Springfield in Southern Vermont. One of those small places on American Northeast apparently lost in time and space. Not much is going on there, but the scenery is the most spectacular.

From ESPNU - When two of the nation's top three-ranked squads square off, a fantastic game with a fantastic finish can be expected. That's exactly what the fans at Blake Arena saw when FAB 50 No. 1 St. Patrick (Elizabeth, N.J.) took on No. 3 Findlay Prep (Henderson, Nev.) in the marquee contest of the Hoophall Classic in Springfield, Mass., on Monday...St. Patrick was down 42-34 at the half, but used a scintillating second-half performance from Duke-bound point guard Kyrie Irving to get back in the game. He scored on a variety of jump shots and acrobatic moves in the lane, but it was two free throws by Irving with one second left that put the Celtics in position to tie the game and force overtime...With St. Patrick trailing 71-69, Irving nailed the first, but the game-tying free throw was off target. Teammate Michael Gilchrist, who was nursing knee and ankle injuries, came up with the offensive rebound, but had his put back attempt blocked by a trio of swarming Findlay Prep defenders as the buzzer sounded. With its 71-70 victory, coach Michael Peck's club from Findlay Prep (22-1) will move up to No. 2 in the next ESPN RISE FAB 50 Rankings. The No. 3 ranked Pilots lost by one point to current No. 2 Northland (Columbus, Ohio), which is set to take over the top spot in the national rankings following Saturday's win over No. 9 Oak Hill Academy at the Hoophall Classic...Irving, the No. 6 player in the ESPNU 100 and a Mr. Basketball USA candidate, finished with a game-high 30-points for St. Patrick (10-1). Findlay Prep's counter part at the point guard position, Cory Joseph, finished with a team-high 23-points, on 8-of-16 shooting, with nine boards. Joseph, ranked No. 30 in the ESPNU 100, is another Mr. Basketball USA candidate. He battled leg cramps in the second half after scoring 16-points and helping his team build a first half cushion...It was uncertain if Gilchrist, the No. 1 prospect in the ESPNU Super 60, was going to play in this game after suffering a knee injury in a game against Union (Union, N.J.) on Jan. 5. Gilchrist gave a valiant effort and even made contributions after suffering a sprained ankle in the first quarter. He finished with 19 points...Findlay Prep forward Tristan Thompson finished with eight points before fouling out, but wing Nick Johnson picked up the scoring slack for his Texas-bound teammate with 16 points. Johnson is the nephew of former Boston Celtic guard Dennis Johnson and the son of California playground legend "Jumping" Joey Johnson...Monday's marquee at the Hoophall Classic was a matchup of two great point guards and two great teams, but unfortunately time ran out on St. Patrick, which suffered its first loss on the year.

Springfield Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope (SSCT) commercial rights retained, by Ed Johnson.
Above drawing shows the generic SSCT which can readily be changed into four additional configurations. Drawings soon for *Nasmyth for camera, *stock SCT, *Springfield using stock OTA, *SSCT with transfer lens for warm room.
Russell Porter envisioned a classical Cassegrain version of his famous fixed eyepiece telescope, but he died before the evolution of the popular SCT. The overhead head knocking counterweight is now gone, see Flickr photo set.

So nice to see Bayne added Slithers to the alley wall in Springfield yesterday, Halloween. Rather appropriate, don't you think?

Built in 1927-1931, this Art Deco-style building was designed by Law, Law and Potter to serve as the home of the Central Illinois Public Service Company, which was a local energy utility in the Springfield area, though the building is more commonly known as the Illinois Building. The 15-story building was then the largest commercial office building in Illinois outside of Chicago, and stands 201 feet (61 meters) tall. The building features a limestone-clad exterior with decorative green spandrel panels between most windows on the upper floors, decorative carved sculptural reliefs, a setback upper section of the tower, multiple first floor retail shopfronts, and a main entrance on Adams Street with a decorative Art Deco transom, pendant-style light fixtures, and green marble serpentinite cladding above the doorway. The building is a contributing structure in the Central Springfield Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and expanded to its present size in 2016. The building today houses multiple office and retail tenants.
