Adrian Gonzalez is having a fantastic season. Aside from a decently powerless first month (powerless being a relative term as his slash for April was a respectable: .314/.379./457), Gonzalez has been steadily brilliant. He is having a fine season. There is no disputing this fact. Because of his gaudy RBI totals and power profile, he will (if Jose Bautista cools) be in the MVP conversation come August and September. Much of this good fortune is due to a cavalcade of OBP machines acting as a metaphorical cushion around his middle of the order ambient presence.
Peter Abraham, courtesy of the Boston Globe, elaborates:
"I've been able to hit a couple of solo home runs here or there. But it's all about the guys ahead of me,'' Gonzalez said. "RBIs are all about the guys ahead of you. Those guys are doing an incredible job of giving me multiple opportunities every day.''
Gonzalez does have the ability to take advantage of the situation.
"He has a knack. He understands what he's got to do. Whether it's shorten up or try and hit the ball out of the ballpark,'' manager Terry Francona said.
Gonzalez explained how having runners on base helps make him a better hitter.
As far as Gonzalez is concerned, the credit belongs to Jacoby Ellsbury and Dustin Pedroia, the hitters ahead of him in the game's most potent lineup."They're going to pitch the way they're going to pitch. But when you have people on base, the pitcher doesn't want to walk you and put you on base,'' he said.
The problem with such assertions, is that the main variable in place is nebulous and faulty. The idea of batting average with runners in scoring position is a wildly misleading stat. It is a fruit that is commonly mistaken for a root. It is, as Adrian Gonzalez is somewhat aware, a result of the players hitting before and after. It is also mostly the result of luck (talent and luck). Adrian Gonzalez is a good hitter. His isolated power is at .240 (a tick over his career, but not a high). He also hits the ball extremely hard, which is part of the reason why he has been able to sustain a BABIP above league average for most of his career, but this year it is extremely high: unsustainably high. He is an excellent ball player, a fantastic fielder, and a seemingly good guy, but, odds are, he's just going to get (relatively) worse as the year rolls on.

The room was large and clean, and the view of ocean was nice.
The bed has bedbugs. My companion was badly bitten. The hotel is about 20 miles from downtown Hilo. There is no restaurants or grocery store in the vicinity. The arrangement of facilities in the room suggests that the owner has no idea what would be practical for travelers. For example, the TV faces a room divider. There is no place to sit and watch TV. The tub has no water spigot so that you cannot take a bath, wash your feet or your gear. The bed seems to be designed for 7' tall person to get into. The room has a very small and high table, with accompanying high chairs. The furnishings are very spartan. We had to put most things on the floor. We arrived at the hotel late in the evening. The manager left the keys in the unlocked room for us. During our 2-nights stay we never saw a single person who works for the hotel.

We pulled into Hilltop Legacy and my wife said 'I'm not staying here' the phone check in was weird. I finally convinced her to come out of the car and take a look. The soiled stairway carpet, the low quality beds and the filthy toaster oven really substantiated her first impression. Mr. Lee was nice and asked us to look at your property an North Belt road. The address was not available on GPS, but after quite a journey we located the property. Again, no one around, no phone service. This was the second property that was misrepresented by photos on it's website. I feel it was my fault thinking I found a great deal without doing further research. I think it would be fair if you charged me for the first night, but refund my second night. If you need my credit card number for my refund, please call me at -----. Sincerely, Charles Bailey.

Who says the preseason NBA/Euroleague games don't matter? Certainly not BallinEurope readers, who are using the round of exhibition matches to compare relative levels of talent and play.
Well, more grist for the debate mill was produced last night as FC Barcelona surprised the Dallas Mavericks at the 'Palau, 99-85. The occasion marked the third such triumph for the Spanish side in recent years and chases up the 2010 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Perhaps most significantly locally, even those a bit begrudging about European basketball may admit that this was a big win for Barça.

Hi Body of Christ,
This is Stephen the CrossWalker. I apologize I have not kept my blog up here as often as I should. I hope you have been reading these entries though and it has strengthened your faith.
I wanted to tell you about my latest journey in Walking the Cross Mission W.H.A.T. You can also see some videos I shot on the way by going to youtube and putting my name in the search engine.Usually "Stephen Hope Walking Hope Across Texas" will bring up most of the videos.
It seems whenever I have mentioned demons in a writing, it gets twice as many hits.
That is not the reason I do it though. I do it because we are in spiritual warfare and battling these unseen forces are a part of that warfare.
If you really want the core of your hometown, or county to change, I urge those of you who have a calling or are already prayer warriors to step out in your locality and get even more engaged in calling on the name of our Lord and using the authority. The name of Jesus is the most powerful name in this world, in fact scripture tells us that EVERY knee will bow and EVERY tongue confess that Jesus is Lord. This has not happened in its entirety yet, but the demons know Him and shudder at his name.
When we go walking in our community for the specific purpose of praying for our community, we are embarking on a mission assignment from God. Have you ever read how many scriptures tell us to walk with God, walk in truth, walk in righteousness. Walk in love, and many more things. Do you think walking is just a metaphor? God does a work in us and for us and uses our walking to teach us.
Flashback, Moses walked with God, Abraham walked with God, Israelites walked with God but mostly in disobedience. David walked with God, Elijah and Elisha walked with God, Then God the Father sent his Son to Walk among His people, Do you see the pattern here?
I will tell you what God has done in my life as I walk with Him. I do mean literally walk too. Since May of 2008, I have walked over 2000 miles with a large wooden Cross on my shoulders. I have walked probably another 500 miles without the Cross but with my spiritual armor on as I prayed these things the Holy Spirit was showing me. Here are a few of them. Ask the Lord to remit the sins of the land you are walking on. You know what, I just want to pray right now and you will see what I mean. The Lord will guide you in your prayers if you have been abiding in Him.
Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus of Nazareth i entreat you with my prayers, thank you for saving me and filling me with your Holy Spirit by the shed blood of Christ who died in my place. His blood purifies me of all sin, I stand before you asking you put my spiritual armor on and make me a vessel pure to speak the gospel to your creation.
In Jesus mighty name, i ask for remission of sins for the land which has had bloodshed, travesties, disease, and outright frauds committed upon it. Please cleanse the land by your blood. There are demonic forces trying to command this land by instilling fear and dishonesty, and shedding of innocent blood. I speak by the authority of the name of Jesus and command those spirits which are not of you be bound and cast into outer darkness.
I thank you for revealing those who perpetrate wickedness and open doors for demons to come in, to be changed by being cleansed by his blood. If they will not change Lord, please sent your servants the authority of the badge to incarcerate the guilty until they repent.Thank you for moving people to call on you and worship you with Spirit and Truth. Thank you for hearing the prayers of those who have humbled themselves and coming with your Spirit to heal the land. May this land produce good things and be well taken care of in the Lord Jesus name. Amen!
Well my friend, pray something like that as you walk with God through your land that needs His healing. There have been several reports I have heard or read about with in a short time of those walking prayers, Major Drug Busts have taken place, Drought has been broken with massive amounts of rain. A peace that passes all understanding comes to the area, The grades of children in school come up on the average and not so many bully tactics are perpetuated. Lawmakers and officials are brought to justice when they have been doing underhanded schemes. Corruption in politics is revealed and someone in your locality will meet you and be happy and even supportive of the work you are doing with your prayers. Abide in the Lord, He is the Bread of Life! God bless you!

Montpelier, Vermont - July 21, 2008
Gov. Jim Douglas says he will not call a special legislative session to look at sex offender laws after legislative leaders refused to agree to his package of laws.
Douglas, R-Vermont, met Monday afternoon with Gaye Symington, D-Vt. House Speaker, Sen. Peter Shumlin, D-President Pro Tem, and a handful of legislative leaders in a closed-door session.
Douglas wants lawmakers to agree to a three-part package of civil confinement, an enhanced sex offender registry, and Jessica's law, before he calls a special session. But lawmakers say there needs to be a broader look into what went wrong in the case of Brooke Bennett's alleged abductor before they rush into passing new laws.
"We are torn between the emotion of the moment, our outrage with what happened to Brooke Bennett, and the reality that good legislation isn't written from emotion, it's written from a thoughtful deliberative process," said Shumlin.
"These three ideas are quite comprehensive and they don't need any more time or hearings or process because they've been talked about at great length over the last couple of years. Senator Sears acknowledged that his committee has had lots of testimony on these important topics," said Douglas.
The Senate Judiciary Committee has a series of hearings on this issue scheduled throughout the next month, but it appears no new legislation will be considered until a new legislature convenes next January.

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - In some ways, you might call the Dangeleqiczs a garage band, because John and Jill and their two teenagers have banded together in their Rancho Penasquitos garage.
"We were cleaning out the garage one day. We came across our huge album collection… they're just sitting there in the cabinets," John said.
So they decided to turn classic rock into functional art.
"These are album cover journals and notebooks that we started off with. The cool thing about these is the liner sleeves. If they have lyrics or pictures, we'll include that too," John said.
Next, they molded used vinyl into record bowls.
"You can stick anything in these record bowls, from napkins to keys," John said.
But then another thought occurred to the couple.
"Some of these have really cool pictures on the center labels. What if we display them on the wall?" John said. "It's a typical record. We just put a clock movement on there."
"We try to get the ones with the really cool centers, like a lot of The Beatles, we try to use the apple centers," Jill said.
"Often times people with the business, they'll send us one of their own vinyl records. We focus on rock and roll, but we do have other things that people really like," John said.
John and Jill started selling their wares at street fairs, but now have created their own website to accommodate the nationwide demand for their merchandise.
"It's really a feel-good type of business. When people see these things, they go, 'Oh, I remember that album, I remember that concert,'" John said.
Thanks to this local garage band, the music memories of our lives are no longer frozen in time, and we can continue to rock around the clock.

An Atlanta charity says thieves have targeted them twice in six weeks. The Georgia Parent Support Network says it is in danger of not being help to help children after crooks struck several of the group's air conditioning units. Sue Smith helps run the organization, which she says helps families who have children have mental illness. Workers help 50 to 100 families at a time with therapy, tutoring and college assistance. But the program is now in jeopardy after thieves stole copper and other parts of three new air conditioning units on Monday. Six weeks ago, thieves did the same thing.Smith said that the thefts cost around $8,000 each time."It's amazing for $100 worth of copper that it could have such a devastating effect," Smith said.The charity says that it doesn't have enough money to pay for repairs, and it says it needs help to lock down the units to prevent future thefts."I would think the cages would be enough. I would think the walls would be enough. I thought the camera would help but I don't know what to do next," Smith said. "Every dollar we don't have that we have to spend on anything else takes away from our ability to serve the children."Anyone willing to help to organization is asked to call 404-758-4500 ext. 101.
A fifth arrest has been made in connection with the murder of a 13-year-old in his own bedroom on Sunday.

Savings Strategies for Fashionistas: How to Create Spring Style on the Skinny
February 4, 2013 | Posted By: Jessica Turner | Categorized in: Shopping
Do you eat, sleep and breathe fashion? Does the word sale fill you with excitement and happiness? If so, you might be a shopaholic. Don't be ashamed of your infatuation with style. Despite monetary set backs that may have you feeling guilty for spending, you can learn the secret to maximizing savings, while filling your wardrobe with new, spring styles. This article will show you how to create a classic spring ensemble by utilizing money saving options online for $100 or less.
SalesOne of the first things a shopaholic should always be informed about are sales. Check your favorite store's websites to find out when they are having discounts on their merchandise. Seasonal and holiday sales are guaranteed, but you never know when a store may be clearing out items to make room for new lines. Use sales and clearance events to stock up on basics that never go out of style.
Denim is a wardrobe staple, so taking advantage of a Levi's up to 75% off sale is, without a doubt, worthwhile. Whether your wardrobe would benefit by an additional pair of Low Rise Demi Curve Skinny Jeans, a pair of Super Short Shorts or a Tailored Pencil Skirt, each can be purchased for only $29.90.
DealsStores will promote special deals for merchandise that they are trying to move. This may be a percentage off tanks/tops when you buy a skirt or a buy one get one 50% off deal for jeans. It's in your best interest to utilize these deals to stock up on items of high quality at a low price.
Express is currently offering several women's tops for under $20. The Chiffon Hi-Lo Hem Tank is a great Spring buy, because sheer fabrics and unusual cuts are on the spring 2013 style watch. This versatile tank can be dressed up with a pencil skirt or dressed down with some leggings, skinny jeans or shorts. There are two hues to choose from, including seafoam and ultimate purple.
Coupon CodesPromotional codes can help you save big on fashion items or at least get you free shipping. Many stores will send coupon codes in emails to their customers signed up on their mailing list. Liking them and sharing them on social media sites can also help you earn coupon codes. Here on Fatwallet we have most coupon codes available to you. Search by store or take a look at all coupons.
Stock up on accessories for your spring style at Pacsun. There BOGO50 coupon code allows you to get jewelry at a buy one get one at 50% off discount. Make out like a bandit and pick up a 3 pack of earrings for under $10 and a funky, art deco necklace for half price at just $5.00. These fresh, young styles will spruce up your wardrobe and keep your ensembles accessorized all season long.
Cash BackUtilize cash back options as much as possible. We offer a variety of cash back percentages on a variety of stores. Some days cash back percentages are doubled. To increase your cash back you can also use credit cards with cash back programs to pay for your purchases.
Take advantage of the 5.0% cash back offer for designer Steve Madden shoes. Save additional money on your new pair of shoes by checking out the shoe clearance items. Steve Madden's Intrude pump, for example, is a sexy shoe that can be purchased in bright green suede or pink patent leather to add a pop of spring color to your wardrobe for less than $35.
StackingThe ultimate savings for shopaholics is compound savings. Stack sales, deals, coupon codes and cash back to get the best possible deal on each and every purchase. This type of compound saving is made easy through our site, which provides shoppers with all money saving options for our represented retailers. It's a one-stop shop.
Grand Total = $94.98 (potentially $86.29 if signed up on all mailing lists)

The game between the local rivals will be the first home fixture that Witham have had since December 7 abd kicks-off at 7.45pm.
A waterlogged pitch has scuppered attempts to play recent games at the Village Glass Stadium, but the club have said that there is no standing water on the playing surface now and they are confident that the game will go ahead.
The meeting between Witham and the Jammers at Park Drive earlier this season ended in a 1-1 draw with Lewis Godbold on target for Town and Bradley Hunter replying for Maldon after the break.

i read the qur'an regularly and know that god created us to worship him. now in other verses he claim to be a devine intitty and don't need humans.
to me thinking about it won't make sense. why creat us? why live in a war with satan that we humans never created ? why put us in this sitution where a lot of people would suffer hell because of letting satan live tell judgement day trying to decieve us. just because he wouldn't bow to adam? why wouldn't god banished satan to hell instead of giving him a long life filled with deceiving innocente humans? why we(humans) suffer from a hard journey of life because adam ate from the tree? adam mistaken only ONCE yet god did not returned him to heaven(in his life time). now how is it fair to live this life(i mean earth instead of heaven) because the mistake of our father? as far as i know islam stressed that if one mistaken it is his own not all his friends or family?
i persude these questions to my teachers in school. yet , they seem to avoid a direct anwser. they keep saying(it's written in qur'an . so it's god wisdom not to explain that much or that humans can't understand these Q's) now how am i suppose to blieve when hearing these kind of answers

University of Texas men's athletics director DeLoss Dodds believes that Mack Brown can return the football program to BCS title contention. Dodds told The Daily Texan that he appreciates the stability that Brown has brought to Texas football, implicitly addressing Brown's job status in the process.
"I love stability. I love continuity," Dodds said in an interview with The Daily Texan. "If you have stability, you have continuity and you've got good people. It's a formula that works. I think we've got that. If somebody tells me we need to change, I say, 'Ok, but who should we hire? [Alabama head coach Nick] Saban? Well, Saban isn't going to come here.'"
Dodds added glowing remarks for Brown's work reviving North Carolina and noted that following Brown at Texas "will not be easy." He also said, speaking hypothetically, that if Texas were searching for a new football coach, he'd want to find the next Mack Brown.

Brown has won 150 games and a BCS title since taking the head coaching job at Texas in 1998, but he's come under increased scrutiny since the Longhorns finished just 5-7 in 2010. Brown's teams rebounded to earn bowl berths in 2011 and 2012 but finished those two years a combined 9-9 in Big 12 play, which isn't up to the elite standards Brown established earlier in his tenure.

I might have found a numbered lowboy. It has a full hard cab, snowblower, and a 60 finish mower. It was in an old swap and sell it guide. It has the real wide rear tires and the engine side covers. Hydrualic lift. I was wondering if there is anything that I should pay attention to or look for specifics.
I believe it to be a 154

Last thing to say on this topic for a bit ---part of this whole debate involves trends. Right now everyone loves the instant gratification of snap upload, watch as the comments and likes pour in. Who says this trend is the new tomorrow? Right now, everyone wants to share everything and everyone loves everything that everyone is sharing. But will that be the case in 2015, 2016, 2017...etc etc. this is whats happening now, but, what's happening now is a trend - maybe this trend will change. what happens when the likes stop for your duck face in the mirror photo? What happens when no one cares that you posted a pic of your dinner plate. What happens when instant upload is considered, "that's so 2013, gawd, no one does that anymore."

Embarkation at Port Everglades, Ft Lauderdale: went very easy. It took around 5 minutes from the time we entered the terminal until check-in, including going through security. As you entered the terminal, you were given a group number. We then had to wait around 30 minutes before we could board the ship, waiting for our group number to be called. When we boarded the ship, our room was ready for us. We were able to drop off our carry-on's and then proceed to go to lunch.
Food: Lots of selections for every diet whether you eat in the main dining room or the buffet. We especially liked the salad bar and fresh fruit in the buffet at lunchtime. In the Horizon Court buffet, if you wanted lemonade, you had to ask a waiter for some. There also was not any hot chocolate available. All of the food services closed down by midnight, except for room service. We had anytime dining and found we had very little wait time if you went before 6:30 PM and were willing to share a table with other passengers. On formal nights, there was a little more wait time. Also, the dress code is strictly adhered to on the formal nights. We found out that the minimum dress code allowed in the main dining rooms by men is a long sleeved shirt. A tie was not required. Even the invitation to the past passenger party stated formal attire, no short sleeves, as it was held on the second formal night.
Entertainment: Most of the shows on the ship lasted 30-40 minutes. The dancers were very good in the various show productions. The entertainment that was brought on board was better than the average cruise ship.
Cabin: Location was in midship which was perfect for going anywhere in the ship. Our cabin steward always had the room in satisfactory condition. Each evening, our bed was turned down, chocolates on bed, and the Princess Patter was received which listed all of the activities for the next day. Upon arrrival to cabin, and on last day of cruise, a luggage mat was placed on one end of bed for unpacking/packing.
Excursions: Half of the ports we did on our own. In the Panama Canal, if you want to get off of the ship, you must book one of the ship's excursion. The ship docked at the pier in Aruba, Cartagena, Colon, and Puerto Limon. In the Panama Canal and the Grand Cayman Island, tenders were provided to get to shore. Also, at each cruise terminal, before getting back on the ship, there were chilled damp towels and chilled water available.
Other Mentionables:
There was a port lecturer, Bill Fall, on board who gave a talk on every port. He was born and raised in Panama and gave a unique perspective to the Panama Canal. All of his talks were extremely informative as well as educational.
You could send an e-postcard free from the computers in the internet cafe to your family and friends. However, the message that you had written in the postcard did not show up when the recipient opened up the e-postcard, which we found out later after getting home.
Afternoon tea was nice in one of the main dining rooms. The waiters served hot tea, small sandwiches, cookies, petit fours, and scones.
Average age of passengers was 60-65. Some of the passengers were rude, jumping ahead of lines for elevators, etc. Overall the majority of the passengers were very pleasant.
On the last night of our trip we received a nice summary of our trip from Princess.
Disembarkation: was a little disorganized, as well as they were running behind schedule. A few days before departure, you are given a disembarkation questionnaire to complete and drop off at Guest Services. This determines what luggage tags you will be given and when you are going to get off of the ship. At least a day ahead of time, you received your luggage tags in your cabin. Depending upon your luggage tags, you were supposed to meet at a particular lounge at a particular time for disembarking. There were malfunctions in our waiting lounge for announcements. Once off of the ship, we collected our luggage in the cruise terminal, proceeded through customs, walked out of the terminal, and took a cab to the Ft. Lauderdale airport which dropped us off at our terminal. The cab fare was slightly less than $15 total.

CENTERVILLE – City officials want to see Centerville through your eyes.
As part of a planned redesign of the city's website, officials are asking residents to submit their photos of Centerville. The pictures will be used to highlight different departments and city amenities.
"We're trying to capture the different aspects of Centerville," said Centerville City Managerial Assistant Jacob Smith. "All the front and department pages will get their own rotating set."
Smith is hoping to gather 50 photos. Each page on the redesigned site will rotate through its own set of 10 photos. Ideally, the photos will be somehow connected to each of the departments, such as soccer games for Recreation or architecture for Community Development. Other pages, including those for the mayor and city council, could feature more general shots of the city.
"Some people take photos of trails, and some of elk," he said. "We want to see all of them, and hopefully go through all the different seasons."
There are several photos on the city's website at centervilleut.com, but the original files were lost. The new pictures will replenish the city's archives and will also be used in the quarterly newsletter that gets mailed to all Centerville residents.
"As it is now, we have to go out and take fresh pictures every time," Smith said. "There are Kodak moments happening all the time, and we want to be able to capture those."
The request for pictures has been posted on the website since November, but so far no one has submitted any photos.
"We'll keep the request open until we get all the pictures we need," he said. "We'll probably give it a year. Hopefully, people have pictures they've already taken and can send in."
Pictures should be in a wide format and no bigger than 5MB in size. To submit a photo for use by the city, e-mail it to firstname.lastname@example.com. Be sure to nclude your name so the picture can be credited properly.

Russell Maliphant World Premiere: Still Current
18 September 2013
UK Tour from Thursday 26th September to Saturday 26th October 2013
"Dancing bodies rarely look more beautiful than in the work of Russell Maliphant"
The Guardian
Still Current is a new evening of solos, duets and a trio by internationally acclaimed
choreographer and Sadler's Wells Associate Artist Russell Maliphant. Inspired by his
ensemble dancers; Thomasin Gülgeç, Dickson Mbi, Carys Staton, Maliphant once again
works in collaboration with his long-standing collaborator, lighting designer and Sadler's
Wells Associate Artist Michael Hulls. Still Current also sees Russell Maliphant return
to the UK stage, in a role he shares with guest dancer Adam Kirkham from the
The evening presents a diverse physical language that integrates qualities and
vocabulary from ballet, contemporary dance and martial arts that celebrates the technical
strength of Maliphant's world class company.
The evening's performance includes three new works including a duet created for Carys
Staton, drawing on her strength and versatility as a dancer. Staton is paired with Russell
Maliphant who shares the role with Adam Kirkham. Still Current also features a new
solo choreographed on Dickson Mbi who recently stunned audiences with his strength
and exceptional popping style in The Rodin Project, the dance film Erebus and the
Lucozade Revive commercial. Using contemporary dance, ballet and other styles
including popping, along with Maliphant's choreographic language of flow, form and
dynamics this new solo showcases Mbi's virtuosic language and performance character.
Still Current also features a new work for three male dancers drawing on, amongst other
things, the styles of Brazilian martial art of capoeira.
Along with these three new works Still Current features the critically acclaimed
Afterlight (Part One), winner of the Critics Circle National Dance Award for Best
Choreography. Performed by Thomasin Gülgeç, this solo showcases his fluid agility
and grace. He is joined by Carys Staton whose energetic elegance and delicate strength
are showcased in the new creations and in her performance of the modern-classic solo
Still Current includes an eclectic mix of music with compositions from Éric Satie and
long time collaborator Andy Cowton and a newly commissioned score by Armand
Amar, well known for his film scores. Costume designs are by Stevie Stewart, formerly
one half of the influential design label BodyMap, recently she has worked with Michael
Clark and Rambert as well as designing costumes for Kylie Minogue and Britney Spears,
and animation by Jan Urbanowski who created the opening credits for Danny Boyle's
2013 film Trance.

It seems that Shafer wants to try and make this fight for May 18th in DC with Brook vs Alexander on the undercard. I like this matchup but ive been reading alot of hate on other sites. You know the usual GBP is trying to protect Garcia. But Garcia vs Judah is scheduled for April 27th so I dont see why this fight cant be made. Matthysse has to fight somebody right? At least he gets a title shot. Personally I dont care where Dannys ranked I think Peterson is the best at 140. A win over Peterson could put Matthysse in line for a Mayweather shot. What do you guys think?

I like this fight. two top guys going at it. i'm slightly favoring Peterson here. If he can get past a rough patch in the first 2 rounds(like in all of his fights lately), he can box and beat Matthysse.
Matthysse ins nothing special. He's a guy that's really big and strong for the weightclass. I think he came in at 160 on fightnight last time out. How long can he maintain at 140? The drains will have to start effecting his performances at some point.

Every Wednesday is Tip Day.
This Wednesday: Nine tips for giving yourself an energy boost in the next TEN MINUTES.
It's hard to feel happy when you're dragging around. Simple tasks seem overwhelming, people seem annoying, and nothing seems fun.
Lots of good results flow from having plenty of energy. Life just seems more manageable. Also, studies show, you're more likely to feel good about yourself, and, Bob Sutton points out in his terrific book, The No A*****le Rule, being considered an "energizer" makes you far more likely to win a positive work evaluation.
For long-term energy, it's most important to A) get enough sleep and B) exercise regularly. But that doesn't help you if you need some energy RIGHT NOW. If you're desperate for an immediate boost, try these tips:
1. Go outside into the sunlight; light deprivation is one reason that people feel tired. Research suggests that light stimulates brain chemicals that improve mood. For an extra boost, get your sunlight first thing in the morning. And while you're outside…
2. Go for a brisk walk. One study found that even a ten-minute walk was enough to supply a feeling of energy and decreased tension.
3. Act with energy. We think we ACT because of the way we FEEL, but often we FEEL because of the way we ACT. Trick yourself into feeling energetic by moving more quickly, pacing while you talk on the phone, and putting more energy into your voice. Also, research shows that when people move faster, their metabolism speeds up.
4. Listen to your favorite upbeat song. Hearing stimulating music gives an instant lift. I'm always surprised by the effectiveness of this strategy.
5. Talk to an energetic friend. Not only do we gain energy from interacting with other people, we also – in what's called "emotional contagion" — "catch" their emotions. Instead of infecting others with your draggy mood, try to lift yourself by catching the energy of a boisterous friend.
6. Tackle an item on your to-do list. Unfinished tasks weigh us down. So if you feel bad about never having had a skin-cancer check, or not having completed an over-due report, or not having faced this month's bills, force yourself to tackle one thing that's nagging you. It's tough, but you will feel a HUGE rush of energy when you cross it off your list.
7. Clean up. I'm not sure why tidying makes such a huge difference, but when I feel like I can't face the day, I just tidy up my desk, and I perk right up.
8. Drink some COFFEE! Coffee gets a bad rap, but fact is, it really does boost alertness, energy, and ability to focus. (Plus it's a great source of antioxidants and – surprise! – contains a high level of soluble dietary fiber.)
9. Note of caution: people often try to use food to boost their low energy, but these other strategies are more effective and more healthful.
"Exuberance is beauty," William Blake wrote, and it's surprising how much sheer energy level can affect the quality of the happiness of a day.

Claire Jungmann, a sixth-grade student at the Doherty Middle School won top honors in the 2012 Anti-Tobacco Poster Contest, an annual educational event to alert schoolchildren to the dangers of tobacco and smoking sponsored by the Massachusetts Medical Society and its Alliance.
Jungmann, whose entry was titled "Smoking takes the color out of life," was one of just 12 winners selected from more than 3,700 entries to the competition, according to the state. The contest is open to youngsters in grades 1-6 throughout Massachusetts.
The competition asks students to create an original poster that ties in with certain themes for their grade. The themes by grades are: Grades 1 and 2: Show how tobacco is bad for your body; Grades 3 and 4: Show how using tobacco affects other people; Grades 5 and 6: Why I won't start. Four entries are selected in each category, and the winning entries are chosen on the basis of originality, artistic merit, and relevance to the theme for the grades.
Winners were honored at a special event at the Massachusetts State House in Boston, where they received a certificate from the Medical Society and a gift card for books as prizes. Winning entries will also be included in a 2013 calendar produced by the Medical Society that will be distributed to schools, pediatricians, and family physicians across the Commonwealth. Presenting the awards were Richard Aghababian, M.D., president of the Massachusetts Medical Society; Alan Ashare, M.D., chairman of the Medical Society's Committee on Student Health and Sports Medicine; and Gladys Chan, president of the MMS Alliance.
This year marked the 17th year that the Massachusetts Medical Society has conducted the contest. To view all 12 winning entries, visit massmed.org/tobacco
Founded in 1781, MMS is the oldest continuously operating medical society in the country. The MMS Alliance is the organization of physicians' spouses committed to promoting good health among the citizens of Massachusetts.

The Wild have rebounded since their three-game regulation loss streak, getting a point against the Colorado Avalanche, and then got a win against Philadelphia.
But tonight, we're going to see if the Wild's improved game is for real or not, as they'll be facing a tough challenge in the NHL-best (and defending Stanley Cup Champion) Chicago Blackhawks, who will be coming to the Xcel Energy Center tonight.
The Wild and Blackhawks have met twice this season on a home-and-home, with each team taking the game in their opponent's building, despite the losing team controlling possession. The Blackhawks-Wild rivalry is still trying to get off the ground, and having that kind of give-and-take is something that should bode well for that.
Elsewhere in the league? The big news of the day is Henrik Lundqvist got signed to a gigantic deal for a gigantic amount of money, a 7 year, 59.5 million dollar deal. That's the 5th highest cap-hit in the league, and highest for a goalie. There's risk in giving anyone a contract that long, particularly a goaltender, but if anyone in the league has deserved it, it's hard to argue that it hasn't been Lundqvist.
Anyway, on to the Walk.
Wild News
Mikael Granlund being kept off ice; Working the power play; Yeo on Fontaine | Russo's Rants | StarTribune.com- Lots of nuggets from Mike Yeo today.
Minnesota Wild's Mikael Granlund 'not making progress' after head injury - TwinCities.com- The bad news of the day, as Mikael Granlund isn't recovering from his concussion.

INDIAN LAND — Four members of the community will receive recognition for making a difference and residents can help decide who is honored.
The second annual Making a Difference Awards Luncheon will be held at 11 a.m. March 15 at the Pleasant Hill United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall at 238 Fort Mill Highway in Indian Land.
The luncheon, sponsored by Steele Hill Community Partners, aims to recognize four individuals from northern Lancaster County who make a difference through volunteer and professional community service, said Fred Witherspoon, executive director for Steele Hill Community Partners.
"A lot of people volunteer their time and effort to making the Indian Land community what it is," he said. "The community appreciates all the good work that they do."
From community nominations, the board of directors of Steele Hill Community Partners Inc. will review and complete the selection process of four honorees, Witherspoon said. The partners look for nominees who have lived in northern Lancaster County for at least three years, are active in the community through school, church or other volunteer organizations and "donate their time and effort to projects that positively impact the community," Witherspoon said.
After last year's successful first luncheon with 80 attendees, Witherspoon said the Partners hope to continue the award and see it grow.
"We want this to be a community award," he said. "There are some people out there doing great things, we just need to know about it. We welcome all nominations."
The luncheon also benefits the Hi Kee Summer Enrichment Program, an eight-week summer program dedicated to academic learning.
"We're helping kids have productive, enriching summers," Witherspoon said.
