Warren, OH (PRWEB) September 28, 2013
Drug Rehab Center Warren is proud to announce a newly designed family counseling and therapy to help patients work on their support systems and create a sense of unity in the journey to sobriety. A solid support system is proven to increase a recovering addict's chances at staying sober after leaving treatment. The supportive and caring staff members at Drug Rehab Center Warren understand that support outside of the center is crucial, so they have designed programs to make patients feel even more understood and reinforced in their sobriety.
Dan G., a certified addiction and recovery specialist at Drug Rehab Center Warren, brings light to the obstacles faced by many addicts who must admit they have problems with substance abuse and seek treatment in order to become sober, saying, "Some addicts try to hide their addictions from their families for fear of disappointing them. They may believe that by openly seeking help, they will be opening themselves up to judgment from those they love the most."
By incorporating family members and close friends into the treatment process, Drug Rehab Center Warren helps recovering addicts feel accepted and supported by the people who matter the most to them. Patients at Drug Rehab Center Warren are also encouraged to reach out to those they may have affected negatively through their substance abuse. "This helps patients to make peace with how they may have acted under the influence of their addictions, and is an important part of the recovery process," explains Dan.
Upon completion of a treatment program, Drug Rehab Center Warren encourages each and every patient to continue to attending support groups and therapy sessions outside of rehab. This will help them stay on the road of recovery, and greatly inc

Bharatiya Janata Party leader Gopinath Munde, whose candidature against Union Agricultural Minister Sharad Pawar in the election for the post of president of Mumbai Cricket Association was rejected on the grounds of invalid residential address, on Wednesday hit back claiming that his opponent also faced the similar disadvantage.
Mr. Munde's candidature was rejected after S.D. Singhvi, one of the voters in this poll had argued that the BJP leader was not the resident of Mumbai. Following the rejection, Mr. Pawar remained as the only candidate in the race for the president's post and was expected to win unopposed.
However on WednesdayMr. Munde presented his case in front of current MCA president Ravi Sawant and sought his intervention.
"Mr. Pawar's permanent address, as per the documents presented in Lok Sabha is in Baramati. There cannot be double standards while scrutinising the applications of two candidates. His [Pawar's] candidature should also be rejected as he is not the resident of Mumbai," said Mr. Munde's lawyer Nitin Pradhan.
He said that the questions that were raised against the BJP leader were never raised against Mr. Pawar. Mr. Pradhan clarified that all the documents submitted by the BJP leader had Mumbai's address on it.
The Munde camp has also cited the MCA's rule, which requires only the other candidate to raise an objection.
"A voter has not right to raise the objection and Mr. Pawar has not raised so. Therefore, the voter's complaint cannot be the basis to reject my application," said Mr. Munde.
The MCA will announce its final decision on the candidature of Mr. Munde on Thursday.

Ross tells Chargers fans to keep the faith
"I think the biggest thing we did back then was stay positive," former Chargers coach Bobby Ross said. "That was very important."
The Chargers left for Jacksonville Friday, stuffing their winless mark into the overhead bin. Their woeful start is identical to Ross' 1992 beginning in San Diego, when many thought the ex-Georgia Tech coach was in over his head.
Instead, he quickly turned around the Chargers.
After being embarrassed 27-0 by the Houston Oilers, Ross' first Bolts squad reeled off 11 victories in 12 games. It won its first AFC West title since 1981 and blanked Marty Schottenheimer's Chiefs in the playoffs' first round, 17-0.
Ross said the rebound revolved around remaining upbeat.
"We just kept saying, 'We're getting better; we're getting better at this,' " said Ross, 66, from his home in Lexington, Va. "That was the big thing."
So was quarterback Stan Humphries getting more comfortable in the offense. Humphries was acquired that summer from the Redskins, after starter John Friesz blew out his knee in the preseason opener.
"Stan missed the first regular-season game entirely and then started the second game in Denver," said Ross, a 2002 Chargers Hall of Fame inductee. "He started to get acclimated to the thing, and that had a lot to do with it.
"Then we won that first game (17-6 over Seattle), and we started to get a little confidence. Then we lost just one (16-14 at Kansas City) the rest of the regular season -- we should have won that one."
What will it take for the Chargers to break their seal? Ross, who was heartbroken about Sunday's overtime loss to the Raiders, declined to offer specific advice. The modest man with 15 grandchildren did say the Chargers have the right coach in place to flip this flop of a season.
"I actually used Marty's program as a model when I came to San Diego," Ross said of those successful Chiefs teams Schottenheimer directed. "They were where we wanted to be, and we eventually got there. And it was a good run.
"I think Marty is a good coach, a fine coach. He ran into the same problem at Washington (0-5 in 2001) and turned things around that year."
What turns Ross' head is hearing the Chargers' once stout run defense is being abused for 150 yards per game. When Ross and defensive coordinator Bill Arnsparger were directing things, squashing the run was the first goal. And Ross is certain that mind-set hasn't changed with Dale Lindsey as the coordinator.
Lindsey was Ross' linebackers coach.
"We always took that approach, and I know Dale feels the same way," said Ross, who had a 50-36 mark with the Chargers from 1992-95. "I remember when we went into that playoff game with Pittsburgh (for the 1994 AFC title), we knew the Steelers were going to run so we put eight men in the box and told Neil O'Donnell to beat us. That was the key for us.
"If you can stop the run, you got a chance to control the game. If you can't, it's going to be tough. But Dale will figure it out because he's an excellent coach."

The girlfriend's bedroom, he says now with a laugh, was a lie to appease the people back home. Of course it was.
Billy and his mother kept a regular phone-calling schedule in 1985. Every Thursday at 9:30 p.m., Billy's phone would ring. He would tell his mother about his adventures in Orange County. The weather was great. The job was great (his salary was about $40,000 per year). His girlfriend was great. Life seemed to be as good as it could get for Billy Carns.
On Thursday, Aug. 22, 1985, Anne Carns ended her conversation with her son this way:
"Billy, keep your doors locked and your windows closed. There's a sick man killing people up and down the coast of California."
Billy didn't heed her advice.
On Saturday night, Aug. 24, 1985, Billy was up late in the garage. He had found storage space in the attic, and he was attaching a swinging ladder for easy access. It was a hot night (99 degrees as reported by the Register), and Billy stopped working just before midnight.
The Billy Carns who went to bed that night no longer exists.
The Night Stalker's rampage is well documented. He struck randomly, usually attacking people in their homes while they slept. Most of the murders were near Los Angeles. But he extended as far north as the Bay Area. He targeted two homes in Orange County. The first was on Via Zaragosa in Mission Viejo. The Night Stalker was scared off by a 13-year-old boy, James Romero III, who was working on his minibike in his garage.
The second home was about a mile and a half away from Romero.
The second home had two cars with North Dakota license plates in the driveway. And an open living-room window.
While Billy was sleeping, Richard Ramirez shot five times – three hit Billy in the head. One glanced off his thumb and another popped his water bed. With Billy unconscious and bleeding, Ramirez bound Billy's girlfriend with the ties he wore to work. Ramirez raped her, forced her to pray to Satan and ransacked the house.
Ramirez stole Billy's watch, his college ring, the girlfriend's promise ring, her earrings, two videocassette recorders, a compact disc player and a camera. He put the loot in a laundry basket and carried it out of the house. Ramirez even stole the dirty clothes in the basket.
When Ramirez fled, the girlfriend was able to untie herself and run across the street to the home of Roger and Sandy Bradshaw.
Billy was rushed to Mission Hospital. Police listed his condition as brain-dead. His most serious injury was a gaping gunshot wound over his left eye that went through his brain.

Funny man David Mitchell has married TV presenter Victoria Coren.
David and Victoria wed yesterday. Copyright [Rex/Wenn]
The two wed yesterday at a ceremony in North London with the guest list including a who's who of British TV talent.
David's Peep Show co-star Robert Webb took the unsurprising role of best man while Claudia Winkleman served as one of Victoria's bridesmaids.
Other celebrities who attended included Jimmy Carr, Konnie Huq, Charlie Brooker and David Baddiel.
Today, David tweeted his thanks to fans who had wished him well on the big day.
He posted: "Thanks so much for all the lovely tweets about our wedding yesterday. Having trouble phrasing it but the gist is: I'm incredibly happy."
Best mate Robert took on the role of best man at the ceremony. Copyright [Wenn]
Victoria and David first started dating in 2010 with the comic proposing in March of last year.
However, the two first met in 2007 at a showbiz party.
Unfortunately for David, Victoria was in a relationship at the time meaning that he had to wait an excruciating three years before he was able to ask her out.
In his autobiography 'Back Story: A Memoir', David explained how difficult it was for him to be in love with someone who didn't love him back.
[Related Article: Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively tie the knot]
[Related Article: Katie Waissel posts wedding photos on Twitter]
He wrote: "I think she's amazing She's brilliant at what she does. For three years I thought about her all the time, and I still do in a much happier way.
"I was hopelessly in love. I told no one about it…I didn't tell my closest friends or my parents of the enormous sadness that overshadowed my life."
Well it all turned out for the best in the end.
Congratulations to the Bride and Groom.

Canyon is grandest national park source of emergency rescues
Then there are people like Albert Shank, who are prepared and generally stick to plans they've made, but sometimes get in trouble because of circumstance or because they made a bad decision, said Marc Yeston, deputy chief ranger.
Shank was about 28 miles into what was supposed to be a 42-mile rim-to-rim run in April when his legs started cramping and his body refused to keep down any food or water. He nearly collapsed on a park bench and spent several hours having saline pumped into his body before he was able to walk out of the canyon.
The Arizona State University faculty associate, who often runs distances longer than marathons, had plenty of water, energy bars and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches but not enough electrolytes or salty food.
"That was a rookie mistake, and I'm not a rookie," he said. "I learned that no matter how good of shape you're in, the canyon is something you need to respect, and dehydration will take you down."
What can be deceiving at the Grand Canyon is that the temperature at the South Rim, where 90 percent of all visitors go, is about 20 degrees cooler than at the bottom. And while most trails lead hikers up a mountain before the downward descent, it's the opposite at the Grand Canyon.
"It's a unique set of circumstances," Ayers said. "People from all over the world need to at least hear it from somebody on what to expect. People who have never hiked the Grand Canyon before expect it to be a walk in the park."
Some hikers do undertake extraordinary preparations. But other times, rangers say they aren't sure what people were thinking. They've seen a man in a business suit carrying a briefcase full of water bottles, a man playing a tuba and people hiking without shoes or in flip-flops.
"It all stems from a lack of preplanning and knowledge of these trails," said Ian Buchanan, a seasonal park worker who advises people on smart hiking. "A lot of people get the sense that it's Disneyland when it's an environmental park."

Oxnard apartment fire displaces 30 people
Thirty people were displaced Thursday night after an electrical fire at an Oxnard apartment complex, officials said.
The fire was reported about 8:40 p.m. in the 200 block of Orchard Place, said Battalion chief Gary Sugich of the Oxnard Fire Department.
No one was injured in the blaze, Sugich said.
The fire was caused by an electrical short in a circuit breaker panel in the main building, affecting the wiring to all eight apartment units, Sugich said.
The fire also burned along the wood wall of the circuit breaker and caused approximately $15,000 worth of structural damage, Sugich said.
The property management was able to house the displaced people over night, Sugich said, and an electrician will be on scene today to repair the damage.

NEW YORK ( TheGoldAndOilGuy.com) -- After making new highs about a year ago we have seen silver and gold consolidate for roughly the last 12 months.
Technically, it would typically be a bullish scenario with gold from the standpoint that the last 12 months' price action was a sideways consolidation in a bullish pennant formation.
However, over the last year we have witnessed a series of lower highs and increasingly tested supports levels around $150 on gold that raises caution.
With the Federal Reserve pulling any extensions on further quantitative easing in the form of QE3 or other programs, the bullish case has lately been criticized.
However, I am still a firm believer that gold, in most respects, is a currency, and the only one that can maintain its value. There are very serious issues looming in Europe and across the world that are far from resolution. With few tools left in the toolbox to stimulate world economies, further easing can never be ruled out.Silver, after breaking through strong resistance around $19 to $20 in September 2011 went almost parabolic in spring 2012 prior to giving up most of its gains in the last year. There seems to be significant support around $26 on silver. However, this level has been tested quite frequently over recent months, and this again raises caution. While silver owes some of its moves to its industrial application, the high correlation between the two metals is not to be ignored.
I think the long-term trade will be long in both metals, but I'm waiting to see a significant breakout out of these consolidations on heavy volume to confirm a direction. I would like to see both precious metals break out of their respective consolidations and ultimately have further confirmation in the U.S. dollar. Any major headlines over the next couple of months involving Europe or quantitative easing may provide us with the trigger for the next big move.

Bruins Pass on Free Shots from Famous Canucks Fan
Thomas Drance
September 21 2011 12:17PM
Deadspin by way of the Boston Herald, broke the big news today that the Boston Bruins refused to accept a round of 22 shots from "movie star" Ryan Reynolds. As the story goes, Reynolds and the Bruins engaged in some banter over the result of the finals, afterwards Ryan Reynolds bought the team shots as a peace offering. The Bruins "spitefully" refused the drinks and instead gave them to a bunch of ladies at a Bachelorette party who, I'm sure, would've rather had the opportunity to touch Reynolds' abs and hear stories about what it was like to hook up with Alanis Morisette.

By Greg GelpiWinston Cup race car driver Kyle Petty and NASCAR sponsor Georgia-Pacific teamed up to put the brakes on careless driving, bringing their Teen Safety 500 program to Jonesboro and Lovejoy high schools Thursday. The Lovejoy community was rocked by the death of 16-year-old Darren Brooks, one of its students in March. Only months later, his mother Wanda Thomas returned to the school to endorse the Teen Safety 500 program and caution students of how quickly a drive to McDonalds took her son's life. His death showed what can result from inexperience and breaking the law, she said. "Darren paid the ultimate consequence for not listening to his parents," his mother said of his decision to leave school to grab breakfast and let friends ride with him. "We don't make rules to make your life not fun." Brooks had his license for three weeks when he was killed, she said. Justin Phillips, a 15-year-old passenger, was also killed when Brooks' car collided with a school bus head-on. Two other passengers, Kenneth Colvin and Armonne Gallow, and the school bus driver were also injured. Petty whips around turn after turn on the racetrack, but it's not as easy as it looks, two Lovejoy seniors said. "It was a little difficult getting it to turn on the wet track," Brady Jordan said. Jordan was one of a group of students who participated in a defensive driving session at Atlanta Motor Speedway. "I just thought we would go out there and learn stuff," Andy Lassiter said. "I didn't think we would get to drive." Made famous by his ability to drive and excel at high speeds, Petty explained the difference between professional drivers and teenagers who just earned their license. "I grew up around racecars," he said, explaining that just like he admires other professions, he couldn't do their jobs. In the same way, fans may admire him, but don't have the experience to drive at the speeds he does. "Speed is for the racetrack, not the highway," Petty said. "It's that simple." He went on to explain that racing in a "controlled environment" is different from street racing and careless driving. The seat in his No. 45 racecar alone costs $15,000 because of the special carbon fiber material it is made of to maximize safety, he said. "Everything in Winston Cup is designed for safety," Petty said. Petty listed several tips for young drivers, including turning the radio down to a normal volume, not talking on a cellular phone and buckling up. His son, Austin, was involved in a wreck last week, but was unharmed because he wore his seatbelt, Petty said. About half of all high school students will get into a driving accident before their graduation, said Bob Dallas, director of the Governor's Office of Highway Safety. The Teen Safety 500 program pits rival schools, Jonesboro High and Lovejoy High, against in each other in a race to log safe driving miles. "It's a contest that puts Lovejoy against Jonesboro, but the main thing is about keeping you safe," Petty told a packed Lovejoy gym. "Put your minds in gear before you put your car in gear." Students at both schools register online for the program and log their mileage each of the next three weeks. At the end of that time, the school with the most participants will win prizes. Also, 30 students from each school will have the opportunity to experience a high-speed skid on a wet track, breaking suddenly and changing lanes in emergency situations at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Petty ranks 12th among all active drivers in all-time poll positions and is 16th on the all-time money list.

Freshman duo can keep run of Alabama backs going
The difference was big plays.
Of 13 opponent runs of 30 yards or longer, 12 occurred away from Lincoln.
TOUCHBACK TIME: The new kickoff rules produced the desired results.
Touchbacks in the BCS conferences, plus Notre Dame, increased from 23.4 percent in 2011 to 39.4 percent in 2012, according to STATS LLC.
The spot of kickoffs moved up from the 30- to the 35-yard line this season, and when a touchback occurred, the offense started at its 25-yard line instead of the 20.
The rule was changed in an attempt to prevent injuries. NCAA data indicated that players were hurt on kickoffs more than in other phases of the game.
UCLA's Jeff Locke led the nation with 76 percent of his kickoffs (68 of 89) going for touchbacks. He was among 22 kickers, compared with only two in 2011, who produced touchbacks on at least half of his kickoffs.

Burke Put on Re-Entry Waivers, Falcons Set RosterSubmitted by chad on October 2, 2006 - 22:58
According to today's [i]Springfield Republican[/i], goaltender Sean Burke was put on re-entry waivers Sunday by the Lightning in the hope that another team claims him and takes on half of his salary. In other moves, the Falcons sent Lightning prospects Stanislav Lascek, Gerald Coleman, and Morgan Cey to Johnstown of the ECHL, which means the goaltending situation in Springfield is settled with Karri Ramo and Jonathan Boutin. The [i]Republican[/i] states that coach Steve Stirling has not decided on a starter for Saturday night's opener, however. There is also a chance Burke could be sent back down to Springfield before week's end.

The Supreme Court, county courts, and municipal courts constitute the three-tiered judicial system. The Supreme Court is the highest legal authority in all matters but constitutional questions, which are decided by the Constitutional Court. Justices on the Supreme Court are appointed by a judicial council, which is elected by the Sabor. The independence of the judiciary has been questioned, largely because many of the judges who were politically appointed in the 1990s remained in office well into the 21st century. However, there have been significant reforms to the judiciary, largely under EU pressure.
Political process
Suffrage is universal from age 18, although employed individuals may vote beginning at age 16. Multiparty elections have been held in Croatia since independence. The Croatian Democratic Union (Hrvatska Demokratska Zajednica; HDZ) and the Social Democratic Party (Socijaldemokratska partija Hrvatske; SDP) are the predominant political parties. The HDZ dominated politics in the first years of the post-Yugoslav era, having come to power in the parliamentary elections of 1990. The party leader, Franjo Tudjman, served as the first president of independent Croatia. The HDZ initially based its ideology on Croatian nationalism and the struggle for independence, but it began to lose favour after the war ended in 1995 and the population felt the pain of economic collapse. In 2000, the year after Tudjman died, the HDZ was resoundingly defeated in parliamentary and presidential elections. A multiparty centre-left coalition, led by the SDP, then governed until 2003, when the HDZ, having repositioned itself as a typical centre-right party, returned to power. The HDZ and the SDP continued to be the main contenders in subsequent elections. Both parties favoured Croatian accession to the EU.
Croatia's armed forces—comprising an army, a navy, and an air force—were created in the early 1990s with significant support from the international community, particularly the United States. Although Croatia had no army to speak of when it declared independence in 1991, within a few years an army had been trained and equipped sufficiently to be able to conduct two major operations to reclaim territory from Serb paramilitaries in 1995. However, Croatia is not a militaristic country, and it relies on the security of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), which it joined in 2009.
The Croatian police force, under the authority of the central government, has been reformed since independence. Reform efforts have focused on improving service and stamping out corruption.
Health, welfare, and housing
The health of Croatians is good compared with that of the populations of neighbouring countries. Life expectancy at birth is higher than the eastern European average, and the infant mortality rate is significantly lower. The rate of HIV infection is low, reflecting competent prevention efforts. However, the health care system is in need of investment and far-reaching reform because, being almost entirely state-provided, it imposes a substantial burden on the budget. The social welfare system is also burdensome, partly because Croatia has a large number of retirees and unemployed individuals. In urban areas, large portions of the population live in concrete tower blocks built during the Yugoslav era, which are in dire need of investment.
During its 45 years in power, the communist Yugoslav regime reduced illiteracy in Croatia from 16 percent of the population over 10 years of age to less than 4 percent. By the early 21st century, the literacy rate for Croatians over age 14 was nearly 99 percent. In addition to thousands of elementary schools, secondary schools, commercial and technical institutions, and vocational schools, the Yugoslav emphasis on education led to the founding of universities in Rijeka in 1973, in Split in 1974, and in Osijek in 1975. The oldest university in Croatia is the University of Zagreb (1669), which traces its beginnings to a Jesuit school of moral theology founded in 1632.
Cultural life
Cultural milieu
The Yugoslav version of communism—which evolved following Yugoslavia's 1948 break with the Soviet Union and the agency of international communism known as Cominform—allowed far greater autonomy and self-expression in cultural and other spheres of life than did the communist societies of most of Yugoslavia's neighbours. As a result, Croatian culture was able to develop in continuity with the Western heritage of which it has long been a part and to which it has contributed for the last thousand years.
Daily life and social customs
With a predominantly Roman Catholic population, Croatia observes Catholic religious holidays. Other important national holidays commemorate historical events. Anti-Fascist Resistance Day, June 22, marks the formation of the first Partisan unit in Croatia in 1941. Statehood Day, June 25, celebrates Croatia's declaration of independence from Yugoslavia in 1991. Independence Day, marking the day in 1991 on which Croatia formally broke with Yugoslavia, is October 8.
Croatian cuisine is heavily influenced by Turkish, central European, and Italian cuisine. Typical dishes are cabbage leaves stuffed with minced meat, ćevapčići (rolls of seasoned grilled meat), dumplings, and pickles. Along the coast, fish is served with blitva, a dish of Swiss chard mixed with potatoes and crushed garlic in olive oil. There are also local delicacies, such as cheese from the island of Pag and wine from any number of good-quality small producers, particularly in Dalmatia.

Portugal beats Netherlands 2-1 at Euro 2012
KHARKIV, Ukraine Cristiano Ronaldo's smile and swagger were back, and so was his scoring touch.
The Real Madrid forward finally found the form he was lacking at the European Championship, scoring twice in a sparkling performance Sunday to give Portugal a 2-1 win over the Netherlands and a spot in the quarterfinals.
Poised to be written off as one of the tournament's flops, Ronaldo put a miserable two-game goalless run at Euro 2012 behind him.
"Now everything is possible," said Ronaldo, who went a long way toward silencing the critics who accused him of failing to reproduce the form he showed in a sensational 60-goal club season.
Ronaldo failed to shine in Portugal's 1-0 loss to Germany and 3-2 win over Denmark, but he was devastating against the Dutch. He produced an equalizer with his first goal of the tournament in the 28th minute and scored the winner in the 74th. He had a half dozen other attempts at goal, including a low drive that clipped the post in the 16th, and he set up two clear chances for teammates.
"Ronaldo got so much criticism in the last game and he is back now," Netherlands coach Bert van Marwijk said. "That is how fast things can change."
On Sunday, Ronaldo upstaged Schalke's Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Arsenal's Robin van Persie, the leading scorers in the Bundesliga and Premier League. Neither was able to find the net at the Metalist Stadium, although midfielder Rafael van der Vaart gave the Dutch an early lead.
After that, Ronaldo stole the show.
As Portugal cranked up the pressure, Ronaldo probed the Dutch back line and tied it off of Joao Pereira's pass. It was the kind of chance he took so often at Real Madrid last season but wasted in Portugal's opening matches.
For his second, Ronaldo received a pass from former Manchester United teammate Nani, coolly wrong-footed his marker and tapped the ball past the goalkeeper.
"This was our best game so far," Portugal coach Paulo Bento said, declining to single out Ronaldo. "What is most important is that we kept fighting after we lost our opening game."
After his goals, and at the final whistle, Ronaldo beckoned his teammates to celebrate, and they mobbed him. He pulled on a shirt with "Junior" printed on it, and explained later it was for his son's second birthday.
Up next for Ronaldo and his teammates is a quarterfinal match against the Czech Republic on Thursday in Warsaw.
"We really deserved to qualify for the quarterfinals," Ronaldo said.
Euro 2012 was expected to provide a showcase for Ronaldo, but his explosive Real Madrid form had deserted him. And when he's not on form, Portugal often looks tame and ordinary.
Opposition fans mocked him whenever he put a foot wrong or failed to pull off one of his ball tricks. He was taunted with chants of "Messi" - his Barcelona and Argentina rival. And against Germany and Denmark, Ronaldo was often short-tempered with his team when he didn't get the ball supply he's used to at Real Madrid.

Texters, minus 4 Gilas aces, take on Energy today
Talk 'N Text will be without its four national team stars today—and for its next two games—when the Tropang Texters open their PBA Governors' Cup campaign against Barako Bull at Smart Araneta Coliseum in Cubao.
Jimmy Alapag, Larry Fonacier, Ranidel de Ocampo and Jason Castro have been given by management a three-game leave to rest up. In the meantime, the Texters will rely on import Tony Mitchell and Ryan Reyes in the 5:15 p.m. contest against the dangerous Energy.
The Texters will definitely be the weakest team in the field in the next three games because Talk 'N Text has already traded Jared Dillinger to Meralco and Kelly Williams remained in sick bay.
Meanwhile, the Bolts test powerhouse Petron Blaze and new coach Gee Abanilla in the 7:30 p.m. game, with the returning Mario West leading Meralco against Elijah Millsap and the re-tooled Boosters.
Dillinger, though, will still not play as he is still recovering from injuries he sustained in a vehicular accident more than two months ago.
"Management has given (Alapag, Fonacier, De Ocampo and Castro) time off to let them recover from the grind of the (recent) Fiba Asia," coach Norman Black said in a text message. "We will just do the best we can with our remaining players.
"Things will be a little difficult because of the sacrifice we made for the PH team. But at least, the country is headed for (the World Championship in) Spain."
Alapag, the former MVP, is actually in the injured list of the lineups released by the PBA on Wednesday night, when defending champion Rain or Shine nipped San Mig Coffee, 79-75, and Globalport downed Air21, 101-94.
Aside from Reyes, the other notable names left in the TNT roster are Ali Peek, Harvey Carey and Rabeh Al-Hussaini, the former UAAP MVP whom Black lobbied hard to trade for earlier in the season.
Barako Bull remains one of the oldest teams in the field and will be led by the veterans Danny Seigle and Mick Pennisi. Bong Ramos is still listed as the head coach with Rajko Toroman as his assistant.
Mitchell is not a stranger to the PBA brand of play, having seen action for the Texters in the latter stages of their Final Four playoff with Barangay Ginebra in the Commissioner's Cup.
Though he is a lethal scorer, the absence of his star teammates can give Barako Bull—and the Texters' next two foes—the luxury of ganging up on him on defense without sacrificing a lot.
The absence of De Ocampo can also work well for Al-Hussaini, Black's former dominating center at Ateneo in the UAAP who has never really lived up to his potential in two years in the league.

TIRUCHI: Festival trade reached a feverish pitch at the city's commercial centres on the eve of Deepavali.
Milling crowds inched their way across the N.S.B.Road, Singatharope, Big Bazaar Street and Nandhikovil Street, the city's central business district, all through the day. Business houses were overflowing with festival shoppers. Hundreds of hawkers had spread their wares, a prominent attraction for shoppers at the eleventh hour.
After a sluggish start, the festival trade had gained momentum only over the past 10 days, after the disbursement of bonus by major companies and government agencies. For farmers it has not been a bad year altogether, though it may not have been a particularly bounteous season. Money circulation among the farming community reflects in the festival trade here as they constitute an important group of clients for the traders in the city. Traders reported a surge in business only towards the end of the festival season.
While textile houses overflowed with festival shoppers over the past few days, long queues were witnessed at the sweet stalls on Wednesday. Despite the restrictions on roadside cracker shops, there has been a surprising increase in the number of cracker shops in the city this year with several private and cooperative supermarket chains entering the business. But the rising prices of crackers seemed to have hit the trade if the thin crowds at the shops were any indication.
Pat for police
Meanwhile, the city police have come in for some unusual praise for their effective crowd control measures this year. The installation of a series of surveillance cameras along NSB Road, Big Bazaar Street and Chinnakadai Veedhi and the constant prodding and caution over the public address system network made for better crowd management and in checking crimes as well. "The police deserve a pat in their back for the good work this year," said Ve. Govindarajulu, general secretary, Tamil Nadu Traders Federation.
The State Transport Corporations too seemed to have done better this year, operating specials to cater to the demand. With all trains being booked to capacity, a large number of commuters had to depend on the buses. Buses operating on the Tiruchi-Chennai, Tiruchi-Coimbatore, Tiruchi-Bangalore and other sectors were packed to capacity with several passengers even preferring to travel standing.

Plenty of nails being bitten around the ground. Huge afternoon for Villa. Will the home support get behind their manager? The teams are on their way out to a rowdy ovation.
Just spotted a giant beachball being blown up in the crowd. Will have that have a bizarre bearing as it did for Sunderland a couple of seasons ago?
Sun is shining on Villa Park this afternoon - but will it be a bright afternoon for the hosts? Just ten minutes to kick off.
Villa fan Brian has been in touch and says: "Congrats to Blues. Reality is if we do not get a good result today and the last two matches we could be facing the Blues next season. I do not know where the goals are going to come from. Remember Long & Jelavic are cup tied so no pressure on them playing in the final. I hope we do not have to wait to the 90th minute like blues!"
John does not appear too optimistic about the visitors' chances and says: " S B playing his dreaded five in the middle, his only change is Bruce Junior is on bench and Figueroa is called up But neither have been up to the job this season nor has the 2 5 3 formation So I wait with baited breath to so if his five in the middle will work this week."
So can Villa escape? And what do City need to make sure they don't get dragged into things on the final day? Let me know your thoughts via Twitter - @sportswebed - or via email - firstname.lastname@example.com
We're counting down to kick off. Villa fans a little subdued after hearing Birmingham escaped the drop to League One earlier.

Villa team

Adam has been in touch and admits he has a vested interest in a Tigers win. He says: "Need Hull to win this as I have £322.99 resting on it. I fancy Hull because Villa will be anxious where as Hull will be relaxed and have the best midfielder in Tom Huddlestone. I see it ending 1-2 Hull." Good luck with the bet, Adam.

Cliff Lee will rejoin the Phillies' rotation Monday
Jul 18, 2014, 8:02 PM EDT
Cliff Lee struggled in a minor-league rehab start Monday at Single-A, allowing eight runs and failing to make it out of the fifth inning as he comes back from elbow problems, but the Phillies have decided he's ready to rejoin the rotation.
Jim Salisbury of CSNPhilly.com reports that Lee will come off the disabled list to start Monday against the Giants, in Philadelphia. It'll be Lee's first big-league start since May 18 and he told Salisbury: "I feel strong and I feel good and I'm ready to try to help the team win."
At this point it seems pretty safe to assume that the Phillies would love to trade Lee and the $37.5 million remaining on his contract beyond this season, so there should be a ton of scouts in the crowd Monday night. He'll have time to make two starts before the July 31 deadline, but because of his contract and the likelihood it'll clear waivers the Phillies should be able to deal him in August without having their options limited.
- bigharold - Jul 18, 2014 at 9:22 PM
And, the Yankee audition starts Monday?
- greymares - Jul 18, 2014 at 9:42 PM
I don't believe Lee will be traded before the winter meetings in December, that's the only time the Phillies will get value.
- drush127 - Jul 18, 2014 at 11:14 PM
Ruben, Brian Cashman of the Yankees is on Line 1…..
- greymares - Jul 19, 2014 at 6:19 AM
The Yankee farm is as sad as philly's what could they give for Lee.
- paperlions - Jul 19, 2014 at 11:55 AM
Lee is owed $25M next year with a $27.5M 2016 option or a $12.5M buyout. He is owed about $10M for the remainder of this season. A team trading for lee will be paying either:
$47.5M for 1.4 years of Lee or $62.5M for 2.4 years of Lee (who turns 36 in a couple of months)
If Lee was a FA right now, no one would offer anything close to those numbers.
With that contract, the Phillies can't expect to get anything unless they eat a lot of it, and they can't expect anything more than a B- prospect or two even in that case. The Yankees may actually be a good option because they may be willing to take on the entire deal.
- trbmb - Jul 19, 2014 at 7:20 AM
Cashboy is ready to strike with plenty of cash and his usual assortment of fake prospects. This is the only skill of The Cashboy.
- jrski1966 - Jul 19, 2014 at 8:30 AM
He is going to get lit up by the Giants on Monday!! He is done. I remember when the Phillies brought Halladay back after getting lit up in the minors as well saying he was ready. What happened?? Roughed up for the rest of the year and Retirement!! Lee has more damage in that arm than is being led on… The Phillies are desperately trying to get rid of his contract. Don't be surprised if the Angels or Dodgers are both in for a trade for him. The Angels need one more arm in the rotation while the Dodgers are just trying to do anything not to lose the division to the Giants.

The U.S. military's 'casual' approach to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
- By Thomas E. RicksThomas E. Ricks covered the U.S. military for the Washington Post from 2000 through 2008. He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Abu Mook, before going into radio silence, takes a Parthian shot:
The casual arrogance with which the U.S. military has approached the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan has a direct relation to the difficulty with which we have fought each war. That we think we can send a commander to Afghanistan with no prior knowledge of Afghanistan and watch him be successful in the eleventh year of the conflict shows that after eleven years of conflict, we really don't know too much about Afghanistan. And we might not know too much about conflict either.
I've had this sense, but have never been able to put it into words as well as Abu Mook does here. "Casual arrogance" captures it exactly.

On July 25, the DOJ announced the indictment of five individuals accused of conspiring in a worldwide hacking and data breach scheme that targeted major corporate networks, stole more than 160 million credit card numbers and resulted in hundreds of millions of dollars in losses. The DOJ believes the defendants and others conspired to use a "SQL injection attack" to penetrate the computer networks of several of the largest payment processing companies, retailers and financial institutions in the world. Once started, the attacks could last months while the defendants worked to steal user names and passwords, means of identification, credit and debit card numbers and other corresponding personal identification information of cardholders, and subsequently sell the data to end-users who used the data to make fraudulent ATM withdrawals or credit card purchases. The DOJ's action was based on the findings of an extensive Secret Service investigation.

The leaders of France and Germany struck a more conciliatory tone on Wednesday ahead of the Group of 20 economic summit, standing firm on the need to sign up to new financial market regulations but backing off from an earlier threat by French President Nicolas Sarkozy to walk out.
Speaking at a news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Sarkozy said concrete steps must be taken now on tax havens, hedge funds and ratings agencies.
He said France and Germany had set all three as "red lines" in the negotiations, suggesting that if the summit doesn't agree to rein them in, it will have failed.
Merkel said both leaders had come "in a very constructive mood." But she said that "we do not want results that have no impact in practice."
Sarkozy avoided reiterating an earlier threat to walk out of the summit. He had implied he might walk out if the summit's agreement didn't toughen financial regulation.
He said Wednesday that: "I have confidence in Obama" and "I am sure that he will help us and that he will understand us."
As for walking out, he said "it would be annoying to leave when I have just arrived."
Sarkozy set out ultimatums, however, on tax havens, hedge funds and ratings agencies. He said France and Germany had set all three as "red lines" in the negotiations, suggesting that if the summit doesn't agree to rein them in, it will have failed.
Asked whether Mr. Obama's resistance to greater regulation was growing, Merkel replied: "I can't confirm that."
"We have seen with satisfaction that there is now a great deal of talk about regulation in the United States of America," she said, noting that "there are a lot of versions of the text, things are in flux."
"I think there are definitely chances for us to move forward here in this area, which is important to us," Merkel said.
Meanwhile, G20 protesters clashed with riot police in downtown London on Wednesday, breaking into the heavily guarded Royal Bank of Scotland and smashing its windows. Earlier, they tried to storm the Bank of England and pelted police with eggs and fruit.

26.01.04 - By Frank Gonzalez Jr.: Sharkies Machine: Boxing is not like other sports where you have this thing called parity. In boxing, one guys always going to be better than his opponent, who might be considered a better fighter. Boxing has many divisions where only few have more than four really dominant fighters. Boxing is full of stacked decks and unfair decisions but through it all, sometimes we just get a great fight. This week, we had a couple of notables play out. This was the best week in Boxing so far this year. There was Sheika vs. Pemberton, Bojado vs. Clottey and Gatti vs. Branco. All competitive match ups. Heres a look at them in that order.
Scott Pemberton vs. Omar Sheika
The rematch between Scott The Sandman Pemberton and Omar Sheika scored a point for the argument that good boxing skills can win over power-punching brawlers. The rematch was shaping up to be a carbon copy of the first fight, which Pemberton won by decision.
The first round saw Pemberton just barely outbox Sheika though it could have been scored either way. By the second round, Pemberton was sent to the canvas--just like in their first fight, when Scott went down in the second round. This time The Sandman got up and won the next three rounds (on my card).
Pemberton was given a standing eight count in the sixth round after being raked into the ropes by a Sheika onslaught. Pemberton was wobbled, and referee Gary Rosato made that call in a fight that posted No Standing Eight Count as rules for the bout. Strange but true.
These guys are Blue-Collar fighters, working class fighters who have to work real hard for everything and get paid little compared to the brand name fighters who often do so little. Sheika has been a contender who fought and lost to WBO Champion, Joe Calzaghe. On Sheikas bright side, hes got a lot of heart and some pop in his punch. The problem with Sheika is his lack of defense. He does not do well combining offense and defense. His fundamental skills are fair at best. It proved to be a real shortcoming against rival Scott Pemberton.
Pemberton is the kind of fighter that has respectable boxing prowess and can accumulate enough punches in spots to knock guys out. He does not have the best chin though. It took some doing and a trip to the canvas along the way but Scott got the job done against Omar Sheika.
This being his third loss in a row, Sheikas career is taking a downward turn. But hes a brave warrior and always game so Im sure hell get plenty of work, but only for limited rewards.
Pembertons fortunes look to be going up. He says he wants to fight for the big purse so he can buy his family a house. He deserves it. Pemberton is a crowd-pleasing fighter who demonstrates the complete drama of a boxing match in his fights. He gets knocked down--but gets back up and gives his all. Hes inspirational. Hes like that little train that thinks he can.
I look forward to seeing Pemberton return to face the likes of Charles The Hatchet Brewer, who beat The Sandman by TKO 6 in their August 2002 meeting. Couple the redemption factor with the way both guys fight, it would be a great addition to any major fight card in the near future. At 37 years old, Scott doesnt have the luxury of taking his time if he wants to contend for a major title. He may never win one but hes fun to watch try. He needs to stay active and that million-dollar payday may find him yet.
