Hamilton's historic night ranks among best four-home run games
Story Highlights
Josh Hamilton recorded one of the five greatest hitting performances ever
Carlos Delgado (4-for-4, four homers) might have the only hitter's perfect game
Shawn Green's 6-for-6 game is the only one inarguably better than Hamilton's
When Josh Hamilton hit four home runs against the Orioles on Tuesday, he became just the 16th man in baseball history to accomplish the feat. More men (21) have thrown perfect games. Hamilton's performance was even more impressive than that, however. When you factor in the fact that Hamilton went 5-for-5 on the night, mixing a double in among his four homers, it could be argued that his was one of the handful of best single-game hitting performances in major league history.
The two most important things a hitter can do, independent of his teammates, is avoid outs and hit for extra bases. Four home runs add up to 16 total bases. Since 1918, just five men have had more than 16 total bases in a game. Hamilton is one of them. Nineteenth-century four-homer men Bobby Lowe and Ed Delahanty can be added to that list, but both fell short of Hamilton at 17 total bases. Only one man has ever hit for more total bases in a single game than Hamilton's 18. That was Shawn Green, who collected 19 for the Dodgers in 2002. Meanwhile, of the 17 men to have produced 16 or more total bases in a single game since 1918, plus Lowe and Delahanty, just eight did so without making an out. Hamilton is one of those eight as well.
That alone puts Hamilton's performance above the four-homer games of Lou Gehrig (4-for-6), Chuck Klein (4-for-5), Pat Seerey (4-for-6, BB), Willie Mays (4-for-5), Bob Horner (4-for-5), Mark Whiten (4-for-5) and Mike Cameron (4-for-5, HBP), all of whom had additional at-bats without collecting hits. It's also pretty easy to put Hamilton's game ahead of those of Lowe, Gil Hodges and Mike Schmidt, all of whom went 5-for-6 with four homers and a single, because Hamilton's extra hit was a double and he didn't make an out. Delahanty didn't make an out, going 5-for-5, but his extra hit was also a single, so Hamilton has him beat as well.
That alone puts Hamilton in the top five. Here's a quick look at his competition:
Rocky Colavito, Indians, June 10, 1959
Colavito drew a walk in the first inning, which coincidentally also came against the Orioles in Baltimore, then homered in his final four trips. That made him a perfect 4-for-4 with 16 totals bases, but a double is better than a walk.
PHOTOS: MLB's four-homer games
Carlos Delgado, Blue Jays, Sept. 25, 2003
Delgado, the last man to hit four homers in a game before Hamilton, is also the only man to hit a home run in his only four plate appearances in a game. Facing the Devil Rays at home, Delgado homered in the first, fourth, sixth, and eighth innings and would have been the fourth man due up in the bottom of the ninth had his Blue Jays not taken the lead in the eighth on his game-tying leadoff homer and Mike Bordick's subsequent two-run blast. The argument can be made that Delgado's performance was actually the greatest of all time, as he remains the only man ever to play a full nine-inning game and homer in every one of his plate appearances. I'll take 5-for-5 over 4-for-4, however, even if that 4-for-4 was, technically, the only truly perfect game a hitter has ever had.
Joe Adcock, Braves, July 31, 1954
Adcock is the only man ever to do exactly what Hamilton did Tuesday night, go 5-for-5 with four homers and a double, doing so against the Dodgers at Ebbets Field. Adcock's day went homer-double-homer-homer-homer. Hamilton went homer-homer-double-homer-homer.
Context could push Adcock ahead of Hamilton, as his outburst came later in the season against the team his Braves were directly below in the standings, whereas Hamilton's came early against a team from another division that is more pretender than contender. The Braves were in third place, nine games out of first place and six games behind the Dodgers coming into Adcock's big game, and the opposing starter was a 28-year-old Don Newcombe, who had been the National League Rookie of the Year in 1949 and would go 47-12 for the Dodgers over the next two seasons.
In 1954, however, Newcombe was just back from military duty, in the middle of arguably his worst season, and only lasted long enough in this game to give up one hit to Adcock. One could also argue that the game is tilted more toward the pitchers in May 2012 than it was in July 1954, and that Tuesday night's Orioles starter, Jake Arrieta, though he did give up six runs in 6 1/3 innings, five of them coming on home runs by Hamilton (twice) and Adrian Beltre (a solo shot immediately following Hamilton's second of the night), was pitching better than Newcombe in the Adcock game.
Shawn Green, Dodgers, May 23, 2002
Green is the only man to turn in a single-game performance clearly better than Hamilton's. Facing Glendon Rusch and the Brewers on a Thursday afternoon in Milwaukee's Miller Park, Green went 6-for-6 with four home runs, a double, a single, and a major league record 19 total bases. In sequence, Green's game went double-homer-homer-homer-single-homer. (For an in-depth breakdown of Green's hitting mechanics leading up to that game and his six at-bats in the game from the man himself, see his 2011 book The Way of Baseball: Finding Stillness at 95 MPH.) For my money, Green's was the greatest single-game hitting performance. The next best 6-for-6 performance in major league history saw the author hit three home runs, a double and two singles (16 total bases). Ty Cobb did that on May 5, 1925. The Mets' Edgardo Alfonzo matched it on Aug. 30, 1999. Two men have gone 7-for-7. The Tigers' Cesar Gutierrez had six singles and a double on June 21, 1970. The Pirates' Rennie Stennett had four singles, two doubles and a triple on Sept. 16, 1975. Stennett's performance accumulated just 11 total bases.
Some might argue that Delgado's perfect game was the greatest of all time, but Green's is the only performance that is inarguably superior to what Hamilton did on Tuesday night. That means Hamilton's performance was at worst one of the four greatest in major league history. I'd put it in the top three, ahead of Delgado's, and those who want to split hairs might even find a way to put it ahead of Adcock's as the second-greatest single-game hitting performance of all time.

(Latin Divisio Apostolorum), a feast in commemoration of the missionary work of the Twelve Apostles. It is celebrated as a double major on 15 July. The first vestige of this feast is found in the sequence composed for it by a certain Godescalc (d. 1098) while a monk of Limburg on the Haardt; he also introduced this feast at Aachen, when provost of the church of Our Lady. The sequence is authentic beyond doubt. It is next mentioned by William Durandus, Bishop of Mende (Rationale Div. Off. 7.15) in the second half of the thirteenth century. Under the title, "Dimissio", "Dispersio", or Divisio Apostolorum" it was universally celebrated during the Middle Ages in Spain and Italy. The object of the feast (so Godescalcus) is to commemorate the departure (dispersion) of the Apostles from Jerusalem for the various parts of the world, some fourteen years after the Ascension of Christ. According to Durandus some of his contemporaries honoured this feast the (apocryphal) division of the relics (bodies) of St. Peter and St. Paul by St. Sylvester. The feast is now kept with solemnity by modern missionary societies, in Germany and Poland, also in some English and French dioceses and in the United States by the ecclesiastical provinces of St. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Dubuque, and Santa Fé.

About Us
The Division of Abdominal Transplantation, under the direction of John A. Goss, M.D., the 19 faculty members and the staff of the division's Liver, Kidney and Pancreas Center support adult and pediatric transplant programs that provide transplantation services across the Texas Medical Center at St. Luke's Medical Center, Texas Children's Hospital, and the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center.
The liver transplantation program is one of the busiest in the nation. Since 1998, surgeons have performed over 1,300 transplants with outstanding results. In 2012, 105 liver transplants were performed with one of the highest survival rates in the country. The adult one-year patient survival rate was 96 percent, versus the national average of 87 percent.
Pediatric cases counted for 40 of the 105 liver transplants performed, making this program at Texas Children's the largest in the United States.
The pediatric one-year survival rate was 95 percent, compared to the national average of 88 percent.
The majority of adult kidney transplants take place at St. Luke's, where the one-year patient survival rate is 98 percent. Equally encouraging, the program's pediatric one-year survival rate is 100 percent for patients cared for at Texas Children's.
Given this track record of success, the division is now co-directing the Kidney Transplant Center at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center, one of only five VA centers to perform kidney transplantation for veterans.
The division's commitment to research, in part funded through National Institutes of Health grants and conducted at the Advanced Liver Therapies Research Center at St. Luke's, gives patients access to the latest clinical trials, including those testing therapies for chronic viral hepatitis B and C infections and treatments for thrombocytopenia in liver disease.

Welcome to Banking Banana Skins 2012, a unique survey of the risks facing the industry, which has been produced by the CSFI in association with PwC. The overall response of this year's survey showed that the Canadian economy and banking system are seen to be in better shape than in many other countries, though concern about contagion from more troubled economies, particularly the US and Europe, is clouding the outlook.
Most of the top risks identified by Canada were in line with those in the global ranking: macro-economic risk, funding issues and regulation.
The survey received more than 700 responses from individuals in 58 countries, including more than 40 from Canada.

Home > Health & Wellness > Health Library > Preeclampsia: Creatinine Clearance Test
When muscles use energy, they release a waste product called
creatinine into the blood. The kidneys then filter creatinine from the blood.
From the kidneys, creatinine passes out of the body through the urinary tract.
If the kidneys are not functioning normally, high amounts of creatinine remain
in the blood while low amounts are passed out in the urine.
During a normal pregnancy, increased blood volume and kidney function
cause an increase in the amount of creatinine filtered out of the blood and
passed into the urine. A measurement of this amount is called the
creatinine clearance value. If the kidneys are damaged
preeclampsia, the creatinine clearance value decreases
because the kidneys are filtering less creatinine out of the blood. The amount
of kidney damage can be estimated by the amount of decrease in the creatinine
clearance value.
The creatinine clearance test requires a blood sample and a sample of
all the urine collected for 24 hours (24-hour urine sample).
For more information, see the topic Creatinine and Creatinine

We're pretty sure that the world isn't going to end on Friday, Dec. 21. And we're not the only ones. NASA has also explained why the long-debated "Mayan 2012 Doomsday" won't happen.
But with all this hubbub over the Mayan 2012 prophecy, we have to ask: How would you spend your last day in your town, if you knew the world was coming to an end?
Before you answer, we'd like you to pretend that despite the looming apocalypse, all of the area's restaurants and hot spots remained open for business and the roads out of town were blocked off.
Would you stay at home with your family?
Would you head out one last time to order your favorite meal at a local restaurant?
Would you catch the last performance of your favorite local band?

We discuss recent empirical research on how globalization has affected income inequality in developing countries. We begin with a discussion of conceptual issues regarding the measurement of globalization and inequality. Next, we present empirical evidence on the evolution of globalization and inequality in several developing countries during the 1980s and 1990s. We then examine the channels through which globalization may have affected inequality discussing theory and evidence in parallel. We conclude with directions for future research.

Destination Guide: Prague
Bohemian cafés and a skyline of spires
Lose yourself in a maze of cobblestoned backstreets and Romanesque architecture. Stroll across lamp-lit bridges or glide along the River Vltava at twilight.
Food and Drink
Dine on hearty Czech dishes in Baroque surroundings. Combine dinner with river views in Kampa or try wild game or pork schnitzel in medieval cellars off the Old Town Square. Summertime beer gardens and 19th-century teahouses dripping with chandeliers fill the Old and Lesser Towns.
Sightseeing and relaxation
Meander down backstreets and count the spires from up high. Climb shop-lined Nerudova lane to explore Prague Castle and its clutch of churches and monuments. Relax in the hidden Wallenstein gardens, or take in the city's skyline from Petrin Hill's mini Eiffel Tower. Beguiling lanes wind downhill to Lesser Town and the exhilarating walk across Charles Bridge. Admire Art Nouveau at the Mucha Museum and Municipal House.
Shop for Czech crystal and handicrafts. Source classic lead crystal on tree-lined Parizska Boulevard. Or take home red garnet gemstones from the Old Town and vintage treasures from Vltavska market. Artisans sell handmade puppets in stores lined with marionettes in Lesser Town.
Nightlife and Entertainment
Combine chamber music with sumptuous surroundings. Hear Mozart at the Estates Theatre, where the maestro himself conducted, or be surrounded by golden embellishments and organ harmonies at recitals in St Nicholas Church. While away evenings in the Old Town's basement jazz clubs.

If you could prevent the onset of adult illnesses like cancer, type 2 diabetes and dementia wouldn't you want to? How far would you go to keep you and your family healthy?
Dr. Terry Whals, a physician, reversed the symptoms of her Multiple Sclerosis by eating a diet rich in micro-nutrients. She researched the elements human bodies need to maintain cell health and figured out which foods to eat and how much. She calls it the Wahls Diet (tm).
The Whals diet in a nutshell:
Once you eat your nine cups of fruits and vegetables with a serving of meat and minerals you can eat additional food if you need it for calories.
The kicker I didn't include in my nutshell: no gluten, eggs, dairy, aspartame or MSG.
- diabetes
- heart disease
- arthritis
- cancer
- autism
- depression
- learning disabilities
- obesity
- Nerve degeneration diseases like multiple sclerosis
Only you can provide your body with the building block for your cells so that they can do the work of restoring your health and vitality.
- Dr. WahlsWhat I like about this diet is the science behind it. Whals has researched and identified elements in cells and their quantities and deduced what and how much we need to eat to make sure our bodies are well supplied. This is not an eat like a caveman because cavemen were healthy. Although there are many similarities between paleo diets and the Wahl's diet. This is not a diet to lose weight where it boils down to "eat less". Although if you follow her diet I would image a healthy weight would come as part of it. I also like that Dr. Wahls says she doesn't know all the answers. She points out there are probably many unidentified micro-nutrients that meat, vegetables and fruit provide for our bodies. By eating a varied diet and meat from animals who also ate a varied diet we will give our bodies everything they need to function well. We don't have to wait until we have serious health problems to think about health. I have a baby and right now all the food she gets is through my breast milk. As she builds her brain and body I don't want her to lack any of the nutrients to develop and be healthy. This little girl makes me more proactive for myself.

"We received a beautiful invitation, excellent print and color quality, unique design. The web site is user friendly and makes it really easy to design the invitation. Every one who was invited to Bar Mitzvah or who just saw the invitation were really impressed. Some friends are planning to order cards and invitations to their events from Tiny Prints. I highly recommend Tiny Prints, we had a great experience."
"This card is absolutely gorgeous. I ordered 155 pcs with the matching response cards and people were amazed at the quality and how unique this card is. My son has a tennis theme so I inserted pictures of him playing and on the back a picture of him on the tennis couch at the US Open for the long horizontal picture. Love that no one else I know has used this card. So happy with it."
"The invite lets you put in your own wording, do formatting, and lets you know if it will fit or not. This is very cool feature. The ability to use the picture in invite also adds a special touch. Great design and quality!!!"
"This was a beautiful invitation and was sized to not require any additional postage! Liked that I was asked twice to verify if my information was correct."

The National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame (NFF) announced that Penn State Athletics Director Tim Curley has been named the 2011 recipient of the John L. Toner Award.
One of the top honors that a college athletics administrator can receive, the Toner Award is presented annually by the NFF to an athletics director who has demonstrated superior administrative abilities and shown outstanding dedication to college athletics and particularly college football.
Curley has presided over Penn State athletics since 1993, and his leadership has resulted in 21 NCAA and 64 Big Ten championships and numerous individual national and conference crowns for the Nittany Lions during his tenure. His passion for winning has also extended to the classroom with the NCAA reporting in 2010 that Penn State student-athletes compiled a school-record 90 percent Graduation Success Rate, 11 points higher than the national average for schools in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision. Penn State has had 116 CoSIDA Academic All-Americans under Curley's leadership.
Curley currently manages a $105 million annual budget and a varsity sport program that will expand from 29 to 31 men's and women's varsity teams in 2012-13. He pioneered the expansion of Beaver Stadium in 2001, pushing the capacity to 107,282, which ranks second nationally.
Curley is a two-time Northeast Athletic Director of the Year honoree by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics, and he served as the NACDA president for 2005-06. This past year, he was among five finalists for the Sports Business Athletic Director of the Year.
Curley, a Penn State alumnus, began his career with the Nittany Lions' athletic department by selling game programs and serving as the baseball team's batboy. Before becoming athletics director, he served as his predecessor Jim Tarman's top assistant.
Curley will be honored at the NFF 54th Annual Awards Dinner on Dec. 6 at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City.
Past recipients of the John L. Toner Award include:
1997 − John L. Toner (Connecticut)
1998 − Doug Dickey (Tennessee)
1999 − Jake Crouthamel (Syracuse)
1999 − Davey Nelson (Delaware)*
2000 − Frank Broyles (Arkansas)
2001 − Milo R. "Mike" Lude (Washington)
2002 − Bill Byrne (Oregon, Nebraska, Texas A&M)
2003 − Andy Geiger (Brown, Penn, Stanford, Maryland, Ohio State)
2003 − John Clune (Air Force)*

Cancer Health Center
Clinical Management of BRCA Mutation Carriers
Digital mammography refers to the use of a digital detector to find and record x-ray images. This technology improves contrast resolution,[18] and has been proposed as a potential strategy for improving the sensitivity of mammography. A screening study comparing digital with routine mammography in 6,736 examinations of women aged 40 years and older found no difference in cancer detection rates;[19] however, digital mammography resulted in fewer recalls. In another study (ACRIN-6652) comparing digital mammography to plain-film mammography in 42,760 women, the overall diagnostic accuracy of the two techniques was similar.[20] When receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were compared, digital mammography was more accurate in women younger than 50 years, in women with radiographically dense breasts, and in premenopausal or perimenopausal women.
In a prospective study of 251 individuals with BRCA mutations who received uniform recommendations regarding screening and risk-reducing, or prophylactic, surgery, annual mammography detected breast cancer in six women at a mean of 20.2 months after receipt of BRCA results.[7] The Cancer Genetics Studies Consortium task force has recommended for female carriers of a BRCA1 or BRCA2 high-risk mutation, "annual mammography, beginning at age 25 to 35 years. Mammograms should be done at a consistent location when possible, with prior films available for comparison."[9] Data from prospective studies on the relative benefits and risks of screening with an ionizing radiation tool versus CBE or other nonionizing radiation tools would be useful.[21,22,23]
Certain observations have led to the concern that BRCA mutation carriers may be more prone to radiation-induced breast cancer than women without mutations. The BRCA1 and BRCA2 proteins are known to be important in cellular mechanisms of DNA damage repair, including those involved in repairing radiation-induced damage. Some studies have suggested intermediate radiation sensitivity in cells that are heterozygous for a BRCA mutation, but this is not consistent and varies by experimental system and endpoint. A large international case-control study of 1,601 mutation carriers described an increased risk of breast cancer (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.54) among women who were ever exposed to chest x-rays, with risk being highest in women age 40 years and younger, born after 1949, and those exposed to x-rays only before age 20 years.[24] In contrast, two studies of the effect of mammogram exposure on carriers (n = 1,600, n = 162) did not support an association between such exposure and subsequent breast cancer risk.[25,26] In a small study,[26] there was a modest association between lifetime mammogram exposure and risk in BRCA1 mutation carriers (HR = 1.08, P = .03). No significant effect was seen after exclusion of postdiagnosis mammograms. With the routine use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in BRCA1/BRCA2 mutation carriers, any potential benefit of mammographic screening must be carefully weighed against potential risks, particularly in young women.[27] However, at this time there is insufficient evidence to suggest that mutation carriers should avoid mammography, particularly since some breast cancers are identified by mammography and not MRI.

There is a growing relationship between the requirements listed above. For example, in order to implement an appropriate level of security, an IT organization may implement encryption. However, the fact that the information flow is encrypted may preclude the IT organization from implementing the optimization techniques that are required to ensure acceptable performance.
IT organizations need to plan for optimization, security and management in an integrated fashion.
At the same time that many IT organizations are still in the process of implementing solutions that respond to the first generation of application delivery challenges such as supporting chatty protocols or transmitting large files between a branch office and a data center, a second generation of challenges is emerging.

Just Do It: DIY Project #1- Cartoon Trousers
With a month long holiday in India coming up, I knew I had to get some stand-out holiday wear. I thought about the different eras of recreational wear and began racking the (fashion) history books for inspiration- jumpsuits, capri pants, high-waisted slacks, kaftans, tunics, dungarees…the list goes on. But then, as with all moments of fashion genius, America's Next Top Model came on the telly and I was reminded of the genius that is Jeremy Scott.
As a result I was led to a picture of a friend wearing a pair of Jeremy's cropped print trousers and I fell in love. In order to recreate the look, I bought a pair of Topman's cartoon-print pyjama bottoms (£15) and tied bits of string around my lower legs. I then folded the pyjama fabric under the string to achieve a cropped effect.
Because the print is so loud, you should stick to basic items in muted colours. And even if you don't get the look that you wanted, I assure you that making the trousers is almost as much fun as wearing the finished edition anyway.

So, I have been running with a hacked ATV for months, and been greatly satisfied, only bugger was that I had to remount SMB shares manually everytime a connection was lost. So I thought, why not try ATVPatch as it was suddenly posted freely on their website. I used v2.4. It didn't install anything, and after a retry (which failed and suggested that I had to do a factory default again before reflashing), it boots with an atv4windows logo saying that something has gone wrong, try repatching. It boots into my ATV though but I'm not able to do a factory default, neither from the Settings menu or the diagnostics menu (6 sec menu and -) - in fact, the latter won't boot). None of the hacks appears to be installed, neither do I have SSH or telnet access. Have anyone experienced this?
What to do now? I suspect that the recovery image (v 1.0) is still intact (and in case it's not, I have a backup in a dmg file, recovery.dmg as used frequently out there). I would think that the ATVPatch is someway has simply altered the partition table or bootloader.
My theory is, that it somehow should be possible to create an old-school patchstick and thus enable ssh. From there the bootloader or recovery partition could be restored in someway. Does anyone have an oppinion on this approach, or alternative suggestions?
Some info about the system:
40 GB ATV, originally with the 1.0 firmware.
Currently running 2.0.2. Was entirely defaulted before ATV Patch update
It connects to iTunes without problems
I'm running OS X 10.5 on an MBP in case any files might be needed.
I'd greatly appreciate if anyone would spare a couple of minutes, thanks a lot guys

William Shakespeare – Sonnet 54Follow
O! how much more doth beauty beauteous seem
By that sweet ornament which truth doth give.
The rose looks fair, but fairer we it deem
For that sweet odour, which doth in it live.
The canker blooms have full as deep a dye
As the perfumed tincture of the roses,
Hang on such thorns, and play as wantonly
When summer's breath their masked buds discloses:
But, for their virtue only is their show,
They live unwoo'd, and unrespected fade;
Die to themselves. Sweet roses do not so;
Of their sweet deaths are sweetest odours made:
And so of you, beauteous and lovely youth,
When that shall vade, my verse distills your truth.

Bob Labozetta '69, MA '75 writes: "After 33+ years teaching at the secondary and lately the community college level, I have retired my chalk and white board pens, closed my grading software, and boxed my PowerPoint presentations and lessons. The last six years my wife, Susan, and I resided in Oregon, and last summer decided to chuck it all and travel full-time. We sold our home and most of our possessions, bought a motorhome, and now see the USA (but not in a Chevrolet). While Susan continues her art (sculpture), I may put my SCU education to work by writing who-knows-what. Figuring out how to brew beer on the road, fishing across this great land, and viewing historical sites that I discussed in the classroom but never took the opportunity to visit are prominent objectives as well."

It is known the fact that, for some webmasters and not only, earning lots of money with online casino affiliate program isn't something uncommon at all. Well, which is the best affiliate program? No one can tell, as it depends of the efforts of the webmasters, and of course, it depends of the quality of the services provided. However, maybe the best method of earning money online is to use the services of an online casino affiliate program.
Basically, with the affiliate program, the casino gets more clients – and therefore, it gets more receipts. And, in order to be fair, the casino will share some of its earnings through the online casino affiliate program. Nowadays, these programs are known as the "pot of gold" of the whole Internet, as no other program can make payments as big as such an online casino affiliate program can. The only problem that is appearing in most of the times, the webmasters are promoting the bad online casinos, casinos which have problems with payments or which do not pay at all.
In order to choose the perfect online casino affiliate program and the most suitable for the webmaster, one should search for payments proofs and also, should search for other's people advice, people who have used or who are still using that online casino affiliate program.
But how is a such online casino affiliate program really working? Basically, after a webmaster has joined such a programs, he will start to promote that certain casino. The users that he will send to the casino will be carefully supervised by cgi codes/cookies, that allow the casino to see them as referrers of the webmasters who is the casino's partner in the online casino affiliate program.
Usually the casino is paying quite a big share from its earnings. In most of the cases, this share ranges somewhere from 30 50%. So, let's think this straight: if a webmasters refers a member who will spend $1000 at that casino, without earning anything – and this thing happens quite often-, the webmaster will earn $500 just from one person. If he refers other big spenders, he will get bigger and bigger receipts from the online casino affiliate program.
How is such an online casino affiliate program promoted correctly? Basically, such a program is promoted in the classic ways: text link, banners, network of blogs and so on. Though, they key to success is only given by hard work, and by promoting only casinos that are honest, and that do not have any problems at all with the payments. Because the competitors are always improving their marketing, a webmaster who has joined such an online casino affiliate program will have to work every day more and more, in order to achieve success.
Affiliate Marketing is a marketing practice in which affiliate get paid to promote advertisers offers. Affiliate programs are easy way to monetize your website traffic or to earn more money by purchasing advertisements on high traffic websites.

801 5TH Ave, San Diego, CA | Directions 9210132.713809 -117.160022
Neighborhoods: Central San Diego, Gaslamp, Central
OVERPRICED SUBPAR FOOD AND TERRIBLE SLLLLLLLOOOOOOOWWWWWW SERVICE – BEWARE: THERE IS AN AUTOMATIC 18% GRATUITY FOR POOR SERVICE. SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE AND EXTREMELY SLLLLLOOOOWWWW. I recently had a birthday dinner there for 15 people and had made reservations at 8pm. We were assured to be seated immediately when half of our party was there, but my entire party arrived on time and we were still not seated. We got seated at 8:50pm. I asked the hostess serveral times when we'll be seated given that there were tables open and a good number of servers running around.The hostess appeared oblivious and uncaring of our situation. She repeatedly said there was nothing she could do. After we had been seated and ordered our food another party of 10 ten that was seated 20 minutes AFTER we had been seated, received all their food at the same time before our table did. When our food finally started trickling in an hour later, one dish came at a time 10-15 minutes apart. So it was territble because we didn't eat together as a group. The first person was long done with their food when others had not even received their order. Our server was difficult to flag done and we constantly had to beg for water and refills. BOTTOMLINE: UNLESS YOU WANT TO WAIT FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS FOR OVERPRICED SUBPAR SUSHI, SO CALLED HAWAIIAN FOOD, AND INSUFFICIENT SERVICE, THEN THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU!!!
Kahlua Pork rocks! – My husband and I were roaming around Gaslamp looking for a place to eat. We were headed to Croce's when we found this place right across the street. We decided to eat here instead based solely on the Kahlua Pork Quesadilla. The ambience is totally fun. Our waitress was a bit on the slow side but all other servers were fantastic! The Kahlua Pork Quesadilla was excellent and would've been enough for us had we known how big it was going to be. We also did the Dim Sum sampler and a sushi roll plus dessert. I didn't like the dessert selection and could've done without the dim sum, but the sushi was real good. But, if I ever went back it would be solely for the Kahlua Pork Quesadilla.
drinks yum – the drinks are so tasty and not that pricey and the service was slow but very nice and friendly, the decor was amazing and the drummer boy was fun to watch.
The islands come to life in this Gaslamp tribute to Tiki tradition. Portions are perfect for sharing. – In Short
Whether paying homage to Don Ho or donning a grass skirt, Mister Tiki offers a slice of island life in the heart of the Gaslamp. A rare theme bar in the trendy district, the totem poles remind patrons of tiki customs like sharing, which is encouraged when ordering from the Pacific Rim-flavored menu. Order pu-pus and dim sum, and wash them down with the Mondo Martiki, the house special drink that serves four.
Great casual atmosphere, fun drinks! – This is one of my favorite places to wind down on a Friday night. The varied polynesian-style menu provides something for everyone, from soup to sushi. And although the food is casual and uncomplicated, it's still absolutely delicious. But the best thing about Mister Tiki Mai Tai Lounge is the drinks. With cheeky names (Horny Monkey, anyone?) and fruity flavors, you can't go wrong with any of their concoctions. Great fun for everyone!

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
This is a large and varied assortment of solitary wasps consisting of several families. When at rest, the wings of these wasps do not appear pleated (unlike Vespid wasps). They all possess stingers, which are used for self-defense and to paralyze prey. Sphecid wasps visit many kinds of wildflowers. Astatinae (Astatinine Wasps): These wasps prey on stinkbugs; they are not common flower visitors. Bembicinae (Sand Wasps): These stout wasps dig burrows in loose soil, and often nest gregariously. They are yellowish or tan wasps with brown or black markings, particularly on the abdomen. They prey on flies, small bees, plant bugs, or caterpillars. One species, Sphecius speciosus, preys on cicadas and is known as the "Cicada Killer." Crabroninae (Crabronine Wasps): These wasps usually prey on flies, although some prey on plant bugs. Important groups include Anacrabro spp., Crabro spp., Ectemnius spp., and Oxybelus spp. Larrinae (Larrine Wasps): Important groups in this family are Tachytes and Tachysphex spp. (Sand-Loving wasps), which prey on grasshoppers, and Ancistromma spp., which prey on crickets. Many of these species favor open sandy areas, and dig extensive burrows for the brood cells. Philanthinae (Philanthine Wasps, Bee Wolves Beetle Wasps): The Philanthus spp. are black with yellow markings, and are called "Bee Wolves." They attack worker bees (often Halictid bees), which they paralyze and carry back to the nest. Another important group consists of the Cerceris and Eucerceris spp., which attack the larvae of various weevils and beetles. They are large-sized, brown, with cream markings or stripes, and dig nests in the ground around their prey. Sphecinae (Sphecine Wasps): These wasps are small to large-sized, black, brown, or blue, with white or yellow markings. They usually construct nests underground, but some species make tunnel-like mud nests, which are affixed to rocks, buildings, and other protected places. Important groups are the slender Ammophila spp. (Thread-Waisted Wasps), which prey on moth and sawfly larvae; Chlorion spp. (Cricket-Hunter Wasps), which prey on crickets; Sceliphron spp. (Mud Daubers), which prey on spiders; and Prionyx and Sphex spp. (Digger Wasps), which prey on grasshoppers. An example of the latter is Sphex ichneumonea (Great Golden Digger Wasp).
