Demand for English teachers in Hungary is very strong. Teachers in Hungary typically find work towards the beginning of September or October, and then again in January. Most contracts end in late June. For those looking to teach through the summer, opportunities at summer English language camps are available in Hungary and throughout the rest of Europe. Summer positions typically start in late June and early July. English teachers will be expected to interview in person once they arrive in Hungary, and they will also be responsible for their airfare, as well as housing. Most teachers live in apartments recently vacated by previous teachers, and many room with their coworkers.
A solid hourly wage affords English teachers in Hungary to live a very comfortable life. Schools typically offer around 20-25 hours per week of work, leaving plenty of time to travel and explore. English teachers need to have a BA to teach in Hungary, and a TEFL certification is absolutely necessary as well. Major cities for English teaching jobs are Budapest, Debrecen, Miskolc, Szolnok, and Szeged.
Alumni feedback:
Budapest, Hungary English Teaching Q&A with Jenny Bardoczi
Located in the heart of Central Europe, Hungary's mix of historical influences lend it an uniquely alluring charm. With a language and culture that dates back over 1100 years, Hungary has been a major cultural and political force in Europe for centuries. While working as a teacher, you'll have the chance to try traditional Hungarian cuisine- recipes typically contain a strong blend of spices, with preparation methods dating back hundreds of years. Travel to Budapest, and sip wine while watching the sun set over the Danube. Spend time in the ethnically-rich countryside, and take in Hungary's flourishing folk art and music traditions. As a nation that continues to maintain it's heritage while moving into the future, Hungary offers an abundance of memorable tourist attractions.

Francis turns on charm in first meeting with pressBy NICOLE WINFIELD
The Associated Press | March 17,2013AP Photo
Pope Francis walks past a Swiss guard as he arrives for a meeting with the media at the Vatican on Saturday.VATICAN CITY Pope Francis offered intimate insights Saturday into the moments after his election, telling journalists that he was immediately inspired to take the name of St. Francis of Assisi because of his work for peace and the poor and that he himself would like to see a poor church and a church for the poor.
Let me tell you a story, Francis said in a break from his prepared text during a special gathering for thousands of journalists, media workers and guests in the Vaticans auditorium.
Francis then described how he was comforted by his friend, Brazilian Cardinal Claudio Hummes, as it appeared the voting was going his way and it seemed a bit dangerous that he would reach the two-thirds necessary to be elected.
When the threshold was reached, applause erupted in the frescoed Sistine Chapel.
He (Hummes) hugged me. He kissed me. He said dont forget about the poor, Francis recalled. And thats how in my heart came the name Francis of Assisi, who devoted his life to the poor, missionary outreach and caring for Gods creation.
He said some have wondered whether his name was a reference to other Francis figures, including St. Frances de Sales or even the co-founder of the popes Jesuit order, Francis Xavier.
But he said he was inspired immediately after the election when he thought about wars.
St. Francis of Assisi, the pope said, was the man of the poor. The man of peace. The man who loved and cared for creation and in this moment we dont have such a great relationship with creation. The man who gives us this spirit of peace, the poor man.
Oh how I would like a poor church and a church for the poor, Francis said, sighing.
He then joked that some other cardinals suggested other names: Hadrian VI, after a great church reformer a reference to the need for the pope to clean up the Vaticans messy bureaucracy. Someone else suggested Clement XV, to get even with Clement XIV, who suppressed the Jesuit order in 1773.
The gathering in the Vatican begins a busy week for the pontiff that includes his installation Mass on Tuesday.
Among the talks, the Vatican said Saturday, will be a session with the president of Francis homeland Argentina on Monday. The pope has sharply criticized Christina Fernandez over her support for liberal measures such as gay marriage and free contraceptives.
But the most closely watched appointment will be Francis journey next Saturday to the hills south of Rome at the papal retreat at Castel Gandolfo for lunch with Benedict XVI, a historic encounter that brings together the new pope and the first pope to resign in six centuries, which set in motion the stunning papal transition.
The Saturday meeting between the two will be private, but every comment and gesture on the sidelines will be scrutinized for hints of how the unprecedented relationship will take shape between the emeritus pontiff and his successor.
Benedict has promised to remain outside church affairs and dedicate himself to prayer and meditation. Pope Francis, however, has shown no reluctance to invoke Benedicts legacy and memory, in both an acknowledgment of the unusual dimensions of his papacy and also a message that he is comfortable with the situation and is now fully in charge.
World leaders and senior international envoys, including U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, are expected on Tuesday for the formal installation of Pope Francis, the first Latin American pope. It offers the new pope his first opportunities to flex his diplomatic skills as head of the Vatican City State.MORE IN This Just InKnife used Full StoryPLYMOUTH NOTCH — Back country beats music met the picking of banjos and guitars over the...

Reviews by the Alström Bros:
3.3/5 rDev +13.8%
Presentation: 12 oz brown, with a tropical backround on the label, its dubbed as "a golden tropical ale". Freshness date is clearly notched.
Appearance: Pale straw yellow, rich dense semi rocky head ... very nice head retention.
Smell: Clean with hints of grain.
Taste: Very crisp with a sharp grain and spicy hop bitterness bite that mellows out quickly. Faint soft tartness from the wheat sports off its light body. Little other than grain in the finish.
Notes: Not a bad brew, nothing to write home about though still a very drinkable ale.

Got this and some other Ybor beers in a sampler pack , priced right at 10 dollars for 15 beers . ( 3 each of 5 different brews)
Appearance: Poured a paler yellow with a dense head of half an inch that stuck around.
Smell: grainy and slightly tart with a hint of spicyness.
Taste: tart , crisp grain and bit of spicy hop in the finish.
Mouthfeel: crisp and carbonated.
Drinkability: A very drinkable wheat ale , flavors could be more pronounced but its nice on a hot florida day.

12oz. amber bottle courtesy of AKSmokedPorter.
Poured a dull yellow-gold in color with a fast-disappearing white head that ends up being just a ring around the glass. Sparse lacing. Aromas are subdued (at best), though a bit of "wheaty" scent comes through. Flavor is understated as well. Decent base of a mild hefe, balanced with a dash of bitterness at the end. Mouthfeel is borderline thin, but carbonation level helps keep this one afloat. Drinkable, but nothing that I'd earnestly seek out again. An interesting style, but that's about it.

12oz single, from BIF across america and BRoss42
appearance: pours a clear and bubbly pale dull golden colour, foamy beige head forms and has minimal retention...only a thin layer of lacing left behind
smell: strong wet wheat aroma comes through, strong lemon zest whiff, clean and floral
taste: the smell wasn't overwhelming but the taste really didnt follow through...finishes quite grainy, kind of watery with a lemony aftertaste, fair amount of hop bitterness, wheat is not as pronounced
mouthfeel: a bit thin, clean
drinkability: quite so

Pours a clear straw colored yellow with a quickly dissapearing head. Aroma is very clean with grain and maybe the slightest hints of lemon zest and hops. Taste is much like the aroma in that there is not much going on. Clean and crisp taste with some grain and followed by a subtle spicey hop finish. Even though I am not a huge fan of American Wheats, this is just not a very good brew in my opinion.

Poured from 12oz bottle into a pint glass.
Pours a straw yellow, faded and cloudy. 1-2 fingers thick creamy lasting foam. Modest if any smell, some hop in there, otherwise grainy. Taste is like a light wheat beer. Hard to really put words around it, it comes, it goes, and doesn't leave much for you to think about.
A nice drinkable ale, though certainly not memorable.

The last of the sampler pack I picked up. Served chilled in a goblet glass. Poured a pale, hazy yellow. Smelled a little of grains and kind of sour dough, not much malt presence. Tasted meek of spicey hops and a little wheat, kind of a bitter, tart after taste but not as complex as I hoped.

Was given a couple of these beers from a friend who got them in a multi-pack. He didn't like it and was looking to pawn it off - bad sign #1.
Then I looked at the label, and saw it it was printed with a "best before" date that ended in 2005 and was not notched. Either it is a very old beer, or they just chose not to bother notching it, or perhaps both. Bad sign #2.
Tasted it. Bland, thin, and largely flavorless save for a faint sourness on the tongue. Bad signs now make sense.
The label still has the picture of the original brewery that made this product in a renovated cigar factory in Tampa in the late 90's. It's now contract brewed by some outfit in Melbourne. Overall a poor excuse for a beer. Avoid it at all costs.

Bought in a variety pack which included, this selection, Gaspar's Porter, Light, Brown Ale, and their Amber. All around pretty decent beers, not one in the pack I didn't not enjoy.
We are the orange capital of the U.S. can I get a little of that flavor in my beer like typical wheat. I taste more of a bitter, sour-like lambic; almost a Gueze, definately not a wheat. Leaves mouth very dry.

Very light yellow, somewhat glowing straw, thin white top, minimal lace. Nothing pretty. Smell is lightly wheaty and crispy clean with some grains. Taste is minimal wheaty lightness of quick sweet twinge, light textured grain and crisp. Nothin much happenin'. Feel is lighter bodied but getting close to full textured in the middle but doesn't last, otherwise quite empty with a very slight hoppy aftertaste in the finish. No sir I didn't like it.

Ybor Gold Wheat Ale pours a hazy golden color with a thick white head from a brown twelve ounce bottle. Kind of a sour aroma hits first, then I can smell some wheat. I can taste a bit of caramel malt I believe and there's a bit of a sour taste that I think is supposed to be citrus. Not well balanced, I would like more of a wheat flavor for something calling itself a wheat ale.

3.58/5 rDev +23.4%
This pale ale pours nicely golden yellow, builds a quick head that disappears almost immediately and leaves no lace at all ( a good thing as far as I'm concerned).
A slightly citrusy, hoppy nose, not strong but pleasant.
Carbonation tingles the tip of the tongue, with a noticeable note of the alcohol releasing.
Mouthfeel is relatively light, citrusy, some hops, but not too bitter, smooth.
Drinks quite nicely. A good, well-balanced pale ale with a nice summery tropical taste, great for picnics, barbeques or just sitting around sharing with friends. A good choice to get people started on the long, fun trip away from meagbrews and into real beer as it isn't too different from what they know, but quite a bit better.

From a 12 oz bottle from the Ybor multipack, "June" notched on the freshness date, though quite alarmingly, only "03, 04, and 05" were listed for years. I'm assuming "2007." Into the pint glass, a clear orangish color with few bubbles, very anemic head of what foam that rapidly vanishes. Reminiscent of orange Kool-Aid. Nose is bready wheat and not much else. Taste is mild, middle-sweet malt up front with subtle hops and a light bitter finish, very sweet ale-like. Mouth is watery, lightly carbonated and a bit sticky. Drinkability is OK; its pretty smooth and agreeable, but overall unremarkable.
Overall: Nothing remarkable, and very little wheat character.

I bought this brew as part of a 15 beer Ybor mix pack. Poured a medium shade of gold with a thin white head and thin lacing.
The smell is of wheat barley and bit of citrus. The drink is pretty good, a little thin on taste, but very drinkable. The finish is a little strange, definitely taste the citrus influence. I think this beer would be quite tasty on a hot Florida afternoon.

Overhead lights are illuminated as the sun dips lower on the horizon, casting a glow across duos engaged in baseline rallies that echo across Weston Racquet Club's eight outdoor courts. Every day, the club's staffers set up meetings like this between players of similar abilities—staff unconditionally guarantees a suitable partner for individuals any time they are looking for a match. Carefully selected pairs then take to indoor or outdoor courts, which feature cushiony surfaces ideal for players with tender knees or cowardly socks. Members can continue to hone their skills during one of the 30 complimentary tennis clinics offered per week.
Housed inside a restored country mansion originally built in 1858, the clubhouse winds back the clock with an art-deco-inspired interior reminiscent of a 1930s tennis club. After a day on the courts, guests can unwind in the 45,000-gallon heated pool or soothe their aching tennis ear in the hot tub. Weston Racquet Clubs' 40-Love Café aids in refueling by serving a menu of sandwiches, salads, and tapas.
Guests exercise their bodies and minds at ForeCourt Complete Racquet and Fitness Club, where tennis, volleyball, weight-lifting, and other recreational pursuits fight both boredom and inactivity. The blue carpeting of eight indoor courts lies under the tennis arena's vaulted ceiling that echoes the wallops and whacks of each serve, volley, and backhand. During clinics and lessons, beginners learn basic mechanics, court placement, and racket grips, and more advanced players compete in leagues that demand the skill and strategy of playing Risk on trampolines. Forecourt's 10,000-square foot fitness center invigorates mind and matter ready for a break from prowling the baseline. Each week, 50 group fitness classes whip bodies into shape with Zumba's dance cardio programs, yoga's relaxing postures and poses, and spinning's hardy treks across digital terrains. An onsite daycare frees parents to pursue these activities without having to hire a teenager or a guard baboon to babysit their children.
Lasting friendships could be a natural side effect of the fast-paced match play that occurs atop Franklin Park Tennis Association's Shattuck Grove courts. The nonprofit organization enlists certified tennis pros to teach fundamentals during summer classes and camps and winter indoor lessons, while fostering a sense of community among players.
On Saturdays during the summer, classes for kids, youths, and adults are scheduled one after the other. This gives parents an opportunity to chat as kids play, and players get some time to connect before hitting the courts. Competitors can walk away with new comrades and a greater appreciation for active, healthy living that's usually only obtained by blending a year's worth of fitness magazines into a morning smoothie.
The Kingsbury Club, a multi-purpose health facility with a restaurant and multiple fitness/athletics options, ups the net worth of humankind with tennis programs for both raw and rehearsed racketeers. With the one-hour private tennis lesson ($78), taught by a certified senior tennis professional, and a one-day guest admittance ($15) to the Kingsbury Club, guests will refine backhands, polish up volleys, and learn how to properly grunt in spite of headband-wrought cranial pressure. The instructor will offer tips and suggestions on techniques and skills, helping students polish giant-scale ping-pong ability in time for summer's street-corner tennis showdowns.
Though most fairways and greens lie dormant during the winter chill, Rod's Golf Improvement Center's spring to life year-round. Here, golfers can land birdies and pars during rounds at famous courses vividly replicated by three golf simulators. Golfers can also fine-tune their game at driving nets or the practice putting green, which allows them to stop carefully trimming their home's carpets with scissors.
PGA-certified pro Rod Van Guilder oversees the entire operation, and zeroes in on helping golfers sharpen their skills during lessons and club-fitting services. For those looking to upgrade their gear, the center sells golf equipment and repairs broken clubs.

I'm pretty sure we'll end up with dahlias for flowers at the wedding. Recently I've seen more photos of dinner plate dahlias, the ones that are big as yer head. It might be fun to use these instead of bouquets. And I think they might look really good as a single stem in the birch bark tubes. I'm just not sure how easy they are to find.

SHRIMP: Success Story
The Problem
There continues to be increased production of aquaculture or "farm raised" seafood products throughout the world. The US imports approximately 80% of the seafood its population consumes. Aquaculture seafood accounts for over 40% of these imports. Chinese aquaculture accounts for approximately 70% of global production. Concerns have arisen over certain aquaculture drugs that are used in raising seafood. Specifically, the US FDA has listed malachite green, gentian violet, nitrofurans, and fluoroquinolones drugs as a "high enforcement priority" due to the fact that several of these drugs have been shown to have carcinogenic affects in humans.
The US FDA published Import Alert 16-131 within the last five years that prohibited the presence of these aquaculture drugs in imported seafood from China. Each container imported into the US must be tested by an independent third party laboratory for these drugs before it is released into commerce. Each container is placed in cold storage until the results of the tests are received and reviewed by the FDA. Once the results of the tests have proven negative, the FDA will release the product. The importer is faced with one important issue: the time required between receipt of the product at port and the release at the cold storage facility. The importer must pay for time at the cold storage warehouse as well as the opportunity or holding cost of product that cannot be sold.
The Approach
ABC Research Laboratories developed a Detention Resolution Packet "DRP" to provide importers with all of the forms required by the FDA along with the scientific documentation required to support the test results. ABC sought the expertise and guidance of Bruker Corporation, a multinational manufacturer of scientific and chromatographic instrumentation. After several months of discussion and demonstration, Bruker provided an ideal solution to provide accurate, timely results via the Bruker amaZon SL Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer.
The Solution
The FDA reviews, in detail, the DRP prior to releasing the product into commerce. In order satisfy the FDA reviewer's validation requirements ABC must successfully reproduce the FDA's methodology detailed in the FDA's Laboratory Information Bulletins (LIBs). In doing so, ABC must demonstrate acceptable instrument sensitivity via recoveries of analyte in samples fortified at the limit of quantification (LOQ). The LOQ must meet, at a minimum, the levels listed in the LIBs. Coupled with ABC's chromatographic expertise, the Bruker amaZon SL Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer is able to consistently meet or exceed these LOQ requirements. When results are finalized, the DRP is completed immediately and forwarded to the appropriate parties electronically or by overnight courier.
The Result
ABC Clients who are under FDA Import Alert 16-131 have a dedicated team of scientists and client service professionals who recognize the urgency of releasing every container detained by the FDA. Through our DRP, clients simply contact us one time to let us know where their samples are anywhere in the US and the process begins immediately and is seamless to the client. The entire process from sampling to submittal of results to the FDA is always accomplished within five to seven days. This turnaround time is the best in the food testing industry and saves our clients the frustration of dealing directly with the FDA as well as minimizing the opportunity and real costs of detained product.

Still wish you were in Louisville at Nationals? Re-live some of the excitement with our recap:
In light of the University of Louisville's 2013 National Championship victory and the University of Kentucky's 2014 tournament run, there is no shortage of basketball fans in the state of Kentucky. Coincidentally, at the same time that the Kentucky Wildcats were competing in the final four, the Kentucky Expo Center was hosting another basketball event: the 66th Annual NWBA National Tournament.
In its second year in Louisville, the National Tournament was an enormous success. Over 1,000 athletes on over 80 teams competed non-stop, all weekend, under one roof. Aside from the Paralympic Games, the NWBA National Tournament is the largest disabled sporting event in the world.
Top teams from around the country made the journey to Louisville to duke it out for the 2014 National tournament title in their respective divisions. This year, the adult divisions consisted of the Championship, Division III and the Women's Division Championship Game. The Junior 10' Division (broken into NIT and Varsity) featured high school and middle school athletes, and the Junior Prep Division featured middle school and grade school athletes.
Six National Champions were crowned, some old and some new:
The Atlanta Jr. Hawks pulled off the three-peat by defeating the Chicago Skyhawks 36-29 in an emotional, competitive game. This was their third National Championship in a row.
In a battle of the "Cinderella Stories," The ninth-ranked Rockford Jr. Chariots took home the title over the seventh-ranked Jr. Sioux Wheelers by a convincing score of 45-30 in the NIT Division.
To round out our youth divisions, the Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the SLC Rec N' Crew 76-51 in an intense final game. Many spectators of the Junior Varsity championships were in awe of the skill and intensity on the court, and the Junior Varsity MVP, Rose Hollermann, will go on to represent Team USA on the women's World Championship team this summer.
We saw a gritty National Championship game in the Women's Division between the Phoenix Banner Mercury and the University of Arizona Wildcats. The in-state rivalry was apparent throughout the game, but team-oriented offense and stout defense propelled the U of A Wildcats over Phoenix 51-34.
The fifth-ranked Carolina Tarwheels played their way out of the loser's bracket in Division III to upset the San Diego Wolfpack in the final game, 58-51. In their victory, the Tarwheels avenged a blow-out loss to the Wolfpack from earlier in the weekend. A major hi-light was seeing NWBA founder, Tim Nugent, addressing the entire Wolfpack squad, a team made up of players who are primarily military veterans.
Lastly, the Dallas Wheelchair Mavs, the reigning Champs for a number of years, were stunned by the NY Rollin' Knicks in the Championship Game. Lead by Canadians David Eng and Tournament MVP, Pat Anderson, the game was a battle of size versus speed and, on that day, size won. Many of the players in that game will go on to represent their countries in Incheon, South Korea this summer at the World Championships. This was a juicy preview to some of the amazing play in the near-future.
Other hi-lights from the weekend included a new Armed Services Salute Game that featured individuals from Fort Knox and Fort Campbell as well as other NWBA members who were injured in the line of duty, ABC Medical hosted a tournament all-star game, and Per4Max Wheelchairs gave a new sports chair to the winner of a juniors-only shoot out. Additionally, many Louisville celebrities including TV personalities, sports anchors and the mayor of Louisville, Greg Fischer, competed in a fun-spirited and energetic wheelchair basketball game over the weekend.
In all, the tournament can be summed up by the words of our Executive Director, Randy Schubert, "By far and away, this was the best tournament we've offered to our membership."
The event was a fantastic way to feature our incredibly talented athletes, and see a glimpse into the future of our sport with the talented play of the members of our junior divisions. We want to thank all of our volunteers, local partners and sponsors for their support throughout the weekend, and we will see you in Louisville next year!

MONTGOMERY — Barr-Reeve Middle/High School has been named a 2011-2012 Indiana Four Star School by the Indiana Department of Education. In order for a school to be eligible for the honor, the school must be in the 25th percentile of schools in ISTEP testing results. Over 300 schools across the state received the honor. Barr-Reeve was the only Daviess County School to make the cut.
"I want to thank the students, faculty and staff and the community for helping us earn this. We should be very proud and this is another nice honor," said Barr-Reeve Superintendent Travis Madison.
Barr-Reeve Elementary had received the same honor for the 2009-2010 school year.
Summer school elementary teaching positions were recommended and approved for Kerri Boyd, Lindsey Freyberger, Andrea Huff, Amy Kavanaugh, Tenley Lester and Brooke Stuckey. Laura Craney was also approved as the high school physical education aide for the summer school session.
Madison and the board members thanked the community for helping set up the special election held last week and for voting.
"We had 83 percent vote yes and that is incredible. We need to give credit to the folks around here for voting and for showing their support for our schools," Madison said. "Our referendum was one of the most successful."
"I'm very proud to be a board member here. If we had to be a second-rate school then we would have needed to do something else. The kids come first here and it takes good teachers and parents to make us all successful," said board member Scott Lottes.
In other news, all of the buildings will be rekeyed over the summer. Key cards will replace traditional keys. Madison announced that awards programs at both the elementary and middle/high school were this week. The middle/high school program was Wednesday with the elementary program on Friday. The last student school day will be next Tuesday. High school graduation will be at 2 p.m. on May 25.

"SilverStripe has memory leaks"?
5 July 2013 at 7:30pm
The page at http://doc.silverstripe.org/framework/en/topics/commandline includes the interesting nugget of information: "Because SilverStripe has memory leaks, you should make the PHP process exit when it hits some reasonable memory limit".
Can anybody elaborate on the nature of these memory leaks? If you could point me to a bug report of something similar that would be very helpful.

I would like to know about this. I have a Silverstripe 3 site running on an EC2 micro instance, and unless I setup a script to automatically relaunch httpd and mysqld every few days I find the site will have fallen over after a period of time. I assume this is the reason.

Urinary Tract Infection: Asymptomatic Bacteriuria
Topic Overview
Asymptomatic bacteriuria is a common condition in which bacteria are present in the urine but there are no symptoms of a urinary tract infection (UTI). It usually goes away without treatment, but it can be permanent in some people.
Doctors disagree about whether treatment is needed for this condition. And many experts believe treatment should be reserved for UTIs with symptoms.1 But three groups should benefit from treatment. They are:

There was a post on Dawgman wanting to know the timeline for SB 6116.
This was my response:
"The Senate Ways and Means committee took testimony and have made no recommendations thus far so it's "still in committee" until either they send it to the full Senate with approval recommended or it dies in committee for lack of support. Only they know how long that will be but there are other more pressing matters facing them right now. If it comes out it will probably happen toward the end of this session, there is usually a flurry of bills passed in the last couple of weeks. THe governess still has to sign it if it passes.
Cougs excluded, the testimony was favorable, the bill's two main sponsors are on the committee and the committee chair is from King County as well. The feeling I got from attending the hearing was the committee is in favor." I worked for State Printing dep't for 14 years and we printed all the bills, hearing minutes, etc. during the legislative sessions. That is the history behind my response. I watched them work, up close and personal for 14 years

The Lady Urchins rebounded from a disappointed weekend setback to Mooreville by defeating Myrtle, 7-1, on Tuesday.
After falling 17-0 to Mooreville on Saturday, Stephanie Hardy put East on the board in the first, and behind five hits in the second, the Lady Urchins built a 4-0 lead.
Myrtle's run came in the sixth inning after the Lady Hawks loaded the bases with two outs and walked in a run.
East Union responded, doing the same in the top of the seventh, loading the bases and scoring on a single by Tianna Castillo and walking in two more runs.
Four Lady Urchins had two hits, Callie Frazier, Ashley Leach, Hardy and Castillo. Emily Cook, Lauren Coggin, Kayla Turner and Amber Cook each had two hits for Myrtle.
East Union will play at Ingomar on Thursday and each of the county schools and New Albany will be in action on Saturday, participating in the Robertson's Sportswear Tournament at BNA Bank Park.

FORT WORTH – The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure suffered as a result of the Planned Parenthood backlash, but nearly 11,000 runners and survivors hit the pavement for the cause.
Last year 13,800 people took part in the run. That number is down and so is the funding.
Despite the dip in numbers, the Fort Worth run saw a slight gain in participants in the last week.
Participants said it was more about the cause than the controversy.
The oldest registered breast cancer survivor, Lydia Walden, participated in the race.

BERKELEY ""mdash; UCLA men's basketball coach Ben Howland threw a man-to-man defense at California, a zone defense, a mix of the two and stopped just short of throwing the kitchen sink.
Nothing worked in the Golden Bears' 85-69 blowout win Saturday at Haas Pavilion. The loss gave the preseason conference favorite Bruins (7-7, 0-2 Pac-12) their first two-loss start in conference play since the 1987-1988 season and put a damper on celebrating the new year.
"Everybody will be in their room asleep or watching film (tonight)," sophomore guard Tyler Lamb said.
UCLA was once again within one point at halftime, just as it was against Stanford two days earlier. That in itself was a small victory, as Cal (12-3, 2-0) had shot a scorching 68 percent from the field.
It was no surprise that the Bears continued their hot shooting in the second half. Five quick points forced a Howland timeout less than two minutes into the half. Coming out of the huddle, the Bruins immediately turned the ball over and the Bears rolled off five more unanswered.
"To be that close (at the half) we were fortunate," redshirt sophomore forward David Wear said. "We knew coming out in the second half that we needed to really lock down on defense and focus. We just had some breakdowns and it was tough."
Even tougher to figure out was omnipresent Bears guard Jorge Gutierrez.
In his only game against UCLA last season, the senior from Mexico had torn up the Bruins for 34 points at Haas Pavilion. The 6-foot-3 all-Pac-10 first-teamer from a season ago did more of the same Saturday, scoring 16 points while darting inside the paint, undaunted by UCLA's massive front line. Gutierrez also had eight assists and two steals.
"He does what it takes to win," said Lamb, who at times matched up with Gutierrez on both ends of the floor. "He doesn't focus just on scoring. He's going to go out there and play defense, get assists and steals, and he's just an all-around team player."
With senior guard Lazeric Jones coming off a career-high 26 points at Stanford on Thursday, Gutierrez was tabbed to stop the Bruins' leading scorer. Jones shot just one-of-five from the field in the first half before leaving with an injured left ankle, the same one he hurt in practice early in the week.
Cal coach Mike Montgomery felt that Gutierrez neutralizing Jones was the key to the Bears' defensive effort.
"Jorge sets the tone," Montgomery said. "If he's able to take the head of the snake out, it makes it difficult if they're counting on a certain person to be a significant factor."
Jones, who had five points on two-of-seven shooting, six assists and four turnovers, saw it a differently.
"He's a good defender, but I didn't want to force any shots," Jones said. "You know when teams are scheming to stop you, and I didn't want to force shots."
Jones said he was comfortable deferring to the hot hand on the night, which was Lamb. Lamb had a career-night of his own, hitting his first five shots and finishing with 26 points, including five-of-seven 3-point shooting.
David Wear also set a career-high with 17 points. No other Bruin had more than eight.
UCLA kept up with Cal's offensive firepower for a half but couldn't sustain it for another 20 minutes. The Bears continued to hit shots, and the Bruins gave up their second-highest field-goal percentage of the season while the lead grew to as many as 24 points.
UCLA's defense was its undoing no matter what scheme it was in, a problem that will have to be rectified before another top conference foe in Arizona comes to the Honda Center on Thursday.
"Whether it was man or zone, (the Bears) were pretty consistent," Howland said. "They really executed and shot it well. … Our defense, it was the problem all day. (The Bears) just continued to score time after time."

Guest Star: "I'd Go With Maybach Music Group Over Everyone Else"
Thursday, Mar 21, 2013 12:50AM
[After an eventful, star-studded South by Southwest adventure this month, SOHH's highlighting urban music's rising stars whose consistent hustle and unique sound have taken them from regional buzz to online and street acclaim. In this exclusive series, we're connecting with artists who "Started From the Bottom." Today, Brooklyn's Troy Ave details his early grind and plans for the future.]
What sort of grind does it take to go from the local scene to a national forefront?
Alotta consistency, really. Constantly revaluating what you're doing and making it bigger and better. I even thought about that last night. I been havin' label meetings just tryna figure out which label I'mma go with. Right now I'm just holdin' out, tryna figure out what I'm gonna do with these next couple chess moves I got to make my stock rise even more. If it don't make sense for me to bust a move right now, then it don't. In most cases, you should stay independent as long as you can.
You've built a nice brand for yourself, why not remain indie?
There's things you can't do independent that you can do major if you have certain aspirations. But if you got all your ducks in a row when you go into the majors, you can have a lot of things set up that you'll see blossom later on.
Tell us what impact music festivals and similar live performances can do for an artist's career.
My shows be dope, but it's more so because of the energy, and me being a dope n*gga. If you just a fly n*gga and you do fly sh*t, I don't think you necessarily have to prep ... it's like knowin' how to dance - you got people that can dance naturally and you got people that gotta do the dance steps. One two, one two. You know what I mean? With me, I do my thing regularly, so with music festivals, it depends on what type of artist you are and your audience. The same people you see at the music festivals, you gonna hear about on the internet so it's more important to be in the streets and in the community with your music.
Do you have a dream collaboration?
Nah, not at all. If it comes along, it come along, but it's nobody that I'm like, "I really wanna get in the studio with them." My own sh*t is unique, man. I got my own unique sound. If I wanna collab, I collab with my artists. Like I really wanted to get in the studio with Pusha T, because he talk that lingo like I talk it and I believe it's authentic, so we got that out the way.
Tell us about your first major artist cosign.
My first major cosign would be Fabolous. That just developed from the friendship that we had and he seen what I was doin'. I wasn't even takin' rap serious until I started gettin' money and being successful. I was gonna have him on a song on Bricks in My Backpack 1, but then I was like it don't even make sense to have him on a song just yet because I was still tryna get my weight up and I didn't want to waste a feature. So I asked him to do the intro, and he was like, "No doubt." Got him on the intro and that was my first big cosign and that was dope.
Given the choice of Maybach Music Group, Young Money or G.O.O.D. Music, which label would you go with and why?
I'd go with MMG over everyone else. Don't get me wrong, if the G.O.O.D. Music or Young Money offer was right I would definitely consider it, but I think MMG fits more with my style of music. The front man of MMG is Rick Ross and the front man of Young Money is Lil' Wayne and that's totally different style wise and look wise. Kanye West is the front man of G.O.O.D. Music and me and him are totally different. You always feel like people won't relate to what you're doing, because they do sh*t that I be like, "Man I'd never do that." I wouldn't dress like this, or do a song about this - but to each his own, that's what makes them unique. But I would never do that, so if was to be aligned with somebody it would have to be somebody who I feel could relate to what I'm sayin'. You don't wanna be in a situation where you sayin' some ill sh*t and that label don't get it because they not from that or they don't relate to that.
Troy Ave, taken from the name of the block he grew up on in Brooklyn, has been buzzing in New York since 2004. Bringing heat in the form of hype songs with real lyrics, this high energy MC got music made by and for the streets. In 2003, he heard 50 Cent's first album and was inspired to pick up the mic. Since then he's dropped four mixtapes, which he sold over 70,000 copies of right out his trunk. In fact, his music has been so hot on the streets that he's the first unsigned rapper out of New York to get bootlegged. His biggest influences include 50 Cent, Master P, Lil' Flip, Young Jeezy and the late, great Notorious B.I.G. With a cinematic sound that paints a vivid picture, Troy Ave's music is autobiographical and he hopes to turn his hobby into a profession where he can build and add on.

It's official: Suppan is starting on Opening Day.
So, at least for a little while, Suppan will line up against other teams' #1 starters, and our #1 starter (presumably Gallardo) will go against guys further down in their teams' respective rotations.
This has generally provoked consternation--after all, Suppan is no one's ideal #1 starter, even for the {choose one: Royals, Pirates, Nationals, Orioles}.
However, my intuition told me this might be a smart move. I haven't really thought through the comparison, but it's similar to the somewhat counterintuitive finding that inconsistent starters are better than consistent ones, if we're comparing guys with average performance.
So I figured I'd drastically oversimplify the situation and run a monte carlo simulation to see what happens.
I'm going to walk through it step by step, but if you don't care about the process, just skip down to the boldface clause below.
First, let's assume that other teams line up their rotations in the typical fashion, and that our rotation lines up 5-1-2-3-4. (It doesn't matter at all whether I have the right order of 1-2-3, as we'll see in a moment.) Thus, every five games will look like this:
(Brewers SP vs. Opponent SP)
- game 1: #5 vs. #1
- game 2: #1 vs. #2
- game 3: #2 vs. #3
- game 4: #3 vs. #4
- game 5: #4 vs. #5
Next, let's come up with a distribution of possible outcomes. Again oversimplifying, let's pretend every #1 starter is equal, every 2, 3, 4 starter is equal, and every 5 starter is equal:
- #1 starter: equal chance of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 runs. (3.00 ERA)
- #2, 3, 4 starter: equal chance of 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 runs. (4.00 ERA)
- #5 starter: equal chance of 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 runs. (5.00 ERA)
Notice we're ignoring the effect of the bullpen. While those ERAs may be in the ballpark, having the same bullpen every night is going to bring the end result closer together. We're going to ignore that, because I don't want to write more than 30 lines of code.
From here on out, it's simple. We're going to go through the 5-game sequence listed above, randomly pick one of the five possible outcomes for each of the two pitchers, and see who wins. (Of course, there will be a lot of ties -- in those cases, we'll award half a win to each team.)
Running through the sequence 1 time (or even 1,000) doesn't give us a very good picture, since the rotation sequence doesn't have a very strong impact, and in a small number of runs, the results could simply reflect good or bad luck.
So I ran through the 5-game sequence two million times. In both the first million and the second million (the first million, of course, was the hardest), the team that used the #5 starter in game 1 won about 50.8% of the time.
Of course, if these hypothetical rotations matched up in the typical 1 vs. 1, 2 vs. 2 fashion, each team would win exactly 50% of the time.
My friends, Macha is crazy like a fox.
As noted, I've drastically simplified. Of course 2, 3, and 4 starters aren't equal, and of course no team will stay exactly on schedule all season long. (Even if they did, their 5th, 10th, 15th, etc., games wouldn't necessarily match up with ours.) Not every team has 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 starters equal to ours. And of course, the Brewers will not give up exactly 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 runs in equal numbers of Suppan's starts.
But the simple exercise gives us some insight into the result of the more complex real-world scenario.
The one thing I can think of that would negate the benefit would be the possibility that the "true" #1 (Gallardo) might end up with one or two fewer starts. That might not be the case (depending on off days), and it might be ok (if Gallardo's innings were to be limited anyway). But 50.8% probably means only one or two extra wins over the course of the season, and one fewer Gallardo start in favor of Suppan could well mean the opposite.

Lt. Gov. Murray spends final full work day in Westfield
Friday, May 31, 2013 3:54 PM EDT
Friday, May 31, 2013 4:55 PM EDT
WESTFIELD, Mass. (AP) - Lt. Gov. Timothy Murray said he had "mixed emotions" Friday as he attended his final cabinet meeting and prepared to depart the office he has held for nearly 6 1/2 years.
Murray announced last week that he was resigning to accept a job as president and chief executive of the Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce. His final official day as lieutenant governor is Sunday.
Before he steps down, however, Murray will serve one more brief stint as the state's acting governor while Gov. Deval Patrick makes a visit to Chicago on Friday and Saturday. His last scheduled public event was a tour of the Kosinski Farm in Westfield with Patrick on Friday.
"I have mixed emotions, but I'm excited about this unique opportunity for my family," Murray said, the Republican newspaper of Springfield reported.
The tour was used by the administration as a platform to announce $700,000 in grants for 11 agricultural projects. The grants, including one for a winery at Kosinski Farm, were made through a program that aids commercial farming on land that has been protected from development.
The lieutenant governor later attended a private meeting of Patrick's cabinet, also in Westfield.
After Sunday, Secretary of State William Galvin will be second in line to the governor's office and serve as acting chief executive when Patrick is out of the state. There is no provision in the state constitution to fill a vacancy in the lieutenant governor's office before the next state election.

Are you going through this life struggling with relationship problems, struggling with health problems, financial problems, addictions, or other difficulties? Who truly cares? We may have a family that does care about us, or maybe not. Can we receive real help, lasting help, from anyone, anywhere? Or is it just a patch, a respite from the problem that never really goes away?
Maybe the opposite is true. Things seem to be going quite well, you may not have many worries, but what worries you do have are pretty easy to live with. But there may be fears that problems are just around the corner. What will I face with my family, my spouse, my parents, my kids?
Do you wonder…
"What am I really doing in my life?" Does it matter what I have accomplished? What will happen to me when I leave this world? Where am I going, or am I going anywhere? Throughout history, these kinds of questions and others have been on the minds of many people.
Who really cares?
The greatest caregiver is God alone. He is the single most powerful being in the universe, obviously so, because He created the entire natural world- all that we see, and even what we can't see. Yet, He loves you and me individually. He cares about everything going on in your life.
God is not distant
He did not just make His creation and sit back and let it run wherever it might go. Instead, He watches over His creation and especially mankind, who is made like Him. Man is unique above any other creature on earth- made with a body, a soul and a spirit- no other being is made in this manner. This makes us special before Him. Man was His crowning achievement in His creation.
He has not left us, but we have left Him and drifted far away. In spite of our separation, He is vitally concerned about our well-being, both in this life and in the one to come. He is available to anyone who searches Him out in complete sincerity. He will show Himself to you. He can be found in the person of Jesus Christ- when we discover Jesus, we will know God.
Sunday Service - 10AM

to God, for He cares about you"

Light brown with a white head: slight malt lead into the brew but otherwise uninteresting and bland. Nothing really wrong with it, just a run-of-the-mill Bitter that lacked character or flavours worthy of pontification.

Ms. Dyrene Meekins
The staff and I are looking forward to providing a positive and exciting school experience for all students at Wilbur Cross School. During the school year, we will continue to focus on achieving academic excellence. In particular, we will work to improve student literacy and mathematical skills.
Also, we will concentrate on school safety and utilize PBIS to positively reinforce positve choices here at Cross. We are committed to teaching our children to respect each other and to respect the differences of others in our society.
We hope to have a successful year, and urge students "to do the right thing because it is the right thing to do." As Henry L. Doherty quotes, "Plenty of men can do good work for a spurt, and with immediate promotion in mind, but for promotion you want a man in whom good work has become a habit." We hope to see all students strive to make good work a habit which leads to great success.

Florida receives nearly $500,000 in federal grants to help fight mortgage modification scams
- 8:58 am Tuesday, September 6th, 2011 by Kim Miller

The money will be doled out to regional and local counseling agencies. Florida received the most money from the local allocation, with California earning the second highest amount at $367,433.

For the second time in three meetings this season, the New York Knicks defeated the Brooklyn Nets. This one had the biggest margin of the three games, as the Knicks prevailed, 100-86.
The Knicks improved to 19-6 with the win, and much of that credit can be given to Carmelo Anthony. Despite almost sitting the game out with an ankle injury, Anthony finished with 31 points.
Others stepping up for New York were Tyson Chandler, who tallied 16 points and 12 rebounds, and J.R. Smith, who came off the bench for 19 points.
The Nets were done in by a poor second half, in which they scored just 38 points. The loss on Wednesday was the third straight for Brooklyn, and drops its record to 13-12.
New York will now turn its attention to a home game against the Chicago Bulls on Friday. Meanwhile, the Nets take on the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday.
