19 Year Old Bailey Meola & Sydney Schumacher from Seattle, WA Still Missing in Nepal Trekking the Langtang Valley Trail
Two teens from Seattle, Washington, 19 year old Bailey Meola and Sydney Schumacher, have been missing since April 25, 2015 in Nepal. According to the family, an anthropologist reported seeing the two on April 24, just one day before a 7.8 earthquake hit Nepal and aftershocks destroyed nearby villages. The two girls had been trekking the Langtang Valley trail; however, on Tuesday, the family received news that the girls are not in the village, Kyanjin Gumba, where it had been reported that there were no known survivors.
The death toll from the earthquake in Nepal has risen to more than 4,600 — and many more people are unaccounted for, including two teens from Seattle.
The Meola and Schumacher families are staying optimistic that they will find their 19-year-old daughters, Bailey Meola and Sydney Schumacher.
The two girls had been trekking the Langtang trail. On Tuesday, they got news that the girls are not in the village, Kyanjin Gumba, where there are known survivors.
The teens had just graduated from Garfield High School and were taking an around-the-world trip, with a stop in Nepal.
Seattle teenage trekkers among the missing in Nepal.
Both young women are described as experienced hikers, who began exploring the outdoors when they were toddlers. The teens are trained in first aid and CPR, their parents said.
"The odds of them being injured are very high if they were in Langtang, but people have survived in that area. They've gotten out of the avalanche," said Rachelle Brown, Bailey's mother. "We're just very optimistic. We think our girls have the resources. They have the skills. They have the experience."
Both girls are traveling around the world after graduating from Seattle's Garfield High School in 2014. Meola started her trip in Thailand earlier this year, also visiting Singapore, Cambodia, and Laos. She wanted to take a "gap year" and explore the world before heading to college, her parents said.
The families have turned to social media for help, hoping for word of the girls' safety through Twitter or other forums. They've been using a Facebook page for people missing in the Langtang Valley, along with a Google spreadsheet.

Mt. Everest Avalanche Caught On Video After Massive Earthquake Hits Nepal on 4/25/15
Following the 7.8 magnitude earthquake in Nepal, a deadly avalanche was caught on video at the Mt. Everest as it swept through an unsuspecting base camp.
The deadly avalanche that swept through the Mt. Everest base camp after Saturday's massive earthquake in Nepal was caught on video by a German climber.
"The ground is shaking," someone shouts as the footage begins.
Moments later, climbers in the distance begin to run before the avalanche itself is visible. Then, within seconds, the camera fills with a fast-moving cloud, signaling the advance of the avalanche.
Warning: Video includes strong language
UPDATE I: Climbers trapped on Mount Everest 'are getting desperate'.
Helicopter teams began evacuating critically injured climbers at Mount Everest's base camp Sunday morning, but the effort came to an abrupt halt when a significant new aftershock triggered more avalanches and fears of additional casualties at the world's highest peak.
Dozens of climbers and Sherpas, their Nepali guides, remain trapped on the side of the mountain at two camps that sit above where the avalanche fell, climbers said in tweets and other social-
media posts. Ropes and other equipment left in place to help them descend had been swept away in Saturday's avalanche.
Daniel Mazur, a climber trapped at Camp 1, tweeted Sunday "Aftershock @ 1 pm! Horrible here in camp 1 Avalanches on 3 sides. C1 [Camp 1] a tiny island. We worry about the icefall team below. Alive?"

7.8 Magnitude Earthquake Devastates Nepal … Killing More than 1,000 People (Update: More Than 1,900 Killed in Quake)(Update: Death Toll More Than 3,700)(Update: Nepal Death Toll at 5,045 Deaths)
7.8 Magnitude Earthquake Hits Nepal …
A 7.8 magnitude earthquake has stuck Nepal in an area between the capital, Kathmandu, and the city of Pokhara. The government is reporting that nearly 700 people have died from the massive earthquake; however, the numbers are sadly expected top rise. The earthquake is the worst one in Nepal in 81 years as it toppling a 19th-century tower in the capital Kathmandu and touching off a deadly avalanche on Mount Everest.
Nearly 1,000 are known to have died in a powerful earthquake in Nepal, with many more feared trapped under rubble, officials say.
The 7.8 magnitude quake struck an area between the capital, Kathmandu, and the city of Pokhara, the US Geological Survey said.
Tremors were felt across the region, with further loss of life in India, Bangladesh, Tibet and on Mount Everest.
The government has declared a state of emergency in the affected areas.
A national police spokesman told the BBC that 970 people had died in the quake, and that more than 1,700 had been injured. At least 539 people were killed in the Kathmandu valley, he added.
Nepali Information Minister Minendra Rijal said there had been "massive damage" at the epicentre, from where little information is emerging.
UPDATE I: At Least 1,457 Dead After Massive Earthquake Strikes Nepal.
A massive earthquake near the capital of Nepal killed at least 1,457 people today as it collapsed temples and triggered an avalanche on Mt. Everest.
The magnitude-7.8 quake hit about 50 miles northwest of Kathmandu just before noon local time, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The death toll, estimated by the Nepalese Army, was expected to rise, said officials.
Another 1,055 were injured, said the country's finance minister, Ram Sharan Mahat. It's the worst earthquake in Nepal in over 80 years, according to the Associated Press.
CNN – 7.8 magnitude quake slams Nepal; hundreds dead
UPDATE II: Devastating Nepal quake kills over 1,000, some in Everest avalanche.
A powerful earthquake struck Nepal and sent tremors through northern India on Saturday, killing more than 1,000 people, toppling a 19th-century tower in the capital Kathmandu and touching off a deadly avalanche on Mount Everest.
There were reports of devastation in outlying, isolated mountainous areas after the midday quake of magnitude 7.9, Nepal's worst in 81 years, centered 50 miles (80 km) east of the second city, Pokhara.
As fears grew of a humanitarian disaster in the impoverished Himalayan nation of 28 million, an overwhelmed government appealed for foreign help. India was first to respond by sending in military aircraft with medical equipment and relief teams.
A police official said the death toll in Nepal alone had reached 1,130, more than half of them in the Kathmandu Valley. A further 36 fatalities were reported in northern India, 12 in Chinese Tibet and four in Bangladesh.
UPDATE III: Everest climbers jolted; at least 8 dead at base camp.
A powerful earthquake in Nepal sparked a deadly avalanche on Mount Everest on Saturday, killing at least eight people at the base camp.
The base camp is where journalists, climbers and their families gather and get news to the world about developments at Everest, the world's highest mountain above sea level.
At least one team of climbers on Everest appears to be safe after a few hours of anguish in which the expedition leader asked for prayers on social media in the wake of the massive earthquake in Nepal.
UPDATE IV: The Guardian – Nepal earthquake: death toll exceeds a thousand – live updates.
- More than 1,000 people have been reported dead after a huge 7.9 magnitude earthquake hit Nepal
- The country's deputy prime minister, Bamdev Gautam, has declared a state of emergency and appealed for humanitarian assistance across the region.
- 18 climbers were found dead on Mount Everest after the tremor triggered an avalanche. Many more are trapped.
- The total death toll has risen quickly throughout the day, and is now thought to include at least 634 in the Kathmandu Valley and 300 more in the capital.
- 36 people have also been reported dead India, 12 in China, four in Bangladesh and six in Tibet.
- The quake caused dozens of buildings in Kathmandu to collapse, including the historic Dharahara Tower.
UPDATE V: More than 1,900 killed by 7.8-magnitude quake in Nepal.
At nightfall, Nepal's capital became a tent city, as thousands of residents displaced by Saturday's devastating earthquake stayed in their dark gardens and out on the cracked streets and lanes, afraid to go back inside because of waves of aftershocks, including a powerful jolt Sunday that the U.S. Geological Survey said measured 6.7 magnitude and which sent people fleeing for open ground and safety.
It had been a pleasant Saturday morning, with families just sitting down to lunch and tourists thronging to Kathmandu's Durbar Square when the temblor hit, a horrible rocking motion that seemed to go on without end. The quake was ultimately felt across South Asia — in Lahore, in New Delhi, in Dhaka. Snow avalanched down Mount Everest. Buildings fell, mud-joined huts collapsed. By the end of the night, more than 1,900 lay dead, Nepalese officials said, with countless more injured.
UPDATE VI: Death toll from a devastating earthquake rose past 3,700.
Rescue workers raced to reach remote rural villages in Nepal Monday as the official death toll from a devastating earthquake rose past 3,700 and threatened to climb.
Nepal police said in a statement Monday that the country's death toll had risen to 3,617 people. That number does not include the 18 people confirmed dead in an avalanche that swept through the Mount Everest base camp in the wake of the magnitude-7.8 earthquake. Another 61 people were killed in neighboring India. China reported that 20 people had died in Tibet.
Reports received so far by the government and aid groups suggest that many communities perched on mountainsides are devastated or struggling to cope. Udav Prashad Timalsina, the top official for the Gorkha district, near the epicenter of Saturday's quake, said he was in desperate need of help.
"There are people who are not getting food and shelter. I've had reports of villages where 70 percent of the houses have been destroyed," he said.
Nepal quake: Death toll passes 3,700 amid fears of devastation in rural areas.
The death toll in Nepal from the earthquake that struck two days ago has risen to 3,726, Nepalese police spokesman Kamal Singh Bam said Monday.
As the death toll from Nepal's worst earthquake in decades surged past 3,400 on Monday, big questions remained about the scale of the devastation in rural areas.
The destruction in Kathmandu, the capital, is stark: Revered temples reduced to rubble, people buried in the wreckage of their homes, hospitals short on medical supplies overflowing with patients. Serious damage is also reported in villages in the surrounding valley.
But farther out across Nepal's rugged landscape — closer to the epicenter of the 7.8 magnitude quake that struck Saturday — the situation is worryingly murky.
UPDATE VII: The official death toll from Saturday's earthquake in Nepal has increased.
The official death toll from Saturday's earthquake in Nepal has increased.
Nepal police late Wednesday reported 5,045 deaths had occurred in Nepal.
It also said more than 10,100 people had been injured and 7,400 of them remained hospitalized.
In addition, 19 people were killed on Mount Everest, 61 people were killed in India and China reported 25 deaths in Tibet.

6.0 Magnitude Earth Quake Northern California, 6 Miles South of Napa … Strongest Quake since 1989 (VIDEO) (Update: Gas Leaks, Fires, 87 People Injured)
A 6.1-magnitude earthquake struck Northern California early Sunday, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
It was the strongest to hit the Bay Area since 1989, when a quake struck during the World Series.
Sunday's earthquake struck 4 miles northwest of American Canyon, 6 miles southwest of Napa, and 9 miles southeast of Sonoma, according to the USGS.
Updates can be read at City of Napa.org.
UPDATE I: LA TIMES – 6.0 quake jolts Bay Area; outages, injuries reported
Following the 6.0 quake, there are reports of gas leaks, downed power lines, homes on fire and injuries.
A long rolling temblor pegged at 6.0 by the U.S. Geological Survey shook a wide swath of the Bay Area awake early Sunday.
Centered about nine miles south of wine country's Napa at 3:20 a.m., the quake was felt as far south as Santa Cruz and into Sonoma County. It was the largest earthquake to strike the Bay Area since the Loma Prieta temblor of 1989, the USGS said.
A little more than two hours after the quake, a shallow magnitude 3.6 tremor was reported by the USGS. The aftershock occurred at 5:47 a.m. at a depth of 5.0 miles.
Residents reported power outages in Napa, and fire departments in several counties, along with the California Highway Patrol, were on the lookout for damage to bridges.
Reports were beginning to stream in of gas leaks, downed power lines and at least one fire.
Napa County Fire Department confirms they are swamped with calls, including reports of injuries. It is unclear how severe the injuries are because units are still responding.
UPDATE II: Roads Closed, Thousands Without Power After 6.0 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Near Napa.
Tens of thousands have lost power after an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 struck American Canyon at 3:20 PT Sunday morning.
The quake, the USGS says, was 6 miles south-southwest of Napa, and 8 miles north-northwest of Vallejo, California. It had a depth of 6.7 miles, they report.
A 2.5 magnitude aftershock was also reported in the same area at 5:01 AM.
Calls regarding broken gas and water mains as well as property damage reports are rolling in at agencies near the quake's epicenter. However, law enforcement and emergency agencies across the Bay Area are asking residents not to call 911 unless they have an emergency.
The California Highway Patrol is reporting the westbound off-ramp of state Highway 37 and westbound Interstate Highway 80 to state Highway 37 are closed due to possible damage. The CHP is on the scene inspecting the roadways.
PG&E also says that tens of thousands of customers are currently without power across the Bay Area, particularly in Napa and Sonoma counties.
UPDATE III: VIDEO of damage caused by earthquake.

UPDATE IV: 6.0 earthquake jolts Bay Area; damage and at least 87 injuries reported
A long, rolling temblor pegged at 6.0 by the U.S. Geological Survey shook a wide swath of the Bay Area awake early Sunday, causing damage to buildings and sending at least 87 people to a hospital.
At least three people were seriously hurt, including a child who was flown to Santa Rosa Community Hospital. A spokeswoman at Queen of the Valley Medical Center in Napa said most of its injured patients had cuts, bumps and bruises. Many are being treated and released, but some have been admitted.
The quake caused about 50 gas main breaks and 30 water main leaks. The leaks prompted officials by 7 a.m. to open two evacuation centers at Napa High School and Grace Church of Napa Valley. A number of historic buildings have been damaged, including the Sam Kee Laundry, Goodman Library and the Napa County Courthouse, according to the city.

Major 7.3 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes off Japan, Creating Small Tsunami Waves (Update: Tsunami Warnings Canceled)
A 7.3 magnitude earthquake has hit off of the Northeast coast of Japan that caused tsunami warnings in the area. The earthquake triggered small tsunami waves hit Japan's Miyagi Prefecture. Tensions were high as this was the same area that suffered the worst damage from the massive 9.0-magnitude quake and resulting tsunami in 2011 that left Japan in ruin with death and destruction.
A powerful earthquake struck off the northeast coast of Japan on Friday evening, rattling buildings in Tokyo and setting off a small tsunami.
It also jarred nerves in a nation still recovering from the devastating earthquake and tsunami in March 2011 that killed thousands of people and triggered the world's worst nuclear crisis in a quarter century.
Some roads were closed and rail services suspended in the northeastern prefecture of Miyagi, where a one-meter (3-foot) tsunami rolled ashore. It was followed by four other waves ranging from eight to 16 inches. Only minor injuries were reported immediately, including five in Miyagi and five on the outskirts of Tokyo.
UPDATE I: According to reports the tsunami warnings have been canceled.

Obama Leaves Martha's Vineyard on Separate Plane from Michelle … "don't let the hatch door of Air Force One hit you on the way out of Massa-tu-setts"
President Herbert Hoover, oops Barack Obama leaves Martha's Vineyard the same way he arrived, on separate planes from his wife and family. As Howie Carr of the Boston Herald says, "Hey, it's only money, our [the people's] money."Although Howie said it with a much thickah Boston accent.
And so farewell, Barack Obama, don't let the hatch door of Air Force One hit you on the way out of Massa-tu-setts, as you pronounce it.
The first family came in separate planes, and they're leaving, ditto. Hey, it's only money, our money.
Even before Irene, this wasn't much of a presidential vacation compared to the earlier ones. An Obama vacation on the Vineyard has been downgraded from Cat 3 to tropical storm. It's hard to get excited about the arrival, yet again, of the second coming of Herbert Hoover.
Of course Obama had to leave the golf course and Martha's Vineyard early. Not even Obama has the audacity to stay in the lap of luxury while Americans are getting pounded by Hurricane Irene and eight people were confirmed dead. Sadly, the death toll is now at 9. Let alone the hurricane was coming that way which meant his golf game would have been interrupted. The President left the friendly confines of "Life styles of the Rich & Famous to try and act presidential. However, it seems like more of a shameless photo-op. Maybe Barack can use Irene in his next economy speech and blame this hurricane as well for the bad economy.Just like his economic mouth piece did when Austan Goolsbee blamed the bad US economy (VIDEO) on earthquakes, tsunami's and hurricanes, oh my. You really can't make this crap up.
Thursday night, Austan Goolsbee was on Fox trying to blame the cratered economy on the "earthquakes out of Washington, D.C. I mean, we've had a series of things that have put some heavy blows and slowed the economy back down."
I'm not making this up. The "earthquake" is causing the double dip.
Now that Obama is back in charge and not on vacation, America don't you feel better? Who can wait for his jobs and economic speech he is supposed to give in September? I know I am on pins and needles, NOT!

5.8 Magnitude Earthquake Rocks Washington, DC, President Barack Obama Playing Golf at the Time at Martha's Vineyard (Update: 5.9 Earthquake)
A 5.8, Reuters is reporting a 6.2 magnitude earthquake, has rocked Washington, DC and the East Coast. According to ABC News, the earthquake centered northwest of Richmond, VA, shook much of Washington, DC, and was felt as far north as Rhode Island and New York City. The epicenter of the earthquake is being reported to have been in Mineral, VA.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake was 3.7 miles deep. Shaking was felt at the White House and all over the East Coast, as far south as Chapel Hill, N.C. Parts of the Pentagon, White House and Capitol were evacuated. The quake was in Mineral, Va., in Louisa County
You are never going to guess what the President was doing when the earthquake hit … PLAYING GOLF OF COURSE.
UPDATE I: FOX News reporting that JFK International Airport has been shut down. Federal buildings in DC, Pentagon and Capitol have been evacuated. Obviously, there is a fear of aftershocks so authorities are not going to want people to go back into buildings or underground transit.
The Pentagon has been evacuated, CNN's Barbara Starr reports. "When the building began shaking rather violently, hundreds of people began streaming out," she said, because many people thought that the building was under attack. Starr was standing in the Pentagon's press office when the roof started to shake.
UPDATE II: Being reported that the quake was felt from New Hampshire to Atlanta. Its now being called a 5.9 magnitude quake according to the USGS.
UPDATE III: Two nuclear power plants taken offline following quake. No reports of damage to the reactors, most likely a precautionary measure.
A nuclear power plant located in Louisa County, the epicenter of the earthquake in Virginia, has shut down.
The North Anna Power Station, operated by Dominion Power, has two reactors. The plant declared an "unusual event" in the wake of the 5.9 magnitude quake, which is the lowest stage on the plant's emergency scale.
UPDATE IV: Reagan National in Washington, DC is closed, flights are on hold.
I would say, if you do not need to be on your cell phones in the affected areas, please don't. It would appear that there has been not that much structural damage and no reported deaths or serious injuries. Thank God, great news.

VP Joe Biden Shows Up to NY Yankees Spring Training for Photo Op as US Wages War in Libya, Middle East in Crisis & Japan Recovers
Is it possible that President Obama and VP Biden could actually take their jobs serious?
While President Barack Obama plays tourist in Latin America,VP Joe Biden not to be outdone takes time for a photo op and some laughs at NY Yankee Spring Training. UNREAL. Could these two clowns actually take their job serious, especially at a time in which they have committed US troops to yet another military action? Oh that's right, Obama cancelled his trip to the Mayan Ruins so to appear to look like a leader.
Mr. President, would an act of war against Libya be considered a big "F'n" deal?
As stated by the Toronto Star, gues happens when Biden shows up to watch a Spring Training game … TOTAL CONFUSION. This seems to be par for the course with any thing done by Obama and Biden these days. That same confusion appears to be the order of the day in Obama's war in Libya as well. The US along with the "Coalition of the Unwilling" goes to war against Libya in an effort to protect civilians and not target Qaddafi as Obama who wants no part of leading the action tells the world and Libya that we will in no way put boots on the ground. Who tells the enemy what their plans are?
From the overwhelmed, over their head, Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight … the Middle East in crisis, Japan struggling with fixing nuclear reactors and recovering from an earthquake and tsunami, more terrorist attacks in Israel and the US is now implicated in another military action, this time with Libya and Biden is in FL at a fund raiser for Ben Nelson and off to see the Yankees (VIDEO).
Maybe the reason why Biden decided to have some fun and take in a game was because French PM Francois Fillon said we were not at war. Could you imagine what the MSM would be reporting if a Republican President and VP acted like this at such a time of crisis? It is simply frightening that Obama and Biden were elected at this point in time of our county's history. How out of touch could they be?
2012 cannot come fast enough!

As the World Burns … President Barack Obama Fills Out his NCAA Basketball Brackets
Rome burns, Nero played the violen, the World burns and is in chaos, President Barack Obama managed to take time and do the most important task of the day … fill out his NCAA Mens College Basketball March Madness brackets. Good grief. Far be it from this President actually acting Presidential and getting down to the hard issues of the day like the Middle East in chaos, Japan trying to recover from a massive earthquake and tsunami and trying to prevent a nuclear disaster, the US economy is disarray, Americans still unemployed and gas heading to $4 per gallon. Nope, Obama is lost in smallness and makes sure that he fills out his brackets. How's that "Hope & Change" treating you America?
The Middle East is afire with rebellion, Japan is imploding from an earthquake, and the battle of the budget is on in the United States, but none of this seems to be deterring President Obama from a heavy schedule of childish distractions.
This morning, as Japan's nuclear crisis enters a potentially catastrophic phase, we are told that Obama is videotaping his NCAA tournament picks and that we'll be able to tune into ESPN Wednesday to find out who he likes.
Saturday, he made his 61st outing to the golf course as president, and got back to the White House with just enough time for a quick shower before heading out to party with Washington's elite journalists at the annual Gridiron Dinner.
As stated by Weasel Zippers, in a word … PRIORITIES!
Remember when Obama was billed as a different kind of President and and "Outside the beltway" one. All one has to do is look at the fact that Obama picked all four #1 seeds in his brackets to see that was a lie as well. This supposed deep thinking and intellectual president went status quo and went out on a limb and went with Ohio St, Pitt, Duke and Kansas in the Final Four. Wow, Mr. President, Dare to Dream.
Some one has to say it, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS PRESIDENT! Remember when US President used to lead? Obama seems to be incapable. In crisis the world looks to the US for leadership and Obama is filling out March Madness brackets. Can 2012 come fast enough?

60 Year Old Japan Tsunami Miracle Survivor: Hiromitsu Shinkawa Found 10 Miles Out at Sea Clinging to Roof
Miracle … Japan Tsunami survivor found 10 miles out at sea clinging to the roof of his home.
In the midst of all the horrible and terrible stories of death and destruction in the aftermath of the Japan 8.9 earthquake and tsunami, comes the following miraculous story. 60 year old Hiromitsu Shinkawa was found safe and rescued 10 miles out to sea floating on the roof of his home. After clinging to the roof for two days following the tsunami, Shinkawa was spotted by a self-defence force destroyer taking part in the rescue as he waved a self-made red flag.
A 60-year-old man has been found on the roof of his floating house nearly 10 miles out at sea, two days after the tsunami that devastated the north-east coast of Japan.
Hiromitsu Shinkawa must have resigned himself to his fate when he was swept away by the retreating tsunami that roared ashore in his home town of Minami Soma in Fukushima prefecture.
As the wave approached, Shinkawa took the fateful decision to return home to collect belongings. Minutes later he was out at sea clinging to a piece of the roof from his own home.
Talk about your real life version of Japan 'Survivor" or 'Castaway'.

In a simpler time, before the Internet, mp3s, and bit torrents, kids found out about new music primarily two different ways: on television, and on the radio. If you were a rock and roll fan in Seattle in the '50s, '60s, and '70s, Dick Clark and Pat O'Day were your hosts.
"Those were days when, in the afternoon, after school, you came home and you could turn on ABC and see the one-hour dance show with all the current acts," O'Day told me this morning. "They found out about the acts by the Dick Clark show and by radio."
Clark, who passed away this week at the age of 82, was, of course the host of the hugely popular and influential after-school special, American Bandstand. O'Day was the king of rock radio at KJR, and the only Seattle-based DJ in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Both men capitalized on the musical know-how and entertainment experienced gained as influential DJs by launching successful promotions companies at a time when the touring business was "rugged and unpredictable." O'Day and Clark were innovators in the field, and brought order to the chaos.
"If you can understand this: We were all creating at the time," O'Day says. "We were all doing our own thing. Dick Clark was a promoter. He had things like The Osmonds and so on. And I, of course had Concerts West, which was the [country's] biggest promotions firm at the time."
|Pat O'Day
"Here and there there were individuals that a. Had the belief; b. Had the looks; c. Had the charisma; d. had the will power to go ahead; and e. Had the education and so on. So that was where Dick Clark came from. He had all those things in abundance, and that's what it took."
Although they met several times, O'Day says his meetings with Clark were professional, mostly forgettable affairs.
"We pretty much met as equals and peers," O'Day says. "I was very impressed by him. He was impressed by me. We were just two business guys who were meeting."

The Brazos Valley Bombers (25-9) defeated the Acadiana Cane Cutters (17-16) 6-2 Friday night, splitting the two game series.
Down 1-0 early, the Bombers tied the game 2-2 in the third inning behind base hits from shortstop Horacio Correa III and center fielder Matt Hilston.
The Bombers took the lead in the fifth inning following two base hits by Hilston and first baseman G.R. Hinsley, allowing two earned runs to cross home plate.
Starting pitcher Zach Girrens took the win for the night with five strikeouts through four innings. A new face to the Bombers bullpen, Heston Van Fleet, pitched two innings against the Cane Cutters and added three strikeouts to his resume.
The Cane Cutters failed to rally after their two runs early in the game. Catcher Robie Rojas sent one run home for the Bombers in the eighth inning, shortly followed by a double by Correa, bringing left fielder Blake Kopetsky in to score the sixth and final run.
The Bombers will head back home to Cellucor Field for Shirt Off the Back Night presented by Brazos Bingo on Saturday July 12, where they will face off against the East Texas Pump Jacks at 7:05 p.m.

Credit card issuer Discover Financial Services (
) on Monday caught some continued bullish sentiment from analysts
at Jefferies & Co.
The firm maintained its "Buy" rating on DFS and lifted its price
target from $40 to $45. That new target suggests a 17% upside to
the stock's Friday closing price of $38.62.
A Jefferies analyst commented, "The CFPB/FDIC ruling is
non-recurring and should remove a very modest overhang." On Friday,
Discover announced a settlement with the CFPB & FDIC regarding
credit protection products. The agreement includes some $200
million in customer refunds and a $14 million fine.
Continuing, the firm said "On a separate note, trends in credit
recoveries and gross charge-offs lead us to conclude credit should
continue to improve into at least through Q4'12. We expect
recoveries on charged-off accounts to mean revert later than
originally anticipated, providing slight upside to our current core
EPS estimates."
Accordingly, Jefferies lifted its earnings estimates for the
company through 2014.
Discover Financial shares were mostly flat in premarket trading
The Bottom Line
Shares of Discover Financial Reserves (
) have a 1.04% dividend yield, based on Friday's closing stock
price of $38.62. The stock has technical support in the $34 price
area. The shares are trading near all-time highs.

So once again for no good reason covers has put me in the penalty box and given ZERO reason for doing so. Getting sick of the bullshit where people can make racist posts and slur all kinds of shit but I drop a couple F bombs and now I'm the bad guy.They should at least write you a fucking email and tell you why your in trouble..
(College Ball)
Magic will have no answer today, they just don't have the talent, and I think Spoelstra is the best adjustment coach in the game. Watch this game go from a small margin at half to a 12 point victory.
Dallas V NY OVER 187
Both teams been very low scoring as of late, but I see the Mavs turning the LIN turnovers into buckets down the other end as well as I believe there will be a lot of fouling by both DIRK and AMARE.
Pacers get out of the dog house against these next couple bum teams they are playing. Indiana needs to pound the shit out of BOBCATS and I think the cats will be a bit too excited after winning one game against a shit team.
SAC NEEDS A WIN!!! The cleveland strengths at the 4 and 5 will be overtaken by the athleticism and hunger of the Kings front line... (at least we hope so) I think evans can take irving in the post and if the kings get their offense going again this could be a nice win for them.
So philly has the most 20 point wins and the largest margin of victory in the NBA and they are laying 1 to a mediocre team? why? because the 4 and 5 spot for the T wolves is going to beat up on Philly Down low. 76ers are 8-9 SU without HAWES, its about to be 8-10.
Anyone else find this whole game to be suspect? I think the suns play for pride... maybe I just hate losing last time... who knows.
Sacramento +6.5
Predicted Score:
Sacramento - 96
New York - 97
The knicks are not good enough to get the acclaim they have received but it just may be enough confidence to make them play well. To me this game is a big time set up, you almost know the knicks will win, but by how many? I don't know if Lin or any of the New York Guards can check Tyreke Evans, and Fredette should be back off the bench tonight, so I see a lot of offense coming from the Kings guards. Hey fellas, the kings are NOT that bad, and they have lost 2 straight so I see them being very pumped up for tonights game.
Nets +3.5 & Under 186.5
Memphis - 87
New Jersey - 90
In this seemingly low scoring affair I have to give the edge to the home team. The Nets are desirous of a win, i know they do not play exceptionally well at home, but i have the feeling that the grizz are not so excited about a trip to JERSEY for a game with no fans to play for or against. This is a miserable contest and I think the nets will win.
Boston -9.5
Predicted score
Detroit - 82
Boston - 95
The celtics are going to absolutely shit stomp the pistons tonight. The celtics are a similar style of offense as the spurs and as we saw late in the game although the pistons covered the spread, the couldn't stop the execution of the spurs veteran offense. The celtics are a bit injured, but I am one of those people who think that the C's bench is a lot better than people give it credit for. The Pistons are going to get frustrated early as not one person on their team can run with ray allen. Allen is going to get himself some good shot opportunities tonight. I know the pistons have been on a run, but none of the teams on that run play anywhere near the Defense of boston and i truly believe the Green Machine rolls over the horses.
Over 202.5 Clippers V Washington
Clippers will not be stopped by this washington team and with the speed of both teams and the lack of defensive discipline I think this is going to be a very high scoring game. Plus both teams will open up and put on a good show with dunkers like McGee and Jordan at the 5. Will kenyon martin play? I hope so, cuz he is the missing element, a big man who can shoot.
Knicks have been covering some generous spreads as of late and I think their mismatch here at the 1 spot will be glowing. Melo is going to be pouting that he didn't get the ball on the last possession and I think the knicks lose a little fortitude after their 9th loss of their last 11 last night.
Spurs -3 V OKC
Spurs on a night's rest coming against an OK CITY team hot off a comeback win.
UTAH -2 V Lakers
Lakers have beaten this team twice this year and they are hot as hell, and they are catching points? I think this comes down to the benches, and utah's bench although seemingly less talented and less experienced, is much more consistent in their production.
Now anyone who has seen me on here knows i cap every major sport, and the most consistent thing about my method is playing fewer games to maintain some sort of sanity...
1. Charlotte +2.5New york is on a roll and now at home they are barely favored against a streaky 5-8 team? I think this one is a winner because the knicks have a tendency to shoot themselves out of games and Charlotte is a defensively strong unit. LIne is shrinking in this game already and not many bets on it yet, I would hop on this one ASAP2. Chicago +8 V LALI love the lakers but I dont like them laying this many against a team which matches up with them so well.. Chicago may win this game on the floor i smell a fishy line (dont tell me they dont exist)more to come...

There are a lot of food competitions on TV these days. There's Top Chef where the pros fight it out, Top Chef Masters where more pros do the same, but for charity. Hell's Kitchen is for barely ambulatory knuckleheads and rank amateurs competing for (wink wink) an exec chef's job at one of Gordon Ramsay's big-ass restaurants. Food Network more or less survives on hackneyed cooking competitions these days and barely even shows the one good one they used to have: the original Iron Chef. And god only knows what kind of weirdness lurks on the high end of the cable spectrum.
I quit watching cooking shows a while ago when I found that I could simply no longer stomach all the false drama and product placement. But I am totally going to break my fast when the documentary Ready, Set, Bag! hits theaters come August. Why? Because it's about the kind of competition I can really get into.
Grocery bagging.
In Vegas.
Never heard of Ready, Set, Bag!? That's okay. Neither had I until I read about it this morning on Eater. But now, I can't wait to see the thing, and I've got a trailer just waiting for you after the jump.
"Ready, Set, Bag!" HD Trailer from Ensemble Pictures on Vimeo.
Now tell me that didn't look 10,000 times more interesting than you ever thought a documentary about grocery bagging could possibly be...
While the mere existence of this kind of flick is news enough to take us smoothly into our weekends, I can even do you one better. According to the movie's Facebook page there's a screening coming up right here in Seattle that'll be running from August 6th to the 12th.
There's no location listed yet, but you can bet that as soon as I know, you'll know.

I am 37 wks and 2 days. I am very happy for my girls that we made it this far but I am so done being pregnant! I am so uncomfortable all the time and I just want these babies here! My dr. wont induce until 39 wks and I know 2 wks may not sound bad but it feels like eternity for me. Anyone else feeling like this?Ā
anyone else over 37 weeks
Yes I am too! I am 37 weeks 2 days as well. Luckily, I am being induced this Thursday the 25th and I will be exactly 38 weeks. It does feel like an eternity but think of how much we have allowed the babies to grow. Hopefully we can bring them home with us right away. Hang in there. You are almost done! You are not alone. Good luck!
37w4d and getting sooo antsy. I also am not delivering until 39 weeks, unless it happens on it own.

37 weeks to the day here. With my 1st 2 pregnancies I was in labor right now or holding my baby for the 1st time. I don't do well mentally past 37 weeks. I was trying to be good and just wait until my scheduled C-section on the 31st but that thought has passes so I have unofficially taken myself off of bedrest. I am going to cook up some meals today for the freezer and sewing my CD inserts then it is nipple stimulation for me and DH might even get lucky ┬Ā(Won't he be glad). It's time...

Hi all I am new to this group as of today! I am also 37 weeks and 2 days, expecting g/g twins. VERY ready to be done. I'm 4 cm, 75% effaced, and had so many false alarms...pretty frustrated. Been having BH contractions since 20 weeks. My doc is also waiting until 39 weeks to induce so right now it's a 9/2 delivery date. I started having some contractions last night about 9-10 minutes apart that got my attention, but they fizzled out after an hour. ┬ĀI'm uncomfortable, not sleeping well, and am ready to cry at just about anything right now...I'm sure you can all relate! I AM glad they have stayed in this long and grown so well. This is my 3rd pregnancy tho so I am surprised things haven't started moving quicker at this point. But it's nice to know there are other women out there right now in the same situation.
37 weeks 5 days... c-section on Tuesday! I never thought it would finally get here... and let me tell ya... 2 weeks or 2 days I am just as uncomfortable and miserable and impatient!!! Good Luck!
Expecting bleacher butt for many years to come, ALL BOYS 6yrs, 4 yrs, twin 1yr olds, and #5 joined the team in June!

Can you imagine being there with Mary Magdalene, on the first Easter morning? Think of how her life was changed when Jesus called her name. All she had to hear was one word, "Mary," and she was never the same. Isn't it a joy to know that the creator of the universe knows each one of us by name?
Our modern culture is doing everything it can to keep us from realizing that Easter, the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, is by far the greatest event in human history! In many places it is now just "spring break," or an Easter egg hunt.
The ACLU is working hard to take the crosses out of many of our public places, but we can be encouraged by the resistance of many Americans that want these crosses to continue to be seen as a testimony to the fact that we are still a Christian nation. From the founding of our nation, God has been a part of it, and we need to heed this message, and be encouraged by the Bible: Deuteronomy 6:5-7: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and with all your strength … ."
Do you really think that if we truly took this to heart, we might have fewer killings, less fighting in our schools, in our streets, and that we might teach our young people that there is no substitute for distinguishing right from wrong? We all want guidelines to live by … and God is the answer!
Let's acknowledge God in our schools and in our society, and we will see the great changes that will come about. Do you believe in God, the creator of our universe? Many are so quick to try to put him down, deny him, and so ready to defend other beliefs, but when there is a real need, "Oh my God" comes to their lips!
President Calvin Coolidge, in 1924, said, "A trained intelligence can do much, but there is no substitute for morality, character and religious conviction."
This still applies today, and let's acknowledge God, and God himself has promised us that "If my people that are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land;" 2 Chronicles 7:14.
Happy Easter! Enjoy the beauty of it!

Did you buy a pair of Skechers "Shape-Ups" hoping to lose some weight? Sadly, are you still fat? Well, then, there just might be a (partial) refund coming your way.
Who knew?
Skechers decided to settle the lawsuit rather than fight it, meaning the company has not admitted any wrongdoing and still denies the allegations of false advertisement. Still, Skechers will be parting with a substantial chunk of change as a result of the court action.
Details of the settlement were provided in a snarky and somewhat ridiculous press release posted on the Attorney General's Website:
Skechers will pay $117,138 to Washington state. About half will cover the state's legal fees and the rest will be used for consumer education, for health care purposes including but not limited to health-related research or education or programs directed towards girls' or women's' physical fitness, proper nutrition or reduction of obesity.
Under the settlement, Skechers is prohibited from making health and fitness claims unless it has adequate substantiation to do so. Consumers who purchased Shape-Ups, Tone-Ups, or the Skechers Resistance Runner should go to ftc.gov for information about how to obtain a partial refund.
For those playing at home, by our math that means Washington spent about $60,000 on the lawsuit.
Perhaps best of all, the lawsuit has inspired McKenna to start delivering fitness advice.
"Advertising materials claimed that consumers may 'get in shape without setting foot in a gym' even though there's no good evidence to show the shoes work as advertised," says McKenna via press release. "Don't cancel your gym membership. File these sketchy footwear claims under 'too good to be true.'"

Most studies disagree
Rhode Island "is one of the worst states" for income equality.
— PolitiFact Rhode Island
True for R.I., not for U.S.
"This is the first time in our state, and one of the first times in the country, where benefit reductions . . . has happened to people who are retired."
There's support for unions, but is it growing?
"Public sentiment in favor of collective bargaining and in favor of the unions has actually gone up as these governors, I think, have overreached and gone too far and tried to destroy the labor movement."

Top-seeded Oregon St. edges North Dakota St. 2-1
CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Andrew Moore set a postseason school record with 14 strikeouts and top national seed Oregon State got past North Dakota State 2-1 Friday night in the NCAA Corvallis regional.
Oregon State (43-12) got a two-out solo home run from Dylan Davis to take the lead in the bottom of the seventh inning. Oregon State's bullpen took over when Moore finished after eight to shut down the Bisons and seal the victory.
"I felt like I located the fastball really well and that's the best my curveball and slider have been all year," Moore said.
Moore (6-5) was dominant after giving up a solo home run to Kyle Kleinendorst in the second inning. He gave up four hits and North Dakota State did not advance a runner past second base after the second inning.
Oregon State tied it at 1 on Tyler Morrison's RBI groundout in the second inning. But the Beavers struggled offensively stranding 11 base runners and finishing 0-12 with runners in scoring position.
"We did not do the things we need to do offensively we needed to win but fortunately we pitched and we defended and got a win," Oregon State coach Pat Casey said.
Kleinendorst went 2-4 with an RBI for North Dakota State (25-25). The Bisons were making their first regional appearance since joining Division I in 2004.
David Ernst (4-5) gave up two runs on 10 hits over 7 1/3 innings in the loss. He struck out six.
Oregon State is now 13-0 in regional play at home in the current format. The Beavers will play UC Irvine in the double-elimination regional on Saturday night, while the Bison face UNLV.

Mt St Helens from Harry's Ridge
Is this named after the man who refused to leave when he was told that the volcano would erupt?
Beautiful scenery.
Beautiful scenery.
what i really love about this is that both the far off mountains and the close up flowers are in focus. it has a breathtaking sense of infinity. the only thing i'd say though, is the whites and brights need to be brighter.
Thank you for the kind words As for the whites and brights, I tried, it washed a lot out.
stunning shot
Beautifully done. It's so tough to get something so close and so far away so well.
i love the beautiful colours in the rock formations
Beautiful work!
It's the time to go normally it isn't bloomed until late July. Great place to beat this heat too lol
I will try my best to get up there soon. Would you estimate that the wildflowers are already at peak?
On a similar note (wildflowers), you should try to get to Silver Star Mountain (specifically Ed's Trail) soon. It's like a kaleidoscope up there now, and it is a great year for beargrass.
I'd say they are darned near to peak and with the heat, I don't know how much longer they will last. I noticed on Portlandhikers.org trip reports, that reports for the bloom started 2-3 weeks ago.
I will hit Silver Star, maybe next week. Will they still be ok you think?
I will hit Silver Star, maybe next week. Will they still be ok you think?
Next week should still be fine for Silver Star, preferably midweek and after the heat wave abates. Do you have directions to the Ed's Trail trailhead? If not, please send me a PM.
great image, strong colours and great foreground interest
This is so beautiful. I want to be right there.
