Mets Spring Training Question 14: Second Base
With 14 days — yup, just two weeks — before pitchers and Molinas report, we examine question #14 that needs to be answered during Mets spring training: who is going to play second base?
By all accounts, it appears that the Mets will begin spring training with the plan of Daniel Murphy at second base. We've discussEd Murphy and 2B here many times before, and even if you are of the belief that he can play the position adequately, there is still the risk of him hurting himself yet again.
If you're like me and not convinced that second base is the best place for Murphy, then an audition could open up for Justin Turner, Ronny Cedeno, Jordany Valdespin, Reese Havens, and Josh Satin. Yes, Satin can play second base — perhaps, better than Murphy, though that's not saying much, is it?
From that group, I like Turner — just as I did this time last year. Ask me in five months and my answer might be Havens, but right now, I think Havens needs more seasoning. As for Valdespin, he appears to have the most raw talent of anyone, but there are still questions about his attitude.
As for Murphy, it's his job to lose. And that is the question: will Murphy prove to be either so inadequate or so dangerous to himself at second base that he won't be there on Opening Day? My guess is no — mainly because spring training rarely offers enough of a sample size that can be trusted, and there's a good chance that Murphy makes it through six weeks without breaking something, while the people in charge see what they want to see.
What say you? Do you think there's any chance of Murphy NOT proving himself to be the starting second baseman in spring training? If by chance he's not the Opening Day starter, who do you see usurping him? Answer in the comments.

If Murphy doen't injure himself during ST he'll be the Opening Day starter on 2B. I predict that Havens will perform good enough in Buffalo to warrant a call up in May/June and room will be made for him by trading Wright (I hope not) or Murphy (who might have good value).
Turner is a good bench player and back up, but should not be starting.
I keep seeing references to "questions about Valdespin's attitude" and never anything more than that.
What questions? Or does anybody know?
lessee …. John Sickels stated that the kid had a "high-maintenance mercurial personality " … Wally Backman benched him last year for dogging it … two years ago, he was thrown off the Savannah Sand Gnats for being a problem in the clubhouse … if you've ever seen him play, then you've likely seen him "forget" to hustle out ground balls. There are other things that have not been reported as widely. Bottom line is he's got talent, but not the kind of awesome talent that overshadows attitude issues.
thanks, there are certainly plenty of first hand accounts of his general disinterest in effort. Hopefully he gets it together because the talent is there to have a decent career as a regular at 2B.
I read somewhere (don't recall exactly where) that right before being traded to San Francisco, Carlos Beltran reached out to Valdespin and read him the riot act. Apparently Beltran used to spend a lot of time mentoring the minor leaguers during Spring Training every year so they all had a lot of respect for him.
From what I read (again, I can't recall which blog or blogs I read it on) Beltran told him about all the guys he's met over the years with Valdespin's level of talent that are washing dishes somewhere because they couldn't get their act together. Supposedly Valdespin responded after that happened. We can only hope he didn't forget all the sage advice during the offseason.
Go with the Irish Hammer and hope like all heck that Havens stays healthy and can force himself on the scene by midyear if needed.
Are you "the Davey Schneck?" Homers galore first week in the majors?
I'm an admirer of that Davey Schneck.
If last years spring training was any indication, the Mets have the opening day roster 99% set and very little will cause them to change anything (Brad Emaus) so Murphy will be starting at 2B so long as he isnt on the DL.
Turner and Cedeno's playing time needs to be limited, so I see Havens getting a fair shot if Murphy or Wright or Davis go on the DL. Rather see him starting than to play Turner too much.
Do not give the job to Ronny Cedeno. He's not good offensively. You'd be better off not blocking someone with a higher ceiling like, Valdespin.
Trust me as a Cub fan.
I think Murph will be adequate enough to play there until Havens or Valdespin can make a case for themselves. If Valdespin continues to get in his own way some other GM might still like him in a trade package cause of his tools..question also, did surgery and more rehab finally help put Havens on tack for healthy season? I hope!
I've seen enough to know he can't play there everyday. I was curious last year when Terry had Turner at third and Murphy at second when clearly Murph is better at third and Turner is better than Murph at second. Seems to be that no one wants to believe in Turner. That's unfortuante, he's a gamer and it seems that he could hit more this year as he continues to develop.
Agreed on Turner. He's the forgotten man the second spring in a row and I bet he winds up being the best solution at 2B — again.
Agreed, Turner at second. Murph at third. Wright traded for a catcher.
I say that Murphy will exceed at 2nd base and show that it is his. He also will hit .320 again.
With a productive & "injury free" spring I would start Reese Havens. The only thing that has prevented him from being here already has been injury. He right this minute is superior to Murphy. It is all about fielding your best team for me & it is high time there were some kids w/ actual upside given a chance here. The same thing applies w/ Kirk for me.
Agreed, I want Havens right now. Only question is how do we get Lutz into the mix. If we get a substantial offer for DWright, Lutz gives us the chance to contemplate it.
What kind of outfielder or starting pitcher could Murphy help net in a trade? Then you can open up 2B to Satin or Turner until Havens and Valdespin have more time to show they're ready.
You have a logjam again at 2B but this time it's a more pleasant problem with Murphy having hit .320 in the majors, Satin and Turner doing it in the minors, Valdespin having a monster year last year in AA/AAA and Havens allegedly a doubles machine.
They want Murp's bat, but Turner was the best option at 2nd last year as a whole, and if Davis/Wright didn't man the corner positions, that is where he would be. The betting man says Murp will be at 2nd at the start, though very well might not be there at the end. Like the guy. Too bad the pressure is there to force a round peg in a square hole. Such is the NL, I guess.
If last year is who Turner is, ehn, he's not a bad fallback, but we might as well see if we can do better.
However, if that bad thumb was killing his power, then maybe he can do better and deserves a real shot.
That said, I like Murphy's bat and don't know where else to put it.
I'm surprised that everyone is dismissing Justin Turner. He surprised everyone last year with his consistency. Although he dropped off some, I don't think that completely discounts him as a possible starter: tiredness happens to a lot of first year players. the major league grind is a dramatic change from the minors. In addition, I think Turner is more viable option as a potential leadoff hitter than most of the other Mets. I want to keep Murphey — maybe giving Wright and Turner regular days off?

An 83-year-old man was sentenced Friday to lifetime probation with a suspended sentence of 16 years in state prison for murdering his 94-year-old rehabilitation center roommate by repeatedly hitting him in the head with a wooden rod, according to a release from the Orange County District Attorney's office.
William Leo McDougall, 83, pleaded guilty on Aug. 17 to one felony count of murdering Manh Van Nguyen, with a sentencing enhancement for the personal use of a deadly weapon.
McDougall's mental state at the time played a large part in determining his sentence, as did the wishes of the victim's family, McDougall's lack a of criminal record, his advanced age, and medical condition.
On Oct. 1, 2010, McDougall was sharing a room at Palm Terrace Healthcare Center in Laguna Woods with Nguyen as they both recovered from hip surgeries. That night while lying in bed, McDougall mistakenly believed that his wife was sleeping beside him, and mistakenly thought that his quietly-sleeping roommate, Nguyen, was singing loudly. McDougall became angry and got out of bed to silence the victim, believing that Nguyen was disturbing the defendant's wife, who in reality was not present.
McDougall took a wooden rod from the closet in their room and hit Nguyen multiple times in the head with the rod. A nurse, who had been approaching the room, reported the incident to staff members, who restrained McDougall.
The victim was taken to the hospital, where he died due to blunt force trauma to the head.
Nguyen's wife of 58 years and four adult children, who viewed a video interview and confession from the defendant in 2010, submitted a family letter for the court, which says in part, "We got to hear what actually happened to our father ... and how he was killed (and most importantly, hearing directly from the person who did it and admitted it). We fully understand nothing can be done now that will bring our father back to us. This is a real tragedy in which all parties involved have suffered tremendous losses and will continue to suffer for years to come. It is indeed a lose-lose situation for all."
McDougall's wife submitted a letter for the victim's family, which says in part, "Our entire family is devastated by what Bill did, which we cannot explain, and nothing could ever justify Bill's conduct. I can only say that his actions must have been the product of illness ... his surgery, old age, or a combination of factors unknown to me. I realize what an unbelievable nightmare this has caused the Nguyen family and the McDougall family ... I offer my sincere condolences on behalf of the entire family and ask for forgiveness for Bill, even in spite of the terrible pain he has caused, only because the 'real' man I have known for over 58 years is not the one [who has] done this horrible deed."
The OCDA submitted a sentencing brief, which says in part, "Mr. Nguyen was an honorable 94-year-old man who was very much loved and respected by everybody who knew him, especially his family ... Doing the right thing is not always easy. This is most certainly true in this case. As a prosecutor, it is much easier to argue that a defendant convicted of murdering an innocent victim should be sentenced to spend the rest of his or her life in prison. In the vast majority of murder cases, that would be the right and just thing to do. Not in this case. The People's objective is not to do what's easy; rather, it is to do what's right, fair, and just."
The OCDA continues, "The People's recommendation [for lifetime probation] in this case is in no way, shape, or form a reflection solely of the value of the life of Mr. Nguyen. If that was the case and the People's recommendation was to be made solely based on the value of the life of Mr. Nguyen or on the harm that was inflicted upon him and his family, the People's recommendation would have been a sentence of life in prison. However, as the law dictates, the People's recommendation is based on the totality of all the circumstances relating to the specific facts of the crime, the victim, and the defendant. This is a tragic case and it has been so since day one."

The Mirage makes no pretense towards being anything other than a luxury runabout: There's no fishing gear, for example, and her fit and finish is definitely in the yachty class. (Although there is a cooler.) Access to the foredeck is via the walk-though windshield; stainless rails help keep crew onboard. An electric windlass with anchor and 33 m (108') of chain is optional. Why is a Powerboat Called "Windy"?Hugo Vold started Windy Boats in 1966 in Skarpnes, a town in southern Norway with a long history of seafaring and boatbuilding. Vold's father was a fisherman, working the often treacherous waters of the nearby Skagerrak Channel. Even in the worst weather, the elder Vold's rugged boats always brought him home; all of them were called "Vindy." When he started his boatbuilding company, Hugo Vold named it in honor of his father and his father's seaworthy boats. Today Windy Boats is a wholly owned subsidiary of Periscopus AS, an Oslo holding company with broad interests across a wide range of industries. The swim platform has a stainless steel ladder stowed under cover; all the Windy's hardware is stainless, as is the windshield frame. The platform's teak deck is optional. A cockpit canopy is standard, but we aren't crazy about the varnished mahogany canopy hatch – people have to climb over it to reach the platform. It'll be scratched in no time. There's a shower on the platform, but no hot water.Today, Windy Boats still relies on traditional Norwegian boatbuilding skills, but the old ways are supported by modern technology. The company is housed in a modern facility where 160 employees build Windys from 25 (the Mirage is the smallest) to 58 feet (7.68 to 17.75 m). The design department relies on modern computer programs to create new boats. However, skilled craftsmen and –women still attend to the details, using fine woods (mahogany in the Mirage), stainless steel fittings and high-quality fabrics above decks and below. The result is a line of very nice boats combining excellent construction and yachtlike appointments.Molded steps lead from the cockpit to the foredeck, via a walk-through windshield. There are no side decks to speak of, so this is the only route forward. Handrails built into the windshield frame provide added security when making the climb.Gas and Diesel PowerThe 25 Mirage is powered by a single sterndrive, but Windy offers both gas (benzine) and diesel options by Volvo Penta. The company doesn't publish an official list of engines – at least, we couldn't find one -- but in an email Windy Boats' president/CEO Knut Heiberg-Andersen said Mirages have been delivered with Volvo Penta 5.0 GXiE, 5.7 GXiE and 8.1 GXiE gas engines, and D3-220 and D4-300 diesels "to mention a few." All engines spin Duoprop drives. Windy craftspeople finish the 25 Mirage with beautiful details, like this varnished mahogany trim/drink holder around the cockpit sink. Varnish isn't too hard to maintain if you keep after it from the beginning, lay on a fresh coat every couple of months and keep the sun off it.If maximum top speed is your goal, a gas V-8 will be your choice. We haven't tested the 25 Mirage yet, but the company has, when the boat was first introduced in 2000. With a 280-hp Volvo Penta 5.7L GSi V-8, Windy claims 46.0 knots max, cruise around 30 knots. The 320-hp 5.7 GXiE should produce even better performance.But we think most folks in the Windy market will prefer diesel. With a single 214-hp D4-300 Duoprop, the 25 Mirage ran 38.5 knots max in company tests, again cruising around 30 knots. In 2001, the company also ran the boat with a 272-hp KAD300 Duoprop; top speed was 44.0 knots, cruise in the mid-30s. Today a 310-hp D6 will be the engine of choice in this power range. Check with a Windy dealer for up-to-the-minute engine choices. We'd stick with the D4-300: It's the best combination of speed, cruise and fuel economy, in our opinion.Belowdecks, the 25 Mirage's accommodations are about what we'd expect in layout – what else can you do? – but nicely designed, styled and constructed. The table converts the lounge to a berth, and there's a head under cover at the end of the lounge. The cabin sole is cherry with darker wood accents.Prices and RecommendationAccording to Mr. Heiberg-Andersen, a Windy 25 Mirage will cost between $130,000 and $160,000, plus taxes, depending on engines and options. There are plenty of Windy dealers all over Europe, the Middle East and even in Thailand. At press time a Swiss dealer had a 2011 Mirage listed for 189,440 Swiss francs (€144,800, approx.), powered with a 320-hp Volvo Penta 5.7 GiE gas engine.You'll have a hard time buying a Windy 25 Mirage in the U.S.; we found only one dealer, in Connecticut. Nevertheless, we think buyers looking for a classy 25-footer in other parts of the world should check out this boat before buying anything else. She's not everyone's idea of a cruiser, but for dayboating and the occasional overnight, she should be a good choice.

I picked this hotel for a 4 night stay in Turin in October promarily due to it's location. It is right next to the Puerto Neuva Station, so I decided it would be easy to find and on the maps it was close to the bus/tram and Metro. The hotel is directly opposite the station. It may not look much... More

I blog about entrepreneurs, their world, and the new, new thing.
The secret world of health-care pricing | Marketplace.org.
A segment on Marketplace* last night (June 11) provided insight into the workings of the mysterious "Relative Value Update Committee", commonly called the "RUC" (rhymes with "Duck"). This committee of doctors operates under the auspices of the American Medical Association (more). In invitation-only sessions it determines what the medicare reimbursement should be for different medical procedures. Medicare reimbursements are the starting point for most other fee negotiations in the U.S. medical economy. As Marketplace put it, "[the RUC determines] the economic hierarchy of modern medicine": i.e., that dermatologists and gastroenterologists can earn $500k to $1 million per year and general practitioners earn on average about $175k.
The RUC is composed entirely of doctors; there are no health care economists or consumer advocates on the committee. The argument goes, only doctors can understand the judgments that need to be made. Until recently the names of the members were kept secret. Most of the ~30 members are specialists. This helps me understand how the economic hierarchy of U.S. medicine tilts towards specialists and the pay-per-procedure business model they employ. Were it not the fact that very few doctors smoke, I would call this a "smoke filled room" decision process.
There are clear problems with the outcomes that the RUC has produced:
Undoubtedly this is hard to change, like most other aspects of the health care system. But it looks like a very big part of the health care cost problem to me. I can't believe that non-doctors are not smart and informed enough to contribute to this process. And I've never seen a decision process that was not improved by judicious dose transparency/accountability and by diverse points of view.
* The American Public Media business news program called Marketplace which is broadcast weeknights on NPR.
Transparency in how medical reimbursement is determined needs to happen at many levels. First, the RUC. Then, individual doctors need to be upfront with what they are billing to patients, and then insurance companies need to be upfront with how much they are paying to providers and what the contractual discounts are. At this point, there's no way to price or value healthcare because different patients pay (or have paid on their behalf) different fees depending on the insurance coverage. And here's the worst part of all: patients with no insurance are either paying nothing at all (which is widely reported) or they are paying the very highest prices because they can't negotiate with providers for discounts like the large corporate insurance networks can.
Yes, the RUC should be more transparent, but so should the whole system.
There is a stinging critique and background on the RUC that ran on Kaiser Health News at http://www.kaiserhealthnews.org/columns/2011/january/012111kepplerkibbe.aspx. It's worth a read.
The more transparency in healthcare pricing, the less drag their will be on the US economy. The percentage of US GDP now sucked in by healthcare costs is close to 20%, and we're all getting sicker/fatter at a pace that outstrips even the growth in those healthcare costs. That the industry's prices are set by what amounts to a star chamber is the root cause of the steep inflection point in costs – so creative destruction is desperately needed. That will come from the street: patients asking "what does that cost?", getting the answer, and then negotiating. How will that work? This LA Times piece gives a glimpse: http://articles.latimes.com/2012/may/27/business/la-fi-medical-prices-20120527
I'm guessing a trip to the gastroenterologist would be considered not the best use of money if it was only an inspection, correct? I'd rather not head all the way up to Naperville, IL, if it's just an inspection, and I have to pay for it.

First Day of School, September 3, 2014
Dear Parents,
Our second round of data collection related to Digital Conversion is now taking place. Please take a minute to complete the survey before the end of the day on April 21.
Thank you!
STEM News...
We are three months into the Digital Conversion and things have been very smooth. Teachers are implementing the iPads into their teaching more and more. Students are becoming very proficient and are learning how to be their own problem solvers. We still deal with several issues per day in which iPads have been forgotten at home or have come to school uncharged. iPads need to come to school every day charged and ready to go.
Other reminders...
We look forward to this opportunity for our school and our students. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us. To view frequently asked questions regarding the digital conversion please click here .
NEW! Bus Route Look-Up Tool
ParentVUE™ from Synergy is here!
ParentVUE™ is Bend La-Pine Schools' new parent web portal. ParentVUE™ provides the ability to monitor your child's education progress.

Help Buckingham by doing the things you do everyday...
Helping out Buckingham has never been easier. We are trying to phase out traditional fundraising and replace it with passive fundraising. But in order to this we need everyone to take a few minutes to initiate the process. There are several opportunities that our PTA has identified and are supporting.
The easiest is to register your Safeway. We earn money when you spend money at Safeway. Last year alone the PTA earned over $9,000 from people shopping at Safeway and the money the PTA earns goes right back to our classrooms. Please visit the PTA website www.buckinghampta.com to learn more.
Volunteer Background Checks - VERY IMPORTANT
There is a new process for school volunteer background checks. The good news is that the new form is online and that the turnaround on this process is very quick 24-48 hours. The bad news is that everyone has to complete the new form - even if you submitted a form last year. You may also access the form from home at: volunteer.bend.k12.or.us/
We have a computer set up in the office that parents may use to submit their form. Please bring your identification with you.
Positive Behavior Intervention & Support
To view Buckingham videos, pictures, and descriptions of how we support our students with problem solving, character education, positive awards, and clear expectations, click Buckingham PBIS
Parent Information
See the new School Snapshot page and the new Parent Information page (under the General Information submenu above) that provides access to a variety of information including:
PTA Website
School Report Card
Here is a link to our State report card - http://bit.ly/19pMOrg. Buckingham received a rating of "5" and was designated a Model School by the State of Oregon.
It is a privilege to serve as principal of Buckingham. Our school has an outstanding reputation and is filled with enthusiastic students willing to learn, supportive parents/guardians interested in their children's education, and a dedicated professional staff committed to providing the students with a quality education.
Buckingham Elementary School is a kindergarten through grade 5 school of approximately 490 students. We are a positive learning community committed to working together for the success of all students. Buckingham's staff works collaboratively to best meet the needs of our students. At Buckingham, we utilize a Response to Intervention framework so that all students receive high quality support matched to individual needs and goals. Individual progress is monitored frequently to insure that instruction is having the desired effect.
At Buckingham we are fortunate to have tremendous support from our parents and our community. Our PTA provides support for our teachers and activities for our students. We encourage each parent to stay active in their child's education. We understand and realize everyone leads busy lives, and it is often difficult to volunteer at school. However, taking just a few minutes in the evening to read to your child, talk with your child about school, or simply see that your child is organized for the next school day can have great benefits.
We are extremely proud of our school and know you'll be impressed by what you experience. If you have any questions or would like to contact me, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thank you,
Skip Offenhauser

Read more
Bethany and Jesse Bamber, married on July 6, 2013. The wedding ceremony was held in the newest addition to the Manor House, The Carriage House, which was beautiful hardwood floors and wood beams providing a cabin rustic feel to their wedding. Bethany's dress was purchased from David's Bridal and customized with beaded embellishments handmade by herself and her mom. While it rained on and off that day it didn't dampen their spirits.... Bethany had cute flower rain boots on hand for just such an occasion. Jesse looked fantastic in his President Tuxedo tux, with the groomsmen in blue ties and vests to match the blue bridesmaid dresses. Their friends surprised the couple with a baton twirler entrance to the reception, a nod to Bethany's past. At the end of the evening an impromptu circle encased the couple on the dance floor as they danced romantically to the last song of the night followed by a giant group hug.
Keeping traditions can be a fun way to bond with not only your family, but culture as well. Although it's cool to think that you're keeping traditions going that were taught centuries ago, I'm happy that some of them are simply just traditions of the past. There are some strange ones out there that I don't think I would want to try. Check them out for yourself!
Tossing of the Bouquet/Garter
Can you imagine having your guests come at you like barbarians tearing your fabulous dress to pieces in order to "grab some luck"? That's exactly what happened in earlier centuries throughout the world. Every guest used to think that if they grabbed a piece of the gown the bride was wearing that some good luck would happen in their life too. As years went on dresses became more and more expensive, so it became more common for brides to want to keep their dress. That's when bride's started to get creative and decided they would throw their bouquet or garter instead of having their beautiful dress ripped to shreds.

On behalf of my attention deficit disorder, I'd like to thank the folks at Flipboard for their new iPhone app. If you need me, I'll be hunched over my phone gawking at the screen. I haven't dug into it too much, but I'll be back with more impressions next week.
In related news, Twitter just released a new mobile client for their service, and the reviews have been mixed. Some people seem to like it, and some people not so much. I don't use Twitter, so this doesn't affect me all that much, but I'm curious to know what power users think?

What is a Resident Assistant (RA)?
A Resident Assistant is a student specially chosen to be responsible for the day-to-day life of the residence hall. He or she has lived in a USF residence hall for at least one year and is an upper-class student. The RA is often the first resource available for many students. Although the RA is not a trained counselor, he or she can help to sort out minor problems and refer residents to professionals when additional help is needed.
The RA plans several programs for the floor or hall each semester. These may be cognitive, community, personal, or holistic in nature. Suggestions from residents are very much appreciated in the planning of programs.
Resident Assistants make sure university rules are followed. Each hall is governed by the Rules and Policies found in the Student Handbook. Violations of these rules result in infringements upon the rights of residents, so it is in everyone's interest to see that policies are followed.
The RA is a valuable source of information. If you have questions or concerns about USF, your hall, classes, professors, etc., ask the RA. If he or she doesn't have the answers, the RA will be able to direct you to someone who does.
Finally, and most importantly, the RA will be there if you need someone to talk to. The RA will help you start new friendships and assist you on the way to getting the most out of your college experience.
How Can the Resident Assistant Help You?
- Answer questions.
- Be alert to residents' problems.
- Help new residents become oriented to their new home.
- Plan social and cultural events.
- Be a friend.
- Promote an academic atmosphere on the floor.
- Inform residents of university and residence hall guidelines.
- Keep residents up to date on important information and happenings on campus.

Coleman calls for Government to kick out Gaddafi squatters (From Times Series)

Cllr Brian Coleman calls for Government to kick out Hampstead Garden Suburb Gaddafi house squatter
9:45am Thursday 10th March 2011 in News By Alex Hayes
THE Government should intervene to kick out a group of squatters who have taken residence in a mansion belonging to the Gaddafi family in Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Councillor Brian Coleman has made the call in his capacity as Barnet and Camden London Assembly member after the group calling themselves Topple the Tyrants moved in yesterday.
The £11m eight-bedroom home bought by Saif Gaddafi in 2009 was put on the market last month, but taken off last week after the Government froze the family's assets.
Cllr Coleman said: "The Foreign Secretary (William Hague) should take action immediately to seize Gaddafi's son's house in Hampstead Garden Suburb in my constituency.
"The squatters, who are a blight to the area, should be evicted and moved-on to protect the nearby residents."
In January Cllr Coleman described some residents from the area, who emailed him angry at huge increases in parking charges, as "hysterical" and "over the top" in a council meeting.
Last month Finchley and Golders Green MP Mike Freer made a call for the Government to freeze the Gaddafi assets to stop them fleeing to this country.

Calf Stretch
Your calf muscles, or your lower leg muscles, will need a good stretch when you're done running. Here's what to do.
Quadricep Stretch
Your quadriceps (front thigh) muscles work hard when you're running, so they'll need a good stretch when you're finished. Here's what to do.
Hip flexor Stretch
Your hip flexor muscles help lift your legs up during running, so they need a good stretch when you're finished with your run. Here's how to stretch your hip flexors.
Hamstring Stretch
Your hamstring muscles, which run down the back of the leg from the pelvis to the lower leg, are prone to injury, so it's very important to stretch them. Here's how to do a hamstring stretch.
Triceps Stretch
You use your upper body when you're running, so it's important to stretch your arms when you've finished your run. Here's how to stretch your triceps, the muscles on the back of your upper arm.
Hip and Lower Back Stretch
This is a good move to stretch your hips and lower back.
Groin Stretch

Beginning Oct. 15 Minnesotans can see the original art submitted for the 2009-2010 federal duck stamp in an exhibition at the Bloomington Arts Center. The national contest can draw as many as 2,000 entries. Judging takes place Oct. 17-18.
"This is a rare opportunity to view the collective craftsmanship of the nation's premier waterfowl artists," said Jim Leach, a regional refuge supervisor for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. "It will be decades before this event returns to Minnesota."
Find duck-stamp entry viewing times and a calendar of related events.
Duck stamps can be purchased at any DNR licensing outlet or online at www.mndnr.gov (click on "licenses" at the top). Hunters age 16 and over must purchase the $15 stamp to hunt migratory waterfowl. Any conservationist may purchase a stamp to support wetlands habitat acquisition and restoration.

When it comes to running your business, do you believe in "going with your gut?" Or are you the type of person who likes to research, assess and analyze every option before you make a move?
Personally, I'm the former. But whether you're an information-seeker or operate on instinct, the best approach to running your business is to find the middle ground.
Relying too much on your gut instincts can spur you to jump into opportunities that aren't all they're made out to be, act rashly or make choices you'll regret later. But ignoring your gut can lead to equally damaging mistakes and missed opportunities. How can you balance the two?
If you're a gut person:

Since its premiere in 1824, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony has been used to celebrate major historical events such as the opening of the United Nations and the fall of the Berlin Wall. But it works just as well for personal ones, including birthdays and anniversaries.
Pacific Symphony conductor Carl St.Clair celebrates his 60th birthday this week, and John Alexander marks his 40th anniversary as artistic director of the Pacific Chorale. On Thursday, those organizations gave a stirring account of the Ninth at the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall in Costa Mesa.

Was on Humira for 3 years...it saved my life ...loved it. At age 66, no more medical insurance because of retirement...had to switch to Remicade to get Medicare and supplemental insurance to pay for it. Hate the 2 and 1/2 hours sitting at the doctors for an infusion. Felt better on Humira. Definitely Humira is the better of the Biologics. Didn't mind injecting with the pen but 2-3 hours of inf ...

Ease of Use
Three loading doses went fine. Increased one vial for 4th dose to hopefully get full eight weeks. Didn't work. Went for 5th dose at six weeks and increased again. As soon as it hit my system I started itching and broke out in hives. On to the next. So far my immune system has fought off everything and come back stronger than before.

Ease of Use
I felt my life was basically over before I started Remicade infusions. After my first infusion I began to feel like my old self again. No flares or pain. I've only had five infusions but am hopeful I continue to benefit from this. I've had itching and dry mouth but can handle that. I'm so much better off now.

Ease of Use
I received my fifth dose yesterday. I developed hives and my blood pressure spiked. Since starting, my hair has started to fall out and I itch a lot. Anyone else? I didn't think Remicade was helping me, but realized that after about 6-1/2 weeks prior to my infusion yesterday, I started feeling really crappy again. I realized that, yes!!!!, it was helping.

Sheriff's officials say the infant was shaken violently. The infant is listed in critical condition at Buffalo's Women & Children's Hospital.
Fuller was sent to jail after he was arraigned and couldn't make the $25,000 bail.

In 1998, an eagerly anticipated pill to restore men's sexual performance -- Viagra -- took six months to win marketing approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. But more than a year after its maker applied for the FDA's blessing, a medication shown to recharge the stalled sex drive of some women is riding a rockier road to approval.
Known as the Intrinsa patch, the product is designed to deliver small doses of testosterone through a woman's skin, boosting the level of the male sex hormone in her bloodstream. All women produce testosterone. But most women's testosterone levels decline with age, and surgical removal of the ovaries will cause a precipitous drop-off.

HOUSTON - A glance at Brandon Barnes and it's hard not to notice what he so prominently displays.
"People always ask me why I get tattoos, well I ask, "Why do you have art at your house?'," says Barnes. "People think this guy is a thug or this guy has been in jail, for some people, it just doesn't look good and that's cool with me."
As for his play, well that too is considered by some as reckless.
"Coming from a football background, it's something that will never leave me," says Barnes. "For me that's the only way I like to play."
He's really been left with no other choice given what he's been through just to get here.
As a football player coming out of high school, Brandon had two verbal offers from UCLA and Colorado State to go play at the next level. Unfortunately, those schools changed their minds, forcing the California native to switch back to the sport he'd played since he was 4.
"I wasn't a prospect in high school, people weren't coming to watch me play," says Barnes.
A productive year at Cypress Community College changed all that, sparking the interest of the Astros which made him sixth round pick in 2005.
"I always say it all worked out because God had a plan for me and he knew where I was supposed to be," says Barnes.
For 7 years, Barnes was in the minor leagues going from city to city, never seeming to catch that break he was looking for.
"I get chills thinking about it right now," says Barnes.
He isn't alone. His wife Shawn experienced his pain has well.
"As a wife, girlfriend or fiancé, it's hard to see a man break down like that, especially one that you love," says Shawn Barnes.
"She was the one that kept pushing me, she was the one that I would call at night, struggling and just down," says Barnes. "She would always tell me you're not coming home."
In August of 2012, her persistence and his perseverance paid off. Brandon Barnes was headed to the big leagues.
"I just remember just putting my shirt over my face and letting that 8 years of emotion just pour out," says Barnes. "I immediately made a phone call to my wife."
"He just kept saying, we're going to the show, we're going to the show," says Shawn.
"I don't think there is anyone in baseball that cried harder than I did," adds Barnes with a smile.
Since that call up, Brandon hasn't been back down to the minors.
"My prayer before the game is 'As I play for God, I play for my family and I play for myself'," says Barnes.
God and family.
Two cornerstones for oft-perceived bad boy and inspirations behind Brandon's previously mentioned tattoos.
"They tell a story," says Shawn. "They are really a peak into his heart."
"I know my art has a meaning behind it," says Barnes. "There is a significance to everything that's on my body."
Even two Roman numeral dates on his forearms have a special meaning as they signify another struggle, which came off the field.
"Before Kenadie, our daughter, we actually miscarried twice," says Shawn. "It's something that we share and nobody else does."
"I'm more worried about my faith and my family than playing a game," says Barnes.
Because baseball has come and gone before. Everything else, Brandon has learned to treasure.
"When I see him playing with my daughter, I know that she idolizes him already," says Shawn.
"I'm the luckiest person on earth," adds Brandon. "I've been blessed beyond belief and God is good."

No Siesta 'til Club Fiesta
Of all the entertainment venues on Teesside, and there have been many, the Club Fiesta arguably stands head and shoulders above the others in people's memories and affections. This nightspot, which was the brainchild of brothers Jim and Keith Lipthorpe is celebrated in a new book by Neil Anderson titled, 'No Siesta 'til Club Fiesta'. The book looks back over the startling history of this favourite nightclub, which first opened its doors to an enthusiastic public in April 1965.
Neil tells the story of the Club Fiesta from its inception through to its final days supported by hundreds of illustrations and pictures of the acts who played there. Even with just a flick through its pages it is amazing to see the galaxy of stars who graced its stage, a line-up more like one would expect for a theatre in London's West End than a venue on Norton Road in Teesside.
But that was the key to the success of the Club Fiesta, bringing the best talent to entertain the receptive audience. You could be sure of a good night out there and at a reasonable price to see some of the top entertainers of the day. But success did not come easily for the Lipthorpe brothers the pair made a huge personal and financial investment into the Club Fiesta, but it was their shared dream, as Neil explains in his book:
'It's hard to imagine the pressure Keith and Jim Lipthorpe must have been under as they approached opening night in April 1965. They had been working flat out for months to get the operation ready: they'd be managing teams of builders, set designers, decorators, sound people, publicists, agents for new artists, new staff...Keith Lipthorpe said, "I can't remember that much about the opening night because I'd been working non stop for three days and had no sleep. I ended up collapsing and the doorman carried me to stay at my brother's." By the launch the venture had cost £125,000 - an astronomical sum at the time.'
Neil is right to use the word astronomical, it was the equivalent of £1.6 million today, no wonder the brothers felt under pressure. But the opening night was a great hit even though at the last moment the brothers realised that although the acts were all organised they had no compere, so the two of them shared that duty! The big act on opening night was Mike and Bernie Winters who were enjoying much success on television at the time. Les Allan who was there that night recalls, 'We'd already seen Mike and Bernie Winters on television and we were not sure if they would come overall right on stage. But they were absolutely brilliant!'
But it was not just the acts, the Club Fiesta was special as Joan Topper remembers, 'The venue was luxury from the minute you walked through the door and the décor was out of this world. We could not believe Norton had such a place.' And from that moment on the club was assured of success, which it continued to enjoy for many years. You can read the whole story in Neil Anderson's wonderfully illustrated book 'No Siesta 'til Club Fiesta' published by ACM Retro (ISBN 978-1-908431-09-7) priced at £12.95 and is available from Chris Lipthorpe's www.club-fiesta.co.uk website and all good book shops. It is also available direct from at www.acmretro.com and Amazon and is on sale at the Evening Gazette reception.

I watch the Royal Variety show on TV last night. It was the 100th years and so they did a nostalgia section which featured; Jimmy Tarbuck, Arthur Askey, Bruce Forsyth, Tommy Cooper, Frank Carson, Morcambe and Wise,Les Dawson, Marti Caine etc. Could also have been for the Club Fiesta!
I remember the Fiesta well. It is a coincidence that Tommy Cooper should appear on the front cover of the book. My family were all there for my brother Alan's 21st. Tommy Cooper was appearing along with the Hollies.
Another time I went with friends from ICI Agricultural before I emigrated to Canada.
One time when I was home, I went with good friends to see Olivia Newton John. My brother-in-law made the comment that it would have been better if it had been Elton John. At the time I said "who".
I have fond memories of good times. Also remember Scampi and chips in a basket.
