C.J. Cron, the Angels' top pick (17th overall) in the 2011 Draft, left in the first frame of short-season Orem's 3-2 home victory over Ogden in 11 innings with a knee injury. The cleanup hitter had been on a tear lately with six homers and 17 RBIs in the previous seven games.
Cron later said on Twitter that he had suffered a dislocated kneecap.
Already affected by a torn labrum in his right shoulder, Cron was injured Sunday in the middle of his first at-bat. Normally a first baseman, he has not played the field this season, instead serving as Orem's designated hitter.
With two outs and Jerod Yakubik on third base, Cron hit a foul ball and went down to the ground immediately. According to Ogden broadcaster Brandon Hart, it took seven people to get the 6-foot-4, 235-pound Cron onto a stretcher before he was placed in an ambulance.
The former University of Utah standout was replaced by pinch-hitter Andrew Ray, whose swinging strikeout was credited to Cron.
Cron leads the Pioneer League with 13 homers and 41 RBIs.
The 21-year-old will meet with the team doctor Monday, and Orem's plan of action will be determined based on that examination.
The Owlz scored a run in the bottom of the 11th to end the bittersweet day. Ogden's Matt Shelton (2-1) hit Trevor Hairgrove to open the inning, and Hairgrove advanced on groundouts by Gary Mitchell and Drew Martinez. Brandon Brewer then hit a walk-off single.

There are 12 comments on the Columbus Dispatch story from Jul 8, 2010, titled Analyst: Japanese bank might be interested in stake in Huntington o.... In it, Columbus Dispatch reports that:Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, the Japanese bank looking to buy a stake in a U.S. lender, may consider Ohio's Huntington Bancshares, KeyCorp or Fifth Third Bancorp as potential targets, said Jeff Davis, an analyst at Guggenheim Securities.

Augh, nooo!
These guys are unstoppable! They own the electronic industry and now they are moving into the banks. Their successful economy allows them to buy abroad anything they want.
Why can't we learn from them???

if they buy my bank i wiil change to an american owned bank. it is a pain to change banks but sometimes you have to make a point.

It's a "stake" in the bank, not the whole bank. And Japan's economy is in as bad a shape as ours. They can't afford to buy us all up. Calm down, folks. International investment in America is not necessarily a bad thing.

The US trade deficit for 2008-2009 alone was $1.076 TRILLION dollars. That's money leaving the US to foreign companies, investors, or governments.
Eventually that money makes it back to the US in the form of foreign investment. Unfortunately that means US companies get bought out by foreign companies. Think Anheuser-Busch, CITGO, Frigidaire, Caribou Coffee, Church's Chicken, Trader Joe's, 7-Eleven, Holiday Inn, Dial Soap, T-Mobile, Firestone, etc. All now owned by foreign companies or governments.
#7 Jul 8, 2010
Japanese banks have suffered for decades from carrying overvalued real estate assets on their books that cannot be sold at the values carried.
In response, their government held rates low, and did massive government deficit spending on "public works" and stimulus. Today their economy is in the doldrums, only the national treasury is broke.
Sound familiar?

Well, it's more like v7 by now, but I'm starting fresh. Kinda.
My 2011 theme seems so right to me, and I'm sticking with that gut feeling, leaving it similar, but updating it, tweaking it, making the design better for different devices etc.
Took me most of 2012 to now to complete, it's been ages.

The 2016 Venice Biennale has highlighted that dealing with natural disasters may become one of the main preoccupations of architecture in the future. But nature has its destructive ways, and volcanic eruptions are among the most extreme case in point. On the Island of Fogo (Cape Verde), the Natural Park Venue designed by OTO – and elected Best Building of the Year 2015 by Archdaily readers – was destroyed by molten lava flow only one year after its opening in 2013. The building, which combined a cultural center and administrative activities, helped to activate the economy in the island's most remote area. Following the disaster, Adrian Kasperski, a student at Krakow University, devoted his master's thesis to the redevelopment of this area, by proposing the expansion of the existing roads and hiking trails and designing facilities to improve alternative tourism offerings.
Rising from the Ashes: Krakow University Student Creates Vision for the Volcanic Island of Fogo
Abeer Seikaly's Structural Fabric Shelters Weave Refugees' Lives Back Together
Whether from political unrest or natural disaster, refugee crises around the world seem to fill the headlines of late. These events inspired interdisciplinary designer Abeer Seikaly's conceptual emergency shelter, entitled "Weaving A Home," which received a Lexus Design Award in 2013. The collapsible structural fabric shelter can adapt to various climates, while also providing the comforts of contemporary life such as heat, running water, and electricity.
Barberio Colella ARC Designs Pop-Up Home to Rebuild Nepalese Lives in "Just a Minute"
Disaster can strike a community at any minute. Following the most costly earthquake in their history in April, hundreds of thousands of Nepalese residents were rendered instantly homeless. To help these people reorganize and get back to a familiar way of life, Barberio Colella ARC has designed a temporary structure using local materials "to make a house that can be built quickly, lightweight and compactly, durably and economically."
Media Round-Up: Hurricane Katrina, 10 Years On
Today marks 10 years since Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, setting off what was among the most significant catastrophes to strike the United States in the 21st Century. New Orleans' flood defenses failed, causing the loss of over 1,400 lives and billions of dollars in property damage.
Naturally, such a disaster takes some time to recover from, for individuals but also for a city as a whole, and so for the past decade New Orleans has been a case study for cities to show them how to recover, rebuild and move on - at certain times serving as both an example of good practice and a warning of "what not to do." On the ten-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, here's a round-up of stories about the rebuilding of a city from around the web.
The Architects Foundation Launches Reconstruction Program for Nepal
Responding to the devastation caused by the April 25 earthquake in Nepal, the American Institute of Architects' Architects Foundation has launched a Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Commitment to Action alongside the All Hands Volunteers to execute a replicable $3 million reconstruction plan for the Himalayan nation. Society of Nepalese Architects (SONA), Architects Regional Council Asia (ARCASIA), Department of Small Works (an organization founded by Cameron Sinclair) and local architects will all partake in the program.
5 Architectural Secrets of the Badjao: 21st Century Sea People
Thousands of years ago, a small civilization of hunter gatherers migrated to the coastal regions of Southeast Asia. These people progressed into a widespread tribe of travelling sea dwellers. To this day, they remain a stateless people with no nationality and no consistent infrastructure, sometimes living miles away from land. Yet these people are one of the few civilizations whose collective life practices have survived so long through human history. They are called the Badjao, and they have a surprising amount to teach us about architecture.
RIBA Seeks Architects In The Wake Of The Himalayan Earthquake
Following the devastating earthquake in Nepal this week, the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) have teamed up with the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) to "help to identify Nepalese nationals or others with local or regional experience to provide technical expertise." According to the RIBA, the IFRC "has already deployed approximately 100 people to support the Nepal Red Cross in search and rescue efforts, emergency health, water and sanitation, relief, shelter and inter-agency coordination as well as support services such as telecoms and logistics." They state that "given the operational constraints in the country, most agencies are wary of overloading country teams at this stage. However, the IFRC anticipates there will be a need for additional technical expertise in due course."
Nepal's Historic Architecture Destroyed By Earthquake
Just one of the many tragedies involved in the devastating magnitude 7.8 earthquake that struck Nepal on Saturday - which as of this morning is known to have claimed the lives of over 3,500 people - is its effect on the historic architecture of the region. Home to seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the affected regions of Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur, news outlets from the BBC to The Washington Post are reporting extensive damage to some of the country's most significant monuments.
Archiculture Interviews: Shigeru Ban
"An earthquake doesn't kill people, the collapse of a building kills people." In Arbuckle Industries' latest interview released following their world premiere of Archiculture, architect humanitarian Shigeru Ban clearly delineates "natural" disasters as a product of mankind, rather than nature. Hear the Pritzker laureate's thoughts on designing for minorities, disasters, and the importance of travel in the video interview above.
Architecture for Humanity Announces Completion of Haiti Initiatives
Architecture for Humanity has announced the end of their program in Haiti, effective from January 2015. The charitable organization, which has its headquarters in San Francisco, set up offices in Port-au-Prince in March 2010 in order to better help the people of Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. Through almost five years in Haiti, they have completed nearly 50 projects, including homes, medical clinics, offices, and the 13 buildings in their Haiti School Initiative. Their work has positively affected the lives of over 1 million Haitians, with their schools initiative alone providing education spaces for over 18,000 students.

The Rockefeller Foundation Kicks Off its 100 Resilient Cities Challenge
The Rockefeller Foundation has kicked off its 2014 100 Resilient Cities Challenge, which aims to help "build resilience to the social, economic, and physical challenges that cities face in an increasingly urbanized world." Each of the 100 cities selected will receive funding to hire a Chief Resilience Officer and assistance in developing and implementing a resilience strategy.
"We can't predict the next disruption or catastrophe. But we can control how we respond to these challenges. We can adapt to the shocks and stresses of our world and transform them into opportunities for growth," the 100 Resilient Cities' site reads. While shocks include events like earthquakes, fires and floods, stresses include high unemployment, inefficient public transportation, endemic violence or chronic food and water shortages. The Challenge aims to help cities be better prepared for these adverse events and better able to deliver basic services in both good and bad times to all members of the population.

Is It Time To Abandon the Coastline?
Between Hurricane Sandy in the USA and ongoing storms and floods damaging large areas of Britain, the issues of flood prevention and coastal defense are now a top priority for planners on both sides of the Atlantic. This article in the Guardian asks whether it might be time to give in to the sea and rethink our affinity for coastal living; and this one on Architecture Boston asks to what extent society should be expected to foot the bill for those in high-risk areas, and wonders how, legally, the state could encourage people to live elsewhere.
Rockefeller Foundation Selects 33 Cities for Resiliency Challenge

Resist, Delay, Store, Discharge: OMA's Comprehensive Strategy for Hoboken
OMA's comprehensive strategy to rebuild the New Jersey city of Hoboken, after the devastation of Hurricane Sandy, has been selected as one of ten initiatives moving forward in the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Rebuild by Design competition. The proposal, Resist, Delay, Store, Discharge, focuses on establishing resiliency through the integration of key infrastructural elements that not only protects coastal neighborhoods, but also the entire city of Hoboken.
10 Projects Advance to Rebuild by Design's Final Round
After three months of in-depth analysis and public outreach, the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) has shortlisted 10 design "opportunities" for the third and final round of Rebuild by Design. The design competition, focused on making New York's Sandy-effected regions more resilient, sustainable, and livable, will now have the final project teams collaborate with local and regional stakeholders in developing their projects over the next five months. The goal is to arrive at projects that are implementable and fundable, leveraging the variety of federal recovery investments being made in the region.
OMA, BIG and WXY are just a few practices involved in the final round. Read on to review a glimpse of each shortlisted proposal.

Israeli tanks fired at Syrian army positions in response to
what an Israeli military spokesman described as an
intentional attack. Israel launched more strikes later from
the air and land at nine Syrian army positions, including a
military headquarters, the army said. It confirmed direct
hits on the targets.
The Defence Ministry said the teenager, an Arab citizen of
Israel from a village in the Galilee, had accompanied his
father, one of the ministry's civilian contractors, to the
Golan, and that two other people were wounded in the
Israeli officials initially said the boy, Mohammed Qaraqara,
was 15. Relatives said he was 13. "He was an excellent
student, everyone loved him," his cousin, Salah Qaraqara, 52,
told Reuters.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused the attackers of
indiscriminate killing of Israeli citizens.
"The enemies of the state of Israel use all means, they don't
hesitate to attack civilians and kill children ... they do
not differentiate between Israel's Jewish and non-Jewish
citizens," he said.
A military spokeswoman said an anti-tank missile fired from
Syria across the frontier fence on the Golan had struck the
water tanker in which Qaraqara had been travelling.
"This is the most substantial event that we have had on the
border with Syria since the beginning of the (Syrian civil)
war," a military spokesman said.
Shelling from the Syrian civil war has occasionally spilled
over onto the Golan, including what Israel has said were
deliberate attacks on its troops. Israel captured the western
part of the plateau from Syria in a 1967 war and annexed it
in a move that is not internationally recognised.
While the Syrian army has a presence on the Golan, some areas
are controlled by rebels fighting to topple President Bashar
al-Assad, including al Qaeda-inspired militants hostile to
the Jewish state.
Israel says Hezbollah guerrillas from Lebanon are also
operating, on Assad's behalf, on the Golan. Israeli officials
have voiced concern that Israel will increasingly become a
target during and after the Syrian conflict.
Last March, four Israeli soldiers were wounded in a roadside
bombing along the Golan frontier. Israel responded to that
incident by launching air strikes against Syrian military

Some folks have trouble with default header text that remains, though a custom header image is used.
Here's a solution that worked for me. Not very elegant though:
(1) Go to "dynamic-css.php"
(2) Look for the following section:
} else {
echo '
/*active when header is replaced with custom image */
#header h1, #header h1 a, #header h1 a:visited {
padding-top: 10px;
font-size: 2.3em;
text-align: left;
(3) Change the font size from "2.3em" to "0em"
Hope this helps. Please let me know if you've a better solution!

Hello everyone,
I am running WordPress 4.X Alpha-version on thinkingoftravel.com.
I dont know if it is the nightly build or if it was the fact that I installed "All In One SEO"-plugin on my site, but I do not find Page Builder when creating pages or posts.
I just started to realize what a great plugin Page Builder is and it would be sad to not be able to use it.
Anyone has any ideas? Can really a SEO-plugin damage the page builder installation?
Many thanks in advance!

•Tony Adamo - "What Is Hip"
Thursday, Apr 14, 2011 2:50AM / Press Release
Tony Adamo's video "What Is Hip" brings both old school and new music together as it provides us with an Interesting view of the group Tower of Power performing their original hit "What Is Hip," and showcasing an incredibly impressive rhythm section in the process. Adamo does a great job speaking about the group and explaining the history of 70's music and the Oakland, California groove, and it's obvious that he has much respect for both. The video then segways to scenes of Adamo performing his version of "What Is Hip". It's always great to see today's musicians giving respect to those who came before them, and Adamo is deep in the groove with a new conception of voice n' funk with an infectious slice of soul. This track is a fantastic mid-tempo blending of jazz and funk, keeping you in its grasp from beginning to end. There are no computer tricks here – only real music from real musicians that will make you move to the bass, guitar, piano, trumpet, drums, sax and background vocals. Many props go out to both Tower Of Power and Tony Adamo on this one!

Geneva, May 31 (EFE).- The number of Syrians who have fled their own land to seek refuge in neighboring countries is now more than 1.6 million, the U.N. Refugee Agency said Friday.
At least 3,000 of the new refugees streamed into Lebanon from the city of al-Qusayr, the target of an intense offensive over the past three weeks.
"UNHCR was able to witness the dire humanitarian situation of these displaced families," agency spokesman Dan McNorton said in Geneva.
"Due to the poor sanitation and hygiene conditions in which people were living, many, especially children, were suffering from diarrhea, respiratory problems, high fevers, ear infections and skin diseases," he said of the families who fled al-Qusayr.
The UNHCR spokesman was unable to provide details about the other 100,000 refugees who have crossed the border in the last 15 days.
For its part, the International Organization for Migration said its figures show that some 700 people crossed the border into Jordan in the past few days and have arrived at the Zaatari refugee camp.
The Syrian civil war has entered its 16th month, having left 80,000 dead to date.
Besides the 1.6 million who have fled the country, U.N. agencies estimate the number of internally displaced people at more than 4 million and that one-third of the Syrian population is in need of humanitarian aid.

The Art of Nuit Blanche
- You are a part of it; indulge yourself.
- No one knows what's good, only what has buzz.
- The bigger the group, the less you'll see (and that's okay).
- Preparation helps.
- Don't go downtown until at least midnight.
You are a part of it. Enjoy yourself.
Every year I hear people say that this is the worst year yet, and that nothing was really worth seeing, and etc. The general idea is that one can be disappointed by Nuit Blanche because of the expectation to be moved being confronted by things that did not do so.
Anyone who worked with Hillary and I on Way-Station (North Migration) and subsequently the St. James Circus probably knows that Nuit Blanche exhibits work best when they engage the audience. Involve them, invest in them, let them invest. In the end though, not every piece is made better by participation and interaction. However, as an audience we do have the power to become involved, invest ourselves, and become invested.
This isn't possible for every piece - but the expectation that every work has the responsibility to at least attempt to inspire you is a flawed one. When an artist releases their work, they lose ownership of one of the most important parts of it - interpretation. That becomes our responsibility, to find meaning in what may seem meaningless. The artists and the audience are not two of the most important parts of Nuit Blanche (or you know, art), they are together the most important thing.
Jokes about pretentious self-appointed art critics aside - fuck it! Be pretentious! Laugh a mockingly deep Harvard laugh as you dissect the subtle messages of gender equality through the lens of an athletic male as a dozen mascot costumes fight each other in a football field. It doesn't have to be real, or true, or even correct. It's about actively looking for meaning in something that may be meaningless.
That's art. That's life.
You are an inextricable part of Nuit Blanche, and you have to find your good time. It's not going to be given to you.
No one knows what's good, only what has buzz.
A lot of the reactions I get when asking my friends if they plan to go to Nuit Blanche are, "Do you know anything particularly good happening?"
That's a big cause of that feeling of disappointment I mentioned earlier. The expectation that because something has buzz or sounds interesting that it will be interesting. Art is strange and wonderful and (imho) intensely personal. What touches me may seem incredibly inane and mediocre to you. The idea that our goal is to pick out only the best exhibits from the bad is predicated on the flawed foundation that labels like good and bad apply. They don't.
An example: the huge pool of vodka in Commerce Court back in 2009. It got a full half page in the Nuit Blanche guide, it was listed in almost every list of Must See, and it was interesting - it started dialogues about cultural acceptance of waste, or indulgence, or whatever. You can tell I was very ambivalent about it. I thought it was super lame and left after like, two minutes.
That same year in Parkdale, at 5:00am in the morning, stoned out of my mind and drunker than an Asian drinking whisky, I walked through a cobblestone alley in Parkdale that had been covered coloured coconut shavings, manipulated Zen garden style into something resembling a tapestry. In the end, someone just threw some food colouring in some bulk store coconut and scattered it onto the ground (not to undermine the artist in any way).
I don't think it was even listed in the guide. Someone just did it. But walking through that alleyway brought back memories of my mom and grandmother peeling the insides of coconuts by hand and letting me play with the shells. The colours on the ground reminded me of my grandmother's shawls (cut up sheets, really…). It made me remember and feel something.
The point is, you won't know what's going to be good. You'll know it when you see it. And if that sounds a bit too much like my first point, let me clarify:
Nuit Blanche is about involving people who don't go to galleries, aren't involved in art communities to be able to enjoy it regardless. And a huge part of the quote unquote "art world" is sifting through a thousand pieces, walking through the entire museum to find one thing that speaks to you and makes you stand in wonder that a portrait of a dead woman can enthrall you for half an hour.
For me personally, my best experiences of attending Nuit Blanche are when I try to see everything. Take it all in, be conscious of time - but take my time when my heart tells me to. Because no one can tell you what is good, most of the time you'll know it when you see it. And that's why it's important to cultivate a mindset of exploratory adventurousness, because wonder may come in the wee hours when you take a left instead of a right. Those small discoveries have the potential to pierce you. Don't rob yourself of that opportunity by going to see what everyone else is seeing - you are not everyone else. You are you.
Don't think of Nuit Blanche as a collection of installations with an audience of hundreds of thousands. Nuit Blanche is the exhibit. It's a celebration of art and autumn, of art and artists. The entire city is the installation. The audience is you.
The bigger the group, the slower you'll move.
Now for the practical advice. Thanks for reading this far. This is all logistics stuff.
There is such a thing as too many people. Now, that's only true if you want to see as many things as possible - it's totally legit to just wan to to go out, get drunk with your friends and make fun of a giant blue butthole in the Eaton Centre.
But expect it. The more people there are, the more time lost for bathroom breaks, grabbing a "quick bite" at a food truck with a 20 person line. Even bumping into friends may become frustrating. Even more so when one person really wants to go on the potato sack Super Slide when no one else wants to, but everyone waits for Anthony anyway.
That's a lot of time lost, and if that's okay with you great! But don't expect your group of a dozen people to make it even through one and a half zones.
I always associate Nuit Blanche with my art-partner @HillaryPredko (follow her on twitter! Make her use it!) because 1. two of the best nights/summers in my life are the Nuit Blanche exhibits we did together and 2. we've gotten into the tradition of packing up our adventure bags, getting on our bikes and racing 50km+ across the city to see as much as we can, bumping into friends and improvising routes as we see fit but always ready to flee back into the night, the two of us, unhindered by any social obligation except to see as much as possible.
It also helps that Hillary and I have intensely different tastes, and always able to articulate ourselves in vibrant discussion. Most importantly, Hillary calls bullshit on me constantly. That is why I adore her - she inspires authenticity. Sometimes there is no subtle message about gender equality through the eyes of an athletic male in the fighting mascots exhibit. Cue mockingly deep Harvard laughter.
Preparation helps.
For those who don't want to bike, the TTC offers a special all night pass for $10. Either way, you'll be doing a lot of walking from one exhibit to the other, and getting from one zone to the other. It helps if you have a general idea of the geography of Nuit Blanche.
The city is divided into zones, and I'm going into details here, but figure out where you're starting - and make that starting point at the extreme end of zone. If you're starting in Parkdale, start at the west end of it, walk east/north and suddenly you're at the border of another zone.
Don't start downtown, go west, then go east. I guarantee you you won't even get out of downtown. Which leads into my next point.
Seriously. Look at this!
The time you'll spend waiting in lines to see things will take about as long as exploring a non-Downtown zone first. Stay away from City Hall, the Financial District, Yonge-Dundas Sq, etc. Those exhibits are worth seeing! But by midnight - or even better, 4 in the morning, as a last stop - these crowds will have dispersed, but there are still hundreds of people to make it feel lively. By 6am it's almost abandoned, and you can walk through the open door that has replaced that hour and a half long line.
So that's it! That's my take on Nuit Blanche. This is also the first "piece" I've written I've felt comfortable publishing, so any feed back is greatly appreciated. You can shoot me an email at anth (dot) swan (at) gmail (dot com, or tweet me @swanthonyswan!
Also, I totally lied. I used spell check.
One last optional thing: Pack well.
Notebook with pen, bike helmet, adventure kit (swiss army knife, maglite, zigzags, moisturizer, antihistamines, antinauseants, tylenol, bandaids, chapstick, lighter, matches, capo, etc), tissues, cigarettes, gum, zippo, watch, bike lock, flash of Jim Beam Bourbon, tuna pasta salad, eighteen tofu and mushroom spring rolls, honey and cinnamon roasted almonds, soy sauce, 2 litres of water in hydration pack.

Low success rates and uncertainty meaning that cloning is a very expensive process and the process attempts is a failure most of the times
Susceptibility to diseases meaning that since the immune system is not strong enough to protect the body, the infection rate is very high. When having a disease, the disease goes directly to the offspring
Losing gene diversity meaning that the genetic diversity in different individuals helps them to survive diseases.
Ethical issues meaning that there a lot of ethical consideration that would cause protests. Cloning is considered unnatural so the people consider it as a ethical concern

Hi everyone, hi Photocrati,
When I upload new photos in any gallery, the Date/Time shown in the gallery list is not the Date/Time from the meta data but is the Date/Time of the day I upload photos to the NGG gallery...
A few weeks ago there has been a bug in the early 2.0 versions that set the year to 1970, it has been fixed (I don't find the thread that talked about it), but something is back with version 2.0.33 (tested with WP 3.7.1 and WP 3.6.1).
It is like NGG doesn't correctly read the EXIF DateTimeOriginal tag anymore when uploading new photos or when updating meta datas... By the way, the Show meta data window shows all correct meta datas (EXIF, IPTC and even some XMP)!
Is it a bug, a regression, a mis-configuration that I coud do? Any ideas?

While the Wiregrass didn't see any snowfall, parts of North-Central Alabama did see some snow.
One community that did receive a little bit of the wintry precipitation was Hueytown, a community to the south and west of Birmingham. A picture from Marc Finocchio shows a light dusting of snow in that area. However, he said it ended quickly.
Molly McCarrick said she saw some flurries while driving between Hoover and Birmingham, but they also ended quickly.
However, other Hueytown residents didn't see any at all. Amanda Johnston said, "We haven't gotten even a bit. It is incredibly cold, very windy, and there does seem to be a layer of ice over things."
Despite the small amounts of snow some parts of that area saw, they will see very cold air over the next couple of days.

Red Sox Beat Yankees, Approach Lead in American League East
The Boston Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees 6-4 to open a three-game series that will decide the leader in Major League Baseball's American League East division.
The Yankees and the Red Sox hold the top two places in the five-team AL East with 33-25 and 34-26 records respectively.
The Red Sox, who opened the season with six straight losses, got their fourth win in a row with the victory last night at Yankee Stadium. New York began a 10-game homestand with its fourth loss in 10 games.
Jacoby Ellsbury hit a home run and Adrian Gonzalez had a run-scoring triple and scored on Kevin Youkilis's sacrifice fly to give the Red Sox a 3-0 lead in the first inning before Robinson Cano's run-scoring single made it 3-1.
Dustin Pedroia drove in a run with a double in the second for the Red Sox and David Ortiz hit a two-run home run in the fifth, his 14th of the season, for a 6-1 Boston lead.
A Nick Swisher double in the fifth drove in Jorge Posada and Russell Martin to make it 6-3 before Posada singled to score Brett Gardner in the ninth.
Jon Lester allowed eight hits and three runs and struck out five in six innings to improve his record to 8-2 for the season.
Jonathan Papelbon, pitching while he appeals his three-game suspension for making contact with an umpire on June 4, earned his 12th save this season and 200th for his career by pitching the ninth inning.
Short Stint
New York replaced Freddy Garcia (4-5) after he surrendered four hits and four runs in 1 2/3 innings.
"I can't get anybody out, and I didn't have the chance to make adjustments," Garcia said of his brief stint on the mound.
Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter had two hits to move within 12 of 3,000.
Posada replaced Mark Teixeira, who left the game in the bottom of the first after he was hit in the right knee by a Lester pitch. The team said he sustained a deep knee bruise.
"I've never seen him show that much pain before," Yankees manager Joe Girardi told reporters. "He's tough. You know, he's played with a broken toe, he's played with a lot of ailments, but he was in a lot of pain, and it was scary."
The series continues tonight and concludes tomorrow.

Nepal's ruling Maoists on Thursday proposed that the chief justice be appointed prime minister and preside over parliamentary elections, calling it the only option to resolve a long-running political crisis.
The proposal was made by party chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, known by his nom de guerre Prachanda, at the Maoists' largest meeting since they toppled the monarchy in 2006 after a decade-long civil war and then took power in elections.
"In the meeting, chairman Prachanda proposed forming a government led by the chief justice of the supreme court," party spokesman Agni Sapkota told reporters.
"The proposed administration will hold the elections for Constituent Assembly. His proposal was approved by the delegates."
In-fighting, including a split in the party last year, has confounded efforts to draw up a post-war constitution spelling out how Nepal should be run as a modern, democratic republic.
An interim assembly elected for the task was dissolved in May last year and elections promised for November were shelved amid quarrelling among the main parties over who should lead a national unity government into the vote.
The Maoists now lead Nepal as the major partner in a fragile caretaker coalition that is carrying out the most essential tasks of government but has no popular mandate to make fundamental policy decisions.
Inaugurating the convention on Saturday, Dahal had said the Maoists would step down from the government and offered to give up leadership to an independent prime minister.
"We know that the constitution doesn't have a provision whereby a chief judge can lead such a government. But we are sure that the opposition parties will agree on this," Sapkota said.
"If this doesn't work, there's no other option. This is the last option. The opposition parties should come up with a better alternative. If there's none, we will launch a nationwide movement to sensitise people about the issue.
The introduction of a republican constitution and elections were key conditions of a deal that ended the civil war in which more than 16,000 died.
But the transition to democracy has been beset by the ethnic, caste, religious and ideological differences that have made agreement among the country's powerbrokers impossible.
While the Maoists want the creation of up to 14 states named after ethnic groups, their rivals say the plan would fuel unrest.
The convention in the southern industrial town of Hetauda is due to wrap up on Thursday night having gone a day over schedule.

Publisher's Description
Like a wife unfaithful to her husband so Israel was unfaithful to the LORD. This is vividly illustrated in the book of Hosea where Hosea's own marriage represents Israel's relationship with the LORD.
In worldly terms it appears that life is going well for God's people. The Northern Kingdom had been going through a time of great economic stability and security. However this does not lead the people of Israel to give thanks to the Lord who is the provider of such blessings but rather they fall straight into the arms of the heathen idol Baal. Despite their unfaithfulness, the Lord does not give up on them, but rather he speaks to them in grace and mercy. Through the use of metaphors, Hosea brings an uncomfortable yet vital message to warn them of impending judgment if they do not return to Yahweh, the one true God. Hosea shows that God's constant love and perfect judgment, when put together, restores his relationship with his people. This prophecy is a book of hope for us today because it reminds us of God's unfailing and faithful love for his people down through the ages even when they fail and fall so badly. Here is grace indeed!
Author Bio
Editorial Reviews
"It combines first rate scholarship with warm evangelical exposition. It is clear, concise, well researched, and written from a pastoral and practical perspective."
"Professor Mackay makes the prophet speak afresh to us. Of help to all serious readers of the Bible, this book brings out the timeless significance of the ancient prophet, and is a welcome addition to the literature on Hosea."
"John L. Mackay's Mentor commentary on Hosea is a rare thing: a commentary that is both scholarly and readable. The engagement with the text is thorough without ever getting over-complicated while the prose is consistently clear and vibrant. Even though all the questions you want addressed are addressed, you never feel like you are loosing sight of the big picture."

Warren Haynes: A Rocker Gets Some 'Me' Time
Live Performance
Hear Warren Haynes perform a song from 'Man in Motion' live in NPR's New York studio.
River's Gonna Rise
Warren Haynes is one of Rolling Stone's 25 greatest guitarists of all time. He's played with The Allman Brothers Band, The Dead and his own group, Gov't Mule. This month, Haynes releases his first solo album in 19 years, titled Man in Motion. He tells Weekend Edition Sunday host Liane Hansen that, in the nearly two decades since his last solo outing, Gov't Mule has commanded most of his attention.
"That's kind of my laboratory to do whatever I want to do," he says. "I feel like Gov't Mule is going to be recording and touring for years to come, when The Allman Brothers decide to stop, and when The Dead decide to stop. So solo records are kind of on the back burner."
Man in Motion includes plenty of new songs, but also some old ones that never found their way onto recordings — like "Real Lonely Night," written 20 years ago.
"I love that song, and I tried it a bunch of different ways — Gov't Mule even demoed it," Haynes says. "But it never seemed to want to fit into The Allman Brothers or Gov't Mule song-wise, and I didn't want to force it, so I've been sitting on it for a long time."
Haynes says that, after waiting so long to work on a new solo recording, it was important to him not to overthink the process.
"We did it in about six days, he says. "We didn't want to dwell on trying to achieve anything remotely related to perfection. It was about capturing emotion, which is what this music is about."
