Part 3 and last of this series. See first post for explanations of terminology.
Opening Day Age: 27
2011 Bill James projection: 204 IP, 8.51 K/9, 3.62 BB/9, 3.45 FIP
Prediction: Improve
Analysis: After a strong followup to his breakthrough 2009 season, Lester has made a strong argument for himself as the best lefty starter in MLB. He continued to improve in 2010, significantly raising his GB/FB ratio to 1.81 while maintaining the whiffs. While his walk rate rose, his other peripherals indicate this was a conscious choice in approach more than a slip in control. Lester threw first-pitch strikes at the highest rate of his career, yet his total zone % was also his lowest ever by a wide margin. Opposing hitters hit infield pops against him at their highest rate ever, and posted their lowest line-drive % ever. Long story short, he became even more proficient in 2010 at getting hitters in the hole early, then methodically frustrating them with tempting pitches outside the zone. The result: tons of strikeouts, ground balls, and weak contact. Lester also continued to show virtually no platoon split thanks to the quality of his cutter and change, both of which registered top-notch pitch-type run values (17.9 runs above average for the cutter and 10.3 for the change). His game looks rock solid to me and he continues to develop more and more tactics to increase his dominance. As he keeps refining himself, I expect he will gradually lower the walks without giving up the gains in ground ball rate. At that point, look out American League.
Opening Day Age: 32
2011 Bill James projection: 227 IP, 7.1 K/9, 2.7 BB/9, 3.81 FIP
Prediction: Improve
Analysis: Lackey is another player whose 2010 I analyzed in a separate post. I am quite optimistic on his prospects this year as his peripherals showed continuous improvement throughout 2010, even as his ERA did not. While many came to scoff at Lackey's frequent claims of bad luck or having pitched what he felt was a good game, he did suffer from several months of terrible BABIP. Some positive regression there should be on his side. Lackey also seemed to finally figure out the AL East during the last third or so of the season, pushing his K rate back to strong levels and reducing his walks. While it is true that many of his opponents during this span were of mediocre quality, keep in mind that those were the same teams that were successfully using him as a punching bag earlier in the year. I noted in my piece on Lackey that his year-end improvement coincided with a strong rebound in the effectiveness of his slider and change, allowing him more offspeed options, especially against LHB who had tormented him all year. He posted double-digit whiff rates for all three of his breaking pitches (slider, change, curve) during his strong August-September, even as his fastball types remained feeble at best. Given Lackey's experience and the benefit of having a year in the division behind him, I am optimistic he can incorporate the lessons of 2010 into his approach this year and maintain his progress against lefties. The effectiveness of his offspeed pitches against LHB will in my opinion be the predominant factor in his success for 2011.
Opening Day Age: 30
2011 Bill James projection: 168 IP, 8.3 K/9, 2.63 BB/9, 3.78 FIP
Prediction: Improve
Analysis: You can put me in the camp that believes Beckett was never at 100% in 2010. Undoubtedly he was hampered by a horrendous BABIP and strand rate, but the blame must also be laid on his own pitching. His ballooning HR/9 and walk rate were painfully similar to his meatball-tossing 2006, while he posted a negative run value with the fastball for only the second time in his career, the other (surprise) being 2006. Many have intimated that his myriad problems could be traced to poor conditioning, which may have aggravated (or caused) his back injury. Fire Brand AL's piece on Beckett, which I recommend as great reading, noted how his opponent OPS by pitch groups (e.g. every 25 pitches further into the game) skyrocketed with pitches 75-100, a trend not seen in the previous few years. Beckett himself also told media that he felt the injury hampered his ability to fully finish his delivery, presumably affecting his fastball effectiveness and leading to the cringe-worthy HR massacres he served up several times. On the positive side, none of his other indicators suggested physical decline, and Beckett is by all reports completely healthy and physically prepared for a productive 2011. He still kept a good GB/FB ratio, missed bats, walked few, kept his fastball in the mid-90s, and become more comfortable with his cutter. These are all elements of a successful starter, and if his motivation to redeem himself after a poor season is anything like we have seen in the past, I have aggressive expectations for a rebound from him.
Opening Day Age: 26
2011 Bill James projection: 193 IP, 7.83 K/9, 3.45 BB/9, 3.71 FIP
Prediction: Improve
Analysis: Where Buchholz goes after his breakthrough 2010 seems to be the subject of much hand-wringing among Red Sox Fans. Another low to mid-2's ERA is almost certainly not happening, but I would still not hesitate to label a 2011 season with a mid-to-high 3 as an "improvement" if he cranks up the K's. His contact peripherals, pitch-type run values, and raw stuff all easily support much more strikeouts than he posted last year; Buchholz's fastball alone rated a staggering 20.8 runs above average in 2010 with a 94.1 average velocity, one of the hardest among AL starters. He posted a strong 1.61 GB/FB ratio and has never had a problem getting grounders, so adding more K's to the mix will make his true performance level a lot more worthy of a 2.33 ERA than his numbers last year indicate. Priority #2 for Buchholz is lefties. As he features a quality changeup, I was surprised to see how much he really struggled against them last year, with a 5.63 K/9, 3.88 BB/9 and 4.14 FIP, more than a full run higher than that against RHB. Thanks to that helpful G/F ratio, he escaped any significant harm from these otherwise poor peripherals, but I would still prefer more whiffs. There is no risk of a lucky hit when the ball never leaves the bat to begin with. So admittedly, my personal criteria for Buchholz "improving" is rather light. If he can keep his groundball rate and walks the same while raising his K rate up to the high 7's or low 8's, I will be very pleased. He has the raw talent and stuff to match up with anybody in MLB, is still very young, seems to be getting physically stronger, and with a successful season in the rotation under his belt, I am optimistic that he will continue getting better.
Opening Day Age: 30
2011 Bill James projection: 173 IP, 8.22 K/9, 3.8 BB/9, 3.94 FIP
Prediction: Improve
Analysis: I freely admit to being as snide as anyone when it comes to deriding spring training stats, but if it turns out that Curt Young's innocent change in Dice-K's routine was the big secret all along, I will gladly eat humble pie. Bill James is certainly optimistic that something will click, as an 8+ K/9, sub-4 walk rate and sub-4 FIP would make him by far the best fifth starter (and likely fourth) in the majors, as well as his best season so far. As always with him, it is difficult to get an idea of where he is headed when his results vary so wildly from season to season and even start to start. Dice-K has been crippled mainly by his penchant for walking lefties, who enjoyed an eye-gouging 5.78 BB/9 against him in 2010 and 5.54 career, contrasted to 2.94 for righties. This massive split indicates to me that for whatever reason, he cannot get lefties to chase the pitches that he can get righties to. I am therefore willing to toe the most cautiously hopeful of lines, that Young's arrival may bear fruit for him. Matsuzaka's passivity with the fastball early in the count, and his inability to control/command his offspeed pitches against lefties, seem to me his most glaring obstacles to sustained success. One would imagine that splitting up his long toss and side sessions would reduce his overall fatigue, thus leading to a few positive ticks in his command. Young's strike-aggressive philosophy is by all accounts rubbing off on Dice-K as well. If he can make headway on both of these issues, I think he has some real sleeper potential. It's no secret he still has the raw stuff and talent to dominate any opponent on any given night, and I have always believed that there is no more thrilling starter to watch than a locked-in Dice-K. Yes it's spring training, and yes we have all seen him tease before, then revert to his old ways. So I freely admit my optimism is built on the most tenuous of grounds. All in all though, there are worse problems to have than fretting over whether or not your fifth starter will perform like a fifth starter.
So this concludes my 3 part series. To sum it all up, I feel this is the most balanced and talented Red Sox team to ever step foot on the field during Theo Epstein's tenure. This team features an offensive core in its prime with a mix of speed, power, and defense that has not been seen here in years. It will roll out a strikeout and groundball heavy pitching staff with five starters capable of dominating any opponent on a given night, and an extremely versatile bullpen stocked with power arms. The bench is well constructed with players who would be starters on many other MLB teams, capable of covering multiple positions and whose skillsets perfectly complement the weaknesses of those they will sub for. While Duquette-era Sox teams were defined by a handful of larger than life superstars and a bunch of random names, I feel the 2011 team is the most representative of Epstein's vision: one that will relentlessly attack opponents with a barrage of 4 and 5-WAR players capable of winning games at the plate, in the field, and on the mound. Adrian Gonzalez and Jon Lester may not be as exciting as Manny and Pedro (who ever could be?) but they will fill the same role, and with a far better supporting cast.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to the 2011 season on OTM.

Columbus (WOIO) - Three nights after getting embarassed by the Wisconsin Badgers on the road, the Ohio State Buckeyes returned home and delivered a beatdown of their own, slamming the Minnesota Golden Gophers, 71-45 at Value City Arena.
After Aaron Craft's buzzer-beater put OSU up by six at the half, the Buckeyes regrouped, and blew it open in the second half, with Deshaun Thomas once again leading the way with 19 points.
The Buckeyes (19-7, 9-5) will face a much tougher test on Sunday, when they host 4th-ranked Michigan State on Sunday afternoon.

Tomorrow should be a time for slaughter. Today the Saints have let out that they shall err on the side of caution this week and rest Brees, netting him the NFL record for pass percentage completion. 70.6 over Bengal's great Ken Anderson's 70.55 set in 1982.
As a Panthers fan, I would like to sincerely thank the Saints for allowing us the opportunity to crush your souls underfoot this week. Drew Brees is the best weapon on the team, and he's going to be sitting on the bench the entire game. Do you really think that Mark Brunell, a 39 year old guy who hasn't started a game in 3 years, will be able to save them? Not likely. People worry about the rust on Brees going into the playoffs, but what about just this game coming up? Mark Brunell's has so much rust on him he probably moves like a statue by now.
The Panthers are destined to win this game and go 8-8. The Saints will be without key starters on their offense in WR Lance Moore, RB Pierre Thomas, and probably TE Jeremy Shockey along with many other players on defense as they struggle to get healthy for the playoffs. The Saints will have to depend heavily on Heisman winner Reggie Bush to carry the load, but he's already shown that he has trouble being the main back. The Panthers run defense will be tested early and often, and as long as they can shut him down and get their offense firing early, they should have no problems overrunning the cautious Saints and winning by double digits.
Panthers Run Defense vs Reggie Bush
The Saints have already been down the road of trying to make Reggie Bush their main back, and it hasn't been pretty. The last 3 years he's averaged under 4 yards per carry and never lived up to the hype he had coming out of USC. As long as the Panthers play 7-8 people in the box and keep him from reaching the edge, they should have no trouble shutting him down between the tackles, and therefore stop their running game.
Panthers Pass Defense vs Mark Brunell
Exit stage left Drew Brees, enter stage right Mark Brunell. He's a 39 year old veteran well past his prime. While other older QB's like Brett Favre and Kurt Warner have come out of the rocking chair and been pretty successful, I don't expect that kind of play from Mark Brunell this week. He's 3 years removed from starting an NFL game, and he's been on and off during the entire preseason. Threw 2 good games against the Bengals and Texans, and threw a couple of stinkers against the Raiders and Miami.
Julius Peppers needs to come into this game ready to play. He needs to show the NFL why he's so good at his craft. Mark Brunell needs to be forced into making mistakes, and Julius Peppers is just what the doctor ordered. Whether or not he shows up next year in a Panthers uniform, I expect him to show up this game and show Mark Brunell the fine dining that the turf has to offer.
Panthers O-Line vs Saints D-Line
Very quietly, Saint's DE Will Smith has put up a Pro-Bowl worthy season, 13 sacks and constant pressure at his position. They'll surely move him around to both DE positions to frighten our O-Line, and it'll be up to backups Geoff Swartz and Travelle Wharton to stop them.
It will be a great help to us in this matchup to call a balanced game. As long as we don't revert to a pure passing game like we've done in the past, then this star DE will have other things to worry about other than purely rushing the passer. If we call a good game, and Matt can continue to escape the pocket when he's under threat, we'll do pretty well in this upcoming game.
Moose and Moore vs Saint's CB's
With Steve Smith out because of injury, the best chance the Panthers have of making the pass game work is reviving the Moore to Moore connection we had going during the pre-season. Dwayne Jarrett has been a total bust, so this is a fine time to evaluate Moore and find how if he has #2 or #3 talent for the future. He's only an inch higher than Steve Smith, and his 4.47, 40 time and 28 inch jump vertical is nothing to boast about, but he's shown great chemistry with Moore in the past so we'll get to see where he fits for next year.
Moose on the other hand, he's going to have to show us what he was. Moose is expected to be the #1 option with Smith hitting the bench. Does he still have the tools to gain separation and get open? With the Saints expected to load the box, he'll have to be successful in order for us to truly begin our romp of the Saints.
Panthers Special Teams vs Reggie Bush
Somehow, I feel like our special teams are going to give us one last reason to fire Danny Crossman during the off-season. Throughout the years, he's only given us mediocre unit after mediocre. Constant dropped punts, bad blocking along the line, and long return allowed against players we've never heard about before. When the Panthers go up against Reggie Bush on Sunday, somehow deep in my gut I expect some shenanigans. It may only be one play, but I expect shenanigans.
I hope that we can finish this game strong with a dominant effort, but I'll bet you anything that we'll give up a big return for a touchdown or something weird like that. It may only delay the inevitable Panthers victory, but it will be annoying none-the-less.
I believe that the Panthers will win this game. I don't believe it'll be close. Our team has been playing lights out for the last couple of weeks. There is no way that the Panthers will allow themselves to be beaten by a bunch of backups. The Panthers will close out this season in a big way, 45-17. If the passing game works, the running game will go over 100 yards. If the passing game doesn't work, Jeff Davidson might screw up another game.

Today was a good day. I got some things done that needed to be. I missed Angelica's English lesson : (. Bad me. I'm supposed to meet her at 2:00, but I didn't realize what time it was already and was trying to finish computer work for Sandy. I found her at 2:30, but she had to go to practice. I got to meet Merari's two little girls today. They are adorable. The younger one is 2 and the older is 8. I got to play with them today.
Alexandra, the older one, had fun "draging" me around today.
By the way here is a picture of Angelica. I have been teaching her English every Saturday.
She's holding your present Janet. (I gave it to her a long time ago. She really liked it and wore the hair clip the next day.)
Friday: Yesterday Sandy and Joann invited some people over for dinner. A very good friend of theirs named Joshe and his wife and children and Sister and mom and everybody. I have been getting to know Joshe and his family, but hadn't yet met the rest of his family. It was a really good time. I felt like I was home at one of my family gatherings. (Especially with all the kids running around : )
This is everyone that came Friday night. They are all very sweet people.
Don Hector is on the very right and then Mama Yolanda and Joshe, Julio behind him-his son, Rachel sitting-his daughter, Kayla his wife, Hector-son of Carolina, Maria behind Hector-her daughter, Carolina, and her husband (I don't know his name)
By the way, Azucena and Delmer are doing well. They are being fed and taken care of. I only wonder what it will be like when they return to the mountain. When I last saw Baby (I just call her that since she doesn't have a name) she was all content and sleeping. I just heard today that not only is their house burnt down, but everyone elses' houses were burnt down as well. Part of the village is nothing now. Roberto said that there is no one living there any more and that it was other Tolepan Indians that burned down their part of the village. Roberto is now working to see where he can get them to live, since they can not live there anymore. I hope Roberto will be able to find them all a home. Please pray for the village that they will come to know Jesus, like Delmer, Azucena and their chief. And also for the other Indians who are trying to harm them. May they be saved as well and praise His name.
Please pray for the US elections on Tuesday! This is crucial.
May whatever happens be God's will. Praise God that even in the worst we have nothing to worry for it is all in His hands.
I was thinking about how awesome that is today. We truly have no reason to worry when we are in Him! I still can't seem to "wrap my head arround it". (such a weird saying : )
Well that's my update.
Be back soon.

A great fall or winter dish – I love the apple/cinnamon aroma as it bakes. The original recipe calls for butter, and the cranberries are my addition. You can use fresh or dried cranberries. At first bite into the baked cinnamon-y apples, you'll think this is a dessert instead of a vegetable dish.
4 Tbsp Earth Balance Buttery Sticks
1/4 cup real maple syrup
1/4 cup cranberry or cranapple juice
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ginger
1 large butternut squash
3 Granny Smith apples
1/2 cup cranberries
Salt to taste
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Combine butter, maple syrup, juice and spices in heavy saucepan over medium heat.
3. When butter has melted, turn heat down and let sauce simmer 5 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, cut squash in half lengthwise. Remove seeds and peel. Slice in 3/4″ slices and layer in bottom of 9×12″ ungreased baking dish.
5. Peel and core apples. Slice in thin slices and layer on top of squash in baking dish.
6. Spead cranberries evenly over top of squash and apples; sprinkle lightly with salt.
7. Pour maple sauce over top. Cover with aluminum foil and bake 30 minutes.
8. Uncover and bake 10-15 minutes longer until squash is fork tender, basting every 5 minutes with maple sauce.
Makes enough for a large crowd.

Russians Keep Olympic Hopes Alive
STAVANGER, NORWAY, July 2, 2004 - After losing their first match here Friday to Dain Blanton and Jeff Nygaard of the United States in the men's US$360,000 ConocoPhillips Open, Russia's Roman Arkaev and Ditmitri Barsouk rebounded with two elimination wins to keep their Olympic chances alive.
Seeded 18th in the 32-team Main Draw after winning two SWATCH-FIVB World Tour Qualification Tournament matches Wednesday and Thursday, Arkaev and Barsouk are within 60 points of tying for the 22nd and final spot for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.
With a guaranteed 13th-place this week, Arkaev and Barsouk have now compiled 938 Olympic qualifying points for their best eight finishes on the SWATCH-FIVB World Tour since the start of the process in January 2003. The Russians face seventh-seeded Julien Prosser and Mark Williams in one of four opening elimination matches Saturday morning
With the final two berths in the 24-team men's Beach Volleyball field for Athens going to the host country and a representative from Africa continent, Canadians John Child and Mark Heese currently reside in the 22nd spot with 998 points after placing 17th this week. Kristjan Kais and Rivo Vesik of Estonia also placed 17th Friday to improve their Olympic qualifying point total to 962 points.
Friday's "big" winners were the teams of 22nd-seeded Dax Holdren/Stein Metzger of the United States and 26th-seeded Niklas Rademacher/David Klemperer of Germany as each posted a pair of upset wins.
Both teams entered this week's SWATCH-FIVB World Tour event after placing 25th last week in the Germany Grand Slam event in Berlin. The Germans now face second-seeded Mariano Baracetti and Martin of Conde of Argentina Saturday while Holdren and Metzger challenge third-seeded Franco Neto and Tande Ramos of Brazil.
Top-seeded Emanuel Rego and Ricardo Santos, the defending ConocoPhillips Open champions play eighth-seeded Eric Fonoimoana and Kevin Wong of the United States in their first match Saturday. Fourth-seeded Sascha Heyer and Markus Egger of Switzerland face fifth-seeded Todd Rogers and Sean Scott of the United States in the other match in the third-round of the winner's bracket.
Other opening elimination matches Saturday have the 15th-seeded Blanton/Nygaard facing 25th-seeded Kjell Goranson/Tarjei Skarlund of Norway, sixth-seeded Andrew Schacht/Joshua Slack of Australia playing 20th-seeded Francisco Alvarez/Juan Rosell of Cuba and 13th-seeded Pedro Grael Brazão/Fred Souza of Brazil challenging 12th-seeded Andreas Scheuerpflug/Christoph Dieckmann of Germany.
With the women's "final four" set for Saturday in the third of five-straight mixed gender events on the 2004 SWATCH-FIVB World Tour, the men's competition concludes Sunday when the final two teams compete for the $27,000 first-place prize.

Budget 'Premium' Smartphones
By ENS
Published: 25th January 2014 03:23 PM
Last Updated: 25th January 2014 03:25 PM
Lava Iris Pro 30 (Rs 15,999)
From Lava International, comes the Iris Pro 30, designed with the very Apple-esque theme 'Art meets Smart'. Weighing a mere 114 grams, Lava calls it the lightest smartphone in its screen size category in India. That screen itself is a 4.7-inch IPS Sharp display and is supported by a 1.2GHz quad-core processor. In the 7.5mm-thick body, you will also find a 2000mAh battery with CABC technology which should last 30 per cent more than conventional batteries, an eight-MP primary autofocus camera and a three-MP front-facing camera.
Karbonn Titanium X (Rs 16,490)
The Titanium X is neither made from titanium nor from carbon, but is a good looking blend of a 5-inch capacitative touchscreen with a plastic body. Inside you will find a 1.5GHz Quad Core processor supported by a 1GB RAM. While the 2300mAh battery should give you good talk time, the internal storage of 16GB can be expanded up to 32GB.

A volleyball coach who sexually assaulted a 12-year-old girl while serving as an instructor at a summer volleyball camp at the University of San Diego is scheduled to be sentenced Tuesday.
Xia Wei Li, 29, of Pacific Beach, faces between three and 10 years in prison.
Li pleaded guilty to two counts of committing a lewd act on a child under 14 and admitted an allegation of substantial sexual conduct, according to Deputy District Attorney Dan Link.
The defendant will likely be deported once he serves his time in prison, the prosecutor said.
The girl, who lives in San Bernardino, told her parents about the sexual assault, which she said occurred in late July in a secluded outdoor area at the USD campus, according to San Diego police Lt. Rick O'Hanlon.
Li coached for Epic Volleyball in Poway from 2006 through 2008, and Coast Volleyball in San Diego from 2008 to this year, O'Hanlon said.
Li had been scheduled to resume his post as junior varsity girls' volleyball coach at La Jolla Country Day School this fall.

"For the past 10 semesters, our student-athletes have earned a combined grade-point average of at least 3.1, which I think is a tremendous indication of our dedication and commitment to academics.

Bumped by VanRam: Insightful fanpost focused on a subject very worthy of discussion.
The new news that owners are pushing for a "right of first refusal means the following:
The owners want up to three tags that will allow them the ability to match any offer to a Free agent that is given by another team.
Personally I think this is insane. These players are either free or they are not and with the RFA tags, Franchise tags and Transition tags that is enough already.
Free Agency is one of the things that keeps parity in the NFL which is why it is so interesting. Any team any year has a shot!
My solution? The poison pill! So for instance we want to sign Reggie Bush - We simply insert a clause in the contract when he comes to visit and we sit him down that says "If Reggie plays more then 4 games in LA then he will make an additional 3 million dollars per game played in LA. This will destroy any chance that the saints have to match and make the right of first refusal moot.
So are we about to enter into the year of the poison pill? Do owners win the right of first refusal? What do you all think about the owners pushing this point?

Time: April 29, 2011 to April 30, 2011
Location: Branson MO.
Street: Country Blvd
City/Town: Branson
Website or Map: http://www.owammos.com/
Event Type: gathering, and, reunion
Organized By: Dan Wyatt
Latest Activity: Apr 25, 2011
OWAMMO's Gathering / Swap Meet on April 29 & 30, 2011 Greetings To All, The first Old Wood and Metalworking Machine Operators (OWAMMO'S) Gathering was held in on 5/7/2007 and so much fun was had by all that we decided to have 2 per year, so this will make our 9th OWAMMO'S Gathering.
We have moved the OWAMMO's Gathering to a better area in Hollister, MO at the Ozark Mountain YMCA to have our event. We have set the dates for the Spring 2011 OWAMMO's Gathering for April 29 & 30, 2011! Our OWAMMO's Planning Team is comprised of people that like old wood and / or old metalworking machinery, vintage hand tools, woodworking, metalworking, and related interests and they have been working for quite some time now planning an event by which we can open the invitation to many. We would like to extend that invitation now to you! Please join us in Hollister & Branson, Mo. on April 29 & 30, 2011 for a big old-fashioned "old wood and metalworking machinery swap meet", and the associated exhibits / demonstrations / goodies that we have planned around this family oriented event.
Obviously we cannot predict with accuracy the total numbers that may attend, but we are posting this invitation on about 20 forums and estimate a good turn out from about 20 or so states. We have had some interest in vintage hand tools, blacksmithing, and model engines over the years so we decided this year to invite several clubs and organizations from these 3 subjects to come have fun with us also. We are excited that many new people will be joining us who are akin to our interests. Also remember that the Hollister / Branson area offers a multitude of wonderful attractions, shopping, excellent restaurants, and things for the spouse and children to experience so please have your family look over the "Branson" link under "EVENT" on our web page.
Please visit our web page (www.owammos.com) where you will find several links to information concerning the OWAMMO's Gathering including: demonstration topics, motel information, scheduling, a section for family entertainment, and other pertinent information regarding the event. The cost for the gathering will be $25.00 per person for the two-day event if you register before October 15th, and your Spouse and children (under 18) get in for free! We honor all Disabled Veterans, and for those Disabled Veterans who wish to attend our event we are waving all registration costs for you and your immediate family and we thank you for your service to our Country.Please send me a private email to email@example.com and I will arrange to wave our registration costs.
Obviously you can stay wherever you like while attending our event, but the greatest percentage stayed at the Best Western Center Point due to the fact that it is closer to our events than the one that we stayed in last fall, located in the middle of the entertainment section for the family, easier to find as it is on the same 76 hiway as is the Branson Landing, etc. Due to other groups and people needing rooms in the spring we were only able to reserve a block of 24 rooms, but we did get a "special" rate of $56.00 plus tax so if you want to stay there you probably need to book a room ASAP.
Here is the web address for Best Western Center Point Hotel: http://www.myerhotels.com/branson-hotels-lodging/center-pointe-inn/index.php The phone number is 417-334-1894 and again ask for "the OWAMMO's Gathering group rate" when booking to get this special rate. The address is: Best Western Center Point 3215 West 76 Country Blvd. Branson, MO
This will be my first time, and I'm really looking forward to checking it out and meeting everyone.
David Parker
I been to just about all of them and will be at this one too. It's always a lot of fun. Like a fine wine they just keep getting better.
Dan Mangile
I am looking forward to this. I feel like a new dad waiting for the kids to arrive. I am getting two "new" machines. YEAH!!!

Sanchez Watt signs for Colchester United
Updated 11:23am Friday 28th June 2013 in Colchester Utd
Colchester United have got their man.
Manager Joe Dunne has completed the signing of former Arsenal player Sanchez Watt on a two-year deal.
Sanchez, who had a successful loan spell with the U's last season, before injury cut short his time at the club was one of Dunne's main summer transfer targets.
Sanchez was released by Arsenal at the end of last season and Dunne was able to entice the player to the Weston Homes Community Stadium ahead of a number of other clubs that were in the hunt for his signature.

My bank told to come in and let them do the withdrawal and it would not count. I never have done it because I put all my bills on a credit union's credit card and pay it off at the end of the month from their reward checking account. At the end of the year the credit union sorts the bills paid by category for me.

Cotswold District Council's planning committee in "real danger" of being put into special measures following poor record of planning appeals (From Wilts and Gloucestershire Standard)

Cotswold District Council's planning committee in "real danger" of being put into special measures following poor record of planning appeals
7:00am Thursday 20th February 2014 in News By Shaun Dix
MAJOR planning decisions could be made outside the jurisdiction of Cotswold District Council, after it was revealed that the authority was on the verge of being put into special measures.
The announcement was made by Cllr Robin Hughes, chairman of CDC's planning committee, during a debate at the January planning meeting in which members refused an application for 120 homes in Fairford.
Cllr Hughes told the committee that, in light of its recent record of failed planning appeals, there was a "real danger" of the council being assigned special measures.
This would allow developers of major products to submit planning applications directly to the Planning Inspectorate and completely bypass CDC's elected planning committee.
Cllr Nick Parsons, cabinet member for forward planning, said that, to avoid special measures, the committee must only reject future applications when there is a valid reason for doing so, even if "there is overwhelming opposition from local residents".
He also said that the council currently meets the required time taken to determine its major applications.
CDC recently lost an appeal in the High Court to overturn a decision made by the Planning Inspectorate to build nearly 300 homes in Tetbury.
The council, which had originally refused permission for the 289 homes last February, was fighting to overturn an intervention by the Secretary of State to allow the build to go ahead.
Further criticism was heaped on CDC's planning committee in 2011 after it failed to deliver an up-to-date Local Plan that would set out the district's development requirements up until 2031.
The leader of CDC, Cllr Lynden Stowe, said that the committee members were "quite right" to support communities in their objections to unwanted developments but that central government had taken a different view.
"The coalition government has moved the planning policy goalposts on a regular basis and it looks as though there is now very little scope to oppose unwelcome development," he said.
If special measures were introduced, CDC would join only a handful of other councils across the country to be stripped of its decision making powers.
Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, MP for the Cotswolds, told the Standard that special measures would be "extremely unwelcome" as it overrides localism in planning.
"I will do whatever I can to prevent the government nationalising planning decisions in the Cotswolds. We do not want decades of careful planning ruined in a few years of unrestrained growth," he said.
The MP has planned to discuss the situation at a meeting with planning minister Nick Boles and the leaders of both Cotswold and Stroud District Council.
Cllr Paul Hodgkinson, Lib Dem leader on CDC, said it would be a "disaster" if people outside the area were given the power to decide where houses are built.
"It shows that the council's administration has lost control due to its lack of a Local Plan and five year housing supply," he said.

I can only conclude that the Conservative led CDC is behaving as if they are "on the side of property developers" and have used the excuse of not having a plan to allow these applications through. Perhaps they think that the incomers are more likely to be Conservative voters?

- Why has the political leadership allowed this state of affairs to arise ?
- Why has the Cabinet Member for Planning not resigned ?
- Why has there not been a regime change ?
Back in 2011 when the Planning Department should have been drafting a Local development Plan, I recall they were particularly busy trying to nail anti-corruption Cllr Jenkins to his cross.
The local Tories have imploded and have lost the plot (but not that building plot coming near you anytime soon).

Susie Clark says...
1) So, the council is not "on the side of developers" after all and refuses permission for sites across the Cotswolds
2) The developers appeal
3) The coalition government accepts the appeal on the basis that 1) has happened and , as a result ,there aren't enough houses in the pipeline
4) The council,still trying to defend the countryside , appeals against the decison and loses
5) Houses are built
If the council avoided steps 1 ) to 4) , 5) would happen immediately and the council would then be accused of being " on the side of developers "
What would you do, Crispin - allow the developments in the first place or fight them, as the council has done . You're kidding yourself that a local development plan would make any difference. Do you really think that a Coalition government would just roll over and agree to fewer houses being built just because a local plan says so - no goverment in the last 20 years has blindly accepted local plans and this government even less so, with immigration as it is and a housing policy in favour of development. Get real !

And then election time looms.
Time was when local Councillors thought their job was to oversee the implmentation of their manifesto by the professional officers. It is an afront that the District Local Plan which would clearly set out the Councils view on the future, having consulted on the issue, which should be the planning Councillor's Bible and inform their decisions is missing. Very convenient for those who see the absence of a proper plan as an excellent opportunity for dodgy deeds.
As an aside, did the Council ever consult on the emphasis they now place on raising funds through car parking charges? Are these grossly inflated charges good for their voters? Good for town centre shopkeepers and the town centrre as a whole? Or merely a shabby way of raising funds? I look at some of the planning applications that do get through and one wonders, given modern car usage, where the cars are intended to park, except in expensive council car parks, raising funds for the Council. Except the supermarkets,of course, who have large dedicated parking areas, but then, they have special arrangments.

Just what we need really big estates ! Lets start with 1500 affordable Bovis Homes on the Gatcombe Park Estate eh Anne ....
Another great hypocrite was the previous useless MP for Cirencester Nicholas Ridley who despite saying the countryside was not a museum
. As Secretary of State for the Environment, Ridley opposed a low-cost housing development near his own property, earning him the title of NIMBY ('Not In My Back Yard').......

The Parliamentary declaration of interests for poor Geoffrey reveals he is a partner in Salisbury Road Development LLP.
There is nothing quite like a good old Conservative MP taking full financial advantage of "a few years of unrestrained growth" whilst simultaneously telling the press he is most concerned about the bulldozers.

We all have an oppurtunity coming up elections. If you are sick and tired of being patronised, lied to and seeing examples of blatant theft then you have an oppurtunity to change matters by voting for any party other than the Conservative ,Labour and Libdem party.
Have the Conservative ruling CDC saved the southern views of Cirencester by the approval of a 21st century "Gorbals" e.g the hideous mound called KingsMeadow... built on a hill so everyone can see it for miles !
There are numerous brownfield sites in Cirencester that could be redeveloped for housing , but with success governments refusing to change the VAT disincentive to build on greenfield sites developers will continue building on fields . To counter this the current feckless Conservative Government increased the incentive of building on greenfield sites by upping the VAT rate to 20%..
Where was that in the Tory manifesto ?

Of course Tories don't like planning. The absence of a local plan and hence a forceful expression of local wishes is open season for developers. Even CDC, however, must see the irony in being so laissez faire that even a Tory led coalition recoils from their excesses.

People Who Claim To Worry About Climate Change Don't Cut Energy Use
Re:No real surprise (710 comments)
did you also included a calculation on the subsidies for nuclear ? http://laka.org/docu/boeken/pd...
first off, let me thank you for the link. I will most certainly read it in full, but if I may, there's a phrase at page 5 which put my nose slightly out of joint:
[...]When only looking at money transfers and tax reliefs (see Table S.1), it can be concluded that the total amount of subsidy that the EU and its Member States give to renewable energy is substantially lower than the amount of subsidy to fossil fuels, and probably in the same order of magnitude of the subsidies to nuclear alone.
It 's my view that no serious analyst would be caught writing such a phrase in a study summary, and I'll show you why.
Imagine that the total available energy pool at the grid operator is 100 units, of which 85 is fossil, 10 is nuclear and 5 is renewables. in a "neutral" world, subsidies per unit would be equal (or zero, which is a subset case), and subsidies to fossil fuels would dwarf subsidies to renewables 85 to 5. So, knowing that fossil fuels get mmore money does not show or imply any preference or disdain against any particular source, unless some other information is added. in my view therefore calling that page a summary is an insult to the english language, or an ode to gullibility. As Dr. Evil said, " I am the boss, need the info"

WSVN -- Like most girls, 28-year-old Jennifer Gonzalez loves clothes and pretty baubles.
Jennifer Gonzalez: "I've always wanted my own store, but rent is very expensive."
So Jennifer came up with a unique idea. Instead of renting a store space, she'll bring the entire boutique called "Love-E" to your house.
Jennifer Gonzalez: "It's a traveling boutique, and I can go anywhere in Miami."
Jennifer will transform your place into a mini-boutique at no cost to you.
Nicole Garcia: "It's just so much easier not to have to go anywhere. It comes here, it's much more relaxing."
All you have to do is invite a bunch of your best gal pals, save some food and drinks and it's a shopping party.
Michelle Arca: "Normally, when you go shopping you want to bring all your friends with you, and here you have them all here, in a comfortable environment."
Jennifer brings racks of the latest styles. Along with purses, belts and jewelry.
Nicole Garcia: "It's very tempting not to leave with one of everything."
And because she doesn't have to pay rent, she can sell the items at a steal.
Michelle Arca: "The prices are great, because for the most part it's under $50."
There's also a new bar in town where instead of ordering a drink, you can sit down and buy a high-end handbag.
CC Levin: "We wanted people to come and see this long 44 foot bar and have these gorgeous bags behind it."
People who belly up to the bar in this boutique will find coveted bags like Chanel, Louis Vitton even an Hermes Birkin.
CC Levin: "Everything we have here is special. We specialize only in high end luxurious items."
Friends Cc Levin and Ilissa Whitehead wanted to change the way people think about consignment so they designed a gorgeous place to shop, and only accept the best labels.
Ilissa Whitehead: "When you walk in you don't feel like you're in a consignment store, you feel like you're in a high-end boutique."
This will make any shoe girl go ga-ga. To make shopping easy, there's an entire wall showcasing their best shoes. Anything from Jimmy Choo to Prada to Dior, and of course racks of clothes from some of the best closets in Miami.
Ilissa Whitehead: "Right now we've got some fantastic Chanel ready to wear, beautiful Valentino as well, Pucci, Dolce and Gabana, and Missoni. All of our items are in excellent condition and in fact, we have many items with tags still on them."
Proving you can looked refined even if it's consigned.
Belkys Nerey: "The Consignment Bar offers a 50-50 split. They'll even come to your house and clean out your closet."

There's a few things you guys know pretty well about me. One...I love my cycling, especially racing. Two...I'm extremely patriotic when it comes to supporting my nation's sporting teams. In an earlier thread where we were discussing the make-up of the Australian team for the World Championship I posted that in this country we don't choose teams on form or fame...we choose teams, or to rearrange the letters a little...mates.
That was more than perfectly demonstrated during the men's U23 Road Race yesterday and as I saw each of the Aussie team doing their jobs as I ventured around the course for the best vantage points, and then saw Michael 'Bling' Matthews tucked in behind Phinney's wheel as they approached the final turn for the finishing straight I didn't need to look up at the big screen to know who'd won.
The best way to feel a bike race is to be in it yourself....the cameraderie, the pleasure and pain, the unique noises of wheels whirring and gears clicking into place. If you're not really fast enough to sit in the middle of the peleton and enjoy such heavenly surroundings then the second best way to watch a race is on the TV...that way you get to see everything, every crash in slow motion several times, every break, every lap, all the way.
But, there's also nothing like being at the race itself, that way you get to feel the emotion of the fans, soak up a bit of outside (and sun if you're lucky) and get to breathe the same air as some pretty amazing athletes. There are several ways to watch a bike race such as this from out on the course, and Geelong has catering for all of them. Some are lucky enough to be able to sit on their front lawns and watch the race pass by where they normally only venture out to place their rubbish bins every week. There are those that bring the fold up chairs, find their favourite vantage point and cement themselves to that spot for the duration of the race, cheering intently as the peleton passes by then going back to reading the Sunday paper in the twenty five or so minutes until they pass by again. Some even sit in the middle of a big field and watch an even bigger TV than the one they've got at home and drink beer or coffee and either head to the barriers when the cyclists pass or pass out. I do it my way.
Yesterday I jumped on the Madone and did a loop of the course, bunny hopping kerbs, weaving through crowds without clipping out, catching up with mates (most of whom had chosen to find a vantage point in close proximity to where they sell beer) and sussing out the best short cuts, photo spots, coffee stalls and chickie babes.
This is the starting line.
I only made it a short distance down the road for lap one as a bike shop was having a big sale but 'Burger' Ben King had already played the ace
...I knew the Aussies would have to play a trump card and there can only ever be check-mate with two Kings up the road. "Vegemite' Ben King did his job to perfection, forced a couple of others to give chase and got to enjoy the downhill on his own for a couple of laps.
By lap two I was in the Barwon Valley so I watched a few laps from there as I concentrated on how the race was panning out. The peleton was relaxed through here allowing the protagonists to joust it out up front.
The top of the climb is where you find the most people in lycra and the best spot for pictures for reasons explained during yesterday's TT.
The descent of the climb is amazing but 90km/hr is a bit quick for my Kodak Brownie to pick up detail.
The bottom of the climb is probably where I will spend the most time during the men's race on Sunday, hard on the brakes, the wooden bridge and the little steep climb up the other side is surely where the race will be won and lost. The atmosphere is true cycling fan down there and the food and drink is just what's needed to quench the needs.
The next couple of laps I got stuck in a pub on Pakington street and watched as the Aussie team controlled the pace of the race and each reeled of as they busted their collective asses for their designated leader. This is probably the most social place to watch the race and being the 'fashion store' street in Geelong it's thick with chicks :-)
On the last lap I made my way to my usual 1 K to go spot. I tend to avoid the finishing straight as it tends to be full of the kind of people who make my viewing unenjoyable.....I usually know who's going to win from 1 K out anyway.
I'm going to have a similar day for today's women's race and hopefully the result will be the same.
But first....a couple of hours along the Great Ocean Road to soak up a bit of sun and sea mist.

Obama administration has come up with a new law to provide protection to those who have rented space in foreclosed properties. This will help dwellers in apartments like Sonesta Circle and Sonesta Drive who got eviction notices.
The law known as Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act of 2009 came into effect on May 20. According to this law, the lease will stay valid from one tenant to another provided he is up-to-date with the rental payments. If any one decides to buy the foreclosed property, he has no other option but to honor the lease contract. On expiry of the lease deed, a tenant will be given 90 days to move to a new home instead of the previous 30 days.
The Sonesta apartments tenants were not given even 30 days notice and that is not allowed. Robert Doggett, of Texas RioGrande Legal Aid says that he will have to know the date of foreclosures before he can judge if Sonesta tenants come under the new law.
John Sanchez, of The Property Management Co, said the agreement with the property owners is over. Without naming the owners he said that he does not know if a foreclosure has been filed. He provided eviction notices to tenants giving them the deadline of July 5 to shift from Sonesta. Doggett says that such a short notice for moving out is not even compliant with the previous state law. The deposits kept with the landlords will have to be given to the tenants anyway. Landlords are normally hesitant to refund deposits but that should not happen in this case.
Sanchez, however, maintains his intention is not to harass the tenants. Rather, he wants to help the tenants by moving them into a house which has a well-manicured lawn and other amenities. The rents are comparable to the ones they are paying now. Sanchez said that he has refunded the deposits of most tenants. The deposits of the remaining residents will be refunded too.
Sanchez also says that he is not aware of the law that has recently come into force. Doggett echoes not many are aware of this law. According to this law, tenants can be evicted only if the buyer wants to occupy the entire space as his home but this is rarely the case with apartments. Still tenants can take the help of lawyers and present a copy of the Federal law at the eviction hearing.

Although older adults still need plenty of fruits and vegetables, whole grains and fiber, they need to add or subtract a few things from the diet they followed earlier in life.
Getting too little vitamin B12 may leave you feeling fuzzy in your thinking and lead to numbness or tingling in your hands and feet.
It is important to control the portion size of even nutrient-rich foods to avoid consuming too many calories. Most people need fewer calories as they grow older and their activity level decreases.
Some weight gain is unavoidable, because as the body ages, body fat increases as lean muscle mass and bone mass decrease. Body weight increases until you reach age 60, when it begins to decline.
As we grow older and our bodies and lifestyles change, our nutritional needs change, as well.
Your loss of appetite may be because of anxiety or depression, aging, medications or a health concern.

It's not that hairy, is it?
I've wiped out the entire flash on my UDB twice, once deliberately and once
by accident while hacking fmu. All I had to do was move the jumper from the
normal boot setting to the emergency recovery setting, boot SRM from the
recovery floppy, and reprogram the flash. It worked fine.
The UDB and Noname don't seem to have the same bootopt mechanism as the
other systems, and I haven't yet figured out exactly how it works. The
UDB normally has SRM in blocks 0-7 and ARC in blocks 8-11. It always starts
in SRM, but if you've told SRM to use ARC it will automatically load it and
switch over.
I think the SROM is always loading the first image (equivalent to bootopt
128 on other platforms), because if I put ARC or Milo in blocks 0-3 they will
start up first, even if you tell ARC to boot SRM (and put SRM in blocks 4-11).
I'd really like to get a copy of the UDB SROM source code, but so far none
of the people in Digital to whom I've enquired have responded.
By the way, on other platforms can you just set bootopt to 7 to boot directly
to Milo regardless of it's position in the flash?
