49ers: New stadium will cost $854M
[size=12pt]49ers: New stadium will cost $854M[/size]
Posted: Wednesday April 25, 2007 12:01AM; Updated: Wednesday April 25, 2007 12:42AM
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) -- The San Francisco 49ers estimate the team will need $160 million in public money to help finance a new $854 million stadium, according to a report delivered Tuesday to the Santa Clara City Council.
Larry MacNeil, the team's chief financial officer, presented a financial breakdown for the stadium that includes a proposal for a city-created stadium authority to help fund the project.
The stadium authority would consist of funds from sources including naming rights, corporate founding partners, ticket tax financing, stadium builders licenses and concessionaire equity and pouring rights, MacNeil said.
MacNeil said the team and the NFL would contribute about $363 million.
The team's estimates fall within the city's stated spending goals. The city has told the team that the its contributions are capped at $180 million, and that cost overruns will have to be paid for by the 49ers.
Thanks to Josdin for the awesome sig!

Many scientists are concerned about the possible risks that genetically modified foods pose to people's health. But with GMO's so prevalent, it's nearly impossible to prepare a meal without them. Should we be worried?
"A genetically modified food is a food whose genomes, its chromosomes, have been altered so that it can grow in a special way," says Dr. Cara Natterson.
Genetically modified foods, or GMOs, first came into the U.S. Market in 1996. They were introduced to improve crop bounties and nutritional values, as well as for their ability to resist drought and cold.
The problem has come in when genetic modifiers have been used for less positive reasons, like engineering crops that can withstand higher doses of pesticides.
"There's a huge amount of research that looks at what pesticides do to our bodies," says Natterson. "As you can imagine, the effect of a pesticide inside your body is not great. Beyond the pesticides, some scientists worry that the GMO's themselves may be responsible for the rise in diabetes, obesity and food allergies."
She also says that scientists are not exactly sure yet what the implications are for genetic modifiers inside the body.
"There are scientists that believe that GMO's may be related to a variety of different illnesses. But I think the jury is still out in terms of whether that really happens or not. The best example that I've come across is the relationship between GMO's and food allergies. And what I've noticed in my reading is that the more GMO's children eat, the more reports of food allergies that we're seeing in the literature," explains Dr. Natterson.
But still, is extremely difficult to avoid GMO's.
"I think people have no sense of how much genetically modified material they're consuming on a day to day basis," says Natterson. "The problem is that genetic modification is not on the label. You don't see a bag of carrots that says, 'These are genetically modified carrots.' What you see is 'organic' or conventional. And, by definition, organic means not grown by genetically modified seeds."
For example, 85 percent of corn and 92 percent of U.S. soy crops are genetically modified.
"When you think about that number, you can't just think about your produce aisle, because soy and corn are in so many of the foods we eat. They are in the breads and corn paste and tortillas and frozen foods. These are products that form staple ingredients in so many of the foods that are in our grocery stores," says Natterson.
While she keeps an eye on new GMO research, she does not feel it's time to panic.
"With my own children, I don't lose sleep over the issue of genetically modified foods. We do our very best to buy organic, but I don't go crazy with it," she adds.

Amber Shock - Birrificio Italiano

2.66/5 rDev -27.9%
33cl brown, oddly-shaped bottle purchased from Domus Birrae in Rome.
Pours a muted amber colour, quite hazy, with a fairly heavy body. Head forms a very fine film of off-white across the top of the glass. Carbonation is fine and languid when tilted. The haze is a bit much, otherwise, it looks pretty good.
Nose is papery like wadded up wet newspaper. Slight fruity characters like banana skin. Mostly, though it's really weak. Given everything else, I expected something a bit stronger, potent if not exceptional—this smells a lot like nothing.
Lots of bananaskin on the palate as well, along with something else like fruit offcuts. Kiwifruit seeds, perhaps. Thin spiciness comes through as well, but again, everything is really very weak. The body has some heft behind it, but I can feel it without tasting it: the back in particular is very, very empty. It's a real shame.
Overall, really very weak and extremely uninspiring. Seriously: I don't get the point of this at all. It probably takes some amount of skill to make this so tasteless given its style, colour and weight. If only they'd put that skill to better use.

Poured on tap into a pint glass. Pours cloudy red/orange with a small slightly off white head. Smells of sweet fruit, not overly strong but nice. Tastes of some nice chocolate with slight fruit, nice balance. Beer is nicely carbonated light bodied nice finish. Overall a pretty good beer.

Another time Birrificio Italiano trade mark : an above the average foam . This time we encounter it in a perfect amber hue product caracterized for its stinging character .
Noticeable clearness too, despite of lack of any pasteurization .
Taste shows mainly malt,caramel and later citrus and bitter almond.
Medium body beer with a velvety mouthfeel but
at the same time spicy / stinging .
750cl = 8.5 at Birrificio Italiano .

4.03/5 rDev +9.2%
I wouldn't call this a doppelbock, it doesn't really match the style. It is, however, a nicely balanced strong amber lager. The color is a clear, clean amber, with a nice off-white foam with small and tightly packed bubbles. The aroma is a clean blend of German hops (fairly strong in aroma) and caramel malt. The caramel maltiness is appealing, but it takes a little bit of a backseat to the hops. The taste is sweet, with a little toffee and caramel in the front. There's also notable alcohol warming and considerable bitterness. Well balanced. The mouthfeel is rich and substantial. As you consume the beer, a variety of esters make themselves known as well, mixed with the alcohol. This is a moderately complex beer that's well made and nicely balanced.

3.73/5 rDev +1.1%
More of a Belgian type ale than the other beers I have tried from this brewer, and it looks filtered. Amber colour, tastes like a fine trappish ale. Triple hopped, with Hallertauer Magnum and Hallertauer Perle. Also on the sweet side, but a fine sour finish.

4.05/5 rDev +9.8%
Amber color, almost red, slightly veiled.
The head is decent, with some little bubbles, average compactness.
The smell is very inviting, with light caramel, not overwhelming. Good fuity, with apricot, peach, pineapple, citron. Citrus fruit. Even some touches of candies fruit. Light hint almost spiced, with talc. Complex and very pleasant.
The taste is a bit less complex, with malt, light caramel, and then the fruity and warming note, and hints of spices. Candy orange peel, strawberry. A good hop balances the taste.
Medium body, with a beautiful resolute aftertaste, spiced, but mostly with a quite longlasting hop.
Overall: a very good tasting beer, warming and pleasant.

With half of the preseason in our rear-view mirrors, which Miami Dolphin players have made the biggest impressions on us?
The Dolphins hit the practice field for the first time since Monday's preseason opener. And here are the highlights from today's double session.
The Dolphins practiced twice last night, including a rare 8 pm practice under the lights. Today the Dolphins only have one practice and it's scheduled for 3 pm. Yesterday, both Chad Pennington...
It's amazing the kind of firestorm that gets set off when you bring up the old reliable "Pennington vs Henne" debate. Things got heated yesterday and warning had to be given out. While healthy...
Donald Thomas reclaimed his spot with the first team at RG replacing Shawn Murphy. Meanwhile, Patrick Turner had a big day.
Less than a week until preseason game #1 for the Dolphins. I don't think I've ever been as anxious for the preseason as I am this year. I guess that's what an improbable division title will do to...
Week two of Miami Dolphins training camp began with some promotions and demotions - and some struggles from QB Chad Henne.
Don't look now - but we're suddenly just a week away from the Dolphins' first preseason game. Today begins week two of training camp. And what better way to begin the second week than with two...
With one week in the books for the Miami Dolphins, it's time to digest what has gone on in camp and look ahead towards week number two.
It was a tale of two practices on Thursday for the Dolphins.

More than 1,600 people in the metro-east have applied for a permit to carry a concealed weapon in Illinois.
As of Thursday, 615 people from St. Clair County and 748 people from Madison County had applied, according to the Illinois State Police.
Other counties in the region -- Bond, Clinton, Washington, Randolph and Monroe -- have each had fewer than 100 applicants so far. The total number of applications for those counties, along with St. Clair and Madison, was 1,687 as of Monday.
More than 23,000 Illinoisans have applied for a concealed-carry permit since the state began accepting applications. About 5,300 of those have come from the state's largest county, Cook.
The counties with the next-highest numbers of applications, as of early this week, are Will with 1,759, DuPage with 1,589 and Lake with 1,164 -- all counties in the Chicago area.
While Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, a critic of concealed-carry, has complained about not being able to keep up with the volume of applications, that hasn't been the case in the metro-east.
Madison County Sheriff Robert Hertz said his deputies have reviewed the names of about 200 applicants so far.
"I would have anticipated more than a couple hundred at this point," Hertz said. "I don't know if they're sitting on more that are coming my way, or if that's it, but I would have anticipated more people applying, and us getting deluged with these."
Hertz said he has asked his detective division to go over the names of applicants.
"It's been manageable," he said. "If it was 2,000, that would have been a bit more cumbersome. But right now, we're able to keep our heads above water on this."
On Wednesday, St. Clair County Sheriff Rick Watson said his department had not received a single applicant's name from ISP for review.
"We have not gotten anything from the state," Watson said. "I've got some people working on why we haven't."
ISP spokeswoman Monique Bond, however, said the state doesn't send names to local sheriffs and police chiefs. Instead, local police have access to a police-only ISP web portal containing the names.
"Each law enforcement agency logs into the portal to access their jurisdiction," Bond said. "Letters were sent to all law enforcement executives providing instructions, logins and passwords. Other counties are making objections, therefore they are following the instructions and using their password and login."
On Thursday, Watson said his department had learned how to access the web portal.
"The state never contacted us, and we finally figured out how to do this," Watson said. "And I've been talking with other departments around the county who didn't know anything about this portal."
Bond said in addition to sending letters, ISP has used an electronic police messaging system to inform local departments about how to object to concealed-carry applications.
Bond said an applicant's name is immediately entered into the portal.
Illinois State Police personnel handle the application process, but under the law, a local sheriff or police chief can object to a person's application. Local sheriffs and police have a 30-day window to make such an objection.
Watson on Thursday said his deputies had reviewed each of the 615 applicants from St. Clair County, and found none for which his department will file an objection.
Hertz said his department has made only one objection to an application, out of about 200 that his detectives have reviewed so far. Hertz said the applicant had a prior arrest.
"It was an arrest for a crimes-against-person deal, an assault situation. I'm not aware of the specifics, but I do know we've got a documented arrest on the individual, that we feel should be shared with the State Police before they make the final determination," Hertz said.
The purpose of the review by local police agencies is to ferret out applicants who might meet the state standards but have something in their backgrounds that could render their applications too risky to approve.
Watson said those would include people who are "kind of a loose screw" but have no criminal record.
"You've got to remember, there are certain things that aren't on a rap sheet. There are certain things we know about people that are not on paper," he said.
Hertz said he could see his department objecting to an applicant who displays "argumentative behavior" or "reflects something bizarre or concerning" to police.
"I've told my people that, when in doubt, forward the information to the State Police," Hertz said.
Hertz said a permit holder eventually will do something that draws the attention of the media and critics. "So we know we're under the microscope," he said.
Watson said some sheriffs also are concerned, however, about possible litigation from applicants who are turned down.
"If we need to object to it, we're going to object, whether we get litigated or not," Watson said. "This is a public safety thing."
Statewide, the Illinois State Police has been receiving about 1,000 applications per day for concealed-carry permits.
Bond said that while more than 16,000 applicants have cleared the first hurdle in the application process, the detailed checks are just beginning. She said before anyone receives final approval, the agency will have examined as many as a dozen criminal databases.
"The process is thorough, and the background checks are complete," she said.
Illinois State Police officials insist a full state review will assure that permits don't land in the hands of those who shouldn't have them. And with 90 days to do the job after the 30-day window closes for local law enforcement agencies to make their objections, the agency has far more time than its counterparts in some other states, including Pennsylvania, where law enforcement has 45 days to investigate, and Wisconsin, where the state has 21 days.

Reviews for Spanish Rice and Chicken
Sort By :
Tasty...I really like the way this is seasoned. I discovered that my celery salt had expired, so I substituted 1/3 tsp. celery seed and 2/3 tsp. salt, and that worked fine.
This is my 5 year old's favorite meal!
I'm a Dad who works from home and watches our 2 and 4 year old at least one day every week and was looking for a simple (vaguely) Spanish recipe with Chicken and Rice. This fit the bill to a tee. Easy to make (while managing the kids and keeping an eye on the inbox). Turned out great. My wife and I collaborated on a couple of toppers: Pepitas (pumpkin seeds), a few sprigs of cilantro and plain greek yogurt. I too would cut back on the salt in the broth etc next time. Not needed methinks.
Seems to be lacking something.....may try it again using salsa instead of tomatoes. Overall - not impressed.
This recipe was okay. Everyone ate it but nothing special. Had leftovers and had to throw out. No one asked for seconds. Do not understand how this could be award winning.

This route starts off the ledge system to the right of Hot Knife (5.10a). Take care getting to the ledge - that can be a climb in itself. This route is short but fun and has two bolts; getting a foot into the obvious pocket is the challenge.

SAN JOSE, Calif. — I zipped up the flack jacket, put on an Army helmet and snapped a pair of goggles over my eyes.
Suddenly I was crouching with a squad of infantrymen on a dusty street in a village somewhere in Afghanistan.

If this were football, and I was Mike Florio, I would make this into its own story. Are the Warriors Rebelling Against Their Coach? But, more than likely, that's not what's in play, here. Still, Fanhouse's Matt Steinmetz relayed the following incongruous statements from the Golden State gathering at media day.
And again:
But wait... that's not wha...
Is this a story? I say no. Monta Ellis has been gone for the past four months, and it's unlikely he knew of Nellie's plan to pair the two diminutive dynamos together in the backcourt. After all, each one of 'em is like 5'4 relative to their NBA peers. Monta's just thinking like a basketball player: obviously you're not going play two guys at the same time who have the exact same weaknesses. Only a crazy person would consider playing them together.
Ah... but that's where Don Nelson comes in. If you think it can't be done on a basketball court, Don Nelson will show you otherwise. Hell, he might even play Andres Biedrins at point guard and put Ellis and Steph Curry at the forward spots. And you know what? He'd probably make it (sorta) work, and win about 38 games like that. Because Don Nelson is the Most Interesting Coach in the World.

MEMPHIS (AP) - Federal prosecutors in Memphis have announced that 10 more people have been indicted in a scheme to hire others to take teacher certification tests in Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi.
The additional defendants announced Wednesday stem from a 45-count indictment returned by a grand jury in July that charged Clarence Mumford Sr. of Memphis with fraud and identity theft. He is accused of being the ringleader of a group of individuals who were paid to take teacher certification examinations on behalf of aspiring teachers dating back to 1995.
A total of 13 people face charges in the case. John Bowen of Memphis pleaded guilty earlier this month to charges related to the scheme. He was caught at Arkansas State University taking two tests under two different names on the same day.

CATEGORIES Comedy, Documentary, Drama, Foreign Language, Independent, New on DVD, Cinematical Indie, DVDs, CinematicalHave you recovered from your holiday eating binge? Are you ready for some pie? Reviewing Waitress at Sundance earlier this year, Cinematical's James Rocchi described it as "a light, breezy romantic comedy with a crackerjack cast and a certain degree of faux-Southern charm that never descends to cornpone mawkishness, and also has a whip-smart comedic sensibility in every scene." The late Adrienne Shelly wrote, directed, and co-stars with Keri Russell, Nathan Fillion and Andy Griffith. The DVD includes several featurettes and an audio commentary with Russell and producer Michael Roiff.
The Namesake very much impressed our own Kim Voynar, who called it "a deeply felt look at the ties of family and birthplace, the loneliness of living far from your home, and the connections that hold everything together, sometimes in ways we don't appreciate until much later." Mira Nair directed; the film stars Irfan Khan, Tabu, Kal Penn and Sahira Nair. The DVD features an audio commentary by director Nair and several featurettes, plus deleted scenes.
Critics gave high marks (83% positive, per Rotten Tomatoes) to documentary Manufactured Landscapes. It's said to be an "investigation of photographer Edward Burtynsky's legacy, with its aesthetic studies of industrial landscapes. ... It uses the topic of Burtynsky as a springboard." Jennifer Baichwal directed. The DVD includes additional scenes, a stills gallery and a discussion with Baichwal and Burtynsky.
We can never get too many rebellious child prodigy dramas, can we? Vitus fairly well divided critics: 34 positive and 21 negative, according to Rotten Tomatoes. The veteran and versatile Bruno Ganz is the most recognizable name in the cast. The DVD features an interview with Ganz, a "making of" feature and an audio commentary by director Fredi M. Murer.

- Martin Brodeur (44-27-6, 2.17 GAA, .920 SV%, 4 SO) Simply put, Brodeur is the best in the business. The Devils looked poised for a fall, but Marty still has to be the first goalie off the board. Having said that, there was no way I was going to draft him this season. I think there is better value further down the list.
- Henrik Lundqvist (37-24-10, 2.23 GAA, .912 SV%, 10 SO) King Henrik is the first guy on this list I really wanted to draft (but was unable both times). There is talk of a knee problem that has lingered from last spring, but for my money he is still the best goalie to have heading into this season.
- Evgeni Nabokov (46-21-8, 2.14 GAA, .910 SV%, 6 SO) All you need to know about Nabokov is that he is going to play around 70 games for a team that is sound defensively and should be one of the top teams in the West. That's enough to secure the third slot on this list.
- Marc-Andre Fleury (19-10-2, 2.33 GAA, .921 SV%, 4 SO) I wanted to put MAF third on this list, but there are still question marks about his consistency and the Penguins are missing arguably their two best defensemen for an extended period of time. The Flower could still prove to be a top two fantasy netminder this year. If he's still there in the third round (he likely won't be though) draft him.
- Roberto Luongo (35-29-9, 2.38 GAA, .917 SV%, 6 SO) I think the Canucks are going to struggle this season, but Luongo is too good to put any lower on this list. Put him on a better team and it's Vezina city for Bobby Lou.
- J.S. Giguere (35-17-6, 2.12 GAA, .922 SV%, 4 SO) I think the Ducks are going to look a lot more like the team that won the Cup two seasons ago that last season's version. That is good news for a guy who quietly put up career-best numbers last season. He should not last past the fourth round in any draft.
- Marty Turco (32-21-6, 2.31 GAA, .909 SV%, 3 SO) The Stars are my team to come out of the West this season and I do think they will win a very competitive Pacific Division. That will equate to great numbers for the oft underrated Turco. Do not hesitate to pick up Turco if you get the chance.
- Chris Osgood (27-9-4, 2.09 GAA, .914 SV%, 4 SO) I do not think highly of Osgood and never have, but he is still the clear cut number one goalie for the consensus best team in the NHL. That means, as much as I would like to, I can't drop him any lower on this list. And for the record, I did take Osgood in one of my drafts.
- Carey Price (24-12-3, 2.56 GAA, .920 SV%, 3 SO) All the people who get paid to know their stuff think Montreal is going to walk all over the Eastern Conference this season. I do not necessarily agree with them, but they will still be a good team and Price should put up good numbers. You could do a lot worse than Price for your number two goalie, but I do not think I would feel comfortable with him as my number one.
- Pascal Leclaire (24-17-6, 2.25 GAA, .919 SV%, 9 SO) Like Luongo, Leclaire's team is not much to write home about, but Pascal is too good to keep off of this list. He will stuggle a bit in the win column (and there are minor health concerns), but all the other numbers will more than make up for it. I drafted Leclaire in my roto league last night and I could not be happier to have him on my team again this season.

Renewable Growth Comes Off the Grid
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- We usually think of solar or wind power as feeding into the electrical grid, comparing the costs, and considering subsidies aimed at equalizing them.
But the biggest opportunities in the near term may lie off the grid, where there is no competition.
In the past I thought of this in terms of small solar mats charging cellphones in Africa, as BuildAfrica explains, bringing millions into the world economy. But it turns out there are unexpected markets for larger projects.
Miners working in remote regions have few alternatives to renewable power. Clean Technica reported in September that miners like to put solar systems into remote locations so the mining companies can own their own power systems.We're not just talking about solar power, either. Rio Tinto (RIO) has erected four large windmills near its Diavik diamond mine in the Arctic, figuring that if the $30 million project just reduces expensive diesel deliveries the expense is worthwhile. Louise Downing wrote about the project for Bloomberg adding that Barrick Gold (ABX) is also cutting its diesel costs 20% by erecting wind turbines near its facilities in Argentina. This trend within the industry isn't being pushed by regulators. It works on the bottom line. Just as important, systems that work in the -40 degree cold of the Arctic or at the 13,000 foot level of the Andes are rugged enough for all locations. They prove the concept of scaled renewable power systems that are safe and increasingly cost-effective. The off-grid market is helping start-up Altaeros Energy of Boston put its flying turbines into Alaska. As the Alaska Dispatch reports, these turbines, mounted inside wheel-shaped balloons, can go up to 1,000 feet up, where the winds are fastest, and supplement a village's power for less than fossil-fuel alternatives. The strangest use of renewable power has to be in the oil patch itself. Progress Solar Solutions has been pitching drillers for years on its solar-powered light systems that let rigs work through the night, and is now adding wind to the mix. Critics are going to be quick to ask, what happens when the sun goes down or the winds don't blow? Hybrid energy solutions like those of Planetary Power are becoming a standard. These combine a solar or wind installation with back-up diesel power. It's no longer about replacing diesel, but when you're in a remote location supplementing diesel can be highly profitable.

Last season the Bismarck Blizzard worked their way through the State tournament very quietly until the championship game.
They dominated West Fargo in the state title game.
While some teams would sit back-- the Blizzard are working even harder for back to back championships.
The 4 to nothing victory in the State championship over top seeded West Fargo gave the Blizzard a big taste of success.
That has them wanting more this season.
(ANNIE CASHMAN) "What happened to us last year was a blessing that they've got a little taste of success and they said that was a ton of fun let's go do that again instead of, ahh we won let's just pack it in."
The team is even more committed this year-- doing off ice workouts at Health Ways twice a week as well as going to a shooting facility.
"They Work as hard as any group I've ever coached."
And that work is paying off.
The Blizzard are 9 and 1 so far-- 7 and 0 in games against teams in North Dakota.
(KYLIE YINEMAN) "We've done really good this year so far we set a goal for winning 9 out of our 10 games and we did that. We finished our goal at the Blaine tournament this year and we are really happy with that."
(KENNEDY BLAIR) "We started off this season like way stronger than last season, like we came in I guess we came in as a team more I guess."
The Blizzard success starts between the pipes with Senior Erin Clayburgh and Sophomore standout Kennedy Blair.
"We have two of the top five goaltenders in the state."
They are the 2nd and 3rd ranked goalies in the state-- Both averaging a save percentage above 90 percent.
It's a tandem that is working well for the Blizzard.
"Erin's older than me. I look up to her as an older sister I guess. We each play games and like when she needs help working on stuff I help her, when I need help she helps me"
"We're very lucky in the fact that we have a senior goalie who's a leader. She leads in the locker room and she takes a lot of the pressure of being a goaltender off Kennedy that way."
That paired with a team that seemingly scores at will "We are just more complete as a team" makes them a contender once again for a state title.
"I think the sky's the limit."

Fighting Aflatoxin With Beneficial Fungal Strain
While several species of Aspergillus fungi produce aflatoxins - some species are actually considered beneficial. In fact - a strain dubbed K49 is now being recruited by USDA scientists to battle the harmful species and prevent them from contaminating host crops like corn with the highly toxic carcinogen. Eacy year - aflatoxin causes an estimated 200-million dollars in U.S. losses alone. But the USDA scientists - in collaboration with scientists in Italy - have devised a new method of applying K49 as a frontline defense against aflatoxin contamination in corn. K49 cannot produce aflatoxin - but it can exclude its aflatoxin-producing cousins from the ecological niches and resources they need to survive. Exploiting this rivalry - according to USDA's Agricultural Research Service - offers an effective way to diminish aflatoxin levels in soil and in corn kernels.
Scientists encapsulated K49 in bioplastic granules. They say these bioplastic granules improve the beneficial mold's storage life and viability once applied. In tests - applications of the bioplastic-coated K49 reduced aflatoxin levels by 65 to 97-percent. USDA's scientist says this technology may also prove useful in delivering other beneficial fungi used to safeguard crops from disease.

Pink ribbons show April solidarity (From Salisbury Journal)

Pink ribbons show April solidarity
5:04pm Thursday 4th October 2012 in National News © Press Association 2014
Pink ribbons are appearing on homes across Machynlleth in a heartfelt show of solidarity for missing April Jones.
Residents in the Mid Wales market town responded quickly to an appeal from the five-year-old's mother to "wear a pink ribbon for April".
Coral Jones broke down on Wednesday as she made a heart-wrenching appeal for any information which could help locate her daughter.
The urgency of her plea was driven home as it was revealed that April suffers from cerebral palsy and is in need of medication.
On Thursday Mrs Jones called on the public to wear pink, April's favourite colour, as a material sign that nobody has given up hope.
Among the pink ribbons which quickly appeared across Machynlleth was one on the gate of April's home on the Bryn-y-Gog estate.
April's godmother, Mair Raftree, triggered the show of solidarity when she revealed the family's wishes.
"What Coral has asked everybody to do is, if they can, either put one on front doors, gates, or to wear a pink ribbon, because, obviously, that's a favourite colour for April," she said, in a TV appeal.
Residents were quick to respond and pink ribbons began appearing on door knockers and windows across the town.
Cathy Jenkins, who was shopping in the town, said: "People are willing to do whatever is necessary. Everybody is so anguished at not being able to do anything. We are all waiting for news and being asked to do even this small thing comes as something of a relief."

Question regarding getting a dresser repaired.
I love this dresser/chest that I have in my guest room. I bought it at Marshalls. I should have pulled each drawer out before I bought it but I didn't. Some drawers needs to have something done to them. Some of the drawers do not fit very well or are very hard to use. So I can't use all the drawers for storage like I wanted to.
So my questions. Where could I take this dresser to, to get repaired. What kind of business would I look for? A cabinet maker??? Or don't they do repairs.
Please help, I would love these drawers to open and close smoothly
Here's the dresser once again.This message has been edited. Last edited by: lilsophie,
Lil Sophie, try interchanging the drawers. Sometimes they are put in the wrong slot. Just a fraction of an inch can make a difference. Also...they rubbing the glides with bar soap. Good luck...
Cara I will try switching the drawers. But the drawers and the dresser do not have good glides (dont really have glides. The dresser just has a opening cut in it inside where the drawer goes. And the drawer itself has a wood piece attached that fits it the long slot. Hope you understand what I'm trying to explain. lol
Can all this be fixed?
I understand what you are saying. After switching the drawers (or trying to) rub the glides on the drawers AND the long slot with soap or paraffin wax. That should help. You may have to wax/soap it quite often, depending how much you use the drawers. To really fix this permanently, I would ask a cabinet maker. He may advise you to have metal drawer glides put on your drawers...It is fixable, I am sure.This message has been edited. Last edited by: May,
love life
Thank you May, I will give it a try.
Lil Sophie, Yes I understand what you mean as I have a bench with drawers made like that. Dh rubbed the recessed piece and the male section with soap and pulled it in and out several times and it has worked perfectly since then. He said to tell you that if it is wood that you may want to sand it a little. I don't know what else a furniture repairman would do other than that. Sometimes, if you live where it is humid that makes the wood swell. Dh assure me this will fix it. Let me know.
Thanks Cara I will give that all a try.
I was going to write the same thing as Cara Rose, try that first. I have sanded some drawers with luck as well... soap works wonders, helps it to glide!
The drawer unit might have been exposed to humidity in storage or transport, and changing the drawers around is what I do first. I also take a marker or pencil and mark the bottom of each drawer where they go, DH has a way of mixing them up when taking out and putting back, this way I KNOW where they go to fit the best!
Good luck!

Vazquez seeks first win at Turner Field
Atlanta (19-19) vs. Colorado (15-23), 7 p.m. ET
ATLANTA -- On Friday night, the Braves were three outs away from giving Javier Vazquez his first win at Turner Field this season. Ahead by a run in the ninth, all they needed were three outs from closer Mike Gonzalez and Vazquez could erase that unsightly zero from his home wins column.That's when Gonzalez hung a slider to D-backs shortstop Stephen Drew, who launched a game-tying solo home run to keep Vazquez from recording a home victory. Although the Braves ended up winning that game in the bottom of the ninth, Vazquez enters Wednesday's start against the Rockies winless at home in his short stint with Atlanta. "It's not frustrating," Vazquez said. "Every time, you try to do your best out there. Sure, I would love to win at home. Some things I can't control. All I can control is doing my job out there every time." In that game against Arizona, Vazquez certainly pitched well enough to win. He scattered five hits over seven innings, struck out 10 and allowed just two earned runs, both of which came in the first inning. However, in his other three home starts he has given up 14 earned runs in 20 2/3 innings. Compared with his 2.10 road ERA, his home numbers are somewhat inexplicable. "I don't think about if I'm at home or on the road," Vazquez said. "My job is to go out there and try to shut the opposition down. Obviously, I would love to do it at home the same as on the road, but sometimes it doesn't work that way." Part of Vazquez's inability to win at home so far can be attributed to hard luck, but part of it can also be explained by his tendency to be victimized by one bad inning. In his April 30 start against the Cardinals at Turner Field, Vazquez went eight innings and threw one of his best games of the year. But one excruciating inning prevented him from earning the win. The Cardinals scored four runs in the fifth, mostly by dropping singles just over the head of shortstop Yunel Escobar. "I've had a few tough games here at home," Vazquez said. "I've been throwing the ball well. A big inning has hurt me. Other than that, I've been throwing the ball OK." Vazquez's home struggles are one of the various symptoms of a larger problem plaguing the Braves. They just can't seem to duplicate the intensity that helped them win six of eight on their recent road trip when they play at Turner Field. Tuesday night's 8-1 thrashing of the Rockies came after manager Bobby Cox made several changes to the batting order in hopes of manufacturing some offense. It worked, and the Braves hope it's a sign they'll have a more successful stay at Turner Field before they hit the road again. "We liked the matchups coming into this homestand," said Braves right fielder Jeff Francoeur. "It seems like we play with a lot more intensity on the road than when we're at home. I don't know why that is, but we need to find some way to kind of change that and play better ball." Pitching matchup
ATL: RHP Javier Vazquez (3-3, 3.71 ERA)
Vazquez completed his second straight impressive outing in Friday night's 4-3 win over the D-backs, but ended up with a no-decision when Arizona tied the game in the ninth inning. He allowed just two earned runs and struck out 10 in seven innings. The strikeout total gave Vazquez 39 career games with double-digit strikeouts. This will be Vazquez's first start against the Rockies since June 8, 2004, when he pitched for the Yankees. COL: LHP Jorge De La Rosa (0-3, 3.16 ERA)
De La Rosa has sizzled, striking out 22 in 15 innings over his past two starts. The only drawback was that the Rockies didn't hit well behind him. They lost, 3-1, at Coors against the Marlins on May 9, when he fanned a career-high 12 in eight innings. He struck out 10 in seven innings against the Pirates on Friday but left down a run, before the Rockies came back for a 3-1 win. De La Rosa has had consistently strong fastball command throughout the season. Against the Pirates, he had supreme confidence in his changeup. He has never pitched at Turner Field, and the only time he faced the Braves, he struck out three and walked two in two scoreless innings. Tidbits
Jorge Campillo will pitch Thursday for Triple-A Gwinnett. He will be used out of the bullpen, and it is unclear how many batters he will face. ... Tom Glavine will most likely start Saturday for Gwinnett, although no official announcement has been made by the team. ... With Tuesday's quality start, Jair Jurrjens has recorded quality starts in six of his past seven outings. ... Since returning from the disabled list, Brian McCann has hit safely in nine of 10 games. ... Kelly Johnson snapped an 0-for-8 hitless streak with his three-hit performance on Tuesday. ... Casey Kotchman went 3-for-5 on Tuesday, which was his team-leading 11th multi-hit game. Tickets

Nov 21 2012: the matrix,part one. As a metaphour for reality,fate, self actualization,corperate vampirism,it spoke to me on so many levels,it is still my all time favourite. the next one is a french african film called "kiriko" its about a newborn child that saves a village by finding out why and what created his enemy,rather then vigelante style justice of the west. It is a cartoon for children and the child works hard for his village,has his birth in the film,loves his barebreasted mother without sexualizing her breasts and loves his elderly grandfather without downgrading old age to a joke. MY last favourite movie is also a cartoon series called "Black Panther" a fictional account of an African country who successfully resists european invasion. The female characters are fierce,the political perspective is about how people experience government. All these movies allowed me a millisecond of opportunity to see my life objectively, so now I try even harder to be a good person,when I realized there were better ways to think...even in movies or cartoons.

I'm just saying the kid has a TON of potential, but he won't be able to reach it if he doesn't fix his catching problem.
As far as the 2010 regular season it started and finished 3-3. And if I remember correctly Finley was playing great before getting hurt while Jennings was playing worse and at times throwing a hissy fit at times during the middle of the game.
If I remember correctly one that got him a lot of attention on this board was a DEEP pass that went off his hands and into the hands of a defender, but Jennings was too busy complaining to notice the defender caught it and returned it a good ways.
So it wasn't just Finley but also Jennings playing harder complaining less, and I believe Nelson finally broke out at the end of the season.
So it's not all just Quarless. But again, Quarless has major potential and I'm very much hoping he breaks out like we know he can (which is why I listed him as one of my break out guys).

Morgan Burnett - He just received his new contract, now he's going to go out there and earn it. As my "breakout player," I am hoping he makes the same Year 4 jump that Nick Collins made. With the added pass rush, I could see Burnett becoming our next turnover machine at Safety. He showed last year that he has no problem being around the ball, with over 100 tackles. IMO, this is the year where more of those tackles turn into forced fumbles and he finds his hands on more interceptions. As the new "leader" of the secondary, he has added responsibility in making sure everyone is where they have to be. I'm hoping he is able to step up and become one of our better defensive players. He has the ability to.

Brian Bulaga - Technically he was a breakout player in 2011 but with some struggles last year and a position change I think he can have a "breakout" year as a LT.

Andrew Datko: Training Camp Dark Horse or Off the Team?
Here's a quick rundown of the Packers offensive line situation. In for sure: Bryan Bulaga, Josh Sitton, Evan Dietrich-Smith, T.J. Lang, Marshall Newhouse. Probably in: David Bakhtiari, Don Barclay, Sherrod (if healthy). Fighting for their lives: Datko, Greg Van Roten, Lane Taylor, whoever the hell they list as a backup center.
There are already eight offensive lineman with a head start on Datko. Another one (Van Roten) is also probably ahead of him.
The odds for Datko don't look very good, but it's hard to count out a guy who was so promising before getting hurt.
Dude's got a shot.

I think the breakout "Players" for 2013 will be the offensive line and the fact that T Bryan Bulaga, guard Josh Sitton will be moving to the left side, and guard T.J. Lang, tackle Marshall Newhouse will be moving to the right side. The Packers have the best QB in the game, and really need to protect him better than last year.
I also think by Mike McCarthy drafting two running backs he is going to make a genuine effort to have a running attack established early and often. I feel we will see a much more balanced attack this season on Offense 60% passing and 40% running. Eddie Lacy is my pick for Offensive ROY and the next 1000 yard back for GB.
So if you meet me Have some courtesy, Have some sympathy, and some taste
