Cardiovascular disease, which includes heart attacks, stroke, and heart failure, accounts for 1 in every 3 deaths in the United States. For years doctors have chosen omega-3 rich fish oils to help support the cardiovascular health of their patients.‡ Thousands of clinical studies on omega-3 confirm its use in supporting heart health. But not all fish oils are the same. Scientific research confirms that 2 grams of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), the omega-3 fatty acid in fish oil most noted for its cardiovascular benefits, daily, helps lower triglycerides without raising LDL cholesterol (the "bad" cholesterol).‡
Norwegian Gold EPA 1000 Omega's exclusive multi-step refinement process ensures highly concentrated, ultra-purified omega-3 levels with no trans fats. Ultra-concentrated potency makes supplementation easy with fewer softgels per day.
Key Features:
- 1,000 mg of Omega-3 EPA per softgel
- All-EPA formula is supported by published clinical studies*
- Enteric coating for no fishy aftertaste
- Lipase-enhanced digestion
- Certified highest 5-star IFOS rating for purity, potency and freshness
- Enhanced with 1,000 IU vitamin D3
When Purity Matters Most
Norwegian Gold Advanced Fish Oils continuously receive the highest 5-star rating from the International Fish Oils Standards (IFOS) program, the world leader in Omega-3 testing. This certifies that each batch exceeds all U.S. and international pharmaceutical standards for freshness, purity and potency. Visit the IFOS website to monitor the test results of every batch of Norwegian Gold Advanced Fish Oils.
*Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA & DHA Omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. 1 Am J Cardiol 2011;108:682–90

AquaSox get talent boost
Outfielder Austin Wilson, the Mariners' second-round pick, is expected to join the team soon
Associated Press
Stanford right fielder Austin Wilson, the Mariners' second-round pick in this year's draft is reportedly headed to Everett to play with the AquaSox.

Outfielder Austin Wilson, Seattle's second-round pick, is expected to join the Sox on Saturday, according to a source within the AquaSox.
The Mariners have not announced the signing of Wilson, but the source said it was "99.9 percent" likely Wilson would arrive Saturday.
Everett manager Rob Mummau wouldn't confirm Wilson's arrival, but did say, "I think there's a chance he might come here, but that's not official."
Wilson is a big, strong, fast and very talented prospect who measures in at a mammoth 6-foot-5 and 245 pounds. He was considered a potential first-round pick, but fell to the Mariners at 49th overall after an injury-plagued junior season at Stanford University that limited him to 31 games. In those 31 games, he batted .288 with five home runs and 26 RBI.
Wilson's imminent addition will round out an impressive haul from this year's draft for the Sox. Seattle picked five players from four-year colleges in the first seven rounds of the draft. Four of those -- third baseman D.J. Peterson (first round), pitcher Ryan Horstman (fourth round), shortstop Jack Reinheimer (fifth round) and pitcher Tyler Olson (seventh round) -- are already on Everett's roster. The Sox also have a high-profile name from the draft in 12th rounder Justin Seager, the younger brother of Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager.
All of which makes it an exciting time to be an AquaSox fan.
"I think it's really nice, being that we're so close to Seattle," Mummau said. "Some of the fans can come out and check out some of these guys. I think it's great for the community and the Seattle Mariners."
This is the second straight year Everett has been the primary beneficiary from the draft. Last year, the Mariners drafted six college players in the first 10 rounds, and all six began their professional careers in Everett. That included catcher Mike Zunino, who was picked third overall, had a monster month with the Sox and is now in the majors.
The past two seasons are a complete departure from the previous years since Jack Zduriencik was hired as Seattle's general manager in October of 2008. In the first three seasons under Zduriencik, Seattle drafted 20 players from four-year colleges in the first 10 rounds. Just five of those played for the Sox as the majority began their professional careers at higher levels.

7 poisonous plants
What to avoid touching and/or eating in the great outdoors
Poison ivy
Rhus radicans
Poisonous to the touch, this plant has three leaflets that vary in size and shape, from jagged to round edges. It's often mistaken for poison oak. Growing in southern Canada, poison ivy can flourish in rocky areas, even to the point of carpeting the terrain. It can be found growing as a vine on trees and as a large or low shrub.
Poison ivy is a compound leaf plant that causes a skin rash (or severe oozing and a fever in extreme cases). Most potent in spring, it grows white, hard berries in the fall and remains poisonous all year—don't touch the bare branches in winter.
First aid tips: If your skin is exposed to the plant's oil, a reaction can take 12 hours to two days to develop. The oil can also stay on your clothes and furniture for days if they remain unwashed, which can result in more delayed reactions.
For relief: take an oatmeal bath, apply a cool compress to the affected skin, or take over-the-counter itch medication. If the irritation doesn't heal or becomes severe, see a doctor.

VIRGINIA BEACH -- A family finds their missing dog after someone spotted the pet at a nearby business.
Sean Palmer, his wife, Chris, their children, and pets moved to their home on South Plaza Trail from Kansas earlier this month. A week later, their 7-month-old Black Labrador Retriever, Buck, was gone.
'It's taken me many and many a dog to find the dog I truly bonded with that's gonna be good with my family, that I could take out in the woods and just like that, he comes running back to me,' said Sean Palmer. 'I love that dog.'
Chris Palmer let Buck and their other dog, Lily, out in the family's backyard March 15. When she heard Lily at the door, looking to come back in, she opened it. There was no sign of Buck. He got out of the yard.
A couple days later, the mailman told her the dog had been across the road in the parking lot of Advance Auto Parts. He added someone in a blue Ford Super Duty truck with a double set of back wheels was petting Buck. The Palmers believe the driver of the truck took the dog.
'It's one thing, I guess, if you lose a dog, but then to find out someone witnessed him being taken is a completely other thing. It's indescribable,' Chris Palmer told 13News. 'You know, it's someone's dog. He has a collar, and we were told, I guess, there's a 48-hour rule that if you pick up a dog, you have 48 hours to notify the proper authorities.'
'I can't really say that, you know, if I'd have found the dog, that I'd have went knocking on every single door, but I would have made some type of effort to say outreach to somebody and say, 'Hey, is this your dog?'' stated Sean Palmer. 'Like I said, I ain't never loved a dog before, never.'
The Palmers have looked around their area for Buck and kept in regular contact with animal shelters.
Buck was eventually located after someone recognized the dog at a local Uhaul dealership.

- Got A Question?
Editor's Note: This article is taken from the June issue of Professional Carwashing & Detailing®. You can access the full issue here. If you would like to submit an article or topic idea for the Management Tip of the Week, please e-mail Editor Kate Carr.
Have you ever thought about calculating the sales per square foot in your detail operation? That is, how many dollars are you getting from the space you rent or own for your detail business. It is a figure that will tell you a lot about your operation.
For example, a detail operation doing $200,000 in annual sales might not think they are doing as well as another detail shop up the street making $300,000. However, if the first shop is 3,000 sq. ft. and the second shop is 9,000 sq. ft., the two operations are actually very similar; each turns out about $34 in annual sales per square foot of production space. Assuming each detail shop operator pays a lease relative to the size of the space, the two businesses are neck and neck.
These calculations show you don't need a great deal of square footage in your shop to generate high dollars. In fact, some operators may want to consider downsizing their shop space in order to maximize their return on investment.
Here are some ideas you can consider to maximize production without adding square footage.
Extend your hours and days of operation
As an industry, detail shops are closed more than they're open. You should track how long each vehicle is in your shop. For example, if you keep a customer's car for two hours and you're only open eight hours a day, it's clear you're never going to be able to produce more than four cars a day.
There are a couple of ways to address this issue. First, there is technology — any equipment that will speed up the detailing process should be considered. Extending your operating days and hours is another way to make more revenue. Both wholesale and retail customers can provide business on Saturdays, and even Sundays. In fact, Saturday could be your busiest day of the week.
If you're not ready to add more hours or operate a day more per week then have one or more of your employees come in early in order to prep vehicles to have them ready for the detailers when they arrive.
Better scheduling
Like many detail business owners, you probably practice the "in at 8 a.m., out by 6 p.m." form of scheduling; bringing in a day's worth of vehicles in the morning and hoping to have them done at day's end. This might look like you have a full shop but your records might indicate differently. Production is typically slower when the shop is full and more cars have to be maneuvered around in order to complete services.
A simple solution is to try a "load leveling" scheduling. Figure out how many hours of production you can get through your shop in a week, and balance the schedule accordingly. In other words, even out your load by determining ahead of time how many vehicles or services you will complete each day and make arrangements accordingly.
This type of scheduling means vehicles spend less time in the shop before someone is actually working on them so, it improves cycle time. If you can better balance out your schedule, you will see that cycle times will drop and there will be an improvement in the hours produced per job order per day.
Get the shop organized
Even in smaller shops where a detailer doesn't have to go far to get the tool or chemical they need, a lot of that detailer's valuable production time can be wasted walking around or looking for something. The key is clearly indicating that everything has a place and everything in its place so no one is hunting around the shop for what they need. You must also train your employees to return these items to the correct locations.
Our observations have shown a detailer can improve production time by being more organized and we've determined that if we can help a detailer complete just three-tenths of an hour more labor a day that adds up to a lot of money per year.
At one shop we were evaluating, I watched a detailer spend several minutes looking at every bottle to find the one he needed. I suggested every detailer have his own set of chemical bottles and store them in a tray where they could be labeled and organized accordingly. It's a simple idea, but you'd be amazed how much time and money you can save in practice.
Better pre-detail inspection
Stopping a detail job midway through the process because the detailer isn't sure what to do hurts smaller shops especially hard. There isn't a lot of space to let the vehicle sit while the owner/manager explains what to do and it further reduces the volume for the day.
I recommend a process called "blueprinting" with the goal of eliminating, or at least reducing, such work stoppages. Before a vehicle comes into production, the service writer identifies on the work order everything to be done. The detailer reads the work order before bringing the car into the shop; asks questions, gets answers; then when everything is clear the vehicle is moved into the shop.
Does the vehicle sit idle under this system for a little time before starting the detail process? Probably. But I believe this is more than made up for by the rapid progress the vehicle makes through the detail without the interruption of waiting once the process has begun. It's a way to get more work through your shop without adding space or employees, or even burning employees out by pushing them too hard.
Better shop layout
If most detail business owners sketched out how vehicles actually move through their shop over several days, the drawing would very quickly resemble a tangled plate of spaghetti. A lot of time spent moving cars could be used for detailing if the shop's layout allows it.
Improving shop layout also involves freeing up as much floor space as by getting rid of empty barrels, unused equipment and anything "gathering dust."
Better materials handling
Whether you're in a metropolitan area and can get chemical and supply deliveries quickly, or in a rural shop that has to have materials shipped in, cut off times are critical to turning big numbers in a small shop. If you order some critical supplies and the supplier's cut off time to get that order out is 2 p.m., you have to get the order in before then. So find out what the cut off times are for shipments, know your inventory and keep on top of your ordering.
If the most valuable space in your shop is the shop floor, then examine the items and machines you keep on the shop floor and what you can be moved, replaced or removed. For instance, if chemical barrels are taking up too much space, work with your chemical suppliers to purchase supply in smaller containers at the same price.
Wall mounted racks can provide places for chemicals and supplies that might otherwise be taking up floor space. Suspend from the ceiling what you can; a step ladder is all that's needed to get these items up or down from this storage area, or a pipe rack can even be outfitted with a counter weight system so it can be pulled down to get what you need.
Nearly every shop owner at some point has wished for more shop space, but most shop owners — even those with small shop footprints — can find small ways to boost production without spending a dime on expansion.

Edema facts
Reader Stories
What is edema?
Reader Stories
Edema is observable swelling from fluid accumulation in body tissues. Edema most commonly occurs in the feet and legs, where it is referred to as peripheral edema. The swelling is the result of the accumulation of excess fluid under the skin in the spaces within the tissues. All tissues of the body are made up of cells and connective tissues that hold the cells together. This connective tissue around the cells and blood vessels is known as the interstitium. Most of the body's fluids that are found outside of the cells are normally stored in two spaces; the blood vessels (as the "liquid" or serum portion of your blood) and the interstitial spaces (not within the cells). In various diseases, excess fluid can accumulate in either one or both of these compartments.
The body's organs have interstitial spaces where fluid can accumulate. An accumulation of fluid in the interstitial air spaces (alveoli) in the lungs occurs in a disorder called pulmonary edema. In addition, excess fluid sometimes collects in what is called the third space, which includes cavities in the abdomen (abdominal or peritoneal cavity - called "ascites") or in the chest (lung or pleural cavity - called "pleural effusion"). Anasarca refers to the severe, widespread accumulation of fluid in the all of the tissues and cavities of the body at the same time.

I went on a 70 mile ride the other day 35 miles out about 25 minutes total each way in upper 40 to mid 50 degree weather and my hands got cool in these gloves. My hands never got cold but they did start feeling the coolness. They are really gool gloves for the price.

Set to "The Final Countdown," the trailer gives viewers taste of the antics the Bluths will experiencing this season, including an ostrich, plenty of Gob-style "illusions," and the return of Judy Greer as Kitty the secretary.
According to Indiewire, the unusual format for this season means that each episode will revolve around one of the main characters. Jessica Walter, who plays Bluth matriarch Lucille, said only two scenes from the entire season will feature the entire cast.

All Blacks hooker Andrew Hore has been given a five-week ban for striking Wales lock Bradley Davies with his arm, three of which will be pre-season.
Hore was found guilty of foul play on Wednesday and will not be able to play again until 24 February. He will miss New Zealand's Test against England this Saturday, three weeks of pre-season and one round of Super Rugby.
The All Blacks have already called up Hika Elliot (who had been touring with the NZ Maori) to provide hooker cover.
Judicial officer Lorne Crerar of Scotland revealed that Hore's eight-week ban had been reduced to five as the player had shown remorse and been in contact with Davies daily since the incident.

Alameda County Transportation Sales Tax Increase, Measure B1 (November 2012)
If Measure B1 had been approved, it would have permanently doubled the transportation sales tax paid in the county from half-a-cent to one full cent. Proceeds from this tax are targeted within the county to keep the roads in good repair.
A two-thirds supermajority vote was required for approval, because in California, when a local sales tax measure is earmarked for a specific purpose (as was the case with Measure B1), it requires a higher threshold for approval than local sales tax measures that are not earmarked for specific purposes.
Election results
|Measure B1
- Final certified results from the Alameda County elections office.
Ballot text
The question on the ballot:
| MEASURE B1: "Shall a new Transportation Expenditure Plan be implemented to address current and future transportation needs that:
Approval extends the existing County sales tax and increases it by 1/2 cent, with independent oversight, local job creation programs. No money can be taken by the state.[2]

The death of a well-respected local educator and pastor has left a sense of sadness that lingers in the community among educators, administrators, family and friends.
With family gathered around him, Gerald K. Johnson, former assistant superintendent of Human Resources for the Craven County Schools, died Tuesday at his home after an illness. He was 55.
"If you didn't like Gerald Johnson, it was probably something on your end," said Robert Kelley, who worked with him at the school system's central office.
Johnson had retired from the school system in 2012 after dedicating his life to children and education. A Christian, Johnson also had served as pastor at a church in Selma and was a recipient of North Carolina's Order of the Longleaf Pine Award from the governor.
Johnson was a native of Dover and graduated from West Craven High School in 1976. He went on to earn a bachelor's degree from Fayetteville State University and a master's degree from Ohio State University.
Johnson worked at schools in Lenoir and Jones counties. His career in the Craven County Schools system began in 1985, when he became assistant principal at Havelock Middle School.
Throughout the next eight years, Johnson would become assistant principal at James W. Smith Elementary School, then student services director for the school system.
In 1993, Johnson accepted the position of principal at J.T Barber Elementary School in New Bern. During his tenure at J.T. Barber, he helped transform the school into a North Carolina School of Excellence.
While serving as principal at J.T. Barber, Johnson was named the Wachovia Principal of the Year for Craven County in 2005. He went on to become the Southeast Region Wachovia Principal of the Year the same year.
He was well liked by students, parents and co-workers at J.T. Barber.
Former student Davon Drew attended the school during the fifth grade and recalled a specific memory of Johnson that he has held onto throughout the years.
"I remember when we got our Accelerated Reader points, he let us shave his head," Drew said.
Cheryl Eubanks worked for Johnson at J.T. Barber Elementary and would later work for him in the school system's Human Resources office.
"I worked for him for 14 years," she said. "All of my children went to school at J.T. Barber and they loved him. Everyone did."
Eubanks remembered that, as principal at J.T. Barber, Johnson brought life to the school and once rode a skateboard down the hallway while wearing a wedding dress.
"He was an ugly bride," she said.
Eubanks and others in the school system's Human Resources office spent much of Wednesday fielding calls about Johnson's funeral arrangements. Outside the office, a wreath with white roses and a picture of Johnson hung from the door.
"He is one of the finest men I've ever met," Eubanks said, fighting through heartbreak and tears. "The thing that stands out about him more than anything else is the love and integrity in which he treated people. He was a godly man and one of my dearest friends. We're really going to miss him."
Kelley recalled that Johnson's decision to leave J.T. Barber to become assistant superintendent was a difficult one.
"It was tough for him to leave the school because his life was in the school, but when he did come over, he made just as much of an impact here as he did in the school," he said.
Kelley said Johnson brought a different atmosphere when he moved to the central office, loosening everything up and making it lively.
Memories of Johnson date back to 1988 for Ervin Patrick, director of Human Resource Services at the central office. At that time, Patrick was in the fifth grade at James W. Smith Elementary.
"My first impression of Mr. Johnson was I thought he was the tallest man I'd ever seen," Patrick said. "He was just a very gentle spirit."
When he applied for a position at central office in 2006, Patrick never imagined Johnson would be on the other side of the desk to conduct the interview process.
"It isn't everyday that your elementary principal, mentor and supervisor becomes one of your very best friends, and that's how I consider Mr. Johnson," he said.
In 2012, after working as assistant superintendent for five years, Johnson retired.
In June, the media center at J.T. Barber was named "Gerald K. Johnson Media Center" to show appreciation for his many years and dedication to the students of the school.
Eubanks recalls that on her last visit with Johnson, he said he could not wait until he was better so he could read to the students in the newly dedicated media center.
A wake and viewing for Johnson is scheduled for Sunday from 6 to 8 p.m. at St. John Church of Christ in Dover. A celebration of life service is scheduled for 11 a.m. Monday at the United American Freewill Baptist Headquarters, J.E. Reddick Tabernacle, in Kinston.

A stronger voice on coal
In Oregon, there is the Morrow Pacific Terminal Project with transfer sites at the Port of St. Helen's north of Portland and at the Port of Morrow in Boardman. Two other proposals, including one at Coos Bay, are still in the whiteboard phase.
Except for Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber, however, the Northwesterners with the biggest mallets aren't playing.
In April, Kitzhaber wrote the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Bureau of Land Management and U.S. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, demanding a comprehensive and programmatic environmental impact statement (EIS) under the National Environmental Policy Act. The Oregon governor advanced a non-parochial approach, in his words, "to look at the unprecedented number of coal export proposals pending in the Pacific Northwest, as well as the potential effects in this country of the use of this coal in Asia."
China's energy appetite, fueled by the world's second-largest economy, will intensify, a reality confirmed by former Ambassador Jon Huntsman last week during a visit to the University of Washington. Similarly, China and East Asia will innovate, aping the United States and its shrinking domestic demand for coal. Less expensive, cleaner natural gas and renewables are eclipsing fossil fuel.
Footnote Kitzhaber's boldness with a smaller toolbox than Washington's. Oregon doesn't benefit from a State Environmental Policy Act that demands permitting agencies initiate thorough review of a project's potential environmental impact. And many non-electeds, such as Washington's Ecology Director, Ted Sturdevant, have been asking tough questions. Sturdevant sent a letter to the Corps calling for a cumulative impacts review and EIS on the Port of Morrow project. Now the political class, Kitzhaber notwithstanding, need to exhibit vision.
During the 2012 gubernatorial race, Governor-elect Inslee embraced a cumulative impacts analysis of coal export facilities, consistent with his pro-environmental record in Congress. Now, the governor-to-be is staying mum, just when a strong, clear voice is required. Writing in Publicola on Tuesday, Inslee presented his environmental agenda. Managing coal exports was a sin of omission.
Inslee might want to pipe up and fill the political vacuum. He can even participate in the scoping meeting to gauge community interest in Cherry Point on Dec. 13 at the Washington State Trade and Convention Center, from 4 to 7 p.m. The coal elephant isn't going away.

DIXON — The Bulldog is back.
Rookie Davis is no grizzled veteran — heck, the 19-year-old former Dixon High School star still can go days with only a whisper of whiskers.
But with a year in the New York Yankees' minor league organization, he learned more than a few things about pitching as well as the Yankee way of doing things, which he hopes will help him heading into his second spring training in Tampa later this month.
Davis also learned about himself.
"I feel I put in the work this off-season and my mindset was, I didn't want someone to outwork me," Davis said during a recent interview in his alma mater's weight room. "And I'm continuing to learn. There are plenty of guys that know more, and it'll always be that way.
"I didn't want to get down there and feel like someone had outworked me this off-season. So physically I told mom and dad and (Dixon) coach (Jack) Brown that I feel like I'm in the best shape I've ever been in right now.
"And mentally I'm working to get where I want to be. I feel like I'm in a good place. I feel like my focus is there where it needs to be."
The goal isn't exactly simple, but it is straightforward.
Davis wants to get to Charleston, where the Yankees have their full-season single-A team. But he also knows he could wind up remaining in Tampa for extended spring training and then be assigned to Staten Island, where the Yankees have a short-season single-A team.
That, Davis said, is the "worst case," which was not a judgment but simply the reality of life as a professional.
"But I'll at least know that I pushed myself," he said. "They may see me doing well in extended and think he's worked hard, let's give him a couple starts in Charleston and then when Staten Island starts I get moved there. But I don't have any control over that.
"My job is to push the envelope. I want them if they decide, 'Well, we're going to keep him in extended,' I want someone in that room to second-guess it. And while it may not change the group decision, I just want to do what I know I can do and get that edge that I had in high school.
"I had a bulldog mindset in high school, and this first year (in the minors) it was, you know, you're out there for three or four innings, and some days you'll start, some days you're behind the other starter, and it was hard to get that edge.
"I got the ball in high school and in my mind I knew I was going seven. I was going to come right at you, and I kind of lost that swagger, I guess you could say, that I had. But I've found that again, and I'm going to go out there and try to dominate this year."
Davis had a solid first year with the Yankees' Gulf Coast League rookie affiliate in Tampa, a year that certainly would have been more impressive had he not suffered a virus that saw him drop 25 pounds to go along with at one point battling a 104-degree fever.
Davis said he is only now recovered from the virus, which sidelined him for a month.
"I don't think people realize the physical toll that I took," said Davis, who weighs 238 pounds and looks like he's added another inch to his 6-foot-5 frame. "I'm just feeling now where I'm 100 percent."
Always under a strict pitch or inning limit, Davis finished with a 2-1 record and a 2.65 earned run average. He struck out 17 and walked 4 in 17 innings while allowing 17 hits and 9 runs (5 earned). Foes hit .250 against him.
For a teenager used to getting the ball and throwing seven innings every outing in high school, being in the
But never did he come in during the middle of a frame. That was the job of the pitchers the Yankees had tabbed as relievers. Beyond that, once he hit his pitch (or inning) limit, Davis would be pulled. He then would complete whatever work he needed to do in the bullpen while the game continued on.
"I got taken out of two or three games where I had two outs. I had three or four pitches left and I can't go over the pitch limit. So they'll take you out before you get to it. Then I would have games where I'd go four innings on 20 pitches.
"It's tough. There was a time when I threw four pitches in the first inning (and) eight in the second and had to go to the bullpen and finish my work for the day. That was frustrating because you're in a game, you're doing well, you want to keep going and the game's over.
"But it's a learning thing your first year."
This time around should be different. First, he'll be working under a new pitching coach, Gil Patterson, who came over from the Oakland A's. Second, Davis figures his pitch and inning limit would have to go up, right?
"I haven't heard yet," he said, adding with a new pitching coordinator some things were bound to change. "I would like to go seven innings every fifth day. I don't know one guy that wouldn't. But they have different cases for different people. For me, it may be a 65-pitch limit. For another kid it may be 75. They do things on a case-by-case basis."
Until Davis and his father, Billy, leave for Tampa on Feb. 16, the younger Davis will be working hard preparing for mini camp and then the start of spring training in early March. He knows his goal of being assigned to Charleston won't be easy.
"Charleston would be the limit, and that's really pushing the envelope for the Yankees. They're not known for promoting guys really fast. They like to take their time, especially with guys that they've got some money invested in. It's a business. The more money that is spent, obviously the more care," he said.
"Let's say I'm in Charleston dominating. They won't move me. I'll stay there or they may send me to Staten Island. It's a mental thing. They want you to feel good. I could have a 1.00 ERA in Staten Island and think, 'Why aren't they moving me?' It's because they don't feel like you're ready yet mentally.
"You go to Charleston and give up five runs in the first, that's going to take a hit on you. So they just want to make sure you've got a good foundation…. If you're dominating, you're dominating. And if you struggle, you've got to figure something out."
Either way, Davis didn't shy away from the importance of his second pro season.
"To me, this year is a big year," he said. "Last year I had good numbers, but I know that I could have had a lot better numbers if I would have been healthy. I hate to use this phrase, but I know a lot of people doubt what I can do now.
"People see me as a big, physical guy that's supposed to go deep into games, and I didn't live up to that. I understand that. I know some of it had to do with the health issue thing that I had. But to me this year it's a big year because I want to go out and show people what I'm capable of doing and ultimately show myself just how far I can push myself to do what I know I'm capable of doing."

MARK KEOHANE, in Business Day, writes, South Africa's Super Rugby challenge will benefit from the low class June internationals against Scotland and Italy.
Australia's players have the motivation of the British and Irish Lions – and it is showing in their Super Rugby challenge. But what is adding to their current position of strength could be their Achilles Heel three months from now.
It's what happens after the three-Test series against the combined efforts of the United Kingdom and Ireland that will determine who wins the 2013 Super Rugby.
Outside of World Cup years this is the biggest year for Australian Rugby because the Lions tour there only every 12 years. National considerations have to trump State aspirations and the hold Australia currently has on Super Rugby, by way of the Brumbies and Reds, could change once those players return from the high of being part of the Lions series.
A year ago the Crusaders looked the team to beat going into the June internationals. They'd just started to gain momentum and the core of their side took that form into a three-nil series win against Ireland.
The Crusaders players returned mentally and physically fatigued and their form never matched their class as players and they lost out on hosting a semi-final and got beaten away from home.
The key in this competition is to play the final at home. Teams still occasionally lose at home in a semi-final but the historical exception is to win away from home.
The expanded nature of the tournament and the introduction of a Conference System and a Play-Off System has changed the dynamic of the tournament.
There is a back door in through the play-offs, as the Sharks proved last year. They got back their injured players during the break, didn't have the disruption of losing the bulk of their side to the June Test series against England and showed the last six weeks of the tournament to be a tournament within a tournament.
The complicated and taxing nature makes it so difficult to envisage, let alone predict, just which two teams will have earned the right to play the final and just which one will have done enough to host it.
Currently there is a top three, a bottom four and eight teams who could be fourth or 11th on the table.
The Reds have deserved their winning run but they've yet to put together a performance that screams champions. Individual form of their Lions-series international aspirants has been at the heart of their challenge.
The Brumbies have looked world class but their defeat in Cape Town and their struggle at home against the Bulls and Kings post their South African trip showed vulnerability to fatigue and travel.
None of the New Zealand sides have shown desperation or the kind of desire we saw from the Brumbies and Reds in their 19-all draw.
And I put that down to the type of international year Dan Carter calls a 'nothing year'.
Carter, in a weekend interview, said the year post the World Cup was important to sustain any World Cup-winning momentum and the two years leading into the World Cup were crucial in building a World Cup challenge, and if there was one year in which there seemed nothing at stake it was the second post World Cup year.
New Zealand's players, in every franchise, are playing as if it is a nothing year, which doesn't mean the All Blacks will play like that.
I think the nature of the Australian season, in which the focus is the Lions, and the obvious lack of interest in New Zealand after the two year high of winning a World Cup and winning every title on offer last year, gives the advantage to South Africa in Super Rugby.
It doesn't mean a South African team will win it, but South Africa's players have the least demanding international programme and the Bulls, in particular, have a favourable home run in to the play-offs.
The Bulls and – to a lesser degree – the Sharks have done just enough to keep in touch with the Brumbies, Reds and Chiefs, and post the international season, what seems like an okay position now could in fact be a damn good position then.
I am still not convinced of the Cheetahs as semi-finalists. Nor the Stormers. Victory in Auckland will challenge that thinking.
The Sharks, despite the courage in making a game of it in Hamilton, are losing momentum and the Bulls, indifferent at times aganst the Tahs, are gaining in momentum.
To make an informed call now is impossible. There are play-off possibilities but there aren't yet four probabilities.
The situation of South Africa's Super Rugby challenge offers more than it discounts because of the undemanding South African international season.
Don't underestimate what the Lions and French will take out of our mates down south; something Scotland and Italy simply can't match.

Re: Welcome to the forums!
Good morning guys !
Have been reading around these pages last couple of days (inbetween learning for an exam) and I must say I'm so fascinated and inspired by them that I hardly could let go of them ;-)
I have also spent a lot of time looking videos on youtube and learning about all projects Jamie has initiated the last couple of years. I think it's so good and important that people come together and stand up for food sovereignty and take time to cook. I couldn't believe it when I heard that sometimes they don't even have kitchens in newly built homes.
What I like most about Jamies recipes is their simplicity! And you don't have to run around the whole town just to get hold of ingredients you hardly get anywhere.
What in my opinion is also very important is not only getting people back to cooking and growing their own stuff, it is also important to have sovereignty over the seeds we use. There are lots of efforts by companies to patent seeds (patents on life - horrific!). In consequence they deprive farmers and all others of the right to keep seeds for their own use! It's a kind of dependency that worries me a lot...not to say that seed diversity and old varieties are going to be lost for future generations...
Well, there's a lot more to say, but I have to go back learning...
Lots of love from Stuttgart, Germany

Hello, everyone! My name is Bethany and I am 23 years old. I love to cook! As of right now, I cook for my fiance and myself. Fun Fact: I have dual-citizenship from the USA and UK (I was born on RAFB Lakenheath). I have recently started a venture into my own little project about the benefits of doing things yourself (i.e. making your own pasta, grinding your own coffee, etc.) and am currently in the research stage. I currently attend an online university and am aiming for my Associates in Business Administration. If you wanna know more, don't hesitate to ask as I have always held the firm belief that there are no stupid questions, only stupid answers. I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the week!

Hi Jamie and all Jamie's fan!
I have been a fan since you were cooking of that flat in London and had your scooter. Followed your move to your first house where the kitchen looked very cottagy. Then you became Jay Kay's neighbour, had that healthy garden patch as compared to your herbs garden by the window in that flat. Followed you in your Italian escapade series then off to the states. Respected you even more in Food Revolution.
I enjoy a bit of cooking and i sometimes do volunteer cooking at my local soup kitchen. I have a habit of fusing food with Malaysian taste, a colourful country where i reside now. I used to live in the UK, had my first job, got married, had my first 3 lovely children before returning home.
I would love to share my passion for cooking and would be very honoured if you guide me. When are you coming to Kuala Lumpur? Really would love to meet you in person after all these years.
Thanks. Happy days!

Hi everybody!
Let me introduce myself......
I live in the Netherlands. I'm a father of 2 lovely kiddo's and happily married! My English is a bit rusty sow forgive me my mistakes please:)
I love cooking and grow my own vegetables. I like to trie new things. Also trie new things growing in the garden.
Normally I use as much as possible the vegetables fresh as they come of the ground. Sow when I start cooking, I first roam in my garden for 15 minutes and end up with a lot af stuff in the kitchen. Then I trie start making something edible of it:)
But in winter wee need to eat as well sow we have 2 big freezers, and we pickle and preserve a lot as well.
When we have a lot of white cabbages, savoy or so, I make my own sauerkraut. When you make it in the summer you can eat it the whole winter!!
I like the way Jamie cooks! Its simple, rustic and good! Go on Jamie!!

The Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Honorable Ahmed Adheeb Abdul Ghafoor has returned from a successful marketing tour in China. This tour was organized by Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation in association with the Mega Maldives Airlines from 16th to 22nd April 2012. Five major cities were covered during this trip, which included Beijing, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Shenzhen and Shanghai. The Maldives delegation, headed by the Minister, consisted of Deputy Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture Mr. Mohamed Maleeh Jamal and officials from Ministry Tourism, Arts and Culture along with Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation and tourism industry representatives.
A tour operator event was carried out in each city, which was attended by major Chinese operators and the media. The Minister welcomed participants of the event in each city and addressed the gatherings. In his speeches he highlighted the importance of Chinese market to the Maldives and assured the tour operators that Maldives is and always will remain a safe destination for the visitors. Minister also met with some of the major Chinese tour operators individually and briefed them about the Maldives and investment opportunities in the tourism sector. He also gave interviews to some TV channels, newspapers and magazines.
A presentation on Maldives as a destination was given by Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation. Apart from this, presentations were also given by Mega Maldives Airlines, Live-aboard Association of Maldives and GMR.
China has been one of the fastest growing markets to the Maldives. In 2009 China was ranked the 4th largest market to the Maldives with a total of 60,666 tourists capturing 9.2% market shares. By the end of 2010, China became the number one market by overtaking well established traditional markets to the Maldives from Europe such as United Kingdom, Italy and Germany. China is recorded as the first non-European market to be the market leader, since tourism began in the Maldives. At the end of 2011 China remained at the top rank with over 21% shares and total arrivals of 198,655. In January 2012, tourist arrivals from China recorded a heavy growth of 127%. However, due to the recent incidents in the Maldives, Chinese market registered negative growths during the months of February and March. Nonetheless Chinese market remains as the number one market at the end of March 2012 with 18% market shares and over 46,000 tourists during the period.
With the success of this marketing tour, it is expected that the Chinese arrivals will increase from May 2012 onwards.

LONG BEACH, Calif. – The Miami University women's basketball team dropped a tough 76-61 decision to Long Beach State Tuesday night to begin its California road trip. The RedHawks fall to 3-6 on the season, while the 49ers improve to 6-4.
It was a tough shooting night for Miami as it finished the game 23-for-65 (35.4 percent). The RedHawks also had 25 turnovers, which led to 28 LBSU points. Senior guard Hannah Robertson led MU with 12 points.
The pace was fast from the start. After the 49ers hit an opening three-pointer, Hannah Robertson answered with a trey of her own. A layup from freshman forward Nicole Anderson gave Miami an early 5-3 advantage. Long Beach State followed with a 14-4 run to take control of the contest at 17-9 with 11:35 remaining in the half.
A three-pointer from junior guard Kindsay Brandt ended the 49er run and cut the deficit to five, but LBSU eventually pushed the lead to 10 at 24-14 with 7:17 to go. Three-pointers from junior guard Courtney Larson and senior guard Haley Robertson started a 9-0 Miami run that pulled the 'Hawks to within one at 24-23. Despite layups from sophomore forward Jessica Rupright and senior forward Erica Almady, Long Beach State was able to hit a pair of three-pointers to close the half on a 10-4 run and take a 34-27 lead into the break.
The RedHawks shot 10-for-30 (33.0 percent) for the half, while holding LBSU to 13-for-40 (32.5 percent) shooting. Miami got contributions from nearly everyone on the roster as 10 different players scored during the period. Anderson and Almady led the 'Hawks with four points apiece.
After the 49ers opened the second half with a layup, back-to-back three-pointers from Anderson and Haley Robertson made it a three-point game at 36-33. The RedHawks' shot went cold from there and Long Beach State took advantage with a 16-6 run over the next eight minutes to take a 53-39 lead with 10:29 to go in the game.
Rupright and Brandt each hit shots, but LBSU was still in front, 63-49 with 4:43 to go. Hannah Robertson drained a three-pointer, but the 49ers responded with a jumper. A three-pointer by Haley Robertson, followed by a layup from Brandt made it a single-digit deficit at 65-57 at the 3:05 mark. Long Beach State answered with five straight points on a layup and a three-pointer, and then hit its free throws down the stretch to finish off a 76-61 victory.
In addition to Hannah Robertson's 12 points, Brandt scored 11. Haley Robertson contributed nine points to go with a team-high six assists and two blocks. Anderson had a monster game on the boards, finishing with a team-high 15, including seven offensive. She also had seven points, an assist, a steal and a block in 26 minutes. As a team, Miami outrebounded LBSU, 50-38, and brought in 23 offensive rebounds.
The RedHawks complete their California road trip when they take on San Diego State on Thursday at 9 p.m. (EST). Tim Bray has the call and the game can be heard live on WMOH, as well as Miami All-Access for those who have a subscription.
