CHARLOTTE, N.C. – College Football Performance Awards, the largest awards organization in D-I college football, recently announced its watch list for the 2014 CFPA FCS Defensive Back Award, and a nation-best two Stetson Hatters earned spots on the list.
Chris Atkins and Donald Payne earned spots on the list. The preliminary watch list highlights 38 returning performers, vying for the top defensive back honor in the Football Championship Subdivision.
"Congratulations to Chris Atkins and Donald Payne on earning spots on the 2014 CFPA Watch List," said CFPA Executive Director Brad Smith. "Atkins and Payne will be among the top players to watch in the PFL this season."

For years I used to just tip bags upside down and hope for the best. Some went in my mouth which was brill but sometimes it also went in my eye this was not so good. After a usual trip to the docs with an eye infection he suggested I use a scoop. I searched high and low and suddenly I found this beauty. Not only has this revolutionised how I eat I'm pretty sure it's saved my sight. Thank you my protein Goes Well With:Food in packets
It's good to keep a spare scoop especially when you loose yours in the bottom of the bag/container! It took me a while to find my tiny scoop so i ordered a couple of all sizes just in case. It's not something that will break, unless you go for it, but it's always good to keep a spare one just in case!Goes Well With:Everything
Was extremely excited to test this little baby out and when it arrived I was overjoyed, jumped straight into bed! My god it's the best thing thats ever happened to me! Finding the perfect little spoon has changed my life! Would recommend to any big spoons! Thank you MyProtein!Goes Well With:Napping, Netflix and sleeping
The mini-scoop performs it's job of measuring the correct amount of supplement.
Bought this as a scoop for MSM use as it was what was recommended but when I opened the MSM itself there was already one of these scoops inside so have now got 2! Cant argue with my proteins scoops as it allows you to get your measurements spot on.
Just what you need for measuring out the right amount of your supplements even when its a very small amount
It's a scoop, what else do you need to know. Well, the fact that it's tiny is one thing. It holds 0.5g so don't be fooled into thinking it'll do anything but frustrate unless you are looking to measure out really small quantities.Goes Well With:Midgets, dwarves and leprechauns.
Much easier to use than my previous supplement delivery method, which saw me licking a protein bar than dipping it into my bag of creatine like a super-gains sherbert dib-dab. By far and away my favourite spooning experience (sorry Big Dave).Goes Well With:Anything that requires a good scooping.
As the famous saying goes, it does no more, no less than what its supposed to do, measures your supplement with no fuss or mess. Keep up the good work My Protein. Goes Well With: supplements
Scoop wasn't blue like the picture, however it is extremely effective. I did have some trouble at first but a friend kindly pointed out to me I was trying to use it upside down. Once I was operating the scoop effectively it provided me nothing but measuring pleasure, A+ would scoop again. Goes Well With:Things you only need a tiny amount of.
Hi all i bought this scoop to measure my creatine. Before this i just used to try and pour the creatine onto my scale and measure 25 grams that i need to take a day.But now its all changed, this scoop works wonders, its perfect, its like a spoon but its got sides i can to stop my creatine falling out or being blown away if I'm outside, in the wilderness. Only problem is that i need to but a few more, to mesure my protein,bcaa,and jasmine super recovery powder. Thanks guysGoes Well With:other spoons of bigger and smaller sizes
I bought this scoop to measure electrolyte powder, without it I couldn't guess how much I was using!Goes Well With:Electrolyte Powder Small Scoop Large Scoop
Easy to measure the right amount of protein or any other supplement.
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop is a spoon which works!Goes Well With:Things that fit in spoons.
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop could have a shallower bottom for better scooping in my opinion.
It's a 0.5ml / 0.5g spoon. Not much to say.Goes Well With:stuff and things
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop is exactly what it says it is... but allow for the fact that this is a very small measure and would only be used for the very, very small servings. To the naked eye it looks about a 1/4 of a teaspoon.
Before this Myprotein Plastic Scoop I was a lost man, I used to use my hands and the protein just fell through my fingers and I was an unhappy guy, but now I have complete control over my protein. Thanks Myprotein and keep up the good work.Goes Well With:anything really
What can you say? The Myprotein Plastic Scoop is a 5ml scoop. It scoops up 5ml worth of powder or if you only half fill it it can be used as a 2.5ml scoop so you get two scoops for the price of one. This is a bargain!Goes Well With:Any powder product
After buying Electrolyte Powder and Taurine I needed a scoop and this is a nice cheap measurement! Only thing i will say is there was no real "packaging", it was just a tiny spoon floating round in the big box and could easily get lost!
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop does the job!
Useful for measuring out powders.
Scoop certainly scoops things but needs a longer handle.
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop (Mini) is very good.
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop (Mini) is great for measuring out very small quantities of supplements.Goes Well With:Acetyl L Carnitine powder, Arginine Alpha Keto Glutarate powder
Perfect for measuring all your products although it would be easier to use if it had a longer handle and was not the same colour as the powder.Goes Well With:All the powdered supplements
It does it's job! should probably be included with most of the products it's designed for.
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop (Mini) is what it is. It's a nice cheap price.Goes Well With:powders.
Cheap, does the job. For small dose powders (milligrams), volume is 50 times smaller than shot glass.Goes Well With:caffeine powder, multi vitamin powder
Myprotein Plastic Scoop (Mini) is the perfect product! Does exactly what it should.Goes Well With:Any powder
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop is the perfect scoop for the very small doses.
If you buy a 0.5ml scoop, why expect it to be big. The scoop is ideal for supplements like vitamins and caffeine where doses are less than one gram...caffeine dosage is 200mg which is less than one of these scoops, therefore the scoop is clearly useful.Goes Well With:Caffeine
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop is cheap and does what it's made for. I have no complaints.Goes Well With:Pulse V4
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop (Mini) looks different to the image, but it still does the job.
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop (Mini) really works.
Handy little scoop for measuring the Vitamin C powder. Cheap to buy but invaluable! Goes Well With: Any supplement requiring small, accurate measures.
Great little scoop which makes using the powdered supplements a breeze!
Myprotein Plastic Scoop (Mini) great because you know your getting the exact measurements required, but... considering the big scoops are included in the Protein powders I can't see why these can't be included in the Taurine/Creatine packs. It's so small. Also because of the pack to scoop ratio it could do with having a bigger handle as you basically have to put your whole hand in the bag to scoop the contents. Don't get me wrong though, its good because as mentioned you know your not having too much of the supplement. P.S. the scoop looks nothing like the picture, if anyone has brought the protein bags... imagine one of the large scoops just much, much smaller.
The Myprotein Plastic Scoop does what it says it will. I have no complaints. This is another great, safe and durable product from Myprotein.
Vital for products such as superfood xs
It was my mistake for ordering this. What was I thinking? I don't know what you would use a 0.5ml scoop for except for maybe feeding your small plant, plant food. It's useless as far as I can tell. Again what was I thinking?

Arterial embolism is a sudden interruption of blood flow to an organ or body part due to a clot (embolus).
An embolus is a blood clot or a piece of plaque that acts like a clot. Emboli means there is more than one clot or piece of plaque. When the clot travels from the site where it formed to another location in the body, it is called an embolism.
An arterial embolism may be caused by one or more clots. The clots can get stuck in an artery and block blood flow. The blockage starves tissues of blood and oxygen. This can result in damage or tissue death (necrosis).
Arterial emboli often occur in the legs and feet. Emboli that occur in the brain cause a stroke. Ones that occur in the heart cause a heart attack. Less common sites include the kidneys, intestines, and eyes.
Risk factors for arterial embolism include:
Another condition that poses a high risk for embolization (especially to the brain) is mitral stenosis. Endocarditis (infection of the inside of the heart) can also cause arterial emboli.
A common source for an embolus is from areas of hardening (atherosclerosis) in the aorta and other large blood vessels. These clots can break loose and flow down to the legs and feet.
Paradoxical embolization can take place when a clot in a vein enters the right side of the heart and passes through a hole into the left side. The clot can then move to an artery and block blood flow to the brain (stroke) or other organs.
If a clot involves the arteries supplying blood flow to the lungs, it is called a pulmonary embolus.
You may not have any symptoms.
Symptoms may begin quickly or slowly depending on the size of the embolus and how much it blocks the blood flow.
Symptoms of an arterial embolism in the arms or legs may include:
Later symptoms:
Symptoms of a clot in an organ vary with the organ involved but may include:
The health care provider may find decreased or no pulse, and decreased or no blood pressure in the arm or leg. There may be signs of tissue death or gangrene.
Tests to diagnose arterial embolism or reveal the source of emboli may include:
This disease may also affect the results of the following tests:
Arterial embolism requires prompt treatment at a hospital. The goals of treatment are to control symptoms and to improve the interrupted blood flow to the affected area of the body. The cause of the clot, if found, should be treated to prevent further problems.
Medicines include:
Some people need surgery. Procedures include:
How well a patient does depends on the location of the clot and how much the clot has blocked blood flow. Arterial embolism can be serious if not treated promptly.
The affected area can be permanently damaged. Amputation is needed in up to 1 in 4 cases.
Arterial emboli can come back even after successful treatment.
Go to the emergency room or call the local emergency number (such as 911) if you have symptoms of arterial embolism.
Prevention begins with finding the source of the blood clot. Your health care provider may prescribe blood thinners (such as warfarin or heparin) to prevent clots from forming. Antiplatelet drugs may also be needed.
You have a higher risk atherosclerosis and clots if you are:

On a bad day, and there are bad days sometimes, Peanut is tired. Since she was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in June, she's undergone two installments of chemotherapy treatment in hopes that the 8½-year-old is young enough, strong enough, to overcome her cancer.
"She has days where she's just fatigued," Jacobs tells PEOPLE.com, "and that twinkle's still there – it's just not so bright."
Peanut's battle isn't all that different than that of a human cancer patient, says staff veterinarian Dr. Jason Chatfield, who's collaborating with medical professionals from the University of Miami to help the orangutan.
The biggest change is how the treatment is administered. "She's more like a toddler in the mind," explains Chatfield, so doctors use general anesthesia to subdue Peanut for the 1½-to 2-hour process (compared to the estimated 4½ hours humans require because the drugs are run faster for her treatment).
At this point, he can't say exactly how effective the treatment has been, or if there's a guarantee she'll be cured. (A rep for Jungle Island wouldn't disclose exact expenditures, but says many of those helping Peanut have waived their fees or offered their services at cost.)
However, Chatfield says, "I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't think we could make a difference."
Courtesy Jungle Island
'Not Herself Right Now'In the wild, animals learn to hide their hurt. "You don't want to appear to be weak or vulnerable," Jacobs says. "It's just their nature to be able to tolerate a great amount of pain and mask it very well."
So it's no surprise Peanut's diagnosis was discovered by chance. She was undergoing abdominal surgery in May to fix what was assumed to be a simple obstruction; a microscopic exam of tissues revealed the larger, but unrelated, issue.
Doctors agreed: The cancer was aggressive. Untreated, it would spread and Peanut would survive another year, maybe.
But this might all be news for Peanut, who communicates with Jacobs through hand gestures. She touches her lips when she wants food; when her fingertips come together, she wants more. She puts her hand out and shakes it: hurry.
Those are her most common demands still. If anything, Jacobs says, her appetite for her favorite foods, like blueberries and jackfruit, has surprisingly increased. She hasn't lost any of her reddish-orange hair.
"It's a stretch to say that Peanut understands she has cancer," Jacobs says, "but Peanut understands she's not herself right now."
A Sister's BondHer twin sister, Pumpkin, understands, too. Sometimes, Peanut is too tired to play.
The week before Peanut underwent her second chemotherapy treatment on Sept. 5, Pumpkin went over to her twin and put her arm around her, as if to say with her gesture alone, "I'm really here for you," Jacobs says.
The zoo's other four orangutans look at her with concern, she says. "But we never talk about the treatment and cancer in front of [Peanut]," Jacobs says. The Jungle Island staff keeps it positive around her, and it's always up to Peanut if she wants to venture into the outdoor area, where there's a breeze and people, or stay indoors and rest.
Peanut is due to undergo another round of treatment some time in October. While cancer is not uncommon in animals, even apes, Chatfield says, Peanut's case is distinguished by her relatively young age. (Previous cases, including orangutans at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C., and another at the North Carolina Zoo, involved apes in their 30s or 40s, in the context of an estimated 50-year lifespan.)
For now, Jacobs is hopeful when she thinks about Peanut's recovery.
"Peanut is a little firecracker by nature," she says, and not all that much has changed. "She wants lots of attention – whether she feels well or not."

Salon owner: tanning debate should be more about regulations, less about limitations
March 10, 2013
CHARLESTON — Debate remains between tanning salons and cancer prevention advocates regarding the dangers of tanning beds and their links to skin cancer....
American Cancer Society > Small town salon owner.
Who's opinion/statement about the risks of skin cancer would you believe more? Tanning beds are not good for you...but neither are cigarettes or alcohol. They should be open to regulation/legislation like any other harmful element of society.
Lupie...applying makeup isn't changing the color of your skin, it's putting a color base over your skin. When/if it washes off, your skin remains the same color. Tanning beds actually change the color of your skin.

Always interpretation when it fits an agenda. Why spend extra money on a church dress when you could feed the poor or help heal the sick. That's what Jesus would do, not call them a burden to society. Again, welcome to American Jeezus.

Ah. I wish believers read their bible. This is new testament. 1 Timothy 2:9-10 - :Likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire". So yes, wearing nice clothes and jewelery is a sin but churches don't preach this in fear of losing members. Funny how people dress up for church when the bible is against it. America, you have it all wrong.

I know some pretty ignorant parents in the area that let pre-teens and young teenagers use these beds or a regular basis. You ever see someone that has been in a bed too much? Leathery skin, looks like an Oompa Loompa, and when they get older they look like Magda from the movie "There's Something About Mary". Show kids that pic and tell them that's what it looks like after years of abuse. All because they think looking like a baked chicken is attractive.

Bill graduated from Etna High School in 1942, and attended the University of Iowa, University of Pittsburgh, Bucknell University and Navy Post Graduate School. He became certified as both a fixed wing and helicopter pilot.
Bill enlisted in the Navy in 1942, in Pittsburgh, where he began his Naval career.

Judi Gates-Foster
June 17, 1947-Dec. 19, 2012
Age: 65
Residence: Greeley
Judi Gates-Foster, 65, of Greeley, passed away on Dec. 19, 2012, at Hospice of Northern Colorado. She bravely battled ovarian cancer for more than seven years, and despite her struggle, was rarely without a smile on her face or a kind word on her lips.
Judi was born on June 17, 1947, in St. Louis, to Leo Hammerschmidt and Edna Mae Logan.
Judi married Robin Foster on Nov. 23, 1996. They recently celebrated their 16th wedding anniversary while Judi was in hospice.
Judi had many interests and hobbies. She loved spending time with family and friends, taking long walks, traveling to tropical destinations, spending time in nature, attending Beth Moore Bible studies at First Presbyterian Church, reading books of all kinds, and taking continuing education classes. She considered herself a lifelong learner, and graduated Summa Cum Laude from UNC in 1993, at the age of 46. Her favorite activity, however, was attending Jazzercise classes. Even during her seven and a half years of chemotherapy, she could be found dancing and singing at a Jazzercise class. She loved encouraging others to work out as well!
Judi was a homemaker when her daughters were young, and later, opened her own Jazzercise business in Cheyenne. While in Greeley, she worked for Work Out West, Aims Community College, RSVP, Greeley Senior Center and the Weld County Health Department.

That's what we have, gentle readers, FREEDOM! I would like to say we have absolute freedom, but alas we don't.
I am writing this on the Fourth of July, Independence Day. I am also listening to a speech on the radio by Ronald Reagan in 1986 on July the Fourth. It makes me so sad to see where we are today in this wonderful land of America as opposed to where we were in 1986. So much has changed and not for the better in this old cowboy's opinion.
These past few years have brought forth folks that would prefer that you listen to what they have to say and for God's sake, don't express your own ideas or thoughts. Why? Well, because you are wrong, you just are in their minds. As Americans we are slowly but surely being scared to death by almost every government department and program. Some of which have been helpful in saving lives such as the seat belt law etc. Today, our government wants to "nanny" us from the cradle to the grave. Did you know that in some states folks on welfare can receive as much as, I ain't makin' this up ... $64,000 a year. In many of our states welfare folks can get 40,000 to 50,000 dollars a year for doing absolutely nothing! Why work? There is no incentive for them to make any effort at all to provide for themselves. None at all. I suppose I could rant and rave forever but you gentle readers know where I stand on most issues so I'll slow down a little.
I took a break and went into town for the pancake breakfast and to visit with friends and also to watch the parade. From all appearances one would think that all in attendance at the parade were patriots. Most all had their kids dressed up in red white and blue and waving little flags. I liked that a lot. Some however seemed to have that entitlement mentality. I discussed that with a feller over my pancakes that is running for county commissioner. At the parade I noticed some men cared not, didn't know better or just didn't give a darn enough to remove their hat when old glory passed by. That I didn't like. I wanted to just walk over and slap their hats right off their heads. This is America, we can participate or choose not to. I choose to and know that you do also. This America as we know it will never be the same as it was in 1941 unless we have a world war and all stick together. Me thinks that there will be too many that don't participate. It's a new time in a different America. It's up to you and I to make our thoughts known and to heck with political correctness!! God bless America again. We usually get what we deserve as we make our own beds and have to lay in them. Every one in America gets their say ... so say yours and when you do don't be shy. It is indeed time in this year of our Lord 2014 to stand up for freedom!
Stay tuned, check yer cinch on occasion, speak your mind and I'll c y'all, all y'all. ❖

With the calendar turning to July, it's officially time to kick off the whirlwind season that is the Major League Baseball trade deadline.
The non-waiver deadline is at 4 p.m. ET on July 31st, though transactions can still be made up until Aug. 31st for players who are placed on waivers.
This deadline figures to be very different from past years because there are so many teams that are bunched together and believe that they still have a chance at the postseason that we probably won't see a lot of action, at least not involving major players.
The most intriguing name on the market is New York Mets shortstop Jose Reyes, who is arguably the National League MVP right now. He is set to be a free agent at the end of the year, and with the Mets' financial problems, it will be very difficult for them to resign him.
It would be in the best interest of the franchise if they moved him because of all the uncertainty and a need to add impact talent to a thin farm system.
But with the Mets sitting at .500 as of this writing and "only" 6.5 games out of the wild card, they may not want to wave the white flag on the season by trading their best player. It is New York, and it's hard to sell those fans on a rebuilding project.
This is a seller's market, so the pickings will be slim. Other than a bunch of relievers being moved, it sure doesn't sound like anything big will happen.
But this is baseball, and you just never know what will happen if teams get desperate enough. Every year there always seems to be one major deal that comes out of nowhere to shock everyone.
We shall see if there is one of those kinds of deals in store for us this year.

ATTICA - Matt Short, 10, loves to play sports and was excited to play tackle-football this year, but on the second day of school he learned he has cancer.
Matt was playing baseball in June, said Chris Short, Matt's mother.
"He has always been a high-energy kid and in a matter of a few weeks, he was beginning to move like a slow-moving turtle," she said.
Matt and his mom went to several doctor appointments to figure out what was plaguing his body.
It wouldn't be until Aug. 21 at Akron Children's Hospital, after a lot of blood work and tests, that Chris and Matt would find out he was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
"We were bummed out," Chris said. "I thought, oh my God, are you serious!"
Matt will have to go through intensive chemo-therapy treatments weekly for 6-8 months and will be followed by treatments monthly for three years.
Matt also is to have bone marrow evaluations on a monthly basis. He has also developed hyperglycemia and hyperkalemia and has to take insulin.
Matt is dealing with a great amount of pain in his joints and back, Chris said.
"He has always been able to run around, and now it is taking a lot out of him and he gets worn out easily," she said.
A team of individuals have come together with a committee to sponsor a benefit for Matt. Dana Walliser, Janet Clark and Erin Robinson are the main contacts for this event.
Dana and Janet work together with Matt's aunt and uncle.
Nov. 3 at the Attica Fairgrounds, there is to be a spaghetti dinner along with an auction and a 50/50 raffle. Dinner is to be served at 5 p.m. and the auction is to take place at 7 p.m.
Items to be auctioned off are an Ohio State University cooler filled with goodies, a cedar picnic table with benches, a rustic bench, and two tickets to a Cleveland Cavaliers-Miami Heat game.
"The list is growing," Walliser said.
"There have been a few other fundraisers for Matt," Walliser said. "One was a huge success, Team Matt gear was sold all throughout Seneca East Schools."
These funds are being raised to help Chris and Matt with medical and transportation expenses.
"When we found out about the diagnosis, we were worried about the bills," Chris said.
Chris is a single mother of Matt and Colton, a second-grader at Seneca East. She makes her living working third shift at MTD in Willard.
Chris said she and Matt have been surprised by the support coming from a small community.
A Facebook page is dedicated to the Matt Short benefit and a bank account has been established in Matt's name; monetary donations can be made at any Sutton Bank branch.
To mail a donation, make checks out to Matthew Short Benefit to Sutton Bank, P.O. Box 505, Attica, OH 44807.

Starbucks makes prices AND calorie counts easy to find
So here I am, fresh off the vacation wagon and just after a swim, standing in line tra-la-la-la-la at my very fave Starbucks…OK, my fave outside of Estes Park. (My local fave, btw, is the one at Renner and Custer roads in Richardson).
As I wait, I'm gazing at the goodies behind the glass…the Blueberry Scone…the Iced Lemon Pound Cake…the Multi-Grain Bagel...and the one with the name that, for whatever reason, amuses my son and me no end: the Morning Bun. Isn't this website description yummy? Treat yourself to this flaky morning bun, and say "Good morning" like you mean it.
Anyway, not only were the names and prices of the products there, so were calorie counts! Seeing them right there without having to squint through a brochure of listings or to dig around on the website evoked mixed feelings for me.
The first, "How great is THIS?!"
The second, alas: "I wonder if there are three people in here who might like to split one of these with me?
All in all though, kudos to Starbucks for doing this. And I'll have my usual (albeit boring) tall bold.

The NBC News journalist, 57, was spotted by scouts from Berkeley Heights, New Jersey's Troop 368, but they didn't know it was her at first.
According to what scouter Rick Jurgens told Scouting magazine's blog on Friday, "We were hiking along, and we came to a trail intersection and a lady was sitting on the ground with her one leg out. We didn't think anything of it, but one of the guys asked if everything is okay. She said, 'No, not really. I think I broke my ankle.' She told us to keep going, but the guys refused."
And without further thought, "They splinted it up perfectly, just like in the pictures," Jergens, a professional firefighter and EMT, who oversaw the boys' work, said.
Following the splinting, the guys ran into the woods to find pieces for a makeshift stretcher. They found two strong sticks and tied them on a tarp.
"We work on these requirements, and here's an opportunity where it was a true test of all those first class, second class first-aid requirements," Jergens said. "They got to use it and use it for real. And they did an outstanding job."
And apparently Curry agreed, writing the troop in a letter that they went "above the call of duty."
"Discovering I was unable to walk, and needed to get down the mountain for medical care, you immediately set about to help," she also wrote, including a hand-signed letter to each helper thanking them for their "skill and professionalism."
It wasn't until after Curry was driven away with her family that Jurgens told the guys who she was. One scout apparently didn't believe it until he received her letter.
Curry confirmed the occurrence on her Twitter account by writing, "If you break a leg on a mountain, I hope Boy Scout Troop 368 finds you. Boy, am I glad they found me."
If you break a leg on on a mountain, I hope Boy Scout Troop 368 finds you. Boy am I glad they found me.

ALBANY – Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo will be in Buffalo Tuesday for a morning event at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center that will include discussions of at least several economic development initiatives.
The governor will hear from members of the Western New York Regional Economic Development Council, which has been charged with devising ideas on ways to bolster unique aspects of the area's economy and to provide advice on the governor's pledge to spend $1 billion over five years on local job creation projects.
The trip comes after what will be a non-stop round of meetings – starting at the White House at 12:30 today and ending with sessions on Capitol Hill with Republicans and Democrats – in his quest to get $42 billion in federal funding for help in rebuilding parts of downstate in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy.

Lana is just too good for words. It is normal that she'd get complimented by a million boys in a day because the boys are just telling the truth. She is the most caring, the sweetest, and an extremely loving person that people's dream is to be so close with. You would wish that you were to fall in love with her cause you would know that she would be the only one that'd treat you even better than perfect. I know for a fact that she'd understand everything and be there whenever you need her. Basically, she is that well-known, really attractive, girl that has the ability to make every boy nervous by just even being around them. It was a pleasure for me to meet Lana. If you don't know her yet, don't worry because she is easily noticed, being the prettiest girl in the crowd. I love you Lana so much, its funny because you have no idea how much <3

sweet, melodious, soft voice, sensuous, caring, sultry, loyal friend and protective mother, smoldering hottie under the angelic appearance, a lady in every way, intelligent, educated and a fine specimen of womanhood who is peace loving and will work to make things right in the world, a true lover of all people who also makes a good teacher, nurse or healer. She is a born leader but humble about it, and will always encourage you to do your best. She has high standards and loves her men to be intelligent, kind, responsible and healthy. Once you have her heart, she will do anything for you. Once you betray her, she will forgive you but never trust you again. She is a good hearted woman, but not a fool.

Their scuffle in game 3 (?) made me wonder this.
Both are big parts of a successful hockey team. Both have skill, grit, athleticism, and an edge.
Personally, I would want Marchand. He seems to have more refined skill than Shaw does. Although Shaw is an all-around good player offensively, Marchand seems to have a better shot, is a better passer, skates faster, and has more discipline. Shaw still seems a bit too immature.

What advice would you give someone starting this project? I would rate this as a advanced beginner crocheter. You also need some basic sewing skills! No sewing machine required! Complete crochet and sewing instructions are included for the blanket and I have added two edging options! The instructions do not include the name of any of the fabrics shown. You will need to choose and purchase your own fabric and coordinating yarn. Color photos included! I am always available for help!
I love this idea. Beautiful.
I really like this style - such a cozy look!! :)

Gymnasts Defeat No. 16 Ranked Central Michigan
Ball State's gymnastics team managed a 194.500 to 194.175 victory over the nation's 16th-ranked Central Michigan Chippewas in its Mid-American Conference opener.
With the victory, the Cardinals improved to 1-2 on the season and 1-0 in MAC play, while CMU suffered its first loss of the year and fell to 2-1 overall and 0-1 in league play.
The 194.500 team score ties for the 13th best mark in school history and is Ball State's best team score since the 2002 season.
"I am very proud of this team," head coach Nadalie Walsh says. "This team has great chemistry and I can trust them and they trust each other. We fought really hard through all four events and it came down to the final event in the meet. It is a tremendous accomplishment to beat a nationally ranked team, and it is good to start 1-0 in the conference."
The Cardinals won the meet behind the first place finishes of Denasiha Christian on the vault and Brittney Emmons' first place showing on the floor.
Ball State opened the meet against the 16th ranked team in the country with a victory in the first rotation. The Cardinals tallied a 48.850 on the vault, while the Chippewas managed a 47.825 on the bars to give Ball State the early advantage. Ball State's vault score is the fourth best mark in Ball State history.
On the vault, Christian led Ball State and placed first overall with a 9.85 mark. Freshman Brooke Evans and Emmons tied for third with a pair of 9.75's.
On the bars, Ball State tallied a 48.700 to maintain a 97.550 to 96.600 lead through two events. Angie Hosbach placed second with a 9.800, while Brooklyn Schumacher tied for third with a 9.775.
The Cardinals moved to the beam and registered a 48.075, while the Chippewas could only muster a 48.500 on the floor and Ball State led after three events 145.625 to 145.100.
On the beam, Leah Wilson finished third with a 9.825 to lead the Cardinals.
Ball State entered the final event with a slight advantage and was able to close the meet with a 48.875 on the floor, while CMU tallied a 49.075 on the beam.
Emmons won the vault with a 9.85, while Christian finished second with a 9.80. Schumacher and Hosbach tied for fourth with a pair of 9.75 scores.
Ball State will host Northern Illinois in its annual Alumni Day Meet Friday at 7 p.m. in Irving Gym.

Thesis Submission Guidelines
Graduate students are required to provide the Giovale Library with one UNBOUND copy and one electronic copy (PDF) on disc of their thesis. The print copy is professionally hardbound according to Library Binding Institute standards and placed in the Giovale Library Archives. The electronic copy is deposited and displayed in the Institutional Repository for users to access. This is to ensure their longevity and permanent status as part of the library collections.
Submission of Library Copies
One unbound copy and one electronic copy (PDF) on disc of the thesis must be submitted to the Circulation Desk in the Giovale Library. The library will cover the binding cost of the first copy; students must pay an $16.50 binding fee for each additional copy. All personal copies to be bound should be submitted at the same time along with the $16.50 fee per copy. Students who desire personal copies to be bound in some other manner should work with a local business that provides this service. All disc copies should be clearly labeled with the name of the author(s) and title of the thesis.
NOTE: Theses are collected and periodically cataloged and bound throughout the year, depending on the number received and the workflow in the cataloging department. Students should therefore be aware that it may be several months before their personal copies are available. If a student is in a rush to have personal copies bound, they can contact the library for suggestions on where to take them.
Students who submit theses to the Giovale Library must include the following:
Formatting Criteria for Theses
Pagination: Pagination must be consecutive throughout the thesis so that the cataloger and binder can make sure the pages are in the proper order.
Paper: Theses must be on high-quality, white paper, minimum 20-pound weight, with 25% rag content and 8 1/2 inches X 11 inches size. The paper must be of archival quality and acid free.
Margins: Margins must be sufficient to allow binding; that means a left margin of l.5 inches.
Print: Pages must be single sided. Print must be clearly readable.
Illustrations: Photographs, charts, and other materials mounted onto sheets for inclusion in the thesis must be securely fixed to pages.
Oversize Materials: Because of difficulties in binding, it is recommended that students avoid the use of oversize materials. Charts, graphs, etc. need to be reduced or redesigned to fit the page. If oversize material is used it must be folded to fit in pockets which will be inserted in the back of the theses.

Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Javier Baez (solo HR and a two-run single), Jeimer Candelario (two-run triple and an RBI single), and Danny Lockhart (two-run single and an RBI single) drove-in three runs a piece, Xavier Batista doubled twice, singled, and scored a run, and Micah Gibbs reached base four times on two singles and two walks and scored two runs, leading the Cubs to an 11-3 thumping of the Rockies in Cactus League Extended Spring Training action this morning at Fitch Park Field #3 in Mesa, AZ.
On the AAA Iowa Cubs Disabled List since April 19th with back issues, veteran LHRP Ryan Rowland-Smith made a rehab appearance in today's game, throwing an 11-pitch 1-2-3 inning with two strikeouts (both swinging) and an infield pop out. He looks like he's ready to return to the I-Cubs bullpen.
In EXST Cubs roster news, 2B Gioskar Amaya has returned from his three-day stint with the Iowa Cubs in Sacramento, where the 19-year old had a pinch-hit double yesterday. Amaya was in the EXST Cubs lineup today, playing 2B and going 0-3 with two walks and a run scored. (Amaya leads the EXST Cubs in walks with 12).

WEATHER: Sunny, hot, and VERY breezy with 100+ temperatures
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Hey Phil,
If you get the chance, would you show the updated stats for the EXT crew? I was wondering how our big 1b we're doing. Vogelbomb and Shoulders don't appear to be driving the ball out west there.
Also, a comment was made in one of the last posts that had a solid request:
What would be your prediction for the opening Boise squad?
If it's too much, no worries.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
on the topic of minor league stats (blah, blah, disclaimer, not the end-all, be-all, etc)
The Cubs system right now sucks ass.
It's basically A. Rizzo and J. Lake's first 9 games or on the offensive side and E. Jokisch and Francescon on the pitching side. I'll say A. Kirk, Rusin and Burke are doing nicely ERA-wise, but the peripherals seem lacking. N. Perez is 2nd in the FSL in OPS so give him some props, but he's 24 also in Hi-A.
I'm sure I'm missing a few, but slim pickings to get excited about.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Alright, should give Alcantara some props in Daytona. Good numbers for a middle infielder in that league.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Anyone named N. Perez probably sucks.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
But will have a long major league career.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Why do guys with good track records - Wilken, McPhail, come over to the Cubs and suck? That's part of my refusal to just assume Theo is our savior. I've seen this show too many times in my life as a Cubs fan. Like the movie says, show me the money.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
The poor depth in the farm systems makes me think that they will trade Garza, Dempster, etc .for prospects. That said, if Jackson and Rizzo play as expected, they should be able to be competitive in 2013 if the money coming off the books is spent wisely, leaving the rebuilding of the minors to the draft.
I will be interested to see which way they elect to go.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Jackson is struggling in the PCL right now, isn't he? Last I looked.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
hitting about .226
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Blake DeWitt outrighted to Class AAA Iowa.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
When the ball beats the runner, you're still out?
Cause for some reason Pierre is safe at first.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
And a shit throw by Soto and Pierre is on second.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Just bat the pitcher 2nd if you're going to sac bunt with Campana every time.
And Castro K's.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
2 games, 2 homers...soriano wakes up.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
If you would have told me back in March that by mid-may soriano would have twice as many hr as Pujlos I would have said "How did Pujlos die?"
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
it's weird watching him hit so crappy.
i guess it's the fault of the hitting coach that was with LAA before pujols even took a swing in the bigs.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Scary stuff in Tampa. W. Rhymes hit in the forearm, looked bad but he tried to stay in. Then passed out on the field. Carted off the field....awake, but he probably broke his arm.
Apparently B. Guyer was put on the DL.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
all the cool stuff happens when im away from my mlb EI...life = not fair.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
apparently just a bruise for Rhymes.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
g.soto's "operation .150" continues...0/3 (.161) after the end of 7.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
if s.camp keeps this up he'll never throw 100 innings out of the pen. shame.
3-2 phi/chc...going to the bottom 8.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
dat pen.

Joe Ricketts goes political
I don't want to start a political discussion here, and I won't respond to either side of the fence -- that's the beauty of this site - nobody does politics, but this is an interesting bit of news about Father Joe:
It's an interesting thing for a sports patriarch to do, no matter which side of the political fence you're on.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
What is VERY interesting is that the Ricketts family is asking Rahm and Quinn for millions of dollars to rehab Wrigley. And Papa Rickets is spending millions of dollars to get people to "hate" Obama.
Doesn't sound very strategic...
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Maybe the family is having a little kerfuffle. I just wanted to use that word.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
I doubt Papa Joe cares much about the bad PR this might bring the Cubs. It's unfortunate considering how I generally sway politically, but Laura Ricketts is a pretty big Obama supporter and has a lot more to do with the Cubs.
You can't choose your parents.
Shame Papa Joe wants to spend millions slinging mud rather than creating jobs though. I guess it's better to ask the people of Illinois to foot the bill.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Just read another article -- as the dust settles it sounds like it was just an ad pitch by the ad agency. Daddy seems to be distancing himself quite a bit from it. Big_l above had a good point. It would have been pretty idiotic from a strategic standpoint.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
He's not a sports patriarch, he's a business tycoon (Ameritrade founder). I think old Joe cares nothing about our Cubs, he basically bought the team as an investment and (an expensive) toy for his kids to play with.
Still not convinced the Ricketts are going to be a long-term positive for the Cubs.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
I also find it sickening that a guy is asking for a state handout. Yet is spending 10 plus million dollars to run negative adds against the president and his spending habits.
Joe Ricketts has zero sense of irony.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Yeah, 'irony' is one word for it.
Regardless of party persuasion (and I'm a radical independent), I just think it's unfortunate that people will now associate (indirectly, albeit) the Cubs with US politics of any sort, considering how dysfunctional our political system and culture is and has been, well, for some time now. (And it opens up opportunities for others to bag on the Cubs - look at Nancy Pelosi taking a shot at the Cubs today) If I wear a Cubs shirt, I hope I don't have to defend myself against Democrats or slow down smiling Republicans, shorting both from drawing any conclusions. Either way, this just sucks. It's Mr. Rickett's right to free speech to do this, but I still think it just sucks. And I think it would suck if he was sugar-daddying Obama or the Democrats as well.
Re: Joe Ricketts
Joe Ricketts is a registered independent, a fiscal conservative, and an outspoken critic of the Obama Administration, but he is neither the author nor the funder of the so-called "Ricketts Plan" to defeat Mr. Obama that The New York Times wrote about this morning. Not only was this plan merely a proposal – one of several submitted to the Ending Spending Action Fund by third-party vendors – but it reflects an approach to politics that Mr. Ricketts rejects and it was never a plan to be accepted but only a suggestion for a direction to take. Mr. Ricketts intends to work hard to help elect a President this fall who shares his commitment to economic responsibility, but his efforts are and will continue to be focused entirely on questions of fiscal policy, not attacks that seek to divide us socially or culturally.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Is that the whooooshing sound of blowback I hear?
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Toolsy. Ack!!
What is Wilken's role these days? Isn't he director of amateur scouting or something? I guess the point of my question is, will Theo make the final decision so we don't get some weird kid nobody has heard of but has "special" talents?
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
TheoCorp certainly will make the final decision on the first pick and probably the first few rounds. I think Wilken is just a very highly paid scout at this point. McLeod is probably the real guy in charge of the draft.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
That's what I was hoping you would say.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Blake Parker being called up. No word yet on the corresponding roster move.
Coleman, Maine or Bowden being DFA'd are options. Dolis has a bit of a sore back as well, but that was in Milwaukee.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Scott Maine optioned.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
Keith Law chat
Given the Cubs' distance from contention, are they likely to go for upside (e.g. Giolito or Correa) at 6?
Klaw: Begging the question. A team's distance from contention should have no effect on its drafting strategy - and that will be true with the Cubs, since it's a rational front office now.
Almora vs. Correa
True centerfielder, future plus glove. I'd be fine with either guy; I prefer Correa, but my preferences among the top 6-8 names are pretty fungible, at least to the point where if Houston took any of them I could make a good argument in their favor.
Bob from Tinley Park: Klaw, why doesn't this "rational front office" the Cubs have now trade guys like LaHair (while he's hot), Garza, and quit picking up vets like MacDougal and signing Wood? Oh wait, Ricketts needs to sell tix, forgot...
Klaw: Because it's not that easy. The market for players is neither fluid nor efficient. You see few trades in May in any year, and you need a buyer to trade a guy like LaHair.
Misrahi from Tennessee: Not even half way through the season, but are the Marlins looking like winners in the Zambrano trade? Volstad may be under team control, but he's a quad A player at the moment...
KLaw: You're ignoring years of control.
Re: Dillon Maples injury
Arm of course. As for timing, let me check my watch ... looks like I'm half past caring.
Re: Hak-Ju Lee
He's had some bad luck and some mechanical issues that the Rays feel like they've worked out.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
More Papa Joe reaction
A "livid" Mayor Rahm Emanuel is refusing to speak with the owners of the Chicago Cubs after their father was linked to a $10 million plan to launch an ad campaign attacking President Barack Obama by airing the racially charged sermons of Obama's former pastor.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
That a boy Mr. Mayor.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
starting to think this team is cursed.
Re: Cub Bats Rock Fitch Park
As well he should be. Where the hell is Ricketts going to move the Cubs? Peoria

Soler likely to return Sunday, Maddon says
Right now, I'd like to see the Mets first, Giants 2nd.
I believe that since most of the team from last years' NLCS is on the squad this year, they will really amp their game up even more to kick their ass in payback for 2015.
The Giants just do not have the depth in years past, and I think all things equal - and at Wrigley - they could handle them.
I do not want to see the Cards, period. Or their fans, media, or Joe Buck.
I don't want to play Braves in the first round. Any friggin team in the league can win 3 of 5..I hate the first round. Furthermore, I wanted to play the Marlins in 2003 and the Mets over Dodgers last year.
With that said in reverse order:
3. Cardinals: It will be devastating to lose in the first round, but even worse to their main rival. It is increased incentive for the Cardinals, especially after last year. Cards would have nothing to lose, Cubs have everything to lose.
2. Giants: Rotation in the playoffs scare me a bit, but what a lousy team.
1. Mets--because of the losses in the rotation
2. Giants--because they're not the team they were BUT they maybe have bullshit even-year magic?
3. Cardinals--because rivalry and not making the playoffs hurts them more than losing in the NLDS plus getting eliminated by them in the playoffs would make for horrible sports commentary next throughout next season.
Who's asking?
CLE/DET rained out last night already, possible rain-outs in New York (vs. Baltimore), Boston(vs. Toronto) and Philly(vs. Mets) this weekend too.
Not only games involving playoff spots that would need to be played, but any that involve home field advantage.
I got the first one! Second one I'm not even sure what even/odd betting is.
any opponent preference for NLDS?
Mets are down to 1 great pitcher instead of 4. Syndegaard may pitch Sunday which means if Mets win the WC game, he'd be set up for Game 1. There's a chance they clinch a spot by Sunday so he'd pitch the WC and then we'd probably get Colon for Game 1. They've certainly had the hottest bats over the last week and month out of the WC options.
A couple of Cub related puzzles.
Can't teach height and thinness
Hopefully Pirates don't call up A. Lincoln.
j.buchanan going friday...should be...baseball...or something like it.
Wow. I didn't know they could do that.
Nice for Willson, not so much for Addy.
Game is officially called...also officially a tie.
Stats count, no make-up date of course.
Yeah -- seeing the weather -- I hope KB and Rizz are inside, wrapped in blankets and drinking hot chocolate.

OSHKOSH, WI--Hundreds of people who attended an aviation celebration were the first to see two HondaJets make their first public debut. The event was the Experimental Aircraft Association's (EAA) AirVenture Oshkosh 2013 in Wisconsin.
Both aircrafts are Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved Hondajets. The pilots did a flight demonstration, that included a picturesque formation flyby, which hasn't been done before with these planes. The aerial salute served as a tribute to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh and the more than 500,000 attendees who gather annually to celebrate aviation.
HondaJet's Headquarters in in Greensboro, NC. In May the company gave WFMY News 2's Julie Luck an exclusive rare look inside.
"EAA AirVenture Oshkosh has special significance for me. This event is where I introduced the proof-of-concept HondaJet to the world for the very first time. It was truly the beginning of Honda's exciting venture into aviation," said Honda Aircraft President and CEO Michimasa Fujino. "I am very excited that EAA AirVenture Oshkosh has once again provided the setting for the first public appearance and demonstration flight of not one, but two FAA-conforming HondaJets."
According to a news release from the company, the fifth conforming HondaJet joined the test program in May and is being used for cabin system testing, interior testing, and options testing. It will also be used for FAA function and reliability (F&R) testing. It is the first HondaJet to be equipped with a production interior and is anchoring the final leg of the flight test program.

A positive term used for a sweet, but ,quick to throw punches, southern girl. Peach being the sweeter side of the girl and Pop being the more violent side. Peach refers to the term "Georgia Peach" and is related to the term "Southern Bell". Pop refers to the firecracker (Texas Pop Rocket) known for having a short fuse.
Elizabeth sure was being a Peach today, but watch out cuz she might wanna be a Pop too! She's definitely a Peach Pop!

has been the leading spacefaring nations on the planet since the
early days of space travel. The U.S. put the first man on the moon
and continued to lead the world in exploration and space travel.
President Obama unveiled a new budget for NASA in February that dealt
many of its space flight programs a serious blow including ambitious
plans for putting
American's back on the moon.Obama has already cut funding
for the Constellation program along with the funding that would allow
for the completion of the Orion crew capsule that would take
astronauts to the ISS after the space shuttle fleet is retired. Many
in Washington and at NASA have been calling for Obama to clarify his
plans for NASA.Obama is going to talk
at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida about his plans for
NASA and human spaceflight. The New
York Times quotes
an unnamed Obama administration official saying, "[The president
will describe a plan] that unlocks our ambitions and expands our
frontiers in space, ultimately meaning the challenge of sending
humans to Mars."Obama is reportedly going to propose a
simpler version of the Orion capsule to be used as a lifeboat for the
ISS. Obama is also expected to announce a commitment to choosing a
design for a heavy-lift rocket by 2015. The official added, "This
means major work on the heavy-lift rocket at least two years earlier
than Constellation."One of the big concerns is that the
budget cuts will mean thousands of people working in the space
industry in Florida and other states are facing layoffs. The Wall
Street Journal reports
that 7,000 workers at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida are
facing layoff with the new budget. Concessions made to allow
for a simpler version of Orion will allow 2,000 of those jobs to be
saved.NASA deputy administrator Lori Garver said, "He's
[Obama is] putting a lot of political capital into it. Human
spaceflight is a huge priority of this president."
quote: Obama's proposal isn't a plan at all - it's just a statement of principal: "private industry should lead human space exploration."
quote: Space exploration is a minuscule market in comparison to banking, automotive and health care. 'Take over the big stuff first. Worry about the peons later....' That kind of attitude.
quote: And Obama has *NOT* cut funding to NASA, he actually added a couple of Billion to their budget - he gutted Human Spaceflight in favor of robotic exploration.
quote: I'm not a big fan of Obama.
quote: But to be fair he inherited a huge budget deficit,
quote: Remember, GWB inherited huge budget surpluses from Clinton.
quote: I'm not weighing into the Democratic / Republican debate. I am stating the GWB was an ignorant, short-sighted leader who thought that 'character' is a substitute for reason.
quote: I'm not a big fan of Obama.
quote: I have very intelligent fiscal and social conservative friends who think very lowly of GWB.
quote: There are good guys and bad guys and the people who disagree with me are simply ignorant.
quote: I mean honestly, what kind of moron is actually FOR more taxes ???
