BALTIMORE -- CC Sabathia won't have the Baltimore Orioles to kick around again until Labor Day weekend.
The same pretty much goes for his Yankees teammates, who get one more crack at their favorite punching bags Thursday night and then have to wait until Sept. 6 for a chance to smack them around again.
Right now, it's tough to tell who is going to miss the Orioles more. In the jungle of the AL East -- a division in which four excellent teams are battling for, at the most, two playoff spots -- the Orioles are the gift that keeps on giving, a shady oasis in the middle of a searing desert.
Sabathia -- who with the exception of one terrific outing in April has been neither very good nor very bad this year -- has gotten fat off the Orioles, having beaten them for four of the six wins he has so far this season. His career mark against them is an almost sadistic 13-1.
And the Yankees have done even better. By winning their 10th straight game over Baltimore, they now have racked up more than 25 percent of their total wins for the season against the same inept ballclub. And Wednesday's 4-2 victory was a lot more indicative of the talent gap between the two teams than even Tuesday's 12-7 Yankees win was.
This was the classic "good teams win this one, bad teams lose it," sort of game, a close, reasonably well-pitched contest decided ultimately by plays in the field. Two great ones by the Yankees and three miserable ones by the Orioles.
There were two timely hits, Robinson Cano's RBI single that tied the game in the sixth and Francisco Cervelli's RBI single that provided an insurance run in the eighth.
There was a sacrifice fly by Curtis Granderson that put them on the board in the fourth and a double-play grounder by Jorge Posada that the Baltimore infield botched, but it didn't matter because Alex Rodriguez, on third with none out in the sixth, was going to score the go-ahead run anyway.
And that was about it, but it was more than enough for the Yankees and way too much for the Orioles.
"They're a major league ballclub and they play hard," Joe Girardi said, mouthing the typical managerial yada-yada-yada. "The important thing is you play solid baseball and win series. That's what we try to do."
The truth is, the Orioles stink. On Tuesday night, they were able to score seven runs but couldn't limit the Yankees to six. On Wednesday, they held the Yankees to four -- two of them unearned, thanks to three errors -- but couldn't manage to score five.
They are always just good enough to lose.
And so far, Sabathia has always been good enough to win. That is, on the nights he faces the Orioles.
He started the season well, and in his second outing took a no-hitter against the mighty Tampa Bay Rays into the eighth inning. He followed that up with a good start against the Texas Rangers on April 16.
But since then, the only team he has been able to beat are the Birds.
Girardi tried his best to paint that as an accomplishment -- you know, "it's tough to beat a major-league team back-to-back," and all that -- and in fact, Sabathia has now beaten the Birds twice in the space of six days.
This, Girardi told us, was a testament to Sabathia's powers of adjustment. But to Yankees fans, the real adjustment Sabathia must make is against the rest of the league.
"Hey, what is it -- June the what, the sixth?" Sabathia said. "You can't expect me to go out and put together 10 starts like I had the last two or three years or whatever. But I can go out and try to keep the team in the game and help us win."
Modest goals for a top-of-the-rotation pitcher who so far has not pitched nearly as well as Phil Hughes, a virtual rookie as a starting pitcher, or ancient Andy Pettitte, who at 7-1 is off to the best start of his career and doesn't seem to need to make adjustments against anyone. Even Javier Vazquez, practically booed out of the Bronx in April, has pitched better than Sabathia over the past month.
Like CC's problem with the date -- Wednesday was, of course, June 9 -- Girardi says his erstwhile ace's pitches "have just been a little bit off."
"I looked up at one point and he had 15 balls and 15 strikes, and I don't think I've ever seen that from CC before," Girardi said. "But once he got through that fourth inning his stuff seemed to get better. He was locating his fastball more effectively and his breaking ball got sharper."
Sabathia's best moment, however, came in the seventh, helped immensely by Cano's brilliant play to keep Nick Markakis' grounder from penetrating the infield, saving the tying run from scoring. After walking Ty Wigginton, Sabathia helped himself by fanning Luke Scott, a three-time victim, on a gorgeous slider that had Scott lunging at air.
"The breaking ball was definitely a big pitch for me tonight," said Sabathia (6-3, 4.01 ERA).
The Yankees got their second key defensive play in the eighth when Kevin Russo -- an infielder by trade pressed into outfield duty by injuries (this time to Brett Gardner) -- made a spectacular diving catch to rob Adam Jones of a sure double leading off the eighth against Joba Chamberlain.
"That play changed the game for us," said Girardi, since the next batter, Matt Wieters, doubled into the right-center gap. But typically, the Orioles couldn't capitalize; pinch hitters Corey Patterson and Scott Moore struck out and grounded out to end the inning.
Things get no better for the Orioles on Thursday, when they send out RHP Jake Arrieta to make his first major league start against A.J. Burnett (6-3, 3.72 ERA).
"That's the sign of a good team, when you're able to fight through it and find a way to win when you don't have your 'A' stuff," Girardi said, referring to wins by a subpar Hughes on Tuesday and Sabathia on Wednesday.
It's also the sign of a bad team that the Orioles weren't able to find a way on either of those days. Too bad that after Thursday night, they disappear from the schedule until the kids go back to school.
CC Sabathia, for one, is sure going to miss them.
GAME NOTES: Gardner, whose sore left thumb was X-rayed before the game, came in as a pinch-runner for Posada in the eighth, stole second and scored on Cervelli's single. Girardi did not send Gardner out to the field, using him as the DH instead, and sent Marcus Thames up to bat for him in the ninth. "I was told there would be some issue with his defense, not so much catching and running as throwing, so I got him out of there," Girardi said. Even though Gardner's X-rays came back negative, he said he would probably undergo an MRI when the team returns to New York on Friday. After slogging through a mini-slump (0-for-12) following the end of his 17-game hitting streak, Cano has now gotten nine hits in his past 12 at-bats. His average is a major league-leading .376. Mark Teixeira followed his three-hit night Tuesday with two more Wednesday, although he had to wait until after the game for one of them; the scoring on his sixth-inning grounder, booted by Julio Lugo, was changed from an error to a hit. He also doubled in the seventh.

One of the most picturesque spots in Evangeline Parish is Chicot State Park, home to the state's largest man-made lake. But you might be surprised to learn that hidden hundreds of feet below the bottom of the lake is a massive underground aquifer that provides a steady, clean source of water for irrigation, consumer and industrial use to fifteen parishes in Southwest Louisiana, including all of Acadiana.
We spoke with Lafayette Utilities System Director Terry Huval about the importance of the Chicot Aquifer.
"The Chicot Aquifer is an underground geographic location that has kind of a lake of water that stretches all the way from morgan city to east Texas to Alexandria, all the way to the Gulf of Mexico, so it's a very, very large plentiful water source. It's also a very clean water source, we have done some age testing in the past and found that some of the water out of that Chicot Aquifer is 1500 years old."
But here's the question-how does the water travel from a massive underground lake to this point, flowing out of faucets in homes and businesses around Acadiana?
"We have deep water wells that go down as much as six or seven hundred feet that bring the water up and pump it into the water here, at which time we do the work necessary to bring it into our water transmission and distribution system, then the water leaves here and goes down the pipelines and ultimately into businesses and neighborhoods around Lafayette." said Huval.
Before that happens, though, water from the aquifer undergoes a rigorous, multi-step purification process, that is constantly monitored, 24-7, by LUS staff members, to make sure every drop of water that flows from the system is clean and pure.
Huval says unlike other cities, such as Baton Rouge and New Orleans, which rely on the Mississippi River for their water supply, communities served by the Chicot Aquifer can count on a steady water resource for lifetimes to come.

Sir – I am sure Natasha Saveall (Gazette Letters, November 14) will not be surprised to learn that not everybody shares her point of view.
The district council certainly did not listen to the people of Brize Norton.
Does she realise that the Carterton East option is in fact in Brize Norton village ?
By all means, let Carterton expand, so long as it does so within its own boundaries.
Properties were demolished in Upavon Way and presumably planning would not have been necessary for them to be replaced.
I cannot imagine Carterton will benefit from the inhabitants of Carterton East, any more than it has from Shilton Park.
Brize Norton has no desire to be swallowed up by Carterton. Unfortunately, it gets closer by the day.
So much for Monahan Way being the acknowledged boundary between Carterton and Brize Norton.
We can look forward to even more traffic through our village; all the extra people will need to work somewhere and it certainly won't be in Carterton. Existing industrial units have been empty for several years.
We shall no doubt see more instances of flooding, despite mention of "appropriate (whatever that may mean) flood risk mitigation measures".
Houses in Carterton Road were never flooded before Shilton Park was built.

The Eye of the World
Chapter 50, "Meetings at the Eye"
"It might be called the essence of saidin." The Aes Sedai's words echoed round the dome. "The essence of the male half of the True Source, the pure essence of the Power wielded by men before the Time of Madness. The Power to mend the seal on the Dark One's prison, or to break it open completely."
The Eye of the World
Chapter 43, "Decisions and Apparitions"
"There is enough power in the Eye of the World to undo his prison. If the Dark One has found some way to bend the Eye of the World to his use..."
The Eye of the World
Chapter 46, "Fal Dara"
"You cannot be saying he [the Dark One] is loose!" Rocklike Agelmar sounded shaken, and Moiraine quickly shook her head.
"Not yet. If we win at the Eye of the World, perhaps not ever again."
Paul Ward: Possible question: Is the Dark One pure True Power? Why does the Creator ignore Randland except to talk to Rand at the end of The Eye of the World?
Robert Jordan: No, the Dark One is not pure True Power. Who says the Creator takes little interest in the activities of mankind? And I will neither confirm nor deny that the Creator spoke to Rand.
The Great Hunt
Chapter 47, "The Grave is No Bar to My Call"
"Something is wrong here. Something holds me." Suddenly he turned his sharp-eyed gaze on Rand. "You are here. Have you the banner?" A murmur ran through those behind him.
"Yes." Rand tore open the straps of his saddlebags and pulled out the Dragon's banner. It filled his hands and hung almost to his stallion's knees. The murmur among the heroes rose.
"The Pattern weaves itself around our necks like halters," Artur Hawkwing said. "You are here. The banner is here. The weave of this moment is set. We have come to the Horn, but we must follow the banner. And the Dragon."
LordJuss: Why was Aginor so interested in the Eye of the World? He could channel clean saidin anyway so it shouldn't have been an issue?
Robert Jordan: He was able to channel clean saidin, true, but only through the "filter" which had been provided by the Dark One just a short time previously, which meant the Dark One would be aware of him channeling wherever he was. Remember, Aginor was the creator of the Trollocs; he is quite able to reason things out clearly, at least in a scientific sense. Also, he wasn't certain whether or not the Dark One also would know what he was doing when he channeled, too. For someone as secretive, competitive, and generally untrustworthy as one of the Forsaken, the Eye of the World amounted to a valuable asset if it could be secured. To put it simply, Aginor saw a means of channeling without the Dark One looking over his shoulder, and maybe a way to increase his own power at the expense of those who didn't have that advantage. Balthamel might well have been for the long drop, administered by Aginor, if things hadn't worked out differently.
"I think it might be the Eye that gave him [Rand] access to past life memories. He didn't remember any past lives in book 1, but in book 2 when Mat blew the Horn, Rand said not only could he recognize the Heroes by their names and variations, but he had to fend off remembering countless of his own past lives. Those memories were there very early."
Jeff Edde: Interesting. In The Eye of the World, Rand uses Light and Power. Is it significant that he uses Light and Power again in Towers of Midnight?
Brandon Sanderson: Yes.
Jeff Edde: Can Rand channel Light and Power as a result of touching the Eye of the World, or does he have access to it because he is who he is?
Brandon Sanderson: It was the power in the Eye, so far as I know.
Towers of Midnight
Chapter 32, "A Storm of Light"
The Asha'man Naeff—standing beside Bashere—gasped. "I've never seen so many weaves at once," he whispered. "I can't track them all. He's a storm. A storm of Light and streams of Power!"
Towers of Midnight
Chapter 15, "Use a Pebble"
The darkness was enormous, covering the entirety of his mind. Thousands upon thousands of the tiny black thorns pricked into his brain, but beneath them was a brilliant white lacing of something. A white radiance, like liquid Power. Light given form and life. She gasped. It coated each of the dark tines, driving into his mind alongside them. What did it mean?
+10, totally cuckoo
That said, Rand was batshit crazy in the later books.

By PAUL L. MONTGOMERY
Published: January 16, 1982
Jack Henry Abbott, weeping on the witness stand, admitted yesterday that he had stabbed a waiter to death with a kitchen knife last summer, but he pleaded that it was a ''tragic misunderstanding'' born of his lifetime of exposure to prison violence.
Mr. Abbott, the author of ''In the Belly of the Beast,'' which is about his 24 years in reform school and prison, testified through the day at his murder trial in State Supreme Court in Manhattan. Amid constant reminders to speak louder, the 37-year-old defendant told of his life in the six weeks between his release from jail and the killing on July 18, and of his two views of the stabbing.
At the time, he testified, he thought the waiter, Richard Adan, was threatening to assault him. Now, he said, he realizes Mr. Adan was only offering help.
In the midst of the testimony in the hushed courtroom, Mr. Adan's father-in-law, Henry Howard, arose from his spectator's seat and screamed, ''Abbott, you scum! You useless scum!'', until he was led away.
''It's just like in the book, Abbott, just like in the book,'' Mr. Howard shouted. In his memoir, Mr. Abbott describes a stabbing that seemed to parallel eyewitness testimony about last summer's killing in the East Village. Mr. Abbott himself was convicted when he was 21 of killing one inmate and wounding another in prison stabbings.
After the outburst and the dismissal of the jury until Monday, Mr. Abbott's attorney, Ivan S. Fisher, moved for a mistrial. Acting Justice Irving Lang reserved decision on the request and barred Mr. Adan's family from further attendance at the trial.
The defendant is accused of stabbing Mr. Adan after an argument outside the Binibon restaurant at Second Avenue and Fifth Street about 5 A.M. last July 18. The restaurant is owned by Mr. Howard. Mr. Adan, a 22-year-old actor and aspiring playwright, had been working there two years as a waiter.
Mr. Abbott had been writing letters to Norman Mailer from Federal prison since 1977 and, in 1980, excerpts from his writings were first published. Mr. Mailer, who has been attending the trial the last two days, and other literary figures recommended that he be paroled because of his outstanding talent as a writer. Mr. Abbott was released from jail last June 5 and was living at a halfway house near the Binibon at the time of the stabbing.
In his testimony, Mr. Abbott talked of his difficulty in adjusting to the rough street life of the East Village - the panhandlers, the vagrants, homeless men sleeping on the street and in doorways. In notes made at the time, he said, he described them as ''upright but dead.'' Instruction in Manners
One acquaintance he made, Veronique de St. Andre, he said, was teaching him manners - about wine and ordering meals in restaurants. She also played Mozart for him, he said, and for the first time saw real paintings in museums instead of pictures in books.
On the evening of July 17, he said, he ran into Miss St. Andre and another woman friend in a bar across from the halfway house. His friends were telling him about the differences in cognacs, he said. ''We put away quite a few of them, but I don't get drunk so I felt fine,'' he testified.
They decided to go to an after-hours discotheque, he said, but first he went back to his room at the halfway house to shower and change. As he left, he said, he picked up a paring knife he kept in his room for cutting mangos and thrust it in the belt of his jeans. He said he knew the streets to be dangerous and had witnessed three stabbings in his six weeks there. ''I had mon ey taken away from me on the street, you name it,'' Mr. Abbott said .
After leaving the discotheque, they went to the Binibon for breakfast, he said. What followed, he testified, had two versions - what he believed at the time and what he has lately come to accept based on reflection and evidence so far at the trial. ''There are two ways that it happened,'' he said. Adan 'Running His Mouth'
In the first version, he said, he thought Mr. Adan was acting hostilely in the restaurant, ''running his mouth at me'' and pushing him. He said he got up and approached Mr. Adan and said, ''If I've done something to bother you, let me know so I can correct it.'' He said he was embarrassed in front of his friends. ''If I was alone I would have walked out of it a long time ago,'' he said.
After further conversation that he regarded as threatening, Mr. Abbott said, Mr. Adan asked, ''Do you want to go outside?'' He said he went outside and Mr. Adan motioned him around the corner. He said the waiter stood on the corner looking up and down while waving him back into the darkness. Mr. Abbott said he thought Mr. Adan was making sure there were no witnesses before assaulting him, and that he took out his knife.
''I was going to run,'' Mr. Abbott said, ''but then I thought, 'You don't do that,' '' Mr. Abbott said. Mr. Adan came up to him, he said. ''I was screaming at him, 'Don't come any closer,'' Mr. Abbott said. He said that Mr. Adan pulled out ''a weapon,'' that he tried to block it and that there was a struggle. ''All the sudden the knife was in his chest and it was dead still,'' Mr. Abbott said. Mr. Abbott said he had lived in fear of being killed in prison by both inmates and guards, and thought the incident in the restaurant might be such an attack. 'I Had to Kill Him'
He said he returned to the restaurant and told the women to leave. He said that they had asked why and that he replied, ''I had to kill him.''
Mr. Abbott fled and was recaptured two months later in Louisiana. He said his fears about being killed and Mr. Adan's role were magnified by newspaper reports about his flight. However, he said, he now realizes that Mr. Adan was a fellow artist and that what he took for threats were merely the gestures of an actor.
Previous testimony had shown that the Binibon had no bathroom for patrons and that men who asked were directed around the corner. Mr. Abbott said he now realizes that Mr. Adan probably thought he wanted a bathroom and was showing him where to go, watching the street to make sure he was not surprised.
''It was one of the most tragic misunderstandings I can imagine,'' he said, his head in his hands and his shoulders shaking. Mr. Abbott's account differed at a number of points from previous testimony by witnesses. One witness said Mr. Abbott lunged at Mr. Adan from behind when the waiter was retreating and reached around to stab him. No weapon was found after the stabbing, and several witnesses said they had never seen Mr. Adan carry one.
Mr. Abbott is to be cross-examined by James H. Fogel, an assistant district attorney, on Monday about his testimony and his view of necessary violence as shown in his writings.

text: The "ultimate" penalty is unlikely to get handed down due to "political pressures," but .......if it does, Jerry may need to tell fans that the only yellow fluid that will be found during games will be lemonade and urine. State investigating arrest of Cowboy stadium general manager ARLINGTON The Dallas Cowboys could be fined and the liquor-sales permit for the new stadium could be suspended if state investigators determine that the stadiums general manager drank too much on opening night, officials said Friday. The general manager, Jack Hill, 53, was arrested early Sunday on suspicion of driving while intoxicated. His vehicle was involved in a minor collision on Randol Mill Road right outside the new Cowboys Stadium, hours after its inaugural event. No one was injured. Hill failed a field sobriety test and was arrested, police said. Now the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission is investigating whether Hill consumed too much alcohol at the stadium. "If an employee is intoxicated on a licensed premises, we can cancel or suspend the permit for that violation," said Capt. Charlie Cloud of the commissions Dallas office. The agency is also working to determine whether Hill is employed by the permit holder or by a related company, which may have a bearing on the penalty, he said. The standard penalty for a first-time offense of an employee being intoxicated on a licensed premises is a $300 fine and suspension of the license for 17 to 25 days, according to the Alcoholic Beverage Code. Repeat offenses can lead to longer suspensions or cancellation of the permit. The investigation, which is being handled by the agencys Fort Worth office, could wrap up quickly or drag out, depending on the cooperation of witnesses, Cloud said. Cowboys spokesman Brett Daniels issued this statement Friday: "We are aware and are cooperating with their review." Hill, who had been construction manager for the $1.15 billion stadium, was released from jail Sunday on $1,000 bail.

I'll offer up my avatar to Athlai forever if Wellington wins the Champions League.
If the Windies selectors stopped playing politics, they would admit that the best West Indies 20/20 side will have a majority of Trinidadians on it. If they ever resolve the disciplinary issues with Gayle and Benn, these would be my first and second XIs:
First XI
1) Chris Gayle
2) Adrian Barath
3) Lendl Simmons
4) Darren Bravo
5) Dwayne Bravo
6) Kieron Pollard
7) Denesh Ramdin
8) Andre Russell
9) Ravi Rampaul
10) Dev Bishoo
11) Samuel Badree (why is he ignored by WI selectors?)
Second XI
1) Danza Hyatt
2) Johnson Charles
3) Andre Fletcher
4) Marlon Samuels
5) Dwayne Smith
6) Chris Barnwell
7) Darren Sammy
8) Sherwin Ganga
9) Kemar Roach/Fidel Edwards
10) Suleimann Benn
11) Sunil Narine
In effect, the first Xi are currently in India, and most of the players in England now are second XI 20/20 players...
yo Aus fags, let's play pick the NSW team:
The Squad:
Simon Katich (c)
Stuart Clark
Patrick Cummins
Nathan Hauritz
Josh Hazlewood
Moises Henriques
Phillip Hughes
Nic Maddinson
Stephen O'Keefe
Ben Rohrer
Daniel Smith
Steven Smith
Mitchell Starc
David Warner
Shane Watson
Watson (could switch Hughes around. small thing)
Katich (C...and now it gets hard)
Rohrer (sorry Maddinson. me luv u long time)
D. Smith +
S. Smith (do we just play one of Smith/O'Keefe?)
Hauritz (first spinner picked you'd think. under-rated t20 record)
Squeeze out Starc for O'Keefe if you pick 3 spinners. With Watson there Moises isn't much use unless we don't want to play both of Smith and SOK.. Haze/Starc 50/50. Spinners...who knows what we'll do. Give Hughes the gloves? (wildcard bitches)

Will say this once and then nothing else. Defamation laws quite clear in Aus.be careful.
Have to play SSmith, surely. Not far from first name on the teamsheet as far as T20 is concerned.
do you think people will be allowed to make violins?
who's going to make the violins?
forever 63*
depends on whether Katich will actually bowl him tbh. he did last time 'round
Here's the 2009 final btw: Final: New South Wales v Trinidad & Tobago at Hyderabad (Deccan), Oct 23, 2009 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo
so Henriques for Watson, Starc and Cummins for Lee and Dougeh (both at their own teams)
Leics making a fine effort in this chase. If they win easily, then they can still go through if Kolkata v Somerset is a sufficient hammering. And apparently if they get there in 13.2 overs (need 100 in 7.5 overs) they're definitely through.
What if all the switches get stuck on 'destroy'?
Abdul Razzaq deserved better than this.
Looks like a narrow win now. Both sides going out.
Seems like a Choke is on here.

There are several set top boxes available that allow you to stream Internet and local media over your home network to your HDTV. Names like Roku, Apple TV and Boxee are common. Not to be out done, Sony puts its hat in the ring with the SMP-N200.
The device is larger than the latest model of Apple TV or Roku. It has both Ethernet and built in WiFi connectivity. It includes Composite (for older TVs), Component and HDMI connectivity to your TV. It can stream video content in full 1080p resolution. It's also 3D capable with 3D content offered through the Sony 3D Video Unlimited service.
The Sony SMP-N200 Streaming Player includes the popular streaming video channels you would expect like Crackle, YouTube, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video and several more. However, there aren't as many channels as a Roku 2.
There's also streaming music channels like Pandora, Slacker Radio, NPR and others.
Also included is the Sony Entertainment Network. It lets you access Music and Videos Unlimited. This is a paid service offered by Sony – but there's limited content you can access for free after setting up an account. Sony offers a 30 day free trial for Music Unlimited and after that it's $9.99 / month for the Premium service.
Videos Unlimited is a pay-as-you-go service. You can Rent or Buy movies and costs vary. The selection of movies isn't the greatest, and of you have Netflix and / or Amazon Prime account, having additional charges defeats the purpose of being a cord cutter.
After plugging in the box, there is a quick setup process to work through to adjust picture quality and connect to your home network. After connecting, it found my Windows Home Server 2011 system out of the box. This let me access my movies, music and photos with ease. The SMP-N200 is DLNA ready, so no plugins or special set up is required.
It includes a USB port on the side of the box so you can plug an external drive and play media from it. New Roku boxes also offer this feature.
Here's an example of playing an AVI file from a USB drive. Hitting the Options button on the remote lets you control playback, audio and video settings.
It supports several video and audio file types which include AAC, ACV-HD, DivX, DivX HD, JPEG, MKV, MP3, WMA, MPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and WMV.
An interesting feature that Sony includes on the SMP-N200 is a Web Browser. I haven't seen something like this since back in the days of WebTV or the Sega Dreamcast. It doesn't work that great, and is unable to display a lot of pages correctly. This isn't a major selling point, but it's there if you need it.
While the physical remote feels comfortable and is intuitive, check out Media Remote for Android or Apple iOS. It lets you control the box over your home network from your smartphone or tablet.
The Sony Streaming Player SMP-N200 sells for between $69.99-79.99 depending on where you shop. It works smoothly, has a quality display. It's DLNA capable and I was impressed with the easy home network integration out of the box. It's also able to playback several different media file types – more than the Roku. Another nice thing is it can breathe new life into your old television, and turn it into a Smart TV.
The biggest problem is with the limited and sometimes confusing user interface and limited amount of streaming channels.
If you want a larger collection of free streaming content, a Roku is a better choice and cheaper depending on the model you get. If you're an Apple user familiar with OS X and iOS, then you'll want to get an Apple TV. If you're more interested in HD picture quality and 3D content…the Sony SMP-N200 is a nice box to have.

What were the hottest trends at Sunday's Golden Globes?
Us Weekly fashion director Sasha Charnin Morrison, beauty director Gwen Flamberg, and Usmagazine.com style and beauty director Andrea Lavinthal discuss the night's most popular colors, accessories, hairstyles, and more.
Favorite looks included Angelina Jolie, who dazzled in a sparkly emerald green Versace, and Emma Stone, who rocked another must-have color: pink.
But not every star's ensemble was well-received by our expert panel.
"It felt there was a fight going on between the hair and the necklace," Morrison says of Natalie Portman.
Also getting called out (and not in a good way): Jennifer Love Hewitt's orange-y spray tan.

Clarksville police have a suspect in custody after a mother of three was stabbed to death inside her own apartment.
The quiet and seemingly peaceful Miller Town Apartments on Jack Miller Boulevard was met with unbelievable tragedy early Wednesday as neighbors say they were awakened just after 2:30 a.m. by the screams of two little boys pleading for someone to save their mother.
"They said, 'Can you call the police? The guy has a knife, and he is trying to hurt my mom! He said he is going to stab her,'" said neighbor Kenneth Chambers, who took the boys in after the stabbing.
The boys' mother was identified as 37-year-old Nancy Lowry.
Clarksville police said Lowry was stabbed multiple times in her apartment by 21-year-old Joshua Black. The boys told a neighbor he's a family acquaintance.
"The little boy told me he was just a friend who would come over there all the time trying to talk to his mother," Chambers said.
The mother of three was taken to Blanchfield Army Community Hospital where she died.
Black is currently jailed in Montgomery County without bond on a charge of criminal homicide.
The investigation is continuing, and anyone with information is asked to call Detective Eric Ewing at 931-648-0656 Ext. 5447.

From the front door, you enter the living space, with the kitchen to your left and lounge straight ahead, there are patio doors with electric shutters leading directly on to the private patio.
The kitchen is fully fitted and equipped with everything you would expect, fridge, microwave & washing machine. The hob is halogen, very efficient and easy to keep clean during your stay. There is plenty of preparation and storage space in the kitchen and the inventory includes good quality saucepans (with lids!), serving dishes, large dinner plates and plenty more.
The sunlight streams in to the lounge area through the patio doors but you have the option of pulling the curtains across and switching on the fan if you prefer a cooler room.

Large swimming pool very close too.
Overall La Manga Club has great facilities particularly so for the sporty types but offers a good time for less sporting (like me!)
The whole club is very clean and safe with 24 hour security and barriered entrances.

We stayed for a week in November. The facilities both in the apartment & on the resort are excellent. I was very impressed with the Health Spa in the resort where many celebrities come for treatments. I am in a wheelchair mostly & the apartment was ideally suited for my needs, with a huge bathroom and a great shower. there is a lovely little patio garden attached to the apartment which was lovely to sit outside for breakfast. I was pleased to see all the english channels on the TV. I would definately return to this apartment.

A classic new American musical will be hitting Broadway this spring…a musical about holding onto a dream and simply not letting go. As New Yorkers, we should all be able to connect to this dream, because if not, we wouldn't still be living here, right?
We wanted to be the first to tell you about the show that will no doubt be up for a Tony in 2013 (we're only speculating here, but have a good feeling!) The show is "Hands On A Hard Body", and the plot goes a little something like this:
"TEN Contestants. FOUR Days. ONE Truck. For ten hard-luck Texans, a new lease on life is so close they can touch it. Under a scorching sun for days on end, armed with nothing but hope, humor and ambition, they'll fight to keep at least one hand on a brand-new truck in order to win it. In the hilarious, hard-fought contest that is HANDS ON A HARDBODY only one winner can drive away with the American Dream.
Inspired by true events, this new musical features a book by Doug Wright (Pulitzer Prize winner, I Am My Own Wife), lyrics by Amanda Green (Bring It On: The Musical), and music by Trey Anastasio (Phish) and Amanda Green. Directed by Neil Pepe (Speed-The-Plow) with musical staging by Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys, Memphis), it is based on the acclaimed 1997 documentary of the same name by S.R. Bindler, produced by Kevin Morris and Bindler."

Bionic Pancreas Associated with Better Glycemic Control in Type 1 Diabetes — Physician's First Watch
Bionic Pancreas Associated with Better Glycemic Control in Type 1 Diabetes
By Kelly Young
Edited by Susan Sadoughi, MD, and Jaye Elizabeth Hefner, MD
An investigational bionic pancreas — a wearable, automated, bihormonal device — is associated with better glycemic control than the current standard of care in patients with type 1 diabetes, according to crossover studies published in the New England Journal of Medicine and presented at the American Diabetes Association's annual meeting. (Of note, several authors hold patents or have pending patent applications on blood-glucose-control systems.)
During the 5-day intervention, patients wore a bionic pancreas that received data wirelessly from a continuous glucose monitor. Patients could tell the device the approximate size of their meals, and it delivered glucagon and insulin, based on an adaptive algorithm. During the control period, patients used their insulin pumps.
For 20 adults, the mean plasma glucose during the bionic-pancreas period was 138 mg/dL, and the percentage of time with glucose readings under 70 mg/dL was 4.8%.
For 32 adolescents, their scheduled mean plasma glucose was 138 mg/dL during the bionic-pancreas period and 157 mg/dL during the control period. Adolescents didn't see a reduction in the time with hypoglycemia, possibly, the authors say, because their hypoglycemia was rapidly addressed in a camp setting.

Every 17 minutes, at least six Americans lose a loved one to suicide. Ninety percent of suicidal individuals show warning signs which provide an opportunity to intervene.
The Anoka-Ramsey Community Counseling Department and the college clubs and organizations are working to address this national crisis and help concerned people get involved by sponsoring a free event.
A QPR suicide prevention workshop will take Monday, April 29, 11 a.m. to noon or 1 to 2 p.m., in the Coon Rapids Campus Legacy Room.
Community members are encouraged to attend. Several local mental health agencies will be in attendance as well.
QPR stands for Question, Persuade and Refer, which are three simple steps that anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide.
In the hour-long program, participants can learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade and refer.
The workshop's goal is that participants will walk away from the training with the skills to help someone who is depressed, discouraged and needing help.

A 23 year-old Oldham County woman has died as a result of injuries sustained in a collision in Henry County on Tuesday, March 15.
Kentucky State Police public information officer Trooper Michael Webb said Sarah M. Cornish, of La Grange, was on her way to work at Park Place community living center in New Castle.
She was traveling East on Kentucky 146 at 6:55 a.m. when she lost control in a sharp curve at Dawkins Lane, causing her vehicle to hit a nearby tree.
"We have had wrecks there over the years," he said.
That which was lost has now been found.
The Sulphur Christian Church bell, stolen about 1.5 weeks ago, has been found.
Kentucky State Police Public Affairs Officer Trooper Michael Webb said in the course of investigation, troopers received a tip about the bell's whereabouts.
According to a Campbellsburg Post 5 media release "it was determined that Eric C. Klink, 34 years old from Bedford, stole the bell from the church."
Cathy Lawrence's parents donated the bell to the church.
Since Eminence Independent Schools assumed operation of the Warrior Activity Center, formerly the Eminence Community Life Center, attendance at the facility has increased.
WAC director Alex Jensen told EIS board members that new recreational and educational opportunities are the key. Jensen used a PowerPoint presentation to highlight the programs.
Attendance at the EIS After-School Program was doubled from a year ago. From January through February 2010 the program attendance was 317. For the same period in 2011 there were 652 sign-ins.
Marvin and Julie Whitesides opened Starvin' Marvin's Restaurant in Pendleton just last year, but when an EF3 tornado leveled two homes in Eminence last month decided they needed to help.
Marvin Whitesides said Janet Spies and Ronnie Graves, whose home was one of two destroyed by the tornado, are regulars at the cafe. "He comes in sometimes two, three times a day," he said, "and Janet comes in about three times a week."
So, one night last week Whitesides cooked up enough fried chicken and fixings to feed up to 150 people.
Just why they thought it was a good idea isn't clear.

On Monday afternoon scanners blasted an alarm of a grass fire at the Smithfield Cemetery that was spreading.
Lake Jericho fire chief Guy Coombs said Morris Clark, Jr. was clearing limbs and other debris at Smithfield Cemetery.
The wind caught his burn pile and flames quickly spread toward the adjoining property of Minice McAlister. "It was lucky the fields were mowed around it," Coombs said.
He said Clark and his wife, June, fought it on their own using a yard rake and shovel, but couldn't contain the fire.

I'm here to deliver a warning.
A few years ago my friends and I were out walking in the woods. Jim, Mark and I had all met at school in accounting and were brought together by our mutual dislike of our teacher.
There was a really great bit of woods a couple of miles out from my house. One day, Jim had the idea to go exploring there. Mark and I agreed, of course, as we loved spooky things.
So there we were, in the woods, lost. The sun had gone down half an hour ago and I'd lost the map. We were all sure that if we just picked a direction and kept walking we'd find our way out. It was a pretty small area, after all.
After a while, we came upon something strange. A log cabin stood alone in a small clearing--so small, in fact, that one of the walls were up against trees. The roof was gone and the walls were burned halfway to the ground. Mark suggested that we go inside, but I wasn't so sure.
I reminded him that it was already pretty dark, and that we could always come back here tomorrow. He reasoned that we would be hard pressed to find it and, with that, he moved to the door.
At first, the door wouldn't move, but after a few good kicks it came off its hinges. Mark led the way in. The walls were scratched as if something had tried to get out and the little furniture that was there had been overturned. A small bed was on the far wall with no mattress and no sheets.
I found a lantern and some matches hung up on the wall, so I lit it. I was glad to have some light.
That is, I was glad until I saw the cabin. The walls were covered in blood. Lots of it. The walls were splashed with it in different shapes, as if someone had been ripped to shreds. There was a long streak of it heading towards the door, but stopped about a foot short of it. We all just stared at it for a moment. And then we ran.
I dropped the lantern in the cabin, sending it up in flames. As it burned we ran as hard as we could. It felt like an eternity but we finally burst out of the woods and onto the road. We ran all the way back to my home. From there Jim and Mark were able to call their parents to come and pick them up. That was the end of it, or so I thought.
The next day Mark called me and told me to meet him in the warehouse, because he had something to show us. I agreed to come quickly and hung up the phone.
The warehouse was an old meat-packing plant a couple of miles from the center of town. It had been abandoned after a couple of the employees had been murdered there. One of them had been the owner's son, so he couldn't bear to work there anymore. He closed up shop and tried to sell the plant. No-one would buy it though. They were too scared by the murders.
I rode my bike down there and met Jim outside the door. We went in together to find Mark inside, sitting at a table. He had a book in front of him, the cover half-burnt and blackened. He told us that he'd found it in the cabin yesterday and pocketed it. We were curious to see what was inside.
Mark told us that he'd read over it a bit, and that it was a grimoire. When we asked what a grimoire was he said that it was a manual on how to do magic and rituals, summon entities from beyond and whatnot. That sounded pretty cool, so we asked what we had to do.
Big mistake.
Mark wrote some stuff on the floor in an arcane language and stood up. He lit some candles and told us to stand around the writing in a circle. We turned off the lights and did just that. He then took a knife and cut himself, grabbing the blade with his left hand and pulling it across with his right. We watched as he then placed his hand on the ground and smeared the blood across the writing. Standing up, he handed us the knife. Jim took it and did the same before handing it to me. I hesitated, but I eventually took the knife and copied.
Mark opened the grimoire and started chanting in a strange language. The candles went out and I couldn't see a thing. I blacked out a moment later. When I came to I was in an office. I got up and looked around, figuring out that I was in the supervisor's office in the plant. I looked out through the window and what I saw horrified me. Jim had his chest ripped out and his entrails splashed across the floor. Blood was everywhere. Mark was hanging from the ceiling by his intestines. I couldn't take it, and I threw up.
I ran home and went straight upstairs to the bathroom. I showered, washing the blood off me before stepping out to look at myself in the mirror. I had a few deep gashes across my arms and my face was cut up pretty badly.
I called the police to go and have a look at the warehouse, telling them what had happened. A little while later they came to my house and arrested me.
I'm on death row now. I'm writing this as a warning to everyone not to practice evil rituals. Some things were not meant to be messed with.
It turned out that Mark had hid a camera in the warehouse with the intention of capturing what happened. I was shown the video during the trial.
I had just bent down to smear blood on the ground. Mark had opened the book and started chanting. The candles went out. What I saw next will haunt me for the rest of my short life.
I walked over to the table and picked up the knife. Jim turned and asked me where I was going, and I responded by plunging the knife into his chest and repeatedly stabbing him until his organs spilled out. I then turned my attention to Mark. He wrestled the knife from me and attacked, slicing up my face. I acted as though I couldn't feel a thing and knocked him out. I cut out his intestines and climbed a ladder up to the ceiling where I hung him, still alive, from one of the metal beams.
The rest of the video was him screaming as he slowly died.
I can honestly say that death can not come fast enough for me. Please, please do not make the same mistake I did.
To this day the book has never been found.

text: Wasn't sure the best board to ask this but I thought I'd try here first. Also checked the sticky and did a search, but still not coming up with it and sorry if I missed it. Anyway, the question is that we will be buying souvenirs, gifts, etc at the parks and resorts and wondering about the delivery back the resort, or is it to our room? option...wondering if it's still available and how you do it. Also, is there a way to have a Disney merchandise gift shipped directly to...wherever (in the U.S.)..... either from the shop it's purchased at, or from the resort after it's delivered? While we are enjoying our ten day stay at the Beach Club we will be missing our granddaughter's birthday and thought, since she is such a big Disney fan, that it might be fun to surprise her with a gift sent from Disney World. Any thoughts or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

LIGA MX FINAL BREAKS RECORDS ON UNIVISION AND RANKS AS THE NO. 1 PRIMETIME PROGRAM amONG ADULTS 18-49 and adults 18-34 ON sunday night
Liga MX Final is Highest Rated Liga MX Match on any Network Among Total Viewers 2+
Univision Ranked as the No. 1 Most Social Broadcast Network, Regardless of Language, on May 26
MIAMI – MAY 29, 2013 – Univision Deportes, the sports arm of Univision Communications Inc., the leading media company serving Hispanic America, today announced that its live coverage of the Liga MX final featuring Club America vs. Cruz Azul delivered 4.5 million Total Viewers 2+, 2.6 million Adults 18-49 and 1.3 million Adults 18-34. Airing live from Azteca Stadium in Mexico City, Mexico on Sunday, May 26 from 8:50 p.m. to 11:46 p.m. ET, the Liga MX final was Sunday's highest rated primetime program, regardless of language, on all of broadcast television with Adults 18-49 and Adults 18-34. The historic match also made Univision the No. 1 broadcast network in primetime among Adults 18-34, beating ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC.
The home of soccer, Univision Deportes holds the most media rights to the Liga MX, including Club America, and will welcome rights to the Cruz Azul and Chivas teams in July 2013. In fact, Univision Deportes aired more Liga MX playoff games in the 2013 Clausura season than any other network, regardless of language. Sunday's Liga MX final included unprecedented coverage of the impending match, with 13 hours of coverage produced live from Azteca Stadium in Mexico City.
This Sunday's Liga MX final was the highest rated Liga MX match on any network ever among Total Viewers 2+. It also was the third highest rated Liga MX match on any network among Adults 18-49, trailing the America vs. Chivas SuperClasico on Univision that aired on March 18, 2007 and the Pumas vs. Chivas final on Univision on June 13, 2004. Breaking more records, the 2013 Clausura season was the highest rated season on Univision Deportes platforms since the 2007 Clausura season.
In a dramatic ending that crowned America the winner of the 2013 Liga MX Clausura season with a win over Cruz Azul, the Liga MX final on Univision outperformed all NBA playoff games featuring Memphis and San Antonio, the NASCAR Sprint Cup on FOX and all NHL playoff games, among other sports events last week, among Adults 18-49 and Adults 18-34. On the night, the Liga MX finale on Univision ranked as the No. 2 Sunday night program behind the NBA playoffs among Adults 18-49 and Adults 18-34.
In local markets, the Liga MX final made Univision the No. 1 broadcast station during the time period in the following markets:
- Among Total Viewers 2+ in Los Angeles, New York, Houston, Dallas and Phoenix
- Among Adults 18-49 in Los Angeles, New York, Houston, Dallas, Phoenix and Sacramento
- Among Adults 18-34 in Los Angeles, Houston, Dallas, Chicago, Phoenix and Sacramento
Additionally, among Adults 18-49, the Liga MX final featuring America vs. Cruz Azul was the most watched Liga MX match on Univision since 2011 in four out of the Top 5 Hispanic markets – Los Angeles, New York, Houston and Dallas.
On social media, Univision ranked as the No. 1 most social broadcast network, regardless of language, with the Liga MX final ranking as the No. 1 social broadcast program and sports event, on May 26 according to SocialGuide. In addition, the Liga MX final had more social engagement than TNT's NBA Miami Heat vs. Indian Pacers game – delivering more tweets per unique.
Videos, listings, score highlights, additional information and more is available for Liga MX fans at UnivisionDeportes.com Also, real-time updates, scores and stats can be accessed by downloading the Univision Deportes app for Smartphones. Game updates are also available on Facebook.com/UnivisionDeportes and on Twitter via @UnivisionSports.
After this Sunday's exciting end to the 2013 Liga MX Clausura, the ball keeps rolling on Univision Deportes with "90 Dias de Delirio" (90 Days of Madness). Univision Deportes will feature extensive coverage of the world's most popular sport with the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup in Brazil, the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup, the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey, as well as highly-anticipated matches featuring the U.S. National Team, the Mexican National Team, the German National Team, plus MLS matches including the 2013 MLS All-Star Game. With more than 100 games and 3,000 hours of live soccer over a period of 90 days, Univision Deportes continues to be the home of soccer in America this summer. In addition to its coverage of "the beautiful game", Univision Deportes will continue its live coverage of FIA Formula One World Championship.

Would anyone have any suggestions for reloading in apartments? Every press I have checked out has to be bolted to a bench. Are there any alternatives?

Midway has a portable reloading bench for $50 that might work. I don't know anyone that has one, so I don't know how sturdy they are though.

I havent tried it myself but I have heard that others in your prediciment have used one of the black and decker folding benche/vices (I think they call them the workmate) with reasonable success. I do have one of the B&D benches and have found it to be very useful, not at all gimicky like it looks on TV, but I've never needed to mount my press on it.

I highly recommend a bolted bench. You will need a very sturdy surface to work on. You could improvise a small one in an apartment.
You could get by with a 2x4 about 16x18". Put two hinges on one 16" side and screw it into the wall studs. A removable leg could be made with threaded pipe and something to thread it onto. Screw this into the 2x4. This will give you a fold-away bench to work from (just unscrew the leg and the bench lays against the wall). I would then mount the press on another 2x4 of the same dimensions and then bolt it on to the first piece (unbolting it each time to put it away), or using clamps for somewhat easier removal, but a more clumsy work area.
Perhaps you could bolt it to a small piece of wood and then place sandbags, bricks, or small children on the board to hold it down on a table or similar surface.
You could also use long, adjustable nylon straps attached to the 2x4 to strap it onto a kitchen table to similar surface (one horiztontally and one vertically).

I am in the same boat. However, I am lucky enough to have a 5'x5' walk in storage room right in my apartment. But it full of shelves and tool boxes.
After a little homework here on TFL and a little clean up of the storage closet, I went out and bought the Workmate. I have yet to mount my press becasue its hunting season right now. But as soon as the freezer is full, I will get started.
I did my homework, and given my cramped quarters I think the workmate will do the job. Once I can afford a real house with a work shop or garage I will still have the work mate to help me with my "honeydo" list

The setup I have been using for years is a sawhorse. Believe it or not, mounted on it I have a MEC 600, an Ammomaster progressive and an Ammomaster single. The progressive is bolted to the middle of the arm. I c-clamped 2 3/4" thick boards on each side for table tops and to mount the MEC and single stage.

Is your apartment too small for a bench? I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my wife. I used the other bedroom to set up a bench made of 6' long 2x6's for my work/reloading bench. Put a peg board up behind it to hold tools and act as a "space saver", a few #3 or #5 parts bins mounted on vertical surfaces, and you can justify it's existence fairly easily!

You might want to check out a Lee Hand Press. I'm in the same predicament you're in, and this was the only acceptable option for me. With a hand press you can reload anywhere--and they only cost $27 from Midway. They take standard dies and you can reload just about any caliber with them. Mine works great.

The office supply companies sell a 2'x4' folding table that works pretty well. Just bolt the 2x6 that holds my Redding to mine. C-clamps can also be your friend.
I've also been thinking of building a reloading box like some of the benchrest boys use - They'll hold an RCBS partner press, etc., already set up to go.

Your very first step is to tell absolutely no one that you are reloading ammo in your apartment. Especially if it's a multiple unit complex.

Back when I lived in an apartment, I mounted the press to a 2x4. That 2x4 sat on top of the kitchen table and would fasten with wing nuts to another 2x4 that was under the table and which had two 2x4 legs. A "sandwich" arrangement. The kitchen table made it steady and the two legs kept the table from rocking when working the press. And there was room on the table to spread out all the components.

My portable rig has a 1/4" steel base plate, with a 2-1/2" threaded fitting welded near a corner. A piece of 2-1/2" about three feet long (or whatever length suits you) connects the base to a similar plate on top (the threaded fitting is welded more near the center). The upper plate is about 8" by 12".
I can mount a Dillon on one end, and an RCBS "O" press on the other. I also bolt a powder measure to it.
If you're full-length resizing rifle cases, one foot on the base plate is plenty of "heft".
Paint it against rust; glue a piece of linoleum-like material on the bottom to prevent scratching a hardwood floor...

I just use an old desk that my dad found somewhere and bolted the Dillon to it. It works really well, I put stuff in the drawers and in little storage bins I put on the desk. I wish I had a better picture of the desk to show you, but you can see what I have set up in the background.

Head to the local builder's supply (lumber yard) and find a 2 foot length of 2 X 12 (2 X 6 will work.) Bolt your press to the plank, along with the ammo measure and whatever else you have. Then clamp the plank to a table with decent sized C-Clamps. The unit stores when not in use and sets up quickly. It's stable and reliable, not Mickey Mouse. You can mount equipment on a couple planks and use the one you need without setting up the whole operation. Also works out in the field off the tailgate of a pickup truck. (Pad the clamp and don't put a dent in the tailgate!)

Appartment Re-Loading:
1. DON'T let the landloard know you are doing it because they will tell you to STOP or give you a moving notice. They will tell you it is a fire hazard.
2. A portable press stand would work excellent.
3. A Lee Terret or a single stage press would work well. If you can find whaat you are find what you are looking for, in a KIT, get it.

Zoltan is out and Matt McBrier is in.
That should fix everything
2 scenarios. One in which Mahommes is available to us at 1/30 (hoping but not likely) and the second in which he is not.

2) Jordan Willis-OLB-K.St. 2) Fabian Moreau-DB-UCLA
3) Jalen Myrick-CB-Minn 3) Nate Peterman-QB-Pitt

Uh-oh...Tomlin is unleashing heck again.
It was a reasonable move. How many would complain that the team wasn't doing anything if Mesko had stayed after his most recent performances?
I don't know a lot about McBrier,but surely he can't be any worse.
Praise Allah!!!! This has been a long time coming. How bout replacing Paulson while we're at it for giving up the blocked punt and then almost getting the very next punt blocked again. He also had a chance to recover a fumble and messed that up too.
I guess Butler just doesn't have the leg strength?
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, hear the lamentations of their women.
hopefully it wont affect Suisham's kicks......
