Aris v City: Stat attack
- 15 February 2011 06:52
- Posted by Tim Oscroft
When the Blues visit Thessaloniki tonight, it will be the first time City have ever faced Greek opposition competitively.
Aris FC have qualified for Europe on many occasions over the last 40 years, but they have never lost at the Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium in European competition, a record any club of any stature would envy.
It all started against English opposition in 1970, when Chelsea were held to a 1-1 draw by Aris in the European Cup-Winner's Cup before thrashing them in the second leg. They went to win that now-defunct competition (last won in 1999 by a Sven-Goran Eriksson-managed Lazio side that included Roberto Mancini), so let's hope City can similarly despatch their Greek opponents and meet with the same kind of success.
Bobby Robson's outstanding Ipswich Town side of the early 1980s tasted defeat in Thessaloniki, but that 3-1 loss was overturned to the tune of 5-1 at Portman Road. From there they didn't look back, going on to win the UEFA Cup that season.
Aris have been as solid as ever on home turf this season, and have only conceded two goals, both in the 2-2 draw with Jagiellonia Bialystok back in July.
They entered the Europa League at the third qualifying round stage, one ahead of City, and they lost twice during their Group B campaign, to Rosenburg and Bayer Leverkusen. Their excellent home record, with no-one able to breach their defences on their own patch, helped them qualify for the knock-out stages in second place behind the German outfit.
City may never have come up against a Greek side, but the boss has and he boasts a decent record against them. His record as a player was W2 D2 L0, and he opened his European scoring account against Larissa. A goal against Panathanikos also helped Sampdoria down the road to the 1992 European Cup final.

Student Perspective
From small town to big university: transitioning into higher education
By Steven Bryner, senior, English
As part of Inside CU's Student Perspective stories, student writer Steven Bryner presents a regular series following Freshman Ryan Zerfoss throughout his first academic year, and sharing his insights, experiences and impressions with readers. The series will run every other month, beginning with this edition.
Guy Ryan Zerfoss, a freshman in the Environmental Design program, is from Glenwood Springs, Colorado, a small canyon town north of Aspen. He decided to come to the University of Colorado at Boulder during his senior year in high school. CU-Boulder was Ryan's first choice. "It's a good thing I got accepted, because I didn't apply anywhere else," he said.
Ryan's transition has been smooth despite coming from a small town on the Western Slope to Boulder, which is over three times the size and population. "Orientation wasn't as intimidating as I thought it would be," said Ryan. "They took us on a tour of the Environmental Design building and then escorted us into a lecture hall. Mark Gelernter, the dean of the school, came and spoke to us. He told us to expect the program to be hard, but he also said how much fun there was to be had."
So far, Ryan enjoys the Boulder lifestyle. "My family, both immediate and extended, are from here and a few of them still live here," he said. "Also, I have friends here who I've known for years, like you (Steven). That really helps with those home cooked meals."
He finds classes and academics very different from his high school experience. "There are a greater number of students for starters," he said. "This is a much larger scale and I feel this environment is less intimate than my small school back in Glenwood. High school was easier. I didn't have to apply myself as much. Here I have to keep up on my homework and actually study before exams. I'm finding this is also beneficial to me in the end. The professors and instructors seem more involved in the subjects and it makes it more interesting as a student."
Ryan's goals for his first year include involving himself as a member of the campus community. "Ultimately, I want to graduate with a major in landscape architecture, mainly because I want to work with facilities, parks and resources that aren't being used or that are run-down and make them more accessible to the community," he explained. "I think community is important. I want to be involved with campus as well as Boulder's community."
Zerfoss said he would also like to study abroad. "I would like to go to a Spanish-speaking country so I can become fluent in the language," he said. "That's a couple of years away. Right now, I'm applying to CLP (Core Leadership Program) so I can get involved with CU GOLD (a student organization governed and operated by students that offers free aid to the campus community in enhancing and/or developing leadership skills). I think this program will help me develop the skills I'll need to accomplish these goals."
So far, Ryan is having a great time at CU-Boulder and is positioning himself to be a role model for the students who follow him.

|This is actually Wilson's second stint in Minnesota. He was an assistant for the North Stars during the 1992-93 season before relocating with the franchise to Dallas in the same capacity, where he won a Stanley Cup in 1999. Wilson was with the Stars for 16 years, which included seven division titles, two Western Conference championships and two President's Trophies. He was also Dallas' interim coach in 2002, when he led the club to a 13-11-7 mark. Prior to moving to Dallas from Minnesota, Wilson worked as an assistant coach with the Los Angeles Kings for three seasons, including a 15-game stint as co-coach (with Cap Raeder) in 1990-91. Prior to joining the Kings, Wilson was an assistant with the New York Islanders in 1988-89. That same year he was also an assistant on Canada's National Junior Team.
|Before joining the Islanders, Wilson spent eight years with the WHL Prince Albert Raiders, six as an assistant and the final two seasons as head coach and general manager (1986-87 and 1987-88). A native of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Wilson helped the Raiders to the Memorial Cup Championship in 1984-85.
Wilson began his coaching career as an assistant at his alma mater, the University of North Dakota, where the Sioux won the 1980 NCAA Division I title and two WCHA crowns during his two years. He played hockey and football at North Dakota and earned a degree in education.
Drafted by Montreal in the 1970 amateur draft, Wilson spent four seasons (1973-77) in the NHL as a defenseman for Montreal, St. Louis and Detroit.
Wilson and his wife, Carol, are the parents of four children: Landon, Brooke, Barrett and Brittany.

It wasn't until we moved into our new home that we learned that you could have your home's air ducts professionally cleaned! Who knew? I seriously thought you could just use your vacuum cleaner to do this type of job. I know… I have much to learn about homeownership – and life, in general. But anytime there's a chance to pay someone to do house work, I'm in!
This was actually recommended by our real estate agent and the home inspector, because our home is a flipped home that was recently completely renovated. So, there were LOTS of dust and debris in the HVAC system and ducts.
But, before you pick up the phone to schedule a professional visit, make sure you do a bit of research. You may not have to clean your home's air ducts at all, or at least you may find that it's not as urgent as you thought it was.
Some people are under the impression that they MUST get their home's air ducts professionally cleaned to help reduce allergies and improve their HVAC system's efficacy. While doing this type of cleaning may help, there really isn't scientific evidence to prove it. According, to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), duct cleaning has never been shown to actually prevent health problems. Studies also fail to conclusively demonstrate that dust levels in homes increase because of dirty air ducts. In fact, dirt and other pollutants can enter your home from outdoor cooking, cleaning, smoking, etc. So, in other words, you'll always have at least some dust/dirt in your home's ducts. (I know. Gross!)
"Ok. So does this mean I don't have to do this? Ever?"
Not quite true. You could pay someone to get your home's air ducts cleaned if it gives you peace of mind. However, you should definitely do it if you're in one of the following situations:
- There's visible mold growth inside ducts or other HVAC components.
- There are excessive amounts of dust or dirt. This could happen after having remodeling work done, like in our situation, for example.
- There are insects or other small animals calling your air ducts their home. If this is the case, you may have to call an exterminator as well.
"What about cleaning air ducts to increase the HVAC efficacy? Is this true?"
Well, according to some homeowners' anecdotal experiences and the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA), air duct cleaning does help. Some people have seen a "significant improvement in air flow and air quality" after having their air ducts and HVAC components cleaned, reducing their energy bills. The NADCA recommends cleaning them every three to five years to maximize your HVAC system's life.
Things to Consider When Choosing an Air Duct Cleaning Service Provider
According to the EPA website, here are the things your service provider should do when cleaning your home's ducts:
- Open access ports or doors to allow the entire system to be cleaned and inspected.
- Inspect the system before cleaning to be sure that there are no asbestos-containing materials in the HVAC system. If asbestos is present, a special cleaning must be done.
- Use HEPA (high-efficiency particle air) vacuuming equipment if the vacuum exhausts inside the home. Otherwise, use equipment that exhausts outside of the home.
- Protect carpet and furnishing during cleaning.
- Use well-controlled brushing of duct surfaces in conjunction with contact vacuum cleaning.
- Use only soft-bristled brushes for fiberglass duct board and sheet metal ducts internally lined with fiberglass.
- Take care to protect ductwork, including sealing and re-insulating any access holes so they're airtight.
- Follow NADCA's standards for air duct cleaning and NAIMA's recommended practice for ducts containing fiberglass or constructed of fiberglass duct board.

Hi we recently bought a used mobileho
E. I was looking in the airvents and there is lots of dirt and things that can fall in airvents, i was comsidering proffessional cleaning and was reading information both for and against. I don't see any mold or creatures but they did have mice under the dishwasher. I think the long trip got ridd of them. Any comments will be welcome.
professional cleaners provide you good quality service and also they gives you discount. this is nice information..!
Duct cleaning is not needed nearly as often as service providers say. It is a good service if they become contaminated but a properly maintained system should not need it often if ever.
I agree with you that the air duct cleaning is necessary for every home. I think we should hire professionals for it because they can provide us better services at affordable prices.
Thank you for sharing the importance of duct cleaning. Some air ducts require professional cleaning while others do not. This can increase the quality of air in our homes and reduce allergies. Like you said, we should inspect the system before cleaning to be sure that there are no asbestos-containing materials in the HVAC system. I have not checked my air ducts recently so this has been a great reminder. Thanks again!
Interesting post. You have written this post like pro. Cheers for that! & of course NADCA certification is quite important while choosing your air duct cleaners. Especially last few tips on cleaning air duct are truly useful. We will share this easy-to-understand post with our readers too. Keep the good work up. Quite liked this post. Honestly 🙂
I would recommend to anyone moving into a new home to have your air ducts cleaned by a professional before you move in. As mentioned in the above comments, there could be anything from animal hair, to actual dead animals! Although it is possible to 'do it yourself', professionals like Infinite air cleaning will make sure the job is done properly, and to a standard that can help to reduce your energy bill.
Air ducts are cleaned and properly cared for on a regular basis, it is one important part of maintaining a clean air conditioning and heating system is making sure the filter is regularly changed.
It is extremely important as it will not only save you money on your electricity bill but also keep the air clean from things like dust and dirt, which is bad for your health.
You should definitely get your air ducts cleaned, think of the health issues that could evolve because mold or something got in there.
I read your article with interest and think it is a good start. One service that is always talked about is fogging ductwork for sanitizing. Many companies offer this service for dis-infecting or adding a clean smell to the ductwork. Before any chemical or dis-infectant is used-please read the MSDS(Material Safety Data Sheet). You might be surprise on what you are putting into the air stream. This is a high proft service and should be explored thoroughly before purchasing.
Thank you for your posting.
We are trying to educate people about the importance of air duct cleaning in Atlanta GA.
You do it yourself or hire a professional but it is important to clean the Air Duct. I have once seen dead animals in there and that is grouse!!
Great article Gabriela!
I have read this post that describes the best idea before shifting in your new home. Take Air Duct Cleaning Services is the right decision for home cleaning because a professional air duct cleaning company has done their job very well. ventcleaningservices.com also provide air duct cleaning services in San Diego.
I just had the ducts in my parents' old house cleaned and ran into the same problem as Tommi. It was probably still worth the repainting to get 30 years worth of cat hair and other crud out of there, though.
It's always a good idea to have the ducts cleaned when you first move into a new home. You mentioned mold and dust but there's also animal hair and other things the previous owners might have had in the house. When we moved into our house and had someone come over they discovered that all the ducts hadn't been sealed and matched up properly, which meant two rooms in the house weren't getting proper heat or cold when either the heat or AC was turned on. That was worth the less than $100 we paid to have it done.
This duct cleaning is fine and dandy unless you live in an older home or in a home whose previous owners painted over the duct covers. The cleaning service will say, "Oh, I'll just run a razor knife around the duct cover, it'll be fine" and then you will be left with duct covers that are decorated with cracked chunks of paint. The older the house, the thicker the chunks. Seventy-some years of dirt and dust probably made the cleaning of the ductwork a good thing……but cosmetically, it was a disaster.

Health & Pregnancy
Docs Warn Against Raw Milk for Kids, Pregnant Women
By Brenda Goodman
HealthDay Reporter
MONDAY, Dec. 16, 2013 (HealthDay News) -- In a new position statement, U.S. pediatricians say raw milk and cheeses are simply too risky for infants, children and pregnant women.
The statement by the American Academy of Pediatrics, published online Dec. 16 in the journal Pediatrics, urges parents not to let their kids drink unpasteurized milk or eat cheese made from it.
The doctors also called for a ban on the sale of all raw-milk products in the United States.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 148 outbreaks due to consumption of raw milk or raw-milk products were reported to the agency between 1998 and 2011.
Raw milk is milk that hasn't been pasteurized, or briefly heated to at least 161 degrees Fahrenheit to kill harmful germs. Before milk began being widely pasteurized in the United States in the 1920s, it routinely made people sick.
Raw milk can harbor bacteria that cause tuberculosis and diphtheria, as well as the germs that cause nasty bouts of stomach trouble such as Listeria and E. coli, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Children are more susceptible to these illnesses than adults, and they tend to get the worst of the complications, such as sudden and sometimes life-threatening kidney failure. Illnesses tied to raw milk also can cause miscarriages in pregnant women.
"Pasteurization is one of the major public-health advances of the century. It's a shame not to take advantage of that," said Dr. Mary Glode, a professor of pediatric infectious disease at Children's Hospital Colorado, in Aurora.
Yet as more people embrace locally produced foods, raw-milk products have experienced a surge in popularity.
Fans say it tastes better and that it might protect kids from developing allergies and asthma, although there's little research to back up those claims.
It also costs a pretty penny. With consumers willing to fork over $7 to $14 a gallon, dairies are pushing state legislatures to ease restrictions on the sale of raw milk as a way to save cash-strapped family farms.

Yes, you read that right. I started this blog on 29 May 2010, which makes me three today. So I thought I would look back at my very first post and see if I have achieved anything along the way...
"This blog is intended to be an extension to my ancestor-spotting records at home of names, dates and places. It is going to be the place where I put my family history. Anecdotes, snippets of information, quotes, pictures - and even some chapters of book(s) I am writing on the surnames that appear in my family tree. Who knows? there may even be some information that might help you, dear reader..."
Well, I've managed the 'anecdotes, snippets of information, quotes, pictures' part. I haven't done the 'chapters of book(s)' bit, though - I suppose I am still too nervous of copyright thieves. Anyway, the book I was writing ('Faith and Silk', about my way-back-when silkweaver ancestors) has proved to be such a monumental task that I have put it on the back burner while I flex my writing muscles on more 'modern' topics, such as my grandparents' life stories, joining in the Family History Writing Challenge, taking up the A-Z Challenge, and writing about Fearless Females.
The best thing I have discovered about writing a family history blog is that it focuses you. At least, it did me. Although I frequently tell beginners not to take a scattergun approach, I am rather poor at taking my own advice - and began to wonder why I wanted to give up researching my ancestors when I 'only' had about 3,000 of them. Then I started this blog, and it has done wonders for my research approach. Geneabloggers, with its excellent daily blogging prompts, and Thomas MacEntee with his boundless enthusiasm for the craft, have inspired me and FOCUSED me so that my family history has benefited enormously.
Thank you, Thomas, and also to all those who have followed me.

A shooting at a Roswell, New Mexico middle school on Tuesday morning injured three or more students.
A New Mexico State Police spokesperson said preliminary reports confirmed there were injuries as a result of the shooting, however, no details on how many or the identities of the victims have been released. Police confirm that a shooter is in custody.
At least two minors are being "treated and evaluated" at Eastern New Mexico Medical Center, said Brooke Linthicum, spokeswoman for the hospital.
The Roswell, New Mexico Police Facebook page stated:
"Shooting at Berrendo Middle School!! Parents are asked not to go to the school as it is on lockdown"
The school was placed on lockdown immediately following the shooting at approximately 8:11 a.m. on Tuesday morning and Roswell police instructed parents not to go to the middle school.
The Roswell Independent School District superintendent has since announced that students were being bused to the Roswell Mall for pickup.
USA Today reports that Rosewell has experienced increased gang violence in recent years and police have reached out to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for assistance.

Pete Seeger, the singer, songwriter and political activist who gained national prominence during the 1960s Counter Culture Movement died on Monday in Manhattan at the age of 94. His death came just one day after the music industry celebrated the year's most important awards event.
Once known as "America's tuning fork", the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame hailed the bandjo-playing singer by writing "with the possible exception of Woody Guthrie, Seeger is the greatest influence on folk music of the last century".
Among the well- known performers who credit Seeger as an inspiration include Bob Dylan, the Byrds, Peter, Paul and Mary, Emmylou Harris, Bruce Springsteen, who once praised him by saying " a living archive of America's music and conscience, a testament of the power of song and culture to nudge history along" and Joan Baez who once said "We owe our careers to Pete Seeger". In another tribute, Woody Guthrie's son, Arlo once said "Every kid who ever sat around a campfire singing an old song is indebted in some way to Pete Seeger".
The recipient of the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, National Medal of Arts, Kennedy Center honoree and member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Seeger wrote or co-wrote a number of enduring songs, including"Where Have All The Flowers Gone", "If I Had A Hammer""Turn, Turn, Turn", and "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine". He also helped popularize "We Shall Overcome", the ant hemic song during the 1960s Civil Rights Movement.
During Seeger's illustrious career, Seeger performed with his band, The Weavers, with Ronnie Gilbert, Lee Hays and Fred Hellerman, collaborated with Woody Guthrie, was a popular fixture on public radio and during the 1940s blacklisted during the McCarthy Era for his socialist philosophy, appeared in full length movies and documentaries and more recently, performed at the Presidential inauguration for President Barack Obama at age 91 and marched with Occupy Wall Street in 2011.
Seeger also won the Grammy Award for Best Traditional Folk Album in 1997, another in 2008 for Best Traditional Album and again in 2010 for Best Children's Album. In all, Seeger recorded 85 albums, and five singles with his first album "American Folk Songs For Children" released in 1953.
Although Seeger was convicted by for contempt by Congress in 1961 for refusing to answer questions before the House Committee on Un-American Activities and censored from commercial broadcasting for 17 years, he defended himself by saying
"I love my country very dearly, and I greatly resent the implication that some of the places that I have sung and some of the people that I have known, and some of my opinions, whether they are religious or philosophical, make me less of an American."
Pete Seeger is survived by his son Daniel, and daughters Mike and Tinya. His wife of 60 years, Toshi Aline Ohta Seeger, an acclaimed filmmaker, passed away last July.

Conflict takes flight at The Art Gallery.
COLLEGE PARK, Md. – University of Maryland's The Art Gallery, in collaboration with the Roshan Center for Persian Studies, presents Shahla Arbabi's FLY ZONE. Arbabi channels her personal experiences by illustrating the bittersweet dualities of the horrific and the nostalgic aspects of war and conflict.
Shahla Arbabi's FLY ZONE series offers an unflinching look into conflict. Large figures of soldiers with rifles and plumes of detonated bombs cover the canvas. In FLY ZONE, Arbabi successfully avoids any softness and ambiguity usually seen in abstract works and faces the atrocities of combat head on. The chaos and uncertainty of war roar through Arbabi's work as machine guns are juxtaposed into towers, and a photo of a young child running naked is manipulated to look as if the deadly mushroom cloud behind her is only moments away from consuming her.
However, the conflict that is born from war can also cultivate peace. Pigeon Houses, one series of the many that comprise FLY ZONE, underscores the anticipation for peace while recognizing that as long as war continues, true peace is but a hope. There is a tension between harmony and violence in Pigeon Houses that is enacted by Arbabi's ability to transform doves into warplanes. Still, the pieces reach further by conjuring the yearning for peace that plagues the survivors of warzones. Helen Frederick, Professor at the School of Art and Design at George Mason University and contributor to the exhibition catalog for FLY ZONE writes: "The metaphor [Arbabi] portrays in her paintings and constructions of the missing pigeons and doves stand in for peace that also is missing. In placing fighter jets over the pigeon houses, Arbabi creates a tense juxtaposition of something truly longed for but no longer possible". Upon viewing Pigeon Houses, Arbabi's nostalgic yearning for the peacefulness of safe refuge, much like the houses, is shared by artist and active viewer; a place that is free of bombs, warplanes, and pain.
Arbabi's mixed media works and small works on paper continue to explore how youthful memories of peace and horrific scenes of violence can exist simultaneously where content meets allegory. In the Oil Wreck series, ink, paper, and various
types of paint are converted into collages to symbolize the bloody conflict over oil, allowing the viewer to see multiple hidden and revealed images each time a work is viewed.
FLY ZONE strives to express the voice of the civilian during conflict. Each image is powerful and, at times, painful to consider. Here the viewer is asked to engage the silent witness of war and is forced to consider their defenselessness and fragility. It is in that reflection that the audience can begin to empathize and acknowledge the vulnerability of the survivor.
Shahla Arbabi is a painter and mixed media artist whose work has been featured in over thirty solo and over forty group exhibitions. She has exhibited widely in Europe and the United States, both in private galleries and in such prestigious venues as the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. Her work has been the subject of numerous studies of contemporary painting and can be found in more than two dozen private and public collections, including the permanent holdings of the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, of the Friends of Art and Preservation in Embassies, as well as The Washington Post and of the Carnegie Institute.
The public opening reception for the exhibition will be held on Tuesday, March 27, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. The exhibition will remain open to the public through Saturday, April 28, 2012. An exhibition catalog featuring an essay on Arbabi's work by Professor at the School of Art and Design at George Mason University Helen Frederick will be available to purchase. Please join The Art Gallery as we celebrate Maryland Day and FLY ZONE with a special reading from candidates from the University of Maryland's English Department's Masters of Fine Arts in Creative Writing on April 28, 2012 from 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. The Art Gallery is located at 2202 Art-Sociology Building on the University of Maryland College Park campus. Please visit www.artgallery.umd.edu or call 301-405-2763 for more information.
The Art Gallery is supported by a grant from the Maryland State Arts Council, an agency dedicated to cultivating a vibrant cultural community where the arts thrive. Funding for the Maryland State Arts Council is also provided by the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency, which believes that a great nation deserves great art. The gallery is also supported in part by the College of Arts and Humanities, the University, as well as national, state and local arts agencies, foundations, corporations, and private donors.

The morning of Monday, April 19, 2010 started off with a bang for those running RechargeColorado.com. The website launched at 8:00 in the morning and proceeded to crash only about thirty minutes after. Thankfully, administrators and other keepers of the website speedily got the program back up and running.
Throughout the day, the website and phone lines received heavy traffic. About 10,000 people were able to successfully contact the website reservation and call centers.
The GEO (Government Energy Office) is expecting consumers to quickly snag the Energy Star dishwasher, clothes washer and refrigerator deals. Rebates for furnaces and hot water heaters are moving along at a steady pace. As for tankless water heaters, the rebates were snatched up very quickly and are all sold out. However, for those who would still like to try for a tankless water heater rebate, they can sign up on a wait list.

In an effort to stabilize the bullpen, the Miami Marlins have added two veteran relievers to the equation. They acquired RHP Bryan Morris from the Pittsburgh Pirates for a Competitive Balance A Round draft pick (No. 39 overall).
The 27-year-old Morris appeared in 21 games for the Pirates this season, going 4-0 with a 3.80 ERA (23.2 IP/10 ER). He was originally acquired by the Pirates in the Manny Ramirez trade back in 2008; a trade that send Ramirez from Boston to the Los Angeles Dodgers and Jason Bay from Pittsburgh to Boston.
Morris made his Major League debut with the Pirates in September of 2012 and has posted a 5-7 record and a 3.46 ERA prior to this season.
Morris said he was in Los Angeles with his wife during the Pirates' series against the Dodgers when he heard about being traded. It was a surprise, but a good surprise.
"It was unexpected, but I'm very excited," Morris said. "It's a young, energetic team, and I'm glad to be a part of it. I'm gonna take it and try to run with it, and hopefully I get the job done."
What makes Morris valuable is his versatility. He can come in as a middle reliever and pitch two more if Redmond needs him to.
"I think that's what's so attractive when you talk about guys," Redmond said. "That versatility is not bringing up a rookie to try and see what he's got. We know the stuff he has. Now it's just a matter of him getting out there and pitching."
It's also important to fix the bullpen with veterans who have experience in the most stressful innings rather than just call up rookies in a fashion similar to throwing a dart at a map.
"This guy's been through it. He's pitched in big games and done quite a few different roles, "Redmond said. "He brings that experience where we can get him out there in any situation -- for me -- and let him go out there and pitch."
The slot value for the No. 39 pick is worth $1.4 million, which will go toward signing Kevin Gregg, who has agreed to sign a minor league deal to return to the Marlins. News of Gregg's pending signing was first reported by Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports.
The Marlins have not yet confirmed the signing as a physical is pending. Gregg was the Marlins' closer in 2007-08, collecting 61 saves in 74 opportunities. Gregg saved 33 out of 38 games with the Chicago Cubs last season and has 177 career saves.
Once the deal is official, Gregg will report to the Marlins Spring Training/minor league complex in Jupiter, Fla., where he will spend about a week getting ready to join the team.
Arquimedes Caminero was sent down to Triple-A New Orleans to make room for Morris. Chris Hatcher will likely be the one who is sent down for Gregg when he's ready solely on the basis of being the only true expendable reliever in the Marlins bullpen.
The injury to Carter Capps -- who will be evaluated by Dr. James Andrews on Wednesday to discuss the possibility of Tommy John surgery – put the Marlins bullpen in a pickle. Both Gregg and Morris will provide Redmond with more options to set up closer Steve Cishek, who is on his way to making an All-Star appearance.
Cishek has a case to be an All-Star for the first time in his career with 29 strikeouts in 22.2 innings and a 1.15 WHIP.
"What makes him stand out more than anybody is the fact that he's so funky," Marlins reliever Dan Jennings said. "I've never hit off Steve before but I think when you talk to guys who hit off them, they'd say that they're uncomfortable because it feels like the ball's coming from third base when he throws it."
Cishek converted 11 out of 12 saves, which is tied for ninth most among National League closers. Trevor Rosenthal of the St. Louis Cardinals and Addison Reed of the Arizona Diamondbacks each have more saves than Cishek but also sport an ERA over 4.00. So the saves category, while the most important stat for a closer, isn't necessarily the overall statistical decider for closers.
"We had some games where we scored a ton of runs in some of our wins," Jennings said, "which is awesome for us. It takes a little pressure off of us. But we're getting those wins without needing a save. So it's tough to just factor in saves. It's just one of those things that you could be the best pitcher in the world and you might have three saves versus somebody else who might have struggled and get 10 saves."
Only San Diego Padres closer Houston Street has yet to blow a save in the National League while appearing in about as many games as Cishek. But most closers are being judged on the Craig Kimbrel standard. For good reason to; the Atlanta Braves closer has 37 strikeouts in just 20.1 innings
"He throws 100 mph and has one of the best sliders in the game," said Braves third baseman Chris Johnson. "He's not afraid of going after anybody. You saw when Stanton came up he threw him some heaters. Those closers aren't scared of anybody and that's Craig's mentality."
Cishek rebounded nicely against the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday after giving up two tie-breaking runs to the Braves on Sunday's loss. Francisco Rodriguez and Sergio Romo (NL leading 17 saves) proves that every closer deserves a mulligan or two.
His interestingly "funky" delivery makes him incredibly deadly in times of first impressions. While the fans vote for the All-Star starting lineups, the managers (those who appeared in the previous World Series) pick the pitchers. If National League manager Mike Matheny wants to win home field advantage for his Cardinals – or the Marlins – in the World Series, he brings in Cishek in the ninth.

Mitch Reviews: Dead Space 3
Does Dead Space 3 still play off of scares and thrills or is it now completely bang-bang pew-pew? Read on to see if Dead Space still has what it takes to force you to invest in new underwear.
Dead Space 3 follows series protagonist Isaac Clarke as he is once again called on to fight Necromorphs and end the Markers existence, being the only person who knows how to create and destroy them after events witnessed in 2.
The story is engrossing and well-paced with much more dialogue and characters than in the previous titles. You follow Isaac as he sets out on a journey to save Ellie, his now ex-girlfriend from the second game, with co-op partner John Carver and a handful of other characters including Ellie's new boyfriend, Robert Norton, captain of the rescue mission.
With Isaac being the only person who can destroy the Markers and has the most experience with Necromorphs, but unwilling to to do so as he wants to be rid of the nightmares, issues and strain that they have put on his personal life, it makes for an extremely interesting game to see how Isaac copes with the threat of dying, of losing Ellie and of losing his mind.
With the standard spiel consisting of 'dismember this, dismember that', it is easy to see why people think that the series has taken a more action-orientated approach. Sadly, the marketing has not done the game justice as the frights and gruesome-looking Necromorphs are still present and the entire game is very reminiscent of Dead Space 2 and, though I know I may be in the minority, I believed this to be the stronger title over the first installment.
Missing is the clunkiness of its predecessors which has now been replaced by a much more robust and smoother feeling method of gameplay, allowing you to crouch and roll to evade charging Necromorphs, gun-wielding humans and those hugely irritating dog-like Necromorphs who stalk you from behind cover. This adds a new layer of depth which was missing from the original Dead Space titles and now battles feel much more frantic and fast-paced as you'll be rolling around to avoid being cut in half or from having your head blown off by enemy fire.
Weapon crafting is the newly introduced feature that is on everybody's tongue at the moment, allowing you to create and upgrade weapons by collecting materials strewn around the levels, or achieved by completing side-missions. This works really well and allows you to experiment with some crazy ideas such as equipping a mini flamethrower to a high-tech pistol handed to you at the beginning of the game but sadly, you will have to play through several repetitive side-missions consisting of killing many Necromorphs to collect the loot at the end.
Sadly, puzzles are still as easy as they were in previous titles, relying on enemies to make things harder for you rather than a mind-boggling puzzle that rewards you for solving it. The most common offender of these being sections when you are forced to use your Kinesis to move things into position just to have several Necromorphs attack you because they are clearly shocked that you would dare move their beautiful arrangements.
The first thing I noticed was how well animated facial expressions are because, despite how well they were in the second installment, they were still fairly clunky and stiff. This has added a new layer of realism that benefits the game as it allows you to grow more attached to the characters and Isaac's plight to save Ellie.
The art is gorgeous and aids in helping the atmosphere to unsettle you as there are many bloody walls, abandoned areas where life had previously clearly bustled and the new planet, Tau Volantis, which adds a snowy area to break up the dank, gloomy areas that are found on stranded spaceships. Sadly, Tau Volantis is a mostly wide, plain stretch of land and whilst the snow looks good, I think more time should have been spent on making Tau Volantis a much more memorable planet as it seems that scares were traded for snow.
Necromorphs look repulsive as expected with their elongated limbs, bloody bodies and all the tiny little details that make them look as if they've crawled straight out from within your nightmares. Sadly, you'll be too busy trying to kill them or run away due to lack of ammo that you won't be able to focus on what makes Necromorphs so terrifying but hopefully, if you can stop yourself from stomping on them for a few seconds, you'll be able to see what makes them stand out and it may help you to put yourself in Isaac's position, to see what he's really fighting against.
Every horror game worth its money needs a captivating atmosphere aided by eerie sounds and a bone-chilling musical score. Luckily, Dead Space oozes atmosphere and its partially thanks to the great audio where you'll hear Necromorphs scuttle through vents, weak moans from around corners and music that tells you that something is going to happen and, though you expect it, it doesn't lessen the fright.
A great horror game should make you hesitate from turning a corner or entering a room due to the frightening sounds beyond, something that the Dead Space series has always excelled at, and I'd recommend that if you're playing this at night, alone, that you keep a spare set of underwear with you.
Lasting Appeal
My first playthrough of the campaign lasted 9 hours and 55 minutes with various side-missions finished but there were still several to do once I had finished; they were interesting enough for me to re-visit Tau Volantis and the dark corridors of abandoned spaceships.
The main reason to re-visit Dead Space 3 will be to replay the game again in co-op, which delves deeper into Carver's story and further establishes his character, or to retrieve all collectibles such as audio logs, text logs, etc, to gather all the trophies/achievements.
I recommend Dead Space 3 to fans of the series, especially the second title, as it is a highly enjoyable, tense and thrilling ride with a satisfying climax.

Burning 1500 calories a day is often a common aim for people who want to lose weight as fast as possible. To lose 1 pound of body fat you need to burn 3500 calories per week or simply 500 calories per day. Most of the health professionals advise to lose not more than 2 pounds in a week. At this rate you can lose approximately 8 pounds per month which is decent enough. If you wish to burn 1500 calories in a day you should not only work hard to increase your physical activity and exercise but also carefully watch what you eat.
Since obesity has become a major health concern in today's world, people of all ages are now becoming more aware of their overall health and fitness levels. Therefore, it is common to see people join a fitness center or follow a weight loss program, which provides them with the help and support they need, to achieve their ideal weight goal. It is a fairly well known fact that the best way to lose weight is by following a healthy and nutritious diet, eliminating excessive fats from the diet and getting an adequate amount of exercise every day. However, there are some people, who follow extreme measures for weight loss purposes, which may include starving themselves or exercising for 4 to 5 hours each day. While this may help a person lose a huge amount of weight in a short span of time, it could have some serious health repercussions.
Therefore, it is best for a person to know what the difference between their current weight and their ideal weight is and then work towards losing the excessive weight at a sensible pace. While the ideal amount of weight that should be lost in a week may vary for different people, based on their age, gender and body weight, most people aim at a weight loss goal of around one pound per week. In order to do this, a person needs to burn or reduce 500 calories each day, from their total caloric requirement for the day. Health experts usually advise an average person to consume at least 1500 calories a day, if not more. Therefore, in order to lose one pound in the week, people who are supposed to eat 1500 calories per day can either consume only 1000 calories a day, or can stick to their 1500 calories per day meal plan and then burn off 500 calories by working out. However, some people find both these methods to be a bit of a challenge. Therefore, they reduce around 200 to 300 calories from their food intake and then burn off the remaining calories during a workout session.
Many men and women have been known to ask their trainers, "if I consume 1500 calories a day how much weight loss can I aim for, in a week or month?". However, it is important to understand that weight loss is dependent on the foods that are eaten, as well as the levels of activity in a person. Several people have successfully followed a diet that comprises of 1500 calories a day to lose weight. However, the success ratio is largely influenced by several other lifestyle factors.
There are many people, who express surprise, when they are asked to consume around six meals everyday, which come up to 1500 calories a day to lose weight. They often wonder or even clarify with the fitness expert "isn't the consumption of 6 meals and 1500 calories a day too much?". However, studies indicate that a person can lose weight at a faster pace, by consuming smaller meals at frequent intervals, instead of eating three large meals. Moreover, for the people who wonder "is eating 1500 calories a day healthy?", it is important to realize that the calories consumed each day should come from healthy foods, like fresh fruits, vegetables, cereals, whole grains, low fat dairy products and lean and skinless poultry; the consumption of fat, oil, refined flour and sweets should be limited.
Most dieticians and fitness experts recommend the consumption of 1500 calories per day for women who are of an average build and weight. However, the caloric requirement for women who are overweight or those who follow a strenuous workout regime may differ significantly. Moreover, women who are pregnant definitely need to increase their intake of calories. Therefore, it is absolutely important to check with a doctor, it the consumption of 1500 calories a day while pregnant is acceptable or not.
Following a "1500 calories a day male diet plan" may not be appropriate for all men, based on the person's age, fitness level, metabolic rate, etc. Moreover some men may be asked to consume 1500 calories per day to lose weight, with a different menu, as compared to a woman's diet plan. Nevertheless it is best to receive an approval from a doctor, as well as a dietician, before switching over to a diet that consist of 1500 calories a day for men.
Burning between 200 and 300 calories within an hour is relative simple for an average person who weighs approximately 200 pounds. However, several people like to enhance their workout regime, so that they remain motivated towards their weight loss goals. Therefore, such people generally look for option on how to burn 1000 calories in 1 hour. It is only natural that the levels of physical activity required will be much higher, in order to burn so many calories within a short span of time. Therefore, it is best to check with a doctor, before trying out any of the options given below, on how to burn 1000 calories an hour:
• Jumping ropes: 1200 calories an hour (good for burning 1200 calories a day)• Mountain biking: 1020 calories an hour• Playing racquetball: 1200 calories an hour • Vigorous stationary rowing: 1020 calories an hour
Many people are interested in options on how to burn 1000 calories per day mainly because they want to lose a pound a week, but can only work out around 3 or 4 times a week. Given below are also a few techniques on how to burn 1000 calories at the gym, in a workout session.
• Lifting weights can help a person burn up to 500 calories • The cardio routine should be changed, to include a stationary bike or running on the treadmill, to burn an additional 100 calories • Including a second cardio session of either rollerblading or climbing stairs, which can burn 300 calories • A session of alternate running and walking, to burn 150 calories.
Several people do not have the time or the resources to work out at a fitness center. Hence, it is best to get advice from a professional trainer on how to burn 1000 calories at home. People who prefer a specific form of aerobic exercise can also check with the trainer on how to burn 1000 calories walking, running or jogging. There is not much of a difference in the number of calories burned walking and running.
People who are interested in losing weight but cannot workout more than twice or maybe three times are week are often heard asking for ways and means for burning 1500 calories a day. Some of the best exercises that can help a person to burn 1500 calories a day are rollerblading, tennis, basketball, swimming laps and cross country skiing. However, the time duration for different people to burn 1500 calories may vary, based on their body weight, gender, age and metabolic rate.
Some people also look for options on how to burn 2500 calories a day. However, it is best to get a doctor's approval before trying to burn around 2500 calories in one day.

|In TranZit, use an alternative mode of transportation.
Search all 3 turbine parts in the starting room of TranZit and put them together at the workbench. Now pick up the turbine and go outside. There is a lantern on the street to the left. Place the turbine under the lantern and it should start to emit a green light. Go into the fog and one of the goblin creatures ("denizen of the forest") should latch onto you. Move to the lantern quickly and the goblin will jump down and turn into a portal. Jump into the portal to be teleported to a random place.

WOW you guys are something else...matter of of fact is that if you ordered the game from amazon or best buy online you got the game the thursday b4 it came out...and no you will not be fined if you play it early as-long as you have a legal copy of the game...this is true as about 13 ppl i know got it at the same time from Amazon (thursday). at that point it was only playable on campaign ..the online servers didn't come on till this past sunday..there fore you will see ppl with level 30+ the night or day it comes out...so back to my point..don't be so quick to judge and hate on someone when they say they have already gotten the trophy b4 the games release..perhaps he had not sync'd his trophies yet and thats why you didn't see them (just a thought)..on final thought STOP READING IN TO PPLZ

first turn on the power,then go to the misty areas.a small zombie will be attached to you.you have to go to a green light with the zombie attached to you.then the small zombie will leave you and create a hole in the ground.simply jump in the hole and the trophy is yours.

Okay guys I got this, build the turbine in the bus depot, go outside, place turbine next to the street lamp(it's behind the bus), lamp will light up(if correctly placed, go into the mist/fog when you hear a denizen run back to the lamp and it should dig a hole under said lamp and a portal appears, jump through and you end up in a random location, worked for me. Just do this on round one leaving one zombie alive makes it easier.

This is easy, all you do is put a turbine under a street lamp, wait till it turns green (leave turbine under lamp), now run into the mist and get one of those creepy big headed things on your head (dont kill him) then walk him over to the lamp and he should jump in. Then a portal should open up, you can get into it by jumping into it. Your welcome

Lisa Vanderpump and the cast of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" had a rough fourth season, filled with lost friendships, she-said, she-said, and tons of drama. And while filming wrapped several months ago, the cast is now having to deal with seeing everything play out on the show -- and in the media.
For most of the women, having to go through everything twice has been quite a trying experience, and for Lisa, she's totally over talking about it.
According to a March 13 report by Wetpaint Entertainment, Lisa is ready to move on.
"Lets not talk about the season anymore," the restauranteur told her fans on Twitter. "We have to move on. I have a bag to find and a restaurant to open. Thank you all though #amazingsupport."
While the drama of season four has been great for the show's ratings, it hasn't been great for Lisa. Throughout the year, she's lost a handful of friends, including Brandi Glanville and Yolanda Foster, and continues to be at odds with the rest of her cast mates -- everyone except for Joyce Giraud, who is reportedly leaving the series next year.
As for the upcoming season, that is surely something Lisa doesn't even want to think about at the moment, but hopefully, as the producers recast, someone will come aboard that can team up with Lisa.

Indeed, C2 in the 21st century is much more than a linear progression through new and better technologies, systems, and platforms. It is not just fancier, high-definition color computer displays and better communication circuits. Today's and especially tomorrow's C2 represent a generational change in human brain circuitry. For instance, we can fantasize about a future common operational picture, where inter-service and inter-agency assets are able to gather, fuse, process, validate, and display data in real time and within a globally accessible, common environment. But we cannot reach such a Nirvana by focusing on updates to legacy equipment. We have to envision a new 21st-century non-linear process that is being revolutionized in the brains of our young Sailors and officers. In that, we seniors confront stark alternatives. We must lead or get out of the way.
The Millennium Challenge
We all know who the "Gen-Xers" are. They are the children of the Baby Boomers, born roughly between 1965 and 1990. But the linear/non-linear challenge we confront in 2008 is embodied in even younger kids—the "Millenniums"—born after the dawn of the Internet. They are pioneering the most significant social and cultural change in human history. And, for the Navy, the Millennium Sailors who are just now entering the Fleet are going to revolutionize the way the service thinks and fights.
Millennium Sailors are creatures of the cyber world. Their minds are hard-wired in a way even the Gen-Xers find hard to understand. They were born with laptops in their hands. Their best friend is a guy called "Cyber Dude," whom they might not have ever met in the same room—indeed, they "live" in virtual chat rooms. Their minds are programmed to think collaboratively and multi-task with non-linear tools the Internet makes available to all. Frankly, there is no way their Baby-Boomer seniors are ever going to understand them or catch up to them. The best we can hope for is to harness their abilities, impart the accumulated wisdom from our years in the trenches, and cut them loose to do the massive job of plugging us into the 21st century.
Imagine the Navy's allure to such motivated kids. The Navy's recruiting commercials and posters say it all. Depicting the most powerful warships and aircraft ever created, the caption reads: "Accelerate your life!" Your career will dance to the click of your own fingertips, we tell them. Your mission is to make the greatest nation in the world safe from its enemies using way-beyond-Star Wars technologies of computers, satellites, lasers, and drones. You will not need to play "World of War Craft." You can be a real warrior, fighting in a real war.
But when we get them into the Fleet, the disconnect between what they were promised and what they find will be profoundly disappointing—a veritable bait and switch scheme. They will discover that our "leading-edge-of-the-shelf" and "state-of the-art" technology is at best ancient. They will realize that the dazzling career they envisioned will be largely spent operating and fixing antiquated equipment that is down more than it is up. Their collaborative world will be lost at sea when bandwidth restrictions close their access to that world. This is a disaster, and we the Navy—and the other services, as well—will not be able to keep them in. They will be lining up to leave just as fast as they signed up.
Their Baby-Boom and Gen-X seniors will be perplexed at their ingratitude. To us, the capabilities on board our ships are cutting edge. But our young Sailors and officers have been playing with even more cutting-edge technology in video games since they first held a controller or mouse. There is no longer a divide between work and play. Our Millennium Sailors need to be on line and connected 24/7. Instead, we are falling further behind the capabilities of the civilian marketplace, and the cost of maintaining our legacy systems is prohibiting investment in the high-tech innovations that the Millennium generation has come to expect, almost as a birthright.
Real-World Challenges
Consider the Arleigh Burke -class Aegis guided-missile destroyer. It is one of the most sophisticated and capable fighting ships the world has ever seen. With its advanced SPY-1 radar, 96 vertical-launch tubes armed with a variety of long-range weapons, an advanced sonar system and antisubmarine warfare capabilities, it has everything a naval warrior could want. Consider, now, the Blackberry that has become ubiquitous in our culture. The two-way communication bandwidth of a single Blackberry is three times greater than the bandwidth of the entire Arleigh Burke destroyer. Looked at another way, the Navy's most modern in-service multi-mission warship has only five percent of the bandwidth we have in our home Internet connection. And the bandwidth it does have must be shared among the crew and combat systems: the C5ISR conundrum. The recruiting posters promise, "Accelerate your life!" but the best we can do is "decelerate" access to information.
The Economist summarized the challenge: "If Napoleon's armies marched on their stomachs, American ones march on bandwidth." During the past ten years we have seen an explosive growth in commercial bandwidth, and each year the Navy's connectivity falls further and further behind. By 2014, our homes will have 250 times more bandwidth than a DDG, and 100 times more than the next-generation aircraft carrier. We have to reverse this trend. And if we want the Navy to become a more interactive, collaborative, and effective fighting force, we have to leverage the innate collaborative nature of our Millennium Sailors.
The opportunity is there for the taking. As computing capabilities continue to grow exponentially, the costs of computers, servers, storage, and software are coming down. Across the commercial industry worldwide, IT budgets are actually declining as capacity goes up. But in the Navy, the opposite is taking place.
A recent cost-performance analysis of Navy-wide networking and C2 program costs during the past 20 years showed that we are stuck in "proprietary gridlock." As a technology matures, we pay increasingly more over time because we are linked to only a few vendors who build highly integrated systems—where the software and hardware are tightly coupled and where interoperability between two or more systems is gained only by building costly middleware. Our IT culture is constrained by vendors, and competition is discouraged. This path is unsustainable and cannot continue.
Moreover, every system we field takes nearly seven years to reach the Fleet. By the time it gets to the people who need it, it is already out of date. There is no agility or flexibility in our IT. Complicating the Navy's future is our exposure to increasingly insidious and dangerous cyber threats. Our network security is becoming significantly more vulnerable. We are falling further and further behind, and we are spending more and more money in the process. In six years, the Navy will have to double its IT budget—about $5 billion in Fiscal Year 2008—just to maintain the same capability we have today. This is unaffordable, and the way the Navy does business must change.
Adapt or Die
We must fix this. First, we have to recognize that the Navy needs to adapt: the Millenniums will not adapt to us. Second, we have to completely redesign our network architecture. We have to release the stranglehold of proprietary interests and separate our data, hardware, and applications. We need a network architecture that is agile and can be upgraded rapidly. It must be flexible, with the ability to accommodate the expected exponential increase in demand. The commercial industry calls it "open architecture." It will allow both a reduction in costs, and more important, the seamless use of data. It will provide better data protection and increased network security. Quite simply, it is the method by which our Millennium warfighters must fight collaboratively and effectively.
Our first step in implementing this new network architecture is taking the idea to sea. The Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services (CANES) system is today the best way to achieve an open, agile, flexible, and affordable network architecture that will carry us well into the 21st century. CANES allows us to break up the proprietary stranglehold among data, hardware, and applications, and to consolidate our networks into a single suite of survivable common hardware capable of hosting a wide variety of real-time combat support applications. Finally, CANES embraces cross-domain solutions that enable enhanced movement of data. This will provide a network architecture that is truly open, secure, reliable, and capable. It is a revolutionary change in our IT infrastructure, and it is absolutely vital for us if we are to excel in 21st century warfare. But this is much more than just an idea—it is being realized in the operating forces.
In addition to CANES, there are several other ways the Navy is tackling the bandwidth issue. For example, the Commercial Broadband Satellite Program will allow our ships to access civilian satellites and increase the amount of two-way communication capability. Additionally, ships are being upgraded with the Automated Digital Network System router, which will significantly change the way bandwidth is allocated among our ships and Sailors. These two will combine to make significant improvements in connecting our Millennium Sailors with the rest of the world.
Winning the Millennium War
This transformation is not easy and it is not cheap. We are spending billions of dollars to modernize the Fleet to catch up to and keep pace with the civilian technology sector. For affordability alone, the Navy must adopt this new way of thinking and transform our network architecture, all while maintaining the functionality of systems already employed by the Fleet.
The Cold War is over. We stood on the front lines against formidable adversaries and prevailed. But a new age of warfare is upon us. The need for rapid information exchange is fundamental to winning it. We have to adapt and improve as we continue to protect our nation.
Our Millennium Sailors need an open architecture to connect to the world and with each other. As the Millenniums rise through the ranks, an infrastructure must be in place that is synchronized with their thought processes. Data must be readily available. Communications cannot be delayed, and the system must always be secure. The future of our nation's security depends on this. When our Millennium Sailor becomes the Millennium admiral, she or he must be capable of winning the Millennium war.

Moderator Note: At the time that this question was posted, it was from an ongoing contest. The relevant deadline has now passed.
In the $xy$ plane, suppose $M_{i,j}=\{(x,y)\mid i\le x\le j\}$. For $i= 1,2,3,\ldots, 2012$, color $M_{i,i+1}$ red if $i$ is even and blue if $i$ is odd. For a convex polygon $P$ in the plane, let $d(P)$ denote the fraction of its area that is red. Consider polygons that lie completely in the region $M_{0,2013}$ and that have at least one vertex on each of the lines $x=0$ and $x=2013$. What is the minimum value of $d(P)$ over all non-degenerate convex polygons of this type?

Makes 2 Servings.
- 1 cup (4 oz.) Leerdammer® cheese, grated
- 2 red peppers, stalk and seeds removed
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- 2 onions, chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
- 2 oz. tomatoes, canned
- 1/2 cup vegetable stock
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Halve the peppers. Press flat and place under a hot grill until skin is blackened. Place in a bowl, cover in cling film and leave to cool.
Heat the oil in a large pan, add the onions and garlic. Cook for 3 -4 minutes or until soft.
When the peppers have cooled, remove the discard blackened skin and roughly chop the flesh. Add the peppers and tomatoes to the pan. Stir in the stock, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
Purée the soup in a blender and pour back into a clean sauce pan. Gently heat through.
To serve, pour the soup into warmed bowls and divide the Leerdammer® between the bowls, sprinkling it on top in a small pile.
