If you replace the Prestige Pro's leather grip with a synthetic grip you could significantly alter the balance and feel, so I'd recommend caution. A Head leather grip weighs ~23g, while synthetic grips typically weigh ~15g, and an 8 gram difference in the handle is pretty significant! I have read, though, that the Gamma Hi-Tech Perforated is one of the heaviest synthetics, so if you want to go synthetic you could try it. (There's a thread in the sticky in the "Other Equipment" section on leather vs sythetic grip weight, where a bunch of the weights of grips are listed.) As for the Babolat Skin Feel, it's probably the thinnest grip out there, and basically brings you down a grip size; moreover it's extremely light and so would significantly alter the balance.--That said, if I really liked the feel and balance of the racquet but struggled with the leather, I'd probably just invest some extra money to get a Fairway or RPNY or Priority 1 leather grip, which would be much softer.

It's Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and I refuse to believe it is your favorite book... :(
By Lady Humungus on Bloodfeast: Scary White People Tacos
Hah - I've always called these "Mom-style tacos". My mom whips up that Ortega taco dinner kit, with MILD salsa. It's the most exotic recipe in her repertoire, other than "chicken cacciatore", which for her consists of boneless chicken breasts over spaghetti with a jar of Prego dumped on top.

Every time we have tacos at the folks house, my dad tries to tell us how much easier everything would be if we had a lazy susan. #whitepeopletacos
My boyfriends likes to put salsa and melted velveeta into a bag of doritos. #whitepeopletacos
I ordered veggie fajita tacos in Iowa once. The veggies were the freezer bag vegetable medley--peas, carrots, corn. #whitepeopletacos
By LilyB on Not That Kind of Death: An Interview With Caitlin Doughty
@LilyB Wait, actually, I think the casket WAS open, because I seem to remember the comment being made that Grandma looked good, better than she did in her last few weeks alive, and Auntie wanted to remember her this way, looking peaceful.
By Anne on Not That Kind of Death: An Interview With Caitlin Doughty
My family can do whatever they want with my body. I'll be dead. We're a donate-the-organs and cremate-the-body type of family, and I'm cool with that.
The best was after my grandfather passed, we held on to his ashes forever--waiting to family to be in town, waiting for the ice to thaw, waiting for everything, essentially, to line up in order to scatter his ashes. When the day finally came, we were out on the boat and said some nice things. My uncle opened the cardboard box and *PLOP* dropped this shrink-wrapped dust stone into the water. It bobbed away and we shrugged our shoulders. Close enough.
By Jaya on Not That Kind of Death: An Interview With Caitlin Doughty
I think one of the main fears of zombies (and possibly of dead bodies) is that separation between body and self. That this could be the body of your sister or your husband or your child, and yet not them, because they are lifeless or lunging toward you to eat your brains. Either way it's familiar and unfamiliar.
And I definitely want either natural burial, sky burial, or that thing where you're left in a field and scientists get to study how the body decomposes.
By tofuswalkman on "You Win, Or You Die": On the Women of Game of Thrones
@rathermarvelous frankly i found your comment more interesting than the original essay, which seems to barely scratch the obvious surface of this pretty involved topic.
interesting how, as you say, cersei internalizes, embodies, and yet despises the patriarchy of westeros. although she doesn't identify as male, she wants to act as male, literally reenacting things men around her have done. i'm thinking of the scene where she seduces a woman just as robert would have, becoming a reincarnation of him just as she has before with her drinking, getting fat, having affairs, etc. there's a lot more to say about this!

By Danzig! on Talking to Anne Helen Petersen About Leaving Academia for BuzzFeed
@katherine There are a lot of good reasons to excoriate Buzzfeed (taking on a "no haters" editorial policy when deontological journalistic ethics are already shitty enough is what gets me personally) but yeah, none of them are espoused in that OP. Luckily we can ignore it!
I mean, good for AHP. She's a good writer and I hope that Buzzfeed proves worthy of her. There are no jobs that people can be too good to do, only employers that can be unworthy of their staff. Shame on them, tho, that they couldn't invent an editorial position for her. They've got a fucking billion, what's one more?

Now in her 30s, very little is known about Sarah Rowland Doroff's life. She has not acted since the 1990s and has disappeared from celebrity life. Sarah Rowland Doroff is most remembered for her role in the 1989 film "Three Fugitives" in which she played Meg Perry.
Sarah played roles in two TV series in the early 1990s. She appeared in one episode of "Law and Order" where she played Didi Lowenstein and also had an unnamed role in an episode of the TV show "H.E.L.P."
Since then, she has disappeared from the acting world, and very little is known about her adult life.
My name is LIZ FORSMARK.I was a good friend of Dave Rowland, and have lost contact with him. If anyone knows where he is.please let me know or ask him to contact me.email. minniemouse2461
She was born in Sandpoint Idaho, she moved to Alaska when she was 3. She went
The last I heard was that she is in america. She makes personal appearances an gets some royalties from books that she has had published. The other part of your question isn't worth

I've been on this board for a little while now and I have figured out a few of the acronyms/abbreviations used, but I'm still struggling with some of them. Would someone kindly let me know what some of the acronyms they use to describe their pregnancies and babies mean?
My own baby was born via c-section because of decreased fetal movement. There was nothing wrong with the placenta. It really was a healthy pregnancy. But, I just noticed over the weekend before he was born that he wasn't moving like he had been. He was only on a vent for 6 hours and by day 5 he was off of the cannula and breathing room air. Our stay in the NICU was 23 days and after his liver and kidney function got back on track, he was really just needing to feed and grow.
So, I feel that our stay in the NICU pales in comparison to what some of you other ladies have experienced. But that also means I have no idea what ROP is or PROM or...of course I can't think of any other terms I've seen, but you get the idea, right?
I know in some of the birth club boards they have a sticky/reference to all of the lovely acronyms used on these boards...would it be possible to come up with one for the preemie board? Thoughts?

Delafield, Wis. ( Stockpickr) -- Trading stocks that trigger major breakouts can lead to massive profits. Once a stock trends to a new high, or takes out a prior overhead resistance point, then it's free to find new buyers and momentum players that can ultimately push the stock significantly higher.
Breakout candidates are something that I tweet about on a daily basis. I frequently tweet out high-probability setups, breakout plays and stocks that are acting technically bullish. These are the stocks that often go on to make monster moves to the upside. What's great about breakout trading is that you focus on trend, price and volume. You don't have to concern yourself with anything else. The charts do all the talking.
Trading breakouts is not a new game on Wall Street. This strategy has been mastered by legendary traders such as William O'Neal, Stan Weinstein and Nicolas Darvas. These pros know that once a stock starts to break out above past resistance levels, and hold above those breakout prices, then it can easily trend significantly higher.
With that in mind, here's a look at five stocks that are setting up to break out and trade higher from current levels.Youku Tudou One name that's starting to move within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade is Youku Tudou ( YOKU), which is an Internet television company in China. This stock is off to a decent start in 2013, with shares up just over 19%. If you take a look at the chart for Youku Tudou, you'll notice that this stock is spiking higher today right above its 50-day moving average of $19.80 with heavy upside volume. At last check, over 2.44 million shares have traded for YOKU, which is well above its three-month average volume of 1.85 million shares. This stock has also started to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $20.58 to $20.95 a share. That move is quickly pushing the stock within range of triggering another major breakout trade. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in YOKU if it manages to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $21.79 to $22.60 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 1.85 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then YOKU will set up to re-test or possibly take out its 52-week high at $25.24 a share. Any high-volume move above that level will then give YOKU a chance to tag $30 to $33 a share.

WILBERFORCE — For the first time in 40 years, Central State University hosted a Baccalaureate Ceremony for the graduating seniors.
Held on April 8, the Baccalaureate ceremony is a Christian-based interdenominational service that celebrates the senior class graduating from a high school or college. Although it is not known why this ceremony was stopped 40 years ago, the 2014 graduating class requested to the ceremony's return.
The Honorable Marsha Bayless, mayor of Xenia and 1973 CSU alumna; Dr. Leah Gaskin Fitchue, president of Payne Theological Seminary, and Dr. Cynthia Jackson-Hammond, president of Central State University were the speakers.
Bayless announced that the Xenia City Council would be voting to approve the 2015 Budget Priority that includes pursuing ways to work with the university to lift up the eastern area of Xenia through various measures including neighborhood development, transportation enhancements and service integration.
"The plan will seek cross-marketing opportunities, specifically with Central State and other area institutions, and create an internship program offering experience to local undergraduates, while utilizing their talents," Bayless said. "Great strides have already been made (with the partnership) and can be seen on campus with curb painting, filling of potholes and allowing our Xenia youth football team to hold their games right here on campus, to name a few.
Bayless added, "We want to see this neighbor-to-neighbor relationship continue and we know that with the leadership of President Jackson-Hammond, it will happen. I am very happy to be a part of this bridge-building effort and look forward to what is yet to come that will continue to grow the city and grow this institution, my institution, Central State University."
Fitchue challenged the students to use their skills, gifts and talents to do works for others. Using the university's tenets, service…protocol…civility, Fitchue defined her "truths" about each tenet for the students.
"Service means that you are being uniquely equipped to make a major difference in the world," she said. "You were born for greatness. Protocol represents truly learned persons who are expected to value common sense. What you have accomplished, you did not do it by yourself. What you will accomplish, you will not do it by yourself. Practice humility. Civility means to operate with discipline. You are stronger than you were when you entered CSU, but you are not as strong as you are going to be. Life is not about getting over; it is about getting through. This is what success feels like and I always hope you have a hunger for this feeling."

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
While Momma's Man is not autobiographical (Ken and Azazel talk more than the father and son depicted in the film), Azazel was, ironically, struck with Bell's palsy during post-production. "In terms of parallels with the film, it's freaky," he admits. The paralyzing disease gripped him right after telling his girlfriend (The GoodTimesKid's Sara Diaz) that he was going to stay in New York to edit the film: "The next thing I know, I'm waking up and half my face is frozen." He went to an acupuncturist three days a week, but the palsy lasted four months. It wasn't until the film neared completion that it finally lifted and he was able to return to L.A.
After leaving Yuen Yuen, father and son walk down Bayard Street back toward the Jacobs' loft. Ken stops to buy a bag of lychee fruit, and the two reminisce about the city's transformations over the years, from Ken's early memories of "horses delivering milk on the cobblestones" to the time Azazel was caught in the middle of an Asian gang fight at the Chinese Ice Cream Factory. (Azazel's currently writing a gangster flick.)
"Nothing is sacred in this city; everything changes, and I know our place"— referring to his parents' apartment, which is a rental—"won't be mine to go to," says Azazel. "In an odd way, I wanted the film to disconnect me from it: to allow us to own it without buying it, to be a way of letting it go, to remind myself that it's not the physical location, it's not the square feet—it's only what was done with it."

For staff and board members at member boards of nursing only. Sign in with your authorized user ID issued by your board of nursing.
Note: Membership to NCSBN is not open to individuals.
One license – 24 states and counting…
The Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) allows nurses to have one multistate license, with the ability to practice in both their home state and other compact states.
In 2000, NCBSN launched an initiative to expand the mobility of nurses as part of our nation's health care delivery system.
Pending Legislation | Implementation Dates | Download Map
Physically and/or electronically - through a streamlined process without additional applications or fees!
…and are still protected through effective enforcement of licensure laws across state boundaries.
You can obtain a compact (multistate) license if you…
You must apply for licensure by endorsement in the new state of residency. Your individual state license issued by the noncompact state is not affected and will remain active if you maintain licensure and if so provided by the laws of the nonparty state.
You must apply for licensure by endorsement in the new state of residency. Your compact license is changed to a single-state license valid only in that state. You must notify the board of nursing (BON) that you have moved out of state.
You can practice on the former residency license for up to 30 or 90 days (states are individually implementing the 90 day rule). You will be required to:
You will be issued a new multistate license and the former is inactivated. You must notify the BON in the former residency state that you have moved out of state. Proof of residency may be required.
Mary is a licensed RN who has primary residence in Colorado. However, she lives near the four corners (Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado). Since all of these states are participants, through the compact Mary can drive across these borders to practice, or practice electronically, without additional applications or fees.
Mary decides later to move and change her primary residence to New Mexico. She now has a 30-day grace period to practice on the same license. By the end of the 30 days, Mary will need to have received her new multistate license. Mary would be wise to apply in advance of the move.
If you are on a visa from another country applying for licensure in a party state you may declare either the country of origin or the party state as the primary state of residency. If the foreign country is declared the primary state of residency, a single-state license will be issued by the party state.
Learn the difference between single state and multistate licensure.

Martha Stewart; Daniel Boulud; Repurposing Wasted Food; Please Explain
Friday, October 18, 2013
Martha Stewart returns to Food Fridays! She'll be here to talk about cakes and why she's only just starting to love her Bundt pans. Chef Daniel Boulud shares recipes from his new cookbook, named after his flagship restaurant, Daniel. Former Trader Joe's President Doug Rauch describes his new project to help feed poor communities by selling deeply discounted food that may be past its official sell-by date, but is still safe to eat. And this week's Please Explain is about the long, rich history of wine!
Martha Stewart Takes the Cake
Martha Stewart talks about her first cookbook of cakes and why she's only just starting to love her Bundt pans. She gives us her golden rules for baking cakes and shares two recipes - New York style crumb cake and "tender lemon" cake.
Chef Daniel Boulud
Chef Daniel Boulud talks about his coming of age as a young chef to adapting French cuisine to American ingredients and tastes, and how he expresses his culinary artistry at Restaurant Daniel. His new, definitive cookbook, Daniel: My French Cuisine, includes more than 75 signature recipes, plus an additional 12 recipes Boulud prepares at home for his friends on more casual occasions.
Turning Food Past Its Sell-By Date into Healthy, Low-Cost Meals
Doug Rauch, former president of Trader Joe's, talks about food insecurity, food waste, and his new project, The Daily Table. Rauch plans to open a restaurant/grocery store that will sell prepared food, fruits and vegetables that are past their sell-by dates yet are still fresh and safe to eat. He wants to use some of the grocery industry's estimated $47 million of wasted food each year to help feed low-income communities.
Please Explain: Wine
Humans have been drinking wine for 8,000 years. On this week's Please Explain Paul Lukacs tells us all about wine and its long, rich history. He's the author of Inventing Wine: A New History of One of the World's Most Ancient Pleasures.
Guest Picks: Daniel Boulud
Chef Daniel Boulud was recently on the Leonard Lopate Show to talk about his gorgeous new cookbook, Daniel. He shared with us a few of the things he likes to do when he's not in the kitchen, including his love of fast cars!

HI folks, I'm still pretty new at this, so maybe I don't say it all correctly. I made a grayscale hieght map from NASA topographic data and imported it into Carrara as a terrain. But the dataset is so huge it brought my computer to its knees.So instead, I first pulled up PhotosShop and made a normal map from the high-res satellite grayscale data.. Nvidia's PhotoShop plugin for making normal maps went into lala land, so I installed xnormal, which worked a little clumsily, but it worked.
Then I exported the terrain from Carrara as an .obj file and mported it back in as a vertex object. I opened the vertex mesh in the Carrara editor. I decimated it and untrangulated it very carefully, as each mouse click took at least 10 mminutes. Finally I got the mesh down to a reasonable size, so now I have a lo-res mesh from the same data, and it's really smooth:)
So then I imported the normal map I'd made in Photoshop from the high res data and put it on the low-res mesh as a bump map. Now the low-res mesh has high-res detail. BUT it''s overemphasized and jagged. What I need to do is 'subtract' the low-res terrain from the high-res terrain and make a normal map from 'height difference.' This must be something other folks do for other data, and itg should be easier with a terrain mesh, which at least has a flat bottom and exactly the same bottom corners.
Is ther a way to subtract one mesh from another and get the difference data in Carrrara?

CHICAGO, IL (July 23, 2009) Amidst a flurry of fight week media activities, two-time heavyweight world title challenger FAST Fres Oquendo has wrapped up training in his hometown of Chicago just days away from his showdown against former world champion Bruce THE ATLANTIC CITY EXPRESS Seldon set for this Friday night, July 24th at Chicagos UIC Pavilion.
The Oquendo/Seldon ten round main event for the NABA Heavyweight Title headlines WINDY CITY FIGHT NIGHT 4, a seven bout card of world class professional boxing presented by Dominic Pesolis 8 Count Productions, HOME OF THE BEST IN CHICAGO BOXING.
Oquendo has been training for the last three months at Chicago s JABB Boxing Gym.Fres has been training here every afternoon after he runs in the morning. Ive had a chance to watch him spar and he looks very sharp said Pesoli, co-owner of JABB.
Born in Puerto Rico, Oquendo has called Chicago home since he was a small child. He recently signed a management deal with Simmons Entertainment Marketing LLC, headed by NBA Star and fellow Chicagoan Bobby Simmons. Simmons, currently playing for the New Jersey Nets, starred at De Paul University and Simeon High School before entering the NBA.
Ive seen Fres training for the last few weeks, hes really peaking right now. Hes definitely put the work in ahead of this fight with Seldon and the fans should see a great
performance on Friday night said Simmons.
The co-main event at WINDY CITY FIGHT NIGHT 4 features an outstanding lightweight battle between Chicagoans Gadiel Andaluz and Oscar De La Cruz.
Puerto Rican native Andaluz brings a record of 3-1-0 (2KOs) into the scheduled five rounder against the Mexican born De La Cruz, 5-6-0 (2KOs).
Born and raised in Puerto Rico, the 26 year old Andaluz won his first three professional bouts in Chicago in 2008 before suffering a setback against Dannie Williams in Tacoma , Washington .
In his last Chicago bout on May 9, 2008, Andaluz thrilled the crowd at Cicero Stadium taking a four round decision over unbeaten Jose Mandujano of Detroit, a bout in which Andaluz controlled the action from the opening bell.
A native of Mexico City, De La Cruz brings a record of 5-6-0 (2KOs), into the bout with Andaluz. In the last four years he has battled numerous outstanding young prospects including Matt Remillard, Mike Oliver and Argenis Mendez.
Also featured on the undercard at WINDY CITY FIGHT NIGHT 4 is the return of highly regarded Chicago based super featherweight prospect Noe Perez, 2-0-0 (2KOs) who will face Diamond Baier, 0-0-1, of Phoenix, Arizona, in a four round bout..
Also returning to action at the UIC Pavilion is Chicago based newcomer Mike Kurzeja, 1-0-0 (1KO) who will see action against Minnesota veteran Nick Whiting in a four round super middleweight bout.
Making his pro debut at WINDY CITY FIGHT NIGHT 4 is David Latoria of Chicago. Following his amateur success as the 2009 Chicago Golden Gloves Champion, Latoria will face Orlando, Floridas Christopher Boykins in a scheduled four rounder.
Also making his professional boxing debut is former UFC Star, Nate Mohr of Crystal Lake, Illinois. Amassing an MMA record of 9-7-0 with six stoppages, the 26 year old Mohr will face Pine Bluff, Arkansas native Tommy Moore, 0-1-0, in a four round junior middleweight bout.

Falcons GM Tom Dimitroff and the rest of the Falcons aren't going to let Tony Gonzalez walk without a fight. "A guy who is 36 catching 100-plus balls (including the postseason), it just doesn't seem like it's time for him to move on," Dimitroff said while visiting the Super Bowl media center, via Pat Yasinskas of ESPN. Dimitroff is also has let Tony know his feelings. "I definitely already have," he said. Gonzalez looks to still be in top shape for his age and would open up a hole in the Falcons offense if he goes, something tha'st not lost of the Falcons organzation. He said several times late in the season that there was 95% chance of him retiring, so hope is still alive in Atlanta. Tony's a man and he's got to make his own decision," Dimitroff said. "Suffice it to say that it's not going to be an easy decision for him one way or another because he knows that he still has fuel in the tank and it's very legitimate fuel in the tank."

News Release
Birmingham, AL -- Even though floods are the most common natural disaster people face, many more should consider purchasing flood insurance to protect against potential losses, federal officials said today. "One incentive for many people occurs after a flood when they discover that homeowners' insurance policies do not cover flood damage," said Perry Martin, of the Alabama Emergency Management Agency (AEMA), state coordinating officer for the disaster recovery.
May 27, 2003
News Release
Birmingham, AL -- Some Alabamians may not yet be eligible for available FEMA aid because of confusion regarding inspectors who check on damages, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) officials reported today. Gracia Szczech, federal coordinating officer for FEMA, said there have been reports that a number of residents believed they were in the FEMA system for aid eligibility because a county inspector had viewed damages on their property.
May 26, 2003
News Release
Birmingham, AL -- If your well or septic tank was damaged by flooding, you may be eligible for federal disaster assistance to restore it to use, federal officials said today. Residents of 38 counties covered by President Bush's May 12 disaster declaration for Alabama can call the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) toll-free registration line -- 1-800-621-FEMA (3362) -- to find out what help is available. The number for speech- and hearing-impaired applicants is TTY 1-800-462-7585.
May 23, 2003
News Release
Birmingham, AL -- More than $6 million in disaster recovery grants and disaster loans has been approved for Alabamians who suffered losses because of the severe storms, tornadoes and flooding this month, according to figures from the Alabama Emergency Management Agency (AEMA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Federal, state, local and voluntary agencies are working in partnership to help Alabamians recover from the disaster declared May 12 by President Bush. This is an update of recovery activities as of close of business May 22.
May 23, 2003
News Release
Birmingham, AL -- Residents of Baldwin, Clarke, Escambia, Mobile, Monroe and Washington counties today became eligible to apply for federal disaster assistance for losses suffered as a result of this month's severe storms, tornadoes and flooding. Gracia Szczech, of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and federal coordinating officer for the Alabama disaster recovery, said the six counties were added to the list of eligible jurisdictions based on a continuing assessment of damage data gathered by federal and state disaster recovery officials.

HOUSTON (ICIS)--US-based Quinpario Acquisition raised $172.5m (€129.4m) from its initial public offering, and it will focus on acquiring companies valued at up to $1bn, the company said on Wednesday.
Those acquisition targets will be in the specialty-chemicals and performance-materials sectors, said Jeffry Quinn, CEO of the company.
Quinn was the former head of Solutia before it was acquired by Eastman Chemical.
His firm waged a proxy battle with Ferro, and Quinn now sits on that company's board, along with David Lorber, a co-founder of FrontFour Capital Group.

Johan Santana may pitch out of the Orioles' bullpen
Mar 4, 2014, 8:30 AM EDT
Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports that Johan Santana could be used as a reliever by the Orioles once he's able to pitch.
Kubatko reported yesterday that the Orioles "have an agreement in place" with Santana on a minor league deal. Given the sort of deal it was and given how late it was reached, Santana is clearly in the beggars can't be choosers camp. So even if he'd prefer to start, he'll likely do whatever the O's tell him if he wants to continue his major league career.
- scoutsaysweitersisabust - Mar 4, 2014 at 8:53 AM
There is zero downside to this deal on the Orioles side. He can stay in the minors for as long as needed, and if he gets his form back, he could potentially be a nice addition for the O's. If not, they can cut him and no harm, no foul. I'm not really sure why so many criticized this move when it was first announced. The way the Orioles use their AAA team, it's not like he's even taking time from some developing player, as most of their young talent gets promoted direct from AA.
- gethimgethim - Mar 4, 2014 at 4:48 PM
While the deal doesn't cost anything, zero downside implies you're expecting at least something out of it. He's throwing 77 m.p.h. Out of the pen. If that doesn't change, the downside is that the O's wasted their money. Doesn't matter if it's league minimum or $1 mil with incentives; it'll be a waste.
- scoutsaysweitersisabust - Mar 4, 2014 at 9:10 PM
No, zero downside means that you have nothing to lose. It very well may be a waste. It may end up being a decent move. You don't very well know. It is worth the small salary they are spending on a guy who may end up surprising people. And if not, no harm done.
- rockthered1286 - Mar 4, 2014 at 8:54 AM
Yeesh… I mean, I get it. The rotation right now looks like Tillman (lock), Jimenez (lock), Chen (lock) and 2 of the 3 between Norris/Gausman/Gonzalez. You also have a chance to see Yoon if he pitches well, Britton who is out of options, Matusz who is aiming for the final spot… it's a crowded position for the O's.
And then we can look at the pen. You have Hunter as your closer and O'Day as his set up. Beyond that I think you will see Matusz, Britton, Webb, Yoon, possibly Stinson, maybe Steve Johnson, and TJ McFarland. Starting to get crowded in there as well. I understand some guys will be up and down like Stinson and Johnson (possibly Yoon too), but guys like Britton are out of options and others cannot be sent down to the minors either. Barring injury to the rotation, I don't see where Santana can fit, and even then he would be moved to the pen and you'd see Britton or Matusz fill the SP void.
Who ever thought I'd be saying the O's have too much pitching depth… Not that it's a bad thing!
- xdj511 - Mar 4, 2014 at 9:00 AM
I can't believe Johan wants to keep playing badly enough that he'd put himself into a situation where the best he could hope for was turning into Oliver Perez.
- karlkolchak - Mar 4, 2014 at 9:56 AM
If he turns into Oliver Perez, he'll still command a seven figurge salary.
Jim Kaat became a middle reliever late in his career and pitched 'till he was 44. Anything to keep suiting up and getting paid.
- chill1184 - Mar 4, 2014 at 11:05 AM
If there is a deal in place, good luck with the O's Johan.

DEER PARK, Texas Police took a 15-year-old high school student into custody for threats made on Twitter against other students, Deer Park ISD officials said Thursday.
In one tweet, the student claimed he would bring a gun to school and kill others out of retaliation, but police said a thorough investigation revealed the student did not have the means to carry out any attack.
Another tweet said the student had been bullied for 5 years. Screen grabs of the tweet spread like wildfire and soon after, administrators got involved.
The tweets came from a twitter handle @gorgeousgirlsof. The account had a picture of a female student at Deer Park High, but she was not the one who posted the messages.
Investigators were able to track down the real poster by working with Twitter. KHOU s Social Media/Digital Content Producer Doug Delony explained how the social networking site works with police.
Once they verified there s an actual threat, they will track that IP address from that particular handle, and then hand that over to law enforcement, Delony said.
The IP address is like a phone number once officers have that they can get a physical address and that s how they made the arrest.
The parents (of the suspect) were very cooperative, obviously surprised to see a couple of detectives show up at their door, Deer Park Police Lt. Earl Morrison said. He admitted to the detectives he created a false account, he used different photos of several different girls to get people to respond to him.
Despite the arrest, the threat caused a lot of fear at the school. The threats had plenty of students on edge and, at first, confused.
We didn t even know where it was at. They were telling us north campus, told me south campus, they told me it was a girl, it was a guy. I didn t know what to expect, said Asia Lewis, a student.
And it s extremely scary to think that someone wants to bring a gun to school and shoot other students because of bullying, said Joseph Gray, another student.
Kellie Mclemore, a parent, expressed relief, adding that she almost kept her child at home.
If they hadn t found him, yeah, yeah, yeah. I would have, Mclemore said.
But the threat turned out to be nothing. Police say the 15-year-old did not have a plan or weapons, and that he acted alone.
Now, the student s future is uncertain. Most likely, he will never be allowed on that campus again.
In most cases, when you have a student who makes a threat, that student ends up being reassigned to like a disciplinary campus, said Matt Lucas, Deer Park ISD.
Statement from the school:
At about 9:15 p.m. last night, a Deer Park High School-North Campus student made a threat on Twitter using an anonymous account. He threatened to bring a gun to school and shoot others who had bullied him. Deer Park Police have arrested the student and are absolutely confident that he was alone in making the threat. As a precaution, security has been increased at North Campus today.
Although no specific school or student was mentioned in the threat, a photo of a female North Campus student was included in the threatening message. The threat quickly drew the attention of the District as well as students, parents, and others who reported it to the authorities.
The Deer Park Police Department responded with great speed and diligence, conducting a detailed investigation involving Twitter officials as well as other organizations that resulted in the arrest of the student who made the threat. He is a ninth-grade male, and his parents are cooperating with the authorities.
Police are confident that the student acted alone and believe that he had no plan, no access to weapons, and simply made a spontaneous threat.
The student was arrested at about 4 a.m. this morning and will not be at school.
We will share more information about this situation as it becomes available.
District officials said attendance was down by more than 20 percent. The suspect remains in custody at a juvenile detention facility.

Achieving Perfect Skin Tones and Color Using Capture One
You have probably heard it a few times: photographers raving about how Capture One is awesome for developing portraits from raw files. However, just like when I first installed it, you might not see any advantage over the current raw processor you are using. Then I found a few functionalities that made my workflow that much quicker and my images look a tad better before even retouching them in Photoshop.

When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother's whereabouts, she has no choice but to trust him, though he clearly has a few dark secrets of his own.

Actually I don't need to check file compatibility with my Illustrator but I'd like to ask if anyone know if there is somewhere a list of functions (in my case I'd like to find Illustrator) that were added to particular version of Illustrator.
For example transparent gradient were added in CS4. Is there a list of function that showing which function was added to which version of software?
Thank you in advance!
I would also like to know if there's a tool to figure this out. Would be very useful.

Anise is native to the Mediterranean region, particularly Egypt, Greece, and Asia Minor. It spread to Tuscany under Roman cultivation and then into central Europe during the Middle Ages, also under cultivation. By the mid sixteenth century it was being cultivated as far north as England. It is no longer known from any truly wild habitats and is now cultivated throughout the world, notably India and South America.

ALUMNI REPORT: While enjoying success at Maryland, Yeatman has eyes on NFL
Will Yeatman's days of speaking softly and carrying a big stick as a lacrosse player are probably over.
Now, the 6-foot-6, 272-pound Yeatman is trying to make some noise as a college football player.
The former Rancho Bernardo High star began his college career as a two-sport athlete at Notre Dame. But after some off-the-field troubles, including misdemeanor alcohol charges, he transferred to Maryland.
"I was young and I screwed up," Yeatman said. "But I've learned from my mistakes, and I'm a better person now."
He's also a bigger and better player.
As a senior lacrosse player last spring, he had a hat trick against Georgetown and two goals against both Duke and Cornell. He was named to the U.S. national team tryout pool.
But with his size and speed, Yeatman has the potential to play football on Sundays.
NFLDraftscout.com rates him as the 30th best college tight end out of 85 who were evaluated.
"I can't imagine a guy with Will's size and speed with a stick in his hand," said Maryland tight ends coach Charles Bankins.
"He was more of a lacrosse guy when we got him, but he has done a great job picking up our system. He has tremendous hands, soft hands and great hand-eye coordination, probably from catching a lacrosse ball. And he can run all day.
"He has a lot of upside, and NFL scouts see that. But he was injured the first week of practice, missed a lot of time and is still a little behind."
Yeatman broke his right thumb last spring playing lacrosse, an injury that required surgery. But he was back in 10 days.
Then he fractured his left index finger just days into the start of fall football practice. The finger wasn't just broken. The injury required surgery. Three pins were inserted and the hand was wrapped in what amounted to a club.
"I leaned back for an underthrown ball, fell, guys landed on me, and the next thing I knew the finger was crooked," Yeatman said.
He missed six weeks, and while he only tapes the hand now, Bankins said the finger still limits Yeatman.
Yeatman plays about half the offensive plays for the Terps, who are 7-3 and have a first-place Atlantic Coast Conference showdown with Florida State on Saturday.
He has three catches for 41 yards. He has played in eight games, starting two.
"Football is absolutely my focus now," Yeatman said. "I enjoy being on the field.
"The NFL is the goal. The scouts are intrigued by a big, strong guy with good hands."
Bankins said that while Yeatman is helping the Terps, his time will probably come after the season when NFL scouts come in to watch individual workouts.
"Will could be a tight end, but he'd make one heck of an athletic left tackle, too," Hankins said. "The NFL guys will make that decision."
Yeatman said tight end is his first choice, but if the scouts feel he can be a tackle in the NFL, so be it.

Muskego's motion to dismiss the Parkland Mall lawsuit - which alleges the city, its Community Development Authority and some former officials mishandled development of the commercial property - was denied by Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge Lee Dreyfus Jr. today.
Parkland Venture LLC, which owns the now mostly vacant property occupying about 10 acres on Janesville Road at Lannon Drive, is suing the city for $46 million. Art Dyer is the most visible member of Parkland Venture.
While Dreyfus dismissed some of the claims in the lawsuit last month, the most serious ones remain. They include whether the city and the CDA virtually took the land, said Remzy Bitar, attorney for the city.
Also to be determined are whether the individual defendants have immunity and whether the statute of limitations has run out, Bitar said.
The city now has until Oct. 12 to file a motion for a summary judgment, he said. If that is dismissed, a pretrial hearing will be held Dec. 17. No trial date has been set.

Integrated mixed logit and latent variable models

Extending the traditional discrete choice model by incorporating latent psychological factors can help to better understand the individual's decision-making process and therefore to yield more reliable part-worth estimates and market share predictions. Several integrated choice and latent variable (ICLV) models which merge the conditional logit model with a structural equation model exist in the literature. They assume homogeneity in the part-worths and use latent variables to model the heterogeneity among the respondents. This paper starts from the mixed logit model that describes the heterogeneity in the part-worths and uses the latent variables to decrease the unexplained part of the heterogeneity. The empirical study presented here shows these ICLV models perform very well with respect to model fit and prediction.

I've read in several places, and I agree, that crossing up captains and ships (tacs in cruisers, and engineers in escorts; I have no idea about Science ships...) is an effective strategy that, rather than concentrating all your strengths, makes the ships more effective and versatile in general.
Yes, as already stated, engineers will be more durable in cruisers, and tac captains will be more pew-pew-ey in escorts; but, personally, I prefer a more damaging cruiser and a more durable escort, rather than putting all my eggs in the one basket. I'm still new, but I?m having fun with a tac Galaxy (I know, I know...) and an Engi currently in a Defiant... [Note also, what I say is all PVE. Not a PvPer, myself.]
Neat thing is, with some of the cheaper mirror ships, one can experiment with both options without a ridiculous amount of disruption...

London: Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata has paid tribute to fellow Spaniard David de Gea, who has been voted as the club's Player of the Year by both the fans and the players.
Mata said that with United's disastrous season, the big prize has been for d De Gea and he felt honoured to present it to the goalkeeper after both fans and players vote him as United's Player of the Year.
According to the Mirror, the Spaniard, who joined United from Chelsea for a record signing of 37.1 million pounds, said that it is the first time that the trophy went to the club's goalkeeper and that De Gea deserves a lot of credit for that.
Mata said that his fellow countryman has got amazing qualities and believes that De Gea may become one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
United endured a disastrous season and finished seventh in the Premier League this season, which is the lowest in their league history, and have also missed out entirely on next season's Champions League, the report added.
