Chuck cutting down a larger sapling, with help from Jess clearing the brush.
Our newest property, the Seven Acre Preserve, is a beautiful agricultural field on North Main Street in Petersham. There is a stone wall running along the road, but has been overgrown with saplings and vines, blocking the view from travelers.
On Saturday a great crew brought their loppers, chainsaws and brush cutters to clear more of the wall. Next time you drive by, slow down and enjoy the view into the field. Many thanks to Rick, Haley, Jess, Tom, Ken, Chuck, Fraser, Mark, John and Cynthia for all your hard work!

He was probably the most talented wide receiver to ever set foot on a gridiron, but he routinely took plays off. He admitted as much at a 2006 press conference, saying, "My concentration and focus level tend to go down sometimes when I'm in a bad mood." After he left Oakland (and, not coincidentally scored 23 touchdowns in his first season with Tom Brady in New England), his former Raiders offensive coordinator claimed that Moss told him "I'm too old to practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but I'm not too old to play on Sunday." Granted, it does take some effort to come up with awesome excuses like that.

TRAYHORN
On May 6th 2008 John Trayhorn, the second son of Charlie and Joan Trayhorn died suddenly at his home in Grange-Over-Sands, Cumbria. He is survived by his wife Denise. John was just 53 when he suffered a sudden heart attack.
John was born on August 15th 1954 in Enfield, Middlesex. He attended Lavender Road Junior School and Chace Boys School. On leaving school John went to the Barbara Speake Stage School, Acton, London where he met fellow students Jack Wild and Phil Collins. A career followed and throughout the end of the 1960's and early 70's John appeared in some of the most controversial film and plays. He was in Ken Russell's very sexy and blasphemous 'The Devils' starring Oliver Reed, Stanley Kubrick's 'A Clockwork Orange' and 'Child's Play' with Lawrence Harvey and Rupert Davies.
He understudied Jack Wild in Lionel Bart's hit film musical 'Oliver'. He made a number of TV appearances including 'Z Cars', The Benny Hill Show', 'Doomwatch' and 'The Wednesday Play'.
His only starring role was in the Children's Film Foundation Film 'Hoverbug'.
In 1972 John decided that acting was not for him so he worked for Metro Sound, Waltham Cross as a Hi Fi Technician. He left for a post as Manager for 'David Way Furnishers', Winchmore Hill, London N21.
John married in 1981. In 1990 he and Denise left Enfield for the Lake District, an area they both knew well having had many a walking holiday there. John worked as manager for 'Edge of the World' outdoor supplies, Bowness on Windemere until his death.
John was a larger than life character, short of stature but big on personality he loved his family, his wife Denise and the view from his front room of Morcambe Bay, but most of all John loved life.
His funeral was held in Lancaster Crematorium on Thursday May 22nd. Attended by friends, family and colleagues the Humanist 'Celebration of Johns Life' was led by Ian Abbott, with music by the Bonzo Dog Dooda Band and Billie Holiday.
Now John was a born entertainer
And right from the start this was seen
At the Barbara Speake Stage School at Acton
For the future of stage and screen.
With the likes of Jack Wild and Phil Collins
He learnt the craft of the stage
Then Lionel Bart's 'Oliver' hit the West End
And musicals made the front page.
It made it for young master Trayhorn
This keen theatrical lodger
If Jack Wild had gone sick, then John would step in
and we would have a new 'Artful Dodger'.
Then two old dears of the B.B.C.
Arthur Howard and Cardew the Cad
Made a film about hovercraft just for the kids
And John was there as the 'Head Lad'.
'Child's Play' was Johns next performance,
With Lawrence Harvey who made women swoon
And Rupert Davies who was famous as 'Maigret'
In a black post war Citroen Saloon.
Then the Tick Tock Tick of 'A Clockwork Orange'
Stanley Kubrick on teenage youth
Where John was thrown through a window
In the Directors search for the truth.
Now was the time for the 'Z Cars'
When Z Victor One hit the screen
And John played his part to perfection
He fell off a ladder to finish a scene.
Then the serious stuff with Ken Russell
The 'Devils' with Oliver Reed
And demur Vanessa Redgrave as a hunchbacked nun
Giving piety whenever the need.
Then the world of commerce beckoned,
Though John was an actor still,
He managed 'David Way Furnishers'
Down there in Winchmore Hill.
But the call of the wild beat faster
For a place he knew so well
To where he walked for many a mile
Across the Cumbrian Fell.
'Edge of the World' Lakeland Products
Knew talent at a glance
And grabbed John in as manager
While they had the chance.
John was a man who was larger than life
Sort of chap you could never forget
He walked, he climbed, canoed played guitar and drums,
He did them all well and yet?
His other side shone through as well
Antiques became a passion
And model railways in the loft,
They'll always be in fashion.
Nostalgia for his favorite films
When Ealing Studios held sway
And England looked so different
In an austere sort of way.
But in our memories, we've all got John
And these memories will never go cold
For when they made John Trayhorn
They threw away the mould!
(David Murphy)

I have just learned of the sad death of one of my oldest friends, John Trayhorn. John and I were best pals at Chace Boys School in Enfield, and he introduced me to drumming. We were both drummers in the 1st Enfield Boys Brigade, and we then went on to play in various local bands, which I still do to this day. I bumped into John in May 2007, and had intended visiting him sometime in Cumbria.
My thoughts are with his family at this sad time. Tony Upson
I too am very sad to learn of Johns death. I was at Lavender Road School with him and we both joined Chace Boys together. I well remember him knocking at my front door with the news that he just got his first part in a movie "The Devils". A school friend in a film, it was unbelievable.I also remember the cache of airguns in his bedroom-what happened to all of them? Sadly we lost touch around the time we all left school. But it was a priviledge to have known him. All the best.

AMC CEO Caves To Mobile Addicted Movie Goers, Considers Texting In Theaters No Matter How Lame
There's a time and place for everything, folks. Need to relieve yourself when you're out on a date having dinner? Find a restroom rather than whipping out your member or crouching in the middle of the restaurant. Are you at the movies and need to text the babysitter because you forgot to tell her that little Billy needs his medicine before bed? Quietly slink out of the theater and do it in the hallway or lobby. Or go to an AMC-owned theater, because texting during the movie might soon be allowed at its establishments. In his short time as CEO of AMC Entertainment, Adam Aron has drawn headlines. First it was for agreeing to buy rival Carmike Cinemas for $1.1 billion, making AMC the world's biggest... Read more...

YEAH Movie Streaming Service Launches With Second-Screen Focus
AMC Networks, which owns and operates AMC, IFC, Sundance Channel, WE tv and IFC Films, has just launched a new service that couldn't possibly be more fun to say. It's called YEAH! No, really -- it's called YEAH. It's being described as the first "streaming movie service that is an entirely new way to watch movies online." That sounds mighty vague, but it essentially gives each YEAH film "interactive features including 400-500 individual pieces of original content curated from in-depth research." The new bonus content is displayed on-screen seamlessly, making it a bit like VH1's Pop-Up Video, but for major films. Viewers will be able to see exclusive interviews, little-known facts, quizzes, and... Read more...

AMC Theaters Rejects MoviePass, Stings The Whole Idea
As a company who plans on relying on other companies to make a program work, there are usually a few necessary steps to take before telling the public about your scheduled program. The first of which would involve clearing your ideas with your partner companies. It'd pretty looney to expect partner companies to just go along with whatever you publish before you even check with them, but evidently that is exactly what MoviePass did last week. There was a report suggesting that an all-you-can-watch theater program was going to start in San Francisco, but now it appears that MoviePass didn't even bother to check with theaters in the area before speaking about the trial. The truth probably sits somewhere... Read more...

AMC Theaters Bucks Against Near-Term VoD Releases
Can't say it's surprising, but theater owners are getting ready for a battle when it comes to Video-on-Demand. For years now, movie theaters, movie makers, and DVD resellers have been growing increasingly wary over VoD. Why? Because the window of time between a cinema release and a VoD release has been shrinking, and all the while, movie ticket prices have been skyrocketing. It's nothing to spend over $15 per movie ticket in a major city these days, which is comical when you think that these tickets were far, far cheaper just a decade ago. What's changed? Technology, and instead of embracing it, movie theaters have pumped up ticket prices, kept popcorn prices laughably high, and resisted the... Read more...

HP's DreamColor LCD Displays One Billion Colors
There should be no doubt as to whether the engineers at HP dream in black-and-white or in color. The question should be: How many colors do they dream in? The answer: over one billion. That's how many colors HP's new DreamColor LP2480ZX LCD is capable of displaying: "The HP DreamColor Display features a new liquid crystal display (LCD) that provides a range of more than 1 billion colors in a 30-bit, LED-backlit display. The display is now shipping worldwide for a U.S. list price of $3,499."Three and a half grand might seem pretty steep for a display, but for a number of professional-level, color-accurate-critical applications, the level of accuracy that the price buys is truly mission critical:...

Will Camcorder Users Flip For The Mino, Too?
Pure Digital came out of nowhere last year with one of the hottest consumer electronics devices on the market.

Simple, easy, fun, and inexpensive quickly added up to almost a million units sold, and an instant 20 percent market share. They even let you upload your video direct to YouTube with the software interface included.

HISTORIC MINERAL PANNING AT MINER'S GEMS
Mineral panning is a historic and informative "hands on" activity (especially for school groups). When gold was discovered in 1848 at Sutters Mill by John Marshall, people flocked from all over the world to the unknown frontier of Alta California which was at that time a largely unpopulated territory of Mexico. With picks and pans they scoured the hills of northern California in search of gold and changed the history of the "golden state" forever.
Now it's your opportunity to become a miner 49er. The "mineral pans" are $4 per pan and are filled with"tailings" from the Stewart Tourmaline Mine in Rainbow, California and we "salt" them well! Washing out your pan will reveal pyrite (fools gold), quartz crystals, lepidolite, agate, jasper, and... whatever else we decide to throw in! This is an experience you wont want to miss and is great for kids and adults. Groups larger than 6 must reserve at least two weeks in advance, earliest reservations for groups take priority. Except for the group that is booked, this activity is closed on the days and/or times of group bookings. Certain times of the year are subject to blackout. Call for operating hours and RSVP.
SOME INTERESTING EARLY CALIFORNIA HISTORY
Long before the documented discovery of Alta California, the state retained a mystery that was well known by the native residents of this land. It is speculated that before the arrival of Spanish explorers, the population of California Indians numbered about 250,000. This native society was well established and consisted of many tribes and language groups. Though these native people had a well-established life, it was often viewed as a "heathen" lifestyle by European visitors. This is evident in the destruction and devastation that occurred to native populations following European arrival. One fact that separated the natives from their new neighbors was that the native people were not interested in the rich mineral deposits found on their lands. This vast wealth was not of significance until European exploration. When European explorers began arriving in Alta California, there was evidence other travelers from around the world had been there before them. However, Vasco Nunez de Balboa was the first to leave a legacy forever tying him to the great state of California. He is credited with discovering the Pacific Ocean in 1513 and it was his intrepid spirit that opened various routes which lead to the exploration and "development of the lands bordering the great western sea". Balboa began a legacy of exploration that lasted over 320 years, culminating in the discovery of the vast mineral deposits of the region and lead to the great California Gold Rush of 1849. "Balboa discovered the Pacific Ocean two hundred and seventy-six years before the French Revolution began. Cabrillo sailed into San Diego Harbor four hundred years before Martin Luther died. Sir Francis Drake careened the Golden Hind under the lee of Point Reyes before Shakespeare had learned his alphabet. Junipero Serra founded the mission of Saint Francis of Assisi in the same year that the Liberty Bell rang out the Declaration of Independence in Independence Hall" (Davis). Hernando Cortez, Ferdinand Magellan, Juan Cabrillo, Sir Francis Drake, Sebastin Vizciano, Gaspar de Portola, Juan Bautista de Anza, Jedidiah Smith, and John C. Fremont were architects of California's destiny. They helped pave the "Road to Riches", laying the way for the tide of gold seeking immigrants. Though the aforementioned explorers helped define California's boundaries, this golden land was dreamed about and written about before nearly all these explorers ever stepped foot on its shores. "What became the real geographical domain of California started out as a fictional place concocted by a Spanish writer named Garci Ordonez de Montalvo" in his early 16th century bestseller Las Sergas de Esplandian. In this fabulous tale, there existed a "terrestrial paradise" where "Precious gems were in great abundance and the only metal was gold, Calafia was queen, and after her the island was named" (Davis). Montalvo was not credited with naming California until 1862, when Edward Everett Hale happened upon the lost manuscript and has been credited with inspiring European explorers to go in search of this golden land. California might best be recognized in history for the discovery of gold in 1848, but its history is much broader. Though this discovery changed the course of the nation, the exploration of California changed the course of the world. It is the story of these distinguished explorations that culminated in the great California Gold Rush and that is our story to tell.

Post VEX and Preseason
The VEX competition, considering its enormous size of 60 teams, turned out to be pretty good. 3 Vanden teams and a Golden West Middle School team moved on to eliminations, and the Vanden-Golden alliance moved on to semifinals, where they lost to the future champion #1 alliance. After the competition, there were scratches on the gym floor left after teams moved out of the gym. Thankfully, we were able to cover much of it up with some chemicals. We did the same for residue that was left from packaging tape that was used to tape carpet to the floor. It took three hours, but by 9:30pm we finished.
This week is a pretty busy week regarding preseason. Though we are still awaiting the RoboRio, we have plenty to do instead of sitting down playing cards and simply waiting. We are designing robots in our groups for the mock Green Game, Noodle Frenzy. We present them on the day of our robotics final, December 17th. This Friday, after the 6th period final, we are all going to 7th period immediately after to celebrate as Devin Sigley is leaving the following day to Youngstown, Ohio and the FRC team 3193, the Falco Tech. Right after, we are cleaning up the whole shop: the electrical room, the mechanical room, and the CNC/welding area. Build season is less than 3 weeks away, so it's crunch time now. We still have 3 more dates for selling raffle tickets for the Microsoft Surface Pro 3. All of the dates are accessible on our website. Next week, during Christmas break, we are planning out the video outline of our Chairman's presentation. Also, the Friday before kickoff, we are cleaning up more and preparing the H3 room for kickoff. It will be full, so we will be ready.
2014 Vanden VEX Competition Photo Album
Anticipation...and More Anticipation
24 days til Kickoff. We know. It's coming.
One of our own, Devin Sigley, is moving back to Ohio on December 21st. We're all going to miss him. He will be joining the Falco Tech, Team 3193, in Austintown, Ohio, when he is there.
2 big topics have come up this month, right before build season. One of them is competitions. We have registerd for the Sacramento (UC-Davis) and Madera (Central Valley) regionals, weeks 1 and 3, respectively. However, we want to register for a third regional. There are no week 6 regionals left open in California, but there are some out of state: Chicago, Houston, Minneapolis, and Queen City (Cincinnati). Everyone in 701 (parents, students, mentors) are filling out a survey to see which one we are going to go to.
We have been working with the Robo Knights, FRC team 5496 from Buckingham Charter Magnet High School since October. We've now been thinking if we should work with them during build season, considering that they are a rookie team. Something like what the Cheesy Poofs, team 254, did with the Space Cookies when they first started out.
The China trip was great. The part of our team that journeyed to Shanghai returned full of jetlag but breathless. Many of the RoboVikes want to go back. While there,we taught many Chinese students about VEX robotics. We also played some soccer with the 9-11 year old girls. Along with that, we got to know some of them, as well as sightseeing the Forbidden City, the Great Wall of China, the Tiananmen Square, and much more. Some of us are tired of Chinese food, and others...well, they're still alive.
Thanksgiving break has come and gone, and now all of us are back to work on the battery cart, the Chairbot, and the Chairman's essay and video outline. Mr. Green has given us his "Green Game" final, a mock FRC challenge that he makes every year for the 1st semester final. He puts all of us in groups of five to design or make a visual of a robot that can complete the tasks of that game. This year, the game is called Noodle Frenzy. The object of the game is to score big pool noodles into horizontal and vertical troughs. Our "presentation" of our robot is due December 17th, and we were introduced to the game today and put in groups. We have 2 solid weeks to draw this out and possibly design this on Autodesk Inventor.
We still await the RoboRio, so that we can do some testing with it before build season.

Second Texas Lunette
Second Texas Lunette (1862-1863) - A Confederate fortification established in 1862 as a part of the defenses of Vicksburg in Warren County, Mississippi. Named after the CSA, 2nd Texas Volunteer Infantry. Abandoned after the fall of Vicksburg in 1863.
Second Texas Lunette Position Marker
Built as a crescent shaped earthworks overlooking the strategic Baldwin's Ferry Road into Vicksburg from the east.
From the beginning of Union General Ulysses S. Grant's attack on Vicksburg the lunette was under heavy bombardment and attack from Union forces. The lunette defenders drove off the attackers and inflicted such heavy casualties on 22 May 1863 that the frontal attacks were abandoned in favor of mining operations underneath the lunette. The commander of the Second Texas is quoted as saying that, "along the road for more than 200 yards the bodies lay so thick that one might have walked the whole distance without touching the ground."
The mining operations were not complete when Vicksburg was surrendered on 4 Jul 1863 and the lunette remained in Confederate hands until the surrender.

This looks nice...well done man!
I assume you composited the fire?
Whoa!!! Who is the original artist of this mech beast? The sheer scale of it all... I wanna see more. DYNAMIC!!!
I don't think ~DD~Apocalypse is claiming he made the pix. But you should quote your source if it's not your work.
Duh, I didn't read that first sentence. I didn't realize he didn't make the piece.
This doesn't really belong here. If you found this and wanted to share it with everyone, a link to the artwork would have been more appropriate in the Lightwave Community section.
i wanna learn 2 make'm like this.
I don't think Apocalypse is Pawel. I think he just likes the cool pictures.
Its cool to see someone digging pics like that. Kind of what I do in my head.

That's what Miguel, aka "Sugar," wants. He's a pitcher trying out for the Kansas City Knights. When we meet him, he's living in a baseball academy dorm, trying to impress the team's Dominican scout-coach, hoping to pick up enough English to manage life in the United States.
He hasn't been optioned. It's not a done deal. But it is in his mind.
"There's nobody better than me," he brags (in Spanish) to his teammates. "This is a million-dollar arm. I'm going to buy a Cadillac!"
Then we meet the family that is counting on him; the ramshackle house he is building, by hand, for his mom; the furniture he is also building by hand (dad was a carpenter).
We feel the pressure. At 19, his entire clan's future is riding on his success. All heartwarming but very conventional baseball movie ingredients.
Where this Sundance Film Fest favorite breaks from formula is the girlfriend who isn't determined to stay with him and follow him at all costs, the relatives who want to mooch — contrasted with the ex-ballplayer uncle who just wants to help — and in the mistakes "Sugar" (nicknamed for his sweet tooth) makes.
A friend gets cut from the team so some of the lads go out drinking. All that time in the weight room, and this is what the coaches will remember.
But Sugar's "million-dollar" arm wins the day and he's assigned to a farm team in Bridgeport, Iowa, taking a room with a conservative farm family. We've seen his teen judgment at work. As he eyes their fetching, might-be-interested church-group-leading granddaughter, we wonder "What mistake will he make next?"
Filmmakers Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck (Half Nelson) score with plenty of light "fish out of water" moments. The Dominicans on the farm team don't speak English, so they rely on a slightly more experienced teammate's restaurant savvy. "French toast," they say, morning, noon and night.
Algenis Perez Soto makes a compelling leading man as the film follows the rookie through the arc of a season, the competition among the players for the spotlight, the first mistakes Sugar makes that impact his performance and the character he must show (or not show) in responding to it.
But Sugar evolves from a simple baseball tale to a simple illegal immigrant saga and that's where it goes astray. Like a lot of young people, Sugar is making mistakes that will determine his future. As much as we root for him, his path is neither original nor particularly sympathetic.
The story is too pat and predictable to justify the film's length. And thanks to the current scandal involving the unregulated farm system that major league teams have set up in the Dominican Republic, the film (shot two years ago) seems more dated than it might have.
The games feel real, and the sense of dread for the kid's next misstep give the film heart. But this Sugar doesn't blend the sweet with the bittersweet as deftly as it might have.
Cast: Algenis Perez Soto, Rayniel Rufino, Andre Holland.
Director: Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck.

This course is designed to further develop your welding skills. At the end of the course you should be able to appreciate the importance of working practices in fabrication and welding workshops and have a broad knowledge of the welding processes achieved in one - or all - of the modules covered.
This course is for those who wish to further develop their welding skills as a route in to working in the welding and fabrication industry, or for those who are already working within the industry, in order to increase their employment potential and job security.
This course is aimed at those who have already completed Level 1 Fabrication and Welding, or who can demonstrate sufficient working experience.
In each module, welded joints will be produced. By the end of the course you will have produced five different welding joints from each of the four welding processes covered. The five joints from your chosen welding process will be tested by rigorous inspection and destructive testing in accordance with BS4872. Your joints will be assessed as either pass or fail.
You will gain a Level 2 Richmond upon Thames College Certificate. In order to achieve a full Level 2 Certification, however, you must have successfully completed three of the modules, and have five practical welding assignments assessed.
At the end of the course you should be able to appreciate the importance of working practices in fabrication and welding workshops and have a broad knowledge of the welding processes achieved in one - or all - of the following modules.
Following successful completion of the five assignments for a particular welding process you would normally progress to the next welding process of the scheme (another module), or you could move on to a Level 3 course. For career progression you could perhaps prepare for a British Standards 4872.
The purpose of the reading list is to make you aware of the numerous publications that are available on the subject of welding. You do not need to read them all! Most are useful for reference when you require specific information. Your tutor will recommend a suitable textbook should you wish to purchase one.
