Date: July 7, 2012
Event: Subway Jalapeno 250 (Race 16 of 33)
Series: NASCAR Nationwide Series
Location: Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway (2.5-mile superspeedway)
Start/Finish: 20th / 23rd (Running, completed 94 of 101 laps)
Winner: Kurt Busch of James Finch Racing (Chevrolet)
After a disappointing season start at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway in February, and a promising run at the Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway in April, the Kyle Busch Motorsports (KBM) team was ready to bring their restrictor-plate chassis back to the 2.5-mile high banks of Daytona. Showcasing progress made over the first half of the 2012 season, the No. 54 Monster Energy team displayed initial signs they were on target to contend for the win. After rallying from a miscue on pit road however, to run in the top five, involvement in a subsequent on-track accident caused too much car damage and lost lap time in the pits, which forced the anxious team owner-driver Kyle Busch to limp home in the 23rd position.
Similar to the scenario that played out in the season-opening race at the "World Center of Racing," the Busch brothers aligned as drafting partners early in Friday's 250-mile race. After Busch started from the 20th position, he hooked up with brother's No. 1 James Finch Racing car and by lap three the two were running fifth and sixth. The brothers tossed around the top part of the field with each taking the lead at different times, switching positions to minimize overheating engine conditions. Combined, the two drivers led nine times for 18 laps of the 100-lap feature. "Make sure Kurt stays low enough that they can't get under me," described Busch to his team, as he worked to salvage the lead with his brother.
The race was progressing as hoped when the first miscue of the night slowed the Toyota team's good run. On lap 42, just shy of the event's halfway point, crew chief Mike Beam instructed his driver to bring the No. 54 machine to pit road for four fresh tires and fuel. The slower than normal stop included a mistake, when a support crew member was unable to 'catch' a rear tire from rolling out of the pit box. Breaking NASCAR rules for team equipment leaving the pit box area, the No. 54 team was required to conduct a pass-through penalty, causing the young Busch to restart in the 29th position.
Busch made quick work of the penalty, gaining 21 positions in three laps, to eighth, and then re-engaging with the older Busch's No. 1 machine on lap 53. The duo ran top ten, making moves towards the lead, when on lap 65, the 'big one' occurred, involving both Busch brother machines. Pack racing at high speeds traditionally causes these types of accidents where multiple cars are damaged.
Under the yellow-caution flag for track cleanup, the No. 54 car pitted four times over the next five laps, desperately working to repair nose damage. Busch felt an unknown vibration and the crew worked hard to determine the source, while maintaining their position on the lead lap.
When the field went back to green however on lap 72, Busch knew something was wrong and immediately brought his black machine into the closest garage area for repairs. The team determined something was broken, but they couldn't visually determine the source. The chassis was riding ½ inch too low but the "tow" of the car was in place, and now there was a flat rear tire to examine. Feverishly moving equipment from their pit area to the garage, the Monster Energy crew tackled the damaged Camry. Seven laps were lost to the field, due to garage repairs, and the No. 54 made it back on track with 20 laps remaining in the event.
Now running in the 27th position, Busch's car was damaged, but still able to run fast lap times with the race leaders. The Monster Energy team athlete would gain a few more spots before race end, as the field experienced two more caution periods, including a green-white-checkered finish. Crossing the finish line 23rd Busch thought the drama of Daytona was over, only to be mistaken when one last incident occurred as the checkered-flag dropped. While cars scrambled to finalize their positions, the No. 3 car of Austin Dillon lost control in the path of Busch, who worked to avoid the unstable competitor, but could not miss the impact.
To add insult to injury, the KBM team loaded another destroyed race car from Daytona, squashing their hopes of victory yet again. Monster Energy team athlete Kurt Busch went on to achieve the win with his No. 1 team. The No. 54 crew looks to repair equipment now and will tackle the 'Super Bowl' of NASCAR again next February.
Busch recorded his fifth career Nationwide Series win and second of the season. Ricky Stenhouse Jr, Michael Annett, Dillon and Joey Logano completed the top-five finishers. There were five caution periods for 24 laps of the race along with 42 lead changes across 16 drivers.
After completing 16 starts, the No. 54 Monster Energy team remains eighth in the Owner's Point standings, 89 points from first.
The Nationwide Series continues action July 14 with the F.W. Webb 200 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon. The television broadcast will start at 2:30pm EST on ESPN and the PRN radio broadcast. Kyle Busch will return to defend his title in Loudon, NH with his ninth start of the season behind the wheel of the Kyle Busch Motorsports No. 54 Monster Energy Camry.

Pepper Jack Cheese Sticks Recipe
5 2
"If you see a group of people huddled around an appetizer table, it's probably because they're feasting on these fun snacks," writes field editor Darlene Brenden of Salem, Oregon. "The cornflakes give them a crisp coating, and the soft creamy center has just enough kick to liven up any party."
- 1 pound block pepper Jack cheese
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 3 cups crushed cornflakes
- Oil for deep-fat frying
- Salsa and guacamole
- Cut cheese into 2-3/4-in. x 1/2-in. sticks. Place the flour, eggs and cornflakes in three separate shallow bowls. Coat cheese sticks with flour; dip in egg, then roll in cornflakes until well coated. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Cook cheese sticks in batches for 30 seconds or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Let stand for 3-5 minutes. Serve with salsa and guacamole. Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.

Back in .NET 1.0 days I wrote a method to return the target of a shortcut on MS Windows. It did this through using an interop to the Windows Script Hosting Object Model and brute forced through the COM interface:
private FileInfo GetFileFromShortcut(FileInfo shortcut)
FileInfo targetFile = null;
IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShell wShell = new IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShellClass();
IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShortcut wShortcut = (IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShortcut)wShell.CreateShortcut(shortcut.FullName);
// if the file wasn't a shortcut then the TargetPath comes back empty
string targetName = wShortcut.TargetPath;
if (targetName.Length > 0)
targetFile = new FileInfo(targetName);
catch (Exception)
{ // will return a null targetFile if anything goes wrong
return targetFile;
This still bugs me, and I was looking to replace this with something more elegant, but only if the replacement actually works at least as well. I still can't find a native C# way of finding the target of a shortcut. Is there one, or is this still the best way of doing this type of thing?

Lol. Love the pun in the title and Kakashi's "where did it go?" face. I really think Gai and Lee would be totally against reading that and Shikamaru would be pretending not to be interested (he generally never looks interested in anything). So those characters throw me off. But I really like this.

Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
A busy day for Jim Hendry as he's now inked Chad Tracy to a minor league deal. He'll get a chance to compete for a bench spot in spring training.
Tracy hasn't played a full season since 2006 due to a number of maladies, including microfracture surgery on right knee in 2007. He's also had oblique, groin and back problems. You wonder if he can even play third base or the corner outfield positions anymore.
His OPS+ and wOBA numbers since 2004:
Nothing too exciting here, but it's a minor league deal and Tracy may be more than willing to go to Iowa if he doesn't make the team out of spring training to try and jumpstart his career back to life.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy

The MLB equivalent of an Orthopedic Annuity
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Worth a shot. I'm also on board with the Nady signing.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Iowa seldom gets to use a DH. Not sure where he fits with Hoffpauir and Marquez Smith on the corners?
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
My guess is if he doesn't make the cut in March, they don't really care where he goes.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Twins sign JI
JIM THOME to a deal, reportedly 1.5 plus incentives.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
I like this deal at least as much as the Nady deal. The upside is nearly the same.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
I'm actually mildly excited at these signings. Mildly. Good upsides with little money.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
cubs.com has this interesting medical tidbit on Tommy John surgery and Nady...
Nady would have to prove he's healthy from the second major elbow surgery of his career. He underwent the procedure in early July, meaning he will be just nine months removed from it by Opening Day. A number of Web sites have lists of baseball players who have gone through Tommy John surgery, a procedure in which a tendon from a different part of the body is used to replace a turn ulnar collateral ligament, but Nady and catcher Vance Wilson are the only position players listed as having the surgery twice.
Wilson had his procedures back-to-back in the summers of 2007 and '08. He signed a Minor League contract with the Royals for '09 and batted .270 in 59 games for Double-A Northwest Arkansas. Wilson didn't play his first game in '09 until June 19 and caught only 18 games, appearing mostly as a designated hitter.
here's the Wiki list of ballplayers with TJ surgery including those with repeat surgery. There are only three with three-peats...Chad Fox, Jose Rijo and the immortal Matt Riley

Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Scott Williamson had two TJS, too.
yes I noticed some of the lists were incomplete, I saw one where Tony Womack wasn't on it and realized the list probably needs a more thorough going over.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
If he makes the roster, who do you drop? Fontenot can't love this news.
Edit: And I'm already assuming Hoffpauir is gone from the 25-man with the Nady signing.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
I think that is correct. My guess on the 5 man bench is
Koyie Hill
Chad Tracy
Honestly, that is probably the best bench the cubs have had in a long long time.

Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Do you really think giving Scales a starters spot would keep Smith in AA and Vitters in A? Wouldn't it make more sense to push him to the bench in a role that he's more likely to play in the majors? Maybe someone (Denier?) can even teach him to play outfield before he gets recalled an Lou costs us more games by playing him out there.

NEAL: I keep going back & forth with Vitters. My present belief is that Vitters will begin the season in the middle of the Daytona lineup and will be asked to work harder on his defense, and then he will be in-line for a mid-season promotion to AA if all is going well. Same goes for Marquez Smith and Tony Thomas (mid-season promotions), I think.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
I thought Thomas and Smith were locks for Iowa.
Is Matt Camp really a legit prospect?

Is Matt Camp really a legit prospect?
DR AARON B: Tony Thomas and Marquez Smith could make the Iowa Opening Day roster, but it wouldn't be a surprise if they bgin the 2010 season back at AA and then get a mid-season promotion to AAA.
Matt Camp is a big league utility prospect, his best attribute being an ability to play 2B-CF-LF-PR-LHPH (he's sort of a Sam Fuld/Mike Fontenot hybrid) as well as SS-3B-RF in a pinch, which could allow the Cubs to keep Chad Tracy on the bench as their ace LHPH and 1B-3B back-up AND a player (Camp) who can be a legitimate back-up at both 2B and CF, a late-inning defensive replacement for Soriano in LF, and a PR or a LHPH leading off an inning. So Camp provides more versatility than Fuld or Fontenot, if extreme versatility becomes an issue.
That said, Camp does not have Fontenot's HR power or Fuld's plus-defensive skills and plate discipline, but he does have above-average speed, and he has improved his hitting over the past year (he hit 329/400/448 with 18 doubles in 59 games for Mexicali in the Mexican Pacific League). So Camp's chance to make it to MLB with the Cubs in 2010 probably would be tied to Piniella wanting to keep Chad Tracy on the roster as a 3B-1B-LHPH.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Thanks Phil. It wouldn't shock me if that comes to pass. Really Smith is the guy that has earned the promotion moreso that Vitters, unless you really buy into his abortive AFL season. If Smith is going to become a Randa/Pendelton type, I hate to see his progress retarded so we can give good soldier PA's to Scales.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
100% agreed Neal.
Especially since Smith is going to be 25 this year.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
That Daytona lineup could be vicious.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Yeah, that team would win a lot of games.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
imo, the cubs would probably be wise to trade either baker or fontenot if they choose to keep tracy.
they could make s.castro the "guy in waiting" who would/could(maybe) be the injury backup shuttling up/down majors/AAA if baker-or-fontenot/blanco get injured.
they seem to want to introduce castro to the majors in 2010, anyway.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Thanks for taking a stab at this, Phil. Very interesting to read and ponder. A lot of good young players climbing a few greasy poles.
A couple of quibbles:
Obviously I like Robinson C. better than C. Robinson.
Jay Jackson got a disciplinary demotion to high-A last season, but at the end of August he got a start at Iowa (and performed nicely). He finished at AAA, so it would be a demotion to start lower.
Wright and Smith had fine years for a near-champion at Tennessee. Their manager got a promotion, they will too.
Guyer was a little old for Daytona, but he hit .347 and will start for Tennessee, probably in left field, which Wright will have vacated.
Hak-Ju Lee should do what Castro did last year and skip Peoria; but there are too many middle infielders already at Daytona. Something has to be done at the ML level to free up positions lower down. I have several ideas about what may happen and should happen, but that's a different topic.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
I think, as of now, Fuld probably makes it ahead of Tracy. They need someone to backup in CF. Assuming Baker is the starter, I think Tracy's best bet is beating out Fontenot.
Tbh, I think the signing is a nice gamble, but I think it'll probably be similar to the Koskie signing in some respects.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Even if he doesn't get much playing time at 3B or 1B, Chad Tracy is one of the best left-handed pinch-hitters in baseball (276/364/621 and tied for second in MLB in PH HR in 2009, and 400/471/667 in 2008).
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
A good call. Trying to make a case for Dawson as a Cub is a case where evidence must be cherry-picked to support the conclusion.
He actually might have been better in '81 than '87, but thanks to the strike, Mike Schmidt and the the near-anonymity of Montreal, few ever noticed.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Terrible decision by the Hall of Fame. Gutwrenching. Dawson believes his years with the CUBS is what got him into the Hall. I think MAYBE he might just know what he's talking about.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
If Dawson had played in Montreal like he did in Chicago, he may not have even gotten to the second year of voting. If you go by WARP3 (or any other position based total statisic really)
Montreal: 43.7 Wins
Chicago: 18.1 Wins
Others: -2.2 Wins
There's no coherent argument to support Dawson as a Cub in the HoF, other than "I am a Cub fan and I want him to go in as a Cub."
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
The HOF is making the right choice. He played 10 seasons in Montreal, 6 in Chicago.
I'd have liked to have seen Dawson in his prime in Chicago.
Re: Cubs Sign Chad Tracy
Dawson into Hall as Expo

I agree with what you said, but isn't it so weird that the White Sox are not linked to Fowler? They seem like an ideal fit.
oddly...or not...fowler's been strongly linked to the O's lately.
Olmos takes another 40 man roster Roulette bullet. The new lefty will be gone when Fowler comes back.
seen him in the minors...rather boring lefty. really slow secondary stuff (very slow slider) and a fastball that barely hits 90 on a good day.
The Cubs have claimed C.J. Riefenhauser LHP on waivers from the Orioles. Edgar Olmos was again DFA.

Josh Shaw admits he lied, suspended indefinitely
And so it seems the Josh Shaw saga at USC has reached its conclusion.
The school announced Wednesday evening that Shaw admitted to athletic department officials that he fabricated his story about hurting his ankles while saving his nephew in a pool and he's been suspended indefinitely.
Shaw injured himself in a fall from a balcony, according to a statement he released through his attorney, Donald Etra. "There is no criminal aspect to this whatsoever," Etra told USA Today, and also said there was no alcohol involved in the incident.
"We are extremely disappointed in Josh," said USC coach Steve Sarkisian in a release. "He let us all down. As I have said, nothing in his background led us to doubt him when he told us of his injuries, nor did anything after our initial vetting of his story.
"I appreciate that Josh has now admitted that he lied and has apologized. Although this type of behavior is out of character for Josh, it is unacceptable. Honesty and integrity must be at the center of our program. I believe Josh will learn from this. I hope that he will not be defined by this incident, and that the Trojan Family will accept his apology and support him."
USC originally reported that Shaw had suffered his ankle injury while rescuing his nephew on Monday, but by Tuesday Sarkisian announced that the school had received calls contradicting Shaw's story and would be vetting the account. Earlier Wednesday Sarkisian said campus authorities were investigating the story.
Shaw released his own statement through his lawyer Wednesday night.
"On Saturday August 23, 2014, I injured myself in a fall," said Shaw. "I made up a story about this fall that was untrue. I was wrong not to tell the truth. I apologize to USC for my action on this part.
"My USC coaches, the USC athletic department, and especially coach Sarkisian have all been supportive of me during my college career and for that, I am very grateful."
USC opens its season against Fresno State on Saturday.

The Open Door In Philadelphia
8/18/2012 09:48:00 AM | Posted by Quentin Haynes | Edit Post
The Philadelphia 76ers made a smart move. After years of standing pat, the 76ers grabbed life by the horns and took a chance by trading longtime starter Andre Iguodala, for star center Andrew Bynum. The ceiling of the Andre Iguodala era in Philadelphia reached it's peak this past season, when Iguodala and Philadelphia took Boston to a seventh game in the eastern conference semifinals. On top of that, it seemed like Philadelphia saw this day coming in 2010, when the Sixers took Evan Turner with the second overall pick.
After an offseason of questionable moves (The drafting of Moe Harkless, the amnesty of Elton Brand, the Spencer Hawes extension) the Sixers completely turned their franchise around with the addition of Bynum. Now, the Sixers go from this team with no superior scorer, to one of the best low-post big men in the league. This allows Philadelphia to hunker down, and throw the ball into the post when things seem bleek, and I'm sure Bynum is ready for the challenge.
In Los Angeles, Andrew Bynum had ups and downs. From the rookie who Kobe Bryant wanted out, to the injured center, to a center on multiple championship teams, to the malcontent that seemed to be in the wrong position every time last season. It's puzzling when your best season of your career is clouded by poor judgment, but that's what Bynum had to deal with all last season. Again, last season was a great season for Bynum. Let's look at it like this:
- · 18.7 points, 11.8 rebounds, 1.9 blocks, 55% from the field
- · All-Star starter in the West
- · 24.20 Efficiency Rating (2nd among centers)
- · 23.01 PER Rating (2nd among centers)
While looking at those accolades and fancy numbers, and consider the fact he played with Kobe Bryant, who had 1000 more shots than any other player in the league, and Pau Gasol, who got his shot attempts as well. The 76ers also possess a young, talent point guard in Jrue Holiday, who compared to Derek Fisher and Ramon Sessions, should be able to find Bynum in various positions in the paint that could benefit him offensively. With Philadelphia, no one is stripping Bynum of shot attempts, and that could be a good or bad thing.
We're roughly ten weeks away from the regular season, so it's tough to envision Philadelphia's offense, but while we do know who's going to be the focal point, we don't know the secondary characters for Philadelphia. For the Sixers' sake, Evan Turner has to be the man to take charge. At six foot seven, Turner has all the tools to replace Andre Iguodala in terms of production, yet Philadelphia expects more from Turner, and it's unclear if he can do that.
If Turner can do that, he and Jrue Holiday, could jump right into the middle of the pack in terms of the "best backcourts" in the league. Both players certainly have the defensive potential to shackle up older backcourts, but they also have size and speed to contend with the young backcourts. Even the potential issue of Philadelphia (who's going to better off the ball) is slightly figured out, thanks to Jrue Holiday's 38% from three-point range last season.
What we do know about Philadelphia's offense is the 76ers will be a better shooting team. After years and years of poor mid range and outside shooting, Philadelphia added Nick Young (37% from three-point range in 2011-2012), Jason Richardson (36%), and Dorell Wright (36%). All three players are capable to play both shooting guard and small forward positions, thus providing multiple lineups with outside shooting, something Philadelphia has lacked since the early 2000's.
Philadelphia's role in this season is to be determined, and we still have a ton of question marks about the team, but the top seems solidified. If the younger talents breakthrough, and the Turner/Holiday backcourt become dangerous, the Sixers will have an interesting top three, and probably a top four seed in the East. If the Holiday/Turner dynamic has a rocky road, and/or Bynum doesn't live to the expectations of a number one player, the Sixers could still reach the playoffs, but severely disappoint in the regular season.

Lance Armstrong has agreed to a rare televised interview with Oprah Winfrey that will air next week.
According to a release posted on Oprah's website on Tuesday, Armstrong will address allegations that he used performance-enhancing drugs during his cycling career.
Armstrong has strongly denied the doping charges that led to him being stripped of his seven Tour de France titles, but The New York Times reported Friday he has told associates he is considering admitting the use of PEDS.
The newspaper report cited anonymous sources, and Armstrong attorney Tim Herman told The Associated Press that night that he had no knowledge of Armstrong considering a confession.
Oprah's interview with Armstrong will air on Jan. 17.

Anti-Gun Forces Hang Tough Latest Wrestle in Congress over Assault Weapons Shows Persistence of Gun Issue
John Dillin, writer of The Christian Science Monitor, The Christian Science Monitor
WHEN President Clinton demanded a ban on assault weapons this week, he cited the case of Wisconsin police Capt. James Lutz, gunned down by an M1-A1 rifle after a bank robbery.
"When the House of Representatives votes {on a ban Thursday}, they shouldn't forget the tragedy {of Captain Lutz}," Mr. Clinton told a White House audience.
There is just one problem: The M1-A1, a semi-automatic rifle, is not prohibited by the proposed law supported by the president.
Contradictions like that prompted actor Charlton Heston, a spokesman for the National Rifle Association, to accuse proponents this week of "deception" and "deliberate misstatement of reality."
Mr. Heston told a Capitol Hill press conference that none of the leading advocates of a ban - "not the White House, not the president, not Sen. {Dianne} Feinstein, are speaking the truth."
Rep. Charles Schumer (D) of New York, the foremost House champion of the ban, counters that the NRA and its supporters are waging a campaign based on "scaring people" about "what might come down the road" - such as a ban on all privately owned guns. Close vote
With emotions high, today's scheduled House vote is expected to be close. Earlier, the Senate, by a margin of 56-to-43, accepted the so-called Feinstein amendment to prohibit the sale of 19 "assault weapons."
The argument between the two sides will hardly be settled by the House decision, however. The effort to ban weapons in the hands of American citizens is gaining momentum, and seems unlikely to end here.
Clinton, Schumer, Feinstein & Co. say that America has turned into an urban battlefield where teenagers roam the streets with military-type weapons and murder innocent citizens.
Schumer admits that the weapons he would ban are responsible for less than 1 percent of the nation's killings. But Police Chief David Steingraber of Menomonee Falls, Wis., a friend of the late Captain Lutz, argues:
"I'm not impressed by statistics which say {assault} weapons like this aren't {widely} used in crime. If they are not, they will be."
On the other side, Heston & Co. say the freedom to own a weapon for purposes of self-defense, hunting, or recreation is enshrined in the US Constitution's Second Amendment. It is a basic civil right that the White House seems ready to put aside, they say.
Rep. Duncan Hunter (R) of California, who opposes the ban, cites a study by Gary Kleck ("Point Blank: Guns and Violence in America") to support his decision. The study concludes that on average, approximately 2,000 persons per day in America use guns for defensive purposes, mostly in their homes or businesses.
Representative Hunter says that when Clinton focuses on weapons instead of criminals, he overlooks the real cause of crime. …

At just over a day old the unnamed foal, whose gender is still not known, is still trying to figure out how to use its long, wobbly legs and rarely ventures more than a few feet away from its mother, Crestone. Guests can see mom and foal with the entire herd in the yard now.

Scanning the system for trouble codes is the first step. Hard to believe $1500 is related to this issue. Did a shop perform the repairs and what parts were replaced?

More violence than sex assuredly, but Mortal Kombat games have always featured scantily clad and large bosomed women since the beginning of the franchise.

Ok ladies I am NOT excited im just feeling optimistic!! I had promised my hubby I wouldn't test til 4/15.. well my period is due March 30 and my curiosity got the best of me this afternoon My opk looks very dark close to what could be the beginning of a positive.. so I said what the hey I tested! Well hubby bought these test a month ago and they were blue dye! And I know they are evil but that's all we had.. Well I tested 2 of them and both came out positive. Within 2-5 min range.. . But Im worried because I was sure I was out this month my temp dropped this morning and no signs at all like in the past pregnancy's. I am thinking it could be a false positive because I know how those blue tests can be! BUT here is the thing I took one like 3 days for the hell of it and it was a CLEAR negative.. And they all came out the same box.. Now I am NOT going out to buy the pink dye (First response) until AFTER my period would be due..
BUT WHAT DO YOU ALL THINK??!? Do you think it could be a real positive???? Or just a false?
Im going to also ask the Tweek Board!

90 points Wine Spectator: "Plum, currant, briar, cedar and earth flavors give this brawny red a brooding character. The tannins are assertive, but berry and floral notes emerge on the finish. Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Mazuelo and Syrah. Best after 2010." (11/08) Whoa! This is a real deal in Priorat for those looking for The Real Thing. Here's a terrific look at what a more traditionally styled Priorat tastes like. Every bit as intensely flavored and full throttle as the modern guys (i.e. nearly everyone else), but with terrific minerality, elegance, and gutsy flavors adding a whole lot of interest. Produced from Grenache, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah that have been fermented separately and aged 12 months in used French and American oak, this delicious Priorat leads from the glass with black olive and black cherry aromas. On the palate, pure blackberry and dark plum fruits show terrific slate minerality in the middle, with an amazing elegance given the richness and structure of the wine. At under $20 this is very compelling wine indeed.

Does Presario f767nr support AHCI?
I have a Compaq Presario F767nr and just installed a SSD (Samsung 840EVO). In order to optimize the drive, I need to enable AHCI, but(of course) bios setup does not option this, and Samsung Magician does not detect it. Does the MB / BIOS / Nvidia drivers even support AHCI? Bios is Phoenix F.0A, 3/22/2011.
Thank you for any help you can give me,
Re: Does Presario f767nr support AHCI?
Hi Bo,
Thank you for your query. I am glad to assist you.
I understand that you are trying to install, a ssd drive and it is not detected by the bios. Your system does not support SSD drivers. For your information I am including the HP G6000 Notebook PC and Compaq Presario F700 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide. Under hard drives, (page 40) you will see there are only 3 supported drives. I hope this has answered your question.
I work on behalf of HP
Re: Does Presario f767nr support AHCI?
Hello Sparkles1,
I appreciate your response and attempt to help me, but you misunderstood my question. I have already installed the SSD in the laptop. The BIOS acurately detected the drive. It is running Win 7 (x64). The system is compatable with any 2.5" SATA drive.
My question was this: Is the Presario F700 series (or specifically the F767NR) supportive of AHCI, or IDE only? I am trying to optimize the drive to get the most benifit, and in order to do that I need AHCI enabled, but the optimization software (Samsung Magician) can not detect AHCI. I know that most systems manufactured in 2008 did support AHCI, but maybe this one did not. Since the BIOS is locked, I can not get to an option to enable it, so I can not tell from that.
Thank you,
Re: Does Presario f767nr support AHCI?

With a sudden urge to revisit this space… which has been quiet, abandoned…
As of now, I am so looking forward to upcoming trips.
April – HK trip
May – Company Annual Retreat to BKK
June – J's Garage trip to BKK
Oct – Birthday treat to Phuket
As much as I hope that there are more trips to slot in for the rest of this year…
Months and weeks and days… I am catching up with his rapid growth. Indeed he is growing up so quickly that the guilt in me makes me feel lousy. I have not spent enough time with him. Wanted so much to be at home and be a SAHM, but yet couldn't bring myself to do that because of the many committments.
Having said so, I miss the babylike him… when he was so baby like, when he was so adorable in his toddler stage… with this missing, the thought of having number 3 came to my mind.
I guess I need to give some serious thoughts to this idea… How would I cough out the time for number 3, when today I don't even have enough time for my little precious?

The Department of Buildings just approved a permit for a residential conversion at 193 Plymouth Street, the Dumbo factory between Jay and Bridge streets. It looks like a conversion has been in the works since 2010, at least on the permitting front. Although permits are posted at the building, construction hasn't begun yet. The building, of of now, is in pretty rough shape. Calls last week to the owner for more details have not been returned. GMAP DOB

This is a very attractive building that will make for a great conversion. Unfortunately, it's also at a location that is likely to see a lot of construction for the coming years. Its neighbors are all one-story garages that will almost certainly be replaced by new development as the Dumbo boom continues. That means it will be noisy for the near future. You're also getting far east enough that the ConEd plant on the waterfront (which this building faces on the back side, on John St) blocks access to the water. Hopefully the city and ConEd will be able to work out a deal where ConEd relocates its plant to somewhere that doesn't take up valuable waterfront property (and the site is redeveloped into an extension of BBP or something similar), but that's not likely to happen for at least a few years.
What will happen to the artists that have lived in this building (and still do) since the 90's? This is actually pretty sad news, as this is the last 'real/artist' loft building I can think of in the neighborhood where working artists/musicians that helped shape Dumbo over the last 15 years still live (i.e. the people that ran Dumboluna in the early 2000's). Hopefully the loft law will give them some rights to stay in their spaces..
Are you sure anyone lives there? Two-thirds of the windows are boarded up…
this isn't soho.

Shootings in Philadelphia left two people dead, one paralyzed and five others wounded Tuesday night.
The shootings happened across the city on the unusually warm evening and are not thought to be related.
The first incident happened on a crowded Kensington street at about 6 p.m., when a woman was killed and three men were hurt near Somerset and Lee streets.
The 20-year-old woman was shot twice in the torso and taken to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead. The three men were hospitalized in stable condition.

eekk...rather get a PCP and take along a pump
I am planning a camping trip and would like to bring a air rifle along to bag something for the pot. I can't really shoot a springer well and don't want to bring a a scuba tank along. I am thinking of getting a multi-stroke pump (I used my toy pump master once but i had to get within 10m for a clean kill, might as well use a springer) and am looking into buying a Cannon 737. Has anyone used one? How good is it? does the brass barrel last?
eekk...rather get a PCP and take along a pump
Top 10 reasons why I procrastinate: -1
The Cannon 737 is based on the old Sharp Innova, which was a highly respected air rifle. Lightweight, compact, recoilless and accurate with no reliance on external power sources.
I bought one from Hennie's shop off Zambesi Drive in Pta back in May as a present for my host's son, it struck me as a well made copy capable of decent level of accuracy. the brass barrel should be fine, Benjamin/Sheradin use brass and bronze barrels to good effect on their rifles.
Give it two pumps and it was fine for plinking, put 10 pumps in and it has quite a belt for hunting. If you don't plan on firing huge numbers of shots then it will be fine. A good little rifle for the price (about R1000), add a small scope and mounts and it will be a nice little 'camp' gun.
A wise man has something to say, a fool has to say something.
Gerry's got one.........i've had a few shots with it........exactly as Dale described above. it should make a nice 'camp' gun.
personally i would rather get a pcp pump........no need to find a new scope/learn the characteristics of the rifle/find the right pellet/learn the trajectory........etc b4 it's ready for the field.
AA EV2 MK1 / AA S400 GinB .177 / Daystate MK4iS-ST .20
So instead of pump it 10 times/shot I pump it 800 times to get to 180bar...... Ouch.
So the Cannon 737 is OK then? One reason I don't want to bring my PCP/CO2 rifles is that they are too bulky with scope (one has a 10-40x50 and the others 12X44AO and I don't feel like taking them off) and the mag is too high. I was thinking of getting a Cannon or crosman 2100 and mount a 4X32 for hunting out to 30m plus lots of plinking with my climbing mates (who I trust with my life but not my PCP).
rather get a cheap springer..a BSA lightning perhaps..
Top 10 reasons why I procrastinate: -1
If I had a choice between the Cannon 737 and a Lightning ............. hmmm........ I would go with the Cannon - my experiences with Lightnings to date is not favourable (and they aren't 'cheap', now if we were talking an HW99S then that would be a different matter, but the HW would be way more expensive.
Comparing Cannon to the Crosman - the 737 is way better, fitted with a little 4x32 I think it would be spot on for what you have in mind. For the occasional hunting shot give it 8-10 pumps, for plinking 2-3 pumps is perfect and requires very little effort. To give you some idea the one I bought was a birthday present for my friend Nic Roets's 7yr old son who was able to easily put in 3 pumps!
A wise man has something to say, a fool has to say something.
Springer crossed my mind but I think it is easier for my buddies to make a clean kill with a pump up than a springer (otherwise I could just take my cheap B-2 and make them suffer). So Guido, why are you against the pump ups, it that anything I should know?
BTW 1 other reason againtst PCPpump is that my climbing mate have never touched a PCP and that means I will be the only one doing the pumping.......
Just how much is a BSA lighting anyway?
Hi Dale,
There is another little champion in the making. I saw him shoot a pistol and rifle at Brits with his dad and mom.
Take note! A man's being is not judged by the size of his possessions.
"The best relationship is not the one that brings together perfect people, but when each individual learns to live with the imperfections of others and can admire the other person's good qualities"
How about a nice HW40 pistol ? Very packable.
Just keep your shots inside 15M.
Top 10 reasons why I procrastinate: -1
Personally I don't see there is any problem with a decent quality pump rifle, provided you are not needing to take a large number of higher power shots in quick succession.
When I talk about a quality pump up rifle I would mean the Sharps/Sheridan (also Benjamin if still available) rifles - the current Crosman and Daisy rifles are mostly cheap plinkers nothing more.
As the Cannon is a copy of a good design and is pretty well made I would rate it as a good little rifle, no it is not the equal of an S400, but then it is not designed to be.
Gerrie, I agree in respect of little Nic, give him a few years and I reckon he will be very good.
A wise man has something to say, a fool has to say something.
My Cannon is a great plinker , not pile driving accuracy , not the greatest trigger , but for all round fun its great .
Not much point of impact variation between 3 & 6 pumps up to
20 metres . So if you're fooling about in the back yard , 3 pumps is all you need .
It takes a fair bit of strength to get it up to 8 pumps & you'll only do it once or twice in an arvey . Problem is your arm muscles take so much punishment , you gotta wait for the muscles to stop shaking before your high power shot .
Then I wonder if it was my arms that caused the lack of accuracy or the extreme speed of the pellet .
All in all I like mine , but its never going to be a replacement for my S 400 .
I got it to carry in the bakkie behind the seat , so I could do my vermin eradication thing while out & about at pump stations ( taking out indian mynas )
However , due to my imminent move to UK , I dont believe I can bulldust the authorities into believing that I'll never get it above the 12 f/lb limit , ( without serious arm shake ) so it'll have to remain behind in SA. I think the UK authorities are a little more switched on in these issues .

I can't remember what DD's diastolic was, but her systolic was 86, which the nurse said was perfect.

I have no clue. At my DD's 3 year check, she wouldn't sit still long enough for the machine to get an accurate reading, so the nurse decided to just let it go this time. DD's arm was starting to turn red from where the cuff was tightening over and over everytime she'd move...wasn't worth hurting her

You can call the pedi's office and ask what the normal bp for that age is. Sounds about right though.

Here is a link. My son, who is in the 15th percentile for height has BP's of 95-100/ 70-80's & is considered to be borderline hypertensive (he can get to 130's/ 80's when upset....yikes). It's not in a range to be treated, just watched. It started when he was still in the NICU, so that's how we found it.
The BP seems normal from what I remember from my pediartic rotation in nursing school.

Best Marlins Player (2013)
Steve Cishek
Let's face it: There's not much to get excited about from the Miami Marlins this year. The good news from the Marlins penchant for trading their best players away for no-names is that they also got to replace the train wreck known as Heath Bell at closer. With Bell shipped off to Arizona, the closer's role opened up for 26-year-old Steve Cishek, who came into the role with guns blazing. Drafted by the Marlins in 2007, Cishek was a skinny kid whose fastball topped off at just 82 mph. But thanks to a growth spurt and some seasoning through college, Cishek now breaks the radar gun at 95 mph with a nasty fastball that gives opposing hitters the hives. Stepping in as the closer late in 2012, Cishek proved that Marlins fans need not worry about at least one position. The six-foot-six gangly heat thrower converted 13 of 14 save opportunities over the season's final three months, allowing opposing batters to hit a paltry .183 average with runners in scoring position during that time. Cishek was also the lone bright spot for the monumentally disappointing Team USA during this year's World Baseball Classic. So playing with a losing team and having success should be nothing new to him. The Marlins have plenty of problems going forward, but the closer ain't one. That is, of course, until they decide to trade Cishek for another crop of no-names.

Spiritual Support Tips for Alzheimers Caregivers
Spiritual Support Tips for Alzheimers Caregivers
By Maureen Pratt
Caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease is long, arduous, and draining journey. The strongest spirit can sag beneath the weight of loss and loneliness, and peace of heart can seem impossible. Yet, in times of darkest challenge, faith and the comfort that we draw from it can make the difference between stumbling and carrying on, between despair and resilience. Much like how we nourish our bodies, doing things that will feed our souls can help us through these hard days and nights, and provide immense support for the trials and, yes, the graces, that come with this journey.

Anyway, the Cairo place name link is interesting and warrants further investigation as to alternative locations I think. I'm also thinking there are a few other places in the world with pyramid structures, like Las Vegas and Paris, so I'm wondering if that might be a clue, if you actually saw the pyramids themselves falling. But then I think there are maybe just a few places that a quake that big could occur. But then we haven't experienced a 10 anyway, so it could happen anywhere.....

Tottenham confident Bale will stay on at 170,000 pounds-a week deal
Tottenham Hotspurs is confident that winger Gareth Bale will agree to stay on at the club at 170,000-pounds-a week deal, as Real Madrid and Manchester United eye the in-demand triple Player of the Year.
Bale has scored 25 goals in all tournaments and will extend his contract with Spurs till 2017 ahead of the Champions League next season, the Mirror reports.
According to the report, both Real and United are chasing the 60-million-pounds rated Bale who plans to double his wages at the Spurs by chairman Daniel Levy.
Bale has effectively provided a massive boost for the club by attracting other top players to his club.
Bale could be joined by Barcelona striker David Villa whom the Spurs believe they can get for far less than his current rate of 13 million pounds.
Southampton defender Luke Shaw may also join the league as Spurs plans to bring him in for the summer revamp. (ANI)

Shows > Music Video Premieres
Parquet Courts - "Sunbathing Animal"(Official Video) & Interview
You should click here now to subscribe to Noisey on YouTube.
Making music videos is weird because the level of palaver and handwringing that goes with making a 3 minute 30 seconds thing for people to kinda watch when they're listening to a song on YouTube seems out of balance.
Last year I pitched an idea for the Parquet Courts' "Borrowed Time" song that sounded hilarious and fun one night but then in the cold light of day was really bad. We were gonna have actors, backing dancers, lazers shows, internet cats and members of A$VP pop up throughout the song but the prospect of those things made singer Andrew Savage extremely uneasy.
We met to talk about it one night and the whole thing was a shitshow. Somehow we got a relationship back on track and made this Light Up Gold Road Trip documentary instead.
We just collaborated again on the video for Sunbathing Animal, the first song from their new album of the same name, which you can watch here.
Noisey: The first time we met was pretty awkward. We were there to discuss what was, in retrospect, one of the worst video ideas of all time.
Andrew Savage: You think so, in retrospect?
Yeah, after getting to know you and the aesthetics you like, it couldn't have been less fitting really.
Well I only think it was awkward because it was the first time we met. If you gave me a shitty idea TONIGHT, I'd just be like "No I don't want to do that" and it would have been no big deal.
It was a weird time in the band, were a lot of stuff was happening at once and we were about to go on the road for a long time. It was one of the first times I realized that in the band; that I didn't want to do something I had to be very vocal about it, you know… Is that why you say I'm like Mark Knopfler?
The Mark Knopfler comparison is because you have this, like, "cool meanness". You know Mark Knopfler's not really mean and all he really wants to do is jam and play rock and roll guitar but there's a thing…
You're saying I'm a straight shooter? That's what you're saying?
Nah. It's more like you have an aloof meanness… That's if you don't know you properly of course.
Well shit. And here I am thinking that I just come off as completely amicable.
Err, nah. I realized how terrible the idea was recently when I read somewhere you were talking about how much you liked The Replacements video for "Bastards Of Young". What is it that you like about that video?
Well I guess a lot of videos these days are too attention grabbing. I guess you have to be these days on the internet. But I think the best videos have an understated quality to them and aren't immediately flashy. There are some great flashy videos of course but the reason why I like that video is because of the understated quality it has.
I guess we got to know each other properly when we made the video that was Light Up Gold Road Trip documentary. There was talk of us doing a trilogy of these but what do you think about that now?
I don't think we shoot one any time soon. What makes that one so interesting is that it's the band when we're in such a fledgling, new state and you see us learning the ropes. Making one now wouldn't be that interesting. I think it'd be better if we made one when we were on the out and things are ending. It would be better if it was much later, or posthumous. Then it's something that can examine the band as a whole, maybe. How did we all fuck up.. I'll be in some new terrible band.
It'll be with a guy from another band of the same genre and you'll both be going: "This is the sound I always wanted to achieve with my old band…"
"…But I couldn't get it with those hacks. And I'm not talking to my brother any more."
I guess the video for "Sunbathing Animal" looks pretty simple but it actually took a great deal of planning and special FX. Your cat is 2 years old and jumps in the air at the hint of any movement or noise so was hard to get to "sunbathe".
Yeah, Frida. Named after Frida Kahlo for her moustache. Every afternoon she takes a nap in that spot, but that afternoon she knew she was being observed. So I created a special tea that I found on a cat lady website that was full of herbs that could allegedly make a cat sleepy. You got some valerian root, some poppy seed extract, skullflower caps, chamomile…. I gave that to her and she was kinda being a bit more chill but she was still moving around a bit too much. And I guess we basically made the sofa area of my apartment into a cat paradise in order to get her to perform. We had bird songs playing on the iPhone, the window was open for bird noises outside. We put some food on the couch and then finally some cat nip.
There was also the standing outside the front of the house whirling a fork around in a can of tuna and scratching the underside of the windowsill. This was the level of behind the scenes shit we were doing.
Maybe we shouldn't tell people about that tho. Maybe that should stay part of the movie magic.
Like, they tell you how they kinda made the FX in sci-fi films, but they don't tell you the whole story. Otherwise everybody would be doing it.
Right, exactly. I think a lot of stuff that gets written about bands is very sensational and hyperbolic and Parquet Courts have seen a lot about that too, so I wanted to make something that was decidedly understated and decidedly not sensational.

When we picked Quinn did we scare the hags to the point where they are thinking, wow Long and Quinn both coming at us we need to take a tackle.

When we picked Quinn did we scare the hags to the point where they are thinking, wow Long and Quinn both coming at us we need to take a tackle.
Quinn was such a steal man.
I think the steals of the first round were:
Robert Quinn, Prince Amukamara, and Nick Fairley
Cam Jordan to the Saints was pretty big too.
As for us scaring the hags... I think the fact that they're going to have to plead Hasselbeck to come back meant that they had to guarantee that he wouldn't get broken. By us, or by anyone else.
I just had this image of Chris Long and Robert Quin hitting poor Hasslebeck at the same time.
I feel bad for the other 3 teams in our division. They must be terrified of Chris Long and Robert Quinn chasing them.
LeShoure was the Steal of the 2nd round, wish we had a shot at him......oh wait, we did....and passed....
I dont think the Quinn pick affected the hags pick but roger saffold did. The hags saw just how good the rams offense was drafting 2 book-end tackles early in drafts to protect a young franchise QB.
Spags might have started a trend here!!
The Shesquawks must be regretful beating us in that primetime game. ;)
In that 8 day span I think they moved down 17 or so spots in the draft, beating us and then the Saints. They could have had their choice of Gabbert, Ponder, Any OT, Quinn, Fairley, and instead settled for a clear 2nd round value OT.
People will question the value of guys like Carpenter and Moffitt when they were selected, but if they become reliable starters on that line, Seattle will and should feel good about those selections.
if we didn't trent dilfer did.. lol that was a great rant the had at round 7

Keeping Jabba company at Star Wars Celebration VI in Orlando, Florida (August 2012). Special thanks to the great people at Gentle Giant for hiring me on another year! You're fantastic to work for!
good work!
The girl's pretty cute
Gentle Giant chose well when they hired you! Great picture here. You do that throne pose so well.
*The Hutt tugged on her chain to force her back against his slimy girth, his hand reaching out to stroke at her shoulder*
I'm not surprised they hired you. You're such a dead-ringer for ~20-year-old Carrie Fisher.
Yaaay, the Leia look alike is back
Hutt & The Hottie!!! You're a Gorgeous Leia!
Thats got to suck as a job... I was a Jedi as cosplay...
