Think you're down with Afrobeat? Well, if you're not familiar with Antibalas, you haven't sampled the real deal. But the Heineken TransAtlantic Festival will change all of that this weekend.
Based in Brooklyn, the Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra has straight-up hijacked the boogie from the Bronx. And while this 14-strong orchestra rolls in the tradition of Fela Kuti, its one-of-a-kind, hip-breaking descargas are also informed by Latin jazz, funk, classical music, soul, and an undeniably Afro-Cuban approach to horns. It's a musical mezcla that fuels the fire of the big band's sound and incites all-out frenzies on the dance floor whenever this troop takes the stage for one of its now-legendary live sets.
7275 Collins Ave.
Miami Beach, FL 33141
Category: Bars and Clubs
Region: North Dade
Also playing at this Saturday night's installment of the Heineken TransAtlantic Festival is none other than Miami's Cleaveland Jones, whose samba- and tropicalia-inspired tuneage seems like the perfect balance for the fury of Antibalas. Cool as a Caribbean breeze, the local singer-songwriter has a fresh collection of songs from his recently released second album, Tao Jones, a deeply personal nod to his travels, beliefs, and experiences.

|I used to go to a gym and use an elyptical/crosstrainer that I loved. About a month ago, I hurt my foot, and I can't put sneakers on anymore, or put too much pressure on my foot. I've also started a new job, where I spend 9 hrs a day in a chair. As a result, I've gained weight. What can I do to get back to my health weight without further damaging my foot?

|Hi Mimii! Check with your doctor of course--you may find that you can use a stationary bike. Swimming is wonderful too but of course you have to have access to a pool. Hope your foot feels better+heals quickly for you. KathyO
|I am also in a deskjob. I have started doing isometric exercises at my desk, like Kegels, and I also do a lot of little foot raises, because my knees were weak, and I needed to strengthen that little set of muscles in the thigh right above the knee.
Swimming was my first instinct also, for an idea for you. The cardio I get in a few laps, exceeds what I get at the gym, yet I stay cool, and there is no stress on the joints.

|Could you try using a Schwinn bike and using the arms only. I found at these when I was having physiotherapy on my frozen shoulder. I couldn't reach the pedals on their bike well because I am vertically challenged. I used it with my arms only and found that I did lose some weight.

CORPUS CHRISTI - Last fall the unexpected death of a middle school student from an allergic reaction to ant bites shocked CCISD and the community.
It made the district take a closer look at what they do in an emergency.
The death of Cameron Espinosa brought about changes and additions to current policies and procedures for CCISD.
Many which have recently been put into place by the district.
Two-a-days are underway for athletes and with it a reminder of a devastating event that happened a year ago.
One that caused CCISD to bring in a consultant to make recommendations on current athletic policies and procedures.
"Any time we have a tragedy, like happened last fall, it's a time for us all to reflect together as a team and to be able to look at things and in ways that we can do things differently," said Lorette Williams, Director of Communications for CCISD.
Sixty Epipens have been been distributed to trainers, who carry them at all home and away games as well as practices with a total of 118 purchased for campus use.
A local doctor has also given all administrators, coaches, and trainers proper instructions on how to administer the injections to those who need it in an emergency.
"What we've gotten to now is actually having un-designated Epipens that are available at all of our campuses and so what that means is it's really targeting those students who don't know have an allergy," Willams said.
Fields are maintained twice a week as before and an integrated pest management systems continues year round.
However, this time the district has sought help from the Texas Agri-Life Extension Center and its experts with regards to pesticides and insecticides.
"It doesn't just begin with maintenance coming out and mowing and applying insecticides, it also has to do with our coaching staff you know really taking a walk around the field and looking, " Williams added.
Middle school games are no longer being played on campus turfs.
"All of those have now been scheduled where they take place at the high school campuses just like this one here at Ray, all of our high schools have similar fields, we also have middle school games that are scheduled at Buc and at Cabaniss," said Williams.
All changes and improvements have been implemented to help keep parents' minds at ease and keep another tragedy from occurring.
Other recommendations made to the district are to revise the crisis communication protocol, increase medical emergency training for coaching staff, and improve record keeping between school nurses and athletics.

Was accepted into Beta but found that my system was not good enough. From what I read here this looks like a must buy as soon as I get some better hardware.
Posted Sat, Feb 26, 2011 by Ethec
Sim racers and their fans has always inhabited a niche category. It takes a special sort of love of cars, the open road, and fine motor control coupled with stamina for races that can last anywhere from a few minutes to hours. Yet the open-world multiplayer niche of the even more underserviced sim racer genre – what publisher Atari refers to as Massively Open Online Racing – has only two titles in its fold: Test Drive Unlimited and its just-released sequel. Join us as we rev up through the levels and review what is assuredly the largest-spanning and comprehensive online racing and racer lifestyle game made to-date: Test Drive Unlimited 2.
If you take the concept of gameplay to mean not just how the game plays but how it delivers the entire game experience, I found that TDU 2 delivers everything promised on the box. If you're one to thoroughly enjoy owning – not just collecting – cars on the scale of a Bugati Veyron or a Pagani Zonda – sinking into the leather seats and ogling the exquisitely crafted dash, detail, and trim, opening and closing the doors and windows, hearing the click of the turn signal and the trademark sound of each car's horn… and all of this before you turn over the engine and go out for a spin.
When you do, you'll quickly discover that TDU2 is not an arcade racer. All kinds of handling characteristics come into play as cars increase in coolness and power and the three levels of assisted driving only minimize – never mitigate - the errors new drivers tend to make. Learn the basic lessons – brake to an appropriate speed before entering a turn, accelerate through the apex, minimize drift, try not to exceed tire traction on dead starts, pass on the outside on a turn, use manual to shift gears quickly, etc. – and TDU2 will reward your efforts. Go in as a bump-and-grind racing cowboy, cornering off your competitors' sideboards, and you probably won't complete the A5 challenges, let alone the A1 – A3 brackets where the exotic-sounding cars you've only seen on TV compete.
That's my chief complaint about TDU2 – it mounts hardcore treads in casual racer rims. Throughout the tutorial and the licensing process (more on that in gameplay), TDU2 fails to do one thing that its older brother – the Gran Turismo series – does so well: teach performance driving. Ghost cars to show you the line and help you improve on time trials are missing. Helpful hints on, say, when to pull the handbrake to properly drift through a hairpin turn, are replaced by mild encouragement and derision from the passenger seat. And that, only when you smack a light pole or a barrel or otherwise really piss down your leg.
But, in the end, that's a minor quibble. The open world, free-wheeling lifestyle side of TDU2 is such a welcome departure from the sterility of GT's maps and menus that I found myself muscling through and learning by rote, precisely because the carrot on the end of the stick is that much more attractive.
The kind of extra hardware you need to properly control the higher performance cars isn't so easily forgivable, however. I leveled through the Ibiza experience twice - once using a keyboard and mouse, once using a wheel, shifter, and pedals – and the difference was remarkable. Some of this stands to reason – using WASD or the arrow keys is akin to slamming the wheel from one extreme to another, or stomping all the way down on the accelerator and brake pedal. In other words, you can never ease on the accelerator or brake or fine tune your bearing with slight sustained movements on the wheel. I got through Ibiza with mouse and keyboard, but couldn't continue getting licenses in Hawaii. The more powerful cars were just too difficult to handle in tight courses without fine control.
Speaking of the licensing system, I felt this was an excellent way to gate content and extend the PvE experience. Essentially, you must get a license for each grade of each class – A7 through A1 (A for asphalt – the highest performing modern cars), B4 through B1 (off-road vehicles for use on rally courses), and C4 through C1 (classic cars) – before you can compete in the PvE experience, the Solar Crown.
The Solar Crown, the equal parts grueling and rewarding PvE tournaments per island, has two tournaments with roughly seven challenges each per category, leading up to a massive, island-spanning, traffic-snarled time trial for island cup. Going the distance means shepherding your funds into only the best cars in each successive category (when you'd rather be buying Lamborghinis and Porsches) and, worse, places to put them, since you need to have one of each for the island cup, but the Ibiza cup offers a gorgeous Lotus Evora and a cool million as a prize.
With that kind of money, you might feel like trying your luck in the casino, available in the Atari store for a modest $10. For that price you'd expect something comparable to a XBLA game, and you'd get it. The casino has its own leveling system apart from the main games 60 levels and its own convertible currency, along with slots, poker, roulette, a VIP room and cocktail bar, and self contained cocktail bar and clothing / customizations shop. In each of the games (except for slots) you compete against other players, and there's a special kind of satisfaction in taking a player 15 levels your senior (in the main game) for tens of thousands of dollars at a poker table. But, win or lose, you gain points toward the casino's ten levels.
That's the casino. In the main game, four categories contribute to your overall level – competition, collection, social, and discovery. Seemingly everything I did earned points, but the overall level is only an indication of experience and wealth. In a skill based game like TDU2, you wouldn't expect the usual accoutrements of leveling – talent trees, new abilities, and so on. That said, if you come across a level capped player driving the same car as you, chances are he's gotten the necessary discovery points to unlock the 4 levels of tune-ups available for each car and, likely, has the edge.
Another way to increase your discovery level, not to mention add some gorgeous cars to your collections, is to find the wrecks scattered around the islands. Complete a collection of wrecks, and you can pick up a freshly rebuilt car at the used car lot.
If you like collections and minigames and love seeing the sites, you might want to take on the photography challenges. A photographer in town will show you a collection of out of focus snapshots and send you around each island to take pictures that match the photographed surroundings. Given that you have no guidance other than visual cues, it's a definite challenge and yet another reason that TDU2 is a game that's meant to be lived in, not just played.
TDU2 doesn't offer the smeary, jelly-lens high-speed photorealism you've come to expect from Need for Speed games, but given the size and scale of TDU 2, the game's visual offerings are incredibly robust. The vehicles are gloriously rendered inside and out, the environments are surprisingly diverse and, given the scale of the game, are more than serviceable, even if trees and store logos start to look familiar in Hawaii.
Best of all are the lovingly crafted visual details. Look closely and you'll see cranes swinging to construct Ibiza's next nightclub, airliners on final approach to each island's airport, and container ships sailing along visibly in the glimmering coastlines. Study a Google satellite map of each island and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how the roads and geography match up.
If you feel limited in terms of colors when you purchase a vehicle, for a few hundred dollars the sticker shop – TDU2's answer to Mako – can get the color of your car just how you like it, right down to metallic flaking and an impressive array of resizable decals. Literally hundreds of clothes options are available in the game, so there's no excuse not to dive into the fashionable side of the game once you have some money to do so.
I only have one major gripe in the visual department. The USS Arizona Memorial is as recognizable (and important) an Oahu landmark as any rainbow-shrouded hotel, but when I went looking for its representation in game, I found nothing but coastal marsh along the hallowed shores of Ford Island, much to my disappointment. Of course, not all the details can be represented in a game on TDU2's scale, but this particular one should have made the cut.
Don't get me wrong, most of the car sounds in TDU2 are exquisitely recorded. The engine noise is, to my untrained ear, spot-on and, at the very least, incredibly fulfilling, just as it has to be in a game like this. Yet some car sound volumes are markedly out of proportion. You'd be forgiven for checking to see if something fell off the car after landing after even a small jump, or wondering whether you somehow punctured your transmission fluid reservoir for how loud the audible "chunk" is when you change gears.
A handful of stations are available on your car radio, but you'll quickly find that both the announcers and the music were seemingly made to tax your will to hear. Weeks after turning the radio off, I'm still trying to purge a certain "Ya... ya… ya ya ya" song out of my sorrowful, aching head. A dongle to control iTunes and Pandora would have been a peaceable compromise.
Most players criticize the voiceover work in the game. I thought the voices were fine and the production was pretty decent (if you, as a seasoned gamer, can forgive that creepy thousand mile stare NPCs give you when talking), yet the writing is a literary atrocity. Presumably simplistic dialogue made for easy localization, but a quality foreign language dictionary could have easily cured TDU2's monosyllabic ills.
Was accepted into Beta but found that my system was not good enough. From what I read here this looks like a must buy as soon as I get some better hardware.

ALafalfa Powder

Purchased at iHerb
About six months ago, I put a black hair dye in my hair and it caused about 75% of my hair to fall out, mostly width. I had heard about Alfalfa treatment for hair restoration and decided to research it some more. I was impressed with the nutrient information. I purchased this produst solely in hopes that It would help restore the hair I loss. Within a week, I mean a weak, I started noticing a difference in my hari growth as it began to come in thicker. It doesn't tast very good, but its a small price to pay to have my hair grow back. My boyfriend is amazed to. He says he's going to tell all the women he knows. Plus he brought it for me, so he's happy about the money he invested. I love Alfalfa powder. i just love it!

It provides essential minerals, vitamins and enzymes to nourish and strengthen the entire body. I combine Alfalfa, Spirulina, Chlorella, liquid Chlorophyll and natural raw veggies and fruits which I juice using my Jack Lalane Juice Man Machine. Since I started doing this along with deep restful sleep, slow motion exercise and healthy (restricted calorie intake) diet, I feel Great. Have no need for a doctor!Because I just don't get sick anymore!

ABC News' David Chalian Reports: It appears the ailing Sen. Ted Kennedy's vision of his niece Caroline to carry the Kennedy family banner forward in the Senate for another generation may have been thwarted by Ms. Kennedy's children according to a published excerpt of a new book about Sen. Kennedy's life. The public and messy courtship of Caroline Kennedy by Gov. David Paterson (D-NY) to replace Hillary Clinton in the United States Senate came to a screeching halt in January when Ms. Kennedy removed herself from contention citing "personal reasons." In an excerpt of his new book entitled, "Ted Kennedy: The Dream That Never Died," that has been published in the current issue of Vanity Fair, author Edward Klein writes that Caroline Kennedy's three children — Rose, Tatiana, and Jack — were the instrumental force that caused their mother to take her name out of the running for the New York Senate seat and to choose not to follow in her father and uncles' footsteps. The Kennedy children "felt that she was becoming a different person — one that they didn't much like," writes Klein. Rose, the eldest, said to her mother, "'Mom, you are above this,'" according to Klein's account. Klein writes that a Kennedy friend said it "was a wake-up call. It jerked Caroline back to reality." The whole notion of who is poised to succeed Ted Kennedy as the leader of the famed Kennedy family is explored in Klein's new book. The author reports that a Kennedy family friend described a hospital room scene in the aftermath of Sen. Kennedy's seizure last year thusly: "The elephant in the room was the notion of succession. . . The question was: Who was in line to take over for Ted, not just, or necessarily, in his Senate seat but as head of the family?" Mr. Klein reports that Caroline Kennedy expected an easier path to the New York Senate seat once making her intentions clear. But it was the botched handling of the process by Gov. Paterson and the rough and tumble of New York politics that apparently was cause for alarm for her kids. A family adviser tells Klein that "Caroline was stunned" by her kids' reaction. But according to the adviser, her children "told her that if she was getting this worked up just getting the job, they didn't want to see what she would be like in the trenches of a political campaign or a fight in Washington. . . It was Caroline's conversation with her children that tipped the balance." At the time, Gov. Paterson and his aides attempted to attribute Ms. Kennedy's withdrawal from the senate selection process to possible vetting issues such as nanny and tax problems. But Ms. Kennedy and her allies continued to assert that her decision was for personal reasons.

Fair videographer:
Hi, I'm here with Becky Venn and we're at the Mother Earth News Fair in the Modern Homesteading tent. Becky is of Alpacas of Wintercreek, and she's going to tell us a little bit about her two friends that she has here today, and also tell us about, if someone is considering livestock, why they might choose alpacas. Take it away.
Becky Venn of Alpacas of Wintercreek, Fair exhibitor:
This is Licorice Whip, and this is Connor. These are both fiber boys that I have on the farm just for their fiber. I raise them for their fiber.
What we do is shear them once a year, take it from their fleece straight into roving and then straight into yarn. Versus sheep, they don't have any lanolin, so they're what we consider hypoallergenic, so anybody and everybody can wear it, and there's very little guard hair so you don't have any of the prickly factor that some of the wools have. That's why we like them, and that's why we breed them, is because we like their fiber much better. It's much easier to use than other fibers out there.
Besides that, they're sweet, they're easy on the land, they don't tear up the land at all. They have padded feet, and just teeth on the bottom.
Wintercreek is actually a breeding farm, and so I have herd sires and babies and females all there that I sell, and we do that on the farm also.
Other than that, fiber is what we grow them for. That's what they're for, and that's why they're so sustainable. We don't eat them. Some people do, but we don't eat them, we just grow them for their fiber.
Wonderful. Thank you for sharing that with us.
You bet! Thanks for coming.

BSDanywhere 4.6: Live-CD with Desktop Lite
BSDanywhere, a Live-CD based on OpenBSD, is now available in version 4.6.
With the update, the BSD variation utilizes the changes at OpenBSD, like for example, the expansion hardware support. BSDanywhere developers have removed the desktop environment 17 from the upstream distribution and replaced it with the resource-saving IceWM. An individual theme, wallpapers and artwork are also included.
The rest of the space on the Live-CD has been used by developers to include the XMMS media player, the chat program IRSSI, the text-mode mailer Mutt and the XFE file manager. Also on the CD is the terminal server client OpenNX. DDB, the online debugger for the BSD kernel can now be accessed with the shortcut [Strg]+[Alt]+[Esc].
BSDanywhere images for i386 and AM64 can be downloaded from the project homepage. The project can be supported by the purchase of official CD sets of the upstream operating system OpenBSD.

San Diego Symphony's Horn section lives on the edge
No instrument is more exposed, so a certain fearlessness is required
Those musical waves range from long sections of sustained notes, where the section reinforces the strings, to the music's most dramatic or most lyrical themes. Given the demands on the instrument, the veterans like Hall are happy to have young talent like Jaber and Chou on board.
"When you play a sport with a pro, it's easier to play," Hall said. "When everybody else is putting their part in (in tune and on time), its easier to put your part in, it's easier to buzz that note.
"You have to consider, (the horn) is not only an amplifier, but a microphone. When you have different waves hit the bell, it comes up and it vibrates on your face. So if you have poor intonation, it fights you, your lips actually get more tired. And when it's working, and you are resonating with everybody on the same vibration, you can feel it. It's much easier."
"Ein Heldenleben" will be a special challenge. No composer, living or dead, is as understanding or demanding of the horn as Strauss. His father was a famous French hornist who indelibly influenced the son. "Ein Heldenleben" ("A Hero's Life") immediately begins with an angular French horn solo (supported by cellos) that is the hero's theme. Traversing three-and-a-half octaves in three measures, it's demanding, exhilarating and, for the performer, potentially heart-stopping.
Jabor quoted Simon Rattle, the music director of the Berlin Philharmonic, regarding the horn's seemingly death-defying role in the orchestra. Rattle, known for making an unusual amount of eye contact with his musicians, said he never stares at horn players — ever — because they are "stuntmen" and you never stare at stuntmen before they are about to dance with death.
"That's what we do," Jabor said. "We're really stuntmen. We're the guy on the tightrope, the guy on the flying trapeze, the guy making everybody go, ahhhh.
"But our job is to make everything look as easy as possible. That's our gig."

South Korea and the U.S. pledged to work together to meet the threat of North Korea developing weapons of mass destruction amid indications the country may be planning a third nuclear test.
The countries reaffirmed their commitment to coping with additional North Korean provocative actions and threats, such as the firing of a long-distance missile and a nuclear weapon test, South Korea's National Defense Ministry said in an e-mailed statement today after a meeting earlier this week in Washington of the so-called Korea-U.S. Integrated Defense Dialogue.
It was the first round of talks between the defense authorities since North Korea launched a rocket April 13 that disintegrated shortly after takeoff. North Korea has escalated threats against South Korea and the U.S. in recent weeks as the new leader Kim Jong Un celebrates the centennial of the birth of the country's founder, his late grandfather Kim Il Sung.
U.S. satellite pictures from April 18 may show further activity at North Korea's Punggye-ri nuclear testing site, the U.S.-Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies in Washington said today on its website called "38 North."
The imagery "supports the contention that preparations are continuing and that the North Koreans are preceding as if the test go-ahead decision has already been made," the report said. The pictures don't "give any indication of when that detonation may take place."
Stoke Tensions
North Korean watchers, such as David Albright, president of the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington, expect the regime in Pyongyang will try to conduct an underground nuclear explosion, a move that would stoke tensions with South Korea, the U.S. and the United Nations Security Council.
North Korea is already under UN sanctions for its two past nuclear tests, and the Security Council censured Kim's government after this month's rocket launch. That firing prompted a rare public admission of failure to the outside world and raised questions about whether Kim can secure his grip on the military and government as he confronts global condemnation and an economy that struggles to feed its own people.
Kim, who inherited power on the death of his father Kim Jong Il in December, observed a combined arms exercise to mark the 80th anniversary of the Korean People's Army, the state-run Korean Central News Agency said today, without specifying the date of the exercise.
South Korea and the U.S. also said they will strengthen cooperation in space and cyber-technology, the South Korean Defense Ministry said in its report on the talks in Washington held on April 26-27.

Macomb Community Collegeĺs womenĺs basketball team has already overcome one major loss.
Next week, the Monarchs will try to overcome the other one in hopes of winning back-to-back Michigan Community College Athletic Association Eastern Conference championships.
Five weeks ago, MCC lost All-American center Dominique Mahone with a torn ACL. Two weeks later, the Monarchs dropped a 56-48 decision to St. Clair Community College -- their only setback of the season.
ôDom was one of the top five returning players in the country,ö said coach Jay Ritchie. ôShe was our top player averaging 15 points and 15 rebounds a game and was sure to be a Division 1 player next year. When she went down, everybody thought Macombĺs not going to be very good.
ôWeĺve started five freshmen the last 10 or 11 games and weĺre third in the country defensively. Weĺre just good enough offensively to win. Somehow, weĺve stepped up. Weĺve won five close games in the last eight because weĺve made plays down the stretch. Itĺs been a great learning experience for the freshmen because theyĺre all coming back next year and theyĺll be that much better.ö
One of those freshmen is Sterling Heights grad Sarah Chehab, who had 19 points and 15 rebounds in Macombĺs 61-33 victory against Alpena Community College on Wednesday.
Chehab said that it was up to the rest of the team to pick up the slack in Mahoneĺs absence.
ôYou just have to step up,ö Chehab said. ôDom was our best player. When she got hurt it was very unfortunate for us but everybody had to pick up the pieces again -- work together and play hard.ö
Ritchie said that the Monarchs didnĺt make a lot of changes when Mahone was injured.
ôWe had two big girls to replace her,ö Ritchie said. ôWe donĺt run as many set plays for our post players because Dom was a force inside, but weĺve relied more on our perimeter players. Breanna Kidd, our point guard, has gone from five points a game to 11 points a game in Domĺs absence because she has to attack and score more.
ôItĺs really a spread the wealth deal with Dom gone and obviously the other kids have stepped up.ö
Ritchie has been pleased with Chehabĺs play.
ôSarah is an undersized forward at 5-9, but sheĺs our second-leading rebounder the last 10 games,ö he said. ôSheĺs in double figures at 5-9, which is hard to believe in our league. She attacks the ball when itĺs up on the rim and sheĺs ferocious in there.
ôTonight she was able to get out and run a little bit and we found her in transition. On offense sheĺs aggressive and assertive.ö
Chehab said that there was a period of adjustment from high school to college.
ôAt first it was difficult,ö she said. ôBut now itĺs February and we started in September. Itĺs been months. You have to transition into it. Iĺve adjusted to it and Iĺve gotten used to it.ö
Macomb had little trouble with Alpena, racing to an 18-0 lead and extending the margin to 36-5 at halftime.
ôWe had one of our best offensive halves in the first half, shooting 45 percent,ö Ritchie said. ôWhen you do that, you have a chance to win some games. Our defense, especially in the first half, paid attention to detail.ö
Rashaun Hankins had 12 points and eight rebounds for the Monarchs, who won their seventh straight game. Jackie Bieniewicz collected six assists. Tina DĺAlmeida and Vanessa Edwards each had three steals.
Macomb plays at Oakland Community College on Saturday, then hosts St. Clair on Feb. 27 in a battle for first place in the conference. Both teams are 15-1 in Eastern Conference play.
ôWeĺre going to have to keep them out of transition,ö Ritchie said of the Skippers. ôWe did that for the most part in the first game. We had three breakdowns defensively all game -- three in a row in the second half. They got six points in a row on us with eight minutes to go and that was the difference in the game.
ôWe have to score, shoot the ball a little more. Bieniewicz is starting to step up and shoot the 3 well. Sarah and Kidd are coming on offensively. You have to take away what St. Clair does well, take care of the ball and knock down a few shots. Then weĺre league champs again -- if we win Saturday.ö
Chehab said that a good start like the Monarchs had against Alpena is crucial against St. Clair.
ôYou have to come out with intensity from the get-go,ö she said. ôWe canĺt wait until the second half. We have to talk on defense -- thatĺs very important for us. We just have to play hard and go get it.ö
Macomb is 24-1 overall, the third year in a row the Monarchs have won at least 20 games.
ôWeĺre getting quality kids with this freshman class and the kids coming in next year,ö Ritchie said. ôWeĺre going to be a top five team, if not No. 1 in the country next year. Kids are starting to realize that if they come to Macomb theyĺre going to have Division 1 or Division 2 opportunities when they leave here.
ôOur phone is ringing off the hook from big schools that want our kids. Itĺs a great situation for them.ö
Macomb 61, Alpena 33
ALPENA CC (6-19, 2-14): Allison Burley 2, Whitney Frazier 8, Lauren Seibert 6, Sherri Smith 2, Amy Nowak 2, Sarah Cummings 3, Courtanee Stieg 2, Karena Hipkins 3, Ashleigh Monticello 3, Katherine Wollan 2. Totals: 11 (4) 7-9--33.
MACOMB CC (24-1, 15-1): Liz McKee 5, Jazmine Kimbrough 2, Jackie Bieniewicz 5, Breanna Kidd 6, Sarah Chehab 19, Christina DĺAlmeida 6, Rashaun Hankins 12, Vanessa Edwards 2, Jazlyn Lindsay 4. Totals: 24 (4) 9-14--61.

customer's subdomains
please can someone tell me what the most recommended way is giving customers the possibilty to create their own subdomains?
I've read here around that this has to be done by creating a new website. But this can only the admin do, or am I wrong? So customers would have then to ask me for creating their subdomains? And by this way: how can I manage customer based quota, traffic and so on, if this there is one sold webpackage (with subdomains included) only?
Thanks for help
Hmm, is my question that absurd??
Let's assume you have a web site www.example.com. Now you'd like to have a subdomain sub.example.com that points to the www.example.com web site. In this case you simply create sub.example.com as a Co-Domain for the www.example.com web site in ISPConfig.
If sub.example.com should point to a web site of its own (instead of to www.example.com), then you must create a new web site in ISPConfig and use sub.example.com for that web site.
Just to not make duplicates in the forum: in this thread there is my example (#3)
I created the new domain, but there would be an error somewhere... :confused:
Thanks for the quick reply ;)

Won golf for 1 year by hitting an ace
First Hole in One
my first hole in one
Fred Lloyd
1st for me
It Went In
Awkward Swing Great Swing
One of Many to Come
Posted: March 28, 2012
I've been playing this silly game of golf for 45 years and yesterday (March 27, 2012) I finally had my first hole in one. I aced the 7th hole, a Par 3 at Deep Creek Golf Club in Punta Gorda, Florida. I used a Pro V 1x. The most astonding thing of this story is that most golf balls are numbered 1-4 but this one had the number 7 on it and it was the the 7th hole for my first ace.
Sunday March 25 at Ross Rodgers (WildHorse) in Amarillo Texas hole #11 Par 3 193 yards pin to the back of the green I hit a solid 5 Iron landed in front of the green and rolled to the top of the green breaking left went right in the hole. I was in shock my friends Lee, Randy and Bill witnessed and they went nuts then it hit me i just aced my first hole ever. We will never forget this moment.
It was the second round of the year at Belle Fourche Country Club with a friend. 313 yard par 4 with a blind tee shot. Could not find the ball and looked in the hole and there it was! hit a 910 D2!
Posted: March 27, 2012
On March 24 2010 i was playing golf at my home course of Desert Mountain in Scottsdale Arizona. I was playing on Chiricahua which is one of the 6 Jack Nicklaus designed golf courses, i was playing with my father Kevin and two other business partners. As we came to hole number 8 a par 3 126 yard hole i selected a pitching wedge and struck the ball, it hit the center of the green and then spun back into the hole. I was excited and continued my round, i then proceeded to the tee at 14 which is another par 3 134 yards, i again selected a pitching wedge and who would have thought another hole in one, i had TWO in the same round and the odds are 67,000,00 to 1. So i have been playing approximately once a week since then and nearly two years later on March 16, 2012 i was playing Outlaw at Desert Mountain, as i arrived on the 14th Tee Par 4 310 yards i selected a Driver, i hit a low screamer which landed in front of the green and ran all the way up and to the back of the green. I thought that i had overshot the the green and grabbed my wedge and putter and headed for the green, i looked behind the green and nothing was there. My friend said hang on let me check the hole... what do you know an Ace on a par 4. Ironically enough all three of these hole in ones were used by a Titleist 2 Prov1x.
I have had two hole-in-ones in the last 90 days using the new Titlest Velocity ball! It is great!

text: Toro Rosso: We are disappointed 23 August, 2014 Jean-Eric Vergne Toro Rosso team report from qualifying at the Belgian Grand Prix, Round 12 of the 2014 Formula 1 World Championship, at Spa-Francorchamps. Daniil Kvyat (STR9-04) Third Practice Session Best lap: 1:49.893, pos. 7th, 11 laps Qualifying Best lap: (Q1) 2:10.445, (Q2) 2:09.377, pos. 11th "That was a tricky qualifying session and until the last run I wasn't too happy with the car handling. But we tweaked a few things and in the end I was much more comfortable. I would say that my last run in Q2 was quite representative, even though I think we could have been faster if it had been dry. Tomorrow will be a different situation, since the race is very long and anything can happen. We will definitely push hard and hopefully we can grab some points." Jean-Eric Vergne (STR9-01) Third Practice Session Best lap 1:50.535, pos. 10th, 10 laps Qualifying Best lap: (Q1) 2:09.811, (Q2) 2:09.805, pos. 12th "Q1 went well but then unfortunately we had an issue with the exhaust system, which compromised my Q2, being able to run only three laps and the timing was not the best one. It's a shame as we had the car to make it to Q3 today. Nevertheless, we have seen during the weekend that we have got the pace to do well, long runs looked pretty good. Considering that tomorrow the race should be in dry conditions, starting from P12 is not too bad, as everything is possible." James Key (Technical Director): "A tough session today. Obviously we are disappointed not to have made it to Q3 as, looking at our car performance along the weekend, that was definitely our target. Q1 was very much a game of getting the right tyres on at the right time. The team did a very good job and the drivers responded really well. Q2 was tricky as it started to rain at the beginning of the session. Daniil ran two sets of tyres, unfortunately he didn't quite make it to Q3 at the end for just a tenth. We'll have a look to understand why. With JEV, unfortunately he had a clap on his exhaust system which came loose and needed to be tightened up. That meant that he missed the initial run and he had a single opportunity at the end. I also think we probably could have sent him out a bit later than we did, because the track was definitely better towards the end of the session but at that time it was difficult to tell. All these factors really effected his session. All this said, I'm still convinced that we are in a position to fight for the points tomorrow." Ricardo Penteado (Renault Sport F1 track support leader): "As always in Spa when it rains, it's very difficult to put everything together absolutely perfectly. We continued to refine the Power Unit maps during FP3 and everything worked well in qualifying, even if we constantly tweaked the settings as conditions evolved. We had the pace for the top 10 so it's unfortunate to just miss out but we are well placed for the race nevertheless."
