The Rotary Club of Gloucester
Hosts the 8th Annual Polar Plunge to Make Polio History
The Gloucester Rotary Club will again host clubs from Rotary District 7930 (eastern Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire) for the 8th annual Polar Plunge on Saturday, February 3, 2018 at Long Beach in Gloucester. The event is part of Rotary International’s ongoing campaign to eradicate polio in our lifetime. Several hundred people are expected to plunge into the cold waters off Cape Ann this year. Last year, over 300 people braved the icy waters, raising more than $120,000. Since the first Rotary Polar Plunge in 2011, Massachusetts Rotarians have raised over a half-million dollars with this event.
Please support Gloucester Rotarians as they brave the icy waters to help eradicate polio in our lifetime. The goal for the plunge is $125,000. Supporters can text “polio” to 71777 or visit www.GloucesterRotary.org

This February, we are highlighting Go Red for Women and National Wear Red Day. Tomorrow, February 2nd, women across the country will dress in red to spread awareness for Cardiovascular Disease. This up and coming day is presented by the American Heart Association, and is dedicated to making women aware of the risks of heart disease and the ways it can be prevented. Why is this important to you? According to goredforwomen.org, approximately every 80 seconds Cardiovascular Disease kills one woman in the U.S. Go Red for Women is focused on making this shocking statistic heard, so that women can educate themselves, their loved ones, and tackle heart disease head on.
Us women are amazing, talented folks. We work tirelessly to take care of our children, families, and friends. We multitask endlessly as part of our daily lives. But how often do we take the time to take care of…

I pretty much followed the recipe from serious eats Except I added some oregano and garlic powder to the mix. Also I think the recipe can be improved if you partially cook the bacon before hand and buddy Craig Kimberley suggested using a pork/beef mix instead of straight ground chuck.
These were awesome and I’d do them all over again the same way with either of teh ingredients if that’s all I had on hand.
Mix one lb and a half of 80/20 ground beef, two lightly beaten eggs and 3/4 cups seasoned panko bread crumbs and added oregano and garlic powder.
Roll into 1 inch balls and wrap with a half a strip of bacon securing the bacon with a tooth pick. next dust with your favorite BBQ Rub. I used Famous Daves BBQ Rub.

Next set up the PK 360 for high heat indirect cooking. A full chimney…

On what planet do these out of touch radio show hosts think that the greatest quarterback of all time should call in to their shows after they mock him mercilessly all week long? What is this bananaland?
Tom Brady Hung Up On sports radio host after expressing his displeasure with his daughter being called a “pissant”.
Listening to Mike Felger defend the comment by saying they get paid to push the envelope says it all.
Radio hosts like Felger and Mazz and Alex Reimer can speak disrespectfully about Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.
Tom Brady doesn’t have to give them the time of day.
Do you think Tom Brady needs the money that badly that he should have to call in and talk to these douchebags that conjure up conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory like Tom forced Jimmy Garopolo out and that Brady, Belichick and Kraft all hate each other? I’m guessing Tom has plenty of dough.
So if these guys want to antagonize and drive wedges and fabricate conspiracy theories and repeat them over and over until they convince themselves that they bullshit they are selling is fact then screw them.
I hope Brady never speaks to them again. I hope he speaks to their competitors.
Felger- Defending Alex Reimer-
I hope Brady and the Patriots win the Superbowl and he retires the next day.
I hope Belichick gets back to an AFC Championship game without Brady within four years and makes the playoffs next year without him.
It’s the Douchebag Boston Sports Radio Hosts Perogative To Fabricate And Drum Up Controversy. But Then To Act Incredulous When Boston Athletes, Coaches Or Owners Tell Them They’re Not Interested In Speaking With Them Shows Just How Out Of Touch And Pompous Certain Boston Sports Media Have Become.
