Eccleston Reveals Why He Left "Doctor Who"
June 15, 2010 By Mike Hickerson 13 Comments
Five years ago, actor Christopher Eccleston created waves in the "Doctor Who" community when he decided to leave the revived series after just one season in the role.
In that time, fans have speculated as to why Eccleston left the iconic Time Lord role, but everyone associated with the show has been tight-lipped about the decision for Eccleston's departure.
But now Eccleston is looking to set the record straight on why he left.
The actor says he was proud of the work he did on the show, but he "wasn't comfortable working on it."
"I think it's more important to be your own man than be successful, so I left," he tells BBC News.
"I was open-minded but I decided after my experience on the first series that I didn't want to do any more," he said.
"I didn't enjoy the environment and the culture that we, the cast and crew, had to work in," he continues. "I thought if I stay in this job, I'm going to have to blind myself to certain things that I thought were wrong."
But the 46-year-old said the fact that he played the Doctor – and not that he had quit – was "the most important thing".
"I really feel that because it kind of broke the mold and it helped to reinvent it. I'm very proud of it," he adds.

I would really have loved at least one more season with Eccleston, but I respect his decision.
However, if he would come back to do a new "multiple Doctors" episode, that would be awesome. 🙂
TallGrrl says
I wonder if it had anything to do with the television production work experience.
When you work on episodic TV, time is money in a very real way.
It's fast, and as an actor, you have to get used to not having the luxury of doing multiples of multiples of takes just because you don't feel like you "got it".
You do it, and if the director likes it, you move on. You may get another go or two at it, but that's it.
Eccleston is a fine actor and I'd've loved to have seen him do another season, but c'est la vie.
His season was 'fantastic!' and I enjoyed his villianous turn in GI Joe as well.
Whatever he's in, I enjoy watching him.
the lows says
Well it's not for everyone, and let's face it; if they take off in the role they will always be typed cast. Look at Tennat, who is a great actor; but what he is doing to distance himself now. Would like to Eccleston in other roles, he would make, perhaps a good Bond? Just a thought.
Huh. I thought Eccleston and the production team were pretty candid about his leaving at the time, but if they feel the need to clarify that's fine. Having seen his interview on Top Gear, I'm not at all surprised that he wasn't entirely comfortable with the demands of television filming and the fame that comes with being The Doctor. Still, he did a magnificent job with the role while he played it.
Hilsto says
He seemed to have given 100% for the time he was on the show and then he quit. Nothing wrong with that. I'd love to have gotten more seasons with him, but tv filming isn't for everyone. It would be great if we could do The Four Doctors or something and get Eight – Eleven on screen together. Ok, so I am just desperate to get Eight back on screen.
JoshEnglsh says
I had always heard conflicting rumors, but he did mention in an interview that the Doctor was such a different kind of role from his normal dour and serious roles. I truly enjoyed him Doctor, and as he was my introduction to Dr. Who, Tennant has become second place in my heart. Maybe third. We'll have to see how Smith handles the rest of season five.
Christiana says
i loved Eccleston. i wish he would of stayed im not sure if i can watch the rest of the seasons with out him. its just not the same.
Knot Knight says
@Christiana I know what you mean. I thought I couldn't watch anymore after he was gone, but I gotta say, Tennant does a wonderful job. Eccleston is my favorite, hands down, but he's not the only one.
And so my Doctor Who marathon continues!
Ben Ragunton says
Not to be the "downer" here, but I'm constantly amazed at people who rave at Eccleston's performance.
I had the privilege of seeing the re-booted series before it officially aired here in the US, and I (along with my podcast co-host (shameless plug)) immediately didn't like him. As for me, I found Eccleston to be far too depressed, his dress standard was far too tame (look at past Doctor's to see that they have ALWAYS dressed strangely), he did little but whine a lot and ALMOST NEVER actually solved anything. It was usually Rose who did what was needed to take care of what needed to be done.
Eccleston's Doctor was the most ineffective of all of them and I was thrilled when he decided to leave and Tenant took the role. Not only did he come across as more "whimsical" than Eccleston, but the writing took a definitive turn and started producing better stories and lines for Tenant's Doctor to bring out that eccentric characteristic which is a key personality component to the Doctor, regardless of which incarnation you are watching.
DEAD ON!!!!
alyce says
One thing. Christopher talks about his views of the doctor. He said that he wanted it to be different, with more emphasis placed on the companions being able to aptly help rather than just the Doctor rushing in and saving the day. His seeming depression also added a layer. I think he was also trying to show what the Doctor would be like knowing he is the only time lord left in the universe.
I agree Ben, CE was not that good. I was happy with him but when DT took over I was very happy. He is saying he is setting the reocrd straight but all he mentions above is vague- What was the environment or the culture that he was not happy with? Being his own man, again what does this mean he was a woman on DR Who? Ridiculous- he could not handle it. OH well, he made a good start but I for one do not miss him.
Kitty says
I wonder whether he observed some sexism on the set that he wasn't comfortable with. It's a great show, but in that first season, he does rescue Rose a lot. Of course, she has a brilliant moment at the end of the season. But if that script reflects the attitudes of the producers and directors, it might have been a sexist environment. I read that he did not like the "politics." Then someone above here said something about him not wanting to always be the rescuer. It's possible that he is as advanced a person as Dr. Who is supposed to be.

Mindfulness is all the rage right now, but what, if you don't mind, does mindfulness actually mean?
The subtitle to a new book on the subject, How to find calm and contentment in the chaos of the city, gives us a hefty clue. Calm and contentment? Sounds good. So what better place to meet the author, Tessa Watt, than central London at rush hour, a time and location that is guaranteed to be chaotic?

ICYMI: Senate Candidate Makes Stop In Los Alamos
By Dominic Pacheco August 21, 2017 August 24th, 2017 No Comments
Home / News/Events / ICYMI: Senate Candidate Makes Stop In Los Alamos
Senate Candidate Makes Stop In Los Alamos
LA Monitor
By Tris DeRoma
LOS ALAMOS- In his bid to unseat Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) in the 2018 senatorial race, businessman Mick Rich is taking his fight straight to the middle class.
When he talks healthcare, border security, the economy or any other topic, Rich tends to keep his focus on the New Mexicans in the middle.
Nowhere is this more clear than when he talks about utility rates.
"Right now, here's where we are at on this. They're looking at subsidizing large customers to move here and subsidize their electrical rates. And the people at the bottom, they're getting their rates subsidized by different programs to help the disadvantaged. So, who pays full freight? The average, hard working New Mexican." Rich said. "Right now, we have a system that's unfair. What we need to do is consider that we have fair utility rates for everybody, not just for the people at the top and the bottom."
He does admit, however, that he's facing an uphill battle when it comes to helping the middle class. Part of the problem, Rich says, is that Heinrich and other members of New Mexico's congressional delegation haven't done enough to defend New Mexico's economic interests, especially when it comes to military project.
"There are less opportunities here than when I came to New Mexico in 1980," he said. "There's less jobs, less opportunities. It's real frustrating to see. I'm hearing that other states are looking at New Mexico as weak, our state is being taken advantage of by other states. Our missions are being taken," he said. "In New Mexico, we lost our F-16s for our air national guard. We now have an air national guard with no airplanes. Holloman Air Force Base lost their F-22s.
That to me is real troubling, But our two senators (Heinrich, Tom Udall-D-NM) are excited that Holleman's getting more F-16s. I'm saying that if the F-16s are such a great airplane Tell Utah to keep the F-16 and give us the F-35s they're getting. We're getting the hand me downs."
Rich said he would do the same for the labs, and its subcontractors. (Rich's company, Mick Rich LLC, has a contract with LANL. Rich said he is now a consultant for the company and that his son handles the day to day business. Rich is also a former employee of LANL.)
"I'm not required in my business to contract or hire individuals from Northern New Mexico, but I have made it a point to do that in my own company, even though it wasn't required," he said.
Rich also believes that if New Mexico's congressional leadership is going to fight for the New Mexico's national labs, then the labs should do a better job of keeping its workers safe.
When he talks about when Pete Domenici was a New Mexico senator (1973-2009), he had a more personable relationship with the laboratories, which commanded him more respect with the labs and in Washington D.C. That's the type of relationship he would aspire to if he was elected senator, Rich said.
"I'm a simple guy. I look around and think what worked, and what doesn't work Sen. Domenici made sure the labs had a mission. He made sure that mission was funded, and that the funds were well spent," Rich said. "When there was a problem, the lab personnel were more concerned about the senator coming up to visit them the Department of Energy. It was quite remarkable how he conducted himself with the labs, it gave him huge credibility in Washington. This is a guy that held the labs' and the military base's feet to the fire."
As for healthcare, Rich believes the answer is to open up the market, to let small businesses and individuals purchase health coverage across state lines.
"Big business can buy health care across state lines, big labor can buy healthcare across state lines why can't small business and average guys and gals buy health care across state lines," he said.
As a businessman, Rich said the Affordable Care Act has done nothing for small business.
"My daughter is a medical student. She and I went to Martin Heinrich's town hall meeting when they were discussing Obamacare (Affordable Care Act) and he stood up there and what he told everyone at that time was that cost are going to go down, care will be more affordable, you're going to be able to keep you health plan, you're going to be able to keep my doctor and you're going to see how really good it is," he said.
"I wasn't able to keep my doctor, my health plan for all my staff has changed, all my costs to my company has gone up, the costs to my staff have gone up, it's all fallen apart."
Rich said if he gets to Washington he's going to vote for whatever he knows would work, pre-existing medical conditions included.
"I've dealt with the pre-existing conditions issue within my own family and I know how important that is, I know how important it was to my family, how unfair it was to my family. Whatever changes are going to be made, those pre existing conditions issues are going to be dealt with in a fair fashion for everybody. The idea that someone has a pre existing condition and their stuck, that's not fair. Right now we have a health care system that's not affordable, not accessible," he said.
Rich said a lot of the problems he wants to solve are linked to New Mexico's porous border with Mexico.
"I went to Deming, met with ranchers just 20 miles from the border and talked with them," Rich said. "They are talking about the drug runners coming through their ranch… we're talking about people making a living out of killing. We're talking about drug runners coming through the property checking the doors and the windows to see if they're unlocked. When I met with them and driving up to their ranch house, they're saying these drugrunners have spotters on the mountains and they know who's where and who's doing what. That's an awful feeling."
Rich said they also talked about contamination problems with cattle coming from south of the border as well.
He said building some type of barrier, whether it be a fence or a wall, just makes sense in that area of the state.
"Drug runners running the backroads of the county, running drugs up north through an unsecured border is killing the Mexican and creating a crime wave across New Mexico and this has got to stop. This is a senator's job," he said. "If it makes sense to build a wall, build a wall in that section."
Rich decided three years ago he wanted to run against Heinrich to help revitalize New Mexico.
"I was in Santa Rosa and there's a young woman passing through getting a cup a coffee," he said. "She said 'there's no future for me here, where should I go'. I would have loved to tell her where those opportunities are."

A bitter-sweet moment in cycling
Last weekend saw the world's best mudplugger racers converge in Biele, Luxembourg for the World Cyclocross Championships.
In the women's race Sanne Cant won after an epic battle with a now in-form and injury free Marianne Vos. The men's race went as per the bets, with Wout van Aert taking the top of the podium well clear of Mathieu van der Poel, who fell victim to mechanical problems in the challenging conditions.
As with other cycling disciplines Team GB has spent a long time having modest success in major competitions and more so with cyclocross, given that it is not an Olympic sport, so less funding from British Cycling is available.
However, young riders in team GB have begun to make their mark, with Evie Richards who became the under-23 world champion last year, and this year finished in third place.
L-R: Daniel Tullett, Tom Pidcock, Ben Turner (photo: ITV.com)
The real story of this year's World Championships was the men's junior championships in which the podium went to all Team GB riders - Gold to Tom Pidcock, Silver for Daniel Tullett, and Ben Turner rounding out the podium in Bronze position.
This was a wonderful result to see, and real indictment of the hard work and effort put in by the teenagers and their coaches.
Sadly, their achievements proved a bitter-sweet moement as they were still reeling after the death of their fellow training partner and promising cyclocrosser, Charlie Craig. Barely a week before the championships the 15-year old passed away suddenly in his sleep.
Charlie was a well-liked rider who was very talented in mountainbiking as well as cyclocross, and was an apprentice on the Great Britain Cycling Team's Rider Route. He won the cyclocross Under-16 National Trophy Series this season, and took silver at the Under-16 National Cyclocross Championships. The youngster from the Peak District was tipped to follow in the footsteps of older brother, Tom, and father Nick, who has been a huge force in mountainbiking and cyclocross for around 25 years.
Interviewing Nick Craig at 2014 Cyclocross Champs
I interviewed Nick a couple of years ago in Derby at the National Cyclo cross championships when he won the male veterans race. He then went on to compete outside of category the following day in the senior men's (under 40s) championships and came third from a large field that included many men half his age!
Despite his success, Nick was very humble about his achievements.
He did speak very proudly of his two boys who also competed in the National Championships and I could see the proud parent coming out, encouraging them to do their best in their cycle racing.
At the Macc Supacross, held during the Christmas break, I was quite impressed at how Nick, with his sons, rode the 16-mile journey from their home in Hayfield (High Peak), over to Macclesfield and compete (and get a podium place) at the event.
It was such a shock to hear about what has happened to Nick and his family. I feel so sorry, and can only imagine what they must be going through. It must be every parent's nightmare.
Seeing the three teenagers pull off such an achievement of a Team GB 1-2-3 on the global stage at the World Cyclocross Championships was so exciting, but at the same time very emotional. The young lads rode for Charlie, and they couldn't have given a better tribute to their dearly departed training buddy.
I hope that the Craig family are able to take a little comfort from this, though I realise right now they must be swimming in a sea of grief.
Here are the details of Charlie Craig's funeral, taken from Nick Craig's Instagram account
Charlie Craig - Rest in Peace
Charlie's Funeral will be held on Monday 6th February 2017 at St Mathews Church, Hayfield, High Peak at 2PM. All welcome. Family Flowers only please and donations to be made to Jeremy Unsworth Funeral Services, we are looking at various charities related to sudden death in the young. Dress code casual and colourful, cycling tops and bobble hats welcome for children and big kids X oh cow bells too.

Rapha Festive 500: Day 8


Over 75 family members and students gathered at Shaw Avenue Elementary School on Jan. 11 for the school's Parent University program. Family members were invited to an evening of exploration as they participated in workshops encompassing Google's G Suite for Education, formally known as Google Apps.
Parent University is a district-wide initiative that allows family members to gain a better understanding of what tools their children are using inside of the classroom. The goal is to create meaningful involvement experiences that will assist and empower them in helping their children reach their fullest academic, social and emotional potential.
Faculty members dressed in customized t-shirts with a special QR code on the back. Those that took a photo of the code on their smartphone, were directed to the district website. Teachers helped facilitate the workshops throughout the evening on topics such as Google Classroom, Google Docs, Google Slides and Google Forms and QR codes.
Students helped their family members navigate the laptops and provided support. At the end of the workshops, parents and children were able to work together to see first-hand how the tools are transforming learning inside of the classroom.

Public Relations & Thought Leadership for law firms - 020 7242 2286
Kelso Consulting's blog for lawyers
Solicitors (12)
Welcome to our blog where we provide marketing tips to help your law firm grow
#metoo: Defending the indefensible: would your press team know how to respond in times of crisis?
The day after The Lawyer Awards, 2012, the editorial team were invited to an event with a team of lawyers from an international law firm. The very same day The Lawyer issued a newsletter to more than 60,000 followers packed with sexual innuendo in reference to a former senior partner from that very same firm.
The former partner, well-known in the City, had been cautioned by police in a London hotel after a drug-fuelled sadomasochistic sex session in an exclusive London hotel.
The editorial decision not to name the partner was taken on the basis that this was a personal matter and the partner was no longer at the firm or practising law. No doubt it would have been a most-read story had we decided to run it.
I cannot help but think now that this was a mistake for a journalist, and a minor PR coup for the firm who could rightly claim to have silenced the most-read legal titles.

Lessons for every leader from Thomas Cook's PR disaster
A while ago I penned a white paper entitled "Why some companies turn a crisis into a PR disaster .... and how not to be one of them" based on then recent cases such as Toyota.
The main point was that such disasters typically don't come out of the blue and the effective PR tactics for handling them are well known.
Yet experienced and competent CEOs and their management teams had been able to create a PR disaster of far greater magnitude through inept handling of the communications issues.
I revisited the paper in the light of the recent sad case involving Thomas Cook and its handling of the publicity around the recent inquest into the deaths of two children while holidaying in Corfu a few years ago. I won't be changing the white paper as Thomas Cook also exhibited all the wrong-headed management thinking it warns against.

They don't tell you that all hell will break loose and it will all happen at once. All its fury brought down in one swoop and nothing to break its fall. If there was warning, perhaps, we might have braced ourselves, stockpiled, borrowed tomorrow's manna. But there is no warning for this sort of thing. The only thing it leaves in its path is a series of frozen memories: a boy on the top of a hill at sunset, a girl who holds you close while you sob, a friend who holds your cold hand in the room outside the courtroom, another friend who pulls back your hair while you heave everything you've eaten and felt in a year's worth of time.
We have grown accustomed to ashes and ashes, dust and dust. Everything we were made from and to everything we return. Dust. Man, you are dust.
I take comfort and joy in that. Comfort, because I know my place, and joy, because I know His.
Comfort, because these momentary afflictions are for a lasting glory, and joy, because nothing here is sacred unless it has been broken and poured out for me.
Let it do the work in you--all that brokenness, the fury of hell and its minions and the staggering mercy of the suffering brought on by car accidents and cancer--because how could it be worse? It could.
Let it shove in, shove around, hurt, hurt, hurt. Break the fallow ground, sift the confusion, let it do the work in you. Because if it does not, this hell, these sobs, these heaves, if this does not happen, then the heart you will be made of will be no heart at all.
To be what you are crafted to be today, all hell will break loose yesterday.
I swallow hard, writing that, because I am not so far from my own hells that I forget the agony of the flames licking my face, my heart, my mind, those I care for most. I am in some ways closer than ever--because I see now. I see these things that threaten to steal my joy and I name them, death, disappointment, divorce, disease. I name them because they are not subject to me (as I thought for so long they were), but they are subject to One who is higher and more grand than I can ever know.
The one who set the foundations of the earth while He thought of me. The One who breathed the creation of the world while He planned for me. The One who stretched the lines upon it while He purposed my boundaries. The One who laid the cornerstones of the earth while He knew that His own cornerstone would die for me.
All hell may break loose, Job, but we're taking it, you, me, and everyone we know. We're letting it come at us with everything, we're dressed for action, we know our place and we know our Maker.

Winter Getaway to Vermont With Porter Escapes | La Petite Noob | A Toronto-Based Fashion and Lifestyle Blog.
While most people are getting back into a routine and taking it easy after the holidays, Sabrina and I decided that we were due for another girl's trip and headed to snowy Vermont with Porter Escapes. Who's afraid of a little snow and cold? We certainly aren't and I'm so glad that we made the journey; Vermont in the winter is a beauty unlike anything I've ever seen, and I highly encourage everyone to put it on their travel bucket lists.
You guys know of my love for Porter Escapes from my last girl's trip to Washington, DC. I'm all about convenient travel, especially when it's a place that I've never visited before, and Porter Escapes is all about convenience.
Porter Escapes is an easy and straightforward approach to packaged vacations and offers an extensive variety of flights, hotels and activities to create a curated holiday just for you. I love how the service is paired with one of my favourites, Porter Airlines, and the whole experience offers a beautifully simple and refined way to plan a vacation with any budget. While I knew that I wanted to visit Vermont, I was unsure of the protocol since I'm not really a skier; Porter Escapes was definitely the way to go. From flight to hotel, everything was planned and set up.
The airport convenience. As a city dweller in a congested city like Toronto, the fact that the airport is just a short drive (Uber ride) from my condo is amazing and totally cuts down on the time spent preparing for travel on the day-of.
Check in is always a breeze. I prefer to travel using carry-on luggage only, so check in will literally take minutes for me - it's pretty amazing!
The Porter airport lounge is relaxing and accommodating, with complimentary snacks and hot and cold drinks. Myself I always like to load up on espressos and butter cookies.
The snacks don't end in the lounge - there's also complimentary hot and cold beverages, wine and beer plus an assortment of snacks on the flight too!
Porter airlines flies to Burlington, Vermont weekly, from December to March, with flights leaving on Tuesday and returning to Toronto on Saturday. The flight itself is only an hour, and flies by. Before we knew it, it was time to descent into Vermont and start our snowy adventure.
Our first stop was Topnotch Resort in beautiful Stowe, Vermont; about an hour's drive from the airport. This resort is breathtaking and captured our hearts right as we pulled up to the front entrance. Topnotch Resort prides itself on being an oasis that sits on 120 acres of land, with everything available from fine dining, modern tennis facilities, an incredible spa and an array of free activities to do around the resort. Sabrina and I managed to try almost everything that Topnotch Resort had to offer, and love every second of it!
The views from the resort are unbelievable - just so, so pretty. To be nestled in a winter wonderland, surrounded by snow-peaked mountains is truly a treat. We always had a view of the mountains, wether it be from exploring outdoors, during our meals or even from our room's window.
The resort itself is all interconnected, so you don't need to bundle up while strolling from your room, to the spa, to one of the restaurants. This came in especially handy on one stormy night. While outside was an orchestra of wind and snow, we were cozily headed to dinner in our slippers and sweaters, blissfully warm and unaware.
The dining options are delicious, and there truly is something for everyone. We found ourselves at The Roost for most lunches and dinners; we loved the chilled-out atmosphere, and their french onion soup. Flannel is the more upscale restaurant of the two, and where we found ourselves for every breakfast; the pancakes are amazing, and you can't beat munching on eggs benny while looking at the mountains.
Topnotch Resort offers a free shuttle service, to and from the Stowe Mountain Resort, and into the town of Stowe, Vermont. We took advantage of the shuttle to head into town and it was one of the highlights of the trip; Stowe, Vermont is just so beautiful. The free shuttle service is an amazing feature of Topnotch Resort, and one I would definitely encourage you to take advantage of.
There's a variety of activities available throughout the resort, all complimentary. I loved lacing up for the first time in years, and having a skate on the outdoor ice rink. There's also horse-drawn sleigh rides, which is just as beautiful as it sounds. Honestly, the activities are amazing and make me appreciate the beauty of winter on a whole other level.
I wanted to make special mention to the spa at Topnotch Resort, because it truly is something to experience. You guys know that I am the spa lady; I love spas, can't get enough of spas and can spend an entire day just relaxing at a spa (no joke.) The spa at Topnotch Resort is one of the best I've ever visited; not only for the amazing spa amenities and aesthetics, but also because of how nice and skilled everyone who works there is. I could ramble on about this spa for hours, but here's a few highlights that I wanted to mention.
Sabrina and I booked in for separate aromatherapy massages. As someone who goes for at least one massage a month, I have to say that this was one of the best massages that I've ever received. From being able to select which blend of oils you wanted for the massage, to the relaxing treatment that literally melted my stress away, to the chilled-out relaxation room afterwards, I loved it all.
The relaxation room includes complimentary snacks and refreshments, so you guys already know that I was in heaven; the way to my heart is definitely through snacks.
There are also a fitness centre and fitness classes available. Sabrina and I signed up for one of the yoga classes, and it was a great way to start out the day; relaxing, and suitable for all skill levels.
Needless to say, we both thoroughly enjoyed our time at Topnotch Resort. For two girls who don't ski or snowboard, there was plenty to do and explore and I could only imagine how amazing the property would be for someone who partakes in winter activities. Before we knew it, our stay had ended and we were on our way to the next adventure.
An outdoor, heated pool. We weren't brave enough to go in, but did notice quite a few of the guests enjoying it!
This huge solarium pool is available for guests!
The rooms are perfectly cozy with beautiful cabin vibes.
Stowe, Vermont. Almost too pretty to be real!
I just loved the buildings in Stowe, Vermont. So, so pretty.
Next on the agenda was a stay at The Essex Culinary Resort & Spa. Located outside of Burlington, Vermont, and about 20 minutes from the airport, The Essex is a picturesque property that has all that you could want for a relaxing getaway. The property itself is just gorgeous; picturesque, with gorgeous grounds to explore. We checked in right away, and immediately made ourselves at home.
Our room at The Essex was a light-filled sanctuary, complete with a sitting area and our very own fireplace. There were two queen beds and they were so soft - I'm talking sleeping on a pillow, soft! I could barely get out of bed in the morning, they were that comfortable. I just loved our room, and could have spend all day just lazily relaxing, while looking out to the snowy wonderland outside.
The Essex is Vermont's only culinary resort, and you can definitely tell that they take their food seriously. Ingredients are locally sourced, and their attention to detail is outstanding. We had a quick bite to eat at The Tavern for lunch, and ordered room service for breakfast. The breakfast was no joke and I will forever be dreaming about those waffles.
The Essex also offers a Cook Academy, where you can partake in a variety of different onsite cooking classes. Sabrina and I participated in the 'Bistro Favourites' class, and were able to feel like pros as we whipped up french onion soup, a beautiful steak dinner and crème brûlée. Truth be told, I'm pretty much a disaster in the kitchen and don't particularly love cooking, but Chef Lisa made this class a lot of fun! The class flew by as we were all busy preparing our meal, and were able to enjoy the fruits of our labour with a glass of wine.
The Essex Culinary Resort & Spa also offers a free shuttle service that we used not only to get back to the airport, but also to visit Burlington, Vermont. Burlington is another beautiful area of Vermont, with lots of shopping, eateries and cafés all within walking distance of each other. Sabrina and I spent our time at Monarch & The Milkweed, which is the cutest café in downtown Burlington, and walking around beautiful Church Street.
The Spa at The Essex is a beautiful addition to the property, and while we didn't indulge in any spa services, we were able to enjoy the huge indoor 25-yard pool. So fun!
I just couldn't get enough of this fireplace!
Breakfast in bed. I will always be dreaming about those waffles!

Downtown Burlington, Vermont is beautiful in the winter.
Before we knew it, we were being whisked back to the Burlington airport, and boarding a quick one hour Porter Airlines flight back to Toronto. I'm so grateful that I was able to experience Vermont in the winter, and definitely think that it should be on your bucket list; regardless of if you're a skier or not! The whole trip was perfectly planned and stress-free thanks to Porter Escapes. I already can't wait to go back.
What do you guys think? Have you ever been to Vermont? What are your thoughts on a snowy winter getaway? Let me know!
Thank you Porter Escapes for this incredible experience. All thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.
This looks like such a perfect Winter wonderland getaway! Beautiful photo diary too!
I happened to be lucky that my friend couldn't find a date for an event so he generously took me with him, which happened to be one of the best experience for me in recent times. I was lucky enough to see this place. If you get a chance to check these Chicago venues out please do so.

Protesters Continue to Target Ferguson Convenience Store in the Name of Michael Brown
Jesse Bogan, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, August 27, 2018
Protesters have been gathering outside of Ferguson Market and Liquor since Aug. 9 — the fourth anniversary of the police shooting death of Michael Brown Jr. — calling on the convenience store to take more ownership of its role in the saga and submit to a list of requests.
Brown had just left the store before the fatal skirmish with then-Officer Darren Wilson in the street near Canfield Green apartments in 2014. After the shooting, Ferguson police released a surveillance clip from the store indicating that Brown had stolen cigarillos and shoved a store clerk.
Protesters believe that the surveillance clip mischaracterized Brown and that the store should have done more to say so. Recent protests at Ferguson Market have been strong enough to close the store the first week, Jay Kanzler, an attorney for the store, said Saturday when the store was open again.
Police said there had been no arrests.
{snip} The protester group had the following requests:
Address Michael Brown Jr.'s character.
Close the store for three days on the anniversary of his death.
Create a scholarship in his name.
Find ways to interact and give back to the community.
Stop selling Dormin, a sleeping capsule, and other items that can be misused to get high.
Retain a black-owned security company to protect the store.
{snip}
Kanzler said the store ultimately agreed to all of the requests by Wednesday, other than closing the store for three days. Instead, he said, the store would close on the anniversary of Brown's death and provide a free barbecue the day before.
In a letter, with jointly agreed-upon language, to protest leaders that were at the Aug. 17 meeting, Ferguson Market said it recognized there was a "perception that it played a role in fostering negative opinions of Michael Brown Jr. post-August 9th," and it wanted to restore relationships with the community. "The Market understands that this perception has hurt the relationship it has enjoyed with many of its customers for years. It is hopeful that the Market can restore those relationships by taking meaningful steps to eliminate this perception."
But in recent days, Kanzler said, protest leaders told him that they weren't interested in going through with the agreement anymore and that the only thing that would resolve the matter was if the store was sold to them. He said formal offers hadn't been made.
Ferguson Market has disputed the documentary. On Saturday, Kanzler referred to it as "lies."
He said the store had been investigated by federal, state and local police. He said the store didn't parcel out footage. He said police subpoenaed nearly two weeks' worth of surveillance video leading up to incident — and assured that it would not be released.

No, it's NOT "fake news." It's Nazi propaganda.
Someone who's over there demolishes three whopping lies about "Ukraine," with visual evidence beyond dispute
This exemplary takedown of the "Ukraine" propaganda comes from Russell Bentley of Texas, now living in the Donbas (and some of whose interviews I've posted here):
There's a wise old maxim that says, "The first step on the road to wisdom is to call things by their right names." So, let's do that.
"Fake News" has been around a long while, The New York Sun's "Great Moon Hoax" of 1835 is a good (and amusing) example. An absolute falsehood and fantasy was published as fact to a credulous public who ate it up. This fake news story about the moon established The Sun as a major and highly profitable newspaper throughout the United States. Fifty years later, Hearst and Pulitzer were competing with each other for readership by publishing preposterous and sensationalist phony stories that became known as "yellow journalism", or as I simply call it, "urinalism". Because the media that publish such swill, and the hacks that write for them, are fit only for cleaning toilets. But those carefree days are long in the past, and fake news is no longer funny.
The practice of publishing false stories for financial or political motives has probably been around much longer than that, but today it has been elevated to a science and an art form, a black art form, that is truly one of the greatest threats to the future of Humanity in the world today. It is mass brainwashing on a global scale, abetted by science and technology, a war on human consciousness, a concentrated and deliberate attack on people's ability to see reality, to discern fact from lies, it is a war against the truth.
It has been correctly said that a respect for the truth is the basis for all morality, so a war against the truth is a war against morality, against all that is good and decent. Without an ability to see reality and detect lies, without a moral compass, people are literally no more than dumb beasts, mules to be worked and exploited by their owners, or sheep to be led to the slaughter. "Fake news" is a term a bit too cute and cozy for the black art of intentionally erasing the very intellect and morality that makes us human. It seeks to dumb down and degrade Humanity to the point to where people are no longer human. And that point is fast approaching, and for many, is already here.
I want to give three concrete and irrefutable examples of genuine nazi propaganda, produced by the West, (US and EU) about the war in Ukraine in just the last month, which not only attempt to cover up the crime of intentional mass murder attacks on civilians, but go further still and attempt to blame the actual victims for the crimes of US, EU and Ukrainian nazis. You will see by these three indisputable examples how disinformation is used as a truly evil weapon, how to defend against it, and how to destroy it with the truth.
Example #1 La Stampa (Italy) FRONT PAGE PHOTO - "THE CARNAGE"
The Italian propaganda rag La Stampa published the photo above on 15 March, 2022, showing a horrific scene of mass murder of civilians by illegal cluster munitions delivered to a city center by a ballistic missile. 24 civilians (including an entire family with 2 kids) were murdered, and dozens more gravely injured. The headlines in red across the top - "Russia kills 400 in Mariupol, Kiev prepares for Russian attack". Emblazoned across the photo, "The Carnage". The photo is real, and while the headlines are intentionally misleading, they are not outright lies. They don't have to be. The liars at La Stampa don't have to actually lie, most Europeans, like most US citizens are far too stupid to actually look beyond the headlines, and are easily deceived by nothing more than insinuations. And pro-nazi propagandists like those at La Stampa know it.
I could tell you that the photo actually shows the results of a Ukrainian Army war crime by a Tochka-U missile that was intentionally launched at Donetsk city center around 12:00 noon on Monday March 14th, that in fact it was intended to kill many times more than the 24 civilians who were murdered. I could tell you that the weekend before, fake ukrop troll accounts on Russian and other social media spread false stories that the DPR administration would be giving news about the status of DPR soldiers at 12:30 on March 14th at the Administration Building in central Donetsk, and wives, mothers, daughters of soldiers should come there then. This message was also sent by text message to specific phones of female family members of soldiers by spoofed DPR Administration accounts. I can confirm it, the daughter of one of my friends serving at the Front showed me the exact message on her phone. I could tell you that the missile was intercepted by DPR air defense, and only two cannisters of cluster bomb submunitions actually detonated when they hit about 500 meters from the Administration Building, on University Avenue in central Donetsk and had the missile reached its target the death toll would have been in the hundreds. Maybe you would believe me, maybe some would not. But I can show you two photos that prove it.
Me, standing on the same spot as the grieving husband in the La Stampa photo.
The beret and scarf of the grieving man's wife. She died here. I took this photo myself.
Now what do you think of La Stampa's work? Not only trying to cover up the intentional mass murder of civilians, but blaming the victims and their defenders for the very crimes of the nazis that La Stampa and Italy support. THIS is a black lie, a damned lie, literally the exact opposite of the truth. And the vast majority of Western citizens lap these lies up like flies eat shit. And those who swallow these lies are every bit as guilty as the liars themselves. And FYI, the photographer who took the heart-rending photo La Stampa stole was neither paid nor credited, or even asked permission to use his photo for this Italian version of nazi propaganda.
Well, you might say, it is an isolated incident, mistakes happen. It is neither isolated nor a mistake. The editors of La Stampa KNEW EXACTLY where the photo was from and what it showed, they used it intentionally to lie. And pseudo-journalist scumbag propagandists do the same thing in the USA...
EXAMPLE #2 NEW YORK POST - "RUSSIA CONTINUES BOMBARDMENT OF UKRAINIAN CITIES"
Again, but an even more blatant intention to mislead, to lie. The photo, again, is the aftermath of a Ukrainian missile attack on a civilian residential area of Donetsk, not far from my home in Petrovsky District. Another terrorist attack by ukrop nazis against civilian targets, blamed by US nazi propagandists on DPR and Russian defenders of the very civilians the ukrops attacked and murdered. Can I prove it? Well, yes I can. Here I am, in front of the exact same apartment building, hit by the ukrop nazi missiles. An honest headline would read, "Ukraine Continues Bombardment of Donbass Cities."
But these nazi propagandists do not stop at simply blaming their victims for their own crimes, that dirty double-cross is not as low as they can go, not by a long shot. They even, in a trans-Atlantic quadruple-cross conspiracy, connive to discredit truthful reports by adding their own logo to honest news and then announcing to the world that the report is not theirs. Behold...
On 8 April, 2022, a Tochka-U ballistic missile (same type used in the University Avenue attack in Donetsk, 3 weeks before) was fired at the Kramatorsk railway station as four thousand local civilians waited to evacuate the city before fighting broke out. 57 civilians were killed 109 wounded, in another wanton attack that had no military purpose, but fit hand in glove with the usual false flag terror attacks Ukraine has become well known for. The proof was and is overwhelming - There is zero doubt that the missile was a Tochka-U and that it came from Ukrainian-held territory. Ukraine continues to use Tochka-U missiles in the Donbass War, however the Donbass Republics have none, and Russia retired the last of theirs years ago, in 2019, in favor of the much more effective and accurate Iskander, which Russia has used in Operation Z.
Written on the side of the missile, in Russian, were the words "За Детей", "For The Kids". How stupid would someone have to be to believe that the Russians would not only commit a war crime against the ethnic Russian Ukrainian citizens from the pro-Russian part of Ukraine, but would blatantly add insult to injury and literally implicate themselves before the world by writing something so despicable, in Russian, for the world to see?
Furthermore, there are scientific methods of determining the direction a missile came from, including the shape of the crater and where the tail section lands in relation to the warhead. These methods are standard, simple, and used by all militaries around the world. And like the laws of physics, they apply everywhere, and in every situation the same. In the photo below, showing the trajectory of the missile fired at Kramatorsk, everything to the left of the red line is territory under the control of the Ukrainian Army.
For a full listing of all the evidence that proves the missile, S/N Ш91579 was fired by the 19th Ukrainian Missile Brigade, based near Dobropolia, some 45 kilometers from Kramatorsk, see this excellent article by former US Marine officer and UN Weapons Expert Scott Ritter. There are plenty of other articles too, (HERE, HERE, and HERE) listing the proof and indications that it was a ukrop false flag attack on their own civilians. Such as the following:
1 - The "Smell Test". WHY would Russians attack ethnic Russian civilians in an area known for its broad support of Russia?
2 - The fake "For The Kids" inscription would be the LAST thing Russians would ever do. Rocket troops are among the most highly trained and disciplined in any army. If the Russians were going to commit a war crime against civilians, do you really think they'd sign their work for the world to see?
3 - The physical evidence proves the trajectory of the missile, and that trajectory points directly to Dobropolia, deep inside Ukrainian held territory, where the 19th Ukrainian Missile Brigade is based. It is impossible for the Russians to have fired a missile from there.
4 - The Russians retired their aged stock of Tochka-U missiles years ago in favor of the Iskander, which they now use.
5 - The Ukrainians still have and use Tochka-U missiles, and have done so on multiple occasions throughout the 8 year Donbass War.
6 - The S/N of the Tochka-U fired at Kramatorsk is in the same series and numerically very close to S/N's of other Tochka-U missiles also known to have been fired by Ukrainian armed forces during the Donbass War.
7 - The exact S/N found on the missile in Kramatorsk was recorded in official documents as having been transferred from the USSR to Ukraine in 1991.
8 - There is zero evidence that would support any theory other than a Ukrainian false flag attack on the civilians of Kramatorsk. None.
That's a tough nut for the West's pro-nazi propagandists to crack. All the evidence PROVES they did it, beyond any reasonable doubt, and there is no credible evidence of any sort that would support an alternative theory. So what do they do? Simply make shit up, of course, as usual, but with a twist. This time, they make up fake news about themselves, and try to palm it off as Russian produced "disinfo".
Thus, we see real, first-person, on the scene videos of the real aftermath of the Kramatorsk attack, video of the real S/N, all edited together, but with a fake BBC intro and logo added, and then spread all over the internet with the caption, "Look! The BBC finally told the truth for once!!!" So the professional liars can subsequently "debunk" the fake "BBC" vid, along with all the real facts the actual real videos contain. And then literally ALL Western propaganda outlets smear the story about the fake vid all over the web. The search phrase "BBC fake video missile Kramatorsk" brings back 55,000 links on Google, 24 million on Bing Search, and a whopping 25 million results on Yahoo Search. The Western propagandists claim the Russians added the fake BBC logo, but why would Russia discredit real proof of what happened by adding a fake BBC logo. The BBC has a well-earned reputation as one of the most mendacious media outlets in the world, their lies are legion. So why would Russia discredit itself and its own compelling evidence by adding a fake logo of known propagandists? Answer - they didn't.
If the above is not enough for you to see a pattern, an intentional policy, of gaslighting, obfuscation and outright lies, then you are already too far gone, you are already allergic to, and an enemy of, the truth. Do not collaborate with liars by accepting their lies uncritically, without the closest examination. Do not be stupid, gullible or intellectually lazy. The stakes are much too high. Those who witlessly and willingly accept obvious lies as the truth are every bit as pernicious as the liars themselves. Don't do it!
An understanding of the simple fact that modern Western media are the product and descendants of Joseph Goebbels and Ed Bernays is the appropriate foundation for regarding anything Western media presents as fact. Do not expect the BBC to "tell the truth for once", do not expect paid and pathological liars to tell the truth, even once. Do not expect the leopard to change its spots. Understand they are the enemies of truth and morality, the enemies of Humanity, your enemies, who do everything in their power to deceive and confuse you, in order to enslave and exterminate you. Respect for the truth is the basis of all morality. Respect and defend it!
ADDENDUM -
The List of Logical Fallacies is also an excellent primer of modern propaganda techniques. But when used by professional liars, intentionally, they are no longer "fallacies", they are lies, attacks on truth and reality, and on human consciousness.
Fritz Hippler explained the secret of modern propaganda, and he would know. He was the Chief of Filmmaking at the Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda during the years of Nazi Germany. As he put it, "The secret of propaganda is to simplify complex or complicated things, to make them as simple as possible, so even less ingenious men can understand what I mean. And then, repeat it, repeat it, repeat it every day. That's the secret of modern propaganda - simplify and repetition." (You should really click on the link, and hear and see him say it himself. He's very convincing.)
PLEASE SUPPORT THE TRUTH BY PUBLISHING AND SHARING THIS ARTICLE WHEREVER YOU CAN! THANKS!

Excellent article, thank you! I don't mean to be obtuse but I don't understand how the author standing in front of those buildings proves anything? What am I missing? Please fill me in. Because I know what we're being fed by the msm is lies all lies but I just don't get that part of the article - and I want to share it but I'm pretty sure others will ask my same question. I'm sure the light will go on when someone explains it to me - thank you!

I had something in mind I didn't want to tell you about until I'd made it happen…but now since it's not going anywhere I guess there's no harm. I wanted to join the army; it's something I've been seriously considering for a long time. Honestly, that's the main reason I followed the consultant out here, because he's a vet with a lot of connections. While we were out walking, I shared my plan with him, he shot it down, and I would've had to be stubborn to the point of stupid not to listen to his advice.


Would endorse everything said about the S304 so far. I'm a total photographic numpty but I've taken some really terrific shots with mine. Very simple and intuitive to use, yet feels like a 'real' camera. Good download speeds to PC too. Been very economical on batteries so far but I'd agree with Jester2K II, get a good size (128MB+) XD card.

Spirit of the Music ~ George Allen "Buddy" Miles - 1947-2008
Even though he caught his biggest break when he played drums with Jimi Hendrix's Band of Gypsys, Buddy Miles had a long history of playing and recording. He was a founding member of The Electric Flag, The Buddy Miles Express, The Buddy Miles Band, and recorded with Carlos Santana, John McLaughlin, and Mike Bloomfield. His signature song, "Them Changes," is a rock classic. Many would know his voice as the California Raisins lead singer on "I Heard It Through the Grapevine."
Born in Omaha, NE, Buddy lived many of his teen years in Sioux Falls, attending Axtell Park Junior High and Washington High School, which now houses the SDRRMA Museum. His dad, George Frances Miles, played bass with Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Charlie Parker. Classmates recall that Buddy, who was named after drummer Buddy Rich, had drumsticks with him at all times and played on everything.
Buddy and friends loved listening to groups playing at the Peppermint Lounge, which later housed Ming Wah. According to music historian Ken Mills, Buddy was caught stealing from a vending machine. Initially slated to go to the state training school in Plankinton, he ended up in Boys Town in Omaha. A staff member there took an interest in Buddy's passion for music, taking him to local venues. Wilson Pickett heard Buddy play, and when Miles was released from Boys Town, Pickett hired him.
The Ink Spots hired Buddy when he was 15. Soon after he met Jimi Hendrix at a show in Montreal, Canada. The two later jammed at Stephen Stills' Malibu home. Buddy joined The Electric Flag both as their drummer and sometimes as their lead singer.
Toward the end of his career, Miles moved to Austin, TX. It was there at the age of 60 he died from congestive heart failure. The day before, Buddy had listened to Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood playing "Them Changes" at Madison Square Garden through his cell phone. In 1995, the American music magazine Seconds asked Buddy how he would like to be remembered. His reply: "The baddest of the bad. People say I'm the baddest drummer. If that's true, thank you, world."

Community Review: "Pascal's Triangle Revisited" (1.25)
By Sean Gandert | May 24, 2010 | 11:00am
Last week's episode of Community in many ways felt like the season finale, not just because it covered the college's finals but also because it featured the sort of large-scale events that are usually only brought into play during finales. Señor Chang being knocked down to student Chang (his first name hasn't been mentioned yet, has it?) was the type of unexpected move that isn't normally deployed in just any random episode. As much as Community is a show that constantly questions our basic assumptions about sit-coms, for the most part it remains a party to the greater constant of television shows: things return to how they were at the end of the episode. We're fine with major events at the end of a season because they show us what the new status quo will be next year, but other than that it's rare for a story arc on any show to have an effect on more than just the next episode or two.
But while "English as a Second Language" shook things up, it failed to resolve an issue brought up by the prior episode: what's going on between Jeff and Britta. It's fine for us to be left on a romantic curveball on the last episode, but on the second to last? That's just strange storytelling. So while classes have wound down and summer plans are being made, "Pascal's Triangle Revisited" seeks to resolve the season's romance plots in a big, glorious manner and give us a taste of what to expect next season. Also: more John Oliver, whose absence has gone largely unremarked by the show's characters, which seemed rather odd given Community's normal self-awareness.
The big news, and with it the big fake out, of Pascal's Triangle Revisited" comes when Annie reveals to Jeff that she plans on leaving Greendale with her boyfriend, everyone's favorite stereotype of obnoxious college pseudo-hippies. The assumption is that she'd be leaving the cast except for occasional guest appearances because that's how TV shows work. This is clearly supposed to be the show's other Big Change at the end of the season (the first being Chang's scandal), and would be pretty unfortunate if it was in fact true. Annie's character adds a lot to the cast and of everyone she probably has the most open future—seeing where college takes her should be part of the fun. But she returns at the last minute and—though it's a little bit forced—throws herself right into Jeff's waiting arms.
Speaking of Jeff, he's spent the entire episode being tossed between Prof. Slater and Britta, both of whom want him back. The pair spends most of the episode undercutting one another with catty remarks until Britta, given the floor at Greendale's final dance (the fifth in one season, apparently), confesses her love for Jeff. Then Slater follows suit, and Jeff runs out, which brings us back to Annie again.
So it turns out that the episode's real Big Change is that Jeff and Annie are now together and it's a match that, while perhaps less immediately obvious than the Jeff/Britta thing, is a lot more enjoyable for everyone watching the show. Ever since the pair spent more together on the debate team it's been something we've been waiting to see more from, perhaps less because of the characters themselves than that Joel McHale and Alison Brie have real chemistry together. And while a Jeff/Britta love arc seems like it could lead to a tiresome second season for the show, Jeff/Annie promises to lead to much more unexpected places.
And aside from all of this business with romances, the episode still spent a fair amount of time with the other men in the cast and working out their issues. Troy wants to move in with Abed, who thinks it's a terrible idea, and instead ends up rooming with Pierce due to cookie-inspired wisdom. Can't say it was an amazing side-plot, but it's a nice set-up for next season.
So here we are at the end of the show's first season and, while it had some rocky episodes early on, Community has grown into my favorite comedy currently on television. Its inspired understanding of traditional television storytelling and anarchic rule-breaking has kept the show from ever growing stale; it's clear from the season's ending that if anything, it's getting less conventional as it continues. Here's to you, Community, may you keep your freak flag flying high and continue trying action homages, Goodfellas parodies and giving a character stars for facial hair for no particularly good reason. We'll see you again in a few months.
Stray Observations:
"It's called chillaxing, duh." All duhs should be prefaced with nonsensical non-words.
"How many dances is this school going to have?" "Five. If you go to them all you get one of these."
"Amazing. He's like an evil genie."
-Tranny dance. Who wouldn't want to partake?
"Number one community college hackey sack team in the nation."
"Finally, a last day at school plot twist."
-Which one is big boobs and which one is medium boobs? Pretty sure Troy's not black boobs, in any case.
"I mean sex, in case the lingo hasn't made it to the states."
"My friendship with Abed is a giant cookie!"
-The name of one of the Tranny competition's nominees: Miss Danielle Harmon
"Bring Conan back!"

More people watch the Super Bowl than vote in a Presidential election.
This fact stopped me in my tracks, and I wondered if the tremendous popularity of football could be used as a way to teach STEM. I took on this challenge with journalist Allen St. John when we wrote a book called Newton's Football, a new title from Random House.
What did we find in terms of science at work on the gridiron? Surprisingly, a lot, and many of the topics fall under the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Let me share a few items, which might be useful to you in your classroom.
We discovered that a woodpecker pecks about 12,000 times a day at an incredible 20 times a second. So why don't they get concussions?
When exploring this, Allen and I found three reasons.
A scientist would call this a scaling phenomenon. While that might sound like a lofty science concept, it's something that we all understand instinctually. Drop your cell phone from your desk, and what's likely to happen? You'll be frightened, but the phone will be fine. But if you drop your laptop from the same height, you'll probably have to take a trip to the Apple store. Because of its small size, a woodpecker can survive forces that would kill a human.
The woodpecker's brain is turned 90 degrees in comparison to human brains, which means the force is distributed over a greater area. More area means less force is directly applied to the brain tissue. Here is an opportunity to teach the concept of pressure. Pressure is equal to the amount of force on an area. This wider distribution of force is the trick behind lying on a bed of nails. The multiple points of many nails spread the force of your body weight over a wide area, while we know that, with enough pressure, a solitary nail can pierce even the toughest tire.
Woodpeckers survive those 12,000 pecks a day because their brains fit snugly inside their skulls. The lack of space restricts the brain's movement. A concussion results from the collision of the brain with the inside of the skull. If there is no place for the brain to move, there is less chance for a concussion.
Now, the woodpecker model might be of limited value in creating new helmets for the NFL, but that little bird makes for a highly engaging exercise to teach science concepts that might otherwise be boring.
One of my favorite toys, often found on the desks of business professionals, is something called a Newton's Cradle. In it, five silver balls are suspended with clear plastic thread so that they hover above the desk's surface in a row. If you move one ball on one side and let it collide with the others, it causes the last ball to fly upward. This is momentum at work. The fact that the last ball flies when you move the first one demonstrates a property of momentum -- it is conserved. This is just a fancy way to say that the momentum in equals the same momentum out.
If you want to get your students excited about momentum, use football.
Momentum is a term we hear all the time. But from a scientific point of view, it describes motion. It is given the formula p = mv, which means that momentum (p) is equal to the mass (m) multiplied by the velocity (v). If we're talking about football players, this number would be their weight (converted to mass), and how fast they run the 40-yard dash, which is recorded in the NFL Scouting Combine. Both of these values can be found on the web, and can be a fun exercise in finding out which player can generate the most momentum.
Allen and I did this calculation for the book and found that Aaron Gibson was the master of momentum. He weighs 386 pounds and can run the 40-yard dash in 5.35 seconds, and that results in more momentum than any NFL draft pick in the last decade.
Try this on for size: if Aaron Gibson was running at full speed, hit another player that was 200 pounds and transferred all of his momentum to this player, the lighter player would fly away at 21 m.p.h. I can't think of a more exciting way to describe momentum than this!
And you can build from this exercise. Find out how many smaller players it would take to stop Aaron. When two or more players are running together, their momentum can be combined. Add up how many guys the other team would need to match Aaron Gibson's momentum.
So you can see how a boring lecture about momentum might turn exciting. And even better, a discussion about momentum falls under NGSS. Who knew that the NFL and the NGSS were STEM allies?
There are other engaging science stories to get across concepts that might otherwise make students' eyes glaze over. You can create a lesson on the biology of digestion (in a chapter we call "How to Turn a Big Mac into a Linebacker"), evolution (a discussion of Darwin's finches that parallels the evolution of the game), and engineering design (how scientists and engineers think differently about the league's concussion problem and how that might affect the design of a better football helmet).
Can football be used to teach STEM? Yes, and in an engaging and -- well -- impactful way!

Q: all possible moves of all players in a simple game
i have 4 possible moves (up, down, left, right)
for each player
public struct Point
{
    public int x;
    public int y;
}
Point[] directions = new Point[]
{
    new Point() {x=0,y=1 },
    new Point() {x=0,y=-1 },
    new Point() {x=1,y=0 },
    new Point() {x=-1,y=0 }
};

i have n players, for example 3 but this number is not constant.
i need enumerate all possibile moves into an array.
for example:
    player1: up, player2:up, player3:up
    player1: up, player2:up, player3:left
    player1: up, player2:up, player3:right
    player1: up, player2:up, player3:down
    player1: up, player2:left, player3:up
    ....
    ....

what is the best way to enumerate all possible moves of all players into an array?
the resulting array must be:
item[0] = {up,up,up};
item[1] = {up,up,down};
item[2] = {up,up,left};
item[3] = {up,up,right};
item[4] = {up,down,up};
....

please, can you help me?

A: Let's say you have 4 players and each has a 4 possible moves. A total of 256 combinations. n players, 4 moves => 4^n
Map your moves to numbers
Up - 0,
Down - 1,
Left - 2,
Right - 3 Then convert the 256(base of 10) to base of 4 and you will get 10000. So Iterate from 0 to 3333 (in base of 4) and extract each number place and map accordingly for each player.
In example a number of 2330 would mean - 1st player - Left, 2nd player - right, 3rd - right, 4th player - up

A: Using this enum:
public enum Direction
{
    Up,
    Down,
    Right,
    Left
}

Try to iterate over the enum values using Enum.GetValues Method and use this Linq SelectMany overload(which lets you to create every combination out of two IEnumerables items) to create all the combinations:
var options = Enum.GetValues(typeof(Direction)).Cast<Direction>()
              .SelectMany(firstValue => Enum.GetValues(typeof(Direction)).Cast<Direction>(),
                 (firstValue, secondValue) => new { firstValue, secondValue})
              .SelecyMany(firstValues => Enum.GetValues(typeof(Direction)).Cast<Direction>(),
                 (firstValues, lastValue) => new {firstValues.firstValue, firstValues.secondValue, lastValue}).ToList();

You can also replace the last SelectMany to create a 3 length array as the list item instead the annonymous type, just replace the last line with:
(firstValues, lastValue) => new Direction[] {firstValues.firstValue, firstValues.secondValue, lastValue}).ToList();

A: Let's say you have an enum like
enum Move
{
    Up,
    Down,
    Left,
    Right
}

A way is to iterate an integer and convert this integer to the base 4. The result will be:
0000 --> 0001 ---> 0002 ---> 0003 --> 0010 --> ... ---> 3333
You can take every digit of the numbers and cast it to the enum value. Here is the resulting method:
private static List<Move[]> GetPossibleMoves(int NumberOfPlayers)
{
    int Combination = 0;
    List<Move[]> PossibleMoves = new List<Move[]>();
    while (true)
    {
        List<int> Digits = IntToString(Combination, new char[] { '0', '1', '2', '3' })
            .PadLeft(NumberOfPlayers, '0')
            .Select(D => Convert.ToInt32(D.ToString()))
            .ToList();

        if (Digits.Count() > NumberOfPlayers)
        {
            break;
        }
        else
        {
            Move[] Moves = new Move[NumberOfPlayers];
            for (int Player = 0; Player < NumberOfPlayers; Player++)
            {
                Moves[Player] = (Move)Digits[Player];
            }
            PossibleMoves.Add(Moves);
        }
        Combination++;
    }
    return PossibleMoves;
}

As helper to convert to the base 4 you can take the method from Dirk Vollmar at this question:
private static string IntToString(int value, char[] baseChars)
{
    string result = string.Empty;
    int targetBase = baseChars.Length;

    do
    {
        result = baseChars[value % targetBase] + result;
        value = value / targetBase;
    }
    while (value > 0);

    return result;
}

The result will be:

Up, Up, Up, Up
Up, Up, Up, Down
Up, Up, Up, Left
Up, Up, Up, Right
Up, Up, Down, Up
...
Right, Right, Right Right
