How Many Triple Digit Summer Days Will We See? - 04/27/13
Let the air conditioners begin!
We all know what Texas heat is like. Even if you're not from Texas, you know what Texas heat is like. Triple digit temperatures are right around the corner but so far this spring, we have yet to see the mercury hit the century mark.
Many of you remember the summer of 2011 when we broke a record for the most 100+ degree days in a year. That number was 90. That shatters the previous record set in 1925 when we had 69 days of 100+ degree heat. Last year we received 35 days over the triple digit mark and our average is about 18.
My question to you is, how many do you think well see this year? If I were to base my judgment on the latest weather patterns, Id have to say wed be close to that 18 day average. There's been a lot of cloud cover lately and that usually helps keep the temperatures down. Most of that will change once the polar jet stream retreats back northward and the storm pattern goes with it. High pressure will likely build in and stick around this summer, but if we can keep it on a fluctuating pattern, we should be able to limit the amount of 100+degree days.

Mercedes drivers told to obey team orders in future
Jul.31 Mercedes' title-warring drivers have been told they must follow team orders over the remaining eight races of 2014. The Brackley based team moved to play down Lewis Hamilton's defiance in Hungary last Sunday, accepting that the Briton was right to refuse to let Nico Rosberg past. "Nico never got close enough to Lewis to make the move," said team boss Toto Wolff, "and we were ultimately comfortable with the decision Lewis made to hold position." In the official interview distributed by the German team this week, Wolff added that the pair "will continue to be free to race" for the rest of their 2014 title battle. But he also said that Mercedes'...

Impaled Nazarene
BiographyFinland's Impaled Nazarene refer to their blasphemous brand of eardrum damage as "nuclear metal," basically a crusty, Punk-infused version of Black Metal. Marked by raspy vocals, dark atmospherics, and relatively simple songwriting, their music evokes no imagery of galloping horses or mist-filled nights -- just plain, nihilistic rage.

Only one baseball team from Palm Beach County remains.
Park Vista hopes to celebrate again this weekend. (Photo by Bill Ingram)
Park Vista will fight to stay alive against Valrico-Bloomingdale in the Class 8A state semifinals on Friday at 1 p.m. The Cobras have never won a state title, but they are hoping to change that this weekend.
Here's some stuff to help keep track of the games in Fort Myers:
Here are the updated brackets: 8A, 7A, 6A, 5A, 4A, 3A, 2A, 1A.
Here is the complete schedule for this year's state tournament.
I'll be in Fort Myers following Park Vista's state tournament run, so make sure to follow me on Twitter for news and updates from the games.
If you are able to make it up to Fort Myers, admission is $9 per day at JetBlue Park.
Finally, here is what you need to know about Park Vista's matchup.
Class 8A state semifinals
Park Vista (26-3) vs. Valrico-Bloomingdale (20-9), Friday at 1 p.m.
After escaping a difficult region, Park Vista feels battle-tested as it enters the state tournament. It marks the Cobras' first appearance in the final four since 2011, when Park Vista fell to Jose Fernandez and Tampa Alonso in the state semifinals. The Cobras have advanced to the state tournament three times before this season, but they have only advanced to the state final once (2008). In other words, Park Vista, which has not won a state title, has not had much success in the state tournament.
But this year could be different, as the Cobras are nationally ranked and enter as the favorite to win the Class 8A state title. Out of the four teams remaining, Park Vista has the fewest losses with three, as Bloomingdale (20-9), DeLand (21-11) and Homestead-South Dade (21-6) have combined to post a 62-26 record. The Cobras are led by junior pitcher Austin Smith, who is 12-0 with a sparkling 0.30 ERA. Smith is expected pitch Friday, which is bad news for Bloomingdale. The Florida Atlantic commit doesn't throw 95 mph, but he can throw three pitches for strikes and also sports a .429 batting average. If you needed confirmation that he's ready for Friday's game, here it is.
Just waiting for Friday morning already pumped 😘⚾🙏💪💖

Just waiting for Friday morning already pumped 😘⚾🙏💪💖
— Auzzie Boy (@AustinS54489446) May 11, 2014
At the plate, the Cobras have been hot. Park Vista has scored six or more runs in six of its past seven games. Junior first baseman Joey Genord leads the way with a .400 batting average and a team-high 26 RBIs. But the key to the Cobras' lineup is leadoff hitter Matthew Mika. The speedster, who is hitting .420, will make opposing teams pay when he's on base. Mika has recorded an amazing 47 stolen bases this season.
However, Park Vista may be facing its toughest test against Bloomingdale. The Bulls are expected to start 6-foot-6 ace Logan Crouse. The Florida State commit is dominant, as he enters with a 0.69 ERA and 112 strikeouts in 80 2/3 innings this season. The right-handed pitcher touches the high 80s consistently.
If Bloomingdale has a weakness, it's at the plate. The Bulls have been held to two runs or less in 12 of their 29 games and are hitting .248 as a team. Junior Conrado Skepple is one of just two Bloomingdale hitters batting over .300, as he enters Friday's game with a .386 batting average and 14 RBIs.
Edge: Bloomingdale will need to keep it a low-scoring game to have a chance. Park Vista holds a big advantage with the bats, as the Cobras have scored 216 runs to Bloomingdale's 141 runs. Seven Park Vista batters are hitting over .300 to just two batters for Bloomingdale. In other words, the numbers say the Cobras will have an easier time scoring runs. But if Crouse starts for the Bulls, he has a chance to negate any advantage Park Vista has at the plate. I like Park Vista's chances with Smith on the mound, however. The combination of Smith and the Cobras' bats will lead them to the state championship game.

Of course, he was in considerable physical discomfort, and the emotional pain of leaving me behind was one of his most difficult trials. But what he was not suffering was the additional burden of advanced age.
The death of a young person is always hard to bear. It seems so unnatural for children of any age to not outlive their parents. However, recent experiences with the declining health of my 93-year-old mother cause me to consider that perhaps even worse than dying young is living to be very old, with little quality of life due to several serious ailments, but not being sick enough to leave this world. She actually told me that she knows more than a few people who would be very happy not to wake up tomorrow.

im trying to move the stove in my basement apartment into the corner against the wall so i can put a range hood above it to the outside. but im going to have to cut about 1' off the counter and cupboard. what kind of saw do i use so i can save the rest of the counter?? any other hints to save the piece of cupboard im cutting out??

Have you considered an unvented range hood? That way, it doesn't have to be on an outside wall. Unvented range hoods pull the air through a filter.
thank you. yes i considered a ductless one but the outside wall is right there and the main objective for me is to move the stove as whoever put it in wasnt really thinking. its in the walkway and you have to turn sideways to get by it.
You could use a handheld jigsaw equipped with a downcutting blade to cut the counter and cupboard. Put some painter's blue tape on top of the counter and then mark on the blue tape your cutline. Then, using the jigsaw, cut the line you just drew on the blue tape. Move slowly and allow the blade to do the work. When you're done cutting, pull off the blue tape this should help prevent a mark on your countertop.

Iron & Wine Announce Bluesfest 2014 Sideshows
Written by Greg Moskovitch on 17th September, 2013
Iron & Wine, vehicle for singer-songwriter Samuel Beam's deeply personal and poetic folk songs, have already been announced as one of the main draws for Bluesfest 2014, sharing the stage with John Mayer, John Butler Trio and more. Now Iron & Wine have announced that they will be playing two very special headline shows while Down Under.
Beam and co. will be playing one Sydney show at the famed Opera House and a Melbourne show at the equally iconic Forum Theatre. The highly-acclaimed Texas-native and his band will be delivering what is sure to be two intimate and splendorous performances, continuing a special bond that Beam has shared with Australian audiences for almost a decade.
His upcoming visit to Aussie shores will see him bring his latest album, Ghost On Ghost to life with a full band. The group have been touring extensively over the past few months and are poised and ready to share Iron & Wine's fifth full-length as well as the rest of his much-loved discography with Australian audiences.

Emergency personnel at the scene will collect an electronic pre-hospital care documents (e-PCD) and share with doctors even if the person refuses to be taken to a hospital. The data can be uploaded to the person's health record so that doctors still can see what happened at the call.
Approvals from the patients are required before their medical information being shared electronically. Currently, there are only half of the population in the Rochester area—or only about 850,000 people—have approved of the data sharing with authorised medical providers.
To use the e-PCD service, there is no additional cost to providers or EMS agencies. The service is essentially replacing either faxing the information or telling an emergency department or other physician.
Greece and Henrietta volunteer ambulance corps already piloted the service. Rural/Metrol, and Monroe Ambulance are now uploading the data into the health records.

by Big A on Nov.18, 2014, under Business Tools, Business Travel
Recently, the Chase Sapphire Preferred credit card, one of our highly recommend travel cards for Visa/Mastercard (see Terminal D's post) made a change to their introductory bonus point policy. Chase increased the spend amount from US$3,000 to US$4,000 in order for you to obtain your 40,000 bonus points.
This means you'll now need to spend $4,000 in the first three months to get the 40,000 bonus points.
Luckily, all other Chase Sapphire Preferred benefits remained the same:
- $95 annual fees (first year waived)
- 40,000 bonus points
- 5,000 additional points for authorized user
- 2x points on travel and restaurants
- No foreign transaction fees
This card must be getting popular with all the commercials you see online and TV. I recommend you get one now before it goes up again!
One2Free offers the best prepaid mobile data plan in Hong Kong
by Captain G on Jul.22, 2013, under Business Tools, Business Travel, Vacation
If you're visiting Hong Kong without a global roaming plan, buy a One2Free prepaid SIM upon your arrival at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG). One2Free, a subsidiary of CSL has the best prepaid voice and fastest mobile plan available. This is an update from my previous post where I said Peoples offering the cheapest prepaid mobile data plan in Hong Kong).
You can pick up a One2Free pre-paid SIM at the 7-Eleven or 1O1O (mobile phone shop) at HKG Terminal 1 Arrival Hall. The two shops are located in between Arrivals area A and B as indicated in this map:
One2Free has the following prepaid mobile data plans with speed of up to 7.2Mbps (around 4G speed):
Prepaid Plan
Approx. USD
Hourly Pass
Day Pass
7 Day Pass
30 Day Pass for 5GB
To signup for one of the plans listed above, you'll need to know One2Free's SMS codes. Below is a quick list of codes for your reference:
Note that you may get throttled to 3G speed once you have exceeded 1GB of data usage. However, One2Free's service will probably faster than your roaming plan. For your information, One2Free's voice rate is around HK$0.30 per minute and around HK$0.80 per SMS.
If you're an American, you should make sure your phone is unlocked before you leave the country. Check out Big A's tip here.
How to avoid expensive roaming charges while traveling abroad
by Captain G on Nov.09, 2012, under Business Tools, Business Travel, Vacation
Are you are a global traveler from the US who wants to be reached via your US mobile number while you are in a foreign country and do not want to pay roaming charges of US$2.50 per minute? Here are three simple steps to avoid paying excessive roaming fees to the likes of AT&T, Verizon and Sprint:
1. Sign up to a call forwarding service provider like: One Suite for a monthly fee ($2.95). The call forwarding service provider (One Suite) will assign you a US number that can be routed to any number in the world for a very low fee (i.e., no more than US$0.05 per minute).
2. Forward your US mobile number to the routing service provider.
There are two types of call forwarding services in the US: unconditional (*72) and conditional (*68 or *28). Unconditional call forwarding means all calls will go to the forwarded number and may carry extra charges by your mobile carrier (I know Sprint charges $0.20 per minute). I recommend conditioning call forwarding (when there's no answer or a busy signal) which is free and works just as well to avoid extra charges.
To forward your call using conditional forwarding, enter *68[415-867-5309] where 415-867-5309 is the number you received from your call forwarding service provider. This will tell your current mobile carrier to forward all your calls to 415-867-5309 when there's a busy signal or no answer. Your phone will be considered "off" by your mobile carrier which means all your calls will be forwarded to the call forwarding number. If you are on the Sprint or Nextel network, you will need to use: *28 instead of 68. If you're on Verizon, you may have to use *71.
Click on this link for more information on call forwarding codes.
NOTE: Execute this step before you leave the US so you are not incurring voice roaming charges while abroad.
3. When you're abroad, purchase a pre-paid SIM card from a local carrier. Login to your call forwarding service provider's website and forward the assigned number [415-867-5309] to the pre-paid SIM card [+52-55-9876-5432] you have just purchased.
Below is a diagram to illustrate the three simple steps.
This process may seem a bit complicated compared to a service like Skype. However it is reliable and you don't need to give out another US number to your current contacts. The rates are also very affordable and it's the easiest way to keep your US number while you're traveling abroad.
When you've returned from your trip, simply go on your phone and hit *81 or *38 (for Sprint) to deactivate unconditional forwarding mode.

By the way, I should not have used the term Kappy. I kow it is spelled differently in the movie, but now I can't stop thinking about flying an F-16 into a country that is obviously Iran but isn't Iran to save my dad from the prison there.
I also realize that said movie is not in my collection and that this is not right. Now I have to wait two days for it to get here from Amazon because Best Buy has stopped selling awesome old movies.
I may have to watch Best of the Best tonight to tide me over. De Han is going down.
I am full of middle class white dude issues today.
I don't get the sense that many believe this year's 49ers are as legit a contender as the Falcons, Packers, Giants, Bears (when fully healthy), or even the red hot Bucs or Saints. They've become a bit forgotten about, mostly because of the ho hum perception of Alex Smith. This is a game that could rekindle some juice in the 49ers chances if Kaepernick looks like the QB that can propel them to take the next step.

You -----> Age 17
"So that is why, ____-chan, you will be going to the Hyuuga compound to assist Neji in whatever he needs" Gai sensei explained, you and Tenten both groaned,
"Why does she get to do it?" Tenten whinned, you rolled your eyes,
"For once i agreee with bun head" you grumbled, Tenten glared at you but nodded in agreement,
"No, we want Neji to get better, so ____-chan will be going" he stated in a 'there's no room for argumment' tone, you sighed and shrugged,
"Whatever, i'll go" you agreed, Tenten looked like smoke was going to come out of her ears. You chuckled slightly as you walked towards the Hyuuga compound. Stopping at the gates you looked blankly at the pale eyed man before you,
"State your business please" he said, not rudely, actually nicely, but with autority. You just smiled and shook your head,
"I'm looking for Neji, he's sick and i've been sent to care for him" the man nodded and pressed a button,
"We need an escort to bring Ms." he motioned for you to say your name,
"_____ _____" you said, he nodded
"_____ _____ to Neji Hyuuga" there was a muffled reply and the gate opened, a woman in a purple kimono was standing there, a graceful smile on her face, her dark hair was tied loosly in a bun. She motioned for you to follow her, you nodded and followed quietly. You looked around as you walked, smiling at the beautiful compound, why had you never been here before? You were decent friends with Hinata, and hell you were Neji's team mate. You could bet Tenten had been here, but why did that matter? You sighed and kept going, following her to a small house at the edge of the compoud. It was much different then the rest of the houses, it didn't look as well kept, still nice, but different.
"Here you are" she said politely, "Master Neji's house" you nodded and smiled,
"Thank you" you replied and she smiled, scurrying away. You walked hesitantly to the door, knocking once. No answer. Twice. No answer, you growled and knocked repeatedly, very hard, you could hear it echo. Suddenly, the door flew open, a shirtless, very sick looking Neji stood in the door way,
"What" he hissed, you took a step back at his tone of voice,
"Gai sensei sent me to take care of you.." you mumbled, pushing him out of the way lightly, noticing how he stumbled backwards. You shrugged and walked up the stairs and down the hall, seeing an open door, you walked in and saw kleenex bunches on the floor near the trashcan, very few actually in the bin. The bed sheets were scattered and empty ramen bowls were on the tabel. He followed you in and plopped down on his bed,
"I don't need anyone to take care of me" he said, his voice was raspy and sound deeper then normal. You sighed, he started coughing, and soon, his eyes changed, his bayakugan activated. you laughed
"Dude, your eyes activate when you cough?" he growled,
"Or sneeze or move" he spat, you covered your mouth to muffle the giggles. He glared at you, de-activating his eyes,
"I don't need anyone to take care of me" you mocked him, he sighed and put his face in his pillow,
"Just get out" you shook your head, even though you knew he couldn't see it. You laughed,
"I'm not leaving, and you're still sick, tell me how i can help" you said with a smile and thumbs up, you heard him groan, but saw him smile into his pillow. He sighed,
"Can you clean this mess up?" he asked, his voice hoarse, he coughed and you nodded, refraining from laughing when his eyes activated. You quickly went to work around the room. Picking up dirty clothes and putting them in the hamper, bringing dirty bowls into the kitchen, and finally, picking up old tissues and throwing them out, emptying the trash can after and placing it back. You smiled and the resting Neji who looked ready to pass out,
"Go to sleep" you said, he nodded drowsily and layed his head on the pillow, and before you knew it, he was out. You smiled and brushed a peice of hair out of his face. Your fingers grazing his forehead as you did so. You yanked your hand back quickly though, feeling how warm it was. You quickly went into the bathroom and ran a cloth under cold water. Wringing it out and folding it, placing it on the sleeping Hyuuga's forehead. Then, you sat down in the corner of his room, and waited.
"____-chan" A groggy voice spoke, shaking you lightly, your eyes fluttered open and you noticed the room was dark around you now. Neji stood above you smirking,
"If you wanted to go home, you could've left" he said, you noticed the colour had returned to his face, he looked well.
"I don't abandon my mission, and hey, you look much better" you said, barely trusting your voice, now only realizing how close the two of you were and how little clothes he was wearing.
"I am, i guess Gai-sensei sent a nurse a little too late" he said with a chuckle. You nodded, standing up and heading for his bedroom door,
"Wait" you turned and looked at him expectantly, "You can't leave now, it's the middle of the night" you sighed and looked at the clock on his bedside table, ssure enough it read 1:37am. You yawned and nodded, but remembering your past walk through of Neji's house,
"Uhh, how will that work Neji-san?" you asked tirredly, he looked around,
"You can have the bed" he said, you shook your head,
"You were sick you shouldn't be givin-" he cut you off,
"Then i guess we're sharing the bed" he said with a sigh, but there was a hint of happiness in his voice, you just shrugged,
"Fine." you crawled into bed, making sure to keep your distance, and fell asleep quickly.
~When you wake up~
You snuggled closer to the warmth that surrounded you, but hearing a chuckle your eyes snapped open. Seeing your arms around Neji's tors and his around yor waist. Your head resting comfortably on his chest.
"Did you know you hug things in your sleep ____-chan?" Neji asked with a smirk, you felt your face heat up and shook your head, for once at a loss for words.
"S-sorry" you stuttered nervously, seeing how shirtless he was, he just chuckled.
"It's not problem, if i'm being honest, that was one of the best sleep i've had in weeks." he admitted softly, you smiled shyly, what was that supposed to mean? "I like you ___...alot" he said, as if answering your thought,
"It wasn't a thought, you said it out loud" he laughed, you cursed. "So...what do you say?" He asked. You looked into his lavender eyes and found youraelf seeing why Tenten adored him so much. Neji was a very attractive boy-man. And he liked you, and you were starting to think you liked him.
"I'm not going to tell you i love you, because i don't. But i have a feeling i will" you said with a smile. Thus began your happily every after!

New Londonderry church construction ahead of schedule
A member of Orchard Christian Fellowship writes a personal message of faith on the interior wall of the congregation's new Pillsbury Road church on a recent Sunday. (COURTESY)
On Friday morning, around 60 members of the Orchard Christian Fellowship stood on the sidewalk, watching in silence as construction crews hoisted the church steeple onto the building's roof. Construction on the 5,800-square-foot church, which is located next door to the town's Historic Society complex on Pillsbury Road, began in early December.
Pastor Ken Glazier said the goal is for the 325-member congregation to move into its new home by July 1, though with the project coming along way ahead of schedule, that day might come somewhat sooner.
Project manager Steve Miron of Northpoint Construction in Hudson said that despite the snowy winter, things are coming along quite well. Miron said the 25-member construction crew has made significant progress.
Glazier said his congregation, which currently holds its Sunday worship services and Christian education programs at Matthew Thornton Elementary School, continues to grow.
On a recent Sunday, parishioners entered the new building with Sharpie markers in hand, leaving heartfelt personal messages and their favorite Bible verses on the building's interior walls.
"We're beyond excited to finally have a permanent place to call home," Glazier said.
Parishioner Lee Carvill, who serves on the church building committee, said the finished facility would seat up to 300 people and also feature a lobby area, an office and a nursery.
Orchard Christian Fellowship was formed in 2008, after a group of parishioners split from the nearby Londonderry Presbyterian Church to form its own congregation.
Updates on the construction process will be posted regularly on the church's Facebook page, The Orchard.

I get daily spam in Windows Live Mail, as most people probably do. It goes to the junk folder and I empty it every few days. But for the past few days Im getting several (up to 10) spam mails from Max Gentleman. I could just ignore it and continue to empty folder as Im doing, but its annoying to see 10 or more identical emails from this so and so! Anything I can do?

Consider "Mailwasher" which can be configured with filters to delete particular mail without you ever having to download it.

Looks like a handy tool but only covers one e-mail address.You have to buy the Pro version if you have more than one.
It is a pity Windows live mail does not give you the option of banning unwanted mail so that you do not get it in the first place.
You can add sender to the blocked senders list but you still get the e-mails.

It depends on your ISP but you may be able to set up a filter through webmail to put such e-mails into junk before they are downloaded to you through your e-mail client. I did this with Orange and it was quite effective. You need to check the junk there occasionally to make sure that it really is junk/spam. These folders should also automatically empty after a set period.

Under the "Junk" logo, can't you just tick "Add sender to blocked sender list"?

I was getting inundated with these as well. A simple solution is to use Outlook to access all of your email accounts. Then configure a rule to PERMANENTLY DELETE all messages with MAX-GENTLEMEN in the subject line and apply it to ALL ACCOUNTS. Then you won't see them anymore and won't have as much garbage to sift through. You can edit this rule to include other keywords in the subject line that are definitely spam.

Nice hotel comfortable bed and pillowsPosted Nov 17, 2014
I really enjoyed this hotel. The staff was nice. I felt welcomed the moment we pulled up. The stay was nice. The only downfall is the parking. It's $14 for self parking and $16 for valet for each time you park not just for the day. The first 15 minutes are free. The valet attendant was really nice. I just don't think it's worth paying $125 for a hotel room and parking isn't included.

You are the King!Posted Nov 8, 2014
Pros: The staff, service and facility were excellent!
Location: The location is great. Very close to the airport. Plenty of restaurants and shopping in the area. Need help getting getting around, ask the staff!
This hotel is a step above. The staff will take care of your every need and will provide as no other hotel. The only reason it is not perfect is I thought the bath room was a little small. Maybe this was only that my expectations were to high. I will most certainly stay here anytime I am in Orlando.

Local Film by Planned Parenthood featured in Sarasota Film Festival
Date: March 25, 2013
by: Mallory Gnaegy | A&E Editor
According to Jake Peterson, College freshman girls are easy, but sometimes they need a little Boost. Peterson is a fictional character representative of that good-looking college guy that gets what he wants.
"Boost" is a short film by SOURCE Productions from Planned Parenthood of Southwest and Central Florida. It's based on a true story focusing on sexual assault on college campuses; one out of five college women are raped during their college years. It will premiere at Sarasota Film Festival 11:30 a.m. Wednesday, April 10. April is fitting because it's Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
"Boost" was written and directed by KT Curran. SOURCE Productions is a theater, film and video company founded by Planned Parenthood of Southwest and Central Florida with the tagline "Real Life. Real Theatre."
