Bill Iffrig of Lake Stevens was just short of the finish line in the 26-mile Boston Marathon when he heard a horrific noise and found himself on the ground.
He didn't know what happened. It sounded just like what it was — a bomb, he said.
"It was only … feet away from me," he said. "It was really loud."
Iffrig, 78, was running in his third Boston Marathon. He came out of the incident with little more than a scrape on his knee.
"Just the shock from the blast was the only damage," he said from his hotel room.
A now widely-seen video of the race captured the blast and Iffrig, wearing bib number 19200 over an orange tank top, crumpling from the shockwaves. Video and photos showed him lying on the ground surrounded by police and race officials.
Most of the runners were on the other side of the road at the time of the blast, so Iffrig was the only one who went down, he said.
"A lot of them just kept on going," said Iffrig, a retired mason worker.
Iffrig briefly saw a remnant of what he believes was the bomb, a casing that looked like a coffee can, he said.
"Then all this smoke was coming from someplace, and I wasn't able to see too much."
A race official came to check on him and helped him up.
Then, accompanied by the official, Iffrig walked the last 12 feet or so across the finish line.
"I ended up second in my division," he said. "After you've run 26 miles you're not going to stop there." His timing chip marked his finish at 4 hours, 3 minutes, 47 seconds.
Then the commotion really started.
"The officials came flying out there and they stopped the race and they wouldn't let anyone through. And then the place got busier all the time after that."
Afterward, Iffrig walked the half-mile to his hotel room.
"It was a close one though, boy. I'll tell you, that scared me."
Iffrig took up running in the late 1970s to stay in shape for another of his passions — mountain climbing. Although his climbing eventually tapered off, Iffrig continued to run.
In 2009, Iffrig raced at the USA Track and Field cross country national championships in San Francisco. He dominated his 10-kilometer race, winning the masters men 70-74 age division in a time of 44 minutes, 48 seconds. For his efforts, Iffrig was named one of four finalists for The Herald's 2009 Man of the Year in Sports award.
"He's won a number of national championships," said Doug Beyerlein, 62, of Mill Creek, a running partner of Iffrig's. "He's one of the top runners in the country in his age group."
Iffrig said he has logged every mile he's run, practice or competitive — more than 46,000 to date.
"Not many old guys are as fast as me."
Iffrig's family and friends were relieved to find out he was unharmed.
"I was walking across campus (at Central Washington University) and somebody ran up to me and asked if I'd heard about the bombing at the Boston Marathon," said Iffrig's granddaughter, Amanda Kilburn of Ellensburg. "I kind of freaked out and ran home to call my dad. He said my grandpa was OK."
Iffrig's neighbors Patti and Jim Larson, Mike Erickson and Tyler Tarailo said they were shocked to watch television video of Illfrig falling because of the first blast.
"This is just terrible," Erickson said.
Tarailo, a young man who has known Iffrig most of his life, said he is relieved to know that his Lake Stevens neighbor is not seriously injured.
"Bill used to jog all the way down to Kimberly-Clark and back. He's a great guy and always helpful," Tarailo said. "It's good to hear that he is OK."
Patti Larson teared up as she watched her television.
"I don't know what we would do if we didn't see Bill and his wife Donna walking the neighborhood each day," she said.
Herald reporters Aaron Swaney and Gale Fiege and sports editor Kevin Brown contributed to this story.

I'm in much better shape since the [hip and shoulder] replacements. I walk with a little limp, but I have 100% mobility in my arms.
-- Stephanie Brooks-Wiggins, 68
Activist and author, Baltimore
Diagnosed with HIV in 1986
Both HIV and aging put you at risk for accelerated bone weakness. Here's how to keep your bones healthy well into your golden years.
"We're the first generation to age with HIV, so it's a complete adventure!" says Stephanie Brooks-Wiggins, 68, a retired hospital administrator in Baltimore diagnosed with HIV in 1986. She's chosen to turn her personal adventure into activism, speaking publicly, and serving as a member of Older Women Embracing Life (OWEL), a support and advocacy group for women her age with HIV. When she's not busy with that, she's back in school learning to be a tax preparer for H&R Block, visiting her kids and grandkids in various states, or making magic in the kitchen for her husband, Vernon, a retired cop. "I'm a gourmet cook," she says proudly. "I make a roast lamb with a rosemary thyme crust that people die for. And I make ribs that disappear!"
But despite a full life, Brooks-Wiggins has had her HIV-related challenges along the way, including osteonecrosis, or bone death. She's had to have her left hip and both shoulders replaced. "I'm in much better shape since then," she says. "I walk with a little limp, but I have 100% mobility in my arms."
Her case may be especially severe, but osteoporosis, or bone weakening, is indeed something that people with HIV experience more, and sooner, than their aging HIV-negative peers. (Its milder precursor is called osteopenia.) That's believed to be from a mix of the toll that HIV itself takes on bones (once again, inflammation) and of HIV meds, some of which have been found to sometimes harm bones. What's more, bone weakening has no overt symptoms until the point of fracture.
So it's all the more important to prevent and screen for bone loss as we advance beyond age 50. Here's how:
Get scanned. A DEXA scan, that is. A camera will scan you to check your bone mineral density (BMD), a marker of bone health. All men with HIV over 50 and post-menopausal women with HIV should have this test every few years. If your health plan doesn't cover it, keep in mind that it costs about $150. Not cheap, but important enough that you might want to pay for it yourself. The test will score you against the bones of a healthy 30-year-old of your sex. If your "T-score" is below -1.0, you have osteopenia; below -2.5, osteoporosis.
Talk to your doctor about bone-builders. There are several prescription medications that have been found safe for HIV-positive people to take to build stronger bones. In addition, make sure you're getting enough vitamin D and calcium, essential bone nutrients, via your diet (think low-fat milk and cheese, yogurt, broccoli, kale, canned salmon or tuna, and fish oils); supplements (top guidelines for HIV-positive folks recommend 1,000-1,500 mg of calcium and 800-1,000 IU of vitamin D daily); and sunlight.
Talk to your doctor about all your meds. Are any of them linked to bone problems? Some HIV drugs have been known to decrease bone mineral density, so if you already know you have osteopenia or osteoporosis, your doctor might want to monitor your BMD if you're taking certain medications.
Do resistance exercise. Anything demanding that puts some rhythmic impact on your bones is great to build bone density. That includes everything from walking, running, hiking, tennis and basketball to yoga, dancing, weightlifting, weight machines and basic push-ups and squats. Swimming and cycling are great for overall health but not so great for bones, as they don't put impact on them.
|Tips From the Pros
Stephanie Brooks-Wiggins, 68
Since her shoulder and hip replacements, Brooks-Wiggins has done a lot to improve her bone health. Most importantly, she quit smoking. "I got pneumonia, and I said, 'Okay, this is it.' I wore the nicotine patch for a week, plus I see a therapist every other week."
She's also put a new emphasis on diet and exercise; "I eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. I walk my dog, Nairobi, for exercise. And I go to my orthopedic surgeon at least once a year for an MRI to see how my bones are looking."
But despite the time and effort she's had to put into her health, Brooks-Wiggins remembers to pull back and look at the big picture. "Don't let HIV define you!" she insists. "You're only as old as you let yourself feel."

My linksys PKW-WCF12 has a problem, I have no issues connecting to a 802.11b base station, but as soon as I try to connect to a 802.11g station the card refuses to connect (even at .b speeds), other cards in laptops and the like have no problems at all.
Am I using the correct drivers? does anyone else have this problem?? Any quick fixes??
Hi Alex,
You could try changing drivers from orinoco to hostap. I also have a Linksys WCF12 and have noticed my card behaves much better under hostap. See this post for instructions on changing drivers.
Hope this helps.

I would like to use my Belkin-BT-Card F8T020, which works great with cacko-ROM.
With pdaxrom it is't recognized.
It says:
product info: "CF CARD", "GENERIC", "", ""
manfid: 0x0279, 0x950b
function: 2 (serial)
Would be nice to have it with pdaxrom too.

I found that after re flashing from RC8 to RC9 that my Bluetooth card stopped working, I don't remember the exact problem as I am back on RC8 now, also every time I try to put my Zaurus into standby with the Bluetooth card in the PDA just crashes and I end up having to take the battery out to restart it
(Had to edit this as I forgot to mention my Bluetooth card make...)
It is a Armadillo Bluetooth CF Card V1.1. Model no: LSE039/4 R1D Type: LSE039
Thaks all I know about my BT card
That's one problem I'm having...
The other is with the USB data cable, when I set the USB settings so it will let my comp access the SD slot I keep getting my comp telling me that even when I have a card in the SD slot it says "There is no disk in the drive" The Zaurus shows up in My Computer as a new removable drive but it just will not work. It has never worked since the feature was added. Do I need to install some special driver for my Zaurus on to my comp which runs XP Pro SP 2 instead of it using the generic driver that XP installs the second you connect the Z for the first time?
Apart from that I'm really happy with RC8, don't know about RC9 as I used it for only 10 mins before going back to 8, waiting for RC10 now
One more thing that probably isn't related to the OS but... then I install the WiFi scanner from the IPK feed it doesn't give me an icon anywhere to let me use the program and I have no idea where it is installed, I have that prob with a few of the programs that I install.
One last thing... The PPP thing for accessing the internet only lets me dial a phone number, it there not a way I can get my Z to connect to my phone and connect to the internet via GPRS so that I don't have to pay for the duration that I am online, just pay for the amount of data transferred.
Thanks in advance

I hope this is the right thread to post in, but I think this is some nice info on getting support for the only 802.11g network card currently on the market (this is nice so hotspots won't get slower because a 802.11b card connects or on hotspots which are 802.11g (+WPA or WEP) exclusively).
Card name: Linksys WCF54G Wireless Compact Flash
Chipset: likely the Hermes II.5 chip (WL60040) (or possibly Hermes II chip (WL60010)?)
Drivers source: http://www.agere.com/mobility/wireless_lan_drivers.html
(Pick the 7.22 version drivers, does not support older chips anymore but it reportedly supports this chip).
Review of the card: http://www.tomsnetworking.com/Reviews-177-ProdID-WCF54G.php
Possible problems: Driver is kernel 2.4 only, driver reportedly
works on x86, so far only a report of crashes on Xscale (Zaurus Cacko).
Driver download extras: HCF directory contains firmware images to allow the card to operate in either station (STA) or Access Point (AP) mode.
Check also the following threads (I tried to make a summary of the info in this post).

There is a popular wireless CF card which isn't supported by pdaXrom, at least, I thought it was very popular and therefore I bought it.
SMC2642 EZ Connect 2642W
This card is recognized either as "anonymus memory" or as Sandisk connect SDWCFB-000".
#cardctl info
PRODID_1 = " " (yes one space)
PRODID_2 = "SMC2642W 11Mbps Wireless CF Card"
MANFID=d601, 0005
#cardctl ident 0
Product info: " ", "SMC2642W 11Mbps Wireless CF Card", ""
manfid: 0x601, 0x0005
function: 6(network)
Other ROMS support this card according what I read in these forums. Would you add support to this card?. I tried all kind of configurations in the /etc/pcmcia files, but now I'm clueless.

6000 (probably other too for some of this)
USB keyboard map incomplete--no punctuation, that sort of thing
IR Keyboard Belkin f8u1500 Doesn't work
Sharp CF camera
Maybe publish a list of usb Bluetooth dongles? I have one that doesn't work, but it might be easier just to find ones that do.
USB GPS?? I don't have one atm, but I haven't seen reports of their use (could be me).
USB cameras via V4L support in the kernel?
On the 6k
Power button doesn't suspend
ctrl/alt does nothing
"special keys" Mail home menu, etc do nothing
Record button does nothing.
Suspend/resume while wireless is on brings back a "dead" connection (light is on , no data will transfer)
And.. something that doesn't work on any rom that I have seen, but seems wanted: 2gig sd... or at least 2 gig mmc (which I think hasn't been tested)

hi all.... just running pdaxrom after playing around with the sharp rom and openzaurus opie and gpe distros for a while.... i can't believe how sweet pdaXrom is! exactly what i want!
anyway, back on topic... i have the ambicom wl1100c-cf wireless card... it works very sporadically in pdaXrom, although always worked perfectly in the others... what am i missing? it has worked for me a couple times, but even then droped and reconnected quite a bit. Other times, i can't even get it to connect to my network.
I've read a bunch of the discussion on using hostap drivers, but i'm confused... i don't have ANY wireless drivers in lsmod (at least when it's not working), and only a couple even installed in the modules directory, so i'm assuming most are built in. also, my card shows up as eth0 not wlan0.
What am i missing?

There are a few people on these boards that use cheap and nasty Zonet ZCF1100 wireless cards, including me.
I added the following to /etc/pcmcia/hermes.conf to make it work:
card "Zonet ZCF1100"

That card has few other names (atleast manfid says so). In OpenZaurus they are handled by hostap_cs:

It's prism2 based card - use hostap_cs or orinoco_cs for it. It was released by many manufacturers and IIRC it is based on Intersil reference card.

apmsleep does not seem to work correctly on the 6000. It suspends but does not resume. Cant seem to right click (even after reading other threads). Windows still open like they are on a clamshell (have not looked for a fix).
Wireless works like rc10, it *seems* faster to me, even firefox seems to open faster. All in all a fairly large step in stability and speed. If apmsleep worked and I could script up alarms, pdaxrom would be 100% usable for me.
Great Job!!

Back to work for new dad Reggie Bush! After welcoming his first child, a baby girl, with fiancee Lilit Avagyan on Monday, May 6 in L.A., the Detroit Lions running back is already back in Michigan working out with his team.
In a blog post on the Detroit Lions' website posted Wednesday, May 8, Bush, 28, said he left L.A. the day after his daughter's birth to return to his team, but will fly back to L.A. for the weekend to be with his family.
"Leaving yesterday was very tough. I've been looking at baby pictures the whole time since I've been back," he said. "It was tough to leave, but I can't wait to get back — I'm going back tomorrow after workouts."
"Each week I'll be here Monday through Thursday with the team, and I'll fly back Thursday afternoon. I'll be home with my fiancee and the baby until Sunday, then I'll fly back," he explained of his travel plans.
Bush signed with the Detroit Lions in March 2013. Flying back and forth between L.A. and Detroit may be rough, but the new dad says his teammates have been very supportive. "Everybody seems pretty cool," he said. "I wasn't surprised, but I was just pleased with how supportive everyone was of, obviously, me missing time and being back home to have a baby."
The NFL player and Avagyan, a 25-year-old dancer, have been dating for about a year and a half. Bush, who previously dated Kim Kardashian for several years, said in an earlier blog post that the pregnancy "couldn't have come with a better person."

Prince George's County Executive Jack Johnson and his wife, Leslie, were arrested Friday in what FBI officials call a "pay-to-play scheme" allegedly involving favors for real estate developers in the county.
The Prince George's County political powers were taken into custody at about 12:30 p.m. Friday. Johnson and his wife were both charged with tampering with witnesses and evidence and destruction and falsification of records. Both are federal offenses. Each charge carries a maximum of 20 years in jail.
The Johnsons were released from jail Friday evening. Jack Johnson will have to wear an electronic monitoring device. He will be allowed to report to work and also to doctor appointments. Leslie Johnson will not be on home detention, but both must surrender their passports.
Johnson spoke briefly to reporters on Friday evening. "I've served [county residents] long and well," he said. Johnson said he can't go into allegations "because my lawyer would kill me," but he believes that when the facts surface, he will be proven innocent.
The county exec has three weeks to go on his term, and he said he will not be stepping down at this time.
Jack and Leslie Johnson returned separately to their home shortly before 7:45 p.m. Friday. Jack Johnson arrived first, waiting in the car while a driver looked for a key under the mat. He was ultimately able to contact someone inside the house, who partially raised the garage door.
Johnson waved to reporters before ducking under the garage door. Moments later, Leslie Johnson arrived, and also ducked under the door.
The judge in the case said that the Johnsons have to report any transactions they make over $1,000. This was because of the large number of alleged cash transactions described in the affidavit.
According to the affidavit: "Through an investigation initiated in January 2006, FBI agents learned that certain real estate developers based in Prince George's County and their associates were regularly providing things of value to public officials in exchange for official acts that were favorable to these individuals and their companies."
Richard McFeely said more interviews will be conducted over the next few months.
"The message is clear," McFeely said. "If you have information regarding a pay-to-play scheme in this county or this state, it is far better for you to talk to us now than for us to knock on your door."
According to the affidavit, Jack Johnson helped "Developer A," a Prince George's County developer, obtain HOME funds from the county for development projects. In return, Jack Johnson received cash and checks, including a check for $100,000, according to the affidavit.
On Nov. 5, Developer A gave Jack Johnson $5,000 cash in return for the county exec using his "official influence and authority" to help the developer and his company, the affidavit continued, and then on Friday, Developer A provided Jack Johnson $15,000 cash for more help. Authorities said they have audio and video recordings of that meeting.
After the meeting, FBI agents entered the room, asked Jack Johnson about the payments and were told the cash was for a party marking the end of his tenure as county executive and that he had not business dealings with Developer A, according to the affidavit.
The FBI then ordered a search warrant for the couple's home. In the meantime, the FBI intercepted phone calls between the Johnsons, according to the affidavit. When FBI agents arrived at their home, Leslie Johnson called her husband, who told her not to answer the door, according to the affidavit, and to instead go to their bedroom and get the $100,000 check and some cash.
He then told her to put the cash in her underwear and tear up the check, according to the affidavit, and then flush it down a toilet. FBI agents listening to the phone call said they overheard a flushing toilet in the background.
When FBI agents finally entered the home, they said they found nearly $80,000 in her underwear.
Click here to read the entire affidavit.
Unmarked police vehicles were seen at Johnson's home throughout the day with agents going in and out of the house. Jack Johnson also returned to the home during the day. FBI and IRS agents were at the home during the raid. A first-floor window near the front door was broken at some point and was boarded up in the afternoon.
A plumber who showed up at the scene said he was called to the home by FBI agents to make sure that no possible evidence was flushed down a toilet, Wilkins reported. He later left without finding anything. He said he was never told what he was looking for.
Jack Johnson eventually was escorted out of his home in handcuffs, NBC4's Tracee Wilkins reported. Leslie Johnson also was escorted out of the home with a coat over her head.
Jack Johnson, 61, has been the county executive since 2002. He was the county's state's attorney for eight years before becoming the county's chief executive. Leslie Johnson was recently elected to Prince George's County Council from District 6.
Johnson's staff told NBC4's Derrick Ward that if Johnson is unable to serve the county, Deputy Chief Administrative Officer for Health and Human Services Howard Burnett would be next in line.

The Bobcats came out swinging; taking the first set 25-20 and the third set 27-25. After winning the first set the match then went back and forth as UNC Pembroke took the second set 25-21, the fourth 25-18 and final fifth set 16-14 to win the match.
Georgia College's Rachel Reynolds (Marietta, Ga.) led the team with 20 kills and hit .259. Miller Howard (Suwanee, Ga.) contributed 13 kills, and Ashley Savransky (Roswell, Ga.) added 10 setting her season high. For Reynolds, the match marked the second time the freshman eclipsed the 20-kill mark in a match. The first was against the University of Montevallo at home, tallying 26.

The Financial Services Authority (FSA) has decided to fine David Einhorn, owner of the prominent US hedge fund Greenlight Capital Inc (Greenlight), and his fund £7.2 million for engaging in market abuse in relation to an anticipated significant equity fundraising by Punch Taverns Plc (Punch) in June 2009.
On 9 June 2009, Einhorn was a party to a telephone conference in which it was disclosed to him by a corporate broker acting on behalf of Punch Taverns Plc that Punch was at an advanced stage of the process towards a significant equity fundraising. This was inside information and Einhorn should have appreciated this.
A matter of minutes after the telephone conversation had concluded and on the basis of that inside information Einhorn gave instructions to sell all of Greenlight's holding in Punch. At the time these instructions were given Greenlight held 13.3% of Punch's issued equity.
Over the next four days Greenlight sold 11,656,000 Punch shares, thereby reducing its holding in Punch from 13.3% to 8.89%.
On 15 June 2009, Punch announced a fundraising of £375 million. Following the announcement the price of Punch shares fell by 29.9%. Greenlight's trading had thereby avoided losses of approximately £5.8 million for the funds under Greenlight's management.
The FSA accepted that Einhorn's trading was not deliberate because he did not believe that it was inside information. However, this was not a reasonable belief. Investment professionals are expected to handle inside information carefully regardless of whether they have been formally wall-crossed. This was a serious case of market abuse by Einhorn and fell below the standards the FSA expects, particularly due to Einhorn's prominent position as President of Greenlight and given his experience in the market.
Tracey McDermott, acting director of enforcement and financial crime, said:
"Einhorn is an experienced professional with a high profile in the industry. We expect someone in his position to be able to identify inside information when he receives it and to act appropriately. His failure to do so is a serious breach of the expected standards of market conduct."
Yet again the FSA has failed to prosecute a financial insider and seek a custodial sentence. This is now he expected and typical response from this most spineless of regulators, who feel that it is better to seek these pathetic financial penalties, than really go to the trouble of taking these financial spivs to the Old Bailey!
Here was a market professional who learned that shares he owned were about to become impacted by the news that the company was seeking an equity fundraising issue, thus diluting the value of his stockholding.
He immediately gave instructions to sell the entire holding, and in the end, made a saving of £5.8 million for the funds his firm managed.
Whatever you want to call it, this was a gross misuse of privileged information, and Mr Einhorn should have felt the complete weight of the force of the law against insider trading to fall on his head. He should have been prosecuted to within an inch of his well-shod feet, and if convicted, he should have been sentenced to a term of imprisonment. A couple of years at Her Majesty's Pleasure sharing a cell with a steroid-crazed body-builder with an IQ smaller than his hat size would have been a learning curve.
But what happened?
The FSA accepted a plea from him, and accepted that '...his trading was not deliberate because he did not believe that it was inside information...'!
Excuse me, que passa? What did he think it was then, a polite chat with an ever-so-friendly market broker passing the time of day? Who is kidding whom here?
The FSA then fined this uber-rich trader who made millions shorting Lehmann Brothers, the derisory sum of £7.2 million. To a man like Einhorn, this is chump change, he won't even feel the pinch. I'll bet that such a penalty will definitely teach him not to do such a thing again!
What this pathetic exercise ignores is that whether or not the FSA finally decided to prosecute for Insider Dealing, the profits Einhorn made from the deal were the proceeds of crime, whether you call it market abuse or insider dealing, they are still crimes at the time they were committed, and their proceeds can be laundered. As soon as Einhorn realised the proceeds from the sales, he was laundering the money, and any institution handling the deal should have made an immediate SAR if they had suspected the transaction.
Has the FSA investigated to see whether any SAR was reported? Bet not!
This kind of derisory action on the part of the Regulator brings them into disrepute yet again. If they have evidence that individuals have committed crimes, they must and should be prosecuting them, otherwise, what message does this send. Some way must be found to insist that evidence of criminality leads directly to the dock.
London is already the place where the ultra-rich come to lord it in non-dom tax-haven luxury. Where bankers whose publicly-owned businesses have made no profits can pay themselves obscene, million pound bonuses, because no-one has the bottle to get up and say 'No' very loudly and mean it! Where men who through arrogance and incompetence have taken once-great financial names to the brink of extinction, get knighted and given pensions of a size beyond the dreams of avarice! Where 98 of the FTSE top 100 companies can pay no tax to the Revenue. Where we welcome oligarchs who have raped and looted their former State assets, and then come to launder their ill-gotten gains through their ownership of British properties.
What in God's name has happened to us? Where once, we had a name for fair dealing, and integrity, we now have replaced it with greed, sleaze and double-standards. The best thing to do is to put the sign 'Casino' in flashing lights over every immigration desk in every point of entry in Britain. At least then we would be making some pretence at telling the truth of what this country's financial sector offers!

We had a pleasant motor through the pretty Cape Cod Canal, which links Cape Cod Bay with Buzzards Bay.
Monthly Archives: September 2010
Labrador Sunrise
Sunrise along Port Manvers Run on the beautiful coast of Labrador, last month. We are far south of there now, waiting for a cold front to pass Cape Cod.
Clouds Point to Igor
After a careful (very careful!) study of all available weather information, we left Shelburne Harbor as Hurricane Igor was headed for Newfoundland, wanting to take advantage of the favorable winds that Igor would create for us in the Gulf of Maine. The clouds overhead all pointed to where Igor was (several hundred miles away) at the time.
Schooner in Shelburne
Shelburne, Nova Scotia, Canada
We sailed into the pretty and very-well protected harbor of Shelburne for a short visit. This pretty gaff schooner was sailing in the harbor as we entered. I've only been to Shelburne once before, in my old schooner Orbit II. I had singlehanded from Provincetown (Cape Cod) and ran into Shelburne just ahead of a gale. Shelburne has a long harbor, offering excellent protection from storms. I had just gotten the anchor down and the sails all tied and gone below when the gale arrived. I was exhausted from the lack of sleep (it was my first singlehanded sail), and extremely glad to be down below where it was dry as the wind howled and the rain and hail pounded on the cabintop. So I have pleasant memories of Shelburne.
Sailing SW
We have been enjoying sailing southwest. It is quite noticeable that summer is ending as the days are shorter and the nights longer, and as we sail south, the temperatures keep getting warmer. Even the rain (which is frequent) seems warm. While the location shown is where we are, Gabriela took this picture of Issuma sailing in this area a few months ago.
Wind Generators and Petroleum Tanks
Port Hawkesbury, Nova Scotia, Canada
We motored through the Strait of Canso, between Cape Breton Island and Nova Scotia. We anchored to sit out a gale in Port Hawkesbury, pretty much in the middle of the Strait of Canso, where this picture was taken.
Cape St Lawrence
We left the rain behind (on the left of the picture) as we passed the northern tip of Cape Breton Island.
Red Bay Beluga
Red Bay, Labrador, Canada
The wind finally let up in Battle Harbor and we sailed and motored 60 miles to Red Bay, in the Strait of Belle Isle, where we anchored in preparation for a NE gale the following day. The Strait of Belle Isle separates Newfoundland from Labrador. The little beluga in the picture came over to the boat as we were entering Red Bay and stayed with us, swimming around and playing, for hours. The preparations for the gale were straightforward. Red Bay is a very enclosed bay and we set the main anchor (88lb Raya) and a rope to a big rock. I had read that the mud on the bottom in this harbor was thin and didn't hold anchors well. We had no problems with the NE gale, but were somewhat dismayed to see that the forecast for favorable winds following the gale had changed to another gale from the north. We reanchored, in the north part of the harbor, this time using the Raya anchor and the little Guardian (like a 40lb Fortress) anchor, each on about 150m of chain and rope. The Raya would likely have held us by itself, but one doesn't want to find out otherwise in the midst of a howling gale, so better to set two anchors if in any doubt. Both anchors hooked debris on the bottom, making bringing them back up a long process–quite useful for muscle-building (there is an electric anchor winch, but it only works with the chain on the main anchor, so the 80m of rope on the main anchor was lifted by leading the rope aft to a manual winch). Anyway, after two hours spent retrieving the anchors, we were able to leave the harbor and enjoy a brisk night sail down the Strait of Belle Isle. Unfortunately, in the second gale, the wind generator (Air Breeze) died. So far, I have not been able to get it operating again. The wind generator supplied most of the electrical power onboard, so now computer use is much more limited, so there may be fewer blog entries. After the gales, a big high pressure system moved in and we have since had clear, not-very-cold skies and pleasant winds.

Wis. committee approves money for mini-deer hunts
May 21, 2013 at 10:50 PM
The Associated Press
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Legislature's budget committee has approved spending nearly $2 million in federal money to set up private deer hunts.
Researcher James Kroll last year suggested the Department of Natural Resources help landowners run hunts on their property in a joint effort to manage local herds.
Gov. Scott Walker's budget calls for devoting $1.9 million in Pittman-Robertson grants over the next two years to get the program off the ground. The grants are funded through federal taxes on firearms.
Minority Democrats on the Joint Finance Committee Wednesday moved to delete the provision from the budget and allow the DNR secretary to decide how to allocate the grants to the program but the attempt failed on a 4-12 party line vote. The panel then accepted the governor's position with no debate.

Topic : Cyber security action plan template.
Author : Wyman Duncan.
Published : Sun, Oct 06th 2019 17:42 PM.
Format : jpg/jpeg.
If you have never made a business plan it may seem impossible. Fortunately a template will walk you through the process. While you can make adjustments as necessary, the sooner you start using your plan template, the more you will get to know how it works. As you adjust your ideas they will be reflected in the plan. When your plan is complete you can use it to present your case to possible investors. If you can, get an experienced friend or business acquaintance to look it over first.
To make a business plan template usually begins with the name and the details of the owners of the plan. This is followed by a table of contents that constitutes an executive summary, a general description of the company, the products and services the company offers, the marketing plan, the operational plan, and the management and organizational structures. These elements complete the narrative part of the business template. The financial part of the template should contain a financial statement, startup expenses and capitalization details, and a complete financial plan that encompasses the goals of the company.
He should decide on his preferred color schemes. Then, he has to make sure that his business plan would perfectly fit into his desired template. Next, he should check for available titles designs and fonts. He should measure his diagrams, graphs, and photos to see if they would also fit into the template. Also, he has to determine if the template would fit into his public profile. He should choose the template that lets him map out the pertinent information in just a short time, as well. And finally, he should test the template if it could be adjusted into any formatting such as type and size.

For Immediate Release: September 30, 2010 En Español
Contact: Dan Beeton, 202-239-1460
Washington, D.C. - There are currently reports of a possible attempted coup d'etat underway in Ecuador. There have been violent protests by police and some elements of the military, reports that President Correa has been injured, and reports that the air force has closed down a number of airports.
The Organization of American States will convene an emergency meeting at 2:30 Eastern Standard Time in Washington D.C., to consider the situation.
Mark Weisbrot, Co-Director of the Center For Economic and Policy Research, called upon President Obama to state unequivocally that the United States will not recognize any government other than the democratically elected government of President Rafael Correa.
Weisbrot noted that the White House statement of June 28, 2009, in response to the military coup in Honduras, did not make any such assertion, and in fact did not even condemn the coup.
"These types of statements are very important, in that the people who are trying to overthrow a democratic government are looking for signs of whether a coup government will be recognized by the United States. The first White House statement last year in response to the Honduran military coup sent the wrong signal at a crucial moment."
At the Summit of the Americas in Trinidad in April 2009, President Obama stated: "I just want to make absolutely clear that I am absolutely opposed and condemn any efforts at violent overthrows of democratically elected governments, wherever it happens in the hemisphere.
"This is an important time for President Obama to live up to this commitment," said Weisbrot.

Quilted China Storage Cases
Rated 5 out of 5 by Alkan from Great Product This case is beautifully made and has nice wide spaces for anything but balloon-type stemware. It has great cushioning on all sides and is high enough to handle really tall glasses. It's certainly not the cheapest product out there, but it is probably the best.Date published: 2015-01-24Rated 5 out of 5 by ShoppingQueen from Quality Storage Cases I recently purchased storage cases for all my china and crystal. These cases are nicely made and quality products. I like that the cases are heavy duty and quilted. Yes, the cases are expensive, but I keep buying more to protect treasured family china and crystal. I bought the red cases for my Christmas dishes and gray cases for my other china. It's pretty exciting to finally have things organized!Date published: 2014-12-28Rated 5 out of 5 by KAM44 from Sturdy And Practical. I bought a total of four in these cases. All of my wine ,water, and champagne glasses are now safely stored in these sturdy cases. I have no issues with them. They serve the purpose and I'm about to buy the grey ones to store my china. Overall a good buy.Date published: 2014-12-17Rated 4 out of 5 by violinmom from Nice cases, but pricey The workmanship (stitching, etc.) is not great, and for the money, it should be. That said, the cases are nicer than any other cases I saw either online or in a store.Date published: 2013-02-24Rated 5 out of 5 by HHJJ from Best Stemware Case I have researched stemware cases for a few months and ordered a few just to send them back because they were of poor quality. When I came across this case I was leary because of the price but had heard of rave reviews of it. So once again I delved into my purse and bought one. I am pleasantly surprised at it. It is hard sided all the way around, NOT foldable at all which means it cannot collapse and is very sturdy. The inside dividers are made of cardboard but are covered by quilted material which is added protection for crystal. This inside dimensions are true which are stated. I can even fit 2 old fashioned in one slot with pads in between them. The only con that I can see is that there are no handles on the case which would make it a bit easier to carry it around with a full load. And, yes, I plan on buying more of these not just for stemware but for other items that I want to protect such as vases, candle holders, etc. This case is THAT good.Date published: 2012-03-15Rated 5 out of 5 by gourmetchick from My Crystal is Safe Sturdy, well-made storage case. Handy extra - label window on exterior to identify which size stemware is inside... no more opening each case to take a peek! Only one minor complaint - the individual spaces provided by the dividers is a tight fit for some larger, rounded goblets. Still, a nice case overall...best I've seen in years.Date published: 2012-02-02

Rohrnudeln (can you say that?)- - Bavarian Hot Cross Buns
Rohrnudeln (can you say that?)- - Bavarian Hot Cross Buns
Share on:
I've been seeing a lot of recipes for "Hot Cross Buns" all over Food Blosphere. I got to thinking-- my D.N.A. roots are deeply embedded in Germany-- Bavaria, to be specific. I saw a similarity to the sweet dough for Hot Cross Buns (an English Easter tradition) to a German sweet dough recipe. My mother's first cousin, Ursula, introduced me to her recipe for "Rohr Nudeln" a few years ago. I asked her for the recipe, which she gave to me from memory-- in metric measurements, no less.
Whenever I bake these (and I'm getting better at it, each time), my boys are really happy. They love these, and I confess, so do I! I did my best to convert her measurements, and to apply her instructions--and then I tried to make these my own way. Here's how I made them:
The ingredients are simple-- milk (I used 2%), butter (I used unsalted, this time), eggs, vanilla sugar (I make my own by sticking used vanilla beans in sugar, in a jar), yeast and flour. Oh, and jam of your choice. I had leftover peach jam from making Tyler Florence's Ribs Sauce.
Tip: I soaked my eggs in a bowl of very warm water, to bring them to room temperature.
I decided to use my Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer. I used the dough hook, but later realized, it's best to start with the paddle to mix first (duh). Then, switch to the dough hook...
As you can see, the dough is not super thick, as in traditional bread dough. I mixed the dough for about 3-4 minutes. What's important, to me, is to have the milk and melted butter warm (about 105F) but not screaming hot-- I don't want to kill the yeast. I use Fleishman's Rapid Rise Yeast that I buy in a jar and keep in the fridge. It's never failed me.
While the mixer is going, I turn my oven on to about 200F for a minute or two, then turn it off. I prefer to let my dough rise in the oven, free from drafts.
I just love my dough doubler. I bought it on the King Arthur Flour website. After setting this in my warm and cozy oven, I set the timer for 45 minutes...
Yes!! I love working with yeast! Now, it's time to shape the rolls. Set extra flour right by you, because the dough can be sticky to work with:
Now the real fun begins, because I'm still working on my technique for shaping rolls. Again, this dough is very soft to work with.
I added about 1/4 cup more of this flour to make it workable, gently folding and kneading with floured hands. Then I cut the dough into nine pieces. If you are afraid of butter, then cover your eyes.
I melted 3 Tbsp of melted butter with about 1/4 cup of sugar and whisked it together, on the bottom of my baking dish. Now, it's time to shape the rolls, and set them into this buttery concoction...
I flatten a piece, and put about 1 generous teaspoon of jam in the middle...
What work for me is to pull a corner of the dough, and then fold it over, and repeat this four times. Place these, seam side down, into the baking dish (with the melted butter & sugar).
I am critical of my own work, so I noticed that my pieces weren't all even. That little one on the left? Mine! All mine! I covered the dough, and set my oven to 350F. Once the oven reached 350F, I popped the rolls into the oven for 30 minutes-- and cleaned up and ground my coffee beans.
Hello, my pretties! I added a little more melted butter. Why not? Plus, it makes them photograph much better.
How long do you cool these? About 15 seconds! Believe me, these smell fantastic! The only crosses on these are the ones that I learned in Catholic School-- these are sinfully good. Forgive me. The melted butter and sugar gives a wonderful crust to these. Just enjoy them. There is no way to lighten these up, calorie wise.
Baker's rights-- I get the first taste...
Ursula, I love you! I always have, since I was a baby...but this is wonderful!
Unabashedly, I went in for that small piece...the one I said was mine. Oh, this was my SECOND helping.
This Easter, I am remembering a time when my mother and I strolled through the streets of Bad Reichenhall and Salzburg Austria. The hand decorated Easter Eggs and the bakery and chocolatier displays are simply amazing. Easter has always been an important holiday for our family-- it makes me miss my mother.
My mother (right) and her first cousin, Ursula, on her confirmation day, circa 1946.
Blessed Easter to all of you!

Corey Haim passed away from an apparent drug overdose Wednesday. Herein, a collection of his contributions to '80s-era film along with his partner in forename, Corey Feldman.
The Lost Boys (1987)
In which Santa Carla has all those damn vampires
Basically playing Bella to Kieffer Sutherland's Edward, Haim's the biggest character in the film who isn't a vampire. This was his first turn with Feldman, introducing what would become the actors' familiar dynamic: Haim plays a relatively normal, slightly effete guy, and Feldman's a tweeked-out kid educated by comics and haunted by the occult.
Haim's best line: "I'm at the mercy of your sex glands, bud." Recommended clips: The Michael and David fight scene, Haim and Feldman interviewed about the movie, and, here we go, the entire movie on YouTube. Part one below:
License to Drive (1988)
In which Haim implausibly dates miles above his station
The quintessential Haim/Feldman flick. Feldman's penchant for oversized sunglasses makes him look pre-pubescent, and because Haim's love interest, Mercedes, is played by a stunningly coifed Heather Graham. It's been a rocky romantic road for Graham since her real-life dalliance with Haim (she apparently considered Ed Helms a step up).
"Drive" is notable for this coming-of-age Orwellian pronouncement: "God giveth, and the DMV taketh away. You mustn't f*ck with the Department of Motor Vehicle. We can make your life a living hell." As for clips, this chipmunkian reel of Haim, sped up for comic effect, is a keeper. Below, the original trailer, featuring Billy Ocean's "Get Out of My Dreams":
Dream a Little Dream (1989)
In which Corey Feldman basically plays the Jodi Foster/Jamie Lee Curtis role from "Freaky Friday"
Basically a tepid antecedent to Freaky Friday, Dream a Little Dream sees Haim playing backup for Feldman, who's switched bodies with a mewling suburban hippy (Jason Robards, that spring chicken). The movie's notable for two things: Haim acknowledges his gameshow fetish ("I'm dreaming. Apache women. Mai-taihs. Vanna White and a whip") and Dream a Little Dream 2, which you may remember from its alternate title, Nightmare on C-Lister Street.

Had a lot of questions but...
Posted 19 May 2003 - 08:33 AM
After reading through some of the posts here, I'd say most of you will have a hard time convincing skeptics of much. After all 'we are skeptical' and having introduced ourselves as such feel the full wrath of those who know for certain that WE skeptics are wrong.
Not the best way to sway an opionion.
Probably gone for good.
Posted 19 May 2003 - 08:47 AM
Dont' leave just yet! Give everyone here a chance to get to know you.
Post your questions and I am sure that everyone here will be courteous to you.
A skeptical person is a GREAT addition to this site and community. It keeps everyone on their toes!
So take a bit and give this place a chance!
Posted 19 May 2003 - 03:30 PM
I think people get confused and think you either believe or you dont, that is not the meaning of skeptical, that would be closeminded, skeptics are people who offer another side to the story befor jumping to the first conclusion. I personally am not out to sway anyone into believing anything, heck I have a hard time conviencing myself sometimes
So ask your questions, your openminded enough to have questions, well keep it open a bit longer to hear an oppinion and remember that an oppinion is not necessarily the answer I can assure this, there is not one site out there that will be able to give difinitive answers to your questions, maybe alittle more educationally informative, yes, but not factual when it comes to the paranormal.
Posted 19 May 2003 - 07:39 PM
I used to be skeptical also...things have changed dramatically. Once I had and experience that I could not explain and I was on the road to believing! ;D I can be a very closed minded person at times but all it takes is one event sometimes to open that mind up. I think you have to at least be willing to look and listen in order to make the right decision for you. I'm not going to try and change your mind...it would be a waste of time. I agree with the others...stick around and absorb the information here...You never know you might just be surprised! ;D

Hope you pass through here again to read these posts. I think you can tell that you are welcome here! This a great place to examine the opinions of others, that includes your opinions too Larry, and to decide what (if any) fit into your belief structure. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts, as would others. your always welcome.
Posted 15 June 2003 - 09:13 AM
I really had a lot of questions, but with my skeptical attitude... Well, I guess I just don't have an open mind. And all my beliefs are 'foolish' and just the product of that closed mindedness....
After reading through some of the posts here, I'd say most of you will have a hard time convincing skeptics of much. After all 'we are skeptical' and having introduced ourselves as such feel the full wrath of those who know for certain that WE skeptics are wrong.

Probably gone for good.
If you're unwilling to converse with people who think that skeptics are close-minded naysayers, Larry, there will be little sanctuary for you within the 'Net. It is up to us to show that the commonly held view of the skeptic is a mistaken one.
Posted 26 June 2003 - 09:44 PM
On the hand, an open mind allows for greatly increased perception of your surroundings. Obviously there are things out there that we can't always see or perceive or see at first brush. Prime, but simplistic, example: ultraviolet light because it's beyond our range in the spectrum. Yet, we know it's there and can prove that it's there.

True, people could trick them selves about something they saw. From my experiences I know it's something that couldn't have just been imagined or hallucinated but people need to use common sense on theses sorts of things. I've been on between 20-30 ghost hunts at 2 different locations and have not only seen but felt and heard several different paranormal events. I couldn't have been halucinating for several reasons but 90% of the stuff I experienced was also witnessed and confirmed by others with me unless we just happened to imagine the same exact thing. I had been on these with at least 14 different people and there would usually be around 5 each time but everyone that I went with had recalled the same exact occurances that were usually experienced at the same time to where there was no doubt that they were paranormal.

Revision as of 02:48, 19 October 2005
ARCLoad was built to load any Linux kernel on any SGI/ARCS machine. Therefore, it currently supports:
- SGI Indy
- SGI Origin
- SGI Indigo2 R10000
- SGI Octane
ARCLoad does not support any filesystems. Conversely, it can load the kernels (and also its configuration file) from any place the PROM can access. Therefore, kernels are not loadable from ext2 partitions; they are loadable from xfs/efs partitions on some machines; they are also loadable from the DVH (disk volume header). ARCLoad can also load kernels from a TFTP server, so a network-based install is possible.
Configuration file
The text configuration file is named 'arc.cf' and loaded from the place pointed to by the 'SystemPartition' environment variable. ARCLoad reads the file and executes it in order. The configuration file is structured into options that can be nested. Comments begin with a '#' and are discarded (duh). Options are selected by the 'OSLoadFilename' environment variable.
An option looks like this:
feature1 feature2 { # code for any of the features }
The code inside the braces will be executed only if any of the features listed are found in the current feature set. Think of the option as an alternate syntax of a conditional statement. Therefore,
feature1 { feature2 { # code for both features } }
realizes an AND Boolean operator.
There are several statements allowed both inside the options and outside them. All statements are terminated with a semicolon (';'). They will be executed in-order. The list of valid statements is given below:
Performs hardware autodetection. The current feature set will be replaced with the autodetected one. Detected features include: software architecture (ip22, ip27, ip28, ip30, ip32), SMP-ness (smp, up), console type (serial, video), video resolution for graphics console (video=AAAxBBB) and CPU (r4000, r4600, r4700, r5000, rm5200, rm7000, r10000, r12000).
comment "Something to be displayed...\r\n";
Comments are displayed when the list option is given. They allow writing self-documenting ARCLoad configuration files.
description "Option description";
Descriptions are displayed with the names of respective options when the list option is given.
image "filename"; image system "/filename"; image absolute "filename";
Sets the kernel image to be loaded. If "filename" is empty (""), the option is deemed to be unsupported. The system option directs ARCLoad to prepend the contents of 'SystemPartition' to the filename, while the absolute option exists only for completeness as it is the same as default.
append "arg1" "arg2";
Appends arguments to the kernel command line.
options "arg1" "arg2";
Replaces the kernel command line with the given arguments.
If any kernel image is assigned during the configuration file parsing, ARCLoad will attempt to load the image. Otherwise, it will signal an error and return to the interactive PROM command line.
Downloading and building
ARCLoad can be found at Skylark's site. Building it requires only a single setting in the Makefile: the MODE. If it is set to M64, a 64-bit ARCLoad binary will be built (for ip27, ip28 and ip30). If it is set to M32, a 32-bit ARCLoad binary will be built (for ip22 and ip32). It is possible to place those binaries under the names of 'sash64' and 'sashARCS', respectively; in this case, it will be possible to use the Install New Software option in ARCS PROM to run the appropriate binary on any SGI machine.
As mentioned above, kernels are loaded from the location specified by the SystemPartition environment variable, and options are selected using the OSLoadFilename environment variable.
Suppose you have an arc.cf like the following:
append "root=/dev/sda3"; append "ro"; append "console=ttyS0,9600"; ip28 { working { description "Known Working Kernel"; image system "/working"; } new { description "Freshly Built Kernel"; image system "/new"; } debug { description "Debug Shell"; append "init=/bin/bash"; } }
To boot the "working" option, this would be done in the PROM like so:
setenv OSLoadFilename ip28(working) boot
Or for the "new" option
setenv OSLoadFilename ip28(new)
Multiple options may be selected... e.g.
setenv OSLoadFilename ip28(new,debug)

The Coolest Jobs in Hawaii
What do you daydream about when you're at work? Surfing? Shopping? What if you could do it for a living? This month, we found 11 lucky people who get paid to do what many would do for free.
(page 1 of 6)
Megan Abubo
While most surf enthusiasts have to squeeze in sessions before work or on the weekends, for professional surfer Megan Abubo, clocking in means hitting the beach.
"On a typical day, if I'm at home and the waves are good, I'll wake up, eat a quick bite and go surf for a couple hours. Then come in for lunch. And then I'll go back out again." When the waves are flat, she'll take her standup paddling board out for a spin, or just hit her home gym.
It's a routine she's been doing for awhile; Abubo has been surfing professionally since the age of 16 (she's 31 now), racking up six Association of Surfing Professionals World Championship Tour victories along the way. She's currently sponsored by Roxy, Hawaiian Island Creations, Kicker Audio Systems and Sticky Bumps—in return for competing and acting as an ambassador for the brands, she gets not only a paycheck, but free surfing gear and travel to surf spots all over the world.
"This year, I went to Australia, California a couple times, Portugual, South Africa, Mexico," she says. Up next? Peru. She's slowed her pace lately, but used to spend nine to 10 months out of the year on the competition circuit.
For Abubo, that travel has been the best part of her surfing career. "I love that I grew up on a little island in the middle of the Pacific, but because of surfing, I have very open eyes to the rest of the world. It's something not many people get to do."
John Walsh
John Walsh is surrounded by more than 17,000 gallons of beer at Hawaii Nui Brewing Co., a good portion of which he made himself. As a brewer for the small craft brewery in Hilo—the only Hawaii brewery that both produces and bottles its beer locally—Walsh is responsible for every aspect of the brewing process, from "grain to glass," including tasting the beer every step of the way.
"You need to be aware of your beer at all times, know where it is, what it tastes like and know its styles," says Walsh, who made the switch from managing editor of an Arizona newspaper to brewer four years ago.
But that doesn't mean he hoists cold ones all day. "I spit the beer, I don't swallow it. Maybe at the end of the day I'll try a sample. Sometimes I have tastes at 6 a.m., so if I line up five samples, it could be a recipe for trouble," he says. Instead, he relaxes with a bottle at home or during trips to local beer festivals.
Brewing is a precise science and Walsh is its liquid alchemist. He begins with wort, unfermented beer, and, after several steps, transfers the liquid to the brew kettle and boils it for 60 to 90 minutes. After adding hops, the last step is fermentation of the yeast and the wort. It can take up to 16 days to brew ale, and at least 30 days for lager. "It's great seeing somebody enjoy a beer I've made. If I see somebody at a bar, or grabbing a six pack of beer that I brewed, that's awesome."

Paul Merson's Premier League predictions - Week 27
Merse expects wins for Villa, Southampton, Hull and West Brom
Last Updated: 20/02/14 6:09pm
The fact Tim Sherwood left so many players out of his Europa League squad shows that he knows they have a real chance of getting in the top four. They've been on a roll and are only three points behind Liverpool and six behind Arsenal, so it's opened up for them. Nobody has mentioned them really but I think any of the current top five can still win the title. If any of the top five can put seven wins in a row together then they will win the league - and that includes Spurs. It will be an amazing achievement if they can do that because it really should be between Man City and Chelsea when you look at the squads.
Newcastle v Aston Villa (12.30pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 )
Newcastle need to be careful that their season doesn't fizzle out and their fans don't get dis-heartened. Not long ago they were right up there and a couple of wins could have seen them break into the top six - but then they sold Yohan Cabaye and now they can't win a game for toffee. Newcastle have been battered in their last few games against Sunderland, Chelsea and Tottenham and the pressure is on them. That will play into Aston Villa's hands, who are dangerous away from home and will counter-attack them.
Liverpool v Swansea
I'm predicting Chelsea, Man City and Arsenal to all win on Saturday - so that means Liverpool will have to win this one under pressure. It's hard when you are playing catch up and that will make it a big game on Sunday. However, Liverpool are really good at the moment and they should win comfortably. I can't understand why Swansea rested so many players in the FA Cup... do they really think they are going to knock Napoli and Juventus out of the Europa League? I just don't understand that.
Crystal Palace v Man Utd
This is a hard game for Manchester United. Crystal Palace is a hard place to go and their fans have been outstanding this season. I was lucky enough to play in front of Portsmouth fans, but this lot are up there with them at the moment. If there's ever a chance of them beating Man United at home then this is it. United aren't pulling up any trees and they have a big game in Greece on Tuesday night - plus I'm not sure if Robin van Persie can play twice in four days with all the travelling. You wonder if David Moyes will play his best players and so I think this will be a draw.
Arsenal v Sunderland
Arsenal were bang unlucky against Bayern Munich. They had them on the rack in the first-half and if Mesut Ozil had scored his penalty then it could have been a different game. This is now an important game because the top four is getting very tight. Three weeks ago we were talking about them winning the league, but if they don't win this game they may struggle to get in the top four. A win here will see the title race back on again and I think they will win. Remember, Sunderland are in the Capital One Cup Final next week, something that doesn't come along too often for those players, so I'd be shocked if Wembley wasn't in the back of their minds.
Cardiff v Hull
I really think Cardiff are struggling. They look a bit lost and I always thought this was a big job for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to come from Molde (where he did brilliantly) and come straight into a relegation battle. That's hard for any manager. I like Hull and I think their two forwards are a real handful, so I expect them to win this game.
Man City v Stoke
Man City need to win this game, but I don't think it will be a massive scoreline like we've seen from them a few times at home this season. The games are catching up on them and the loss to Barcelona will have knocked their confidence. I still think they will win the game though; Stoke are doing fine, but I expect City to do enough. It won't be 6-0 or 7-0 but I think they will recover from the disappointment of Tuesday night.
West Brom v Fulham
I don't get what Fulham are doing. Rene Meulensteen was appointed and bought a player for £12million and yet they sacked him before Kostas Mitroglou has even kicked a ball. They have brought in Felix Magath, who has never managed in the Premier League before and that's a risk. Back in the day you could bring in someone like Dave Bassett who had been there, done it before and could get you out of trouble - but Magath isn't going to get time with his players. West Brom have a chance to really pull away from Fulham by winning this game. I worry for them, but if they could pick any game to play this weekend then Fulham at home would be it.
West Ham v Southampton
I don't know what Southampton were doing in the FA Cup last week, I really don't. They are the only team in the country (apart from maybe Newcastle), who aren't going to get into Europe or get relegated, so they could have thrown everything at the FA Cup. So why did they rest players against Sunderland? Is the manager on a bonus for finishing as high as possible up the league? It's beyond me - and I bet the players are wondering what's going on. However, I think they will win this game because they can beat anyone on their day. West Ham are in form and have won some big games lately, but I think they might just take their eye off the ball.
Chelsea v Everton
Chelsea will feel hard-done-by having such a tough game this week. Man City and Arsenal both played in the Champions League in midweek and Jose Mourinho would have thought this was a good weekend to capitalise, but they've both got easier games than this. Chelsea can't afford to make changes ahead of the trip to Galatasaray because the most important thing is still the Premier League in my opinion and they need to play their strongest side. I still think they will win though - and it's important they win because it's the early game. It will be tight though.
Think you know better than Merse? Prove it with our Super 6 game and win £250,000

Plane pasture: From aviation to steeplechase
Early in the 20th century, a horse trying to graze on the property now owned by the Foxfield Racing Association likely would have been buzzed by a newfangled flying machine.
Charlottesville's first airport opened on the site in 1929, two months before the big stock market crash. Dixie Flying Service's first passenger took off for New York on August 21, according to John Hammond Moore in Albemarle: Jefferson's County 1727-1976.
Christened Wood Field in honor of Robert "Buck" Wood, a local aviator who'd died in France in 1918, the airport was the creation of former UVA student Ed Sturhahn and pilot J. Hamilton Brown.
According to Moore, by the end of 1931 Dixie Flying Service had carried 1,052 passengers to locales such as Hot Springs, White Sulphur Springs, Washington, Richmond, and Danville– with only two forced landings.
By 1933, however, the airport and Dixie Flying Service had fallen victim to the Depression.
The property had belonged to the Vandevender family for generations, says Raymond Woolfe, who designed the Foxfield race course. Grover Vandevender, a founder of the Farmington Hunt, ran a "famed" riding school there, Moore writes.
And his friend, Mariann de Tejeda, promised him before he died that she'd build a race track on the property.
De Tejeda, a California native, bought Foxfield and hired Woolfe to build the course. "It was a nightmare piece of ground," says Woolfe. "It had a whole series of drains that groundhogs had gotten into, and we had to dig up 150 acres."
In 1978, Foxfield's inaugural race was run, and horse-lovin' Charlottesville joined Churchill Downs, Saratoga, and Belmont Park as home to a member of the National Steeplechase Association.

I feel the need….
Writing about web page http://www.warwickale.co.uk
…the need to blog about the Warwick Real Ale Festival.
Lads, moving to the Cooler was an excellent idea. It now really feels like a festival. Excellent.
I handed in my voting form yesterday, but for the record my favourite beers of the fest were:
1. Cains Victorian Ale (I just have a note on my programme which says "Hell Yes".)
2. Enville Saaz (Cask lager)
3. Gales Festival Mild (http://www.savegales.org.uk/)
But this festival I found that I was actually liking more of the ales I tried than I have been at other festivals recently. I don't know if this is because my tastes have matured or if Warwick just had a damn good selection this year.
Finally of course, I was playing with Brasssoc at the 'Last Night of the Fest'. All I can say is that I'm glad we were so thorougly apprecitated (and thanks to those who came up and told us that, it makes the job all the more worthwhile!).

This season will be remembered 5 years from now as a minor speed bump on the ride of a lifetime.
Dwayne Roloson [7] allowed 3 goals on 31 shots for the victory. If that was Roli's last NHL game, I'm glad the boys played him out with a win.

Teddy Purcell and Steven Stamkos [8] were the game's first and third stars.
This game had just about all the elements you wanted to see to reaffirm that the Lightning, despite the struggles of this season, are on a path to longterm prosperity. Despite all their problems and despite unilaterally disarming at the trade deadline, the club finished 2 games over .500. Yes, there's several things to fix both between the pipes and defensively, as evidenced by the team finishing worst in goals against, but these guys aren't losers, even when the going gets tough. They have the character winning organizations are premised on.
Individually, the big story will obviously be Steven Stamkos' 60th goal and his second Richard Trophy. He's the best young player in the game, but we all knew that. I was far more intrigued by the B stories in this game.
Teddy Purcell's second half seems to me to be a clear sign he's ready to erupt into stardom next season, and the thing Lightning fans should be giddy about is that Teddy can produce on both Stamkos and Lecavalier's line. That gives the coaching staff a lot of flexibility.
Another B story is the young defensemen on this team. These are young guys who bring the kind of elite mobility that Guy Boucher's system really needs, and they started to produce down the stretch of the year. No offense to guys like Pavel Kubina [9], who did yoeman's work for the team, but the new blood has the pace to play this system the way it ought to be played. I'm looking at Victor Hedman [10] ending the season with points in 7 of his last 9 games. I'm looking at Brian Lee [11] with points in 4 of his last 5 games of the season, and 8 points in 20 games with the Lightning, which pro-rates to a 33 point season. Here are two guys I believe can and should be in the 30-40 point range next year, and, heck, even Eric Brewer [12] was showing more toward the end of the season. You mix in what I believe Brendan Mikkelson [13] has shown, and that's 4 guys to invest some hope in. You go out on the free agent market and add 1-2 more good defenseman and get a healthy Marc-Andre Bergeron [14] into the mix, and you'll get a top-7 that can play Boucher's system well.
Beyond that, there's an obvious need in goal that Steve Yzerman has clearly stockpiled a ridiculous amount of draft picks to address. Between the draft picks and the amount of quality young forward prospects in this organization, I dare say Yzerman will not be outbid by anyone.
And then there's what we can expect to see added from Norfolk and their ongoing 25-game winning streak next year, and the youth in the system, as a whole.. More youth, more speed, and more confidence at the forward position. The likely AHL defenseman of the year in Mark Barberio [15]. Two goaltenders playing out of their minds in Norfolk and another guy in Finland, Riku Helenius [16], who also just can't seem to lose. It's an embarassment of riches, and you will see a training camp next season where you may very well see darn near 30 NHL caliber players fighting tooth and nail for 23 spots. Good problems to have.
Keith Aulie [17] had 3 hits in 11:48. He's on Norfolk's Clear Day roster, which means he should be sent down after Lightning exit interviews and begin what I feel will be a critical 20-30 games worth of development in his young career. The crucible of the AHL playoffs could make him into a player to be reckoned with.
J.T. Brown [18] got his first NHL point, an assist, and was +2 with 2 shots in 13:52. J.T., my friend, before you leave Tampa, beg Steven Stamkos to let you go train with him with Gary Roberts [19]. Promise him your first born. Do whatever it takes to go spend this offseason getting ready to take the pounding of an 82 game NHL season, because if you do, you might have the talent to be a Calder Trophy winner next season. But, for you, that award will be won in June, July and August, not October through April.
J.T. Wyman [20] was -3 with 1 shot in 13:25. Wyman finishes the season with 40 NHL games, 1 shy of what he needs for graduation from prospect status on BoltProspects. Ain't that a shame? He'll start from scratch next year needing 39 games to graduate via the 82 game rule on the site.
