Billy Cooper, the trumpeter who provides the soundtrack to many an England Test, is an accomplished musician with a keen sense of mischief. So whenever Shane Watson has started a spell of bowling during this match, and when he walked out to bat, he has been accompanied by the theme from the 1984 film Ghostbusters.
It was Watson, you may recall, who was so spooked by his 2005 visit to the Lumley Castle Hotel that overlooks this ground that he chose to share a room with his team-mate Brett Lee rather than spend the night alone in his own. According to local legend, the spirit of Lily Lumley, thrown down a well by two priests for rejecting the Catholic faith, still stalks the building and its grounds.
Yet even with the 14th-century stronghold prominent on the brow of the hill, there was nothing spectral to worry Australia yesterday. The problem for them was the larger-than-life presence of Stuart Broad, who frightened the tourists at least as much as any phantom could have managed.
A demon spell of seam bowling before lunch from the England bowler demonstrated exactly why, despite the grating demeanour, the regular fitness worries and the mercurial form, he remains such an integral member of this team.
In the first three Tests Broad took only six wickets, at 52 runs apiece. Yet he is often asked to produce spells of bowling when the ball is soft and conditions are unhelpful. Broad is not sufficiently consistent to be considered world-class, but when he finds his rhythm he can cause a level of danger to batsmen that few other bowlers can match.
Broad's finest performance in an Ashes match to date remains his burst on the second afternoon at The Oval four years ago. Four key Australian wickets, culminating in a haul of 5 for 37, was the decisive contribution with the ball that enabled England to regain the urn. Though his work yesterday morning did not influence the match in such dramatic fashion, it was just as impressive. These were ideal conditions in which to bowl seam and Broad – running in from the Lumley End, naturally – exploited them wonderfully.
Sometimes Broad seems to forget what type of bowler he is, or he is asked to bowl in a manner that does not always suit his qualities. Although he resisted the temptation to give Broad the short-leg fielder he craved, Alastair Cook realised the bowler was at his best and simply allowed him to get on with his job.
The rewards were immediate. David Warner, promoted to open the innings alongside Chris Rogers, was quickly presented with the batsman's nightmare conundrum: to play or to leave? Warner chose the latter, realised his mistake, but it was too late as the ball crashed into his off stump.
Usman Khawaja fared no better. Both he and Warner have played county cricket – indeed, Warner did so for Durham – and should know the importance of being aware of your off stump when batting in this country. Yet, like Warner, Khawaja appeared to forget this principle.
The stroke looked elegant; the result was ridiculous. Khawaja shaped to allow the ball to pass outside his off stump but was caught in two minds, and international cricket rarely forgives indecision. A flick off the toe of the bat, an easy catch for Matt Prior, and Khawaja was on his way for a duck.
Now Broad was bubbling and bristling, and the batsmen could not have looked more jittery if they had found themselves in a pitch-black corridor in Lumley Castle at the dead of night. Broad hunted them, coaxing just enough movement from the wicket and threatening to strike with every ball.
Not even Michael Clarke, Australia's captain and best batsman, could deny Broad, although it was a foolish shot that gave England's predator his third victim. How strange it was to see Clarke drive loosely at a full delivery outside off stump and offer a simple catch to Cook at first slip.
At that stage it appeared as though Australia had no answer to the bustling Broad. Since the débâcle at Lord's, though, this team have improved considerably. England's 2-0 lead after three matches was sufficient to retain the urn, yet Australia played the better cricket throughout the Third Test at Old Trafford, and they have done so again here.
Broad's spell was magnificent, and he returned from the Finchale End to pick up Watson, but if the trend of the first two days is maintained Australia can win here. And it may be Cook, not Clarke, who is left looking like he has seen a ghost.
Vaughan says drop Hot Spot
The row over Hot Spot took another twist yesterday when it was ridiculed by former England captains Michael Vaughan and Alec Stewart.
Warren Brennan, who designed the thermal-imaging camera that should enable the third umpire to detect thin edges, has called for the removal of protective coating on bats in order for Hot Spot to work as effectively as possible.
Yet Vaughan said bluntly: "I don't think Hot Spot can carry on. He's admitted his system doesn't work when bats have got covering on, and that's not going to stop. With that statement, it has to go."
Stewart added: "I'd suggest he takes his technology back to the nets and improve on it. It's just not good enough."
The Decision Review System will be discussed by cricket officials after this Ashes series.

An art thief pulled off a coup on Tuesday (June 19) when he walked out a Manhattan art gallery carrying a $150,000 Salvador Dali painting titled "Cartel de Don Juan Tenorio."
Police are searching for a thin balding man who was captured on security tapes casually pulling the small painting off the wall of the third-floor gallery and stuffing it into a black shopping bag. He then calmly took the elevator down the ground floor and disappeared into Manhattan, reports the New York Daily News.
"Cartel des Don Juan Tenorio" is an 11-inch watercolor produced by the Spanish surrealist in 1949 was part of the inaugural exhibition at the Venus Over Manhattan art gallery, which only opened in May.
In July 2011, a man strolled into a San Francisco art gallery and heisted a Picasso drawing in much the same way.

The Perfect Boot!
These boots were my first ever internet footwear order. I was banking on needing to send these boots back with the free returns policy (given that I had tried on nearly every ankle boot in New Zealand and could not find one that fitted my narrow ankles/legs). But to my delight, these funky lace-ups are a dream (and turned up in just a few days)! They are truly the perfect boot and I am one very happy girl! Perfect fit, perfect heel height and totally cool. Nothing like it in the shops. They fit like a glove to any size foot and any size ankle! I love them! Thanks Style Tread. Can't wait to shop again.

Some were roadside "attractions", a lot of them were obtained when they were young as pets by unthinking people. Some were living in unimaginable conditions in small circuses, amusement parks etc. All have a sad story to tell. But now they are pretty free to live out their lives being well taken care of.

Harold, I must apologise for not mentioning that fact. They are in fact a
mixed bunch, some of my seeds having come a my friend in Melbourne, who is
also an avid grower. The purple is from an earlier cross of my own, which
produced several look alikes.
Harold you would be the first person I would think of, to introduce these in
the US. If you know of a legal, and fairly reliable way to bring these in,
let me know. I am hoping Colleen will introduce my best efforts, but I think
I need to wait a year or 2 to be sure I have enough stock, and they don't up
and die on me.
Another small problem - when we shifted house, I planned ahead and
economised on my planting. Several tiny PCI's went into each 10" pot. The
attatched photo shows the resultant effect. Next winter, I will have to
divide them and try and sort them out. At present I am photographing every
one that blooms, and recording it's exact location.
Cheers, Jan

During therapeutic riding, a special needs
individual's body moves in a way very similar to
human walking. The horse moves up and down; side to
side; and back and forth in synchronized, repetitive
patterns, much the same as the human gait. This
movement improves the rider's balance, body
symmetry, muscle tone, and head and neck control.
The success of the riders has been
unbelievable. Two of our autistics non-verbal
children spoke their first words after a month of
therapeutic riding. The children were able to ask
the horse to "walk" and praise the horse by saying
"good boy Slapshot".

Read an Q&A with WCR Founder Jennifer Pape, as appeared in SHE Magazine, Kenosha WI.
We have an ambitious goal to raise funds for a major improvement in the ability of Willow Creek Ranch to provide on-going safety and consistency for our special riders. Currently, we are at the mercy of our wonderful Wisconsin weather and we want to provide an indoor arena to eliminate late cancellations of lessons due to rainstorms, cold weather or the hot sun.
Our goal is to raise $250,000 to build a facility for riding with a parent/visitor viewing area, tack room, handicapped accessible restroom, horse stalls, and a multi-purpose room for training, meetings and vocational therapy.

Willow Creek Ranch is excited to announce our latest plans to better serve our riders—an indoor arena! Wisconsin is well known for quick changing weather and it really impacts our lessons and our riders. One day our riders need sweaters, the next day, sunscreen. Will the rain hold off or do we need to cancel our ride? Fall comes and the sun goes down earlier and earlier, eliminating that 5:30 or 6:30 evening ride.
So, for the safety and consistency for our special needs riders, we are asking for the help of our friends and supporters to build an indoor arena. [ Read more... ]

My husband is a native cracker here in Port Salerno, lived here all his life and I am from Columbus, Ohio and am a true Buckeye fan.
Roni purchased this apartment in 1976
This area is a nice quiet and safe area and we live beside the units on a separate lot, the neighborhood has a relaxing old Florida feel. I have lived here my entire life and remember what Stuart was like many, many years ago. Stuart has all the amenities of a big city but the relaxed feel of a small town. The best thing is Stuart has a 4 story ordinance for condos, we have no high rise condos which keep the traffic down and room for the preserve areas and public parks.
The Banyan spans the entire length of our home and our grandchildren used to climb up inside the tree and make forts in it. Port Salerno used to be a port of call back in the day and today it is called The Sailfish Capital of the World. Stuart was voted most beautiful city in 2008.
This was the best choice I could have made for a place to stay in the area we wanted to fish and relax at! Plenty of fishing opportunities close by, and many beach areas to visit within a short drive. Cool places to get a drink..a meal..and live entertainment within short walking distance! Very pleasant folks in the area..everyone was kind and helpful! Ronnie and Rick were phenomenal hosts, answering our questions..pointing us in the right direction for places to go, things to see, stuff to do. Their units are impeccably clean, well equipped, and like brand new! We could not have asked for more..it was perfect! We look forward to renting again next year from them, and my only complaint is that they didn't kidnap me so that I didn't have to go back to the crappy Michigan weather..LOL
We have been enjoying the middle unit for severall days now and are very pleased. The apartment is fresh, clean and tastefully decorated. All the furnishings look brand new. Fresh flowers were even on the table. The photos are accurate depictions of the property. We have enjoyed the community of nearby Stuart and are making use of the Y and Golds Gym. The beach area is about a 15 minute drive and there is lots public beach access. This is our first time trying out the Snowbird life and we already know it is going to be difficult to leave this little cottage and the lifestyle here. We have been eating in quite a bit and the kitchen is very complete for doing that. As time goes on, we will try out some of the local restaurants. This is a fishing area so there are many restaurants featuring seafood. There are beautiful boats and docks right at the end of the street. You can't go wrong if you decide to choose this unit for a long or short stay.
We were very pleased with the property. The description and pictures were accurate to the property, and everything was very clean and well maintained. The owners clearly considered needs of those visiting and included a coffee maker, iron and ironing board, nice linens and little touches that made it seem like home. They were very helpful and responsive to us while we were there. We will certainly consider staying there again, and referring others as well.
The waterfront restaurants are beautiful in Stuart, must go to The Pelican Cafe in Historic downtown Stuart and walk on the boardwalk and take in the small shops and public park. They Lyric theater has live concerts and entertainment. You must go on a sunset sail on The Lily, located on the Pier in downstown Stuart, tks are around $35 for a 2 hr. sail, you can bring snacks and wine aboard and just relax on the quiet sail. We loved it!

An object of the present invention is to make such apparatus better fulfill the practical desiderata particularly with respect to convenience in use, reliability and simplicity of construction.
In the prior art a certain number of perfusers are known which are used for chemical therapy the most simple one of which is the conventional drip feed system. Bottles placed sufficiently high above the bed of the patient or under pressure by bubbling a gas therethrough are hooked up to the patient by means of tubes which are long enough so as to give the patient a certain degree of freedom of movement. Such treatment can in some case last for several weeks.
Syringe-type perfusers or electrically operated pumps have the drawback of being powered by an electric current. Such a source of electricity is preferably a fixed supply since the reliability thereof is limited. On the other hand, the equipment is cumbersome and has a considerable weight which makes it unsuitable for being transported.
A new type of perfuser called a chronofuser enables certain of these drawbacks to be overcome by using a clockwork for the drive means. Such an apparatus is nevertheless delicate, expensive, noisy and does not enable intensive use.
The object of the present invention is a perfuser which operates independently, is small in size and weight, sturdy and quiet, simple to maintain and relatively inexpensive.
The apparatus comprises a first casing of flexible material for containing liquid connected to an outlet feed tube through a replaceable porous plug disposed in the path of flow of the liquid, a second casing surrounding the first and provided with means for connecting it to a source of compressed gas in order to create a certain level of pressure therein, manometric measuring means being provided inside the second casing for checking said pressure.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the two casings are cylindrical and coaxial, the first being formed of deformable plastic material and the second being formed of transparent plastic material so that the indications of the manometric measuring means contained in the second casing are viewable.
According to another preferred feature of the invention, the manometric measuring means comprises a piston-and-cylinder unit, wherein the length extending out of the cylinder gives an indication of the pressure.
Other features and advantages of the invention will be brought out in the remainder of the description and the accompanying drawing which are made merely by way of example.
The sole FIGURE of the drawing shows in crosssection an embodiment of the perfuser according to the invention.
In the FIGURE a first tubular casing 1 formed of transparent plastic material is shown. The ends of this casing are closed off by two end portions 2 and 3. A
second casing 4 also of tubular shape is disposed inside the first casing 1 and is adapted to contain the liquid to be injected. The second casing is formed of a plastic material whose walls are sufficiently flexible to enable deformation. The second casing is connected to the end portion 2 by means of a tubular element 5 housed inside the end portion 2 and sealingly joined by stuffing box system. A threaded sleeve 6 enables the scaling function to be effected. The tubular element 5 is effectively extended downwardly by a connecting member 7 having a porous plug 8 arranged inside. This porous material plug interposed in the path of flow of the liquid causes a pressure drop and assures a constant liquid flow rate. The upper end of the casing 4 is closed off by a cylinder 9 disposed inside thereof. A piston 10 is adapted to slide in this cylinder. The upper end of the piston 10 acts as a visual indicator depending on whether a band 11 on the piston p extends beyond the cylinder 9, or not. The band 11 may be red in color for example whereas a band 12 also on the piston is blue and indicates that the pressure is sufficient in the casing 1.
Thus, the different markings on the portion of the piston 10 which projects beyond the open end of the cylinder 9 assist in visually determining the amount of projection of that portion beyond the open end of the cylinder. The upper end portion 3 of the outer casing 1 is provided with an inlet valve 13 to which a source of compressed air may be attached. The valve 13 is preferably an automobile tire-type valve.
The operation of the apparatus is easy to understand.
Once the casing 4 is filled with liquid, the casing 1 is connected to a source of compressed air to produce a particular pressure. When this pressure is great enough, which can be checked by the pressure indicator ll, 12 which is in its low position, the compressed air supply is disconnected and the apparatus is ready to operate. The pressure exerted on the flexible casing 4 causes a slow flow of the liquid through the porous plug 8. It should be noted that the connecting member 7 is replaceable so as to modify the flow rate by changing the plug.
The apparatus is filled by first producing a pressure in the casing in order to compress the casing 4. The air is thereby driven out. The filling per se is then effected by connecting the connecting member 7 to the liquid feed tube and then opening the valve 13. Owing to its elasticity, the casing 4 tends to return to its cylindrical shape. The liquid is drawn in and refills the casing 4. This is of course, carried out with the connecting member removed.
The connecting member is then put back into place and the valve 13 is connected to a source of compressed gas such as a pump. The apparatus is then ready to be used.
It should be noted that in addition to the pressure control possible by watching the position of the bands 11 and 12 extending out of the cylinder 9 it is possible to get an idea of the quantity of liquid remaining in the casing 4. In fact in proportion to the flow of the liquid the casing 4 decreases in volume by collapsing and forming two substantially parallel walls closer and closer together. By watching the casing edgewise through the transparent walls of the casing 1, one can also get an indication of the amount of liquid left.
The apparatus described above provides numerous advantages. It operates independently, is reduced in size and weight, it can be carried in a pocket or secured to the body for example an arm or leg. Further, it comprises no moving parts which makes it free from any operational mishap and renders it absolutely silent in operation. It has a very simple construction, and is simple to operate and very economical.
The apparatus has been described in use as a perfuser but it is obvious that it is capable of many other applications. In particular it could be used for greasing machines and in general for any problem requiring slow, regular injection of a liquid. The invention is of course not limited to the embodiment described and illus* trated which is given merely by way of example.
What is claimed is:
1. Apparatus for slowly injecting a liquid comprising an inner cylinder casing of flexible material for containing the liquid to be injected; a closed transparent outer cylindrical casing surrounding said inner cylindrical casing; means providing restricted egress ofliquid from said inner cylindrical casing including an outlet tube communicating with said inner cylindrical casing and extending through said outer cylindrical casing in sealed relation thereto; means for admitting fluid under pressure into said outer cylindrical casing and outside of said inner cylindrical casing to press upon the latter in a collapsing sense to force liquid from said inner cylindrical casing through said outlet tube; a cylinder fitted within one end of said inner cylindrical casing which is remote from the communication of the latter with said outlet tube, said cylinder having a closed end within said inner cylindrical casing and an open opposite end; and a pressure indicator piston member reciprocable in said cylinder and having a portion projecting beyond said opposite end of the latter, said piston member being movable relatively to said inner cylindrical casing in response to fluid pressure in said outer cylindrical casing, whereby the moved position of said indicator piston member relative to said inner cylindrical casing indicates the fluid pressure acting on said inner cylindrical casing, the pressure indicating position of said indicator piston member being visible through said transparent outer cylindrical casing.
2. Apparatus according to claim 1 in which the portion of said piston projecting beyond said open opposite end of said cylinder is marked differently along said portion to assist in visually determining the amount of projection of said portion beyond said open opposite end.

Crushers thumped for fourth straight time on road, 9-0
CRESTWOOD, Ill. -- The Lake Erie Crushers lost their fourth straight road contest on Tuesday evening at Standard Bank Stadium, dropping the series opener, 9-0, to the Windy City ThunderBolts.
The loss for the Crushers (51-37) was their sixth in their last seven games, since winning 11 in a row, while the win for the T-Bolts (44-44) was their 16th in August, third most in the Frontier League.
Lake Erie's offense was silenced by right-hander Markus Solbach (4-1) who went the distance to toss the complete game shutout. The Crushers had just four runners in scoring position all night long.
Windy City plated a pair of runs and capitalized on a pair of throwing errors with two outs in the bottom of the third. Chase Tucker walked with two outs to start the rally, before Evan Button singled to right field. Daniel Bowman's throw from right to third base went up the line, and allowed Tucker to score. Andrew Davis retrieved the ball in foul ground, but his errant throw to home plate allowed Button to advance to third, and he scored moments later on Mike Torres's single.
Chad Cregar led off the fourth inning with a solo homer, his ninth of the season, before the T-Bolts put the game out of reach with a five-run sixth inning. Zach Aakhus drove home the first run on an RBI single, and Doug Joyce singled as well to plate the next two. Andrew Bauer came home on Jayce Ray's sacrifice fly, and Joyce scored on Tucker's run scoring single.
The T-Bolts added one more in the eighth inning on a two-out RBI single from Evan Button.
Solbach picked up the victory, allowing seven hits and fanning seven in the process without issuing any free passes. Matt Smith (5-5) took the loss, after allowing seven runs, six earned on seven hits while fanning five over 5.1 innings of action.
Craig Hertler led the way for the Crushers, going 3-for-4 in the contest. Lake Erie pitching coach Chris Mongiardo was ejected in the eighth inning for arguing a call with the field umpire, Sal Giacomantonio.
The Crushers will continue their three-game series on the road against the Windy City Thunderbolts on Wednesday night. Right-hander Alex Kaminsky (7-5, 3.50) and the ThunderBolts will counter with lefty Matt Wickswat (5-11, 4.87). The first pitch is scheduled for 8:05 PM.

Welcome to my home site
Marine Artist/Painter -Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada
I'm a marine landscape/seascape painter working in acrylics, watercolour and oil.
I paint most frequently in a realistic style; encorporating semi-abstract elements and modifying colours to improve composition and add interest and visual impact. Over the years, I've taken many life drawing classes and workshops in order to place figures in my work where they may tell a story by what they're doing; but mostly I enjoy the rugged beauty of the west coast marine scene.
I also enjoy painting some semi-abstract seascapes to try and capture the feeling of the west coast ocean's various moods.
We were west coast boaters for years, and were privileged to previously live on the waterfront, where my studio overlooked eastern Vancouver Island from Saanichton Bay, near Sidney, BC, just outside Victoria, in Canada. We're now enjoying retirement in Nanaimo, BC.
I'm pleased to have my work in some private and corporate collections across Canada and the US.
I've adopted a simple pricing system for paintings based on size. If you're interested in aquiring one which I've not priced, just drop a note to me from the CONTACTS page and I'll send you the price. (The price formula is increased slightly each year to protect collectors.)

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the amazing job you did for my wedding flowers 21.05.11
There are some pics on the below link if you would like to take a look:
They were so beautiful and exactly what I was after!
Thanks again!
The flowers were AMAZING, truly spectacular – everyone commented on them! They were exactly how I imagined – but better, boxed so nicely they presentation was immaculate. The colours were perfect, exactly like my reference and matched in with the bridesmaid outfits so well. The "small" bunches of gyp for the tables were really generous and the quality and care that had gone into the preparation was obvious. I was so delighted and releived when they showed up on the day, bang on time and your fast and friendly response throughout the whole ordering process made everything so easy. I was nervous about doing it all remotely but you put up with my 'million emails and seemed to know exactly what I was after, even going out of your way to send me photos of the flowers instore to check we were on the same page. I couldn't be more thrilled with the result and will definitely be recommending you. Thanks again! Jessie

From the Associated Press:
A recent study found benzene and other pollutants in the air at seven natural gas drilling sites in three counties in West Virginia.
But the study by West Virginia University Public School of Health chairman Michael McCawley found only one site where there was concern, the Maury pad in Wetzel County where high levels of benzene were found.
Benzene levels at the Maury pad were 85 parts per billion, compared to a normal range between one and 30 parts per billion. There was more diesel truck activity at the Maury and the trucks could have produced most of the benzene detected, said McCawley.
McCawley released the findings Friday during a public health conference at Ogelbay Park, The Intelligencer and Wheeling News-Register reported.
He said benzene levels at the other drilling sites in Wetzel, Marion and Brooke counties were more like the exposure one would experience living in a city.
"Benzene is a carcinogen and causes leukemia," McCawley said. "There is no level at which there is no risk. However, the lower the level, the lower the risk is likely to be. ... In the debates to follow this, people will be talking about this at their own level of subjectivity."
The study, which was conducted for the state Department of Environmental Protection, also examined light emissions, dust and noise levels, and airborne radiation levels at the drilling sites in Wetzel, Brooke and Marion counties.
The DEP said in a report submitted Friday to legislative leaders that no new rules regarding air quality near horizontal drilling pads are needed at this time, according to The State Journal (http://bit.ly/11SbaJn).
McCawley said a similar study is expected in other Northern Panhandle counties. It will also include diesel emissions and long-term health data from local hospitals.
"The concern I have with noise and populations is that studies have shown that interfering with sleep, as noise can do, can cause a rise in hypertension," McCawley said. "We have problems with hypertension already here in West Virginia. The levels that can interfere with sleep are above 55 decibels. ... The noise on the pad when they are fracking runs about 120-130 decibels. That's enough to cause serious damage and enough to be painful if not wearing protection."
The study was one of three mandated by the Legislature during a special session in December 2011.

So I'm relatively new to brewing, and due to a distaste for beer, have found a sweet haven in hard ciders.
I've had a lot of difficulties in the past finding information on how to brew ciders, as most of the information on the web has been about brewing beers.
My first attempt was with a friend, and we started off simple enough: Gallons of unpasteurized cider + yeast = hard cider.
Our results were decent. A nice clear brew, with plenty of flavor initially, and with some of the brew, we attempted cold distillation to make a harder drink (with decent success considering. Clean crisp and apple-y but to those that drank it without abandon, it certainly packed a punch). We bottled, we had bottles that popped, (I have yet to figure out how to kill off my yeast), and about a year later we went back to try the cider we bottled again. Tasted watery as hell.
Well, a year after that, I figured a cold distillation of the pre-fermented cider (basically freezing and draining while it melted, creating a more concentrated, sugary, apple-y cider while having mildly cider-y ice crystals remaining), and a reduction from about 20 gallons of cider to 10 gallons of my more concentrated cider, (not exactly 2-1 but tried for close) would help decrease the water content, and thus, hopefully, turn out a better flavored brew. Freeze distillation was chosen because I hadd read that heating the cider could have some interesting effects on activating the gelling properties of the pectin among other things.
The experiment went all right, except for a few small hiccups. The concentration did some wonky stuff to how the brew reacted. After a month or so with no bubbly action seen within the air lock after about 2 months, I racked with the hope of introducing more yeast and seeing what happened. Big surprise when the carbonation was indeed present in the brew, but simply due to forces I do not understand, the carbonation did not release. (BTW, the watery excess from my pre-fermentation seemed to ferment on its own possibly from wild airborne yeasts QUITE fast). It also tasted sugary, but a bit bitter, which discouraged little old second attempt me. I stuck with it though and racked every two weeks. I ended up with a cloudy but gorgeously tasting cider about 5 months in. Because it was cloudy I decided to give it a bit more time before bottling. Instead I ended up with a sour (but no bitter) brew that somehow still got notice from those I tested it upon. (most of the beer brewers I talked to said "not enough sugar" but "had some really wild complexities"). I let it sit for the rest of the year, undisturbed, until I tossed it almost exactly a year after starting it to start a fresh batch. Reading a little on the forums about how aging in bottles can really affect that taste profile, I truly regret doing so (or at the very least, I should have tried it a year later).
So this year, it's back to the drawing board. Doing much the same as the second attempt, but with the first racking closer to the 3-4 month mark (just did the first racking at about a week and a half ago), but am hoping to add sugar at future racking intervals, possibly by using a mixture of raw sugar and apple juice (basically as a medium closer to the cider I started with, rather than diluting with water).
A secondary experiment is going with 3 gallons of Pomegranate juice with additional raw sugar (no concentrating), which seems relatively promising thus far.
Using WP720 yeast this year, mainly choosing it on the fact that a mead yeast might deal with a syrupy starter better, but Mostly with this project I'm heading into no mans land from what I can see, and am just having fun with it.
I'm more than happy to take any advice you all might have, especially if you have any about the addition of sugars, and anything that might help me in killing of my yeast and stopping the brewing when it's time (obviously something I haven't done well the first time 'round).
But anyhow, Hello!

Butch Jones wants offense to be 'tight end-oriented'
The statistics from Year 1 of Butch Jones's tenure don't suggest that Tennessee is a place a tight end would want to play.
The position produced a total of 15 receptions last season, accounting for just 7.8 percent of the team's receptions. Those 15 catches went for a total of 98 yards, just less than five percent of Tennessee's total passing yardage. There were three straight weeks — blowout losses to Alabama, Missouri and Auburn — in which a Tennessee tight end didn't catch a pass. There wasn't a game last season in which the tight ends combined for more than three receptions.
But those numbers, Jones said, are an anomaly based on a series of unfortunate events. With the position re-stocked thanks to better health and a pair of new additions, the Vols plan to make tight end an integral part of the offense in 2014.
"We want to be a tight end-oriented offense," Jones said last week. "... Now we have a little bit of depth, but we also have competition there as well, which is great to see. The competition has really elevated the play of a lot of individuals at that particular spot."
Last season, there were barely enough healthy bodies to have anything resembling real competition. Fifth-year senior Joseph Ayres converted from defensive line to play the position, but tore his ACL just two weeks into the season. Redshirt junior Alex Ellis also suffered a season-ending injury in the preseason, and sophomore A.J. Branisel, who played in 10 games and caught three of those passes, suffered an ACL tear in November. That left Brendan Downs, now a senior, as the only option. The 6-foot-5, 248-pounder who had spent the his career as a backup to first team All-SEC pick Mychal Rivera, started 11 of 12 games and caught 12 passes for 70 yards on the season.
"We're going to have a lot more depth than we had last year," tight ends coach Mark Elder said. "We had a lot of injuries last year that really depleted the depth at that position. Three season-ending injuries at a tight end position was pretty devastating."
Downs returns and Ellis and Branisel are both healthy. Redshirt sophomore Joe Stocstill, who was recruited as a fullback, will also be a part of the tight end group. But all three are going to find it difficult to find playing time because of the quality of the freshman class.
The Vols brought in two four-star recruits, and both appear to be advanced enough to play right away. Ethan Wolf, a 6-5, 243-pounder from Minster High School in Ohio, appears to be one of the most college-ready players in the Vols' entire vaunted freshman class. He was one of the first four freshmen to have the black stripe on his helmet removed, which resembles a graduation of sorts within the Vols' locker room.
Wolf caught 41 passes for 475 yards and five touchdowns as a high school senior, proving he has the athleticism to be a force in the passing game along with the size to matter in the running game.
"Ethan Wolf has a chance to be special," Jones said.
And so does fellow freshman Daniel Helm, a four-star recruit from Cheatham, Ill. He's put on 15 pounds since he was recruited to bulk up to 6-4, 240. He said he still isn't as comfortable blocking in the running game as he needs to be, but after catching 44 passes for 821 yards and 17 touchdowns as a high school senior, he can be a factor in the passing game right away. He and Wolf believe they can play right away and together.
"If I didn't think I could play with (Wolf) on the field (in two tight end sets), I probably wouldn't have come here," Helm said. "He's a pretty good tight end. Although you always want to have that competitive edge of 'yeah, I think I could beat him out,' there's a point where you have to respect your competition."
The Vols didn't spend much time in two tight end sets last season, but Elder expects that to change.
"(Offensive coordinator Mike Bajakian) does a great job of adjusting year-by-year to the strength of the team," Elder said. "As we play and as we play well, we're going to be in more multiple tight end packages and things along those lines. I'm excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. Tight end can be as big a playmaker in our offense as any position on the field."

Pure Energy Systems News
Our friends over at RAR Energia seem to be very busy with their mammoth gravity motor construction project. Having finished the one in Porto Alegre, Brazil (supposedly operational), now they are posting update photos for their build in Gilman, Illinois, USA.
I think it's funny that people question that these photos are real. They say: "They must be photoshopped. No one with that kind of money would spend it on something like this."
The recent image uploads also include diagrams of the system.
I'm curious if anyone in the world is attempting to build a scale version from these diagrams and from the patent information. Please let me know, if you are involved in such an attempt, or if you know someone. We'd love to follow your progress.
I find this RAR Energia project to be one of the most intriging out there.
Here are the photos. Click on them for enlargements. For translation purposes, the text on the images reads:
Engine exclusively using gravity with power generator in Gilman, Illinois, USA November 22, 2013
Frank Akland over at E-CatWorld also posted a story about this.

REGGAE star Smiley Culture flashed a knife at a cop and said: "You want some?
I do", before stabbing himself to death, an inquiry heard.
A Met officer said he watched in horror as Smiley, 48, plunged the blade into
his own heart during a drugs bust at his home.
The singer, real name David Emmanuel, had gone into the kitchen of the mansion
to make a cup of tea.
One source said of the Independent Police Complaints Commission inquiry: "The
officer said he was monitoring Mr Emmanuel who picked up a knife, waved it
in his direction and said, 'Do you want some?'
"A split second later Mr Emmanuel turned the blade towards himself, said 'I
do' and stabbed himself in the chest."
Details of the probe come days after 2,500 people angry at Smiley's death
marched on the Met's HQ, demanding justice for him. Ex London Mayor Ken
Livingstone said the black community is at "boiling point" over his death.
Smiley's suicide came 90 minutes after four detectives arrested him at his
home in Warlingham, Surrey, last month. The father of two — who had 80s hits
with Police Officer and Cockney Translation — was already on bail over a
£250,000 cocaine seizure.
The cops' supervision of Smiley is a major part of the inquiry. They did not
handcuff him. Nephew Merlin Emmanuel said: "It beggars belief they let him
near sharp utensils."
However, sources stress the cops are being treated as witnesses, not suspects.
The IPCC probe is being overseen by South East commissioner Mike Franklin. He
said: "Our objective is to get the facts. I would ask people not to rush to
