KEENE, N.H. – Sophomore Ryan Martin (Wayne, Me.) scored 25 points on 8-of-9 shooting from the field, 3-of-4 from behind the arc and a perfect six-for-six from the line to lead Keene State College to a 94-85 victory over Plymouth State University in a Little East Conference men’s basketball game at Spaulding Gymnasium.
Keene State, which has won three straight, improves to 13-5 and moves into a tie for second place in the LEC with a 5-3 mark. Plymouth State (8-9, 3-5 LEC) saw its two-game winning streak come to an end.
Juniors Anthony Mariano (Naugatuck, Conn.) and Ollie Hunter (Bedford, N.H.) added double-figures for the winners with 14 and 13 points, respectively, and they both finished with eight rebounds.
The Panthers placed five players in double-figures. Junior Brian Chergey (Bow, N.H.) led the way with 18 points, seniors Ian Dempsey (Andover, Mass.), Ryan Lambert (Derry, N.H.) and Tom Dowd (Portsmouth, N.H.) each finished with 13 points, and senior Matt Feehan (Nashua, N.H.) added 11 points. Lambert had a game-high nine rebounds.
Playing a strong defensive first half, the Owls turned a block by sophomore Rashad Wright (Agawam, Mass.) into a three-pointer by junior Anthony Mariano (Naugatuck, Conn.) at the other end of the court. Junior Derek D’Amours (Agawam, Mass.) followed with another hoop from behind the arc to stake KSC to a 27-13 lead at the 10:22 mark.
The Panthers used a 16-4 run to get back into the game. A conventional three-point play by senior Bill Stowell (Stratham, N.H.) cut the Owls lead to 31-29 with 5:19 to go. The Owls scored the final nine points of the half, capped off by a pair of free throws by sophomore Ryan Bourgeois (Bedford, N.H.) to take a 49-37 at the break. Martin hit all three of his shots from behind the arc on the way to finishing with 13 first half points.
KSC maintained its advantage early in the second half. With KSC up 63-50, PSU strung together seven straight points to close the gap to 63-57 on a corner three-pointer by Chergey. A three-pointer by Feehan made it a 69-66 game at the 8:29 mark. D’Amours, who finished with 19 points, scored five straight points and Martin followed with a scoop shot in the lane to make it 80-70 with 6:06 to go.
The Panthers made one last run at the Owls. A top-of-the-key three-pointer by Chergey cut the deficit to five points (85-80) with 2:40 to play. Lambert converted another three-pointer in PSU’s next possession to make it 85-83 with 2:10 to play. D’Amours answered with a lay-up and a pair of free throws to put KSC up 89-83.
A basket by Dowd made it 89-85 with 54.6 seconds on the clock. Martin was fouled on the Owls next possession. He hit both shots to give KSC a 91-85 lead with 49.2 seconds to go. After a missed Panther shot, Mariano was fouled in the rebound action. He made one of two shots to put KSC up 92-85. Martin, who leads Division III in free throw pct., put the game away with two more free throws to account for the final score.
The overall series between the two in-state rivals is tied at 53-53.
Keene State is at Southern Maine on Saturday (3 p.m.). PSU travels to Johnson State on Thursday (7:30 p.m.).

Description of Historic Place:
The Gusola Block is a triangular, two-storey vernacular building located on the main downtown thoroughfare. The historic place is confined to the building footprint.
Heritage Value:
Designed and built around 1937 by local contractors, the Gusola Block is a typical commercial building of the period. With a few notable exceptions, most of Nanaimo's buildings were not architect-designed. The Gusola Block's blend of architectural styles exemplifies the predominantly vernacular nature of Nanaimo's architecture and underlines the city's modest, working-class character.
The Gusola Block represents a shift to a more modern building style as exhibited in other buildings of the era including the B.C. Hydro Building (1941), the Eagle's Hall (1934) and Tom Brown's Autobody (1937).
The Gusola Block is an excellent example of a building designed to fit an irregularly shaped lot. The triangular lot was defined by Nanaimo's original topography; until the inner harbour was filled in the 1960s, this lot followed the line of the original waterfront.
The Gusola Block forms part of a significant cluster of heritage buildings located at a prominent intersection on the main downtown thoroughfare.

Character-defining elements of the Gusola Block include:
-All of the elements of the building's vernacular style including the California Mission style curved parapets and the Art Deco/Moderne style flat walls, flat roof, and decorative tile work.
-the triangular form and simple massing of the building.
-the location on the main downtown thoroughfare within a grouping of heritage buildings.

A new DesigningVashti crochet pattern in sizes Teen through adult Large/1X and a full range of lengths. Its cropped prototype won an award from the Crochet Liberation Front in 2010.
Crocheting starts out with Tunisian filet lace and a type of ruana construction. The edging is regular crochet basic stitches (chains, single crochets).
I created the blocks, and the Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve, Summer Green Teens, stuffed the holes. Paper was used.
The bees will only lay their eggs in holes of a specific size; in this case 5/16 inch. Using paper also keeps open the option to harvest the bee eggs, clean them (of some potentially nasty mites) and store them until spring.
The blocks need their cool roofs, then they are ready to be hung outside in the early spring.

Further Notes: Prior to the Digital Age, newspapers, books, posters, tickets, forms, and all other types of printed-paper were produced with a printing press. To form the words, moveable type was used and print blocks would be used along side to add images or decorations around the text. A print block is also known as a letterpress cut or a printing die.

La band nasce nel 2007 dalle ceneri dei Woptime. Vengono formati da Saverio Sgaramella (voce), attivo nella scena hardcore italiana sin dagli anni '80 (periodo d'oro di band come Negazione e Raw Power), nonchè uno dei più noti pro-skaters dell'epoca vantando esibizioni e gare a livello mondiale.
A pochi mesi dalla nascita la band diventa una delle più attive a livello di esibizioni dal vivo, costruendosi da sola, in un periodo dove chi paga si aggiudica il posto migliore in scaletta. Con un'attitudine che proviene dagli anni vissuti in strada, il sound dei Concrete Block riflette il malessere e l'angoscia di chi vive giorno per giorno con le spalle al muro, prendendo tutti i calci e i pugni che la vita riserva.
Dopo il primo MiniCD "Down With the Madness" uscito per Countdown Records in Luglio 2007, i Concrete Block suonano costantemente e condividono il palco con Sepultura, Sick Of It All, Murphy's Law, Maroon, Shattered Realm, Skarhead, Agnostic Front, The Business, Slapshot e tanti altri. Nel 2008 esce il loro primo vero full length "Life Is Brutal" (Countdown Records) prodotto da Daniele Giordana. Per molti questo disco diventa subito l'album hardcore italiano dell'anno.
Alla fine del 2009 dopo due dischi la line-up originale si scioglie, ma la band con una nuova formazione continua a suonare dal vivo. Dopo alcune date gloriose di nuovo assieme ad Agnostic Front e Skarhead arrivano problemi per Saverio, che convinto ad emigrare negli States viene bloccato in Italia per problemi tipo galera, carenza di una base monetaria, situazione lavorativa pessima ed un divorzio alle porte.
Dopo aver passato il periodo Saverio rimette in piedi la formazione con nuovi elementi, riprendono le prove, i concerti ed inizia la stesura di pezzi nuovi. Il bassista viene rimpiazzato perchè trova posto in un TV show come stand up commedia e l'album nuovo prende forma. Si arriva al 2013 con una piena attività live e "Twilight of the Gods", l'ultimo lavoro uscito per F.O.A.D. Records, registrato al One Black Sox studio da Carlo Girardi. E' la storia continua…

This is a knife block built out of pine, filled with bamboo skewers. The total cost has been about $30.
Your mileage may vary though, as I did find a sweet deal on skewers at a crazy Asian market. Then I got to explain just why I was buying 3,100 bamboo skewers.

35 Commercial Street, Nanaimo, BC.
Description of Historic Place:
The Caldwell Block is a two-storey, Edwardian style commercial building on the main downtown thoroughfare in Nanaimo. The historic place is confined to the building footprint.
Heritage Value:
The Caldwell Block is an integral part of a continuous line of largely intact, similarly scaled buildings located on the west side of Commercial Street.
Built in 1908, the Caldwell Block is a good example of a modest, vernacular Edwardian Commercial style building. The original brick façade is obscured by stucco but some of its features, including a cornice with brackets and moulded fascia, are still visible. Traces of the painted Caldwell's Clothing House sign are visible on the building's east side. Despite alterations, the building has maintained its character and reinforces the Edwardian era appearance of the west side of Commercial Street.

Character-Defining Elements:
Character-defining elements of the Caldwell Block include:
-All of the elements of the Edwardian commercial style including the simple, restrained appearance, brick construction and cornice.
-The location of the building in the middle of a city block of largely intact period buildings.
I liked the colour combination of the purple stems and green leaves on the light grey concrete blocks.
