Bridge of Don is an industrial part of Aberdeen about one mile north of the city's historic downtown. It's home to the Aberdeen Convention Center, Aberdeen University and the Bridge of Don Industrial Estate. While this is mainly a residential and industrial neighborhood, three golf courses are less than one mile to the east; and the region boasts Westfield Park, with playing fields, places to walk and run, and a sports center. A small handful of hotels in both Bridge of Don proper or within a two-mile radius provide visitors with a place to stay at all budgetary levels.
Aberdeen Northern Hotel
The Aberdeen Northern Hotel (aberdeennorthernhotel.com) is about one mile south of Bridge of Don. One of the few truly independent hotels in the area, this gray-colored flatiron building offers 32 rooms, all with wireless Internet and standard amenities. The styling is traditional with artwork on the walls and long drapes. The decor is in soft colors with earth-toned accents and, in some cases, tasteful patterns. The registered historic building dates back to 1939, and includes Art Deco features and a violin-shaped hall. The Northern Hotel's Astoria Restaurant takes advantage of locally sourced food; and the on-site bar, Ellington's, doubles as a diner and has a full circular bar. Inside the hotel is a resident's bar with pool tables and televisions. Your cooked Scottish breakfast is included but, for alternative dining, you'll find Domino's Pizza within a block and other choices, such as Auriga, within half a mile.

Other hotel services include dry cleaning and laundry, plus the hotel bar has limited snacks and guests are welcome to use the restaurant at Holiday Inn, its next-door neighbor and sister hotel.
Brig Inn Hotel
Brig Inn Hotel (brig-inn.com) is a family-run pub hotel with an Indian restaurant and take-out, the Shish Tandoori, next door.

The closest alternative eateries are more than a mile away and include Mains of Scotstown Inn and Ashvale Fish Restaurant. The parking is free and some rooms are wheelchair-accessible.

The pushout in the category of topological spaces is given by the gluing of spaces along continuous maps. Does there exist a similar "easy" topological description of the pullback? Does it even always exist in this category?
Yes, exists, and is a subspace of $A\times B$, in case you want to pull back $f:A\to C$ and $g:B\to C$. Namely, a kind of 'equalizer': $$A{}_f\times_g B:= \{ (a,b)\mid f(a)=g(b)\} $$ I think you can draw it somehow..
Somehow.. generally, pullback 'asks' for the solution (when $f=g$?), and pushout 'realizes' or 'forces' (topologically: 'glues') the solution, saying: "let $f(a)=g(a)$ in the new space for all $a$".

Fernando Alonso Message Board
Fernando spits the dummy out!!!!!!
As good a driver as I think he is, he's only himself to blame for being behind Lewis in the championship.
Battered the car on the first lap, first corner even at Canada. Made some bad errors at Bahrain, and Spain.
He's claiming Lewis, being a Brit in a British team is getting preferential treatment. I can't see that happeneing at McLaren, it certainly never did with Coulthard when he was team mates with Mika, or with Kimi.
Lewis may get a little more attention as he's a rookie and new to the business. But after investing the money Ron Dennis has in this lad, and with the undoubted talent he's got, who wouldn't.
Sour grapes me thinks on Alonso's part.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
as far as I know the twice world champion has never crashed at red traffic lights. nuff said!!
Sonic_Dream Sonic_Dream Jan 1, 2008 05:19 Flag
Fully agree, he has a load of growing up to do before he's a league near Lewis
Wedonot want her Wedonot want her Oct 24, 2007 19:24 Flag
Totally agree with you - Alonso has behaved like a spoilt brat all season. Did you notice the smiles when Lewis didn't make the podium ? Sporting Alonso ? Definitely not. Heaven help any other drivers in a team who would take him on - if he didn't get his own way !
idhoult...are you reply to my post? if you are I don't understand your reply...I never said Alonso was No 1 driver, every McLaren fan knows RD does not have a No 1...I said Alonso THINKS he should be No 1...learn to take in and understand what you are reading before you comment on it....MATE!!!!
Fernando, you have the talent, you have the opportunity with your team but you have a rotten attitude. Get a life or get your signature on a new contract with Ferrari - then you too can "prostitute" your way to another championship.
- 1 Reply to GRAHAM J
Fernado appeared to deliberately drive Lewis off the track at Spa, pity such a talented driver needs to resort to this startline tactic with his team mate.
The sooner Alonso goes back to Renault the better
I can see really clearly why the UK hasn´t had any F1 champion for so longtime.
Let me tell you what you should do:Focus all the attention in Lewis Hamilton and tell him every day that he is the best F1 driver in the world.Treat him as he were a F1 champion already.And waist your time attacking Fernando Alonso....
You will get the following.....
Fernando Alonso will win a lot of F1 championships and Lewis Hamilton will become another ¨Broken Toy¨.
And please push Mercedes very much against the wall.
In the future Mercedes will do as BMW did.They will set up its own F1 team and Mclaren F1 team will become a ¨bunch of losers¨.
Don´t worry about Fernando Alonso.He will join in Ferrari, BMW or Toyota.
And please, tell Lewis Hamilton not to learn how to develop a real car.He just must use the Mclaren F1 simulator.
So, that way, when Fernando Alonso abandones the Mclaren F1 team, you will be able to hire Michael Schumacher to develop the car for him.
Lewis Hamilton will never have another offer outside Mclaren F1 team.
Can you brits?. :):):):)

Abandons the McClaren team ? !!!! He should have his contract cancelled.
That is really great! Who are going to copy Hami and Mclaren once Alonso is gone!!
omg Andres one of the best coments I have seen ever
Can you brits?. :):):):)
There are some rumors about Mercedes buying Mclaren, and Ron and Lewis going to drive to Pro Drive the new team. I dont like it even, but will be a sense of what its happening with Mercedes.
and one thing more, Mercedes has show down his sells in spain by 15%, thats really a lot, and I dont thing Haug is happy with it.
And just where is Renault? They have a problem designing normal cars.
It's a shame to have a teammate like hamilton.
He only respect team orders on his own benefit
Hungary GP has been another FIA crazy show like Nurburgring with the derrick.
Sad day for sport.
Sad day and shame for McLaren

That Lewis is getting more attention? Cmon!! Dont forget what happen in malasia (I think it was Malasia) when the team gave Alonso the win in the pits, stopping Hamilton longer when he was up to his first victory. Now Hamilton gets the attention cause he is just better than Alonso and the team cant disguise it any more. Alonso sucks, big time.

Hi I am having major problems setting up a Hyper-V 2012 cluster on a P2000 SAS SAN.
Running System Center VMM 2012 SP1 I am unable to see any storage to create my cluster. Has anyone had experienced anything similar? Under fabric and storage I can't add the P2000, all I can do is use storage spaces in server manager to create a storage pool and virtual disk. This allows me to create a file share which I can add to VMM but I still can't see any disk to create a cluster. I am just about at the point where I want to tear my hair out wipe the servers and stick VMware on them because I know it works as I have set several systems up like this in the past.
The Hyper-V servers can see the storage and in server manager on my management machine it seems to know both servers can see the same disk. VMM is running on the same machine and it can't see any disk.
Help..... Thanks Mike

Lyceum (software)
- This article is about the blogging software Lyceum. For the conferencing system developed by Open University, see Lyceum (synchronous CMC software)
The Lyceum administration interface.
|John Joseph Bachir
|Stable release
|1.0.3 / June 4, 2008
|Operating system
|CMS/Blog software
Lyceum was an open-source blogging platform based on WordPress. It was developed by ibiblio, but development ceased in 2010.
Lyceum was first made public in February 2006. It originally began in mid-2005, and development is synchronous with WordPress.[1] As of March 2009, Lyceum was based on an old version of WordPress and was inactive while the developer considered whether or not to resume development.[2] In May 2010, its maintainer John Bachir announced that the project was discontinued.[3]
Differences from WordPress MU[edit]
WordPress MU, developed by the core WordPress team, is extremely similar in functionality to Lyceum. The primary difference is that Lyceum stores all of its information in a set number of database tables (it has a normalized schema). WordPress MU, on the other hand, adds new tables for each weblog added (it has a sharded schema).[4]

The Lubbock County medical examiner has ruled Michael Nicholson's June 6 death was caused by a physical altercation with asphyxia. Nicholson was partially on a bed when someone laid over his upper torso before he became unresponsive at the Lubbock State Supported Living Center, the autopsy report released Friday states.
He was pronounced dead a short time later, the report said.
Nicholson's mother, Lilly, said employees at the center, formerly called the Lubbock State School, dressed her son before starting CPR.
Six employees at the home were fired for their involvement in Nicholson's death.

A 38-year-old man has appeared in court charged with the
murder of a mother found dead in her Wellington home
Amanda Dawn Taufale, 33, died at her home on Sunrise
Boulevard, Tawa shortly before 8am.
Police last night charged Ernest Smith with her murder after
earlier appealing for public help to find him.
He appeared in Porirua District Court this morning and was
remanded in custody until December 7.
Ms Taufale lived with her 15-year-old son Liam, who she had
with separated husband David Taufale, and a six-month-old
Police said both children were at home at the time of what
they say was "a violent death".
Ms Taufale's mother-in-law, Sera Taufale, this morning said
her grandson Liam had found his mother.
The news of her death had come as a shock.
"When the detective told me that sad thing happened, I felt
like screaming my head off," Mrs Taufale said.
Amanda and David Taufale separated a long time ago but she
remained close to her in-laws.
"We all get along with Amanda, she's a very kind-hearted
woman. And every rugby game her son goes to, every game she's
there. And she always comes and meets with us."
David Taufale is returning from Australia to be with his
family this afternoon.
The officer in charge of the homicide investigation,
Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Oxnam, said last night's
arrest would come as a relief to Ms Taufale's family.
"The investigation team is still working hard to understand
the exact events leading up to Amanda's death. At this stage,
we are not looking for anyone else in connection with her
A post mortem examination will be carried out today.
Police are still appealing for anyone who saw a late model
blue Toyota Hatchback, registration GMB108, to come forward.
Officers this morning spoke to commuters at Takapu Railway
Station, seeking sightings of the car and its occupants since

How blood group O protects against malaria
It has long been known that people with blood type O are protected from dying of severe malaria. In a study published in Nature Medicine, a team of Scandinavian scientists explains the mechanisms behind the protection that blood type O provides, and suggest that the selective pressure imposed by malaria may contribute to the variable global distribution of ABO blood groups in the human population.

Wie to play John Deere (again)
May, 22, 2007
By Jason Sobel
So, Michelle Wie is going to play in the John Deere Classic this year, it was announced on Tuesday.
That's nothing new. She's competed in the tournament each of the last two years and, quite honestly, it's one of her better chances to post a quality result, considering the weakened field at the pre-British Open run-up event and the relatively benign 7,193-yard layout. (I won't say it's one of her best chances to make a cut, because we all know competing in tour events is about more than just making cuts. But I digress ...)
Anyway, as with every story about young Ms. Wie, this one is receiving plenty of early attention. Check out the comments section on the news story and you'll see that just by simply accepting the sponsor's exemption, she has drawn the ire of many golf fans already.

Crawfish Cornbread
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 45 mins
This recipe was in our local paper during the holidays. I haven't tried it yet but plan to soon. I have had a commercially made version of this and it was fairly good but I think homemade anything is much better! Hope you'll give it a try and let me know how you like it. Edited: I finally made this and it is a wonderful recipe. Many people don't have crawfish, so I think lightly boiled shrimp could easily be substituted for the crawfish. Also, 1/2 tsp cajun seasoning could be added for an extra kick.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 cups yellow cornmeal
- 3 eggs, slightly beaten
- 1 (14 ounce) can cream-style corn
- 1 1⁄2 cups grated cheddar cheese
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped fine
- 1⁄2 cup bell pepper, chopped fine
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 onion, chopped fine
- 1⁄2 cup cooking oil
- 3⁄4 cup chopped green onion
- 1 cup milk
- 1 lb cleaned crawfish tail
- Saute onions and bell pepper in a little butter, cooking until onions are transparent.
- Add jalapeno pepper and set aside.
- Mix all other ingredients, except for crawfish.
- Add onions and peppers, then crawfish.
- Pour into greased 9x13 pan and bake at 400 degrees for 35-45 minutes.

Mmm, mmmm good! DH loved it!! I used a drained can of Niblets corn instead of cream corn, and seasoned the crawfish with some Tony Chachere's creole seasoning and a little garlic salt before adding it to the cornbread batter. Trying to reduce prep time, I went for pre-shredded cheddar cheese. Thanks for sharing, it's a definite keeper!!
This is a great recipe. It's quite sound and leaves no room for error. My brother-in-law told me that he saw someone making crawfish cornbread on TV and asked me if I would make him a version of it. My sister does not do seafood at all. So, I researched several recipes and came across this one. I liked the distribution of ingredients as opposed to some recipes that only called for one cup of cornmeal. The only thing I did differently was season the crawfish tails with Old Bay before adding them to the batter. It made the cornbread more savory and flavorful. This is definitely my go to recipe for crawfish cornbread.
This is OUT OF THIS WORLD GOOD!!! I only used one small jalapeno, as I'm not much of a pepper fan. My brother came over for leftovers and I caught him in the kitchen scraping the pan and licking the spoon. The recipe is easy and is as good, or better than any other recipe I've used for crawfish cornbread. THANKS FOR SHARING!!!

From the Editor
As Linux approaches the fifth anniversary of its conception (in June), it is perhaps worthwhile to ask if it has been a success so far. It has certainly been far more successful than anyone originally thought it could be, as support for new hardware has increased tremendously and users all over the world number at least in the hundreds of thousands, and more likely in the millions. Is that success?
For those of us who use it every day to take care of all of our computing needs, Linux is a success regardless of the numbers of people and organizations who use it. Without even a magazine for its users, it would be a success. Without commercial applications, it would still be a success. Linux has nothing to prove.
But that doesn't mean that there is nothing to improve.
Linux is a success with technical people, and has been for a long time. Linux comes with a huge, well-understood tool box of programs for data manipulation and services. And for basic, well-understood services, the Linux distributions provide (more or less) out-of-the-box solutions. FTP services, WWW services, NFS file services, LPD print services, SMB/Lan Manager file and print services, and more all work out-of-the-box, or with a little configuration. In part because of this, Linux is seeing growing personal, corporate, educational, and governmental use.
So what's missing? Fairly obviously, as Linus Torvalds himself points out, a wide choice of desktop applications. But that's being worked on (native applications, Wine, DOSEMU, Executor) and nothing I could say would speed up any of those projects. Instead, I'd like to present one particular challenge for growth: the market for pre-configured ("works out-of-the-box") software that fills the needs of particular niche markets. If this challenge isn't met, Linux will still be a success; Linux use won't shrink. This is just an area in which Linux has the potential to be very useful, but where important pieces are still missing.
I'll use the example of Point Of Sale (POS) systems, since I know a little bit about them. It is very definitely possible for a technically competent person to use a Linux system to create a POS system. The goal is essentially to piece together a database with a terminal or network of terminals in order to quickly look up the prices of individual items and compute the total cost of a sale, as well as manage inventory and do financial transactions.
The standard Linux techie (call him Jon Hacker) answer runs something like this: "Oh, that's easy. Just build a database (flat text, DBM, Postgres 95, or one of the commercial databases for Linux) and write a program (Tcl/Tk for X, curses for text terminals) for a user interface. I could do that in a week. Then add things like credit card validation on-line, inventory control, etc. That could take, um, a while longer."
Jo Store Owner doesn't have a week. She isn't a guru, and she doesn't have a guru to write the system for her, either. And she's not going to hire Jon Hacker to write a POS system based on Linux, since she can buy a system that does meet her needs—though perhaps not as well as a customized system—which runs on DOS or Windows or Mac, and it will cost her less to get it up and running. It may not be as well customized for her business, and it may not even be flexible enough to customize, but it will work well enough for her, and to instead hire Jon Hacker would invoke the law of diminishing returns—it simply wouldn't be profitable.
However, if a POS package (free or commercial; it doesn't much matter) were available for Linux, and came configured intelligently, but used Linux tools to do the job and was therefore easily customized, it would be an attractive option. Joe might even hire Jon to customize it for him.
My point isn't really POS systems; there is already at least one complete POS system based on Linux. However, there are lots of niches like this that Linux is a great technology base for, but which don't have off-the-shelf solutions based on Linux yet, even though more free and commercial tools are available all the time. (Read comp.os.linux.announce and LJ's own New Products if you need convincing.) Being able to start doing something after running a simple installation (like a:setup under DOS and Windows) is the basis of meeting this challenge.
As I see it, this challenge is being met to some degree, but sporadically and piecemeal. My goal is merely to help popularize the idea of making Linux a useful business solution, and encourage Jon Hacker to search for and support niches in a way that Jo Store Owner can understand and trust. I'm not suggesting this to help Linux take over the world, but rather because I think that the technology available for Linux has lots of price/benefit potential for Jo and employment benefit for Jon, and because I think that the price pressure that Linux's low cost can provide will invigorate niche markets.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Skip to comments.Report: U.S. 'preparing the battlefield' in Iran
Posted on 06/29/2008 3:11:12 PM PDT by Perdogg
The Bush administration has launched a "significant escalation" of covert operations in Iran, sending U.S. commandos to spy on the country's nuclear facilities and undermine the Islamic republic's government, journalist Seymour Hersh said Sunday.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnn.com ...
SeyMAIer Herschbuckle is at it again.
Nice to know that this man is soooo important as to be informed by the Bush Administration what their plans are concerning Iran. /sarc
This is the 267 consecutive week Hersh has made that prediction.
At least he's consistent.
Everyone had better gas up ASAP. Anyone want to wager how long before oil reaches $200 per barrel?
Did Scott "Burger King" Ritter, Gnome Chomsky, Ward "Injun Chief" Churchill and Cindy "Mother Moonbat" Sheehan contribute to Hersch's report?
I want a crystal ball like he has.
CNN: Spying for the enemy since 1980.
Seymour Hersh has been posting made up Anti-American stories for decades. Some really leftist democrat has fed him the story about the 400 million.
I doubt if he knows much more than that. What he usually does is take one bit of accurate information that is supposedly secret and then blow it up with lies and anonymous sourced speculation.
What this tells me is that all those Democrats trashing what bush is doing to protect the USA are just playing politics with the issue. They want to win. So they claim there is no threat while voting for money to combat the (non existent) threat.
They think voters are too dumb to figure it out. But Democrats voting money for a war they say is unjustified, and voting money for espionage in a foreign countries they say is not a threat, shows us what liars the Democrats are.
And who would know better than Seymour...? (s/)
I stopped there......
I suspect there was mor cheering on 9/11 in the CNN offices than anywhere in the Middle East.
But are they setting the table or setting the stage?
Imanutjob has a buddy over here...
Probably just Jay Rockefeller.
I hope this jerkweed is right, but you gotta be a real gambler to put your money on any thing Seymour Hersh writes.
Seymore has sources at the CIA. If it came from Bob Woodward, then it cam from the Pentagon.
Seymour Hersh = treasonous POS. You would think that being Jewish he would appreciate the USA wacking the biggest threat to Israel. He lives and breaths in Manhattan. He lives in a liberal echo chamber
seymour hersch knows such secret stuff because he is a cunning runt.
AKA Seymour crap
As reliable as Debka.
If journalist Seymour Hersh reported this he most likely should be hung for sedition.
If it was anyone but Hersch I'd be encouraged that Bush is doing something. Unfortuntely, Sy is no longer a reporter; he's a Soros politcal hit man who makes sh*t up.
Sounds good to me!

Seymour Hersh Exposes New US Covert Operations In Iran (VIDEO)
Hersh is an anal wart.
senile syd has been saying this since 1/2005:
what's the saying?? throw enough sheet at the wall and eventually some of it will stick???
Israel is nothing if not thorough.
This is such utter BS. If the United States wanted to bring Iran to it's knees tomorrow morning, all that needs to be done is to inform each and every other nation on this damn planet that IF they engage in ANY financial transactions with Iran, that THEY will be banned from ANY financial transactions with the United States.
IF other nations grant Iran airline landing privileges at THEIR airports, the United States will revoke all overflight and landing privileges for THOSE nations.
Want to ramp it up some more?
ANY nations that continue to conduct normal diplomatic relations with Iran will no longer have normal diplomatic relations with the United States. We will recall our ambassadors, close our embassies with those nations choosing Iran over the U.S., expell THEIR ambassadors and staff and there will be no diplomatic contact unless and until they 'see the light'.
We inform the United Nations that they can either expel Iran from that august body, or they (the U.N.) can begin to pack their bags and GTF outta the United States within the next 14 days. We remind the U.N. that the United States and Iran are still in a technical state of war based on their invasion and occupation of our embassy in 1979, and we demand an unconditional surrender and the return of that violated U.S. soil in all of it's pre-1979 pristine condition.
If the U.N. wishes to remain within the borders of the United States, they'll play ball and eject Iran and further isolate those Islamofascists.
The United States Treasury freezes any and all assets it can locate belonging to Iran, and states clearly that those assets will remain frozen until Iran surrenders and/or regime change takes place and the mullahs and their little runt are swinging from ropes.
The United States puts Iran on notice that any and all Iranian vessels that come within range of United States Naval vessels will be considered legitimate targets and subject to sinking without warning. We further inform the Iranians that if they attempt to block the Straits of Hormuz through deliberate design or feigned 'accident', that it will result in the nuclear decimation of one or more of their cities, to be determined at the time of reprisal.
We are at war with Iran, we have BEEN at war with Iran, and it's about time we start acting like it, or run up the damn white flag of surrender ourselves and start learning how to say 'allah akbar' in Farsi.
'Preparing the Battlefield' my ass.
Let the damn battle be joined!
and the 4th time today.
It's interesting that along with the usual "unnamed sources" he actually has a named source: and Iranian general
Too much trouble. I'd rather just bomb them.
Less paperwork...
Hersh has correctly predicted 27 of the last 4 wars.
I wish it was that simple.
I think we and by extension Israel are in deep **** on this one. We are fairly alone in the conflict and if/when we hit Iran we are going to be hit back. We know that Russia wants to see the USA get taken down a few notches, as does China and most of their satellite states.
The other side has had several years now to analyze our stealth technology and tactics so we cant be absolutely sure anymore of how effective it will be in a conflict on the scale of Iran.
Iran has more options than we do right now.
Why doesn't CNN just send the report directly to Iran? Better still, why not interview the Supreme Leader, and ask for his reaction to reports that the US is conducting covert operations in his country?
"... journalist Seymour Hersh ..."
I wonder if our admin is using this old fool to make Iran nervous .. or Seymour's committing treason - AGAIN!!

For an updated box score, click here. For a complete game recap, click here.Instant analysis from the Rangers' 4-2 home win, cutting the Giants World Series lead to 2-1:• The change in location was apparent. In homer-happy Texas, all six runs were scored via the long ball. While the Giants only managed solo shots from Cody Ross and Andres Torres, the Rangers got a three-run blast from Mitch Moreland and Josh Hamilton.• San Francisco starter Jonathan Sanchez has now failed to get past the fifth in his last two starts after getting knocked out after 4 2/3 innings tonight, giving up all four runs.• Giants manager Bruce Bochy must be getting awfully nervous about his pitching plan in a possible Game 7. That would line up to be another Sanchez start, but the lefty has shown warning signs beyond the his final boxscore lines. It's how he's losing. He gave up two homers to lefty hitters after allowing just five to them all season, and his three walks were to nefarious freeswingers Bengie Molina (twice) and Vladimir Guerrero.• It's time Bochy also shook up his lineup a little. His No. 5 hitter, Pat Burrell, is now 0-for-9 with two walks and eight strikeouts, just five behind the World Series record of 13, set last by the Phillies' Ryan Howard. With Ross continued to hit well this month, he should slide up to fifth in the lineup, with Burrell falling at least one spot.At long last, Neftali Feliz took the mound. The Rangers rookie is their closer and their best reliever, but manager Ron Washington had declined to use him in a non-save situation in Games 1 or 2. Even tonight, Feliz should have entered with two outs in the eighth to face the Giants' best hitter, Buster Posey, who represented the tying run as there was a man on base. Instead, Darren O'Day got him to ground out, but Feliz showed his dominant stuff in the ninth, striking out Pat Burrell and Juan Uribe while getting a flyout from Cody Ross.Feliz threw 13 pitches in the ninth -- one slider and 12 fastballs, all between 96 and 99 miles per hour.Giants reliever Ramon Ramirez settled down from his poor Game 1 appearance -- two runs in one-third of an inning -- to get two outs in the eighth. One runner reached, but on an Edgar Renteria error. Ramirez got Vladimir Guerrero to pop out and Ian Kinsler to strike out.Ramirez is only in this situation because of his prior failure against AL teams. The Red Sox traded him for peanuts earlier in the year even though they were still in contention for a playoff spot.The bat of Giants centerfielder Andres Torres continues to come alive, as shown by his solo home run off Colby Lewis. Torres,San Francisco's breakout star, ranked 10th in the NL with 67 extra-base hits this year but slumped through the first seven games of the playoffs, batting just 3-for-26 and not starting the last game of that stretch.Torres then finished the last three games of the NLCS on a tear -- 6-for-10 -- but each of his first nine playoff hits was a single. In the World Series, however, some of the pop is returning to the massive 35-inch, 33-ounce bat he swings. He had doubles in each of the first two games of the World Series and now this homer.The Giants pitching and defense has again been good -- the difference in the game is just two bad Jonathan Sanchez pitches that led to home runs from Mitch Moreland and Josh Hamilton. Otherwise, Sanchez, Guillermo Mota and Jeremy Affeldt have induced double plays in each of the last three innings and have gotten 13-of-21 Texas outs on the ground. San Francisco's infielders have looked sharp turning them, especially the fifth-inning twin-killing which required Juan Uribe to field a tough hop at third and Freddy Sanchez make a difficult pivot throw.Cody Ross' solo home run put the Giants broke up Colby Lewis' shutout in the battle of players with similarly sounding -- and similarly chanted -- first names.But the real story of the inning was Pat Burrell's third strikeout of the game. The Giants left fielder is now 0-for-8 with two walks and seven strikeouts in the World Series. He is now only six strikeouts behind Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard's 13 strikeouts last year for the record of most in a single World Series.History! For the first time, notorious freeswingers Jeff Francoeur, Vladimir Guerrero and Bengie Molina all walked in the same game. Molina has actually walked twice, while Guerrero drew a free pass in the fifth inning off Jonathan Sanchez and Francoeur earned his in the sixth off reliever Guillermo Mota.Francoeur only walked once in his 15 games with Texas -- drawing a pass off Oakland's Dallas Braden in the eighth inning on Sept. 23 -- while Molina did not play and Guerrero did not walk.This season, among players with at least 400 plate appearances, Guerrero and Francoeur ranked first and second in percentage of pitches swung at -- 60.6 and 60.4 percent, respectively -- while Molina was No. 27 at 51 percent. In 2009, however, Guerrero, Molina and Francoeur ranked first, second and fourth in the majors in swing percentage.Colby Lewis continues to be a marksman. Consider:• He has thrown strikes on 54 of his 76 pitches, a rate of 71.1 percent.• He has started 17-of-21 batters with a first-pitch strike.• He has needed more than 14 pitches in an inning only once -- when he threw 20 in the first. Then again, four of his six swing-and-miss strikes were in the first.• In the last three innings, more than 84 percent of his pitches were strikes: 8-of 9-pitches were strikes (88.9 percent); 9-of-10 pitches were strikes (90 percent); 11-of-13 pitches were strikes (84.6 percent).Perhaps Jonathan Sanchez should have stuck to the fastball. It was only a matter before Rangers center fielder Josh Hamilton hit his first World Series home run, which he did in the fifth inning on a 2-1 slider, crushing it an estimated 426 feet to right-center field.Considering Hamilton's two previous at bats, one should think Sanchez shouldn't have thrown only off-speed pitches. In the first inning, Hamilton chased a first-pitch fastball at the top of the strike zone and popped out. In the third inning, Sanchez threw fastball/changeup/slider/fastball/slider, getting Hamilton to ground out to second after he fouled off both fastballs.In the fifth inning, however, Sanchez got gunshy and threw slider/change/change/slider, the last one landing beyond the fence for the Rangers' fourth run. Sanchez then walked Vladimir Guerrero on four pitches -- as sure a sign as any that a pitcher is rattled -- and his night was done, replaced by Guillermo Mota.As Colby Lewis continues to cruise -- another 1-2-3 inning, this time on 10 pitches -- what has to this point been a standard baseball crowd showed its local roots. As the Rangers jogged off the field, the public-address system played Fox's NFL intro music. And then the fans were implored to stand, wave their white Rangers towels and sing, "Deep in the heart of Texas." Tomorrow's game at the Ballpark in Arlington promises to be a lively affair, starting just a few hours after the locals' beloved Cowboys play across the street earlier in the afternoon. It's possible that new Cowboys quarterback Jon Kitna and tomorrow's Rangers starter, Tommy Hunter, have about the same level of recognition and indifference in this town.You don't need to be a hitting pro to decipher Jonathan Sanchez's pitching pattern from that inning. Against the first three batters of the inning -- righties Ian Kinsler, Jeff Francoeur and Bengine Molina -- Sanchez threw slider/slider/fastball as the first three pitches of each at bat. He struck out Kinsler and Francoer looking, but then walked Molina. Kinsler and Francoeur each struck out on three pitches: fouling sliders and taking fastballs.Colby Lewis keeps churning through the Giants' lineup with fewer and fewer pitches. How efficient is the Rangers starter? He needed 20 pitches in the first inning, 14 in the second, 10 in the third and just nine in the fourth -- all but one of his fourth-inning pitches was a strike, prompting an already aggressive San Francisco lineup to twice put the ball in play on the first pitch of an at bat, as Buster Posey singled and Cody Ross flew out.In a completely unrelated side note, SI swimsuit model Dominique Piek, the girlfriend of Rangers starter C.J. Wilson, is sitting one section in front of the auxiliary pressbox, making our viewpoints nearly identical.Bruce Bochy is at it again. The Giants manager called for Guillermo Mota to start warming up in the bottom of the third inning, about the time that Michael Young singled off starter Jonathan Sanchez. Bochy gave Sanchez such a quick hook in NLCS Game 6 -- the lefty lasted two innings and allowed two runs -- that he clearly worries about the game getting out of hand when he is on the mound. For whatever reason, Sanchez is the worst when facing a lineup the second time, allowing a .235/.339/.377 batting line. The first time through, opponents hit .178/.300/.320 and the third time they hit .198/.264/.333.No one's quite sure what Edgar Renteria was waiting for in that at bat against Colby Lewis. He stood in the box for five pitches and didn't swing a single time, taking three pitches and striking out looking. The third strike appeared to draw a disagreement from Renteria, though it appeared to be a slider that caught the outside corner.Renteria has walked on only 7.9 percent of career plate appearances and swung on 46.2 percent of all pitches, so it's not like him to zone in and wait for a particular pitch. But he's never faced the 6-foot-4 Lewis and hasn't played at the Ballpark in Arlington since 2008 -- when he played four games here as a Tiger -- so perhaps Renteria is having trouble picking up the ball out of Lewis' hand or against the backdrop.We're not in the National League anymore, Toto. Giants starter Jonathan Sanchez is usually contending with the pitcher in the No. 9 spot of the lineup. Nine-hole hitters facing Sanchez batted .114 this season and their only home run came from a pinch-hitter.But this is AL baseball, where Rangers manager Ron Washington has a loaded lineup and is able to bat first baseman Mitch Moreland ninth. Sanchez even had the lefty vs. lefty advantage -- he held them to a .181 average and five home runs in 138 at bats this year -- but Moreland had a terrific at-bat.Once the count went 2-and-2, Moreland fouled off four pitches, one of them crushed very far but a little foul, before hammering the ninth pitch he saw -- a down-and-in fastball -- into right field for a home run. Further showing how off his game Sanchez is and how locked in Moreland is at the plate, right now is this stat: Moreland was 4-for-20 with no homers off lefties this season.Pablo is as Pablo does. Giants manager Bruce Bochy settled on Pablo Sandoval as his designated hitter, and the switch-hitter did have a nice year from the left side of the plate, batting .282 with a .336 OBP and 12 home runs. But, despite the head start afforded to hitters in the left-handed batter's box, he grounded into 20 of his NL-leading 26 double plays from that side. That's what he did again to end the second inning, grounding into a 4-6-3.How out of sync is Sandoval now? He's 3-for-15 (.200) this postseason and though he normally devours fastballs, Sandoval his his grounder despite Rangers starter Colby Lewis feeding him three straight fastballs that all clocked sub-90 on the radar gun.Pat Burrell giveth and taketh away. The Giants left fielder nearly made one great catch that turned into a single, but did complete one dazzling catch to save a run.Rangers third baseman Michael Young lined a ball to left that Burrell came charging in on and dove for. The ball went into his glove for a moment, but popped out as he sprawled forward. Two batters later, however, Vladimir Guerrero smoked a ball into the left-field corner that should have been a run-scoring double if not for Burrell's full sprint catch, holding on this time as he collided with the wall.Burrell is not known for his speed or his glove and has been regularly replaced for defense in the postseason. But he's not incompetent: He did have an Ultimate Zone Rating of 4.9 this year -- meaning he saved nearly five runs above the average fielder -- which was fourth among NL left fielders with 600 or more innings.Since he did not play a full season in San Francisco, his sample size is a little small and does run directly counter to what he did in his final three seasons in Philadelphia, where he was atrocious with UZRs of -12.2, -20.8 and -8.9. The most likely explanation is that he is a better fielder now than a few years ago -- but the numbers may be skewed from having made several nice plays he doesn't always make in his relatively short Giants tenure.Rangers starter Colby Lewis slugged through a slow top of the first, throwing 20 pitches and allowing a single and a walk before striking out Pat Burrell to end the small threat -- and there were positive signs in the inning. Lewis got four swing-and-miss strikes, three of them on his breaking pitches, which shows an ability to fool the Giants hitters.One other atmosphere note: While the faint waft of marijuana smoke was evident in San Francisco's AT&T Park, the only smoke at the Ballpark in Arlington is the reside of pregame fireworks.Everything is bigger in Texas. Unlike the Giants' cozy AT&T Park tucked along a cove of San Francisco Bay, the Rangers' home, Ballpark in Arlington, shoots up out of the ground like a, well, normally I'd say football stadium, but given the Death Star that is the brand-new, $1.3 billion Cowboys Stadium across the street, that term no longer seems accurate.Blue- and red-clad Rangers fans were milling about local restaurants and the surrounding parking lots before even 1 p.m. local time, some five hours before World Series Game 3's first pitch. It's a tailgating football culture, after all, not to mention that the temperature hit 80 degrees this afternoon, a little warmer than even north-central Texas is used to this month.Not much pregame news, except that Rangers manager Ron Washington did not rule out the possibility of ace Cliff Lee pitching on three days' rest -- "There's a chance that anything could happen," Washington said -- and Giants manager Bruce Bochy insisted that Cody Ross would have been his starting right fielder in the playoffs even if Jose Guillen had not been linked to an HGH probe, as the New York Times reported Thursday.Otherwise, there were a few amusing signs in the crowd, including a Rangers fan holding a "Shear the Beard" posterboard and an amusing sign from the small pocket of Giants fans here: "Ring Around the Posey," noting the prospect of a World Series ring for catcher Buster Posey.The pitching matchup for this evening's game features Texas' Colby Lewis against the Giants' Jonathan Sanchez. While Sanchez was brilliant in his NLDS starts (seven innings, one run, 11 strikeouts), he lasted for only two innings and two runs in his second NLCS start. Lewis, meanwhile, went 2-0 against the Yankees in the ALCS, including an eight-inning, one-run performance in the clinching Game 6.Kelly Clarkson will sing the national anthem, and Rangers icon Nolan Ryan -- Hall of Famer pitcher, team president, co-owner and namesake for a nearby expressway -- will throw out the first pitch.

I recently lost some information from my host losing both my blogs. I have been trying to recover both blogs and so far only one is working correctly and has been restored.
The second domain\blog is what I am having trouble with. I installed via Fantastico and went through the very same steps as last time. The problem is when I access the site frequencysolutions.com, the page only contains text, and looks like it was created in 1997
Can someone let me know what is going on and whyat to look at? This is my main business site.
Thanks in Advance

I am continuing development on a C# code base written for .NET 2.0. The first thing I did was upgrade to Visual Studio 2012, only to discover that this requires upgrading my Setup projects to something called InstallShield Spring 2012 from Flexera Software. One of the head-scratchers this produces is the list of .NET Frameworks it supports: the lowest is 3.5, while 2.0 suffices for my application.
I don't intend to use any post-2.0 .NET features in my code. I do want to supply installers that will work on the widest possible range of machines.
Can I just assume that whoever can install my application will either have 3.5 SP1 already installed or have no problems with installing it?
If not, i.e. if there is a non-negligible class of prospective users who can install and run my .NET 2.0 application, but cannot or will not install the .NET 3.5 Framework, how can I best support those users?

Next tie 13-16 July 2016
Morocco have been relegated to Africa Zone Group III for 2016.
Last tie 17-19 July 2015
Morocco lost to Monaco 3-1 in a tie where each of the rubbers lasted four sets. Yassine Idmbarek got the visiting Moroccans off to a perfect start but Romain Arneodo hit back to tie the score after the first day. Monaco clinched Saturday's doubles before Benjamin Balleret was victorious over Lamine Ouahab to send Morocco down to Group III.
Morocco has reached the World Group three times, in 2001, 2002 and 2004, but lost in the first round on each occasion. It first played Davis Cup in 1961.

Every little bit helps . . . .
A reader and friend recently mentioned how she now springs for great cheeses and that better cheese makes a big difference.
In my life I've undergone a huge transformation in coming to value food, cooking, and all of their benefits. I'm still learning and changing daily.
One of the biggest leaps I think I took, and one of the hardest to instill in people, is to "realize" that no ingredient in a dish is too small to solicit care in buying. In other words, I started out only valuing the headliner of the night. Dropping cash on a great steak with a story (from a local farm, grass fed, etc.) and the supporting ingredients received no attention other than preparation.
The rest of the cast was somewhat carelessly plucked from regular supermarket shelves. So while the steak shined, the rest of the crew failed to support it. Mashed potatoes were run of the (food)mill piled next to roasted carrots that were blah at best.
Over time, Ive come to value every little thing that goes on a plate. That carrot especially, which can so easily be just a carrot, or can just as easily be so much more.
Yes, it will cost you a little more, but it will force you to simplify your process a little bit and do less to muddy the quality of what you've purchased. Always a great thing in the kitchen.

So true, so true. I hate going out for dinner and having a fabulous entree and the sides seem like an afterthought. It's almost as if some places think, "ok, they've ordered a steak, now what do we put with it?" Obviously you don't want your sides to outshine your entree, but restaurants need to step up their game with the sides.ReplyDelete
Its really beautiful when you eat something, and every single thing on that plate is the best thing you've ever tasted. The carrot is the best carrot, the potato is the best potato, the meat is the best meat. That's when you truely know that the meal is completely worth it.ReplyDelete
Top it off with a great glass of wine? That's my paradise.
You mentioned, in an earlier post, about how you would write your recipes. As you know, there are a gazillion cookbooks out there. You know what's NOT out there? How to buy good food. I bet you could make/sell videos on how to find good food (part of the challenge is how to find good food in more "out of the way" places, i.e., outside major cities).ReplyDelete
Love it! Nothing worse than to get a great steak and have a mediocre (at best) side with it. Cheese could easily be my passion coming from WI so I know you can't skimp on good cheese. Recently just paid $40/lb for 25 yr old cheddar! Would do it again in a heartbeat! I would love to hear more on the subject...!ReplyDelete
is this a taste you develop, because i will have to watch out for it next time i buy carrots from the farmers market, verse supermarket/trader joes organic carrots?ReplyDelete
