Sneak Peek of Jon and Kate Plus 8's Fifth Season!
Like us on Facebook
There's been a lot of rumors swirling about TLC's favorite parents of multiples, The Gosselins, as of late, but longtime fans of Jon and Kate Plus 8 are focusing their attention on counting down the days until the fifth season of the lovable big brood's show begins. In this sneak peek clip, feisty Kate gives Emeril Lagasse a new meaning to his signature BAM! when she whacks him with a spatula after he tells her to let Jon be while cooking. The famous chef traveled to the family's abode to tape their 100th episode and he was even allowed behind the kitchen island! Are you excited about the new season?

We were so stoked when singer/model/actress/all-around babetron Nazanin Mandi stopped by NGHQ last month to talk all-things festival, but, dang, girl was not kidding about having a killer time in the desert (and mastering those well-lit selfies). She shared some seriously awesome snaps with us, and, well, we'll let her do all the talking. Take it away, Nazanin!
Tuesday, March 25, 2014 Guest Edit: Cailin Hill's Adventures In Okinawa, Japan
I've never actually gone on a vacation before. OK, that's a lie. Once I went to Costa Rica in the off-season with a guy I wasn't dating and learned my lesson HARD about off-season vacationing and the rules of platonic relationships while abroad. *ahem* It was complete misery and—beyond the boy troubles—it rained every single day. A total write-off. I've been in Tokyo for a year now, and it's the longest I've lived in a country since I began traveling in my early 20s. I went a bit mad and booked a vacation to Okinawa on a whim, which is still in Japan but perhaps the farthest place from Tokyo that I could get to on a 3-day weekend.
Monday, March 3, 2014 Guest Edit: Why Pink Is Punk
Just in time for prom, Paris-based writer Alice Cavanagh explains the current pink trend—and why it's way more punk than you think.
For my fifth birthday my parents threw me a pink party. Everyone (even my dad, poor guy) wore pink. There were pink balloons strewn all over the place, pink cotton candy, and a big chocolate cake with pink icing. I even took the theme one step further by anointing guests with a stripe of fluoro pink zinc (this was summertime in Australia, after all) across their noses upon arrival. To keep the peace, the few boys invited were offered orange zinc instead, but one of them, Ethan, insisted on having pink. I remember us girls thinking he was a weirdo. We giggled into our frosted-pink cupcakes and teased him all afternoon. Now I think back on it, though, Ethan was pretty punk.

Why are racquetball racquets so crazy and stupid
I've strung every E-Force i think (judgment, bedlam, launchpad, etc) and some crazy wilsons where the string goes down through the sides of the handle between the grip.....and sometimes when i'm trying to get enough light in the handle to see which tube is red and which is orange, i ask myself WHY!!!! Is there some techno guy out there that can give me a good explanation why racquetball sticks have to be so different.....i mean, prince (ektelon) keeps their O3 tech. consistent in these, and it's great......i'm sure there's more of you out there who get annoyed like me....please, comiserate!
I laughed so hard just at the title. So true.
Maybe it's a running joke in R&D at the plant.
"Look where I have the mains going THIS time!"
"Sweet, they're gonna have such a fit over this one!"
*high fives all around*
Hahaha! I know this a useless post, but that was great.
edit-- ah, it keeps getting better. I have a feeling that this is going to be one funny thread.
Think of it this way. A ping pong player would find stringing a tennis racket insane: YOU"VE GOT 18 BY 20 STRINGS THAT I'VE GOT TO STRING?!!! F OFF!!! "
isnt funny that there is a bag for ping pong paddles? imagine a super six pack for ping pong paddles! XD
Wouldn't that be like a lunch box or something? LOL.
Every time I see this thread I can't help but laugh. We need to keep it around just for good spirits. :D :D :D
Wheelie Pong Bag
And yes those Racquet ball paddles where the strings go down and loop around a piece inside the handle freak me out :)
^^^ What is that? a 100-pack? :D *slaps knee*
hahaha that's all good stuff. i'm just waiting for a racquet to come out that has a bunch of different colored tubes for the crosses and there's some ridiculous pattern to them as well
raquetball is just a ******** form of squash
a. The hitting surface, defined as the main area of the stringing pattern
bordered by the points of entry of the strings into the frame or points
of contact of the strings with the frame, whichever is the smaller, shall
be flat and consist of a pattern of crossed strings connected to a frame
and alternately interlaced or bonded where they cross. The stringing
pattern must be generally uniform and, in particular, not less dense in
the centre than in any other area.
The racket shall be designed and strung such that the playing characteristics
are identical on both faces. The racket shall be free of attached
objects, protrusions and devices other than those utilised
solely and specifically to limit or prevent wear and tear or vibration or,
for the frame only, to distribute weight. These objects, protrusions and
devices must be reasonable in size and placement for such purposes.
The frame of the racket shall not exceed 29.0 inches (73.7 cm) in
overall length, including the handle. The frame of the racket shall not
exceed 12.5 inches (31.7 cm) in overall width. The hitting surface
shall not exceed 15.5 inches (39.4 cm) in overall length, and 11.5
inches (29.2 cm) in overall width.
The frame, including the handle, and the strings, shall be free of any
device which makes it possible to change materially the shape of theof a racket may be built into or attached to a racket.
racket, or to change the weight distribution in the direction of the
longitudinal axis of the racket which would alter the swing moment of
inertia, or to change deliberately any physical property which may
affect the performance of the racket during the playing of a point. No
energy source that in any way changes or affects the playing characteristics
The rules governing the racquet in racquetball:
Rule 2.4 RACQUET SPECIFICATIONS
(a) The racquet, including bumper guard and all solid parts of the handle, may not exceed 22 inches in length.
(b) The racquet frame may be any material judged safe.
(c) The racquet frame must include a cord that must be securely attached to the player's wrist.
(d) The string of the racquet must be gut, monofilament, nylon, graphite, plastic, metal, or a combination thereof, and must not mark or deface the ball.
(e) Using an illegal racquet will result in forfeiture of the game in progress or, if discovered between games, forfeiture of the preceding game. The penalty for playing with an otherwise legal racquet with a grip extending beyond the 22-inch limit if noted during the course of a game shall be a technical foul and a timeout to correct the problem. Subsequent violations will result in the loss of the game in process. If the challenged racquet is found to be within the 22-inch limit, then a timeout will be charged to the player who made the challenge.
The racquetball rules don't limit the size of the hitting surface nor the planarity of the stringbed. The only physical limit is the length (22") of the overall racquet. Longer strings make a more powerful racquet (all else being equal). Two manufacturers now have made some or all of the mainstrings full length (22") - E-Force(patented strings thru the handle) and Wilson. Most of the others have attempted to maximize the length of their mains.
And, yes the stringing patterns are sometimes . . . challenging, but then what do you call the Wilson T2000. Hey, maybe the guy that designed the T2000 went to work for E-Force! :cool:
[QUOTE=Belmonte13;2130242]...WHY!!!! Is there some techno guy out there that can give me a good explanation why racquetball sticks have to be so different.....QUOTE]
It's mostly about power. There is no such thing as thing as being too powerful when it comes to racquetball. As such, the theory is the longer the strings, the more powerfull the racquet. A rball frame is limited to 22 inches in length, so having the strings go thru/around the handle is one way to maximize the length of the mains.
Another issue regarding the design of tennis vs rball frames is the location of the sweet spot. Rball players have to contend with walls, and often do not have the room to make contact with the ball exactly in the center of the stringbed. It is common for better players to take full, offensive and powerful shots at balls that are only 6 inches (or less) from a side wall. Hitting in the center of the frame is just not an option in this situation.
Rball racquets are designed to have the sweet spot located further towards the head. This is one reason why rball frames are generally more teardrop shaped instead of round/oval like tennis frames. Also, you will see more cross strings closer to the head of the frame, to better support the mains from shearing due to the powerful hits that will occur at the top of frame. The "ridicuous patterns" (especially common with the Eforce racquets) are also used to help prevent shearing due to top-of-frame hits. I'll try to explain this (images might be necessary) if anyone's really interested.
I am. I want to learn. :D
Eforce actually has a patent on their "bypass stringing":
It is designed that none of the 8 center main strings are adjacent to another string linked thru the head of the frame:
Hitting at the end of the frame doesn't allow the string room to deflect/stretch like it does in the middle of the sweet spot. The bypass pattern allows some of the stress to be passed to strings that are not in contact with the ball . A standard pattern places all this stress is in very small section of string - leading to shearing at the frame. Please excuse my crude attempts at illustrating this:
With that explained - I must say that I have no appreciation or understanding of the logic behind the IGS (inner grommet system) for the crosses on the Head rball racquets. Just a PITA with no redeeming value, if you ask me...
Nice. Very informative.
Head's interior grommet system and multifilament strings add time to stringing, both "pushing on a string" and the tensioning.
Stringing racquetball frames, because of the physical setup and the care needed, takes longer than for tennis frames, generally speaking.
Grommets for tennis are much superior today than a decade or two ago. Grommets for racquetball have better material and there have been some frame design improvements, but the nature of the game and the frame means that grommets are still an issue.
Haha, it's funny that someone started a thread about this. I just had to string an E-Force Bedlam last night. Whenever I get them I know I'm going to be in for an hour-long string job using a drinking straw, pliers, a vacuum, fishing weights, duct tape, and whatever other tools are used to make stringing E-Force racquets easier. :lol:
Maybe I should just refuse to continue stringing E-Force rball racquets. I wouldn't be the only shop in town to do so.

Hiker Who Found Fossett Items Thanked
Millionaire Richard Branson used a morning talk show to thank Preston Morrow, who found items of missing adventurer Steve Fossett in the California mountains.
"If it wasn't for Preston, I think we would have had no chance of ever finding Steve," Branson, a friend of Fossett, said Thursday on CBS' "The Early Show."
The British business magnate noted Morrow, on a day hike Tuesday along a mountain in Mammoth Lakes, Calif., found several items belonging to Fossett, who disappeared in 2007, contacted authorities and returned to get GPS coordinates.
The day after Morrow found Fossett's belongings, the wreckage was found in the mountainous back country near Mammoth Mountain during an aerial search Wednesday. Fossett, 63, disappeared on Sept. 3, 2007, on a solo flight from a remote ranch in Nevada.
The good news about Morrow's discovery, Branson said, "is that hopefully this will put to rest all the frivolous stories that have been going around once and for all, ,and give everybody who was close to Steve the chance to pay … the right tributes to an absolutely incredible, great and extraordinary man."

In a previous Payment Matters article, we described a new CMS policy under which, effective January 1, 2014, hospitals would no longer be permitted to bill Medicare separately for clinical laboratory tests for hospital outpatients. Instead, these tests would be "packaged" into the Medicare outpatient prospective payment system (OPPS). In the final rule adopting this policy, CMS stated that it planned to issue revised contractor instructions for billing for laboratory tests for hospital outpatients.
These instructions were included in Transmittal 2485, "SUBJECT: January 2014 Update of the Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OOPS)," issued on December 27, 2013. CMS's instructions further define those laboratory tests that would be exempt from the "packaging" requirement. Tests performed under the following three scenarios would not be "packaged," but instead would continue to be paid under the Medicare clinical laboratory fee schedule (CLFS):
The instructions specify that the same "packaging" principles apply whether the hospital actually performed the laboratory tests or they were provided "under arrangement," that is, the tests were performed by another laboratory that had agreed to accept payment from the hospital as full compensation for the test.
CMS instructs that when a laboratory test is not required to be "packaged" with another outpatient service for the same patient, the laboratory test should be billed on a 14x claim; the other hospital outpatient service should be billed on a 13x claim.
The new instructions state that a "non-patient" – whose clinical laboratory tests would not be "packaged" – continues to be defined as a Medicare beneficiary who is not a hospital inpatient or outpatient, but whose specimen is submitted to the hospital for analysis and the beneficiary is not physically present at the hospital.
The instructions do not address specifically when a laboratory test will be considered to have been provided during the "same encounter" as other hospital outpatient services. The longstanding definition of an "encounter" is a direct personal contact between a patient and a physician or other person authorized to order or furnish hospital services for the diagnosis or treatment of a patient. The agency has recognized previously that when a patient leaves a hospital and obtains a diagnostic test from another provider, the test is not considered to have been furnished to a hospital outpatient during an encounter. The determination regarding when one encounter ends and another begins may be more difficult when only a single provider is involved in the patient's care.
CMS regulations, as revised to reflect the new laboratory "packaging" policy, will state only that "[c]ertain clinical diagnostic laboratory tests" are paid as part of payment rates for outpatient services under OPPS. 42 C.F.R. § 419.2(b)(17). They will not include a detailed explanation of the principles to be used in determining whether a clinical laboratory test must be "packaged" or whether separate payment for the test can be claimed under the CLFS. Similarly, the CMS transmittal that included related contractor instructions did not revise language in the CMS manuals to reflect the new laboratory "packaging" policy. Accordingly, pre-existing language in certain agency manuals could lead a hospital or clinical laboratory to an incorrect result. In addition, other CMS interpretations have used different language in distinguishing a "non-patient" from a hospital inpatient or outpatient; those definitions may not be directly applicable to the determination as to whether tests can be billed separately or must be "packaged" into OPPS, but they could result in confusion. Hospitals should retain a copy of the transmittal for future reference, at least until the policy is incorporated into CMS manuals.

Jack Russell: Eddie from Frasier, the Comedy T.V Series (1992-2004)
The Jack Russell named Moose – that played the character of Eddie in the sitcom called Frasier- made his first appearance on the long-running Cheers spin-off in the first episode on 16 September 1993. He retired 10 years later; in 2003. The show finished in 2004. Moose shared the part of Eddie with his son, Enzo. During the height of Frasier's popularity, Moose received more fan mail than any of his human counterparts. Believed to be one of the most disciplined TV/Movie animals in the history of television, he was superbly trained, and was also one of the most lovable dogs as well. He died aged 16, in Los Angeles.
Jack Russells are friendly, alert, playful and very intelligent little dogs.
You can''t teach an old dog new tricks, or so the saying goes. But, if the story of a pair of English Jack Russell Terriers is anything to go by, it seems an old dog can teach a younger one a thing or two.
For the past five years, a Jack Russell called Freddie, who lives with his owner Patricia Swinley in Gloucestershire, has regularly taken a ride on the back of a friendly Shetland pony called Daisy. When seven year old Freddie recently became friendly with a younger Jack Russell, called Percy, he was determined to share the experience with him.
One day Freddie invited Percy up and the pair went for a ride. Percy quickly got the hang of it and the pair became regular passengers on Daisy's back, amazing locals in their village, Flaxley. The only problem now is th at the pair often argue over whose turn it is to go first. There is no such squabbling when the pair take an alternative form of transport, in a little cart that Daisy pulls through the village.
This dog is out on mission, and only one thing can satisfy him – The complete obliteration of those means balloons!
Don't have a garden to play with your dog? No probs! This cute little invention will ensure that you can have as much fun with your dog as you want.

Did you ever believe that dogs can surf? Almost 2000 spectators gathered at Imperial Beach in San Diego on the 29th of June to watch 60 dogs battle it out at the Loews Coronado Bay Resort Surf Dog Competition.
To cap it all, the dogs were complete with accessories like Sun Glasses, and life vest! The competition was won by the Jack Russel Terrier Zoey.
We love stories about dogs making great escapes. The latest to catch our eye is the one of the dog that escaped from a rabbit hole by losing weight.
Jake, a Jack Russell, disappeared after scrambling down into a rabbit warren in Pembrokeshire, Wales while out walking with his owners earlier this year. The owners, Jill and Rick Thomas, were distraught when he didn't reappear. Despite them offering a reward to anyone who might have seen Jake emerging from another part of the rabbit warren, he remained missing for 25 days.
But then one day Jake reappeared – looking a lot slimmer. It turned out that he had been too overweight to squeeze back out of the hole and had remained trapped in the warren. As he lay in the tunnel Jake started to lose weight. When he had shed 2kg he was able to wriggle free.
"We are just so glad to have him home – it's incredible he survived. He's a lot thinner but very happy," his owner Jill Thomas said.
If you only buy and read one dog book this year, make it One dog at a Time.
Well, there are over 150 registered dog breeds. Apart from this, there are those that are purebred and not registered; designer-dogs and so many sizes, colors and temperaments of pavement specials that it is not an easy question to answer. Euro Puppy has done a bit of research. We collected 20 comments and made an analysis at the end of it:
•"It depends on a person who likes the dog…but for me, any breed as long as it makes you feel comfortable and can make it as your best friend."
•"The Border Collie is a truly great family dog and demonstrably is the most trainable for commands."
•"The Japanese Akita, besides being fiercely loyal, is definitely the strongest animal to protect your children against stray bears."
•"A wild mix of a shepherd dog with real wolf, or the coyote with a Keeshond! These wild mixes are truly the most perspicacious (keenly aware) due to their inherent advanced outdoor awareness (with a notably higher neurological brain stem) than any domesticated dog."
•"If you're truly an animal lover, it doesn't matter about which breed is the best."
•"They are ALL the best."
•"I have a French bulldog and I love that breed! I am not sure that I will ever have any dog after I lose this one, but if I do, that will be a French bulldog as well."
•"The best breed of dog for you depends on the distinctive characteristics that are important to you, the amount of time you can dedicate to the dog, the space available for the dog, your patience, type of food you lavish on the dog etc. Always think long-term when looking for a dog. A puppy that you have today will have different needs when it grows up. If you live in a apartment don't choose a energetic dog like a lab retriever. These dogs need lots of exercise and a decent amount of space to move around."
•"Golden Retrievers. They have everything Labradors have but are better looking with shinier fur!"
•"Labradors. They're super friendly, playful, easy to train, and friendly with children. They're also cute, and are a lot more fun than little Paris Hilton-ish purse dogs."
•"Weiners! They're Hilarious."
•"How big is your house? How big is your family? Do you have children? These and many other questions need to be answered to pick the right dog breed. However, a dog's personality is not only due to its breed, and mixes are usually better for many reasons. Go by a shelter and ask around. They will help you pick the best dog for your situation."
It isn't often that a dog outshines his master – especially when the master is a celebrity in his own right. Yes this was precisely the situation with Christopher Richard (Rick) Stein and his Jack Russell Terrier Chalky.
Rick was a famous chef and TV personality, who had Chalky as part of his show. Due to his hilarious antics, Chalky eventually arrived at a place in the public's heart that even his master could not reach. When Chalky died, a motion was tabled in parliament honoring his death.
Jack Russell Terriers are extremely intelligent due to the important role they play in hunting where they are required to hold quarry down in it's hole until it can be excavated. This also explains the fact that they are extremely vocal.
It is commonly accepted that Jack Russells need adequate stimulation in order to be mentally happy. Without this, they can become destructive.
Jack Russell Terriers are also extremely long lived. This is due to careful breeding. Indeed, Chalky – the dog we met at the beginning of this article was almost 18 years of age when he passed away! He continued filming with his owner till the last month of his death.

La Cana Albarino 2013
Albarino from Rias Baixas, Spain
Winemaker's Notes
The 2013 Albarino Bodegas La Cana is fermented in stainless steel (80%) and large format barrels (20%) with aging on lees. On the nose, mineral notes, lemon peel, spices confectionery, and floral announce this round and tasty white soft texture. With excellent volume and length, and an excellent price / quality ratio, you can enjoy for 3-4 years.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Green-tinged yellow. High-pitched aromas of lime zest, green apple, ginger and chalky minerals; showing very good clarity. Bright and nervy on the palate, offering bitter citrus fruit and quince flavors and a sexy floral nuance. Weightier on the persistent finish, which features fleshy pear and melon character and repeating minerality. About 15% of this wine was barrel-fermented.

About Rias Baixas(REE-ez BUY-shuss) Spain's prominent white wine region. Situated in Galacia, the region is wet and rainy with some large temperature changes due to its proximity to the coast. The main grape of note here is Albarino, the white variety known for creating fragrant and fruity wines perfect for seafood. The bottles are easily recognized as they all print "Albarino" on their label.
Notable FactsThere are sub-districts in Rias Baixas, a few of them are more prone to blending Albarino with some other indigenous grapes, which can make the wines more aromatic or fuller-bodied. Both single variety Albarino and blended wines excel in this area. Aromatic and light, one whiff of these whites may bring thoughts of a Sauvignon Blanc, but after one sip the creamy texture says otherwise. Typical aromas and flavors are peach, honeysuckle, lime and vanilla.
About Spain
The most popular red varieties of Spain include Tempranillo and Garnacha (Grenache). Whites don't garner quite as much recognition, but there are some regional varieties not to be missed, like Albarino and Verdejo. The popular red regions of Spain include Rioja, known for its outstanding wines of the Tempranillo grape; Ribera del Duero, producing high quality reds from Tempranillo and Garnacha; Galacia, with the sub-region of Rias Baixas, home to the deliciously crisp and floral Albarino grape; and Priorat, a region increasing in popularity with its high-quality cult reds. Other regions of note are Rueda, growing the Verdejo grape, La Mancha, a wide desert region, covered in the most planted white variety in the world, Airen, and Jumilla, making wines based on Monastrell (Mourvedre).
Spain's wine laws are based on the Denominacion de Origen (DO) classification system, devised in the 1930's. A four tiered system, the most basic level is Vina de Mesa (table wine) followed by Vino de la Tierra (country wine), DO and at the top DOC. Currently, only Rioja and Priorat have DOC status, while over 65 DO's scatter the country.
Most DO regions are classified and regulated by how long they age the wines. On a red wine label, one may find the terms Crianza, Reserva or Gran Reserva, denoting the wine's barrel and bottle time. Crianza is usually two years between barrel and bottle (the time in each depends on the DO and/or the winemaker), Reserva up to 4 years and Gran Reserva 5 – 6 years. Classifications of each region and wine are controlled by the region's Consejo Regulador.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.

Mosquito Net Pop-Up Dome
Mosquitoes and other biting insects are active at night. In regions where malaria and other insect-borne diseases are common, a mosquito net around your bed or sleeping bag is essential.
The Care Plus Mosquito Net Pop-Up Dome incorporates a frame that automatically unfolds when you take it out of its bag and creates a dome over the head end of the net. There is no need to find an attachment point from which to hang the net making it extremely convenient to use and suitable for use in the open air.
The net is impregnated with Durallin, which is lethal to insects but harmless to humans, so they cannot land on the net and bite you through it. This means you can use it in areas where there is a malaria risk. The impregnation lasts for three years with daily use and it is possible to wash the net 20 times without losing the effectiveness.

St. Joseph kicked off the spring football season for St. Johns County schools with a 20-14 victory over Gainesville Oak Hall, Friday night in Gainesville.
"Overall, I was very happy with the spring," said St. Joseph football coach Matt Olesnevich. "With all the injuries, and everything else, we came out, got the W and everyone got to play."
The enthusiasm surrounding the St. Joseph football program is such that 30 people have participated in this year's spring practice. While that may not sound like a robust number elsewhere, it represents more than 10 percent of the St. Joseph student body.
It's a far cry from coach Matt Olesnevich's first season when only eight players consistently showed up for spring practice.
The Flashes will be the first St. Johns County school to kick off in a spring game when they travel to Gainesville to play the Oak Hall School tonight.
New Faces
By the time the Flashes woke up, the dust had settled on the runs that would end their baseball season. University Christian capitalized by using small ball to produce big runs in route to a 4-0 win in Thursday's Region 1-3A quarterfinal at Kuhn Field.
The Christians used a walk, infield error and bunt single to load the bases in the top of the second. All three of those runs wound up scoring.
It's a gift, not birthright to advance to regional competition in track and field, especially in a state like Florida, which is known for its athletes.
David Jones, Zack Bias and Chloe Ways understand that more than most, because the three local athletes were all fighting injuries or personal disappointment this time a year ago and watching the competition from afar.
Jones, a senior at Ponte Vedra, competed in the pole vault after completing his first injury-free track and field season since eighth grade.
Daniel Foley may be an embodiment of the virtues of positive peer pressure.
The Florida High School Athletic Association recently named Foley to its 2015 Academic All-State team. The honor would not have been possible were it not for a trio of friends — John, Lauren and Michelle Cancio — who encouraged him to try out for the cross country team back when he was a freshman.
The unbeaten Bartram Trail boys team leads after the first day of the District 4-3A tournament with 12 points. Ponte Vedra is two points behind the Bears, while Nease is third with seven points.
A slight-looking midfielder with quick feet and a quicker brain will never remain out of vogue for too long in soccer. Munir Adamo is well aware of this fact and modeled his game accordingly.
Throughout his career at Ponte Vedra High, Adamo has adroitly found space for himself and teammates. This winter he added goal scoring to his arsenal, and the Sharks feasted on opponents near and far because of it. Those attributes and others are among the reasons the first junior captain in program history was named The Record's 2015 Player of the Year.
The Flashes improved to 11-0 after a comfortable 14-0 victory Tuesday at Kuhn Field. Thompson Hinman (2 for 2) hit a triple, scored three runs and drove in two more. David Drysdale hit a double, scored three times and produced a RBI. Ethan Maronel (1 for 2) scored a run and drove in a pair as well. Jake James won his sixth straight decision this season after pitching three innings, allowing one hit and striking out four.
Two or three seasons ago, coming away with a victory would have been met with enthusiasm by the St. Joseph baseball team regardless of how it played.
These days, the expectation is not only to win but also to continue improving each time players step onto the diamond.
And that, as much as anything, is a sign of progress for the Flashes.
St. Joseph baseball coach Bryan Hinman spent the summer building a state-of-the-art manual scoreboard to add to the feel of Kuhn Field.
His team wasted no time making sure it worked properly Friday afternoon in its home opener.
The Flashes batted around in the second inning and scored runs all four times they came to the plate during a five-inning, 13-2 victory over visiting First Coast Christian. Almost as important, operation of the scoreboard went by without much of a hitch.
Nease scored four runs in the first and never looked back en route to an 8-5 victory in Thursday's District 4-6A contest against St. Augustine. Bailey Pattison was 2 for 3 with a double and Alyssa Miranda was also 2 for 3 for the Panthers (6-2, 1-0). Maddie Jones picked up her fifth win in six decisions, pitching a complete game. She allowed two earned runs, struck out eight, walked one and hit two more. Offensively, St. Augustine was led by Taylor Hartley (1 for 4, 2B, 2 RBI), Taylor Allen (1 for 2, RBI), Taylor Sweat (1 for 3, RBI) and Olivia Jarrell.

As a young diva, Tara was scolded by her kindergarten teacher for disrupting class by constantly singing. Her music was better received at Columbia University, where jazz and classical coaches "shaped" her voice and supported her singing career. Encouraged by her professors and peers, including a Columbia-Juilliard exchange student with whom she occasionally writes songs, Tara decided to pursue a singing career not by dropping out like a few of her successful Columbia contemporaries (eg, Alicia Keys, Lauryn Hill) but speeding through school. In a record 2 ½ years, Tara graduated as an Economics major.
Armed with years of songwriting, stacks of poetry, and intense New York City performances, Tara returned to San Francisco to focus purely on music. In 2010, she met and began collaborating with multi-instrumentalist Jason Cirimele. The pair traveled constantly between San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles, in order to play shows and record the "Tara Priya" EP.
After being named 1 of 3 "Pop" finalists in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest for her single "Memories", Tara released her EP, gaining distribution in the US and Japan, and played in CMJ Music Marathon and the 2010 Miami Music Festival. In 2011, she was named a Top 25 finalist in Nashville's Music City Songwriting Contest, performed in the NAMM Show, had slots in the Canadian Music Fest and SXSW, and, in March, won the 18th Annual Billboard Song Contest for her song "Rollin'".
Of Indian-Persian ancestry, Tara is the great-niece of famed Persian poet Sohrab Sepehri. When not touring, she resides in Los Angeles.
"For those seeking a soulful jam, Columbia University's latest singing sensation, Tara Priya, offers a nostalgic escape from the autotune avalanche. Her sound is a throwback to the likes of Billie Holiday and Etta James, but never anachronistic. With influences ranging from Tupac to opera, Tara has developed a powerful voice of her own…"

Earlier last week, AAP party released its national manifesto setting off a controversy over the non inclusion of LGBT reforms that were promised earlier.
The document released ahead of the Lok sabha elections of 2014 was received with mixed expressions of disappointment by LGBT rights activists who were looking towards the new party with hopes of championing their cause.
However, in a quick attempt to save the situation Mumbai manifesto was released by AAP today and included the much discussed LGBT reforms and a call to repeal the Section 377 that criminalises consensual sexual relations among homoosexuals.
AAP Maharashtra state secretarty Preeti Sharma Menon, explained, "LGBT reforms were always meant to be part of the city manifesto and not the national document."
"The draft for the Mumbai manifesto, in fact, was released as far back as a month and a half ago. And we confirmed the same with activists in the meeting conducted last week," she elaborates.
The news was received with much jubilation by LGBT activists who were pinning their hopes on the party to do the right thing. Celebrated equal rights activist Harrish Iyer, who recently quit his job to join the party said, "It is a welcome move by AAP to include LGBT rights in their Mumbai manifesto. Not many political parties will engage with the LGBT community and then address the issue in earnest."
"Not only is AAP proactive in listening to the LGBT community, people like Preeti go to the police station and fight cases on behalf of LGBT people. AAP has shown through their actions that they really believe in equal rights," he added.
He also tweeted the part of manifesto that includes the LGBT rights:
@AAPMumbai manifesto spells out it's stand against discrimination and on Section 377. pic.twitter.com/DJCp03ztpw

But why a city-centric manifestos?
"Let's not look at these documents as manifestos," says Menon. "They are essentially the stance of AAP leaders towards issues that plague this city the most. Being a new party we felt the need for the candidates to express their beliefs and ideas on key issues of a city such as Mumbai."
She further reiterated, "AAP believes that a national manifesto is not adequate to address important local concerns. The party hopes to establish Swaraj—de-centralisation of power—in the city of Mumbai."

I have just finished a malware check and McAfee, Malwarebytes show no threats. However, Superantispyware registered 66 threats of sites using SQLITE. I also use Abine.com Do Not Track Plus on my webrowsers. Why is Superantispware only picking up these tracking threats and when removed how can they be prevented from reocurring?

Do you use Firefox? If so these are probably harmless cookies.

I often find that SAS finds tracking cookies not found by MBAM, although only one or two. I use Abine DNT+, but also have Abine and Easylist in tracking protection. Have you enabled this in Tools,Safety, Tracking Protection? (I use IE9) It seems to really reduce the incidence.If you go this route you can select which tracking protection to have (I use Abine Standard Tracking Protection List and EasyPrivacy Tracking Protection List)

PS As Woolwell says these are likely to be from Firefox. Just Google SQLITE tracking cookies and you will see how to stop them if you wish.

Woolwell I use Firefox occasionally. Googling SQLITE shows it seems to be Firefox related.
john bunyan Thanks I use IE9 and Tracking Protection was disabled so have enabled.
I deleted all 66 SQLITE tracking threats shown on Superantispyware and restarting the computer would not open any websites on any browser. I did a system restore but this did not work. I tried safemode with networking but just shutdowm and started normally but still came up with diagnose connection problem iedll.frame missing.
I did another safe boot/ system repair and system restore and still did not connect to websites. So I shut computer down and did a normal start and all back to normal after an hour of messing about! Will make me wary about using Superantispyware again but accept it could just be coincidental.

Hopefully a coincidence. I have never had problems with SAS. Hope the tracking protection works, do let us know in due course.

PBR Crowd "Treats the Troops" to a night at the rodeo
On Wednesday, January 14th, during the PBR Finals we asked fans to "Treat the Troops" by donating money to send military members and their family's to our Military Appreciation Rodeo performance on January 21.
Due to the overwhelming generosity of the PBR crowd, we were able to raise over $18,000. Thank you to everyone who donated – you helped make last night's rodeo extra special for a lot of people.

Daiei starts year-end sale to rebuild management.
Struggling supermarket chain operator Daiei Inc. started its crucial year-end sale at its 271 stores nationwide on Thursday.
Daiei, which will receive financial support from its three major creditor banks and the government-backed Development Bank of Japan (DBJ), aims to boost sales during the year's biggest sales event.
At its Tsudanuma outlet in Narashino, Chiba Prefecture, Daiei invited baseball team Daiei Hawks' manager Sadaharu Oh and held an event to pray for victory for the baseball team and the department store.
Daiei said it aims to increase its December sales on a same store basis by 2% from a year earlier, while it also seeks to raise sales by 2% in the September-February second half of fiscal 2002.
In October, Daiei's three major creditor banks and the DBJ announced a plan to establish a 60 billion yen fund to support the rehabilitation efforts of the financially troubled company.
The DBJ will invest 10 billion yen in the fund and the three creditor banks -- UFJ Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp. and Mizuho Corporate Bank -- will contribute the remaining 50 billion, they said.
The huge sales event will end on Dec. 25.

After several years of use and cleaning the small "nubs" that held the locking peice on the assembly under the jet arm had worn off. This allowed the whole thing to spin and the dishes weren't getting clean. Finding the part on the site was easy, it arrived amazingly fast and all is up and working great. I have used Parts Select 2 or 3 times in the past and have always had the same great results. Saved me a bunch in repair bills. Thanks

From the Publisher"Overall, this book would be a useful addition to the libraries of medical students, graduate students in pharmacology and toxicology, and natural products scientists. Furthermore, because of its "multidisciplinary evidence-based approach", the book presents an easy-to-follow and valuable resource for clinical toxicologists and analytical chemists, as well as those involved in the regulation of toxic substance exposure. It is a superb resource for a natural products clinical toxicology course." (Journal of Natural Products, 17 August 2011)
"[The book] provides in-depth, evidence based coverage of the most important natural toxins found in foods, fungi, medicinal herbs, plants and venimous animals." (Food Science and Technology Abstracts, July 2010)"This wonderful book covers an enormous subject with attention to detail and direct clinical relevance in a style that is surprisingly easy to read. The remaining volumes will be eagerly awaited by clinical toxicologists everywhere." (The Medical Journal of Australia, January 2010)
"This text provides a comprehensive guide to the medical toxicology of natural substances and is considered an excellent reference for forensic scientists including pathologists, toxicologists, criminalists, and scene investigators." (Journal of Forensic Science, September 2009)
"Entries vary from single species to large groups; hence coverage is quite variable, though always informative. This volume will be useful for researchers and clinicians." (CHOICE, October 2009)
"Medical Toxicology of Natural Substances provides a reliable and easily accessible source on what is known about this topic." (JAMA, July 2009)
"It should be a part of the library any scientist who deal wit natural products research, as well as toxicologists and pharmacologists. It should be a principle reference for poison control centers." (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, published online March 26, 2009)

Wikimedia user group creation guide
This is an easy-to-read introduction into the process of creating a Wikimedia user group. It is designed to help you decide if becoming a Wikimedia user group is right for your group, and prepare for a quick approval process.
Quick links
- Main page: Wikimedia user groups
Wikimedia user groups are intended to be simple and flexible affiliates that are an alternative to chapters and thematic organizations - which require more formal requirements. User groups are highly valued as equal players in the Wikimedia movement. They are meant to empower and engage people around the world to collect and develop educational content under a free license or in the public domain, and to disseminate it effectively and globally.
Recognition from the Affiliations Committee allows a group to apply for using the Wikimedia trademarks and to get certain grants; however, recognition is not required to do any of the work typical user groups do or might do, it is an optional extra step with connected benefits and some requirements.
Recognition from the Affiliations Committee allows a group to apply for using the Wikimedia trademarks and to get certain grants; however, recognition is not required to do any of the work typical user groups do or might do, it is an optional extra step with connected benefits and some requirements.
Benefits of becoming a recognized Wikimedia user group includes:
- Use the Wikimedia logos consistent with the Wikimedia Foundation's Trademark Policy without any additional approval. User groups may use other logos not part of the Trademark Policy (such as the Wikimedia Foundation logo) pursuant to a trademark license with the Wikimedia Foundation and approval by the Wikimedia Foundation legal team.
- Receive large, but limited, quantities of Wikimedia merchandise for use in activities and outreach efforts.
- Public recognition of the group's affiliation with the Wikimedia Foundation.
- Affiliations Committee Liaison support during and after the approval process.
- Apply for Annual Plan Grants after successfully completing two other Wikimedia Foundation grants and meeting other eligibility requirements.
Without recognition, groups may still:
- Engage in group activities to promote, build, and support the Wikimedia movement and its projects.
- Utilize the Wikimedia Community logo.
- Request one-time use of Wikimedia logos consistent with the Wikimedia Foundation's Trademark Policy pursuant to a trademark license with the Wikimedia Foundation and approval by the Wikimedia Foundation legal team.
- Apply for Project & Event Grants, Individual Engagement Grants, and Travel & Participation Support grants.
- Main page: Requirements for Wikimedia user groups
Wikimedia user groups are intended to be simple and flexible affiliates with far fewer requirements than chapters and thematic organizations. Even affiliates hoping to become a chapter or thematic organization are not expected to meet the requirements for those affiliate models to apply for Wikimedia user group recognition.
The requirements to set up an officially recognized Wikimedia user group are meant to be light-weight and easy to follow.
- Three active Wikimedia editors
At least three active Wikimedia project editors in good community standing (meaning they are not currently suspended or otherwise prevented from participating). While user groups should welcome the input of people who are not active contributors to the Wikimedia projects, and are required to allow new members to join, they should not stray too far from the community. An active involvement of contributors to the Wikimedia projects is necessary to enable a user group to bring its real-life initiatives to life in the Wikimedia projects.
- Information published on-wiki
Your groups should have a page on Meta-Wiki or other relevant Wikimedia projects (e.g. Wikipedia) where the public and interested volunteers can learn about who your group is, what your group does, and how to join.
- Clear purpose and scope
Your group should have a clear definition on what your scope and what you would like to do (e.g. "we would like to organize a lecture series on Wikipedia in local schools" or "we would like to start a meetup group in our town").
- Clarity on structure
Simple unincorporated user groups are the preferred form for new Wikimedia user groups and do not require by-laws or other legal formation documents. However, incorporated user groups may exist if it is essential for impact. Only if a legal structure is chosen for the creation of a user group, it should be clearly independent from the Wikimedia Foundation and the by-laws will require Affiliations Committee review.
- Two contact people
Your group should have at least two primary contact people. You should indicate who the contact people are on your wiki page (e.g. with their username). When the user group signs a trademark or grants agreement with the Wikimedia Foundation, the contact people must be ready to provide their contact details and to be identified to the Wikimedia Foundation (for example by providing a copy or a scan of their ID to the Foundation).
Step 1: Gather the people[edit]
At the most fundamental level, user groups are about people – groups that want to contribute to and support Wikimedia projects as a whole in a way involves more than editing alone.
At least three people are required for the establishment of a user group; but we recommend gathering at least 10 in your group.
We highly encourage you to feel empowered to engage in activities and planning even prior to beginning the approval process.
Step 2: Develop your goals and scope[edit]
When you've gathered enough people interested in setting up a user group, start a conversation on your group's exact goals and scope. Try these questions as inspiration:
- What do you want to accomplish as a group? What is your scope? For example, do you want to have a monthly meetup on a particular topic, do you want to reach out to schools, to museums? How does your mission aim to improve Wikimedia projects?
- What kind of activities do you want to engage in (e.g. outreach, fundraising, public relations, publishing, meetups)?
In determining your goals and structure, you may want to contact existing Wikimedia affiliates for advice and inspiration.
Step 3: Select your user group name[edit]
- See also: Affiliates naming guidelines and Affiliates logos best practices
When you set up your pages on the wiki, you'll need to give a name to your user group. A user group's name and logo should support more independent activity and discourage confusion with other Wikimedia organizations. User groups should be allowed to use our logos consistent with our Trademark Policy without any additional approval. User groups may use other logos not part of the Trademark Policy (such as the Wikimedia Foundation logo) pursuant to a trademark license with the WMF and approval by the WMF legal team.
Generally, creative and descriptive names are encouraged; however, here are a few examples that might help your thinking:
- Wikimedia Community User Group _____ : An independent club of Wikimedia volunteers
- Wikimedians of _____ User Group : an independent group of volunteer Wikimedians
- Wikipedians of _____ User Group : an independent group of volunteer Wikimedians
- MediaWiki Group _____ : an independent group of volunteer Wikimedians
- Wikipedia Editors for _____ : an independent group of volunteer Wikimedians
- Any name that does not involve a Wikimedia trademark, such as "Wiki User Group _____"
In all cases the Affiliations Committee is tasked with ensuring that the name matches the four criteria suggested by the WMF's legal department, to protect the movement and the members of the user groups. In case of doubt, please contact the Affiliations Committee if you need help finding a good name.
Step 4: Set up a wiki page for your group[edit]
Once you have a group of interested people, it's time to document who you are and to set up some means of communications. For the external world, you need to designate two contact people who can be identified to the Wikimedia Foundation; within the group, think about setting up a wiki page where people can join; perhaps set up a mailing list or talk page or other forum to discuss your projects.
Step 5: Apply for recognition[edit]
- Main page: Wikimedia user group applications
You are now ready to apply for recognition, keep reading for help on applying for recognition.
- Main page: Wikimedia user group applications
Once you've gathered the group, the wiki page, and the big ideas on what you want to do, visit the Wikimedia user group application page and apply for recognition. AffCom will ask you some questions, review your applications, and if appropriate will submit them to the Wikimedia Foundation to recognize your group as an official Wikimedia User Group. Initial recognition is normally for one year, and is then reviewed. Recognition can be suspended or removed if necessary of if a group becomes inactive.
Delays during the application approval process most often arise from incomplete applications or applications that need to be modified before they can be approved. To prevent this from happening and help expedite your group's approval process, please double check this list before submitting your application:
- Does your name meet the affiliates naming requirements? Group discussions amongst Wikimedia user groups regarding their name can take time, and generally you want to avoid having to re-engage in that conversation after your application has been submitted. You may contact the Affiliations Committee to seek input on your name before submitting your application.
- Does your group have a clear scope and purpose that is consistently and clearly explained? If your Meta page explains your user group in a way that differs from your application, and if those differ from the activities your group is undertaking - that may delay the application's approval as a clear scope and purpose is required for the resolution to approve the user group and the user group agreement which the two primary contacts will be signing with the Wikimedia Foundation. Your scope and purpose statement should clearly and concisely explain what your group hopes to accomplish and who would be interested in joining. We recognize this may evolve over time, but you should have a clear commitment to a specific statement at the time of your application.
- Are your two primary contacts willing to identify themselves with the Wikimedia Foundation? Sometimes privacy concerns might cause someone to change their minds, which can delay the final steps in the user group recognition process.
- Is your group ready to accept new members and already include at least three Wikimedia editors in good standing? Groups which have a closed or limited membership model may require more discussion and review. Groups which do not have at least three active members who are also active Wikimedia editors in good standing will not be approved.
You can now focus on your day-to-day business and promote Wikimedia projects according to your mission. In the coming days, you will be put in contact with Wikimedia Legal and asked to sign the Wikimedia user group agreement. While you are required to sign this agreement, you do not need to wait until the agreement is signed to continue planning and implementing activities and ideas.
If you want some hints about possible projects, you can always look at what other organizations have accomplished or are currently doing.
Remember, you can always ask the Affiliations Committee as well as other affiliates for help, and it's possible for Wikimedia user groups to apply to the Foundation for grants. On the other hand, we would also like to hear from time to time about your activities; you can publish public reports or contact your Affiliate Liaison.
Good luck!
