NEW BEDFORD — It seemed like it had been days since the sun shone over New Bedford, but about 20 minutes before the New Bedford High soccer field was to be dedicated to legendary Whalers player and coach Manny Matos, the sun broke through, shining brightly across the field, it's warm glow enveloping the soon-to-be unveiled sign welcoming fans to the newly named pitch.
It seemed only fitting.
"This is an honor well deserved," said former New Bedford High athletic director Dick Ponte. "We all know of Manny's success at West Virginia and professionally. But that success was equally matched by his many years of coaching at New Bedford High.
"Hundreds of boys and girls, as well as coaches, learned from Manny's expertise in the sport he so dearly loved. It is only fitting that this field is named after one of the finest gentlemen and role models this school and city has ever known."
On hand to see the unveiling were several city and school dignitaries, as well as dozens of former players and coaches and Matos' daughter, Bethany Austin, and his widow, Melinda Matos. Manny Matos passed away in November, 2017.
"It's fantastic," Melinda said of the field dedication. "I'm just sorry he wasn't here. He was very dedicated."
Manuel F. Matos was born in Riberia Quente, Azores, and emigrated to New Bedford at age 8. Ponte remembers meeting him in 1965, when Ponte was a first-year physical education teacher and Matos was a seventh grader.
Soon, Matos would star on the pitch for the Whalers varsity team, playing well enough to earn a scholarship to the University of West Virginia, where he was a two-time All-America selection in 1973 and 1974.
"I'm a soccer fanatic," said Assistant Superintendent of Finance and Operation Andrew O'Leary. "I can't say how great it is to be in a soccer city like New Bedford. The reason it's a soccer city is because of people like Manny Matos. I had heard of the core of players (from New Bedford) who had gone to the University of West Virginia. Manny Matos started that."
Matos went on to a five-year professional career with the Philadelphia Atoms and Rhode Island Oceaneers of the American Soccer League and the New England Teamen of the North American Soccer League.
"I remember kicking the ball in the backyard when I was little," Austin said. "I remember watching him play and, like every kid does, thinking my dad was a superhero. It seemed like he was faster and stronger than everyone else on the field."
In 1977, Matos returned to New Bedford to teach and coach the boys varsity soccer team.
"My dad loved this city and this community," Austin said. "This was his home. This was his city. He played soccer for New Bedford High and he was so happy that his career path brought him back to his alma mater as a coach."
Over the next 24 years, he led the Whalers to 19 conference championships, four South Sectional finals, two South Sectional titles (1992, 1978) and one Eastern Mass Championship (1978). He was inducted into the Massachusetts High School Soccer Coaches Hall of Fame in 2001.
"Manny broke the old rule that says great players don't turn into great coaches," said Mayor Jon Mitchell. "He did both. He was a fabulous player at every level from youth leagues to the high school to the college level and professionally. He was amazing. He was a playing legend. Then he turned it into a great coaching career and his record speaks for itself."
"I grew up in New Bedford and I remember coming here with my father as a little, little boy to watch football practice," recalled athletic director Tom Tarpey. "He would always say to me, 'Watch that man coach over there and play soccer.' I didn't know anything about soccer. I remember coming over when they had people all around the field and watching coach Matos and his teams battle against the best teams in the state and watch what a class act he was."
Moments before the sign bearing his name was unveiled, Austin spoke of the special connection her father had with his players.
"He was highly respected and a little feared, which is never a bad thing for a coach," said Austin. "My dad loved his players. He loved watching them develop their skills and their confidence grow. He loved running into them years later. I love running into them, too, and hearing first-hand what a positive impact my father had on them during their high school days and how his lessons and advice continue to follow them throughout their lives."
The idea of memorializing the field in Matos' name came from school committee member Bruce Oliveira.
"When Bruce brought it forward, everyone was like 'Yeah, of course. Makes perfect sense,'" Mitchell said, going on to say: "We name things — facilities, buildings, bridges — after people we want children to emulate. These are people who are worthy of emulation in every sense of the word. They excelled at their craft, but they are also people whose character is something we want our kids to say they want to be like. That's true of Manny. This was a richly deserved distinction and a richly appropriate distinction."
Matos Field is flanked on one side by the Paul Walsh baseball field, and on another by the Paul Walsh football field.
"If you grew up in the city, like I did, you know the name Paul Walsh," Austin said. "In high school I saw the sign bearing his name or spoke the words 'Paul Walsh' almost daily. It is overwhelming and humbling to know that generations of athletes will come to know my father's name with that same kind of recognition. Imagining kids decades from now leaving school at the end of the day shouting to each other 'Are you going to Matos field to watch the game later?' fills me with a million emotions, which are impossible to put into words."
But it was John Macaroco, who played for Matos and now helms the Whalers varsity soccer team, who may have put it best.
"This is the house that coach Matos built," he said. "He was a really dedicated man, coach and person. The whole city of New Bedford that has played this game knows who coach Matos is and I'm really grateful for this honor for coach Matos."
THE GAME: Before the dedication ceremony, New Bedford had a soccer game to play against unbeaten defending state champion Nauset. The Whalers battled, but were unable to create enough offense in a 1-0 loss. Nauset's Sebastian Headrick scored the game's only goal on a one-timer off a long centering pass from Will Schiffer. The Whalers' best chance came in the 79th minute when DaMon Green got behind the defense, but Nauset keeper Jack Avellar, a four-year starter, came out and made the point-blank save. The Whalers did keep Shavar Champgnie, the Cape and Islands League scoring leader, and Anthony Lovati, the No. 2 scorer on the Cape, out of the net.
WHAT IT MEANS: Nauset improves to 15-0-2, while New Bedford falls to 9-4-4. The Whalers wrap up the regular season with a Senior Night game on the turf field against Attleboro on Wednesday.
MACAROCO: "We came out flat. I thought the second half was better, we had a little more energy. I was hoping we would come out with more energy. We knew they were undefeated and they beat us up there handily in our first game of the year. I thought we'd come out with a little more fire."
GAME STATS: The Whalers put 11 shots on net compared to seven for Nauset. Both teams had two corners. Andrea Santos made five saves for the Whalers, while Avellar made 11 for the Warriors.
BIG STOP: If you're wondering what happened to Nauset's other shot on net, it was saved by Ian DaCosta on the goal line in the 47th minute.
OTHER OPPORTUNITIES: In the 16th minute, Simplice Tange and DaMon Green played a little two-man game, but Tange's shot went wide. In the 24th minute, the Whalers had a golden scoring opportunity, but Tange's shot from 15 yards out was saved by Avellar, who dove and punched it wide of the post. Avellar made another diving top on Tange in the 34th minute. In the 45th minute, Green sent a shot into the upper 90, but Avellar once again saved it. Gabriel Ramos had a decent look in the 38th minute and Green had three shots on net in the final eight minutes. "I feel like we had enough chances to tie the game up," Macaroco said. "Their goalie came up with some big saves."

The Texas Tech Red Raiders scored touchdowns on their first five possessions as they crushed the West Virginia Mountaineers 38-17 in a Big 12 matchup Saturday in Morgantown, W.Va.
Ta'Zhawn Henry and SaRodorick Thompson each rushed for two scores, and Jett Duffey threw for 354 yards and a touchdown for Texas Tech (4-5, 2-4 Big 12), which ended a three-game losing streak.
Dalton Rigdon made three catches for 106 for the Red Raiders. Duffey completed 24 of 34 passes with no interceptions.
The Red Raiders entered the game averaging just over 30 points and 478 yards per game. In the first half, they surpassed the first statistic with 35 points and were well on their to the second with 337 yards. They finished with 481 total yards.
West Virginia's Austin Kendall went 26 of 43 passing for 355 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions before being replaced late in the third quarter. The Mountaineers finished with 549 total yards.
Backup quarterback Jarret Doege was 11 of 17 passing for 119 yards, including a 9-yard touchdown pass to Tony Mathis with five seconds left in the game.
Sam James made 14 catches for 223 yards for West Virginia (3-6, 1-5), which lost its fifth straight game. George Campbell had three receptions for 95 yards.
On their first possession, the Red Raiders went 72 yards on 11 plays, capped by a 2-yard run by Henry.
West Virginia followed by driving to the Texas Tech 13 but settled for a 30-yard field goal from Casey Legg.
The game turned on the next two plays from scrimmage. First, Duffey found Rigdon wide open behind the West Virginia defense for an 81-yard touchdown and a 14-3 lead.
Then Texas Tech's Douglas Coleman III picked off a Kendall pass on the Mountaineers' first play. It led to Henry's second touchdown, a 4-yard run, and the score was 21-3.
Thompson's scores came in the second quarter, from 1 yard and 2 yards, sandwiched around West Virginia's first touchdown. The Mountaineers' score came when Kendall lateraled to Isaiah Esdale, who fired a 24-yard touchdown pass to Kennedy McKoy.
Trailing 35-10, West Virginia tried to rally in its first possession after halftime, driving 64 yards on 14 plays before turning the ball over on downs at the Texas Tech 11.
Two possessions later, the Mountaineers drove to the Red Raiders' 17, but on a flea-flicker, Damarcus Fields picked off Kendall in the end zone.
Texas Tech played without leading receiver T.J. Vasher, who was suspended for what the university called a violation of team rules. The junior has 473 yards and six touchdowns on 37 catches.
Texas Tech's Travis Koontz was ejected late in the third quarter for targeting.

Do you ever feel annoyed to see the Christmas adverts appear in August? As a food photographer, my life is never quite 'in season' either… Did I hear anyone say Valentine's Day or was that Easter?!
It was my birthday yesterday (yeah!! 🙂 ) and we all went out for a nice Sunday lunch. There was no way you could possibly miss the flyers and special seasonal menus… Christmas must be just around the corner!
As a food photographer, that's my kind of reality too. While I may find the baubles and tinsel in the shops a bit 'over the top' during theses late summer weeks, they are so very welcome in front of my camera. It may sound strange to be shooting fabulous Christmas meals in August or even the healthy post-indulgence New Year's recipes in September. But how lucky is that? I get to eat more than one Christmas dinner!
These cute mini baubles were the perfect prop for the Vegetarian Society's Xmas shoot.
Have you spotted any festive 'early bird' specials and Season's Greetings in your local shops? I wonder if you just ignore the hype or whether you feel motivated to get organised. I'd like to share my festive post at Fiesta Friday this week. Can I ask the fab FF crew how you all keep up with visiting the countless lovely blogs? I really want to read each of your posts properly and write a meaningful comment… How does everybody else do it – you're such a supportive crowd!
Back to festive cheer… so let's hear who's bought the first Christmas present this year? Who will be crowned the best 'Christmas Elf 2014'?

I need to expand a mesh network at a remote site. It doesn't need a VLAN-aware switch, but it does need to run natively off of 12 VDC. Anyone got a recommendation?
Orv W6BI
Most of the MikroTik routers/switches will run from 11-30V.
Either the lower end switches (RB260GS) or hEX series routers. I prefer the hEX PoE for the full RouterOS and PoE functionality.
Our favorite hAP lite would work too with regular firmware ;)
Thanks - I'll check them out.
I'm also interested in very remote weatherproof switches/routers for same reasons.
Please read below for the key questions??
I recently got a Ubiquiti NanoSwitch, which is outdoor qual and can be pole mounted with the tower nodes. This way, I didn't have to repackage for the tower...
You only need to run a single PoE LAN cable up the tower. It has one downlink PoE source RJ45 port, and three devices PoE feed RJ45 ports.
It reportedly runs on "24" VDC passive, and simply passes PoE thru to the three outputs. The spec sheet claims input range of 21.6-30VDC.
But you have to carefully assess the PoE _current_ draws for each (1A max each), and total for the PoE feed (1.25A max total).
I am running two Rockets (M2 & M5) plus a NanoStation. BONUS! There is just enought power left to run a PoE PTZ Camera, via the Aux NS port!
And I'm staying below the maxes. Actually _less_ than "spec" loading! I might even be able to squeeze another cam on the other NS?
And over a 22ga AWG Cat6 HD Outdoor cable of 100ft, I'm down only about 1.2VDC!
>>> Question 1:: I'd really appreciate it if somebody could try running this nice switch on vanilla 12VDC, and see if it still works?? I just haven't had time. Yet...
Warning! I can run the above 3-4 devices and keep _under_ the _max_ PoE current limits, _only_ by pushing the power up at the _24VDC_.
IF I tried it at 12VDC, I would likely have to reduce the nodes loads. Or likely toast the circuit board traces...
Remember - these UBNT devices typically pull _constant_power_, so shifting volts up means changing currents down. Do the math!!
In my case, to enable use on either 12VDC or 24VDC station sources, I have
a) a 24VDC PoE PS for mains/generator ops,
and for tactical ops...
b) a small & efficient 12VDC-24VDC converter, with PowerPoles, and alternately,
c) a little PPole "Y" that hooks a pair of PPole equiped batteries in series to provide the 24VDC, plus
d) a set of handy PPole to 5.5mm power plug adapters (homebrew), plus 5.5mm power jack fitted PoE "LAN/PoE" splitters (eBay).
>>> Question 2:: Those little 12VDC-24VDC converters are very inexpensive, potted weatherproof, rugged, and very highly efficient. So why not simply feed with your apparent 12VDC, and push up the 24VDC????
BONUS! In this case, you get a _regulated_ 24VDC output, even with wide ranges of "12" VDC inputs, often from 8-20VDC, and even sagging batteries!
Suggestions appreciated, and we'd like to hear what you do?
Thanks & 73!
Gene :
I use those cheap 12-24V converters too. Battery system is 12V nominal but I always bump the switch and PoE up to 24V. One install here has 75-100' runs up to the roof so 24V is necessary. I have plenty of spare network cable up there so it all runs direct to a hEX PoE at 24V downstairs. I prefer to run cable and have fewer things to break that are out of reach.
Another option is to use a MikroTik PowerBox Pro and run 24V seperately over 18ga (or pair up 4+4 wires in your outdoor cat5 cable!). The PowerBoxes are just hEX PoE's in an outdoor case. Like most of their switches/routers, one can power it and pass power to all ports from ethernet port 1 subject to current limitations and voltage drop, but it also has a DC input jack for full power on each port. Voltage in is the voltage out.
I have been VERY happy with my Mikrotik switches - I have five in daily use here. One is the RB260 and another is the current version of that - the CSS106-5G-1S. They are VLAN aware if you need that. There is also a POE version, but I don't have those. Works just fine on 12V DC.
Im running a Nano Switch, feeding it 12 volts through a single 30 foot Ubiquity ToughCable. On the pole I'm running a Nanobridge, Rocket, and a cheapy 12volt PTZ camera. It works fine. I didn't bless it with math or tactical dust....it just works.
I have a few of the Netgear GS10x series switches running from 12V with no problems. I made up pigtails to the coaxial connectors from power poles.
We use the TPLINK TL-SG108E Managed switches at our repeater sites that don't have Internet (VLAN1) onsite. These run on 9 Volts, easy to convert downward from 12V. They support VLAN2 DTD as well as connected computers, cameras and similar devices. Otherwise the Netgear Prosafe GS108T supports POE in and will run off 12V DC.
We opted for option 2 in our deployment, it's cheaper. The Ubiquiti is native 24vdc so you'll need the 12vdc->24vdc converter. The Netonix will tolerate 10~72vdc and still provide reliable PoE power at the configured 24vdc or 48vdc.
Option 1: Netonix WS-8-150-DC (if PoE is needed)
Option 2: Ubiquiti ES-5XP & DC-DC Converter Amazon Part # B06W2HTFW4 (If Poe Is Needed)
Option 3: Most Linksys/Cisco/HP unmanaged switches are native 12vdc. I have a Linksys/Cisco WRT54GS2 V1 in my hand now that's 12vdc. Assuming PoE isnt needed this should be in any IT guy's junk pile.
Justin Kennedy
Most UBNT devices that I've seen from from 11VDC to 24VDC.

We know that Prince Harry is happily married to Duchess of Sussex and former actress, Meghan Markle but he has had a pretty varied dating history. Before he finally decided to tie the knot it was rumored that he was interested in Jennifer Aniston and now a startling revelation by the child of a former American president it sounds like a juicy set up almost happened.
Former President George Bush's Daughters
Former President George Bush has two twin daughters, both of which are now happily married but back in the day, they thought a very royal addition would have been perfect for their American legacy. Jenna Bush Hager found herself in the world of media when she decided to embark on a career as a journalist which finally put her in the path of Prince Harry. During the Invictus Games a few years before he met Meghan, Jenna was given the happy task of interviewing Harry. It was a rather bright day and she wanted to gaze into his bright blue eyes but they both needed to wear eye protection in order to do the interview. At this point, he was still single and so was her sister. She thought that they could make a good couple and tried to point this out to Harry after the interview was done.
Harry's Response
Jenna wanted to mention that her sister Barbra was single after the interview was done and Harry seemed like he wanted to keep talking which she relayed on NBC's The Today Show. Sadly, before she could bring it up Harry was quickly bombarded by other press. She said he made eye contact and wanted to chat later but that chat never happened. Now Barbara is happily married as is Prince Harry. It seems like everything worked out the way it was meant to and everyone got their happily ever after. Although, it would have been interesting if Harry had ended up with a Bush since they are one of America's most prominent families in their own right.
Barbara Bush is now married to Craig Coyne who is a Hollywood screenwriter. As a matter of fact, that wedding happened a couple of months after Harry wed Meghan. It seems like these two almost had the makings for a happy couple themselves as the timing was almost exactly the same but the heart wants what the heart wants. Clearly, Meghan and Harry are made for each other.

Sabrina Comellas pic by Tim Lewis
How was your day? I had a bit of a duck of a day, or some word that begins with F and works with duck. It really began a few weeks ago when my car said service was due soon and my brother's doctor said there was an odd spot on his back and my dad's old car stopped starting.
On Tuesday, I ran the gauntlet to my brother's to get the key for the safe deposit box, then went to the bank and got the title for the 2005 Saturn, then went to Good News Garage and filled out the paperwork to donate it, and made it to work on time. Dad loved GNG so it was quite fitting. I had scheduled the Civic maintenance for today then realized it was the same day as my brother's appointment. I checked in and they said if I had it in between 7 and 8 they would have it ready in time. I really wanted it in and checked, since ken and I are heading to Montreal on Monday for Iron Maiden.
Dad's old Saturn. It's off to a good home.
I arrived at 7:10, after a marginal amount of sleep, then hung out at Ken's until 9:30 when they said it was ready. I took the lovely walk over and picked it up. His friend Steve showed up and we all drove to the dermatology unit at the hospital. They looked Ken over and thought it was of no concern and didn't even do a biopsy. We left in a state of relief and found a cool spot to have a nice lunch.
I dropped them in Shelburne and headed to Burlington. I briefly thought of trying to make it to a cool show in Essex but was tired and done with driving for the day. I hung out for a bit and missed a cool ached for opportunity by leaving my phone in my room and hanging out in the living room. There's a chance I'm a bit of a Luddite.
I caught a little of the debate and generally thought the #CNN questions were even worse than the night before. At the appropriate time, I took the lovely walk downtown and settled into Deli/126. Do you know that feeling when you often have a super-cool bartender and you realized she's also a singer guitar player and haven't heard her sing and you just get a good vibe, and can't wait to hear her?
Sabrina Comellas opened the show with a mellow electric guitar and a voice that reverberated with power, whether she sang quietly, or really let it loose. She opened with a couple of covers about nights with you and being shakey then played a song about running home, from her album. It was a beautiful set.
Ivamae pic by Tim Lewis
Up next, Ivamae played a bunch of stunning new songs. It's been way too long since I've heard her perform and I was hooked from the first note. She played songs about moon shadows and truth for two. She sang of being sober and sleeping in me. There was a song about ego masturbation or ships in the night or something, then she closed with a song about reaping the love that you sow. It's always a wonderful night when she plays.
Sabrina returned to the stage and brought Greg on bass and Seamus on drums. They rocked out songs about learning how to take loving you, and being the weekend, and not closing your eyes. The band were cool and her voice kept the full room enthralled. They played a song about relapsing then Ivamae joined in on vocals for a song about remembering. Ivamae sang lead on a song about being sober in October then then they went into duo mode. Sabrina filled in backing vocals as Ivamae sang a couple of songs about the truth then the real magic happened. They sang a song about only saying goodbye with words and they both let their vocals loose. Their voices intertwined in a captivating way. You could sort of feel the whole night leading up to that point, and it did not disappoint.
The band with Sabrina Comellas and Ivamae pic by Tim Lewis
They closed the night with a song that began sugary sweet then delved into an onslaught of delightfully bad words, often rhyming with duck. Seriously, it's one of those songs that will become a legend and everyone will beg to hear whenever they play.
I hung out for a bit, chatted with the band and Luke Adam then took the lovely walk home. Wait, what time is it? How long have I been awake? OK, radio show tomorrow, or later today, if we're back up and running. Sigh, life.

Point Au Roche State Park
Entry posted by Craig ·

I was feeling lazy today. My initial plans were to hike Spruce Mt. with some friends, but just didn't want to get out of bed this morning. So I texted them to see if they too would rather hike Rattlesnake Mt. in Willsboro. They were feeling lazy also, so we hemmed an hawed on a few different hikes. Long story short it was just me and the pups, and we headed out to Point Au Roche State Park.
This is a very popular area all year long. I was surprised to have only run into two other people on the trail. This was nice because it allowed me to run the dogs off leash, and when I seen another person recalled them until the other hiker passed by.
All three pups came with me today, which is good as typically Hattie feels left out when we hike a mountain. Hattie is nursing knee surgery from last summer, and I'm taking it easy with her.
We went out on the point taking the orange trail, following the rim all the around.

Desi, Aaron and Tim had a nice little weekend while Desi was in town to "relax". On Friday, the 12th Tim and the guys went down to hang out, smoke some pipes, drink some brews and explore PB.
As I was leaving for work that morning, Tim was laying down and put his hands behind his head. I went to sit next to him, just having a nice quiet moment before the busyness of the day started when he asked, "Is it weird that I'd rather spend time with my wife than my guy friends?" Now of course I knew that he wanted to go, but it was still so sweet for him to express his heart. So don't be hurt guys, he still loves you...he just loves me more =)
After I left for work, I guess he picked up Desi and headed down to meet Aaron at Stone Brewery in Escondido.
Tim texted that it was a cool place, and that I would like it (Tim's not a drinker, but I am). He tried a pale ale and then they headed to a place called the "Abbey" in San Marcos, I guess it's in the same place that Stone used to be, but Tim said it didn't look up to code exactly. The boys continued their adventure at Pizza Port in Carlsbad and then finally down to the Pacific Shores hotel in PB. That night they went to Henessey in PB and smoked pipes on the beach.
Tim had a great time the next day at the exotic car showroom the next day.
After a trip to Desi's grandma's house, he returned home and napped. A nice day, and if any of you guys wants to add some details, let me know. Thanks for the GNO guys.

Innovate: Derick Martin, transforming students eating habit
By Caesar Keluro on November 2, 2011
How I Did It: Innovate: Derick Martin
He is the co-founder of the school meals catering company on transforming student eating habits and reaching the £18m mark in three years.
Jamie Oliver may have brought the debate around healthy school dinners to centre stage, but you could argue Derick Martin made even bigger strides in the campaign. The co-founder of school catering company Innovate has managed what the TV chef struggled to do – to make healthy food appealing to kids. And despite turnover reaching £18m in just three years, he's still tinkering with his recipe for success.
Innovate not only provides tasty, healthy and most importantly, tempting school dinners it encompasses the entire school dining experience – from reimagined menus to redesigned cafeteria space. Despite its short lifespan, (Innovate only officially launched in 2008) the company has already secured an impressive array of catering, environmental and business accolades as well as praise from educational board OFSTED, which no doubt has contributed to the fast take-up of the service by UK schools.
Derick and co-founder Geoff Peppiatt were no strangers to the catering industry before setting up Innovate. Derick was involved in a management buy-out of the Three Cooks Bakery chain from RHM in 2004 and the idea for the school catering business was conceived while they were running the 250-strong chain of bakery shops throughout the UK. Derick explains: "A school teacher called us and said 'I am fed-up with dragging our kids out of your shops everyday – have you ever thought about opening up in a school?'".
Sensing the teacher may be on to something, the pair started to research the school catering industry, reading every single document they could lay their hands on, in addition to looking at what the government and school food trust was saying about healthy eating. It wasn't long before they realised school catering hadn't changed that much since they themselves were students several decades earlier.
After some initial research the pair went on to visit a school in Maidenhead and met with the head teacher and business manager to discuss the proposal of setting up a pilot in the school. "The conversation was very strange as we were a bakery business and selling everything that wasn't healthy, quite probably, but it's what the kids wanted to buy." According to Derick, the main reason school catering fails is because the students, or customers, aren't served the type of food people want to eat, or given a particularly pleasant environment to eat in – remember those long rows of tables in a noisy dining hall?
Within the next couple of years, Derick and Geoff moved the bakery chain into the education sector where they led a management buy-out of a school catering focused business, and co-founded Innovate.
TV Campaign: Shortly before Innovate's pilot scheme launched, TV chef Jamie Oliver had publically gone to war against unhealthy school food with his campaign 'Feed Me Better'.
However, according to Derick this did little to actually incentivise school children to eat school meals, and many continued to bring unhealthy packed lunches or go out at lunch if they were allowed. "What Jamie Oliver's school meal campaign did was create a huge challenge for us at the time we entered the market as he caused a lot of upset within school catering." Jamie's, arguably dictatorial and somewhat bulldozer, approach to school catering is radically different to Innovate's, which places great emphasis on listening to what the customer, i.e. the school, students and parents actually want.
According to Derick, the Jamie Oliver effect in real terms caused the popularity of eating school meals to plummet at secondary school level while in primary schools it started a long transition towards healthy eating.
Deciding at the outset that first and foremost Innovate would be run as a business, not a healthy eating reform, the pair drew on their experience from their retail background and applied it to the education system in a way that hadn't been done before. Although, the food sold by Innovate is healthy, it is packaged and presented in a way that is attractive to students and the secret of their commercial success is that the food "actually tastes good and is set in an environment students enjoy hanging out in".
Today, walking into any school that has been 'Innovated' you are more likely to be faced with a tasty looking selection of freshly prepared paninis, wraps, pasta salads and even freshly brewed coffee in a funky or atmospheric setting that is comparable to many high street chains. And the results speak for themselves; all Innovate schools have seen a dramatic increase in students eating a school lunch. Positive word-of-mouth has helped boost business for Innovate, which tends to rely on this rather than more formal means of advertising.
In its three years of trading Innovate has worked with 65 schools across the country, bringing on around 20 new schools a year, which Derick says has helped the company grow at around 60% a year. Turnover last year was an impressive £18m and the company has projected £24m for 2011 as it continues its organic growth.
Derick's goal now is to continue to grow the business and work with more schools up and down the country. "We want to become the Pret A Manger of school catering," he says.

Turtle Lovers will gather in downtown Titusville on from 10 am to 8 pm, Saturday May 11, 2019 for the 9th annual Titusville Sea Turtle Festival. The Downtown Titusville Merchant's Association has invited] local environmental groups, vendors and performers will be on hand to create a fun, family event that educates while entertaining.
On Saturday, prior to the festival, the Canaveral National Seashore will offer a Junior Ranger Program at the Eddy Creek Pavilion, Playalinda Beach from 8 to 10 am. At the same time the Playalinda Brewery Sustainability Squad will conduct a riverfront trash cleanup at the east end of Main St. The festival itself begins at 10 am on US 1 N in Historic Downtown Titusville .

"Karen Pence, the wife of Vice President Mike Pence, spurned her husband and wouldn`t even say hello to President Trump on Election Day 2016 when it became clear Trump won the White House, a new book about the campaign says.
After Pennsylvania was called for Trump giving him the win, Pence moved to kiss his wife, and she turned away.
`You got what you wanted, Mike. Now leave me alone,` she said, Michael Lewis writes in his book, `The Fifth Risk,` according to an excerpt published in The Guardian on Thursday."
The New York Post
Karen Pence, hereafter referred to by her pet name "Mother," is an evangelical Christian who reportedly was disgusted by Trump`s misogynist comments on the "Access Hollywood" tape. Like any evangelical Christian who hasn`t become inebriated on Kool-Aid she finds the president reprehensible.
As the wife of a veteran politician Mother knows that politics makes strange bedfellows, and she wouldn`t be too surprised if she caught her hubby in bed with a 20-something Bernie Sanders bro.
But when Pence agreed to become Trump`s running mate she must have been sick to her stomach. The Bible warns about being unequally yoked with unbelievers, and she must have imagined that the unholy union between her spouse and Trump sealed their damnation.
On election night when it became clear that Trump won the White House, Pence attempted to give Mother a celebratory kiss, but she rudely rebuffed him, saying "You got what you wanted, Mike. Now leave me alone."
I doubt that Mike has received anything more than a peck on the cheek from Mother the last two years, and she`s probably permanently shuttered her back door, depriving him of the back door action that he craves.
If Mike doesn`t succeed Trump after impeachment or after the end of his term, I`m betting Mother will swiftly divorce him.

Today I am celebrating the birthday of Ninon de l'Enclos, a courtesan, freethinker and patron of the arts who was born in Paris in 1620. Her mother was a devout Catholic, but her father, a professional musician, was much more of a free spirit. He taught her to play the lute and the clavichord and took her with him around the salons of Paris. In 1632, he was exiled from France following a duel over another man's wife. Ninon identified much more with her father, so she must have found life difficult with her fanatical mother. She did not see that her mother's religion brought her happiness and began to believe that it was all nonsense. She also resolved never to marry. To this end, she allowed herself to be 'ruined' by a cousin of the king, to make sure her mother couldn't marry her off. Her mother put her in a convent.
Having sworn not to marry, Ninon had three choices, she could join the Church, become a governess or become a courtesan. The Church was definitely out as she didn't believe in God. She left the convent less that a year later, when her mother died. Governess would have been boring. She was soon back in the salons again and well on her way to becoming one of Paris's most celebrated courtesans. The Salons of Paris were places where people who were interested in literature and philosophy gathered together to amuse one another and exchange ideas.
Ninon was also famous for being beautiful and for retaining her beauty far into old age. In fact, some believed that when she was eighteen, she was visited by a mysterious white haired old man who is known only as the Noctambule (the sleepwalker). He told her that he had come to bestow on her one of three gifts. She must choose which she wanted: Riches, glory or eternal beauty. He told her that he had wandered the earth for six thousand years and had only made this offer to four other people: Semiramis, Helen of Troy, Cleopatra, and Diane de Poitiers. Ninon was the fifth and last person he would ask. She chose beauty and he asked her to write her name on a black tablet. In return for this gift, he would visit her once more, three days before her death and she must give him her soul. Good story, but it was probably made up by a drunken priest who was a bit obsessed with her.
Although she had a succession of wealthy lovers, she was never supported by any of them. Her independence was important to her. Her lovers had to understand that she needed to accept paid assignations with other men. They also had to understand that they couldn't keep her. When she said it was over, it was over. She rarely had a relationship that lasted longer that three month and she was perfectly happy with that. Her behaviour was considered a scandal amongst more devout circles of Paris, not just for her numerous affairs, but also for her non-belief in God. In 1656 she was imprisoned in the Convent of the Madelonnettes at the behest of Queen Anne of Austria, who was then regent of France. But she was visited by Queen Christine, the exiled queen of Sweden, who intervened on her behalf and she was soon released.
By 1667, she was running a salon of her own at the Hôtel de Sagonne. She offered lectures on the subject of love; both how to win love and how to properly end an affair. Men had to pay for her advice, but women, she taught for free. Her salon became a safe meeting place for people who, like herself, were sceptical about Christianity. She believed that it was possible to live a moral life without being a Christian. Philosophically, she was a neo-Epicurean which means that she felt pleasure was the most important thing in life and that pain should always be avoided. She argued that, while wealth, power, honour and virtue might contribute to our happiness, it is the enjoyment of pleasure that really drives us and we shouldn't feel guilty about it. Christianity, she felt, was responsible for making us ashamed of pleasure and that was wrong: "They preferred the austerities of deserts and rocks to the pleasures of a garden bursting with flowers."
For her, sex was the pinnacle of human pleasure, but in order for it be really great, men and women should treat each other with equal respect. In seventeenth century France, women were expected to be pleasant and amusing and men intellectual and commanding. She said men should be more sympathetic and amusing and women shouldn't be afraid of being clever.
Ninon believed that love is an instinct which knows no reason. It is an amoral passion that will die if you try to refine it with moral codes like chivalry. She has this to say about it:
"If you attempt to walk in the footsteps of our ancient heroes of the romances and attempt to develop great and restrained sentiments, you will soon discover that this alleged heroism only turns love into a sad and occasionally lethal folly. Love in fact is fanaticism. If you separate it from the romantic baggage public opinion has added to it, it will soon give you its proper sort of pleasure and happiness. Trust me: If it were reason that designed the affairs of the heart, love would be insipid."
When people thought that is was terribly immoral of her to be always falling in love with someone new, her reply was that love should not be the subject of either praise or blame. It would be the same as deciding whether being thirsty was a good or a bad thing.
She lived a long and happy life and died when she was eighty-five. In her will she left money to the nine-year-old son of her accountant to buy books. He grew up to be the famous writer, historian and philosopher, Voltaire. Want to know if the Noctambule came back for her like he promised? He did but, as she did not believe in God, she had no soul to give him and he had to go away empty handed.

text: The Spring Term is dedicated to economics. The first class on Tuesday, 5 February took a critical look at neo-liberal economics. The class was introduced by Dr Martin Graham who, in addition to describing the fundamental theories and assumptions employed, described how this type of economics served the interests of the rich and powerful and now dominated public policy, being essentially the only type of economics taught in our colleges and universities – this despite numerous theoretical shortcomings, dubious assumptions and a total failure to explain the actual economy we observe in the 21st Century.

text: Hey guys, have any of you put together usa custom strats or teles? I got my parts yesterday, finished by roxy. The neck to body fit is disapointing, the neck would not get in,just too tight. I have had this issue before with warmoth stuff, so I was bummed. However, usually a light sanding of the neck finish at the base of it where meets the pocket is usually sufficient to correct it. So, after a careful sanding off of the finish in that area, I carefully press it in, and before halfway down the finish on the body at the sides of the pocket buckles up like peanut brittle and flakes off in 2 spots. Man I am bummed. I was careful to insert the neck correctly (I have done this dozens of times) but the paint came off easy. Have any of you encountered this problem? I always heard such great stuff about these guys and perfectly fitted parts, but mine has been a real letdown. I do have messages in to both roxy and usa custom, so I hope they can help me out, I just wanted to know if I am just unlucky or is this not uncommon.

adidas mi-coach up for grabs for 25,000th handicap claimant!
With less than two weeks to go in the June Reward Running competition, we're delighted to announce that an adidas mi-coach (RRP £125) is being awarded to the 25,000th runbritain handicap claimant, a landmark figure which is fast approaching.
In addition - if you haven't already heard - June is an even bigger and better Reward Running bonus month than April and May, and we have four spot prizes (Sennheiser headphones) up for grabs!
If you haven't entered Reward Running before, here are a few things you need to know!
Reward Running is our free monthly competition where runners can win a prize if they reduce their handicap score by the largest number of points in the month. At the end of the month, the runners who are in the top 10 of the leaderboard that month will win a prize - an adidas miCoach for the winner, and Sennheiser headphones for the rest.
*The first thing you need to do is claim your handicap!*
The top 10 consists of the runners who have improved their handicap the most in that month, but within the top 10, one place is reserved for the most improved in each of the four handicap categories:
1: 5 or under 2: 6-12 3: 13-20 4: 21 or above
There is also one place reserved for the most improved runner that has run at least 10 races in the year before the competition month.
If you haven't already claimed your free handicap and the attraction of a free adidas mi-coach for being the 25,000th claimant hasn't convinced you to sign up, here are five more great reasons to get involved:
1. It's a unique handicap system for running. Just like golf you get a handicap from 0.0 - 36.0 giving runners of all abilities the chance to benchmark their progress and compare their results across a range of terrains and distances. The score automatically updates each time you race (once you have claimed) and rewards regular racing as well as automatically factoring in a degree of difficulty on races that are multi-terrain, hilly or windy.
2. You can be part of the National Running Ladder and check out where your handicap puts you compared to every other runner in the UK, e.g. does your 5k time put you higher than your friend's half marathon and marathon times?
3. Be part of 'Reward Running' and be in with a chance of winning an adidas mi-coach or Sennheiser headphones if your score shows the greatest improvement - it's free to enter too
4. Find out where your times put you in the official UK road rankings
5. And finally...log your training mileage, watch your progress graph rise and check out head-to-heads with your training partners.
All the information you need is on the runbritain rankings site.

Modulus of Elasticity
No matter what material you use for any construction or for the preparation of any item, it is very important to know its modulus of elasticity, or elastic modulus.
This is because the modulus of elasticity decides on how much the material can elongate, after a particular stage, before it might break and never return to its original shape.
Thus modulus of elasticity always seems to be an important parameter in any field of engineering. In simple words, modulus of elasticity can be defined as the ratio of stress to strain and it is often denoted as lambda.
Types of Modulus of Elasticity:
We have different types in modulus of elasticity depending on what type of load is applied on the material.
If the load applied is tensile, that is positive load, we call it Young's modulus and it is denoted as E. next important type of modulus of elasticity is the shear modulus which is caused by the application of shear load. It can be represented as G. the bulk modulus, yet another type of modulus of elasticity, is when the change takes place on the entire volume of material. It is often represented as K.

Study demonstrates tax cuts don't lead to growth
Here's a brief economic history of the last quarter-century in taxes and growth. In 1990, President George H. W. Bush raised taxes, and GDP growth increased over the next five years. In 1993, President Bill Clinton raised the top marginal tax rate, and GDP growth increased over the next five years. In 2001 and 2003, […]

Ivanka Trump taking an official job in the White House isn't close to the worst thing we've seen so far. There's even some chance she'll be a constructive force on women's issues. Which is already more than you can say about her father on immigration and race.
The position is said to be unpaid. But as with everything the Trumps do, there's ROI in it.

But according to the U.S. Small Business Administration, it's literally a drop in the bucket. […]

In the last post, I had discussed the unusual ordinance brought about to resolve the dispute in jurisdiction of ULIPs. The ordinance does another thing. It introduces a dispute resolution mechanism between four regulators - the insurance, the banking, the securities and the pension fund. However, the disputes in scope only relate to the definition and jurisdiction of financial instruments - securities, repos, derivatives etc.
Is this committee a good idea? It may be a good idea for the very short term, but is too ad hoc for meaningful long term issues. The problems with the committee formed are:
a) it is created by way of ordinance, so it will lapse - it is therefore temporary by its nature.
b) It creates powerful tensions between the will of the parliament in creating autonomous regulators and the will of the executive in resolving disputes by way of executive ordinance. Ideally, both mechanisms ought to be statutory because the executive should not interfere with the will of the legislature which chose not to create a dispute resolving mechanism.
c) It is of limited jurisdiction in its scope. What happens to other issues to resolve besides the jurisdiction and definition of instruments?
d) What happens to the talk shop known as HLCC and what happens to the plan to introduce FSDC as proposed in the budget to resolve issues between regulators. Ideally, the ad hoc committee must give way to a well thought out FSDC which resolves issues and it has teeth - but the FSDC must have real teeth like the committee.

"You are the light of the world!
You are the light of the world!
But if that light is under a bushel,
It's lost something kind of crucial
You've got to stay bright to be the light of the world."
— Godspell
Dear friends,
These words, adapted from Matthew 5:14, remind us in a fun way that, although our light may be shining, "something kind of crucial" is lost if we don't bring the light we have out into the world, for all to see, for the glory of our generous God and the building of the kingdom.
In the months since Brave and I arrived here, we have seen that light demonstrated joyfully in our own parish: in our love and care for one another, our worship, our learning programs, our care for the facilities we have inherited, and in our service outside our walls in the wider community.
I am overjoyed at the generosity of the people of St. John's, because when we bring our light out into the world, we express our gratitude, confidence and willingness to take risks as agents of Jesus remaking the world. In making our light visible, we keep our salt flavorful, as Jesus puts it in these words from The Message:
"Let me tell you why you are here. You're here to be salt-seasoning that brings out the God-flavors of this earth. If you lose your saltiness, how will people taste godliness? Here's another way to put it: You're here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We're going public with this, as public as a city on a hill."
Indeed, our work, our prayers and our giving are all about making God's flavors, colors, and love visible and available to all in our lives. And they are about our willingness to accept the challenge to stretch and grow, into our individual purpose, and into the mission of our church.
I ask all of you to reflect on the gifts you have received through this parish family, and to consider how God is calling you to risk "flavoring" the world with your time, talents and treasure. I pray that we will join together to give abundantly to shine our light into the lives and the world around us.
Fr. Jeremy

The price of 3D goodies plummets ever lower with the release of Viewsonic's latest 3D camcorder.
Ease of use is the order of the day for the ViewSonic 3DV5, which offers one-touch recording, and a quick switch between 2D and 3D recording. To watch your movies, just plug in the camcorder to your computer via USB, or straight into a 3D TV with the HDMI cable.
As 3D conversions take place on board this pocket camcorder, you can upload your creations directly to YouTube's 3D channel too.
And you can ditch the special glasses (supplied) if you want to watch on the camcorder's screen, as it has a built-in 2.4in 'autosteroscopic' display – handy for checking content when you're out and about.
The camcorder can film content in MP4 format at HD 720p resolution, and can also take still images. It comes with only 10MB of internal memory, so you'll probably want to up that by buying an SD card.
For such a bargain price, we're not sure just how good the finished product is likely to be – your films are hardly going to be up there with movies filmed on the likes of the Panasonic HDC-SDT750 3D HD, but then that costs well over a grand.
If you're after a novel Christmas gift at this kind of price point, it might be worth a punt, and should be in the shops now. But if you are not completely desperate to jump on the 3D bandwagon, it's probably worth waiting to see what else is waiting in the wings before letting go of your hard-earned cash.
