SPRINGFIELD, Mass. -- March 30, 2008 - The Springfield College baseball team got back on the winning track by sweeping WPI in a conference doubleheader on Sunday afternoon at Berry-Allen Field. The Pride won the opening game, 5-3, and completed the sweep with a 7-4 victory in the second game.
The wins snap the Pride's eight game losing streak as it improves to 5-10 overall, 2-2 in New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) action. The Engineers fall to 10-9, 2-2.
The story of the afternoon was the outstanding pitching performances Springfield received from Jimmy Lisowski (Warwick, Mass.) and Jacob Feist (Allentown, Pa.). In the opener, Lisowski was spectacular on the mound as he went the distance, scattering just five hits and striking out seven in seven innings of work. Feist tossed a complete game in the second game, surrendering just six hits and allowing four runs, in nine innings.
In the first game, Lisowski got out of a jam early in the top of the first with runners on the corners and two outs. After Scott McNee flied out to Rex Cone (Bristol, Conn.), Cone gunned out Bryan Watkins at the plate to end the inning.
Springfield jumped on the board first in the bottom of the first inning when Jamie Mackie (Springfield, Mass.) scored on a Casey Federico (Agawam, Mass.) sac fly to center field. Mackie originally got on base after doubling down the right field line.
WPI tied the game up at one in the fourth when WPI used back-to-back hard hit doubles to plate a run. McNee hammered a ball into deep left center field and Mike Swanton followed that up with a shot to right center, plating McNee.
The Pride blew open the game in the bottom half of the fourth, plating four runs to take a 5-1 lead. Mackie highlighted the inning with a deep two-RBI double over the right fielder's head, scoring Joe Kropa (Cranford, N.J.) and Drew Michael (Longmeadow, Mass.).
WPI tacked on another run in the fifth with Moreau crossing the plate on a Watkins groundout. The Enginners scored the final run of the game and cut the lead to two after McNee led off the sixth with a solo shot to left center field.
Lisowski was spectacular on the mound as he went the distance, scattering just five hits and striking out seven. Mackie finished the game with three hits and a pair of RBI in the win, while Luke Gabordi (Ledyard, Conn.), Justin Nussey (Westminster, Mass.), and Cone all chipped in with two hits.
Smalanskas suffered the loss for WPI as hit gave up 10 hits and two earned runs. McNee was the lone Enginner with a pair of hits in the loss.
In the second game of the twinbill, WPI struck first with a pair of runs off Feist to open up the first inning. McNee cracked a double to left center field which plated Bryan Watkins and Mark Dignum, who had previously reached on walks. The Engineers added another run in the second when Paul Galligan crossed the plate on a Ethan Brown groundout to second.
Showing plenty of resilience, the Pride answered with three runs in the bottom of the second to tie the game. Mackie once again provided the highlights as his two-RBI single scored John Schmaltz (Cromwell, Conn.) and Mike Robilotto (East Meadow, N.Y.). Ryan Tatreau (Greenfield, Mass.), who doubled to reach base, scored on an throwing error by the pitcher, to tack on another Pride run.
WPI regained the lead in the third when Ryan Rainone scored on a groundout to first after previously leading off the inning with a double.
In the bottom of the fourth, Springfield scored four times to grab a 7-4 lead. Travis Turgeon (Norwich, Conn.) was hit by a pitch on a full count with the bases loaded to bring in Smaltz. Next up, Gabordi was also plunked, forcing in Kropa. With the bases still loaded, Mackie crossed the plate on a passed ball, while Gabordi scored another Pride run after a botched pickoff attempt and error by Nolan Murphy.
Feist was in control the entire game as he went nine innings, surrendering four runs off six hits. Mackie went 2 for 5 with two RBI while Tatreau added two hits and a run scored.
Rainone was the lone member of the Engineers to record a pair of hits in the game. Ryan Marques was served with the loss after going 3 1/3 innings and allowing seven runs, four earned, off six hits and four walks.
Springfield returns to action on Tuesday afternoon with a contest against cross-town rival WNEC. First pitch is slated for 3:30 pm.

Synthesize a Yagudo Necklace with a Wind Crystal. This will get you three spools of Grass Thread. Synthesize them with Earth Crystal to get Grass Cloth.
To get Silk Thread very easily, defeat Crawlers in East Sartabaruta.
This trick is useful to level up much needed spells such as Protect, Cure, and Shell. Go to a local residential area and stand directly outside your Mog House. Cast the desired spell on yourself until you run out of MP. You can also cast it on other players running in and out of their Mog House. Once you have run out of MP, run into your Mog House, replenish it, exit, and repeat. This saves a large amount of time from having to heal after casting. You can level up magic by casting the spell on yourself, despite if you already have the enhancement on yourself or have 100% HP. Keep casting and it will level up.

One of Hockeytown's most notable voices was silenced Tuesday with the sudden death of Budd Lynch.
The 95-year-old worked for the Detroit Red Wings for 63 years, the last of which as the organization's public address announcer.
Those who knew him -- or simply knew his recognizable voice -- are invited to his funeral service, which is open to the public.
Visitation will be from noon to 7 p.m. Friday at R.J. Nixon Funeral Home, 2544 Biddle Ave., Wyandotte. A Rosary service is set for 7 p.m.
Visitation will continue from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Saturday at St. Joseph Catholic Church, 344 Elm St., Wyandotte. A Mass celebrating his life is set for 11 a.m. at the church.
He will be cremated. Memorial contributions are suggested in lieu of flowers. A charity of choice is expected to be announced Wednesday. Check back later for more information.
Here is the official obituary, courtesy of R.J. Nixon Funeral Home:
Budd Francis Lynch passed away on Tuesday, October 9th following a brief illness, but having celebrated 95 wonderful years of life. He now happily joins his beloved wife Thelma and is also preceded in death by Frances Lynch, the mother of his six daughters: Janis (Arthur) Ruffino, Valerie Morris, Mary (Tony) Schimizzi, Frances (Bill) Lary, Patricia (John) Lamerato and Lori (Steve) Grieve-Knorr. He will be sadly missed, but joyously remembered by his 8 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. A WWII veteran of the Canadian Armed Forces, Budd survived the amputation of his right arm, but not held back, decided to meet life with determination and perseverance. He turned misfortune into a gift and to the very end concentrated on helping so many who encounter challenges.

Gloucester head softball coach John Nicastro says it takes 15 players on the varsity, junior varsity and freshman teams combined to field an ideal roster for the program. When the 2012 season concluded Gloucester had just 29 players on the three rosters combined and after a preliminary sign-up in February showed there wouldn't be enough participants to fill a freshman team the program was forced to look to other avenues.
That avenue is allowing eighth grade girls to play on the freshman team. Gloucester High School applied for and was granted a waiver to allow eighth graders to participate last week. Half of the 12 school's in the Northeastern Conference have a similar system. Eighth graders will only be able to compete on the freshman level.
"It's good to take advantage of the waiver if it's for the right reasons," Nicastro said. "Some of the smaller schools in the conference need it because the numbers are small and it may not be for just softball, it could be for another sport too. The larger schools don't need it but Gloucester definitely did. We needed to do something to combat our small numbers."
While the softball program has an adequate number of participants in the freshman and sophomore class, it's the small turnout from the junior and senior classes that led to the school applying for the waiver as just eight upperclassmen tried out.
A small amount of underclassmen creates a trickle down effect throughout the program. The lack of juniors and seniors means more sophomores and freshman will be called upon to play varsity ball and other freshman will have to play on the junior varsity team.
"The door is wide open for freshman to play on the junior varsity spot, some could even sneak into a varsity spot," Nicastro said. "When you only win six games at the varsity level no spot is guaranteed. The door is wide open for everybody."
Smaller schools throughout the area also allow eighth graders to play varsity sports. Fellow Cape Ann Schools Rockport and Manchester Essex allow eighth graders to play varsity as both schools have small enrollments and in both cases the middle school and high school reside in the same building.
Gloucester will not have eighth graders playing in varsity games.
Gloucester's season begins on Wednesday, April 10 at home against Winthrop (4:30 p.m., Burnham's Field).

From staff reports
TRAVERSE CITY — Jose Vargas smacked two home runs and Kyle Teague won his first professional start as the Traverse City Beach Bums held off Lake Erie 3-2 in a Frontier League contest Saturday night at Wuerfel Park.
Vargas hit a solo shots in the first and sixth innings to pace the Traverse City attack. He now has six roundtrippers on the season.
Teague went six innings to garner the win. Matt Miller and Nick Capito finished it off. Capito, who has been almost untouchable this month, pitched out of a jam in the eighth inning after giving up two hits and a run.
Teague, meanwhile, settled down after a shaky start. He allowed seven batters to reach base — three hits, four walks — in the first three innings. He survived by surrendering just one run, that on a sacrifice fly by Max Casper in the second. After that, the former Grand Valley ace gave up just a lead-off walk in the sixth.
The Beach Bums never trailed after scoring twice in the first with two outs. It started with a Vargas home run. Chase Burch followed with a double and he scored on Carlo Testa's single.
Traverse City mustered just five hits off Dave Middendorf, three coming in the first inning. Middendorf pitched eight innings in taking the loss.
The Crushers made it interesting in the eighth. With one out, Russ Moldenhauer singled and scored on Dan Bowerman's triple. Emmanuel Quiles then lifted a shallow fly to right. Testa caught the fly and fired home to catcher Chris Cowell. Bowerman beat the throw, but Cowell fired the ball down to Vargas at third and Bowerman was called out for leaving the base too early.
Capito, who had allowed just one run in 18 previous innings in June, pitched out of trouble again in the ninth. Lake Erie's leadoff batter, Ricardo Lizcano, reached on an error. Pinch runner Kevin Berard then advanced to second on a balk with two outs. But Capito got Gauntlett Eldemire to ground out to Ryan Still at second to end the game. Capito earned his fifth save.
Traverse City, which has now won the first two games in the three-game series, improved to 24-14 in the tightly-contested East Division of the Frontier League. The teams meet again this evening with Scott Dunn (7-0, 2.27) getting the call for Traverse City, Matt Smith (2-1, 4.41) for Lake Erie.

Essential Info
The Smarthome SELECT 6.5-Inch LCR/Surround Directional In-Wall Speaker with Rimless Grille has been manufactured to meet our customers' need for exceptional sound, high-quality construction, and ultimate value, representing everything that great speakers should be. It creates a dramatically rich sound stage with crisp vocals, smooth mid-range, and deep resounding bass that is beyond compare. With several upgraded features when comapred to the competition, a larger woofer, larger tweeter, rimless grille, and a near flush magnetic mount, you will enjoy the same premium sound with a seamless, professional finish to your installation.
Smarthome defines this speaker as LCR/Surround Directional. 'LCR' as your
enter and
ight Channel speakers, 'Surround' as your Middle and Rear Channel
Sound speakers, and 'Directional' because the tweeter can be
to specific areas for optimal listening. This speaker will work perfect as the center channel of a 3 Channel, 5 Channel, 7 Channel or 9 Channel Surround Sound System, you can also order this speaker as a
or consider one of our Smarthome SELECT pre-packaged surround sound kits. You can even augment the performance with a Smarthome SELECT subwoofer to deliver deeper and more powerful bass for a completely immersive experience.
Rimless Grille
- what really makes this product a star is the rimless grille. Other in-ceiling speakers typically feature a grille with a wide unsightly rim, a grille that can often be easily dented when being forced into place, and is usually domed and sticking out from the ceiling. These speakers install using simple twist-lock brackets, so there is no installation ring required. Then the rimless grille can be installed, using the latest and greatest technology. As the name implies, it has almost no visible rim around the edge (less than 1/8"), it simply snaps into place magnetically to the speaker and sits virtually flush with your wall. The grille also has a sealed back cover that protects the speaker and crossover from dust and moisture, and it can be painted to match the texture and color of your walls - so you end up with a quick, clean, professional finish to your home theater / audio system every time.
Plenty of Power
- with a heavy duty 6.5-inch polypropylene co-polymer woofer rated at 50 Watts RMS (continuous use) and 100 Watts Max (quick use), that feature an open-slope 6dB/per octave with impedance compensation network and 18 gauge low resistance-high damp coils, this speaker will fill your listening areas with all the audio you can handle.
Directional Sound
- with any home theater system it is important to diect the sound where it's needed the most. This speaker features a built-in pivoting tweeter that offers up to 15 degrees of rotation in any forward facing direction. So whether you have a large area or a small area you can send the mid to high end frequencies to the sweet spot of your room for optimal listening pleasure.
1 1/2" Liquid Cooled Silk Dome Tweeter
- most speakers of this size use 1/2" or 3/4" tweeters that can deliver less-than-optimal response in the high-frequency range. We have added a huge 1 1/2" neo-driven pivoting silk dome tweeter to this speaker that id not only very efficient, but it is liquid cooled to ensure proper sound reproduction at high volume levels for extended periods of time, allowing you to enjoy your music at any volume level you wish for as long as you please.
High Fidelity
- it takes the right components to produce high-quality reproduction of sound, and this speaker makes it happen. Steep slope acoustically engineered filters for higher efficiency, increased power handling and cleaner output. Impedance compensation networks for greater amplifier compatibility, increased detail, wider soundstage, improved imaging and better depth perception. Mylar film capacitors in-line with by-pass technology for increased detail and transparency. 18 gauge copper wire, high power, low resistance iron core coils and protection networks. Hard-wired NASA grade PC boards for much greater unit-to-unit consistency. Multi-composite polypropylene woofer with bump-down back plate and CCAW voice coil, combining for longer excursion, improved transient response and lower distortion output.
Quality is a Priority
- extensive testing has been done on all final designs, as well as critical listening and final voicing, to ensure that we are delivering a top grade product that will satisfy even the most demanding audio purists.
There is a complete line of
Smarthome SELECT products
available to help you build a premium home theater.

I must say that working 10 to 13 hours a day in the sun doing landscaping sucks. The money is awesome, but i have no time for anything else. I get to see my fiance for about an hour and a half a night and i am so tired that I cant move, not to mention the fact that i haven't seen my family or friends in almost 2 months. I can't keep my eyes open long enough to watch a movie and playing xbox is out of the question. I think it should be against the law for a man to work that many hours 6 to 7 days a week. My mom keeps telling me that i should be grateful to even have a job, and i do agree with her but damn. I need some me time. I havent had any p**sy in so long i forgot which arm it's under and i can't do it myself because my hands hurt so bad. Whats a man to do in a situation like this. Well i am sorry, but i needed to vent a little. Everyone take it easy and i will try to drink a beer for each and every one of ya. P.S. I generally don't drink, but this job has driven me to it. Bottoms up.

If Cardinals go offensive line in draft, they'll have plenty of options
Really, take a look.
A lot will happen between now and the draft, which begins on April 25, including private workouts, college all-star games and the NFL Scouting Combine.
Still, as far as the Cardinals are concerned, their biggest needs are pretty easily identifiable: quarterback and offensive line.
While this is regarded to be a fairly weak QB class, there appear to be several talented lineman from which the Cardinals may be left to choose from.
ESPN NCAA football analyst Mark May, as a guest of Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo Tuesday, had some pretty high praise for some of the top prospects, including Texas A&M tackle Luke Joeckel and Alabama guard Chance Womack.
"Well Joeckel and Womack will definitely probably be top-12 picks in my opinion," he said.
May said he does not expect A&M tackle Jake Matthews to leave college, but said the best offensive linemen in this draft have plenty to offer an NFL team.

probably not. Tito vs Ken II does nothing for me. Sylvia vs AA could be alright, but most likely won't last past the 1st round. Yves vs Stevenson will be good. I will still see the event, just won't order it myself. My cable bill is big enough with the HD channels, DVR, and premium channel package that I already have. I don't even remember the last time I didn't order a UFC event, but UFC 61 doesn't really excite me at all.
Yo you're not ordering UFC 61?! Shamrock-Ortiz II, Sylvia-Arlovski III, Stevenson/Yves, cmon now.
This may be the 1st time I don't order a UFC in awhile. Looks like my PPV money is going to Pride and WFA for July. Bas back is great news, can't wait to see how he looks in action.
There is more of the press release. I just didn't want to take up a whole page with one post. Go to MMANews.com or MMAWeekly.com to see the rest.
Yeah WFA sent me the P.R. on that too. I woke up and seen it in my inbox. So it's official now bitches! I can't wait. My dear god Bas Rutten is back! Who would of ever thought?!
there is already a thread about this so i'm going to merge them.
Bas to officially return vs Kimo
LOS ANGELES, May 30th, 2005 Following months of public speculation regarding a potential comeback to the sport he once dominated, the World Fighting Alliance (WFA) today announced the return of mixed martial arts (MMA) superstar Bas Rutten. The former UFC Heavyweight Champion and 3 x King of Pancrase has officially signed to fight for the WFA and will make his return to the cage at WFA: King of the Streets on July 22nd at the Forum in Los Angeles against infamous Huntington Beach street-fighter Kimo in a bout thats nothing short of personal.
After more than a six-year hiatus from competitive fighting, highlighted by work as a color commentator and network studio analyst for FOX Sports Pride fighting broadcasts and his involvement as a coach in the newly formed IFL, Rutten began to feel the competitive itch to get back in the cage. The recent announcements of the revitalized WFA, its impressive list of MMA stars and its first event at the Forum in Los Angeles on July 22nd provided Rutten the added motivation to make his comeback official.
Speaking with WFA CEO Jeremy Lappen about his plans for the WFA and seeing the incredible fighters that are signing with the WFA had me very motivated about returning to the cage, said Rutten. Ive managed to stay pretty close to fighting shape amidst my involvement with the IFL and my broadcasting work, and Im confident that my skills will be sharp as ever when I face Kimo on July 22nd.
Rutten will return to face a formidable opponent in Kimo, in a fight fueled by animosity, stemming from rumors over the past month of Ruttens return and his specific decision to target Kimo as his first opponent fresh out of retirement.
Bas to officially return vs Kimo
MMAweekly posted it today. Every other forum picked up their story and ignored mine. MMAWeekly had the same source for their shit as well, just wrote it as if someone told them. So them writing it seems to confirm it in everyone else's minds, are we convinced over here yet?
That's what I was trying to say the other day, it's been rumored for a while that's nothing new, but now the rumor has gone public from the company themselves in a promotional way. So it's gotta be true now unless WFA is looking to bury themselves before they even get going again.
Originally Posted by Tystick357

The fighters were talking about it and then it trickled down to me. I found it somewhat credible so I put it in the newsletter.
Id like to also bring up the notion that the first time you heard about the IFL and Strikeforce being on FSN was through the newsletter. Spank you spank you, bumblebee tuna.
I would say the only rumor that was never reported about was that Dana White and Nick Diaz thing. That was completely true cuz my source on that was Marcus Davis.
if they were handing out flyers with those guys on them then they better deliver or there in for some rough times. so if they were posted on the flyers for the fights then it should be and i hope it is true.
Yeah this isn't the first I've heard or written about it either, but there was flyers handing out promoting it and I would think you wouldn't want to promote something you're not sure your gonna have. Seems more likely now than it did before as just an on paper rumor that someone heard from some source and the word spread.

CATAWBA, N.C. -- The old Riverbend coal plant is shutting down but the coal ash pollution goes on – and now a local environmental group is suing over it.
Duke Energy plans to shut down its out-of-date, coal-fired Riverbend Steam Station by Monday, April 1, but the Catawba Riverkeeper Foundation served notice this morning that it plans to sue Duke over ongoing water pollution streaming from two ponds containing millions of tons of coal ash.
Those ponds flow into Mountain Island Lake several miles upstream of Charlotte-Mecklenburg's massive water intake as well as intakes for much of Gaston County, the source of drinking water for more than three quarters of a million people.
The Riverkeeper's formal notice that it intends to sue claims that in addition to Duke's permitted discharge, Riverbend's ponds leak into the lake through dozens of smaller "seeps," some of which Duke has funneled into small streams by using rock known as "rip-rap" and French drains.
Duke has maintained that the leaks are signs that the earthen dam is "healthy" and that the water flowing from the coal ash ponds into the lake meets all state and federal water quality laws.
But the Catawba Riverkeeper Foundation samples and tests the water quality from both the seeps and the stream known as the "outfall." And the Riverkeeper claims the coal ash lagoons are discharging pollutants at many times the federal drinking water standard.
Specifically the Riverkeeper claims to have documented discharges of:
• Arsenic at least twice the standard
• Cobalt at 52 times the standard
• Manganese at 128 times the standard
Duke representatives say the drinking water standard does not apply to the water flowing from the coal ash ponds.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Utilities District regularly tests the raw water before it is treated for drinking, and reports no increased levels of pollutants.
Duke University researchers have found increased levels of arsenic trapped in the muck outside the water intake.
The scientists say under drought conditions the arsenic could "erupt" into the raw water supply.
Duke Energy has yet to file a plan for closing the coal ash ponds after the plant closes. The Riverkeeper says the pollution will continue long after the plant stops burning coal.

Made this frozen strawberry pie
This sure hit the spot when it was so hot and humid this past weekend. (Yep, we do get that kind of weather up here)
Frozen strawberry yogurt pie
1 c gr cracker crumbs
1 c gr pretzels
2 c sug, divided
½ c butter melted
2.5 c chpd fr strawberries
1 T chpd fr thyme lvs
8 oz pkg crm cheese, softened
16 oz vanilla yogurt
½ c conf sug
8 oz cool whp, thawed
Spray 10" springform pan.
Line the bottom with parchment paper, spray agn.
Combine: gr cracker crumbs, pretzels and 1 c sug
Add butter,
Press into pan.
Plc in frzr while preparing filling
In a food processor: blend strawberries and 1 c sugar and thyme; pulse til smooth
Bowl: crm cheese at H til creamy, abt 3 min
Add yogurt and confections sugar, beat til smooth
Add strberry mix to yogurt mix
Beat to combine
Add whpd topping and beat til smooth
Spoon into crust
Freeze for 4 hrs
Cover with plastic wrap, frz up to 1 week.
Remove from pan,
Garnish with more strawberries and thyme
(pardon my shorthand; I hate reading wordy recipes and sometimes change the format)
Some changes for next time:
- not to process the strawberries to liquid. I would have liked to have tasted some small pieces of strawberries instead. Maybe I could leave a few out and cut those up; puree the rest.
- I didn't use parchment paper, just greased the bottom plate.
- Not sure if I liked the chpd pretzels in the crust. Might stick with all cracker crumbs.
- Also, I forgot to put the sugar in the crumbs not sure it made a difference. Cut down on the calories that's for sure. This message has been edited. Last edited by: nance425,
Sounds good!
And yes, DD has said it was hot in Minneapolis!

Think I will try this with your modifications, for my sister visit in a couple of weeks.
Thanks a lot!
You're welcome LOS. It makes a lot. Probably about 14 pieces..but the good thing is you can keep it in the freezer for a good month.
If you make it, post back and let me know how you liked it.
That sounds so good nance425, I'm going to bring this tomorrow night to a dinner at our friends house.
I enjoyed the shorthand! reminds me of little blirp that was on Facebook a while back that started off: You just need to see the first and last letter of a word....The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. ... huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt! if you can raed tihs psas it on !
SR, I've seen the same thing about only needing a coupla letters to be able to read the words. Amazing, isn't it?
Hope you like the pie. We took it out about 30 minutes to defrost before cutting/eating. Helped a lot.
p.s. I also took shorthand in H.S. and can still remember it. Sometimes I have to remind myself, people can't read that when I use it!!! This message has been edited. Last edited by: nance425,
Thanks for sharing, I'm going to save and try soon. Reminds me of my favorite pretzel crusted dessert with strawberry Jell-O.
Lurah: We call it pretzel salad - don't know why. It's one of our favorites that has to be made at all family gatherings.
This frozen pie goes a long way...
Nance, we call that strawberry salad as well.
I'll have to try your pie this summer when the girls come to lunch!
Love the addition of the thyme!

Cellar/Tasting Notes The goal at Acacia is to interfere as little as possible in order to preserve maximum flavor of their wine with clarity and balance. They believe in the grapes and the land.
The 2012 Chardonnay epitomizes this goal as it is a balanced and refreshing chardonnay with aromatic notes of fresh melon,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Pale gold. Pungent, exotic aromas of passion fruit, peach skin, smoky minerals and wild herbs. Dense, broad and penetrating, offering sappy, soil-driven flavors of orchard and pit fruits, crushed rock and honey, with a repeating smokiness. Deep and chewy on the finish, with the honey and smoke..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Foxen's UU Block from the famed Bien Nacido Vineyard fights it out every year with the estate Tinaquaic Chardonnay for top honors. In this cool vintage, the former wins out by a hair. Dry, steely and crisp in acidity, it shows vast tropical fruit, orange, vanilla, honey and buttered toast flavors..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Pale gold. Ripe pear, orange, creme brulee and ginger on the fragrant nose, with notes of vanilla bean and smoky lees adding complexity. Pliant but sharply focused citrus and orchard fruit flavors gain depth with air, picking up a deeper marzipan nuance. The pear and leesy notes carry through on..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Donelan's 2011 Chardonnay Nancie is pretty and expressive. Another wine with lovely textural depth and nuance, the 2011 is laced with dried apricots, nectarines, flowers and mint, all of which come together in the glass. Though medium in body, the 2011 impresses for its soft, caressing personality..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "I was also impressed by the 2011 Chardonnay Platt Vineyard. Cropped at one ton of fruit per acre (Ramey told me the grapes looked like petits pois from France), and from one of the coldest sites in his portfolio, it exhibits lively notes of lemon oil, lime skins, white peaches and a touch of..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2010 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard is gorgeous. Nectarine, flowers, honey, mint, pastry and sweet spices all flesh out in the glass. Stylistically the 2010 is a bit bigger and richer than most HdV wines because of the heat spikes, but over the last year the wine seems to have found its sense of..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2010 Chardonnay Isobel Charles Heintz Vineyard is racy, elegant and perfumed. The long growing season yielded a focused wine that nicely balances richness and minerality. Hints of dried apricots, pears, light floral honey and herbs add complexity in the bright, focused finish. Here, too, there..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This Chardonnay shows the ripe fruit and tangy acidity derived from this cool-climate vineyard. It bears tart apricot, orange and mineral flavors, balanced by oaky notes of vanilla and buttered toast."

In July 2014 I will be running a residential course! There are only 12 places in total and demand has been high. There are a few places available on this July course for those quick enough to act!
The course is open to just twelve people in total and will consist of twenty-three hours of training. This will be an in-depth course with everyone getting lots of personal attention which is why the numbers are strictly limited. The course content will also be shaped by the participants. Each participant can choose the theme for one-hour (12 hours of training) with me choosing the content for the remaining 11 hours. I will bring it altogether to produce a holistic in-depth course covering many aspects of practical karate, kata bunkai, self-protection, etc.
The course will be held at a beautiful location in Shropshire. The location has an inbuilt dojo and we have the entire place to ourselves. Please see the photographs to get a better idea of the quality of the venue. Training finishes each day at 7pm to give plenty of time for relaxation and informally chatting about martial arts. Training times are as follows:

Arrive 11am: Unpack and get ready for training
12pm – 2pm: Training

All instalments need to be paid on time and secure your place. There is sure to be high demand with many people being turned away. All payments are therefore non-refundable. Do not book unless you are sure you can attend.
HOW TO BOOK: Please email Iain at email@example.com or call 01900829406 (Overseas: +441900829406). Due to limited availability, we are sure this course will be oversubscribed.

Mazda 3 Steering & Suspension Questions
sagrarioluque7 Posts: 3Stallionre,
My mechanic says the pump was flooded with water. I have a problem. Here, in Honduras the only Mazda 3 2.3 are brought from the states as was mine. The dealership only brings 2.0 so the dealership wont go near it. What can I do? Where can i find Mazda 3 2.3 pumps on the internet? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Sagrarioluque7, That pump is an electric motor type, YIKES. They are hard to find. I was searching online for one for you and found one on ebay. This is for a 2006 Mazda 3. I don't know of anywhere else besides the dealer. Did you call the dealership where you bought the car from? I am out of suggestions sorry.
How did you pump get flooded with water? :sick:
I don't think Ford owns Mazda. Ford own's 33% of Mazda in total stock, but that is it. I say this because it was in another forum about this discussion, even this forum talked about it. Many people said that Ford does not own Mazda. Who knows?
This is the statement that this forum made in March, 2007:
"Does anyone feel that there is any difference, say an improvement or a degradation in any way with Mazda, whether it's customer service, management style or reliability because Ford owns Mazda?"
Before we dive too far out on this topic, is everyone aware that Ford does NOT own Mazda?
Ford owns a controlling stake (about 33%) of Mazda; that is a bit different from actually OWNING Mazda.
I bought my used 3 in the spring and found that the handling in the rain was awful. I was hydroplaning everywhere. I put 2 new tires on a few weeks ago and it rained - I was still all over the road. Is this something any of you have experienced? I live in Ohio so I'm afraid of the winter snow coming up!
What kind of tires do you have on your 3? I ask because the Goodyear Eagle RS-As that came on mine are almost universally regarded as junk (in spite of their very high price tag). I've only had my car for four days now and I've already ordered a new set of tires for it, go figure.
FWIW, while I was shopping for new rubber, I noticed that TireRack is having a closeout sale on the very well regarded Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires (they used to be $165 for the 205/50 R17s that my car needs, and while supplies last, they're $120), and so I ordered a set of four. As things stand right now, I'll have the new rubber mounted on my car next Tuesday, and that means that I'll have a spare set of Goodyear Eagle RS-As in the above size with less than 500 miles on them. Hello? Craig's list?
Best regards,
It's probably been over 20 years since I've been satisfied with the performance of tires that came on a new car in non-dry conditions. And maybe it's a bit of a sliding scale. There are so many good choices for tires right now that the tires on new cars may very well be just as good as they used to be, but I've been spoiled by putting on better tires.
Tires are going to be the major factor in wet weather handling and I'd look there almost exclusively rather than assuming some kind of design problem with the car.

I agree. I don't believe I've ever replaced the OEM tires with the same things. Always upgraded. Not necessarily to a higher price tire, but I've always found something more highly regarded for approximately the same money. Having said that, I've never had OEM tires so awful that I felt compelled to upgrade before they were worn out. I don't get a ton of rain or ice here in north Texas, but I've yet to notice any sort of poor handling of the OEM tires on my 2008 Mazda3i Touring. Perhaps with these 16" wheels, the OEM tires are less performance-oriented and better in the rain than the 17's that come on the S? Or maybe it's just because I drive like my dad in poor weather ever since I had kids of my own...
I'm thinking that it's advances in tire technology. Prior to the mid-80's I pretty much always replaced original tires with the same brand as I wasn't disappointed in their performance.
First time I went away from that was in the early 90's and I was amazed how much more tread life I got with a different brand. So my attention turned to "saving money" by getting better wearing and performing tires and not having to change them as often.
I've been running Kelly tires on my cars for years now, and just got 59,000+ out of a set of Navigator Golds on my one vehicle. The Continentals that came on my newest vehicle were horrible in the rain right from the outset (again, compared to what I had become accustomed to with the Kellys) and the day they were completely shot at just under 30,000 miles was a day I looked forward to. On the recommendation of a buddy who owns a tire shop and garage I'm trying Cooper CS4's this time around. About 10,000 miles into the set and I'm very happy with them.

I don't know about the 2008 models, but my 2009 Mazda3 i Touring came with Goodyear Eagle RS-A 205/50 R17 tires, and no matter where you look, TireRack.com, other Mazda3 forums, DiscountTire.com, you name it, most folks think they're junk, especially on wet and snowy road surfaces. No thanks.
Like many other folks, I usually run through the OEM tires before upgrading to newer/better rubber, however, with winter looming, the RS-As will be history by Tuesday.
Best regards,
orca3 Posts: 11trose - The 07 Touring Htchbk that I just traded for my new 09 Mazdaspeed3, had
those same Goodyears on it and I upgraded to Kuhmos Ecsta Asx's after
2000 miles - great price(Tirerack.com),great handling,no hydroplaning
not for deep snow, as the 3 sits low and uses a 50 series tire. If you're
really worried about snow and ice you might have to go to a 2nd set of
dedicated snow tires as I'm doing with the 'speed3(Michelin x ice).
I can't say enough for the Kumho's though, have had them on 2 different
cars and although they're not a name brand icon - they're a real bargain
and about half the price of the Goodyears and were very good in rain and
light snow.
2008 i Touring (value) built after Jan 2008 came with 17's. I'm actually glad I got mine before then with the 16's. Comparing OEM 16" to OEM 17", they have longer tread life, and are cheaper to replace as well. I like the leather steering wheel and shift knob and fog lights on the value package (and that new copper red color is hot) but I'm very happy with mine and the deal I got.

candy and squash?
package is black with some kind of cola-coloured soda pop as a
background, with ice cubes. Over it, in big, black, bold letters is
"SALTY SQUASH". Near the bottom are graphics of the
candies: a brown one, a yellow one and a green one with salty
cola, salty ginger ale and salty lime written in
Japanese underneath each respectively. On the back, it generally
mentions that this candy acts as re-energizer, which makes me think
of a sports drink (hence the salt). Im currently tired after a
days work so lets see if this candy will do the trick.
rip open the package across the top starting from the notch and find
that it tears easily. As an added packaging bonus, it has a
built-in zip lock to release the package. Opening the package, a
rather strange, almost melon-like, aroma wafts out. Looking inside, I
find that each candy is in its own wrapper and coloured accordingly.
now to try each candy. Is it salty? Is it sweet? Will they taste like
someone sprinkled salt in your carbonated beverage?
colour of this candy is a yellowish green, though not an electric
lime green as depicted on the package. Popping it into my mouth, the
first flavor that hits me is the saltiness then some of the sweetness
kicks in. There is a slight effervescence that bites my tongue as the
artificial lime flavour melts in my mouth. Its very much like a
sports drink.
Ginger Ale: The colour of this candy is a yellow thats a little
more subdued than on the package. I find this one not to be as salty,
but what I do get is a tangy lemony flavor with a ginger aroma.
Again, the slight effervescence is present. It does, however, come
off a bit warmer & more gingery on the tongue as it dissolves.
Cola: Similarly to the other 2, the colour of the cola is a much
lighter brown than on the package. At first, I get the salty flavor,
but the cola flavor surges through. This is probably my favourite out
of the three because its closest to what my brain feels the
flavours would be like, with the same effervescence as the other two.
the end, I have to admit that I do feel a bit more refreshed after
eating 3 of these Salty Squash candies. They, however, do not taste
like squash in the slightest. I cant say I enjoyed it as a regular
candy in my mouth, except for maybe the cola one. I can say that Id
consider re-purchasing it and keeping a few in my bag in case I need
a bit of a pick-me-up.

Perfect I purchased this in the sale for my nephews first birthday. He loves it and so do the rest of the family :)
excellent service,ordered one day delivered the next and at the time specified.
Rocker looks eye-catching and so my grandchild wanted to play on it as soon as he saw it. It is large enough to be played with for several years. Easy for him to get in and out of. Needs supervision at all times as it could over balance
The rocker was easy to assemble its safe fun and soft to the touch my niece loves this, the colour is vibrant and the noises it makes are a great feature
