Cubs, Cardinals grateful to rest up after rainout
Hammel-Wacha matchup rolls over for matinee finale in St. Louis
ST. LOUIS -- That huge sigh of relief you heard from Busch Stadium on Wednesday came from the pitchers for both the Cubs and Cardinals. Both teams had depleted bullpens following Tuesday's 12-inning game, which the Cardinals won, 4-3. They needed a breather.
Nature intervened, and on Thursday, the two squads will wrap up this rain-shortened series at Busch, with Jason Hammel starting for Chicago and Michael Wacha going for St. Louis. Wednesday's rain-postponed game will be made up as part of a day-night doubleheader on Aug. 30.
The Cardinals were already planning on playing short-handed Wednesday because infielder Kolten Wong, promoted from Triple-A, was sent home with the stomach flu. They hope he'll be ready Thursday.
"He got here. I greeted him and told him we were happy to have him back and were glad that he was doing as well as he was doing," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "I was told about 10 minutes later that the doctors had seen him and needed to get him out of here. Hopefully, he bounces back quick."
Cubs manager Rick Renteria can benefit from Wednesday's rainout as well. He's been battling a cough and cold this week. It's tough when the game-time temperature fluctuates from 81 degrees on Monday to 57 on Tuesday.
The Cardinals' bullpen covered five innings on Monday and another six on Tuesday. Seth Maness would have been unavailable Wednesday after throwing four straight days. Randy Choate also was questionable after throwing 35 pitches on Monday.
On Thursday, they should be back at full strength. Matheny was prepared Wednesday.
"Well, we had anticipated Michael going long," he said, smiling.
The Cubs had hoped to avoid using Justin Grimm on Tuesday but needed the right-hander in the 12th. With the game tied and the bases loaded, he hit pinch-hitter Greg Garcia on the elbow to force in the winning run.
On Wednesday, the Cubs added reinforcements. Jose Veras, who began the season as the closer, was activated from the disabled list and rookie Zac Rosscup went to the DL with left shoulder soreness.
The Cubs are carrying 13 pitchers -- most teams have 12 -- yet still seem short-handed.
"One of the challenges is that we can't get away from these 12-inning games," Chicago general manager Jed Hoyer said Wednesday. "Every time you have one, it sets you back. It doesn't matter what team you are, you play extra innings and unless you're coming off an off-day, you'll be backed up a little in the bullpen. That's where you get into problems, when guys have to go three out of four, four out of five."
Cubs: It's Hammel time
Hammel will be looking for his eighth consecutive quality start on Thursday. He and Jeff Samardzija are one of three sets of Major League teammates with at least seven quality starts each. The others are the Tigers' Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer and the Braves' Julio Teheran and Aaron Harang.
Hammel ranks fourth in the National League in WHIP (walks plus hits per innings pitched), which is the statistic he feels pitchers should be graded on.
"I just know that after awhile, you figure out -- if you don't let them on base, you don't have to deal with them," Hammel said.
Cardinals: Wong ready for another chance
Having seen what they needed from Wong during his two-week return to Triple-A, the Cardinals recalled the second baseman on Wednesday. If Wong can recover from the stomach illness that earned him an early dismissal upon returning, he will be in the starting lineup Thursday.
"We believe in what he's doing right now," Matheny said. "He went and did what we asked him to do -- which was figure out his swing and get locked back in and come back here and try and jump in like he was in the beginning."
Wong was hitting .225 when the Cardinals sent him down to Triple-A in late April. At the time, he was also in a 4-for-28 skid and frustrated with the feeling of his swing. He found his timing quickly with Memphis and returns after hitting .382/.484/.867 with 14 runs scored, five stolen bases and 10 RBIs in 15 games.
Though the Cardinals still have Mark Ellis as an option, Wong is expected to get the majority of starts at second base.
Worth noting
• Samardzija will start Friday when the Cubs' open a five-game homestand against the Brewers. The right-hander ranks second in the Major Leagues in ERA (1.45) but is winless in eight starts.
"The wins thing to me is frustrating, because in general, it's a stat that we've all moved away from," Hoyer said. "The way he's pitched, I think he's been as good as anyone in the National League. It'll be nice one day if he didn't have his best stuff and people picked him up."
• Cardinals right-hander Jason Motte, who is nearing the end of his Tommy John rehab, is expected to make his next appearance with Triple-A Memphis on Thursday. He threw a scoreless inning (14 pitches, 10 strikes) for Memphis on Tuesday.

- ―Legendarymotorsport.net description.
The Pegassi Infernus is a luxury sports car that was first introduced in Grand Theft Auto III and has appeared in every GTA title (except Grand Theft Auto Advance) since and has gained a reputation for being one of the oldest sports cars to still be in a vast number of GTA titles.
3D Universe
Between Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, the Infernus has appeared in three different forms, each illustrating the car as a sleek, low-profile sports car comparable to the Cheetah.
In Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, it is a cross resemblance between a Jaguar XJR-15 and a Jaguar XJ220. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, it closely resembles a Lamborghini Countach, but lacks the characteristic scissor doors, and features bulged headlights and rounded taillights. In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Infernus strikingly resembles the first generation Honda NSX and Cizeta-Moroder V16T, which is the original design of the Lamborghini Diablo prototype before it was changed by Chrysler.
Although the Infernus' design suggests an RMR layout in GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, it's engine is visible under the front hood, possibly due to limitations of the game engine. The GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories renditions reposition the engine to the back, as the front compartment is revealed to be the trunk. The GTA Vice City Infernus, however, still emits smoke from the front when damaged. The GTA San Andreas Infernus stays in a front mounted engine, all wheel drive layout.
In GTA San Andreas, the Infernus can be modded at any TransFender modification garage.
HD Universe
The Grand Theft Auto IV rendition, manufactured by Pegassi, is largely based on the first generation Lamborghini Murciélago combined with the side-panelling of a Lamborghini Diablo (most notably the side windows) and the rear fascia and venting off an early model Pagani Zonda and Spyker C8, making the Infernus one of the only "exotic" cars in GTA IV. The car features an RMR configuration, allowing a favorable structural advantage over front-engine vehicles in aggressive driving conditions. The Infernus may spawn with a rear spoiler as an extra. Also, the Infernus is capable of supporting a second body color for a stripe over the side skirts, though it is not utilized on any standard car. The Infernus in GTA IV is also the only car in the entire series to feature scissor doors (likely to pay homage to Lamborghini). This design trait allows the Infernus' doors to be self-closing, relying on gravity to fall shut from its opened position. Also featured are small, racing-style wing mirrors. The interior is fully finished in black leather and sports the same Lamborghini-style sport seats as the Comet. Sections of the dash and transmission tunnel are finished with carbon fiber accents.
The Infernus in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is only available without a spoiler, and features conventional doors. In addition, players who pre-ordered GTA Chinatown Wars from Amazon are able to purchase a bulletproof Infernus at the Auto Merchant early in the game.
The Infernus returns in Grand Theft Auto V and appears to be unchanged from Grand Theft Auto IV except for the rim design. The rims on the Infernus match the rims used on the Lamborghini Reventón, a limited production car based on the Murciélago. Unlike the GTA IV version, the Infernus can be modified with some parts such as the rear wing and exhausts.
3D Universe
The Infernus' handling remains similar between GTA III and GTA Vice City, but in San Andreas, even though it is powered by a V6, it is the fastest car in the game with a top speed close to 156 mph (250 km/h), and its all wheel drive system means the car has good front grip. However, the car suffers from understeer due to its small wheels and wheel wells. Caution must be ensured when braking as the wheels usually lock up during high speed braking. Power distribution is considered smooth, but due to its high power output, moderation must be used when taking turns, otherwise fishtailing may ensue. Its suspension in GTA III and GTA Vice City, however, is softer, allowing it to drive over curbs without jolting the car substantially or bottoming out. Additionally, the drag multiplier is only 1, which means it is the most aerodynamic sports car in the game. This probably answers why it is often a bit difficult to handle.
HD Universe
The Infernus is considered to be the fourth fastest car in GTA IV (first without its DLC installed) with a top speed of 215 mph (347 km/h). It is highly susceptible to deformation from high-speed impacts, due to its light body construction and rear mounted engine. Windshield Ejection is also common due to the lack of substance in the front of the car. The Infernus is one of the best racing cars, but does suffer from understeer during high speed turns. It is laid out in a mid-engined all-wheel drive layout, like most Lamborghinis. The mid-engine configuration makes it unlikely to break down or be set aflame from front-end collisions. While reversing, the Infernus can be easily turned 180 degrees with a mere nudge of the steering wheel, which can be useful after losing control of the vehicle. The Infernus has the same engine sound as the Comet and the SuperGT. And, like the Banshee, Buffalo, F620, Sultan RS, and Bullet GT, the Infernus burns excess fuel from its exhaust when shifting gears. The Infernus has an ABS feature just like the real life Lamborghini Murciélago.

Unique Variants
In GTA 3, D-Ice is known to own a unique pear-red or metallic blue Infernus. In the mission where you have to drive it to a garage to defuse a bomb in it, you can save it in a garage, but only when failing the mission. This car is also seen in the mission Grand Theft Auto.
Vice City and Vice City Stories
In GTA Vice City, Lance Vance is depicted to be driving a uniquely white Infernus, which can be seen and driven during Back Alley Brawl and Guardian Angels. After obtaining Diaz's mansion in Rub Out, the regular Infernus parked next to the garage will permanently appear white, implying the car belongs to Lance. Given its permanence, the car is easily and always obtainable from this point on.
The White Infernus reappears in Grand Theft Auto:Vice City Stories at Lance Vance's Apartment in Ocean Beach after the mission From Zero To Hero but is not unique because there are Infernuses with the same color driving around the city.
In GTA IV, an Infernus previously owned by Bryce Dawkins is given to the player by Bernie Crane after completion of his mission Buoys Ahoy. The car sports unique black stripes on the side skirts and one of two unique bright orange colors.
The same orange Infernus is also featured in The Lost and Damned during Knowing Me, Knowing You, and can be obtained by parking it at a safehouse, and waiting for the time limit to run out. Johnny will get out, and the car will be locked. Get into another vehicle and drive around the block. When you come back, the Infernus will still be there, unlocked and ready for driving.
During Stevie's Car Thefts, Stevie will require a unique golden Infernus parked near the Soldiers Memorial in Downtown Broker, and can be found parked next to the Pizza Salad Restaurant. Like all of Stevie's desired cars, it will respawn until it is delivered to his garage, allowing the player to keep one for themselves.

- Sometimes seen driving in Starfish Island.
- Parked next to the garage at El Swanko Casa safehouse.
GTA IV + Episodes from Liberty City
- An Infernus can be encountered relatively early on if one spawns as a competitor (or in traffic) during Brucie's street races. These can be stolen, although killing an opponent and stealing their car will forfeit the race, lowering Brucie's approval rating.
- The player will get a special colored Infernus from Bernie Crane for all Niko's help.
- In GTA IV Multiplayer it is quite common, and can be seen driving around the streets of Liberty City.
- Riding an NRG 900 around, especially around Star Junction, may cause an Infernus to spawn eventually.
- Can rarely be seen on Union Drive East near Middle Park East at night driving another supercar.
- As with most cars, Infernuses will spawn more readily once the player is already driving one. Approaching the South Bohan safehouse from the southern bridge may be a good way to spawn parked Infernuses near a convenient storing place.
- Driving a Ruiner will eventually spawn an Infernus in Bohan but it will take awhile for it to appear.
- Driving a Turismo around Star Junction or southern Algonquin may eventually cause an Infernus to spawn (TBoGT only).
- In The Lost and Damned, it is only seen in the mission "Knowing Me, Knowing You."
- In The Ballad of Gay Tony, the Infernus was made more common and tends to spawn around Star Junction, Westminster and other central parts of Algonquin.
- Also in The Ballad of Gay Tony, it is very common in other parts including The Meat Quarter, Lower Easton, Suffolk.
PLEASE NOTE: Infernus won't appear around Liberty City until you complete this mission: Buoys Ahoy (for GTA IV)
GTA Chinatown Wars
- The car can be obtained from many locations, though seems to be popular in Algonquin.
- Can be bought at the Auto Merchant for $1000.
- Spawns in a driveway of a house in Beachgate, Broker.
- Found in the parking lot at the Vespucci Beach in Vespucci.
- Spawns at the car park at The Richman Hotel in Richman, Los Santos.
- The Infernus is rare, though more common if the player is driving another high-end sports car in the more prestigious areas of Los Santos such as Rockford Hills.
- Spawns at Pacific Bluffs along the row of the houses of Isiah Friedlander.
- Spawns often when driving a Turismo R anywhere in Los Santos.
- Can be bought for $440,000 from Southernsanandreassuperautos.com.
GTA Online
- Can be bought for $440,000 from Legendarymotorsport.net.
- It will rarely spawn if the player is driving in the same prestigious areas of Los Santos.
- It is the only car that has a different door opening animation then all other normal cars in the game.
- In GTA V, there is a stripper with the same name as the car.
- During development of GTA III, one of the earliest known names given to the car is the "Dyablo", a nod to both the Lamborghini Diablo, the real-life car it is based on, and the Diablos gang. The Diablos' gang vehicle was to be the Infernus, but was changed for being too flashy.
- The beta version of the Infernus shares an uncanny resemblance to the Lamborghini Diablo and is illustrated without a rear spoiler. It is depicted on the Capital Autos website.
- The Infernus plays the following radio stations by default when entered:
- GTA San Andreas: Radio Los Santos
- GTA IV: The Vibe 98.8
- Episodes from Liberty City: K109 The Studio or Vice City FM
- GTA V: FlyLo FM
- In GTA IV, after collecting all thirty cars for Stevie, he agrees to purchase cars from Niko Bellic, with the Infernus fetching $10,000.
- In GTA IV, the beta Infernus had body colored headlights instead of the carbon fibre ones.
- In GTA VC, the Infernus has the same engine sound of a Banshee; in GTA VCS, the Infernus has the same engine sound of a Stinger.
- If the player takes an Infernus to a Pay 'n' Spray too many times it will turn a unique, dark green color. This color will then be permanent, and no amount of subsequent resprays will change it. This is most likely a glitch, as almost every other car in the game will continually cycle through its available colors each time you visit a Pay N' Spray. The exceptions are the Buffalo and Stretch E from The Ballad of Gay Tony, the Dukes, the Banshee and the PMP 600, which all suffer from similar glitches.
- The Infernus in GTA IV has no front turning indicators nor a trunk. The absence of a trunk is seen after some frontal crashes, and Infernuses with front indicators can be seen on the TV commercial of "I'm Rich".
- Under the "Chinatown Wars" section of the Rockstar Games Social Club website, members may download a printable papercraft model of an Infernus. The vehicle's design is more rooted to the GTA IV rendition, and is obviously more detailed than the GTA Chinatown Wars rendition.
- The Infernus is the most expensive car in the GTA IV era with a price tag of $150,000, followed by the Turismo with a price tag of $130,000 and the Super GT with a price tag of $110,000.
- Although the Infernus itself is the most expensive car in GTA IV, when you sold the car to Stevie, he will only pay $10,000, even though he will pay a Super GT or a Turismo for $11,000.
- The Latin word Infernus means "being underneath" and is often translated as "Hell". The name may also refer to how the engine of the Infernus is located in the middle of the car or "being underneath" the driver. Also, it's a direct reference to Diablo (devil for Spanish), which is the car the Infernus is primarly based upon.
- In GTA IV, the Infernus does not have its own door opening/closing animation for its scissor doors, the animation for it is the same as every other car.
- In GTA Vice City, when you damage the Infernus too much, and at the same time break the trunk out, you will see that the smoke is coming from the trunk.
- In GTA Vice City Stories, the Infernus is equipped with an AWD drivetrain (20% front/ 80% rear torque distribution). With such speed and power it is great for cruising along the beach, although it's turning radius will suffer. The AWD drivetrain can be easily seen by flipping the car over; switching between the hand-brake and regular brakes, while applying gas.
- The back of the Infernus has 5 exhaust pipes, similar to the 4 exhaust pipes at the back of a Pagani Zonda.
- The beta version of GTA Vice City had an Infernus with rectangular lights, different wheels and a bigger spoiler.
- The Infernus and the Bullet are the only cars in GTA San Andreas to have working foglights.
- The Infernus's seen in the Vice City trailers have a different wheel design then the final car, using the same design as GTA III"s sports car wheel design. Whether this is a beta or not is unknown, but the design was cut.
- The Infernus is the fastest car in GTA San Andreas followed by Turismo and Bullet.
- In GTA IV, a bug is present in the Infernus and this same bug is also present in the Landstalker. When reversing, there is a faint white reverse light on the front badge.
- In GTA IV, being a sports car, when the Infernus shifts gears, it backfires, burning out the unburned fuel that accumulates in the exhaust, shifting backfires are also present with the beater versions of some cars and to the Banshee, F620, Bullet GT, Sultan RS, Buffalo (rarely), and Coquette (sometimes).
- In GTA IV, its episodes and GTA V, you can never leave the Infernus door opened as it will close itself due to gravity.
- In GTA IV the Infernus resembles a Lamborghini Murciélago with a Pagani Zonda rear. This is likely a reference to the Lamborghini Murciélago and Pagani Zonda rivalry in the 2000s, as it was featured at the same time in Top Gear series 1 episode 1.
- Despite its high value and appointments, Niko's girlfriends in GTA IV are generally unimpressed with the car, with some noting that it doesn't suit Niko's style (even though they tend to approve of the similar Turismo).
- In GTA Online, the car is considered a premium vehicle. If the car is stolen and not bought online, it counts as 'too hot' when taken to LS Customs so it cannot be modified, sold, or stored in a garage.
- The taillights on the Infernus resembles a Pokeball from Pokémon.

Sacramento Group Forming
Hi again everyone - Reena and I met for dinner last Friday and had a great time! We talked about starting a regular group - keeping things light at first to get to know people, also connected with a regular weekend mass somewhere in the area. We think this approach would appeal to a wide variety of people, different age groups, different single statuses, both genders, but all ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC.
Anyway, the next weekend I am without kids and available to do some kind of organized event - however simple or complex it may be - is Memorial Day weekend. Saturday evening mass and dinner after? Sporting event? Festival of some kind? Hike by the river? Theater production or concert? My input is that it be light and really conducive to conversation and mixing. Perhaps someone's parish has a room for a pot luck after mass or something?
ANYONE within driving distance who wishes to work with Reena and I on some ideas, please chime in on this forum and keep them coming! Praying that this gets going ----

Grand Tomes (Set of 3)
During the French Revolution, reading was forbidden in order to prevent the spread of rebellious stories about the monarchy. During that time, printers produced couverture muette or "mute books" – books with blank covers – to avoid detection. Paying homage to those historic 18th-century tomes, these exquisite books are entirely crafted by hand, from the torn paper and simple cover boards to the naturally stained linen bindings and timeworn labels. The only difference? The pages within are blank.

Drug information provided by: Micromedex
Immune globulin injection belongs to a group of medicines known as immunizing agents. It is used to prevent or treat diseases that occur when your body has a weak immune system. Immune globulin contains antibodies that make your immune system stronger. It is used for patients who have primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI), idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura, and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). It is also used as a maintenance treatment to improve muscle strength and disability in patients with multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN).
This medicine is to be given only by or under the supervision of your doctor.
Once a medicine has been approved for marketing for a certain use, experience may show that it is also useful for other medical problems. Although these uses are not included in product labeling, immune globulin is used in certain patients with the following medical conditions:
This product is available in the following dosage forms:
In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For this medicine, the following should be considered:

Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated pediatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of immune globulin injection in children. However, safety and efficacy have not been established in children with CIDP, safety and efficacy have not been established for Flebogamma®, Gammagard Liquid®, or Gammaplex® to treat MMN, and subcutaneous injection of Gammaked™ or Gamunex®-C in children with PI. Safety and efficacy have not been established for Gammagard Liquid to treat PI, with Hizentra® or Vivaglobin® in children younger than 2 years of age, use of Gammaplex® in children with PI or ITP, or use of Octagam® in children to treat chronic ITP.
Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated geriatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of immune globulin injection in the elderly. However, elderly patients are more likely to have age-related blood clotting problems, kidney disease, or heart disease, which may require caution for patients receiving immune globulin injection.
Studies in women suggest that this medication poses minimal risk to the infant when used during breastfeeding.
Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. Tell your healthcare professional if you are taking any other prescription or nonprescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) medicine.
Certain medicines should not be used at or around the time of eating food or eating certain types of food since interactions may occur. Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. Discuss with your healthcare professional the use of your medicine with food, alcohol, or tobacco.
The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of this medicine. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:
A doctor or other trained health professional will give you or your child this medicine. This medicine is given through a needle placed in one of your veins, as a shot into one of your muscles, or as a shot under your skin.
This medicine comes with a patient information insert. Read and follow the instructions carefully. Ask your doctor if you have any questions.
While you or your child are being treated with immune globulin injection, do not have any immunizations (vaccines) without your doctor's approval. Live virus vaccines should not be given for 3 months after receiving immune globulin.
The Gammagard Liquid, Gammaked™, Gamunex®-C, Hizentra®, and Vivaglobin® products may sometimes be given at home to patients who do not need to be in the hospital or clinic. They are given as an infusion under your skin once every week. If you or your child are using this medicine at home, your doctor will teach you how to prepare and infuse the medicine. Be sure you understand how to use the medicine.
Do not change the brand or type of your immune globulin unless your doctor tells you to. If you or your child must change the brand or type of medicine, talk to your doctor before giving yourself an injection.
If you or your child are using Gammagard Liquid, Gammaked™, Gamunex®-C, Hizentra®, or Vivaglobin® at home, you will be shown the body areas where the medicine can be given. Use a different body area each time you give yourself an infusion. Keep track of where you give each infusion to make sure you rotate body areas. This will help prevent skin problems.
Allow the Gammagard Liquid, Gammaked™, Gamunex®-C, Octagam®, or Vivaglobin® brand to reach room temperature before using it.
Hizentra® may be given on a weekly (starting this medicine 1 week after the patient's last IGIV infusion) or on a biweekly dosing regimen (starting this medicine 1 or 2 weeks after the patient's last IGIV infusion or 1 week after the last weekly Hizentra® infusion).

What do you think of the
Castelli CW 4.0 Donna Women's Gloves
? Share a...
Amanda B.
These gloves are great!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These gloves are frequently used in temps in the mid 30s and my hands stay decently warm, actually. They fit well, have held up well over the winter, and look nice. I would buy these gloves over and over again if need be. A worthwhile winter riding glove.
Only good to around 40/45 deg F
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I got these thinking they would would be warm enough for late Fall / early Spring riding in Chicago. They are not that warm - even with the Thinsulate and Windstopper. Other brands make much thinner gloves that are a lot warmer, i.e. Pearl Izumi, Craft. These gloves were also severely disappointing in the wind. I took them out to Northern CA for Winter riding there and I thought they were Ok. Temps were never below 45. They look nice and are well constructed, but if you live somewhere that regularly gets below 40, I would look else where.
Not that warm and odd proportions
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: Runs small
These were not as warm as I had thought - for late-winter riding on the east coast (30s-low 40s) these would not cut it. Another con is that the only padding is on the side palm- multiple touch points for padding would be better. Lastly, the sizing proportion seems to be off. I have quite small hands and while the S fit generally ok, the index fingers were too small/seams were harsh.

FANTASTIC for cold weather riding
- Gender: Female
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Boy have I loved these gloves. My hands were getting so cold on rides so I indulged in these gloves and have NOT be disappointed at all. I was a bit nervous they might be too cold in the fingers but they are really wonderful. Worth every penny. I love Castelli stuff...plan on buying all my gear now in Castelli or Gore. My 2 new favorites.
i need the warmest gloves for 30 degrees...
i need the warmest gloves for 30 degrees weather
Debbie C
For the warmest gloves, you'll want a style called "lobster claw". They are like mittens for bike use, and work the same way as regular mittens, only the fingers are divided into 2 separate compartment keeping each 'set' of fingers warmer than if each were separate. So, that would be the first thing to look for. Something to help block wind/wetness, too, plus of course, excellent insulation.
You can also read more reviews on a great site called mountain bike reviews at: www.mtbr.com...for anything bike-related.
Hope this Helps for Your Next Winter Riding Season!

Md. high court overturns murder convictions
Wednesday - 4/3/2013, 9:30pm EDT
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- Maryland's highest court has overturned the murder convictions in a double slaying in 2003 because a judge replaced a juror without notifying the defendant.
The Court of Appeals on Wednesday also overturned the life sentence given to Jaron Tyree Grade in the shooting deaths of Broadus Funderburk and Ricardo Cabera in Essex.
The court ruled unanimously that Grade's right to a fair trial was violated when the judge replaced a juror with an alternate without first notifying the defendant.
The judge was told a juror had an emergency and would be late. The judge replaced the juror with an alternate and deliberations started.
Baltimore County State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger tells The Daily Record (http://bit.ly/16xvrUL) that his office will review the case to see if a new trial will be conducted.

NEW CASTLE, Del. - - The bats broke out in a big way for the Wilmington University baseball team, as they scored six runs in the bottom of the fourth to take command and defeat Post University in a non-conference matchup between Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference foes, 12-7, on Wednesday night at Wilson Field.
Wilmington (8-4) collected 18 hits including five doubles and a triple and had strong middle relief to close out the contest. Post (4-9) picked up four extra base hits and led 1-0 after the first inning and 3-1 after the third inning before surrendering the lead for good.
With one out in the bottom of the fourth, the Wildcats used back-to-back-to-back singles by Adam Soley, Kyle Hitchens, and Frank Samluk to load the bases. Jordan Johnson, normally the tablesetter for a big run scoring inning, sliced a double just inside the third base bag, easily scoring two runners and putting two more in scoring position. Johnson's double tied the game at 3-3.
After the Eagles made a pitching change, Joe Harbach rudely welcomed Andrew Harris to the mound with a two run triple down the right field line. On the next pitch, Mike Godwin smacked a doubled to the warning track in left, easily scoring Harbach from third to make it 6-3 in favor of the Wildcats.
On the very next pitch, Jordan Oncay continued the onslaught with a single throw the hole in right and advanced to second as the Eagles let the ball go all the way through to the catcher. With Godwin at third, Bryan Miller tacked on the final run of the inning with a sacrifice fly to center field, turning a 3-1 deficit into a 7-3 advantage in one at-bat.
The Eagles retaliated with two runs in the fifth, capitalizing off a leadoff triple by James Wong. Alex Villar singled home Wong two batters later and Todd Blair eventually came around to score on a Taylor Carr single, closing the gap to 7-5.
The Wildcats tacked on another run in the fifth to keep Post at an arm's reach and put the game away with three more runs in the bottom of the seventh. Hitchens hit a double to left center, scoring pinch hitter Brendan Fallers from second after leading off the inning with a free pass. Now with two outs and Hitchens on third, Johnson roped one back up the middle for another RBI single. After an error kept the inning alive, Johnson came around to score on a wild pitch, pushing the lead to 11-5.
Pinch hitter Joe Marciano put the final run on the board for the Wildcats with a single through the right side in the eighth, scoring Fallers from second.
Nick Marics worked out of a jam in the ninth, but only gave up two runs to secure the victory for the Wildcats. The win was the team's third in a row and fourth in the last five games.
Tim Racek picked up the victory, throwing the fourth and fifth innings for Wilmington. He gave up two runs on three hits, but did not give up the lead the offense gave him while pitching through the fifth inning. Ray Gambone got the start on the hill, throwing three innings before handing it over to the bullpen. Tyler Fries, Dave Hatt and Rob Gore all threw 1-2-3 innings to get to Marics and the ninth.
Godwin went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored while Hitchens finished 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and three runs scored. Samluk went 3-for-5 on the day, picking up the first hit of his career with a bunt single in the second. Johnson led all hitters with four RBIs while also scoring two runs in a 2-for-5 batting effort.
Wilmington will look to remain hot at the plate tomorrow, as they head to Chestnut Hill for another non-conference tune-up with a CACC foe. The Wildcats will open conference play on Saturday, as they host Dominican for a doubleheader starting at noon. Thursday's game is slated for a 4 p.m. start.

The News Feed
The organization of corporate news and information websites is remarkably consistent, and has been for some time. You can picture it now: a top or left navigation menu of broad categories, with the rest of the page organized into a multi-column clutter of headlines, blurbs, images, promotions, and ads. It has come to be called the "magazine" style because of its similarity to the layout of physical newspapers and magazines.
However, users are increasingly getting news and information from other sources. One type of source is a personal aggregation platform, such as Facebook, Twitter, Digg, an RSS reader, and so forth. These sources require more flexible and automated layouts, in contrast with the carefully editorialized layouts of corporate news websites.
In addition, more and more users are getting news and information on their mobile devices—a platform where the magazine-style, multi-column layout isn't possible due to screen size limitations.
The predominant model for both the personal aggregation platforms and for mobile devices is the news feed. The magazine and newspaper layout was the mental model during the transition from printed to digital content. However, the news feed is native to the digital format, and is much more ideal for presenting digital content.
Defining the News Feed
I define the news feed broadly as a single-column display of content objects, such as articles, article snippets, blog posts, tweets, or links. These objects are serial, in reverse chronological order, and without sorting options. Prioritization is indicated by placement within the feed, and sometimes by visual weight. Usually the feed is accompanied by some filtering or supporting information in a sidebar, and perhaps a few featured content objects.
Why It Works
The news feed has several attributes that make it ideal for digital content presentation:
- It fits with online user behaviors and browsing styles
- It is an efficient, practical design solution
- It has cross-platform versatility
1. It fits with online user behaviors and browsing styles
Users are impatient, and they want simplicity. I've seen this in user testing we've done at Lunch.com, where I work, as well as in past focus groups and user research projects. News feeds are simple. They're perfect for the lazy, impatient scanner. They require no diagonal scanning, and there are no ads to avoid, nor any confusion about what to look at first. News feeds allow for a dead simple, downward, vertical eye movement.
This contrasts with corporate news websites, such as NYTimes.com. When you go there, what do you see first? What's prioritized? Where do you start? The layout is complicated and you find your eye jumping and shifting all over the page. Now go to Facebook. The layout is simple—you start at the top of the page and move down. It's easy, and perfect for the impatient mindset of the average Web user.
2. It is an efficient, practical design solution
For sites where the user is personally aggregating content from multiple sources, such as Twitter, Facebook, Digg, RSS readers, or email inboxes, the news feed model is a very practical way to solve that design problem. The content aggregated by different users can vary widely, and the presentation needs to be flexible enough to accommodate these variations. So how can a single interface work for someone who's following 500 people, as well as for the new user who is only following a couple friends? The same way the email inbox is organized—in order of recentness.
It's also easy and fast to add new stories. Compared with the magazine style, where adding one story requires the publisher to shuffle around the rest of the content to make room, the news feed is easy. Just add a new story to the top and everything shifts down.
3. It has cross-platform versatility
This is crucial, and may be the most important reason that news feeds are the best way to present digital content. There is every indication that information consumers will continue to become more splintered across a wider array of device resolutions, interfaces, product types, and so on. Refactoring content for each new device has a continually diminishing ROI; each version will reach a smaller and smaller percentage of the audience.
News feeds are simple, so they expand and collapse gracefully, regardless of form factor. For interfaces on computer monitors, such as websites in a browser, an article can have a larger snippet with a byline, thumbnail image, share links, a blurb from the article, and so forth. For the mobile device, the snippet can be condensed to just a title and thumbnail.
Clearly, devices have different methods of interaction (touchscreen vs. mouse-based) and lend themselves to different user behaviors (iPad users are more consumption-oriented than laptop users, who are more interactive). So, variation from device to device is certainly required, and advisable. However, the less that has to be reinvented, the easier it will be to manage various sites and apps, and the more familiar users will become with a site's structure.
Examples of This Change Already Taking Place
News and information websites are not stubbornly set in their ways, and seem to be experimenting quite a bit with simpler, feed-like displays:
- The Reuters website utilizes a two-column layout, one column with the latest news and the other one with featured stories. It's a very simple, scannable, and versatile design.
- With its latest redesign, CNN launched NewsPulse, which presents news stories in a single column display with filtering options.
- NYTimes has a product called the TimesSkimmer, which presents the day's top stories and allows the user to change their method of page organization.
The Digital Content Ecosystem
I've heard the argument that news feeds work great on personal aggregation sites and mobile devices where there is no other efficient display method, but sites such as CNN or NYTimes.com have dramatically different content, user needs, and business needs. How can you make a comparison between the two, and why should the design of one affect the other?
The reason it matters is that they are both within the same digital content ecosystem. The behavior of a user scanning Twitter and Facebook impacts their behavior when they visit other content websites. If I'm accustomed to using the CNN app on my mobile device, it's going to impact my expectations and browsing style when I visit their website on my laptop. Regardless of how usable a site is in a vacuum, when the user is rapidly jumping from site to site, or from their mobile device to their laptop, all their browsing experiences are deeply interrelated.
However, I am not suggesting that sites like NYTimes.com abandon their current layout and replace it with a single-column news feed. Their content is much too complicated to have such a simple display. However, as users consume more and more information on personal aggregation websites and on mobile devices, all content providers must evolve to meet these new user expectations and browsing styles, and come to think of the news feed as the default model for presenting digital content.
Add new comment
Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the pictures on this blog loading? I'm trying to find out if its a problem on my end or if it's the blog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
Ok I see now. Unfortunately I read only up to the examples and just had the "defining the news feed" and anti-multicolumn (magazine) stuff from the above section which read to me like "single column is the way" whereas e.g., Reuter's from your example is a multicolumn experience but has the single line title links as a means of merging scanability and volume.
In response to Carlos's excellent comment, I have a couple thoughts.
First of all, I want to clarify that I am not suggesting that all news websites convert their layouts to single-column news feeds, and I said as much in the last paragraph of the article. Obviously many sites have featured stories, weather reports, stock market summaries and countless other pieces of content that can't and shouldn't be displayed as part of a feed.
What I am saying is that content consumers are increasingly getting their content from feeds, and are becoming accustomed to that method of browsing. As a result, I believe that news sites should make use of more feed-like elements.
I mentioned Reuters.com as a site that is going in the right direction. It has a simple 3-column layout that is simply organized and is very conducive to rapid vertical scanning. The left column is a list of recent articles, partially organized by categories. However, a large portion of the page is still reserved for featured content, stock market summaries and so forth. I think this is an example of a complex news and information website evolving toward a news feeds-like layout.
Tech news sites like Techcrunch.com take the newsfeed layout even further, blurring the line between a blog and a news website.
A interesting point you bring up is about the 'luxuriating dimension to the reading experience', as you put it. What I've heard in focus groups and other sources is that a large percentage of users are not sitting quietly for an extended period reading a single news site. They're getting their news in many short bursts throughout the day, constanting jumping from one site to the next, to email, to their phone and so forth. For this type of user, I believe being efficient and presenting content simply is most important. To what degree do you think a luxuriating experience is relevant to this type of user, and how does it vary depending on the specific user, site and platform? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Thanks for your feedback!
I disagree totally with the single column prejudice. Yes it's ok for small screen mobile devices. But to reduce everything to the constraints of the narrowest browser is not a good direction. If his were really a superior information browsing experience they would have printed newspapers on toilet paper rolls. It's a far more efficient scanning experience to use a multicolumn approach with headlines and teaser text is space affords. Identifying the user agent to display single column or in other ways allowing the option is preferable to enforcing the single column read across all devices.
Eyescanning in the context of a screen like NYT is measured in milliseconds. Laziness doesn't have much time to intervene. Even for Americans. As someone who does a ton of reading in both formats, I find the tunnel-with-endless-scrolling experience to be no less work than sweeping with less physical scrolling.
There is a luxuriating dimension to the reading experience where more content exposure, images and information design create a richer and more diversely communicative scanning experience has quality factors that are not only more experientially rich than the ticker tape of text, but serve various types of info ergonomics. People often raise page content density as a rationale for a variety of arguments that are really non sequitors. Notwithstanding the validity of seeking to be efficient and economical, leveraging white space and such, people are able to identify word shapes and zones of gravity of focus in remarkably dense content displays. Of course we can, otherwise we would have been extinct long ago. I also have conducted tests of mind bogglingly dense directory pages and not only are users able to find their navigation options quickly, but they report that the content volume felt about right. This is of course the case where design and best practices for labeling and typography were at play. Certainly of there is ambiguity, poor clustering and design people will be confused. But if best practices are firing on all cylinders dense multicolumn page layouts are not worth sacrificing for the pseudo panacea of the single column browsing model.

As explained in the video here below, the U.S. military could undergo the most dangerous budgetary cuts ever.
As far as the Air Force is concerned, the 5th-generation fighter aircraft programs had widely been questioned already as a RAND study issued in 2008 (then withdrawn, following the Australian press statements about the JSF war game results), and the umpteen glitches encountered on the F-35 Lightning II shocked the public opinion. Not to mention the F-22 Raptor – its 67-billion-dollar program is questioned too as this amount of money, for instance, would be enough to finance the French defense budget for two years.
The F-22 air supremacy stealth fighter had numerous problems – Flight control software errors, OBOGS (On-Board Oxygen Generating System) investigated after U.S. pilots reported dizziness; and "Raptor cough", MADL (Multifunction Advanced Data Link) has been delayed, the U.S. 5th generation fighterjets – either JSF or RAPTOR – cannot outperform the 4.5-generation Dassault RAFALE multirole fighter aircraft in DACT (Dissimilar Air Combat Training), and so on. It is the taxpayers who must pay for this.
What will happen? Nobody knows. Leon Panetta, the Secretary of Defense, has already stated that "full sequestration would be devastating to DoD and the defense industry." The US military power could become a "paper tiger unable to keep up with potential adversaries." He added later, and – "In effect, it invites aggression."

Peach Scones
This is the ultimate summer biscuit- buttery biscuit, sweet peaches and a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar on top. The recipe is Joy the Baker's and it's genius- there's buttermilk in it which makes it soft and just a bit tangy and plenty of butter. The dough is very sticky but this makes the scone tender and moist when baked. I imagine it'll be super good split in half and filled with whipped double cream..

Move That Home Office Meeting to a Public Place
Meeting clients in public spaces is a solid alternative than meeting at your office, especially if you telecommute and that office is in your home.Although almost anyone that has a home office is proud of his or her environment, the home as "meeting space" is not always idea.

Are You Writing Well For The Web?
You've been to sites where the first page is text, text, text, right? Well, don't be one of those sites. Writing for the web is different than writing for print. Think about your own web surfing habits. Do you read each line? Or do you skim and hop to the content for which you are looking?So what do you need to know? First, keep your writing personalized and interesting. If your reader doesn't see something that grabs them, they will simply click onto something else. Let your firm's style and personality show through your writing.

Do consulting services affect audit independence?
Should accounting firms be concerned about performing consulting services for their audit clients? After all, auditors are in a natural position to spot inefficiencies that can wreak havoc on the bottom line. They can help a company cut the waste and grow. But should they? Does it put an accounting firm's unbiased audit approach at risk?Most accounting firms say that it does not compromise their audit approach. There also are already safe guards in place for publicly traded companies.

Recruiting Strategies
What? You just won an engagement that requires three more auditors and two more IT people? Yes, that's right – pronto! Never mind that the national unemployment rate is at an all time low. What you need is a recruiting plan that works now. These recruiting strategies will help you get people in the door and then give you an advantage once you get them there. The first place you can start with a very modest investment is internally. Your employees are the best employment advertising you can buy. They are your firm's advocates.

OSHA Says
Okay, you've known for quite some time that ergonomic issues were abound, but maybe you just haven't reached that item on your to-do list. It's time to move it closer to the top. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration recently proposed an Ergonomics Program standard. After discussions in early 2000, the final version of the standard will become mandatory by year end.So what does this mean to you? Well, it means that if you don't currently do the following things (see preliminary checklist below); you could legally be required to do so by the end of 2000.

Help is Here in Reading Brokerage Statements
These days, CPAs also are in the financial services business, and assisting clients in brokerage is a viable service and profitable venture.But have these professionals also taken a hard look at brokerage statements? Many are very difficult to decipher to ascertain whether a profit was made or lost.Edward Jones is an example of one firm that has taken the bull by the horns (pardon the pun) and soon will enable customers to choose from three different types of account statements.

Final Report on Federal Budget: No Big Changes
AccountingWeb has tracked a number of stories over the past few months on Congress and the President's battles over the Federal budget.Based on recent reports, now that the budget year ended Nov. 20, not balancing the budget really isn't so terrible, after all. Among the focus is how Social Security was protected, albeit concern by Republicans and Democrats on securing the senior vote next year.Also under tremendous scrutiny was the proposed Republican tax cut of $792 billion.

I think it's heartening how much improvement there's been.
On the other hand, basing feature support on a process name is likely something that you can never really live down.
I've been using fglrx with a 7770 for several months now and only have 4 complaints, none dealbreakers.
1. Tearing, but only in movies (It's not noticeable in the games I play, whereas it is really noticeable in movies). I also understand this is related to x11 architecture more than GPU/driver and that Wayland will finally make it so that it can be truely fixed?
2. Antialiasing. I'm not sure that it works at all in some applications. (Main reason I want GPU comparisons and reviews to include still screenshots that are 'diffed', or at least layered, so to speak.)
3. Video decode accel -- just make the stupid thing use VDPAU or VAAPI out of the box.
4. Fan control.
Also, I must be lucky as I haven't had any crazy issues with Wine, though I also mostly use it for stuff from GOG.

Long after I left home, my father bought a black dog. Its belly was partly white, which contrasted with its body. Every time my father opened the door to the garden, the dog would stick out its tongue and wag its tail because it thought they were going for a walk. Now that my father has passed away, I get to walk the dog. As I speak to all the people with whom he used to chat on his walks, I get flashes of memories of my father - and of a side of him I never knew.
My father was a bit plump; he looked grumpy and never laughed much. As time passed, he became smaller and smaller. My father hated being photographed, so I had hardly ever taken pictures of him. By the time we realized he had cancer, it was already in its final stage. I had to pick up my camera.

At age six, Hikari Hanazono was the best at everything, so when she challenged Kei Takishima to a wrestling match, she naturally assumed she would win. Unfortunately, she lost, he won, and the natural order was disrupted. Ever since, Hikari's entire life has been structured around beating Kei at SOMETHING. Unfortunately, try as she might Hikari always comes up just short.
Now he's the top student and athlete at their very exclusive high school and she's right beneath him at number two, (a position that is still, of course, completely unacceptable). And, just to complicate matters further, even as Hikari dedicates her life to somehow one-upping Kei, she's completely oblivious to the fact that Kei is actually in love with her!
