Lyon's Six RBI Leads Baseball to DH Sweep at Belmont Abbey with 9-3 and 8-4 Wins
February 20, 2010
BELMONT, N.C. - The Belmont Abbey baseball team dropped both games of its doubleheader with the visiting Pfeiffer Falcons, losing the opener 9-3 and falling 8-4 in the nightcap. Pfeiffer improves to 5-7 overall and 3-2 in Conference Carolinas, while the Abbey falls to 4-7 overall and 2-2 in Conference Carolinas.
In game one Pfeiffer scored the first three runs of the game, plating one in the first and two more in the second before the Crusaders closed the lead to 3-1 with a run in the fifth, as Tim Dye singled home Justin Baxley.
The Falcons stretched their lead to 4-1 with a run in the sixth on a solo homer by Preston Lyon, but the Abbey inched back to within one in the bottom of the inning as Danny Brion split the gap in left center to score Baxley and Spencer Sobol.
Pfeiffer responded by scoring the final five runs of the game to pull away, getting one in the seventh and four more in the eighth.
Nick Fogleman earned the win, as he allowed three runs on eight hits in six innings, striking out six and walking one. He opened the game by retiring the first ten batters he faced. Jordan Cudney took the loss. He gave up four runs on six hits in six innings, fanning seven and walking one.
Pfeiffer finished with 13 hits as Lyon finished four for five with four RBI and a run scored. Josh Strickland went two for three. The Abbey rapped out ten hits as Brion, Baxley and Caleb Shore all collected two hits.
In game two, the Abbey drew first blood as Josh Frazier singled home Baxley in the bottom of the second for the game's first run. The advantage moved to 2-0 in the fourth as Baxley drilled a solo shot to right center. Pfeiffer took its first lead one inning later by scoring three runs, getting a two-run homer by catcher Jesse Dunn and an RBI double by Myles Pearl.
One inning later, the Abbey moved ahead again with two runs, coming a pinch hit double to left by Ryan Ronda that scored Dye and Ruben Cabrera. But the Falcons moved ahead for good in the top of the sixth as they scored five runs on five hits, getting two on a single by Lyon.
John McDaniel earned the win in a complete game effort, allowing four runs on seven hits while striking out eight. Tyler Powell took the loss. He yielded four runs, three earned, on eight hits in five and one-third. He fanned eight.
Baxley had two of the Abbey's seven hits, coming in two at bats, and scored two runs. Lyon, Strickland and Zach Pou each had two hits for the Falcons, which finished with 12.
Game three of the series gets underway on Sunday at 1:00 p.m.

No one from the SARU executive attended the Kings Super Rugby debut. There was nothing official by way of congratulations. But the custodian of the game was quick to speak out when the Kings fielded three instead of two foreigners in the match 22 against the Chiefs.
The absolute desire to see the Kings fail from within the national executive is disgusting.
The haters of the Kings have a right of choice, opinion and expression of speech, however limited and demeaning it may be in articulation and expression, but the national governing body could surely show a bit more class instead of the obvious crassness we've seen since they were forced to include the Kings in Super Rugby when they cocked up a promise to the Lions that the Kings would be there because of a tournament expansion.
This franchise is the good news story in a unified South African rugby. It is the rainbow story, by choice and not construction. More than 100 000 of all cultures have attended the Kings three home games. Australians and New Zealanders can't stop talking about the romance of the Kings' debut month.
Every South African rugby writer who has made the trip to Port Elizabeth has written of the energy of the crowd, of the diverse cultural representation of the crowd, of the atmosphere at the ground and of the incredible spirit of those who play in the Kings' jersey.
SARU's national executive failed to see the significance of the Kings debut. All they see is the irritation of it. Typical of cowards there has been nothing but silence as the Kings have won the hearts of so many through the courage of their performance.
SARU hasn't thanked them for adding a dimension to the game in South Africa but those who double as the custodians have demanded a report as to why the Kings fielded three foreigners in their match 22 against the Chiefs, when the SARU regulation limits all South African franchises to just two players.
The Kings, in their debut match, started with 15 South Africans and injury to captain Darron Nell in the warm-up of the Chiefs match forced a last minute call-up to a third foreigner.
SARU wants a report about it and were very quick to make public that they wanted this report.
They weren't as quick to wish the Kings well prior to their first game and they weren't rushing to congratulate the Kings on becoming the first tournament newcomer to ever win on debut.
The Kings represent the future of the game in this country. SARU is the relic that represents everything despicable about the past.

OXFORD, Ohio--Miami's women's swimming and diving team wins their sixth straight meet with a 177-119 win over Cincinnati at the Nixon Aquatic Center.
The RedHawks saw ten of their swimmers and divers take first-place finishes. Senior Nikki Craft and freshman Stephanie LeMire won two individual events each, while senior Cynthia Donovan won the 50 freestyle (23.64) and contributed to a win in the 200 freestyle relay with junior Annie Marquiss and sophomores Natalie Rohr and Sara Krueger.
"It was good to get back into it," said Coach Mark Davis, "I was really happy with the meet, especially coming off our training trip… we got out and did a great job."
Highlighting the night were LeMire's two wins in the 100 breaststroke (1:04.54) and the 200 breaststroke (2:20.04) and Craft's two wins in the one-meter dive (307.95 points) and the three-meter dive (322.28 points).
Other individual first-place finishes were turned in by sophomore Katie Blodgett in the 200 butterfly (2:07.31), junior Stephanie Pearce in the 1000 freestyle (10:16.35), sophomore Betsey Zilch in the 100 butterfly (57.90) and freshman Brittany Dudzinski, who got her first college win in the 100 backstroke with a time of 57.79.
Krueger and Marquiss were particularly busy on the night, with Krueger placing second in the 200 freestyle (1:54.08), third in the 50 freestyle (24.19) and third in the 100 freestyle (52.73), in addition to her contributions to the 200 freestyle relay. Marquiss took two second-place finishes. One in the 50 freestyle (24.09) and and another in the 100 freestyle (52.60). She also swam with Dudzinski, sophomore Emma Szczupakiewicz and senior Nicole Wagner on the 200 medley relay team that placed second.
Wagner also took second place finishes in the 100 breaststroke (1:06.11) and the 200 breaststroke (2:23.69).
"Some of the things we've been working on are really coming together," said Davis, "We're not there yet… we still have some things to work on."
"Somebody just steps up… it makes it a lot of fun."
The RedHawks will next compete when they travel to Evansville, Ind. to take on the Purple Aces on Saturday, Jan. 18.

Over the next 12 months there will be significant construction work at Gatwick Airport Station whilst a new platform (7) is built to enable platforms 5 and 6 to become dedicated for Gatwick Express services.
This will require platform 6 to be closed from Monday 11 February until Saturday 27 April whilst the work takes place. As a consequence, it will be necessary to cancel the 05:15 London Victoria to Gatwick service Mondays to Fridays during this time.
It will also be necessary to close platform 5 overnight Mondays to Thursdays between 21:30 – 05:30 from Monday 18 February to Friday 15 March and from Tuesday 2 April to Friday 19 April.
During this time the following Gatwick Express services will be cancelled Monday to Thursdays 21:15, 21:45, 22:15 and 22:45 London Victoria to Gatwick and 22:05, 22:35, 23:05 and 23:35 Gatwick to London Victoria. However, there are alternative train services which passengers can use. Details can be found on the document below:
Gatwick Airport Station - changes to service provision
All other train services calling at Gatwick Airport will run as advertised.
Posters are displayed on platforms to inform passengers of the need to check train times with National Rail Enquiries as there will also be some weekend changes as the work progresses.

Raiders? Bunch of rapers and pillagers with two cutlasses. Great notion there. The Heat? They set their damn balls on fire? How can they possibly play like that? Very unsafe. And the Celtics? The dude is smoking. What kinda message is that for the children?
Won't somebody please think of the children!
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
There is nothing wrong with the name Celtics or Heat. There is nothing scriptural that gives a negative connotation about either of those names either. Raiders is not a good name but I'll leave that up to the left coast liberals to brand themselves as such. You cannot misconstrue voodoo; it's sorcery plain and clear. There are good names out there. Angels, Pelicans, Krewe just to name a few that put the city in a positive light. If it was up to me it would be KREWE.

I think we should contemplate the notion that just because an old book says something is wrong doesn't mean it necessarily is. I like to think of myself as a moral person, but Voodoo doesn't raise my ire. It's just a name. It's not a philosophy, or mindset, that the entire franchise would take on. No one is going to put gris gris all over the arena.
It's just. A. Name.
if it was just a name, then by all means call it something like Hornets. bears.
We've got over 2000 posts on the subject, its more than a name.
Reminds me of when someone asked Liverpool's Bill Shankley if soccer was a matter of life and death. He replied "I don't like your attitude son. Its much more than that!"
As for voodoo, I'm not keen on the name. Never have been, never will be. So many other names speak New Orleans much more than voodoo.
Hi JNR,
Thank for your respectfully disagreeing versus having a rude response like others. I'm going to give you the same respect
IMO, Voodoo is too polarizing. Not everyone embraces that name. You're smart enough to realize that marketing is going to be a huge factor in the re-brand. Evangelicals are going to be a major part of this re-brand and many of us will not purchase Voodoo merchandise and embrace that name. Mr. Benson understands the difference between some small market football team and the NBA. The marketing for the football team is small potatoes. The marketing for the basketball team is huge that extends well beyond New Orleans and many people on the northshore, Mississippi and other places are not going to buy into the voodoo concept. For example, how well would the rebrand go if the Hornets were rebrand as the New Orleans Muslims? While voodoo wouldn't be as unpopular as Muslims, it still has a negative connotation that would turn some people off. Having a name as polarizing as voodoo simply means less money for the franchise. It's all about the $$ and Mr. Benson or any bright businessman knows this and isn't going to lose part of his fanbase because of some name that ties itself to witchcraft, sorcery, skulls and bones.
1) The reason people are responding to the majority of your posts disrespectfully is clear. You're beating a dead horse. Every time someone posts in this thread mentioning VooDoo you post again stating you're impossibly rigid viewpoint and ignoring all others. It's growing old.
2) You say the name is too polarizing and compare it to a hypothetical "New Orleans Muslims". The point I assume you're trying to make being that a team whose name has a religious connotation is too particular for nationwide (and global) marketing. But, have you noticed what the football team is already called? The Saints. I wonder if all New Orleans's Muslims hate the team become it's name is quasi-christian.
New Orleans: Food, Mardi Gras, Jazz, the river, even voodoo. These are all things synonymous. Along with the murder rate.
Not all are in and of themselves positive, but they're inseparable from the city. OBVIOUSLY you don't name your team something like the Murderers. That's silly. And I'm sure you'll be quick to latch onto that notion in talking down voodoo.
You mention the market beyond New Orleans. How in the world could you possibly know no one would buy into the voodoo concept? Where's your evidence besides the likelihood that you'd really like them not to cuz it helps your position?
I can't imagine a Biloxi fan going "Wanna go to the Voodoo game?" "No, they promote witchcraft, let's go see the Rebels game instead."
You think no one outside of New Jersey is down with the Devils? There's not even room for misconstruing that even if you know about the Native American Jersey devil folklore.
Ahd you keep bringing up witchcraft. But let me bring our attention to the elephant in the room.
Oh. Look at that. Looks like not one but TWO other bright businessmen shot ambiguity in the back of the head and gave their names unbelievably direct ties to witchcraft and sorcery.
But they don't have dead things in there so I guess they get a pass, huh?
"Ventas servitas," I cried.
I really hope it is Voodoo... not because it's my favorite but just to tick that zealot off.
"Hornets means nothing." - Tom Benson
^lol, people with strong beliefs may be like what? But they wouldn't completely not like the team nor attend games because of names.
2013-1014 is the season the Pelicans fanbase grows!!!!
You know that the Hornets did not move to OKC, right. Evangelicals will not be a major part of this re-brand. New Orleans is a Catholic heavy city and as long as beers are being sold through the 3rd quarter-they will be just fine.
On another note, I just want to point out to you that I am a Muslim and I have legit intel that Mr.Benson has actually converted to Islam (Hah-just snuck another one by you just like we did with Barack Hussein Obama). While New Orleans Muslims would be a great name, we like our plans for world domination and submission to be a little more stealth.
As-Salāmu Alaykum,

Sharia law will be implemented as both our offense and Defense.

Sustainable flooring should start under your floorboards. There are plenty of green underlay options. Be sure to consider toxicity, recycled content, and insulation when choosing what to place under the floors.
First, don't try to reduce your use of "stuff" by skipping the underlay. Your frugality might be counterproductive if the floor requires quicker replacement. The underlay can keep moisture and mold off the floors. Bamboo, cork, laminates, or other floating floors may also develop cracks and gaps and wear down faster without a soft cushion. Finally, underlay can block noise and make flooring more flexible, so it is easier on the knees.

After a video of a Brooklyn man brutally kicking a cat was posted to Facebook last week, animal advocates alerted authorities, leading to the arrest of the man in the video footage by the New York City Police Department (NYPD).
Representatives of various animal welfare organizations, the Mayor's Alliance and the NYPD worked together to locate the injured cat, named King, seen in the video. The NYPD transported King to the ASPCA Animal Hospital (AAH) to undergo emergency veterinary care.
King is currently recovering at the ASPCA Animal Hospital and will continue to receive treatment and close monitoring as he heals. It is still too soon to discuss a timeline for King's adoptability.
This case reinforces the importance of reporting animal cruelty in a timely manner. To report animal cruelty in New York City, please dial 311 or call 911 to report crimes in progress. Please visit our Report Animal Cruelty page to learn how to report cruelty in other areas.
Animal cruelty is a crime in every state—if you see something, call 911. Please join our battle against animal cruelty today!
It's such a relief to see King in good hands and recovering. He's such a handsome cat!
Having cats all my life, they really are pretty damn awesome animals. I wonder if the punk who did this to King would appreciate someone kicking the hell out of him? I personally would like to take a bat to his knees. Now, I am not a violent person - it sounds like it - but I'm not. It just seems only fair. You know, the "eye for an eye" thing . . .
I would volunteer to be the one to do the kicking. No one should get away with treating animals badly!
Would love to join you. I have a good idea where to kick this SOB!!
Oh count on me! I have a 19yr old cat and I would break someone in two if they hurt her
I agree with all of you animal lovers! That CREEP should get the living s@#%! kicked out of him!!!!!! He will get his, what goes around comes around!!!
Me too! This guy deserves getting the crap kicked out of him! And what about his pal, the one that filmed this disgusting pig kicking poor King after he made believe he wanted to pet him??? Why isn't Mr. Giggles (he laughed through the entire video!!) under arrest too??? I hope King gets a wonderful home, off the streets, inside a nice place with a GREAT pet parent who love him and provide a window to look out for him!

The JRuby community is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 1.1 RC 1
Homepage: http://www.jruby.org/
Download: http://dist.codehaus.org/jruby/
JRuby 1.1RC1 is the first release candidate of JRuby 1.1. JRuby 1.1
represents a concerted focus on speed and refinement. Ruby code can
completely compile in an Ahead Of Time (AOT) or Just In Time (JIT) mode;
yielding a faster Ruby! It also uses less memory than our previous releases.
We need people to download JRuby 1.1RC1 and give us feedback. Test your
applications and help us make JRuby 1.1 a great release.
- 143 issues resolved since JRuby 1.1b1
- Landing of Java port of Oniguruma (Joni)
- Most Posix methods supported (e.g. stat, kill, getuid)
- Latest Rubygems 1.0.1, RSpec 1.1.1, and Rake 0.8.1 gems
- Updated standard library to be Ruby 1.8.6 compatible
A huge round of thanks goes to Marcin Mielzynski for porting Oniguruma.
Porting Oniguruma to Java (resulting in a sub-project called Joni) was a
tremendous amount of work and it turned out great. We also want to
acknowledge Vladimir Sizikov for the large number of Rubyspecs failure fixes
during this development cycle. He has been tenacious in getting patches to

Yes all that stuff very funny until I realise that some people actually take it seriously. I'm also deadly serious about posting this- pentecostal or charasmatic movements are becoming more like pagan/ bible based cults (in my opinion) yet they call themselves "christian's". I'm not sure if this is the right portion of the forum to post this but I feel it's relevant to the basic issue of Christianity.
That Christianity is fluid and open to varieties of 'other' theories and perhaps encourages 'superstition'. Its not just about faith but alliance to race. Pardon me but I'm shocked and pissed off that small suburban churches could be worse than the white supremistists groups lead by David whathisface.
The http://www.serpentseed.com/ and BI http://www.preteristarchive.com/ChurchHistory/greer-nick_mi_01.html apparently are somewhat connected http://www.british-israel.ca/Seed.htm but I didn't know anything about the fairies and celtic myth.
Here's a quote from another forum which I'm curious about (Brett is a pastor and this was written by his wife) :-
"In Dec1999 Brett was getting ready to do a series of BI talks. He was preparing a talk when he decided to look up a reference "Today, Tomorrow and the Great Beyond" (TTatGB) made to Josephus. Josephus said the 10 tribes were beyond Euphrates. It hit Brett very hard. Josepus KNEW where they were. They weren't lost at all. They were east of Palestine, beyond Euphrates. At that time the Anglo-Saxons were in NW Europe.
Then he saw James 1:1 To the 12 tribes. James knew where they were. Matthew 10:6 Jesus sent the 12 to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Brett showed me what he'd found. I honestly didn't know what he was talking about. He made a comment about Josephus saying Magog was the Scythians. That's when the penny dropped for me. John Fox said the Scythians were the ancestors of the Anglo-Saxons. We downloaded Herodotus and compared it to the quotes in TTatGB. It was an outright twist. TTatGB gives the impression that the Scythians had existed as a nation for 1000 years (like Israel) and because they didn't breed pigs they kept the food laws. Both these quotes exist in Herodotus. BUT Herodotus spoke of their first king Tagitaus and their history - which is TOTALLY unrelated to Israel in the same paragraph. And the next sentence after Herodotus said they didn't breed pigs he said they drank human blood, used skulls for drinking cups…
Basically we saw that "Today, Tomorrow and the Great Beyond" was completely unreliable and twisted and distorted history. Brett spoke to some brothers here. One didn't believe Brett and decided to do some research on his own. He looked up Tuatha de Danaan (the so-called tribe of Dan) in Encarta. In Celtic myth Tuatha de Danaan were the faeries who first inhabited Ireland. Then went underground. It got worse and worse. I looked up some of the names on the geaneological chart supposedly tracing Queen Elizabeth to David and discovered Aeneas and Anchises. What the chart failed to mention was Anchises was married to Venus, goddess of love. I cried when I read that."
Does anyone know anything about any of it. Personally I don't see how taking into account Celtic myth is of any comfort to finding out or unopening the belief in the British Isreal theory which is one of the basic tennets of the group I'm concerned with. Realising it's connected to Edom doctrine would have been enough for me but I get the impression member's don't question it?
Does it make any sense to anyone?
Also I'd like to know whether anyone is aware of this kind of trash being taught by christian churches?

I used to have a color laser (bought for my wedding so we could do our own invitations). It was a really nice printer, did PostScript and we had a ghetto sharing arrangement with my computer plugged into the parallel port & hers to USB. However, it (a Laserjet 2550) was loud and expensive to keep fed - a full load of toner plus a drum was nearly as much as the printer cost originally, and my wife has to print a lot because of her job (she's a teacher), so four toners would have to be replaced roughly every 18 months, and the drum every three years.
So, since SWMBO wanted a scanner, I switched us to a Brother b&w multifunction. It was cheap (snagged for about $160), but had its own duplexer & Ethernet, and the black toner cost about 1/2 to 2/3 as much as the HP stuff. Thing's been trouble-free aside from the duplexer not liking paper pre-punched for a 3-ring binder, and did I mention it's a fuckton cheaper to operate? I could wish for PostScript so I could print from Linux without jumping through hoops, but honestly I rarely print so it doesn't matter.

No matter what the occasion is, hiring the limo adds the luxurious and elegant touch to your special event. Celebrating a special event like a wedding or birthday is a unique moment which you want to share with your family and friends. Today life moves at a fast pace, and special moments are made extra precious when you share them with your loved ones in pre arranged event that you have spent time and energy organising carefully.

Good chance to watch two 7 footers projected to go pretty high in the draft this year: Nerlens Noel and Isaiah Austin. Also get the chance to watch Alex Poythress. Its on CBS right now.

Kind of hard to compare this team vs last year's team. While this team is very talented, they're also very young and inexperienced. Last year's team had the luxury of having experienced guys like Lamb, Miller, and Jones who all played heavy roles in their success.
Nerlens Noel should seriously consider playing more than 1 year in college. He's not NBA-ready right now.

I agree. The Anthony Davis comparisons are completely unwarranted. This kid is extremely raw and less capable on both ends of the court than AD was last year. Like Coach Cal put it, Davis is a once every ten years type of talent. Physical freaks, with minimally developed games, like Noel pop up every year in the draft (ex. Drummond).

"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
He probably should, but ultimately won't. I mean he could, but he smells going first and when you've got that chance you take it.
Staying can help or hurt you as Cody Zeller stayed and he will probably rise in the draft from around 7th to 3rd. But it can hurt too, see Sullinger's injury concerns. So when you've got first already in sight and no injury concerns staying can only hurt.

And staying in college an extra year doesn't help you that much (other than draft position). Being drafted and playing in the D-League puts you against better competition.
D-League teams have big men coaches. You get more 1on1 time with people that know your position and more practice time. You will improve more and faster in the pros than in college.

My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
And top 3 picks will never be hurting for instructional time or playing time. And teams drafting in the top 3 are often very patient because, well, they were bad enough to get top 3. Davis and MKG are both projects. They had a few skills which were NBA ready (or at least close enough) but had tons of holes in their game.
If you draft someone for "potential" you are getting a project. Lottery picks are often projects. It is later in the first round where you find guys who don't have much potential but can help a team right away as a rotational player.

The old saying "You don't marry a wife, you marry her whole family" was conceived by someone with a very observant mind. It's true: Parents, as well as your whole line of Ancestors, affect how you relate to each other in a marriage, how you react to problems, and how you resolve them.
Take any problem – diet, career, the number of kids you want, exercise, sleep or lovemaking schedule . . . anything you used to do alone now has an added factor – a spouse. Add other elements to this equation – like kids or elderly parents living with you – then the problems become exponentially more complex!
But lets assume for the moment that there is just the two of you. You still have the whole parent-ancestor influence surrounding you and probably don't even know it. I didn't either until I became aware of it recently.
I was very mean to my husband a few days ago. I accused him of laziness, rudeness, not wanting to help around the house, and not willing to take our son to a play date. The fact that he has a full-time job and often works late is besides the point!
It was soon thereafter, when I was able to get a break and settle down, that my husband actually said something about it. Arnold pointed out – calmly and lovingly I might add, that while he loves me, he was feeling overwhelmed himself, and didn't know how to respond to me in a way that I perceived as supporting. He then actually apologized for being insensitive at that time!
Wow. What a husband!
Because he was able to do this, however, I was suddenly able to see MY role in this whole fiasco . . . namely that I often blame him for things I'm feeling, rather than for actually things he fails to do. Although I don't consider myself stupid, this was actually a breakthrough for me. I was also able to remember that I acted the same way that my mother reacted to my father . . . and the same way my mother told me her mother reacted!!
After a bit of research I found out there is actually a science called epigenetics that explains this whole thing. Apparently, some or all behaviors can be inherited, and that I was living out some unresolved anger or frustration felt by my mother, grandmother, and who knows who else up the ladder!
Needless to say, I've been paying closer attention to my son's inherited behavior since this incident. Obviously he got the temper tantrums from his dad and his amazing ability to keep his room neat from me. But hey, it's only science, right?

Midwest Living Review
Mark Twain immortalized the maze of underground passages where he played as a boy when he wrote the episode in Tom Sawyer where Tom and Becky get lost in McDougal's Cave. Guided tours last about an hour and start with a short video explaining the geology (the cave is 100 million years old and has 6.5 miles of passages formed by dripping water) and history (it was discovered by hunters in 1819, Jesse James use it for a hideout, and guided tours started in 1886). Guides are good about pointing out the "treasure room" where Tom and Huck found a box of gold and the corner of the cave where Injun Joe died. The Mark Twain Cave Tour is over level ground, with no stairs. On Saturdays, young folks portraying Tom and Becky join your tour. The cave complex also includes a campground, a shop where kids can pan for minerals and gemstones, gift and candle shops, and Cave Hollow Center, a meeting and event site. Admission charged.

A Simple Glance Into Nursing Home Jobs
At some point, it will happen to all of us. We will grow old and rely on the kindness of family and, in some cases, strangers to help us get by in our daily activities or to cheer us up or keep us company. Some people will spend their final years in the comfort of their own home or living with family, but a great deal of us will live out our golden years in a nursing home. Crucial to the happiness of the elderly and to maintaining a healthy community, those who hold nursing home jobs are often the unsung heroes of our society. It takes strong character and sensitivity to the conditions of the elderly to be successful in nursing home jobs, and it also requires more energy and skills than most people realize.
The Skills Behind Nursing Home Jobs
There are a few essential ingredients that go into making someone a perfect candidate for nursing home jobs and providing care for the elderly. First, one must have a great deal of patience as the elderly do not move as quickly as others and can sometimes suffer from slower cognition skills. Someone truly skilled in this type of patience will have the ability to understand the nature of the elderly and will be a compassionate person to them.
Nursing home jobs also require an individual be caring and sympathetic. Imagine you were elderly and trying to convey your pain or discomfort to someone charged with caring for you and you felt they didn't care for you or your concerns. This would be hurtful and damaging. Therefore, it is necessary to enter into this job with strength of character and the ability to show real compassion to these individuals.
Finally, working in any of the various nursing home jobs available requires that job holders have a high degree of professionalism. It is often that you may be expected to assist someone in taking their medication or making sure a resident adheres to certain food restrictions. These tasks may seem small but they carry a great deal of importance and responsibility.
What Kind of Jobs Are Available?
If you think you have what it takes to fill any of the nursing home jobs listed below, and you are prepared for a challenging and rewarding career, then you will be a successful candidate for a nursing home job. There are many different types of careers, and each career can cater to certain characteristics that you may already have and would enjoy using in your daily tasks. Here are a few:
- Activities Director: The Activities Director is responsible for ensuring that the nursing home is providing activities and programs that will keep the residents happy, engaged, and socialized. Since studies show that depression is common in the elderly, it is incredibly important to keep their spirits up by using your own natural creativity to implement games, arrange guest speakers, and provide for other programs that will interest the residents. This job would be a perfect fit for someone who excels at organization and creativity.
- Administration: Handling paperwork for the residents and overseeing the overall efficiency of a nursing home is one of the most important nursing home jobs. Responsibilities can vary, but may include arranging for new tenants, keeping track of resident medical records, and maintaining the overall structure of employees and their jobs within the nursing home.
- Certified Nursing Assistant: This job requires more certification and knowledge about the particular responsibilities associated with the position, but can be one of the more rewarding positions. A nursing assistant working in a nursing home is often the go-to person in situations where residents need medical assistance or have questions regarding their health or medications. This can be a very rewarding job as you build close relationships with the residents and are the person they tend to rely on most.
Degrees and Certification Requirements
The biggest concern one might have with pursing nursing home jobs is whether it will require additional schooling. Depending on the sort of work you hope to do in the nursing home will dictate the answer to that question. If you are going to try to be a nursing assistant or work in a health care capacity to the elderly residents, you will likely need to adhere to state and federal certification requirements. There are different types of health care positions, so the one you choose will have its own certification and regulations that will apply.
Other jobs, such as Activities Director or working as a nursing home receptionist, do not require a degree in order to apply for an entry level position. However, like most jobs, having some educational background in this field of work will prove to be advantageous. Nursing home jobs do require some expertise from time to time when dealing with health care issues, so a background in health care can go a long way in securing a job.
Employers also prefer to find applicants who can bring some experience to the table. One of the best ways to get experience is through an internship, if you are in college, or through volunteer work. If you are already in a full time job but would like to switch careers, then consider volunteering at a nursing home on the weekends. This will give you the opportunity, as will an internship, to get to know the staff and to learn the different jobs. This connection will be a great building block for future employment.

Wow guys this is fantastic sponsorship.
I applaud all the sponsors.
Wow guys this is fantastic sponsorship.
I applaud all the sponsors.
As of the moment we have 8 holes left to be sponsored and 5 uncollected Sponsors and 2 Collected but not to me yet so there are not in red to say they are paid. Keep up the excellent work.
Down to 5 holes lets keep working on these you guys are doing great!!!!
Ok with only 3 Hole sponsors left to fill this tourney, here is what I think we need to offer other sponsors. For $100 they get 2.5in x 5in (1/3 page) ad space on a page for $150 they get 4in x 5in (1/2 a page) or the full page for $250. This way we still have some options for people who only want to give a $100 and it is not too complicated for us to produce. I commend all of you on the effort so far but we are not done we have time and resources we have not yet used. I know Steve Simpson mentioned a few places that sponsored last year he said we could get. Again excellent job so far keep up the good work.
Team Honey Badger would like to sponsor hole 24. Judge, tell me where to send the paypal.
List Updated 1 Hole left. but do not for get the offer i made to tell sponsors about earlier
Team honey badger will kill team nasty!
We don't suck! I know that...lol!
I would not be opposed to giving up our 2 holes, and taking that $200 plus the $50 for getting 3 hole sponsors and giving Team NastyPants a page sponsor.
I personally would not be opposed to placing a small side wager, team vs. team.
Love the NastyPants, you will!

Customer Raves & Reviews
So fun and cute, so easy to customize, great font options, great colors. So nice to be able to get samples for FREE to make sure we liked the colors and fonts before purchasing
Absolutely worth it!!!
My wedding is December 6th and I am having a winter wonderland themed wedding. The colors are silver and white with a touch of sky blue. These went great with my theme! I was a bit worried about the quality because I didn't want the invitations to look cheap but I chose the PEARL texture and I love it! I am so happy! I spent $700 on 150 invites, seals, address labels, RSVP cards, and vellum bands. Such a deal!!! Highly recommend it! I also placed a black and white photo of my fiancée and I. The color photo did not look good. I recommend these!!!!
Perfect Wedding Invites
I know weddings are can be expensive and finding the perfect items to fit every budget needs is important. When it came to invites all I could think was I want to buy the perfect ones without spending an arm and leg. Magnet Street has gone above and beyond my needs and I am impressed with their products time after time. They are very loyal to their customers with providing coupons and discount specials year round. My MOH was blown away by the invites we will be sending our guest this year. A close friend of ours spent a couple of thousand dollars on invites and she stated that ours blew theirs out of the water and we spent less than 500. The difference was her invites were so thick and had tons of calligraphy, but it didn't have a picture on it or open up so beautifully it was just sheets of thick paper that had two stamps because it was so wide and heavy. Our invites require one stamp have a picture in front and once opened up it has pockets with all the information cards. With saving money we are able to put a second stamp on the rsvp cards for all our guest. Invites are a sneak peak to our guest of our wedding and a pricey memory for you to have as a keepsake. Having calligraphy is not a memory but your picture on the front of invite at the actual venue over looking their grand lawn is a memory and excitement to all. When you shop around like I did you will see that magnet street's products is fantastic. I am so impressed with the quality, look, availability of making each invite fit your custom needs and the straight forwardness of product arrival to home. One of the many things that impresses me is the sample packages that magnet street sends out, I have researched many who charge or simply do not send samples. After you decide to create your wedding sample magnet street will send you a sample of your completed wedding sample you create and subtract it from your total purchase at the end and give you a discount with your purchase is fabulous. I have gotten our magnet save the dates and invites so far. If I decide to go with other products magnet street is the place.
Proof Mishap
Only complaint on this product is that the proof for the back of the invitation was cleaner and more eligible than what the invitiation ended up looking like on the back.
Looks great!
This invite worked well for our vintage themed wedding. We were able to change the colors to match our wedding and even emailed the customer service team about changing some of the word spacing- they were great to work with! Our picture came out perfect and overall, it was a good deal for what we wanted. The pocket folds are a little thin from what I expected but I didn't order any samples first so that's my fault. Once I got used to the material I really liked them. Great printing and ink quality. Make sure you wait for a coupon and you will get a great deal!

What do the numbers 24, 72 and 96 have in common? Those are the totals, IN HOURS, that our last three 1967 Chevrolet Corvette pro-touring cars sat on our RK Motors Charlotte showroom floor. And for good reason: they're some of the meanest, most exclusive and most enjoyable muscle cars on the planet! This 1967 pro-touring roadster is a top notch, no compromises C2 that will unquestionably draw a crowd wherever it goes. Despite its exceptionally well done modifications, which include a modern 521 horsepower V8, a strip ready driveline and a massaged fiberglass body, none of the pure, basic goodness of its beloved design has been compromised. And best of all, that fresh technology provides an athleticism and performance envelope that will embarrass pretty much anything on the road. If you're one of those enthusiasts who enjoys being at the pinnacle of style, the top of the leader board and the front of the car show, this world class pro-tourer is the car you've been dreaming of!
This slick C2 Sting Ray's body is a never-been-hit '67 and, as you can tell, the very talented craftsmen at Corvette Restorations AZ treated it to a lot of time and some amazing fiberglass work. Even 45 years after it was launched, Larry Shinoda's brilliant design still speaks for itself. And the car's only noteworthy modifications include a couple of bolt-ons that combine both form and function to create a more aggressive front clip, and massaged fenders which perfectly frame its massive wheels and tires. Unlike most concours restored Vettes, this Sting Ray features exceptional fit and finish which, with the car's bright paint, is definitely a design statement. And speaking of bright paint, the car's sinuous form has been bathed in a vivid coat of Enzo Ferrari Yellow urethane that shines just as bright as the day it left the spray booth. It may be true that there's no such thing as a perfect car; but this killer Corvette pro-tourer is about as close as you can get!
The cool thing about a pro-touring Corvette is that you're taking an already aggressive design and adding a ton of race-bred technology which elevates the car's personality and performance to a whole new level. It's kind of like rebuilding the Incredible Hulk with components from the Terminator to create one mean, ass kicking machine; and this '67 Sting Ray definitely looks the part! At the front of the car, a body-width stainless grille sits inside of show worthy stainless trim which is bordered by two chrome trimmed parking lights, a razor blade style chrome bumper and a custom molded chin spoiler. Above that grille a 1967-exclusive stinger hood, which has been detailed with a gloss black stripe and fresh chrome trim, rides in front of like-new glass that is cleared by bright stainless wipers, framed by excellent looking stainless trim and capped by a black Al Knoch top. Below that glass flared front fenders hang correct 1967-exclusive heat extractors in front of pristine bowtie mirrors, correct chrome door handles, satin black rocker trim and custom black side pipes that are complete with stainless heat shields. Behind that glass, a full stainless roll bar is centered between super-wide flared rear fenders and a smooth rear decklid that is complete with both a body-matched fuel filler and a pristine "Corvette Sting Ray" emblem. And at the back of the car, two centered reverse lamps combine with four traditional Corvette tail lights to illuminate a chrome trimmed tag bracket and two more pristine, razor blade style bumpers.
While the exterior of this awesome yellow roadster provides the kind of radical good looks you might find encased in velvet ropes on the show field, it's what lives underneath the car's functional stinger hood that separates the beauty queens from the road warriors. Professionally built by Arizona Speed and Marine in Phoenix, Arizona, this Sting Ray's 6.0 liter LS2 Generation IV V8 utilizes an aluminum block, a Competition camshaft and high performance heads that are equipped with severe duty push rods and titanium retainers to churn out a super car killing 521 horsepower! At the top of that engine, a custom fabricated cowl induction system funnels wind from a reusable filter element to a traditional LS2 high-flow intake manifold via a custom fabricated chrome air tube. Once that air is present and accounted for, a GM electronic fuel injection system jets dino blood through stainless fuel rails to high pressure fuel injectors, and GM factory coils shoot sparks into high performance MSD plug wires. The resultant high compression combustion is cooled by a Be Cool 700 horsepower Super Street aluminum radiator which sends water past two 11 inch puller fans and a polished overflow tank to fresh hoses and a body-matched water pump. And the subsequent spent gases are evacuated through a pair of custom fabricated long tube headers which flow straight into the car's custom fabricated side pipes. In front of the engine a modern serpentine system, which has been fully outfitted with chrome pulleys and chrome brackets, spins both a chrome alternator and polished AC compressor; and behind the engine, a straight, unaltered firewall hangs a factory wiper motor next to a modern brake booster and master cylinder. The hot small block wears body-matched fuel rail covers and a thick coat of body-matched high temp engine paint which looks much better than the black on silver color combo of factory fresh LS2s. And a full array of details such as polished stainless lines, high quality braided hoses, chrome hood hardware and even a chrome oil cap provide a finished appearance that most modern engines simply can't achieve.
Throw this Corvette up on a lift and the first thing you'll notice is four bright yellow brake calipers that squeeze four equally impressive slotted brake rotors. The second thing you'll notice is a bright yellow scatter shield that's bolted to a Tremec TKO600 5-speed manual transmission. Those yellow calipers, which are four piston "Corvette" branded C5 units up front and four piston "Delco Moraine" branded C3 units out back, provide excellent stops and modern car cornering thanks to a heavy duty Hydroboost brake system. And that precise transmission sends all the small block's massive power from carbon fiber clutch packs to a new Fast-Corvette differential that's equipped with pebble crushing 3.70 gears. Of course, those brakes couldn't sufficiently corner without the car's modern power rack and pinion steering and fresh Bilstein shocks. And that rear end couldn't sufficiently hook up without the car's Vette Brakes and Products fiberglass transverse rear leaf spring and suspension kit. The car's satin black floor and frame are virtually spotless; and everything from its fresh stainless steel fuel tank to its monoleaf front suspension is fully finished, superbly restored and displays very little use. And all this top notch Corvette hardware rides on a spectacular set of 18 inch Foose Nitrous Thrust wheels which follow 245/40 front Falken Azenis performance radials with 275/35 rear Falken Azenis performance radials.
Open this Corvette's lightweight fiberglass doors and you'll find an OEM-quality standard vinyl interior which has been tastefully updated with both stylish trim components and modern technology. At the center of the car firm bucket seats, which were completely rebuilt during the recent restoration, ride between a six-point roll bar that's bolted to the car's frame and like-new black carpet that's sandwiched between color-keyed Sting Ray floor mats and Dynamat Dynaliner sound deadening. In front of those seats stylish aircraft-inspired gauges, which now operate electronically, perfectly complement brushed metal panels on both the car's glove box and center console. At the sides of those seats, great looking stainless trimmed door panels hang chrome handles, chrome window cranks, and chrome lock knobs above perfectly placed plastic armrests. And between those seats, a waterfall dash interface begins at a continuous motion clock and cascades through controls for the car's Vintage Air climate system and MP3 compatible Custom Auto Sound head unit to the base of a fully functional chrome shifter and chrome switches for the car's power windows. In front of the driver, a flat bottom, three-spoke steering wheel spins on top of a polished tilt steering column that's complete with a full set of billet stalks. And behind the driver, a fully carpeted storage compartment displays absolutely no wear and tear at all.
Included with the sale of this killer Corvette is a CD full of restoration photos, a stack of build receipts and a stack of component manuals.
No matter how much of a purist you might be, you have to admit this Sting Ray is one seriously cool car! Everything that's great about the car's original design remains intact; and the added technology transforms that design into a one-of-a-kind custom that will never be duplicated! If you're looking for the perfect opportunity to own a car that has it all, your search is over! But remember, the clock is ticking…

"Nailed it again bluevangroup, thanks."Thank you.
l don't think it sucks to live in CA. l was born and raised here and traveled around and always glad to come back to CA. l must say Wyoming was one state l did like but it is so far between anything. Loved the rolling green hills coming down from Canada. Enjoy
My opinion is just as valid as yours
When I read your post on the Volt article, I fell outa my seat. Thanx for a great laugh. You had said, "I thought I heard something about a short????" I don't know if you saw my response, "electrically and, a play on GM stock."
Great post on the Keystone XL today!
Thanks for the comment, That test proved to me that most things we buy have the price set the same way as gas.
thanks for the comment , good buddy
"Then, tax how many miles you have to drive in order to produce the food, deliver the food, harvest the food, etc.???? Worst socialist idea, ever. "
You already pay gas tax by the mile. The more miles you drive, the more gas you buy, the more tax you pay. A mile tax instead of gas tax would make EV owners pay their fair share too.
"For a turbine to generate enough power to be of any use, it needs to be consistently hit with wind at speeds above 5 miles per hour.Not a problem most days here in wonderful , windy Wyoming, one of the largest states for wind farming in the U.S." True! Even here in Florida we generally have enough wind during the day to have them, but not many do. Those with a vision do. Our illustrious former governor Crist said we "don't have" any wind in Florida to make use of it; but some of us know different.

Principal Investigator(s): United States Department of Health and Human Services. National Center for Health Statistics
The National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS) collects medical and demographic information annually from a sample of hospital discharge records. Variables include patients' demographic characteristics (sex, age, race, marital status), dates of admission and discharge, status at discharge, final diagnoses, surgical and nonsurgical procedures, dates of surgeries, and sources of payment. Information on hospital characteristics such as bedsize, ownership, and region of the country is also included. The medical information is coded using the INTERNATIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASES, 9TH REVISION, CLINICAL MODIFICATION (ICD-9-CM).

Scope of Study
Subject Terms: demographic characteristics, health care facilities, hospitalization, hospitals, illness, medical care, medical evaluation, medical procedures, medical records, patients, payment methods, treatment
Geographic Coverage: United States
Time Period:
- 1999
Date of Collection:
- 1999
Universe: Patient discharges from nonfederal short-stay hospitals located in the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Data Types: administrative records data
Data Collection Notes:
(1) Per agreement with NCHS, ICPSR distributes the data file and text of the technical documentation in this collection in their original form as prepared by NCHS. (2) The codebook is provided as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. The PDF file format was developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated and can be accessed using PDF reader software, such as the Adobe Acrobat Reader. Information on how to obtain a copy of the Acrobat Reader is provided on the ICPSR Web site.
Sample: The redesigned (as of 1988) NHDS sample includes with certainty all hospitals with 1,000 or more beds or 40,000 or more discharges annually. The remaining sample of hospitals is based on a stratified three-stage design. The first stage consists of selection of 112 primary sampling units (PSUs) that comprise a probability subsample of PSUs used in the 1985-1994 National Health Interview Surveys. The second stage consists of selection of noncertainty hospitals from the sample PSUs. At the third stage, a sample of discharges was selected by a systematic random sampling technique. For 1999, the sample consisted of 513 hospitals. Of these, 26 were found to be ineligible. Of the 487 eligible hospitals, 458 hospitals responded to the survey.
