Monte Moore, the former legendary voice of the A's, used to call them "taters" and "dingers." Fans used to sit in the right field bleachers under the sign that read "Reggie's Regiment," waiting for future Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson to uncork one of his patented home runs. More recently, you might have spotted a t-shirt at the Coliseum that proclaims that "Chicks Dig the Long Ball." No doubt, Oakland A's fans through the years have been treated to some of the greatest home run hitters of modern times, from Jackson to Mark McGwire, from Jose Canseco to Jason Giambi, from Sal Bando to Eric Chavez. Unfortunately, sluggers have been in short supply over the past few years in Oakland. Even at the traditional power positions–the corner infield and outfield positions–it has been rare to see a 20-homer season. In fact, last year, third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff led the team with only 16 home runs (I suspect he'll hit a few more in his new home, Coors Field).
So, what has transpired over the past few weeks is sweet music to A's fan who covet the long ball. Not only has left fielder Josh Willingham gone on a home run tear that has seen him "go yard" nine times in his last 23 games, but last night we witnessed the explosive bat of newly-acquired first baseman Brandon Allen. While the former Diamondback certainly had shown glimpses of his batting prowess in his first week in Oakland–roping two doubles and two triples and hitting in the rarefied air of a .400-plus average–the power display he unleashed at Yankee Stadium last night could go down in franchise annals as one of the more impressive A's debuts ever in the Bronx. Beyond belting his first two home runs as an Athletic, Allen left little doubt of the outcome of both, as one landed in the second deck, the other in the third deck of the New Yankee Stadium. Much like Willingham, Allen possesses the kind of legitimate power that no Major League park can contain.
Willingham, who is tied for the American League lead in home runs (11) and ranks fifth in RBI (30) since the All-Star Break, will become a free agent after this season. But it's difficult for A's fans not to contemplate the raw-boned slugger joining Allen in the middle of our 2012 lineup, providing the kind of one-two punch that could be the cornerstone of a more powerful and balanced offense in Oakland. Health has been the real key to Willingham's recent surge, as he has started 38 of the A's last 40 games since coming off the DL with an Achilles strain. His 20 home runs and 74 RBI are certainly impressive on their own merit, but they're even more impressive considering he's played in only 103 games. This good run of health may suggest that the way Bob Melvin and our training staff is handling him–including occasional days at DH–bodes well for Willingham's future production.
Historically, defense and pitching still does win championships, no doubt. But as any baseball fan will tell you, it's awfully fun to watch the home team launch a few missiles into the bleachers, too. Willingham, Matsui, and now Allen, are starting to resemble some of those A's power hitters of yore. But for a one young boy named Reid Manley from Napa, his appreciation for dramatic home runs is clearly in the present. Unless his father has provided a history lesson of the Bash Brothers or Reggie, all little Reid knows is what he experienced at the Coliseum last Saturday when his hero, Josh Willingham, hit the team's first pinch-hit home run of the season. His before-and-after reaction, chronicled here on YouTube, pretty much says it all. Take a look, enjoy the moment, and allow yourself to dream about this becoming a more common occurrence in A's Land:
1 Comment
it is indeed the fact that defense and pitching win championships, no doubt.
But I would love to watch my home team win.
That so great of you,I had missed the fantastic moment.Its awful here to watch.

No. 3: Kathleen Turner
1981's "Body Heat" introduced us to a super hot young actress named Kathleen Turner. Throughout the '80s, she got sexier and sexier (and her legs seemed to get longer and longer).
She famously lit up the screen in movies like "Romancing the Stone" and "Peggy Sue Got Married." And it didn't hurt that she had that deep, sultry voice either. And while Jessica Rabbit was sexily drawn, it was Kathleen's voice that really turned her into a cartoon bombshell.
But the years have not been good to her. Like so many other popular actors, her career started to slide, and her sexy looks just followed.
That deep, throaty voice isn't so sexy anymore. Now it just sounds like she has a cigarette in one hand and a slot machine handle in the other.

One of the best things about the Geneva show is all the crazy Euro tuner companies that show up and get great positioning on the show floor. Other auto shows really minimize the presence of tuners and focus on production cars from the big automakers. In Geneva, everyone is equal and the most Godawful tuners stand proudly beside the most exotic automakers. By far, the coolest tuner vehicle on the floor is the MTM T 500 2.5 FSI. This heavily modified Volkswagen T5 van uses an I-5 that now produces 472 hp and hustles the vehicle to 62 mph in an estimated 5.6 seconds. A seven-speed DSG transmission ensures perfectly rev-matched downshifts when you need to blow past slower traffic. I no longer care if the Audi RS4 Avant comes Stateside. I'd much prefer this awesome Volkswagen van. The German flag paint job can stay in Europe, though. Porsche's new 991 has been out long enough to receive a mild tuning treatment from Techart. There was also a 997 model tuned by Techart on the stand painted the same color. At first I couldn't tell which car was new, but thankfully Techart left the 991's distinct taillights alone and I realized which car was which. Overall the Techart treatment is pretty mild and tasteful aside from the bright yellow paint. I haven't had a chance to drive the 991 yet, so I don't know how much room is left for improvement in the tuning realm. I doubt there's much to be had without some wild transformation to a turbo or GT3-like incarnation. Perhaps I'm more jet-lagged than I thought, but the Mansory stand looked surprisingly tasteful this year. The over-the-top carbon-fiber Mercedes is still too gaudy, but the McLaren MP4-12C and Lamborghini Aventador look surprisingly tasteful for Mansory products. Perhaps the more aggressive lines on the new supercars disguise the typically garish Mansory modifications better than an understated Benz or Bentley design does. You won't be able to fly under the radar in these rides, but you probably won't upset everyone you meet, either. In what appears to be a Yin to Mansory's sudden Yang, RUF brought along a stretched Porsche Panamera that is sure to make Porsche purists angrier than the upcoming Porsche Mecan. The Panamera doesn't start its life as the best looking car in Porsche's stable and RUF didn't bother to address that one flaw in the car. Instead, it decided to stretch the Panamera by 15 or 25 cm to give the hunchback sedan and even more ungainly profile. Even the rear doors are stretched to awkward proportions. Who asked for this thing? Fab Design and Hamann seem to be having a contest to see who can make the new Mercedes-Benz SL look better by defacing the outgoing model. At this point, I'm calling Hamann the winner because the carbon-fiber hood looks like it would be more at home on a Viper than an SL. What is it about Mercedes-Benz design that screams "Ruin me!" to tuners For more on the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, including videos, the latest photos, and more information, click here to visit our 2012 Geneva Motor Show homepage.

The six system-level Teachers of the Year and the building-level Teachers of the Year for Bradley County and Cleveland City Schools and Tennessee Christian Preparatory School were honored with a reception and awards presentations.
"Education is one of the cornerstones of a growing and vibrant community," Sherry Crye, director of workforce development for the Chamber of Commerce, said. "It is also a vital part of all economic and community development initiatives in the Chamber's Program of Work."
"We are aware of the key role each teacher plays in developing our future community leaders and in preparing students for the future workforce," she said. "We (the Chamber) commit a lot of time, energy and resources toward education and the development of students for jobs."
The Chamber of Commerce has long recognized local educators for their contribution to the local community.
"We are grateful for their influence," stressed Nancy Neal, vice president of communications for the Chamber. "The educators who honor us by attending our Salute to Education excel in their profession. They are molding young men and women who will make a difference in our community's future."

Dr. Bill Balzano, president of Tennessee Christian Preparatory School, Johnny McDaniel, director of Bradley County Schools, and Dr. Martin Ringstaff, director of Cleveland City Schools, offered comments for the occasion and acknowledged all building-level Teachers of the Year. Each teacher received a certificate and a door prize for attending.
Building-level Teachers of the Year for Bradley County Schools are Kay Elder, Black Fox Elementary; Bryan Cofer and Danny Casteel, Bradley Central; Julie Melton and Robin Lawson, Charleston Elementary; Jana Hays and Sarah Burris, Hopewell Elementary; Angela McAmis and Sheryl Rollins, Lake Forest Middle; and Jamie Seymour and Dean Heller, Michigan Avenue Elementary.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Brewers make trades for has been, never was
milwaukee brewers July 31st, 2011
The trade deadline has come and gone and seemingly every team in the league was making deals, looking for that one piece to take their team from contender to champion.
The Indians got Ubaldo Jimenez! The Giants got Carlos Beltran! The Red Sox got Erik Bedard! The Rangers got Mike Adams and Koji Uehera! The Braves got Michael Bourn! The Phillies got Hunter Pence!
Some very good teams got better and in the process the road to the World Series got a whole lot tougher for the Brewers. Those weren't the only moves of the weekend either. The NL Central is so close right now and the two teams chasing the Brewers made moves to bolster their teams as well. Big moves that could shake the very foundation of the National League.
The Pirates got Derek Lee and Ryan Ludwick!
The Cardinals got Edwin Jackson and Rafael Furcal!
I mean, wow. Am I right? Those guys weren't messing around! Those Pirates really added some big bats... from four years ago. Normally the Brewers would be shaking in their boots right now seeing big names like those going to their rivals at the same time Rickie Weeks went down, but not this year. They know that Doug Melvin has their back and that he would make some deadline deals of his own. No worries, they possibly thought, we're going to do some trades of our own to blow these guys out of the water because in Doug we trust. And you know what? They were right. Doug Melvin went out and got exactly what this team needed to get to the next level.
The Brewers got Felipe Lopez and Jerry Hairston Jr.!
Umm... wait, what? Read the rest of this entry »

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Kona!
Facts about Kona
- Breed: Labrador Retriever
- Color: Brown/Chocolate
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Kona's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Meet Kona! She has had a rough start to life. She unfortunately spent her first 3 years out in the yard alone with no love or play with her. She is starved for attention... loves to give kisses and lay her head in your lap for pets. She does not know what a toy is or how to play. She wants to learn and please her human. She is potty trained and crate trained ( if needed), she will sleep in a crate through the night. From what we can tell, she is fine with kids and should be ok with male dogs once she is spayed. She is a small dark chocolate lab weighing about 35 to 40 pounds and would be a good size for an apartment. If you love labs and can provide the love and attention that Kona craves, please consider this sweet girl. Kona is located in Knoxville TN
Kona is located in Knoxville TN
Other Pets at Southern ROOTS Rescue Inc. - Knoxville Chapter
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Kona, a Knoxville Labrador Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever for sale in Knoxville, or seeking a Labrador Retriever dog from a breeder in Knoxville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Knoxville already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Knoxville breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Knoxville paves the way for another one to be saved.

I really like Amy's Organic Beans & Rice Burrito, but as a non-vegetarian, I like to eat meat too. A lot of burritos are very large and calorie dense, so I'm pretty aggressive about analyzing nutrition labels on burritos. For a healthier meat burrito, I went with Cedarlane Low Fat Chicken Burrito.
The beans and rice are organic and provide the necessary kick for the burrito. The shredded chicken looked very good, but the taste wasn't particularly noticeable compared with the other spices in the burrito. There is cheddar cheese included in the burrito, but I couldn't really tell when I was eating it.
Each 6 ounce burrito has 270 calories and 3 grams of fat, including 1 gram of saturated fat, 21% of the daily value for sodium, 15 grams of protein and 6 grams of dietary fiber.
The burrito cost $2.79 at Kroger. In addition to the reasonable calorie count, the burrito has less sodium than the typical frozen entree and provides lots of protein, fiber, and iron; plus, it tasted great too. As a "flexitarian," or one who eats meat occasionally, I would put this burrito on par with the Amy's burrito and maybe even surpassing Amy's depending on how much I'm lookin' to eat chicken.
Cedarlane Beans Rice & Cheese Style Burrito, Cedarlane Pizza Veggie Wrap and Cedarlane Couscous & Vegetable Veggie Wrap also have good ratings. Looks like Cedarlane Burritos are the way to go!

"We are redoubling and enhancing our testsing and scrutiny in these areas to further assure food safety," according to the statement.
The Mexico operation has an "exceptional" food safety record, from fields to finished product, according to the company.
Taylor Farms and state health officials said the product linked to the outbreak is no longer in the supply chain, and salad mix currently available is safe to eat.
Mexican authorities, including the National Agro-Alimentary Health, Safety and Quality Service (SENASICA) are working with the FDA on the investigation, according to the release.

FRESNO, Calif. — With a Central Valley pepper crop running a week ahead of schedule and a major packing shed upgrade running two weeks behind, Baloian Farms had to improvise as the season started.
Generators were brought in for a couple of weeks to help with air movement until the new air conditioning system could be hooked up and the ducting could be completed.
Three weeks into harvest, workers who once were closely monitored for heat exhaustion were packing peppers in much more comfortable confines.
Improvements involved enclosing a packing shed that had been open for years, said Jeremy Lane, sales manager.
Insulated walls were erected, and four Freon-fed air conditioning compressors were installed to cool the building.
The receiving department, formerly housed in a single-wide trailer, now has a permanent office that looks out onto the packinghouse floor, he said. The sales department, formerly in a quadruple-wide mobile home, also has new permanent offices next door to the packinghouse floor.
Before the permanent walls, Lane said they would create a wall of stacked plastic bins along the sides to try to block the prevailing northwest winds. Even so, dust was a never-ending battle.
"The machinery's a little more sensitive now to temperature and dust as we get into these bags," he said. "Now it's enclosed, and we can keep things very clean here."
Baloian Farms also used to use bird hazers to try to keep winged pests at bay, Lane said.
Talk of enclosing the packing facility dates back six or seven years, said Pete Baloian food safety-facilities manager. Each year when the management group met, they brought up the project but tabled it until the following season.
With increasing emphasis on food safety and the additional value-added products that Baloian Farms is packing, he said the time had come to move on the project.
"Food safety was the business reason," said Pete Baloian, food safety facilities manager. Baloian said. "We did a cost analysis, and it doesn't save you any money on cleaning. I think what made it more palatable is the 100-plus people here."
He was referring to the routine cleaning that needs to be performed because the facility is a food plant. What the new enclosure does help is keeping equipment cleaner between the routine wash-downs.
Before the walls and air conditioning, temperatures in the shed were nearly as hot as the ambient air. In Fresno, the mercury routinely tops 100 during the summer.
Workers were continually trained in heat prevention and monitored hourly to ensure they were hydrating properly and weren't succumbing to the temperatures, Baloian said.
With the advent of the air conditioning, he said workers were much more comfortable and a few even mentioned they have to remember sweaters.
The family-owned Baloian Farms grows dozens of different vegetable varieties, but peppers are its core, Lane said. The grower-packer also has moved into value-added products with its colored sweet mini peppers and Bella Fina baby bells.
It also recently launched Squash Sauté Kits that come with two green zucchini and one yellow squash, along with a seasoning packet in either parmesan and herb or garlic and red pepper flavor.

The first time I saw this I thought it was a joke - I mean, doesn't the title sounds a bit contradictory - guiltless ... chocolate ... brownie? Could this be be for real? Could someone really have developed what I had only conceived of in my day dreams? Well, the name, Guiltless Gourmet Hot Chocolate Brownie Dessert Bowl certainly got my attention and got it into my shopping cart. Honestly, the taste of these things was the foremost thought on my mind all the way home, and I couldn't wait to rip into this.
WOW! Talk about exceeding my expectations! After a 30 second spin in the microwave and another impatient 30 seconds of waiting to let the cake cool, I discovered that this was a bowl of chocolaty delight. The dessert comes with a fairly hefty pouch of fudge sauce (evaporated cane juice crystals, syrup, water, cocoa powder, nonfat dry milk, corn starch and kosher salt). I used a little less than half of the packet and liberally covered my sweet treat thereby kicking it up another notch. By this point, I could wait no longer. The second that this chocolate creation hit my mouth, I knew I had discovered a sensational product. The brownie is fudgy and rich, tasting like something you have just pulled out of the oven. The texture is chewy and dense with the fudge sauce adding even more to the moist and smooth consistency! Furthermore, the size could not be more perfect. The 2 ounce brownie will leave you nothing short of satisfied.
While the taste was phenomenal, the nutrition facts weren't really "Guiltless." Each bowl (58 grams) has 200 calories, 3 grams of fat (5% of the RDA), 1.5 grams of saturated fat (8% of the RDA), 190 mg of sodium (8% of the RDA), 3 grams of fiber (12% of the RDA), 30 grams of sugar (ugh), 4 grams of protein and an astonishing 25% of the RDA for Iron. This actually has more calories and twice as much sugar than Betty Crocker Warm MINI Delights
The sugar content is high no doubt, so remember to cut back on the fudge sauce, and don't go eating this too often - repeat - DO NOT eat this too often - 30 grams of sugar is too much to ingest at one time! The list of ingredients is short and sweet, with a mere 9 ingredients creating the brownie portion of this dessert. How Guiltless Gourmet can create such a sensational product with so few ingredients is beyond me, but I like it! The price is usually about $2.79, but I found mine on sale for $1.50 and I have seen them at Target for $1 while they were being discontinued (I don't know what Target was thinking).
While I certainly am not going to make this a part of my regular grocery list, it will definitely be one of my go to products for occasional indulgences. I'm also looking forward to trying their other varieties, like Black Velvet and Bananas Foster Cake.

All cities and towns in Bolivar County are encouraging parents to take their children Trick-or-Treating in the early evening.
Most communities do not have specified times for Halloween but a few do, including Boyle and Cleveland, 5-8 p.m.; Drew, Mound Bayou and Shelby 5-7 p.m.; Gunnison, 4-6 p.m.; and Ruleville, 6-9 p.m.
Winstonville will hold an event at 6 p.m. at the Winstonville Community Center.
Delta State University is to hold a Trunk or Treat at Statesmen Park beginning at 5 p.m., followed by a Community Cookout and Entertainment and Fireworks display.
As of presstime, Delta State officials still had not decided if they were going to cancel the event or change the location due to predicted thunderstorms for Thursday night.
The National Weather Service is predicting a 100 percent change of rainfall with possible thunderstorms.
The Bolivar Commercial will have updates on its website and Facebook page when an announcement is made.
Cleveland Police Chief Buster Bingham said that an adult should accompany young children while Trick or Treating, and participants should always travel in groups and carry a light for safety.
Bingham also asks that trick-or-treaters be 14 years old or younger.
AAA suggests motorists and trick-or-treaters reduce their risk of being involved in a crash by doing some advanced planning:
• Avoid traveling through residential areas. If possible, try to avoid cutting through residential areas where trick-or-treaters are likely to be present.
• Obey all traffic signs and signals. The risk of killing a pedestrian increases more than many people realize with just small increases in speed. A pedestrian is nearly twice as likely to be killed if they're hit by a car going 30 mph compared to if they're hit at 25 mph, according to the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. What seems like a small difference—just 5 mph—can literally be the difference between life and death.
• Watch for children walking on roadways, medians and curbs. In dark costumes, they'll be harder to see at night. Also, be aware that trick-or-treaters may not be paying attention to traffic and may mid-block or between parked cars. Motorists should scan far ahead when driving in residential areas, watch for children and cautiously monitor their actions. Turn on your headlights to make yourself more visible - even in the daylight.
• Plan and discuss the route your trick-or-treaters will follow.
• Have children wear disguises that don't obstruct vision, and avoid facemasks. Instead, use nontoxic face paint.
• Parents and trick-or-treaters should cross streets only at the corner, and never between parked cars or mid-block. Be sure that approaching cars come to a complete stop before stepping into the roadway.

We Want to Know Your Thoughts About the TEDMED Great Challenges
Apr 10, 2012, 6:34 AM, Posted by Brian C. Quinn
At the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), our mission is to improve the health and health care of all Americans. Good health and health care are fundamental measures of our success as a nation. That's why we are pleased to support this year's TEDMED conference (April 10-13), which brings together leaders from a wide array of medical and non-medical disciplines to explore the future of health and medicine.
In our 40 years, RWJF has learned several lessons that led us to support this year's TEDMED conference. We've learned the importance of working with partners and building on the efforts of others; facilitating collaboration among unlikely allies; resisting the illusion of complete understanding; and being persistent.

" A great deal of this particular misinformation is based on a get-rich-quick attitude, which had been especially prevalent during the amazing dotcom market inside the late '90s. People believed that stocks and options were the particular magic step to instant wealth without having risk.
The producing dotcom lock up proved that this is not the circumstance. Stocks can certainly (and do) create massive levels of wealth, they aren't without having risks. The one solution to the is training. The key to guarding yourself inside the stock market is usually to understand where you stand putting your cash.
It is because of this that we have now created this particular tutorial: to supply the foundation you need to make investment decisions your self. We'll begin by explaining that of a stock is and also the different types of stock, after which we'll talk about how they may be traded, what exactly is prices to change, how you obtain stocks plus much more.
Do you know when you have at the very least a couple of 1, 000 money within your future brokerage firm account that you be eligible to help acquire income towards your own current stocks and options to purchase all the more? That training is called dealing about perimeter. It will allow persons who would like to obtain definitely hostile to purchase a lot more shares of any corporation when compared with they may in any other case afford.
On this page, we all uncover what perimeter can be, how one can said to work within your account, your natural pitfalls and also the power connected with leverage when your own resource starting.
The definition connected with perimeter
Described, perimeter is essentially investing along with assimilated income. Any qualified specific may purchase stock options about perimeter by simply borrowing income from their brokerage in a fixed monthly interest (for instance, 9. 5%). This charge depends on every single brokerage firm home in addition to usually lessens as the quantity assimilated will increase (e. gary., an buyer borrowing $500, 000 can pay the considerably reduced charge when compared with a single borrowing $5, 000).
Margin upkeep prerequisites
Each brokerage firm home establishes the perimeter upkeep prerequisite. That upkeep prerequisite would be the fraction collateral your buyer ought to retain in his or her account all the time. A home in which preserves the 30% upkeep prerequisite, by way of example, would certainly provide around $2. thirty-three for every single $1 an buyer acquired placed inside his or her account, providing him $3. thirty-three connected with property along with which often to invest. An buyer along with just a few stocks and options inside his or her account may be subject to a larger upkeep prerequisite (typically 50%) as the brokerage thinks the risk connected with default can be better due to deficit of diversification.
The facility connected with leverage – the sensible instance connected with perimeter in action
Some sort of speculator deposits $10, 020 in to his or her margin-approved brokerage firm account. This company carries a 50% upkeep prerequisite and is at present getting 8% interest about loans underneath $50, 000.
This speculator decides to acquire futures and commodities quotes in a corporation. Usually, although become restricted to your $10, 020 money he's got at his or her discretion. Employing perimeter, nonetheless, he or she borrows just under the maximum amount permitted ($10, 000 with this case), providing him the great full connected with $20, 020 to invest. He / she gives the $20 brokerage firm commission in addition to makes use of your $20, 000 ($10, 000 his or her income, $10, 000 assimilated money) to purchase 1, 332 shares on the corporation at $15 every single.
Predicament 1
This stock declines to help $10 per share. This account currently carries a current commodity market benefit connected with $13, 320 ($10 per share a $1, 332 shares), $10, 000 of their can be money in the perimeter mortgage, $3, 320, or 25% on the perimeter mortgage, would be the investor's collateral. That is a significant issue. This speculator ought to restore his or her collateral to help 50% inside twenty-four hrs or his or her brokerage can liquidate his or her position to repay your outstanding equilibrium about the futures traders. . That 24-hour observe is actually a perimeter call. In order to meet his or her perimeter call, he or she will need to down payment money or shares connected with stock worth at the very least $6, 680.
Experienced your speculator not obtained about perimeter, his or her decline could have recently been restricted to $3, 333. He'd have also acquired your independence to help disregard the drop inside current market benefit in case he or she believed the organization ended up being the bargain. His or her use of perimeter, nonetheless, offers flipped his or her decline in to $6, 680 together with commission about the compelled sales connected with stock and also the interest expenditure about the outstanding equilibrium.

The pitching matchup for tonight!
Am I thousand years behind everyone else in noticing this? Alternately, seeing as there are a thousand and one 55s in MLB, does nobody else care? Tonight is a big game, of course, because every Lincecum start is a chance at redemption and what better way to lead into redemption than that 12-7 win last night? (Correction: Thanks to tweeter @jeni_2782 for pointing out that the final was actually 14-7. Say what? I'm telling you, I can't keep track of a team that actually scores runs.) I am not used to those crooked numbers, not used to them at all. I mean, for a little bit there, I felt like I was watching the Rangers. Then I remembered that the Rangers have a cool General Manager who broadcasts a few innings of his team's games on the radio and things and the Giants have Brian Sabean. Talk about a reminder of what's what. That was kind of a sad moment but still, I enjoyed the game.
The Marlins stadium still weirds me out but, hey, if nightclubs are kind of their thing, who am I to criticize? I am setting my wedding date with Kate Spade New York as I write. Besides, that tidbit about the club section being so loud they couldn't hear the phone in the bullpen is seriously priceless. Remember when Tony La Russa suggested smoke signals because there was a big miscommunication between the bullpen and the dugout? I thought it was a fantastic idea. The Marlins might consider it too, just as long as they can figure out how to create teal smoke. I have complete faith on that front.
The internet knows what I'm talking about.
Let's also just talk Melky Cabrera for a moment, before I go. That guy, guys. He is the best thing to happen to San Francisco since Joe Martinez or something. (No sarcasm there, I am terribly partial to Joe Martinez. Never mind the stats.) I admit to being perpetually puzzled by the Melk Men thing – I think it's before my time maybe… don't judge but I kind of get my milk at a grocery store – but with due love to J-Sanch, the Giants got the best part of that trade. The best, the best. Observe:
Tiene Leche, as the Yankees used to say. Maybe we're not cursed after all?

Important Information
All sales on house plans and customization/modifications are final. No refunds or exchanges can be given once your order has started the fulfillment process.
All house plans from Houseplans are designed to conform to the local codes when and where the original house was constructed.
In addition to the house plans you order, you may also need a site plan that shows where the house is going to be located on the property. You might also need beams sized to accommodate roof loads specific to your region. Your home builder can usually help you with this. You may also need a septic design unless your lot is served by a sanitary sewer system. Many areas now have area-specific energy codes that also have to be followed. This normally involves filling out a simple form providing documentation that your house plans are in compliance.
To find out what documents you should expect with your house plans, see what's included?
In some regions, there is a second step you will need to take to insure your house plans are in compliance with local codes. Some areas of North America have very strict engineering requirements. Examples of this would be, but not limited to, earthquake-prone areas of California and the Pacific Coast, hurricane risk areas of the Florida, Gulf & Carolina Coasts. New York, New Jersey, Nevada, and parts of Illinois require review by a local professional as well. If you are building in these areas, it is most likely you will need to hire a state licensed structural engineer to analyze the design and provide additional drawings and calculations required by your building department. If you aren't sure, building departments typically have a handout they will give you listing all of the items they require to submit for and obtain a building permit.
Additionally, stock plans do not have a professional stamp attached. If your building department requires one, they will only accept a stamp from a professional licensed in the state where you plan to build. In this case, you will need to take your house plans to a local engineer or architect for review and stamping. In addition, plans which are used to construct homes in Nevada are required to be drawn by a licensed Nevada architect.
How much will this cost to build?

This bag is such a joy!
All the details in the description are true, from looks to quality of manufacture. The design, traditional and very simple makes for a very practical case. It is pleasant to carry, stable when placed on the car seat or floor. Access to equipment inside is easy and though not the biggest of bags holds all my home-visit materials with ease and some extras too. Yes, it will be easy to keep clean and after 4 weeks of use it's obvious that it will be very hard wearing.

Talal Asad
March 4, 2010 by TMO
By Geoffrey Cook, MMNS
Camp Meeker (Calif.)–February 28th–This discussion was observed some time ago in Berkeley, but your essayist is only finding the time to write it up this Sunday afternoon.
Asad's father was an Austrian Jewish convert to Islam and his mother was a Muslim-born woman. The philosophically-oriented Talal was born in the Saudi Kingdom, but raised in India and Pakistan. The younger Asad was trained as an anthropologist, and now is a professor in New York City. Your critic is mainly familiar with his compilations as an historian.
He began the exchange with "…I can give you a…location [of] where I am [stand] today. I was much more confident [of] rational criticism" in the past than now. "Working through certain materialists, [can be]…positive." In this way, he has transformed the Islamic tradition to respond to Western Secularism with an (Islamic) Modernism of its own uniqueness, "…a straight forward approach …" to problem solving ("reality testing") is required according to our philosopher.
"… [cultural] continuity is still relevant…for creativity." The question is "What can be continued and why," but he still has much to work out for a comprehensive "critique…I don't know what we can do…Thinking is good [positive], but what kind of thinking?"
Speaking especially of the Middle East, "Life is…entangled…The scope of the horror has tremendously increased" with the Afghani and Pakistani theaters, "We are in a new type of War…" Unlike President Obama, he disagrees with the Just War theories (both Christian and Islamic). There is a threat of a nuclear holocaust at present. We are following a suicidal logic!
In the Occident, Classic Eighteenth Century "Liberalism has…evolved historically [into Neo-liberalism during our generation]…" Sarcastically, he exclaimed "Let the market rule" although "…the State can intervene…" "The…West… ['s cultural] language'' contains violence…" He, personally, does not hold to a Culture of Death as he describes it.
"…any texts we write can be interpreted in many ways…" Curiously, therefore, he maintains he is not responsible for his writings.
Although he is fully conversant in European and American humanism, "…I am committed to… [the]…values of Islam…" constantly employing his religion within his philosophical doctrines. Towards the end of the dialogue, he noted certain similarities between Eastern Christianity and Islam. In this manner, he has emphasized the commonality between the roots of the West and the Islamic; and, thereby, a space for meeting.

The queen of Sheba's visit to Solomon. (1-13) Solomon's wealth. (14-29)
Verses 1-13 The queen of Sheba came to Solomon to hear his wisdom, thereby to improve her own. Our Saviour mentions her inquiries after God, by Solomon, as showing the stupidity of those who inquire not after God, by our Lord Jesus Christ. By waiting and prayer, by diligently searching the Scriptures, by consulting wise and experienced Christians, and by practising what we have learned, we shall be delivered from difficulties. Solomon's wisdom made more impression upon the queen of Sheba than all his prosperity and grandeur. There is a spiritual excellence in heavenly things, and in consistent Christians, to which no reports can do justice. Here the truth exceeded; and all who, through grace, are brought to commune with God, will say the one half was not told them of the pleasures and the advantages of wisdom's ways. Glorified saints, much more, will say of heaven, ( 1 Corinthians. 2:9 ) pronounced them happy that constantly attended Solomon. With much more reason may we say of Christ's servants, Blessed are they that dwell in his house; they will be still praising him. She made a noble present to Solomon. What we present to Christ, he needs not, but will have us do so to express our gratitude. The believer who has been with Jesus, will return to his station, discharge his duties with readiness, and from better motives; looking forward to the day when, being absent from the body, he shall be present with the Lord.
Verses 14-29 Solomon increased his wealth. Silver was nothing accounted of. Such is the nature of worldly wealth, plenty of it makes it the less valuable; much more should the enjoyment of spiritual riches lessen our esteem of all earthly possessions. If gold in abundance makes silver to be despised, shall not wisdom, and grace, and the foretastes of heaven, which are far better than gold, make gold to be lightly esteemed? See in Solomon's greatness the performance of God's promise, and let it encourage us to seek first the righteousness of God's kingdom. This was he, who, having tasted all earthly enjoyments, wrote a book, to show the vanity of all worldly things, the vexation of spirit that attends them, and the folly of setting our hearts upon them: and to recommend serious godliness, as that which will do unspeakably more to make us happy, that all the wealth and power he was master of; and, through the grace of God, it is within our reach.
1 Kings 10:1-13 . THE QUEEN OF SHEBA ADMIRES THE WISDOM OF SOLOMON.
1. the queen of Sheba--Some think her country was the Sabean kingdom of Yemen, of which the capital was Saba, in Arabia-Felix; others, that it was in African Ethiopia, that is, Abyssinia, towards the south of the Red Sea. The opinions preponderate in favor of the former. This view harmonizes with the language of our Lord, as Yemen means "South"; and this country, extending to the shores of the Indian ocean, might in ancient times be considered "the uttermost parts of the earth."
heard of the fame of Solomon--doubtless by the Ophir fleet.
concerning the name of the Lord--meaning either his great knowledge of God, or the extraordinary things which God had done for him.
hard questions--enigmas or riddles. The Orientals delight in this species of intellectual exercise and test wisdom by the power and readiness to solve them.
2. she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels--A long train of those beasts of burden forms the common way of travelling in Arabia; and the presents specified consist of the native produce of that country. Of course, a royal equipage would be larger and more imposing than an ordinary caravan.
6. It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thy acts and of thy wisdom--The proofs she obtained of Solomon's wisdom--not from his conversation only, but also from his works; the splendor of his palace; the economy of his kitchen and table; the order of his court; the gradations and gorgeous costume of his servants; above all, the arched viaduct that led from his palace to the temple ( 2 Kings 16:18 ), and the remains of which have been recently discovered [ROBINSON]--overwhelmed her with astonishment.
9. Blessed be the Lord thy possible, as Jewish writers say, that this queen was converted, through Solomon's influence, to the worship of the true God. But there is no record of her making any gift or offering in the temple.
10. she gave the king an hundred and twenty talents of gold--about $3,500,000.
11. almug trees--Parenthetically, along with the valuable presents of the queen of Sheba, is mentioned a foreign wood, which was brought in the Ophir ships. It is thought by some to be the sandalwood; by others, to be the deodar--a species of fragrant fir, much used in India for sacred and important works. Solomon used it for stairs in his temple and palace ( 2 Chronicles 9:11 ), but chiefly for musical instruments.
13. King Solomon gave unto the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside--that is, Solomon not only gave his illustrious guest all the insight and information she wanted; but, according to the Oriental fashion, he gave her ample remuneration for the presents she had brought.
1 Kings 10:14-29 . HIS RICHES.
14, 15. Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year--six hundred sixty-six talents, equal to about $20,000,000. The sources whence this was derived are not mentioned; nor was it the full amount of his revenue; for this was "Beside that he had of the merchantmen, and of the traffic of the spice merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the country." The great encouragement he gave to commerce was the means of enriching his royal treasury. By the fortifications which he erected in various parts of his kingdom, (particularly at such places as Thapsacus, one of the passages of Euphrates, and at Tadmot, in the Syrian desert), he gave complete security to the caravan trade from the depredations of the Arab marauders; and it was reasonable that, in return for this protection, he should exact a certain toll or duty for the importation of foreign goods. A considerable revenue, too, would arise from the use of the store cities and khans he built; and it is not improbable that those cities were emporia, where the caravan merchants unloaded their bales of spices and other commodities and sold them to the king's factors, who, according to the modern practice in the East, retailed them in the Western markets at a profit. "The revenue derived from the tributary kings and from the governors of the country" must have consisted in the tribute which all inferior magistrates periodically bring to their sovereigns in the East, in the shape of presents of the produce of their respective provinces.
16, 17. two hundred targets, six hundred shekels--These defensive arms were anciently made of wood and covered with leather; those were covered with fine gold. $6,000 worth of gold was used in the gilding of each target--$1800 for each shield. They were intended for the state armory of the palace (see 1 Kings 14:26 ).
18-26. a great throne of ivory--It seems to have been made not of solid ivory, but veneered. It was in the form of an armchair, with a carved back. The ascent to it was by six steps, on each of which stood lions, in place of a railing--while a lion, probably of gilt metal, stood at each side, which, we may suppose from the analogy of other Oriental thrones, supported a canopy. A golden footstool is mentioned ( 2 Chronicles 9:18 ) as attached to this throne, whose magnificence is described as unrivalled.
22. a navy of Tharshish--Tartessus in Spain. There gold, and especially silver, was obtained, anciently, in so great abundance that it was nothing accounted of in the days of Solomon. But "Tarshish" came to be a general term for the West ( Jonah 1:3 ).
at sea--on the Mediterranean.
once in three years--that is, every third year. Without the mariner's compass they had to coast along the shore. The ivory, apes, and peacocks might have been purchased, on the outward or homeward voyage, on the north coast of Africa, where the animals were to be found. They were particularized, probably as being the rarest articles on board.
