My Reasons for Reporting This

Home Again
Finally got home around ten thirty last night. The flight from San Diego was fantastic. We flew JetBlue, which allowed me to catch up on Kathy Griffin's "My Life on the D List." I realize, watching her life, that if that's the D List, I must be somewhere around P or Q. I don't have assistants. I don't play big theaters. I don't regularly have cosmetic surgery. I'm flying coach on JetBlue and counting myself lucky. Not to mention that she gets to host the gay porn awards, whereas I simply have to watch it on TV like every other gay porn loving schmo.
Anyway, thanks to Kathy, the flight was uneventful and pleasant.
Imagine my surprise when I got home to discover all the locks had been changed, my wife and kids were gone, and the dog had no water. I thought, "Either this is a very good practical joke or my family has deserted me, and left no water for the dog." The first thing I did was pop a frozen pizza into the oven (JetBlue does not offer meals), and then tried to figure out what was what. Turns out it was just a practical joke. My wife and kids were at her lover's house, and when they got home I gave everybody big hugs, followed by spankings all around and lots of inappropriate cuddling and cooing. All in all, a great way to return home after a long trip on the road.
And the pizza was delicious.

Rules of the CHIditarod
Planning to race? Know the rules. Bending them could get you DISQUALIFIED.
Who can race?
Anyone and everyone should race, provided you are at least 21 years old. Spread the word by forwarding this web site to anyone you know.
Does weather affect the race?
Absolutely not. The race goes off rain or shine, blizzard, breeze or tornado. In 2006 it was 50 degrees and sunny. In 2007 and 2008 it was snowing. In 2009 it was 39 degrees and raining. What does this mean? Two words: Be prepared! There is no bad weather, just poor wardrobe choices.
What is this going to cost me?
Your dignity. Plus an entry fee. Check out our pricing and registration info. One of the best things about the CHIditarod is that there are tons of ways to participate and win. See our prizes page for the latest information on how you can be a winner with the CHIditarod.
How do I register?
Please visit our registration page and follow all instructions carefully. Don't jeopardize your chances of racing because you didn't read all of the instructions. Registration is limited to 170 teams and closes on February 15. There will be NO race-day registration.
What's the race route?
That's up to you. Each team receives a timecard & map of checkpoints they must go to in the order listed and not skip any checkpoints. Checkin the day off starts at 9:45am and closes at 11:45am. The epic start to the race is at 12:30 pm SHARP. Each team chooses its own path between the start, each of the checkpoints, and the finish. Your team will stay at each checkpoint for 25 minutes before continuing on your journey.
What is good food to donate?
The Greater Chicago Food Depository requests that you please do not bring items in glass jars or any kind of candy or toiletries. They request these types of food items: grains, pasta, cereal, canned fruit and vegetables, beans, peanut butter, canned tuna, shelf stable milk (does not need to be refrigerated), canned soups, jelly (remember no glass jars), chili, macaroni & cheese. All items need to be non-perishable and shelf stable.
Should we also wear costumes?
Absolutely. Definitely. Creativity is a huge part of this event. Wild costumes and insane themes are not required per se, but wholly encouraged. The first rule of CHIditarod is… fun is mandatory. 95% of all teams have costumed themes. It's epic. Pure street theater. Google around for past photos and inspiration!
Racing Rules
General Team Rules
- Teams consist of exactly 5 people. The carts must be pulled doggie-sled style: four people in front with ropes pulling the cart (the dawgs), and one person running behind the cart steering (the musher). This configuration represents the theoretically ideal power-to-steerage ratio of 4:1, and must be observed at all times.
- Dawgs and mushers are free to trade off at the checkpoints. All team members must finish together – no stray dawgs! (Of course dawgs and musher may run free while they're being watered at the checkpoints.) There will be Bike Marshals along the route to ensure proper form, function, and of course, safety.
- No facemasks at the starting line, checkpoints, or finish line.
- No assisted movement other than your own feet (sorry roller derby girls – we still love you).
Can we try to prevent other teams from winning? i.e. SABOTAGE?
Maybe. You MUST READ the Sabotage Rules for the full schtick.
Can I SABOTAGE other teams?
This bears repeating…you MUST READ the Sabotage Rules.
The CHIditarod is a food drive — 60 pounds per cart is required!
In addition to being an outstandingly fun time, the CHIditarod is first and foremost a food drive. Your team must show up with 60 pounds of food or more to race in the CHIditarod!
Can we use public transportation?
No. That is cheating. Cheating is not allowed.
Can we use private transportation?
No. This occurred in 2007 by the Bunnies (there are hilarious photos). Be assured that this will result in immediate disqualification and public flogging.
Can I bring my real dogs?
No…please, no.
Should I obey city traffic laws?
You should obey all applicable traffic and civil laws. Unless you want to become one with your cart and/or the concrete and/or the back seat of a police van, that is. Good luck!
Who has the final say?
The judges have final say over all prizes and winners. This is complete and final. Judges have sole discretion over all points awarded or deducted, prizes awarded, which prizes are being awarded, race rules, all laws of physics, what time it is, and what happened in the past, all of which are subject to change without notice.
Leave No Trace
Each team must complete the race in the order specified on their route map (received the morning-of at registration). When you arrive at your checkpoint, 4 team members must be there to checkin. Check in with the cart wrangler who has a bright yellow/green safety vest on. They will have something for you. You will need this something to finish your checkin at the bar. Once you receive this special something, go inside and hand this special something along with your race card and give it to the checkin person (look for a computer).
At every bar there are fun contests for you and your teammates to participate in them. These are not required but a large piece of the fun and excitement about CHIditarod. We HIGHLY recommend you participate.
Yes, you read that right… bribes. Checkpoint volunteers love being bribed for numerous amounts of things. No volunteers at CHIditarod, bike marshals included, can require a team to bribe them, BUT! bribes do help grease the wheels of the volunteers.
Does my team need to bring its own shopping cart?
Yes. Read more about carts in the FAQ.
What do I do with my cart after the race (e.g. the CART DEPOSIT)
LEAVE NO TRACE! Pack it in, pack it out. Your cart is your responsibility. Take the cart back to a supermarket. Donate it. Gift it. Just don't abandon it. There were teams in both 2007, 2008 and LOTS in 2009, and a shameful bunch in 2010, 2011 and even 2012 that did NOT take care of their carts, and that's why we require a $80 cart insurance deposit which you must pay during registration. The New York organizers for a similar event faced a $5,000 fine in 2006 due to race entrants not accounting for their carts. So please, do the right thing, respect our sanity, and TAKE YOUR CART HOME with you after the race. Don't lose any instructions you receive.
During check-in you will receive a Bib Number. You MUST attach this bib number to the front of your cart. Plan for this.
Modifying and Decorating your Cart
Please do. Everyone does. There are some rules — kind of like stock car racing — and they differ slightly depending on whether or not your team chooses the Racer or Art Cart category. The following rules apply to BOTH shopping carts and Art Carts:
- All designs must be made with full regard to both safety and all relevant civil, criminal, and physical laws.
- All carts need to fit onto the sidewalk (this is a pedestrian race).
- All four "dawgs" must pull the cart with ropes of some sort.
- In case of deep snow or treacherous ice, you can attach some sort of sled substructure to the bottom of the cart.
- You can attach things to your cart, make a riding platform, and grease up your wheels.
- You can also chop up the cart and rearrange the pieces — but they all have to be attached somewhere else on the cart. All original pieces must be accounted for.
The following rules apply ONLY TO RACER (REGULAR) SHOPPING CARTS:
- Your shopping cart cannot be motorized, nor can you use any type of bike/pedal structure for propulsion.
- You must use a normal-sized cart, i.e. not one of those baby carts from Whole Foods.
- Your shopping cart must roll on at least 4 normal cart-sized rubber caster wheels.
- Your cart should be able to fit (with whatever effort necessary) through a regular front-door-sized opening.
The following rules apply ONLY TO ART CARTS:
- Art Carts don't have to fit through a standard-size door frame.
- Art Carts can use non-standard wheels and different sized carts.
- Art Carts can have mechanical aspects, but can not have mechanical propulsion.
- You have "roaming privileges", meaning you aren't required to hit EVERY checkpoint. You may be required to hit certain checkpoints (your race card will tell you).
- You cannot win any prize based on race time, finishing position, or sabotage. However, you can win other prizes and there is a special prize for Best Art Cart.
- You cannot sabotage. Period. Unless you like disqualification.
- You still have to bring the required poundage to the starting line, start the race with everyone else and cross the finish line at a reasonable time.
- You still need to register and do a cart deposit like everyone else.
- Admission into this category is not automatic and requires judges' approval. There will be a cap on the number of Art Cart participants in this category. If you are interested, register ASAP with a description of your Art Cart idea in the comments box and we'll get back to you with the judges' decision on inclusion. If your entry for an Art Cart is denied, you can re-apply or race traditionally. Remember, registration is first-fully-completed, first-served.
- To save our sanity, we will stop processing Art Cart registrations EARLY. No Art Carts will be admitted the day of the race without prior registration.

Monsanto's Still Planting for the Future
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- There's never a dull moment in the world of Monsanto (MON). When the company is not being publicly crucified for its genetically modified seeds, controversy spreads about the company's ethics and what many believe to be Monsanto's unfair pricing tactics.
These (among other things) have soured Monsanto's relationship not only with the farmers that rely on its seeds, but also with consumers who buy the produce.
However, even with all of the public bickering, investors who have planted their faith in Monsanto have not gone hungry. That the stock has posted gains of more than 17% on the year is a testament not only to strong management team, but also the extent to which Monsanto has differentiate its products from rivals DuPont (DD) and Syngenta (SYT). I don't believe investors will get a better chance to get in on this dominant agriculture company than on this recent pullback.
As of this writing, the stock is down more than 5% from a high of around $109 per share in May. The stock has taken a slight hit because not only did Monsanto report a worse-than-expected loss for its fiscal fourth quarter on Wednesday, but management also provided guidance that was below Street expectations. Investors have -- understandably -- become anxious. But I don't believe it's time to panic.For instance, even with the 1.5% decline in overall revenue, sales of cotton seeds more than doubled to $65 million. What's more, that the Agriculture business continue to pose year-over-year double-digit gains (up 13.6%), management has plenty of time to shore up weakness in areas like soybeans. While it's true the company did report a higher operating loss, it's worth noting here that the fourth quarter has always known to be a seasonally weak period for the company. To that end, those who are now proclaiming that Monsanto is "getting what it deserves" have to do a better job of explaining that actually means. Clearly, there are many who will disagree with me on this, but the way I see it Monsanto has always had a strong business.

ASMET Lessons
Recent ASMET lessons are online and on CD. Earlier lessons are available on CD only. To obtain a CD, email email@example.com.
ASMET 7 (2013, English with French forthcoming, online and CD)
Three aviation weather case studies aimed at improving aviation forecasting in Africa. The case studies also support COMET's Review of Aeronautical Meteorology – Africa online learning curriculum, which provides training that supports the WMO/ICAO competencies for Aeronautical Meteorological Forecasters. The lessons are intended for aviation forecasters, general weather forecasters interested in aviation meteorology, and meteorological forecasting instructors and students.
Forecasting Fog For Aviation: Kenya Case Study
- This lesson aims to improve aviation forecasts of fog in the African airspace by teaching forecasters to make more accurate forecasts using satellite imagery, numerical weather prediction, and other available data. A process for diagnosing and forecasting fog is presented and applied to a case over the Nairobi, Kenya region. Learners assume the role of aviation forecaster, analysing various products to determine whether the current Terminal Aerodrome Forecast (TAF) is valid or needs to be amended.
Convective Weather and Aviation in West and Central Africa
- The hazards associated with convective systems present some of the most dangerous conditions encountered by aircraft and pose many challenges to aviation operations. When convection is forecast to develop, aviation forecasters are required to issue a series of warning messages and other meteorological aeronautical products to various members of the aviation community. This lesson teaches these forecasters how to produce the products, doing so in the context of a case study in which learners assume the role of aeronautical forecaster on duty at the airport in Niamey, Niger on a night when convection develops.
Detecting Clear Air Turbulence: South African Case Study
- Turbulence is a major concern for the aviation industry. It often goes undetected in cloud-free areas, catching pilots off guard when they fly into it. Turbulence can injure passengers and crew, and cause structural damage to aircraft. This makes it critical for aviation weather forecasters to closely monitor the atmosphere for signs of turbulence and issue special warnings when it is likely to be present. This lesson helps prepare forecasters for these tasks by providing general information about turbulence and showing them how to detect it using satellite imagery, tephigrams, and NWP products. The latter is presented in the form of a case study in which learners assume the role of aviation forecaster at Cape Town International Airport (South Africa), and need to determine if turbulence is likely to be present along a particular flight path.
Basics of Visible and Infrared Remote Sensing, online version of ASMET 1, which was published on CD in 1997, English with French forthcoming, 2014
This lesson presents the scientific and technical basis for using visible and infrared satellite imagery so forecasters can make optimal use of it for observing and forecasting the behaviour of the atmosphere. The concepts and capabilities presented are common to most international geostationary (GEO) and low-Earth orbiting (LEO) meteorological satellites since their inception, and continue to apply to both current and newer satellite constellations. The lesson reviews remote sensing and radiative transfer theory through a series of conceptual models. Discussions contain explanations of the different Meteosat First Generation imager channels and the phenomena that they can monitor individually and in combination. This lesson is an online version of the first ASMET lesson published on CD in 1998, ASMET 1: Satellite Meteorology in Africa. While the images have not been updated, the concepts are fundamental and remain relevant today. Most of the images are from Meteosat and depict weather conditions over Africa, although some GOES imagery is included as well.
ASMET 6 (2011, English and French, online and CD)
Satellite Precipitation Products for Hydrological Management in Southern Africa / Les Produits satellitaires de précipitation pour la gestion de l'hydrologie en Afrique Australe
- This lesson introduces a variety of meteorology and hydrology products that can improve the quality of heavy rainfall forecasts and assist with hydrological management during extensive precipitation events in Southern Africa. Among the products are the satellite-based hydro-estimator and the ASCAT, SMOS, and ASAR GM soil moisture products. These are presented within the context of a case, the flooding of South Africa's Vaal Dam in 2009/2010.
- Ce modules montre divers produits météorologiques et hydrologiques susceptibles d'améliorer la qualité des prévisions de fortes précipitations et d'aider à la gestion hydrologique lors des épisodes de précipitations à grande échelle en Afrique Australe. On retrouve parmi ces produits, ceux extraits de ASCAT, SMOS, ceux d'humidité du sol ASAR GM et l'hydro-estimateur. Les produits sont présentés dans le cadre d'une étude de cas sur les inondations dans la région du barrage de Vaal en Afrique du Sud.
Flooding in West Africa / Inondations en Afrique de l'ouest
- The rainy season in Sahelian West Africa extends from June to September and is tied to the position of the intertropical front. During this period, mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) often produce significant rainfall that can lead to flooding. This lesson examines an extreme flooding event that occurred in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso from 31 August to 1 September 2009. Learners assume the role of forecaster, assessing meteorological conditions to see if an MCS will develop that can lead to heavy rain and flooding. They follow a forecast process that emphases the use of satellite data, standard surface and upper-air charts, and model output. The forecast process is tied to a conceptual model of the key features that drive convective activities in West Africa.
- En Afrique de l'ouest, dans la zone sahélienne, la saison des pluies s'étend de juin à septembre et est liée à la position du front intertropical. Au cours de cette période, les systèmes convectifs de moyenne échelle (MCSs) génèrent souvent des précipitations significatives susceptibles de conduire aux inondations. Ce module présente un cas d'inondations graves qui s'est produit à Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso du 31 août au 1er septembre 2009. Au cours de cette étude, l'apprenant jouera le rôle de prévisionniste. Il évaluera les conditions météorologiques pour voir s'il était possible de prévoir le développement d'un MCS à même de conduire aux fortes pluies et aux inondations observées. A cet effet, il suivra une méthode de prévision basée sur l'utilisation des données satellitaires, des cartes standards de surface et d'altitude ainsi que des sorties de modèle. Cette méthode de prévision est liée à un modèle conceptuel des principaux éléments qui gouvernent les activités convectives en Afrique de l'ouest.
2009 Drought in East Africa / La sécheresse en Afrique de l'Est en 2009
- The lesson examines the 2009 drought in the Greater Horn of Africa (GHA), focusing on conditions in Kenya. The lesson begins by reviewing drought conditions in the years leading up to 2009. From there, it examines the seasonal climate forecast for the beginning of 2009 and sees what it portends. Satellite products are used to study rainfall performance throughout the year and its impact on the drought situation. Finally, the lesson describes the climate oscillations that can impact drought in the GHA and identifies patterns that were present in 2009 and contributed to its severity. By the end of the lesson, weather forecasters and students should have a better understanding of drought and the tools available for its early detection and monitoring.
- Ce module examine la sécheresse de l'année 2009 dans la Grande Corne de l'Afrique (GCA) en mettant un accent particulier sur les conditions observées au Kenya. Le module commence par un passage en revue des conditions de sécheresse des années précédentes jusqu'à la situation de 2009. La prévision climatique saisonnière pour le début de 2009 est ensuite examinée afin d'en faire ressortir la tendance annoncée. Les produits satellitaires sont utilisés pour étudier l'évolution des précipitations au cours de l'année et son influence sur la sécheresse. Le module décrit en définitive, les oscillations du climat susceptibles d'influencer la sécheresse dans la Grande Corne de l'Afrique. Il identifie donc la situation météorologique observée en 2009, qui a contribué à la sévérité de la sécheresse. A l'issue de l'étude du module, les étudiants et les prévisionnistes auront une meilleure compréhension de la sécheresse et des outils disponibles pour sa détection précoce et sa surveillance.
ASMET 5: Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) Africa Case Studies (2010, English and French, online and CD)
- Secondary Lows Behind Frontal Systems
- Duststorms
- Cloud Clusters
These case studies teach forecasters how to use EUMETSAT Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) satellite data to forecast the development of secondary lows behind frontal systems, duststorms, and cloud clusters over Africa. Each set has a learning case that guides users through the forecast process and a practice case that lets users apply the process to a different set of weather conditions. The cases use ECMWF model data along with MSG data and emphasize the use of RGB products.
ASMET 4: Tropical Cyclones over the Southwest Indian Ocean (2006; English and French, online and CD)
This lesson has two sections:
- Background information about the genesis and development of tropical disturbances (TDs) in the SouthWest Indian Ocean, including the main features of tropical cyclones that affect that area, the stages of development of TDs, and the conditions conducive for the life cycle of a TD.
- A case study of Tropical Cyclone Hary, which occurred during the March 2002 tropical cyclone season over the SouthWest Indian Ocean. The lesson presents a process for forecasting the genesis and evolution of a TD using information issued by tropical cyclone forecast centres and guides users through applying it. Both satellite imagery and numerical weather prediction products are used.
ASMET 3: Combining Satellite Imagery and Model Output in Weather Forecasting (2001, English and French, CD only)
This lesson presents a process for combining satellite imagery and model output in weather forecasting.
The process is applied to two cases: one about the ITCZ and the other about easterly waves over Africa.
These features were chosen because of their significant domination of the weather dynamics over tropical Africa. Each case has two sections: a teaching portion, where users learn how to use model output and validate it with satellite imagery, and a practice portion where they apply the technique to a different situation.
ASMET 2: Integrating Satellite Imagery of the ITCZ into Analyses (1998, English and French, CD only)
This lesson presents a process for integrating satellite imagery into the analysis process. Emphasis is placed on the identification of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and its related features over tropical Africa in visible, infrared, and water vapour imagery. The satellite information is integrated with synoptic observations to construct analyses for surface, low-, mid-, and upper-level synoptic charts. With better initial analyses, forecasters should be able to improve their forecasting skills.
ASMET 1: Satellite Meteorology in Africa (1997, English and French, CD only)
This lesson presents the scientific and technical basis for using satellite imagery so forecasters and other users can develop locally and regionally useful techniques for observing and forecasting the behavior of the atmosphere. The lesson reviews remote sensing and radiative transfer theory through a series of conceptual models. The discussion contains explanations of the different imagery channels (visible, infrared, and water vapor) and the phenomena that the channels can monitor individually and in combination. The lesson contains imagery from EUMETSAT's Meteosat satellite and the U.S. Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) series.

|See also Henri Lavedan on Wikipedia; and our 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disclaimer.
LAVEDAN, HENRI LÉON ÉMILE (1859- ), French dramatist and man of letters, was born at Orleans, the son of Hubert Léon Lavedan, a well-known Catholic and liberal journalist. He contributed to various Parisian papers a series of witty tales and dialogues of Parisian life, many of which were collected in volume form. In 1891 he produced at the Théâtre Français Une Famille, followed at the Vaudeville in 1894 by Le Prince d'Aurec, a satire on the nobility, afterwards re-named Les Descendants. Later brilliant and witty pieces were Les Deux noblesses (1897), Catherine (1897), Le Nouveau jeu (1898), Le Vieux marcheur (1899), Le Marquis de Priola (1902), and Varennes (1904), written in collaboration with G. Lenôtre. He had a great success with Le Duel (Comédie Française, 1905), a powerful psychological study of the relations of two brothers. Lavedan was admitted to the French Academy in 1898.

.- The Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, remarked earlier this week that the Church "not only promotes the defense of the earth, water and air, which the Creator has given to all, but she is also especially committed to protecting man from destroying himself."
The cardinal made his comments during a Mass at an environmental protection congress. In his homily he quoted a passage from the encyclical, "Caritas in Veritate," in which Pope Benedict XVI points out how respect for human ecology in society leads to benefits for the environmental ecology as well.
"The Church considers the issues related to the environment and its protection as intimately linked to the issue of comprehensive human development," Cardinal Bertone stated.
For this reason he encouraged participants to contribute to "the construction of a world in which peace" is shared among all the inhabitants.

Late-Inning Miscue Allows Maryland Baseball to Beat Mason
March 25, 2008
The George Mason baseball team led Maryland 4-2 after six innings but three unearned runs in the seventh and an insurance run in the eighth allowed the Terrapins to rally and beat the Patriots at Spuhler Field, 6-4. Mason (9-12) was led by Chris Henderson, who was 2 for 4 with two RBI, Spencer Wiggins, who was 4 for 5 with an RBI and a steal, and Justin Bour, who was 3 for 4. Maryland (12-11) got two hits from Joe Palumbo and two RBI from Dan Benicj and Jensen Pupa.
With no one on and two outs in the first, Mason got back-to-back singles from Scott Krieger and Justin Bour and Ryan Soares was hit by a pitch to load the bases. But Mark Hill grounded out to end the threat leaving the bases loaded. Mason again loaded the bases in the second, this time as Ryan Uphouse had a one-out single and Spencer Wiggins and Chris Henderson had two-out singles to put three men on, but Scott Krieger grounded out to short to keep the game scoreless.
Despite the Patriots showing more in the early innings, it was Maryland that got on the board first. Steve Braun led off the inning with a single, Nick Jowers was hit by a pitch and Joe Palumbo's RBI single scored the game's first run. The Terrapins scored made it 2-0 when Jowers came home on a Jensen Pupa groundout.
Mason got a run back in the bottom of the frame when Mark Hill scored on a Josh Steinberg triple. In the fourth, Spencer Wiggins singled, stole second and went to third when catcher Chad Durakis' throw to second hit pitcher Brett Jones in the leg and bounced into foul territory between first and home. Wiggins scored on Henderson's ground out to first.
Brecko, meanwhile, pitched very much in control, allowing just four hits and one walk with one strikeout until he was hit on the pitching arm by Gerry Spessard in the sixth. Brecko departed with the bases empty and two outs and was replaced by Darren McLean, who got the final out of the inning. In the bottom of the sixth, Uphouse singled to center with one out, stole second and Brent Weiss followed with a single through the right side. Wiggins followed with a perfect suicide squeeze bunt to give Mason its first lead of the game. Chris Henderson doubled to right to bring home Weiss but Wiggins was thrown out at the plate at Krieger grounded out to end the inning with Mason ahead 4-2.
The lead didn't last long. In the seventh, Will Greenberg singled up the middle off the glove of Mark Hill, who moved from third to second to replace Soares after he was hit by a pitch in the fourth. Steven Braun followed with a tailor-made double-play ball but Brent Weiss rushed the throw and Greenberg was safe, going to third on the play with Braun advancing to second. Pinch-hitter Dan Benick followed with an RBI single up the middle to tie the score. Benick went to second on a sacrifice and scored on Pupa's single to left to put Maryland ahead, 5-4. The Terrapins used a pair of infield singles, a sacrifice bunt and a sacrifice fly in the eighth to make it 6-4.
The Patriots will be in action again tomorrow as their homestand continues. Mason will take on Liberty with first-pitch scheduled for 2:30 p.m.

Nevermind, Mark Regarding the shape of the car, when I first saw it I wasn't to sure about the shape. But in time have come to appreciate it. Possibly gives hints as to the forthcoming Gallarddo successor.

true. i prefer the styling of the older lambos like the miura, countach and diablo. what about the murcielago? do you like the styling?
I don't like it, it's trying WAY too hard. It looks like some kind of abomination that Reverie or Masonry would put out.
I like it but is it road legal? I seem to remember reading it won't be, if so DO NOT WANT.
I love the Murcielago LP640 and LP670-SV. But as much as I love Lambo, I cannot stand these pointless special cosmetic editions. They announced that they are going to build Indonesian Gallardo edition
Apart from the short back end, I likes it.

It'd be a bugger to wash
There's no replacement for displacement
I can't remember the last time I saw a car and thought it looked out of proportion and just plain wrong from nearly every single angle, so well done to Lamborghini!
I don't like it either. The first Gallardo has been their best go at a wee supercar so far imo. Keep the mad stuff for the V12s .

Dunkin' Donuts sandwich stuffs breakfast between a glazed doughnut
Updated On: Apr 04 2013 08:39:27 AM EDT
If you're a fan of doughnuts and breakfast sandwiches, you may like what Dunkin' Donuts has planned.
The restaurant is testing a glazed doughnut sandwich in Massachusetts.
Bacon and a fried egg with pepper are stuffed between the plain glazed doughnut.
A spokesperson for Dunkin' says it's mission is to offer a wide variety of products to satisfy their customers.
It's not the first doughnut sandwich, Paul Deen and Krispy Kreme have also had similar products.

Reading Buccaneers
The Reading Buccaneers are a senior drum and bugle corps based in Reading, Pennsylvania. They compete in the DCA circuit in the open class.
Organized in Reading in 1957 as a parade corps, the Bucs have been competing since 1958. They rose rapidly to national prominence, capturing three consecutive VFW national championships between 1960 and 1962, the last year that a VFW Senior Champion was named.
The Buccaneers were the first corps to be crowned DCA Open Class World Champions in 1965. They have since repeated ten times: in 1968, 1979, 1980, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2012. The corps has also placed second seven times (1973, 1974, 1976, 1984, 1985, 1999, 2001, and 2011) and third eight times (1972, 1975, 1977, 1981, 2000, 2002, and 2004). They have missed being a DCA finalist only twice.
At the end of every performance, the entire corps sings the corps song, "We're all Good Men."
- The Buccaneers hold the DCA record and tie the DCI record for the longest winning streak at 64 consecutive wins. The winning streak began with the first show of the 2005 season. The winning streak finally ended September 3, 2011, when the Buccaneers placed 2nd behind Minnesota Brass Inc.

Red Bull Racing could yet bill Renault for lost revenue such is the F1 team's unhappiness over the French manufacturer's issues.
Red Bull's latest title defense has been blighted by problems with their new Renault 1.6-litre turbocharged V6 engines.
Sebastian Vettel seems to have suffered the bulk of the issues with the German's most recent trials coming in Monaco where he was forced into retirement due to a turbo failure.
At the time a frustrated Christian Horner said "It is a Renault issue so I think you need to speak to Renault about that reason."
However, it won't just be journalists speaking with the French manufacturer as Helmut Marko says their accounts department will also be having a little chat at the end of this season.
The Red Bull advisor has revealed that Red Bull could bill Renault for lost revenue as the engine supplier is costing them valuable points and positions in the Constructors' Championship.
"It would be irresponsible to talk about the exact figure at the moment," he told Germany's Bild.
"But the list of losses due to problems with the Renault engine is long enough.
"The season is not yet finished but at the end of the Championship our finance department will assess the damage.
"That's when we can talk about the magnitude of losses due to Renault problems."
Meanwhile, Vettel says he is worried about running out of engines before the season is over.
This year drivers are limited to just five power units before they start to incur penalties. Vettel has already had three turbo issues.
"You can easily calculate that will not be enough," the four-times Champion told Auto Motor und Sport.

I'm sorry to say that for the past few years we have purchased pre-made pancakes and I was looking forward to making the pancakes from scratch this year and after a few failed attempts I made a nice pile of pancakes for us.
Darren even attempted to flip the last pancake I made, thankfully it didn't end up on the ceiling!
Last year Ethan quite enjoyed his first taste of a pancake, it was a classic lemon and sugar one. This year was a different story, Ethan has been very fussy with food lately but he took one bite and turned his nose up at it.
|Pancake Day 2012
Being prepared for the fact that Ethan would be fussy this year we also prepared a pancake filled with nutella, a banana (Ethan's favourite) and strawberries and cream which Ethan didn't touch.
We stuck to traditional sugar and lemon with strawberries and cream on the side.
We really enjoyed our pancakes, hopefully next year Ethan will enjoy it more...

How the Ryan O'Reilly contract affects Derek Stepan
Ryan O'Reilly was touted in various circles as a potential trade target for the Rangers during the team's recent poor stretch of form. That was until he signed back with the Avalanche via an offer sheet from the Calgary Flames. In the process, O'Reilly may have just caused a headache for the Rangers.
O'Reilly signed a two year, $10 million offer sheet from the Flames which the Avalanche were quick to match. In a nutshell, the talented fourth year Avs center is now making five million per year (cap hit) the next two years. Here's where the problems start. O'Reilly; statistics, position, style and age is very similar and thus a comparable to the Rangers' Derek Stepan. Stepan is about to become a restricted free agent this summer.

Performance measures must be carefully specified so that they truly measure the performance of accountable entities rather than other changes in a community's health. If the results are to be interpreted with confidence, careful development and testing are needed to ensure that the objectives are operationalized in a clear and unambiguous way. For the HEDIS (Health Plan Employer Data and Information Set) measures, for instance, substantial time and effort was required to develop precise definitions that make sense in a variety of managed care settings and are obtainable from readily available data files (NCQA, 1993). Even a measure that seems simple, such as the proportion of children at age 24 months who have received all of the recommended immunizations, requires agreement on which immunizations are recommended at what time, decisions about whether to include children who have not been covered by the health plan since birth, and so on.
Performance measures must be written in a statistically operational form. When they are not, it can be difficult to tell what progress is being made, even if all of the information is in hand. For example, Healthy People 2000 Objective 7.17 calls for local jurisdictions to have "coordinated, comprehensive violence prevention programs." Although a long list of attributes of coordinated and comprehensive programs is given in the text, no operational definition is provided by which to judge whether a particular jurisdiction's program is coordinated and comprehensive. It would be better to identify a small number of performance indicators connecting accountable entities to specific actions, as illustrated in the committee's prototype violence indicator set (Appendix A).
Problems of this sort often arise when one does not distinguish between general health issues and operational measures of these issues. Rarely are data available in the precise form policymakers prefer, so concessions must be made to data constraints. The presentation of the performance measures should reflect this compromise by separately identifying the issues to be monitored and the best available data or proxy variables for those issues and by stating targets in terms of the measurable quantities. For example, Healthy People 2000 measures the initiation of cigarette smoking by children and youth as the proportion of cigarette smokers in the 20–24 age group. The actual measure is smoking prevalence, not initiation. This is appropriate, however, because prevalence rates are easier to obtain from population surveys and

(WCNC) The Carolina Waterfowl Rescue Center needs help caring for 26 turkeys that were turned over to them this week after they somehow fell off a truck traveling through Charlotte.
"They all are just pretty much beat up. Lots of bruises and cuts," said Jennifer Gordon, who runs the center.
Animal Control had them first after the turkeys were rounded up and the county was more than happy to turn them over to Waterfowl Rescue.
However, 26 baby turkeys -- or polts as they are called -- is a lot for the center to handle right now.
The turkeys have never lived outside and with the cold temperatures, they must be kept penned-up in a kitchen for warmth.
The center is asking for donations to help with the cost of caring for them, which includes the cost of special feed and the medical bills for 26 injured turkeys.
"Thankfully, their fractures are in the wings which they will be unable to use anyway," said Gordon.
If there is some good to come out of all this it is that the 26 turkeys will all escape being on someone's table for Christmas dinner.
"They got the official turkey pardon," Gordon said. "Not from Obama but they are definitely going to have good lives now."

'les tilleuls'
'Les Tilleuls' is a lovingly restored, 17th century stone-built country-house, nestling in a tranquil hamlet between the Lot and the Dordogne. Built round a central courtyard, it sits in 1.5 acres of grounds and has stunning, panoramic views of the surrounding French countryside. Nearby are the picturesque local villages of Campagnac-les-Quercy, Cazals, Marminiac and Salviac, whilst the world-famous historical "beauty spots" of the Dordogne and the Lot, including Beynac, Cahors, Domme, La Roque-Gageac, Rocamadour and Sarlat, are all within easy driving distance.
'Les Tilleuls' is full of character - thoughtfully renovated and comfortably decorated in an easy, informal style, creating a sense of harmony, both inside and out. It is a perfect fusion of the beauty of the old combined with the convenience of the new.
As with all ancient buildings, every room is different. With beamed ceilings and mellow stone walls, the main house has a beautiful drawing room where, in the cooler months, you will enjoy cocktails by the huge, log-burning fire, followed by leisurely candle-lit dinners.
On the mezzanine, with magnificent views over the outdoor pool to the rolling hills beyond, there is a well-stocked library - a perfect place to relax with a good book or perhaps play a game of backgammon, cards or chess. There is also a quiet sitting area on the ground floor, overlooking the central courtyard.
With doors opening on to both the courtyard and the south-west facing terrace, the delightful kitchen is at the very heart of the house. Here, guests are encouraged to help themselves at any time to tea, coffee and drinks.
There are four twin-bedded / double guest bedrooms, each with their own attractive and unique style. Two of the bedrooms are located in the main house, with the other two situated across the courtyard in the charming, mellow-stone grange. All bedrooms are centrally heated with beautifully appointed en suite facilities and boast "the most comfortable beds ever!" dressed with crisp white Egyptian cotton bed-linen.
Pilates sessions are held in a bright, fully-equipped studio in the grange. With stunning views of the pool, the picturesque pigeonnier and the surrounding countryside, every effort has been made to create the ideal environment in which to exercise.
Outside there are no formal gardens, just ample places to sit and relax, read, sketch, listen to music – on your own or with others. Or you can simply laze by the pool and enjoy the peace and tranquility that is 'Les Tilleuls'.
