Musicians reflect on venue By Deborah Medenbach Published: 2:00 AM – 01/05/12

PAWLING — The Town Crier Cafe on Route 22 will shutter its doors at the end of February.

Top musical acts from the folk, rock and country music circuits performed in the cozy venue, which has moved to new quarters two other times in its 40-plus-year history.

“Our lease expired, and the landlord has been actively trying to sell the building,” explained founder Phil Ciganer, who brought national acts to small spaces, fed audiences gourmet vegetarian fare and recognized up-and-coming talents who progressed from open mic nights to opening acts to national figures.

“I grew up going to the Town Crier when it was in Beekman and saw amazing music there,” said musician Sloan Wainwright, who credits Ciganer with helping to start her career.

Members of her extended family of musical luminaries have also graced the stage at Town Crier. Pete Seeger and his musical siblings have performed there, as have Arlo Guthrie, Tom Paxton, John Sebastian, Natalie Merchant, David Bromberg, Ricky Skaggs and Jesse Winchester.

Ciganer plans to reopen the Town Crier in a new location.

John Hall, whose national reputation was established as a musician in the band Orleans long before he became a congressman, said, “I hope it won’t be closed forever.”

Bankside Property – A Guide To The Area & History

Filed in winchester palace Comments Off

If you contact good Bankside estate agents these days, they’re going to have a plethora of state of the art contemporary properties on their books. So it may surprise you to know this is actually one of the very oldest parts of London and began life as an ancient settlement millions of years ago. This guide will give you a fascinating glimpse into the area’s history; its current attractions; and the type of Bankside property you’ll likely to find today.

Ancient History to Victorian times

In recent times, there has been a wealth of important archaeological finds unearthed from beneath Victorian buildings. Some of the areas archaeological treasures have been dated up to half a million years old. the very first London Bridge was even older; it is thought to have been built two million years ago and until 1750 it was the only way to cross the Thames on foot. the very first prison was also built locally in Clink Street – so this is where the expression, in the clink comes from, meaning in prison. the dedicated museum standing on the site of the old prison earned a place on the hit paranormal investigation TV show, Most Haunted. it was featured along with nearby Tower Bridge on a Halloween special centred on the notorious Victorian serial killer, ‘Jack-the-Ripper’.

Famous VIP Residents & Visitors

None other than William Shakespeare lived in Southwark at one time and his plays were of course mounted at the local Globe and Rose theatres. Fellow playwright Ben Jonson was also employed by the Globe and diarist Samuel Pepys witnessed the Great fire of London in 1666 from a local Bankside tavern. Charles Dickens immortalised aspects of Bankside in his novel ‘Little Dorret’ and Queen Elizabeth was known to like to visit. by the 1800s, one of the most important local activities was leather crafts, which you can still see today reflected in street names such as Tanner’s Yard, Leathermarket court and Tanner’s Street.

Some important Bankside property postcodes are SE1, SE5, SE16 and SE17; you should also remember the names London Bridge, Borough, Tower Bridge, Shad Thames, Rotherhithe, Elephant & Castle, Southwark, Waterloo, Bermondsey and of course, Bankside. Local Bankside estate agents are happy to tell you substantial local regeneration was helped no end by world-class cultural centres, which you can easily reach by strolling over the Millennium Bridge. the area is home to the Tate Modern, and the Bankside art gallery, which hosts the Royal Watercolour Society and Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers. Shakespeare’s London can be visited at the famous Globe Theatre and a nearby exhibition dedicated to the Rose Theatre. along from the Clink Street Prison Museum you’ll find Winchester Palace, famous for its medieval round ‘rose’ window. the whole family will love the ever-popular London Dungeons in Tooley St, SE1, and do also take in the beautiful Southwark Cathedral. Finally, London’s gourmets are justifiably proud of Borough food market and the many world-class restaurants in the neighbourhood, which pop up often in London’s Time Out magazine.

Bankside estate agents will be able to show you contemporary loft living conversions, offering splendid penthouse views of London, for example, at the Jam Factory on Green Walk. there is a little ‘City Village’ created by Bermondsey Street (SE1), full of superb quality restaurants, cafes and bars. This is an area where there are both warehouse conversions and better quality new builds. Newer developments on new Globe Walk have excellent riverside views, from which you’ll see St Paul’s Cathedral. You’ll also find interestingly ‘socially minded’ luxurious 2 and 3 bed new builds in Bermondsey Square, SE1. Generally speaking, there is not a shortage of 1 bed properties, and often you’ll get a terrific amount of space, sometimes with mezzanine levels. if you’re looking for two and three beds, this is another good area: the standards can often be particularly high. Ask Bankside estate agents to show you property benefitting from the better views, ample floor space and natural light. Expert agents will have no trouble finding you this type of Bankside property in a prime location for both transport links and local attractions.

United Kingdom Bed and Breakfasts

Filed in bed and breakfast in winchester uk Comments Off

If you’ve ever gone driving in the English countryside, you’ve probably seen signs along the road saying Bed and Breakfast Vacancies. these signs dot the roadways where bed and breakfasts are one of the best ways to get a real glimpse of English life in differing areas of the country.

Bed and breakfasts in the United Kingdom are located in private homes, for the most part. you live with an English family, share their home and accept their hospitality. there are as many different types of bed and breakfasts as there are types of U.K. citizens If you’re looking for a holiday destination in which to relax and participate in leisure activities, they are plentiful in the coastal holiday spots. If instead you are on a long road trip and need a night’s respite, those can be found easily as well.

Although the United Kingdom bed and breakfast doesn’t usually boast some of the bigger hotel amenities, like full restaurants and bars, it does offer a more intimate look into the everyday lives of the English people as they go about their days. Also, you needn’t worry about quality. U.K. tourist officers anonymously visit thousands of bed and breakfasts. They grade the quality, cleanliness, food and comfort and publish a guide for visitors.

The breakfast part of the stay might be your favorite. Many U.K. bed and breakfasts are located in farmhouses on working farms. Here the breakfasts are made with the working man in mind and will fill you up. It may include eggs and bacon, fried bread and/or potatoes and tomatoes. Local specialties, like black pudding, are and added treat. If you prefer, continental breakfasts of cereal, toast, coffee or tea and juice is always available.

Even London, one of the largest and busiest cities in the world has plenty of great bed and breakfasts for your holiday pleasure. London hotels are marvelous, but the romantic appeal of a European bed and breakfast has been the focus of many a book and film as ideal getaway spots. And indeed, they are very cozy, romantic and beautiful. No matter how lush and luxurious a hotel, it doesn’t offer the personal touch and home-like feel of a bed and breakfast. If you’re looking for a comfortable retreat with home-cooked meals in between your busy site-seeing ventures, a London Bed and Breakfast should be on your list of possible accommodations.

The Irish Sea coast is another wonderful holiday destination. Blackpool is one of the most popular of these. Here the bed and breakfasts are diverse and you can find one to meet any requirement you may have. Many are themed and have daily activities for the kids, allowing you some time off. Blackpool has become a popular gay and lesbian vacation spot and you can find bed and breakfasts that cater to them. The newest trend is weddings in Blackpool. although the B&B’s aren’t usually large enough for this type of event, they’re great for the overnight guests attending. It would be a nice idea to look up the B&B’s in the neighborhood of your wedding facility and give you guests a list for their choice of accommodations.

Going to Dublin? there are some find bed and breakfasts throughout Ireland, too. whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway or you’re going on yet another business trip, Dublin bed and breakfasts have something for everyone. Each has its own distinct style and many offer space for events, such as reunions, weddings and business meetings. most are more reasonable in cost than a city hotel or motel.

So if you’re Europe-bound and intend to spend a few days or more in the United Kingdom, you’ll want to research the bed and breakfasts near your chosen destinations. you won’t be disappointed

WINCHESTER INVIATIONAL: Carrollton survives showdown with Greenfield-NW, 52-42

Filed in winchester 22 Comments Off

WINCHESTER — Just two days after playing a physical game against Routt, the Carrollton boys’ basketball team played a rougher game against Greenfield-Northwestern and came away with a 52-42 win in the opening round of the Winchester Invitational Tournament Saturday.

“We didn’t expect anything less,” Carrollton coach Jeff Krumwiede said. “when we found out Wednesday night at the seed meeting that we had drawn Greenfield, we were very concerned about the fact that: A) they are talented; B) they are well coached; and C) if they are ranked lower than we are, they are going to be motivated. so it was a concern for us, and we were fortunate enough to survive.”

Carrollton was shooting double-bonus free throws before the first quarter was over as Greenfield-Northwestern racked up 10 fouls in the first eight minutes.

“We don’t go out saying we are going to have a game where there is going to be 30 fouls,” Krumwiede said. “sixty free throw shots. The officials don’t like it, the fans don’t like it and the coaches don’t like losing players to disqualification.”

The two teams combined for 47 fouls in all. Carrollton starters Jordan Harr and Cody Kraut fouled out in the fourth quarter, as did Greenfield’s Bubba McEvers.

“That was a typical Tigers/Hawks intense battle,” Greenfield-Northwestern coach Joe Pembrook said. “There is really no way to sugar-coat it. it was intense. We didn’t play with a lot of heart and desire on Thursday night. We worked on that yesterday in practice and I thought our kids brought the intensity, (Carrollton) did as well, and that’s what you should expect from a great rivalry like that.”

The two teams combined for 60 free throws. Carrollton was 19-for-32 at the line while Greenfield-Northwestern was 20-for-28.

“We executed, and they did as well,” Pembrook said. “We missed some front ends of one-and-ones that kind of hurt us, but my hat’s off to Carrollton as they executed a little better than we did down the stretch.”

Carrollton lost Joey Coonrod midway through the second quarter when the senior came out of the bottom of a loose-ball pileup with blood streaming down the side of his face. Coonrod cut his head right above his eyebrow.

“We have an extra uniform for blood situations,” Krumwiede said. “then we started stripping the freshmen. The unfortunate part about that is we only had 12 players dress and only 11 available because Cody Leonard is still out with the sore shoulder, so we didn’t have a whole lot more uniforms to go through. We would have been wearing Winchester Wildcat white if it had gone much deeper.”

Coonrod laughed when asked about the jersey situation.

“There probably were a few other players that would have given up their jerseys for me,” Coonrod said. “They are good teammates.”

Coonrod was out for the remainder of the first quarter, but returned at the start of the second quarter with his head bandaged, wearing jersey number 40. he was in and out of the game throughout the second half as the bleeding continued, and started the fourth quarter wearing jersey number 30.

Coonrod required 13 stitches after the game; his status for Tuesday’s game is uncertain. his status for Saturday’s game was certain: he was determined to play.

“I thought I needed to come back in,” Coonrod said. “it was a close game, and it wasn’t like I couldn’t walk or anything.”

Coonrod finished with nine points, including a big 3-point shot at the 6:50 mark in the third quarter that increased Carrollton’s lead to 41-22. The Tigers were forced to play catch-up for the rest of the game.

Krumwiede said he was pleased with the way his players responded with Coonrod out of the game.

“all the times Joey was in the locker room with the trainer, I thought our guys really stepped up and played well,” the coach said.

Carrollton held a two-point edge at 13-11 by the end of the first quarter, then slowly started to pull away in the second. Greenfield tried to claw its way back in, and got as close as 23-20, but never any closer.

Carrollton outscored Greenfield 14-11 in the second quarter and widened the gap by outscoring the Tigers 16-11 in the third quarter. Each team scored nine points in the fourth quarter.

Carrollton’s Tyler Watson and Luke Palan each scored 12 points to lead the Hawks. Isaac Masters led the Tigers with 11 points.

“I can’t say enough about Luke Palan,” Krumwiede said. “he is the one that hit the jump shots and took care of the basketball. he played solid defense and emerged and matured. he is a freshman who has been getting some varsity time and having some spots of excellent play.”

Carrollton will move on to play Griggsville-Perry in the championship bracket Tuesday. Greenfield-Northwestern (5-9) will play Western on Wednesday in the consolation bracket.

A Guide to Southern California Flea Markets

Filed in rosebowl uk Comments Off

Vacationers love Southern California because there’s so much to see and do. But with so many attractions to choose from, many travelers never get around to hitting the flea markets. Southern California has some of the best in the world. So whether you are a serious collector, or just looking for a fun souvenir, chances are you’ll find something cool. You’ll also experience a slice of local culture and maybe even see a star or two.

If you’re here on the weekend, you’re in luck, because there’s a flea market somewhere every Sunday. Some are good for an hour or so, others can take most of the day. Lather up with sunscreen, bring some cash, and get ready to bargain.

Housed in the parking lot of the Pasadena football stadium, the Rose Bowl Flea Market is the most popular one in Los Angeles. It takes place on the second Sunday of the month. On nice days, more than 20,000 people might show up. there are usually about 2,500 vendors selling everything from old record albums to vintage clothes to fine antiques. there are a couple of food stands, so you can grab a bite and keep shopping.

If you’re an avid collector, come early. your admission fee will vary based on when you arrive. Gates open at 5AM, but a lot of stands don’t set up that early. Admission starts at $20 and goes down until the box office closes at 3 o’clock.

Many of the Rose Bowl vendors specialize in one type of antique or collectible. and you can find almost anything here. In addition to the expected, you’ll find old typewriters, musical instruments, paintings, rugs, jewelry, old handbags, and more.

You can — and should — do a little bargaining here, but don’t come looking for steals.

The Long Beach Outdoor Antique Market, which takes place on the third Sunday of each month, is held in Veterans Stadium. It’s been going strong since starting in 1982 and has more than 800 dealers. It’s good for old furniture, vintage clothes, rugs, lamps, and other items for the home. as one of the biggest markets on the west coast, it’s worth the drive.

Trend-setters and fashionistas will enjoy the Melrose Trading Post in the parking lot of Fairfax High School. It takes place every Sunday. about 3,000 people show up to look for vintage clothing, alternative music, 1970s stuff, and kitschy items. Live music and a few food trucks round out the scene. Young celebrities and set designers often visit.

The Santa Monica Airport hosts the Santa Monica Outdoor Antique & Collectible Market on the first and fourth Sundays. the market at the end of the month is more popular, with around 175 vendors. Doors open at 6AM. the goods here are of better quality than at the other markets, and you’ll find real antiques, nice carpets, painting, textiles, and decorative objects.

The only market with no admission fee, Pasadena City College Flea Market takes place on the first Sunday of the month. It’s the favorite of bargain hunters and others just looking for a low-key afternoon. there are usually around 500 vendors selling everything from costume jewelry to old bicycles.

How to Get Faster in Hockey – 3 Hockey Speed Training Tips to Maximize Your Skating Speed

Filed in sparsholt Comments Off

How to get faster in hockey is a question every player should be asking themselves. Speed is king on the ice and it’s the difference between good players and great players. Speed can give you the edge in getting around defensemen and make sure you get to loose pucks first. Some people think speed is natural and can’t be trained, but they’re wrong. here are three great tips you can use to get faster and stay faster.

Little changes in form can make big changes in speed.

Ice skating, especially high performance skating for hockey, is an area where form is absolutely crucial, and a player with imperfect form, or worse, poor form, has no chance at reaching their potential when it comes to skating speed. Slight variations can make huge differences. Have a coach video tape you skating and then sit down and analyze your form. You’ll likely be able to identify areas you could improve, and the difference could be huge.

More strides does not equal more speed.

One thing many skaters do is pump their feet constantly as they skate, almost like they’re running. This doesn’t make them faster though. no top skater takes a single stride more than they have to. More strides does not equal more speed. instead, take a few hard quick strides to get up to speed quickly, and then shift your focus to long, smooth strides. You want to hit top speed in as few strides as possible, and then maintain that speed with as little energy as possible.

Off-ice training can make the biggest difference.

If you’re ignoring the gym and your off-ice training, or not training specifically to advance your game, then you’re missing out big time. Fitness is one area where the great players separate themselves from the average players, and when it comes to skating, the work you do in the gym is one of the best ways to take your speed to the next level. Following a specific hockey workout program to improve your speed will provide huge results on the ice.
