Huddersfield 1 Blackpool 1: Delfouneso injury-time strike denies Terriers
Substitute Nathan Delfouneso struck deep in stoppage time for Blackpool to deny Huddersfield a first win in eight games as an entertaining npower Championship clash finished 1-1 at the John Smith's Stadium.
Anthony Gerrard's first goal for the club looked to have ended Huddersfield's barren run but the Seasiders were excellent value for at least a point.
The visitors bombarded their opponent's goal for an hour, but a combination of bad luck and poor finishing looked like giving the Terriers a first clean sheet since their last victory against Barnsley back on November 10.
Late: Delfouneso rescued a point for Blackpool with an injury-time strike

Att: 16,832
Ref: Nigel Miller (Durham).
Blackpool should have been out of sight by half-time, with the home side unable to find a method of breaking up their stylish attacking play.
Gary Taylor-Fletcher wasted two glorious openings in the first 90 seconds against his former club. Chris Basham played him in with the first move of the game, but the 31-year-old miscued his shot high and wide with only goalkeeper Alex Smithies to beat.
Moments later good work down the left from Wes Thomas provided Taylor-Fletcher with a free header six yards out but he nodded wide.
Liverpool target Thomas Ince played in Tiago Gomes after six minutes, but the Portuguese midfielder had his effort blocked by home captain Peter Clarke.
A minute later Ince played glorious one-twos with Gomes and Taylor-Fletcher as the visitors broke from halfway, but the winger fired over from the edge of the box.
Thomas drilled wide after 14 minutes as Blackpool's relentless pressure continued, while Huddersfield's best moment of the first half came when Sean Scannell's low cross deflected to the feet of James Vaughan, only for the Norwich loanee to fail to get the ball under control allowing Blackpool to clear their lines.
Header: Anthony Gerrard gave the home side the lead midway through the second half
The best chance of the opening 45 minutes came on 19 minutes when midfielder Isaiah Osbourne powerfully bundled past two Huddersfield defenders only to skew his shot wide from six yards.
Clarke's miscued clearance fell to Osbourne and Ince played in Thomas, who curled over from 12 yards, while moments later Alex Baptiste fluffed his lines when a Stephen Crainey corner fell to him in the six-yard box and the right-back shot harmlessly over the crossbar.
Ince finally managed to beat Smithies five minutes before half-time, but full-back Calum Woods was on hand to clear off the line, before Anthony Gerrard turned Alex Baptiste's cross just wide of his own post.
Blackpool continued to press after the break - the lively Thomas cutting from the left and curling a 20-yard effort which Smithies did well to turn behind.
Drought: Huddersfield were denied their first win in eight games
Huddersfield gradually began to display some attacking threat, and Jermaine Beckford - having extended his loan from Everton on Christmas Eve - should have celebrated with a goal when he headed Jack Hunt's deep cross wide from five yards just after the hour mark.
Gerrard made Blackpool pay for their profligacy on 66 minutes when he rose highest to head home Adam Clayton's corner.
Blackpool's previous attacking threat quickly wilted after that and the home side might have added a second as they grew in confidence - Beckford almost finding the net with an audacious effort from 30 yards 10 minutes from time.
But late on Ince showed why Liverpool are eager to land the 20-year-old in January as he wove past two players to get to the by-line and cut back for Delfouneso, who made no mistake from six yards.

A bomb threat was called into Columbus Municipal School District this morning.
An unidentified male called the CMSD bus shop at 7:15 this morning saying, "the middle school will blow up at 8 a.m.," according to Deputy Superintendent Craig Shannon.
Shannon said school buses were rerouted to Cook Elementary School. Students who were already at the school were also transported to Cook, Shannon said.
The Lowndes County Sheriff's Department responded to the scene at 175 Hwy. 373, as well as the FBI and the Mississippi Highway Patrol. As of press time this morning, a bomb dog was searching the exterior and interior of the property, Shannon said. He expected students to return to class by 10 a.m.
Today's bomb threat was the fourth at CMS this school year. It is the second threat in two weeks.
Shannon said law enforcement has a suspect and he is confident the suspect will be apprehended soon.
"I can assure parents of this district that this will cease very soon," Shannon said. "We have a very strong suspect. He will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."

Bible Study – everyone can learn God's truth
It's time to return to Bible study. As the world becomes more unsettled and rebellious towards God, Christians might be tempted to despair. But God has given us a precious gift to anchor our souls for these very days—His Word, the Holy Bible. God's Word is the way He communicates His love, power, and care for us. We in turn, receive joy, strength, and hope when we study it. Never in the history of the world have there been more resources to help explain the sacred Scriptures, and Sacra Script has united reliable Christian scholarship with cutting-edge technology to produce innovative Bible studies just for you and your community. Bible study should not ignore the original settings of the Scriptures, they dig through the ancient context and language of the Bible, unlocking the true meaning of God's Word, which in turn, lead to a true understanding of our magnificent Creator.
Casting our anchor
Sacra Script Bible studies don't ebb and flow with the tide of modern-day culture. We have cast our anchor into the original setting of the Bible because God's truth never changes. Understanding the ancient context of God's Word means that you can uncover the timelessness of His character and redemptive plan for all believers in Christ. You will understand His-story more completely and your place in it. Studying the Bible is the key to knowing God more fully. Growth just doesn't come any other way.
Study with us
Trustworthy scholarship, simple explanations, and distinctive illustrations, maps, and timelines are the hallmark of our unique resources. Bible study that will transform your life. You'll never be sorry that you've dug deeper into God's Word. A treasure-trove of biblical truths and godly understanding awaits.
Meaningful study
Knowing God through His Word is the most wonderful treasure you will ever acquire, and any Bible study from Sacra Script can not only help you increase your biblical knowledge, but help you gain confidence in your Savior, transforming your very life as you put your Christian faith into action. Once you can grasp the overall picture of God's story through meaningful study, you will truly know who God is, through Jesus Christ. You will understand more intimately what God has done for the world, and how your soul can rest in hope for the future. Our bible studies help you learn to know God and understand the meaning of His Word. Each of our Bible studies is modeled on Christ's example of teaching as illustrated in Luke 24. When Jesus encountered a couple of his followers on the road to Emmaus, he called them foolish for not recognizing that everything that Moses and the prophets wrote concerned him (Luke 24:25-27). These followers knew the Old Testament well, but they did not understand how Jesus was the fulfillment of these Scriptures.
Like Jesus on the road to Emmaus, each Bible study that we are producing explains the meaning of Scripture (Luke 24:32). Each of our Bible studies examine the text in its original setting. We carefully explain the meaning by highlighting the necessary history, cultural issues, grammar, geography, chronology, and other helpful details. Each book of the Bible is explained within the overall story of Scripture, revealing how it points to or is fulfilled by Christ.

Cubs Bats Wake Up & Decide to Whip Giants
Brad Zapenas (2012 shoulder surgery rehab) doubled, tripled, drove-in three runs, and scored two more, Jeffrey Baez ripped a two-run double, singled, walked twice, and scored a run, and Rashad Crawford hammered a bases-loaded three-run triple, leading one squad of Cubs to a 13-7 victory over one squad of Giants on Field #3 (formerly known as Field #2), and Rony Rodriguez belted a bases-loaded three-run double, singled, and scored a run, and Justin Marra laced a two-run double, walked, and scored twice, as the other squad of Cubs defeated the other squad of Giants 7-4 on Field #4 (formerly known as Field #3), in a Cactus League Extended Spring Training doubleheader played Tuesday morning at Fitch Park in Mesa, AZ.
The game on Field #3 was called after five innings because the Giants and Cubs ran out of available pitchers (and also because it took about three hours to play the five innings and the Giants bus was ready to leave for Scottsdale).
Cubs 2010 2nd round pick Reggie Golden, who came into the game in an 0-20 skid and hitting just 045/276/091 (his only hit was a double on EXST Opening Day three weeks ago last Monday), belted an RBI double high off the CF Batter's Eye ("Green Monster") in the bottom of the 1st inning on Field #3. Golden missed most of the 2012 season after suffering two torn knee ligaments in a game at Peoria last April, and he has really struggled to get into any kind of a groove. Although he has been in a deep slump, he still somehow manages to draw a lot of walks (in fact he leads the team in BB).
Two Cubs pitchers suffered injuries in the doubleheader. RHSP Erick Leal (who was sailing along with a one-hitter on Field #4) sustained what appeared to be a right ankle injury prior to the start of the 4th inning and was subsequently helped to a golf cart and driven to the clubhouse, and just a few minutes later RHRP Daniel Adrian landed awkwardly on his left leg while tagging out a runner trying to score from 3rd base on a WP on Field #3 (the runner was out, and it was a really nifty play by Adrian, too) and was on the ground for several minutes before being carried off the field and transported to the clubhouse via golf cart. Adrian's injury did not look too good.
In EXST Cubs roster news, 3B-1B Josh Vitters has completed his rehab assignment and has returned toi the Iowa Cubs. He looked really good out here, hitting 444/636/444 with two doubles in 12 PA. He also made a super diving catch on the third-base line to save a double. Vitters was on the I-Cubs DL with a back problem, and before that he missed most of MLB Spring Training nursing a strained quad.
Ex-Oakland A's RHSP Guillermo Moscoso (claimed off waivers from Tornoto last month and then outrighted to the minors) has also been moved up to Iowa. He gave up five hits, did not allow a run, and struck out eight with no walks (and threw 76% strikes) in two Cactus League Extended Spring Training games (6.0 IP), and he struck out ten (with no walks) over five innings in an intrasquad game played at Fitch Park last Thursday (where he was stretched-out to 74 pitches, in what turned out to be his last EXST game outing).

Nobody should give a shit
Nobody should give a shit about the height of the hotel except that first ugly ass house on Addison with all the weird plastic religious shit and perhaps the first house on Patterson. There is a giant fucking stadium across the street already, who cares if they build a hotel. I'm afraid the neighborhood(Tunney) is going to protest every single fucking thing in this project, costing the Cubs valuable time and money. I lived 4 blocks from there for a decade and I wouldn't have given a shit if they built a 90 story building there. If it creates traffic, go around it or fucking walk.
well said. Nobody who lives
well said. Nobody who lives in the neighborhood can complain about the effects of living there. Wrigley has been there longer than any of them, so they moved in knowing the possible fallout. Which is an apt comparison, since if I chose to move next door to a nuclear power plant, I can't complain if my kids come out with two heads.
Most likely just a ploy, but:
"I'm not sure how anyone is going to stop the signs in the outfield, but if it comes to the point that we don't have the ability to do what we need to do in our outfield then we're going to have to consider moving," Ricketts told reporters, according to the Chicago Tribune. "It's as simple as that."

I'd love to see the look on the faces of the people in Wrigleyville when they see their newly appraised real estate values of their buildings next to an empty, decaying ballpark. Ricketts sounds frustrated, for good reason.

it probably is a ploy, but i'd love to see them move.
the too-many day games, that OF wall, the lack of parking (and the revenue that brings), the horrible player facilities, etc...all these drawbacks for a field that pretty much only looks good superficially. it's a great place to watch a game...if i was a player i dunno how i'd feel about playing 80+ games there a year...especially when most every park you visit has a better visiting clubhouses + facilities compared to the home field clubhouse + facilities at wrigley.
i will give them props for greatly improving the drainage on the field years ago, though...that was long-overdue and it was done well.

f'n cabrerra...
chapman showing up and available tomorrow night.
i'm sure he'll be a bit hit. hope he doesn't choke. dude has a rifle for an arm. he'll add a bit of punch to the bullpen.
the 'crosstown classic' sure has lost it's magic with interleague. the excitement level is barely noticable...maybe it's a bit more hype in the city, itself.
Well he didn't leave a mark so its not that bad.
Fuck that.
He choked her.
Her brother tackled him to separate him.
He cooled off by shooting his gun in the garage.
I don't have to like him on the team I follow.
And you are others are free to not give a shit about his personal misgivings if you so choose as well.
Sure, no marks and some inconsistencies in the witness's statements. But firing your gun into garage wall immediately after an argument and punching out your car window is still threatening and out of control behavior. There was certainly enough for MLB to think it warranted a 30-game suspension.
I'd prefer they be flexible with the closing situation depending on matchups. You're not really adding a lefty reliever if you use him strictly as a closer.
Stockpiling young talent isn't only for trading for someone like Chapman though. Even with an elite closer winning the World Series is basically a crap shoot so the key is to get to the playoffs as much as possible and not just mortgage everything on one year. Once you get there an elite bullpen certainly helps but the playoffs can be won by one hitter or starting pitcher getting hot (Murphy, Molina, Baumgardner) and a closer might not be able to stop that.
I'm also not crazy about press convictions. As the police report noted, there were no marks on the lady in question. There's a TMZ link (of course) to her police pictures, as well.
I think the only way this trade goes real bad is if Cubbery intervenes and Chapman is suddenly bad for some reason.
I am right there with you closing in on 60.
I don't care that much about "mortgaging" one player who is not only blocked by two guys, but is not ready to hit the majors for at least a couple years.
There is no reason why this team, this year, can't have a real shot at something NONE of us have experienced.
Further, I don't feel that even if they fall short that they have ruined their farm system.
I have made my opinion clear here, with others, Warren was shit on the Cubs save one spot start.
Trading for Warren, Warren sucking, getting Warren back for Chapman plus 3 prospects, sounds like Revenge of The Yankees on the former Boston executive. Old rivalries never die.
I pray to the heavens above Chapman doesn't suck for some reason, or he'll be booed out of town faster than a Todd Hundley revival meeting.
I'm kind of nostalgic for the Schwarber-for-Miller rumors.
This offseason, after some ridiculous playoff run and Chapman saving every game from here until the end of the postseason striking out 27/9innings, I welcome anyone to quote this thread and call me a dummy: I hate this trade, and my hate is 2 parts Chapman makes this team less likeable and 1 part that's a ridiculous overpay for 30 regular season innings and, at tops, 10 postseason innings. Already hoping they don't extend him.
btw...Thanks AZ Phil. I'm really enjoying your take on this trade.
I'm a bit disappointed on the Warren experience. Essentially they gave Castro away for crickets (OK, well they signed Zobrist with the Castro salary dump). Otherwise one might look at it as Chapman for Castro and our #1 minors prospect (Torres) + McKinney/Crawford. Seems pricey for a 2 month rental. We will see if this price tag is that steep in a relative way based on the remaining deadline deals for relievers.
Yep. One of the great things about this team (in addition to being really good at baseball) was the "likable" factor. Feels a bit different now. Who knows...maybe Chapman will be the king of the dance parties.
Here are some possible corresponding minor league moves we might see in the aftermath of the Chapman trade:
SOUTH BEND to MYRTLE BEACH: OF Donnie Dewees and INF Bryant Flete
EUGENE to SOUTH BEND: OF Robert Garcia and INF Vimael Machin
There is really no reason to replace Billy McKinney at Tennessee because both Chris Coghlan and Jorge Soler are doing their rehab at Tennessee.
And there are plenty of pitchers at Iowa. No need to replace Warren at AAA. .

'I want my kids to have a good work ethic... you can achieve anything if you work hard enough:' Victoria Beckham reveals her recipe for success in stunning cover shoot
She has enjoyed a celebrated career as a pop-star, but Victoria Beckham admits she never quite felt at ease alongside her bandmates.
She told Elle magazine: 'When I was on stage with the Spice Girls, I thought people were there to see the other four and not me.
'And when I go out with David and people take pictures I think, "They're here to take David's picture."'
However, she credits her growing confidence to a change of career.
Now a successful and celebrated fashion designer, the multimillionaire businesswoman reveals the secret of her success is quite simply - sheer hard work.
Grafter: Victoria Beckham credits her success as a designer to her work ethic which she said husband David shares in a new interview with Elle Magazine
In a stunning cover shoot spanning twelve pages in Elle Magazine Mrs Beckham said she hopes to pass her work ethic on to her children Brooklyn, 13, Romeo, 10, Cruz, seven, and Harper, one.
She added: 'I don't have to work, I need to work. But I have a good work ethic. David has an incredible work ethic.
'I want my kids to have a good work ethic. I believe you can achieve anything if you work hard enough to get it.'
The former Spice Girl has admitted she is a 'control freak' who finds it hard to trust others...and fears her co-stars and even her husband are more popular than she is.
Victoria, 38, admitted she finds it hard to delegate responsibility while running her Victoria Beckham Collection fashion line.
Green with envy: Victoria also opened up on her insecurities regarding her husband, David, and her role in the Spice Girls
She said: 'You've got to trust people. And because I am a control freak, sometimes that's difficult for me, because I want to micro-manage absolutely everything.
'I can't hand over. But I'm trying to do that more. It's hard because I have such a specific vision.'
Mrs Beckham and her husband David, 37, recently moved their four children back to the UK after he left US football team LA Galaxy last year.
At the premiere of Spice Girls musical Viva Forever! last month, she reportedly sat apart from her former band mates and left the after-party early.

band's reunion at the Olympics closing ceremony last year was also
dogged by rumours she was aloof and reluctant to take part.
But it seems any distance between her and her colleagues was caused by her innate humility rather a sense of superiority.
Yesterday, her spokesman explained her lateness by saying she needed to feed her one-year-old daughter Harper before setting out to the premiere.
It's almost as big as you! Victoria appeared to be struggling somewhat with her giant bag as she headed out in London on Monday morning
Last year, Mrs Beckham admitted juggling her fashion business with motherhood had left her exhausted.
She said: 'I'm not going to lie about it, I'm tired. I'm really tired but I'm also very happy with my life.
'I'm basically just like any woman who's working and has lots of children - it's tough.
'I'm not getting much sleep at all. Harper's not sleeping that great, and I've been taking Skype business calls throughout the night too because of the collections.'

Marija Durlov relished her role as a mother.
She was overjoyed when she found out she was pregnant, even though it meant postponing her marriage to fiancé Rocco Santucci. The couple was happier still when baby Silas arrived 15 months ago.
When Durlov, 27, was rushed to hospital a week ago following a freak medical complication, doctors told them things did not look good.
As she clung to life support, Santucci looked at her family.
"Can I still marry her?" he asked.
So in the midst of their devastation, they held a beautifully tragic wedding on Friday in the ICU of St. Joseph's Hospital. She died the next day.
For the ceremony, Durlov's older sister, Afrodita, cut one of her favourite dresses up the back, placing it carefully over her in the bed. A crown of pink roses — her favourite — was woven through her blonde hair. Lace shawls were made into a veil.
They played their wedding song: Future Days by Pearl Jam.
And in the company of 30 friends and family, Durlov's siblings said "I do" for her.
"She looked like sleeping beauty," Afrodita said, her voice wavering. "This is an … immeasurable loss."
"My sister was a very, very kind and compassionate person. Very gentle. Very diplomatic. Easy to love, easy to talk to. Her sense of humour is legendary … my sister laughed at everything."
They are all struggling to digest the loss.
"It's just a freak tragedy," Afrodita says.
Durlov was at home with their baby when Santucci discovered her suddenly unconscious. She was rushed to hospital where they determined she'd suffered complications from a seizure — something the family says doctors told them they couldn't have predicted.
When she died, Durlov's organs were donated. Doctors told the family that they could go to eight different people, which has given the family comfort.
They hope their loss will inspire others to become donors.
Growing up, Afrodita said the Durlov siblings (four, in total — three girls and a boy) spent all of their time with family, usually outdoors, surrounded by cousins.
Their aunt owned Hairem Salon in Toronto, and the Durlov girls spent summers playing dress-up and doing salon chores, dreaming of opening their own.
And they did. After studying at McMaster University, Durlov and her sisters opened Hairem Salon on Locke Street South, and for a time ran a boutique, Peacock Chic, in Westdale — a boutique Durlov was in the process of re-launching, they say, even as a new mom.
"She was everything an extraordinary mom should be. She loved her son fiercely," close friend Stephanie Yelovich said.
Yelovich, who met Durlov when they were students at Westdale Secondary School, said she always admired her friend's "innate sense of grace and balance."
Afrodita remembers her sister as fiercely independent, always sure of what she wanted.
"She has always been that child who insisted on dressing herself, even at age 4. She was incredibly independent and particular about her style. She had her own flair from a small age," Afrodita says.
This is evident in 15-month-old Silas, too, always dressed to the nines.
"Mare (as she was known to friends and family) lives on in Silas and I know I will be there to remind him of how loving, beautiful, and devoted his mother was," Yelovich said.
Afrodita says they have been overwhelmed by the support they've received from friends and family: "it shows what kind of a person she was."
Everyone, she notes, is in shock.
"God knows my sister doesn't have life insurance. No one thinks about this at that age," Afrodita says.
Durlov leaves behind Santucci and Silas, parents Vasil and Ankica Durlov, sisters, Nata and Afrodita, brother Kote, niece Avadawn Dore.
A visitation will be held Wednesday April 30 from 5 to 9 p.m. at P.X. Dermody Funeral Home, 796 Upper Gage Ave.
A service will follow on Thursday, May 1 at St. Naum of Ohrid Macedonian Orthodox Church, 1150 Stone Church Rd. E., at 1 p.m.
A celebration of life will follow at the Leander Boat Club.
In lieu of flowers, an account has been set up for baby Silas. Donations can be made at any TD Canada Trust branch, account number 2512-6801426.
An online memorial fund has been set up in Durlov's name at YouCaring.com.

We are considering going on our own to Trunk Beach from our cruise...
Should we try to get there in the early AM? Does it get crowded?
How about getting back - are there taxis readily available at that beach? Don't want to be stranded! How long do we need to allow to get back?
It does seem that Trunk Beach is the most recommended for the best snorkling from the posts I've read. Have I missed a better choice? Is it best to stick to one beach given our time constraints?
Thanks for any info for our first snorkling trip to St John's!

We are considering going on our own to Trunk Beach from our cruise...
Report Abuse
Trunk Bay is good for snorkeling and the overlook for Trunk Bay is picture perfect!Yes..it does get crowded..so go in the early am.
When you get off the ferry..get a taxi and tell them that you would like them to pick you up also..give them the time and make sure that you are waiting for them.
Trunk Bay is only about 10 to 15 minutes from the ferry dock.I would allow 20 to 25 minutes to be safe.(I have never taking a cruise before,so I am guessing)
Another good beach on the way to Trunk Bay is Hawksnest beach which has a reef close to shore with good snorkeling..it is one of the first stops on the way to Trunk Bay.
How long do you have on St John before you need to leave for STT?
Report Abuse
1. Yes you should get there as early as possible.
2. There are taxi's readily available at Trunk Bay, so you won't get stranded. That said, you will have to wait for the taxi to fill up. They are really just pick up trucks with bench seats in the back and since the fare is per person, they wait until they get a load. I don't think we ever waited more than 15 minutes, but keep this in mind when calculating your time to make it to the ferry. I would head for the taxi at least 45 minutes before your ferry is to leave. That still only allows for 15 minutes to wait for the taxi, 10-15 minutes to Cruz Bay, and time to purchase your tickets. Maybe I'm overly cautious, but better safe than sorry. As for the time it takes for the ferry and taxi ride, allow another hour. Already shaves a bit of time off your day.
As for pre arranging a taxi in Red Hook on the way back, I'm sure you can, but it's really not necessary. There are loads of taxi's waiting when the ferrys arrive and they are amazingly organized to get you where you are going.

Hi Cristie and brenandg- We dock at 7am and leave at 5:30.
Are the ferries running regularly at 8 or 9?
I like the idea of going first thing to avoid the crowds and to get back to the ship with time to spare. Don't want to be one of the passengers providing the entertainment by running in at the last minute!!!
What about snorkel equipment? Can we rent it there?
Are food and drink sold at the beach?
This definitely sounds doable - we're going to give it a try!
Thanks for the info.

They sell food and drinks there.
Keep in mind, the people that bought excursions through the ship are let out first.
Here's a ferry schedule:

St. John is so worth it!

kwren - Here's a great St. John Beach guide:
If you click on Trunk Bay, you'll see information at the bottom re: facilities (showers, gift shop, snack bar, etc., along with the times they are open).
If you get there early enough (approximately 8:30ish I've heard), you can go in before they start collecting the $4 per person entrance fee.
Also, Trunk has showers, so you can take a quick shower before heading back.
Report Abuse
Oh, and yes... you can rent snorkel gear there.

This is great information everyone! St. John's will be our last stop of the cruise and it's sounding like the best!
Why is it recommended to leave on the Redhook Ferry when the ships dock in Charlotte Amelie and the is a ferry from there as well? Is it the difference in travel time or due to a different reason?
Can you walk to the CA ferry terminal from the ship's dock or does it still entail a taxi ride?
The web sites provided above are wonderful. Thanks so much for including them. I can't wait to show the family.
Report Abuse
People are mentioning Red Hook because that's the most direct (and frequent) ferry route. The trip is 15 or 20 minutes as opposed to perhaps 45 minutes from Charlotte Amalie.
Report Abuse
The time evens out no matter which ferry you take. See vinow.com for the ferry schedules. The Charlotte Amalie ferry has not been running as usual lately and was cancelled altogether for a short while. It also will not leave as early in the morning as you want to. Red Hook is definitely reliable.
Report Abuse
Another option would be to charter a boat out of St Thomas to take you to different snorkel spots on ST John.
Trunk is indeed a beautiful beach, and has all the comforts. But, the snorkeling is average at best there. There are so many other beaches that blow Trunk away for snorkeling. The marked trail is all bleeched out coral. We barely saw any fish there at all.
By doing a charter boat, you could almost eliminate taxis & ferrys all together. If you don't mind spending the extra $$...it might be a less stressful day. My guess is that you can find one that picks you up near the ships....
Report Abuse
If you're coming from a cruise ship in STT, it'll take you about 25 minutes to get from Havensight where the ships dock, to Red Hook where the passenger ferry is. The ferry runs about every hour and takes about 20-25 minutes to get over to STJ. From the ferry, taxis can take you to Trunk which will take about 10-15 minutes. They always take a little stop so that everyone can take pictures of Trunk from the overlook. In total, I'd guess it would take you about an hour and 15 minutes each way, that is if you don't miss a ferry etc. Most of the cruise ships will organize trips to STJ and Trunk. This may be the best way to make sure you don't miss your boat.

The film is in English, no dubbing. The plot was Chinese, American style. If you are a martial arts purist, this isn't your film as gravity is a law easily broken. The drama is so-so. The cinematography was good. The main characters were a bit bland, while the minor ones took on personality. Themes of honor and redemption.
Soft 4 stars.
No swearing, sex, or nudity. Woman is nude from back in low light with some minor side breast shadows.
The story finds Yun-Fat as a warrior who has been trying to avenge his masters death for the past 10 years,and has failed to find the culprit.He wants to turn in his famed Green Dragon sword to his friend in Beijing,Sir Te,and start to concentrate on that that he has neglected for far too long;his love for Yeoh.It is a love that has for the most part been an unspoken one.But now and throughout the film,the two start to work together and reconnect.For once the sword is in Beijing it gets taken by a local thief.While Fat makes his way on his own to Beijing to visit his friend who was given the sword,his lady love Yeoh tries,in the meantime,to get the sword back.She in fact has brief skirmishes with the thief which is traced back to the Governor's mansion.She tries to walk a fine line to get the sword back without disgracing the house of the Governor.
One night a policeman and his daughter who have tracked the thief finally confront her.However she has help.We learn the thief is the Governor's daughter and her aide is the thief's governess who is also the killer of Fat's master 10 years before,called the Jade Fox.Read more ›

Is that tragic then I must have the correct interpretation
I wondered why Ang lee never made a sequel.
The real tragedy of life is that life is for the living.
Secretly, the daugher had learned warrior skills and longed to express this independent aspect of herself ... but she lacks the personal understanding of the esoteric nature of this lifestyle.Read more ›

There is an other solution - use a separate LCD screen to improve the visibility. I have a 5" Sony CLM-V55 so the image is much larger and one can also place the additional monitor freely to match the requirements and circumstances. There are also similar screens with HDMI-interface available from other manafacturers.

TS brought a new addition to my Pacturded list of arguments below.
New Addition.
"Floyd ducked Berto by fighting the winner of Ortiz VS. Berto.
Pacturd arguments below
1. Pac is terrified of needles, but is ok with getting tats.
2. Cotto ducked Pac because he wouldn't accept Pac's shady deal, but Floyd ducked Pac because Pac wouldn't accept Floyd's shady deal.
3. Pac beats Cotto at any weight even thought Pac won't fight him with out a catchweight.
4. Pac is a small 147 pounder, but prefers fighting 140 pounders at 147.
5. Pac is clean because he has never failed a drug test, but Marquez is dirty because he looks musculor even thought he has never failed a drug tests.
6. Pac gets full credit for officially losing to a 140pounder which he made move up at 147, but FLoyd should get no credit for KTFO of a 140pounder that he made to move up to 147.
6. Floyd is a drug addicted even thought Floyd has never used drugs while Manny has admitted in using in the past, but Pac is not the drug addict.
7. Floyd is a dumbbusiness man who can't even pay his taxes, but Pac is a smart businessman for signing with two promotional companies and resigning with Bob while also not paying his fair of taxes.
8. Floyd ducked Berto by fighting the winner of Ortiz VS. Berto..NEW!!

I think Haymon probably advises Floyd not to fight Pacquiao either, probably whispers in his fighters ears and tells them what to say, dude is pretty powerful he even gets a guy with no fanbase like Andre Berto million dollar paydays.

NYK bulk coal carrier resumes direct shipments to earthquake-damaged port of Haramach.
The 90,000 dwt NYK-operated bulk carrier "Haramachimaru" filled with coal has arrived at a dedicated port for a thermal power station operated by Tohoku Electric Power Co. Inc. This was the first arrival of a coal carrier at the berth since the Great East Japan Earthquake last year.
The berth is located in the town of Haramachi, and wharf operations restarted as the power station became operational again. A total of 89,000 tons of coal from Newcastle, Australia, was unloaded from the vessel, Haramachimaru. The area's recovery efforts are expected to greatly benefit from the resumption of the power station and these coal shipments.
NYK will continue its efforts to aid reconstruction of the affected area and help maintain a stable supply of energy resources.

ImpactAlpha.com -- When Nancy Pfund's DBL Partners recently closed its $400 million third fund, ImpactAlpha wrote, "Want to spot the next Tesla? Watch DBL Partners."
In her podcast interview with ImpactAlpha, Pfund discusses new investments from Tanzania (Off Grid Electric) to San Francisco (Advanced Microgrid Solutions). Hint: Advanced Microgrid is the largest customer of Tesla's new PowerPack battery systems.
"I want to give a shout out to all of the clean tech entrepreneurs," Pfund told ImpactAlpha's David Bank. "This field is on fire. Or, maybe that's not a good metaphor. This field is very exciting and growing, and the quality of entrepreneurs in our deal flow compared to the very early days is just night and day. So, it's just a great time to have dry powder."
Pfund stuck with clean tech investments when many others pulled out. In the podcast, she tells the story of Solar City's hair-raising IPO and being pals with Elon Musk ("He's always been a master of the universe in my mind").
"I believe that we are at the tipping point for clean energy," Pfund says. "When quarter-after-quarter you see the majority of new generation capacity coming from renewables, when you see the growth of electric vehicles and traditional car companies coming out with their own models -- this is what the early phase of a transition looks like."
