The State of the Franchise event for the Toronto Blue Jays is a season ticket holder event. This year the brass at 1 Blue Jays Way extended an invite to the Back in Blue team and a few other Blue Jays bloggers and websites to take part in the nights festivities. As seen in the wrap-up video from 2011, the night may include a chance for fans to ask General Manager Alex Anthopoulos, team President Paul Beeston and head coach John Farrell questions regarding the current 'state of the franchise', a meet and greet session, free food and beverage, team memorabilia and a surprise appearance by Hall of Famer Roberto Alomar. So what did 2012 behold?
To start off BIB Producer Brad James and myself headed toward Toronto early in the afternoon to secure an early arrival and hit up the Real Sports Apparel store and the Jays Shop. I was on a personal mission to get a Team Unit t-shirt to support the efforts of JP Arencibia, Brett Lawrie and others. The drive was smooth and we were at the clothing rack in no time. After a few seconds of deliberation I settled on a shirt with Lawrie 13 across the back and my decision was based solely on the fact that he is Canadian.
From there Brad and I braved the nasty wind and walked down the road to the Jays Shop to take advantage of a 50% discount they were offering. This time the both of us were on a mission to purchase custom jerseys with our number and 'BACKINBLUE' across the back. Fifty percent off later and with the jersey on my back it was finally time to get into the Skydome to see what this thing was all about. We entered and received a pamphlet with a brief review of the past few months and it was off to experience the night freely.
First thing on the list was to shoot an opening segment for the video package so we quickly got that out of the way. Just as quick as we shot the opening we had already met a couple of BIB fans and had a chance to chat. There seemed to be lots of beer, wine and free food flowing to everyone and that's pretty much what filled the time while mingling until the Q&A period.
As the MC for the evening Buck Martinez welcomed us to the event we were greeted by a video package highlighting the change back to the original Blue Jays roots. So what happened during the Q&A period?
Some fans were frustrated, some seemed angry and many were very happy with the current direction of the organization. First off we listened to a fan who displayed both frustration and anger with what seemed like a lack of effort in signing big time free agent Prince Fielder.
Some asked more questions about roster moves, more specifically about the projected batting order and one guy even stood up to declare his love for the Blue Jays while wearing a DETROIT TIGERS shirt. Rightfully so GM Alex Anthopoulos called this man out for his apparel choice which was one of the highlights of the night. The entire Q&A session lasted about an hour and some fans were left disappointed because there was not enough time for everyones questions.
With about an hour left in the night we were hoping to get an interview with someone, anyone really. With this in mind we looked around for AA, Farrell and Beeston but had lost track of where they went. Twitter follower @Bam_86 appeared and he agreed to a quick chat. He gave us his opinion on some of the things that were said and his general opinion of the event while showing the almost $800 worth of Blue Jays gear he had purchased (not including 50% off).
Soon after we found where the media scrum was taking place and gathered around to try and listen in to what was being said. With so many people around it wasn't possible to hear what was going on but we had been told prior to the event that we could possibly receive an interview from one of the 3 men if not all of them.
AA finished with the media and before I realised what was happening I was interviewing the General Manager of a major league baseball team. The following 2 minutes flew by but what a highlight and honour it was to end up having the only exclusive interviews from him and Paul Beeston.
AA declined the option to give himself a letter grade on this past off-season instead choosing to grade himself after the season based on having yet to see the players on the field. He told me what an honour it was for him to be the General Manager for Canada's only MLB franchise and as predicted he answered the BIB 'who were you a fan of' question by saying the Montreal Expos.
Next up was the team President and again we waited around while the media jockeyed for camera position. Before I knew it the light was in my eyes and I was talking to Paul Beeston. I started off by asking him our fan question and he told me how he was a Detroit Tigers fan growing up as he would frequent games with his father, often going to the see the New York Yankees featuring Mickey Mantle. Next I asked him to grade Alex Anthopoulos' performance over this past off-season. Beeston expressed that this is not a quick-fix situation and it needs to be more long-term and must be sustainable. He said he believes his young GM has done a terrific job building a young talented team while creating a good nucleus of players.
I couldn't believe what had just happened! While Brad and I tried to get our senses straight we quickly reviewed all of the audio to make sure I didn't mess it up. After a brief scare we heard what we needed to and the worry was gone, we had just interviewed 2 of our 3 targets.
Unfortunately we missed out on talking to John Farrell as he had quickly retreated to his office upstairs but as far as we were concerned the night was more than a success. We had another chat with @Bam_86 before heading back to the car for a nasty drive home.
My overall impression of the event? I think it is a great thing for fans to be able to go and directly ask questions to team executives while mingling with other season ticket holders. It seemed some were disappointed with the lack of a 'meet and greet' time that I had seen in the previous years video but the 50% off and free food and beverage helped make up for it somewhat. Unfortunately there was no surprise appearance either but is it really a surprise when everyone is expecting someone?
The past two days have been crazy for me as I have moved and been busy since we left the Skydome. I don't think the fact that I received those interviews has quite sunk in. Add to it the fact that I talked to Kelly Gruber on the phone today for 30 minutes and this may just be the craziest week of my life.
Brad and I can't say enough thanks to the Toronto Blue Jays organization, Paul Beeston, Alex Anthopoulos and the people who were involved in setting up the interviews. It was a great night overall and of course one last big thanks has to go out to… @Bam_86.

SAFC Targets Low Single-Digit Growth

Sigma-Aldrich Fine Chemicals (SAFC) is targeting low single-digit growth for 2009, president Gilles Cottier told an audience at a press briefing in New York late last month. SAFC's sales declined 5% in the first quarter to $135.6 million. Cottier: Trimming labor costs. The fine chemical market will be "flat, at best, and probably decline" this year, Cottier says. However, SAFC's booked orders began to rise in February and are now at pre-recession levels, which is an indication that business is starting to pick up, he says. The company is...

Naturally part of looking young is taking good care of your under-eye area. That's why there are so many different products available now days to assist women and men with this process. Since the delicate eye area tends to get puffy, dark, dry and wrinkled as we age, it makes sense to treat it with some sort of topical under eye therapy. This is where Eyederma fits into the picture. This is a "revolutionary new product" that can be acquired through websites like Amazon.com. The listed retail cost of this topical cream is $109 for a one-ounce container.
Not unlike many other under-eye creams, serums and gels, Eyederma is massaged gently under and around the eyes. This product aims to minimize puffiness, dramatically reduce dark circles, revive the tired eye area, smooth out crow's feet and even hydrate to provide a more youthful look. Eyederma cream should be applied to cleansed skin morning and night. The key active components found in this product are Vitamin K (helps minimize puffiness and dark circles), as well as a unique "Ocupeptide-3 technology" (may assist with crow's feet, puffiness, dark circles and dryness). On websites like Amazon.com, there are some reviews posted by past consumers who've used Eyederma.
Product Details
Eyederma is essentially one of countless under-eye treatments that's claimed to do anything from battle crow's feet, to reduce under-eye puffiness, to minimize dark circles, to hydrate the skin. The directions for this treatment state that users should apply this topical treatment before any other moisturizers, serums or creams they use daily. The length of time Eyederma will last depends upon the user. Furthermore, the overall effect this cream has also depends on the user and can vary from person to person. There doesn't appear to be any kind of money-back guarantee provided with Eyederma cream.
A full list of ingredients for this product is as follows: Purified Water, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate (and) PEG-100 Stearate, Ethylhexyl Benzoate, Dimethicone Glycerine Ocupeptide 3TM (Dipeptide-2 Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-3 Palmitoyl Oligopeptide), Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone, Steareth-20, Hydroxysuccimide, Vitamin K Phytonadione, Chrysin Carbomer Polysorbate-20, Methylparaben, and Propylparaben.
The Good
- All of the ingredients offered in Eyederma are clearly listed out on websites like Amazon.com.
- This under eye treatment contains some moisturizers.
The Bad
- In regards to a refund or a money-back guarantee, there doesn't appear to be one offered for Eyederma.
- Some of the ingredients found in this topical treatment may irritate the under-eye area of some users.
- There doesn't appear to be any clinical trials discussed for this under-eye therapy.
- The retail cost of Eyederma is rather high at $109 for a single ounce.
The Bottom Line
If you're new to the skin care market, then you may not have encountered very many under-eye creams, gels and serums. Regardless, you can rest assured that there are many to choose from. Although it's nice to see that all of the ingredients are disclosed for Eyederma, the cost of this product is a tad high at $109, which may discourage some potential users. It's a good idea to check out a number of under-eye therapies prior to spending your money on one.

Watch Naruto Shippuden Episode 277 Online Free Stream English Subbed
Naruto Shippuden Episode 277 got into some serious trouble this week, too. The time came for his big match-up with JD over the position of pack master. Call me crazy, but I just thought they were going to duke it out. Apparently, it's more of a contest. Typically, they hunt some sort of specific animal and the first to capture it wins. This time, though, V-addict JD kidnapped a college track star and planned on using him as the game. Alcide refused to kill an innocent boy, but JD refused to back down from the chase. He went after the kid, anyway. Alcide chased after JD and caught up to him just as he caught the runner. A minor fight broke out, but Martha (Dale Dickey) showed up to break it up. JD won the title and kicked Alcide out of the pack.
Lafayette's (Nelsan Ellis) story seemed to Naruto Shippuden Episode 277 tie up entirely this week. He drove home from Don Bartolo's love shack and envisioned a perfectly fine looking Jesus (Kevin Alejandro) spirit in the passenger seat beside him. A little vampire blood touched up his bleeding lips, and he seemed to make peace with mourning Jesus. I'm glad this is over with. Maybe now, Lafayette can get back to being funny!
That wasn't all for Lafayette this week, though. Arlene (Carrie Preston) and Holly (Lauren Bowles) were waiting at his house when he arrived back in Bon Temps. Their plan, convince Terry (Todd Lowe) and Patrick (Scott Foley) that the Ifrit is a figment of his imagination through a fake seance.
Lafayette: "He off his meds. Ciao, bitches."
Lafayette agreed, but charged $300 this time. He did this all last season for free! Funny Lafayette conducted a faux seance sans candles, but serious Lafayette had to Naruto Shippuden Episode 277 handle the situation once the spirit of the woman Terry killed actually showed up to the party! The candles were unlit, then lit again, then really lit. The woman agreed to break the curse if Terry kills Patrick, or Patrick kills Terry. Prediction: Patrick goes off the deep end, and Terry kills him defending Arlene. Maybe the Ifrit is just like last season's poltergeist. Maybe he just needs a friend!
For the third week in a row, Tara (Rutina Wesley) and Pam (Kristen Bauer van Straten) made a little progress with very little screen time. Basically, a racist blonde from Tara's high school class showed up to Fangtasia because well, we honestly don't know why a racist would want to hang out in a vampire bar. She dropped several racist comments, and Tara snapped. She happily admitted Naruto Shippuden Episode 277 to sleeping with her boyfriend. At first, it seemed as though Pam was defending her patron, but in reality, she was ready to have her tied and gagged in the dungeon below. Her mad face and her happy face are the same. After glamouring her to worship Tara forever, it appears as though the two are officially on good terms.
Eric attempted to reason with his sister, Nora (Lucy Griffiths), by using Godric's plea and memory. Nora called Godric weak in his final days and blasphemous.
Nora: "F*ck Godric."
Not Godric! That got me angry, so imagine how Eric reacted. In the final scenes regarding the Authority, they planned on annihilating the mainstreamers for good. Bill Naruto Shippuden Episode 277 suggested bombing the True Blood factories, much to Eric's surprise. Bill claimed he was "evolving." Oh no, Eric! Text Sookie!
The episode closed with Sookie having a vision of the vampire she inhabited. He's coming for her! Good!
What did you all think of the episode? Who picked up Hoyt at the episode's end? Are you Team Jessica or Team Hoyt? Are you afraid for Sookie or for the vampire killer? Isn't it a little quick for Alcide to have a new girlfriend after admitting his feelings for Sookie? What would Buffy do?
Well, tonight's episode of Naruto Shippuden Episode 277 felt about as scattered as last week's, however "Somebody That I Used to Know" did manage to deliver a number of more entertaining, less draggy scenes than last week's episode, and I think we have a better idea of where things are going for the series on a number of plot-points, most of which seem unrelated to each other.

The Bachelor
All About Bachelor Season 15 Winner Emily Maynard
UPDATE: For the details on Emily Maybard's split with Brad Womack, read our recap of her interview with Chris Harrison.
While Brad Womack was busy apologizing for his very existence, Emily Maynard was busy stealing his first episode of The Bachelor Season 15. And she kept on stealing... all the way to the finale, when Brad got down on one knee and popped the question with a $90,000 rock.
Emily's story about losing the love of her life at age 19 has touched the hearts of just about everybody. Since we're going to be seeing a lot more of the adorable Southern Barbie, let's learn a little more about her:
As she mentioned, she was engaged for about six months to NASCAR Busch Series and Craftsman Truck Series driver Ricky Hendrick, before he died in a plane crash on October 24, 2004. (Watch a slideshow of photos of the adorable couple.)
According to Catchfence, while flying to a race at Martinsville Speedway in Martinsville, Virginia, the plane crashed in the Bull Mountain area after passing through a dense fog. Among the 10 Hendrick Motorsports racing team members who were killed were Ricky's uncle, team president John Hendrick, and his twin daughters, Kimberly and Jennifer Hendrick.
But there was a silver lining to the dark cloud.
"Emily came over to the house the night after the memorial service and told us [Hendrick and his wife, Linda] she was pregnant," Ricky's father, Rick Hendrick, told Scene Daily in 2005. "At the lowest time of our life, it was like a miracle that happened for us because we get a chance to have a piece of Ricky left. I can't describe how happy and how excited we are. We can't wait to see that baby'' eyes. When she told us, it was hard to even believe. It was like God had given us back something. We had lost so much."
Are you crying yet? We thought so. Emily gave birth to cute little Josephine Riddick "Ricki" Hendrick on June 29, 2005.
After giving birth to Ricki, Emily has worked in broadcast journalism as a host of Speed Channel's podcast Emily on the Scene in 2006 and then as host for the behind-the-scenes series Three Wide Life. The 24-year-old West Virginia native is billed on The Bachelor as an event coordinator at a hospital — that would be the Levine Children's Hospital in Charlotte, North Carolina, which includes the Ricky Hendrick Centers for Intensive Care. The pediatric intensive-care facility was named for Ricky after his parents donated $3 million to the hospital.
In terms of Emily's romantic past, she has also been linked to NASCAR driver Dale Earhardt Jr. Starcasm published some emails from Dale Jr. fans, one of which said that Dale and Emily "never officially declared themselves a couple, but did go out together and spend a lot of time with one another in early 2006." Another fan said that since Dale and Ricky were friends, Emily felt comfortable with him because she thought Ricky would approve.
But would Ricky approve of Brad? Since so many people seem to still hate the guy, it's up in the air – and so seems their relationship. Since the finale proposal, there have been more breakup-to-makeup-to-breakup rumors than we can keep up with. Though it hasn't stopped us from trying!
Of course, if Em was to get off the Brad wagon for good, it's not like she'd have much trouble getting a date– one vocal admirer being "Bad News" Bentley Williams from the latest season of The Bachelorette. The villain of Season 7 made it known from the very first episode he had wished the Bachelorette had been Emily and not Em's fellow Season 15 contestant Ashley Hebert. Awkward! No worries, though. He's definitely the kind of guy she knows to stay away from. Check out her first thoughts on the jerkwad who breaks Ashley's heart in a way that makes Frank Neuschaffer seem like Prince Charming:

Title Phytology
Artists Talya Baldwin, Vhils, Ministry of Stories, Siobhan Davies Dance, Tal Brosh, The Nest Collective, Sick Boy
Format Site-Specific Installation
Exhibition dates April 2014 - September 2015
Location Bethnal Green Nature Reserve, Middleton St, Bethnal Green, London E2 9RG
Nomad in association with Cape Farewell and the Teesdale & Hollybush TRA will launch a research base project called Phytology*.
Phytology is an action-research project bringing together artists and botanists to explore the ecology & medicinal properties of wild plants and weeds common to derelict and undeveloped urban sites. The partnership of artists and botanists will seek to create a fresh language in which to challenge perceptions of the value of un-manicured growth, revealing practical biomedical usefulness, and suggesting a wider eco-connectivity.
The project aims to question ideas of value, and in particular the perceived low value of common weeds and plants. It will do this by its context, stressing the apparent incongruity of a meadow in such a place. The meadow itself will have been developed from a planting scheme devised by ethno-botanist Dr. Peter Giovannini, using common plants chosen for their biomedical potential. The project will also investigate the relationships among peoples perception of herbal medicines and their contemporary & historical role in society.
The scheme will draw on scientific information articulating the biomedical properties of common plants such as nettle, dandelion and ribwort plantain, presenting an alternate version of work generated by units such as Kew Gardens Sustainable Uses of Plants Group and Chelsea Physic Garden. The plants medicinal potential and biomedical value qualities will be re-visioned by commissioned artists who will endeavour to reach new audiences not necessarily attuned to both botanical & biomedical information.
Collaborators include Caitlin Elster, Colin Nightingale, Naseem Khan, Melissa Thompson, Dr Peter Giovannini,
Talya Baldwin, Vhils, Michael Smythe and the Teesdale & Hollybush TRA

Jags' Rookie Safeties Facing Monster Test

Follow @ BlakeeBass
Denver quarterback Peyton Manning has been selected to 12 Pro Bowls, a record at his position.
Jaguars rookie safeties Johnathan Cyprien and Josh Evans have played in 10 NFL games combined.
For Cyprien and Evans, Sunday's game at undefeated Denver (5-0) will likely be their "Welcome to the NFL" moment. The Jaguars (0-5) are currently a whopping 27 ½-point underdog.
Manning is the main reason why. He's the only player in NFL history to win four Most Valuable Player awards and he's in strong position to claim a fifth MVP this season.

Alpine Team Leading the Way to Stewardship Success in Texas
When the sign-up window opened for USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service's Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) in 2012, the five-member NRCS Alpine Resource Team was ready. The team is responsible for more than nine million acres of the Trans-Pecos region of Texas, and protecting the region's natural resources comes first.
CSP is a voluntary conservation program that encourages producers who are already participating in NRCS conservation programs to take their efforts to the next level. Participants address resource concerns in a comprehensive manner with financial and technical assistance from NRCS—not only by tackling new practices, but also by maintaining, improving and managing the existing conservation measures on their operation. The program, begun in 2009, was still fairly new in 2012. Read more »

Using flyers in your marketing campaign means that you get many advantages, such as versatility, low cost, and an easy design. Take your advantages even further with full color flyer printing. Don't be the one that goes unnoticed or the one that blends in with the crowd. Make your flyers the talk of the event by incorporating a bright design into your color flyers.
Details: Flyer Printing
Flyers stand out from your competitors' one color or black and white flyers. Instead of a mass of black text which blends together, color flyers can make your important copy noticeable with contrasting colors and colorful boxes or borders. Using color for your headers and including sharp images catch the eye and draw consumers into your message. Plus, when you use PrintPlace.com, you get plenty of printing extras at the lowest prices in the industry.
Check out the many sizes, paper choices, and folding options we offer on our Instant Pricing form. If you need perforation, tabbing, or even an art check or mailing services, PrintPlace.com offers these options as well. So don't settle for less when you can get more for your flyers here at PrintPlace.com.
Follow the specifications provided to ensure your artwork prints correctly. Our templates are provided as a ZIP files and include PDF, AI, and JPG versions of each template.

Many business reach for flyers when they need an easy, low-cost marketing piece. Flyers not only are a quick design but also the same flyer can be used for several of your marketing ventures, giving you more mileage for your money. For the best results, full color flyer printing is the route you will need to take. You've probably been handed many black and white flyers on the street or may have noticed a few on street poles, so why should you print in full color? Here are just a few of the advantages that full color flyer printing offers.
Advantage #1: Full color flyers catch the eye much more easily than do black and white flyers. Even when black text is printed on colored paper, the words run together into a blurry mass. No headlines stand out, any images included go unnoticed, and worst of all, your call to action is lost somewhere amidst the sea of black ink.
With flyer printing, your images will draw a viewer's eye like candy to a child. A colored headline stands out from the rest of the text. Your call to action can be brought to attention with a border or starburst. And at PrintPlace.com, our standard features such as full bleed and a gloss coating will make your flyers look that much more enticing.
Advantage #2: Branding is easy when you use full color flyer printing. Without your brand stamped on every marketing tool you use, your company will go unnoticed. With so many choices available to consumers no matter the industry, businesses need to supply customers with associative tools to remain in their memories. For instance, the red and white colors of Coca Cola is recognized worldwide.
Incorporate your brand colors into your flyer, being careful not to use too many colors. Stick with two to four at the most so as not to overwhelm readers with too much activity. Never forget your logo. Place this in a spot where it can be easily noticed so that consumers have a symbol with which to associate your company.
Advantage #3: Unlike black and white flyers, full color flyers are easy to design. Trying to make your main points stand out when all of your text is the same color can be nearly impossible, especially when designers advise you to stick with only two different font types and sizes.
With flyer printing, its easy to make your main message noticeable while following rules of design. As mentioned above, use boxes, different fonts, borders, different colors, and even blank spaces (known as white space) to separate information. Incorporating more than one of these techniques enable you to highlight different aspects of information while avoiding too much of each technique.
Advantage #4: Contrary to popular belief, professional full color flyer printing is comparable in price to black and white printing in the office. Businesses forget about those hidden costs when using their inkjet to print black and white flyers, such as the ink, the drum, and paper. And then there's the time spent aligning the printer, printing, and folding each flyer.
With a professional printing company, you can get much more options for the same or even lower costs as home printing. A commercial printer offers time-saving services, and the more you order, the less you pay per flyer. At PrintPlace.com, we provide nine sizes, five paper types, four folding options, and even mailing services.
Let us show you the difference!

New Stimulus Funds will make Black & Latino Communities Healthier
The health of the nation's black and Latino communities stands to get a significant shot in the arm from the $650 million in health and wellness funding announced this afternoon by the Department of Health and Human Services, according to PolicyLink, a national research and advocacy organization.
The Prevention and Wellness Fund, funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (a.k.a. the federal stimulus bill), should go a long way toward creating healthier communities across America and, in particular, battling the pernicious racial disparities we see when it comes to obesity and diabetes rates.
"This new funding will throw a lifeline to millions of black and Latino children and their parents and help create healthier communities across America," said Angela Glover Blackwell, CEO of PolicyLink and a principal advisor for the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Center to Prevent Childhood Obesity. "Black and Latino Americans are hit hardest by the dual crises of obesity and diabetes. All people deserve to live in healthy communities - places with clean air, safe streets, clean parks, and easy access to healthy food options. These new funds will put us on a path toward healthy communities for all."
The Administration's funding approach appears to back three core policy principles PolicyLink and its partners have long called for:
- Healthy food in our schools
- Healthy food options in our communities
- Healthy and safe places to live and play
The funding plan also lines up well with recommendations provided to the White House by PolicyLink and the Prevention Institute. To read those recommendations, click here.

Nice Review Article on Barefoot Running Here:

I know I'm an electrical engineer and all most of my coworkers wear all kinds of mismatched clothes. While at work I'd most definitely have to go with something low key like the Vivo Barefoot shoes which have a somewhat more of a dress shoe look.
It's just another one of those items I've had on my "want" list for a while, a bit lower priority than other things though. Maybe once I get back from school (Army stuff) in July.

Pain is your companion, don't go hide from it."

Cry me a river Mr. Tubbs. You murdered my son's baby sister and you are worried about being slandered?! You are worried about the affects of all this on your wife and daughter? Perhaps you should have thought about all that before you beat and shook that baby to death. Did you bother to think about how your actions will (have) effect(ed) the people who loved Emerald? Just so you know, my 5 year old cries about losing his sister. He asks why YOU did that to her, why someone would hurt a baby. This will be something we will have to deal with for years to come. Your problems seem pretty minuscule and petty in comparison to what my child is going through due to your actions.
