BBQ Events: Grill Kings 2006
So what happened at Grill Kings? I've had a couple of days to mull this over and think about it. So let's take a look at the event with a fresh, relaxed set of eyes. I'm sorry that this is so long, but I want to get it all out on the table. I spent a lot of time, effort and money promoting this event and I feel that you need to know the good and the bad.
Let's start with the good things.
- It is a good thing that this event takes place at all. Like it or not,
is not barbeque country. Dean and his team at Grill Kings deserve major kudos for putting this event on each year. New York
- Trophies were given out to third place and ribbons out to fifth place. It's great to recognize as many teams as possible. Grill Kings gives out some nice large customized trophies as well.
- The bands were pretty good and at the other end of the parking lot. Bands are nice, but if you're setup right next to the amps, it can get a little tough by the end of the day.
- The port-a-potties were plentiful and immaculate.
- The crowds this year were much better behaved than last. We didn't have anyone trying to steal our turn in foods and no spectators demanding to be fed.
- The chance to meet some more of the competitors.
- Ice was available from a vendor at the event at a reasonable price. While ice was not free as at many events, the prices were comparable to 7-11.
- Power was provided to every site and was reliable.
- The spaces were clearly marked and well laid out.
Now, let's look at the problems. Now not all of the problems I mention are major problems. Many of them are minor annoyances and if they had not compounded I would have long forgotten them. But the problems continued to mount and nothing was resolved.
- If I had to sum it all up, the major problem was a total lack of communication from the organizers and contest reps. I saw the organizer a few times both days, and the KCBS reps not at all. This is very unusual as at most contests both the organizer and reps are in your cooking area many times a day.
- The event was miss-represented from the beginning. After last year's event at
, the organizer immediately began promoting Belmont Racetrack for this year's event. It was promoted as being held in the racetrack and "part of the Hecksher Park experience." There was talk by the organizer about the event being held next to the actual race course. Belmont has a beautiful festival area which is where it was being touted as where the event would be held. Belmont
Two weeks before the event, the layout is published on the Grill Kings website and the event is placed in the outermost parking lot of Belmont, about 1/4 mile to 1/2 mile from the main entrance to the race track. There's no shade and the lot is surrounded by the
Cross Island Parkwayon one side and a busy major roadway on the other. To claim that we were part of the experience is like saying that you're at Belmont when you're in the long term extended parking lot and need a bus to get to the terminal. Kennedy Airport
- The organizers touted having 100 teams at this event, when the actual number turned out to be about 40. I honestly don't have a problem with this as it's irrelevant to me how many teams show up as long as the prize money is as promised. But to many of the other cooks, this was an issue. They feel that winning a small contest is not as prestigious as winning a large event.
- The organizers touted an expected attendance of 30,000 spectators. Now that's a wild claim which doubled last years numbers. Again, this isn't an issue for me, but it was a major problem for the vendors. I would say that less than 5,000 people showed up. You can attribute that to many things such as the weather, the entrance fee and the lack of attractions, but this wasn't the first Grill Kings event. A more reasonable number should have been presented. By the end, vendors were selling rapidly defrosting meat for bargain basement prices.
- Team sites were reassigned from the published layout on Saturday morning. While this isn't a major issue, it's an annoyance when you tell friends and family where you'll be only to have them have to search for you when they arrive.
- Guest passes. There was a $5 entry for adults and a $2 fee for children. Unfortunately my family was unable to attend, but my friend Pete's family did. Pete was competing, at my urging, for the first time. His family of 4 adults paid to enter the event each day. Apparently the organizer provided guest passes for family member of the teams, which would have allowed them to enter for free, but this was not communicated to every team. I didn't know about this until late in the event and Pete didn't find out until after it was all over.
- This was an expensive contest to enter. To cook in the KCBS sanctioned event a team paid $300. To enter the PureFire grilling contest the fee was an additional $50. Most events include entrance to any ancillary contests in the KCBS fee. For other contests in
the entrance fees run from $100 to $225. New York
- Most events give something back to the contestants. It can be as simple as coffee and bagels on Sunday morning, or a t-shirt, a hat or a pin. Some events are very generous and give each team goodie bags that include such things as fire extinguishers and coolers. Grill Kings gave the teams nothing. On Sunday morning I asked the organizer if the teams were getting a t-shirt, which they were selling for $16, I was met with a resounding no.
- While the cash awards remained the same, but the prizes have changed from what was originally posted on the website. I don't know when the prizes were finalized, but I know for example, that the prizes from T-mobile that were promised originally were never given out. I don't know if this is a violation of the KCBS sanctioning agreement, but it needs to be looked at.
health inspectors required each team to have a separate hand washing station in addition to the three compartment sinks required by KCBS. There was nothing about this in the cook's pack and left us scrambling to satisfy the health department. I know a couple of teams were notified prior, but many were not. I know we weren't. Nassau County
- There was a lot of confusion this year during meat inspection this year. KCBS rules state that a team can not begin to marinate or season its meat until the meat has been inspected on site. Usually meat inspection occurs right after you check in at the event. Grill Kings had meat inspectors for the PureFire grilling challenge and a separate inspector for the KCBS event. Unfortunately, the inspectors for the challenge were not properly trained and told us that we were not able to touch the meat for the KCBS contest until it was inspected on Sunday morning! For many teams this caused some real problems getting their meat ready on time. This whole situation could have been avoided had the organizer or reps were more available.
- For the PureFire grilling challenge, teams were required to cook on their charcoal. Many teams did not and this rule wasn't enforced. I don't know if it affected the outcome, but some teams were put at a disadvantage because of this.
- There was no announcement of the cook's meeting for the KCBS contest. If there was one, none of the teams I talked to heard it. I don't even know if a cooks meeting took place.
- Water was provided from one large tank for the teams to haul back to their site. While this isn't uncommon, it's certainly not ideal. What was unique about this event is that the water supply ran out on Saturday afternoon and was not refilled until late Sunday morning. The organizers could have really helped out here but visiting each team and explaining the situation and explaining what they were doing to correct the situation. If I was in that situation, I think I would have offered to buy each team a few gallons of water to tide them over.
- The teams weren't provided with our turn in boxes until about on Sunday morning. Again, there was no announcement that they were available, just word of mouth as the knowledge spread from one team to another. I only knew because I saw them being unboxed in the judges tent as I walked by. Sunday morning is crunch time; the teams don't need to be worried about the location of turn in boxes when the meat is coming off the cooker.
- The judge's tent wasn't secluded enough at this event. While it's interesting to see the judging and the weather was oppressive this year, the judges need to be less accessible to the public. Their tent was completely wide open and smack dab in the middle of the contestants. After I turned in one of my boxes, a table captain called me over and tried to start a conversation. Not good. I don't think there were any shenanigans going on, but the judges need to be more remote next time.
- Garbage was picked up regularly on Saturday, but not so much on Sunday afternoon. The people who were supposed to be doing it were hanging out in the now empty judge's tent and the garbage piled up. There weren't any dumpsters as far as I could find, so we were at the mercy of the clean up crews. I would have liked to dispose of some of the more fragrant garbage myself instead of leaving it in the aisle waiting and fermenting in the hot sun.
- The awards ceremony was scheduled to take place at on Sunday. They were late which is no big deal, but the band called everyone up to the stage at . The viewing area was in the hot sun, without shade or seats. According to the radio, the real feel temperature for Sunday was running at about 108. We were all standing there, tired, hot and wanting to go home. The band just kept playing without explanation which pissed the teams off even more. Many of us returned to our sites to continue breaking down.
- The organizers had stated that the event would run until , but some teams were ready to leave earlier. Security guards blocked the gates with their bodies and cars and would not allow anyone to leave the event. We were told by the guards that this was the order from the organizer and if we wanted out we'd have to talk to them, if we could find them. When one of my team mate's wife threatened to call the cops, the guard laughed at her and said - "What are you a lawyer?" Which - guess what - she is! That shut him up fast and he offered to let her and only her leave.
- Around suddenly the band stopped and with out any sort of announcement Sal, one of the organizers began the awards ceremony. I missed the beginning because of this. Again, no big deal but at this point any mistake was a major problem. I felt bad for Dean and Sal on that stage, because they were getting no love from the audience at that point.
- Score sheets were lost for the individual teams.
- The security guards were snotty all day and night, even when cruising through at in the morning in response to a report of gun shots being fired.
- There was no place to dispose of ashes. A large mound of ash was created by the water tank. The ashes were still smoking and blowing around in the wind last I saw.
- The power was turned off at on Sunday while we were still breaking down.
- And finally a personal slight. Phil, my team mate's truck broke down and needed a jump at the end of the event. Dean did arrange for one of the vendor's to provide it, but he didn't take a minute to make sure that we were alright even as he drove past us twice.
So there you have it. I think that's all of it, but frankly, I'm tired of writing about it. The major problem from my point of view was the lack of communication from the organizers and contest reps. At other events these people are everywhere. They're constantly checking on you and asking what you need or what they can do to make your life easier. Here, they hid out in their air conditioned trailers while we went without water.
But did I have fun? Yes. It's always fun and a high to cook and compete. Winning anything is just the cherry on the cake.
I think that the Grill Kings event is redeemable. It can be fixed, but the organizers need to talk with the teams or better yet get out and cook with some teams and find out what we need. I hope it's back next year, but without some real substantial changes in attitude and execution, I won't be back.

Prattville memories on an LPGA weekend
Mary Richardson, Laura's mom, my parents Roy and Dorothy, probably the weekend I was installed a asst. pastor/youth minister.
The LPGA is playing in Prattville AL this weekend. I have really enjoyed the quality and standouts in woman's golf this year. Many weekends it is more exciting than the other tour.
Prattville holds a very special place in my memory. I bought and placed an engagement ring on my wife the year I lived there. I preached weekly, had three strong youth groups and a very wonderful young adult bible study. We got married and had our first six months of honeymoon there.
It's a bedroom community about 10 miles north of Montgomery, An old cotton mill town with a river running through it, rolling hills, great farm land, lots of hog production, good fishing and an all around good place to live.
On little claim to fame, was playing golf at the Air Force Base in Montgomery, and spotting Chuck Colson who was serving time there for his political crimes, as the time he was working on the grounds crew of the golf course.
This was a long time ago, 1974-75, and we were beginning our life together and I knew I could cut it in the ministry. People loved us and welcomed us into their homes and hearts. I still have an aluminum heavy duty stew pot that was given me during my bachelor months.
I think I made 600 a month that year, apartment provided, raise a bit when married. I got my first paycheck and bought that engagement ring and realized I had no money to live on the rest of the month. Love is stupid.

I remember Prattville--we lived in Huntsville from 1963-1965 in a subdivision called Lily Flagg Acres named for the wife of the man who had a huge cotton field there that backed up to our yard. Love to watch the LPGA--teaches all of us non-Tigers the correct tempo for our swing! Eden

Many in Cayman are counting their blessings as Hurricane Irma moves away from the immediate area. But as the storm makes landfall in Florida Sunday(10 September) and as the scope of the damage begins to emerge from Cuba, the Virgin Islands, and other areas struck by Irma's wrath, it is hardly a time for celebration.
Cayman 27 spoke with Mike Gooding, who gathered at the North West Point dock in West Bay to watch the waves Saturday (9 September). He expressed mixed emotions of relief for the Cayman Islands, and empathy for those already affected or in Irma's future path.
"I've got a lot of friends in the United States, I've got a lot of friends in the Virgin Islands and places like that, and it hurts, you know to see what they had to go through," said Mile Gooding, who gathered at the North West Point dock in West Bay to watch the waves Saturday (9 September). "You know, it's heartbreaking, when you see the videos that they went through, and I know what they had to go through because I've been through it, you understand, during Ivan and I just have to pray for them. You can't do any more."

Yesterday, I got asked when talking to one person, what is a Tech Scout? We were on ours for Rising Stars so I thought this would be a good moment to explain the important Tech Scout (TS).
What many productions do, just before Principle Photography begins is to call a TS. The participants are usually department heads and a few keys (like gaffer, key grip, 2nd AD). We meet together and then go to each and every location. We walk the location. I tell the department heads roughly how I want to block a scene, what directions I want to shoot. I'll ask the Director of Photography and the Production Designer for their input on crafting a scene. The gaffer will look at the location, thinking about power and where he'll place lights. The Key Grip might hear me say "I would like a long dolly shot from here to there" and start figuring out how to make that happen. The 2nd AD might be looking at how many extras we might need to fill out the scene and where he's going to put them. And so on.
Usually a TS might take several days. We tried yesterday to knock it out in one due to the fact almost all the locations are at the UTA campus. But we still didn't quite get done. But close. I remember on my first feature, we did a TS on our day off right before week three, because we weren't able to cover them on the TS before shooting began.
From my point of view as a director, I like the TS because I can better flesh out the scene and how it plays by standing there at the actual location. For this movie, I've actually been doing a fair amount of just walking the campus and visualizing the scenes.
It's Friday before the shooting begins. We've still got a couple minor things to work out as far as a few remaining locations. I've shot listed the first week and will try and do week two and three before Monday. I'll be meeting with the actors as they arrive. It only get's busier from here.

If you do allow your teen to date outside of his immediate age range, consider setting limits on how much time they spend alone and whether they are allowed to be behind closed doors together. On a less creepy subject, anything 16 and under kinda gets weird for me. In all other cases rape is second-degree rape.
Over 16 is a misdemeanor. No conclusion can be drawn from the communication that you have provided. Next thing you know you are marked for the rest of your life. Am I missing out if I don't date at a young age ?

UPF tops Oak Ridge budget news

UPF tops Oak Ridge budget news
The Obama administration has amped up support for a new production facility at the Y-12 nuclear weapons plant, proposing to boost funding in a big way and accelerate construction of the multibillion-dollar project.
In the Fiscal Year 2013 budget request released today, the National Nuclear Security Administration seeks $340 million to jump-start construction of the Uranium Processing Facility. That's more than double this year's funding level on the Oak Ridge project and up significantly from an earlier plan to request $190 million for UPF in FY 2013, which begins Oct. 1....
The UPF currently is in the latter stages of design, with construction scheduled to start by year's end. The project is estimated to cost between $4.2 billion and $6.5 billion.
Ramping up UPF comes as NNSA announced its intent to defer construction of a similarly sized project at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico. Federal officials cited the increasingly deteriorated state of weapons-making facilities at Oak Ridge for making UPF a priority. Parts of Building 9212, Y-12's hub for processing bomb-grade uranium and manufacturing warhead parts, date back to the World War II Manhattan Project.
Tom D'Agostino, under secretary of energy and administrator of the NNSA, and his deputy, Don Cook, cited the tough fiscal climate in the United States and said it was not a good time to push two high-dollar projects at the same time. Detailed reviews concluded that the need for the Uranium Processing Facility was more urgent than the proposed Los Alamos facility -- known as the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement -- for plutonium work
The proposal announced Monday would defer CMRR work at least five years, but D'Agostino emphasized in a teleconference with news reporters that the government is not killing the project....
CMRR vs. UPF
A major topic at today's media teleconference with NNSA officials on the FY 2013 budget request was the decision to defer work on the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement project at Los Alamos while adding emphasis (and money) to the Uranium Processing Center at Y-12.
Don Cook, the National Nuclear Security Administration's deputy administrator for defense programs, said, "I'd say the choice we made was a hard fiscal choice." In effect, it put the work on uranium ahead of the work on plutonium, but it was forced by the situation at Y-12, he said.
"We don't have any option not to get out of 9212 (the main production facility at Y-12)," Cook said. "That building is used up, and that's where we make components for nuclear weapons."
While there were important reasons for building CMRR, the actual plutonium pits were being made in another facility, he noted.
The impression left from the conference today is that NNSA may relook the whole Los Alamos situation and possibly come up with a combo facility or something in that future realm to do the fabrication work with plutonium and the research with materials, etc.
What's notably interesting is that a review just a couple of year ago concluded that if the government were forced to make a choice on which should come first, CMRR or UPF, the conclusion was that CMRR was the higher priority.
Is the big change in decisionmaking simply a recognition that 9212 is in sad, sad shape? If so, then Y-12 folks have done a terrific job in repeatedly sharing that news with every visitors to the Oak Ridge plant and making it known in every way available.

There have been at least 30 independent news reports throughout the United Stated on this decision. LANS has not yet acknowledged the decision, let alone reported this decision to LANS employees. Employees are all still in the dark and literally in suspense as to the implications. Another example of how poorly LANS communicates information to it's employees.

It's was interesting to listen to all of New Mexico's Republican Senators and Congressman pointing fingers at Obama yesterday and the Democrats blaming the Republicans on this decision. They all behaved like they were blindsided beyond recognition. This decision is turning into a massive embarrassment with everyone "seeking cover". It was American politics at is finest! LANS remains mum and dumb on the decision, however, it's becoming clear that LANS "threw in the towel" by giving NNSA substantial data that CMRR was not required. The question remains, why, it can't be possibly be due to a lack of or inept leadership at LANS?
- February 15, 2012 at 12:30 AM
Did I hear Obama kicked the CMRR "can" 5-years down the road? Humm, let's see, if Obama get's re-elected it'll will be just in time for the next President in 2017 to kick-it another 5-years down the road and so on....

@February 15, 2012 12:03 AM,
Not true. CMRR managers met with their employees at 8:30 am Tuesday. In the afternoon, Charlie McMillan sent an all-employee memo.
Check your email. Or maybe you'd already left work by 3:30?

Thanks for that tidbit from the LANS communications office.

How is that relevant to correcting the record? Plenty of real issues to debate here without wasting time on falsehoods.

New Mexico has TWO DEMOCRATIC Senators, Jeff Bingamin and Tom Udall.
The president is a DEMOCRAT yet these two yahoos from New Mexico seem to have absolutely no pull with the president. They seem completely clueless about what was going to occur with CMRR.
Remember this fiasco when the 2012 election comes around, Northern New Mexicans.

Don't forget about Representative Ben Ray Lujan. His announcement following the CMRR debacle was something like, "I will continue the fight for LANL and National Defense". Hello Ben Ray, the pooch got screwed already. As to how this guy got voted into office is a greater mystery than life itself.
- February 17, 2012 at 2:59 PM
It will be interesting to see if the loyal Democrats of the Espanola Valley are willing to support their party and president after he's laid many of them off with this sudden decision on CMRR.
- February 18, 2012 at 9:26 AM
Perhaps Ben Ray will have opposition soon? Maybe Wallace will run for office?

Wrong. Wallace is more of a threat to Knapp since Knapp can't begin to compete with even Wallace's meager academic credentials. Mcmillan won that contest handily.

One would think that Lab Directors are selected somewhat based on their own merits and not by taking out their competition. Wallace has moved upward since he came to LANL by attacking others. Hey, if it works, stick with it.

Get back on track!
It has been a long time since I wrote in this blog, so I thought I should start again. This has been a trait I need to change. These are tools to use to lose weight and again I'm not using my tools. I also wanted to start taking pics of myself every 10 lbs I lose, again another tool I will use. I made a page in this blog dedicated to this, tab at top of blog page.
I want to get back on track, I feel off the wagon for a minute gained weight the past 2 weeks, time to get control and get back in charge! In order to keep to my goal, I need to get with it. I'm losing time and I cant get that back. I don't want to have a few months pass and realize I'm in the same place. I want to progress!
So for now on I will blog weekly and keep track of my progress through pictures. I will use the tools that are out there and really use them. Not just admire everyone Else's progress and grand after photos.
My challenge for this next week is to not eat after 8pm.

Just when we thought the NBA offseason was finally ready to simmer down, Kyrie Irving came out of nowhere and demanded a trade from the Cavs. This isn't one of those half-serious trade demands either, where the team humors the player but never really intends to pull the trigger. By all accounts, the Cavs appear ready to move on from the 25-year-old wunderkind who we recently ranked as the best ball-handler in NBA history. They even discussed their post-Kyrie plans with new free agent signing Derrick Rose. At this point it would be a shock if he isn't moved by the All-Star break and a surprise if he's on the roster come opening day.
There is a lot to unpack here and a lot of questions to answer, so let's get started…
What Is Kyrie's Motivation?
This is the biggest single question I have about this entire story. Was it simply that he saw the writing on the wall – LeBron probably leaving, no GM in place, Dan Gilbert cutting back on payroll, no young assets outside of Kyrie himself – and decided to get out while the going was still good, before he was left holding the bag for a franchise in disarray?
Or – as most reporting about this story has indicated – was it simply a case of Kyrie being sick of playing in LeBron's shadow on and off the court?
Logic would tell us that it's actually a combination of the two, but it sounds like Kyrie wanted out of Cleveland even before LeBron got there. Winning a title and making three straight Finals with the best player in the league was enough to keep him satisfied for a little while, but as soon as the first cracks in the Cavs' foundation revealed themselves, he immediately asked for a trade.
Whatever the truth, it does seem a little weird that he didn't wait until next summer. Even if he is as sick of LeBron as has been reported, would one more year playing together really be that bad, especially when the Cavs remain a Kevin Durant twisted ankle away from winning another title? Perhaps this guy is who to blame?
In the end, I'm guessing that he didn't want to spend his prime being overshadowed by LeBron, and he didn't want to be stuck holding together the pieces of an aging team built around LeBron when the latter jets to LA next summer. Therefore he decided to pull the trigger now. Kyrie is a super-smart, super-thoughtful young man with lots of ambition and a very, very high opinion of his own skill set.
Injuries marred his time at Duke and early NBA years, and then LeBron came along and sucked up all the oxygen in the city. My guess is that he sees himself as LeBron's equal more than his sidekick, and there are people in his ear reminding him that he will never have the spotlight that someone of his talent deserves while playing with LeBron. I bet something like James Harden in Houston would be his ideal scenario: a good, competitive team that is always looking to improve, but there is zero doubt who's the face of the franchise.
Where Does Winning Rank Among Kyrie's Priorities?
Is it possible that the reason Kyrie didn't want to wait a year was because he knew that if they DID win the title, it would increase the chances that LeBron would re-sign, therefore putting a tremendous amount of pressure on Kyrie to return for a chance at three rings in five seasons? If he really wanted out – because of an intense desire to be the face of his own franchise – this may have been a way to do it.
Clearly, winning isn't Kyrie's number one priority. If it was, he would stay with LeBron James. LeBron isn't only a guaranteed trip to the Finals – he's the perfect complement to Kyrie on the court, taking care of the majority of ball-handling and playmaking so Kyrie can do what he does better than almost everyone who's played the game: scoring. More specifically, scoring in bunches while remaining efficient.
Winning does seem to be a priority, just not the priority. His list of desired teams included San Antonio and Minnesota, two places where he wouldn't be the best player on the team, but he would be the biggest star. Basically, all things being equal he would like to win, but being "the man" is more important. Hence the inclusion of the hometown Knicks on his list.
Speaking of the Knicks…
Where Will Kyrie End Up?
The great Zach Lowe mentioned that the only thing that could salvage this situation may be a meeting of the minds between LeBron and Kyrie, à la the LeBron-Love Beverly Hills poolside summit two summers ago. It makes sense, but it also seems that Kyrie is sick of playing for a franchise where personnel decisions are made based on the results of LeBron's cabana meetings. If they couldn't iron out their differences over the course of three years together, one conversation may not be enough to do the trick.
As of now, the two most likely destinations seem to be Phoenix and Minnesota. Phoenix could build a package around Eric Bledsoe, Marquese Chriss, and a future pick (they say they won't include Josh Jackson in any deal, which is absurd in its own right). Kyrie would have the spotlight and as many shots as his heart desired, and he would team up with Devin Booker to create a devastating offensive partnership (as well as a horrifying defensive one).
Minnesota could offer Andrew Wiggins and whatever else straight up, or wait until the season started and offer Wiggins and Jeff Teague (who can't be traded until December) for, say, Kyrie and Iman Shumpert. That would be ideal on their end, but very awkward for Cleveland, Kyrie, and LeBron. If the team is moving on, it would make sense sooner than later for a variety of reasons. The Knicks could also get involved, but it might take a third team to make the particulars work. Either way it would result in Kyrie at MSG and Carmelo playing next to LeBron.
One dark horse that seems appealing are the Nuggets. They could basically offer anyone not named Jokic. The question is whether or not that would be enough to entice the Cavs. A Jokic-Kyrie partnership would be really appealing because Kyrie wouldn't have to distribute the ball much (which I'm not convinced he's interested in doing anyway) and could focus on scoring.
One thing is for sure: wherever Kyrie ends up, he will always be fun to watch.

Where did all the money go? Hmm..here's a clue
Saturday, 24 March 2007
The Fujitsu manager who recently told a conference that the NHS I.T. programme "isn't working" and "isn't going to work", found himself up before the Public Accounts Committee last wek. Suspended from his job as soon as his words hit the pages of Computer Weekly, Andrew Rollerson confirmed that although he remained an enthusiast for NHS I.T., all his comments, including that the whole thing might end up "a camel, and not the racehorse that we might try to produce", had been accurately reported.
Rollerson went further and declared that "the appropriate mechanism for consultation in order to achieve the objective has not yet been found." In other words, four years into the programme, the people running it still don't know what's required by the NHS trusts having to use the wretched systems. (Private Eye)

"I love the pinching - did that really happen?"
ug2b is referring to my comment about administering a hip pinch now and again to keep an opponent mentally and physically off-balance.
Did it happen?
Oh yeah.
Here's a little tip to all you Rec League ballplayers (although I'll deny I said it) --- referees rarely see fouls that happen below the waistline! A sociable clamping of the thumb and pointer finger onto a guy's hip will, at the very least, annoy him and take his mind off the game. Add a little extra pressure by using your body weight to press downwards and he might jump sideways but he won't be jumping too high vertically! This is a nice little way to get to know your opponent when you are guarding a low post player who works with his back to the basket. It's also an effective way to make friends with a guy who's gained position on you for a rebound!

For the record, dining at Hell's Kitchen is a rather more enjoyable experience than watching it, even though the croutons in the caesar salad were as hard as pebbles, the mustard for the beef wellington never came and the raspberry souffle was tasteless.
That said, those sitting at home get the better visual experience. On the night The Telegraph visited the restaurant - part of a converted former brewery on Brick Lane in east London - it was impossible to see, let alone hear, any of the friction among the D-list celebrities that make up its kitchen staff. Instead it was a question of making do with watching another batch of D-listers - Peter Stringfellow, Toyah Wilcox, Carole Decker from T'Pau were the names that actually rang bells - tucking in at the other tables.
It has not been a great week for champions of "reality" television, of which ITV's Hell's Kitchen is the latest example. Three days ago, Bob Geldof predicted that such programmes would soon be shunted aside by quality documentaries. "People want to see reality on TV, rather than yet more reality TV," he said.
Geldof, it must be said, has recently spent millions buying a number of independent high-end documentary production companies. But his prediction looked rather more credible when Hell's Kitchen was panned by critics and lost three million viewers by its second night. The programme has started to recover slightly but is still significantly down on the eight million who tuned in to the first instalment on Monday.
The situation is particularly serious for ITV because it has cleared two weeks of its peak-time schedule to accommodate the new show. If Hell's Kitchen sinks into the flames, it will have a knock-on effect on the rest of the evening. Meanwhile, last night also saw the launch of the fifth series of Big Brother, the Channel 4 reality show that started the whole reality craze.
Big Brother has much to prove this year. Viewing figures for the last series were 20 per cent down on those for 2002 (but higher than the first two series). Bad casting was blamed - the contestants turned out to be rather too boring even for fans of a show that to non-aficionados seems like watching paint dry.
Despite the producers' insistence that the preoccupation with sex is the tabloids' doing, the combination of changes to the set - men and women will sleep in one room for the first time - and Channel 4's pronouncements that Big Brother is getting "evil" suggests a sense of desperation.
Is the end of reality television in sight? Many - usually with more than a smidgeon of wishful thinking - have predicted this and been proved wrong. Geldof aside, there are few people in broadcasting ready to say it now.
David Liddiment, ITV's former director of channels, said it was "too early to write off reality television" but predicted that unless "something really surprising happens" on Big Brother 5, Channel 4 will be "thinking hard" about any more series.
While Hell's Kitchen's performance has not been "disastrous", he is aware what a headache it may be causing for his ITV successors. "By their nature, these sort of reality shows dominate a schedule, so when they don't work they cause problems for a channel," Mr Liddiment said.
But he added: "As with any other type of programme, some will be hits and others - in the rush to emulate them - won't quite hit the mark."
Television professionals agree that, in reality shows, format and casting are crucial. ITV's other big series, I'm A Celebrity . . . Get Me Out Of Here!, was made by the same team behind Hell's Kitchen but by general agreement was better cast and better thought-out.
Peter Bazalgette, chief executive of Endemol, which makes Big Brother, said reality television was now a "permanent feature" of the broadcasting landscape. The interesting question was how it was changing, he said.
"The proliferation of celebrity-based shows has had an effect, and makes it much more difficult for programmes like Big Brother," he said.
"Day one people know who the celebrities are. Viewers have to invest two weeks to get to know the characters in Big Brother."

OEMs should themselves force to place greater emphasis on developing right solutions rather than focusing on just how to sale vehicles, writes Atul Singh Chandel.
India is becoming a hot destination for foreign commercial vehicle (CV) manufacture and it's a new challenge for Indian OEM how to keep their market share in everyday changing business scenario. The basic concept how to define correct product portfolio and how to keep update and competitive portfolio without any damage of brand image and also keep market share. Triad players have normally shown much lower growth rates than their counterparts in India. The definition of best product in India is best suitable product at competitive price.
All OEMs need to understanding what Indian market looks like today, in which direction it could move and where OEMs are headed. First step should be understanding the application of vehicles here, based on application define segments and visualise how it is changing with time. At the same time, customers in Indian market are becoming increasingly sensitive to the total cost of ownership (TCO), which simply means all the costs of an investment over its entire product lifecycle.
In truck business, this includes the initial investment plus the fuel cost, driver's wages, taxes, repairs and maintenance etc. Another important factor is that trucks are becoming more and more interchangeable and, hence, customisation process appears. When this happens, product differentiation and definition becomes more and more difficult. OEMs should themselves force to place greater emphasis on developing right solutions rather than focusing on just how to sale vehicles.
After technical ground work finally it comes on commercial issues like TCO and street price. Finally we will have a product portfolio which will be best suited for India. With this product portfolio there is always a strong service, spare parts and maintenance and repair packages but customised.
Foreign OEMs should enter India with completely built unit after deciding right product portfolio. If they enter the market with CBU then there will be minor chances of having quality problems, parts availability, suitability, design, vendors and assembly etc.
By following this process, define a frame and give the best package (TCO, Service etc) is the most efficient way for product strategy. On some extent this process can be applied for many other countries where Indian OEM's wants to enter into the market.
By having correct portfolio foreign OEM's can increase market share easily but should decrease price also, both approach should comes together. For Indian OEM introduction of new/updated product and ensure quality standard with price in order to gain market share in low cost or budget segment.

|Newspaper column about the Adventurer
From the Victoria, B.C., Canada Times-Colonist. Reasonably factual synopsis for a newspaper article. Not necessarily flattering, but what do they say "all publicity is good publicity"!
De Soto was Chrysler's unwanted child
• BILL VANCE Auto Reflections firstname.lastname@example.com
The De Soto brand arrived in 1928 from the young Chrysler Corp. that Walter Chrysler had formed out of Maxwell Motor Corp. in 1925. The De Soto was developed to fit between the Chrysler and its new low-priced Plymouth.
Then when Chrysler unexpectedly acquired Dodge Brothers, also in 1928, the De Soto suddenly seemed redundant. Although a place was made at the table by dropping a Dodge model, De Soto always seemed like an extra member of the corporate family.
The De Soto was staid and solid, never flashy or garish, and always lived under the shadow of its older brother Chrysler. It appealed to the conservative banker or high school principal seeking Chrysler quality and luxury with less ostentation, like English gentlemen who bought Bentleys rather than more conspicuous Rolls-Royces.
That image would finally change when De Soto introduced the 1956 Adventurer, the most powerful and flamboyant De Soto ever. Named after the De Soto concept cars of the early 1950s, the Adventurer came out a year after Chrysler's new 1955 "Forward Look" styling gave the corporation a fresh design direction.
Along with new 1955 styling, Chrysler had launched the stunning mid-year Chrysler C-300 image car, named for its 300 horsepower, hemispherical-combustion-chamber "Hemi" V-8. It could be called the first real muscle car, and corporate siblings Plymouth, Dodge and De Soto wanted theirs, too. Thus, for 1956 came the Dodge D-500, Plymouth Fury and De Soto Adventurer.
De Soto had two series, the Firedome and more upscale Fireflite. The two-door hardtop Adventurer was based on the Fireflite and bowed in February 1956. It was a relative of the Fireflite "Pacesetter" convertible that paced the 1956 Indianapolis 500, the only De Soto ever to do so.
With appearance set apart by gold plating on its mesh grille, rear quarter-panel badges and turbine-style wheel covers, it was sometimes referred to as the Golden Adventurer.
The Hemi's displacement was increased from 5.4 to 5.6 litres (330 to 341 cu. in.). Its horsepower was increased from 230 to 320 with higher compression, larger valves with stiffer springs, two four-barrel carburetors and dual exhausts. It also got the corporation's new-for-1956 12-volt electrical system.
Suspension was stiffened and power brakes made standard, although power steering was still optional. And De Soto purchasers could order the corporation's new "Highway Hi-Fi," a small 16 ⁄ -rpm record player carried in a glove box-like compartment in the instrument panel. Never very satisfactory, it was discontinued the following year.
Gear selection for the twospeed Powerflite automatic was by Chrysler's new mechanical push buttons on the instrument panel. De Soto sold 996 of its 1956 Adventurers.
For 1957, De Soto received the huge sweeping fins that were the corporation's mark that year. De Soto's version carried triple stacked taillamps in the fins. A convertible was added.
Mechanical changes for 1957 included Chrysler Corp.'s new longitudinal torsion-bar front suspension. The Adventurer Hemi grew again from 5.6 to 5.7 litres (341 to 345 cu. in.) and power increased from 320 to 345, or one horsepower per cubic inch from a standard engine. Chevrolet was trumpeting its 283 horsepower from 283 cubic inch optional V-8, but De Soto didn't have Chevrolet money to advertise its feat.
The Adventurer had outstanding performance, with contemporary reports recording zero to 100 km/h in about 10 seconds and a top speed over 225 km/h. This, and the addition of the convertible, helped De Soto almost double Adventurer 1957 sales.
By 1958, several factors, including an economic recession, were against De Soto. And popular-priced cars from Ford, Chevrolet and Plymouth were growing and moving up-market. Also, high-line cars such as Chrysler's offered lower-priced versions. Squeezed from both ends, De Soto sales dropped from more than 130,000 '57s to 49,000 '58s, including only 423 Adventurers.
Some 1958 mechanical changes also impacted De Soto's image. Because the Hemi engine was heavy and expensive to manufacture, it was replaced with a cheaper-to-build wedge-head design, although the Adventurers still had the same 345 horsepower. De Soto offered fuel injection in Adventurers, but it proved troublesome and was recalled and replaced by carburetors.
The 1959 Adventurer got standard swivelling bucket seats and some exclusive trim and paint treatment, and the Adventurer engine was available across the De Soto line. Sales rose to 687, but Chrysler Corp. was losing interest in De Soto, and as a harbinger of the future it eliminated De Soto's assembly plant and moved it to a Chrysler facility.
1960 was the last model year for the Adventurer name, which had by that time been diluted by being used on almost all De Soto models.
But it really didn't matter. On Nov. 30, 1960, Chrysler announced that the De Soto brand was being discontinued.

Amy and Brandon, who live in Boston, had the ultimate fairytale wedding at Bella Collina. The couple was only able to come to Florida a couple of times before the wedding, so luckily they had the fantastic team planners at Blush by Brandee Gaar to help create the wedding of their dreams. Amy was inspired by classic love stories like Beauty and the Beast, and you can definitely tell in the floral and decor! The photographers from Concept Photography did a beautiful job taking these wedding moments and making them into artistic memories.
Amy's bouquet was romantic: all roses in muted shades of cream, mauve, and pale blush pink. Near the wrapped stems, we used dusty miller and seeded eucalyptus for understated greenery. Her bridesmaids carried similar bouquets that also included bright pink roses, which are seen throughout the ceremony and reception decor.
The arbor for their ceremony was absolutely breathtaking! Clusters of pink and cream roses with trailing greenery were strewn about the iron arbor, creating an illusion of a private menagerie-like space for the couple to say their vows. We lined the aisles with pale pink roses affixed to chairs, and also created a rose-covered surround for the romantic chandelier that hung from the arbor.
The reception took place outdoors. The Tuscan elegance of the venue was highlighted by rustic farm tables and French country chairs from A Chair Affair. We enhanced the Old-World, European undertones with antique-looking vessels and candelabras overflowing with pink and white roses.
Congratulations, again, Amy and Brandon! We were so happy to be a part of your beautiful wedding.
Thank you to these amazing wedding professionals for providing their talents:

Do you attempt to grill your beef and expect to get perfect results? Were you successful within your previous attempts? Do not worry. Once you get a practice it, it will be always easy and you should not be finding it difficult anymore. You can try getting some tips from experts regarding grilling Angus and steak beef. This is very good for your wellbeing. Preparing these items requires lots of patience by you so you need to have face to face experience to offer the best of beef.
It is the most favored sort of steaks besides chicken and fish meat. The beef meats may be grilled, roasted, broiled or even in pan-frying. Those meats take little time in order to cook. They are prepared with rice, potato, noodles, bread or pasta in the dish. Those meats can be prepared with carrot, stringbean, green bean, lettuce, pepper, onion or broccoli.
It is important to decide the sort of beef you need. If you prefer steak or angus, make certain to select a thick and well marbled slab of meat. These foodstuffs will require preliminary preparation for example trimming and boning. So what would be the steps involved in grilling your beef? It is important to pre-heat the grill towards the accurate level. You can choose either charcoal or the grill based upon your comfort level. Remember that briquettes are required for charcoal grills to formulate the flame.
The cattle spend most of their lives roaming free on beautiful rolling pastures, eating high-quality, pesticide-free grass. Cattle which might be humanely treated, unstressed and healthy (and clear of added hormones or antibiotics) create a higher standard of beef. Not only is this beef delicious, but additionally healthier, with less fats plus more beneficial Omega-3s and CLAs.2.
You can flavorize the beef dishes by having greens and healthy spices including lentils, herbs, legumes, etc. Fresh herbs are utilized since time immemorial to create out the flavors of the food and they also pup the health quotient of one's food too. Mostly greens like spinach, garlic, peas, carrot, and onion are widely-used in various beef recipes. You can boost the richness quotient in the beef with the addition of dairy products like cheese, milk and sour cream. If you participate in the league of calorie conscious eaters then you can certainly make some changes here and there like subtracting salt, and adding herb seasoning including bay leaves, garlic, thyme and sage.

The Tribe
The Tribe is a program for children aged 6 – 14 years, implementing creative education through social and environmental lenses.
We are concerned that research shows:
- childrens' creative abilities substantially reduce during their school years
- a social, economic and environmental demand for creativity, and
- increasing current and emerging social and ecological issues for which solutions are not yet found.
SoCE aims to ensure children have the best possible chance to:
- grow into adults adept to working together
- be part of the solution to social and ecological and social issues, and
- are able to co-create their chosen culture, long after we are gone.
We do this by providing education through:
- the creative process rather than the academic
- the democratic process rather than the authoritarian
- the natural world rather than the manufactured.
Many children seek and greatly benefit from collaborative learning opportunities, especially ones that inspire their questions and that are grounded in projects. With the changing landscape of jobs and careers, children will be entering work forces and building businesses that are predicted to only thrive where a collaborative, co-creative approach is integrated into the culture of their organisation, along with sustainable, ecological solutions, and creative approaches to product and service design, delivery and sales. Learning how to master collaboration and co-creativity takes time and practice, and giving them these opportunities from a young age is becoming increasingly essential.
We aim for the children to be (in no particular order):
- generating and pursuing ideas
- incorporating others into their ideas
- building listening and democratic skills
- adding value to their environment and to each other
- designing projects
- documenting their processes
- developing their creative capabilities
- broadening their range of technical skills
- utilising printed language and imagery,
- partnering with community organisations, artists, and businesses, and
- performing or presenting their work to their project's beneficiaries.
Enrolments are open for term 3 and term 4!
If you would like to book for the whole semester, follow the form. Fees are paid while enrolling.
Please click below to make your booking for The Tribe.
At the start of each session, the children host their democratic meeting where they:
- share project ideas
- collectively evaluate the progression of their project(s) and vote upon the next steps
- identify problems, share solutions and vote upon these
- share ideas for the session
- learn about the session's experiences being offered, and
- nominate which activities individuals will participate it.
The rest of the session focuses upon the practical experiences in which they collaborate and fulfil their ideas and projects.
The members of The Tribe are asked to complete three projects per term:
- a Zen Project, in which children pursue an activity that helps them to 'zen-out', such as a craft or sport
- a Gift Project, in which childre take a gift or a talent to the next level, and
- a Knowledge Project, in which children work hands-on in their project while consciously withdrawing new knowledge and skills from their inquiry.
The Tribe are explicitly taught the theory of inquiry-based learning as well as creative theory, to enable a more conscious understanding of their project development.
The Tribe have full access to the whole property including the dam (child-fenced), paddocks, conservation area, playground, orchard, the sports court, and our newly emerging maker-space.
Each session's activities may include:
- project development including the arts and ecology
- equine therapy
- conservation work
- art, craft or sporting activities
- a communal meal, and
- free-ranging.
At the last meeting of the session, problems are raised through reflection and plans are made for the next session. We are working towards concluding the gathering with a child, parent or staff member offering a prepared two-minute talk on a topic important to them.
Session dates and times
In 2018, we are hosting one Tribe…
- Wednesday afternoon 12pm – 3pm, beginning with communal lunch
and may open a Sunday afternoon Tribe. If you are interested, please call us on 1300 11 66 54.
Term Dates:
Term 1: Monday 5th February – Thur 29th March (8 weeks)
Term 2: Monday 16th April – Friday 22nd June (10 weeks)
Term 3: Monday 16th July – Friday 21st September (10 weeks)
Term 4: Monday 8th October – Friday 14th December (10 weeks)
Indoor spaces
The Tribe's indoor spaces include:
- maker-space
- lounge meeting area
- dining and working table
- kitchen, and an
- art area
Participant numbers
The Tribe is designed for up to twenty-five children whose ages range from 6 to 14 years. At least one parent will be present per family.
The Tribe is a parent-stay program. Parents stay to add value to the creative process by offering resources such as ideas, community connections, literacy or numeracy help, etc.
Parents join the children for activities and afternoon, however they don't participate in The Tribe's democratic meetings, unless invited.
Fees per session
The fees for 2018 are:
Wednesday 12pm – 3pm:
- $22 for eldest child in the family, $17 for second, and $12 for third and fourth children.
Where a whole family will be away for three or more consecutive sessions, families will be offered a refund on the fees paid for the period of absence. During that time, we will invite another family to participate. However, refunds are not offered for irregularly missed sessions or for sessions we have decided to cancel due to bush fire risk.
Where we are
Our campus is at 6 Rainy Hill Road, Cockatoo. We occupy the new building.
What to bring
We spend most of our time outside, so…
- gumboots all year round
- a complete change of clothes for children and adults
- sun hats during terms 1 and 4, and beanies during terms 2 and 3
- warm, wind and waterproof jackets and pants (where possible) during terms 2 and 3
- ingredients for lunch which the home-schooled groups decide upon the previous session, and
- medications if needed.
We encourage families to keep their mobile phones on them at all times.
All bags can be stored in a pigeon hole at the front door.

Video: Civil Asset Forfeiture Hearing At AZ State Capital
By Elisha Dorfsmith
Today I had the opportunity to talk with LD6 Arizona State Representative Bob Thorpe about yesterday's hearing in the Arizona House Government and Higher Education Committee on Civil Asset Forfeiture reform. I have endorsed his reform bill in previous posts on my blog and have been anxious for it to start moving forward.
Unfortunately, I learned today that committee chairs are still refusing to allow this bill to advance. This is largely due to push back by prosecutors and police groups who profit from confiscating property and cash from people who are not convicted or even charged with a crime.
Below is the entire video of yesterday's hearing. It is very eye opening and worth listening to. After watching it, one thing is very clear to me, we need an even bigger push for these reforms next session. We need to get this bill passed and signed by the governor.

Cabbage, my old nemesis. We meet again.
My grandma made this a lot when I was young, only she made individual little cabbage and meat pockets. I am lazy, therefore I make casseroles.
For the filling, you will need:
1lb ground sausage
1 medium head of cabbage
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 tsp salt
pepper and red pepper flake to taste
For the bread part:
There are two options here: the easy option and the not so easy option. You can buy two rolls of crescent dough and use it, or you can make your own by using this recipe. I used this recipe with white whole wheat flour and it turned out AWESOME.
First, make your crescent roll dough according to the recipe and let rise. While the dough is doing its thing, saute onion and sausage until sausage is cooked through. Add chopped cabbage and spices, turn heat to med-low and cover. Check on your pot and stir every 5 minutes or so for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat, cover and let steam until your dough has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. When dough has doubled, divide into two parts and roll out on a lightly floured surface. Place the first rolled out dough on the bottom of your pan (no need to grease, your dough has shortening in it). Uncover your cabbage mixture and scoop with slotted spoon on top of dough. Spread evenly. Roll out second piece of dough and plop it on top, like this:
Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Bake for 20-30 minutes, until dough is nice and lovely brown. Cut, serve with a little cheese and mustard. I dont have any pictures of what it looked like coming out of the oven, because J and I devoured half the pan while it was still piping hot. Yum :)

Especially self-righteous yuppies in Petaluma.
After finally reaching the front of an agonizingly long, out-the-door line to order some allegedly amazing brunch fare, my sister agreed to place my order for me while I scoped out a table, since by that point it was not belligerently early to do so.
Just before this, we watched an elderly couple enjoying their newspapers and coffee interrupted by this 52-ish woman with terrible gray-distracting blonde highlights holding her croissant and coffee. She was asking this couple if she and her husband could share their table, since they couldn't seem to find one of their own. The elders kind of looked at them, blinked, got huffy and uncomfortable as they moved their newspapers aside, and the 52-ish woman with terrible gray-distracting blonde highlights finally realizes what an ass she was to have asked and says "oh no, it's okay, we'll wait another few minutes; those people outside look like they're about to leave."
The elderly couple were still pretty much in shock, but after some sidelong glances and sighs, returned to their newspapers and coffee.
I almost order when I see a couple behind this elderly couple packing up to leave. Becca grabs my money and pushes me toward the table like a relay runner tags a relief. I sit down, start clearing the table, and 52-ish Woman with Terrible Gray-Distracting Blonde Highlights approaches. "Have you already ordered?" she asked me, tersely, as if everything wrong in the world had to do with her suspicion of a negative response.
"Uh, we've just ordered and my sister's paying." Which was kind of a fib, because she was in the middle of ordering, but whatever.
"Well, we've been waiting a long time. Would you mind?"
"Mind what?"
"Moving; you haven't been here long, and you'll be waiting for your food awhile like we have, and we'd really like a table when our food arrives. Plus my husband's knees really aren't great for standing, and my feet hurt."
"Well, um, I don't see a sign indicating we're supposed to wait until we order to sit, and my sister and I waited to sit until we reached the front of the line anyway so that people who had already ordered could find tables; I saw several tables open up in the half hour we've been in line. Why did you wait until now?"
"Well, we deserve it more, so if you'd kindly move, that'd be great."
I caved, thinking at the very least I would win Karma points. My sister looked at me, appalled, that the woman we had just witnessed disturb at least one other table had also entirely usurped a claimed table. Our table.
After another 20 minutes of waiting around for a table to open up, I considered asking 52-ish Woman with Terrible Gray-Distracting Blonde Highlights if she would mind sharing our table, but she had so victoriously leaned against the corner and spread her legs across the padded bench (her feet hurt), that the whole bench was contaminated with her indignity.
Finally, a kind father and daughter finished up their omelettes and french toast and offered us their slightly larger, closer-to-the-door/line table, which only made me more annoyed that our quiet bungalow in the back countryside had been so bitterly overtaken by an aging woman with bad hair. I sincerely hope her menopause is godawful.
For extra Karma points, we offered to share our table with a couple who was behind us in line, who quite gratefully accepted and kept to themselves in their corner.
The food was awesome, but not worth $16 and the 52-ish Woman with Terrible Gray-Distracting Blonde Highlights. Perhaps a weekday would be better.
