Some things I think I think:
If you want to scare the daylights out of a Yankees fan, mention that A.J. Burnett might have a few problems dealing with Boston's revised 2011 batting order. Now that the Red Sox have added lefty hitters Adrian Gonzalez and Carl Crawford to their lineup, sidearming right-handers like Burnett will be in big trouble against the Sox, who already have J.D. Drew and David Ortiz around as legitimate lefty power hitters.
With switch-hitting catchers Jared Saltalamacchia and Jason Varitek available, Boston could start seven lefthander hitters against most right-handers. Only Kevin Youkilis and Dustin Pedroia are righthanded hitters who will play every day. Switch-hitting Jed Lowrie could platoon with Marco Scutaro at shortstop and Jacoby Ellsbury figures to be the centerfielder.
The flip side: How will Boston handle lefthanded pitchers in 2011? Theo Epstein addressed this the other day, saying there have been some good teams in recent years who leaned to the left at the plate. I'm guessing one of those teams was the Yankees, who used to throw Jason Giambi, Bobby Abreu, Robbie Cano and Johnny Damon out there on a daily basis. Each of those guys hung in very well against southpaws.
Adrian Gonzalez hit .338 against lefties last season for San Diego. That's the good news. Drew hit .208 against lefties in 2010 and Ortiz swatted them at a .222 clip. Crawford hit .256 against lefties.
Ellsbury hit .318 against lefties during his 2009 season. His 2010 stats are too small to sample as he played in only 18 games last season. Platoon partner Mike Cameron, if he isn't traded by the time you read this, doesn't discriminate. He's a .250 hitter against both kinds of pitching.
Of course, Theo Epstein also points out that righthanded starting pitchers outnumber lefty starters by roughly a 2:1 ratio, which means Boston manager Terry Francona can trot out his lefthanded lineup for at least 100 games without worrying about certain matchups until the middle of the game.
Epstein is usually two steps ahead of his rivals. One would think he's working on a deal to bring in a righthanded-hitting outfielder who can pinch-hit and start against lefties. Or maybe he thinks Darnell McDonald can repeat his 2010 success (.294 BA with a .357 OBP against southpaws). The Yankees used Marcus Thames to good advantage in this role during the 2010 season. He hit .300 against lefties last season in 142 at-bats. The journeyman remains a free agent after the Yankees declined to retain him.
Epstein might decide to keep Cameron as a platoon player for the final year of his deal with Boston, or he could try to move the 38-year-old centerfielder for some loose change.
With the acquisition of Gonzalez and Crawford this week, Boston is now labeled "the team to beat" by veteran scribes such as Buster Olney of ESPN.com. It makes sense. If the Red Sox can straighten out the back end of their pitching rotation, they will have a powerful team, no question about it. Jon Lester is a bona fide ace pitcher. Clay Buchholz is not far behind after his brilliant 2010 season. The key for Boston is getting Josh Beckett, John Lackey and Daisuke Matsuzaka to regain their old form. If that happens, Boston might walk away with the A.L. East division title.
And what about the Yankees? Well, they need to sign Cliff Lee. If the free agent lefty chooses Texas over New York, then Yankees general manager Brian Cashman has to trade away one or two elite farm system prospects for a starting pitcher.
Right now, New York's projected 2011 starting rotation reads this way: CC Sabathia, Phil Hughes, A.J. Burnett … and then what? Andy Pettitte is leaning towards retirement again, and this time he might mean it. Chances are, the Yankees beg him to come back and make it worth his while. That gives them four starters. The No. 5 guy either comes through a trade or from among Joba Chamberlain, Ivan Nova or a fast-rising farm system prospect (lefthander Manny Banuelos is at least one year away).
The Yankees could honestly say they are facing a "bridge year" when it comes to their pitching staff. Banuelos could replace Pettitte in 2012. Dellin Betances and Andrew Brackman are two high-ceiling right-handers who need another year of consistent minor league pitching to prove they are for real.
New York looks like a slugging team that will try to outscore its pitching staff in 2011. The addition of 20-year-old Jesus Montero to the catching corps gives the Yankees another power bat in the making. It is too much to ask for the 6-foot-4, 230-pound Venezuela native to make an immediate impact with his bat. But that's probably what the Yankees are going to need now that Jorge Posada is 40 and likely to spend most of his final season in pinstripes as a designated hitter.
The Yankees' position players aren't getting any younger. Posada is gone after this year. Derek Jeter turns 37 this summer. A-Rod is 36 and demonstrating less flexibility in the field and swinging the bat after undergoing hip surgery in the spring of 2009. Pettitte has one foot into retirement. Mariano Rivera turns 41 this year.
Boston got younger when it signed Gonzalez (turns 29 next May 8) and Crawford (also 29). Youk will turn 32 next summer.
Ortiz and Drew will be gone after this season, barring a miracle turnaround from either veteran. Boston has Ryan Kalish ready to take over for Drew. Ortiz's replacement could come from within. The Red Sox might use the DH slot to give their key players (Youk, Gonzalez, Pedroia) half-days off.
What's the bottom line? Boston took its medicine during 2010 and responded by signing two star players who join Youkilis and Pedroia as the cornerstones of the lineup for the next five years. Tampa Bay has been seriously weakened by its refusal to raise payroll. And the Yankees are getting older.
I bet the Las Vegas bookies are already adjusting their odds to win the World Series next year. Boston has to be the favorite now, don't you think?

PAWTUCKET – At about this time last season, Team Providence Athletics – then an Under-14 girls' basketball travel squad under the direction of Pawtucket hoop legend Walter "Bunky" Gonzalez – bused into the Bay State to qualify for the AAU National Girls' Under-14 Division II Tournament, always held at the Disney Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando.
Unfortunately, it dropped a heartbreaking four-point loss to the North Central Blaze of Gardner, Mass. in the championship final.
PAWTUCKET – At about this time last season, Team Providence Athletics – then an Under-14 girls' basketball travel squad under the direction of Pawtucket hoop legend Walter "Bunky" Gonzalez – bused into the Bay State to qualify for the AAU National Girls' Under-14 Division II Tournament, always held at the Disney Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando.
Unfortunately, it dropped a heartbreaking four-point loss to the North Central Blaze of Gardner, Mass. in the championship final.
Gonzalez's group apparently never forgot the pain inflicted from that defeat, and it more than showed on the weekend of May 10-12.
In the Massachusetts' AAU Under-15 qualifying tourney held at the University Sports Complex in Hanover (Rhode Island doesn't conduct one), Team Providence captured five straight victories, then mustered a thrilling 45-42 triumph over the powerful Massachusetts Ducks of Boylston in the title tilt.
With it, Gonzalez and Co. sealed a berth in the national event, slated for the same Disney site on July 8-13.
"When we won that game, the kids' reaction was like they had just won Powerball," chuckled Gonzalez, who has mentored this group of area girls for over three years now. "My daughter, Danyel (a St. Raphael Academy sophomore), ran up and hugged me, she was so happy.
"Then again, we always have a group hug before every game, and I told the kids before the final, 'We have one more to go!'" he added. "We only had a half-hour break between the semifinal (a 60-48 win over the Boston Showstoppers) and final, and we started the championship (game) at about 4:45 p.m.
"By 6:15, we had won, and the girls just flipped!"
When asked if he was surprised by his contingent's success, he stated quickly, "Not really. I always knew the girls had team chemistry and the will to drive to victory, especially after being so close last year."
Gonzalez had just returned to his Pawtucket home on Wednesday night after yet one more practice session at Cranston's St. Matthew School's gymnasium, and he claimed his girls are ready and raring to go.
"We're still working hard; we had a good practice," noted Gonzalez, an All-Division and All-State guard/forward at Shea High in the mid-1980s. Upon graduating in 1988, he went on to play for Eastern Connecticut State University, where he earned All-Conference laurels as a sophomore and junior after snaring the league's Defensive Player of the Year award as a frosh.
He also spent several seasons coaching at his alma mater, but now he's leading these 12 athletes, those who are freshmen and sophomores from schools as close as SRA, Bay View, La Salle, Juanita Sanchez, Moses Brown and Lincoln School to as far away as Scituate, Cranston East and even Bishop Stang in Dartmouth.
"Our motto is 'Stress fundamentals, and everything else will fall into place,'" he continued. "Conditioning, obviously, is No. 1, but we also concentrate on the basics – ball-handling, passing, footwork, free throws and execution. We went for an hour and a half, and they played hard for all 90 minutes – without a break.
"I caught a little of the 'Aw, Coach! Can't we stop for a little bit?' but I told them, 'Girls, do you want to win at nationals or not? Keep your noses to the grindstone and keep plugging.' And you know what? They did.
"Look at some of the names on our roster. Dasia Allen (a Sanchez sophomore) was the top scorer in the state last year as a freshman, and was third this season. Kaylee Oliver (a Saints' freshman transfer from Swansea) had a great year; she's our sharpshooter, and Deja Ross (a soon-to-be Lincoln School sophomore) is a great talent."
There's only one issue for this squad right now – at it's not discipline or desire at workouts. It's trying to raise more funds for the trip to Orlando. Gonzalez indicated his girls have raised approximately $1,200 "from candy bar sales, canning (at intersections and in front of amiable stores) and begging parents and local business, but we're still short," Gonzalez explained. "We're estimating we need about $5,000 for airfare and lodging.
"We have to be there by July 7 for registration and pre-tournament workouts, so that's the only thing the kids seem a little nervous about."
One thing's a given: They weren't timid about busting their humps to gain the right to fly to Disney World.
In its preliminary game against the Bristol, R.I. Stars, Team Providence rode a game-high 15 points from Deja Ross and Danyel Gonzalez's 11 points, seven assists and four steals to a 47-25 blowout on May 11.
It followed with a 44-37 verdict over the Student Stars Club of Boston, thanks in part to Scituate High sophomore Sadie Ross' "double-double" (16 points, 10 boards) and Oliver's 15 points (12 from beyond the three-point arc).
The elder Gonzalez's crew then had to awake early on Mother's Day to face the Visionary Basketball Club of Hartford at 9 a.m., but Allen manufactured 16 points and four assists, while Cranston East sophomore Molly Phillips chipped in 10 points and six rebounds and the younger Gonzalez six points and five thefts in an easy 44-28 thumping.
At 11 a.m., they took on the Massachusetts Huskies of Waltham in a quarterfinal, earning a 53-38 victory; it came courtesy of Sadie Ross' 16 points and seven boards and Oliver's 16 points (15 via the trey), four assists and three steals.
The semifinal, however, didn't come easy; it never does against a team like the Boston Showstoppers. Officials ejected Danyel early in the opening half, and Team Providence sustained a 15-point deficit at the break.
"We went to full-court pressure in the second half, and Seun Shittu (a Saints' sophomore) had four of her (team-high) eight steals in it, despite battling shin splints," Bunky Gonzalez offered. "It was a tough, physical game, and Boston actually had two girls ejected for over-the-top fouls."
In the end, the guard/forward swing Sadie Ross finished with 16 points and eight boards while namesake (but no relation) Deja contributed 15 points.
After three games within a span of about six hours, 30 minutes, Team Providence battled the Ducks, and left the Hanover sports center with the three-point victory.
Oliver recorded 14 points, four assists and three steals, while Deja Ross managed 12 points, including the game-winning trifecta with 25 ticks left in regulation.
"We did have an unsung hero in that game, and it was a young girl from Moses Brown," Gonzalez said. "Belle Channell is a freshman from Warwick, and she hit two crucial free throws with about three minutes remaining. That tied it up at 33-33, and they swung the momentum our way.
"Those two teams – the Showstoppers and the Ducks – compete on the national level year-in and year-out, and they're both really good, but we found a way to (tame) both of them," he continued. "Going into the semifinal, the girls had given it everything they had. It was their third game in about five hours.
"I thought they'd run out of gas, and that if either of them had taken a big lead, it would've been over. We were down (to the Ducks) by eight or nine in the first half, but the girls kept plugging, pulled together and went on a run.
"They've worked so hard for this; they deserve to go to Orlando. They really want to fly down there and show everyone what they're made of."
Gonzalez indicated Team Providence will face some of the 40 best teams in the country in their age grouping (Under-15 Division II).
"They'll bracket it out just like they do for the NCAA (Tournament)," he said. "We'll be in a pool, probably of 10 teams, and then it will filter into bracket play. They're so excited. They can't wait."
With a laugh, he added, "Are we desperate for funds? You bet! We're out just about every day trying to get there, but any help will be more than appreciated."
Anyone wishing to donate to the squad's cause (it's definitely a tax deduction) may do by sending
a check of any amount to Team Providence Athletics, P.O. Box 5845, Providence, R.I. 02903 or by calling Coach Gonzalez at (401) 413-5202.

In lieu of Veterans Day weekend coming up, UCF prepares to dedicate one of its new buildings on campus that houses Classroom II and the headquarters for the ROTC program.
The dedication will take place on Friday at 4 p.m. and last until 5:30 p.m.
The building is three stories and is situated right next to Memory Mall. The UCF Air Force and Army ROTC programs anticipate moving into their part of the building, operating out of a small area on campus near the Recreation and Wellness Center.
Their facility features a 40-by-40-foot room called the "Virtual Battlelab," which is an open area with a variety of computerized simulators. On the first floor, there will be a "Heritage Hall," which will provide students with a quiet place to study and showcase ROTC and military heritage. All the other floors in the building will be home to offices, conference rooms, study areas and storage.
The new building is also located within walking distance to the Veterans Commemorative Site and the Veterans Academic Resource Center.
G.I. Jobs magazine ranked UCF, in September 2013, as a "military friendly school" -- a school or institution that best supports student veterans and offer them outstanding education and a welcoming atmosphere.

Tried the game up to level 15, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to run it on this low-medium end laptop but surprise surprise, it's actually nicely optimized. Got pretty decent FPS on populated areas without sacrificing graphic quality too much. I know that might not be an important feature for most people but it means the game won't be excluding people with crappy computers. So that's a point in their favor.
Quality-wise? Yeah, I can see why it would be a P2P game. Can't say I was blown away by it, but pretty much every aspect of it was very polished. Combat was smooth, not particularly exciting, but smooth.
I'm somewhat dissapointed with the character creation system though. I had the feeling it would be more complex. As a Nuian it felt like all the eyes/face options were pretty similar. The variety of hairstyels was pretty scarce too. And it doesn't even let you change your height or body shape. Meh. I know the KR version probably has more options for everything, though.
I'm sorry for all of you guys now that are playing the game in its current state. I'm glad and sad that I paid for the highest founder pack, I know how good the game was/could be but alot of these changes have really destroyed the game from what it used to be.
I'm a fee weeks into this patch now, and I can barely find the effort to log in anymore. In alpha areas are barren now the trade pack turn in changes ****ed over pirates and guild group turn ins. The material drop rate change is abysmal and caused mass inflation. The over all nerd to how the arena and labor change differences are just awful.
I'm not even sure I'm going to play into release unless a great deal of change is made.
Also to the ones who think reaper is op, get auramancy congrats you are now unkillable
I did play with them for a bit but in certain cases the changes were hardly noticeable. I mean, I'm glad it doesn't allow for ridiculous porportions like Aion's system but still. I was going for the slender, twink-like mage, but it just doesn't make sense with the default body shape.
Loving the game right now, i hope some things get better (LP points killing f2p players), but out of that ive loved it.
This is not because of beta but the game feels incomplete and at the same time good in a certain way...
So, any news about...
1. Next closed Beta event ?
2. State of the game; ie. bots and exploit and countermeasures ? Also, game content, features, etc ?

Shhh…only read if you won't tell your kids…
I'm on a mission to get kids moving, active and staying as fit as possible throughout life. I know I am not single handedly going to accomplish this goal. I know there are initiatives all over the country honing in on this same effort. I also know that childhood obesity has more than tripled in the past 30 years, and that children and adolescents who are overweight and inactive are likely to be overweight and inactive as adults.
And one more thing I know; when people of any age find something fun to get them moving, they stay moving. I've blogged about that before, but it's true for kids as well. A recent study from University of Leeds in England shows that for inactive teenagers, emphasizing the emotional, feel-good benefits of exercise is a more effective way to encourage exercise than highlighting traditional health benefits. We all know the health benefits of exercise and that's not always enough motivation for us or our children.
And that brings me to dance. Kids love it! Whether it's jazz, tap, Bollywood, or hip hop, kids hear the music and their bodies start to move. This week I walked by the Disney Kids workshop and had to smile at the room full of girls dancing to their Disney favorites. I watched children and their parents moving to a Bollywood beat in Kids Dance Around the World. Three things in common; everyone was moving to great music, everyone was smiling and having fun, and everyone was getting a 45-60 minute workout without even knowing it.
Muscles moving, heart rate up; dance is an excellent all-round way to get a workout, get fit and remain healthy. Dance builds stamina, flexibility, strength and co-ordination. It helps children develop good posture. Dance uses both sides of the brain: one half for technique and control and the other for creativity and artistry. It increases brain productivity and attention span.
As if we need more reasons to get kids dancing; I see the fun they are having and know that the feel-good factor and fun will create a positive attitude towards staying active. Some day I hope I can say, "mission accomplished".
So there you have it; dance is good for you and your kids. But help me keep it a secret! If your children think it's good for them…well, do they eat their vegetables?
Looking for opportunities for you and your children to get active and have fun through dance? We have an answer for that! Come dance!

Try the rescue option again. On the rescue screens, as it is booting up, it teels you how to do a chroot. Read the instructions, and post back if you have trouble doing it.
Actually i'm not going to give up. I got your IM trickster. Where do you want to start first?? I'm thinking about trying to use the Windows bootloader but i don't know how. Please reply back. Thanks trickster.
Try the rescue option again. On the rescue screens, as it is booting up, it teels you how to do a chroot. Read the instructions, and post back if you have trouble doing it.
No it does not tell me how to do a chroot. I read the instructions on screen more then once. Please reply back.
Why can't i do a chroot?? I really would like to know. Please reply back. Thanks.
You need to take your time and read what it says when you are getting into rescue mode.
justlinux.com gave me step by step instructions and it worked.
1. Boot your machine from your boot media (cdrom1) and select linux rescue to install to the command prompt.
2. Redhat 8.0 displays a message If you would like to make your system the root environment, run the command: chroot /mnt/sysimage.
Go ahead and do that.
If you are running a different distro or you dont get that message, you can proceed as follows.
· Run mkdir /mnt/sysimage and mount it with mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/sysimage.
Note: hda1 is where the linux system is located, yours may be different.
· Now run chroot /mnt/sysimage to make your system the root environment.
Type the command: rdev to find out what partition your root is on.
3. Get into the grub configuration utility with the command: grub.
· At the prompt grub> type the command: root (hd0,1) ; this will tell grub that the linux files it needs are in the second partition (1) of your first hard disk (hd0). Change this to meet your configuration needs. For instance, if the linux files are on the first partition (0) of the second hard disk (hd1), then type root (hd1,0).
· If you selected the correct location (where linux is installed), you should see a message as follows.... Filesystem type is Ext2fs, partition type is 0x83.
· Then issue the following command: setup (hd0) ; this will install grub in the MBR of your first hard disk. You could change that to use the /boot partition if desired.
· Exit the grub utility with the command: quit
You can also try to use grub-install /dev/hda to install grub on your first hard drive's MBR, but the method described above is the preferred one.

Top 5 Reasons to Get a New Credit Card
Read more about Best Credit Cards
You don't like change. It's in your nature. You figure any new deal — especially a credit card deal — must have a catch.
But here's the thing: credit card companies do have promising — and real — deals to offer newcomers. It's their way of winning you over. You still need to consider the full details (e.g.: what's the APR after that intro period is over? Will you have to pay an annual fee?), but if you get up to speed on what's available, you can benefit in the long run by signing up for a new credit card. We give you the five reasons why below.
The Top 5 Reasons to Get a New Credit Card
1. You want better rewards
If your current cards don't offer many (or any) cash back rewards or deals on travel, you may be bypassing significant savings. The same holds true if you have a card with rewards that don't match your current lifestyle - e.g., the card offers 2% back only on purchases at hotels but you rarely travel.
Remember, rewards cards carry higher interest rates, so they aren't ideal for people who carry balances. Rewards are a great option for people who plan to pay in full each month. If you plan to carry a balance, consider a low interest credit card instead.
The Discover it Miles is a travel rewards credit card with no annual fee. You earn 1.5x miles on every dollar you spend on purchases and there are no foreign transaction fees.
Plus, at the end of your first year, Discover doubles all the miles you've earned. You can redeem the miles in any amount toward travel purchases on your statement (100 miles = $1 value).
Imagine your next vacation if you can earn 1.5x miles. To learn more, visit Discover's secure online website.
Plus, if you make $500 in purchases in your first 3 months from account opening, you'll earn a $100 bonus with the Chase Freedom. What would you do with $100? To apply now, visit Chase's secure online website.
But that's not all, the Freedom card also has a 0% intro APR for 15 months on purchases and balance transfers. After the intro period, a variable APR of 13.99%-22.99% depending on your creditworthiness.
2. You want to save money with an introductory 0% APR
These days, it's possible to find a credit card offering a long 0% introductory APR on balance transfers. Done correctly, transferring balances from your existing credit cards to a credit card with a 0% introductory APR is a great way to save money.
Chase Slate offers a 0% intro APR for 15 months on purchases and balance transfers along with an introductory no balance transfer fee offer (on transfers within the first 60 days from account opening). After the introductory period, the variable APR will be 12.99%, 17.99%, or 22.99%, depending on your creditworthiness. There is no annual fee.
3. You want a low interest rate
Chances are, the credit cards you got when you were younger, poorer, and had a less-established credit history aren't giving you the best interest rates and credit limits. If so, it's time to "play the field." As long as you have a good score, apply for a card with a lower APR.
The Barclaycard Ring offers a low 8% variable APR on balance transfers and purchases, making it one of the best low interest credit cards on CreditDonkey. You can choose your card benefits and features. Plus, through the Giveback program, Barclaycard Ring members get money back for good performance. And there is no annual fee.
4. You want to improve your credit score
Because your credit score is determined, in part, by the amount of credit card debt you carry compared with your credit card limits (the "credit utilization ratio"), getting a new card can help improve your credit score in the long run. For example, if you currently have a balance of $5,000 on a card with a $7,500 credit limit, your credit utilization ratio is nearly 67%, which is considered high. By signing up for a new card, that ratio will drop.
The Barclaycard Rewards MasterCard lets you earn rewards (2x cash back rewards on purchases for gas, groceries and utilities and 1x cash back rewards on all other purchases) and helps you build credit. It reports to all three major credit bureaus and offers complimentary FICO scores as a benefit to active card members. There is no annual fee.
Plus, you usually just need fair credit to qualify for the Barclaycard Rewards. If you have bad credit, consider a secured credit card instead.
5. You want a fair credit card
If your old credit card changes its terms, policies, fee structures, or rewards program more often than you change your socks, it may be time to find a better match. For example, if you occasionally need to carry a balance, but the card keeps raising the interest rates, you may be able to find a more suitable "partner" elsewhere.
If you're a mature adult with a good job and a good credit score, it probably makes no sense to stick with the card you got when you were a struggling college student with no credit history. You'll probably qualify for a new credit card with a lower APR, better rewards, and more perks. Sometimes the best way to manage your credit is to get a divorce and find a new credit card.

PM Gift Guide: The Tech & Toys They Want This Year
If you have deep pockets, you cannot do better than a Lista workstation. Lista offers a dizzying array of workstations and accessories that you can combine to create the perfect solution for your needs.
You can also create a very satisfying and efficient project station on your own. DIY solutions are easier on the wallet, and they often allow for easier growth and expansion. My current workstation is built from parts found at the local IKEA, including four adjustable-height legs and a solid wood countertop.
Keep in mind that solid wood allows for easier and stronger accessory installation than engineered materials. However, though sturdiness is important, an electronics workstation need not be as robust as your heavy-duty garage workbench. Just remember that it's best if the top surface is a nonconductive material such as wood or plastic.
The Web is chock-full of resources if you're looking for inspiration. Our favorites include EEVblog Bench, DIY Wire Spool Rack, and Mobile Electronics Workbench.
I started out using a standing-height workstation, which increased productivity. But you cannot stand all the time. In a Goldilocks-like selection process, I tried all types of seating products. "Garage" and workbench chairs felt too rigid, drafting chairs didn't adjust enough, and work stools lacked back support, leaving me stiff and achy. That's when I gave up and went looking for the most supportive, ergonomic, and comfortable industrial and laboratory chair out there.
So, for the past few months we've been testing out Bevco's USA-made 7000VS ventilated polyurethane chair. The holes allow the chair to breathe better during long work sessions, and full adjustability means optimal ergonomics are just a press of a knob away. The 7000VS's polyurethane seat and back are soft and springy with a reasonable amount of give. As a bonus, assembly took less than 5 minutes, including unboxing.
Our picks are the 7551VS and 9551L. Prices start at about $130 for the value-line chairs. If you have a favorite work chair to recommend, let us know in the comments.

- How to Read a Study Record
Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT, also known as Osler-Weber-Rendu Syndrome) is an disease that leads to the development of dilated and fragile blood vessels. We propose to take blood samples from patients with HHT, and culture white blood cells that express the proteins mutated in HHT, namely endoglin and ALK-1. We will study the properties of these cells which will involve their growth in media prompting different types of differentiation, or infection of cell lines with Epstein Barr virus to provide cell lines which can be repeatedly studied. It is anticipated that DNA, mRNA and proteins will be extracted from these cells for study of white cell responses and association with expression levels of endoglin and ALK-1 We hypothesize that these cells which express "half-normal" endoglin or ALK-1 will show altered protein synthetic differences when compared to normal white blood cells. We anticipate that that these findings may help to explain aspects of the HHT disease phenotype.

Heya, my main is Boi Choi, ranger.
Currently trying to do my last 5 HM dungeons to complete my HM Dungeon Book in order to max my Master of the North and Deldrimor titles.
My other characters (I have one for each profession) are in various stages throughout the three campaigns, so if I'm free (or resting from title-chasing) I may be able to lend a hand and meet new in-game friends.
Just say you're from ONRPG when you introduce yourself

Dolph Lundgren's motion picture debut came in the 1985 James Bond feature A VIEW TO A KILL. 'I'm on screen for no more than ten seconds, if you blink you miss me...'. But, it was Dolph's performance in ROCKY IV later that year that got him noticed worldwide.

In the 90's Lundgren also turned in some memorable performances as the main villain to other action stars, most notably in UNIVERSAL SOLDIER opposite Jean Claude Van Damme, directed by Roland Emmerich & "JOHNNY MNEMONIC opposite Keanu Reeves. Dolph made the move behind the camera to become a director six years ago. Since then, Dolph has directed five feature films.

Additional Information
About Urwego Opportunity Bank of Rwanda (UOB)Urwego is a Rwandan bank specializing in microfinance. It offers credit products to individuals and groups interested in starting or expanding their businesses. It also offers training in business development, financial literacy and health management. Given that approximately 90% of the Rwandan population is directly or indirectly related to the agricultural sector, Kiva lenders' funds will be used to support UOB's agricultural loan products, which are vital to the clients living in remote areas.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Here's last night's SportsNite package, about you know what – the clip includes sound from Rex Ryan, Tim Tebow, Mark Sanchez, Sione Pouha, and Nick Mangold.
GSN: Jets Drama – 11/14/12
I love the hundreds of beat writers, announcers and all media talking about the problems the Giants have on their offensive line....These concerns and comments coming from people who have never played the game at a high level and some who have and think they have a crystal ball.
"Loudmouths Adam Schein and Chris Carlin discuss the problems facing the Giants' offensive line in their Week 1 matchup against the Detroit Lions."
How do any of you media guru's know if the Giants have problems with the offensive line?....I get sick and tired of reading and hearing about the problems the Giants are facing when a real game hasn't even been played yet. Write about the results not the unknown.
An injury to the group's most prestigious player – LG Geoff Schwartz –
This is a sentence that makes my stomach churn as a fan. Beyond the O-line, the Giants are sorely lacking in stars. I fully get it is a team sport, but I'd certainly like to know going in we have a few pro-bowlers on the team.
@hashburry When do the NYG ever have a lot of pro-bowlers. In the 2007 and 2011 SB years, they sent like 1 or 2 guys to the pro-bowl. Having a lot of stars is not how the Giants roll. They never have. When they win, it's because they get hot as a team.

Acadia National Park has a rich human history that includes Native Americans, European settlers, artists, conservationists, and more. Each group has made its mark on what is today Acadia National Park. Explore this section to discover the people and stories of Acadia.
Big Bend National Park is a land of borders. Situated on the boundary with Mexico along the Rio Grande, it is a place where countries and cultures meet. It is also a place that merges natural environments, from desert to mountains. It is a place where south meets north and east meets west, creating a great diversity of plants and animals. The park covers over 801,000 acres of west Texas in the place where the Rio Grande makes a sharp turn - the Big Bend. Authorized June 20, 1935; established June 12, 1944. Designated a United States Biosphere Reserve, 1976.
Denali's dynamic glaciated landscape supports a diversity of wildlife with grizzly bears, caribou, wolves, Dall sheep and moose. Summer slopes are graced with birds and wildflowers. Visitors enjoy sightseeing, backpacking, mountaineering, and research opportunities. Whether climbing or admiring, the crowning jewel of North America's highest peak is the awe inspiring 20,320 foot Mount McKinley.
The power of glaciers is evident throughout this view of Mt. Wilbur and Swiftcurrent Lake. Imagine giant tongues of ice, filling the valleys on either side of the peak and then joining together where the lake sits today. Bowl shaped amphitheaters (called cirques) sit at the heads of the valleys, the results of thousands of years of quarrying by ice. The cirque right behind Mt. Wilbur holds Iceberg Lake, one of the most popular destinations in the park.
Grand Canyon National Park - Yavapai Point
Located entirely in northern Arizona, the park encompasses 277 miles of the Colorado River and adjacent uplands. One of the most spectacular examples of erosion anywhere in the world, Grand Canyon is unmatched in the incomparable vistas it offers to visitors on the rim. Grand Canyon National Park is a World Heritage Site.
Great Sand Dunes National Park
The tallest dunes in North America rise at the base of the rugged Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Alpine tundra, forests, massive dunes, grasslands, and wetlands are all protected as elements of the Great Sand Dunes geological system.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Ridge upon ridge of endless forest straddling the border between North Carolina and Tennessee, Great Smoky Mountains National Park is one of the largest protected areas in the Eastern United States. World renowned for the diversity of its plant and animal life, the beauty of its ancient mountains, the quality of its remnants of Southern Appalachian mountain culture, and the depth and integrity of its wilderness sanctuary, the park attracts over nine million visitors each year.
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park, displays the results of 70 million years of volcanism, migration, and evolution — processes that thrust a bare land from the sea and clothed it with unique ecosystems, and a distinct human culture. The park highlights two of the world's most active volcanoes, and offers insights on the birth of the Hawaiian Islands and views of dramatic volcanic landscapes.
Joshua Tree National Park is immense, nearly 800,000 acres, and infinitely variable. Two deserts, two large ecosystems whose characteristics are determined primarily by elevation, come together at Joshua Tree National Park. Below 3,000 feet, the Colorado Desert encompasses the eastern part of the park and features natural gardens of creosote bush, ocotillo, and cholla cactus. The higher, moister, and slightly cooler Mojave Desert is the special habitat of the Joshua tree.
Mammoth Cave National Park was established to preserve the cave system, including Mammoth Cave, the scenic river valleys of the Green and Nolin rivers, and a section of south central Kentucky. This is the longest recorded cave system in the world with more than 360 miles explored and mapped.
The Mammoth WebCam shows a real-time still picture of Mammoth Hot Springs as viewed from the second floor of the Albright Visitor Center. You are looking over the visitor center parking lot, across a lawn area that was once used as a drill field by the U.S. Cavalry stationed at Fort Yellowstone. Beyond the fenced area, that warns visitors of a location where the surface limestone has collapsed creating a large hole, appear the white travertine deposits of the Mammoth Hot Spring Terraces. Occasionally the camera will not be aimed at the scene described above, but rather at some elk or another subject of interest in the Mammoth area.
Mount Rainier National Park was established on March 2, 1899, and encompasses 235,625 acres, ranging in elevation from 1,610' to 14,410' above sea level. The "mountain" is an active volcano encased in over 35 square miles of snow and ice, surrounded by old growth forest and stunning wildflower meadows. The park is also rich in cultural resources and was designated a National Historic Landmark District as an outstanding example of early park planning and NPS rustic architecture.
Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument - Washington
Before its violent eruption in 1980, Mount St. Helens was known as "the Fuji of America" because its symmetrical beauty was similar to that of the famous Japanese volcano. The graceful cone top, whose glistening cap of perennial snow and ice dazzled the viewer, is now largely gone. On May 18, 1980, the missing mountaintop was transformed in a few hours into the extensive volcanic ash that blanketed much of the Northwestern United States and into various other deposits closer to the mountain. The U.S. Geological Survey monitors the site for volcanic activity.
Few fully know the intense and rugged beauty of the North Cascades - jagged peaks, deep valleys, cascading waterfalls and over 700 glaciers. North Cascades National Park Service Complex contains the heart of this mountainous region in three park units which are all managed as one and include North Cascades National Park, Ross Lake and Lake Chelan National Recreation Areas. Each area offers different experiences and contains wilderness.
The Old Faithful WebCam sends a new real-time photo of Old Faithful Geyser approximately every 30 seconds. Old Faithful is not the largest or most regular geyser in the park. It has become a popular destination because it erupts more frequently than any of the other big geysers. All times mentioned on this page are Mountain Time.
Glacier capped mountains, wild Pacific coast and magnificent stands of old-growth forests, including temperate rain forests -- at Olympic National Park, you can find all three. About 95% of the park is designated wilderness, which further protects these diverse and spectacular ecosystems. Olympic is also known for its biological diversity. Isolated for eons by glacial ice, and later the waters of Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the Olympic Peninsula has developed its own distinct array of plants and animals. Eight kinds of plants and 15 kinds of animals are found on the peninsula but no where else on Earth.
Point Reyes National Seashore contains unique elements of biological and historical interest in a spectacularly scenic panorama of thunderous ocean breakers, open grasslands, bushy hillsides and forested ridges. Native land mammals number about 37 species and marine mammals augment this total by another dozen species. The biological diversity stems from a favorable location in the middle of California and the natural occurrence of many distinct habitats.
Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Park
These parks are home to giants: immense mountains, deep canyons, and huge trees. Thanks to their huge elevational range, 1,500' to 14,491', they protect stunningly diverse habitats. The Generals Highway climbs over 5000 feet from chaparral and oak-studded foothills to the awe-inspiring sequoia groves. From there, trails lead to the high-alpine wilderness which makes up most of these parks. Beneath the surface lie over 200 fascinating caverns.
This view from the St. Mary Visitor Center looks southwest to Red Eagle Mountain, the largest peak in the middle of the picture. Below the mountains lies Saint Mary Lake. In the afternoon sunlight reflects off the surface of the lake, making it easier to see. Watch for elk, which are sometimes visible in the meadows near the road. If the picture looks particularly fuzzy with lines like in a television, it is due to wind. This part of the park is notoriously windy most of the year.
Theodore Roosevelt National Park
The colorful North Dakota badlands provides the scenic backdrop to the park which memorializes the 26th president for his enduring contributions to the conservation of our nation's resources. The park contains 70,448 acres divided among three units: South Unit, North Unit and the Elkhorn Ranch Unit. In the park you will find badlands, open prairie, hard wood draws, bison, prairie dogs and other wildlife, the Little Missouri River, and a past history that includes Theodore Roosevelt.
National Capital Parks-Central (NACC) is responsible for over 1,000 acres of the most significant natural and cultural resources in the United States. The sites of NACC are cherished symbols of our nation, known worldwide and depicted on everything from currency to the nightly news. Located in the core of the nation's capital, NACC administers, interprets, maintains and preserves the Washington Monument, the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, Ford's Theatre National Historic Site, Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, the Korean War Veterans Memorial, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitol to the White House, the National Mall, East and West Potomac Parks, Constitution Gardens, 60 statues, and numerous other historic sites, memorials, and parklands. NACC is responsible for significant maintenance and preservation support for the White House as well as the U.S. Navy Memorial.
Washington, DC - Cherry Blossom
The blooming of the cherry trees around the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C. has come to symbolize the natural beauty of our nation's capital city. Hundreds of thousands of visitors from across the nation and around the world come to the Nations Capital to witness the spectacle, hoping that the trees will be at the peak of bloom for the Cherry Blossom Festival, Washington, D.C.'s rite of spring.
List of all National Park Service Web Cameras
The National Park Service operates digital cameras at many parks to help educate the public on air quality issues. These cameras often show the effects of air pollution such as visibility impairment.

For all except the totally ignorant and naïve, the INTERPOL move would seem to be a case of inviting the vampire to guard the blood bank.
INTERPOL announced that Kaspersky Lab "will provide cyber intelligence with a view to Interpol's sharing it among its 190 member countries seeking to protect cyberspace and investigate cybercriminals".
The Moscow-based Kaspersky Lab is the creation of Yevgeny "Eugene" Kaspersky, the KGB-trained cryptologist who is now one of Russia's most famous business oligarchs. Kaspersky anti-virus software is now one of the most widely used computer security products.
"Transnational crime cannot be fought in isolation, and drawing on private sector expertise and support against cybercrime is essential. Fighting cybercrime requires that law enforcement at both the national and international levels works with the private sector, particularly its forward-thinking technological leaders such as Kaspersky Lab, in order to keep pace with today's cybercriminals," Ronald Noble, INTERPOL Secretary General, told journalists. Noble is a former Undersecretary for Enforcement of the United States Department of the Treasury under President Bill Clinton.
"The strong support for the INTERPOL Global Complex for Innovation expressed by Evgeny Kaspersky, the founder and CEO of Kaspersky Lab, will provide law enforcement in our 190 member countries with the expertise to generate actionable intelligence to protect cyberspace and to bring cybercriminals to justice," noted Noboru Nakatani, executive director of Global Complex for Innovation (IGCI), INTERPOL's new global cyber security department.
Mr. Kaspersky is obviously happy about the new partnership, something he has been campaigning for for several years. "We're taking an active part in investigating international cybercrime, providing our expertise, technology, and resources to law enforcement authorities of different countries of the world. Now the criminals will never be able to lay low in some distant country, hiding behind the physical borders", Kaspersky shared.
