The 17,000-square-foot smorgasbord of inventive creativity beckons people of all skill levels to its DIY confines, where members can wield tools not found in most private workshops, slicing through steel with a plasma cutter or accessing 3-D design software to finally realize the goal of crawling inside the Internet.

Matt Harvey struck out 10 in seven overpowering innings, and David Wright and Juan Lagares each hit a home run upheld by video review to lead the New York Mets to a 5-0 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. Marlon Byrd followed Wright's first-inning homer off the dark metal railing atop the new left-field wall with a no-doubter into the second deck against Cliff Lee (10-4) for New York's first back-to-back homers of the season. Lagares' drive that also struck the railing in left was a three-run shot, giving New York a 5-0 lead against the 2008 AL Cy Young Award winner. Lagares made a running catch in center field with Delmon Young on third base in the seventh to help preserve the shutout.

"Defenders on parade: entrance to the factory tour", not one of those cars is a defender, they're all series landrovers. This opening few paragraphs of the article reads like a train wreck until further in when it kicks in properly and someone who actually understands their subject seems to have got involved, until then its a confused mess suggesting that every land rover apart from the disco was called a defender since the first 4wd landrover product. And "We all know there's only on one true Land Rover: the Defender", er, I can hear various series owners choking on their brews from here.
For the record I drive a 90TD, which although its defender shaped, is most definitely not a defender also.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.
I never thought I'd try out the online dating gig but here we go...I'm an easy going guy who puts 100% into every relationship I've had. I enjoy doing outdoor activities such as hiking, canoeing, going for walks, and things like that. I'm a big braves fan so I will watch them on TV occasionally and go to some games when I can. I try and go to the movies whenever there is a movie I'm dying to see. I really want to travel in the next couple years and would like to have a travel companion with me. I'm at the point where I would like to find the person I want to be with and share life experiences with. On days I don't work you'll usually find me hiking somewhere or hanging with friends at their house or going out for a few drinks. During the spring I want to do some camping and more outdoor activities. I enjoy staying active most of the time but I can also stay in and watch a few movies and make dinner with that special someone. There's a lot more I could write here but the fun part is having that conversation with the other person so if there's anything you'd like to ask please feel free :)

Jim Irwin (right) is a member of the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame. He is pictured here with his partner of many years Max McGee. Irwin died today of cancer. When Jim Irwin made the call as the clock wound down to zero at the end of Super Bowl XXXI, Packers fans were ecstatic. "World champions, Green. Bay. Packers." That was Irwin's call – one he had waited decades to make and one that was well deserved. That's what came to mind today when I heard that Irwin had died from cancer. How many times did we listen to Irwin through the years – probably more than we realized. If we listened to the Badgers, Packers, Bucks and even sometimes the Brewers, you heard his golden voice calling the plays, describing the game like none other.

ROCKVILLE, Md., Nov. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Lockheed Martin UK has expanded its offering of cloud computing services available to the UK government after recently being selected to provide G-Cloud 2 IT support. This new contract succeeds the previous G-Cloud 1 program and will run for 12 months, allowing Lockheed Martin UK to provide an even wider range of services that includes infrastructure, software and specialist cloud capabilities.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110419/PH85737LOGO-b)
Under the G-Cloud 2 framework agreement, better known as CloudStore, Lockheed Martin will now offer support such as computing and storage, e-mail and collaboration, cloud strategy and integration; cloud security; mission centric activities; green IT and energy optimization; cloud brokering; virtualization consulting; assessment for Oracle virtualization; and virtual desktop as a service assessment.
"Lockheed Martin's selection for the G-Cloud 2 program reinforces that our proven cloud solution meets the expanded needs outlined by the UK government," said Vicki Schmanske, vice president of the company's IT & Security Solutions organization. "We look forward to working with UK government departments and agencies and leveraging our U.S. cloud experience to deliver innovation-led, efficiency savings."
Lockheed Martin will support G-Cloud 2 through its Solutions as a Service (SolaS™) secure cloud delivery innovation. This mission-focused approach to secure cloud computing combines best-in-industry partnerships, unprecedented domain expertise and advanced technology to deliver private, community and hybrid offerings for a variety of customers. The corporation began its investment in cloud solution development in early 2008, with its first cloud implementation in early 2009. Since then, Lockheed Martin has been on the front lines of the cloud evolution.
Lockheed Martin is the leading provider of IT services to the U.S. federal government. In the UK, Lockheed Martin was the IT prime contractor for the 2011 Census, and the inclusion in the G-Cloud 2 framework agreement will strengthen the corporation's IT service activities across the broader UK public sector.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security and aerospace company that employs about 120,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The corporation's net sales for 2011 were $46.5 billion.

The basic integration architecture, as defined by ESBs, hasn't changed for more than a decade. Most cloud integration providers still rely on an ESB architecture and their proprietary connectors. As a result, enterprise integration projects suffer from constraints of availability and reliability of these connectors that are not re-usable across other integration vendors. However, the rapid adoption of APIs and almost ubiquitous availability of APIs amongst most SaaS and Cloud applications are rapidly redefining traditional integration approaches and their reliance on proprietary connectors. ...

Although interoperable communication — the ability for first responders from different jurisdictions to talk with one another — has been a major national goal, governments have been slow to act on it, said Costis Toregas, president of Public Technology Inc., a national technology research organization for local governments.
"Although people pay lip service to it, we're not seeing overall vision to interoperability in the expenditure package," he said.
There hasn't been consistency in how those funds have been spent. Some homeland security experts say local governments have spent a good deal of federal funds on "boots and suits" — equipment, gear and training for emergency
From a first responder perspective, the boots and suits are critical, said Neal Pollard, a senior director with Hicks and Associates Inc., which is spearheading a first responder needs assessment project for the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism and the Terrorism Research Center Inc.
"They've got problems to deal with today," he said. "Yes, it's possible they're going to have a catastrophic terrorism attack in their jurisdictions within the next two years. That is a possibility, but it's a probability that Mother Nature is going to throw something nasty at them."
That probability means the federal government should focus on homeland security from an all-hazards perspective to help first responders deal with hurricanes, earthquakes, floods and tornadoes, too. "You cannot give a firefighter a locker for terrorism and a locker for everything else you're going to have to deal with," Pollard said.
Another reason first responders tend to focus on boots and suits is their limited exposure to developing technologies. "If their procurement cycle is 18 months and the next-generation widget comes out in 19 months, then absent some sort of unique insight into that industry or some special contact or they happen to work with a lab, they're not going to know they should wait one more month for procurement," Pollard said.
There needs to be greater collaboration and communication between first responders, who can convey their needs and capabilities, and technology researchers and developers, who can describe new technologies or modify their investments to meet those needs, he said.
Although boots and suits are needed, Thom Rubel, META Group Inc.'s director of state information technology programs, said, "there's also a feeling among states that it hasn't been strategic enough. I think the general sense is that so far more has been spent on response and not enough on prevention. And that's the harder part."
For example, he said some state and local governments are at different stages of deploying interoperable communications systems. Some local officials have already invested in systems and can't wait for state decisions on a common platform, which signifies that they lack a governance plan or have a poor one in place.
"I really honestly think that strategic planning and governance [are] going to take at least a couple of years to get in sync here," he said.

I get a lot of questions about what kind of chalk do I use, and what kind doesn't stain, etc., so I decided to do a test. When I chalk, I use a combination of different chalks. I take into consideration the surface, the weather, the colors of the piece, how long I have to complete the piece and how detailed it is. Different chalks are better for different things. As you can see from this first picture, some chalks work better for detail and others are better for intense color and coverage.
The surface is a rough, fairly clean concrete. The chalk was applied directly to the concrete and traffic on this surface is minimal, so I will take pictures after the rain or sprinklers hit it, to document what happens to each brand.
Brands tested:
It's hard to compare these 6 brands directly, because they come in different size sticks (and a can), and some last longer than others. Prices do not include shipping or tax.
After the Rain
Washing it off
After about 10 days, and a couple of strong rains, we hit the spray chalk with a hose (see right). There is little difference between picture 1 and 2. So then we got out a brush and scrubbed it and then rinsed it, and the third photo is the result. The spray chalk is very durable, so use with caution.
Scrubbing off the chalk
After a couple of weeks, multiple rains and a hosing off, it was time to try scrubbing with liquid soap, and then Clorox spray cleaner with bleach. As I hosed it off, there was color being removed, but after drying, there is still some staining. To the far left, is the picture of the Street Stix afterwards, and the picture closer left is the Montana spray chalk after scrubbing.

Saturday marks the official midway point of the Boston Red Sox's season, as they take the field for their 81st game. Defined as much by injuries as it was by great performances, perhaps no first half in recent memory has caused such dramatic swings in expectations. It provided a slew of bizarre trends, unique numbers and eye-popping statistics.
First with the position players, let's dive into the numbers behind a roller-coaster first half.
He's second in the majors with a .349 batting average and has the top OPS at his position. Clearly, much can be said about Beltre at the midway point of the season. So, here are just some of the finer points with help from STATS LLC:
• .340 batting average with two strikes -- second best in the AL over the past 20 years (Placido Polanco had .350 in 2007). Over the past 20 years, Nomar Garciaparra (.331 in 2000) is the only Red Sox player to hit over .300 with two strikes.
• .400 batting average with two outs -- highest by an AL player since Ichiro hit .407 in 2001. Over the past 35 years, Garciaparra's .376 in 2000 is the best among Red Sox players.
• .390 batting average with runners in scoring position -- leads the AL and is the highest by a Red Sox player since Manny Ramirez hit .435 in 2002.
You can understand why this stat exists, but that doesn't make it any better. Cameron has now gone 54 straight plate appearances without a walk. That's 14 straight games, his longest stretch since 1999. Perhaps he's trying to endear himself to the fans he's yet to win over. Or maybe he's looking to take full advantage of his chances knowing he's unlikely to be in the lineup the following day. Regardless, it's clear Cameron has taken a noticeably more aggressive approach at the plate. As a result, even though he's on pace for his highest batting average since 2006, it would be his lowest on-base percentage since 2003. Defensively, injuries have limited Cameron, who has minus-6 runs saved this season, according to Baseball Info Solutions. Red Sox center fielders as a whole are at minus-9, the second worst in the majors, ahead of only the Dodgers.
The Cal Ripken of the Red Sox outfield, J.D. Drew has twice started 14 straight games this season. That's not to say he's been particularly healthy. Drew has already missed time due to vertigo, neck stiffness and a hamstring strain. But Boston's cavalcade of outfield injuries has pressed Drew into action when he otherwise may have been given a game off -- particularly against tough lefties. In the past, Terry Francona did an excellent job of deciding which lefties to rest Drew against, and Drew responded by hitting .277 against southpaws over the previous two seasons. No such luxury has been possible this season. The result? Drew is on track for 164 plate appearances against lefties, a number he's topped only once in his career. He's hitting just .186 with a .518 OPS against lefties, both easily career lows. That has masked a tremendous season against right-handed pitchers, versus whom Drew is hitting .309 with a .959 OPS.
What's the biggest difference between the 2010 Bill Hall (.744 OPS) and last year's version (.596 OPS)? Just look at his numbers with two strikes. Last season, Hall hit .094 with two strikes, the worst for a major leaguer since Reggie Abercrombie and old friend Mark Bellhorn both hit .086 in 2006. But in 2010, Hall is hitting .198 with a .651 OPS with two strikes. Those are actually quite reasonable numbers when you consider the league averages are .185 BA and .538 OPS. All that says nothing of Hall's true value: his versatility. He's started a game at five different field positions, the most by a Red Sox player since Damian Jackson (six) in 2003. Oh, and Hall also pitched a perfect inning.
David Ortiz leads the Red Sox with an RBI every 4.2 at-bats this season. Would you believe that Jeremy Hermida is actually second? It's true, at least among those with 100 plate appearances. Despite hitting just .217, Hermida's RBI per 5.1 at-bats is better than Kevin Youkilis or Adrian Beltre. Of course, there is a very simple explanation. With runners in scoring position, Hermida is hitting .302 with 13 of his 30 hits on the season. When there's nobody on second or third, he's hitting a mere .179.
Going into May 29, Victor Martinez was hitting just .262 with a .770 OPS. Not exactly the numbers Boston wanted from its No. 3 hitter. Even worse, he'd thrown out only six of 62 would-be base stealers. That 9.7 caught-stealing percentage would have been the fourth worst in the AL over the past 20 years. That day against the Royals, Martinez nabbed Scott Podsednik, the first baserunner he'd caught in nearly a month. Including that, he's caught five of the past 24 base stealers (20.8 percent), and his bat has followed in tow. Before getting injured, Martinez hit .354 in June, best among all catchers. The connection between his catching and hitting should not be discounted, particularly when you consider how much better he has hit while behind the plate. When catching, Martinez is hitting a robust .312 with a .891 OPS. In his other 25 at-bats, he's managed just one hit. Over the past 35 years, the only Red Sox player to hit over .300 while catching was Carlton Fisk (.316 in 1977).
Perhaps the definition of a replacement-level player, McDonald has proven to be an adequate stopgap to a decimated outfield. With a .728 OPS, he falls just below the league average of .746 in center field. However, breaking down his at-bats, it appears McDonald could actually benefit from becoming an even more aggressive hitter. Consider that in at-bats ending within two pitches, McDonald is hitting .500 (24-for-48) according to Inside Edge, far exceeding the league average of .333. In fact, it ranks second in the majors behind David Wright (.513) and just ahead of Justin Morneau (.483) and Joe Mauer (.474). Not exactly bad company. But as you probably guessed, it all falls apart for McDonald after that second pitch. In at-bats of three pitches or more, McDonald is hitting just .172 (21-for-122) when the league average is .229. This would be less of a problem if it translated into walks, but he has only 14 on the season.
David Ortiz
A case could certainly be made for David Ortiz as the best hitter in the game since the beginning of May. His 16 home runs are tied for the most in the majors and only Josh Hamilton has more RBIs. But no one has a higher OPS than Big Papi's 1.066. Much of that is due to the best May of his career (1.152 OPS), which ironically came after his worst-ever April (.524 OPS). All of this bodes well for the rest of the season when you consider that Ortiz has had a higher second-half OPS in every season he's been in Boston.
Over the 14 games before Dustin Pedroia fractured a bone in his foot, he was hitting .491 with a 1.397 OPS. That was good enough to bring up his average from .248 to .292. While that would still be his career low, Pedroia was on pace for career highs in home runs, RBIs and OPS before getting injured. Yet, even those numbers don't fully explain how valuable he'd been to the lineup. Consider the following: At the time of his injury, no player in the majors had seen more pitches (1,482) or fouled off more pitches (294). Prior to his injury, he was on track to see 3,213 pitches this season -- or 390 more than he saw last season. Since 1988, no batter has faced more than Bobby Abreu's 3,159 in 2005. Those numbers add up when it comes to chasing starting pitchers, and are yet another reason why Pedroia is the peskiest hitter in the game.
Not since Jody Reed have the Red Sox had a hitter quite like Scutaro. That may sound like faint praise, but it most certainly isn't. Don't forget, Reed led the majors in doubles in 1990 and finished 18th in the MVP voting. Like Reed, Scutaro is a tremendous contact hitter with a discerning eye. No one in the majors swings and misses less often than Scutaro, who does so with only 5.3 percent of his swings. That's the lowest for a Red Sox hitter since Wade Boggs in 1992. Reed's career best was 5.4 percent in 1988. At the same time, Scutaro doesn't swing at 64.8 percent of pitches, which ranks sixth in the majors. To find that kind of plate discipline, you again have to go back to 1992 when Boggs (65.2 percent) and Reed (65.1 percent) teamed up atop the order. That combination of contact and restraint has brought Scutaro success atop the order, where he's filled in capably for Jacoby Ellsbury. Consider this: Scutaro has a .310 batting average and .391 on-base percentage when leading off an inning.
Going into the season, you would have been hard-pressed to find someone who would have predicted this: At the midpoint of the season, Varitek has more home runs than the catchers from exactly half the teams in baseball, including the Yankees. And though Varitek's sample size is a bit small, no catcher is averaging more home runs per at-bat. While Varitek's batting average is up by .054 from last season, that is actually mitigated by his miniscule walk total. But as a backup catcher, his rediscovered power is merely a bonus. His true value is handling the pitching staff while Victor Martinez rests. Just ask Jon Lester (1.88 ERA with Varitek behind the plate) or Daisuke Matsuzaka (2.89).
Kevin Youkilis
Somehow, despite playing on one the most covered teams, a case can be made that Youkilis is among the most underappreciated stars in baseball. Since 2008, only Albert Pujols (1.082) and Manny Ramirez (.989) can top Youkilis' .965 OPS. He's on track for career highs in home runs and OPS. His current pace would put him at 127 runs, the most in Boston since Wade Boggs (128) in 1988. In May, Youkilis had 31 walks, the most in a calendar month for a Red Sox player since Carl Yastrzemski's 33 in June 1968. Even with only seven walks in June, he's on pace for a career high in that category, while sporting the lowest strikeout rate of his career. Most impressive of all is what Youkilis is doing against left-handed pitching. His 1.404 OPS against lefties is the best in the American League over the past 35 years. Only Juan Gonzalez in 1996 can top his .877 slugging percentage against southpaws.
Quick hits
• Jacoby Ellsbury -- Despite having played in only nine games, Ellsbury actually had a streak of seven consecutive games reaching base. That's longer than any streak put together by McDonald or Hermida.
• Mike Lowell -- How has Lowell adjusted to being a part-time player? If he played the day before, Lowell is hitting .286 (10-for-35). If he didn't play the previous day, his average plummets to .156 (7-for-45).
• Daniel Nava -- Nava has seemingly come from nowhere to hit .372 with 11 RBIs in his first 15 games. The past two Red Sox with at least nine RBIs in their first 15 career games: Morgan Burkhart and Creighton Gubanich. Those two combined for just 10 RBIs over the rest of their respective careers.
• Jonathan Van Every -- He's pitched in each of the past two seasons for the Red Sox. He also has a home run in each season. The last Red Sox player who can make that claim? Sonny Siebert in 1971 and 1972.
• The pitching staff -- The Red Sox pitching staff finished interleague play hitting .313. Their .743 OPS tops Boston's combined outfield production (.729 OPS). Sure, it's in just 24 plate appearances and means next to nothing. But, hey, bragging rights count for something.

My personal belief is that Chris Kreider will be a great second line LW, 25-30 goals, terrific on special teams, with incredible speed and strength. I can understand why they don't want to trade him. He has tremendous value.
Now, few Ranger fans have been pushing for Ryan on HFBoards like I have. But Ryan is not an elite winger. I can name 25-30 forwards that have more value, and if I can do that, that means he is not elite. He is very good, with the potential to become elite.
The Rangers have the following untouchables: Lundqvist, Richards, Callahan, Gaborik (for now), McDonagh, Staal, Girardi, Stepan, Kreider. They would deal Del Zotto, but I don't think the Ducks will want Del Zotto. Stepan is untouchable not necessarily because he is that great, although he is a very nice young player, but because the Rangers are trying to win a Stanley Cup and if they deal him, they don't have a second line center. While apparently the Rangers wouldn't move one of Staal or Girardi for Ryan, I would have no problem doing so, but I don't believe that the Rangers would have to add more than one of Dubinsky or Anisimov or a good prospect like Miller or McIlrath. Either Staal or Girardi is as good a shut down defenseman as Ryan is a scoring winger.
I don't think there is anything wrong with the rest of the untouchable list (Lundqvist, Richards, Gaborik, Callahan, McDonagh, Kreider). They're all worthy of that label, at least to our team, or they simply aren't realistic options for trade due to clauses/contracts/age/cap hits.
You want Ryan you'll have to give something we want back... not "here choose whatever is left over from our extras bin". We are in the business to win hockey games not help the Rangers win hockey games by handing over one of our better wingers on the team.

The Wii, you, Wii U, we, and you.
By Dalai 2 Comments
Yeah let's get the Kung Pow joke out of the way.
And so the next generation can now be seen over the horizon and it's Nintendo's turn to get the ball rolling with the Wii U. Now let me get the name thing out of the way right now. The Wii has significant brand name recognition that is now synonymous with Nintendo so to keep the Wii brand going is a smart move. We're all used to the Wii name and we'll all get used to the Wii U. I've seen people point out the view/Wii U homophonery and that makes sense given its crazy controller. But they could've renamed it something manly and cool... or super-generic. Like the WiiPad.
But trivial details aside, Nintendo's press conference was an odd bird. On one hand, they got some great 3DS software in the works and Zelda: Skyward Sword is still Zelda: Skyward Sword. On the other hand, they introduced the Wii U by showcasing its controller, ignoring the actual hardware making some people (crazy people who think Nintendo crazy enough to do such a deed) think the controller IS the console, and blurting out a handful of core games that will be coming to other consoles. It's all I need to "get hype" as the internet calls it, but the internet also invented skepticism so obviously everybody is ready to pounce on Nintendo picking at every negative aspect, no matter how minute it is. Not GameCube backwards compatible? Is this really a selling point? Name a console that is compatible with games from two generations ago.
Still waiting.
No Wii upscaling? Is it necessary? Obviously upscaling Wii games would be an improvement in clarity on HDTVs, but I would hope most people can live with the absence of HD Wii games. One tablet controller per machine? Well you guys might have a point here, but there's also the counterpoint that rendering two screens is impressive enough and attempting to render two or more of those controllers plus the TV would be overkill. Having more than one WiiPad per console can change how we play multiplayer games locally, but it could be a lot to ask for. Still, imagine playing Madden with a friend locally and choosing your plays via the controller... hold on... I forgot nobody plays Madden on Giant Bomb.
Despite the drawbacks and concessions the Wii U will ultimately need to live with, having Nintendo reaching out to 3rd parties and core gamers can only lead to good things. We wanted online support on par with the 360 and PS3 and it looks like the Wii U may fulfill that request. We wanted HD graphics because the world left standard definition behind... so Nintendo confirmed 1080p scaling is capable. We wanted a traditional controller scheme and Nintendo is giving you two circle pads and the usual assortment of buttons and triggers. We wanted strong 3rd party support and I think Nintendo will be more accommodating to the EAs and Ubisofts of the world. Nintendo listened to us and we're getting what we wanted. And we don't have to throw away our Wii Remotes just yet, a smart move since I've invested money in Wii Remotes, Nunchuks, and MotionPlus doohickeys. I realize lots of questions remain to be answered, but we've got over a year for a response to our queries. I suspect we'll hear all sorts of details if Nintendo is planning their yearly media summit this coming winter.
Maybe it's my loyalty to Nintendo's style of gaming, but I'm excited for the Wii U. Darksiders II is an official Wii U launch game and I will definitely pick it up for the Wii U provided it comes out around the same time or before the PC version. Killer Freaks from Outer Space... I like the concept so far. Old, British guy fighting Rabbid-like aliens with a cheesy B-movie motif. That can be a pretty cool title if they use the controller to its full potential. If New Super Mario Bros. Mii is a real game, I'll be sure to use my Hitler Mii to save the Mushroom Kingdom... and then conquer Poland. What I'm probably excited about the most is the unknown. What will the launch games be? Will we see the usual suspects (Mario/Zelda/Metroid) or will it be Pikmin 3? Or something brand new? What's the online structure gonna look like? It's safe to say Friend Codes are dead, but will there be achievements? Will the Wii Channels carry over? Will there be GameCube games on the Virtual Console? Where do I strap on the Vitality Sensor?
Will there be Mario Paint? Because this console SCREAMS Mario Paint.

Former Cubs slugger Soriano putting on a show in New York
Alfonso Soriano did something this week Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig never accomplished in a Yankees uniform, driving in 13 runs in two games. Think the Cubs offense misses the 37-year-old slugger?
Instant analysis: Nats 6, Giants 5
Rafael Soriano gave up a run with two outs in the ninth and put the tying runner on second but got a huge catch from Denard Span to end the game and finish off his 31st save, securing the Nationals' fifth straight victory.
everyone in the bullpen you know it's just great to see a buckle up there and above 98 and never see guys come in do his job and Soriano shut it down so and phone calls agree went 441 general it's pretty good. There were some early fireworks and nationals dugout

Cubs already made their Alex Rios trade
The White Sox spent their Saturday in a state of flux after the Rios trade, but the Cubs had no such worry, as they have already dealt their major pieces this year, including veteran Alfonso Soriano .
Life with A-Rod: Soriano says cheaters will be caught
As his teammate, Alex Rodriguez, stared down a 211-game suspension, Yankees and former Cubs outfielder Alfonso Soriano said A-Rod and the other PED users didn't need anything extra to help them.
this is just an almost response we say look. I love the guy I feel bad because of what happened in the offseason bringing in Soriano but this is a good guy I think he agreed with the nationals were doing he was just upset. He's just it was not pick a bit
Do Yankees loom larger in rearview?
The return of Jeter and Soriano may mean the Orioles need to be more concerned with New York.
With Soriano Era over, Cubs trying to create a new identity

ICYMI: Garza, Soriano bid farewell
In this week's edition of ICYMI, Matt Garza and Alfonso Soriano bid farewell to the Cubbies, Bears training camp is underway at a fast pace and Martellus Bennett is quote-worthy...kind of.
Theo: Cubs looking to make more moves before deadline
Alfonso Soriano 's trade to the Yankees was the second step in what may be a busy week for Theo Epstein and the Cubs as the trade deadline nears.
With Soriano gone, when will Cubs go all-in with another megadeal?
The Cubs took a gamble in 2007 -- and lost -- with Alfonso Soriano 's mega-deal contract. With the 37-year-old gone to New York, when will the Cubs again take that kind of major risk?
Samardzija: Soriano lived up to his contract with Cubs
Jeff Samardzija, the longest tenured Cub, says the Alfonso Soriano era has to be considered a success because, regardless of salary, he accomplished plenty in a Cubs uniform.
MLB Notes: Braves pursuing Bud Norris
The Braves are "actively pursuing" Astros starting pitcher Bud Norris and the Yankees and Cubs agreed to a deal for Alfonso Soriano .

Motherboard Monitor 22.214.171.124
Posted by: Import on: 06/18/2004 03:19 AM [ 0 comment(s) ]
Motherboard Monitor (MBM) is a tool that will display information from the sensor chip on your motherboard in your Windows system tray. MBM supports a wide range of Chipsets & Sensor Chip combinations. MBM is compatible with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP and .NET. It took a little time but it finally is here, the 22.214.171.124 release, biggest change is the new IO driver, which will give support for both 32 and 64 bit Windows version, I recommend you simply install MBM over your current install, do the reboot and it should all be fine
if your using the MBMstarter.dll with a 3rd party program, there is a new release included, make sure you use that
The Uguru support is also included in this official release, with which -I think- I am the first one with support for this sensor chip outside Abit, a big thank you for that once more to Chunkeun Lee.
All the changes are listed below, and as normal the download can be found here
New IO system driver for 32 and 64 bit
Uguru support (big thank you Chunkeun Lee, Alien & Dejan M).
VIA VT8237 southbridge support
ATI SB300C Southbridge support
ADT7460 support
ADT7463 support
TMP100 support
MAX6657 support
MAX6658 support
MAX6659 support
Winbond W83627HF/ADM ADT7463 Combo
Option to write to the sensor chip (see FAQ forum, Ini entries)
Option to set the Prio lvl (see FAQ forum, Ini entries)
Option to start MBM at 16 colors (see FAQ forum, Switches)
MBM5ST.exe in the misc director (see the readme)
SHDN not detected problem
BSOD on Win9X with SMART detection turned on
Value deleted in the Windows Run Key
After Hybernation MBM will be restarted with the same parameters that is started up with
SiS5595 scanning now only via a Ini file entry
Inno setup 4.2.5 used (reason of the smaller download)
ssAlarm2 in the sharedmemory for voltage will now hold the voltage value that sensor is set at
new version of MBMStarter.dll

華商 ICCHS Class 74 a special place to be
by Nellie Sonido Feng
Rated "PG" by the Author.
edited: Tuesday, February 25, 2014
Posted: Tuesday, February 25, 2014
looking back to my high school days 1970-1974
February 25,2014
Today we celebrate my high school Alma Mater's ( HUASIONG) 102nd foundation day.
To my Class 74 batchmates who were not able to join our Class 74 reunion last week, I share this article which I wrote for our souvenir program.May you find time to be with us next time.
華商 ICCHS Class 74 ~ a special place to be
AMDG Nellie Sonido Feng 2014 Jan25
It is said that as long as someone remembers, those who have gone ahead still continue to exist, very much alive and well in the memory of those they left behind. It is also said that long after words we have spoken are forgotten, people could still remember how we made them feel.
I am not very good in remembering specifics but mentioning high school days never fail to stirr heart warming memories . I remember our girls safekeeping intermediate paper pads and pens and pencils of our boys and having it ready at hand for the boys to use when we have quizzes. I remember our boys ever willing to go down all the way to the ground floor canteen from the fourth floor to buy snacks specially sweet butong-butong in pink plastic wrappers for the girls. I remember the nicknames (bayabas, baluk,mansanas, quiapo ,macau, etc) and the endless laughter.
I belong to ICCHS Class 74. First year high school started in school year 1970-71 and fourth year ended in school year 1973-74. Dekada 70 as it was known was a period of leftist unrest in the Philippines. Iloilo City too, saw its share of demonstrations , protests and marches against the government . The bombing of Plaza Miranda in Quiapo, Manila on August 21, 1971 shook the entire nation. My mothers death , November 20 the year before, shook my little world more .
Political unrest during that time was a vague memory. What I do have was a vivid recollection of me standing in front of the class, clad in black , singing the lines from Mother Song , feeling warm, unconditional love and compassion from teacher and classmates as my voice cracked while I sang. That particular day, though I cried tears of a twelve year old girl trying to come into terms with the loss of a mother, I felt serenely safe, understood and accepted in that particular special place. I could laugh and be myself inside and outside the classroom.In the presence my classmates and friends of Class 74, I felt I truly belong.
Martial Law was declared on September 21, 1972, school took a long time to resume that year. It saw the compulsory issuance of school identification cards and we got used having a security guard posted at the school gate.
In 1973 , Vietnam war ended. It was also the school year where we were told that we need to prepare for the very first NCEE (National College Entrance Examination).. So we spent time studying , wrestling with English propensity, math, logic and science test questions. The stakes were high , we cannot enroll for college if we do not get a passing score . We were all at tenterhooks!
To top that, we were also the first group of CAT ( Citizen Army Training) cadettes. During training at a plaza somewhere , I could remember crawling the muddy grassy grounds . I also recall learning to dismantle and assemble the garand rifle.
Class 74 have our own share of beautiful faces, beautiful minds, talented artistic performers , natural born leaders and authentic achievers.
We have a supportive English supervisor in the person of Mrs. Jajurie Go who made sure we know in no uncertain terms how she believed in our potentials.
We have a firm and caring Dean of Discipline Mr. Ty Engliong who molded us to be responsible and accountable young people .
We have teachers who mentored us ( Ms. Macalalag, Mrs. De Pili, Ms. Hechanova,Ms. Amparado, Ms. Pama, Mrs.Manua, Ms.Hover, Mrs.Antonio ,Mr.Celis etc.) the best way they know how.
We were fearless and adventurous, we made it possible to travel to Kalibo and join the Ati-atihan festivities before graduation .
We were products of Huasiong, we believe in ourselves and we were eager to conquer college, then the world!

You released this earlier right?
I don't know exactly what changed, but still very good, (maybe better, but I can't see the old version so I don't know) in any case keep up the good work.
Very amusing
The music and some of the facial expressions reminded me a bit of Ren & Stimpy.
Very good work. I love the fact Jesus has a Pokemon keyring :)
Theologically troubling...
Good animation and good artwork. The basic concept of Jesus celebrating his birthday/Christmas was great. It was also a pretty funny touch to have Jesus get a ride home in Santa's sleigh, although I wonder why Satan had it.
On the other hand, the jokes were good, but as I watched it I felt like you went for the easy jokes a little too much. Jesus drinking, Jesus with a girl, Jesus being mean to someone, are all a little heavily used. There might have been some good humor to be found in changing water to wine or multiplying food.
Sweet style
It was well drawn I must say. A lot of drinking animations going on this christmas isn't there? I guess its the theme of choice this year.
Not much else to say really. Other than good style you got going on..
This is both hilarious and wrong on so many levels!
A very nice work, but you can be sure you'll get some hate mail. tough it out though, I expect this to do very well!
quick! if you haven't already, put a link to the christmas 2008 videos on the title page, so it will qualify for the winter contest! you have a good chance!
keep up the good work!
