have the same notoriety it did back in 1980 but
The Exterminator
still has the power to provoke, even more than thirty years later.
The Story
John Eastland (Robert Ginty) and Michael Jefferson (
Steve James
) are American soldiers fighting side by side in the jungles of Vietnam when they are captured and interrogated by a particularly brutal Vietnamese officer (
George Lee Cheung
) who has a preference for beheading captives. Michael cracks under the pressure and gives up vital American intel. Luckily Michael has more fortitude and fights back, freeing John and killing their captors. The two escape and are airlifted to safety as the hills explode around them, all thanks to Michaels quick thinking.
Returning to the States, the two men get jobs working the loading docks at a grocery store distribution warehouse. A gang of thugs called the Ghetto Ghouls casually, arrogantly saunter into the room where the beer is stored and begin stealing. John discovers them but their leader gets the drop on him. Luckily Michael is there to once again bail his ass out. Unluckily for Michael, however, the Ghouls track him down later that night and attack him, leaving him paralyzed. This spurs John in to action; he tracks the Ghouls to their clubhouse and kills them. He soon realizes that the Ghouls are only a symptom of the real problem: the systemic corruption the mafias influence has had in the grocery business. He starts to work his way up the criminal food chain.
Someone whose handiwork is as visible as Johns cant go unnoticed for long: hes quickly dubbed
The Exterminator
by the press for his brutal efficiency at dispatching criminals. As the media attention increases, the pressure mounts on Detective James Dalton (
Christopher George
) to crack the case and get the violent psychopath off the streets. Daltons task is complicated when he finds himself balancing his police work with a burgeoning romance with Dr. Megan Stewart (
Samantha Eggar
), the physician treating one of
The Exterminator
s victims.
Of course, all this will lead to the requisite fiery showdown between the two men with many shells being spent and much blood being spilled and if an opening is left for a sequel, well, so much the better.
Despite its reputation for the harshness of its content my biggest problem with
The Exterminator
wasnt with the onscreen violence, but with the assembly of the film itself. Thats not to say that
The Exterminator
s reputation isnt well earned - it is. The violence is every bit as sleazy and repellent as its purposed to be. Along with the expected shootings and beatings theres also forced sodomy and the disfiguring of a prostitute by a cretin using a soldering iron. Oh, and lots of immolations.
The Exterminator
seems particularly fond of lighting people on fire so he can listen to their screams as they slowly die. While not exactly a fun time at the movies, these scenes didnt bother me that much. Confrontational violence, I can deal with. Lazy and inept filmmaking, however, is another kettle of fish.
Take the opening Vietnam flashback, for starters. Its slick and impressively mounted with a helicopter, stunts, explosions and a genuinely gruesome and disturbing partial decapitation (courtesy of Stan Winston). The problem that soon becomes apparent is that these scenes accomplish nothing other than giving the audience action spectacle. They dont establish the characters and their relationships very well. Were eleven minutes into movie before we even know the names of the two leads.
Okay, so the film is slow to start. Fair enough. Not the best way to kick off but not a deal breaker, either. Still, narrative problems persist long after the pre-credit sequence is concluded. The whole inciting incident, the Ghetto Ghouls attack on Michael, is handled in such a slapdash way its almost mind-boggling. After foiling their theft at work, the Ghouls track him down. How did they know where to find him? After they attack him, we see John telling Michaels wife about the attack. How did he know to find her at the playground and how did he find out about the attack before she did? How soon after the attack does this scene take place? It occurs in the chronology immediately after, but theres an insert shot that shows Michael recovering in the hospital after surgery. Theres no sense of a workable timeline and, as a result, no sense of forward momentum - its just jarring and disorienting. Scenes follow one another with no connectivity linking them. You could edit the scenes in
The Exterminator
in almost any order and get pretty much the same film. Its not cut like a narrative, its cut like a highlight reel.
I didnt hate
The Exterminator
but I did resent the laziness of its storytelling. Its an especially egregious offense because the revenge genre has such a well-established template that you almost have to make a concerted effort to screw it up. In the commentary, director James Glickenhaus said that he didnt want to waste time on transitional scenes that the audience didnt need. Thats a legit strategy but theres a world of difference between that and what he actually does: make the audience do all the narrative heavy lifting. I guess were just not expected to give the film this much thought and Im willing to do that up to a point. There are only so many unexplained scenes or plot holes you can pile on in such a short amount of time before it becomes too distracting. Narrative efficiency is one thing, omitting half the narrative is another thing altogether.
The Exterminator[/b] himself is not a very interesting character. His friend Michael seems like a much more assertive man of action and after hes out of the picture, the focus turns to Detective Dalton and his romance with Megan. John is poorly conceived, always just hanging out in the fringes of the story. We never really find out what drives him beyond avenging his friend. Take the scenes with the scarred hooker: why does he pick her up to begin with and why does he go after the men who disfigured her? It would be one thing if he was established as a person with a strong, almost compulsive sense of right and wrong but, from minute one, hes been portrayed as a bit of a jelly-spined milquetoast. He is the titular character but aside from his name I know about as much about
The Exterminator
at the end of the film as I did in the beginning. They may as well have made him mute and put him in a clown mask for all the personality and depth of motivation he exhibits.
Further complicating things is the actual movie making craft involved in
The Exterminator
. Ignoring the borderline inept writing and assembly of the film, the individual scenes are well crafted enough from a technical standpoint. Theres an exterior shot of the Ghouls clubhouse, all painted in dayglo colors and lit by the strobe of the light from a police car that has an eerie beauty thats positively haunting, and a scene inside an underground sex parlor has a similar, almost Kubrickian look to it. Its an unusual choice in a genre that generally trades in nicotine-stained grittiness. Aerial establishing shots of burned out buildings in pre-renewal New York cast an appropriate aura of hopelessness and despair. The stunts are well executed and the gore effective, especially an audaciously over-the-top meat grinder gag, but the final product is far less than the sum of its parts.
Image Quality
The Exterminator
is presented in a 1.78 AVC transfer that looks to have been struck from well preserved materials- theres barely a blemish or any significant print damage to be found. Grain is well preserved and present throughout. The image does often tend toward softness and occasionally looks very washed out. Like a lot of the films of the era, most of
The Exterminator
was filmed in blurry soft focus photography. The movie has a fairly muted palette but when bright colors appear they pop off the screen without bleeding. Fine detail is good but not great: writing on trucks or signs is tough to discern, even in the middle ground of the frame. A lot of these issues are probably inherent in the source material and not a fault of the transfer: every now and then theres a scene that looks utterly fantastic, with bright, well saturated colors and sharp detail. Synapses Blu-ray release represents a huge step up from the previous, non-anamorphic Anchor Bay disc and is likely as good as
The Exterminator
will ever look.
The DTS-HD 2.0 mono is quite good, as well. Although there are a few scenes where dialogue is hollow sounding or tough to hear, for the most part its a well presented and well balanced track. Sound effects are present but never overpowering. The score is pounding when needed and quiet when appropriate. Its not going to knock your socks off but its far preferable to an artificial 5.1 mix where the surrounds are filled with canned effects. Kudos to Synapse for preserving the original audio.
Supplemental Material
Although the supplements may seem a bit slim at first glance, a sense of perspective needs to be maintained. The Blu-ray edition of
The Exterminator
may not be the all-out special edition that fans mightve hoped for but this disc represents about as much as they could have reasonably expected. This is not a big Hollywood production, or even a low budget film with a huge following like
Evil Dead
. I doubt many vintage supplemental materials even exist and the expense of creating a new HD master would probably preclude the production of extensive, all new materials.
The main supplement is a feature audio commentary with writer-director James Glickenhaus, which is moderated by Chris Poggiali of Temple of Schlock. Glickenhaus is generally informative though a tad disingenuous as to the quality and effectiveness of his film. Theres a lack of perspective and a tendency to make excuses for or completely spin the films shortcomings. Poggiali, on the other hand, makes a good moderator, gently prodding Glickenhaus with questions when the discussion begins to taper off. Its entertaining for a listen but the commentary meanders and doesnt really go into much depth on any one topic.
The Original Theatrical Trailer (1:24) is presented in full HD, but its in pretty rough shape: soft, blurry, washed out.
Six 30-second TV spots are also presented window boxed in full-frame HD, probably mastered from 16 mm elements. Not much else to say; the spots are about what fans would imagine and they look about as good as youd expect.
Final Thoughts
The Exterminator
is what it is, and makes no apologies for it. Im torn. On one hand, its a depressing descent into sleaze and depravity thats disjointed and confusingly assembled. Its the kind of movie that makes you want to scrub your hands with Purell after its over. On the other, writer-director James Glickenhaus stages his action scenes with skill and the movie is brutally efficient in giving the audience what theyve paid to see. I cant deny the power it had to hold my attention rapt at times, even if it couldnt manage to do it for the entire 102 minute running time.
Exterminator fans will rejoice that the film is finally given the HD treatment and despite its shortcomings, this is inarguably a head and shoulders upgrade over previous presentations of the film. Fans of revenge thrillers in general should definitely give a rent but the casual viewer would be far better off watching William Lustigs
, instead.

*Because of the quality of the HD format, the clarity, resolution and color depth are inherently a major leap over DVD. Since any Blu-ray will naturally have better characteristics than DVDs, the rating is therefore only in comparison with other Blu-ray titles, rather than home video in general. So while a Blu-ray film may only get a C, it will likely be much better than a DVD with an A.

Yeah, I watched this a couple of days ago and pretty much agree on all points with the review.
It's a grimy little flick with some quite graphic (to put it mildly) scenes. I did like the helicopter scenes & stunt work in vietnam (nice camera work I thought)
With regards to the storytelling - that bugged me a little (a lot of scenes just happened out of the blue) but can easily be forgiven (I find leaving your brain in a jar on entrance to watching this film the best course of action
I'd have given the film at least a 'B'. Not quite up there with some of the genres finest but not far off.

It's a shame it took so long for this film to get a Blu release as Robert Ginty,the star,just passed away a couple of years ago.I would have loved to have seen an interview with him about not only this series but the many other low budget 80's actioners (like LADY DRAGON) that he turned up in back in the day.Pity he left us so early.Rest In Peace.

This calculator supports all the basic functions like : NOT,OR,AND,XOR, addition,subtraction,multiplication,division and modulo.
So join me as we are going to enter the world of ones and zeros and play with some LEDs and switches along the way!
Step 1: Parts List
a soldering iron, some solder wire, a cutter, a needle nosed plier,some wire, wire striper, and some desoldering tools fro fixing mistakes along the way.
The parts for the calculator:
1. 32 LEDs.
2. 8 resistors( The value is determent by the type of LEDs, in my case 91 ohm).
3. 74HC595 shift register.
4. 9 1KOhm resistors.
5. 4 2n4401 transistors.
6. A Perfboard.
7. ATtiny2313.
8. 16 tact switches with 4 pins.
9. some pin headers.
10. A programmer for the micro.
11. 9V battery holder.
12.A slide switch.
13. 7805 voltage regulator
14. 100nF cap
15. 10uF cap
Can you please make a tutorial to decode the binary and display the numbers on a seven segment display with an IC?
plz help me regarding the working of this calculator ... which are the inputs , which are outputs ..n how to read this ... plz tell me :)
this article: http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/components/led.htm#series says it wouldn't work?
also, using 91 ohms and 5v does that mean your led current is 55mA? That seems high to me and using (Vin-Vled)/(Iled) it would mean your led is 0.086V? I'm confused.
But thanks for the great instructable, I'm planning on using these concepts to make a bit led array (as soon as I get my head around it!)
If all of the LEDs are the same the current will divide equally between the 3 LEDs.
But the article is correct generally it's not the best of ideas to use just one resistor but I wanted to save some space and I had the same type of LEDs.
So, you're using blue LEDs and resistors with 91ohm... But my question is what's the source voltage? Doesn't the voltage regulator lower it to 5V ? Therefore you should use 120ohm resistors - am I right?
In the upper line in first right LED is the LSB ( Least significant bit ) which is like the first number in a digit. Lets say you work with a normal number of 5623 the number 3 will be like the LSB because if you change it that number the change in the overall value wouldn't change that much.
And the 5 is the MSB ( Most significant bit ) if you change that number the overall value will change dramatically.
So in this calculator the bottom left LED is the MSB one.
Now the way you read the answer is like so : the first 8 LEDs are the lower part of the answer and the bottom line is the upper answer.
To make it a bit clearer lets say we have an answer of 1259, The first line would be "59" and the second line would be "12".
Thanks !
I wish I had more free time on my hands to make something
I used 2 softwares in this project one called "AVR studio" in which I write the program in C and "Khazama AVR programer " that I use to write the program on to the micro itself.
The total cost with the program(which is a 1 time buy) is about 30-40 dollars.
This HEX file will only work for the micro I used so you will need to compile the code for the micro you use.
I wonder why it took 17 days for Instructables to send me an email that this was published? Keep up the good work.
I will fix it as soon a possible.

The gunman who shot Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in the head and then unleashed a spray of bullets that killed six and wounded 12 others at a town hall event outside a Tucson, Ariz., grocery store may not have acted alone, authorities announced Saturday night.
"We are not convinced that [the gunman in custody] acted alone, there is some reason to believe he came to this location with another individual, and that individual is involved," Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik said.
Police said a suspect was taken into custody, and Dupnik described the alleged shooter as mentally unstable. Though the sheriff did not name the suspect, he was identified by multiple law enforcement sources as Jared Lee Loughner, 22.
Dupnik declined to provide more information on the second individual who he would only describe as "white" and "in his 50s." Authorities have photographs of the person of interest and are "actively pursuing him," the sheriff said.
The congresswoman was the clear focus of the gunman's assault, Dupnik said.
"He ran through the crowd and when he got to [Giffords] he just started shooting," the sheriff said.
"The anger, the hatred, the bigotry that goes on in this country is getting to be outrageous. And unfortunately Arizona I think is the capital. We are the Mecca for prejudice for prejudice and bigotry," he said.
Dupnik said authorities are also investigating a suspicious package at one of Giffords' field offices in Tucson.
Steven Rayle, who was at the scene, told ABC News that "another man went running off" after the shooting, but wasn't sure if he was involved.
A total of 19 people were hit by gunfire during the shooting, which began just after 10 a.m. Six of the victims have died, according to Dupnik, and the remaining individuals are not believed to be in "life threatening situations."
Five of the victims died on the scene, and 9-year-old Christina Greene died at a nearby hospital.
Those who died and have been identified are 63-year-old U.S. district Judge John Roll , 30-year-old Gabriel Zimmerman (Giffords' director of community outreach), 76-year-old Dorthy Murray, 76-year-old Dorwin Stoddard and 79-year-old Phyllis Scheck, according to the Pima County Sheriff's Department.
Giffords, 40, was shot in the head and was taken to University Medical Center, where she underwent brain surgery and was listed in critical condition.
Dr. Peter Rhee, trauma director at UMC, told reporters that the bullet went through her brain, but he said she was responsive to doctors' commands.
"I am very optimistic about her recovery," Rhee said.
Richard Carmonia, a former U.S. surgeon general who was at the event where the shooting occured, said that Giffords' injuries were "severe" but that there is a "possibility she will survive."
President Barack Obama, speaking at a nationally televised news conference, called the shooting an unspeakable tragedy.
"What Americans do at times of tragedy is to come together and support each other, so at this time I ask all Americans to join me and Michelle in keeping all the victims and their families, including Gabby, in our thoughts and prayers," he said. "We are going to get to the bottom of this and we're going to get through this."
"The suspect is currently in custody, but we don't yet know what provoked this unspeakable act," the president said.

Alternatively a free ski bus stops approximately 200 metres (approx) uphill from the chalet. For nightlife, the centre of Arc 1800 is an 8 -10 minute walk (700 metres approx) down the road.

2-Disc Set includes 3 Hours of bonus scenes, behind the scenes footage and more!
Packed with sword-fighting monks, a madman planning to destroy the world and scene after scene of hot sex, this action-packed adventure belongs in your bedroom – not buried in our warehouse.
Ava Rose stars as Carolina Jones, the lusty daughter of archaeologist Dr. Jones. After rescuing Bree Olson from a sex dungeon, the two fight their way through a group of crazy monks (Don't miss Bree taking one out with a giant dildo!) only to find themselves in even more trouble!
A suspicious telegram leads Ava to interrogate an old boyfriend and discover a plot to open the Ark of the Covenant – placing the entire world in danger. Can these two babes save the world without missing their booty calls? 5 Scenes. 102 minutes, plus 180 minutes of DVD bonus material.
Scene 1: Steve Holmes pumps, thrusts and pounds Nikki Blond into submission with an impressive standing doggy performance while Bree Olson watches them go at it hammer & tongs in a kinky sex dungeon!

Members of the Fairfax County Park Authority Board unanimously approved the re-election of Chairman William Bouie, who will serve his fifth term in the top spot.
The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors appoints the Park Authority Board, choosing one representative from each of the nine magisterial districts, plus three at-large members. The board then elects its officers for the new year.
Elected vice chairman is Dranesville District representative Kevin Fay. Kala Leggett Quintana, an at-large member of the Park Board, will serve as secretary, and Providence District representative Ken Quincy as board treasurer.
"The challenges of public service are daunting, but we are up to the task and proud to be part of this nationally acclaimed organization," Bouie said. "The people in this community love their parks and we are here to ensure that they get the high level of customer service, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and protection of our community's natural and cultural resources that they expect."
Bouie, a senior telecommunications executive, has represented the Hunter Mill District on the board since 2005. He works with youth sports organizations throughout Northern Virginia, is active with Little League Baseball, and serves on the boards at Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts and Reston Hospital Center.
Since Fay's appointment to the board in 2003, he has worked to provide new recreational amenities and to preserve historic and natural resources. These efforts have resulted in new turf and synthetic turf athletic fields, Clemyjontri Park, miles of trails, new equestrian facilities and the preservation of historic Salona. He is president of Alcalde & Fay, a government and public affairs firm, has been president of McLean Little League, and has coached baseball, softball and soccer for 14 years.
Quintana of Burke was appointed to the board in 2010. Earlier she served as an at-large representative to the Fairfax County Trails and Sidewalks Committee. She also was president of the Board of Trustees for the Burke Centre Conservancy from 2008 to 2011 and a board member from 2006 to 2011. Since 2002 Quintana has been director of Public Outreach for the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission. She also serves as interim public information officer for the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority.
Quincy of Vienna was named to the board in 2007. He chairs the Administration, Management and Budget Committee, as well as the Park Operations Committee, and serves as vice chairman of the Planning and Development Committee. He retired from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in 1977 after 31 years in bank supervision and regulatory compliance, and has been involved in redevelopment planning for Tysons Corner.
United Community Ministries elected its officers and four new directors at its recent annual meeting. Elaine Kolish was chosen as president of the board of directors, with Anne Marie Kavanaugh-Coggins as secretary. David Barbour was re-elected as vice president and Bruce Engelmann as treasurer.
New members of the board are Joseph Conti, The Hon. Christine Gigi Hyland, James Seeley and Diane Tollefson. All board members live in Alexandria.
"We are grateful for past president Doug Kennett's leadership," Kolish said, "particularly during a challenging year when we were faced with the sad and difficult task to replace Executive Director Cynthia Hull after her sudden passing."
Kolish has served on the board since 2008. A nationally recognized expert on advertising and consumer protection issues, she is a vice president of the Council of Better Business Bureaus. Earlier she was a partner at a national law firm, and prior to that, spent 25 years at the Federal Trade Commission as a senior executive service official and head of the Division of Enforcement. A graduate of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Kolish earned her juris doctor degree from the Western New England College School of Law.
Barbour has served on the UCM Board since 2011. An administrative law judge at the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission, he earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Michigan and a bachelor of laws from The George Washington University.
Engelmann returned in 2009 to serve on the UCM Board. He is a certified public accountant who operates a tax and accounting practice, serving small businesses and individuals. He earned a master's degree from Virginia Tech.
Kavanaugh-Coggins joined the UCM Board in 2011. A longtime educator, she has served as director at St. Luke's Day School since 2005. She earned a bachelor's degree from George Mason University.
Conti retired in 1992 as a senior vice president at Bankers Trust Co. He is a member of the Emeritus Board of the Children's Law Center in Washington, D.C. A graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University with a degree in business management, Conti earned his M.B.A. from the Bernard Baruch College of the City University of New York.
Hyland most recently spent seven years as a board member of the National Credit Union Administration. Earlier she served the credit union community for 14 years as an executive, attorney and advocate. She was also a managing partner of the family law firm, Hyland and Hyland. A graduate of the College of William and Mary, Hyland earned her juris doctor degree from George Mason University School of Law and an advanced diploma in international law from McGeorge School of Law.
Seeley retired in 2010 after serving for 35 years as the chief federal lobbyist for the city of Los Angeles in Washington D.C. Prior to that, he worked for the state of Illinois for seven years after working for the federal government for eight years.
Tollefson is president of the Friends of UCM, a membership organization that builds community spirit through fundraising and public awareness activities. Semi-retired, she worked as a human resources professional and for nonprofit organizations, with a special interest in start-up and early development. She is a graduate of the University of South Dakota.
United Community Ministries is one of the largest providers of human services in Fairfax County, helping families meet basic needs and find opportunities for self-sufficiency and community engagement.
The University of Richmond's Office of Alumni and Career Services has named Brad Nicklin and Cate Padgett, both of Vienna, to serve new terms on its Career Services Advisory Council.
The council advises the university on design and implementation of best practices and ethical guidelines for campus recruiting, as well as market and employment trends. Members also help develop and enhance student and alumni programming for career preparedness and networking.
Nicklin is a partner at Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, an accounting firm in Tysons Corner.
Padgett is a program assistant for Education Outreach at Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts.

The above post is not subject to penalty under the TOS I declare the Hayden Fox defense. " It is impossible for the staff to know my context therefore I cannot be penalized"
This Winston situation reminds me of why to be good in the NFL you have to be able to draft. There are average players on the FA market asking for substantial money, and chances are there is a team out there that needs it bad enough that they will pay it (look at us and Marshall the DB). But you can't fill a team doing that because there is just not enough cap space.
We need to find an answer at RT, but crippling ourselves in other areas because we have to drastically overpay there isn't improving the team.
- Hall of Fame Safety Rod Woodson on Dan Marino playing in today's NFL:
"...the best quarterback I believe is Dan Marino..."
"If he played with these rules, he'd throw for 100,000 yards."
Twitter - https://twitter.com/ciscoholgate
Would have been nice to sign him. Oh well. DO NOT BRING BACK VERNON CAREY. He's way too fat for a zone blocking scheme.
Winston got 4 years and 22 million per PFT:
Pretty reasonable if you ask me, I wonder what we offered. I understand not putting much more money into the line w/o a QB or many weapons . . but why even flirt if you can't come up with 5.5 million per for one of the better RT's in the game?

It seems that most every health expert recommends taking fish oil.Omega 3 fish oils have become very popular, so popular in fact thatconcerns are being raised about the survival of certain fish species.
SUSTAINABLE Marine Oil Pearls:
EcoOmega contains sustainable food grade Calamari oil. Calamari isnaturally high in DHA and has a higher concentration of DHA thanbest-selling Omega-3 Fish Oil. Nearly 60% of the Omega 3 in Eco Omega is DHA. Eco Omega Marine Oil is a very pure, clean and effective source of DHA and EPA.
Certified Sustainable by Friend of the Sea
In1987, the WCED commission of the United Nations defined sustainabledevelopment as "development that meets the needs of the present withoutcompromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."In 2006, a non-profit organization called "Friend of the Sea" began to audit and certify companies that fish or farm fish for sustainablilty. Certified companies must adhere to strict sustainable activities.
In 2010, the calamari oil in Eco Omega was certified as sustainable by Friend of the Sea. Calamari (squid) is very different from other Omega 3marine sources (tuna, cod, anchovy, or krill). Reproductive age andlifespan are keys for population sustainablility. Squid reachreproduction age quickly and die after spawning, typically in less than 450 days. In contrast, the lifespan or reproductive age of yellow fintuna, cod, anchovy and krill can be measured in years, and even decades.Long lifespan and slow reproduction, combined with aggressive fishing,can jeopardize the populations of certain species over time. Calamari isnaturally more sustainable.
To further ensure sustainablilty, the Eco Omega oil is pressed from the trimmings of calamari alreadycaught for food. Calamari is not caught stricktly for its oil. And EcoOmega calamari fishing methods are environmentally sensitive. There islittle "by-catch" of other marine animals.
Why You Need Omega 3 Every Day?
Omega3 cannot be made by the body. You must get it from food or supplements.Omega 3 is highly concentrated the brain, heart, eyes and nervoussystem. Two key types of Omega 3 fatty acids are EPA and, especially,DHA. A serving of Eco Omega contains 250 mg of DHA and 125 mg of EPA.Traditional fish oils have much more EPA than DHA. In 2008, the PointInstitute of Nutritional Health rated DHA more important than EPA fortwice as many health conditions. These included general well-being,cadiovascular and eye health and brain acuity.*
A Pearl Sized Softgel.
Forgetoversized Omega 3 capsules. Eco Omega comes in a tiny softgel pearl.You can chew or easily swallow the pearls whole - up to 5 at a time.
Virtually Free of Lead and Mercury.
Calamarilive fast and die youg - their entire life cycle takes just one year,much shorter than fish such as cod or salmon which can live up to 20years. The lifespan of calamari lessens their exposure to lead, mercuryand other ocean pollutants found in other fish. Eco Omega is virtuallyfree of lead and mercury (no more than .0001 mg of either per serving)or other contaminants. A hint of natural fruit flavor in Eco Omega willfreshen your mouth when the pearls are chewed.

Gallery: Palm Springs' Rosa Gardens Affordable Housing Achieves LEED Go...
Rosa Gardens was constructed on an urban infill lot and it offers 57 units of 2 or 3 bedroom apartments. The project also includes a common laundry room, a community room, a pool, bike racks, a basketball court, a recycling area, and other family amenities. Solar passive design was the driving force behind Brooks + Scarpa's vision – they used this green building strategy to minimize solar heat gain and energy use. Building orientation, shaping, shading, glazing, and natural ventilation were all were taken into consideration during the design phase. In total, the strategies amounted to a 30% reduction in energy use compared to California's Title 24 standards.
The team also managed to recycle more than 75% of the project's construction materials – and many of the building materials themselves are recycled to begin with. The insulation is made from recycled newspapers, the carpet has a high recycled content, and the exterior cladding was locally fabricated from aluminum cans. The inside of each apartment features low-flow fixtures, natural linoleum flooring and CFL lighting. The project will soon install a solar thermal heating system that will provide domestic hot water and heat the pool.

Thanks for your input. It is definitely a balance between a cost/benefit analysis, local availability, maintenance of the material and life cycle. Rosa Gardens uses common materials such as stucco, concrete block and metal panels and utilizes recycled-content materials only where it makes sense, certainly not just for the green rating at the exclusion of other issues. Palm Springs sits in the Coachella Valley, which is part of the 13th largest metropolitan area in the United States, the Inland Empire, so it is actually closer than one might think to things like building materials and supplies. More important than materials, though, at this location, is water usage and building orientation. Southern California became what it is today because the water came from somewhere else and this project conserves water through smart landscaping and very efficient fixtures. Orienting the building properly, natural cross ventilation, providing shade from the desert sun and reflecting heat from the roof (all low cost ideas), does more for the energy efficiency of this building than adding an entire solar panel array. The long-term maintenance and durability of materials is just as important, if not more, than those that are locally sourced. A large part of the sustainability of a building comes from it's design, the 'fundamentals' for us, and that is always step 1!'

in the middle of a desert, i don't see a way to get recycled construction materials in a radius of less than 50-100Km. the embodied energy of recycled content increases ten folds in such cases. its a waste if we are recycling and transporting it long distances to achieve ratings. this is an anti-thesis of the word "sustainable". architects like hassan fathy were pioneers of such building typologies. using local materials should be the starting point, at least i can see stone and sand available from the images! its good to grab a green rating but one should consider the fundamentals first.

|Head Coach
|Previous College:
|Rockhurst '92
Maryann Mitts is the winningest coach in Missouri Southern
history. Under Mitts' guidance, the Lions have averaged 17
wins during her 11 years at the helm and have finished in the upper
echelon of the highly competitive Mid-America Intercollegiate
Athletics Association seven of those 11
years. In 16 years as a collegiate head coach,
Mitts has amassed an impressive 13 winning
seasons. Notable, the Lions have also narrowly
missed the NCAA post-season tournament in six of those 11
Despite not being the outcome Mitts wanted in 2011-12, the Lions still were competitive, regardless of the final record. Only eight of the losses were by more than ten points, and the Lions were only out-scored by 4.5 points on average. Junior forward Erin Rice was an All-MIAA selection, and the team had five players with a 3.0 GPA or higher, including two with GPA's of 3.5 or higher.
The 2010-11 season saw the Lions' once again among the leaders of the MIAA in defense. Southern was fourth in scoring defense with an average of 63.0 points per game, fifth in 3-point field goal percentage defense giving up .314 (158-of-503), fifth in rebounding defense with 36.0 rebounds per game, fifth in steals with 8.00 per contest, and fourth in turnover margin with a +1.56 margin.
The season was highlighted by an overtime victory over then 20th-ranked and defending NCAA D-II National Champions the Emporia State University Lady Hornets, 82-74, and an upset of then 18th-ranked and eventual NCAA D-II National Semi-Finalist Northwest Missouri State Bearcats, 70-62, to give Coach Mitts her 250th career win.
Against ESU, Southern would battle back from a 11-0 deficit to take a 32-30 at the half. The Lions' got double digits from senior guard Jasmine Lovejoy, who had a career-high 38 points, and sophomores Erin Rice, 18, and Kelby Fritz, 11. The win over Emporia State was the first since a 90-71 win over the then 16th-ranked Lady Hornets in Joplin in 2007-08.
In the final home game of the 2010-11 season the Lions were down 11 at the half to the Bearcats, 39-28, but the Lions would hold Northwest Missouri to just 23 second half points on the way to their second win over a ranked opponent that season. Southern out rebounded the Bearcats 44-36 overall, and 23-15 in the second stanza of play, going into the locker room both teams pulled down 21 boards. The Lions received double digits in points from Lovejoy, 20, Rice, 18, and senior Afton Baldwin with 10.
Overall, Mitts has compiled a 175-132 (.570) record in 11 years with the Lions. She holds a 258-188 (.578) mark in 17 years as a collegiate head coach. Mitts currently ranks amongst the Top 50 of all Division II active coaches in all-time victories.
In 2009-10 the Lions displayed Coach Mitts' signature again finishing as one of the top defensive teams in the MIAA. Southern finished fourth in scoring defense (allowing 63.6 ppg), third in field goal percentage defense (.375), fourth in three-point field goal percentage defense (.296), second in rebounding defense (33.6 rpg), and third in rebounding margin (+5.5). The 2009-10 campaign marks the ninth year in a row that a Coach Mitts led Lions squad has finished in the top half of the MIAA in defense. This defense was paramount when the Lions travelled to then-ranked #6 Washburn on January 9th and defeated the Lady Blues in Topeka, Kan. This marked the second time in three years that the Lions have traveled to Topeka and came home with a win, after going without a win there in the previous 10 seasons. The Lions finished the season with the fourth best overall record in the MIAA at 15-13. Half of those Southern's losses came at the hands of NCAA post-season qualifying teams that year, Northeastern State University (1), University of Central Missouri (2), NCAA D-II National Champion Emporia State University (2), and Washburn University (1).
In 2008-09, Mitts guided the Lions to a 19-10 mark and for the
second straight year, narrowly missed a berth into the NCAA
Regional Tournament. That season saw the Lions run off seven
straight victories within the MIAA, their longest such streak since
the 2003-04 season. The Lions wound up fourth in the MIAA, marking
the third time in the last four years that the Lions have finished
fourth in the MIAA standings. The Lions also recorded an upset
victory over then No. 3-ranked Washburn and went on to defeat
Central Missouri in the MIAA Tournament for their first win in the
conference tourney since the 2001-02 campaign. The Lions continued
their stingy defensive prowess under Mitts, finishing as the
second-ranked defensive squad in the MIAA for the second straight
season and for the fifth time in Mitts' eight years at
In 2007-08, the Lions were ranked as high as #16 in the WBCA Top 25, setting a record for the highest ranking ever by the Missouri Southern Women's Basketball program. In addition, they held a spot in the regional rankings, placing between second and sixth for all five weeks that the poll was published. The Lions held this prominence until Selection Sunday, when they were denied making their first NCAA Tournament appearance in 12 years. MSSU finished the MIAA season in a three-way tie for fourth with a 9-9 conference mark. The Lions continued with their impressive defensive ways, being noted as the top-ranked defensive squad in the NCAA Division II at the break. The 07-08 campaign also featured the Lions winning at MIAA power Washburn for the first time since 1995 and starting off the season 9-0 for the first time since the 2003-04 campaign and for only the third time since the 1995-96 season. On January 1, 2008, The Lions were also the only undefeated squad in the South Central Region.
In 2006-07, Mitts helped the Lions overcome an injury-riddled season to post their sixth straight winning record at 14-13, including a tie for fifth place in the MIAA and a sixth consecutive appearance in the MIAA Postseason Tournament.
The 2003-04 campaign marked one of Mitts' finest seasons at the helm of the Lions, as the squad started the year on a nine-game winning streak, the program's best start in eight years. Southern posted a 7-1 record in February with wins over three nationally-ranked opponents, a first in MSSU history, and Mitts' was among several finalists for the Division II Bulletin Women's National Coach of the Month. The Lions ended the campaign with a 19-9 overall mark, their best record since 1996, and narrowly missed making their first NCAA tournament appearance in eight years. Southern also posted a 10-8 record in MIAA play and earned its fourth straight berth in the conference postseason tournament after placing fifth in the final league standings.
Mitts wasted little time in putting Missouri Southern back on the map both at the conference and regional level. Her first Lion contingent, picked to finish eighth in the MIAA, posted a 17-11 record, the program's first winning season in five years, and placed fifth in the conference standings. Those 2001-02 Lions advanced to the semifinals of the MIAA postseason tournament before bowing out to eventual NCAA tournament qualifier Missouri Western. The 2002 squad was recognized as one of the NCAA Division II women's basketball's most improved teams with a 6.5 game improvement from the previous season.
The eighth head coach in Lion history, Mitts came to Southern from Rockhurst University, where she took a highly successful NAIA program and led it into the ranks of NCAA Division II. In five seasons as head coach at RU, she posted a record of 83-57 (.593) while also serving as the Senior Woman Administrator (SWA) for the athletics department.
While serving as assistant basketball coach, she also initiated and directed the men's and women's tennis programs. In three seasons, she led her team to a 41-14 record and two National Tournament appearances while being named Midwest Region Coach of the Year in 1995 and 1996. In 1996, Mitts served as the NAIA Regional Chair as Rockhurst served as the host institution for the NAIA Regional Championships.
After serving as assistant coach at her alma mater from 1993 to
1996, Mitts led the 1996-97 Hawks to an 18-10 record in their first
season as a dual NAIA/NCAA Division II institution. That season
Rockhurst won the National Catholic Basketball Tournament title,
and Mitts was named NCBT Coach of the Year.
For an encore, Mitts led Rockhurst to a 24-7 record in 1997-98. The Lady Hawks won the Midwest Region and advanced to the NAIA Sweet 16, and Mitts was named Regional Coach of the Year. Her next two squads finished at 13-14, and in the 2000-01 season the Lady Hawks were 15-12, 7-5 and fourth in the then newly-established Heartland Conference.
Mitts' squads have also been successful in the classroom, as her 2001-02 team was ranked ninth in the Women's Basketball Coaches Association Academic Top 25, the highest ranking of all MIAA teams. Her 1998-99 Rockhurst squad was No. 1 in the nation academically in NCAA Division II, and her 1999-2000 Lady Hawks were 13th.
The Lions' mentor believes she has the staff to help bring national prominence to Missouri Southern. She is assisted by Ronda Hubbard, who is beginning her tenth year with the Lions and was elevated to the position of Associate Head Coach prior to the 2009-10 campaign. Hubbard was a former Missouri State University standout and highly successful coach at the high school, Division I and Division II levels, having won back to back Missouri State High Schools Activity Association (MSHSAA) championships at the age of 22 (the youngest coach to accomplish that fate) at Springfield (Mo.) Catholic High School.
Mitts graduated from Rockhurst University in 1992 with a
Bachelor of Arts degree in secondary education, and from the
University of Missouri-Kansas City in 1995 with a Master of Arts
degree in higher education administration, emphasis in athletic
administration. Mitts is also a 2004 graduate of the nationally
recognized NCAA Women Coaches Academy and successfully completed
the Dimension II stage of the program in 2005.
As a two-sport standout for the Lady Hawks, Mitts earned all-America honors in volleyball and basketball. She was also Regional Player of the Year in volleyball as a senior, and was a two-time scholastic all-American.
Mitts was an award-winning basketball player at St. Teresa's Academy in Kansas City, earning All-America and Academic All-America recognition as a senior, and all-state kudos her final two seasons. She was named Kansas City Metro Female Athlete of the Year in 1987 and that same year was named St. Teresa's "Academy Girl" for outstanding leadership in academics and athletics as well as excellence in moral, ethical and religious characteristics.
In 1996, Mitts was named one of the "Top 29 Young People under 30" by Kansas City Magazine. The following year the Kansas City Sons and Daughters of Columbus honored Mitts as "Female Columbiana of the Year" and "Women in Leadership" for outstanding service.
One of the things Mitts enjoys about Southern is the high level of competition in the MIAA.
"The MIAA offers an extremely challenging and humbling experience on a professional level," she said "Night in and night out, we are not only competing against some of the best talent in the nation, but our conference has some of the most knowledgeable and successful coaches that would rank up against the best coaches at the major college level.
"Our program has consistently positioned ourselves into the top four of the league. The exciting part of competing at such a high level is that by finishing in the top three in the MIAA, we also position ourselves to be looked upon as one of the top eight in the region and top 20 nationally. It has been, and continues to be, our ultimate goal to represent MSSU in the NCAA postseason."
In April of 2007, she was appointed the NCAA Regional Chair of the South Central Basketball Championships. In addition to her coaching duties, Mitts serves as co-faculty sponsor of MSSU Catholic Campus Ministry. Mitts is also an instructor of Kinesiology at Missouri Southern and is partnered with head softball coach Bill Gray to oversee the newly formed children's membership, "The Cub Club".

Frank Christian | 1952-2012
Frank Christian, a virtuoso guitarist and songwriter who made critically acclaimed albums and contributed to Nanci Griffith's Grammy-winning "Other Voices, Other Rooms" project, died Dec. 24 in New York after battling pneumonia.
Mr. Christian, who recorded four solo albums and played on works by Griffith, Suzanne Vega, Dave Van Ronk, Christine Lavin, John Gorka and others, was 60.
Griffith's version of Mr. Christian's "Three Flights Up" was a highlight of her "Other Voices" album, and he played guitar on that Jim Rooney-produced track, as well.
"It's a very sad song — two people parting company but parting on good terms, cherishing the passion they shared, celebrating that," Griffith wrote in "Nanci Griffith's Other Voices: A Personal History Of Folk Music." "Frank Christian also happens to be one of the most incredible acoustic guitar players I've ever met. ... He not only writes great songs; he also is a preserver of Delta blues and country blues."
As a teen, Mr. Christian studied jazz guitar and literature. He released his debut album in 1982, impressing Van Ronk, Jack Hardy and other Greenwich Village folk scene mainstays. Van Ronk would later record Mr. Christian's "Where Were You Last Night." Mr. Christian waited 13 years to record "From My Hands," which featured Griffith, The Band's Garth Hudson and others.
"He didn't record much, but he could play rings around anyone," wrote masterful songwriter Eric Taylor in an online post. "Incredible musician, and a loving and caring friend."
