That said; I unfortunately have to join in with the voices wondering where my battery life has gone on R2. I updated as soon as I could. I did a full wipe of everything, and even wiped my SD card to make sure I left no troublemakers behind. On Monday, my phone beeped at me at about 3 or 4 pm at work to let me know his battery was low. I've never got into the red at work before, but I plugged it in, thinking it's a new rom, it needs time to get used to the battery. Overnight phone went from 100 to 80%, which I thought was pretty ok with the screen off all the time (wifi on on the phone but router off overnight). This morning I noticed that my phone showed no network at home (wifi was on and good); I drove to work, still no network (wifi switched off). I rebooted and the network came back. All good, but I've never had network issues before and no idea if this is related, but it is something I noticed. I carried on my normal day; that is work with gReader reading, Tweedle, some browsing with Opera mini and some reading my downloaded stories with Guardian Anywhere, a couple of texts and WhatsApp messages, when I think I can get away with it at my desk. Before dinner phone reported 58% battery and I wondered what on earth I'd done to it. I decided I needed to stick it in my drawer to make sure I had enough battery left to get home. I looked at it again before home time and the battery had dropped around 3%. So I think the sleep function is all ok -- it is the screen on stuff that is drinking battery. I have autobrightness on, controlled by LUX.
I realise CM roms are never going to have the battery life of stock, but my experience so far with R2 is a bit more extreme than I've noticed on cm9 and 10 and R1 on this phone. Usual usage I'd expect 58% (still in the 70s on one of the CM9s) when I was going home, not before lunch. Sort of hoping it lasts me on the train to Leeds tomorrow.
Sorry for the lack of useful info in this post: I'm just a fan of Daz's roms who loves having the cutting edge android on her device. I'm going to install better battery stats to see if it sees anything useful turns up in it. I know if there is an issue and it is possible to fix, you lot will sort it out. It's quite nice to be using something experimental and in development, so I expect a few bumps on the way.
Other than the battery issue and maybe a network one, I am loving the rom. It is smooth, everything works well and I have no lag. I followed some advice earlier in the thread and stuck CPU governor on performance, 480 min, 1152 max and set on boot on case this would help my issue with battery. Not really noticed a difference with that, so if someone could tell me if this was the wrong thing to do and what it should be, it'd be appreciated.
Thanks again for all the work.

Why, if the supposed crisis was the productive Venezuelan model, did the crisis break out in Brazil? Something that has been shown is that the Bolivarian model adopted over the last decade has gone beyond the economic and political realms, achieving a solid social base, popular organisation – beyond electoral results. Maybe because of that it has managed to successfully get out of, for now, the difficult situation.
Beyond the real serious problems, the induced crisis, publicised on a large scale by the Venezuelan private media, and above all, by the foreign media, there are currently various signs that indicate that the government of Nicolas Maduro is leaning towards stabilising and consolidating itself. This, after an initial moment of turbulence that has lead to many, and not just members of the opposition, to proposing old and many times failed neoliberal formulas and also to demanding that it's time to administrate and correct, forgetting altogether the socialist path.
However, Bolivarian economists insist that this first Chavista government, presided over by Maduro, must have a political economy that radically differentiates itself from the monetarist, neoliberal, pro-capitalist focus- practices which point to "recovering the equilibrium, good practices, and competition" at the cost of reducing spending on wages, reductions in productive activities, loss of economic sovereignty, unemployment, and deterioration of social indicators.
Some people (the most dogmatic ones?) talk about "rightwing-isation" and the presence in Caracas of some "advisers" linked to European social democracy is missed. Those advisors who don't recognise [Venezuelan] idiosyncrasies and vernacular culture, are determined to promote models that have already been frustratingly tried and to stop a "radicalisation" of the model.
No one doubts that there are multiple and diverse points of tension here in Venezuela, and that they range from wage demands (above all from the middle class sectors) and social demands, to geopolitical disagreements with Colombia and the United States. Obviously, the conflicts won't disappear with the Maduro government, and even less so with a rightwing administration which throws away all the advances achieved in the last decade.
The economist Simon Zuniga indicates that the difficult economic situation and the vacillation within the highest (and new) government have prevented a series of gradual but urgent measures from coming into effect until now, in order to confront the principle short term economic and financial problems, among them the inflationary rise and the alarming deceleration of the GDP.
Add to this the fact that both negative symptoms have something in common; the exchange rate attack. Real economic sectors, national and international, have had successes in the implementing of an agenda that aims to broaden the gap between the official exchange rate (6.3 Bolivars to the dollar) and the parallel rate (over 30), applying media based pressure in order to oblige the government to devaluate, as it effectively did in February. "It's essential to immediately disarm this destabilisation strategy which threatens to consolidate a picture of stagflation (blockage by inflation)", he indicates.
The concerning thing is that important sectors of the opposition don't seem to be willing to accept a calmness for very long, which they consider exasperating. These factors in struggle for the reconquering of power, continue, unfortunately, to seek support for a coup. And in the meantime, they continue to play at destabilisation. Further, there are paramilitary groups beyond the border areas (there were arrests in Portuguesa state and their presence was even denounced in the areas around Caracas).
"The Venezuelan opposition is complex and it's not just made up of this or that party, but rather there are important radicalised factors with a lot of influence and decision making power as well. Everything indicates that these groups have taken our neighbour, Colombia, as a logistical platform for acting on Venezuela, given the belligerence of ex-President Alvaro Uribe and the geopolitical differences between the two countries, which would facilitate such actions," said the opposition political scientist Leopoldo Puchi.
There were various meetings held to plan the Venezuelan destabilisation, between Uribe and the opposition, headed by Henrique Capriles Radonski, who continues to accumulate famous sayings, such as this one: "To have a homeland is to have money to go to the supermarket".
What's more, a conversation (made public by the government) between the ultra-rightwing legislator Maria Corina Machado and the representative of the 2D movement, German Carrera Damas, made it clear that the rightwing is seeking help from the US government and its agencies in order to carry out a coup d'état. According to the conversation, Ramon Guillermo Aveledo, spokesperson of the opposition United Democratic Table (MUD), asked officials of the State Department to speed up, via all possible means, including the Putsch option [translator: a reference to a manoeuvre by the Nazis in Munich in 1923] the fall of the Bolivarian Revolution and to end with the Chavismo control.

Poland holidays

Jul 2015 - Sep 2016 departures
Poland is an electrifying country with many examples of wonderful architecture, vibrant cities and an exciting cultural scene all enhanced by the Polish people's friendly smiles. It's still reasonably untouched by the tourist trail, making Poland holidays an experience that are a little bit different from other European breaks.
Warsaw is the capital and a remarkable city. Be certain to explore the 'Royal Route' with its beautiful buildings, famous statues and historic churches. Warsaw Old Town is home to the Royal Castle, St. Sigismund's Column, St. John's Cathedral and the Market Square, where you can choose from many shops, restaurants, cafés and workshops.
Another highlight of holidays to Poland is the important pilgrim city of Czestochowa, situated midway between Krakow and Warsaw. It is home to the Jasna Gora Sanctuary, which houses the picture of Our Lady of Czestochowa, or the Black Madonna. This holy relic has become a symbol of Poland. The late Pope John Paul II lived in Krakow for much of his life and made regular pilgrimages to pray before this celebrated image.
Krakow is a great cultural centre with a strong sense of history. Different to any other major Polish city, Krakow is one of the best preserved medieval centres in Europe. The city centre was largely unscathed by World War II and is thus home to a treasure trove of architectural delights. Today the town is awash with elegant pavement cafés, decadently decorated underground bars and excellent restaurants all housed in some of the most beautiful buildings in the world.
You'll easily pass several hours in Krakow's spacious main square, observing the buoyant atmosphere, relaxed cafés and the constant flurry of people. The famous Cloth Hall is the centrepiece of the square. Wonderful market stalls line the inner walls of the hall selling all manner of craft items, including original artwork, amber ornaments, jewellery and the painted wooden boxes that Poland is famous.
Poland tours often include a stroll through Krakow's wonderfully preserved Jewish quarter, with its quaint boutiques and abundance of antique shops, leading you to Wawel Royal Castle on the banks of the Vistula river. The castle, home to Polish royalty for centuries, sits proudly upon Wawel Hill, casting its gaze over the town. The buildings are a superb example of Gothic architecture and a focal point of the city.

2015 Open Enrollment Begins Nov. 15
Health care coverage is an essential component of achieving the AHA's vision of healthy communities, where all individuals reach their highest potential for health. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) continues to hold the promise of extending coverage to more than 25 million uninsured Americans through a combination of public programs and private-sector health insurance expansions. In 2014 alone, 7.3 million people were enrolled in health care coverage through the new marketplace and over 8 million received coverage through Medicaid making great progress toward that 10 year goal of 25 million.
With the open enrollment period for the 2015 Health Insurance Marketplace beginning November 15, it's critical for all community stakeholders, including hospitals, to continue to reach out to consumers and make the enrollment process easy, accessible and widely available.
Below you'll find a selection of resources to help you navigate the Health Insurance Marketplaces and Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance programs as well as tools to support your enrollment efforts.
Latest News:
New Toolkit for Certified Application Counselor Organizations - In preparation for the next open enrollment period, Enroll America is working to help new and existing Certified Application Counselor (CAC) organizations identify individual CACs. Their new Certified Application Counselor (CAC) Organization Toolkit includes information on how to become a CAC organization, recruit volunteers to serve as individual CACs, and identify other community partners to work with.
Lessons Learned for Boosting Enrollment – Coming out of the initial enrollment period, the State Health Reform Assistance Network released the issue brief Boosting Enrollment: Lessons Learned from 2013-2014 (August 2014) that details observations drawn from Colorado, Connecticut, Kentucky, Rhode Island, and Washington, to offer recommendations intended to maximize enrollment in Qualified Health Plans moving forward. An executive summary of this issue brief provides an overview of the topic, including a brief synopsis of the authors' recommendations for optimizing future enrollment.
Enrollment and Outreach Options and Strategies for States – The National Conference of State Legislatures posted the issue brief Medicaid and Marketplace Outreach and Enrollment Options for States (May 2014) discussing outreach and enrollment requirements under the ACA and highlighting common challenges, and promising outreach and enrollment strategies and options.

Website of the day: Dronestagram
It was once very rare to bear witness to the birth of a whole new medium. But the speed at which technology is moving means that, these days, new ways for people to display their creativity come along almost weekly.
A good example is drones. Not that long ago they were the exclusive property of the military. We only read about them in the headlines.
Now, they've become so advanced, so accessible and so affordable, that almost anybody can take to the skies with their own unmanned aircraft.
Couple that with the high-quality but small-scale optics in modern digital cameras, and it's hardly surprising that something like dronestagr.am came along.
We've been talking about it on our news pages for a few days, after a couple of shots featured on the site picked up top National Geographic photography awards.
But this is where it all happens. A whole community of people who have taken photography to new heights.

3. Square Register
Download the app and get a device about the size of a 50-cent piece that plugs into your iPhone or iPad, and now you can swipe credit cards for payment of goods or services. I use this device at book signings where I'm selling books and can now easily take credit or debit card payments in seconds using my iPhone. Nice.
4. AnyList
My wife and I love this app. Are you a list maker like us? Then you must get this app! It simply lets you make a list, but then allows so much more. You can save the list for repeated use, you can "share" the list with others (think about divvying up chores or items to pick up in a store), and it updates on the fly as you add or delete things from the list for others to see. You can customize your lists in many other ways as well.
5. Voicememos
OK, seems a little boring, but this is a must have for me. Inevitability, some of my best ideas come to me while I'm driving somewhere and can't write things down. I used to have one of those silly little suction cup note pads on my dash to take notes, but not the safest thing in the world. So now, when inspiration strikes while I'm driving or I can't write it down, I record a voice memo for later.
My favorite app for fun
Sleep Machine
You know those cool sleep machines they have in Brookstone and SkyMall ads? Its now an app! You can set this app to play relaxing sounds for you to fall asleep to or listen to as soothing background sounds. If I'm not on a call in my office, I play a three-sound combination of lapping waves at the beach, fireplace crackle, and a stream. When I hear these three sounds together it reminds me of sitting outside my house by the lake, or camping at Lake Aaron where I grew up. Very relaxing, no matter where I am.

My lesson came quietly on a Tuesday morning in March 2010. We heard and saw nothing until a single splash. We both stood.
"Something fell."
"No, I heard water."
We discovered we were both right. There was brown water past the first step of our basement and a bag of laundry had fallen into it, but there was so much more down there than laundry. It was a finished basement with a living room, a bathroom, an office and the laundry room with a pantry and a workbench.
As a child, the basement was the realm of my brother and I. The office was a playroom with a floor to ceiling bookcase. In the living room we'd watch cartoons and Star Wars over and over again. We'd play hide-and-go-seek, build enormous forts, play video and board games and hang out with friends. Besides our backyard and the outdoors, it probably holds most of my childhood memories.
Here it was in all of its disgrace.
I had to look at it. I had to know what was going on. Where did this water come from? How were we going to get it out? But through it all one question kept penetrating my brain:
I stared into one bin. How could I let this happen? I remember collecting all of these... and yet, I haven't looked at them for years.
Memories and relationships are forever - things hold no domain over them.
There was so much water that week - rain, flood, tears - but it was all cleansing. It was a painful, brutal and merciless cleanup (my wedding dress was destroyed), but, without question, I needed it. The year that passed since has been one of change, renewal and upheaval. Learning to let go of my past in order to embrace my present was exactly the lesson I needed.
This post was written for a RemembeRED Prompt.
This week we want you to recall something in your life that seemed terrible at the time, but looking back, brought you something wonderful.
A positive from a negative experience.

Poem Reciting and Concert by Women's Union Members
| Pyongyang, August 21 (KCNA) -- There took place a poem reciting and concert of members of the women's union "We Will Always Remain True to the Party's Songun Revolutionary Leadership" at the Hall of Women on Thursday to mark the 54th anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's start of the Songun revolutionary leadership.
It began with prologue "Do Shine, Day of Songun August 25".
Put on the stage were such numbers as choruses "Glory to General" and "Songun Leadership Is Best" and solo and pangchang "Sing, Road to Front".
The performers expressed their ardent yearning and boundless reverence for Kim Jong Il who led the service personnel and people to the road of victory, always finding himself at the outpost for defending the country.
They emphasized that the history of the Songun revolutionary leadership of Kim Jong Il is given a steady continuity by Marshal Kim Jong Un and will be conveyed to posterity along with the victorious advance of the great Paektusan nation.
Poems and choruses reflecting the revolutionary spirit of the women to steadily advance along the road of the Songun revolution made the concert reach its climax.
Among the audience were Kim Jong Sun, chairwoman of the Central Committee of the Democratic Women's Union of Korea, Kim Jin Ha, secretary of the Pyongyang City Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, officials of the women's union and its members here.

Back-A-Line & Gold Belt 'kidney belt' Info:
Kidney belts go back to the beginning of motorcycling. Bikes then had terrible (or no) suspensions, and roads were rough. Early models were leather and buckled. Some were home-made and others were custom-decorated with rivets and studs by their owners. The idea was simple: to hold one's guts in place better, and supporting one's back a little better, reducing fatigue on long rides.
Even with today's smoother roads and modern suspension technology kidney belts still make a difference you can feel after a long day of riding. The 'Gold Belt' was the first modern design. It's pioneering combination of stiff ribs, absorbent-and-breathable cotton canvas, strong stretchy Lycra and large areas of hook-and-loop make it easier to wear, more comfortable , more effective, and able to last through years of long rides.
Riders also found them easier to roll up, pack and carry than modern plastic body-armor-inspired belts favored by MX off-road riders. The original Gold Belts are nearly the same today as the belts worn by riders like Malcolm Smith, JN Roberts and many others in early Baja 1000s' and other long-distance endurance events. Today, Gold Belts are still the most honest, modern, well made kidney belt available. They provide ideal support for all dual sport and adventure riders.
The patented Back-A-Line goes beyond kidney belt to add a unique back-support mechanism. The developer and patent-holder of the Back-A-Line wrote this story for me explaining his product's history:
- "I'm not an orthopedist, an osteopath or a chiropractor, but when I experienced excruciating back pain 18 years ago, they couldn't help. Some background – I was rear-ended by another car in a way that did not seem all that life-changing. In fact, I felt so effects for three days. And then I felt the full force of an invading army on my spine, radiating down my left leg, rendering me in mind-numbing pain and nearly unable to walk.
- I tried all the standard interventions – 1) the orthopedist who started to talk about surgery immediately, 2) the osteopath who tried to work his magic and, finally, 3) the chiropractor, who gave me a few adjustments and sent me home with, what was then, the state of the art in back supports – a white, elastic "girdle". Nothing helped and nothing changed, at least not the level of pain.
- So I tried a few of the "folk remedies". I tried the rolled-up towel – too soft. I tried a board – too flat. So I took a piece of Styrofoam and shaved it to make it curved and also fit into my lower spine. I secured it with a typical pants belt and wore it – and a later molded prototype – for two years until scheduled surgery. (Remember, it was caused by an automobile accident and the insurance company wanted to close the file.) Because I was not only walking, but was also skiing and playing golf, the surgeon ordered an MRI on the morning of surgery. Three hours later, I was on the operating table with the anesthesiologist one inch from my arm and the doctor came in and said, "I've never seen this in all my years of medicine, but you're going home!
- I got off the table, thanked him, and went back to my old life – pain-free. It turned out that the "curved, firm" piece of Styrofoam corrected my old spinal mechanics (postural habits), and stopped me from further damaging my spine while, at the same time, creating new muscle memory to maintain good posture even when I wasn't wearing it. Bottom line, I have been pain-free for the full 18years, and, at 68 years old, that would be surprising if no car accident had ever occurred."

Hollie Nyseth Brehm, a current graduate human rights minor and PhD candidate in Sociology, recently returned from Bosnia, where she carried out research for her dissertation that investigates the causes and processes of genocide and the spread of violence. The project more specifically focuses on regional and temporal variation in violence, examining why some areas of Rwanda, Bosnia, and Sudan experienced a higher degree of violence during genocide and why some time periods were more violent than others.

Lalinne Bell, the new Scribe for Human Rights, will focus her summer project on the Cambodian genocide and its impact on survivors. Bell, herself a survivor of the genocide, and her family have lived in the United States for 30 years as refugees. As scribe, she plans to research and write about her family's experience of genocide and assimilation. Bell will conduct interviews with her family members and other survivors, and her personal connection with her interviewees will give her writing a richly intimate quality as she explores the disconnectedness, distrust, and fear innate in Cambodian culture following the genocide.

Tropical Breeze Sun Teauser rating
Tropical Breeze Beverages brews four flavors of Tropical Breeze Sun Tea: coconut, banana, pomegranate, and apple spice. Rooibos tea is naturally caffeine-free and loaded with antioxidants. The lightly sweet flavor actually comes from Birch trees. Someone gave the sweetener extracted from the trees a not-so-natural name, xylitol. Perhaps, they believed the name made it sound like it's low calorie, in addition to being low-carb. The FDA and American Dental Association both rate our sweetener as an effective preventative against dental decay. It's carefully crafted with all-natural ingredients; brewed in the U.S., and bottles and labels are made in the U.S.

The X Factor
Who Is Chris Rene? Background Info on X Factor's "Young Homie" [VIDEO]
While we wait for the second week of The X Factor's auditions to kick off later tonight, we decided the time was ripe for us to do a little digging on one of our -- and your! -- faves from Week One, namely, Chris Rene
Chris Rene, 28, Santa Cruz, CA
Chris stunned the judges and audience alike with a rendition of his original melodic hip-hop track "Young Homie." Not only did Chris show off some undeniable talent, he also brings a compelling backstory. The trash collector, who on the day of his audition had been sober for 70 days, is a guy trying to make ends meet and do right by his young son. Aw!
That's not all there is to know about Chris, though. Here's what else we were able to dig up on him through careful Internet stalki--errr, research.
Musical talent runs in the family. His grandfather, Leon Rene, was a songwriter back in the 30's - 50's -- his most famous composition is probably "Rockin' Robin." Leon's son, Chris's father Rafael "Googie" Rene, was a moderately successful jazz and soul singer in the 50's and 60's. These days, Chris's sister Gina and brother Gabriel are both members of an electronica group called Soulstice.
He has an album on iTunes! Soul'd Out, which was released in 2009, shows that Chris has more than one great song in him. With a little polish from the Factor, dude's got definite potential for success.
Drugs were a part of Chris's life for a long time before he got sober. According to police records, he was busted for possession in both 2002 and 2007. We're really glad he managed to clean up his act in time to audition for the Factor; the only high we want to hear about Chris getting is an album going very high on the charts, right?
He loves his fans! Most of his Facebook has been wiped, but there's a post from a few days ago in which Chris says "To all my Fans i Love you and am so thankful!" Which is very sweet, but, um, of course he loves us, because we're awesome.
Flashback! Check out this video from 2009 of Chris and his friend Justin working on a song together. But beware, there's some NSFW language!

Tampa activists ask State Rep. why he voted for foreclosure bill
Janelle Irwin
WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday | Listen to this entire show:
A bill in the state legislature that would speed up the foreclosure process cleared the House floor yesterday and a group of about 20 Tampa Bay area residents arenât happy about it. They protested the vote at Representative Shawn Harrisonâs office in Temple Terrace. Harrison was one of 94 votes in favor of the bill.
Supporters say it will help banks clear up the backlog of pending cases on their books while also ensuring some safeguards for homeowners. It would give banks a way to provide documentation of ownership in situations where a mortgage note canât be found. Sylvia Landis is a member of a group called Foreclosure Hamlet that connects struggling homeowners to groups that can help. She said all the bill does is cover up a path of fraud.
âWhat it does is it tries to convert bad title to good title by papering over and not challenging the title. We have existing laws that allow challenges. What has happened in actuality is that most of the foreclosures are fraudulent. Theyâre false.â
According to an organization called Realty Trac, the average foreclosure takes a little more than two years to complete in Florida. But according to that same group it could go much quicker. This bill shortens the amount of time a lender must wait to file a summary judgment against a homeowner to 20 days. But Landis said itâs helping banks cover for a mess they got themselves into.
âRight now if the bank has the legal right to foreclose, they can complete a foreclosure in 64 days. The reason that the foreclosures have slowed down is that the Florida law requires verification of the complaint. Many of the foreclosure mills have been put out of business and if an attorney puts forward a complaint â the case â and it is not legally valid than the bar has made it clear that they will hold them responsible.â
And Awake Tampaâs project manager, John Streater agreed.
âMaybe this is over-simplification, but itâs going to speed up the process and lean that process more heavily in favor of banks than homeowners.â
Streater opposes any legislation that burdens already struggling citizens. In this case he said lawmakers are solving the right problems for the wrong people.
âI think there is a lot of agreement in society as a whole that there needs to be something done to resolve some of the issues. But it seems like a lot of the things that are done, especially in our state â if thereâs problems, the common folks are the ones that are going to pay to set it right. Not a broad bankers and homeowners resolve it together â some gains, some losses on each side â that appears not to be the case.â
The only part of the bill opponents are viewing as maybe a small victory is a provision that reduces the statute of limitations on collecting money still owed on a property after a foreclosure is completed. Itâs called a deficiency judgment and now it can only be issued within one year of the foreclosure. That could help homeowners who are facing owing money on a home they no longer possess. But Sylvia Landis from Foreclosure Hamlet said the bill will leave banks with even more properties and that could affect homeowners who arenât facing losing their homes.
âThe banks own enormous amounts of properties which they want to unload and get off the books. So, itâs going to force the property values down and I think it will create total chaos in the real estate market.â
And for Walt Seely itâs not just a state issue. Heâs with the organization Move On and he said the bill represents a far greater problem, one that climbs all the way to a national level.
âJust in general like so many other people, I am just very concerned that in this entire country we are seeing more and more representative government that isnât representing the people. Itâs representing the money powers. And thatâs kind of why Iâm here because I think it needs to change. We need to be dealing with the needs of the people.â
The group entered the office of Representative Harrison, a Republican, to find out whether or not he reached out to people who would be impacted by it. Harrison wasnât there to answer, but Seely thinks it is likely that Representatives like him heard far more from banks than people.
âWe have lobbyists with money in power. And they speak and they get heard by representative government; not only at the state, but at the federal level. The ordinary citizen doesnât have that kind of power, that lobby, but we do have the vote. My big thing is, how do we convert the energy weâre seeing in Florida and in the whole country right now into votes? How do we make changes in this country so that we have representative government?
WMNF requested an interview with Harrison, but he didnât respond by deadline. A similar bill in the state Senate still needs to be voted on before being signed off by Governor Rick Scott.

The V Cubs Future Is Now
|Posted by timahuwe on June 27, 2014 at 4:30 PM

Among the items to watch in the VCubs season is who is playing, and where they are hitting in the order. While the Cubs lost today 6-4 to the Rays, the future is taking shape. The five youngest hitters on the team have the most time to develop, one would presume. And since many of them are hitting "up" in the order, they are getting chances, oretty much every day now. And they are (largely) representing.
Luis Hidalgo continues to crush VSL pitching. Rotating between corner positions, he is hitting .353, with an OPS of .911. A 1996 birthday boy, he looks to make a jump to the Dominican Cubs when the season ends, and figures to be in Mesa in November for instuctional League ball.
Another 1996 baby, Wladimir Galindo continues to play about the infield. His OPOS is .911 as well. He might make the jump to Mesa as well in November. I'd be surprised if he didn't.
Jhonny Pereda splits time behind the plate with Hidalgo, and was similarly born in 1996. While his OPS is only .680, he has more walks than strikeouts on the season. I could see him going either way regarding Instructs.
The youngest VCub is Andruw Monasterio, born in 1997. He has taken over the SS post, and while his bat isn't advanced, he has a year on the others. Along with 1996 baby CF Jose Gonzalez, the five all hit in the top six in the order in today's game. Four of the five had hits.
Eleven Run First Foils VCubs

Harrinson Bermudez retired only one hitter, and allowed eight earned runs. Reliever Ivan Medina allowed three more before the Venezuelan Cubs stepped to the plate. Nonetheless, the offense was solid today, in a 13-8 loss to the Phillies.
Eight of the ten players (which included Andruw Monastario, in his pro debut) scored a run apiece. DH Miguel Rico had three hits and drove in two. RF Humberto Garcia and 1B Jhonny Pereda had two hits apiece.
An Early Dozen

After a week of being swept away by the draft and a nice outing from Jen-Ho Tseng, I'm finally back to covering the DSL and VSL.
The DominiCubs struck early and often against the Pirates, winning 12-6. Pretty much all the hitters contributed. CF Roberto Caro and RF Robert Garcia scored thrice. 1B Jose Paniagua parlayed four hits and a homer into 4 RBIs. Garcia added three hits, as well. On the pitching side, starter Oscar De La Cruz had a typical DSL Cubs start. Five innings and hits. Two walks, and a pair of strikeouts. No runs.
The Venezuela Cubs lost in extra innings to the Tigers 8-6. The big pitching news was Eugenio Palma getting in and pitching well. Palma is one of the very young pitchers, and it's nice to see him get a chance, and take advantage. He fanned two and getting seven outs in relief. Alfredo Colorado is also on the same list, and he pitched three scoreless frames. Colorado allowed two hits and a walk, while Palma's time was free of either.
Offensively, 2B Hennry Padra led the way with three hits (including a double and a triple) and two RBIs. RF Humberto Garcia doubled and scored twice. 3B Miguel Rico and SS Danny Gutierrez chipped in with two hits.

Yapson Gomez pitched 6.1 of 2-hit ball, allowing only an unearned run. However, it took a two-run walk-off homer from PH Luis Hidalgo for the Venezuela Cubs to win on Wednesday. Jhonny Pereda had two hits (with a double) and two walks. RF Luis Ayala also had a hit and a walk. Jose Leidenz got the win in relief.
Caro's HR All that's Needed

DominiCubs lead-off man Roberto Caro homered in the first inning. That's all the Cubs pitching would need.
Or get.
Caro and C Yohan Matos had a hit and a walk apiece. Starting pitcher Andin Diaz went the standard six innings, giving up the standard no runs. He surrendered three hits and a walk, fanning five. Santiago Rodriguez earned the three-out save, fanning two and walking one. The team ERA is at 1.39.
Wednesday Results In A Split

Due to getting ready for the MLB Draft, I didn't post Wednesday's results on Thursday. Here they are, albeit it bit late.
CF Roberto Caro reached base three times with a triple, single and a walk. He also scored twice, and drove one in, as the DominiCubs defeated the Rangers 5-1. Carlos Jimenez drove in a pair of runs. Jose Morel pitched walk-less two-hit ball over six innings to earn the win.
1B Miguel Rico had two of the Venezuelan Cubs five hits in a 5-3 loss to the Tigers. Five Cubs errors didn't help the pitching of Carlos Rodriguez early, and the offense never made up for an early defecit.
Pitching Wins It For Dominican Cubs

Santiago Rodriguez pitched one-hit ball over six innings, and Aneuris Rosario closed the game out with his first save, as the Dominican Cubs win 3-2 over the Phillies. Miguel Ruiz had two hits, a walk, and scored a run for the Cubs. The DSL Cubs are 4-1 on the season.
Flip The Script

While the DSL Cubs lost for the first time on Tuesday, the VSL Cubs won.
The victors used a seven-run seventh, and three hits from Wladimir Galindo to pound the Mariners 14-7. Galindo also drove in three runs, and two of his hits were doubles. Luis Ayala scored thrice, and Humberto Garcia had a big game (2 hits, runs, and RBI).
The DominiCubs led early, but fell 8-3 in large part due to a five-run fifth by the Rangers. Luis Acosta and Franklin Tineo had two hits each for the Cubs.

Keyed by three runs from Roberto Caro, five strong innings from Oscar De La Cruz, and three RBI from 1B Jose Paniagua, the DominiCubs cruised to a 9-4 win. 2B Miguel Ruiz had three hits, SS Frandy Delarosa had two hits, scored twice, and drove in one. Only one spot in the order didn't at leat score or drive one in.
The pen was generally solid, though the Marlins tallied twice in the ninth to make it appear closer than it was.

Willimantic, Conn. - Eastern Connecticut State University will hold its fourth annual Day of Giving food drive for people who would otherwise go hungry on Thanksgiving. The Day of Giving will be held from noon to 2 p.m. on Nov. 24 in Hurley Hall, located on Eastern's North Campus.
People Helping People, a student club at Eastern, currently runs the Day of Giving, which was originally created in 2007 by Eastern alumnus, Jason Budahazy '09. People Helping People (PHP) President Amy Gorman '11 is organizing this year's Day of Giving. Gorman receives support from local stores, Eastern's Honors Club, OLAS, Eastern's Center for Community Engagement, Office of Institutional Advancement and Chartwells Dining Services.
Gorman devotes herself to the food drives, which are held over the five weekends before Thanksgiving. "One food pantry told us that the food collected through the Day of Giving food drives supplied them with food for more than eight months. With the economy being so bad these past few years, more and more people are turning toward local food pantries for help. But with the help of our generous community, we can provide the amount of food our local pantries need."
The Day of Giving food drives are held in Eastern's residence halls and in local stores such as Better Value, Ted's IGA, Willimantic Co-Op, Windham IGA and Wal-Mart. Eastern student clubs, sports teams and residence halls volunteer to help with the food drives, which will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the following dates: Oct. 30 at Ted's IGA in Hebron; Oct. 31 at Willimantic Co-Op; Nov. 6, 7, 13 and 14 at Wal-Mart in Windham. Times and places are being arranged for food drives on Nov. 20 and Nov. 21.
The final part of Day of Giving is the meal itself, a Thanksgiving meal with all of the usual carvings and fixings. Last year, Eastern served nearly 400 people in the local community.
"I help run the Day of Giving because I see it as an extremely important event for our community," said Gorman. "Day of Giving brings everyone closer together on a holiday that is all about giving."

By CARL SMITH
Although Congress avoided significant tax increases and budget cuts associated with self-imposed sequestration measures, MississippiŌĆÖs representatives say TuesdayŌĆÖs agreement does not solve AmericaŌĆÖs most pressing problem: runaway spending.
The U.S. temporarily avoided going over the ŌĆ£fiscal cliffŌĆØ when House and Senate members reached a bipartisan tax agreement. The measure also delays budget cuts to numerous domestic and military agencies for two months.
ŌĆ£While neither Democrats nor Republicans got everything they wanted, this agreement is the right thing to do for our country,ŌĆØ President Barack Obama said in a statement Tuesday. ŌĆ£ThereŌĆÖs more work to do to reduce our deficits, and IŌĆÖm willing to do it. But (TuesdayŌĆÖs) agreement ensures that, going forward, we will continue to reduce the deficit through a combination of new spending cuts and new revenues from the wealthiest Americans.ŌĆØ
MississippiŌĆÖs three Republican House members ŌĆö U.S. Reps. Gregg Harper, Alan Nunnelee and Steven Palazzo ŌĆö all voted against the measure, while U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, a Democrat, voted in favor of the agreement.
Harper said Wednesday his vote was an obvious ŌĆ£NoŌĆØ because the bill does not tackle the real problems associated with the ever-increasing national debt, entitlement reforms and private sector job creation.
ŌĆ£We have to address mandatory and entitlement spending,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£We have to start spending what we bring in, not continuing to go over and above.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£There is a way to increase revenue through getting people back to work. We have to create an environment to help business owners and grow the economy,ŌĆØ Harper added. ŌĆ£(DemocratsŌĆÖ economic strategies) are centered on the growth of government, not the economy. We have to be about helping people stand on their own two feet. The solution of making people more dependent on government is not good for our society and country as a whole.ŌĆØ
Nunnelee echoed HarperŌĆÖs sentiments following the billŌĆÖs passage, telling the Associated Press that out-of-control spending is the reason the country is $16 trillion in debt.
ŌĆ£Allowing more revenue today and promising to look at cutting spending down the road is the oldest trick in the Washington book,ŌĆØ Nunnelee told the AP. ŌĆ£Somehow, the day to cut spending never comes. I cannot support a deal that adds to our spending-driven debt crisis.ŌĆØ
Palazzo told the AP the bill ŌĆ£sets the stage for the next crisis by only taking care of two months of sequestration. This may be a deal, but itŌĆÖs no solution.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£I think the bill ... was the result of an honest effort to come together to find a solution to our fiscal cliff problems. But along the way, some lost sight of the goal: real spending cuts, meaningful tax reform and a pro-growth agenda that will help get our struggling economy back on its feet,ŌĆØ he said in a statement. ŌĆ£Congress has grown so accustomed to kicking the can down the road, that government doesnŌĆÖt know how to operate any other way.ŌĆØ
While MississippiŌĆÖs House Republicans all voted against the measure, the stateŌĆÖs Republican Senate leaders OKŌĆÖd the ŌĆ£fiscal cliffŌĆØ bill prior to House approval.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs not perfect, and there is still work left to do,ŌĆØ U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker said in a statement Tuesday. ŌĆ£Congress and the president must reduce the federal deficit. Indiscriminate cuts to defense have been prevented for only a few months. TodayŌĆÖs vote is a step in the right direction, but there is still a long way to go.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£As imperfect as it is, this plan will ensure that the income taxes for most families in Mississippi will not shoot upward this year,ŌĆØ U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran said in a release Tuesday. ŌĆ£There is much more work to be done to responsibly implement spending cuts and other measures to reduce the federal deficit and national debt.ŌĆØ
Harper said the battle for true governmental reform will be tough in the future, but he is hopeful many Americans will look at recent struggles as formative years.
ŌĆ£These last four years have been difficult times for many, but we have an opportunity in a few years from now to look back and say these times made us better,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£We can say they made us re-evaluate our lives and showed us how to move forward. We can solve these problems, but solving them does not mean raising taxes.ŌĆØ

Survey: Do you give e-books as gifts? Why, or why not?

Time for a TeleRead survey: Have you ever given an e-book as a gift? This past weekend, I was ay my dad's for Father's Day. He just moved, and I was treated to a tour of the new place—replete with groaning bookshelves in every room! As my stepmother pointed out a piled-high shelf—in the bathroom, of all places—she remarked, "and we've gotten rid of so many books!" Could've fooled me! Any time you're at the point of putting them in the bathroom, that should be a sign, no? And then the Father's Day gifts came out ... and I saw the problem. My...
Livrada Now Offering E-Book Cards for Authors
February 11, 2013 | 4:58 pm
After closing a $1 million seed funding round led by ICG Ventures, Livrada just went live with e-book cards authors can sell at events, such as conferences, trade shows, books signings and the like. E-book-only authors (like myself) run into problems trying to sell their books at events. What do you do? Have a laptop or tablet set up so people can sign-in to their Amazon account and buy your books? Just think though the logistical nightmare of that for a minute. (I tried to do it last month at a conference. Didn't work.) But selling cards like this? Great idea. It allows authors...

"I, even I, am he that comforteth you" (Isaiah 51:12a).
Summer storms were always a scary time for my young children. When the weather turned blustery on hot summer nights, I usually heard my two oldest children running down the hallway to my bedroom. Even though they had learned Bible stories of Jesus' power over storms and problems, their little hearts were simply too frightened by the strength of a threatening storm. Understanding their fears, I would let them crawl into my bed while the lightning cracked and the thunder boomed. Then, after the storm passed, I would carry their sleepy little bodies back to their own beds.
One night during a storm, I felt God's leading to teach my children an important spiritual lesson. Instead of allowing them to crawl into bed with me, I gently took them back to their room and tucked them into bed. As I sat with them, I taught a little song to comfort their fears while the storm raged outside. The words were simple enough for a four and five year old and talked about not being afraid since God is always with us.
As we sang the words together during the storm, my children experienced God's courage to face their fears. Although they didn't fall back to sleep right away, they were able to wait out the storm without terrified tears. More importantly, they learned whenever they were afraid in life, they could go to their heavenly Father for protection.
Are you in the middle of a storm right now in your life? Maybe you're facing the dark and painful moments of grief or loneliness. Whatever the problem, God promises in His Word that He will be with you (Hebrews 13:5b). Like a loving heavenly Father, He gently holds and comforts you when the darkness seems overwhelming or when the storm's power rages over you. Run to Him now, and you'll also discover He's in the middle of your dark storm. "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness" (Isaiah 41:10).
Heavenly Father, I feel so scared right now, and like a child, I want to panic. I claim Your promise to never leave me nor forsake me. Please, hold me right now, Father, and keep me safe. In Jesus' name, Amen.
"I, even I, am he that comforteth you" (Isaiah 51:12a).

The native habitat for Spanish Moss includes two regions, Tropical America and the Southeast United States.
Spanish Moss is commonly referred to or known as an air plant. Air plants are also known as epiphytes, meaning they derive sustenance from the surrounding air. They are not parasitic or directly harmful to their host, relying on trees or other structures for support only. However, they can inadvertently cause problems to the tree host. If too much moss grows on a tree, then this can restrict the amount of sunlight that the host leaves receive. They can also add considerable weight when wet and increase the trees surface area. The increased surface area can prove detrimental during high windstorms of hurricanes.
Spanish Moss seems to prefer Southern Live Oaks and the Bald Cypress over most other trees. This is due primarily to the mineral leaching that occurs on the previously mentioned species. This leaching process provides nutrients that the moss finds beneficial for growth.
Spanish Moss is relatively easy to grow. The most common ways are by division or even from seed. As stated earlier, this moss is epiphytic, so soil is not required. As long as they are kept in a warm area, have good air circulation and water is provided, these plants will thrive. The surrounding temperature should be sixty degrees or higher. Partial sun is preferable.
The uses for Spanish Moss are varied. It can be used as a mulch, a packing material, insulation or for arts and crafts. If commercially grown, it can be used as a stuffing for mattresses or furniture. During the first half of the twentieth century, moss was even used as packing for automobile upholstery. Moss picked directly from trees should not be used for stuffing or bedding as they may contain pests such as chiggers or red bugs. These insects may be removed by microwaving or boiling the moss for several minutes.
Tips for taking care of your Tillandsia Usneoides (Spanish Moss). Spanish Moss thrives outdoors in cool, shady locations with good air circulation. If your moss turns brown or does not look healthy, see the optimum requirements below:
1) Temperature; Spanish Moss prefers daytime temperatures below 75 degrees.
2) Air Circulation; Spanish Moss is not a terrarium plant. They can not tolerate dampness or high humidity in enclosed environments. Hanging the plant is an excellent way to promote drying and allow ample air circulation.
3) Sunlight; Spanish Moss requires very little direct sunlight. Best location is within 8 feet of a north or east facing window exposed to two to three hours of bright, but indirect, sunlight per day, preferably in the morning.
4) Moisture & Humidity; Spanish Moss is a moisture-loving plant. Misting the moss every day with cool water will keep it moist. However, humidity and water are not as vital as air movement.

CLUB NIGHTS - Monday 5:45PM, Hansen Park
Club Nights commence Monday 13th October at Hansen Park. Club Nights are targeted to grades 7 to 11. At Club Nights, athletes will take part in various activities that will incorporate running, jumping and throwing, the fundamentals of athletics, with a focus on FUN and being active as much as possible. To make these nights successful we need the welcomed assistance from parents to ensure all activities are run safely. Alternative training nights are provided for athletes wanting specific coaching for event skills and technique. These training nights are primarily for competing interclub athletes.
An athlete's official age is his or her age as of 31 Dec, 2014. For example, if a child is 9 at the beginning of the season but turns 10 in December, then he or she competes as a 10 year old the entire season (even before turning 10). If another child is 9 but turns 10 in January, he or she competes as a 9 year old the entire season (even after turning 10). These official ages apply to club nights, Saturday Interclub competition, and the Colgate Games. At Saturday Interclub and the Colgate Games, children compete only against others in the same age group (the exception being that children under 7 compete as a 7 year old). However, on club nights, we often combine age groups (e.g. "under 8", "8 & 9 year olds" or "12 and older") based on the number of children attending.
TRAINING and COACHING
Training and Coaching is available for all athletes participating in the Interclub competition.
Grade 10 to 14 training is held Tuesday and Thursday 5:30pm to 7:00pm at Hansen Park

In my area an 05 R6 goes for about $4000. So if I get this one and want to fix it, by the time I'm done I'm going to be at the exact same price as if I bought one in good condition in the first place. Just doesn't compute to me.
Even if they are going to make a streetfighter out of it a $500 dollar savings doesn't seem like enough of a bargain to warrant buying the bike over a known good one.
I would much rather go to an insurance auction and get one for say $1200 to turn into a fighter.
Anyone else notice this or can point out the flaw in my logic to me?
How's that different from any other used vehicle ad? It isn't up to the seller to determine what constitutes value to you or to anybody else. Don't like it, don't inquire. So simple.

You can buy chef-created clothing, cooking equipment, and food products, and now you can even download chef-selected music--a mix that Anthony Bourdain selected on Rhapsody.com.
Bourdain's No Reservation's Mix (and yes, his show No Reservations does advertise on our site) is an eclectic assemblage of classic rock 'n' roll, punk, soul, jazz, and world music. It's as wide ranging and interesting as he is, with selections ranging from Public Enemy to Richard Hell. Probably the most memorable track is William S. Burroughs doing his rap in "The Last Words of Dutch Schultz."
It makes us wonder what music mixes other chefs would compile. Would Mario Batali select old Italian opera, Wilco, and 50 Cent? Would Bobby Flay go for Kenny Chesney, Kanye West, and Metallica? What do you think? What music would you imagine your favorite chef listens to?
